In the world of strange rules, abstract and complex, [infinite]

Chapter 36: 40



The female student had a serious expression, finished speaking kindly and harmlessly blinked her eyes, and continued speaking: "Mr. Mao Zi, I am nineteen years old this year, my growth path is very normal, just entered first year last month. Whether it is my parents or myself, they all hope that I can achieve good character, but to do it perfectly is very difficult."

"So I really want to know, what exactly qualifies as brave, intelligent, kind, and clever?" She asked in a light and delicate tone, very much like a student asking a teacher a question in the office.

Diep Tich heard half of it and felt relieved and turned back: Little girl can do it! She also knows how to react, combining her own actual situation to bring out her core ideology!

Mr. Mao Zi gritted his teeth in anger: "Go ahead... But I still won't give you a gift!"

After saying that with a resolute tone, Mr. Mao Zi left the female student's head and turned towards the sixth tourist.

This kind of result was not unexpected at all, from the discussion about the rules in front of the shopping mall she immediately realized that the ones who were bound by the rules were these "outsiders", as well as NPCs.

So here, as long as they don't let Mr. Mao Zi find any loopholes, and don't show his dislike for their qualities, he won't be able to do anything to them. As for whether or not they can get the gifts, it's a small matter. The goal of the big shots in the Rule Realm isn't to accumulate props, just being able to survive is already very good.

So if you can't get "Approval", then making yourself stop between "Approval" and "Dislike" is also not bad.

Along with the Parallel Rule Realm, Xiao Leng led the team when entering the magic cave because of the problem of people's discrimination, but this person was luckier than Chen Yinghui, the protective mechanism was activated, the twin brother gave his life for him, so there were still 10 people sitting in the mine car.

Xiao Leng was familiar with the road and found that there was no useful information on the way from the door to the ore cart, so he naturally sat in the first seat on the ore cart.

When Mr. Mao Zi sang and flew down on his head, he said: "Mr. Mao Zi, you are omniscient and omnipotent. To receive your approval is an extraordinary honor. But I am just an ordinary person. I hope I cannot receive any reward from you."

"What do you mean?" Mr. Mao Zi shook his head, his voice clearly filled with questions.

Xiao Leng slowly said: "Humans are easily complacent, gaining approval from you here will make me lose sight of the immensity of heaven and earth. Therefore, I would rather not come to this scattered city, to motivate myself to become a better person, if in the future there comes a day when I can consciously reach your requirements, it is not too late to return to endure your test."

He spoke with a smile in his tone, not showing much "sincerity", but...

"You are so humble." Mr. Mao Zi clicked his tongue, "Humility is a good thing, much better than those arrogant and conceited humans!"

While speaking, it turned around and jumped down from behind Xiao Leng: "Then let's do as you say, my friend, I hope you can become a better person."

"Alright, thank you very much for giving me this opportunity, Mr. Mao Zi." Xiao Leng nodded politely, even turning his head back to watch Mr. Mao Zi go to test the next tourist.

... Then, the poor Mr. Mao Zi faced a car full of "modest" tourists, his emotions gradually became bold.

Tieu Lanh sat peacefully in the first class car, arms crossed, waiting for the whole team to pass.

On Diep Tich's side, Mr. Mao Tu was also being made to vomit blood by one "sincere" tourist after another.

Although sincerity is its favorite quality, these people are clearly imitating that lovely young lady in front, this makes its mood very bad.

Hey there cunning human!

If it could do whatever it wanted, it would definitely kill all these bastards, but there were rules, and it was even more omniscient and omnipotent. "It" silently monitored everything, unless these cunning humans revealed obvious flaws, otherwise it absolutely could not just rely on its own judgment to punish them——even if it was very clear that its judgment was correct, these cunning humans were just imitating, it would not do!

Right now, he could only be lucky. The rules he had set up also had the "Middle Gate Land". Facing these old foxes, although he couldn't easily exterminate them, he also didn't have to give them gifts.

