Strange rules: starting with a white-haired beauty

After crossing the iron fence, Lan Zhirou ignored the warning on the iron sign and walked straight across the wooden pontoon to the stone pavilion in the center of the lotus pond.

As early as she had just passed through the iron fence, she had already seen something attached to a pillar of the stone pavilion, and there was a wooden sign beside the stone pavilion.

I originally thought that the person who wrote the wooden sign at the foot of the mountain had left a message here again, but when Lan Zhirou got closer, she realized that there were no rules written on the wooden sign, only a short sentence. It made her happy for nothing.

[In Buddhist legend, lotus has the function of purifying the soul. I hope this lotus pond can also purify your soul. I wish you good luck. 】

But when she saw what was written on the paper, her heart that had already experienced "empty joy" suddenly became active again.

It was a piece of paper that had turned yellow and was attached to a pillar near the pool. I don’t know how much wind and frost it had gone through here.

[Qingzhushan Tourist Guidelines (Part 2)]

[Rule 3: You should have encountered strange things on the way here.

Except for the tourist regulations at the foot of the mountain, do not believe any notices other than this notice! 】

[Rule 4: Except for Qingzhu Village, there is no organization in Qingzhu Mountain (this paragraph seems to be highlighted with a red pen).

[Rule 6: If you have lost your way and cannot find the correct way up the mountain, please follow the following process to determine what you should do. 】

[Rule 7: I wish you everlasting fame and transcendence. 】

After this new tourist code, there are some strange words at the bottom that look like they were written with a finger dipped in red paint.

[They are all liars, they are all liars...Don't trust anyone! You are the only one to believe in now, and no matter where you are, always remember that. 】

[That crow can’t become a god at all! It has neither divinity nor human heart. 】

"It's starting to get abnormal..." After reading the rules, Lan Zhirou sighed softly. What she felt was wrong was not the strange words written in "ketchup" below, but the rules. Article 7.

In the previous rules, the rules maker who had no idea of ​​his origin always said things like "I wish you longevity and health, and I wish you all the best." Especially at the beginning, he seemed to be just saying I wish you good health or something like that. Yes, as we went later, the messager's words became more and more weird. During the previous journey, Lan Zhirou didn't notice this subtle change and just thought it was an ordinary blessing.

"I wish you eternal prosperity and transcendence?" Lan Zhirou looked at the seventh rule and repeated it silently. "How can you be transcendent when you are still alive?"

This sentence sounds really weird, as if the person who saw it has fallen into some kind of situation.

It becomes even weirder when paired with the following paragraph. Don’t believe anyone. Is the person who left this wooden sign and note among them? Judging from the amount of ketchup under the piece of paper, the person who left this message will definitely not survive.

But through the information recently collected, Lan Zhirou has also determined one thing. There may really be a "god" in Qingzhu Mountain. The villagers' request to visit the temple on the top of the mountain also proves this, although Lan Zhirou does not know this yet. Are the so-called "gods" and "crows" the same thing? However, the two most dangerous entities currently heard in Qingzhu Mountain are obviously these two.
