Just another whimsical dream...

Ba Noi knew she was going to die soon so she took us up to a hill. She rode a white horse. We had to climb. And the mountain was really steep and took a really long time to climb. But we did it. The family. Chi Phuong and Ba Noi's brother was there. She took us up all the way to the summit and then dug a hole. It didn't take long before she hit a metal vault (it looked like one of those sewer doors). She pulled up a box from it and opened it up. Inside were a whole bunch of license plates for fishing boats (which were apparently very expensive because everybody was in awe at how much money she had kept in secret). She gave me the key to the secret treasure and trusted us to not fight for the wealth after she died. However, just as she said that, her brother somehow took the key from my hand when he ran away with his wife. Fortunately, I retrieved it, but he fell to the ground and bled to death.

Analysis: I believed it was inspired by my reading of "The Count of Monte Cristo" when Abbé Faria was about to die and entrusted the secret treasure riddle to Dantes.
