Although the room was burned clean, it could be seen from the ashes that this place was similar to a cultivation room.

The ashes in circular forms on the floor should be from round futons, and there was a charred table in front of them.

If this was a cultivation room, how could a fire start there…

Bai Lixin’s slightly pursed his lips, but he quickly put aside these thoughts.
He went straight to the place the Taoist master directed them.

Just after two steps, Bai Lixin quickly stopped again.

In the place where he advanced was a huge beam pressed down.
The beam was stacked with horizontal and vertical shelves which constituted a steady support that prevented the wall from crumbling in.

To continue to move forward, Bai Lixin had to move the beam.
But to move the beam meant the walls collapsing because of the loss of support.

At this time, it would be nice if he could just slash through the beam.

Seemingly sensing Bai Lixin’s thoughts, the system’s voice rang out in his head.

[Ding! Friendly reminder: This is an intellectual task, there is no need to use weapons.
Do not rely on brute force to solve each task, players need to rely on wisdom to get the task item.]

Bai Lixin: [……]

Intelligence vs intelligence.

Bai Lixin retreated back to Dijia’s side.
As he stepped back, his feet stepped on something hard.

Under Dijia’s curious gaze, Bai Lixin bent down and fiddled in the ashes for a while, and then grabbed something.

The moment he grabbed it, Bai Lixin’s face showed a somewhat subtle expression, and the next moment, he slowly took out the thing and showed it to Dijia.

It was a bone.

The bone had been burned and it had lost the original luster.

[Ding! Warning! Warning! OOC warning! The character is timid and cowardly.
The common reaction to seeing a human bone is to cry.
Please try to comply with the character setting.
The countdown will begin, and the player will be issued a warning once the countdown is over without correction of the character.]

“……” Bai Lixin squeezed two bean-sized tears from the corner of his eye and said, “I picked this up.
It hadn’t aged, so the corpse was fresh.”

Dijia: “……”

Baby, can you not say such things while shedding tears? It’s creepy.

Bai Lixin continued to reach into the thick ashes while shedding tears, and not long after, pulled out more bones.

He cried, but dug with vigor.

After taking out four or five bones, Bai Lixin looked at the beam through his tears, and then looked at the shaky walls on both sides of the room.

He then took the bones to the beam while looking back at Dijia tearfully, “Come and give me a hand.”

Dijia: “……”

Bai Lixin moved a stone over, and then used the human bones to support the wall before pulling out the beam.

The wall overhead shook, but soon regained its calm.

Seeing the beam removed and the walls stabilized, Bai Lixin fixed more bones in place and finally took away the shelves.

In the live broadcast room.

[Let’s talk about God Xin’s knowledge of the use of leverage, gravity, support points, and other things.
That is a combination of mathematical knowledge and physical knowledge!]

[There is also architectural knowledge.]

[In that, learn mathematics, science and chemistry well, and you will not be afraid to go anywhere.]

[A certain scholar once said: give me a fulcrum, and I can lift the whole Blue Star.]

[It’s easy to say, but to be able to judge the support point with the naked eye in such a short period of time, and then find the right point of impact… Honestly, I felt that God Xin was a force value player, I did not expect him to be an intellectual one.]

[That is the biggest joke I’ve heard this year.
It is clear that God Xin relied on his intellect from the newbie mission in the beginning.
In the first task, he was the first to find the murderer.
In the trial copy, he found all the hidden tasks and even found the real evil spirit.
Not to mention, in the last copy, no extreme observation, fast reaction, and knowledge reserve could do what he did when dismantling that mechanism to the underground palace.]

[It’s because his force output is so amazing that it overshadows the light of his intellect.
I can only say that the literary and force value are what we call ‘awesome’, I love it!]

[He is not only good-looking but also smart.
Not only smart, but also powerful! Who says he isn’t perfect?]

[The only fly in the ointment is the luck value.]

[I’m laughing, the defense is broken.]

[Now that I think about it, it is truly pitiful, no amount of strength can save him from his luck value.]

The gap was not big, and it could only accommodate the slender Bai Lixin, so Dijia had to wait outside.

He observed Bai Lixin’s situation through the gap while gazing at the temporary fulcrum Bai Lixin had built by hand.

His whole body was tense and in a state of readiness.
Once he discovers a problem with the fulcrum point, he will support the beam and rescue Bai Lixin.

Because of the covering above, the inside was somewhat dim and only a faint ray of light shone in from the gap he had opened.

Compared to the outside which had been cleared, the ashes were thicker here because of the burial.

Bai Lixin took out the flashlight from his backpack, turned it on, and began to look for the hairpin the Taoist master had mentioned.

The countdown in the task bar had less than 5 minutes left.

Bai Lixin’s hand that was groping in the ashes suddenly stopped, and with a slight force, he grabbed something and pulled it out of the ashes.

It was a charred skeleton.

