552 Chapter 552 “Don“t Judge a Book by It“s Cover“
Li Shi Ying then placed one stone from the three stones she needed to check out of the scales aside. Now, she put one stone on each side.
"! Ah, I get it! So, if the scales are balanced now, we know that the stone left is the one lighter and if the scales aren’t balanced, we can guess which is lighter!"
Seeing what Li Shi Ying did, Long Ao Zhen quickly realized that what she was doing, was the true method to solving this problem. Oh God, it turned out to be so easy! Why the heck didn’t he focus on three stones before??
KRIEET....
The scales moved again and this time, it was balanced. It means the one lighter than the rest was the stone Li Shi Ying didn’t put on the scale, the one left behind.
"Here it is uncle, the stone that is lighter than the others." Li Shi Ying smiled as she gathered up the stones again and kept one which was different from the rest, so she could identify it now.
"Ahhh, thank you so much! I didn’t think that far before. You’re truly a smart young lady!" The villager was so happy that he almost cried.
He quickly put the other 7 stones into his bag, and held the one stone different from the rest on his palm.
"Okay, we will be leaving now." Li Shi Ying expected other people to come, giving them the crystal spirit stone, or maybe a mysterious man dropped one after he watched how they passed this test too.
This villager was poor, he couldn’t possibly have crystal spirit stones. For him to get 7 spirit stones alone was already a wonder.
"Let’s go." Long Ao Zhen also thought like Li Shi Ying, so he followed Li Shi Ying. Shu Chen, after seeing those two leave, only obediently followed. After all, he too didn’t believe this villager could give what they wanted.
Li Shi Ying and the others were just about to go when suddenly, the villager shouted, calling them as he chased after them.
"Young lady, wait!" The villager caught his breath as he stopped Li Shi Ying and her group.
"Yes?" Li Shi Ying raised her eyebrows when the villager stopped her. Is there something else with this villager? They have passed the test, it was time to find the person who will give them the crystal stone. "Here, as a reward for helping me! A mysterious man who told me that there was one which wasn’t a spirit stone mixed in with them, told me to give this stone to whoever helped me."
The villager gave Li Shi Ying the stone that wasn’t a spirit stone. The one she managed to separate from the other stones.
"Huh? Thank you..." Li Shi Ying’s lips twitched when she saw the villager give her the stone. Even though this stone looked like a spirit stone, since it’s lighter, it was not a spirit stone!
What use is this stone??
"Alright, be careful on the way!" The villager gave his goodbyes to Li Shi Ying and the rest before leaving them.
Li Shi Ying tilted her head from seeing the villager leave them, but she didn’t think much. She and the others headed outside the village to find someone who could give them the crystal spirit stone.
They had passed the test after all!
15 minutes later...
"Why there isn’t anyone giving us the crystal spirit stone?? Don’t tell me that villager’s problem before wasn’t a test." Shu Chen cursed as he rested under a tree near a big lake.
They had been walking for a long time, waiting for someone to give them the reward, but there was no one!
"Damn it, did we just waste time helping that villager?" Long Ao Zhen too sat down beside Li Shi Ying, who was also tired like him.
"Hey guys...what should we do with this stone." Li Shi Ying sighed. Hearing the boys talk about stones, she was reminded of the useless stone the villager gave her.
They already wasted time just to get a normal stone! it wasn’t a crystal spirit stone...
Li Shi Ying sighed again as she raised the stone in her hand toward the sun. She was playing with the stone out of boredom. She was just bored and did that out of accident. It was accidental.
Li Shi Ying was about to store the stone for now when she realized that the stone when it was directed to the sun, suddenly looked transparent. It was blue like other spirit stones, but when sunlight touched it, the light went through the stone.
"Beautiful..." Li Shi Ying was amazed, seeing the normal stone suddenly look beautiful under the sun. It was pretty and shiny, as if it was not a stone but a crystal.
...hm? Crystal??
"Wait, Shu Chen, check this...could this be the crystal spirit stone??" Li Shi Ying quickly snapped out of her daze. Now, she suddenly had the answer of why they haven’t met anyone to give them the crystal spirit stone.
"How could a stone like this be- eh?! I-it is!" Shu Chen hadn’t checked the stone, and from afar it looked like a normal stone, but when he looked closer, also inspecting it carefully, the stone they thought to be useless was actually the third treasure they needed.
It’s the crystal spirit stone!! They didn’t realize they already got it a long time ago!
