The moonlight was bright, covering the fields with a layer of silver, and the summer night wind blew, startling a frog sound, adding a little vitality.

Chu Nan and the three of them had searched here several times, but there was no trace of the scarecrow at all.

Mu Pengfei and the others also found the field, but they also found nothing.

"Can you find the scarecrow?" Miao Qi asked towards Chu Nan and the others.

"I haven't found it." Zheng Yue'e replied.

Then the crowd fell silent, and it was already dawn, not long before dawn.

"Is there anything else we haven't found?" Yan Lin followed Chu Nan and asked.

"The streets, and the fields, have all been searched, and if you have not found them, only those houses have not been found." Zheng Yuet'e replied.

"Then we'll go and search the house." Chu Nan decisively decided that if he hadn't completed the task before dawn, he might have touched strange rules, and he wouldn't know how to die.

Mu Pengfei and the others had no other opinions, and they tacitly separated from Chu Nan and his party, Chu Nan and a few people searched the east of the village, and they searched the west of the village.

As the search progressed, Chu Nan's mood became heavier and heavier.

"Uncle Chu, you're right, it seems that no one has lived in these houses for a long time." Yan Lin said scaredly.

They had searched several houses, all of which were covered with ash, and some of them had uneaten food on the stoves, but they were all moldy, and it was evident that the owner of the house had left in a hurry and had not had time to clean up.

An hour later, Chu Nan and Mu Pengfei and the others converged.

"Did you find anything?" Miao Qi asked.

"No, the houses on the east side have been vacant for a long time, they are uninhabited at all, and no scarecrows have been found." Zheng Yuet'e replied.

"It's the same on our side, it seems that there are no living people in the whole village." Miao Qi's face was heavy.

Everyone was silent, and at this point, it was as if they had fallen into a dead end.

"Senior Brother Hu, what's that one in your hand?" Zheng Yue'e pointed at Senior Brother Hu and asked.

Everyone looked over and saw Senior Brother Hu holding a yellow hat in his hand.

"I found it in a room, didn't the village chief's grandson say that the scarecrow wore a yellow hat? So I took it with me. ”

Senior Brother Hu raised the hat in his hand and showed it to everyone.

In appearance, this is an ordinary hat, and there is nothing peculiar about it.

"Didn't you find the scarecrow in the house where you found the hat?" Zheng Yue'e asked out loud.

"No, Senior Brother Wang and I searched for a lot of convenience, but we didn't find anything else." Senior Brother Hu said, and glanced at the other disciple next to him.

Senior Brother Wang nodded, and also said that there were no other discoveries.

At this time, Chu Nan secretly searched for this hat and used the system.

【Search】

【Contaminated hat (purifyable): If you wear it, some strange things may happen】

Chu Nan's heart tightened, could it be ......

"It's almost dawn, what if we can't find the scarecrow?"

Mu Pengfei said anxiously, the rules are weird, if you violate its rules, even if you are a master of the innate realm, it will be difficult to get out of the whole body.

"Perhaps, I already know where the scarecrow is." Chu Nan opened his mouth and said.

"Oh? Where is it? Let's go find it! Mu Pengfei said anxiously.

Chu Nan stared at the hat in Senior Brother Hu's hand and said, "The scarecrow is here with us. ”

After Chu Nan finished speaking, everyone else looked at each other and looked around, but they didn't see any scarecrows.

"The scarecrow is with us? Why didn't I see it? Mu Pengfei asked suspiciously.

Chu Nan pulled the second daughter beside him, took a step back, and then said: "There is a problem with this hat, perhaps, whoever brings it will become a scarecrow." ”

Chu Nan gave this inference according to the prompts of the system.

As soon as Chu Nan's words fell, everyone stared at the hat in Senior Brother Hu's hand, and Senior Brother Hu was so frightened that he hurriedly threw the hat out of his hand.

"How do you know there's something wrong with this hat?" Mu Pengfei covered his chin with his hand, puzzled, why couldn't he see any difference in this hat.

"We've searched the whole village, and we didn't see any scarecrows at all, except for this hat." Chu Nan explained that there were some things she didn't want to do, so she had to explain them to Mu Pengfei, maybe they would do it.

"And the hint given by the grandson of the village, the scarecrow wearing the hat, since the scarecrow can't find it, the problem can only be on this hat, of course, I'm just guessing, you don't believe it, you can wear it and try it."

It's almost dawn, and after Chu Nan tells his guess, it's up to Mu Pengfei and the others to do it.

Mu Pengfei thought for a while, then said:

"Which of you puts this hat on and tries it? I don't believe he's telling the truth! ”

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, no one wants to try to wear this hat.

Mu Pengfei glanced at Senior Brother Hu and Senior Brother Wang a few times, and saw that the two of them had goosebumps, but fortunately, he quickly moved his gaze to Chu Nan and the others.

"You guys try to put it on." Mu Pengfei pointed at Chu Nan and the others.

"Why do you want us to wear it?" Yan Lin retorted.

"You brought it up, of course I'm going to let you try it." Mu Pengfei said with a wicked smile.

"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, the three of us won't try." Chu Nan protected Zheng Yue'e and Yan Lin and said.

"Don't think that if you take my palm before, you think you're great, I'm originally a knife, and my fists and feet are not my forte."

Mu Pengfei said, and pulled out his saber, which was a Japanese sword, with a thin and long blade.

Chu Nan also wanted to say that she was the best at making knives, but her firewood knife was gone, and she couldn't perform the three styles of firewood knife, and in the face of Mu Pengfei who was holding a knife, she was really not sure that she could win.

"Village Chief?!" Chu Nan suddenly shouted behind Mu Pengfei, and Mu Pengfei and the others looked back in shock, but there was no one behind Mu Pengfei at all!

"Oh no, the middle plan!" Mu Pengfei and the others came back to their senses, Chu Nan had already started the pace of Moon Shadow and left with the two daughters.

After Chu Nan and the three left, a rooster crowed, indicating that the sky was about to dawn.

Chu Nan took the two daughters back to their previous residence, rested for a while, and the three of them waited quietly for dawn.

Chu Nan was sitting on the bed, and she poked the hole in the window a little bigger to make it easier to see the situation outside the house.

Zheng Yue'e leaned next to her and sat together quietly.

It was Yan Lin, who was restless, getting up and walking for a while, and going to bed again for a while, she still couldn't help asking:

"Uncle Chu, if the task is not completed, what will happen to us?"

"Probably dead." Chu Nan said lightly.

"Then aren't you afraid of death?"

"I'm afraid."

"Then why are you so calm?"

"Because I know we're not going to die." Chu Nan said firmly.
