A leisurely life: I have a scenic area

Chapter 126 Finally, we can go to Peach Blossom Spring!

Have you collected them all?

"Finally, I've collected them all!"

"You can put the nine-piece puzzle together!"

"Let's find a place to meet and do the jigsaw puzzle!"

The first group to collect all nine puzzle pieces was a four-person team.

The four had a clear division of labor, worked separately, and quickly reunited after collecting all the puzzle pieces.

Once all nine puzzle pieces are assembled, a landscape painting appears on the front.

Upon closer inspection, it looks exactly like the scenery of Little Butt Mountain.

The back has two lines of text in different colors that look like gibberish, but by connecting the four colors, you can get the answer:

"A Corner of the Ancient Village - The Music Room"

"Tai Chi Palace - Chess Game"

"In the Pavilion of Ten Thousand Swords—Scrolls"

"Suspended Temple - A Pictorial Representation"

The four of them looked at the words on the back.

"It's quite clever; these words are all colored, and you have to collect all the puzzle pieces to figure out which one is which."

"The arts of music, chess, calligraphy, and painting? A new clue!"

"I guess we'll still have to do a mission!"

"Everyone should keep a low profile. The scenic area also reminds players to keep the clues safe. Only the first person to arrive will receive a reward."

"Then let's split up!"

The four of them whispered among themselves, then chose a direction and immediately headed off to different places.

The more difficult the situation, the more excited they become.

With such a popular event, they must be eagerly anticipating the final answer.

The four were not far from the ancient village. One of them, named He Fei, wandered around the village for a long time before finally finding his target in the southeast corner.

It was a room with the door tightly closed, and a flag hanging next to it had a large character "琴" (qin, meaning zither) written on it.

If you didn't know the clues, you would probably just think this was a decoration in the scenic area.

He Fei approached and saw a line of small characters by the door that read:

Please knock three times.

The man immediately knocked on the door three times.

An aged but deep voice rang out from inside the house, "Please come in!"

He Fei immediately pushed open the door and entered.

As soon as he entered, his eyes lit up.

Inside, the room was decorated in an antique style, and an elderly man dressed in a Taoist-like manner sat on the floor with a guqin (a traditional Chinese stringed instrument) in front of him.

"Sir, do you have nine receipts?"

The old man asked.

"Ah, no, it's with my companion."

He Fei responded somewhat awkwardly.

"Only by collecting all nine tokens can you undergo the musical challenge."

"Please leave, sir!"

Upon hearing the old man's words, He Fei immediately replied:
"Wait a minute, I'll go get him right now!"

……

The activities at the scenic area were incredibly lively.

Moreover, as long as you can get three different puzzle pieces, you can redeem them for small prizes at the scenic spot.

Three or more can be redeemed for drinks, commemorative badges, refrigerator magnets, etc.

You can redeem small toys, free admission, and more for six yuan or more.

Therefore, everyone was extremely enthusiastic about participating.

At this moment.

Inside the gambling den.

The anchor, Yang Long, was shouting:

"I'll pay 100 pieces to anyone who has the last piece of the puzzle in the bottom right corner!"

His assistant was filming the live stream.

"I'll also offer 100 pieces to buy the jigsaw puzzle!"

A young livestreamer nearby was also shouting.

Yang Long's live stream room is becoming increasingly lively.

[Brother Bug, this won't do! You haven't collected them all yet!]

[Haha, he just lost all three puzzle pieces at the casino! He had to buy them all again!]

It's best to play games and win puzzle pieces; you should win clues honestly!

[Paying players generally don't do quests! They just buy whatever they can!]

This activity is so much fun!

Everyone shouted.

At that moment, a tourist brought over a puzzle piece, and Yang Long recognized it as the one he needed.

He was overjoyed and immediately made the deal.

"It's all together! It's finally all together!"

He was slightly excited.

As soon as these words were spoken, many people immediately gathered around, craning their necks to see, wanting to get a complete look at the clues.

Seeing this, Yang Long went straight outside.

He found a chair, placed the nine puzzle pieces on it, and pieced together the mountain scenery of Little Butt Mountain.

Turning the page over, you'll see two completely incoherent sentences.

"What does this mean?"

"Ancient Taishu Ten Thousand Swords..."

Why are the words in different colors?

"Colorful, could it mean... a rainbow!"

"The Peach Blossom Spring must be located beside water!"

"I remember there was a small waterfall in the scenic area!"

Yang Long suddenly realized.

Seeing his expression, netizens who had already figured out the answer helplessly slapped their foreheads.

[This level of intelligence is basically beyond deciphering!]

Why don't you read the words of different colors together?

[It means four coordinates!]

Is he really a genius?!

Fortunately, he had over 1 viewers in his live stream.

People can all offer him advice.

Yang Long glanced at the comments and then suddenly realized what was going on.

"So that's what it meant."

"It's made so complicated."

"Ancient village, Taiji Hall..."

"The Taiji Hall isn't far, let's go check this area first!"

Yang Long understood the message and immediately ran towards the Taiji Hall.

The Taiji Hall remains as imposing as ever, with a black and white color scheme throughout. In front of it is a large square with a Taiji diagram and a coiled dragon stone pillar.

