This is not a weird story

【Strange Story: One Man's Yizhuang】

[Grade: C]

[Type: Single player (occasional, role-playing)]

[Description of the event: In front of you is a yizhuang jointly built by three nearby villages. It is used to store coffins that have not yet been buried in these three villages. However, due to flooding, these villages have been relocated one after another. Yizhuang has gradually shown signs of being abandoned, and you are the last person left here. There are still a few unburied corpses left in the village. Please fulfill your duties as a left-behind. They will thank you. Remember, your activity range cannot exceed 100 meters outside Yizhuang. 】

[Main task: Stay in Yi Zhuang for ten days. During this period, you must perform the duties of the left-behind person. You must not be lazy. 】

[Main mission reward: 500 energy points]

[Hidden tasks: Yes]

"Yizhuang?"

Wei An felt surprised and did not twist the brass door lock for the time being, but looked up at the top of the door.

There was nothing there except two lanterns.

Just looking at it from the outside, there is no way to know that this place is actually a righteous village where unburied people are kept.

And it can be seen that he took a step from Binbin's home over there and arrived here, which shows that these two ghost story tasks are closely connected.

In other words, if the "locking the door" ghost story is a very regular task, then the "Yizhuang" ghost story is probably of the same type.

Because this is the rule of this special ghost story, and its powerful rules are its characteristics.

"It seems that the rules of this ghost story are not only powerful, but also cover a large area. The missions of the ghost story are not the same. After completing the first 'Lock the Door', you still need to complete the 'Yizhuang' before you can go out." Wei Wei. An secretly speculated, "I just don't know if there will be anything else after completing this task?"

But now he has begun to pay attention, so when completing the mission of Yizhuang, if he encounters that part of the rule center that has not been destroyed, Wei An will find a way to destroy it and destroy other hidden rules at the same time.

He would no longer let this special and powerful rule keep him trapped inside, unable to get out.

Now that he has completed the "locked door" weird story, Wei An has a full understanding of this type of strange rules and has gained experience in clearing customs.

If the current "Yi Zhuang" mission is the same as before, or not much different, then this "Yi Zhuang" mission is the end of the entire strange story.

Twisting the brass key, he unlocked the brass door lock. The moment he pushed the door open, there was a harsh grinding sound on the door shaft, which was extremely abrupt in this empty and silent mansion.

Inside is a small rectangular courtyard, with several lanterns with firelight hanging above it, arranged in a row, making this place not as dark as expected.

Going further inside is a completely open lobby door. Even if Wei An is not close, he can see several coffins placed in the lobby. Starting from the open door, they are placed inside from the left and right sides.

However, there was no lantern lit in the lobby, but only a kerosene lamp.

The lights were dim and flickered from time to time, and Wei An could not clearly see the number of coffins inside, nor how they were arranged.

He did not enter the lobby immediately, but looked at both sides of the long and narrow courtyard and found that it could be passed in both directions. By bypassing the courtyard passage, he should be able to go to the back of the lobby where the coffins were, where he might have his own residence.

Now let’s not go to the residence for the time being, but seize the time to understand the plot rules of the entire ghost story.

When Wei An walked to the lobby, a cold breeze blew from the lobby where the coffins were placed, caressing his hair, ears, and shoulders, as if a gentle hand was caressing him quickly.

But goosebumps suddenly appeared on the skin wherever it passed.

You can clearly feel a coldness spreading from inside, as if the outside of the lobby and the inside of the lobby are two different worlds.

Wei An could now use the oil lamp in the hall to see clearly what was going on inside. There were exactly ten coffins placed on the left and right along the doorway.

However, the three coffins on the left are all open, and only two are covered, indicating that there are corpses inside. The coffins in the column on the right have only one covered, and the others are open, so there is only one corpse stored here.

In the entire lobby, a total of three corpses were still there, and the rest of the coffins were idle.

Wei An did not enter the lobby immediately, but turned his attention to something like a notice board next to the door.

The background of the sign is black, and the fonts on it are white. The sign feels like it is almost completely rotten. The fonts on it need to be seen carefully to be recognized, and the words are small and numerous.

Fortunately, the firelight from the lanterns in this long and narrow courtyard was sufficient, and Wei An could basically understand these words after carefully identifying them.

[Instructions for those left behind:

1. There are ten coffins in the original villa that can temporarily store corpses. Basically, they will not all remain idle, but it has never happened that all ten coffins are filled with corpses.

2. A corpse can only be stored here for three days. If no one comes to claim and bury it for more than three days, the body will be buried in a mass grave behind Yizhuang by the person left behind.

3. The corpse that has not been collected within the time limit must be buried within three days of storage. If it cannot be buried within the time limit, take one copper coin, some paper money, and a white candle and place them in front of the coffin. Burn the paper money and candles, and put the copper coins away. Into the coffin.

4. Remember to refuel the oil lamps in the hall at any time. They must keep burning at twelve hours every day and cannot be extinguished.

5. You must patrol the Yizhuang twice every night, once at the third watch and once at the fifth watch. If you hear any movement in the lobby during this period, please ignore it and continue patrolling until you reach your residence before resting.

6. If you hear singing while patrolling in the evening, remember not to hum along. If necessary, turn left three times on the spot, then return to your residence along the way you came, and patrol again after the singing disappears.

7. Those left behind must record the day's work in the record book before going to bed in the evening. If any changes are found in the previous day's record, immediately tear out the page and burn it with an oil lamp in the lobby. If anything weird happens during this period, don't deal with it. Burn the record page immediately and record again.

8. If you find that all ten coffins in the lobby contain corpses, immediately blow out the oil lamps, close and lock the lobby door, and leave Benyizhuang as quickly as possible. 】

With the previous experience of "locking the door" in the ghost story mission, Wei An has now roughly figured out the routine of this kind of rule ghost story.

Now after reading these instructions for those left behind, he knows that this is still the current rule pattern of this special strange story.

If you want to stay here for ten days, you must follow the above rules every day, otherwise a lot of problems will easily occur during this period.

Thinking of what happened in the last ghost story mission, Wei An murmured to himself: "But...are you really staying behind for ten days?"

Tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year. It’s rare to take a break and I want to give myself a day off! This is my first time to take a leave of absence for this book, I hope it will be approved! Love you all (づ￣3￣)づ╭~ Let’s eat well, drink well, have fun, sleep well, and celebrate the New Year in peace!
