Quick Wear: Saving the Heroine Isn’t Too Easy!

The heroine of a supernatural novel and her secret guardian

Village Tales:

[Rule 1: Always put out the candle when you go to bed, otherwise it will come to you. ]

【Rule 2: Don’t enter a stranger’s house.】

【Rule 3: No one looks exactly alike here.】

Shangguan Xiu hid the note with the rules and looked at the room in front of her.

A year ago, the Rule Tales came into this world. Some people will be randomly selected to enter the Rule Tales copy. As long as they abide by the rules, they can survive. If they break the rules, they will be eaten by the weirdness in the Tales.

The chosen person is called the Chosen One. As long as he can survive, the Ruler will reward the Chosen One, and the country he belongs to will also be rewarded.

On the contrary, if the Chosen One gets lost in the instance, the country he belongs to will be punished.

Shangguan Xiu opened the door and walked out. It seemed that this small broken courtyard was the house in her copy. Next, she needed to find more clues to figure out how to pass the copy.

Knock knock knock!

There was a knock on the door outside the yard. Shangguan Xiu checked the door and found a note from the crack.

[Rule 4: If someone in the village asks for help, please help enthusiastically. ]

Shangguan Xiu put the note away and opened the door. Someone knocking on the door might be asking for help, and the rules state that one should help enthusiastically.

"Xiu'er, my cart is in the Li family's yard. Can you help me get it back?"

The village chief hunched over and said with a smile.

Shangguan Xiu nodded, and after the village chief left, Shangguan Xiu frowned. The rules said that we should be enthusiastic to help others, but the rules also said that we cannot go to other people's houses.

Unless she asked the people inside to send the cart out, she would have to go in and push the cart away by herself.

Shangguan Xiu came to the Li family, hoping that the Li family would return the cart to the village chief. The Li family quickly sent the cart out, and Shangguan Xiu touched the cart in confusion.

It was so smooth. Could there be something wrong with the cart? Finally, Shangguan Xiu came to the village chief's house and said that the cart had been taken back.

A little boy came out and said that his grandfather was not at home and hoped Shangguan Xiu could help bring it in. Shangguan Xiu was about to agree, but immediately shut up.

It's almost a trick. First they let you down, and then they invite you in when you let your guard down.

Shangguan began to think of ways to deal with the situation. If she wanted to help others enthusiastically, she had to help the little boy push the cart in, but she couldn't enter a stranger's house.

What is a stranger's house? Except your own house, all houses are strangers' houses.

Just when Shangguan Xiu was in a dilemma, a young girl came running over to rescue her.

"I'll help this sister get in."

Gu Xici pushed the cart into the village chief's house and followed Shangguan Xiu.

Shangguan Xiu wanted to thank him, but was afraid that this was a weird trap, so she ran quickly to her house.

Gu Xici chased after him with the note he found in the cart, stuffed the note to Shangguan Xiu, and ran away quickly.

Shangguan Xiu returned to the yard and opened the small note that Gu Xici had stuffed into her.

【Rule 5: Don’t make it unhappy. 】

Shangguan Xiu put away the note and began to think about why these rules were so confusing and who it was.

At this time, the country to which Shangguan Xiu belonged sent a reminder.

This is a survival copy. As long as you survive the specified number of days, you can pass it. This was researched by a team of experts based on the background and rules of this rural copy.

Shangguan Xiu felt that it was not that simple. Finally, she thought of the little girl who helped her. Although she felt that she could trust the little girl, there was still a country behind her. If she lost, the whole country would have to pay the price for her mistake.

At night, Shangguan Xiu heard crying sounds and wanted to hide under the quilt, but the sounds did not stop and kept her awake.

Suddenly, there was a scream outside, the crying sound disappeared, and calm returned outside.

Gu Xici dropped the brick and looked at the weird who was knocked unconscious by the brick. In this world, she was protecting Shangguan Xiu. If she wanted to hurt Shangguan Xiu, she had to defeat this BOSS-level weird first.

……

Shangguan Xiu, who had been having a surprisingly smooth time these days, became increasingly uneasy. This copy must be holding back some big move, first to relax her vigilance, and then to deal her a fatal blow.

Until the last night, the candle in Shangguan Xiu's room was lit. The candle burned, and the shadow of the candle flame slowly grew larger, opening its mouth wide to swallow Shangguan Xiu.

Shangguan Xiu took out a basin of water that she had prepared earlier from under the quilt and poured it on the candle. The candle went out and the shadow disappeared.

Although the matter was over, Shangguan Xiu was still nervous. This night might not be that simple.

After a while, it came over and Shangguan Xiu extinguished the candle, which made it very angry.

Shangguan Xiu looked at the shadow in the candlelight in horror and took out props to delay time.

Just when Shangguan Xiu wanted to use the points he had accumulated in this world of ghost stories to exchange for a powerful weapon, Gu Xici started fighting with the shadow in the candlelight.

The shadow in the candlelight was very angry and launched a fierce attack on Gu Xici. The body that Gu Xici had created was ignited by the fire, revealing his strange true face.

Gu Xici looked at his hands that were emitting black air, opened his mouth angrily and swallowed the shadow in the candlelight into his stomach.

Gu Xici covered his face and tried to leave, but Shangguan Xiu grabbed him.

Shangguan Xiu: "Don't leave. You have been protecting me secretly these days, right?"

Gu Xici nodded without saying anything.

Shangguan Xiu: "Why are you helping me?"

Gu Xici remained silent. After losing her body, she did not dare to recognize Shangguan Xiu.

"Let me see you, okay?"

Shangguan Xiu stepped forward and tried to take down Gu Xici's hands that were blocking her face, but Gu Xici dodged sideways. She was afraid that her appearance would scare Shangguan Xiu, so she planned to wait until she had a new body before going to see Shangguan Xiu.

"Hey!"

Shangguan Xiu lost her balance and fell backwards. Gu Xici hurriedly supported Shangguan Xiu. Only then could Shangguan Xiu see Gu Xici's face clearly.

“There is such a beautiful weirdness in the world.”

Shangguan Xiu stroked Gu Xici's face with her hand, her eyes revealing fascination.

Gu Xici: "..."

Whether she has turned into a boring classical Chinese document or not, Shangguan Xiu would always praise her by saying that there are such beautiful books in the world.
