Xu Mo was not very interested in the ethical spring/palace drama staged in the house, but as the young master of the Xu family, since he dared to come to his father's concubine Hu, it meant that there was definitely no one else in the courtyard, which reduced his trouble.

This is a side courtyard in the backyard, there are three main houses, a side room with a kitchen, theoretically speaking, Xu Hu may hide important things here for unexpected reasons, but it is daytime, the main purpose of his coming in this time is to figure out the layout of the courtyard, if possible, he would rather spend time in Xu Hu's main room to have a look.

The two cheating people in the house were getting hot, and they didn't pay any attention to the movement outside, Xu Mo almost swaggered out of the courtyard easily, and then entered the main courtyard through an open small door.

The layout of the main courtyard is obviously much more exquisite, there is a corridor that extends from the main house and sticks to the left and right walls, there is a pond full of lotuses, there is a small pavilion in the middle of the pond, there is a rockery three or four meters high on the side, next to it is planted with flowers and plants that are still verdant in this season, go inside, in the middle of the courtyard is a tall and straight tree called Tietong, perhaps because it is close to the big river, in the early winter season still maintains five or six percent of the leaves, and it is five main houses that are facing it.

Because it is the main courtyard of the house, there are only occasional Yahuan walking around in the huge courtyard at this time, but since there is Yahuan, there are others in the house, in order to avoid being discovered, Xu Mo simply hid behind the pillar in the corridor and quickly drew a "Listening Toad Picture".

The so-called practice makes perfect, and now he is becoming more and more proficient in doing this kind of thing, and then directly "immersive", it was transmitted to the westernmost room - whether it was from the layout of the house, or the news he heard from Xu Ling that night, this should be the study.

The position he chose was just under the window of the study, and the window was closed at this time, but it was naturally difficult for him, and he groped for a position with great resistance, and with a little force, he barely made too much noise, and the lock inside was broken by him, and then he looked out again, and quickly turned over and entered the house after seeing that no one had noticed.

When he entered the house, Xu Mo couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, this room is a veritable study, in addition to a desk, there is a bookcase more than two meters high on one wall, and four bookcases stacked together on the other wall, so many books, there must be books that can't be bought outside and can give him a deeper understanding of the world.

He was not in a hurry to find what Xu Hu was hiding, but planned to take advantage of the daytime to find a book that he might use, and, in order to prevent someone from entering the house and picking him up, he simply took the antidote and lit a fan made of "Thousand Silk Silks", in order to save time, he manually fanned it to another room, and after a while, the four people in the other rooms fell asleep.

Back in the study, he put on his homemade snakeskin gloves and poison mask, and began to scrutinize the shelves one by one, of course, it would be even better if he found the treasure that Xu Hu had hidden in the process - after activating "Insight", his greatly improved observation power would allow him not to miss any clues.

Two hours later, Xu Mo walked to the window, opened the window a little crack, took off the poison filtering mask, changed the air, and then couldn't help sighing, not to mention finding the hidden compartment and the like, most of the books on the shelves were similar to the four books and five classics in the previous life, and there was the time for the exam, and he didn't even have a travelogue, and he didn't go to the exam, these were useful to him!

Fortunately, there are also four baskets of books, and hopefully there are books that will work for him.

After resting for about twenty minutes, he turned around and put all the books back in place, and then opened the first bookcase, which contained the newspapers of the past years, which could help study the various dynamics of the government and the people of the Great Guang Dynasty, which were of some use to him, but now the time was not right, so he put them aside and opened the second and third bookcases.

There are still newspapers in these two bookcases, and the time is even earlier.

The last bookcase looked older, and it was a collection of Xu Ling's grandfather's scientific expedition essays and various words written over the years, which were of some value, but not much, but when he turned to the bottom and saw the things below, he couldn't help but be ecstatic!

At the bottom is a large and one more than two volumes of drawings, the big one is a detailed map of Boling County, on which almost all the villages and towns, mountains, forests and lakes in the county and the geographical features of various places are clearly drawn, although the other volume is small and incomplete, but it is more valuable to Xu Molai, because it is the territory map of the entire Great Guang Dynasty!

Similar to the previous dynasties before the founding of the People's Republic of China, maps were forbidden here, and after escaping from Baicaoju, he had been looking for a map, but there was nowhere to find it.

Without a map, I feel like a blind man, and I can only understand my surroundings through some travelogues and the hearsay of merchants, but how can these compare to a map?

His eyes looked over from Shengyun Mansion and Yunli Prefecture, which he knew better, only to find that the Daguang Dynasty actually had twenty-six state capitals no less than the size of the two prefectures, and the territory was much larger than he imagined, and in addition to the Qianchao across the Thundering Mountain Range, from west to north to east, it was also close to the four kingdoms of Lin Yue, Baichuan, Baxia, and Qi Sheng.

However, when it comes to these neighboring countries, they are just simple names, but for Xu Mo, it is already a rare broadening of his horizons, in addition, those are still far away from him, and the detailed geographical situation of the Great Guang Dynasty is the most important.

