    Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1907


    “Hah! Just so you know, there didn’t even use to be a road on this mountain! This footpath here is the


    product of us mapping out the mountain for years! This path is considerably easy, you know? Some of


    the more difficult terrains require us to climb!” scowled Stanton—who was taking the lead—in a joking


    tone.


    While the trio appreciated the old man’s light-heartedness, it didn’t change the fact that all this hiking


    was a challenge for them. Even so, they were well aware that this was the only way they were going to


    be able to locate that cave… As they said, ‘No pain, no gain…’


    Regardless, after about an hour of trekking, the group finally arrived at an area with rtively tnd.


    Judging from how high up the mountain they were, they were possibly halfway up the mountain as well.


    With that in mind, looking down at the deep valley—that was now hundreds of feet below them—would


    make anyone feel giddy… Just as all three of them were trying hard not to think about how high they


    were, they quickly snapped out of it when Stanton called out, “Gentlemen! That’s the cave right there!”


    Turning to look at where Stanton was pointing, the three men could immediately see the two stone


    pirs standing before the blocked cave entrance… It was exactly like how Stanton had described the


    night before…


    Seeing that this was their stop, Gerald then nodded before saying, “So it would seem! Thank you for


    guiding us up till this point, chief! We’ll be heading there on our own now!”


    “Got it! Speaking of which, do be careful in there… Once you’ve located whatever it is you’re looking


    for, do return to the vige!” replied Stanton in a kind voice.


    “Loud and clear! We appreciate all the hospitality, chief!” dered Gerald and his party in unison before


    bidding goodbye and heading toward the cave…


    Stanton—and the other vigers—themselves continued on their own journey further up the


    mountain…


    Regardless, upon standing before the mouth of the sealed-up cave, Rey couldn’t help but say, “That’s


    one massive stone wall blocking the entrance… Still… Do you think there’s some kind of mechanism to


    get it to open, Mr. Crawford…?”


    “I do, and I’m pretty sure it’s around here somewhere,” replied Gerald. “Then what are we waiting for?


    Let’s hurry and find it!” dered Yann in an enthusiastic tone.


    All nodding in agreement, the three then began searching the area… and soon enough, they found the


    mechanism they were looking for…


    “Say… doesn’t the mechanism resemble The Eight Diagrams…? The one from Feng Shui…? Have


    you heard about it, Mr. Crawford…?” asked Rey as he looked at Gerald.


    Nodding slightly in response, Gerald then replied, “I have. While I’m not particrly knowledgeable in


    the art of Feng Shui, I do know that The Eight Diagrams are also known as the eight doors, and each


    door bears different meanings!”


    From the looks of it, the only way they were going to get the cave to open was by solving this Feng


    Shui- based puzzle…

    “I see… but… if even you don’t know much about Feng Shui, then doesn’t that mean that we’ve hit a


    dead-end…?” muttered Yann in a slightly defeated tone.


    “It’s still too early to give up! While it’s true that I don’t know much about Feng Shui, I believe that


    whoever made this contraption wouldn’t have made entry into the cave all that difficult. After all, the


    hard part is usually getting out of such areas. With that in mind, I’m sure we can at least make it inside


    if we just use our heads!” replied Gerald as he looked at the two.
