Chapter 321 Things in the Box

After pushing the short stick into the hole, it is likely that the lock spring inside will be triggered immediately. If there is a problem as a result, the gain outweighs the loss.

When Hu Ba saw Chen Ziyan's movements suddenly stopped, he asked: "Mr. Chen, do you have any more questions?"

Chen Ziyan didn't hide it from him, and directly expressed his doubts: "I'm wondering which side to start from. According to the shape of the hole, it should be the dragon on the left and the tiger on the right. I just don't know if this order is the dragon first as usual.

Houhu."

As soon as Hu Ba heard Chen Ziyan's words, he immediately understood his concerns and said quickly: "This is really an oversight. How could you forget such an important thing in the excitement."

Then he looked at the copper box in front of him, wanting to see which one he should choose. At the same time, Hu Bayi was thinking that King Xian was good at using Feng Shui to guide his layout, and the copper box in front of him most likely needed to be combined with Feng Shui.

Just fine.

But just when he thought of this, a flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind, and everything he had seen and heard since passing Zhelong Mountain was connected together at this moment.

As his thoughts swirled, Hu Bayi gradually formed a topographic map in his mind. When the topographic map was completely formed, he suddenly understood that this mausoleum area seemed to intercept the heaven and earth, but in fact it was a half.

A special mixture of natural and semi-artificial Feng Shui.

It can be said that except for the core 'Water Dragon Halo', most of the other auxiliary points should be the acquired products obtained by forceful practices through unnatural means.

Thinking of the description of pattern modification in his own Feng Shui secret technique, the first thing that Hu Bayi thought of was the saying "dragon and tiger stalemate". If the two locks on the copper box in front of him really reflect Feng Shui, then it would be very interesting.

Maybe it has something to do with this.

It's just that he is a little unsure now whether the dragon and tiger in the realm here have been reversed.

But after weighing it for a moment, Hu Bayi felt that he might be worrying too much.

This "situation regulating qi" that has changed the pattern is estimated to rely on the delicate balance of the clear and turbid qi of yin and yang. If the dragon and tiger are reversed, it will inevitably cause the pure and turbid qi to become chaotic. At least it will show the appearance of jealousy, and at worst it will cause

The three disasters of wind, ants and water converge.

However, Hu Bayi felt that King Xian would not be so unwise and act like this despite knowing that there would be endless disasters.

Thinking of this, Hu Bayi decided to judge directly according to the Qingwu Principle, and first took the dragon head that reflected the Qingyang Qi.

"Master Chen, open the dragon head side first!"

"good."

Chen Ziyan didn't ask any further questions and immediately pushed the dragon's head into the hole in the copper box.

He still trusted Hu Bayi's attainments in this area, and knew that since he spoke, he must have thought it over carefully.

Click——

A soft sound was heard, and the short staff of dragon and tiger fit into the copper box.

After shaking it a little to make sure it was really all the way, Chen Ziyan wanted to turn it, but after trying it left and right, he found that he couldn't turn it even an inch.

This state seemed particularly weird, but in order to prevent damage, they really had no good solution for the time being.

Seeing that many attempts were fruitless, Chen Ziyan planned to take out the short dragon-tiger staff and try it in the keyhole corresponding to the tiger head.

But just when he completely pulled away the short stick, he heard a mechanical sound coming from the copper box again.

Chen Ziyan and the others only heard differences in the sounds before and after, but Shirley Yang heard the problem.

So she looked at the copper box and said, "If I guessed correctly, there should be a special mechanism in there that compresses the spring when it moves in and bites when it moves back. The dragon head should have been turned on now."

Then Shirley Yang signaled to Chen Ziyan to continue without worries and pushed the tiger head at the other end into the keyhole. Apparently she was very confident in her judgment.

There were no other signs now, so Chen Ziyan chose to believe Shirley Yang and decisively put the tiger head into the copper box.

Although this copper box seems to be a mechanism arranged based on Feng Shui, it seems that this mechanism is relatively pure at present, and Shirley Yang is undoubtedly an expert in this field, so the credibility of her judgment is still very high.

Chen Ziyan operated according to the sequence last time, and when the familiar sound of the machine fell, they saw the copper box visibly trembling, followed by a very clear sound of gears turning. But when everything stopped again,

There was no movement in the box, and there was no sign of it being opened.

Chen Ziyan wiped the dirt on the short staff of Longhu, looked at Shirley Yang who was listening and asked: "Shirley, what should we do next?"

He had done everything he could, but now the copper box didn't give the response it deserved, and he had no other solution, so he had to ask for help from the experts in the team.

"The box has been opened."

Shirley Yang looked at the tiny gap between the box surfaces and said softly.

These gaps were extremely secretive, and it would have been difficult to spot them if she hadn't been paying attention.

Then she took out her paratrooper's knife, widened the gap a little, and then pulled the lid hard, and the copper box was completely opened.

