Wanbao Lady

Chapter 7 Treasure Hunt

After the high priest got ashore, he headed straight for the center of the village on the east bank.

Although the three village chiefs were reluctant in their hearts, they still had to put in enough effort to show their support.

"High Priest."

The three of them bowed in unison.

"Ah."

The high priest raised his chin and nodded imperceptibly.

"I heard that you found a treasure on Yudu Mountain?"

He didn't waste time and went straight to the point.

The Sanming village chiefs looked at each other and saw bitterness in each other's eyes.

"Yes."

Li Decai replied.

The high priest put his hands behind his back and calmly ordered: "Bring it to me and let me see it."

Although he was very reluctant, due to his status and strength, Li Decai still signaled to the villagers behind him with his eyes.

The villager nodded and turned to leave.

After a while, Li Dali and several other members of the immortality-seeking team arrived.

He held the rejuvenation bottle tightly in his hand, and veins on the back of his hand were bulging.

"Show it to me."

The high priest gave the order as a matter of course, not caring at all about the gloomy faces of the people present.

Li Dali clenched his other hand into a fist.

But in the end, he let go.

"Yes."

He spread out his hands, and the skinny monkey following the high priest stepped forward immediately and grabbed the rejuvenation bottle.

The bottle is smooth and feels warm to the touch.

What a wonderful baby!

Skinny Monkey admired in his heart.

Then he presented the treasure to the high priest with both hands with a flattering look on his face.

The high priest gave him a look that said "you're on to something, kid" and took the rejuvenation bottle with his right hand.

He looked at it carefully.

But apart from thinking that the bottle was beautiful and delicate, I didn't notice anything unusual.

Such a treasure, but there is not even a trace of spiritual energy fluctuation on it!

How strange!

He said to the skinny monkey, "Go, get a bucket of water."

The skinny monkey did as he was told.

Soon, he fetched a bucket of water from a nearby house and placed it before the high priest.

The high priest tilted the bottle, but nothing happened.

Is it because I am not tilting it at a high enough angle? Is the fairy not showing?

he thought.

Then he simply turned the entire bottle upside down.

However, one second passed, and then two seconds passed.

Until a minute passed.

Nothing came out of it either.

Veins gradually appeared on the high priest's forehead.

"You're playing tricks on me!"

He was about to smash the bottle to the ground, and the villagers who saw this scene became nervous.

"do not want!"

Li Dali shouted.

Li Decai was standing closest to the high priest. After all, he had been in the army before, so he quickly stopped the high priest.

"Absolutely not!"

He took the high priest's hand.

In a hurry, he gripped the high priest's wrist with such force that it hurt a little.

This old guy is still so strong!

The high priest complained in his heart, but finally stopped.

These people are so nervous about this bottle, could it really be a treasure?

The high priest thought in his mind.

When the others saw this, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"let go!"

The high priest waved his sleeves and Li Decai's hand was shaken away.

"I am sorry for the inconvenience. This is really a treasure of the immortal family, and it cannot be dropped!"

Li Decai cupped his hands to show his apology.

The high priest looked at everyone with eagle-like eyes, and his gaze made everyone feel frightened.

"If it's true, then why, when I used this thing, it didn't have any effect?"

The high priest said coldly.

"this......"

The villagers looked at each other.

Only the five members of the immortality-seeking team and the three village chiefs were sweating.

They looked at each other quietly, their faces struggling.

After seeing this scene, the high priest had nothing to understand.

He glared and shouted in a harsher voice: "Well, are you hiding something from this priest?"

Several people were startled by the sudden increase in volume, and some timid villagers were so scared that they sat on the ground.

The whole place fell into dead silence.

Seeing this, the skinny monkey immediately followed suit and shouted, "The high priest is asking you questions, are you all dumb?"

The villagers huddled like quails, except for the five members of the immortality-seeking team and the village chief and his two companions, who lowered their heads, hiding their resentment and anger.

The high priest glanced at everyone, snorted coldly, and then released his aura.

Although he hasn't reached the bone-forging stage yet, he is still half a cultivator after all.

Moreover, he has been in a high position for many years and lives a comfortable life, so his arrogance has naturally developed.

The invisible aura pressed down on everyone, and their backs unconsciously hunched a little.

"If you don't speak, I'll make you really dumb!"

Hearing this threat, some villagers looked towards the village chief and his two companions for help.

Some villagers even advised: "Village chief, are you hiding something from the high priest? Let's tell him everything, ah."

Seeing someone come forward, others also said:

"Yes, village chief, just say it."

Li Decai turned his head and glanced at the people who were talking, and found that they were all villagers whose crops had been saved by the rejuvenation bottle.

I'm so angry.

But soon, he felt a sharp gaze directed at him.

This was the high priest putting pressure on himself.

Li Xiaoman, who was standing behind him, looked at his grandfather's back which was gradually hunched under the pressure from the high priest, and he gritted his teeth and became ruthless.

"It's a spell! The treasure has a spell!"

he shouted.

"What spell?"

Li Xiaoman lowered his head and dared not look at anyone.

"Spring is back, everything is coming back to life. Just recite the spell silently."

The high priest nodded and looked at Li Decai meaningfully, "Your grandson is much more sensible than you."

Li Decai silently tightened his crutches.

The high priest chanted a spell silently and tried it, and immediately a drop of crystal green liquid dripped out of the bottle.

Sure enough, it really works!

Humph! These peasants are really cunning. Fortunately, I was smart and tried it myself.

If I hand it over to the river god without knowing the reason, I will probably get a scolding.

After seeing its effects, he naturally put the treasure into his sleeve.

"This treasure is magical and should be presented to the Lord River God!"

When everyone heard this, they looked dissatisfied, but they did not dare to get angry.

"Absolutely not!"

Li Decai took a step forward.

"This item was loaned to us by the immortals on Yudu Mountain. We must return it after use. We have no problem offering other items to the river god, but we absolutely cannot give this item!"

Li Decai begged desperately.

However, the high priest asked instead: "Are you going to betray the Lord River God?"

Once this hat is put on, who dares to admit it?

"Of course I don't dare to do that."

Everyone shook their heads quickly.

The high priest snorted again.

"Not the best. Don't forget, you are the people of the river god. If you have any good things, you should offer them to the river god."

He bowed in the direction of Mule River.

Li Zhao, the head of Shuiluo Village, stepped forward and said, "May I ask the high priest, if the immortals on Yudu Mountain find out and blame us, what should we do?"

The high priest glanced at him and said, "The Lord River God will make the decision."

Although he also saw the buildings on Yudu Mountain, he did not take them seriously.

Isn't it just a house?

The Lord River God also has an underwater palace!

If that so-called immortal comes to ask for it, let him come!

Anyway, the River God will deal with him.

Lord River God is very powerful!

The high priest was full of confidence.
