"Then, Nephew Zheng-Fu, please guide us. What should we do? We want your opinion," the red-haired middle-aged man nodded and had a sly smile on his lips, turning to ask Zheng-Fu.
"My opinion? I think they should beco part of Comrade City. Although I don't know what secret they're hiding, I believe that secret must be very valuable. Moreover, combining the six outskirts villages with the city will help make Comrade City safer and more populated. There is also a chance that this city will beco the main city of the region!" Zheng-Fu explained what he thought and prepared. As he spoke, he did not take his eyes off the Furious Dragon Clan Leader for a mont. Because he knew that the latter was staring at him to find fault with him. This clan leader saw him walking with the six village chiefs this morning, as well as Niao-Chen.
Ah!
With Zheng-Fu's words, many high-ranking clan leaders also began to think accordingly. Everyone thought that the results they would get might be worth it.
"Then how should we deal with this matter?" The Furious Dragon Clan Leader continued to ask.
"If you guys don't mind, shall I go talk to them?" Zheng-Fu offered himself as an ambassador to talk to the six village chiefs about this matter. He knew that this might be a trap of the Furious Dragon Clan. But he chose to walk into this trap.
Hah!?
"Is it good, Nephew Zheng-Fu? If you go and talk to them alone, I'm afraid they might use tricks and bargain for more benefits. Is this a good idea? Let go with you. At least there will be a representative of the major clan. That way, they'll have more confidence!" The red-haired middle-aged man smiled with satisfaction when he heard Zheng-Fu say that. It was the sentence he had been waiting for. Because he would use this opportunity to follow Zheng-Fu to find out the secret before anyone else.
"Clan Leader Long-Qi-Hao's idea isn't bad at all! I think so. So, I'll ask Uncle Shi-Fei to go with . Because if there is one representative of the four major clan leaders along with , my credibility will probably be even higher," said Zheng-Fu, smiling slyly at the corners of his mouth. He had already guessed that Long-Qi-Hao would have to use this trick. So, he had already chosen the person he trusted the most to go with him.
Ah!
Long-Qi-Hao's face turned red when he heard Zheng-Fu's words. He did not think that Zheng-Fu was this good at striking back at people. That made Long-Qi-Hao dare not reject this idea. If Zheng-Fu did not want him to go, he could not plead or argue anymore. He could only keep the feelings of resentnt in his heart.
"Then do as Nephew Zheng-Fu said. Let Clan Leader Fei-Shi-Fei go with you." The Elephant Bear Clan Leader noticed what was happening. And he imdiately understood Long-Qi-Hao's thoughts. He secretly shook his head in pity and sympathy, before supporting Zheng-Fu's idea. He had already learned that Zheng-Fu was the type of person who would repay those who treated him well with good deeds. And whoever did evil to him, he would also be evil in return.
"I also agree with Nephew Zheng-Fu to have Master Fei-Shi-Fei go along!" Niao-Chen also agreed with this idea. He also noticed the bad atmosphere that had arisen just now.
Erm...
"I agree!"
" too!"
"I don't... don't reject this idea!"
"I also agree with that. Master Fei-Shi-Fei going along is a good idea!"
After Chong-Ge-Bo expressed his stance, Niao-Chen agreed. Then the other clan leaders, who were hesitating, could decide whether they should agree. And almost all of them agreed.
"Since everyone agrees, I must agree too!" Long-Qi-Hao gritted his teeth as he said this.
Good!
"Then it can be concluded like this. In two days, Uncle Shi-Fei and I will visit the six village chiefs. So, tomorrow we'll send soone to inform them first!" Zheng-Fu smiled, satisfied that Chong-Ge-Bo had chosen a side well. If Chong-Ge-Bo chose to support Long-Qi-Hao, he would no longer be nice to him and would never accept any kindness or friendship from him.
Umm!
After reaching a conclusion, everyone returned to the banquet again. But Long-Qi-Hao imdiately excused himself to return to his clan. He used the excuse that he had a slight headache and wanted to rest. Niao-Chen, Chong-Ge-Bo, and Fei-Shi-Fei all knew that Long-Qi-Hao didn't have a headache or anything. He was just dissatisfied and in a bad mood and could not join the banquet anymore.
"Nephew, don't mind him. He's such a person!" Niao-Chen did not want any trouble to happen to the Furious Dragon Clan, so he walked over and spoke to Zheng-Fu.
"I won't mind him if he doesn't cross the line I have drawn!" Zheng-Fu did not care what anyone said. He was not a person who liked to do bad things to anyone first. But no one should dare do anything to him or his family, otherwise, he would never forgive that person.
Sigh!!!
