We agreed to be a tour guide, how did it become the law of nature?

"It's very simple." Tingyun did not hide anything and briefly explained his thoughts.

Judging from the first rule, lying is absolutely prohibited in Qingyun Town, and this rule should also apply to all residents in the town.

The main task is to survive in the town for seven days, which means that there are things here that threaten the lives of several people.

I just talked to the pig scholar, and he clearly stated that he would never harm anyone. If the first rule can really affect the people in the town, it means that he did not lie.

If the people in the town were not capable of harming a few people, then the danger must come from somewhere else.

So Tingyun screened it and came up with a more general but possible possibility, and then he guessed it right.

Although there is a lot of luck involved, for example, the Pig Scholar may not have the ability to harm several people, and it cannot be ruled out that other residents in the town do not have this ability, but overall the start is relatively smooth.

While it was still early, the few of them planned to collect more useful information.

As for where to stay at night, they unanimously decided to stay in an inn first.

Qingyun Town is not big, and San Yueqi and her friends only took 30 minutes to tour the entire town.

There is a force of rules covering this place. Once you go beyond the scope of the small town, you will be filled with white fog in front of you and you can't tell the direction at all. No matter which way you go, you will eventually turn back.

Considering that it would be disastrous if they were completely lost and accidentally stayed in the fog until dark, the few of them decided to stop exploring.

The number of residents in the town was equally pitifully small. Apart from the innkeeper and the pig-man scholar whom they had already spoken to, the only people San Yueqi and her friends had met were two patrolling officials, the owner of the steamed bun shop, the manager of the ancestral hall, the waiter of the inn, and the doctor and his apprentice from the pharmacy.

In addition to these nine people, it is said that there is another county magistrate in Qingyun Town, but he is in the county government office and they cannot get in, so they have never seen him.

After a tour around Qingyun Town, San Yueqi and her friends did not get any new clues other than the information they had currently learned.

As it was getting dark, they had no choice but to return to the inn.

"Gentlemen, you are back. Would you like to eat something?" The innkeeper without facial features came forward to greet them.

They had been busy collecting information outside all day, and after hearing what he said, they actually felt a little hungry.

"What should I do? Eat it or not?" San Yue Qi lowered his voice and asked quietly.

This town is so weird. Who knows what the things in this inn are made of.

"You won't starve to death if you don't eat, right?" Bai Heng also spoke up. She was indeed a little disgusted by the innkeeper who had no facial features.

In comparison, even the inn waiter with a rat body looked more pleasing to the eye.

In the plot world, normal people also need to eat and sleep, but it’s okay to not eat for a day.

So after a brief discussion, everyone unanimously decided to be patient for the time being and see if they could get more information.

"What a pity! The hunters in the mountains sent us some fresh ingredients today." The innkeeper shook his head and did not try to persuade San Yue Qi and the others.

As for staying in a hotel, March 7 and the others planned to stay together tonight so that they could take care of each other and avoid any accidents.

This method is naturally possible, but the accommodation in the inn is not charged by room, but by number of people.

So even if they only stay in one room, they will have to spend a penny tonight.

Number of copper coins remaining per person: 2.

Just then, several people suddenly walked in from outside the inn.

These people were in a mess, supporting each other, with fatigue evident in their expressions.

The waiter with a rat body had bright eyes and rubbed his pink paws together: "My dear guests, you are exhausted from the journey, do you want to eat and rest? Our inn has hot meals and the rooms are clean and bright. I guarantee you will have a comfortable stay."

The leading traveler smiled bitterly and wiped the mud off his face: "To be honest, we encountered a thick fog in the mountains and couldn't tell the direction. When we fell down the steep slope, even our packages fell apart... Now we really don't have the money to pay the bill."

As soon as these words came out, the other people shrank their shoulders, their wet clothes still dripping with water, looking extremely miserable.

San Yueqi's heart moved. Isn't this experience the same as when they first entered Qingyun Town?

Although they started directly in Qingyun Town, the relevant memories still existed in their minds, they just skipped the previous story.

And more importantly, compared to those people in the town who are obviously abnormal, these people are too normal. At least there is nothing wrong with them from the outside.

The waiter's beard trembled slightly. He seemed to be happier after hearing what the group of people said. His two big front teeth were exposed. "Since you are in trouble, our store will certainly help you! The kitchen stove is still on. Have a bowl of ginger soup to warm yourself up. The guest room is also empty. You can stay for two days and leave after the fog clears."

The innkeeper standing behind the counter also expressed his welcome: "It just so happens that the hunters in the back mountain sent us wild boar meat, so let's consider it as a welcome treat for you all."

So the waiter ran to the kitchen and started busying himself, and the group of embarrassed travelers also found a table and sat down.

San Yueqi was about to go over and tell them the weirdness of this town, but Ting Yun grabbed his clothes.

"These people are not normal either." Tingyun shook his head slightly.

San Yueqi glanced sideways, and Xing and Bai Heng also fell into deep thought. Although they also felt that there was something wrong with these people who suddenly came to the inn, they couldn't figure out what exactly was wrong.

Tingyun explained, "Let's not talk about the waiter with a rat body, the innkeeper without facial features, no matter who sees him, it would be strange, right? So the scene seen by these people is different from ours? Or do they think the waiter and the innkeeper are normal?"

Hearing this, the other three couldn't help but shudder.

No matter which of these two situations, it is of no help to their current situation.

To go a step further, if the innkeeper and the waiter seen by these travelers appear normal, then are we the ones who are abnormal?

San Yueqi suddenly felt a chill in his heart, shook his head, and quickly put this thought aside. How could he think that he was abnormal?

"Wine and food are coming!"

At this time, the waiter came out from the back kitchen, with three layers of vermilion lacquer food boxes steadily placed on his shoulders and a jar of rice wine deftly hooked on his tail.

He landed lightly on the ground, and the food box opened like magic. The table was filled with red-marinated pork elbow, steaming wild mushroom soup, braised wild boar meat, and several dishes of juicy green seasonal vegetables.

"My dear guests, please have a taste!" The waiter removed the seal of the wine jar, and the rich aroma of wine immediately filled the air. "This is our homemade Qingyunzui, which is the best for driving away the cold."

The travelers stared at the table full of delicacies, their throats rolling unconsciously, but no one dared to pick up their chopsticks first.

They were penniless and didn't know how to enjoy such a hospitality.
