Everyone agreed with Lu Wenle's opinion, and then, people worked in groups of two to lift the box to the ground.

Because they were worried about destroying the contents of the box, everyone handled it with care, so it took more time, and there were more boxes, and it was not until the afternoon that everyone moved the boxes in the stone chamber close to the innermost ones.

Just as someone wanted to lift one of the boxes, Meng Zitao suddenly felt a palpitation, and hurriedly shouted: "Stop!"

The people around were taken aback by Meng Zitao, and several people who were about to carry the box also quickly stopped.

"Zitao, what's wrong?" Lu Wenle hurriedly asked.

Meng Zitao said: "Suddenly I have a very bad feeling, I am worried that there are also mechanisms under these boxes. ”

Regarding Meng Zitao's answer, Lu Wenle initially thought that Meng Zitao was bitten by a snake and was afraid of the well rope for ten years, but after thinking about it again, such worries are also reasonable, if there is indeed a mechanism, it may mean that it is difficult for the people in the stone chamber to be destroyed, and they can't take such a big risk.

But there are still so many boxes here, if they contain items of extremely high research value, would they just give up? Lu Wenle will definitely not be reconciled.

Meng Zitao put forward an idea: "Senior brother, you go out first, leave me here alone, I will check the box, if there is no danger, then take it." ”

Zhang Shouping objected: "But this is too dangerous for you." ”

"Don't worry, I'll be fine, you can rest assured. ”

Meng Zitao spent a lot of time getting Lu Wenle and them to agree to his proposal, and when the others were withdrawn from the stone chamber, he would check the remaining chests.

With the help of the ability, it was too easy for Meng Zitao to identify the problematic boxes, and in the end, it was confirmed that only one box had problems, and the other boxes were all moved out and transported to the research ship one by one.

As for the last box with problems, although Meng Zitao said that he could use his ability to check whether there were any treasures in it, but the result obtained in this way must not be taken out and said, so he could only use tools to violently open it, as long as it was verified that there was nothing else in it, he could explain to Lu Wenle and them.

"No, I'm really stupid, and there's no one else here, so why don't you just use your abilities to check the situation inside?"

Meng Zitao patted his forehead, and used his ability on the box, which checked the artifacts inside little by little, and then restored it in Meng Zitao's mind, and finally came to a result that surprised him.

This box is full of complex mechanisms, not only will lifting the box trigger the mechanism, even if the box is opened or because the box is broken, the mechanism will also be activated, as for the consequences, it is obviously not much better than the previous encounter, and it is even more dangerous, otherwise intuition will not warn him.

Meng Zitao was a little glad that he was clever, if he hadn't thought that such a situation might occur, so he would have opened the box, and he would probably have fallen on the road.

Meng Zitao stood up and said in his heart: "I just don't know if the black fire will come to this place, if it comes, maybe this organ can still pit them." ”

The treasure was found, and Zhang Shouping also asked his subordinates to investigate the entire island, and no other entrances were found, so everyone returned to the research ship with peace of mind.

When the research ship returned, Lu Wenle couldn't wait to open a box, of course, this box was because there was a problem with the lock, otherwise he wouldn't have opened it.

With as much safety protection as possible, Lu Wenle opened the box, only to see that it was a rectangle wrapped in oiled paper, which looked like books, which made his breathing a little shorter.

Meng Zitao said, "Senior brother, do you want to open it and take a look?"

Lu Wenle was a little moved, but in the end he shook his head: "No, the environment here is not very good, let's go back and open it again." ”

Speaking of which, he looked at the boxes piled up in the cabin, turned his head and left: "Don't look at it, it's a complete torment here!"

Meng Zitao smiled and followed Lu Wenle out.

There was no need to go around the way back, there was nothing to do all the way, the research ship docked at the nearest domestic port, and then airlifted all the boxes to the capital without stopping.

It was late at night when the box was transported to a cultural relics research institute in Beijing, but Lu Wenle couldn't wait any longer, and prepared for safety protection.

The moment I saw the "Yongle Canon", there was a burst of exclamations around.

