Chapter 2134: Unexpected Joy
The old monkey seemed to understand what Zhao Hai meant. It looked at Zhao Hai and then to the injured Mischievous Monkey and then nodded as it screeched two times.
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and then waved his hand. A beam of light shone on the injured monkey. The injured monkey immediately showed a comfortable expression. When the white light vanished, Zhao Hai found that the injured monkey wasn’t fully cured.
Zhao Hai couldn’t help but frown. He got closer to the injured monkey and looked at the wound. The fishy stench was still present. Zhao Hai concluded one thing, this monkey wasn’t only injured, it was also poisoned.
Zhao Hai quickly turned his hand and took out a cup of water. He handed the cup of water to the injured monkey. The monkey received the water and chose to trust Zhao Hai. It drank the water in one go. It didn’t take long before black blood dripped out of the wound. Then the fishy smell slowly vanished.
When the wound was no longer dripping black blood, Zhao Hai used light element magic once more. This time, the injured monkey’s wound completely disappeared.
The injured Mischievous Monkey touched its belly and screeched excitedly. Then it turned around and ran into the tree hole it came from. When it came out, it had a stretch of snakeskin in its hand. The monkey placed the snakeskin in front of Zhao Hai and screeched. It kept referring to the snakeskin using its paw.
Zhao Hai looked at the snakeskin and immediately understood the monkey’s intention. The healed monkey wanted him to take the snakeskin as thanks.
Zhao Hai didn’t decline. He thought that declining might cause the Mischievous Monkey to be unhappy. It might think that Zhao Hai was looking down on it.
Zhao Hai took the snakeskin and gave it a careful look. He discovered that the skin was perfectly preserved, it even had bones inside. From his estimates, the snake was about ten meters long, but it wasn’t thick. The entire snake was dark green which showed on its preserved skin. Moreover, its scales were very beautiful. Each scale was as big as a fingernail and shone like ink jade.
Zhao Hai traced the snakeskin carefully. He wanted to know why the snake became like this. It was obviously dead. Its internal organs and flesh were gone. And after being killed, it looked like its skin was peeled off and its bones were placed inside.
Just as he was touching the skin, he smelled a sweet fragrance. Zhao Hai stared, then he immediately understood how the snake became like this. The snake must have been poisoned. Its flesh and internal organs have been turned into liquid and might be eaten by another demon beast. This only left its skin and bones behind.
Upon knowing the fate of the snake, Zhao Hai wanted to put it down. But all of a sudden, his hand suddenly touched something hard. Zhao Hai was stunned. Did this snake have stones in its body?
Zhao Hai quickly denied this thought. He traced the skin and pushed the stone to the mouth of the snake. Then a small square item fell out.
Zhao Hai was stunned. He picked up the square item and took a closer look. It turned out to be a seal. Above the seal was a carving of a coiling dragon. Zhao Hai couldn’t help but be in a daze. Then a burst of joy appeared on his face. He turned the seal over to see the bottom. However, there were only the characters of “coiling dragon” on it. But with Zhao Hai’s eyesight, he could see that the lines of the characters formed a certain pattern. Most importantly, the handiwork of the seal wasn’t something that an ordinary person could do.
Zhao Hai suddenly had an unreal feeling. He had been looking for nearly three months without any progress. Now, the seal practically fell into his hands. This seal was likely the one he was looking for. He couldn’t believe what just happened.
However, Zhao Hai quickly returned to his usual expression and received the snakeskin. The two Mischievous Monkeys were excitedly screeching when they saw Zhao Hai put the snakeskin away.
Zhao Hai smiled towards the two monkeys and cupped his fist towards them. Seeing Zhao Hai, the two monkeys were also happy. Then they led Zhao Hai outside. When they appeared, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but stare. The monkeys seemed to have procured an assortment of fruits from somewhere. The entire group of monkeys were joyfully celebrating.
Seeing this, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but smile bitterly. No wonder they said that monkeys were the closest to people. Even when they celebrated, they looked like people.
After partaking in the monkey clan’s fruit feast, Zhao Hai left the group. When he left the domain of the Mischievous Monkeys, Zhao Hai’s figure disappeared from the Mountain of Demon Beasts. The next moment, Zhao Hai was already in the forest outside Roaring Flame City.