Otherwise it will definitely be killed alive!

When the last person who exchanged letters with Ye Xi passed away, Mr. Mao Zi was already feeling so breathless that his chest was constricted——this was a very strange feeling, because he didn't have any chest at all, but he felt like he couldn't breathe.

It was not until it passed by Ye Xi's side again that it saw this truly sincere human being's mood change slightly for the better. It stopped a few steps away from Ye Xi's carriage and said in a calm and clear voice, "Alright, you guys are still not too bad of a human being, you've been staying in Mr. Mao Zi's magic cave for a long time."

"You may leave now."

These words seemed to touch something, the surrounding oil lamps suddenly went out, everything returned to darkness.

Next, a series of ore carts started up again, the wheels rubbing against the rails making a clumsy and rough sound, a car of people swaying inside continued to move forward.

Mr. Mao Zi also followed it around to the depths of the cave, everyone heard it scolding fiercely: "Oh no, humans are really a bad species! So cunning, and so good at camouflage!"

"Of course, they are also quite cute, that young lady just now was very cute!"

"But, there are really too few such adorable humans! The vast majority have hideous faces!"

"I really regret making the rules like this! Otherwise, those treacherous and cunning guys would all die in my hands! How wonderful the world would be!"

"Book... I have some regrets! If I had known this would turn out like this, I would have continued to help 'him'! Although he is a bit stubborn, he is much more adorable than a human!"

The sound of broken thoughts became more and more distant. Ye Xi turned his head to look at the direction the sound was going away. He felt that if words could be concretized, then this Mr. Mao Zi's departing figure should have drawn a long line of bullets.

This kind of brain-filling almost made her laugh out loud, then she noticed Mr. Mao Zi's last sentence.

—— "If I had known it would be like this, I would have continued to help 'him'"?

Diep Tich's expression slightly paused, he took out his cell phone that had no signal from his pocket, opened the memo, and remembered these words along with the suspicious points that the scout had vaguely sensed before.

The ore cart continued to run along the dark cave's track. After about seven or eight sections, the bright cave entrance once again appeared before their eyes.

Finally arrived at the exit. Hong rabbit waited there, greeted the second class in the car, glanced at the body of Ou Wei Qun in the car, and sighed somewhat exaggeratedly: "It seems that this friend's luck is not very good."

Having said that, he happily spread his arms: "Come on, tourists, we'll be going now! One! Stop!"

The next second, his eyes suddenly stopped on Diep Tich.

Ye Xi was hanging the pendant that Mr. Mao Zi gave her around her neck. She had just finished fastening the clasp behind her head when the red rabbit jumped in front of her. She wanted to reach out and touch it, but was so excited that she didn't dare to touch it. She couldn't believe it and asked with a trembling voice, "You, you, you... Where did you get this? Is this a gift Mr. Mao Zi gave you?"

"That's right." Diep Tich nodded, truthfully reporting, "Mr. Mao Tu said I was very sincere, so he gave me this necklace."

"Oh my, oh my!" The red rabbit covered her face, "Mr. Mao Zi actually gave this kind of gift! It's really unbelievable!"

Just now it was just an exaggerated action, now even the tone is exaggerated, Diep Tich found it funny: "I also really thank Mr. Mao Tu."

"Little girl, you really can." The aunt who had just taken the initiative to change seats with her laughed and followed, patting her shoulder, "If it weren't for you, I really wouldn't know how to answer the question, I definitely wouldn't be able to figure it out! Ai, I'd still like to change seats with you..."

A di said causing everyone to turn their heads to look.

It can be said that the immediate survivors, except for Zhang Binxin who died in place of his wife and the school bully Su Su, all the others survived by imitating Ye Xi.

If it was said that before entering the magic cave, everyone still did not have any trust in each other, now after going through a round of the game, they had developed a kind of respect and dependence towards Ye Xi.

