Chapter 640 - The Big Secret!
“Why would I?” Grand Secretary Fang looked at Feng Wu in bewilderment.
Feng Wu had planned to tell Grand Secretary Fang the truth, or she wouldn’t have deliberately jumped out of the dry well.
She grinned at Grand Secretary Fang. “Haven’t you been searching for the secret of this manor?”
Grand Secretary Fang’s pupils contracted at Feng Wu’s words.
“Do you know anything about that?” He found Feng Wu’s question dubious.
Feng Wu nodded. “I do.”
The look on Grand Secretary Fang’s face changed instantly!
He couldn’t believe it!
No one who had lived in this manor had been able to find the secret — how could a girl as young as Feng Wu…
“Follow me, please.” Feng Wu took the old man by his hand and led him to the dry well.
The old man was confused.
“Now, jump.” Feng Wu was going to take the old man down the well with her.
The old steward interjected, “Miss Feng Wu, please don’t. My old master is —”
However, Grand Secretary Fang cut him short. “I’m sure Xiao Wu has her reasons. I’ll go have a look.”
Being a free spirit, Grand Secretary Fang had only become more capricious these days and wouldn’t haggle over trifles. No one would expect the once grand secretary of the empire to do such a reckless thing.
He felt something strange as soon as they landed at the bottom of the dry well.
Feng Wu tilted her head and grinned. “Old Master, can you feel anything different?”
“The spiritual essence down here seems to be denser? Is this a place designed for cultivation?” Grand Secretary Fang looked pleasantly surprised.
Feng Wu snapped her fingers.
Feng Tutu dashed off from Feng Wu’s chest pocket and began to dig into the ground.
However, Grand Secretary Fang’s attention had been drawn to the walls of the well. As he felt his way around, he cried out in surprise. “The rocks used to build these walls are really unusual. They look like crude spiritual stones! Wait, they are crude spiritual stones!”
Grand Secretary Fang was pleasantly surprised. “So, this well was built with crude spiritual stones. How extravagant!”
Feng Wu only smiled.
The old man sighed with emotion. “If my guess is correct, these are all crude top-grade spiritual stones! Gosh, that’s incredible. The stones alone are worth more than this manor. Kiddo, you’ve got sharp eyes.”
Feng Wu was still grinning.
Just then, there was a whooshing sound!
Feng Tutu jumped out from under the ground and ran up to Grand Secretary Fang.
Grand Secretary Fang’s eyes widened at the sight of Feng Tutu!
Right now, Feng Tutu had a bib around its neck, which resembled the pouch of a kangaroo.
In its mouth was a spiritual stone, and the pocket of the bib was filled with spiritual stones as well!
Grand Secretary Fang: !!!
As experienced as the old man was, he had rarely seen such high quality spiritual stones before.
“This…” Grand Secretary Fang was surprised.
“Old Master, what do you think of these stones?” Picking up Feng Tutu, Feng Wu put the cub in Grand Secretary Fang’s hands.
With the top-grade spiritual stone in its mouth, Feng Tutu looked like it was eating a pancake. Its eyes were so innocent and it had such a confused look on its face.
Taking a stone out of Feng Tutu’s bib, Grand Secretary Fang looked at it closely. He was even more amazed. “…They’re top-grade spiritual stones, every single one of them! Xiao Wu, where…”
