Don't follow the rules

Chapter 132 Lu Jiachong ([-])

Before he finished speaking, Chunyu stepped forward and pulled Ning Yao away to block him behind him.

Lu Tuo quickly raised his hands to show that he had no ill intentions, and then continued to add with a smile: "Please understand, if we are not in the same camp, it will be difficult for both of us to trust each other, right?"

Chunyu snorted coldly: "In other words, we must accept this petition?"

Lu Tuo still smiled in a flattering manner, but his tone did not allow for rejection: "Otherwise, we really wouldn't be able to let you two leave the village."

Ning Yao's head popped up from behind Chunyu: "Um...are you going to kill me now if you surrender?"

"Ah?" This time it was Lu Tuo and the village chief's turn to be stunned.

Ning Yao untied Clever No. [-] from his back, laid it down on the ground, and generously called everyone to come forward to check: "This is our teammate who was just killed by me. Although it is not an instant kill, it is still quite fresh. Yes. You can check whatever you want, but we have to take the body back for burial."

The village head and Lu Tuo looked at each other, and commanded a brave villager from a distance to go forward to check the neck veins of Smart No. [-], and found that he was indeed dead.

Really dead?

Although they noticed the child on Ning Yao's back early on, they only thought it was a coma or injury, but they didn't expect it to be a dead teammate.

The family members don't understand, this guy is actually carrying a dead body around and showing off with a smile on his face that looks harmless to humans and animals, what a pervert.

The village chief and Lu Tuo silently exchanged glances, and secretly stamped Ning Yao as "abnormal".

Ning Yao smiled and bundled Smart No. [-] up again: "How about it, is this a sincere declaration of submission?"

Lu Tuo squeezed out a smiling face: "Well, this can only prove that you collected the child's body, it's not a murder..."

Ning Yao said "Oh" and rolled his eyes: "Then if I stab him again, can you take photos at the scene and use them as 'evidence of murder'? Or isn't Lu An dead? You collectively framed him as the two of us." Okay, I have no objection."

Lu Tuo was really surprised by Ning Yao's "suggestion", and it took him a long time to recover his normal expression, with a polite smile on his face: "Master, what are you talking about? Of course, we believe in the way the master is. Now that the master has admitted these two cases, everyone is one of our own."

Two piles?Ning Yao blinked, and his brain buffered for a second.

Damn, they really blamed Lu An's death on themselves.

But it doesn't matter, Ning Yao doesn't think it is framed, after all, he was going to eat Lu An, but he was accidentally snatched first.

Following Chunyu's habit, he took out a small notebook: "Since we are on our own, we should have a more in-depth conversation next time. The more detailed and specific the clues you give, the more it will help us quickly find the solution." The devil's way."

Lu Tuo turned back to ask the village chief for instructions again. The village chief narrowed his eyes and waved slowly. The other villagers surrounding the village chief's house immediately followed the order and retreated, leaving only the village chief's most caring little cotton-padded jacket, Lu Tuo.

"Now there are only four of us. The village chief and I will try our best to meet your requirements, but please understand that we can't explain all the secrets in the village, and you don't need to know so much." Lu Tuo said while Tables and chairs were moved for everyone, and Ning Yao and Chun Yucai finally took their seats at the village chief's house.

Ning Yao nodded: "We are not interested in other things, we will leave after solving the evil spirits entrenched here, you can rest assured."

"First of all, you have been fighting with this evil spirit for so long, so you must know something about her. Can you tell me about the information you know about the evil spirit? It’s because the coffin has been filled with lingering negative energy all year round, but in fact this reason is untenable in our opinion.”

Lu Tuo's usual prevarication reason was exposed by Ning Yao, who showed an unsuspecting face but quickly covered it up: "This is... what the master we invited before said, and we country people don't understand these things."

Ning Yao was writing and drawing in his hand. He didn't know what was recorded in the small book, but he couldn't stop talking: "First of all, although ordinary people think that dealing with dead people is unlucky, it is actually a good thing to accumulate evil and virtue, and it will not It attracts evil spirits and evil spirits. Maybe people with light characters can’t suppress Yin Qi, but at most it’s bad luck due to the abundance of Yin and the decline of Yang, and they will never be missed by evil spirits.”

"Secondly, it was unfortunate that you were entangled by evil spirits. It's fine if you don't run away. Instead, the entire village was sealed off."

He turned his head and pointed at the old wooden sign: "Anyone who wants to leave the village is prohibited unless the village chief allows it."

"This rule is very strange. Isn't it normal that some villagers can't bear the harassment of this evil spirit and want to leave? Why is it forbidden to leave? What punishment will you receive if you leave?"

This time it wasn't Lu Tuo's explanation, but the village chief said slowly: "It's not only the restricted villagers who are forbidden to leave."

Ning Yao stopped the pen in his hand: "What do you mean?"

The village head poked the wooden sign on the ground with the walking stick in his hand: "This thing has been around for some years, and I don't know which generation of village head wrote the rules, but it's amazing, it seems to have some influence on everything in this village." The power of restraint.”

Chunyu suddenly spoke: "You mean, because of this rule, the evil spirits in the village cannot leave the village?"

The village chief smiled: "That's right."

Ning Yao was puzzled: "Then why didn't you let the villagers leave and then trap the evil spirits in this place?"

The village chief lowered his head and rubbed his smooth cane: "If there were no villagers, I wouldn't be the village chief, so my words wouldn't count. They are the ones who left without the permission of the 'village chief'."

Ning Yao suddenly realized: "I understand, this is a BUG. You must get the approval of the 'village head' to leave here, but without the villagers, you are not the village head, and your approval is not the 'village head's approval'. The villagers who leave It will be counted as a private escape and then punished by the rules."

He began to scribble on the small notebook again: "What punishment will the rules impose on the villagers who violated the rules and fled?"

Lu Tuo helped the village chief answer Ning Yao's question: "It's the relentless pursuit of evil spirits."

"That's not right." Ning Yao immediately retorted, "Isn't the evil spirit here trapped in the village?"

"This is the compensation for evil spirits by the rules," Chunyu said coldly.

"If a rule wants to be established and recognized by Heaven, it will at least try to be fair to all participants. The rule on this wooden sign is to help humans suppress evil spirits, but for the same reason, it will do various things to humans. constraint."

Chunyu got up and approached the wooden sign: "Humans abide by these restrictions, and evil spirits are also restrained; human beings violate these restrictions, then evil spirits can also break free from the corresponding shackles."

"So it's not the evil spirits that escape to hunt humans, but humans themselves that release the evil spirits from their cages."
