Chapter 33: Thousand Machine Locks, Ice Dragon Needles
The old man then handed the wooden box to Qin Mu and said with a smile: "Young man...... Seeing you, the old man finally sees the hope of the ancient inheritance of the Chinese nation in today's era, and hopes that this set of silver needles in your hands can shine as it deserves! ”
Qin Mu took the wooden box with a solemn expression, and said with a straight face: "Seniors, please rest assured, the juniors will borrow it for a few days, and they will definitely return to Zhao!" ”
The old Chinese medicine doctor shook his head and smiled: "No need, although this set of silver needles is something that has been passed down from generation to generation by my ancestors, it has been sealed in the dust for too long, and I am old, I don't know when I will leave, although there are descendants, but they have no interest in Chinese medicine, and they do not deserve to have this holy relic!" ”
"Senior ......" Qin Mu really didn't expect that the other party would give him this set of silver needles, and he didn't want to possess it at all, after all, this is something that countless people on the other party are guarding.
The old Chinese medicine doctor waved his hand and said, "Okay, the old man also thought about passing on this holy relic from generation to generation, but they disappointed me too much, and when I met you today, I finally met someone who was destined, and it was also a wish of the old man!" ”
"You don't have to be presumptuous, the old man understands that there are many strange people in the world, but the old man dares to say that no one is more suitable to get it than you!"
"Senior, we just met, and you ...... such a valuable thing"
Before Qin Mu could finish speaking, the old Chinese medicine doctor interrupted him and said, "The old man has lived for most of his life, and he can still see the good guys and the bad guys!" ”
"However, you have to promise the old man one thing!"
"Senior, please?"
"I hope you can pass it on, but it must not fall into inhuman hands!"
Qin Mu understood what the old Chinese medicine doctor meant by inhuman, which not only meant people with bad intentions, but also people who did not understand Chinese medicine skills!
The old Chinese medicine doctor smiled, then took a golden key from his neck that was pierced by a red rope and handed it to Qin Mu.
"I hope it can bloom in your hands!"
"The juniors will never let the seniors down!"
"Huh...... Go back, there are still people waiting for you to save your life! ”
Qin Mu bowed and said, "I'll see you another day!" With that, he turned and left.
Director Zhao and Dr. Hua also bowed to the old Chinese medicine doctor and did not speak, but this salute already showed their respect for this old man.
Looking at Qin Mu in the distance, the old Chinese medicine doctor smiled again: "Find a good owner for it, presumably people will be pleased to see it first!" ”
On the way back, Qin Mu didn't speak, his expression was unusually solemn, the old man could give such a valuable thing to a person he met for the first time, on the one hand, it can be said that he values himself, but on the other hand, he is disappointed in the inheritance of ancient medicine and his descendants today.
Half an hour later, the group returned to the military compound, and after coming to the living room, Qin Mu put the wooden box in his hand on the table and took out the small and delicate golden key.
In the solemn gaze of everyone, Qin Mu slowly inserted the key into the keyhole at the top of the wooden box, and then, there was a clicking sound in the wooden box.
In the blink of an eye, gaps appeared around the entire wooden box, like a net, and some of the wooden blocks in the grid were rising, some were sinking, and even changing positions rapidly.
"This ......"
Everyone was shocked, they never thought that such a wooden box would have such an amazing mechanism setting, and the rapid transformation of the grids made it impossible to see a reason at all.
Qin Mu couldn't help but exclaim: "Thousand machine locks!" ”
"What? This is the legendary thousand-machine lock that no one can forcibly open? Dr. Hua was shocked.
"That's right, a thousand machine lock, the lock and the box are one, also known as the thousand machine box, the reason why it has the name of a thousand machines, is because it is varied, not only can change the shape of the box itself, but also the way to open it every time is completely different, there is no law at all, if there is no key, no one can open it, if it is forced, it will only destroy the things in the box!"
"The thousand machine lock only appeared once in ancient times, but it was a flash in the pan, and no one has seen it since, I thought it was just a legend, but I didn't expect it to really exist!"
In the shocked eyes of several people, the wooden box, which was originally integrated, gradually stretched into a one-foot-long, half-foot-wide wooden board, and a strong cold air spread instantly.
In the center of this plank was a roll of animal skins, but the age was so old that the origin of the animal skins could no longer be seen, and this strong cold air came from the animal skins.
Qin Mu took a deep breath and slowly stretched out his hand to grasp the animal skin, his movements were very slow and heavy.
It seemed that after a long time, Qin Mu's right hand couldn't help but tremble the moment it touched the animal skin, even though he had already been mentally prepared, he was still shocked by this cold air.
But he didn't let go, and after taking out the animal skin, on the wooden board under the animal skin, a beautifully carved Tai Chi Bagua pattern was revealed.
Qin Mu just glanced at it, then placed the roll of animal skin next to the Thousand Machine Box and slowly opened it.
It was a needle bag made of animal skin, spread out two feet long, and neatly placed on it were beautifully carved silver needles.
