Chapter 1566 Question and Answer (1/2)

Li Du grew more and more serious. However, Maung Kyaw Zin started to laugh. Hearing Li Du's words, he became more and more amused.

”What are you laughing at?” Li Du asked.

Maung Kyaw Zin laughed harder and said, ”You are getting ahead of yourself. You are a smart alec.”

Li Du also laughed, but it was a cold chortle. ”Ha, you are just trying to cover things up. My guess is right. You know that there is a jade mine on the mountain. So did your father and grandfather. This is your family secret, isn't it?”

Seeing that he was serious, Maung Kyaw Zin finally stopped laughing. He said, ”Your imagination is too vivid. That's not true.”

Li Du said, ”After I manage to dig out the jade, we'll see.”

Hearing that, Maung Kyaw Zin suddenly became angry. He said furiously, ”You are still trying to bluff. And you said that you are not here in Wooku Town for the jade mine!”

Li Du said, ”I'm not here for the jade mine, that's true. However, I know the position of the jade mine. I can confirm that there must be a jade mine on Dena Mountain!”

Maung Kyaw Zin said in shock, ”How can that be, how can there be a jade mine on Dena Mountain? Why are you so sure?”

Li Du replied, ”I have evidence. I came across a piece of map coincidentally. This…”

”God!” Maung Kyaw Zin stood up in shock. ”You, you… you got a map? Not a map! You got a very valuable jade sculpture! The Mystical Jade of Dena Mountain is in your hands?!”

The reaction of Maung Kyaw Zin shocked Li Du. He was incredulous.

He was troubled because he had spilled the beans. Although Maung Kyaw Zin looked innocent, he was actually very cunning. He had managed to draw that piece of the secret out from Li Du's mouth.

Besides, Maung Kyaw Zin had already known about the existence of the jade sculpture that Tang Chaoyang gave Li Du. He also knew that there was a jade mine hidden on the Dena Mountain!

In fact, there was nothing shocking about that. It was obvious that the jade sculpture was a treasure. Perhaps it had never appeared before the public, but there had to be people who knew about its existence. The stories about the jade circulated all over the place.

However, Li Du had no idea what the piece of jade represented. He did not know what emotions it inspired in people or what had happened in the past relating to it. Hence, he could not acknowledge that.

Instead, he said, ”What's the Mystical Jade of Dena Mountain? Is it a jade sculpture depicting the mountain?”

Agitated, Maung Kyaw Zin nodded, ”Yes, yes, yes. Do you have it? Let me look at it.”

Li Du shook his head. ”No, it's not with me. I've only seen it and taken a few photos.”

Saying that, he lifted up the phone in his hand again.

Maung Kyaw Zin reached out to take the phone. ”Let me look at it. Let me look at the photo. Where's the sculpture? Tell me, where's the sculpture?”

He moved very swiftly. However, if he wanted to take something from Li Du's hands, it was only his wishful thinking.

Li Du took a step back and pocketed the phone. He said, ”Don't be anxious. Looks like we have bumped into many mysteries. I have some questions and so do you. Let's help each other to answer them.”

Maung Kyaw Zin thought for some time. Then he took a deep breath and said, ”Alright, I…”

”Let me ask first,” Li Du said. ”What's with these big ants?”

Maung Kyaw Zin replied, ”I don't know either. There is a legend about them in my family. There are also some legends regarding the Dena Mountain in the Wooku Town. However, my family thinks that these ants are the Gods of Dena Mountain!”
