6 Chapter 6: Small pocket realm (1/2)
”HaHaHa! congratulations for solving the most childish riddle of I the great Feng Treasurer‚ but if you think you can get your oily piggy hands on my treasures just by solving a riddle meant for a 5-year-old then you are surely retarded”
As he read out loud the word written on the stone slab‚ Feng ya eyes bulged with fiery intent and had a vein popping on her head.
While reading this he himself believed that he would have puked on Feng treasurer for his narcissism if he said that while standing in front of him.
After Feng Mei read all the words written on the jade golden stone‚ he together with Fu ya and her guard turned around to leave the forest and return back to the empire.
When suddenly‚ the jade stone emitted a yellowish glow that reached a radius of a meters.
The yellowish glow enveloped the entire stone‚ it started to dim and after a while the yellowish glow died down.
All eyes turned around toward the stone‚ and their gaze burned with intense emotion as they saw that the vulgar words previously written on the jade stone could no longer be seen‚ as if they never existed and totally different sets of sentences replaced them.
”High above the ground covered in white‚ looked down below and come into view white‚ green and yellow‚. Blinding lights yet still unblinded‚ closed eyes opened and appear the path created by I Feng treasurer”. Feng Mei read outwardly the word written on the jade stone.
”What does that even means!” said Fu ya while rolling her eyes and pouting‚ Her hairs were untied as her left hand held her hairpin.
Her hand which held the hairpin started to pull out a lot of her offensive Treasures from inside the spatial treasure. She wanted to spend them all in order to destroy the jade stone slab.
She would have probably used them all on Feng treasurer‚ if he stood in front of her!.
Cai had sweat rolling down his forehead as he looked at the thing held in Feng ya hand ”Young miss‚ Don't be rash‚ the stone may provide a clue toward the treasure” Said Cai as he stood behind her.
It interested in the drama‚ Feng Mei stood silent and still as he kept on pondering over the words written on the jade stone and tried to make sense out of it.
He has at least graduated from college in his previous life so he thought it wouldn't take that much time to merely solve a riddle.
Fu ya now knew that there existed a treasure and the words on the jade stone are the clue to it.
She now didn't want to give up on the treasure and go back after traveling hundreds of miles from ATA city to here and her guards couldn't return back without her.
She sat down on the grassy land closed her eyes and remained still‚ as she went into a deep state of meditation to calm her mind and ponder about the words that appeared on the Jade stone.
Cai stood still behind her as if to protect her from any harm‚ the rest of the guards started wandering here and there in search of clues.
Feng Mei looked at the map in his hand to look for some clue‚ he walked a little further away toward the direction of a big tree and suddenly he jumped toward the large tree whose height reached nearly 8 meters above ground‚ he used his hand and held the tree branch and propelled (pushed himself upwards) himself again and again like a skillful monkey and stood atop the large tree.
While standing above the tree his gaze wandered all around the forest as he looked for clues‚ and he saw a huge mountain covered in white Misty cloud that looked like a painting of a celestial abode.
The mountain is located at his eastwards‚ less than 10 kilometers away. Unknown though ran into his head and a emotion of complexity could be seen through his eyes.
He knew that the entire phrase written on he stone is basically a riddle and he wanted to solve it. He loved facing challenges.
According to the first sentence of words written on the jade stone ”High above the ground surrounded by clouds” Feng Mei believed that they needed to reach a higher ground nearby the stone.
He decided to move eastward and climb up to the peak of the mountain he saw. He fastly descended down the large tree‚ like an agile monkey‚ by jumping from one tree branch to another.
He walked towards Fu ya and her guards‚ pointed towards the East direction and told them that he saw a mountain some kilometers away surrounded by clouds in that direction.
”I believe that the first sentence of the jade stone refers to the mountain‚ as the mountain is high above the ground and covered in the cloud that is white” Feng Mei explained his conclusion to Fu ya and her guards.
”Well we haven't found any clues here” replied the guards to Feng Mei
”I also thought that we need to move towards the higher ground so we might as well follow your lead” said Fu ya.
