Black Myth: The Legend of Tianpeng Seeking Demons
Chapter 221, Elephant Mountain
The three walked along the village streets, with both Bihan and Bishu remaining skeptical about the location of the "Four Seasons Harmony Jade" that Zhu Feifei had mentioned.
"Do you think that drunkard's words are credible?" Bi Han frowned slightly, her tone tinged with doubt. "He reeks of alcohol and is out of his mind. Maybe he's just talking nonsense."
“Exactly, you can believe what a drunkard says? I bet it’s all made up!” Bishu chimed in, her tone full of disdain. She crossed her arms, looking haughty. “I’d rather use ‘Great Sun Burns the Heavens’ to burn all the demons and monsters around here. I refuse to believe I can’t find the ‘Four Seasons Harmony Jade’!”
"Hey, don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive!" Zhu Feifei quickly stopped him. He didn't want to see the two goddesses fighting and making things worse for the world.
"That drunkard may seem unreliable, but since he mentioned the 'Four Seasons Harmony Jade' and Zhu Jiuyin, he might actually know something! Better safe than sorry! Besides, we don't have any other clues right now, so why don't we go and take a look? What if we actually find it?"
"Hmph, I think you just want to slack off and don't want to put in any effort!" Bishu snorted and pouted.
"Hey, little girl, you can't say that!" Zhu Feifei shook her finger, putting on a profound look. "What's this called? This is called wisdom! Do you understand wisdom? All brawn and no brains, that's just brute force! Someone like me, Old Zhu, who has both courage and strategy, that's what you call a wise man!"
"Tch, you call yourself a wise man? I think you're more like a 'spider-pig'!" Bishu retorted mercilessly.
"You!..." Zhu Feifei was speechless, only able to stare blankly.
"Alright, you two stop arguing." Bi Han interrupted their quarrel. "Let's go take a look first."
"Sister is so wise!" Bishu made a face at Zhu Feifei.
"Hmph, I can't be bothered arguing with you!" Zhu Feifei snorted, then asked, "By the way, where exactly is the 'Four Seasons Harmony Jade' that the drunkard mentioned?"
“He said…” Zhu Feifei recalled the drunkard’s words, “The ‘Four Seasons Harmony Jade’ is hidden in… hidden in…”
He frowned, trying hard to remember, but he just couldn't recall it.
"Where is it hidden?" Bi Han and Bi Shu stared intently at Zhu Feifei, waiting for his answer.
"Oh dear, what a blockhead I am!" Zhu Feifei slapped her forehead and said in annoyance, "I was so busy drinking that I didn't remember!"
"What?!" Upon hearing this, Bihan and Bishu almost fainted.
"You idiot! How could you forget something so important?!" The exasperated voice of the Ring Spirit Little White echoed in Zhu Feifei's mind. "You're really infuriating this fairy!"
"Hehe, don't rush, don't rush, let me think about it, let me think about it..." Zhu Feifei smiled awkwardly, and then began to rack her brains.
He scratched his head, then his ears, and then spun around on the ground, leaving Bihan and Bishu completely bewildered.
"This idiot, has he gone mad?" Bishu muttered under his breath.
"Shh, don't talk, let him think it over," Pi Han said.
After a long while, Zhu Feifei suddenly slapped her thigh and said excitedly, "I remember now! That drunkard said the 'Four Seasons Harmony Jade' is hidden...hidden in..."
"Where is it hidden? Tell us quickly!" Bihan and Bishu asked in unison, they were also getting a little nervous.
“Hidden in…hidden in…” Zhu Feifei suddenly stopped, then looked at Bihan and Bishu with a mischievous grin.
"Hidden in the Four Elephant Mountains!"
“Four Symbols Mountain?” Bi Han and Bi Shu exchanged a glance, both seeing doubt in each other’s eyes.
“That’s right, it’s Four Symbols Mountain!” Zhu Feifei said triumphantly. “The drunkard said that the ‘Four Seasons Harmony Jade’ is hidden in the ‘Yin-Yang Spring’ of Four Symbols Mountain!”
“Four Symbols Mountain? Yin-Yang Spring?” Bi Han muttered to himself, “How come I’ve never heard of this place before?”
“This is the first time I’ve heard of this either,” said Bishu.
"Hehe, you're right not to know!" Zhu Feifei said, "This is exclusive information from that drunkard; he wouldn't tell just anyone!"
"Do you know where this Four Symbols Mountain is?" Bi Han asked.
“Well…” Zhu Feifei stroked her chin, “That drunkard did give me a map, but…”
"But what?" Bishu asked.
“But this map is a bit strange…” Zhu Feifei said, taking out a crumpled piece of parchment from his pocket and handing it to Bihan and Bishu.
Bihan and Bishu took the map, opened it, and were immediately dumbfounded.
On this parchment were some crooked lines and some strange patterns, which looked like a child's doodles.
"This...this is a map?" Pi Han asked with a look of doubt.
"It's the real deal!" Zhu Feifei said confidently. "This was painted by that drunkard himself, who said it was his family heirloom!"
