"It followed us into the woods, but it didn't take long before it disappeared!"
Gu Shi Yi wasn't very worried. Plant Spirits were naturally close to the earth, and once they entered the mountains, they weren't easily caught by just anyone. She used the Firewood Knife to skin the rabbit, removed the innards, skewered it with a branch, and set it above the fire. She had just finished these tasks when Big Boss returned.
"Gu Shi Yi, Gu Shi Yi..."
Big Boss flew back beside the fire,
"Gu Shi Yi, I found the nest of the Thousand-Eyed Centipede..."
"Oh..."
On hearing this, Gu Shi Yi became attentive,
"Where is it, how many are there?"
Big Boss pointed in the direction of the woods,
"It's just about three miles ahead, there's a large burial mound there, don't know how many years old, it's empty inside, and those Thousand-Eyed Centipedes live in there..."
Live inside a burial mound?
Gu Shi Yi turned to look at Pu Yanlan,
"Didn't the map say they live in this valley?"