After the banquet night was over, Zheng-Fu spent the ti before the appointed day resting and doing his little tasks. Three major clan leaders also stopped by to discuss with him the negotiations with the six village chiefs and the requirents that they would use as conditions. Then ti passed until the appointed day.
At the tent that was built to welco guests within the area of the first village...
"Hello, Young Master and Clan Leader! Welco to our village," the elder who negotiated with Zheng-Fu welcod them after Zheng-Fu and Fei-Shi-Fei entered the tent.
"Let's get to the point. I don't have much ti," Zheng-Fu said with a serious expression.
"Yes, sir, as you wish. But we won't let others know about this. Please have the person accompanying you wait outside first. I hope you won't refuse." The elder nodded lightly before telling Zheng-Fu to tell Fei-Shi-Fei to go wait outside the tent during their conversation.
"Uncle Shi-Fei, can you go wait for outside first? I have sothing to discuss with them." Zheng-Fu did not refuse this request.
"All right, I understand." Fei-Shi-Fei nodded lightly before getting up and walking out of the tent with a servant leading the way to another reception tent.
"All right! Can we talk now?" When Fei-Shi-Fei left, Zheng-Fu turned and stared at the elder with sharp eyes and asked in a cold voice.
"Of course, Young Master! First, I'll take you to the secret land entrance. It's under this tent!"
Flap!!!
Groooaaan!!!
Finished speaking, the elder moved his hand so quickly. Then the ground split open, revealing a deep underground passageway. It looked to be more than twenty ters deep.
"Please follow . Other village chiefs are waiting for us down there!" As the entrance opened, the elder called for Zheng-Fu to follow him downward.
Umm!
Ten minutes passed...
Thump!!!
Hah!?
Respect, Young Master!!!
As soon as they reached the bottom, the five middle-aged n who had been waiting below imdiately greeted Zheng-Fu respectfully.
Umm!
Zheng-Fu simply nodded in response to those people. He looked curiously at the large stone door that was ten ters tall and had ancient characters he could not read engraved on it. It looked similar to the door of Ba-Ong's chamber that he had found beneath the ancient ruin. Only this door looked older and felt more mysterious.
"Is this the entrance to secret land?" Zheng-Fu asked with a calm expression.
"That's right, Young Master! This is the secret land entrance we ntioned. It can only be opened by using the special keys that were implanted in the bodies of the six of us. Without these keys, it would not be possible to open this door forever. Therefore, our lives are very precious," the elder explained to Zheng-Fu the importance of their lives. If sothing happened to the six of them, in the future, no one would be able to open the entrance to that secret land again.
Umm!
"Then open it now. So that we can follow the agreent that we've discussed. I'll go inside to investigate and will co back out. Then your request will be accepted. But if I go in and never co out again, you all know what's going to happen!" Zheng-Fu knew what the other party wanted to convey. But he did not care at all. What he was interested in was behind this door.
"We understand! Alright, everyone, open the entrance for Young Master!" The elder nodded in understanding, before telling the other five village chiefs to use their keys to open the door.
Umm!
Floof! Floof! Floof! Floof! Floof! Floof!
GROOOAAAN!!!
BANG!!!
As soon as they used the special key to open it, the large stone door slowly opened. Before it fully opened and revealed an entrance, which was the blue light energy wave. Only by walking into the blue light energy wave, he would know what was hidden behind this door.
"I'll go inside. And this is the jade of life! If I die, the light of the jade will go out. But if I'm still alive, this jade will always glow!" Zheng-Fu did not want to waste any more ti. He imdiately decided to go investigate. Before entering, he took out a jade of life and handed it to the elder.
Blop!
"We understood! We'll be waiting for you outside. Waiting for you to co back!" The elder took the jade from Zheng-Fu and said politely and respectfully.
Umm!
Flap!!!
Whooooosh!!!
Bang!!!
Zheng-Fu did not hesitate and imdiately charged into the blue light wave. And as soon as he entered, the large stone door suddenly closed by itself.
Huh!?
"What's that!?"
"Why does the door close by itself?"
"That's right! Normally, it won't close until the person who entered cos out?"
"Then how can he co out?"
"We're unable to contact him when he's inside. So, we won't know when to open the door for him. And if that's really the case, it ans..."
"Don't panic, everyone. Maybe this secret land is connected to him. I feel like this secret land is calling out to him. And the fact that the door is closed like this is probably because the will of the secret land doesn't want anyone to interfere or disturb him!" The elder cald everyone down as he saw their panic. And what he said was an assumption based on the feelings he actually felt.
But the other village chiefs did not believe what the elder said. They thought it was just the elder's consolation. Because there was very little possibility.