As Su Su was still somewhat rational and had a desire to probe beyond respect and reliance, she walked to Ye Xi's side and thoughtfully asked her, "Do you really think so, or did you just find that you can get through this, so you deliberately said so?"

"Of course it's for customs clearance." Ye Xi smiled, calmly explaining his own logical analysis of the rules, from Mr. Mao Zi's evil joy to the rules revealing the "middle door land", analyzing them one by one for the other tourists.

Several individuals after hearing this all revealed a look of sudden enlightenment.

Just now, they imitated Ye Xi only to quickly leave that hellish place, they didn't bother to pursue her excuses for why she could gain Mr. Mao Zi's approval. Some people even simply and rudely thought that she was just lucky enough, so in the process of making Mr. Mao Zi feel that she was very sincere.

Now after listening to her analysis, I know that the hidden reward someone received has nothing to do with luck. It's really a rule of breaking through with strength!

The others were still in the afterglow of her analysis, but the school tyrant Su raised a new question: "That's right... Doesn't everyone have a 'protector god' mechanism? Everyone either travels with their family or with friends, and assumes themselves to be the other party's protector god, so there should be someone who becomes their protector god. Why did only that Mr. Zhang's protector god appear, while Chen Yinghui and Ou Weiqun both died directly?"

Su Su said while frowning: "Is there any special mechanism that Red Rabbit hasn't explained clearly?"

"Ah, what?" The red rabbit walking in front heard someone talking about him, turned around, and glanced around, "No way! Red rabbit is a qualified tour guide, he knows all the information, he wouldn't hide it from the tourists!"

Su Su's eyebrows jumped slightly. Although she didn't say anything, her eyes clearly showed a lot of trust when she looked at the red rabbit.

Diep Tich's eyes moved between To To and the red rabbit, and he nodded: "I trust this tour guide."

The red rabbit saw someone helping him speak, haughtily snorted, then turned around and continued to carry the team.

The tourists, because they heard Diep Tich's analysis, all surrounded her without prior agreement. She was surrounded by the gate, so everyone could hear what she said.

Diep Tich was very satisfied with this kind of situation, this meant that she had the right to speak in the team, in the future she would speak again without fear of no one listening, protecting her teammates would be clearly demeaning.

She thus reinforced her impression of being trustworthy by striking while the iron was hot, and calmly continued to analyze, "The guardian spirit mechanism was not activated, probably because the guardian spirit had already died one step earlier. Just now, when entering the amusement park, the tour guide said that every half hour there would be a wave of tourists entering the stage, and everyone could choose the person they wanted to protect inside, but that didn't say that each group of tourists had the same tour sequence and progress."

"Therefore, it is possible that Tran Oanh Hue and Au Ve Quan, the guardian gods, will encounter danger one step at a time."

"That makes sense..." Su Su nodded thoughtfully, the atmosphere became a bit heavy.

Amusement park tycoons who do not know each other will choose their own "protector god" who can only be an acquaintance who goes to Hoan Du Anh Thanh Music Park with them.

In this kind of situation, people's feelings will directly affect their choices. Ou Weiqun and Chen Yinghui's silent death of the guardian gods could very well mean that in the face of life and death, they decided to shoulder everything themselves, and not let Ou Weiqun and Chen Yinghui take the lead.

The identities of these two "Guardian Gods" were something they could not fully understand. Perhaps they were parents, perhaps they were brothers, perhaps they were best friends.

Before they died, Ou Wei Quan and Chen Ying Hui were also resolute in facing death themselves. Or were they waiting for the protective mechanism to be activated, causing the other party to seek death for them?

This is also unknown.

The atmosphere at the tourist gate was solemn. As the tour guide, the pink rabbit was unconsciously jumping around in front to lead the way, making this kind of strange feeling even more prominent.

Ye Xi quickly realized that Zhang Binxin, who had just pushed his wife to block the wall, had been isolated by the others. Everyone was walking along the street together, but the tourists who were closest to Zhang Binxin were intentionally or unintentionally avoiding him, as if if they were to get even a little closer to him, they would also encounter the same misfortune.

