In this episode of The Sands of Time, John continues with his adventure to the Resolute Fist Retreat to search for the ancient writings of Qin Shan Hu.
This monk retreat is situated at the top of hills in China and John has to climb a fair way to get to it. Once he arrives, he proceeds to climb the many stairs to a room which contains a kitchen and bathroom to the side. More stairs take him up to bedrooms, more like dormitories, on the top floor.
John has been given a keystone and he searches high and low to see if there are any secret doors but alas, there are none. He wonders if there are any trigger items, such as flushing the toilet that would open anything but after trying, nothing works.
After looking around outside and the surrounding grounds of the Retreat, John notices a floor plate at the bottom of the steps which he had run right past when he arrived. However, as he was getting tired, he decided to sleep in one of the beds and start afresh in the morning.
After getting a good nights sleep, John proceeds to return to the foot of the Retreat and step on the floor plate. A stairway opens up and he cautiously descends the steps down into the depths of the retreat.
Luckily no traps await him, just a couple of rubble piles and a locked door. After clearing one pile, John notices a hole in the wall which after inspection, opens a secret door that leads to a treasure chest. The other rubble pile reveals some more treasure.
Now, the only thing that remains is the locked door...
