Chapter 18
They explained the worried villager that all the bandits have been killed‚ As they started digging up the ground burying their fallen companion into the guard.
Some heaved a sigh of relief‚ seeing their loved ones returning alive from the battle‚ while others cried seeing the body of their loved one lay unmoving.
Aunty Liu fell unconscious due to overwhelming grief‚ while chief zhang continued to dig a grave for his son alone and then buried him as tears of sadness hung upon the corner of his eyes.
The village chief turned towards Feng Mei and bowed till his head touched the ground.
"If it weren't for Brother Feng Mei‚ this village would have probably been destroyed‚ this grat.i.tude‚ zhang will never forget," said the village chief in a sorrowful voice as tears due to sorrow and grat.i.tude p‚ finally ran down his eyes.
Seeing the actions of village chief‚ all of the villagers turned towards Feng Mei‚ bowing their head in front of him and said.
"Many Thanks‚ Young master Feng Mei".
Right after these words came out‚ the entire world stopped‚ everything turning into a white Mist right in front of Feng Mei eyes‚ As he got pulled upwards.
Looking downwards he saw‚ that even Feng ya and her guards‚ all of them had vanished.
________________
Feng Mei found himself standing upon a cloud‚ as white Mist surrounded him‚ as far as his eyes could see. He started walking on the clouds and soon a mile away‚ he saw a silhouette of a person‚ Feng Mei started rus.h.i.+ng toward that direction.
He covered the distance of a mile in mere minutes and reached behind the man.
He saw the board back of a man clothed in white clothes with a table In front‚ sitting inside of an open pavilion made out of wooden planks‚ as
The man appeared to be waiting for Feng Mei‚ as soon as Feng Mei reached behind him‚ the man as if he has eyes behind him knew Feng Mei have appeared‚ he motioned toward Feng Mei with his hand and spoked"Come sit".
Feng Mei went ahead‚ inside of the wooden plank and sat down.
Looking straight at the man‚ Feng Mei saw an extremely handsome face‚ as if an immortal from heaven‚ his oval-shaped face with smooth chin and white skin‚ black eyes‚ and long black hair‚ as his long black hair slightly covered the right side of his forehead.
A huge black mark on his glabella‚ as straight above that point his head was adorned with crystal-like mark of different color.
"Senior is?" politely asked Feng Mei‚ since he definitely didn't want to offend someone‚ using mystical arts he didn't even have knowledge of.
"You already have met me in the village‚ can you guess who I am," said the handsome man as he lightly smiled.
Feng Mei looked confused unable to provide an answer‚ as he didn't see any man that could be as handsome as the senior in front‚ in chrysanthemum (ju hua) village.
"I am one of those‚ with whom you have spent most of your time in the illusion array"
"Feng ya and her guards‚ hmm Uncle zhang‚ lady Yu yan‚ aunty liu‚ little treasure‚ wait are you little treasure? and what happened to Feng ya and her guard? where are they?" muttering out the name of all the people he was close to in the illusion‚ Feng Mei finally realized that Feng ya and others weren't here.
"Yes‚ I am little treasure‚ and don't worry‚ they are merely lying unconscious outside this array"‚ replied the handsome man‚ little treasure‚ with a tranquil face.
The senior‚ basically little treasure‚ looked at the Misty and cloudy path ahead‚ while sipping wine from his jade cup‚ as his emotion changed from Serene to pa.s.sionate‚ and his voice volume increased‚ becoming louder and louder‚ after each sentence.
"Carefreely‚ Drinking wine above the misty mountain peaks
Singing war songs before reaching the battlefield!
A spear in hand‚ Thousand enemies ahead
Fiercely Charging ahead‚ unaware‚ whether the future holds life or death!!
Hundreds of sword Dances‚ like cherry petals carried along the wind
A breathtaking scene‚ reaping lives Of living beings!!!
A cup of wine accompanied by a smile on face‚ meant respect and admiration!!
A cup of wine Accompanied by a frown‚ meant certain death!!!!
Ask the heaven‚ and the Lord of the land‚ Who steal their hidden treasure
Thousands of mile‚ ahead of I‚ none dare mention about their treasure!!!!
Nurturing talents across the realms
Praises for my name sung for all eternity!!!!!"
The senior finally ended his poem‚ as he looked at Feng Me with squinted eyes.
Feng Mei from his information obtained by Feng ya‚ realized that the person in front of him is none other than Feng Cáiwù zhǔguǎn.
Using poems to introduce himself‚ really eccentric‚ Feng Mei though in his head
"I can read your thoughts‚ you know? said little treasure with a slight smile‚ not minding about Feng Mei thought.
"Cough‚ cough" Feng Mei faked some cough‚ to hide his embarra.s.sment.
"So little treasure you are senior‚ Feng treasurer?" asked Feng Mei slightly surprised.
"yes‚ but I am merely the materialization of his split soul‚ that he projected into the array‚ left sealed here for hundreds of years‚ until the arrival of you six‚ you can refer to me by my t.i.tled name or by my birth name" expecting such an answer‚ the senior explained.
Feng Mei was surprised multiple times‚ ever since he came into this world‚ so hearing words about soul projection‚ he was once again surprised‚ his blood boiling‚ his intention clearly appearing on his face‚ wanting to experience the wonder of this world himself.
"Little treasures why did you pull me here?"Asked Feng mei‚ curious about the reason of him being here‚ talking to a legend.
