Just as Xu Jianguo was lost in his memories, the word "Tao" on the mural suddenly emitted a dazzling golden light. The sudden change woke him up and he quickly covered his eyes with his hands. After a long while, the scattered light began to slowly concentrate, and a beam of light shot towards the wall opposite the mural.
Xu Jianguo put down his arm, turned around and looked at the wall behind him. He found that the light projected by the word "Tao" revealed a huge flat world map on the stone wall. Nine red spots of light appeared on the map. These spots of light were scattered all over the world. Apart from them, there was nothing else on the map.
Xu Jianguo looked at the map and didn't understand what it was used for, but he thought that the places marked by the red dots should be very important.
He thought about it, took out the digital camera he had bought through the purchase list from the space, and took a few pictures of the wall. After looking at them again and finding them clear, he put the camera away with peace of mind.
Just as Xu Jianguo put away his digital camera, the light emitted from the word "Tao" gradually dimmed, and the world map on the stone wall also gradually faded with the light, and finally disappeared.
Xu Jianguo breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thankful that he had recorded it in time.
While Xu Jianguo was feeling relieved, he couldn't help feeling a little sad. This time when he came to the stone chamber, apart from the photos of the world map, he didn't find any other useful clues. He also didn't know when Funniu would recover. If he continued like this, the little girl wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer.
Xu Jianguo sighed heavily, turned around, bowed three times respectfully to the portraits of the Three Pure Ones, and prepared to leave.
But at this moment, a dull bell sound suddenly rang in Xu Jianguo's mind, shocking him so much that he stood there in shock, with stars spinning in front of his eyes.
As the bell rang, an old voice echoed in Xu Jianguo's mind: "A catastrophe is approaching, and all living beings will suffer. With immeasurable merit, immortality is within reach. The magic tool will circulate, and the spirit child will heal himself!"
Xu Jianguo listened to this familiar voice, exactly the same as the one he had heard last time in the stone chamber. A sense of hope rose in his heart, especially when he heard the last of the three cryptic sentences. He was even more delighted and asked quickly, "Senior, Fu Niu...your Taoist spiritual child is ill and is now unconscious. Please tell me, what can I do to save her?"
"Follow the instructions on the map and retrieve the lost magical instruments of our sect. Place them in the grooves on the stone wall behind you in order, and the spiritual child will be healed." The old voice said.
"Groove?" Xu Jianguo was confused and turned to look at the black stone wall behind him, but apart from the uneven stone wall, he did not find any groove.
"Senior, there are no grooves on the stone wall!"
"Come closer and take a look!"
Xu Jianguo walked to the stone wall, activated the Eye of Time and Space, and carefully observed the stone wall, only then did he discover the clue.
It turned out that when the golden light shone on the stone wall, the uneven stone wall would appear like a world map due to the light and shadow effect, and there would be a natural protrusion at the location of each red dot on the map, and under these protrusions were grooves of different shapes. Before, Xu Jianguo was standing far away and could not see it at all due to the dim light. If he did not have night vision and the Eye of Time and Space, ordinary people would not be able to find it even with a flashlight.
"I understand, thank you, senior!" Xu Jianguo said thank you in his mind.
"Remember! The ruler, rope, seal, sword, flag, whisk, ruyi, Bagua mirror and thunder-struck wood are all indispensable. Just go!" After the old voice sounded, everything on the mural disappeared without a trace.
Xu Jianguo stood still, took out a digital camera from the space, and began to check the position of each red dot one by one.
There are nine red dots on the map, corresponding to nine magical weapons. Four of the red dots are within the territory of Longxia, and the remaining five are abroad, scattered in different countries and regions.
Among the four red dots within the territory of Longxia, one is located right near Xu Jianguo’s old house. This surprised him greatly. He quickly compared the world map in his mind and found that the location of this red dot should be in this stone chamber.
Xu Jianguo was a little confused. He had used the Eye of Time and Space to check the entire secret room, but did not find any Taoist magic tools. He couldn't help but worry that the magic tools might have been taken away by someone.
But after thinking about it, he felt that it was unlikely, so he began to recall it in his mind. Suddenly, he remembered that when he first came here, he seemed to have taken a whisk from the altar. At that time, the old voice had also instructed him to keep it well. However, the handle of the whisk was made of two-world stones. At that time, he was only concerned with upgrading the space and did not take it seriously. After the energy was fused, he put the whisk into the space.
Xu Jianguo was overjoyed and quickly took out the whisk from the space. Looking at the black and white whisk in his hand, he felt much more at ease.
"There are still eight magical weapons. Funiu's situation is not optimistic. We must hurry up!" Xu Jianguo thought to himself.
After putting away the whisk, Xu Jianguo continued to pick up the digital camera and check it. In addition to the whisk in the stone chamber, the locations of the other three red dots within the territory of Longxia are Wawu Mountain in Bashu, Kunlun Death Valley and the Sea of Death in western Xinjiang.
Coincidentally, the red dot located on Wawu Mountain in Bashu is exactly in the Mihun Pond, which matches the location on the map that Xu Jianguo found from the Mingkong Futuan at that time.
Previously, when Xu Jianguo received the world map memory capsule as a system reward, he had checked the situation on the map and found a dilapidated Taoist temple and an old Taoist priest with white hair and beard in the Mihun Pond.
Xu Jianguo thought about it and decided to set his first destination as Mihun Pond in Wawu Mountain. Maybe he could learn some things he didn't know from the old Taoist priest.
After making up his mind, Xu Jianguo put away his digital camera, then walked back to the stone chamber where the statues of the Three Pure Ones were enshrined. After closing the stone door, he slipped into the space.
Xu Jianguo did not rush back to the hospital, but instead found a photo printer and printed out the photos in the digital camera for easy viewing later.
After putting away the photos, Xu Jianguo returned to the woods in the military hospital compound through the space portal, and then walked towards the inpatient department.
