629 Chapter 629 “Golden Lake“
"What is a gold fairy?" Li Shi Ying asked Wei Zhuang again after they sat down in the chairs inside a restaurant. While Zhan Jiouli ordered food for them, the others curiously listened to Wei Zhuang's story, except for a certain jealous dragon.
"The legend says that this fairy can turn anything it touches to gold! That's how the whole city becomes gold." Wei Zhuang smiled with satisfaction when he managed to get Li Shi Ying to be interested in what he was talking about.
He finally could talk to Li Shi Ying! Screw that Long Ao Zhen, let him glare all he likes, he would make sure to entertain Li Shi Ying right in front of his eyes!
"Such a weird creature exists??" Jiao Cong Ming couldn't help but join in the conversation, since he too was curious about the Golden City along with the legend there. He thought that for the whole city to be made from gold…
That alone was already suspicious. No matter how much gold this country had, it was impossible to build 80% of the capital city to be made from gold. The country would surely run out of gold in the end.
"Yes, the legend says that this fairy only comes out at night. This fairy lives near the golden lake not far from the tourist area. The place was quite secluded, but the lake is so big it can be used to do military practice."
Wei Zhuang had a proud look on his face as he explained more about this gold fairy. He would occasionally glance at Long Ao Zhen to see his reaction and every time Long Ao Zhen glared at him, he would feel satisfied.
"This fairy can turn living beings into gold too?" Li Shi Ying couldn't help but shudder when she thought about it. She looked at Wei Zhuang, waiting for an answer since somehow...she had a bad feeling about this.
It's just a legend but why the hell did she have a feeling that this fairy was real?
"Of course. If you look closely around the tourist area...you will find a few human statues made of gold." Wei Zhuang nodded his head as he spoke in a serious tone, sending a shiver down everyone's spine.
"Those statues are obviously made by people right?" Long Ao Zhen who was silent all this time suddenly chipped in, refuting what Wei Zhuang said. He was sure this man talked like this just to scare everyone as well as make his story seem mysterious.
"But don't you notice the human statues all wear normal clothes and look like commoners? It's weird for people to waste gold on those kinds of statues." Wei Zhuang raised his eyes as he gave evidence to what he said before.
It's true that he didn't think that the fairy was real, but it was only until he spotted one of the human statues there that looked very much alive. It was as if they were being frozen in a state of solid gold.
Maybe it's just his imagination, but he could use this to back up his story of the Gold Fairy.
"Speaking of statues...they should make the emperor statue with gold, but I don't see any." Feng Wang Zi didn't like Wei Zhuang, but he hated Long Ao Zhen more so he also talked with facts kinda leaning toward Wei Zhuang's opinion.
"They won't make the emperor statue in a tourist area. It must be at the palace." Long Ao Zhen harrumphed, insisting that all of these talks were only legends. It is called a legend because it's not real!
"There there, let's eat first!" Li Shi Ying had cold sweats seeing these three men were about to continue their debate when the food suddenly arrived on their table.
What perfect timing! Hurrah for food!
"Fine." Long Ao Zhen was the first one to back down from the upcoming debate hearing his little bunny's words. He too was hungry, so better to eat first before continuing the debate.
"Eh look the plate and the chopsticks here are all made of gold!" Li Shi Ying thought the eating utensils wouldn't be made of gold since that would be ridiculous, but her thoughts were wrong.
Not only the table and the chairs, not to mention the wall and the floor in the restaurant which were made of gold. Even the eating utensils were also made from gold!
Li Shi Ying's words made every single one of them go silent. The feeling of the legend might be true, suddenly merging in their hearts. Even Long Ao Zhen also silently doubted his words before.
Could it be that...the legend is real?
5 p.m
"Alright, time's up! Every participant can go to the flying ship now...we will head to the golden lake. That's where you will do the second round." The staff stopped everyone from doing anything and urged them to board the ship.
Li Shi Ying and the others had arrived right when the staff asked everyone to board the ship, but one thing they were surprised of.
Golden lake? So the Golden Lake is a real place?! They thought it was only a place in the legend! Not to mention that the staff said they would arrive at 7 p.m when the sun had set down.
Don't tell them...the Gold Fairy would appear there??
