Liyue Taoist of the original god

Ouyang stood in front of the mansion, looking at the closed door. Only the side door was still open. The decoration was covered with white silk, and white lanterns had been hung up. As he walked into the mansion, the maid guards had white cloth tied around their waists.

Working in silence, the liveliness and vitality in my memory were completely gone.

Ignoring them, Ouyang walked all the way. He wanted to find the manager of the family, Guiping.

Guiping, he and Gui'an before him were the highest-status housekeepers in the family. They were responsible for the internal affairs and the external affairs, and they had supported the operation of the entire family in the past.

And Guiping's status is slightly higher, because he is the family's chief steward personally appointed by the head of the family.

Under the rule of Emperor Yanwang, there was no slavery in Liyue, and all the guards and servants in the family signed contracts every five years.

However, with the steady development of Liyue over thousands of years, major families have also grown. Among those families that have been standing for many years, there will always be some people who have signed contracts for many years, and there are even people who have worked exclusively for one family for generations.

.

These people are not being exploited. Generally speaking, major families are willing to use them. The two have always had a contractual relationship, but years of accumulation have added a layer of master-servant relationship.

Guiping and the others are like this. When their ancestors moved from Guiliyuan to Liyue Port, they have always been servants in the family. They have been passed down from generation to generation to Guiping. He always thought that life would go on like this, but he did not expect that the situation would take a turn for the worse.

It will be so fast.

In just one month, everyone in the family is about to die. Fortunately, the young lady Xue Lian is still pregnant, so there is a glimmer of hope. But now she is relying on the medicine of Bu Lu to hold her breath.

Now the last hope seems very slim.

Guiping, who was arranging matters, saw Ouyang approaching, and finally a smile appeared on his sad face. Then he rushed forward with a sad face and said: "Master..."

"What's going on at home now?"

Ouyang was not polite and said straight to the point: "Such a big thing happened at home. Let's not talk about old times and other things. Let's talk about the things at home that need me to make decisions."

"Uh...ok."

The two of them walked to the living room on one side, and after sitting down, Guiping began to talk about the big and small things at home.

Similar to the information we received before, the house of your family, which was in turmoil, was indeed about to collapse. After Guijin died unexpectedly, the head of the family was so angry that he passed away within a day after receiving the news.

The young lady who was the only one in power in the family fainted several times. Fortunately, Bu Bulu had great medical skills, but something would eventually happen if things continued like this.

After understanding everything, Ouyang thought for a while and said: "Guiping, you first send people to the Shengtang and ask them to come to the house to handle this white matter. Then go to the warehouse to check the property, and immediately start again.

Organize the goods to be sent to Mondstadt, and the business with Mondstadt cannot be cut off."

"As for Xue Lian, protecting her and the child is the most important thing now. I remember that there is a treasure pill at home. Now that I am back, I will go to Guanhai Pavilion to look for it."

"Since the young master is back, I will listen to you."

"Now that you're tired, go ahead and do your work. I'll go to Guanhai Pavilion."

After finishing the instructions, it was already time for the lights to turn on.

Ouyang left the front hall and walked to the backyard. Guanhai Pavilion is the tallest and most important building in the family. It has seven floors. The top floor can overlook the entire Liyue Harbor, so it is called Guanhai Pavilion.

I slowed down as I passed by Tingzhuyuan. This is the courtyard where Gui Jin lived before. Now the closed door looks much deserted under the moonlight.

Although he could see the light in the room inside, Ouyang did not choose to go in. He and Xue Lian had never met before, so it was not appropriate to go in now.

I continued walking along the corridor and finally came to Guanhai Pavilion. I looked at the seven-story building. From the outside, it looked like an ordinary high-rise building. Because it had not been repaired or repainted for many years, the mottled walls looked desolate under the moonlight.

few.

Ouyang recalled that he had been influenced by the game in the past and always thought there was a treasure box above. He instigated Gui Jin and the two to climb the outer wall when they were discovered and were beaten.

I remember that my favorite thing at that time was watching the harbor view from the attic on the seventh floor in the evening. Occasionally, Gui Jin would come over with Crescent Xuan’s golden crab, and the two of them would brag about it while eating.

All the good things are in childhood.

But in fact, the entire Guanhai Pavilion is a closed-loop magic circle building. Inside the building, there is a space similar to the Chensong Pot. This is the reason why the family established the Guanhai Pavilion. The treasure pill Ouyang wants to get is also here.

.

After walking in, Ouyang saw that the entire Guanhai Pavilion was brightly lit. Looking up, he could directly see the top platform. He did not go directly to the stairs leading to the upper floor. Instead, he stood in the center of the hall and closed his eyes to communicate with his spiritual energy.

The magic circle on the ground floor of the hall.

When he opened his eyes again, all the scenes in the hall had disappeared, and everything was pitch black. Ouyang was not surprised. The spiritual power in his body continued to circulate, and his hands drew a complicated magic circle in the dark space. This was

The key to entering the interior space of Guanhai Pavilion has been taught before.

As the magic circle was finished, the magic circle floating in the air lit up and quickly merged into the ground, and then the entire field of vision lit up.

