Xu Jianguo walked into the secret passage and began to walk down the stone steps. While counting silently in his mind, the Eye of Time and Space began to scan the space under the stone steps one by one.
Just when he reached the 99th step, he suddenly made a discovery. He saw that under the Eye of Time and Space, there was a long secret compartment under the stone slab of the steps. In the secret compartment was a transparent box made of unknown material, which was exactly the same as the box used to store the magic weapon.
In the transparent box, there are two ancient books in thread-bound format wrapped in oilcloth.
Xu Jianguo had been curious about the material of this transparent box, so he planned to lift the stone slab to see if he could take the book out. However, just as he was about to do it, he accidentally noticed out of the corner of his eye that there seemed to be something different on the stone steps near the stone wall.
He walked a little closer, squatted down and observed it carefully, and then he found that there was a groove on the stone steps, and inside the groove there were some lines similar to those inlaid with thin metal wires, which looked ancient and mysterious.
Xu Jianguo looked at the shape of the groove and found that it was actually an octagon, which immediately gave him a familiar feeling. After a moment, a light bulb went off in his mind, and a Bagua mirror suddenly appeared in his hand. It was the one he had taken away from the ruins of Wuwei Temple before.
Xu Jianguo held the Bagua mirror in his right hand and compared it with the void above the groove. Based on his observation, he could be sure that the Bagua mirror could fit perfectly with the groove.
"Could it be that this Bagua mirror is the key to unlocking the inheritance?" Xu Jianguo thought to himself.
After a while, Xu Jianguo put away the Bagua mirror, stood up and walked to the place where the ancient books were placed. With a thought, the two ancient books placed in the transparent box were put into the space.
Xu Jianguo nodded with satisfaction. His plan was very simple. Since Funiu's bloodline was needed to unlock these inheritances, he would take these inheritances away in advance to prevent the little girl from being harmed.
If his guess is true, there will be no need to draw Funiu's blood.
Xu Jianguo did not stay any longer and turned around to continue walking down.
Half an hour later, Xu Jianguo stopped in front of the fifth 99-step stone staircase. He first put the things in the transparent box under the stone staircase into the space, then came to a place near the stone wall and observed the groove on the ground.
This time the groove is very interesting. Its shape is very strange. There is a round hole in the middle of the round groove, which looks like a keyhole.
Xu Jianguo looked left and right for a long time, but couldn't figure out what kind of magic weapon this was prepared for. Suddenly, he seemed to realize something, and took out the black and white whisk from the space. After comparing it carefully, he found that the size of the hole in the center of the groove was exactly the same as the size of the whisk handle.
After resolving his doubts, Xu Jianguo stood up and took away the items in the secret compartment.
As he walked along, he discovered that the inheritance under the stone steps was not all books. There were also some items commonly used by Taoism and Buddhism. For example, among the things he had just taken away, in addition to three ancient books, there was also a bowl often used by Buddhists.
At first glance, this bowl looks pure black, but if you look closely, you will find that it is actually a dark purple with a few gold lines occasionally mixed in the middle of the dark purple. I don’t know what material it is made of.
It took Xu Jianguo nearly an hour to reach the end of the stone steps. The two stone doors in which he had cut holes stood quietly in front of him.
He walked forward and opened the two stone doors. What should have been an underground cave behind the doors was now an earthen wall.
Xu Jianguo closed the stone door, turned around and walked towards the stairs. On the way, he used the Eye of Time and Space to scan the entire secret passage again. He didn't find anything else, so he returned to the house of Wuwei Temple through the gap and turned around to restore the antique shelf to its original place.
Xuanjue, who was drinking tea, saw Xu Jianguo coming back and quickly put down his teacup to greet him. He asked, "How is it? What did you find?"
Xu Jianguo didn't plan to tell the old Taoist the truth for the time being. He also wanted to test the old man to see if there was anything else he hadn't told him, so he said, "I've made some discoveries. I found nine grooves in the secret passage, one of which is exactly the same size as the Bagua mirror. I guess the magic weapon might function like a key, but I still don't know how to use the spiritual child bloodline."
The old Taoist nodded and said, "Don't worry. Didn't you say before that you would use a magic weapon to save my nephew's life? I think the most urgent thing is to find other magic weapons first. As for bloodline and other things, let's talk about it after we find other magic weapons."
Xu Jianguo glanced at the old Taoist priest inconspicuously, nodded and said nothing.
"Boy, I haven't met my little nephew yet. Don't you plan to take me to meet him?" asked the old Taoist priest.
"See you, I'll take you there now!" Xu Jianguo said, and then took him away from Wuwei Temple.
When the two men walked out of the woods, the scene before them once again shocked the old Taoist priest.
"Jianguo, is this all yours?"
"Yes, look, that's the planting area, and that's the breeding area. There's all kinds of grains, vegetables, and meat. Eat as much as you want."
“…”
"Is that a mountain in the distance? And what's that next to the Taoist temple?" the old Taoist asked, pointing to the golden mountain in the distance.
"Yes, it's a mountain made of gold. The one next to your Taoist temple is made of silver!" Xu Jianguo said with a Versailles expression.
"I... fuck... cough cough cough!" The old Taoist priest almost choked to death on his own saliva. He felt that the Taoist heart he had cultivated for decades was almost destroyed.
"Master, don't get excited. These are all trivial matters. I don't have time now. Please wait for me to resolve the issue of Funniu. I will take you to Xiao? Benzi's place and we will get back all the things they stole from us!" Xu Jianguo said gritting his teeth.
The old Taoist priest narrowed his eyes, a murderous intent emanating from his body. He said, "Alright, it's settled! I was powerless before, but now that you're here, let's go make some noise and let those bastards experience despair."
After a passionate old man and a passionate young man made some plans together, they walked towards the courtyard.
The two of them walked through the supermarket and into the courtyard. The old Taoist priest saw the well in the corner at a glance and said, "Boy, this well is a good thing!"
"Master, you have good eyesight!" Xu Jianguo turned around and gave him a thumbs up.
"Woof woof" Xiao Hei ran out of the house after hearing Xu Jianguo's voice.
