Chapter 199 Zhou Miao’s relics
Edited by: Xelot
When the south-pointing chariot arrived at the ruined temple, its arrow began to spin around and around repeatedly, confirming that Zhou Miao’s relics were indeed kept in the ruined temple.
To tell you the truth, since Luhua village used to be a rundown village, the area around it didn’t have much development, so the ruined temple has preserved its original appearance to this day, which is a very fortunate thing.
Zhou Miao’s relics are useless in the hands of ordinary people, so even if they are found by ordinary people, they are likely to be disposed of as waste.
So Zhou Yu must get it as soon as possible.
Without any delay, Zhou Yu immediately set off to see what kind of relics he would get in the end, perhaps the relics could be used to level up mini Luhua village.
He had been to the ruined temple several times before. At first, it was for a game, which featured the ruined temple as the main scene, and later it was for a small low-budget film. But there was nothing strange at that time. Is it because the relics were buried underneath the ruined temple?
Zhou Yu took a shovel and left the amusement park, Zhou Yi, as his bodyguard, naturally followed behind him. But he just didn’t know what the little boss was doing this time, again. Little Rat and a bunch of kids also immediately followed, and curiously asked:
brother Yu, where are you going?

There was also another person following little Rat, it was the little celebrity, who always went to Zhou Yu’s house to get free food. Probably, he had become familiar with Little Rat, after he finished his shooting session, he would always play around with Little Rat. Now he had completely become like a wild bratty village kid.
Zhou Yu did not hide it, he directly took out the south-pointing chariot and said,
Treasure hunt, I found a great treasure in Luhua village, and I’m going to dig it out. So you guys want to help me dig the treasure? I’ll definitely give you a share as well.

Hearing that it was a treasure hunt, those bratty kids immediately became very energetic. They quickly ran back to their own homes, and when they came back, all of them had a tool in their hands. Then they began to march forward with excitement with Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yi’s face was full of helplessness. As a person, who grew up in Luhua village, he had never heard of hidden treasures in Luhua village. It made him wonder if the little boss was playing with the kids again. Maybe he was bored with life in the amusement park and wanting to seek fun outside.
Marching all the way to the ruined temple, they saw the ruined temple, which was still as dilapidated as always, but they could also see that other areas around Luhua village had some changes. Because of the tourists that were brought by the amusement park, the business here has more or less started to flourish, since the income of the villagers started to increase, the number of people coming back to the village gradually started increasing.
If it could carry on like this, naturally, Luhua village would be thriving.
Perhaps the ruined temple will no longer exist in the future, which will be a pity.
Little Rat was completely attracted by the mysterious south-pointing chariot, so Zhou Yu asked him to hold the chariot and lead the way at the front. There is a little man kneeling on the top of a chariot. On the head of the little man is a plate with a scale, and there is a small movable arrow on the plate, which will change direction with Little Rat’s movement.
Little Rat moved forward cautiously, his eyes fixed on the little arrow on the plate, and with even just a slightest arrow’s movement, he would exclaim in amazement.
It really felt like a treasure hunt.
When they arrived at a place, the little arrow suddenly began to spin quickly. It was no longer pointing in one direction. Little Rat immediately said nervously,
Brother Yu, we got a situation!

Zhou Yu came over to have a look at the chariot, and when he saw the carpenter beaver nodded, he immediately said.
This is it. Brother Yi. Can you help us dig it?

Since he, who was muscular, had nothing to do at the moment, Zhou Yu might as well use him. Zhou Yi nodded helplessly and joined the seemingly meaningless treasure hunt. With just a strange little chariot, how could he be so sure that there was a treasure here? If he was this lucky, he should buy a lottery ticket instead of doing this. After all, the probability of winning a lottery may be much higher than this.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t defy the little boss’s order. He could only dig the ground obediently. But he still worried that if they could not dig up anything, the children would be upset.
Digging is a labor-intensive job, so Zhou Yi and Zhou Yu were responsible for digging, and the children helped them move the soil to one side. With them working together, the hole was dug deeper and deeper. And the deeper Zhou Yi dug, the more worried he was. Because it was obvious that there was nothing here. However, Zhou Yu believed in the south-pointing chariot, and he did not stop digging at all.
Until about one meter deep, Zhou Yi’s shovel suddenly hit something hard, and it made a loud and clear noise.

We found it, we found the treasure!

Before it was even confirmed, Little Rat cheered loudly, jumping and shouting with his friends as if he had become a millionaire. Zhou Yu was also very happy. He changed to a smaller shovel to dig away the soil around it little by little to exactly determine what it was.
In the end, it turns out to be an ordinary stone lion.
Even so, Little Rat and other children were still very happy. They all surrounded the stone lion and kept asking Zhou Yu if it was the terra-cotta warrior of Qin Shi Huang.
Terra-cotta warriors my ass. Have you seen any lions in the terra-cotta army? If it was really from Qin Shi Huang’s period, Zhou Yu would not dare to touch it at all. Even if there were many of them, it still belonged to the national museum, if he touched it, he might be locked up.
Hmmm, thinking of this, it made Zhou Yu wonder if there were little people of the ACG world in prison. If there were really some, he would not feel lonely if he was locked up.
Zhou Yi was also surprised.
The soils they dug earlier looked solid, it clearly had not been dug up before, so he could rule out the possibility that it was buried here by the little boss beforehand. So the question was, how did the little boss know that there was a stone lion here? With that weird little chariot? No way! Could it be that there was a magnet in the belly of the stone lion?
After cleaning up, it could be seen that this stone lion really looked like an antique that had been buried here for a long time. Now Zhou Yi wasn’t sure about it. The strange little boss has involved with many strange things. It really confuses people sometimes.
However, Zhou Yu was not satisfied. But even after he dug deeper for a while, he didn’t find anything else.
God Damn it! Just a useless stone lion? Where’s my 3d chip? What about the rest of my treasures?
Zhou Yu was very disappointed. However, the stonemason monkey suddenly said,
it is a hollow stone lion. There must be a switch somewhere and Zhou Miao’s relics must be inside.

Whew, that is such an emotional rollercoaster.
Climbing out of the hole again to examine this stone lion, sure enough, in its abdomen, Zhou Yu found a strange magic circle. The stone lion stood on four feet, If Zhou Yu hadn’t checked it thoroughly, he wouldn’t have been able to find it. The magic circle could be even turned. It was such a delicate design.

It is a magic circle puzzle, and only when the circle is turned in the correct order, the switch will be triggered.

When it comes to stone, the monkey is an expert, and the carpenter beaver is also an expert in mechanical engineering. So after studying the stone lion for a long time, they finally found the right answer. The magic circle puzzle was an Eight Trigram Puzzle. It was one of the mechanical puzzles that had been lost in the ACG world for a very long time. From this, it meant that this stone lion was definitely something Zhou Miao left behind.
Seeing brother Yu crawled underneath the stone lion, and not knowing what he was doing, Little Rat couldn’t help but say,
Brother Yu, can we carry it back to the village and study it later? It is very tiring to keep lifting it up like this.

Since the thing was quite heavy, it was quite difficult for the children to lift it up for a long time. If they dropped it by accident, Zhou Yu would definitely be injured.

All right, let’s take it back first!
