Chapter 851 - 851: The Mountain is Hollow
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Halfway up the mountain, Le Yao stopped in her tracks. “This should be the place.”
Nangong Jue looked around. “If there’s nothing wrong with that sign, it should be here. But where’s the entrance?”
“Princess Dina.” Le Yao looked back at Dina. “It should be here, but there’s no door. What do you think we should do?”
Dina also hurriedly climbed up. She took out the treasure map and compared it. It should be here, but what about the entrance?
“Anyway, I’m already up here. I tried my best.” Le Yao sat down on a rock beside her. “As for you, do whatever you want.” Nangong Jue also sat down beside her.
“If you can’t find the entrance, you can’t leave.” Princess Dina looked at Le Yao.
“You make it sound like we can find it.” Le Yao rolled her eyes.
“Hurry up and continue searching. You’re his bloodline. There must be a guide,
so…”
Le Yao couldn’t help but roll her eyes. This princess’s mind was really strange. Would there be guidance just because they were related by blood? Was this the cultivation world? How did she figure this out? However, she also knew that this woman was crazy. If she didn’t listen to her, she might do something crazier. Hence, she could only get up and accept her fate.
There would be people moving around the islands near Hoss Island because there were flatlands and beaches on the island over there. They could also build docks, but not on this side. This was because the reefs blocked the boats and they could not dock at all. They could use those small boats to come over, but those small boats could not deal with the waves in the sea here.
Of course, they could also climb up like Princess Dina, but the environment here was not very good. There were no goods. What could they do if they worked hard to climb up?
Therefore, the area here had always been deserted.
There was another important reason, which was that this place was already in the public seas. Therefore, no government would come over to govern this place.
“Hubby, did you notice that this place is actually very strange?” Le Yao circled halfway up the hill and touched her chin.
“Yes.” Nangong Jue nodded. “Even if it’s by the sea, this is a mountain. There’s soil on the mountain, but there are no trees.”
“That’s the strange thing. It’s all stones.” Le Yao exhaled. “Then doesn’t this mean…”
“This mountain is hollow,” Nangong Jue added.
“So, this is really the place where the treasure is hidden.” Le Yao smiled. “However, how did my grandfather build a treasure vault in such a place back then? How big of a project is this? Besides, he definitely can’t do it alone. What about those people who worked on it? Don’t tell me they’re buried here like those ancient emperors? If we really find the door later, will we see a ‘big dumpling’ after entering?
“What are you thinking?” Nangong Jue laughed involuntarily.
Le Yao also smiled and felt that she was thinking too much. Then, she leaned against a rock beside her and prepared to rest.
However, the stone suddenly moved.
“Be careful.” Nangong Jue hurriedly reached out and pulled Le Yao over.
And the stone stopped moving.
Le Yao glanced at Nangong Jue.
Nangong Jue walked over and reached out to push the stone. As expected, the stone was turned around..