In a huge space, the first thing you see is boxes, but when you open them, you find that they are all empty.

The surrounding shelves were basically empty, with only a small amount of porcelain and some unique copies left.

Sure enough, it looks like the family is in decline...

This was originally a place where the family stored some antiques and treasures. I remember that there were many good things here in the past. In my memory, there should be a top-quality floating stone here, but unfortunately these are gone now.

Without stopping any longer, Ouyang turned around and walked up the stairs. If Bao Dan was not here, it would have to be on the uppermost core floor.

Go up the winding stairs to the second floor. On the platform is a stone wall with a complicated magic circle painted on it. Another "key" is needed here.

Each formation master has different formation habits. If there is no key, no one can predict the consequences. And even though he has read books for so many years, Ouyang is not very good at cracking formations.

.

According to the knowledge taught before, Ouyang continued to draw a formation in mid-air to prepare to open the door.

As the light circulated, the stone wall did not open. Instead, it emitted a ray of light to wrap around itself, and then teleported again. What appeared in front of you was a low table with a letter and a box placed on the table.

The scene in front of him made Ouyang feel a little different. He had been taught how to open it. When he was learning formations, he and Guiping had been to the upper level before. He didn't remember that there was such a place.

Walking forward, his eyes were attracted by the word "Ouyang" on the envelope. He opened the envelope and found a thin page of paper inside.

"Ouyang, when you open the upper level in the way I taught you, you will be teleported here.

The noble family was once a large family, but over the past thousands of years it has become a single lineage. It has gradually declined. The complete genealogy is no longer available, which is a pity.

Your physique is special, and it is really suitable for practicing formations, so I decided to adopt you at the beginning, but I didn't expect that this might be one of the most correct choices I have made in my life.

Now my grandson's sudden death has left me mentally and physically exhausted, and I can't wait for the next generation to grow up.

I hope you can support this family until Guijin's children grow up.

please.

Everything in the family is entrusted to you. If you don't want to take care of it, then your family's fate will be like this, and I don't blame you.

In the box next to it is the family head's seal and the will I wrote. These can provide you with some conveniences. It depends on your own decision as to what to do.

You can make the choice you think is right, any choice is fine.

Do not blame you."

After reading the letter with mixed emotions, Ouyang felt that this thin page seemed to weigh a thousand pounds. In his previous life, one person had enough to eat and the whole family was not hungry. Now it is really difficult for him to carry the whole family.

Thinking on the bright side, I originally wanted to settle in Liyue Port. Now that I have achieved this, even if my family becomes lonely, I can still live a relatively prosperous life.

But these things should not belong to him, and his outlook on life made him feel as if he was holding a hot potato in his hand.

He was sincere in not wanting anything from the entire family, and he just wanted to help as much as possible when he came back. But the letter meant that it would not be finished until Xue Lian's children grew up.

This... we can only do our best.

Taking a deep breath, Ouyang opened the box, which contained the family head's seal and a will. There was also a jade pendant symbolizing the family head's status. Underneath these were some house deeds, land deeds and other contracts.

It seems that these may be all the family's assets.

Picking up the jade pendant and observing it, it was all green, with the shapes of glazed lilies carved on both sides, and the word "gui" engraved in the middle of the flower.

It's ordinary, it just has a symbolic meaning, nothing special.

After packing all these things, he opened the will and took a look at it. Ouyang was stunned.

The content of the will is very simple, that is, all the assets of your family will be inherited by Ouyang.

What's not simple is the emperor's contract mark behind the signature.

The weak fluctuations of elements in the mark indicate that this will is a contract signed by the family head and Uncle Erzhu using secret methods.

Those who break their promises shall be punished by eating rocks!

Even the process of registering inheritance property at Qixing is saved, and it’s done in one step.

How can I repay this kindness?

After packing up everything, using the seal infused with spiritual power, you will see a flash of light and arrive at the real upper space.

There are rows of bookshelves here, filled with books, basically all kinds of skills and secrets. Ouyang did not rush to look at it. He came to the shelf with elixirs on one side, took the elixirs and left the room.

Haige.

The most important thing right now is to rescue Xue Lian and ensure that nothing happens to her or the child.

The death of the old family head and Gui Jin means that no one in the family can enter Guanhai Pavilion to get the treasure pill. They can only survive by relying on Bu Bu Lu's medical skills. Now with the treasure pill that only immortals can refine, it should be possible to get better.

.

In the front hall, after arranging for Guiping to send a treasure pill to Xue Lian, Ouyang came to the mourning hall and sat in meditation.

He will keep vigil all night.

Looking at the two coffins in the hall, I felt a little bitter in my heart.

After traveling through time, his already mature outlook on life meant that he did not have a deep affection for his family, but such trust made Ouyang feel like he was carrying a heavy weight on his shoulders.

For things like raising children, the family's assets should be sufficient. The problem now is that I can't be too promiscuous and must be more stable, otherwise my children will be handed over to a family riddled with holes when they grow up. It seems like it would be better not to have anything at all.

Ouyang, who had never experienced anything like this before, put aside the turmoil in his mind and decided to take it step by step.

Let’s talk about it first.
