A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 457 Little Fool

"Just park here."

Halfway through the tunnel, Sophia suddenly pointed to the emergency parking space on the side and said.

"We'll walk the rest of the way, but it's not too far. If we park there, it will cause trouble for others."

"Yeah." Leon parked the car quickly, then looked in the rearview mirror to make sure there were no cars coming from behind. Then he opened the door and got out of the car with Sophia on the left and right. Before getting out of the car, Leon did not forget to turn on the double flash lights.

After all, safety comes first.

Then Sophia took the lead and led Leon towards the area that she dared not set foot in again.

After Sophia stopped, Leon subconsciously turned his gaze to Sophia.

What I saw was not much different from the scenery I had seen along the way. The only difference was that the mountain wall here showed signs of subsequent repairs. Apart from that, there was nothing special.

Sophia walked to the repair site, squatted down, and buried her head in her legs. It was obvious that she still couldn't look directly at this place.

Leon didn't say anything. He walked forward and squatted beside Sophia, gently patting her back to soothe her emotions, and always being alert. After all, he didn't know what unusual actions Sophia would take in the next moment.

Fortunately, Sophia was just in a low mood and did not do anything out of the ordinary. After a long time, Sophia, who had recovered a lot, raised her head and said to Leon with a slightly choked voice: "Thank you."

"It's okay." Leon said to Sophia with a smile, then stood up and stretched out his hand.

"Shall we search for this final treasure together and see what it holds?"

"Yeah." Sophia nodded seriously, then grabbed Leon's hand and stood up, then looked around firmly, trying to find the treasure marked in this place.

But seeing that there were no compartments or places to hide things around, Sophia looked confused.

Leon was much more decisive than her. After looking around and not seeing anything special, he took out his pickaxe and smashed the newly repaired area.

"Bang frame"

A series of crisp sounds echoed in the tunnel, scaring Sophia. After seeing Leon's rough method, instead of worrying or dissuading him, she clapped her hands and said, "Yeah, why didn't I think of hiding here?"

"I hope so. Don't take it apart and not see anything. There shouldn't be any cameras nearby." Lyon continued to chisel at the repaired wall, and did not forget to look up at the surroundings. After all, what he was doing was a crime of destroying public facilities.

This repaired wall was unexpectedly strong. Lyon's steel pickaxe would take three hits to hit the metal ore, but it took him a long time to hit this place.

This also made Leon certain that there must be something in it, otherwise it would not be so hard. Of course, it is not ruled out that the pickaxe is actually effective against ores and ineffective against other things.

Fortunately, after knocking open the repaired wall, what was revealed inside made Leon breathe a sigh of relief. The treasure was really there.

Sophia, who was standing by, also saw the small box and frowned, saying, "It's so small?"

"Maybe the things inside are very precious." Leon reached out and took out the box, only to find a letter underneath the box.

After putting the letter away, Leon handed the box to Sophia.

"Come open it and see what's inside."

"Ah."

Sophia did not refuse. After all, the guy who provided the treasure map deliberately chose this place as the location. Sophia wanted to see what was inside that made him go to so much trouble.

The box was not locked. With a light rub, the lid of the box was opened, revealing a translucent diamond-shaped crystal inside.

"What is this?" Sophia looked at the crystal in her hand in confusion, not seeing anything special about it. "Don't worry, let me see what the letter says."

Lyon didn't know the meaning of this thing, but fortunately there was a letter under the box, so Lyon thought the letter should contain an explanation of this thing.

Lyon:
I'm glad that you got the first treasure, much faster than I expected. But this is just the beginning. The next treasure map is also in the letter. Keep looking for the surprises I prepared for you.

--together"

The letter only contained this brief sentence and another treasure map. Apart from that, there was no explanation at all about the crystal in the box.

Lyon felt a bit of a headache when he saw this. It seemed that Mr. Qi had prepared more than one treasure, which was a good thing, but it was very uncomfortable if he didn't explain what the contents of this first treasure were.

Could this also require Leon to decipher? But there wasn't even a hint, no clue how to decipher it. Or was this thing actually the key or the gateway to the next treasure?

"Let me see this thing." However, Leon had a backup plan, which was the system, so he and Sophia asked for this crystal.

Sophia handed it to Leon. Leon, who was just trying it out, actually saw the introduction given by the system on the crystal.

"Resurrection Stone (???): A special stone called Resurrection, which actually has no relevant effect at all. However, holding this stone, you can see the soul of the person you want to resurrect in your dreams."

"Mr. Hissy has also read Harry Potter?"

When Lyon saw the description and name of this crystal, his first reaction was to complain about it.

However, according to the system's introduction, this stone is obviously much more humane than the Resurrection Stone in Harry Potter. At least the people you see are not imaginary, but a real prop that can communicate with the souls of the deceased.

Mr. Qi specially prepared this stone, and the meaning is very obvious. This stone is not prepared for Leon, but for Sophia.

Although Leon could also use this stone to talk to his grandfather, Sophia needed this stone more than his grandfather who would appear in the third year, so Leon gave it to Sophia.

"Take it. After you get some sleep in the car, you'll understand the significance of this stone."

"What is the use of this stone?" Sophia was extremely curious when she saw that Leon seemed to know the secret of the crystal just by taking it.

"You will understand if you follow what I say. This is a surprise. Besides, you have wronged Mr. Qi." Leon shook his head without explaining. Only when Sophia tries the resurrection stone herself can she understand the meaning of this stone.

"So mysterious." Since Leon didn't say anything, Sophia had no choice but to hold the crystal tightly. It looked like crystal, but it was warm in her hand and not uncomfortable. Instead, it felt slippery.

"Now that the treasure has been found, shouldn't you fulfill your promise?" Seeing that Sophia was holding the resurrection stone while he only got the treasure map of the next treasure, Leon felt a little bit at a disadvantage, so he needed a little compensation.

"Uh" Sophia also remembered the bet between her and Leon. Now Leon completed the bet first. According to the agreement, she now has to call Leon brother.

But if Sophia really wanted to shout, she would be too embarrassed to speak, and Leon's expectant expression also made Sophia feel Leon's expectation.

"Brother! You little fool! Don't even think about me calling you that!"

After stammering out half of the words, Sophia couldn't bear the shame anymore. After a yell of exasperation, Sophia made a face at Leon and then ran towards the car.

In the face of Sophia's cheating, Leon didn't intend to do anything more than shrug his shoulders.

He had long understood that beautiful women could be deceptive, so he wasn't too surprised at this moment.

However, Leon still has some opinions about Sophia's new name for him. He can tolerate not calling him brother, but what the hell is "little fool"?
