Fang Yao looked at Yuan Xiao and said solemnly, “As long as you want to win, I will definitely help you get first place.”
“Of course I want to win.” Even if it was for points, Yuan Xiao also wanted to win first place.
Fang Yao’s expression became much more serious. He said to Yuan Xiao, “There aren’t many hiding places in this mountain. Other than trees, rocks, and grass, there are no other hiding places. There’s an abandoned small temple on the mountainside. There might be something hidden there.”
After Fang Yao finished speaking, he continued to search along the path. Soon, he saw a small red flag on a tree.
“Found it!” Yuan Xiao was a little surprised. He did not expect Fang Yao to be so good when he was serious.
Fang Yao climbed up the tree and handed the flag to Yuan Xiao before continuing his search.
“Brother Fang Ming and Brother Yue Ze are ahead of us. Could it be that they’ve already gotten the flag?” Yuan Xiao felt that whether they could find the flag was also related to their speed of climbing the mountain.
“It’s possible, but there are many paths in the mountains. I’m really not sure which one has a flag.”
Fang Yao felt that with Fang Ming’s observation skills, it would be easy to find the flag. However, he had never been the first place winner in previous years. Fang Ming must have deliberately gone easy on him.
Although there were not many people participating in the event this time, with Yuan Xiao around, Fang Ming would probably leave the opportunity for himself and Yuan Xiao.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the mountainside and saw the abandoned temple.
“Will there be any here?” Yuan Xiao felt a little tired. Although her physical fitness had been enhanced by the system, the long period of exercise was a little too much for her.
“There should be. Take a rest. I’ll go in and take a look.” Fang Yao could tell that Yuan Xiao was a little tired, so he entered the temple alone.
Yuan Xiao silently followed behind Fang Yao. She found the scene in the temple somewhat familiar.
“I don’t think I’ve been to any temple…” This familiar feeling made Yuan Xiao feel a little uncomfortable. Looking at Fang Yao’s back as he looked around, Yuan Xiao seemed to have an illusion. It was as if she saw Fang Yao kneeling in front of the Buddha statue and praying after he became an adult.
Yuan Xiao shook her head violently and regained her senses. In the original book, Fang Yao was just the second male lead who was trying to promote the relationship between the male and female leads. Why did Fang Yao always look miserable in her hallucinations?
“Xiao Xiao, I found it!” Fang Yao found a small red flag under the Buddha statue’s table and ran toward Yuan Xiao excitedly.
“Ah Yao, have you ever prayed to Buddha?” Yuan Xiao casually asked the question in his heart.
“No, I don’t believe in these things.” Fang Yao did not know why Yuan Xiao suddenly asked this, but he handed the flag to Yuan Xiao.
Upon hearing Fang Yao’s answer, the doubts in Yuan Xiao’s heart deepened. Under what circumstances would a person without faith sincerely pray? “If you really pray in front of Buddha one day, what will it be for?”
“For you.”
Fang Yao’s answer left Yuan Xiao in a daze. This seemingly joking answer made Yuan Xiao connect the previous dreams together.
In the previous few dreams, Fang Yao was crying in pain in front of the bed, and her perspective was from the bed. Fang Yao’s actions were indeed for her.
The system could not detect the reason why the dreams were formed, and Yuan Xiao did not know if these dreams were real or fake.
“What’s wrong, Xiao Xiao?” Fang Yao looked at the troubled Yuan Xiao and walked to her side with concern.
“I’m fine. Let’s go. Once we find one more little red flag, we’ll definitely win.”
Yuan Xiao sorted out his emotions and stopped thinking about these things.
Even if something bad really happened in the future, Yuan Xiao wanted to cherish her current life. She had already lived again and did not want to waste the happiness she had now.
With Fang Yao’s hard work, they finally found the third red flag in a small cave. Fang Yao sent pictures of the three flags in everyone’s group chat. The first place had already emerged, and everyone agreed to gather at the foot of the mountain.
“Why aren’t Zhu Zhu and the others back yet?” Yuan Xiao had not seen Meng Zhu, so she was a little anxious.
“It’s alright. She’s probably slower.” Fang Ming comforted Yuan Xiao. He was not surprised that Meng Zhu would arrive late.
After a while, Yuan Xiao finally saw Meng Zhu, who was carrying a backpack, and Yue Ping, who had a gloomy expression.
“How is it? Are you guys injured?” Yue Ze looked at his sister worriedly.
“No!” Yue Ping’s tone was very dissatisfied. She glared at Meng Zhu and complained, “All we did was eat along the way.. Those who don’t know would think that you’re a pig! “
