Treasure Hunt in the Yard
"Yeah … …" Mengyao couldn't help but feel tempted by Yushu's words- it was true that the key was in Shu's hands, and Lin Yi wouldn't be able to open the chest even if he managed to dig it out. "Maybe we should let him try while we rest? I'm a little tired, what about you? "
"I'm a little tired too- let's get Shield Bro to try then?" Yushu wouldn't have been so happy to see him come back if she wasn't tired, calling him over so urgently.
"Yeah, you call him then." Mengyao nodded. "We don't know when we'll find it if we keep digging like this." “
"That's right! We don't even know where it's buried, the map we drew when we were kids isn't working at all … … "Yushu wiped the sweat off her forehead, and a few more mud marks appeared … …
"You're still talking about it? Look at that stupid map you drew, it'd be a miracle if we could find it! " Mengyao waved the map in her hand. "I said it'd be fine, I'd be able to find it, my ass … …"
"Alright, Yao Yao, let's not talk about me- I was only eight years old back then, it's already pretty good that I could draw something like this … …" Yushu took the map back embarrassedly before pulling on Mengyao's arm … …
"Don't touch me … … Ah … …" Mengyao realized that Yushu had left a few mud marks on her arm.
"What's up?" Lin Yi locked the car door and walked over to see Yushu and Mengyao whispering to each other. He didn't know what they were talking about.
"Lin Yi, help us dig for treasure!" Mengyao said as she handed the Luoyang shovel to Lin Yi.
"Dig for treasure?!?" Lin Yi's eyes went wide as he rubbed his ears, wondering if there was something wrong with his hearing. "Where?"
"Over here!" Yushu pointed at the ground in the yard.
"In the villa's yard?" Lin Yi blinked. "You're not kidding, are you? How could there be treasure in this villa's yard? Did you two watch too many movies? This villa was only built about ten years ago. How could there be treasures? "
"Of course, we … …" Yushu was about to say "we buried it" when Mengyao stopped her.
"If we say there is, then there must be!" Mengyao glared at Yushu. She couldn't tell Lin Yi that they were the ones who buried the treasure. What if Lin Yi dug it out and took a peek?
"Alright." Lin Yi looked at the two girls' strange expressions and could only nod. Anyway, if the Miss asked him to dig, he would dig. It didn't take much effort. "Where should we dig?"
"It's in this courtyard. Dig as you see fit." Other than the Luoyang shovel, Mengyao also had some simple pickaxes and ropes.
"Shield Bro, here's another treasure map!" Yushu said as she handed the treasure map she drew when she was young to Lin Yi. "Take a look at it!"
"Okay." Lin Yi nodded as he took the map and got to work.
Mengyao rolled her eyes at Yushu helplessly and pulled her a few steps away. "Are you stupid? How could you give that map to Lin Yi? "
"Oh … … It's fine, I'm the one who's embarrassed, I drew it … …" Yushu didn't care at all. "I thought it'd be easier for him to find it with a map. He'd have no clue at all!"
"You're the one who's embarrassed, yes, but giving Lin Yi a treasure map … Isn't that telling him that we're the ones who buried the treasure?" Mengyao said helplessly. "What if he sees what's in there? Can you afford to lose face like that? "
"I can, can you?" Yushu nodded.
"......" Mengyao wanted to stomp Yushu to death! "You can, but I can't … …"
"Hehe, it's fine, Yao Yao. Don't forget that we have the key!" Yushu waved the key in her hand.
"Alright … …" Mengyao didn't have a choice- she couldn't just ask for the map back, could she?
"Yao Yao, don't think so much- Shield Bro isn't the type to peep into other people's privacy- he wouldn't open it if he saw a lock." Yushu comforted.
Mengyao nodded. Indeed, Lin Yi didn't seem to be the type to peep into other people's privacy- she and Shu lived upstairs, but Lin Yi hadn't gone up even once. Leaving General Weiwu there seemed to be an unnecessary move.
Mengyao and Yushu went back to the villa to rest. They'd been digging for a long time- they'd been digging for the whole afternoon yesterday, starting right after Lin Yi left. Today, they'd been digging for the whole day.
Both of them were covered in sweat and dirt. Yushu was in a worse state, with mud marks all over her face. The first thing they did was to rush to the bathroom on the second floor to take a shower and change their clothes.
Lin Yi waited for the two to leave before picking up the map Yushu gave him. He almost fell to the ground when he saw it! Was this a map? Was there anyone more retarded than this?
On the map, there was a drawing of a dog. From the looks of it, it should be a smaller version of General Weiwu. Maybe it was the dog's younger self? Next to General Weiwu was a sandbag, and opposite the sandbag were two school bags!
The location of the treasure was in the middle of these three things! Triangulation was quite accurate, but where would Lin Yi find these things now?
General Weiwu was alive, and it could move! The sandbag had been tossed thousands of miles away, and these two school bags should be Mengyao and Yushu's, right? Maybe they were broken and thrown away!
Lin Yi was speechless. Only Yushu could draw a treasure map like this. It was too awesome! No wonder they couldn't find anything even with the map. It was as good as not having it!
Young Miss had really arranged a difficult task for him!
Lin Yi frowned as he looked at the treasure map. He didn't move immediately. Lin Yi didn't have the time to turn every inch of the yard upside down. He had to think of a shortcut!
Lin Yi threw away the Luo Yang shovel in his hand. He didn't know where these two girls got such a rare thing. Did they watch too many TV dramas? They weren't going to rob a grave, so why did they get a Luo Yang shovel? A shovel was more than enough to dig in one's own yard.
Of course, Lin Yi didn't know that this Luo Yang shovel was obtained by Faubert after a lot of effort. The Miss called him to ask for a Luo Yang shovel. Faubert asked her what she was going to do, and she said she was digging for treasure.
Faubert didn't dare to ask too much. What if it was a secret? So he used his connections and finally got a Luo Yang shovel …
