Lu Changge stood up and walked slowly to the side of the Nianquan ancient well.

The well mouth of the ancient well was not high, only two layers of stone bricks were used to build a low circle. Standing above and looking down, one could clearly see a pool of clear spring water, reflecting the faces of the people above the well.

When Tang Tian first moved into the Purple Bamboo Courtyard, he often sat by the ancient well with Gu Xiaoxue, discussing the Dao. The natural aura emitted by the Nianquan spring had a good promoting effect on their comprehension of the Dao.

However, as their strength grew stronger later on, the effect of the ancient well on them became negligible, and they basically stopped paying attention to it.

He didn't expect that there would be something hidden by Lu Changge there.

"You haven't been down there, have you?"

Lu Changge asked.

Tang Tian shook his head.

It was just a natural spring, who would specifically go down to the bottom of the well?

Unless that person had a problem with their head.

"I have been down there."

"Or rather, I used to go down there often."

Lu Changge said.

Tang Tian: ...

"What did you do down there?"

He couldn't help but ask.

Lu Changge turned around and smiled, saying, "Of course, I was just playing."

"At that time, I was still very young, but my personality was very wild. I was jumping around all day, like a wild monkey."

"But Grandpa Zhu never stopped me, he just told me to be careful."

"I remember it was summer at that time, the weather was hot, but because of the nature of the Nianquan spring, it was naturally cool. Even if you just stood at the well mouth, you could feel a refreshing coolness."

"So, I had a sudden idea and jumped in directly, but I almost drowned in it."

Lu Changge looked at the ancient well and continued, "Later on, although I was rescued, I still liked the cool feeling at the bottom of the well very much."

"So not long after, I jumped in again and almost drowned again."

"A few days later, the same thing happened for the third time."

"Then, Grandpa Zhu really had no choice but to create a small space at the bottom of the well specifically for me, so that I wouldn't drown when I went down and could continue to play there."

"In the following years, the Nianquan ancient well became a small world exclusively for myself."

Listening to Lu Changge's narration, Tang Tian remained silent.

He never expected that Lu Changge, who was so cunning, would have such a legendary past.

It was really surprising.

Fortunately, Master Zhulin had a kind and gentle personality. If he had encountered some hot-tempered parents, they would have probably beaten him to a pulp.

"Is what Master Zhulin left for Chi Yuan also there?"

Tang Tian asked.

Lu Changge nodded.

"After that incident, I left the Purple Bamboo Courtyard and went to the Cloud Summit Heavenly Mansion."

"But before leaving, I placed that thing in my secret base."

"There are no defensive formations there, and that thing won't generate any Dao fluctuations, so it's basically impossible for anyone to discover it unless they personally go to the bottom of the well."

"So, it must still be there."

Tang Tian fell silent.

This way of hiding things was indeed clever. Apart from being naturally damaged, it was almost impossible for cultivators to discover it.

Of course, it could also be because Lu Changge was still too young at that time and could only choose such a hiding method.

"Then let's go take a look," Tang Tian said.

Lu Changge nodded.

Soon after, the two of them, one in front and one behind, jumped into the Nianquan Ancient Well.

The well was narrow but not deep. In the blink of an eye, they arrived at the bottom of the well.

It was indeed cool here, and extremely quiet. The natural aura was also very strong. For ordinary people or Qi Refining cultivators who had just entered the cultivation world, it was indeed a very good place for meditation.

Upon entering the well, Tang Tian immediately saw that a small space had been opened up next to the bottom of the well.

The space had been specially reinforced, so there were no weeds growing. However, due to the constant moisture from the Nianquan, it looked a bit damp.

But the inside of the space was quite dry.

And in the innermost part, there was a small bamboo bed, a bamboo chair, and a pile of things that looked like toys for children.

Perhaps after many years, those toys had been corroded to some extent, and they looked a bit dilapidated.

"I really wish memories could decay over time like these things," Tang Tian said.

"But unfortunately, the longer the time, the clearer certain memories become, and sometimes they can even wake you up in the middle of the night."

Lu Changge walked in and habitually sat on the bamboo bed.

The bamboo bed creaked and almost fell apart.

Tang Tian also entered.

Indeed, as Lu Changge had said, there was no fluctuation of any cultivation methods here. It was like a place built by an ordinary person.

And indeed, this was a place for children to play. Everywhere there were traces of childishness carved into the walls.

Looking at the peculiar patterns on the wall next to the bamboo bed, Tang Tian curiously asked, "What are these?"

Lu Changge glanced at them and then smiled, saying, "Just a child's fantasy."

"At that time, Grandpa Zhu was studying some formations related to the soul, and I happened to see them."

"I wanted to learn, but he said I couldn't handle formations of that level yet, so I just messed around on my own."

Tang Tian carefully looked at the patterns on the wall. They were indeed chaotic lines, without any order.

It was just a child scribbling and drawing.

"Guess where I hid that thing?"

Suddenly, Lu Changge turned around and asked with a smile.

Tang Tian was instantly speechless. When he came in, he had already discovered a hidden compartment in the wall above the bed.

In that compartment, there was a special box completely isolated from the outside world.

Unless he was blind, how could he not know?

Looking at Tang Tian's expression, Lu Changge shook his head disinterestedly and said, "Well, you must have already found it a long time ago."

"I thought I was being clever and hiding it very secretly."

Tang Tian shook his head inwardly. This guy, as soon as he arrived at the Purple Bamboo Courtyard, he acted like he had been set free, instantly becoming hundreds of years younger, incredibly childish.

After Lu Changge finished speaking, he walked to the head of the bed and pressed a hidden switch.

A small hidden compartment appeared before their eyes.

Inside the compartment was a small box with an ancient fragrance.

The box was not an ordinary item, but a treasure that could shield detection. Even after so many years, it still maintained its original appearance without any decay.

"This is what Grandpa Zhu left for Chi Yuan," Lu Changge said, and then handed it directly to Tang Tian.

Tang Tian took the small box and inspected it before slowly opening it.

A fragment of memory appeared before him.

The thing that could unlock Chi Yuan's heart demon turned out to be a memory left behind by Master Zhu Lin.