Having held the right to speak, Diep Tich chose to remain indifferent to this choice.

Although she was shouldering the task of protecting the masses and entering the Rule Realm, she didn't want to spend too much effort on this kind of person. She just needed to go through the process step by step.

A person who can protect himself and start planning to send his wife to find someone to kill before even entering the hospital. When encountering danger, he will absolutely not care about the life and death of these "strangers". Each person has the possibility of being pushed out to die in his place.

At this kind of premise, she did not directly consider how to kill him in order to cut off future troubles, but was also very restrained.

Zhang Binxin himself could feel this unfriendly feeling. The Rule Realm was already in danger on all sides, pits everywhere, being isolated by his teammates would undoubtedly make the situation even more dangerous. Zhang Binxin was terrified, hesitated for a moment, but in the end still decided to explain a little.

His gaze swept around, stopping at the man in the team who was about the same age as him, he sighed with tension: "Ai, I admit that I am not a thing, but, but I also have no way... In this kind of situation, one of the two people will die anyway, how many people can give up themselves, to let the other live?"

Zhang Bin Tan's explanation was actually very clever. He didn't force himself to get out of trouble, but said that he wasn't an object, and then asked questions to make the other person judge him by himself.

In this kind of situation, there really wouldn't be many people who would choose to give up their lives to let the other person live.

But unfortunately, he chose to explain that his teammates were observant people.

Hearing Zhang Binxin's explanation, Shen Tao looked at him with disdain: "Forget it, I see you have already predicted that you and your wife will have a double choice. For your own safety, wouldn't you rather encounter danger early and let her die first?"

"When you refused to change seats with that Miss Li Si, I'm afraid you also had this in mind. If it's really safer up ahead, then you can naturally avoid danger to the greatest extent, but if she really wants to make a mistake up ahead, then you won't be able to let your wife die first. Then if your wife encounters danger first, the one who dies will most likely be you, right?"

"I..." Truong Ban Tan was speechless and unable to answer.

He knew clearly that when he saw the perfect "Miss Li Si" pass by and the tourists behind him started to imitate her, he did indeed let out a sigh of relief.

——If he and "Miss Li Si" in front changed positions, then it would seem abrupt if she didn't learn from her later, and at this time, if her wife also encountered the same problem, there might not be a big shot in the team that could safely bring her through the test, he would definitely have to shoulder the danger of death.

This kind of "figure it out for yourself" made Zhang Binxin feel guilty for a moment, but this comment undoubtedly confirmed Shen Tao's guess. Even the expressions of his other teammates changed a bit, looking at him as if he was looking at a plague god.

Diep Tich pretended not to notice all of this, his gaze turned not far away, looking towards the forest of red trees.

This seems to be a European style red dome, very similar to a circus tent the kind of decoration on the roof, the crimson lining depicts very delicate golden patterns, the style is very classic, even in an amusement park, it is also some kind of symbolic existence.

After a brief recollection, Diep Tich quickly made a guess and asked the red rabbit: "Excuse me, do you want to ride the merry-go-round next?"

"En?" The red rabbit turned its head to glance at her, nodding repeatedly, "Yes, yes, that tent in front..." He pointed at the red tripod that Ye Xi was paying attention to, "That's the merry-go-round!"

—— master rule, there is a rule about the revolving wooden horse.

However, just now everyone looked at the magic cave's regional rules, the main rule is not very clear to everyone now. Hearing the red rabbit's answer, the tourists simultaneously took out the main rule's paper and searched for the relevant rule.

"7. The rotating wooden horse is limited to one rider per mount. If you discover a high-end mounted vehicle with two or more passengers, please shout loudly to stop it."

It's normal for cavalry to have limited numbers of equipment, but...

Diep Tich's eyes stopped at the second half of the sentence, feeling that it was illogical.

While she was hesitating, Su Su, who had just finished reading the rules, quickly walked up: "Miss Li, is this rule..."

