Not long after, the housekeeper dragged the garbage truck to the public restroom to collect the body.

As before, he dragged the body into the room behind the black iron door, and came out after a while, and the garbage truck was empty.

Thinking of the urn still stored in his system space, Yan Shaoqing went directly to the grove behind the mansion, intending to find a cemetery with good geomantic omen.

All the trees in the forest are pine trees, about several meters high, with luxuriant branches and leaves, lush and green.

But these are clearly no ordinary pine trees.

The bark is rust-like reddish brown, and from the wound where the bark peels off, you can see the blood-like bright red color of the trunk inside.

Not only the trunk is red, but even the pine needles are red, with thick red sap overflowing from the slender tips, like grease, looking like needles full of blood.

Not long after entering the pine forest, Yan Shaoqing received a system prompt.

[System Friendly Reminder: Your teammate Nan Gongque found a key clue, an empty tomb, in the servant cemetery deep in the pine forest. 】

Although Yan Shaoqing didn't understand the map drawn by the butler, he had a little impression of the spatial distribution of the two Chinese characters "cemetery".

Speaking of geomantic treasures, what better place to bury ashes than a ready-made cemetery?

Yan Shaoqing originally planned to watch it, but he didn't expect Nangongque to go ahead.

Following the direction in his memory, he walked through the pine forest for several hundred meters, and the pine trees gradually thinned out, revealing an open field.

Dozens of earthen graves were piled up messily in the open space, and beside each grave stood an unnamed tombstone engraved with mourning words only.

Nangong Que was sitting on one of the tombstones, holding a shovel covered in mud with both hands, leaning forward, resting her chin on the back of her folded hands, scanning the direction of the pine forest boredly.

The mound next to the tombstone had been dug up, and a one-meter-deep pit had been dug. Loose loess was piled up on one side like a hill, and the pit was empty.

Seeing Yan Shaoqing coming out of the pine forest, Nangongque stood up, held the shovel in one hand, pressed down hard, and pressed it into the soil.

"I knew you would definitely come when you received the system prompt." Nangong Que's green eyes flashed, and she smiled as expected, "So I dug a hole and waited for you here."

Yan Shaoqing walked up, looked at the hole in the ground with satisfaction, took out the tea pot containing the ashes from the system space, and carefully handed it to Nangong Que.

"You take this."

"Premium Pu'er?"

Nangongque took the tea pot with her free hand, tilted her head, and blinked suspiciously.

What do you mean by flattering and giving tea early in the morning?

Could it be that Mengxin on the opposite side saw his identity as an old player and rushed to give gifts to flatter him, but the gift was not enough and it was too chilling.

"The grass died miserably." Yan Shaoqing answered Nangongque's doubts in time, and looked at the hole at his feet in silent mourning, "Since you have dug the hole, good people will do it to the end and bury it together Alright."

Nangong sparrow: ...

The smile on Nangongque's face froze, her fingers trembled, and the tea pot almost fell into the pit.

【…】

【Nan Gongque: If I go down with this shovel, you may die. 】

[If it wasn't for the system that stipulates that players in this game can't kill each other, the boss of Nangong might just bury this stupid and cute little brother in a pit and let him die worse than weeds. 】

[xswl, I said, why does he always take a tea pot? The original intention is here, the little brother is really unique in his actions. 】

[Wait, didn't the moldy tea brother in it be dumped into the trash can long ago?Where is the grass? 】

[What's so nonsense, the newcomers here are still messing around?The live broadcast room of White Rose next door has guessed the key clues, and maybe the side mission will be opened soon. 】

[White Rose is worthy of being an experienced veteran player. Last night, the female ghost took turns blinking in each player's room, hinting crazily. Other players were in a daze, and only White Rose understood. She guessed that the frequency of blinking corresponds to the light. The flickering frequency, even memorized the position of the lamp, and now I am trying to find a way to remove the lampshade. 】

[I have an impression of this incident. At that time, the little brother thought it was a ghost who had trachoma, and even wrapped his head with a pillow towel, so angry that the female ghost ran to his bedside in the middle of the night and howled. He was so scared that he lay on the bed and dared not move. Later, it seemed that I fainted from fright, simply 233333~]

Outside the game, in the live broadcast lobby.

