Chapter 221 Reset Lock

"Longevity locks? Isn't that for the children who are born, for decoration, how can it be used on this door? "I'm a little puzzled, obviously Yun Ximing doesn't understand, when we were at a loss, Yun Xian came over.

"What's going on with you two again?" Yun Xian asked.

"There's a lock on the door, we can't break into the door when we come here for archaeology, right?" I reluctantly said, it is not difficult for me and Yun Ximing to pick the lock of the sliding door, most of the businesses engaged in by our two families have something to do with these Jianghu crafts, but they are still used on the door now, but it is useless to use it on such an ancient padlock.

Yun Ximing and I took turns trying for a long time, but we couldn't break this lock, and then I looked at the two corner doors next to it, and they also hung this kind of lock, no matter how Yun Ximing and I made trouble, we just couldn't open those weird locks.

"I just saw the main entrance, how did I encounter such a lock. I see, this time, we just need to bring back this lock of his, and it will be a sensation enough. Yun Ximing said.

"If you want to take the lock back, you have to be able to take it off first." I said with a bitter face.

"If it's a lock, I think I can help." Wen Qian walked to the front and said,

"You can pick the lock?" I asked in surprise, these guys brought by Yun Xian really have something unique about them.

"I won't pick the lock, but my brother will." Wen Qian said and walked back to greet Wen Wan, he walked to Wen Wan's side, and whispered a few words in Wen Wan's ear, Wen Wan nodded. Walked over. I finally discovered the special feature of Wenshan Wenwan, as if this Wenwan is like the shadow of Wenqian, along the way, only this Wenwan has not said a word, and I don't see him have any ability, I only remembered when I heard Wen Qian say this, and there is Wenwan this person.

Wen Wan walked to the door and began to study the locks on the doors, and Wen Qian followed suit, and Wen Wan shuttled back and forth between the main gate and the corner gate. Fiddling with those locks. Whispering a few words to Wen Qian from time to time, this Wen Wan is like a big girl, and her voice is very small, except for Wen Qian. No one could hear what Wen Wan said. Take advantage of Wen Wan's stall to study the door lock. Wen Qian began to tell us about the two brothers.

"When Wen Wan and I were born. Our mother died in childbirth, and we were born in a remote ravine. How remote is it? Even now, we don't have access to cars, and we have always relied on climbing mountains and mountains to communicate with the outside world. There are only three families in total, and the reason why we live in such a remote and difficult place is because our three ancestors were born in light body kung fu, and they were also famous in the rivers and lakes a long time ago. Wen Qian said.

"So many years and so many generations have passed, why don't you want to move out of this deep mountain?" Yun Ximing asked, he has always liked to listen to these things in the rivers and lakes, but at this time, the door was not locked, and he had nothing to do, so he inquired curiously.

"Our family lived in this remote area a few generations ago, but there were still some family funds, but our ancestors all had gambling problems, and gradually ruined the family foundation, and let us go for generations, it became a problem to live, let alone move." Wen Qian said.

"And how did you get out of there?" Yun Ximing asked.

"Wen Wan and I have been forced by our father to practice this kind of light kung fu since we were children, my mother died early, my father drank every day, and the wine at home was drunk, so we let the two of us go out to get it, I only then knew why he had to go to great lengths to teach us this kind of kung fu." Wen Qian said.

"Your father taught you kung fu so that you could steal wine for him?" I was surprised and asked, there is such a father in this world, it is really better than a beast.

"That's right, my father drank alcohol all year round, and his body couldn't practice light body kung fu for a long time, so he started training us. The food and use at home were all stolen by him, and once he drank wine, he accidentally said that he leaked his mouth, and it turned out that even his mother was..."

"He stole your mother too?" Yun Ximing asked.

"Yes, if you think about it, you can also know that we have only three families there, and they are all distant relatives of the same branch, so naturally they can't intermarry, and where did my father marry my mother." Wen Qian said.

"You said there are two other families there, are they like your father? Living off like this? I asked.

"I don't know, although our ancestors are the same ancestor, we have never interacted, and we each occupy a small hill in the ravine, and we have never walked around each other, and I don't know what the two families do." Wen Qian said.

"And then? How is your father? Yun Ximing asked.

"Dead." Wen Qian said lightly, "Once I went to help him steal wine, and when I came back, I saw that he was chasing Wen Wan out of anger, Wen Wan ran away, he got up to chase after him, fell down the valley, and fell to his death." Wen Qian said this without any tone, obviously full of disgust for his biological father.

