Chapter 36: Strange Talk on True and False Rules

"Strange Talk about Rules." Qiang Hanan took out a notebook.

He began to write down the known rules in the notebook, "Have you played or know the rules of Weird Talk before?"

Everyone present was young, so naturally they had heard of or played it.

"I think these rules should be correct. We are here to cooperate, so it is impossible for us to die."

Qiang Hanan wrote down all the rules one by one, put them on paper and began to think.

"First, the farmer is supreme. This means that here, on this farm, the farmer is absolutely invincible." Qiang Hanan gave his own judgment.

Sun Qi's brain connected to this circuit, "Ah, it is inviolable. What can be defined as an invasion? Attacks, insults, etc. are all considered a form of invasion, and inviolability means that these behaviors will not occur."

"Yes, or in other words, anyone who violates it must die, so there is something inviolable. How can a dead person be violated?" Fang Chuan Ning, the only blond-haired person present, agreed.

Qiang Hanan rubbed his kiwi head and said, "The second rule means that there can't be more than six people in the room. What will happen if there are six more people?"

When this question was asked, no one else had any ideas, so they could only read on.

Yan Su, who had not expressed his opinion until now, put forward his own idea, "Look, the third, fourth, and fifth rules are continuous and related."

"The fourth rule is about not returning before the specified time, and the fifth rule is about going out within the time limit."

Yan Su took a pen and began to analyze, "If I fail to return on time, I will need to pretend to be a plant on the farm and ask the guards for help. Does this mean that something will appear on the farm after ten o'clock?"

"And these things will cause some harm to visitors. Otherwise, there would be no need to ask for help. But why pretend that they are plants on a farm? Plants are plants. The word 'farm' was specifically added. Does this mean that the plants on the farm are different from the plants outside?"

Liu Yu raised his hand and said, "Look at Article 7. It says we're not allowed to talk to the backyard, which includes the plants. But Article 6 says that the plants on the farm can't talk. Isn't that contradictory?"

"The only thing we can be sure of is that something else will appear on this farm between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. the next day. Also, there are mushrooms on this farm; they are guards, and we can ask them for help."

Qiang Hanan summarized what they had deduced and continued to read the rules.

"Hiss, I don't think six or seven are contradictory." Fang Chuan Ning said with a frown.

"Ah, why? Didn't they say that plants can't talk? And Chapter 7 also says not to talk to the plants in the backyard. Doesn't this mean that plants can talk?" Sun Qi was puzzled.

"Does the rule say that the backyard is a farm?" Fang Chuan Ning's question stumped everyone present.

"The backyard, where the farmer lives, can't it be a farm?" Liu Yu wondered.

"Six said that farm plants can't talk and gave the qualifier "farm". Four and five also gave a qualifier for the avoidance method, camouflaging farm plants." Fang Chuan Ning drew two circles.

"But look, what does Article 7 say? The backyard. It doesn't have a qualifier saying it's the backyard of the farm. If the backyard doesn't belong to the farm, then Articles 6 and 7 are not contradictory." Fang Chuan Ning tapped the notebook.

"Ah, just because the plants on the farm can't talk doesn't mean the plants outside the farm can't talk. Now all the alien species outside can't scream." Liu Yu reacted.

"If that's the case, we can infer that the plants, buildings, and animals in the backyard can all speak." Qiang Hanan wrote down next to the seventh point.

"Then the eighth point is easy to understand. Those plants beyond our cognition come from the backyard. Combined with the previous speculation, some things will appear at night. Are they referring to these things in the backyard?" Sun Qi said.

Qiang Hanan wrote down his last point and went over it in his mind.

"So this rule actually tells us that the owner of this farm will kill anyone who provokes him."

"The house we live in on this farm is an absolutely safe place, but it's hard to say about other places."

"Backyard animals don't eat plants on the farm, so if you encounter a talking plant on the farm, you should pretend to be a plant on the farm and stay still and silent."

"The farm may have arranged mushroom guards to patrol the farm at night to prevent these strange plants from eating the farm plants."

"How to tell if a plant is a backyard plant is when it grows something beyond your comprehension and when it can speak."

"Combined with the farmer's answer, if we start talking to the things in the backyard, we might become food, or we might become the same thing..."

Qiang Hanan looked at the others and whispered, "After all, it can speak human language. If it's a plant-transformed species and doesn't fuse with a human, it won't be able to speak."

This sentence made them silent. They had seen people who were devoured by alien species and then merged into one with the alien species.

They no longer have their own thoughts, but they can still utter a few words.

For example, the temptation of "Help, save me" was encountered by them during their first mission.

Attract people to rescue, and then kill them to replenish yourself.

"Then tell me, where does the food we buy come from?" Fang Chuan Ning suddenly said.

"The front yard stretches as far as the eye can see, and there's no extra vegetation at all. Those pig legs can't possibly be growing on trees. Could they be... from those weird things in the backyard?"

Fang Chuan Ning's words silenced everyone present, and it was Qiang Han'an who spoke again.

"Everything has been inspected, and there's nothing wrong. So, no matter where these things come from, the important thing is that they don't kill you."

Qiang Hanan was right. They couldn't even afford to eat, yet they were still being picky.

After their analysis, they scared themselves.

In fact, this was just a rule written casually by the judge. The first one was to tell them not to attack him on the farm.

The second one is also very simple, what happens if there are more than six people in a room?

Of course, the extra people have no beds to sleep on!

If people strictly follow the bed rules, they can book one more room and earn an extra two hundred.

The next few points are very simple. Just don’t run around at night.

It would be bad if you ran to the backyard and saw pig legs, and got scared, which would easily affect your reputation.

The eighth is also very simple. If someone in Shenjing hears you cursing in the street, it will easily lead to conflicts.

So just don't let them go out and don't let them think that this is abnormal.

Si Shen felt that the rules he wrote were very well written and that their farm would definitely gain a good reputation.

But he didn't expect that the farm's reputation did spread, but it seemed to be completely different from what he had imagined.

Unfortunately, the judges were unaware that their rules were being over-interpreted, and they all believed them.

He was now imagining what would grow in this absurd botanical garden today.

The judge closed his eyes and fantasized, and colorful fantasies floated out like a movie.

Nian Chengxiao looked at the person in the middle with fascination. He really wanted to go up and hug him, but he couldn't, at least not now.

The plant next to the judge stretched out a strand and accurately found a fantasy that it thought was delicious.

Sensing that his fantasy was being eaten away, the judge opened his eyes.

Then he saw Nian Chengxiao like a big dog. When he saw him wake up, he came up to him and held hands with him.

Si Shen leaned on the Niancheng Owl with a smile on his face, looking at the alien with a grin.

The plant was focused and refused to accept their dog food. It worked hard and finally grew into the fantasy of today's trial.
