Chapter 179 One Less Rooster Crow



【Rule Sequence 1】

[1: Tuobei Village does not open its doors to welcome guests after 9pm every night. If someone knocks on the door at night, please identify the person.]

[2: After midnight, candles and oil lamps must be extinguished, otherwise they will attract the attention of "it". ]

[3: If you see a paper figure with eyes painted on it, you must not ignore it, but immediately throw it into the river at the west end of the village.]

[4: You must serve every customer who enters your store and never slack off.]

[5: The dogs in the village know the scent of every villager and only bark at strangers.]

[6: The chickens in the yard will crow three times every morning. If there is one less or one more, you must burn paper money to the "Land God" immediately at 12 noon that day.]

[7: Your younger brother Xiaoxin is in Class 2, Grade 4. Please send him to the correct class, otherwise the one who comes home after school may not be your brother.]

[8: Villager Li Tiezhu only goes crazy occasionally. When he is not crazy, he can be trusted.]

Chi Mu was eating dinner while reading Rule Sequence One.

As he watched, his body froze, cold sweat broke out on his back, and he shivered all over.

"Damn, this weird talk is definitely a ghost story!"

These rules are more terrifying than the other, and Chi Mu got goose bumps all over his body.

Then, a reminder sound of a strange story appeared in my mind.

[Ding! The host has obtained new rules. ]

[System function triggered, now marking an error rule for the host. ]

Then, the font of Rule 7 gradually turned red.

Chi Mu was pleasantly surprised. He didn't expect that the system had returned to normal and marked the wrong rules for him!

Chi Mu guessed that this was a normal ghost story copy, not the previous ghost story prison garden.

There is no malfunction in the system now, perhaps because it is far away from "unspeakable", so the impact is relatively small.

In order to ensure that the system remains normal, we must find as many clues about the "unspeakable" as possible in this strange copy.

Without time to think, Chi Mu looked at the wrong rule 7.

This rule is about younger brothers.

If it is wrong, what is wrong?

Chi Mu frowned and stared at Rule 7 carefully.

[7: Your younger brother Xiaoxin is in Class 2, Grade 4. Please send him to the correct class, otherwise the one who comes home after school may not be your brother.]

After observing for a while, Chi Mu guessed that his brother was in the wrong class.

He is not in Class 2 at all.

"If I send my brother to the wrong class, it's not my brother who comes back, but 'it'..."

Chi Mu murmured.

He planned to find out which class his younger brother was in after waking up tomorrow morning.

If you send him to the wrong class, the one who comes back won’t be your brother!

Chi Mu glanced at the tattered clock hanging on the wall and found that it was already past ten o'clock.

"All lighting must be turned off at twelve o'clock..."

Chi Mu hurried to eat. There was still more than an hour left until the midnight mentioned in the rules. Fortunately, there was still plenty of time.

After dinner, Chi Mu washed the dishes and then returned to his room.

My younger brother Xiaoxin has fallen asleep. He is shirtless and only wears a pair of shorts. His sleeping posture is hilarious.

Chi Mu smiled bitterly, covered Xiao Xin with a blanket, and then started searching the room.

He knew it was impossible to find new rules here, after all, he had just got the rules.

Chi Mu planned to search every new place in this ghost story copy, in order to find the "unspeakable" clues.

There were few things in the room, and Chi Mu quickly searched the entire room but found no clues.

He sighed, turned off the oil lamp, and lay down on the bed to rest.

After turning off the lights, the only light in the room was the moonlight shining in from the window. Chi Mu rested his head on his arms and began to think about what he would do tomorrow.

He has a small shop in the village that he has to run every day, and he has to find a task to pass the level as soon as possible.

From the known rule sequence one, we know that 'it' exists in the village.

It is necessary to avoid being noticed by 'it' as much as possible.

——"No, this ghost story is too scary. I have to watch In the Garden Babies to calm down."

——"Look at how brave you are. You're so scared before the ghost even appears?!"

——"Hey, the guy upstairs, the only thing that's tough on you is your mouth, right? You were so scared that you peed on my head..."

.......

Chi Mu didn't sleep well that night, and he could hear dogs barking in the village from time to time.

The little black dog tied in his yard also barked a few times.

[5: The dogs in the village know the scent of every villager and only bark at strangers.]

According to this rule, Chi Mu realized that there were definitely strangers walking around in the village at night.

This caused the dogs to bark.

At six o'clock in the morning, the chickens in the yard crowed on time.

Only called twice.

Chi Mu was shocked and immediately thought of Rule 6.

[6: The chickens in the yard will crow three times every morning. If there is one less or one more, you must burn paper money to the "Land God" immediately at 12 noon that day.]

"It's only the first day and you've already stopped yelling. Are you going to let me live?!"

Chi Mu rubbed his eyes and sat up from the bed. Xiao Xin was still sleeping soundly. Chi Mu carefully got off the kang.

When I arrived at the front room, I found that my father had already gotten up and was chopping wood in the yard. He also placed the prey he had hunted the day before in front of the door.

It was still gray and light.

"Father, let me do it."

Chi Mu took the axe from his father and started chopping wood.

Ten minutes later, Chi Mu wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at his father.

"Well, I'm not home today, so chop less firewood. It's enough."

Dad said this, then tied up the pheasant and rabbit with ropes, opened the door and prepared to go out.

Chi Mu hurriedly caught up with his father and sent him to the village entrance.

Before leaving, his father looked at Chi Mu deeply and said, "Xiao Mu, when I'm not around, you must take good care of your brother and your mother."

Speaking of Shin-chan, Chi Mu suddenly realized that the information about Shin-chan's class was wrong.

He quickly asked, "By the way, Dad, what class is Xiaoxin in at school?"

"Shift Three."

After saying that, my father left with the prey on his back and walked towards another village.

Chi Mu smiled, as expected his brother was in the wrong class.

Shin-chan is in Class Three, not Class Two!

——"Oh my god, right from the start, Mu Shen suspected that Rule 7 was wrong!"

——"This time, the Chosen Ones from other countries have become more careful. They have also asked their father about the class that Xiaoxin is in."

——"Sure enough, during the time that Chi Mu was in the Ghost Story Prison Garden, people from many countries have studied ghost stories and have become more cautious."
