Before he could speak, Xia Tianqiong smiled and reminded him, "This is the most beautiful clay figure, voted by all the children. You voted for it too, so this clay figure is the most beautiful, and it's your mother."
The little boy didn't want to admit it, but that was his rule, so he stubbornly asked, "How do you know my mother's name?"
Xia Tianqiong smiled and turned to look at the female shop assistant not far away.
The boy's bizarre solution involved three key steps: first, sculpting a small figure out of clay; second, winning the competition; and third, finding out the name from the shop assistant and carving it onto the clay figure.
This way, the boy's rules can be broken.
Xia Tianqiong was able to successfully crack the code by combining the information on the notice board outside the door, the hints from the female shop assistant, and her experience from her second life.
The little boy was somewhat reluctant, but in the end he had to admit that the other person had broken his rules.
"Thank you, big brother, for helping me find my mom. This is for you."
He took something out of his pocket and handed it over.
Xia Tianqiong was a little surprised. She thought it was still clay to be shaped, but it turned out to be a cute pink hair clip.
"Is this a cursed weapon? What effect does it have?"
"Wearing it on your head increases your charm and approachability, and others will inexplicably feel good about you and think you are not a threat."
"That's nice. Can I wear it?"
The little boy pouted, "If the big brother turned into a girl, he could wear it too."
"Then let's forget about it! Besides, how could a boy have girls' things?"
Xia Tianqiong was just saying it casually; she wouldn't actually wear it.
The little boy's expression turned sad again. "It belongs to my sister. I'll never see her again. Keeping the hair clip with me will only make me miss her every day, so I might as well give it to you."
What happened to your sister?
Xia Tianqiong thought there might be follow-up tasks, so she quickly asked.
But the little boy, holding his "mother," turned and left without answering.
Xia Tianqiong looked at the other person's back and felt that this strange scene seemed to have many stories behind it.
He stopped dwelling on the matter and turned to face the ghost bride, saying, "Here, take the hair clip!"
The wicked bride smiled sweetly, "Please help me put it on, my lord!"
Although her current appearance is a transformation created using magic, it is almost indistinguishable from the real thing.
Xia Tianqiong held a pink hair clip and gently tucked it behind the ear of the eerie bride.
This was originally a hair clip worn by a little girl, and its design is very cute. Now, pinned to the head of the ghost bride, it looks somewhat playful.
"Thank you, sir. Are we leaving now?"
"No, I still have something to verify."
Xia Tianqiong glanced out the window, then slowly turned around, her back to the people outside.
Then he addressed all the parents and children in the room, "Everyone, is there anyone willing to make a contract with me? You can get this by making a contract with me."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and took out two ingots of ghost gold, holding them in his hands.
Because it faces away from the window, people outside cannot see it.
The parents and children in the room could see it clearly and sense the pure Netherworld power contained in the Netherworld Gold.
In an instant, all the strange creatures were filled with greed and ferocity, no longer resembling a human being as before.
They rushed over without realizing it, surrounding Xia Tianqiong.
They had a primal urge to steal it; it was a strange, instinctive desire.
But when they actually arrived in front of Xia Tianqiong, they all stood still, looking conflicted, and dared not make a move.
The rules do not allow it!
"Trying to steal it? Too bad I didn't trigger the rules, so you don't dare to make a move."
Xia Tianqiong stood there steadily, looking completely at ease.
A self-deceptive smile played on his lips. "As long as you form a contract with me, you can get a hundred taels of ghost gold from me. How about that? Pretty generous, right?"
He still wanted to try to see if all the strange creatures were unwilling to form a contract, or if there were any special beings among them.
The demons looked excited, but then their faces fell.
The young woman who had just left sighed, turned and left. The other strange creatures exchanged glances and also turned and left.
"Since bribery isn't working, I'll have to resort to force. It might hurt a little, but you asked for it."
Xia Tianqiong put away the Nether Gold, and his expression turned cold.
Outside the window.
Everyone applauded and cheered when they saw Xia Tianqiong break the boy's strange rules.
They were happy for themselves, not for him.
Next, the remaining people can follow his method to crack the rules and gain benefits. Those who entered before can also enter again to try and crack the boy's rules.
Everyone was happy.
Fu Qing approached Xiao Zijun with a grin, "Captain Xiao, our team has such a cracking expert. We'll be counting on him from now on. If there's another opportunity like this, make sure he's the first one to go in!"
Xiao Zijun laughed and scolded, "You think you're so cunning, huh? You don't need to tell me this!"
Everyone looked over and smiled knowingly.
"Look, he's up to something again!" someone exclaimed.
Xiao Zijun quickly looked over, his expression suddenly changing.
"Damn, he's asking for it! No, we have to save him."
