“Is there really no problem with this parchment scroll?” in the eyes of Baili Hongzhuang a bit of doubt flashed. When she followed the family elders, they would tell her that some people would seal a real treasure using some methods.

  As a result many would miss the treasure, only those who knows about it could unlock it.

  Her fingertips kept gently rubbing the parchment roll while considering what to do, what was feasible.

  Suddenly there was a firm light in the eyes of Baili Honghuang. It didn’t matter, she should give it a try.

  Next, Baili Hongzhuang reached out for a candle.

  Seeing her actions, all three beasts showed a bit of confusion. They quickly asked, “Master, what are you doing?”


  “Since I don’t know if this parchment scroll is useful, its better to try some different methods. If it is successful it’ll obviously be the best, but if it isn’t that’s fine too. If it isn’t it would have been useless in my hands anyway.”


  Baili Hongzhuang was indifferent. She knew that the method of burning it with fire was somewhat risky, but how would she know if it worked without trying it?

  If it failed, then it would not matter.

  Hearing it, the three beasts thought for a moment before they nodded their heads, what their owner said made a lot of sense, they had no reason to object.

  Baili Hongzhuang placed the parchment scroll on top of the candle, allowing for the heat to penetrate through the material.

  The parchment scroll twisted at this temperature for a moment, but Baili Hongzhuang saw that there were three layers to this parchment scroll.

  The front and the back were ordinary parchments scrolls and the landscape painting which had been drawn so beautifully had now become nothing.

  In the middle of the two layers, a small thin piece of paper appeared.

  “Success!” Little Black couldn’t help but be excited. This was truly the feeling of finding a treasure.

  Baili Hongzhuang’s lips also turned into a bright smile, it seemed that her judgement was correct!

  When she had rubbed the parchment scroll she had felt that the material was slightly thicker than normal, but there was really not much of a difference.

  She did not think that there was something wrapped within the two layers of parchment paper. It seemed that whomever had made this parchment scroll had spent a whole lot of thought on it.

  It was very difficult to make the parchment scroll this thin and perfectly blend the two pages together.

  Since even she had been unable to tell anything was amiss, Baili Hongzhuang knew that this was not an easy thing to achieve.

  After burning the parchment scroll, Baili Hongzhuang took the piece of paper that had been in the middle and placed it on the table.

  After the burnt paper slowly disappeared, Baili Hongzhuang saw the content of the paper.

  “This is a map?”


  After seeing the content that was drawn on the paper, Baili Hongzhuang could not help but be stunned.

  “Master, this should be a map,” Little Black agreed with a nod of his head, “however, this is not the entire map!”


  Baili Hongzhuang carefully looked at the mountains and rivers that were drawn on the paper, and she also saw a red route that was drawn onto the map.

  It was just that there was a starting point, but there was no end point to it.

  Looking at the mountains and rivers at the edge, Baili Hongzhuang could also be certain that this was not a complete map.

  “This should only be a part of the map. As for the other parts, I am afraid I don’t know where they are.”