Seeing the forest outside the city, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but laugh. Then he waved his hand and released Shopkeeper Chen’s horse before riding towards the city.
Once he entered the city, Zhao Hai immediately led the horse to the Blackwood Group. Before long, Zhao Hai appeared in front of the gang’s door. Like before, the Blackwood Group’s gate was shut tight. Zhao Hai dismounted from his horse and knocked on the gate.
The gate opened a bit as a member of the Blackwood Group poked their head out. Seeing Zhao Hai, the gang member stared, then his expression lit up as he said, “Elder, you’re back!” As he said that, he opened the door and immediately ran towards the courtyard yelling, “Elder Zhao is back. Elder Zhao is back!”
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and led the horse into the courtyard. Just as he entered, Liu Wei and Li Shan walked towards him. The two had an excited look on their faces.
Zhao Hai cupped his fist and said, “I have seen the Gang Leaders. Have you been well?”
Liu Wei and Li Shan stepped forward. Liu Wei sized Zhao Hai up and said, “Good, you’re back. I thought you had an accident. I’m glad you’re fine.”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “I made the Gang Leader worry. Let’s go in and talk.”
Hearing Zhao Hai, Liu Wei stared for a moment. Then a look of disbelief appeared on his face. He knew that if Zhao Hai had something to say, then it would be about his task. It’s possible that Zhao Hai has succeeded!
Liu Wei immediately led Zhao Hai inside. Before long, the two were inside a private room. Once they settled in, Liu Wei looked at Zhao Hai and said, “How is it? From your words, I reckon you succeeded?’
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and nodded, “I managed to complete the task.”
Liu Wei stood up and opened the door. Then he shouted, “Quickly, someone. Go call Full Moon Pavilion’s Shopkeeper Chen. I have something to discuss with him.”
The people outside immediately complied. Liu Wei closed the door and looked at Zhao Hai, “Brother Zhao, how did you find it? People have been looking for it for many years. It’s not easy to track it down.”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Let’s wait for Shopkeeper Chen to arrive. This saves me from telling the story twice.”
Hearing Zhao Hai Liu Wei laughed and said, “Right, right. Good, let’s wait for Shopkeeper Chen to arrive.” All this time, Li Shan has been quiet. Liu Wei has absolute trust towards Li Shan. Because of this, Li Shan was also aware of this matter. He also knew how difficult it was to accomplish. To be honest, he expected that Zhao Hai would have suffered an accident. But surprisingly, Zhao Hai actually succeeded. contemporary romance
To be honest, Li Shan admired Zhao Hai for accepting the task. He knew that the task was extremely dangerous, yet Zhao Hai still went. Moreover, he didn’t do it only for himself but also for the Blackwood Group. It was precisely because of this that Zhao Hai gained Li Shan’s admiration.
Before long, Shopkeeper Chen arrived at the Blackwood Group. Hearing that Zhao Hai was back and had something to discuss with him, Shopkeeper Chen’s heartbeat couldn’t help but speed up. Nobody knew clearer than him what the seal represented. Now that Zhao Hai was back and called him over, Shopkeeper Chen thought that Zhao Hai might have succeeded. This was a pleasant surprise. Shopkeeper Chen was still in disbelief. Therefore, his heart was beating hard when he arrived in the Blackwood Group.
When Shopkeeper Chen settled in the room, Zhao Hai looked at everyone and said, “Everyone, I managed to complete the task. Shopkeeper Chen, take a look, I don’t know if this is what you want. I did my best to find it.” After speaking, Zhao Hai took out a seal and handed it over.
Shopkeeper Chen excitedly received the token. The seal looked worn out and its surface was a bit scratched. However, the shape was still there. Shopkeeper Chen has been fortunate to see the clan seal in the past. The seal of the clan had the same shape. He didn’t tell Zhao Hai what it looked like, so Zhao Hai shouldn’t know that it came in this form. Now that Zhao Hai took out the seal, Shopkeeper Chen was more convinced that the seal was the one he was looking for.
After receiving the seal, Shopkeeper Chen immediately turned it over. He saw the coiling dragon carving as well as the characters on the bottom. Shopkeeper Chen’s lips couldn’t help but tremble. The clan took the dragon as its symbol. Therefore, the clan’s carvings always had a coiling dragon. Seeing the coiling dragon carving, Shopkeeper Chen knew that this was the true seal.
