Xie Chen hurriedly rubbed his eyes twice to confirm whether the moon, which had a tendency to fall, had really turned red?

Fortunately, after rubbing his eyes and looking at it again, this second time he could see the full moon hanging in the sky clearly, and there was not much change at this time.

The slightly reddened color I saw earlier seemed to be just an illusion of my own.

"Is that really the case?"

Xie Chen's hands naturally drooped, and the long-sleeved Tsing Yi had completely covered his hands at this time, and he couldn't even see his fingers clearly.

The cuffs of Tsing Yi have been dragged on the loess road, which is longer than the general Hanfu.

Xie Chen didn't dare to relax in the slightest, and continued to walk forward.

As soon as he took two steps, he suddenly felt a tingling pain in his brain, and he thought he was hallucinating.

But then there were fingers and toes, and there was a tingling sensation in all three or four places, and even the half-raised foot could not hit the ground.

Xie Chen's feet trembled and leaned against the wall next to him, for fear that his feet would be weak and fall to the ground in the next second.

When this strange condition appeared in his body, the first thing he thought about was to quickly look up to see if the moon in the sky had changed.

When he looked up with difficulty, the original bright moon became a little flat, and he couldn't even understand whether it was bright or dark?

Xie Chenqiang took a breath.

Both eyes were about to narrow into a slit, but at this time, the moon in the sky was like a mirror, and I actually saw a human face from it.

The outline of the face was blurred, but it was still recognizable smiling at himself.

Xie Chen rubbed his eyes in disbelief, but found that his eyes hurt with his hands, so he could only end this action quickly.

Looking at the sky again, the outline that had not been very clear had become very clear, and the sound of gongs and drums wafted back and forth around it.

At first glance, you can tell that the sound of these gongs and drums is far away from you, and you can't make out the specific location at all.

My head was a little swollen, and even my conscious judgment of my surroundings began to blur.

Xie Chen hurriedly lowered his head, closed his eyes and carefully thought about the original appearance of the moon.

That round appearance was very vague in his mind, and he couldn't even remember it.

I finally had a prototype in my mind, but I couldn't hold on for too long, and the concept of the moon disappeared from my brain after a while.

This is a particularly painful thing for me.

The rules say that you should keep thinking about the original appearance of the moon in your mind for ten seconds, but every seventh or eighth second, the outlines of the eyes and mouth begin to appear in your mind.

Xie Chen hurriedly shook his head, gently banged the wall next to him with his forehead, leaning on the pain from his head to make himself vaguely conscious.

And this method obviously works.

After just two knocks, the wakefulness of the brain quickly maintained the appearance of the moon in his mind.

Xie Chen hurriedly opened his eyes and looked up.

The moon, whose facial contours were becoming more and more defined, began to blur a lot.

Seeing that this was indeed effective, he quickly closed his eyes again, relying on the pain of hitting the wall, and re-sketched in his mind what the moon should look like.

Since the effect, the moon in my mind has never had a facial feature, and even the moon in the sky has begun to slowly recover.

Xie Chen was covered in sweat, and stood up with one hand on the wall.

Since the clothes on his body became this green clothes, the first vision mentioned by the rules of the Loess Alley appeared.

Could it be that you have already broken the rules?

Just now, because of physical discomfort, my body was covered with fine sweat, but as soon as I thought about it, the sweat on my body dried unconsciously.

Xie Chen was startled in his heart, he seemed to have sensed a chill just now, could it be that the cold wind was blowing again?

The perception of the surroundings has become blurred, and even whether the wind has blown or not, I can't tell clearly......

Xie Chen covered his head and looked at the moon in the sky that had completely returned to its original state, and then he walked forward with difficulty.

After passing through a door, I saw that the rice in front of me was no longer fragrant, and instead a red egg was placed next to the bowl.

Although on the usual offering table, this kind of tribute is for Tu Jili, but now I don't look like an auspicious person.

As I walked forward, the rice bowls and eggs in front of the door could be said to come and go.

Some houses don't even have eggs and bowls in front of the door, just on the hard loess ground with three pillars of incense, I am very curious about how these three pillars of incense stand still?

As he walked further, a large puddle of black water blocked his way, and unless he waded through it with his feet, there was no way forward.

After Xie Chen saw this black pool of water, he quickly looked his eyes into the air.

The rules say that you must not look down at the black stagnant water on the ground, saying that it will not reflect anything, but the glance you just glimpsed can still see the faint moonlight shining from the sky, which is bounced off by the black stagnant water.

