Chapter 6
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 gra.s.sy 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
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.

The sun started slowly rising high in the sky‚ as Feng mei and the rest started walking toward the mountain.
After some hours they reached the base of the mountain and started climbing upwards‚ as they climbed further the wind got colder and their view obstructed slightly due to the clouds.
Feng Mei and the three guards were rus.h.i.+ng forward and Cai followed behind them as he piggybacked Fu ya.
Soon they reached the peak of the 400 feet tall mountain.
Feng Mei and others walked ahead and slowed down as they reached the edge of the mountain peak.
He‚ and the others were stunned astonished as they gazed below while standing at the peak of the tall mountain peak!
They saw a beautiful scenery of Misty clouds‚ a clear waterfall‚ Trees 8 meters long‚ green gra.s.sy land and a yellowish golden light in the open ground where the jade stone was located‚ the light caused by the jade stone surface reflecting sunlight.
Feng Mei felt that this scenery looked just like a painting of an immortal dreamy land.
"There's no treasure here" said Harry and George simultaneously exhausted and out of breath.
Cai said"Since senior is recorded in the four realms as an eccentric character than‚
"This Serene and enchanting scenery is the treasure that senior left for the younger generation‚" Cai and Fu ya said simultaneously.
"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".
The system suddenly resounded the words written in the jade stone inside Feng Mei mind.
Feng Mei mind wheels started to turn and he went into deep thought. At first a complex mixture of multiple emotions could be seen in his eyes that started to calm down as he suddenly started to chuckle. He understood what was happening! They were merely wandering in a circle, fooled by the treasurer words and his narcissistic att.i.tude!
Fu ya and others directed their gaze toward Feng Mei and wondered why he started chuckling.
Feng Mei directed his smiled toward them and said "Follow me‚ let's go loot his treasurer"
After saying this he rushed down the mountain and the other followed him.
After walking for some kilometers‚ they reached the same place where the yellowish jade stone laid.
Feng Mei walked toward the jade stone and climbed up the yellowish jade stone.
He laid down on the jade stone and pulled the treasure map out of his robe. Holding the treasure map with both hands‚ he motioned it above his face such that the treasure map shadowed his face and blocked the sunlight showering down from the sky.
The scenery started to change in the treasure map after the sunlight showered on it.
In the new scenery a person stood in front of the hallow of a small rocky cliff‚ as if he is going to go inside it.
Oliver and others were dumbfounded and looked at Feng Mei with widely opened eyes!
"How did you find out that the map scenery would change when it's back is showered under sunlight," asked Fu ya to satisfy her curiosity.
"High above the ground and white meant mountain and cloud‚ we looked down below while standing at the mountain peaks and saw clouds‚ green gra.s.sy land‚trees and the jade stone‚ that are white‚ green‚ and yellow in color. A normal person will be blinded if he looked directly at the sun due to the intense light and hence will close his eyes‚ so something is needed to reduce the intensity of sunlight. Closed eyes can be opened while the gaze is still directed toward the sun if something blocks or lessen the intensity of sunlight. Since the treasure map is the only related stuff to Feng treasurer I used it as the medium‚ the map scenery changed and the path created by Feng treasurer appeared on the treasure map" Explained Feng Mei to Fu ya and others.
Fu ya and others stared at Feng Mei as he moved toward the hallow of the nearby cliff and kept on going through the open hallow whose another end also showed the same forest. Suddenly‚ his silhouette vanished right in front of Fu ya and other eyes astonished eyes.
"Go through the hallow‚ it will lead you to another world" the excited voice of Feng Mei resounded and Fu ya and her guard started moving through the hallow and soon traveled a spatial pathway into the pocket realm of Feng treasurer.
