Chapter 40 The Poor Innocent Death 24
The room was very tidy, with only a thin layer of dust on the furniture. She first went to a room that her original self had hardly ever been to before.
This was the room that Wuwang never allowed his original self to enter. It was also the only door in the Taoist temple that was locked all year round. When Qu Nannan opened the door, she saw the portraits of the Three Pure Ones enshrined there at a glance.
As the door opened, one could smell the scent of sandalwood. The house was not remote, and people from the village would occasionally come over to burn incense. Why were these memories subconsciously ignored in the original body's mind?
Qu Nannan wouldn't think too much about things she couldn't figure out, after all, that was not part of her mission.
Following the prompts from the image that suddenly appeared in her memory, Qu Nannan found small secret chambers in several places, took out the things inside one by one, and placed them on the table in the yard.
Wuwang really considered every aspect of the matter for the original body. Knowing that he didn't have much time left and didn't want to put pressure on the original body too early, he used the tone of storytelling as usual to tell the original body the location of these things.
If the original body had not been in such a state of excessive grief and had carefully recalled the last scene of her contact with Hopeless, she would have been able to find these things and would not have ruined her body in such a bad way just to earn tuition to support herself.
She dusted herself off and sat on the stone bench in the yard, looking at the things on the table one by one. The gold, silver and jade artifacts all looked quite old. As long as she took out one of them and sold it, her four years of university life would not have been so hard.
There is also a property certificate, which is the property certificate of this small Taoist temple, including the ten acres of land around the temple. There is also a passbook. When I opened it, I saw that the name was Qu Nannan. It seemed hopeless to save money in Qu Nannan's name.
The number inside was considered a huge sum of money in this village, a full 500,000 yuan, enough for the original body's tuition for four years of college. She had planned everything for the original body, and it seemed that she really loved the original body as her adopted daughter.
There were also several old ancient books, all about Taoist heritage. She opened them and took a look. These books were much more profound and comprehensive than those books that Master Xuanhai treasured.
"Elf, can I keep these books for myself?" If I take these back to Xuanhai, the old man will be very happy.
"Of course you can. The original body gave her to you, so everything she has should belong to you."
Thinking about how much effort and money I have put into fulfilling my original body's wish, I don't feel so guilty about taking these things.
Finally, there was a palm-sized diary and a letter with the words "From my daughter" written on the envelope.
My daughter
When you read this letter, Hopeless Mom has already left. Don't be sad, Hopeless Mom has just changed her life to another world. Hopeless Mom guesses that my daughter must have been admitted to the best university, because in Hopeless Mom's eyes, daughter is the smartest child.
So Hopeless Mommy told you where the hidden things were in the form of stories. With your daughter's intelligence, she must have found them, right? These are the confidences Hopeless Mommy left for you, but don't tell these things to others.
Money is attractive, and only secrets that no one knows are the safest. This money is enough for you to go to college, and if you want to buy a house, you can also sell one of the antiques.
The people recorded in the diary are all those whom Hopeless Mother has helped. If you encounter something that you cannot solve one day, you can go to them and ask for help, but once is enough, don't ask them too much.
My daughter, your hopeless mother hopes that you can live a good life, enjoy life freely, and not become a slave to life and money.
Goodbye, my dear.
Because the original owner was so smart that she only lit up the learning skill, otherwise she would not have thought of such an obvious hint. She would not have made her body look like a 50- or 60-year-old man because of life. Wuwang had a thick filter for the original owner.
Put these things into the space: "The elf is scanning it for me again, is there anything else here?"
"Scan completed. There is nothing else hidden here, host. But I think the set of tools in the hopeless room is pretty good. Will the host take it away?"
The system is talking about magical instruments such as the Hopeless Compass and the Peach Wood Sword.
"Take it away, you must take it away, otherwise you won't waste such good things." In the eyes of those who don't know anything about it, these are just rubbish, and it would be a pity to throw them away.
Qu Nannan carefully put the letter back into the envelope. She planned to build a tomb for the original body in the future, and bury this with it. She couldn't tell whether the original body was smart or stupid. Because of a negligence, she could have lived a smooth life, but ended up living a miserable life.
Suddenly, Qu Nannan felt her body loosen, as if a shell that had always been ill-fitting suddenly fit. She thought of the words of concern she had said involuntarily at the village chief's house yesterday.
"Elf, is the original body's soul also always in the body?"
The elf shook his head: "No, the original body's soul should be in the main system, watching the development of things on our side."
"Then why do I subconsciously care about the old village chief and feel a sense of stagnation in my body?"
"That should be the obsession left by the original body. As long as the obsession is gone, it will no longer affect your emotions."
Qu Nannan nodded. It turned out that the original body's obsession had just disappeared. What was the original body's obsession? Could it be that Wuwang left too suddenly? She had never understood why Wuwang didn't tell her in advance? Now that she saw the letter, those obsessions disappeared.
I shook my head. This wasn't a puzzle game. These weren't the key points. Now I felt that my souls were more in tune with each other and my body was more comfortable. I no longer felt excluded. This was good.
When Qu Nannan heard the chaotic footsteps, she quickly put away the things on the table, and saw Fifth Aunt coming in with the aunts and grandmothers from the village.
"I knew you hadn't been home for so long, so you came back here directly. How are you going to clean the house without bringing anything?"
"Aunt Fifth, why are you here?"
"Come and help you clean up. Aren't you planning to come and live here? It's been a long time since you cleaned up properly. How long are you going to finish cleaning up by yourself?"
As they talked, the aunts started to work. They were all used to doing the work, and their hands and feet were very nimble. Qu Nannan didn't even have to do anything. In less than an hour, the small Taoist temple seemed to be shining, as if the old and dilapidated atmosphere was instantly eliminated.
"Okay, let's have the men come over this afternoon to check the roof. It's raining a lot right now so we don't want it to leak. We can also bring your luggage up while we're at it."
