Chapter 1221: Chapter 1221: She Seems to Have Understood Something
Xinyan counted and found a total of twenty-nine boxes, among which one box was different from the others.
After putting on gloves, she first picked up that box.
Although Mr. Gu was sitting there resting, his eyes were fixed on this side: "Yanyan, be careful."
Xinyan nodded to her grandfather and then turned her attention back to the box.
She had already checked, these boxes were all safe, with no signs of poisoning, so as long as there’s no hidden trick inside, it’s fine.
Stretching out her hand, she opened the lock outside the box, lifted the lid, and quickly stepped back.
Seeing that there was nothing unusual with the box, she approached it, only to find something unexpected inside—a small casket.
She raised her hand to take out the small casket and carefully opened it, finding a small brown ball the size of half a thumb inside.
For a moment, she couldn’t understand what this meant.
Could this be the thing that drove so many families crazy?
But when her hand touched the small ball, it inexplicably gave her a sense of familiarity, and she felt the space also undergoing an anomaly.
Immediately, it seemed she understood something.
The origin of her space, she still doesn’t know how it came to be, what its medium is, but now looking at this inconspicuous small ball, she suddenly became clear.
It seems it’s not just an unfounded rumor, but perhaps they didn’t expect the Gu family’s heirloom to be a piece of space.
She took off her gloves, wanting to touch the small ball.
Unexpectedly, the moment the ball touched her skin, it instantly merged into her fingertip, startling her.
When she came to her senses, she realized her consciousness couldn’t enter the space, and she froze there.
Mr. Gu noticed something was wrong with her and quickly walked up: "Yanyan, what’s wrong?"
Xinyan didn’t know how to tell her grandfather, so her face was full of conflict for a moment.
Mr. Gu, experienced and wise, glanced at the empty casket and then at his granddaughter: "Yanyan, why are you staring at this empty casket in a daze, you gave grandpa quite a scare."
Hearing her grandfather say this, Xinyan tried to sense the space again, but there was still no response, so she decided to drop the matter for now.
Afterward, Xinyan opened the twenty boxes one by one, almost getting blinded: fifteen boxes of gold bars, three boxes of silver ingots, and ten boxes of various jewels, all of which were not easily damaged.
Because they had been specially treated, upon opening, they still glittered without any sign of oxidation.
The two of them looked at these things and couldn’t calm down for a long time.
Compared to what she collected in the back mountain of the Mechanical Factory before, this was ten boxes more: "Grandpa, what should we do with these things?"
Mr. Gu glanced over: "Keeping them here is not a long-term solution, later you arrange for someone to take them away, as for the rest, let’s discuss it again after returning home."
Coincidentally, your mom mentioned wanting to register a real estate company some time ago and said there were some funding issues, we can give her a part to operate with."
The two didn’t stay there long, restored everything, and left the cave the way they came.
Looking at the cut vines on the cliff, Mr. Gu said: "These things must be taken quickly to avoid anyone accidentally entering this place and causing a stir."
Xinyan understood her grandfather’s meaning, but unfortunately, the space still couldn’t be sensed, so she’d have to make another trip.
After they descended the mountain, Xinyan first sent her grandfather back to the guesthouse to rest, considering his age and how he had been running around for so many days, likely reaching his limit.
Moreover, she could tell, her grandfather was in a very bad mood, probably reminded again of everything the Gu family had suffered because of these gold and silver items.
