Chapter 33 Don't Die Here

For a moment, he didn't know whether he should ask Li Mo what the meaning of this strange operation was.

After swallowing the tissue, Li Mo still had the familiar biting sound in his throat. He smiled and seemed to have no ill intentions.

Yin Xiu stared at him in confusion. He slowly bent down and moved closer to Yin Xiu, whispering in his ear, "Rule Two of Tomb Town: There are no female ghosts in this town. If you accidentally see a woman in white in this town, please avoid her sight and avoid her voice. If she pesters you, please seek help from other townspeople."

Yin Xiu:?

The slightly cool air sprayed on his earlobe, making him confused and unable to concentrate. He had no idea why this person was reciting the rules to him for no reason.

"Tomb Town Rule Five: Outsiders are allowed to observe the sacrificial ceremony, but they are absolutely forbidden to violate the first and second rules."

Yin Xiu: ...

He realized in an instant that the white fog that almost massacred most of the players during the day actually violated Rule 2!

After the white mist rose, if someone screamed out the existence of the woman, it would be a violation of the rules.

The rules only stated how to deal with the situation, and the punishment came immediately, so Yin Xiu instinctively thought that this rule ended there, but he forgot that the fifth rule was still connected.

The reason why he could become a sacrifice was that the incident during the day made all the players outsiders who violated the rules.

Seeing Yin Xiu lost in thought, Li Mo smiled and continued, "Rule Four: The town must remain welcoming to outsiders, but if they break the rules, please show no mercy."

Yin Xiu realized that as long as they had become outsiders who had violated the rules, every rule was against them.

"So this is the problem..." Yin Xiu muttered, feeling that his mind had opened up a little.

As soon as he was distracted, Li Mo's bent body slowly pressed down, pressing Yin Xiu heavily against the door panel.

The chill seeped through his clothes, as if clinging invisibly to his skin. Yin Xiu shivered. Faced with Li Mo's sudden proximity, he didn't know whether he should draw his sword or not. After all, the other party had no ill will towards him... and was even reminding him.

"Don't die here." He leaned close to Yin Xiu's ear and said in a low voice, his cold cheek pressed against his neck, and his fragile and sensitive vital part was exposed to the danger. Yin Xiu instinctively wanted to resist, but Li Mo seemed to be proving that he had no ill will towards him. He leaned close to Yin Xiu and rubbed his neck.

Yin Xiu shivered at the cold touch like a snake sliding across his skin. He couldn't resist the urge to draw his sword. "Can you let me in?"

Li Mo smiled and reached out to open the door behind Yin Xiu.

The weight of the two people against the door instantly tilted backwards, causing Yin Xiu to lose his balance and stumble backwards. He was almost knocked to the ground by Li Mo, but he managed to keep his balance.

After the door opened, Zhong Mu and the little girl were sitting opposite each other in the room, staring at them blankly.

"Brother...why are you holding him?" The little girl pointed at the two of them.

Li Mo's entire body weight pressed down on him, and Yin Xiu had to hold on to him in order to avoid falling. It looked like he was trying hard to hold Li Mo.

"No." Yin Xiu quickly let go and dodged by turning sideways.

As soon as he let go, Li Mo stood back straight with a calm expression.

The little girl looked between the two of them with a puzzled look, then immediately jumped off the bed and ran over, clinging to Yin Xiu's legs. "I want a hug, too."

Li Mo smiled and stared at the little girl.

The little girl timidly hugged Yin Xiu's thighs, staring at Li Mo and refusing to let go, "I want my brother to hug me..."

Yin Xiu ignored their open and secret fighting and turned to look at Zhong Mu in the room, "Why are you in my room?"

Zhong Mu scratched his head and stood up from the bed. "The other players saw you participating in the sacrifice ceremony just now. In order to speed up the progress, everyone gathered together to study the dungeon rules. It's not that we are all unpopular, and no one wants to join us, so I came to meet with you alone to discuss it."

To be honest, before Yin Xiu came back, he was really scared to live in the same room with two weird monsters.

Fortunately, Li Mo left the room as soon as Yin Xiu came back. The little girl played with her doll obediently and was not as scary as she was in the previous three days.

"That's perfect. I also have some things I want to sort out." Yin Xiu nodded, turned around and closed the door. He dragged the little girl hanging on his leg and strode to the table in the room. He looked at Zhong Mu and asked, "Do you still have a note from your mother?"

"Yes, yes, yes. I really can't remember so many rules. It's easy for something to get into trouble if I don't carry it with me, so I kept the note." Zhong Mu hurriedly took out the note from his pocket. Just as he was about to hand it to Yin Xiu, he glanced cautiously at the little girl next to him.

Yin Xiu bent down and carried the little girl to the bed, saying, "Be good and sit here. I'll ask you something later."

"Oh." The little girl sat there obediently, holding the doll, very honest.

Only then did Zhong Mu feel at ease and handed the rule note to Yin Xiu.

Yin Xiu unfolded the slip of paper and placed it on the table. He stared at it and began to sort it out. "There are currently six known rules for the dungeon: dungeon survival rules, dungeon clearance rules, my mother's two slips of paper, the tomb town rules, and this house rules."

"The copy rules are what restrict players, and players must abide by them.

"The mother's note was given to the little girl by her mother. The little girl must obey it, but it doesn't apply to players. However, if the little girl breaks the rules of the note, the player will also die due to the dungeon rules. After all, the player's rules include a rule to help the little girl complete the note.

"The rules of Tomb Town are that the town restricts the townspeople from entering and leaving the town. Outsiders include players, the little girl, and her mother."

Zhong Mu was stunned, and glanced at the little girl beside the bed. "The little girl is also an outsider?"

"That's right, because little girls are not considered as residents here."

Zhong Mu frowned, "But she will also turn into a monster, just like the townspeople here."

Yin Xiu took out the paper and pen he had brought from the little girl's room from his pocket and listed the rules of the tomb town and the rules of the current house.

"I've spoken to the mayor. One of the rules of Tomb Town is that children can't touch the altar at night, or they'll be cursed and turn into monsters." Yin Xiu turned back to look at the little girl beside the bed. "So you touched the altar in the square one night before, right?"

The little girl was taken aback when her name was suddenly called. She pinched the rabbit in her arms and stammered, "Um... I touched it..."

Zhong Mu was thoughtful, "So the little girl was a human before..."

"That's right. Outsiders who break the rules will be hunted down by the townspeople. That's why her mother hid her in a house outside the town to prevent her from being discovered. And now, we players are also outsiders who have broken the rules."

Yin Xiu told Zhong Mu what he had just discovered outside the door, and then pointed to the rules for passing the copy.

Rule 2 for passing the copy: Let the little girl complete all the rules on her mother's note.

His fingers moved to his mother's second note.

Mom's Note Rule Four: Leave town at night.

Finally he pointed to the rules of the cemetery town.

Rule Six of Tomb Town: Do not let outsiders who accidentally violate the rules leave alive.

After staring at the three rules in deep thought for a long time, Zhong Mu slowly said, "If we follow Mom's rules and let the little girl leave the town, will she die?"

Yin Xiu nodded, and the little girl beside the bed turned pale instantly.

After scanning all the rules, Zhong Mu suddenly realized something and pointed to the first rule for passing the copy.

"Rule one of clearing the dungeon is to leave the monster's body on the town's altar. Are you referring to the little girl's body?!"

The little girl beside her shuddered and her face turned pale.
