"Damn it! Indeed, he was trying to trick !" Gu Xijiu clenched her fist.
"Who tricked you?" Si Chen frowned.
Gu Xijiu let out her anger in the Dark Forest, "That bastard, Celestial Master Zuo!"
Si Chen remained silent.
He looked at her for a while and asked, "How... How did the Celestial Master Zuo trick you?"
Gu Xijiu showed him the compass bird. She asked Si Chen as she pointed at the bird’s eyes, "Is this a compass bird? Is the direction where it is looking at South?"
Si Chen remained silent for a mont and asked, "Why do you think that’s South?"
Gu Xijiu touched the beak and the bird repeated a phrase, "the place where the Phoenix was reborn is my destination."
"This is referring to fire right? Its destination was the direction of the fire elent, which ans the South?"
Si Chen massaged his brows and said, "Have you heard about ‘The Indus is growing in the Eastern part and there the Phoenix ca and was reborn’?"
Gu Xijiu shook her head, but she seed to have figured out sothing, "So, which ans its eyes were looking at the East!?"
"Exactly!"
Gu Xijiu collapsed to the ground, and Si Chen did the sa. However, he was very obsessed with cleanliness. Hence, the soil on the ground was swept away by his sleeve.
Gu Xijiu was idling for a mont. Si Chen did not disturb her as he knew she had been struck by the fact that she took a wrong direction
"Little Cang, you’re such a bastard, why you didn’t remind ? Are you trying to pull my legs?" Gu Xijiu blad the Firmant Stone.
The Firmant Stone felt wronged, "Master, I’ve never heard of that poem!"
"Is it possible? Aren’t you the ancient search engine?"
"I... I’m not a fan of poems though." Its main interest was about the interesting incidents and people in the world instead of poems or songs. It definitely would not have rembered it.
"I thought you’re a civilized gem, sigh!" Gu Xijiu looked down on it.
The Firmant Stone said proudly, "What we can do with those poems and songs? Those are for the poets to show off their literacy..."
Gu Xijiu had the sa thought, "Celestial Master Zuo likes acting very much, why would he create such a complicated bird? It would be easier if he just indicated the direction. Why on earth did he program the bird to read poems!? And worse, a lousy poem!"
The Firmant Stone was always standing at her side, "Indeed! It’s too lousy! I guess only the scholars know about it!"
Gu Xijiu was communicating with the Firmant Stone via the telepathic technique so nothing could be heard by the rest. Si Chen was sitting beside her and randomly explained, "This poem was created by The Lord, and almost everyone who is literate knows it. Little Xijiu, how could you not know?"
Gu Xijiu was speechless.
Si Chen shook his head as he sighed, "It’s so scary to be illiterate. Look at you, you look bright, but I can’t believe that you don’t know such a simple poem."
Gu Xijiu frowned, "I don’t like to morize quotes from other people!" This was not a revolution where everyone knew about the quotes of Mao Zedong.
Two full days have passed, and she has traveled from the third peak to the fifth peak. Thus, she needed about the sa duration to return to the third peak. She would probably manage to escape from the Dark Forest within three days, which ans, she still had enough ti to escape from this idiotic forest if she obeys the agreed term of eight days.
She took out two fruits from her storage bag and threw one to Si Chen. She began to chew the fruit in her hand as she needed to restore her energy first before starting the next journey.