These silver needles are iron-gray in color, and the tips of the needles are inserted into the hides, revealing only the position of the handles, and the handles of these silver needles are perfectly carved dragons.
There are one hundred and eight silver needles, and the posture of the little dragon on the handle of each silver needle needle is different, but each one is vivid and lifelike, as if one hundred and eight dragons are moving around, playing and playing.
At one end of the animal skin, there are also a few words written like flowing clouds - ice dragon needle, saving the dead and helping the wounded.
The animal skin was opened, and the cold air in the living room rose again, especially on Qin Mu, who was the closest, and there was a thin hoarfrost.
"The ice dragon needle made of thousand-year-old cold iron, I didn't expect that I would have the honor to see it with my own eyes, old man!"
Hearing Dr. Hua's admiration, Director Zhao also sighed lightly: "Not to mention the value of the thousand-year-old cold iron itself, it is the exquisite carving of this silver needle, and it is also priceless, and it is definitely a treasure of the country!" ”
"If the news of the existence of this set of ice dragon needles spreads, I am afraid that the inheritors of traditional Chinese medicine from all over the world will flock to see its style!"
Qin Mu muttered: "Ice Dragon Needle - Save the life and help the wounded, this wish is this ring, Qin Mu remember, never dare to forget!" ”
His voice was soft, but it was also heard clearly by the others, and Dr. Hua and Director Zhao immediately showed a trace of shame on their faces, and silently took a step back.
Their first thought when they saw the Ice Dragon Needle was to admire its style and value, while Qin Mu saw the meaning behind it, which was the simple four words - saving lives and helping the wounded.
If they regard the Ice Dragon Needle as an important weapon of the country, then Qin Mu regards it as the spiritual foundation of the inheritance of national arts.
Qin Mu brought a coffee table and put it in front of the sofa where Xiao Tingting was, and placed the ice dragon needles on it, and then, he moved quickly with both hands and took out the silver needles on Xiao Tingting's body one by one.
The silver needle was taken out, and Xiao Tingting's little face immediately showed a look of pain, and her whole body began to flush rapidly again.
Qin Mu didn't dare to slack off, quickly took out the ice dragon needle, and stabbed it into Xiao Tingting's body without hesitation.
Previously, Qin Mu used one hundred and eight silver needles in order to suppress the strong medicinal power in Xiao Tingting's body, but this time, he only used eight ice dragon needles.
Eight ice dragon needles entered the body, and eight white lines suddenly appeared on Xiao Tingting's body, spreading all over her body, and exuding a powerful cold aura, as if she was no longer a person, but a piece of cold ice.
Seeing this scene, Dongfang Xue and Lingo Monkey all changed color, just because these eight white lines are the eight veins of the human body.
Qin Mu didn't apply the needle again, but took a deep breath, and hot air instantly floated out of his hands, and suddenly moved, slapping on Xiao Tingting's body rapidly.
With each slap, the eight white lines on Xiao Tingting's body will fade by one point, and the cold air emitted from her body will also be weakened by one point.
In the living room at this time, only Qin Mu was still moving, and the rest of the people were all looking motionless, and everyone's expressions were extremely solemn.
It took more than ten minutes for Xiao Tingting's body to fully return to normal, and Qin Mu also stopped slapping and quickly took out the eight ice dragon needles.
"Qin Mu, how is she?" Director Zhao asked impatiently.
At this time, Qin Mu's face was a little pale, and his face was tired, but when he saw Director Zhao's expectant gaze, he still smiled slightly: "Don't worry, I have suppressed the medicinal power in her body, and I will apply the needle once a day in the future, and after ten days, I will be cured!" ”
"Thank you......"
Qin Mu smiled, and reinserted the eight ice dragon needles into the animal skin, rolled them up, and put them on the gossip group of the thousand machine box again, and in an instant, the thousand machine box like a wooden board made a clicking sound, and the grid appeared again, and quickly changed, under the gaze of everyone, it turned into a mahogany box again, exactly the same as the beginning, and the cold in the room gradually dissipated.
At this time, Xiao Tingting, who had been unconscious, also suddenly let out a sigh, and slowly opened her eyes, which were pure and flawless, and revealed cunning and agile eyes.
Director Zhao's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly came to Xiao Tingting, and said urgently: "Girl, how do you feel?" ”
Xiao Tingting glanced at the old man with slightly red eyes, but there was a trace of doubt on her little face, and said, "It's okay, I slept well, what's wrong with you, grandpa, are you fascinated, I'll blow it for you!" ”
"Haha...... It's okay! Director Zhao looked at his granddaughter, who was no different from usual, and suddenly let out a hearty laugh.
Xiao Tingting glanced at him suspiciously, then turned her gaze to the others, and when she saw Dongfang Xue, she was suddenly surprised: "Sister Xue, why are you here, I usually want you to play with me, you don't have time!" ”
Dongfang Xue's cold jade face also showed a hint of a smile, and said, "Didn't my sister miss you!" ”