Lu Wenle's face was a little red with excitement, and it took a long time to control his emotions, and then he walked in front of Meng Zitao and bowed deeply.

Meng Zitao hurriedly helped him up: "Senior brother, what are you doing!"

"No, Zitao, you deserve my thanks!" Lu Wenle said deeply: "Since the partial loss of the "Yongle Canon", how many generations have been running around for it, but the final harvest is very little, you are a dream of several generations of us!"

"Senior brother, don't say that. It's all up to everyone's efforts, and some of the clues I got were purely because the blind cat hit the dead mouse, and it was a coincidence. Meng Zitao said.

Lu Wenle smiled and shook his head: "Even if the blind cat hits the dead mouse, no one else touches it, but you do, this is your credit!"

Meng Zitao said, "Senior brother, what should we do next?"

Lu Wenle said: "These books have been stored for hundreds of years, and they are still stored on the island, although they are also protected by layers, but in the end they are still relatively fragile, and when researching, there is no guarantee that there will be no accidents." So my idea was to make a photocopy of everything in the book and then study it. This will not affect the original situation. ”

The researchers around Meng Zitao all agree with this idea, after all, many of the ancient books in the Yongle Canon are very precious and unique, and some even record history and technology that no one knew before, and some of the records in it will definitely have a huge impact on the study of history and many other aspects. If nothing else, the construction of Zheng He's treasure ship alone is a very remarkable technology.

According to records, there were five types of ships in Zheng He's fleet to the West. The first type is called "treasure ships". The largest treasure ship is 44 zhang 4 feet long, 18 zhang wide, and has a carrying capacity of 800 tons. With a capacity of more than a thousand people, it was the largest ship in the world at the time.

The second type is called "horse boats". The length of the horse is thirty-seven zhang and the width is fifteen zhang. The third type is called "grain ships". It is twenty-eight zhang long and twelve zhang wide. The fourth type is called "sitting on a boat", which is 24 zhang long and 9 zhang 4 feet wide. The fifth type is called "war ship", which is 18 zhang long and 6 zhang 8 feet wide.

It can be seen that some of the ships of the fleet led by Zheng He were used for carrying cargo, some for transporting grain, some for warfare, and some for residence. The division of labor is meticulous and there are many types. We can say that Zheng He's fleet was a large-scale fleet consisting of treasure ships as the main body and auxiliary ships.

In comparison with today's data, the treasure ship should have been the largest sea ship in the world at that time, which is equivalent to the current length of 151.18 meters and the width of 61.6 meters. The ship has four layers, the 9 masts on the ship can hang 12 sails, the anchor weight is several thousand catties, it takes 200 people to set sail, and a ship can accommodate 1,000 people.

This kind of ship that can only appear in modern times has been built in the early Ming Dynasty, which is a bit incredible to think about, and it is precisely because of this that some people think that treasure ships do not exist, and give various reasons.

Now, the Yongle Canon has been discovered, and if this information is found from it, this unsolved mystery can be solved.

Because of the appearance of the "Yongle Canon", the sensation caused is needless to say, if it weren't for the wrong time now, some old-timers would definitely come over to find out, even so, some of the old-timers who felt that they were physically tough, after learning the news, also rushed over.

Meng Zitao felt that at this time, it didn't matter if he was not there, he originally wanted to go back to rest, but he was stopped by Lu Wenle, not to mention anything else, showing his face in front of the old-timers is also very good for the increase in his popularity.

In the end, Meng Zitao still stayed, showed his face in front of the old-timers, and answered some questions, but fortunately, everyone's attention was on the "Yongle Canon", and Meng Zitao was not under much pressure.

After a busy day, Meng Zitao felt a little unbearable, at this time, the old-timers who should have seen him also met, and he didn't want to stay here, so he took a car to a hotel, took a shower, and slept a lot.

The next day, Meng Zitao was refreshed, he first contacted the director of the research institute, and the director told him that his senior brother Lu Wenle was only resting now, or because he couldn't support it, otherwise he would definitely not go back to sleep.

