Chu Danqing was in a ruined temple, looking at the main task, his expression slightly strange.

"The good news is that the talent task does overlap with the trial task."

"The bad news is... what is this asking me to go grave robbing?"

"This is an illegal and disciplinary thing; it's going to eat prison food and step on a sewing machine." Chu Danqing joked.

After choosing the identity, messy feng shui knowledge emerged in Chu Danqing's mind, and at the same time, he knew the situation of this trial world.

It was similar to the warlord era of the Republic of China; planes and cannons had already stepped onto the stage, and cold weapons had been phased out.

The lethality was stronger, but it was also more money-burning.

Casting silver coins itself required technology and silver mines, so many warlords set their sights on the funerary objects in ancient tombs.

The four major sects of Moving Mountains, Unloading Ridges, Gold Touching, and Hairpin Finding were constantly prospering and branching out under market demand.

"A formal worker is different; the information given is more detailed, and they really give you knowledge." Chu Danqing only felt that Paradise's treatment was truly good.

The Paradise Points used were the same, but the things obtained were more, although there was also the reason that Paradise Points followed his rank appreciation.

"But the problem is that you gave me this feng shui knowledge, but I don't know how to use it at all." Chu Danqing looked slightly helpless.

Knowledge, this kind of thing, wasn't that you would know it after memorizing it.

But Paradise didn't care about these; Chu Danqing paid, and Paradise gave you the corresponding treatment; other things had nothing to do with Paradise.

At this moment, Chu Danqing was in a ruined temple, with a pile of ashes in front of him, which was the firewood that had burned out.

His gaze swept across the ruined temple; there was a deity statue without a head, just sitting quietly on the altar.

Da Bao, however, kept his eyes fixed outside the ruined temple, and a threatening warning emerged from his throat.

At this time, it was raining heavily outside, and thunder flashed from time to time.

Just hearing a boom, in the thunder, Chu Danqing saw a blurry figure standing in the rain outside the temple.

Seeing this, Chu Danqing retreated behind Da Bao.

"What's the situation?" Chu Danqing asked.

"It is, a dead person." Da Bao answered Chu Danqing's words.

The next moment, the figure stood abruptly on the threshold of the ruined temple.

At this time, Chu Danqing saw its appearance clearly; the half-rotten skin was full of maggots, looking like it had just been dug out of a grave.

Combined with the worldview of this trial world, there really was such a possibility.

"Male corpse; from the clothes, it doesn't seem like a wealthy family." Chu Danqing saw that the person was only wearing hemp clothes.

"A breath of air couldn't be swallowed after death, which is why it became a rotten corpse."

"The fastest way to solve it is to break the evil spirit in the chest."

Don't ask Chu Danqing how he knew these things; the knowledge sent by the identity had them.

The feng shui knowledge of this world wasn't just feng shui; it also involved some very underworld-related things about dead people.

"Da Bao, give his throat a hit." Chu Danqing gave the instruction.

Da Bao rushed out suddenly, and the rotten corpse also moved at the same time, just seeming a bit like a bully.

Didn't dare to choose Da Bao, but chose Chu Danqing instead.

It was just that the speed was a bit slow, and Da Bao's sharp claws pierced the rotten corpse's throat directly.

The black rotten aura surged out instantly, covering the entire ruined temple with a foul smell.

At the same time, the rotten corpse turned into a pool of pus and collapsed, even the bones melted away.

Only the clothes remained mixed in it.

Da Bao's face changed; he ran behind Chu Danqing decisively, and his big head was covered on Chu Danqing's back clothes, covering his nose.

"Ugh~ smelly..." After Da Bao finished saying this, he vomited on the ground directly.

Chu Danqing's eye twitched; Da Bao's perception was strong, and his sense of smell was even more sensitive; being choked head-on certainly couldn't be held.

"Da Bai, put up a shield." Chu Danqing sighed; a shield could effectively isolate it.

Da Bai stretched out two heads, directly overflowing with range healing, Spirit Art + Dao Foundation, making Da Bao have two layers of shields on his body.

This allowed Da Bao to recover.

"Must find a way to train your perception problem." Chu Danqing muttered; this was considered finding another weakness of Da Bao.

Normal people could overcome it, but Da Bao's IQ was only five years old; it was a bit forced for a nearly three-meter-tall five-year-old child to have much self-control.

"You go rest to the side; I'll see what's there." Chu Danqing said to Da Bao, then began to check the pus.

He found a talisman made of a pangolin claw from the clothes.