The hidden arrows and poisons they were worried about before did not appear at all, and the copper box seemed to have no other mechanisms.

After confirming that there was no mechanism, several people looked into the box. At this time, Shirley Yang told them that the structure of the copper box seemed simple, but in fact there was another mystery in the thick copper plates, which formed an absolutely sealed storage inside.

Object space, so that the items placed inside will not be affected by time.

While Shirley Yang was explaining, Chen Ziyan and the others also used the light to see clearly the specific situation in the copper box.

As Shirley Yang said, this copper box is an absolutely sealed space, so the overall look is very 'new'.

The inside was divided into three compartments by two copper plates, and three things were placed respectively.

Several people looked at each other, and Chen Ziyan said: "Let's look at each one one by one. Everything in here should not be simple."

They started looking at it from left to right. In the leftmost grid was a waxy egg-shaped object that looked like an egg, but was much larger than an egg.

After taking it out of the box, you can see that the surface of the object is covered with a layer of steamed wax, but some traces of jade can be seen from the damaged areas. It looks crystal clear and smooth under the light. I guess there must be a piece of jade under the wax shell.

Beautiful jade.

But after they removed the wax shell, they discovered that the jade was not the final object, but just like the outermost wax shell, it was also a part of the protective measures.

And it can be seen through the clear jade layer that there is another layer of protection underneath.

However, he was not busy opening the jade shell, but studied the patterns carved on it.

I saw extremely fine cloud patterns carved on the jade layer, mixed with some other patterns, such as dragons, tigers, beasts, mountains and trees, which together formed a solemn image of clouds and fog.

The carvings on the jade shell have obvious traces of totemization, and they seem to represent the ancient scene of Zhelong Mountain.

"I didn't expect that even this protective layer is a work of art. It would be a pity if it was damaged like this." Wang Kaixuan saw these carvings on the jade layer and thought that he would need to destroy it later, so he couldn't help but said with some regret.

.

Hearing this, Chen Ziyan turned the object in his hand in front of him and said: "This jade material is not a whole piece. Look at the obvious splicing marks. Let's follow these splicing points later and it won't cause too much damage."

Damaged.”

He also felt that it was a pity to destroy the jade egg like this. This thing looked like it must be four to five thousand years old, and it was probably something preserved from the Neolithic period.

"What a great love!" Wang Kaixuan was immediately overjoyed.

He didn't see the specific value of this thing, he just felt distressed.

After they carefully peeled off the jade layer, the object revealed the next layer of protection, this time a layer of dense cork.

This time, Chen Ziyan didn't feel any distress at all and just cut open the cork layer with a knife.

When this last layer of protection was removed, they finally saw the true face of the object in Lushan!

This heavily protected object is a blue stone bottle that is forty centimeters high and about ten centimeters thick.

This blue vase has a straight mouth, a tall body, a bulging belly, a thin neck, and three low ring legs sticking out. The mouth of the bottle is completely sealed, and there are five strangely shaped thorns on the shoulder near the mouth of the bottle.

The short tube looks very similar to the spout of a hip flask, except that the mouths of these short tubes are sealed.

There are also some diamond-shaped patterns on the bottle body and roots, which seem to give the blue bottle a three-dimensional feel.

Although this heavily wrapped bluestone bottle has a simple shape and a warm color that looks like a work of art, it can be seen from the sealed bottle mouth that it is also a container.

Encouraged by curiosity, Chen Ziyan didn't bother to think too much and simply opened it.

Anyway, we have reached this last tremor, there is no reason to stop here.

But when Chen Ziyan opened the bottle cap, he only saw a pool of clear water inside, which made everyone except Chen Ziyan a little confused.

Do you think this water bottle needs to be so careful?

"There seems to be something in the water." At this moment, Shirley Yang suddenly reminded her.

Then she took the bluestone bottle from Chen Ziyan's hand and tilted the bottle slightly. Only then did the others discover that there was a small blue fetus hidden in the clear water in the bottle.

The fetus looked no bigger than a fist. Although its body was curled up, its head was slightly raised, as if it was looking at them outside.

"This fetus is very realistic in appearance and posture. It looks just like the real thing." After taking a closer look, Hu Bayi commented.

Ding Sitian also said: "The material of this fetus... looks like jade, it should be a jade fetus."

"Jade fetus? That's a treasure!" Wang Kaixuan said subconsciously.

Then, without waiting for anyone else to reply, he nodded to himself. To be able to collect it in such a careful way, this jade fetus is definitely a priceless treasure.

Chen Ziyan nodded and said: "This jade fetus is definitely a treasure, even the water inside is not simple."

He did not ignore the clear water that contained the jade fetus in the bluestone bottle. Although this thing only had a few words in the original plot, the fact that it could be put together in the bluestone bottle showed that this was no ordinary water.

And it is impossible for ordinary water to remain so crystal clear after being sealed for thousands of years.

So he had reason to suspect that the water was some kind of special liquid.
