Liu Town at night was eerily quiet.
There were some faint lights in the distance, possibly from lanterns or candles.
The most unsettling thing was that Jiang Xiao and Bai Yi, as they walked on the stone-paved road, could only hear their own footsteps and the occasional whistling of the wind.

"Dad... is there no one in Liu Town?"
"It's okay, let's first see if there are any rules."
Jiang Xiao gripped Bai Yi's small hand tightly and began searching for the rules at the entrance of Liu Town.

Jin Ye was leaning against a large rock at the entrance of Liu Town, on which were carved the two big characters for "Liu Town."