"I think he's just a drunkard. This piece of paper is too rough to even wipe your butt with!" Bishu said bluntly, and was about to throw the map away.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't throw it away!" Zhu Feifei quickly stopped her. "This is the only clue! What if that drunkard is telling the truth?"
"You actually believe his nonsense?" Bi Shu looked at Zhu Feifei with disdain.
"Whether we believe it or not, we'll have to go and see for ourselves," Zhu Feifei said. "What if the 'Four Seasons Harmony Jade' really is hidden in Four Symbols Mountain? Wouldn't we be missing a golden opportunity?"
After pondering for a moment, Bi Han said, "Alright, let's go take a look at Four Symbols Mountain. But don't blame me if this map is fake!"
"Don't worry, I've got it covered!" Zhu Feifei patted her chest and assured her.
So the three of them followed the directions on the map and headed towards Mount Sixiang.
Along the way, they encountered many people suffering from the imbalance of the four seasons, as well as many conflicts arising from the struggle for resources.
Zhu Feifei used his abilities to help those in need and mediate some disputes. His good deeds gradually changed Bihan and Bishu's opinion of him.
"I didn't expect that this stupid pig would have a conscience after all," Bishu muttered to himself.
"Hmm." Pi Han nodded, a hint of appreciation flashing in his eyes.
"What are the two goddesses talking about?" Zhu Feifei asked, leaning closer.
"It's nothing," Pi Han said calmly.
"Oh." Zhu Feifei didn't pay any attention and continued humming a little tune as she headed towards Mount Sixiang.
After several days of trekking, they finally arrived at the location indicated on the map.
However, the scene before them left the three of them looking at each other in bewilderment.
"This...this is Mount Sixiang?"
All I could see was desolation; there wasn't even a hill, let alone a mountain.
"This...this map isn't fake, is it?" Zhu Feifei scratched his head and said awkwardly.
"Idiot! I knew that drunkard's words couldn't be trusted!" The Ringwraith Little White's exasperated voice rang out.
"You pig, you're incredibly stupid!" Bishu mocked without any politeness.
"This..." Zhu Feifei was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to explain.
“Forget it, let’s go back.” Pi Han sighed and said, “It seems that the ‘Four Seasons Harmony Jade’ is just a legend.”
"Wait a minute!" Zhu Feifei suddenly said, "Let me take another look at this map!"
He picked up the parchment and examined the patterns on it carefully. Suddenly, he noticed something strange.
“This map… seems to be a treasure poem!” Zhu Feifei said.
"A treasure poem?" Bihan and Bishu both came over.
On the parchment, besides the crooked lines and strange patterns, there were some small words that could easily be overlooked if one did not look closely.
Zhu Feifei read the small print together and then said, "I understand! This map says, 'When the four elements return to their proper places, yin and yang converge, and the divine jade will appear!'"
"What does this mean?" Pi Han asked.
"I don't know either." Zhu Feifei shook her head. "But I think we can give it a try."
"How do we test it?" Bishu asked.
"This map has four symbols drawn on it, representing the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise," Zhu Feifei said, pointing to the symbols on the map. "If we find the locations corresponding to these four symbols and then infuse the power of the 'Four Seasons Harmony Jade' instruction manual into them, we might be able to find the real Four Symbols Mountain!"
"Will this... work?" Bi Han asked with some doubt.
"I don't know, but we have to try!" Zhu Feifei said. "What if it works?"
“Alright, let’s give it a try.” Bi Han nodded.
So the three of them began to search for the directions corresponding to the four symbols, following the instructions on the map.
After searching for a while, they finally found four locations: an ancient tree in the east, a huge rock in the west, a lake in the south, and a mountain peak in the north.
"What should we do next?" Bishu asked.
"I don't know either." Zhu Feifei shook her head. "The drunkard didn't explain clearly either."
"You idiot, you're so stupid!" Little White Ringwraith said with exasperation. "Of course, you should channel your power into these four locations to activate the power of the Four Symbols!"
"That's right! How come I didn't think of that!" Zhu Feifei slapped her forehead, suddenly realizing, "Two goddesses, it's up to you now!"
Bihan and Bishu nodded, and then walked to the east and south respectively.
"I come from the East!" Bi Han said, then poured his own icy power into the ancient tree.
“I’ve come to the South!” Bishu said, then poured his own fire power into the lake.
“Then Xiaobai and I will go to the west and the north!” Zhu Feifei said, then walked to the giant rock in the west and poured the power of the “Moonlight Ring” into it.
The Ringwraith White flew to the northern mountain peak and infused it with his own power.
After the four people channeled all their power into the four directions, suddenly, a dazzling light shot out from the four directions, converging in the air to form a huge pillar of light.
"Boom--!"
A sudden tremor shook the earth, and the scene before us began to change. A giant mountain shrouded in clouds and mist actually rose from the ground!
"This...this is the Four Symbols Mountain?!" Everyone was dumbfounded.
