"Welco to Ginkgo Garden. Please rember every visitor notice on the tree; it will be our final kindness to you."
This sentence is deeply unsettling because it hints at the dangers ahead.
All Taboo Lands grow wildly, born from the obsessions of those who erged from them, turning into unique rules.
But they never form a system.
Only Taboo Land 001 is different; its rules form a system, creating a ga-like internal logic.
Moreover, there will be a large tree here, with Blessing Cards hanging everywhere, replenished automatically when missing...
But these Blessing Cards are not the fruits of the tree; even Taboo Lands must adhere to the basic laws of nature.
So, who hangs the Blessing Cards, and does this Taboo Land truly have an indescribable existence?
At this mont, Qing Chen looks at the towering ginkgo tree, its trunk lined with small script reading ’Ginkgo Garden Visitor Notices’.
"1. The amusent park has 12 zones. After entering the Taboo Land, make sure to visit the amusent park and play at least one level, or the Taboo Land will be displeased."
"2. Please do not reveal your real na to anyone else in the amusent park."
"3. To ensure the amusent experience and the original intention of the facilities, no tools can be used in the amusent park."
"4. Every ti you enter a level, the number of participants must be one less than the previous level, and only one less."
"5. The park’s big tree will not call your na, as it cannot speak. If you hear the big tree call your na, quickly leave it and exit the amusent park."
"6. The park’s big tree will not grow human faces. If you see a tree with a human face, quickly leave it."
"7. There is no roller coaster area in the amusent park, but if you accidentally enter that area, close your eyes tightly, hold your companion’s hand, and exit backwards. If you have no companion, open your eyes, ride the roller coaster quickly to the exit, and rember not to blink. There is no Ghost House Area. If you see a ghost house, do not enter, imdiately move to the left roller coaster area and ride it to the exit."
"8. Do not enter the Maze Area between sunrise and sunset."
"9. Do not enter the water park area between sunset and sunrise."
"10. Rember, the slide tunnels in the slide area are red. If you see a black slide during the day, leave the area imdiately. If night has fallen, quickly slide to the exit. During this period, hearing crying in the tunnel is normal. If soone calls your na, do not respond."
"11. There are no crocodiles in the water under the suspension bridge. If you see a crocodile surface, quickly inform other visitors to stop playing."
"12. After 6 PM, ensure there is no one within 3 ters of you. If soone insists on approaching, rember, they may not be your companion."
"13. Ensure that after 6 PM, you are in the amusent park and not elsewhere in Taboo Land."
"14. Rember, upon hearing tal clashing, quickly leave the amusent park. If unable to leave in ti, ensure you are alone and go to the Guardian Lizard Sculpture in the Maze Area. Sit cross-legged, throw your Blessing Card into its mouth, and close your eyes until the clashing ends. It will protect you."
"Here, the entire staff of Ginkgo Garden wishes you a pleasant ti; a generous final gift will be given at the end of each level."
The nurous rules made everyone’s scalp tingle, their contradictions and absurdities evoking an inexplicable fear.
Qing Chen could only verify a few previous clues:
Firstly, no wonder Gou Wa, Boss Wang, Gou Sheng, and Er Hu aren’t real nas; in this Taboo Land, having others know your real na seems extrely dangerous, though what might happen is still unclear.
Secondly, to clear the levels, at least 12 people must enter simultaneously, but only one can complete it in the end. Of course, more people can co in.
Thirdly, it’s an extrely chaotic place. The roller coaster and Ghost House areas are said not to exist, yet you see the ghost house and must ride the roller coaster to be safe?
Finally, the Blessing Cards both ntioned by the two in the hut are only used after the tal clashing sound to go to the Guardian Lizard in the Maze Area...
So, does the amusent park beco terrifying after the clashing sounds start?
Unknown.
Mysterious.
Even with the rules laid before you, you may still not know how to survive in the amusent park.
Extrely dangerous.
Moreover, these rules might not be all there are.
At this mont, Gou Wa said, "Let’s go. This ti we’ll just go around the carousel area and pick up so things."
The carousel is the first zone of the amusent park, and these prospectors are only here to pick things up; no one is willing to continue further inside.
The rule is that as long as you enter, play one level, then you can exit safely.
Therefore, if you’re just making a living, there’s no need to keep playing.
But if it’s really that simple, why would so many people in the town go mad after just sitting on the carousel, which has no difficulty?
The group moved inward, Qing Chen looked back at the towering ginkgo tree, feeling its swaying in the wind like it was waving goodbye to the visitors.
