Access the rule from outsidefolder

I am using Maven.And invoking rules we are using drools.If the rules.drl is present inside the project folder.. it is automatically searched and found the expected value.But my requirement is, I need to access rule - outside the class Folder. I thought we need to outside folder path in kmodule.xml,instead of giving package="*". But it is throwing " No files found for KieBase CrossPlan1, searching folder inside the project ".Is it possible to do this..