"Gold Touching Talisman? It's actually a Gold Touching Captain." Chu Danqing recognized that this Gold Touching Talisman wasn't a fake, but a grave robber with a proper apprenticeship, according to the feng shui knowledge.

However, the other party had folded their halberd and sank into the sand here.

"Besides that, there are no other clues." After Chu Danqing finished speaking, he dealt with the pool of pus emitting a foul smell.

It was raining heavily outside, and he didn't plan to act immediately.

Mainly because he didn't know which direction to go; leaving rashly would easily cause trouble.

The pus was washed away by the rain, and Chu Danqing used the Five Elements Primal Spirit to clear the foul smell in the ruined temple.

Da Bao was able to sit down and eat snacks.

Things had reached this point, so he could only eat snacks first.

Seeing this, Chu Danqing didn't say anything, just lit a pile of fire and opened the public communication channel.

It was cold and clear, with no one talking, but he could see the number of people.

This time, including him, there were three hundred and twenty-one people; because they chose different identities, their drop locations were also different.

Actually, this was good news, otherwise, if there were too many people, it would be hard to avoid conflict.

After about fifteen minutes, the heavy rain gradually decreased to a stop, and the thunder had already hidden.

It was just that the weather was still gloomy and lifeless.

"Let's go, go out and see the situation." Chu Danqing said, got up, and summoned the Beast-Faced Armored Warrior.

As soon as the armored warrior and the warhorse came out, they radiated an aura of killing and cutting.

This came from the aura pressure amplified by the perception attribute passive.

After coming out, under the control of the Beast-Faced Armored Warrior, it slowly converged and returned to its original appearance.

"My Lord." The Beast-Faced Armored Warrior bowed and greeted after being summoned.

"Set off; don't ask me where I'm going; we'll just follow the road." Chu Danqing said.

The feng shui knowledge content was limited, and the identity information didn't tell him where to go, only some settings.

Task-related things could only be found by himself.

After getting on the war chariot, the charioteer armored warrior drove the war chariot along the road at the gate of the ruined temple down the mountain.

The ruined temple was on a mountain, appearing somewhat desolate.

And looking down from the mountainside, one could see a small village.

Chu Danqing planned to go to this small village first to inquire about some information.

However, while rushing along the road, the road was blocked by a coffin.

From the traces, it seemed to have been washed here from somewhere because of the heavy rain.

Chu Danqing narrowed his eyes: "First a Gold Touching Captain, then a coffin blocking the way."

"Let the Ghost Grudge Infant go take a look." Chu Danqing saw that the coffin lid had disappeared; he suspected that the thing in the coffin had already run away.

In the shadow, a Ghost Grudge Infant crawled out from the arms of the Ghost Grudge Mother, flew toward the coffin quickly, and then jumped into it.

About ten seconds later, the Ghost Grudge Infant grabbed an embroidered shoe from it.

And in infant language, indicated that there was only this one shoe in the coffin.

"The coffin was already empty before it was washed here." Chu Danqing couldn't see anything.

But if the logic was correct, the Gold Touching Captain might have been killed by this thing in the coffin, and then became a rotten corpse because he couldn't swallow that breath.

"Go down the mountain; it must have run into the village." While speaking, Chu Danqing burned the coffin to ashes with the Fire Element Primal Spirit.

As for the embroidered shoe, keep it.

See if it could fish that thing out.

If it was strong enough, it would be another treasure chest.

As for the previous rotten corpse, if it were in the reserve tier, it would be at least an ordinary-tier treasure chest.

But now it was Rank 1; ordinary-tier treasure chests were no longer produced; the lowest were Excellent-tier treasure chests, so naturally, there was no drop.

"Da Bao, can you smell the scent?" Chu Danqing asked.

"No, water, washed, the scent." Da Bao shook his head.

First of all, this wasn't the first scene, and secondly, there was heavy rain.

Da Bao's sense of smell was based on the perception attribute, not a conceptual ability, so it was naturally limited.

Perhaps he could smell some clues after reaching 30 points of perception attribute.

"Hmm, I understand." Chu Danqing didn't force it, and then put the embroidered shoe in his pocket.

It would be interesting if hands or hair stretched out from the shoe.

Because next door was the imperial edict of the Son of Heaven, which not only contained the Son of Heaven but also ten burly Yellow Turban Warriors.

So it was best if it was just an ordinary embroidered shoe, otherwise the outcome would definitely be miserable.

Chu Danqing was a good person, but none of his summoned objects and allies were good people.

"Let's go, go down the mountain." After Chu Danqing finished speaking, the charioteer armored warrior drove the chariot down the mountain again.
