"Speak, what do you want me to do?" Shale said straightforwardly.
"Be a villain," Li Xiu laughed.
"What do you mean?" Shale looked at Li Xiu with confusion.
"Have you heard the story about a pious believer encountering a flood, and then a plank floated over? The believer didn't swim towards the plank with all his might, because he firmly believed God would come to save him. After a while, a vine appeared in front of him; if he grabbed the vine, he'd be able to save himself. Yet, the believer kept waiting, believing God would save him. Finally, a boat passed nearby; he just needed to call out loudly to be rescued, but he still didn't do it—he was waiting for God to save him."
"He ended up drowning. After dying and meeting God, he earnestly asked God why He didn't come to save him despite his devout faith. God answered, saying, 'I saved you three times: I sent you a plank, arranged vines for you, and even sent a rescue boat. What more do you want me to do?'
