Chapter 237: 237?Can’t you be more reliable?! (Part 2)

Lu Shu carried the motorcycle and dashed all the way. He could remember the route they took to get to their tents. He just had to run along 109 National Road to get to Sun-moon Mountain.

Although he didn’t know where the said magical item was hidden, he estimated that the area wasn’t too big as they had mentioned that they could settle this in one night and rejoin the tour group before they set off the next day.

And Lu Shu felt that with his ability to sense magical energy waves, he should be able to sense whatever that could be sensed by the compass which was mentioned by Li Dian.

In the past, Lu Shu always took his ability to sense energy waves for granted and assumed that everyone could do it as well. Only now did he realize that this was actually an ability on its own!

And only till now did he understand what Jiang Shuyi had said: The heavenly network sent two sensory-type practitioners to Luo Cheng to investigate the case of the relic. In actual fact, he himself was a sensory type.

Lu Shu dashed forward with all his strength. Many drivers witnessed this sight of Lu Shu carrying a motorcycle but even then, he was as quick as the wind. The weight of the motorcycle was really too light for him.

The internet was too advanced now. The citizens of Qingzhou immediately started spreading information amongst their chat groups: Someone carrying a motorcycle is actually running madly along 109 National Road. He is so fast that his face cannot be seen clearly. He’s suspected to be a daoyuan student but he could even be a practitioner of a high level within the heavenly network!

The chat groups in Qingzhou aside, people on the Golden Foundation were discussing this incident. In the end, even the heavenly network over at Qingzhou was alarmed: could it be a student from the local daoyuan class? After some investigation, they realized that this guy wasn’t local…

The heavenly network immediately sent people over to 109 National Road, hoping to stop this guy before he reaches Xijing City.

They split into two groups. One group set up a roadblock at the entrance to Xijing City while the other group was responsible for going over to the road to search for clues and traces of Lu Shu.

But when they had just started to move, Lu Shu had already arrived at his destination.

When he reached the foot of Sun-moon mountain, he hurled the motorcycle aside. His race was against time now. He had to search this place for clues before Liang Che and Li Dian arrive.

If he really couldn’t find anything, he had to count on the hard work of Li Dian and Liang Che. Lu Shu would thank them thoroughly for looking for the item for him.

As to the possibility of him watching them take the item away right in front of him… Lu Shu expressed that he had never been such a generous person…

The hidden item didn’t belong to anyone. It belonged to whoever manages to grab hold of it…

He scaled the mountain right after dumping the motorcycle. All this while, he stayed cautious and aware of his surroundings for any suspicious occurrences.

The current Sun-moon Mountain had become a tourist attraction long ago. The entrance ticket cost around 40 dollars usually.

Someone once asked what would become of the poet Li Bai if he lived in the present world. Someone else answered: He probably wouldn’t be able to afford the price of entrance tickets when he travels the greatest sights in the world…

This was a practical and realistic situation. Everywhere with a decent view was turned into a tourist attraction. Entrance to some places would easily cost tens, a hundred or even hundreds of dollars. At this time, it was really impossible to visit scenic places without money…

Of course, this did not mean that such unreasonable prices were imposed everywhere. After all, workers were required to maintain the hygiene and cleanliness of these attractions. The maintenance and repair of important architectures also required money.

But, since it was classified as a tourist attraction, it should have been renovated. If something was really hidden here, wouldn’t it be found during the renovation?

No. Li Dian was firm and confident. The item is still here!

Lu Shu stood on the ridge between Sun mountain and Moon mountain and focused on sensing the changes in magical energy nearby. Suddenly, he opened his eyes and looked towards Sun mountain. He could feel surges of abnormal energy waves being emitted from the center of the mountain.

He ran towards the mountain, towards the source of the emitted magical waves.

But when he reached the source of the waves, he realized that it was just an ordinary hill. There was even weed growing and it didn’t look like anything out of the ordinary.

Lu Shu was curious so he placed a foot on the ground. With his current strength, he could cause a depression in the ground.

Dong! A sound could be heard as he stepped onto the ground. Lu Shu was frozen, was it empty inside?

He retrieved a spear from his seal of lands and with a few strokes, he dug up a portion of the ground and in time, a metal plate was found deep within the surface!

There really was a hidden item! Lu Shu was extremely delighted, the information was reliable!

He analyzed the situation around him, making sure that there was no one around before sending his celestial energy into the spear. Without using any effort, he pierced through the plate and went inside.

Lu Shu turned on the torchlight on his phone. What came after the metal plate was a long tunnel towards what seemed to be like the interior of the mountain. He walked deeper inside but just as he took his first steps, sounds of traps could be heard.

Phew! Phew! Phew! A few arrows were shot outwards from within the tunnel. This sort of booby trap was nothing to a practitioner. Even Li Dian would be able to handle these traps with ease.

This was the evident difference in generations. Before the era of magical revitalization, just like the difference in technology, people were still using flames. In the current era, people were already inventing bullets. It was a different class altogether.

It was a straight route forward. Lu Shu realized that not much thought was put into designing this. The tunnel led straight into the heart of the mountain. There was a stone room in the middle, and on a podium was half of a bronze mirror.

This sort of success felt as if… whoever designed this didn’t really worry about people sneaking in. It seemed as if the booby traps were haphazardly designed as if this half of a bronze mirror wasn’t important.

Lu Shu thought about the myth tour guide Wang mentioned earlier. The Tang emperor bestowed Princess Wencheng with this precious mirror, mentioning that she would see her father in the mirror when she missed him.

But when Princess Wencheng reached Chiling, she didn’t see anything upon looking at the mirror. Fuming, she smashed the mirror into two pieces…

Keke, this was the main gist of the story. Lu Shu suddenly thought, could it be that this precious mirror could really show a person’s desires? But during the era of weak magical energy, it couldn’t be used?

After all, this half of the bronze mirror was emitting actual magical waves!

Lu Shu walked over to pick up the half of the bronze mirror but it didn’t seem like anything special. He sent his celestial energy into the bronze mirror to see if anything out of the ordinary would happen. At that instant, the bronze mirror actually lit up!

Yes, it lit up!

At that moment, Lu Shu felt like he was facing the sun! It was extremely blinding at that moment!

Damn, Lu Shu teared up. His eyes were fine, but the light was really too blinding.

How did you ancient equipment users function? There was the head-twisting gourd and now the eye-blinding bronze mirror. Could you research into something useful?

Can’t you be more reliable?!