The main hall doors were open.

Yang Long immediately went inside and passed directly through the main hall. Deep inside the hall, there was a room with a banner hanging in front of it bearing the character "棋" (chess).

"This is it! We've found it!"

"That's pretty well hidden!!"

Yang Long's face lit up with joy.

A middle-aged man dressed in a Tang suit saw Yang Long approaching and asked him:
"Fellow chess player, have you collected all nine tokens?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Long quickly took out nine puzzle pieces.

"Everyone's here! Everyone's here!"

The middle-aged man, after checking and finding no problems, applied some fluorescent powder to the puzzle piece to prevent reuse, then reached out and said:
"Please come in!"

Yang Long prepared to walk inside.

The assistant explained that he was there to film, but was still stopped at the door.

Seeing this, Yang Long had no choice but to take the phone and put it inside himself.

There are 10 chess sets in the room.

On the other side of the chessboard, there is a child who is eight or nine years old.

The chess games are Go, Chinese Chess, Chinese Chess, Checkers, and International Chess, with two tables for each game.

There were adults watching over them.

Yang Long looked around.

One tourist was already engrossed in playing checkers.

"This……"

Do you play Gomoku (Five in a Row)?

Yang Long couldn't help but ask.

To find a paradise, you also need to know how to play chess.

The viewers in the live stream immediately burst into laughter.

[Can't even kids win?]

[I don't know how to play a game!]

You stream your chess game, let me play!

We'll help you!

Everyone started making noise.

Yang Long quickly came up with a good idea. He downloaded a chess software, selected the chess king difficulty level, and then let the child play against the chess king.

However, just as he was about to do so, his staff stopped him.

Live reminders are available, but cheating using software is not allowed.

In order to be the first to find Peach Blossom Spring, Yang Long immediately sought help from netizens and engaged in a difficult game of chess with an eight-year-old child.

As it turned out, the child was very skilled, and the two fought for more than twenty minutes before a winner was decided.

"We won! We finally won!"

Yang Long stood up and shouted excitedly.

"Congratulations to this chess player for completing the game and receiving the reward!"

"This is the proof of entry to Peach Blossom Spring."

Seeing that he had won, the middle-aged man immediately handed him a black token.

The token has the word "chess" written on one side and a number on the other.

This number is the longitude of the scenic area to two decimal places; there are a few more digits on another token.

"Latitude and longitude!"

"The scenic area is only so big; you need to know the exact latitude and longitude to find Peach Blossom Spring!"

"We've finally made some progress."

"I'd like to see where this Peach Blossom Spring is!"

Yang Long quickened his pace in the search.

But there are still three hurdles to overcome.

By the time he found the music room, some tourists were already coming out.

"Brother, how do we get past the zither hurdle?"

Yang Long asked impatiently.

The tourist was very kind: "He just plays a few notes, and you reproduce them on a set of chime bells."

"Very simple."

"Anyone with even a little musical background can do it."

Upon hearing this, Yang Long was completely stunned.

Is this simple?
Most people wouldn't do that!

Then, after thinking for a moment, he added:

"Brother, are you selling the token?"

Upon hearing this, the tourist said:
"I won't sell it; I still want to collect all the rewards."

"However, I can help you take the exam."

"How much can you give?"

Yang Long immediately said:
"five hundred!"

"make a deal!"

"So refreshing?"

"Transfer the money first, and I'll let you know after I finish the exam."

"Row."

So the tourist took Yang Long's puzzle into the music room, took the test again, and soon returned with a token.

Yang Long was overjoyed upon receiving the token:
"Why aren't you in a hurry to collect all the tokens? The first person to find Peach Blossom Spring will receive a special reward!"

He asked impatiently again.

Upon hearing this, the tourist calmly replied:
"I just saw a group of people who have collected all four tokens. The first place has been decided."

"If we make it into the top 100, we'll probably get a consolation prize."

"If you give me 500, I'll definitely take it!"

Yang Long's expression changed:
"Huh? Someone's already collected all four tokens!"

"I rely on!"

"I still want to be number one!"

"No, I have to collect the other two quickly!"

"I absolutely have to go into this paradise!"

Yang Long took the puzzle pieces and the token and left in a hurry.

The viewers in the live stream found it increasingly interesting.

[Go for it, Brother Bug!]

Almost all of them are collected!

Don't let us down at this last Shangri-La!

[Someone's faster than those who spend money on the game? Could it be another player who spends money?]

The comments kept scrolling.

Yang Long, on the other hand, was in a hurry to complete his next mission.

The calligraphy and painting games are relatively simple. For the scroll, visitors only need to write "The Peach Blossom Spring" once with a brush. The painting studio is located in a painting of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" by the scenic area owner, Qi Yue.

That's right, the games played in the art studio are just that peculiar.

Fortunately, Yang Long recognized Qi Yue and searched for a long time before finding Qi Yue playing with two puppies by the river.

If he hadn't had such a sharp eye, he really wouldn't have been able to find it.

In a rush, all four tasks were completed.

He has finally obtained the final coordinates of Peach Blossom Spring.

We finally arrived at Peach Blossom Spring!
That's really not easy!
