"I know you still have a lot of things to do, so go get busy!" Wen Sitian pushed Xu Jianguo away and said with a slightly red face.
"Okay!" Xu Jianguo answered without telling Wen Sitian about the idea that had just come to his mind.
Watching the few people walk away, Xu Jianguo did not rush to the study. Now that there were two more people in the courtyard, he needed to solve the housing problem first. Although there was still a bedroom on the second floor, the children would grow up one day, so it was better to make plans early.
Xu Jianguo stood in place, and with a thought, the entire courtyard began to change.
About half an hour later, the renovation was completed, the previous two-story building disappeared, and a three-story courtyard appeared in front of Xu Jianguo.
This may not be vivid enough, but the first courtyard is in the shape of a "mouth", the second courtyard is in the shape of a "sun", and the third courtyard is in the shape of a "eye".
The location of the supermarket remains unchanged, it is placed at the gatehouse at the entrance to the courtyard. The side rooms on the left and right sides are still warehouses, utility rooms and toilets, which are no different from the original appearance of the courtyard.
In addition to the east and west wing rooms and the main house, the second courtyard also has a corridor. In the center of the courtyard is a wishing pool made of water and strange rocks, and he also placed a few carp in the pool.
The third courtyard serves as the private residence of Xu Jianguo and Wen Sitian. The main room is their bedroom, the east wing is Funiu's room, and the west wing is Xu Jianguo's study.
The Seven Star Teleportation Array was placed in the center of the three-courtyard courtyard, the well was placed in the corner, Xiao Hei's luxurious doghouse was under the eaves of the east wing, and the time and space portal and space pawnshop were both placed by Xu Jianguo in his study.
Xu Jianguo purchased a new batch of furniture and appliances through the system mall, then called Fu Bo and asked him to rearrange the three rooms in the second courtyard according to the previous standards. He himself walked into the secret room in the study, and then came to the bottom of the glacier in Antarctica through the space portal.
A white light flashed, and Xu Jianguo appeared in an ice room. In front of him, Xu Fei and Xu Yang were standing on both sides of the big seal, scanning the surroundings vigilantly.
When the two saw Xu Jianguo appear, they hurried over and said, "Master!"
"Well, thank you for your hard work!" Xu Jianguo said, and then he walked to the seal and observed it carefully.
After looking at it for a while, Xu Jianguo was about to reach out and pick up the seal, but when his palm was still more than ten centimeters away from the seal, he felt a sharp chill coming towards his palm.
Xu Jianguo was shocked and quickly withdrew his hand. When he raised his hand, he found that a piece of ice crystal had formed on the palm of his hand.
After thinking for a while, Xu Jianguo said, "You two stay here and watch. I'll be back soon."
After saying that, Xu Jianguo flashed back to the space and walked towards Wuwei Temple.
"Huh? Boy, what happened?" The old Taoist Xuanjue looked at the anxious look on Xu Jianguo's face and asked.
"Hurry, Taoist priest, put on thick clothes and come with me. I have found the ninth magic weapon!" Xu Jianguo said.
"What? Found it? Wait, it will be there soon!" The old Taoist priest quickly agreed when he heard it.
He found the down jacket and pants that Xu Jianguo had prepared for him, quickly put them on, then put on his hiking boots, grabbed Xu Jianguo's arm and walked out.
Xu Jianguo looked at the old man's anxious look and felt a little amused, but he did not stop him.
The two of them arrived in front of the courtyard. The old Taoist priest looked at the house that had changed drastically and asked, "Boy, what's going on?"
So Xu Jianguo told the old Taoist priest about Daya and Erya, and also told him about the old Taoist priest asking for water.
"Old Taoist priest, would you like some water to drink?" the old Taoist priest asked with a strange expression on his face.
"Hmm!" Xu Jianguo nodded in response, but when he saw the strange expression on the old Taoist's face, his heart skipped a beat and he quickly asked, "Master, what's with that expression? Don't tell me that old Taoist is your master!"
"Uh... this is really possible! According to what you said, three years ago, the old Taoist went to Daya's house to ask for water, and my master returned to Wuwei Temple two years ago. At least in terms of time, it matches." The old Taoist Xuanjue said.
"Well, there's no point in saying anything else. Regardless of whether he's your master or not, this thing has already happened." Xu Jianguo said somewhat helplessly, but in his heart he was criticizing the old man he had never met for causing trouble for him.
Without much delay, Xu Jianguo brought the old Taoist priest to the secret room of the study in the third courtyard and walked into the space portal.
When the old Taoist priest looked at the almost transparent seal in front of him, he was extremely excited.
Xu Jianguo, standing nearby, said, "Master, when I reached out to take it just now, I felt an extreme chill on my palm, and a layer of frost formed on it. What's going on?"
"This should be a barrier set up by the Taoist predecessors. To put it bluntly, it is an anti-theft measure. The ultimate goal is to prevent people who are not from the Taoist sect from obtaining the seal." The old Taoist priest said.
"That's easy. Aren't you a Taoist? Why don't you give it a try?" Xu Jianguo said.
The old Taoist priest stood up straight, nodded, then made hand gestures, muttered something, and then began to practice the Taoist skills he had learned.
After a moment, the old Taoist priest opened his eyes wide, and slowly stretched out his right hand fingers towards the seal in a unique shape.
However, his situation was not much better than Xu Jianguo's. When he was still a few centimeters away from the seal, his palm was suddenly bounced back.
The old Taoist looked at the ice crystal in his palm, looked at Xu Jianguo awkwardly, shook his head and said, "Boy, I can't do anything about it. Why don't you just put it into the space?"
Xu Jianguo smiled bitterly and said, "Master, if I could have taken it, I would have done so long ago. I tried before when I failed, but I couldn't take it away. That's why I came back to ask you to come."
"Oh, if my master were here, this would definitely work. What should we do now?" asked the old Taoist priest somewhat frustratedly.
Xu Jianguo thought for a moment and then asked, "Master, is there anything special about the pose you made with your fingers just now? Does it require any mental skills or techniques? Can I learn it?"
"You must use my Taoist mental method. The hand gestures are only auxiliary. The most important thing is internal strength. Only with profound Taoist internal strength can you break the protective barrier of this seal." said the old uncle.
"Taoist secrets?" Xu Jianguo suddenly thought of the Taiqing Jue he had learned, and asked with some surprise.
"Yes, the Taoist secrets!" the old Taoist nodded.
"Okay, I'll try again!"
