Treasure identifying Golden Finger

1It was a long time before someone came out, just as the children were getting impatient. It was a few men. They talked and went into a small house which seemed to be the kitchen. Soon, they came out of the kitchen with their food. They sat on the stone bench in the yard and started to eat.    

    

They made do, some standing, some sitting, and in a little while they had finished their food, and then they went noisily out of the yard to do some kind of after-dinner entertainment.    

    

"Is there that man in there?"    

    

Faang Cheng asked in a low voice.    

    

"No!"    

    

Kai Zhi immediately shook his head and said. Wei Xiaolian, on the other hand, also shook her head.    

    

After that, a few more men came out. They all came out for dinner. After the meal, they either went out or went back to their rooms. Nobody knew what they were doing. When Zhang Zhi and Wei Xiaolian saw them, they also kept shaking their heads. They said that they didn't notice the man who appeared at the gate of the Spirit Cultivation Academy.    

    

Seeing that the thirty over men had almost all come out, yet the two children still did not discover anything, Zheng Ziyun started to get anxious.    

    

"Did you guys take a closer look? Are you sure that man is not here?"    

    

Zheng Ziyun's tone was slightly impatient.    

    

The two children shook their heads when they saw that their dean seemed angry, but then they looked at each other uncertainly, as if seeking the right answer.    

    

"Don't worry, you will cause the children to be unconfident. Let's take our time to look at it. If once doesn't work, we can look at it a second time."    

    

Faang Cheng stopped Zheng Ziyun from asking any more questions. He then reached out his hand and patted Zhang Zhi and Wei Xiaolian's shoulders to comfort them.    

    

"It's alright, we're not in a hurry. Let's take our time and see what that man at the door looks like..."    

    

"It's that man!"    

    

"It's him!"    

    

Before Faang Cheng could finish his words, Zhang Zhi and Wei Xiaolian interrupted him at the same time.    

    

When Faang Cheng and Zheng Zi Yun heard the two children's orderly and resolute discovery, they immediately raised their heads and looked in the direction the children were pointing. They saw a man standing at the entrance of the main hall in the courtyard.    

    

Faang Cheng and Zheng Ziyun both knew this man. He was the leader of the group who had caused a ruckus at the entrance of the Spirit Cultivation Academy that morning.    

    

"It's him!"    

    

Faang Cheng and Zheng Ziyun were both surprised. They looked at each other and a trace of excitement flashed across their eyes.    

    

"Are you sure... that the strange man who was staring at the treasure of the Wang Family at the entrance of our Spirit Cultivation Academy is him?"    

    

Zheng Ziyun confirmed once again.    

    

"That's him!"    

    

"Yes, that's right!"    

    

Zhang Zhi and Wei Xiaolian spoke at the same time.    

    

"Yes, if these two children confirm it together, then there shouldn't be any problems!"    

    

Faang Cheng said with certainty.    

    

The reason why Faang Cheng chose to bring the two children here to recognize them was to confirm his suspicions. One person might not be able to accurately judge a person's character, but when two people were pointing at the same person at the same time, the accuracy would naturally increase!    

    

"So it's him! It seems... I was right in my heart. This group of people is indeed related to the disappearance of the Wang Family's treasure."    

    

With that, Faang Cheng jumped down from the tree with Zhang Zhi in his arms. Following that, Zheng Ziyun and Wei Xiaolian landed steadily on the ground.    

    

"Brother Lu, the two children have already recognized the man who often appears at the entrance of the academy. Zi Yun and I will be keeping an eye on him for a while. Please take the two children back first!"    

    

Faang Cheng planned to keep an eye on the leader of the group. If he really was the one who took away the Wang Family's treasure, then if they continued to follow this man, they might be able to find the location of the treasure. Or even if they couldn't find the location of the Wang Family's treasure, Faang Cheng and the others might still be able to find some clues.    

    

"Alright, then be careful. I'll bring them back first and wait for you in the academy!"    

    

Lu Yanlin nodded in agreement.    

    

By the time Lu Yanlin left with Kai Zhi and Wei Xiaolian, the sky had already darkened. Faang Cheng and Zheng Ziyun hid in the trees and watched what was happening in the courtyard. This group of people seemed to have nothing important to do as they continued to loiter around the small courtyard. The two young ladies were just cooking and making tea. They had nothing to do. Apparently, they were kept to do something special!    

    

Just as Faang Cheng and Zheng Ziyun were about to fall asleep from boredom, they noticed movement in the courtyard. The twenty to thirty men had gathered together. They held a small meeting in the courtyard, and the contents of the meeting were clearly heard by Faang Cheng.    

    

"We'll split into two teams. You guys will go around the vicinity of the Spirit Cultivation Academy and see if there are any chances of entering the academy or if there are any children who are alone. I'll take a few people... to see that brat. Sigh, this brat is a hot potato. The investigation in the city is so strict now. I don't know where to bury him if I kill him. If I don't kill him... The higher-ups asked me to kill him as soon as possible. What a mess!"    

    

The leading man complained impatiently and then waved to the crowd. He took five or six men with him and walked out of the gate of the yard. The rest of the men also walked out of the small courtyard and walked in the direction of the Spirit Cultivation Academy.    

    

Faang Cheng and Zheng Ziyun looked at each other and hurriedly jumped down from the big tree.    

    

"You follow them back to the Spirit Cultivation Academy, and I'll follow the leader. I feel... This time, I'll be able to find the child from the Wang Family!"    

    

Faang Cheng said confidently.    

    

"Alright!"    

    

At that moment, the two of them parted ways and went their separate ways to chase after their respective targets.    

    

Faang Cheng followed the leader out of the city before the city gates closed and headed towards the outskirts of the city. As there were few people outside the city, it was extremely disadvantageous for them to follow others. Faang Cheng used his Spirit Power to conceal himself and followed behind the leading man as if he was invisible. They did not notice him at all along the way.    

    

Soon, they arrived at a small village outside the city. The village was very quiet, looking like only a dozen or so families. They walked to a small courtyard and gently knocked on the door a few times. It sounded like there was a rhythm. Then, someone came to open the door for them.    

    

The leader of the men and a few of his men nodded at each other, then walked in and entered a tiled room in the yard.
