Chapter 8: Dig

Twenty-seven minutes passed, digging all over the parents' room, but Hua Yueling still found nothing. He inevitably felt anxious, the time passed by every minute, and the half hour stipulated by the test was coming soon.
"Not here, not there, Mom and Dad—" He stamped his feet madly, and a restless mood surged from the bottom of his heart. Thinking of what he had vowed to the young woman before, he became more impatient. "Damn it," Where is it?!"
"There are still three minutes left, host, take the last chance, you still have the possibility of passing the test." The calm voice of the young woman sounded in her ears, and she was still in a serious voice like an iceberg goddess. But there was a big turn of 180 degrees. "Haha, didn't the host say that it absolutely passed the test? Now? Do you want to say that kind of big talk? Hehe, it's really ridiculous, it's a laugh."
"!" Hua Yueling, who was originally angry because she couldn't find her parents, was even more angry when she heard her. He was about to refute a few words, the young woman's tone changed again, colder than the Arctic iceberg.
"As a reminder, the host's sister and parents are still in danger. If the test fails, they immediately die."
This sentence made Hua Yueling's anger that was on the verge of an explosion abruptly retreated. He suppressed his anger, and kept telling himself to be patient, for the sake of her sister and parents, she must calm down.
No longer paying attention to the ridicule of the young woman in his ears, he glanced at the time displayed on the phone screen, a minute passed in the blink of an eye, and he had the last two minutes left.
"Calm down and think about where Mom and Dad should be."
Patting his head, his gaze was constantly moving quickly in the room, looking for even the slightest clue.
"The bed is here, here is the wall—" he said in his mouth, his feet kept moving, trying to dig a few places to no avail, but he was still very calm. "Not on the bed, nor near," Then there is a high chance that it will be near the door."
Realization returned to the entrance, observing the crooked place after being excavated by him, he probably had some ideas.
"This way—"
The goal is chosen by him where he feels most likely. He has never believed in his own feelings like this.
The usefulness of the digging skills was beyond his expectation. His ordinary and extremely hands became stronger than the excavator under the function of the function, and he cleared the piles of stones in front of him in a short time. When the two figures appeared from under the stone, Hua Yueling couldn't help screaming in excitement, and at this time, it was only a dozen seconds before the end of the test.
"Dad, mom, wake up!" He knelt on the ground and helped his parents up, calling them to wake up in their ears. Excited, he had already forgotten what the young woman had said, no wonder the other party interjected without knowing it.
"The host's parents couldn't wake up before going out. It is recommended that the host don't bother. Besides, they are all injured. Shake them like the host and die before being rescued."
"Please, can you treat Mom and Dad?"
"No." The young woman bluntly refused, but she gave her own explanation, "The system energy is insufficient, and it takes all energy to treat the host's sister's injury. If the host needs it, people can only provide a little ability to treat them simply."
"That's it, please stabilize my parents' injuries first."
"no problem."
A faint light enveloped Hua Yueling's parents, and the light dissipated, representing the end of the simple treatment.
"They have stabilized their injuries, and there will be no more problems for the time being. As a reward for passing the test, I will treat your sister for the host next. Due to energy consumption, it cannot be completely cured. Please pay attention."
"sorry to bother you."
"Remind the host, it's best not to move your parents, just leave them here."
""
After being silent for a while, Hua Yueling agreed without asking why.
When she returned to her sister, the young woman was very trustworthy and treated her sister Huayun's injuries for him. When the dazzling light turned into small flashes of light scattered in the air, the wound on the abdomen of my sister healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. The spot of light dissipated in the air, and the wound that had originally penetrated was only a few scars left, leaving the only regret.
"Congratulations to the host for completing the system test task. The system is successfully bound and the test task skills are recovered."
After the test task was completed, Hua Yueling didn't feel so happy.
"As for all aspects of the system, the owner can call out the task panel to conduct research at any time. In addition, they are very tired and tired, so the owner should not wake them up when they are not talking, otherwise the anger of others will be very scary and very It's terrible." At the end, the young woman didn't forget to threaten Hua Yueling. Hua Yueling didn't care much about it here. What he cared more about was how the other party's transformation was so great. She was still an iceberg beauty before.
"Wait a minute, I have a question to ask before you rest."
"What's the question? The owner can ask whatever you want. Of course, people refuse to answer questions about privacy."
Ignoring the other party's pretense, Hua Yueling asked the question that had been buried in her heart for a long time.
"Are you a character like a system wizard? And your tone has changed too much, right?"
"Hey hey, um, this is something that people missed."
Just listening to the other party's voice, Hua Yueling's mind showed the cute look of her finger pointing her chin.
"The master guessed it is almost close. They are the system wizard of the system, guiding the growth of the master and judging whether the power of the system beyond the master's control can be used under certain conditions. The tone problem is not deliberate, but it is mandatory by the system. People don’t have the right to refuse. If the owner wants to blame, just blame the nasty guy who set up the function of the system. It has nothing to do with them."
After the system wizard dismissed her relationship, she stopped speaking. Even if Hua Yueling spoke to her, she didn't respond. She probably fell asleep as she said, Hua Yueling thought.
He squatted down and picked up his sister's body, the phone was put aside by him, the function of the flashlight was still turned on, illuminating this dim area for him.
Aware that his sister's eyelids were moving lightly, he thought it was her sister who woke up.
"Are you awake, sister?"
"Xiao Ling, we are here—" Raising her hand to cover her head, and shook it gently, Hua Yun opened her eyes. After seeing where she was for the first time, her head was still a little confused. Now, the house was hit by a meteorite, and we were buried underneath. No one came to rescue us yet? Sorry, Xiao Ling, somehow my sister fell asleep, leaving you alone, you must be very lonely. "
"Sister Yun--"Calling sister, Hua Yueling moved her body to make her sister feel more comfortable in her arms. His hands tried to touch her soft cheeks. "It doesn't matter, we will soon I can go out. I don’t feel lonely. Even if I fall asleep, sister Yun will stay with me."
"Really, Xiaoling, you've been like this since you were a child, and you've been too mature. At this time, it's obvious that your sister should comfort you. How come you comforted your sister." She grabbed her younger brother's face with her backhand and pulled hard. "Sister doesn't hate this feeling, just this time."
"I want to be someone who can protect my sister instead of being protected by my sister all the time."
"You have done it, Xiao Ling, no matter what you conceal, my sister doesn't blame you, you did a good job."
In the extremely quiet space made up of messy rocks, the siblings cuddled with each other, looking at each other with the light of their mobile phones. Time passed slowly, beside them both.
