Chapter 1450 Mountain Village
Chen Mu shrugged. "Whenever things get difficult, I always have to make the decisions."
Chen Mu thought for a moment, "If it really doesn't work, then you can just take the letter. Anyway, the four of us are postmen, so it shouldn't be a big problem."
Let's not delay any longer. Affix the stamps and start the delivery process.
Listening to Chen Mu's arrangement, Hong Wenli felt that it made sense.
At this point, we can only take it one step at a time.
Hong Wenli nodded, picked up the stamps beside him, and prepared to stick them on.
The other players also gathered around, watching Hong Wenli's actions.
Just as he was about to affix the stamp, another cawing of crows rose from the nearby woods.
The creaking sound, heard near the abandoned post office in the dark forest, sent chills down one's spine.
Chen Mu whispered a reminder: "Don't stick it on the wrong side, pay attention to the front and back and the direction."
The design on the stamp looks somewhat obscure and difficult to understand. These strange designs, like the eerie bosses on some old coins, can easily create traps in terms of orientation and direction.
Only a veteran like Chen Mu could notice such details.
After hearing this, Hong Wenli also became somewhat insecure.
At this moment, Lin Shanshan also said, "You absolutely mustn't open the letter, or I'll die."
Of the four rules, rules 1, 3, and 4 do not specify penalties, while only rule 2 states that if a letter is opened without permission, the person in question will die.
The "corresponding person" is quite intriguing.
Clearly, the "Lin Shanshan" written on the envelope is very likely the person in question.
Therefore, since it concerned her own life and death, Lin Shanshan naturally had to speak up and remind her.
The continuous pressure made Hong Wenli somewhat nervous.
He looked at the stamp, then at the envelope, and finally handed the stamp to Chen Mu. "Why don't you do it, brother? I'm too young to handle this."
Looking at the older man who said he was too young to handle things, Chen Mu felt a sense of irony.
But Chen Mu didn't waste any words. He took the stamp, found the right angle, and stuck it on the envelope without saying a word.
As the stamp was affixed, all the players present held their breath and stared intently at the letter.
After all, nobody knows exactly how the delivery will be made.
We can't exactly take a taxi to some unknown village.
Clearly, we still have to rely on rule 3 – once the stamp is affixed to the surface of the letter, the letter will be automatically delivered.
No one can say for sure exactly how "automatic delivery" works.
Just then, Chen Mu and the others felt a dizzying flash of light in front of them.
The cawing of crows continued for a few moments.
A sudden feeling of weightlessness came over me, as if I had traveled through time and space.
When the situation returned to normal, Chen Mu quickly glanced at his hand, where he was still holding the letter.
The group's location shifted from next to the mailbox to outside a remote, desolate mountain village.
At the entrance to this mountain village, there is a sign.
The name of the village was written on it, which happened to be the delivery address in the letter.
"Have we arrived at the destination yet? Is it time to deliver it to me?" Lin Shanshan asked nervously, glancing at Chen Mu to make sure he hadn't opened the letter.
Lin Shanshan then said, "Chen Mu, once we enter this village and pass this sign, can you give me the letter?"
Although Lin Shanshan was nervous, she was still very polite.
Chen Mu nodded without refusing, as he also wanted to know if this counted as a successful delivery.
“But before that, everyone should take a look ahead. Something seems... off there,” Chen Mu said, pointing to the village in front of them.
