How can I add code to a numeric list's item without breaking the numbering?

Question

I'm trying to add code to a numeric list in Markdown (in the wiki of a BitBucket repository), but it break the numbering of the list: in the example below, item 3 starts with a 1.

1. item one

    text

2. item two

    text

```
#!ini
     code
```

3. item 3

I don't know how it works on Bitbucket, but on SO you can add code in a list by indenting it further. 8 spaces instead of 4. — deceze

Get rid of the backticks and simply indent your code by 4*(n+1) spaces, where n is the nesting level. In this case, the nesting level is 1, so you have to indent your code by 8 spaces.

1. item one

    text

2. item two

    text

        #!ini
        code

3. item 3

Test in the wiki of a BitBucket repo

The output is as desired:
