The lackey took out the old but perfectly intact piece of paper and presented it to Jiang Cheng. Then, he cautiously looked at the Gulat family member who was standing at the side.
However, Zhao Hai wasn't viewed as an enemy by the lackey.
Jiang Cheng realized that the lackey seemed to be inexplicably hostile towards the Gulat Clan member. However, the lackey himself was a member of the Gulat Clan.
Jiang Cheng felt it was a little funny. This lackey was really vigilant, but why did he trust him so much? Jiang Cheng secretly kept an eye on him.
"Hey, young man, you don't have to be like this. Am I not considered an outsider to you? Why did you choose to trust me and not him? You guys are from the same clan, "Jiang Cheng said to the lackey and pointed at the Gulat Clan member.
"Hmph, that person is a member of the Gulat Clan's direct line of descent. I can tell from his clothing. My mother told me before she passed away that the Gulat Clan's direct line of descent are not good people, "the lackey explained to Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng pondered over the lackey's words. He observed the surrounding terrain and carefully looked at the clues left behind by the lackey's mother.
"Hey, young man, what's your name? It seems like you have some sort of hatred towards the Gulat Clan's direct line of descent? " Zhao Hai, who was originally at the side, felt that this lackey was to his liking, so he asked the lackey.
"My name is Stealer Grove. That's right, Stealer. This is the name my mother gave me. Although I didn't understand why my mother gave me such an ugly name since I was young, my mother said that everything would be clear when I found that item. " Stealer Grove recalled and said, "Stealer Grove?" The Gulat Clan member softly muttered to himself.
"Stealer Grove?" The Gulat Clan member softly muttered to himself. Although that member of the Gulat Family spoke softly, it did not escape Jiang Cheng's ears.
Jiang Cheng glanced at the Gulat family member, then said to Grove Thief, "Alright, let's help you find the item your mother mentioned. As long as we find that item, all the mysteries will be solved. "
Grove Thief nodded with a determined look on his face, but it was soon covered by confusion. "What's wrong? Didn't your mother tell you how to use this clue? "Seeing this, Jiang Cheng guessed.
Grove Thief nodded, but the Gulat Family member who led the way came over and said to Grove Thief, "Can I take a look? I'm quite familiar with the terrain here. Besides, with that hero here, I won't be able to do anything. "
Grove Thief hesitated for a while, but he still handed the clue his late mother left him to the Gulat Family member to have a look.
After reading the clue, the member of the Gulat Family revealed a shocked expression. Then, he respectfully returned the paper that Grove Thief's mother had left for Grove Thief with both hands.
Then, he said to Jiang Cheng, Zhao Hai, and Grove Thief, "If this clue is correct, the location should be in front of us. We should follow the direction indicated on the map and look for it. We should be able to find that item. Hopefully, the clue is real. "
Jiang Cheng saw the change in the Gulat Family member's attitude and nodded. Jiang Cheng felt that he was not far from the truth of the mystery.
The Gulat Family member led the way in front, while Jiang Cheng and the rest paid attention to the surroundings. Jiang Cheng estimated that Kennedy and Mrs. Harris wouldn't leave so soon, so he first found the item that could unravel Grove Thief's identity.
Jiang Cheng and the rest walked for about three to five minutes before the Gulat Family member who led the way stopped at a patch of grass. After observing the surrounding buildings, he turned back and said to Jiang Cheng and Grove Thief, "It should be near here."
Hearing this, a look of excitement appeared on Geff's face. Jiang Cheng could understand. After all, this included Grove Thief's mother's last wish.
Jiang Cheng was a little confused. How did Grove Thief find a location that was three to five minutes away from here? Therefore, he looked at the Gulat Family member who led the way in confusion. But before Jiang Cheng could say anything, the Gulat Family member who led the way answered Jiang Cheng's doubts.
"Grove Thief held the blueprint upside down just now. The blueprint doesn't have any words, it's just pictures. Therefore, it's easy to read it upside down. Fortunately, I'm leading the way. Now, let's search here, "the Gulat Family member said.
