Sumu wood in the quadrangle welcomes spring

This place is obviously a secret room dug out of the ground.

The layout of the two rooms is large on the outside and small on the inside, with a total area of ​​fifty or sixty square meters.

Open structure with arches in between.

The outer room is surrounded by densely packed bookshelves filled with books.

There are bookshelves on the two walls inside, but there are no books. They are filled with wooden boxes and bottles and cans. In the corner, I also saw a bronze tripod with obvious signs of use...

Refining elixirs?

Su Mu pouted.

The old man is having a lot of fun.

A severe patient in the cultivation mode...

On the wall facing the arch, there is an open grid with an incense burner and several simple furnishings placed on it.

In the middle is a gray-brown futon.

It was probably used by Gutou before for meditation.

"When we were forced to be sent out of the palace, we were treated as ordinary waiters and maids, so we had many opportunities to move back to the palace through secret passages..."

Aunt Li spoke in a chatty tone about the big secret that shocked Sumu's outlook.

The old man was obsessed with martial arts and emptied out the collections in the royal study. The antiques were brought out by hand, or they were originally used to contain books and prescriptions and supplements related to martial arts.

"Mom, those books you gave me before...?"

Su Mu hesitated for a moment and asked softly.

Although it was underground, there was no echo.

Su Mu saw some irregular fist-sized holes on the wall, perhaps used by the ancients to absorb sound.

"From now on, this place will be yours. I will help you clean up there. Don't worry, my wife's body and bones can still hold on for a few more years."

"what?"

Su Mu opened his mouth in surprise.

This result was something he didn't expect.

I just wanted to borrow a sesame seed, but to my surprise, the other party gave me a big watermelon and a bag of sesame seeds.

This is even more exaggerated than buying a casket for a pearl.

The last three sides of the Galeng Sutra are placed randomly on the third floor in the middle of the outermost bookshelf.

Slightly awkward, it was obvious that the 'martial arts secret book' that Su Mu cherished was not well received by Aunt Li.

"Also, come with me."

Aunt Li waited for Su Mu to get the tail scroll of the Galeng Sutra, then turned around and walked up the steps, urging Su Mu to follow.

And Sumu really couldn't pull his legs out.

There were so many things that he had never seen or heard of before, and he really wanted to plunder them all and then immerse himself in them and study them carefully.

Where others have abandoned it as a fantasy, in Sumu, with the help of Golden Finger Space, we can have the opportunity to realize its effect.

Facing this large pile of dazzling books, it was difficult for Su Mu to remain calm and calm.

He decided not to pretend anymore.

"Okay, these are yours from now on. Don't worry, come with me first and take you to see the others..."

Aunt Li urged her a second time, with a smile in her tone, as if she was coaxing her grandson.

It's just that Aunt Li has been in the palace since she was a child. By the time she was sent out of the palace, she was already past the age of childbearing.

As a result, he has no children and only an old man alone.

Su Mu turned around and walked out with Aunt Li.

Aunt Li told Su Mu how to close the secret passage, and also said that this mechanism was somewhat similar to the door stone in a tomb.

Aunt Li took Su Mu to the small courtyard in the middle.

"It turns out that this is a gate. A few years ago, the courtyard wall was knocked down and opened by Lao Gu and Xiujuan. They also moved some old bricks from the demolition of the city wall and built it up."

Su Mu nodded.

There are mostly small courtyards here, and only the middle courtyard is a second-entry courtyard.

"This is where I lived back then, come with me."

The middle courtyard belongs to Aunt Li. There is an abandoned pocket rockery pool in the corridor on the east side of the second entrance.

It's quite clean, but it's just that there's no water inside, so it's called abandoned.

There is a secret passage in the room on the north side of the east wing, and there are two rooms below, which seem to be in the same vein as the ancient one.

Well, maybe it was all done by a construction team.

Aunt Li said that there is a rockery and a pool above the head.

"Auntie, why didn't you get through to the master?"

"Back then, we all lived our own lives, but later on when we actually lived together, we became powerless..."

Su Mu thought to himself: It was not only because of his weakness, but also because he was forced by the situation and did not dare to make too much noise.

It should be said that these three remaining servants of the Qing Dynasty who came from the palace are quite distinctive.

I don’t know if all the attendants and maids have different hobbies, or if these three have the opportunity to travel together because they have similar temperaments.

There is no way to verify it anyway.

Although Aunt Li also practiced martial arts, that was just her way of survival in the palace. After she came out of the palace, she had no motivation to pursue the realm and improve those skills.

Her hobbies are similar to those of the Western dragon, yellow and shiny.

So in Aunt Li's underground secret room, there were piles of yellow and white things, very few antique jades, and a luminous pearl as big as a fist, which was known as a 'radiation source' in later generations.

"...Yours. From now on, these will all be yours."

Aunt Li stood here, her eyes filled with joy.

I think she really likes these.

It's probably like reading martial arts secrets from an old age.

And these are his too...

Su Mu had already made a guess, and looked at Aunt Li with a somewhat complicated look.

It feels like giving an account of the aftermath.

Most likely she treats Su Mu as her heir.

Su Mu is not stupid, but very smart.

This meaning was understood by Su Mu when Aunt Li pointed at the gold and silver jewelry that filled most of the secret room and said, "These will all be yours from now on."

The underground secret room of Xiujuan's small courtyard is behind the shadow wall and under the bamboo forest. You can enter it from the small room on the west wall. There is a secret door behind the cupboard next to the stove.

In comparison, this secret door seems a bit normal.

Xiujuan, the aunt who passed away early without ever meeting Su Mu, had the most normal hobbies.

Literati's calligraphy and painting, antiques and trendy items, well, I also collected a lot of 'imperial edicts' from various dynasties, as well as two 'death-free gold medals' that the owner was very happy with.

They are all very commemorative things.

The waist badge of the Jin Yiwei, the Black Dragon Guard waist badge of the pre-Ming dynasty, half a tiger talisman from the Western Han Dynasty, a scale talisman from the Sui and Tang dynasties, and a fish talisman from the early Tang Dynasty...

Although Su Mu had never met Xiujuan, he saw how she devoted herself to collecting these gadgets and even died on the way to 'Taobao'.

The image of the brain supplement is already very fulfilling.

Pixiu attributes are full of déjà vu.

"My dear, come over tomorrow and we'll go to the street to complete the formalities..."

Aunt Li wants to make a will, and the ownership of the house a hundred years from now will be given to Su Mu.

Su Mu wanted to say that he couldn't help it, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them out.

"Auntie, I will be your grandson from now on, and I will take care of you until you die."