The old players stood in front of the live broadcast screen of White Rose, all nervous and envious.

There are some side quests hidden in some escape games. Although they are not easy to trigger and complete, the rewards are often more generous than the main quests.

White Rose was able to meet this time and push it out. Not only was he lucky, but his strength was also there.

In the game, the lobby on the first floor.

Li Yongchang acted as a human ladder, dragging the white rose to stand up. After a lot of effort, he finally took off the lampshade with the hexagram pattern printed on it.

Bai Meigui held the lampshade and looked inside excitedly, her face suddenly sank.

How could it be possible that the lampshade contained nothing more than ordinary plaster?

According to her analysis, there is a high probability that it should be human ashes.

She stretched out her fingers and rummaged through the ashes on the wall, but there was nothing but ashes, and she didn't receive any system prompts.

"Damn it."

Bai Meigui whispered with a cold face, could it be that she really guessed wrong this time?

Not only White Rose, but even the tens of thousands of viewers in the live broadcast room were dumbfounded.

----

The tea pot lay quietly in the pit, and Nangongque, holding a rusty shovel, was digging the soil like a bullied migrant worker, trying to fill the hole he dug himself.

Now he is playing the role of a talkative rookie younger brother. Before the curtain call comes for the good show, he can only bite the bullet and continue acting.

Yan Shaoqing leaned against the unnamed stele on one side, and studied it twice with a green grass blade sandwiched between a red pine needle, but he didn't find anything special, so he threw it away.

A gust of wind blew through the forest, and the green leaves of grass drifted past. Nangong Que was taken aback for a moment, lowered her head and sighed deeply, and continued to bury the pit resignedly. Since the child entered the game, he only had to play with others, not It's been so hard.

"To be honest, I was shocked when I saw this hole for the first time just now." Yan Shaoqing raised his eyebrows leisurely, and said jokingly, "I thought you dug the hole in advance, waiting for me to go inside Jump."

"Brother Yan..." Nangongque chuckled inexplicably, "You really know how to joke."

The pit was gradually filled, and a small hill protruded. Nangongque patted the ground with the back of the shovel to compact the soft soil, so that the dug grave looked similar to other graves from the outside.

Seeing that Nangongque had already finished finishing work, Yan Shaoqing straightened up, stepped on his feet as he approached, and asked doubtfully: "It's the first time you entered the game, how dare you be alone in a deserted cemetery in forests and old forests?" Digging graves, aren't you afraid?"

The corners of Nangongque's eyes twitched, and he calmly wiped away the two footprints that Yan Shaoqing stepped on with the back of the shovel, and said quietly: "No matter how courageous you are, you are not as courageous as Brother Yan. In the middle of the night, the black light is blind." , dared to go out alone to dump the ashes, and even triggered a side mission, which is really enviable."

Yan Shaoqing was not too surprised by what the other party said.

The members of the team already share information, and the things he did last night really failed to hide from Nangong Que's eyes.

The two could see it clearly, but the audience in the live broadcast room was suspicious.

[What, the little brother triggered a side mission?When did it happen?I've been lying in his live broadcast room, why didn't I see it? 】

[In front, you forgot the 20-minute snowflake screen last night? 】

[But isn't it impossible to leave the room at night? Where did he get the life-saving props?Think carefully. 】

[So, the side mission of White Rose was actually cut off by this rookie brother?I said how could there be plaster dust in the lampshade! 】

[The side quests are more difficult than the main quests. It may not be a good thing for newcomers to accept them. Don't accidentally put your life in it. 】

[By the way, I seem to remember that if the player who receives the side mission dies, the side mission will be automatically transferred to other members of the group. With such a big piece of pie, do you think Nangong will not be tempted? 】

[I have already lit the candles. 】