Jiang Cheng nodded, then used his vital energy to sense the surrounding terrain and the situation underground. However, he couldn't find anything. Jiang Cheng felt that it was a little unbelievable. In the past, he could use his vital energy to sense items. Why couldn't he do it now? Or perhaps? There was no such thing as becoming the most talented member of the Gulat Family as long as one found it.
Before Jiang Cheng could say anything, Grove Thief squatted down and used his hands to dig the soil underground. Jiang Cheng clearly saw the fanaticism and a hint of relief in Grove Thief's eyes, so he didn't say anything. He really couldn't bear to pour cold water on Grove Thief. Jiang Cheng and Zhao Hai also followed Grove Thief to search for the so-called item.
Of course, the Gulat Family member who led the way also joined the search. Jiang Cheng didn't have any hope of finding the so-called item. The reason was mentioned just now. Jiang Cheng was thinking about when to reveal this point.
Time passed by. Just as Jiang Cheng was about to reveal this matter, Grove Thief exclaimed, "Found it! Found it! "Grove Thief shouted while looking at the sky. He didn't know if he should tell his mother that he found the item that she left for him, or if he should try his best not to cry.
"There's no reason? I have just used my True Qi to sense this piece of land, but there is nothing under the True Qi. How could it be … "Jiang Cheng was confused as he muttered to himself.
"Hero, there's something you don't know. Our Gulat Family's land can isolate vital energy, so the vital energy you used to sense the location of the item was ineffective." After the Gulat Family member who led the way heard Jiang Cheng muttering to himself, he explained to Jiang Cheng.
"Oh? So that's how it is. It seems that I've relied too much on vital energy and put the cart before the horse. "Jiang Cheng scratched his head and sighed in his heart. However, he needed to use vital energy frequently in order to be proficient. Many times his vital energy advanced was because Jiang Cheng's vital energy had been used up and he had reached his limit. Only then would he advance.
However, Jiang Cheng thought about it and felt relieved. His current goal was to strengthen the Lung Hing Society. He didn't want to be a cultivation expert. Survival was the most important thing. Therefore, he believed that Jiang Cheng would use his vital energy more often in the future.
"Burglar Grove, you open that box first. However, that box seems to be locked. "Zhao Hai reminded Grove Thief.
"Oh, okay, I'll open it now."
Grove Thief hugged the box and sat down. Then, he took out the wearer's "necklace" from his neck. Then, he inserted the necklace into the box's lock and twisted it to the right. The box was then opened.
After Grove Thief opened the box, he let out a long breath. Then, he carefully looked at what his mother had left for him. As far as the eye could see, there were two palm-sized boxes. There were only two things inside. One was a pendant, and the other was a letter.
The letter seemed to be from Burglar Grove's mother to Burglar Grove.
Grove Thief didn't know if he was too excited or he missed his mother too much. Even the hand that was holding the pendant was trembling. Grove Thief picked up the pendant with one hand and placed it near the same position as the drawing.
Then, he picked up the letter with both hands. After carefully reading the words on the letter, he slowly opened it.
Jiang Cheng felt a little embarrassed, so he pulled Zhao Hai and Gulat away. Before leaving, he patted Grove Thief's shoulder and said to him, "Grove Thief, don't be sad. You finally found what your mother left for you. Read the letter carefully. We'll wait for you outside. I think you need some time to calm down. "
After saying that, Jiang Cheng left with Zhao Hai and the Gulat family member. They waited for Grove Thief near the meadow.
Apart from Grove Thief, Jiang Cheng's group of three waited for Grove Thief. Jiang Cheng felt that Grove Thief would be able to keep his emotions in check. After all, Grove Thief's face showed a determined expression that normal people didn't have. Moreover, Jiang Cheng brought Zhao Hai and the Gulat family member to the meadow.
Apart from wanting Grove to be alone, he also wanted to ask about the Gulat Clan's member, who was a direct descendant of the Gulat Clan that Grove mentioned.
"You seemed to have a huge change in attitude towards Grove Thief just now? Could it be? Grove Thief's status is higher than yours? "Jiang Cheng said to the Gulat family member. The Gulat family was huge, so they still retained a certain feudal mentality. Therefore, they still valued things like bloodlines.