The whole body was now black, and it was still in a cross-legged meditation posture.
The head was slightly lowered, and the hands were clasped together as if he was holding something.

Bai Lixin’s flashlight shone in the hands of the charred corpse, and he found a metal hairpin in the hands.

With a sigh, he groped around the ashes again.

He fished out three more charred skeletons in a meditative posture.

It was not until there were no more skeletons in the ashes that Bai Lixin moved them to the gap entrance.

Although the gap was not large, these people were burned to the bone, so it was easy to send them out.

Bai Lixin tested the size of the gap and was ready to reach Dijia on the other side when the system prompt rang out again.

[Ding! Warning! Warning! Please note the character setting… The countdown will start…]

Bai Lixin felt the tears fall down again.

I’m numb.

He cried while shouting towards the outside, “Help me take these masters out.”

Dijia, who wasn’t aware of what had happened inside: “???”

Masters? What masters?

Then, in the next second, a charred skeleton was sent out.

Dijia: “……”

If there is one, call out “master,” would you?

Dijia picked up the skeleton, and thought it was all over when another “master” was sent out.

Dijia: “……”

When did I ever suffer this kind of grievance?

After the four skeletons were picked up, the countdown had less than a minute left.

Just when Bai Lixin was ready to step out of the gap, something cold suddenly wrapped around his ankle.

He looked down and saw two translucent white bones sticking out of the ground.

The two bones bowed to Bai Lixin and clasped together as if thanking him.

Seeing that the other party had no ill intentions, Bai Lixin no longer wasted time and hurriedly went through the gap.

The beams and walls around them were already crumbling.
While crying, Bai Lixin picked up a skeleton in each hand.
“Let’s go, my silly son.”

Dijia: “……”

As expected of you.

In the live broadcast room

[Hahahaha, the most pitiful face doing the most ruthless things.]

[Crying to finish the task.
What is this called?]

[What do you mean by a little crybaby? The kind that can beat people up.]

[There were four corpses in that corner, and earlier, God Xin pulled out several bones.
Is it possible that there were several people here when that fire started?]

[Moreover, there is no one in this temple except the little Taoist priest at the gate.
The old Taoist master is very mysterious, and the perceptive God Xin didn’t even notice when he appeared, which is weird.]

[Is he a ghost?]

The two crumbling walls collapsed at the same time with a loud “boom”.

Along with the loud noise, the ashes and dust on the ground soared into the sky.

The little Taoist priest finally heard a sound.
He grabbed a broom and stumbled his way to the inner hall, only to see a cloud of dust.

He stared at the scene in front of him blankly for a moment, then crumpled to his knees and murmured, “Master, master, wuuuu, master…”

Between his wails, two figures emerged from the settling ash and dust.

One was wearing a pearl white cheongsam, but the pure white cheongsam was stained with dirt because of the ashes, and his face was a little dirty.
But these couldn’t hide his beauty.
He ran while crying and was holding something in both his hands.

The other person looked cold and had an imposing aura.
He was also holding something.

The little Taoist rubbed his eyes, and as the two came closer, he finally saw what they were holding.

In an instant, the little Taoist completely broke down.

The two people who suddenly appeared in front of him seemed like gods descending from the sky.
They appeared so suddenly and rescued several masters from the ashes.

He watched with tears in his eyes as the two different but handsome men came to him.
The teary-eyed handsome man cried more than he was sad.

While crying, he carefully placed the skeletons in front of the little Taoist and choked, “This is what an old Taoist master asked us to get.”

Bai Lixin pointed to the hairpin that was tightly clasped in the hands of the Taoist priest and said, “*The dead are great, and it is safe to be buried in the ground.
The old Taoist said you will understand once you see this thing, wuu wuu.”

*A saying that the deceased should be buried as soon as possible as a sign of respect for the deceased and peace of mind for the living.

The little Taoist priest cried even more sadly, “I know, I know, it is a manifestation of the master! Can you stop crying for a moment?”

Bai Lixin, “Wuuu.”

I also don’t want to cry ah.

Dijia was dumbfounded as he looked at the two crying people.

He was speechless.

He frowned secretly.

Should he go with the flow and cry? Would it look too heartless to watch indifferently?

Never mind, he can’t cry, so be it.

In the live broadcast room.

[Hahahahaha! Help, God Xin is crying, but I just want to laugh.
What’s wrong with me?]

[Not just you.
Although the scene is very touching, I just want to laugh.]

[Laughing out loud, I think I saw the big boss try to squeeze out tears, but nothing came.]

[The big boss: I’m helpless.]

[Family, I’m going to laugh to death.]

The little Taoist went to collect the corpses, and Bai Lixin finally stopped the tears.

The system prompt suddenly rang out.

[Ding! Congratulations to the player for completing the task.
Congratulations to the player for unlocking the hidden plot of the Qinglian Temple.
The plot replay will now begin!]
