Chapter 142 The Great Treasure
"Is there something strange about this place?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Rugo's heart stirred, and she quickly looked around while taking the lucky charm out of her pocket.
Unbeknownst to her, she had already left the place where her fellow disciples cultivated on the mountain peak and arrived at an extremely remote place.
This wasn't the summit, but rather halfway up the mountain. She observed carefully but found nothing particularly unusual.
"Zhao Cai, come and look! Is there any strange thing here? Could there be treasure or a magic formation?"
Shen Rugo held the lucky charm in one hand, letting it examine the place carefully.
Now, she has great trust in her family's lucky charm, and the most powerful thing about the lucky charm is that it can break all formations.
After all, this is the core world of the Star Palace, and there might be formations here, with great treasures hidden beneath them.
She really hoped that she could find these secrets herself without the Star Daoist's intervention.
"Your Highness, walk forward, then turn left!"
As Shen Rugo was lost in her daydreams, Zhao Cai's voice rang out again.
"Fortune is coming! Could there really be a formation here, and a great treasure hidden beneath it?"
Shen Rugo was even happier now.
"I don't know either, but there's definitely something strange up ahead. Let's go take a look!"
Whether it will bring wealth is uncertain.
Shen Rugo strode forward and then turned left.
But after turning left and walking a few steps, you come to a mountain wall where there is no way to go.
"Zhao Cai, quick, take a look! Is there some kind of illusionary formation here?"
Shen Rugo stared at the mountain wall in front of her.
"Your Highness, this isn't a formation, it's just a wall! You seem to have gone to the wrong place!"
But Zhao Cai spoke slowly, his tone full of disdain.
"I went the wrong way? Wasn't this the way you told me to go?"
"I meant to go straight ahead and then turn left, Your Highness. You didn't just turn left; you went to the left front. Are 'turning left' and 'left front' the same thing?"
"Turn left, or left front, isn't that the same?"
Shen Rugo was surprised.
"Of course it's different, Your Highness. Why don't you go back the way you came and take a good look again!"
Zhao Cai flapped its featherless wings, seemingly quite helpless.
It has now discovered that its princess is usually quite clever, but she has some problems with finding her way around.
Of course, it didn't know that Shen Rugo was terrible with directions; she had a photographic memory for everything else, but she could never distinguish roads.
Knowing her own situation, Shen Rugo knew she had definitely made a mistake.
Quickly return to the starting point by the same route.
But upon returning, they discovered that they seemed to have never been to this place before.
Could it be a mistake again?
Shen Rugo's mouth dropped open.
"Your Highness, is this the way you returned?"
Zhao Cai looked around, somewhat bewildered.
Shen Rugo said she would return the way she came, but it clearly saw that she didn't return the way she came; instead, she went to another intersection.
"Did I take the wrong path again, Zhao Cai?"
Shen Rugo felt a little wronged. She really didn't mean it.
"Your Highness, can't you even tell the difference between these two intersections?"
Zhao Cai finally couldn't hold back any longer.
It seems like their owner really has some mental issues.
"But I clearly went back the way I came, so how could I be wrong!"
"Alright, Your Highness, why don't you go back the way you came!"
"If I go back the way I came, there seem to be three intersections ahead. Am I making a mistake again?"
Shen Rugo was completely bewildered. As soon as she turned around, she saw three intersections in front of her and had no idea which intersection she had come from.
"Alright, Your Highness, let me tell you. Slow down, don't rush around. I didn't even see you clearly before you passed by!"
At this moment, Zhao Cai suddenly felt a little sad.
Does the owner of this house really have a problem with his brain, unlike the mother he painstakingly hatched and the mother he chose most?
He even signed a human-animal equality contract with her. Could it be that he was being too clever for his own good and got himself into trouble?
Finally, with Zhao Cai's guidance, Shen Rugo quickly arrived at another location.
This time she was more careful, and she carefully looked around no matter which intersection or place she went to.
Although she has no sense of direction, she is very smart and has memorized all the intersections she has seen.
You absolutely cannot make another mistake, or be looked down upon by Zhao Cai.
Sure enough, soon, guided by Zhao Cai, she arrived at another mountain wall.
"Zhao Cai, is this the place you're talking about?"
Looking at the mountain wall, Shen Rugo was surprised, feeling that it was no different from the previous one.
To her surprise, the little chicken in her hand didn't answer. Instead, it flapped its two featherless wings forcefully and charged towards the mountain wall, its tiny beak pecking fiercely at the wall.
"Zhao Cai, watch out!"
Shen Rugo was startled.
After all, Zhaocai was too weak, and she was really worried that it would crash into the mountain wall, get a head injury, or even die on the spot.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Cai pecked at the mountain wall, instantly creating a hole. At the same time, its head stuck out of the hole, but its body below the neck got stuck.
Thus, the scene of the lucky card being stuck in mid-air, kicking its legs wildly, reappeared.
Is there really a formation here, and another world beneath it?
Could this really be a treasure trove? Am I going to strike it rich this time?
"May wealth come to me! This name is perfect; it will surely bring me riches and prosperity!"
Shen Rugo's heart was in her throat; she was incredibly excited.
"Your Highness, please save me!"
Just as she was lost in thought, she heard Zhao Cai's cry for help in her mind.
"This little thing has gotten itself stuck again!"
Shen Rugo quickly reached out and carefully pulled Zhaocai out by its bottom.
She was really afraid that she would use too much force and hurt her lucky charm, which was her precious treasure.
Zhao Cai also sensed her gentle change.
It seems that last time it got stuck, Shen Rugo roughly pulled it out by its leg, without any regard for its pain.
As soon as Zhao Cai was pulled out, Shen Rugo looked through the hole and saw that there was something else inside.
The mountain wall we just saw was not a real wall, but a magical illusion created by an array.
"My house is incredibly lucky in attracting wealth, and may my wealth continue to grow!"
Shen Rugo held the lucky charm in her hands and shouted excitedly.
Then, amidst her cheers, she held the lucky charm in both hands, letting its little beak peck incessantly at the mountain wall in front of her.
One mouth, two mouths, three mouths; one hole, two holes, three holes.
Finally, after working for half a day, they managed to dig out a large hole, big enough for one person to go in.
"Great, we can go in now!"
Shen Rugo quickly bent down and crawled into the hole.
Once inside, my eyes lit up.
Sure enough, there was another world inside.
It was pitch black from the outside, but once inside, it turned out to be a space about ten feet in diameter, with a huge luminous pearl in the center, shining brightly.
While excited, Shen Rugo looked back at the black hole she had just crawled into.
The black hole is still there.
Shen Rugo couldn't help but look at Zhao Cai.
"Zhao Cai, you spent so long pecking a hole, why didn't you just break the formation directly instead of making me crawl in through the hole?"
