Qingtang Town, Shen Family Ancestral Hall. Shen Ye knelt in front of the ancestral tablet and offered incense to the thirteen cunning offerings. His fingers were burned by incense ash, and blood dripped into the bowl. Those red paper umbrella ghosts, soul-sucking videos, and advertisements for the dead—all stared at him outside the ancestral hall. He is the son of a sacrifice from a branch of the Shen family, and his only value is to use his blood to appease Guizhou and ward off disasters for the geniuses. Tonight, the city switches rules again. The abandoned school has become the realm of "township agreement": you are not allowed to look back after midnight, and those who do will have their souls devoured by the rules. Prodigy Jiang Niannian was trapped, and the direct descendants of the Shen family ordered Shen Ye to go in and die. As Shen Ye walked into the school, a mechanical voice sounded in her ears: [Sign in successfully. Obtained: Paper Stand x1, Sacrifice Disguise x1, Township Pact Loophole x1. ] He lit the paper man on fire and forged the identity of the sacrifice - bypassing the rules and rescuing Jiang Niannian.