Later, Meng Zitao learned about the progress of opening the box, because the things in the box were too precious, so the progress was a little slow, and now in addition to the "Yongle Canon", some jewelry and other items were also found, all of which were extremely precious, and some of them had very high historical research value.

Overall, the contents of these boxes are of immeasurable value, and the rewards Mencius received for this are also amazing. However, Meng Zitao was not too excited about this, what he wanted most was a set of photocopies of the "Yongle Canon" for research, which I believe can be satisfied.

As for the originals of the "Yongle Canon", Meng Zitao is really not greedy, indeed, these originals are priceless, but if you collect them, it will cost a lot of money, and you have to worry about whether it will be damaged due to improper care, which is similar to a hot potato for him.

In addition, these originals of the Yongle Canon are so precious that the state will keep them carefully and will not be exhibited in any museum.

After chatting with the director for a while, Meng Zitao hung up the phone and went out, it was rare to come to the capital, he wanted to go to the association to verify his identity, this matter has been delayed for a long time, fortunately, there are no hard requirements in this regard, it doesn't matter, but if you don't deal with it when you come to the capital, it will be too unacceptable.

When he arrived at the office of the association, after Meng Zitao signed some documents, the staff said to Meng Zitao that the president had explained before, and when he came to report, he would talk to him and explain some things, but the president was on a business trip and would not come back until two or three days, so let Meng Zitao not leave Beijing in a hurry, and wait for the president to come back.

After agreeing, Meng Zitao asked the staff what tasks and benefits he had now, and the staff told him that everything would wait for the president to talk to him.

It seems that this is a routine procedure, Meng Zitao did not say much, and after asking himself if he was fine, he left.

"Where are we going next?"

Meng Zitao scratched his head a little, he didn't have any friends here in the capital, where should he go now?

"I haven't made some reserves for the antique shop during this time, so let's go to Panjiayuan. ”

Taxi came to Panjiayuan, because the time is not early, plus it is not a weekend, there is not much flow, and the current Panjiayuan is compared with the previous years, the probability of encountering good things has been greatly reduced, although the opportunity to pick up the leak is not nothing, but it is still difficult to pick up the big leak.

But Meng Zitao has special abilities and is young, and it is rare to haunt Panjiayuan, as long as there is a leak, he has some strategies, and he is basically able to catch it.

Speaking of this strategy, there is a jargon in Panjiayuan called "stretch". It is to be patient with the seller. However, this is the old yellow calendar, and now Panjiayuan can be doubled, if you see something good, you have to buy it immediately. As soon as it is "stretched", it may be "stretched" and lost. And the buyer and the seller still have to fight their wit. The seller is familiar with the psychology of the buyer when buying something, which can often make the buyer uncomfortable.

Of course, this is not very difficult for Meng Zitao, just like now, he used his ability to find a sack of books in the stall in front of him, among which there are several books of great value, but a sack of books, it is inconvenient to rummage, not to mention, even if he finds it, the probability of being found by the seller is also high, it is equivalent to a boiled duck flying.

Meng Zitao thought about it for a while, except for pulling the book out of the sack, he really couldn't think about it, but he couldn't do it, and he was very distressed in his heart.

At this time, he saw that there was a Wuyingdian Collector's Edition "The Chronicle of the Flowing Water" next to the sack, which was well preserved, so he wanted to buy it first, and slowly think about how to get the contents of the sack.

Meng Zitao inquired, and the seller said that the price of four volumes was 600 yuan.

Buying and selling, it's all like this, you have to pay back the money, so Meng Zitao counteroffered two hundred.

The seller showed a disdainful look: "Fifty yuan a book?" If you don't have money, don't buy it, it's like you don't have money. ”

Meng Zitao was unhappy when he heard it, what did he mean that he had no money, so he scolded the seller a few words.

Unexpectedly, this seller didn't know the temper problem, or he was in a bad mood, and he was a little anxious to come and go. The seller was angry and said, "If you can come up with a thousand dollars, I will sell you all this sack of books." ”

Meng Zitao was stunned for a moment, there is such a good thing, so what else is there to say, he directly took out a thousand yuan, carried a sack of books and left.
