Chapter 4186 The Verdant Cloud Cerulean Pond
As he drove the carriage along the road, Jian Shu glanced back, then he said to his Master in the carriage: “Master, they are following us.”
“Ignore them, just drive the carriage.” Wang Yu said, ignoring the carriage following behind them. As long as they didn’t cause trouble, they could follow them!
The carriage moved slowly until it reached the destination and then it stopped. Wang Yu and Du Fan who were in the carriage in front got off first, then they came to the carriage behind and waited for Feng Jiu to get off. “Look, up ahead is the Verdant Cloud Cerulean Pond. This area is famous for sightseeing and entertainment. Besides that, there is also game in the forest over there. Some people come to try hunting and eating wild game in the forest.”
Wang Yu gave them a brief introduction to the area then said: “Let’s go to the Verdant Cloud Cerulean Pond in front! The water there is clear and emerald green. We can go boating and fish in the pond, and when you’re tired, we can rest on the grass or in the pavilion.”
Feng Jiu followed him to the Verdant Cloud Cerulean Pond. Her eyes flickered slightly as she looked at the Verdant Cloud Cerulean Pond in front of her, and she asked: “Where does the water in the pond come from?”
The water in the Verdant Cloud Cerulean Pond was so clear that she could see the bottom of the lake. Gradually, a light layer of mist floated above the surface of the pond. The pond against the backdrop of the misty water and verdant green mountains was ethereal. Moreover, as she stood by the pond, she could feel a spirit energy fluctuation in the water which was something that couldn’t be found in ordinary ponds. “It is said that the water in the Verdant Cloud Cerulean Pond is the underground water source in the Vedant Enchanted Forest. There has been water in the pond for as long as I can remember. As the surroundings are so beautiful here, and the water in the pond has a faint spirit energy, the surrounding trees and animals are influenced by the emerald water and grow very well.”
Wang Yu smiled and said: “There is fish in the pond, and the fish are very delicious, but very few people can catch them. Look at all the people on the boats with fishing rods in their hands trying to catch the fish in the pond.”
“Then why don’t they just go into the water to catch the fish directly? Wouldn’t that be faster?” Ye Fei Fei who was beside them asked. She stepped forward and scooped up some water only to find that it was unusually cool. Wang Yu looked at the surface of the pond and said: “There are people who have gone into the water in the past, but they never came back up. Therefore, legend has it that there is a water monster in the pond, and you can only catch fish using fishing rods but not go into the water to catch fish.”
“Water monster?” Ye Fei Fei was startled and looked back at him. Wang Yu nodded and said: “Mmm, but no one has ever seen it, so no one knows what the water monster looks like. Maybe it’s just a rumour, or maybe it’s deep in the pond.”
“Interesting.” Feng Jiu’s lips curled up slightly. She looked at the clear emerald pond and said: “Let’s go boating on the pond as well! If we can catch a few fish we can have a picnic here.”
“In that case, Fei Fei and I will go and pick some branches and see if there is any game in the woods.” Du Fan said with a smile as he fanned the wind gently with the fan in his hand. “Jian Shu, follow Young Master Du Fan to pick some branches!” Wang Yu ordered his attendant to stay and help. “Yes.” Jian Shu responded. Then he looked at Du Fan and said: “Young Master Du, I’ll lead the way!”
So, Du Fan, Ye Fei Fei and Jian Shu went into the woods while Feng Jiu, Leng Shuang and Wang Yu went boating. Zeng San and his companions who had followed them arrived just in time to see Wang Yu boarding the boat with a woman in red and a woman in black.