"And then you left there with Wen Wan?" Yun Ximing asked.

"Yes, we left the valley and lived by stealing everywhere, and it wasn't until we became adults that Young Master Yunxian met us by chance, and someone took us in." Wen Qian said with a lot of emotion, I looked at him, and originally wanted to ask him what was going on with his eyes, but when the words came to his mouth, I swallowed them back and replaced them with other words.

"Wen Wan's lock, how is the research?" I asked.

"Although it may take a little time, with Wenwan's ability, there must be no problem. He has loved to study these things since he was a child, and these ancient locks are like good friends in his eyes. Wen Wan said.

"So what kind of lock is this lock? I think it's a child's longevity lock? Isn't it? Yun Ximing asked.

"Young Master of the Yun family, you don't know, there are many types of locks in our ancient times, which are roughly divided into two categories: reed structure locks and text combination locks. The structural lock made of copper reed uses the elastic force of the copper sheet to achieve the sealing and opening effect. Since the reed mechanism can be varied in a variety of ways, it is also possible to use the keyhole shape to determine the style of the key. After continuous improvement and development of dynasties, the style of the lock has exceeded 100 kinds, and the use of a variety of technologies such as secret doors, orientation, two openings, text passwords, etc., has increased the degree of secrecy of the lock. Such reed structure locks are divided into four types: wide locks, citi locks, torture locks and jewelry locks, most of which are horizontal locks, which are used for doors, cabinets, and boxes, and have been used until later generations. The kind we see is called a compound lock, that is, a compound lock, which attaches two kinds of locks together, which makes it more difficult to unlock, and such a lock is more complex than a single reed structure lock. Wen Qian said.

"What are the odds of that opening? After all, we entered this ancient tomb, and anything in it has the value of scientific research, so try not to destroy it if it can be destroyed. I said.

"Rest assured, we've never missed a beat." Wen Qian said.

"Ahem..."Wen Wan suddenly heard a coughing sound, obviously this is the code agreed between Wen Qian and Wen Wan, Wen Qian quickly got up and went to Wen Wan's side after hearing it, Wen Wan whispered a few words in Wen Qian's ear, Wen Qian nodded frequently after listening, and walked back after a while.

Wen Qian's baggage was placed in front of me and Yun Ximing just now, and it opened in front of us at this time, rummaging for something. On the other side, Uncle Lu had already begun to organize everyone to correct in situ, and Yun Ximing and I got up curiously to see what the Wen brothers had in their packages. Wen Qian didn't hide it either, and he wasn't worried about our visit. We looked at the package, and there was something strange about what it contained, all kinds of wire, hemp rope, paper clips, and bits and pieces, which didn't look like tools, but like a garbage bin.

"Wen Qian, you are in this baggage..."Yun Ximing questioned.

"Haha, the young master of the Yun family smiled, our tricks sometimes require a little special props, these things are still used to it." Wen Qian said and took out a thinnest iron wire and a pin, and walked towards Wen Wan. Although the thin wire looks inconspicuous, if you look closely, you will find that the wire is obviously often maintained, and it is very bright and polished, without a trace of rust.

Wen Qian handed the thing to Wen Wan, and Wen Wan knotted it, bent it a few times under his hand, bent the thin wire into a strange shape, and began to pick the lock. I saw that he carefully put the wire into the longevity lock, tinkered with it a few times, suddenly stopped, and muttered a few words to Wen Qian.

"Strange, how can this be..."Wen Qian muttered quietly.

"What's wrong? What happened? I asked.

Wen Wan said that this lock has been opened by others, and there are traces of disappearance, so he asked if he wanted to open it. Wen Qian said.

"Opened? But the construction of this ancient tomb has always been a successful seal, the padlocks used in the tomb are all newly made, and they are only used once in total, how can they be opened, sometimes the padlocks in some ancient tombs will not even design the corresponding key, so this ancient tomb has been entered before..."Yun Ximing looked at me suspiciously, and nodded without a trace.

"Master Kui, what do you think we should do?" Wen Qian asked.

"Open." I say.

Wen Wan's hands and feet over there were also very neat, three times and two times, he made a name for himself, only to hear the sound of "click", the longevity lock fell in response, and the door of the main house opened. The door hadn't been opened for an unknown amount of time, and it made a "creaking" sound that echoed throughout the hall, attracting everyone's attention. Everyone put down their things and came over, the door slowly opened, and it was pitch black inside, and then the cold light in the hall vaguely reflected a black figure.

In the main room of this ancient tomb, there is a person standing! (To be continued......)