Diep Tich suddenly turned his head and covered To To's mouth.

She guessed that the school bully also saw the same suspicious point, but the red rabbit just now specialized in exaggerating that he was the "most qualified" tour guide, it could be true, it could also be a strange person's assumption.

If it was the latter, and they heard it, they would suspect that there was a problem with the rules, which was obviously not wise.

Diep Tich therefore pressed To To's mouth to stop his steps, signaling the other tourists to go first. The other tourists also understood this, letting the two elders go first to discuss.

They just followed suit and followed suit. Su Su understood Ye Xi's meaning and lowered her voice, not letting Liu Er know what she was talking about. "Miss Li, I feel that at least half of this rule is fake."

Diep Tich nodded, trying to analyze what she had not said yet: "The original intention of setting up a limit on the number of people was for the safety of tourists, but if tourists shouted to stop violators, it would be very strange."

"Yes!" Su Su strongly nodded, her finger picking up the black glasses with the sub-criteria, "However, isn't it also possible that the number of people is wrong? Is it possible that more people riding is safer?"

Diep Tich thought: "The possibility is not high."

"That's right, a spinning wooden horse, wanting two people to sit on it is a bit difficult for others." Su Su frowned, tangled to the point of wanting to die, "But I'm afraid... The Rule Realm doesn't take the ordinary path, what if the ordinary way of thinking becomes a pit? If we made a mistake just now, the props Mr. Mao Zi just gave me can save me once, the others can already..."

Pain flashed in her eyes, she lowered her head, and hoarsely said: "Although I know that in the Rule Realm, the idea of ​​not dying at all is fundamentally unrealistic, but if one can try one's best to avoid danger, then still..."

Diep Tich kept silent while she spoke, and after confirming that To To's expression of being a benefactor was different from her acting, she asked: "Do you trust me?"

Su Su looked up at her, nodded and gave an excuse: "Just now in the magic cave, you seemed to be really trying to make mistakes for everyone. I trust you."

Diep Tich nodded: "Can I trust you?"

The school bully understood in a flash, and didn't waste any effort to convince her to trust him, but instead lowered his voice even more, and in order to ensure that the other visitors couldn't hear him, he fairly told her: "My real name is actually Wang Xinran, "Strongest Brain"'s seventh and tenth place contestant, ICC Middle School R category AP physics teacher, my identity certificate is..."

"Maybe!" Diep Tich laughed.

She just wanted the other party's attitude, and didn't want to really give her personal information.

Again, even if the other party gave her all personal information, if she couldn't survive outside, she wouldn't be able to verify it, so in the Rule Realm, even if one couldn't easily trust others, being suspicious of others was a matter of course.

As long as you feel the other party can trust you, that's fine.

Ye Xi paused her breath, and in exchange, she also appropriately revealed her personal information: "I am a 'lucky fake', with tools that can verify the truth of the rules. But if I only rely on myself, after verifying it, it might be difficult to convince others to believe me, and there is also the possibility of exposing my identity as a lucky fake, causing trouble."

"So, I came to verify, you come help me play a match."

"No problem!" Vuong Tam Nhiem replied very resolutely, she tightly grabbed Diep Tich's hand, this kind of feeling of a strong alliance made her tremble with excitement.

Diep Tich took a deep breath, his eyes once again stopped on rule page 7, his mind turned, and he started to use [Distinguish Dogs (Level 2)].

The familiar German Shepherd dog animation appeared again, because it had leveled up, it looked more robust and steady than before. It ran around the page, finally stopping at the side of the rule that Ye Xi wanted to distinguish, its nose pressed against the writing, sniffing from the beginning to the end.

After the first sentence, the rules did not change at all. But later, the writing turned red, then faded.

"'If you are riding around and find some highly equipped travelers sitting on two or more people, please loudly shout to stop' this sentence is fake." Ye Xi paused, his eyes lifted up, stopping on the teammates in front of him.:,,.
