Chapter 1459 Rules Game
"Holy crap! Girl, you..."
Hong Wenli was closest to Lin Shanshan, or rather, he was standing right in front of her.
The sight of Lin Shanshan being disemboweled was directly presented to Hong Wenli!
The visual impact of cutting open a person's abdomen to expose the internal "parts" is simply too great.
Hong Wenli couldn't hold back and blurted out a curse.
His outburst of profanity stemmed primarily from being frightened. When people are frightened, they often use shouting or swearing to release their fear.
When Chen Mu saw this scene, his eyes were filled with shock.
Chen Mu had seen countless corpses and seas of blood, so he wasn't frightened.
What truly shocked Chen Mu was that Lin Shanshan was actually dead!
Because the "disembowelment" happened so quickly, Lin Shanshan didn't even have time to react.
She just felt as if her already painful stomach was about to explode. But suddenly, at a certain moment, she felt like a plush doll, as the "stitches" on her stomach suddenly burst open.
The uncomfortable feeling in my stomach disappeared without a trace.
At this moment, Lin Shanshan felt very comfortable, except that her stomach felt a little cold.
She couldn't quite understand why Hong Wenli and the others were looking at her with such shock.
"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that..."
Lin Shanshan really wanted to ask that question, but the words stuck in her throat, and she just couldn't say them.
Her body, which had been "disemboweled," no longer had the strength to utter those words.
It was only then that Lin Shanshan realized something was wrong with her stomach.
She couldn't help but lower her head and look at her stomach.
That one glance almost scared her out of her wits.
As she lowered her head, her exposed internal organs, like slippery loaches, "splashed" out of her stomach.
Some organs were connected to blood vessels, and "red lines" were pulled out of her abdominal cavity.
Lin Shanshan had no chance to react. Her entire body, like an empty shell, crashed backward and fell to the ground.
The corpse that had been thrown to the ground twitched instinctively twice before becoming still.
On a cold winter night, at the village entrance, a person lay quietly on the muddy ground with his chest exposed.
His chest was open, red, and still emitting white steam.
Next to it was a pile of sticky, slimy internal organs.
Faced with this scene, the players present were speechless for a moment.
Lin Shanshan's sudden death was like a heavy hammer blow, shattering the players' sense of ease.
These horrific images of death are even more shocking to the players.
At the same time, a line of blood-red characters appeared in front of Chen Mu and the others:
[First delivery mission failed!]
Seeing this, Chen Mu frowned.
Xiaoye, standing to the side, was also filled with surprise.
As for Hong Wenli, he was so frightened by Lin Shanshan's death that he started vomiting.
Chen Mu couldn't help but mutter to himself, "How strange, the letter has already been delivered, how could it have failed?"
Chen Mu turned his head and glanced at the depths of the village behind him.
The bald man didn't chase after them, and the woman's screams, which had been going on, fell silent.
The entire village returned to its initial tranquility.
If someone were to pass by here, they would only think it's a peaceful mountain village.
No one could have imagined what terrifying and unbelievable things had happened in the cabin not long ago.
Before Chen Mu could think further, the remaining three players felt a white light appear before their eyes.
The scenery of the mountain village changes rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, Chen Mu and his two companions were back outside the forest post office.
Not far away, the blood-red mailbox still stands there silently.
Everything that just happened felt like a dream.
However, the missing Lin Shanshan and the bloodstains on Hong Wenli's clothes tell the players that what just happened was not an illusion.
The first mail delivery mission failed!
Hong Wenli gagged several times before finally managing to regain his senses.
He looked at Chen Mu and Xiao Ye with a somewhat blank expression.
"How could this be? We clearly delivered the letter to the recipient. Why did the delivery mission still fail, and why was Lin Shanshan executed after the failure?"
As Hong Wenli said this, it was clear that he could not accept this result.
Based on Hong Wenli's experience, once he encounters this situation, he is only one step away from failing the bizarre mission.
Compared to the dejected Hong Wenli, Chen Mu and Xiao Ye were in much better shape.
No, using "good" is not quite accurate; it should be said that they are worlds apart.
Xiao Ye wasn't flustered at all; he had complete faith in his boss's abilities.
As long as the boss is around, there's no problem that can't be solved. As long as the boss assigns a task, I just need to do it well.
If even the boss isn't panicking, why should I?
As for Chen Mu, although the scene before him was bizarre, it was not incomprehensible to him given his many years of experience.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Mu slowly began to speak: "The delivery failure and Lin Shanshan's death should be considered separately. It's not that the delivery failure caused Lin Shanshan's death."
Chen Mu immediately refuted Hong Wenli's logic.
According to Hong Wenli, Lin Shanshan died because the message delivery failed.
This is an easy logical fallacy: linking two seemingly related but not strongly related things as causally related.
Hearing Chen Mu's calm voice, Hong Wenli slowly came back to his senses.
In times of panic, having a calm and collected teammate can indeed help stabilize morale.
With Chen Mu standing there, Hong Wenli felt much more at ease.
Along with Chen Mu's analysis, Hong Wenli's previously fragmented thoughts began to gradually connect.
“Brother Chen… no, Brother Chen, what do you think?” Hong Wenli asked.
"You can call me Boss Chen, that's what many people call me," Chen Mu corrected.
In fact, for Chen Mu, it didn't matter whether it was corrected or not; he didn't care about it.
But correcting it is just a joke, and it can lighten the mood.
Chen Mu continued his analysis: "I think that in bizarre missions, no matter how things change, they still cannot be separated from the rules."
In essence, the bizarre missions are a game of rules, where you have to find a way to survive within those rules.
The rules do not state that players who fail to deliver a message will be executed. Therefore, assuming that Lin Shanshan's death was due to a failed message delivery is unfounded and lacks any rule support.
Of the four Postman Rules, only one relates to the circumstances under which a player is executed.
In other words, if a player dies unexpectedly, it can only be for this one reason.