According to the principle of being able to reflect, if you walk in front of this pool of water now.

With such a large area of stagnant water.

I should be able to use the principle of reflection to see if there is anyone behind me by relying on the stagnant water.

It's a pity that after encountering black water, not only can you not try to look down at this black water, but you must also turn right at the next intersection.

Xie Chen didn't have any ink, and he didn't even have the slightest luck, so he hurriedly turned to the right.

At the same time as this action, there was a glance up at the moon hanging in the sky.

Because of the turn, the reference object and the angle of seeing also changed.

I seem to feel that the moon has shifted a little downward, but I am not sure if it is caused by the different references.

Xie Chen took a deep breath.

The moon did not have a human face, and it remained round, although the intensity of the glow seemed to have diminished a little, but other than that, there was nothing unusual.

Xie Chen stared as he slowly walked forward.

But after walking a few steps, he quickly stopped.

The cuffs were already dragging on the ground, but I didn't care at all.

Compared to the scene in front of me, clothes have become a trivial matter.

After turning right, the thing that appeared in front of me was the door of the two houses.

Only this time there were three pillars of incense inserted in the crack of the door, and all of these incense sticks had been burned, leaving only the incense handle inserted in the crack of the door.

Other than that, it's the empty bowl that is placed in front of the door.

There are three of them, and they are placed in front of the doors of the three houses in front of them, and the only difference between the bottom one and the two houses in front of them is that there is no burned incense stick in the crack of the door.

Xie Chen's feet were already a little weak, and he didn't expect that an empty bowl would suddenly appear around the corner, and he couldn't turn back and go back.

Now, even if you want to go to those bowls of rice and pinch some rice out, you don't have a chance.

Xie Chen swallowed a mouthful of saliva, racking his brains to frantically think of a solution in his mind.

But none of them can match it.

When there was really no way, Xie Chen had no choice but to reach into his pocket and take out the pocket watch, and pressed the backtracking button with all hope.

It's a pity that the effect that should have appeared did not appear.

I have already backtracked before, so I naturally know what kind of changes will occur around me after the backtracking button is pressed.

But now the silence is silent, as if it is too late to express everything to yourself.

Xie Chen couldn't accept this result, but he had to put the pocket watch back.

Xie Chen clenched his teeth and began to gamble in his heart, maybe the rule of putting rice in the bowl was wrong.

may have really picked up a life by himself.

The footsteps left the door of the first house, followed by the second house, and then the third house.

When he came to the door of the third house, the darkness in front of him was illuminated by the light around him.

To put it bluntly, I still blame myself.

When I first encountered the corner alley on the left, the visual distance inside was indeed much shorter than that of the straight road.

And just like the current alleyway, every house has empty bowls at the door, and there is no rice in the bowls.

After seeing the black water, I was so attached to the form of the moon in the sky that I forgot that there was also a great danger around the corner.

But it's too late to say anything.

After seeing the empty bowls placed in front of the fourth and fifth households, Xie Chen only felt a sense of foreboding all over his body.

But the Tsing Yi on his body did not change color, and his body did not appear to have any strange feelings.

There was no familiar cold wind blowing around, and there was no footsteps behind him.

Xie Chen staggered to his feet, but he felt that his body could not exert his strength.

After moving his hands vigorously, he found that it was nothing more than his own wishful thinking, and the speed at which his hands could swing was not limited in any way.

Xie Chen breathed a sigh of relief, but just as he was about to walk forward, the moon in the sky slowly turned red, and even the faint light shining on the ground had become red.

Xie Chen immediately sensed that something was wrong and hurriedly looked towards the sky.

But where is the moon in the sky at this time?

It was clearly a bloody and red human face, but compared with the previous grin, this time it didn't make any expression.

Xie Chen stared with bated breath, and the human face also descended from the sky into the air.

It gives the feeling that it could fall to the ground at any time.

Xie Chen's feet trembled a little.

After all, he no longer has any chance to save his life, and seeing this kind of thing undoubtedly proves that he has violated the rules.

In other words, the rule of adding rice to an empty bowl is right in itself.

Xie Chen didn't dare to waste any more time, so he quickly closed his eyes and carefully recalled in his mind what the moon should look like.

But this time it went unexpectedly well.

There's nothing weird stopping the moon in my head.

It's just that every time I look at the moon in the sky after ten seconds, the change is minimal.