Of course, except for a few two or three, it may be that Xu Ling's grandfather visited the places when he was an official are more detailed, and most of the rest are relatively sketchy, and some only write the names of places and the mountains and rivers in them, but they are enough for him for the time being.

After he took a closer look, he carefully put it away, just this map, and he couldn't even find the treasure hidden by Xu Hu, even if he didn't come in vain this time.

....................................................................................

Of course, finding the map was a bonus, and he wouldn't leave now.

The other people in the house were still asleep, no one bothered, he began to check inch by inch the places where things might be hidden in the house or the secret room, and finally found the secret room, but it was the same as the situation of the Xu Ling family, it was just an escape space where some rice grain was stored, and I don't know if it was the tradition of their Xu family.

In addition, after waking up, Xu Hui, who entered the room and found that everyone was asleep, sneaked into the bedroom, he took the initiative to open the dark compartment under the windowsill, and took a handful of silver tickets from it, Xu Mo found two large account books along the way, the remaining 12,000 taels of silver tickets, land deeds, house deeds and Xu Hu's "Tiger Devouring Fist Method"!

Finding the "Tiger Devouring Fist Method", his goal was achieved again.

If it were someone else, who had discovered the escape secret passage, found the silver ticket, the ledger, and the "Tiger Devouring Fist Method" that Xu Hu relied on and Wang Xiancheng to dominate Boling, they would have thought that they had found all the important things, but Xu Mo personally heard him say that there were more important things hidden somewhere than those.

Where are they hidden?

Is it somewhere in this courtyard or some other side of the courtyard?

Xu Mo put himself in the other party's position and thought, for Xu Hu, if he can find the main house, it should not be safe in other places, so if he has valuables, he should hide them in other places that are not easy for others to find - this is very cheating!

If that's the case, no clues would be tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.

However, he thought about it again, in the county seat, and Wang Xiancheng, who competed with Xu Hu, it was unlikely that the place where the treasure was hidden would be in the city - it was nonsense to say that the most dangerous place was the safest place, and the county town was relatively crowded, and once the news leaked, there was nowhere to cry!

If it's not in the county, it's outside the city.

Generally speaking, because of the frequent military and bandit troubles in ancient times, the landlords and old fortunes who lived in the county often looked for a hidden place outside the city as a safe point, and some also had the role of summer heat.

Thinking of this, Xu Mo's eyes couldn't help but look at the ledger.

Next, he spent two days checking the Xu family's shops in the city one by one, and unsurprisingly did not find any treasures hidden.

He was not disappointed, this was originally to prevent if there was an omission, since there was not, he immediately made a decision, went out of the city that day, and began to check the Xu family's grange.

Even with maps and ledgers, it was much slower than he imagined, and seven days had passed in the blink of an eye, and he had just finished checking five Zhuangzi.

Xu Ling told him that when the Xu family's big house and two rooms were separated, his uncle Xu Hu occupied most of the land, and there were nearly 100 hectares at that time, and over the years, Xu Hu continued to take advantage of the situation, and the area expanded a lot, which was reflected in the account book There are a total of 19 granges.

Xu Mo didn't know where the so-called treasures were hidden, so he had to check them one by one, but after so much time, the Discrete Cultivation Bazaar was getting closer and closer, and he still had to find someone to buy an invitation order, so he couldn't help but get anxious, so he decided not to explore them one by one, but to focus on finding the places where he felt the most likely to hide the treasures.

On the eleventh day, he arrived at Zhuangzi, which was far away from the official road, in a remote location, only country roads, and it was very safe to hide things here, and it was also the ancestral forest of the Xu family, which was one of the most likely places for him to hide treasure.

This Zhuangzi is not big, there are only twelve households in total, with the previous experience, it only took more than an hour, Xu Mo searched it, but nothing was found.

In fact, through the experience of the past few days, he found that only Xu Hu's henchmen, that is, the place where the warriors exist, will have some relatively important things, these twelve families are all ordinary farmers, and it is normal not to have them, but he is not disappointed, in addition to Zhuangzi, he feels that there is another place worth seeing, that is, the cemetery.

The cemetery of the Xu family was built on a steamed bun-like mountain bag behind Zhuangzi, only a dozen meters high, Xu Mo was worried that if there were people on it, he would be found if he went up directly, so he simply found a haystack to rest for a while, and only prepared to act at night.

After sleeping during the day, he not only relieved the fatigue of running around in recent days, but also rested his spirit, and reflected in his actions at night, he was very keen to find a few vigilant traps - this is not a barren mountain or a wild mountain, and these traps are definitely not to prevent wild beasts!

If he doesn't defend against wild beasts, he naturally guards against people, and he can't help but lift his spirits.

When he arrived at the periphery of the cemetery, he saw the two huts built next to him, and the two martial artists who were strong and strong at first glance and had cultivated at least the third layer of the Diyuan Realm were drinking, Xu Mo was sure that he had finally found a place!
