Chapter 61: The Ancient Lock
It is rumored that there is a top tomb robber who can identify the location of the grave under his feet on a rainy night, when the lightning and thunder are roaring, but it is just a rumor, like Li Si, who has the ability to defy the wind and the sky, of course, it is also a rumor.
But when it comes to tomb robbing, the three people present are inexperienced, and Gao Jun has never thought of doing this; Although the are not small, they do not dare to come to such a place; Not to mention Li Si, at this time, he was completely stubborn, and his mind kept saying: "There must be treasures below, and there must be no danger." ”
Temporarily hugging the Buddha's feet, you have to see if you hold the big Buddha, how can you stop it when luck comes, no luck, you can't ask for it.
"Master, do you still want to dig?" The stood in the pit, and he couldn't stand it anymore, saying that it took a day to build a well a few meters deep on the construction site, and it would take two people to work together, and he was now working for two hours, and he could work on the construction site for a day, tired.
Li Si was also about to collapse, there was still a stone slab underneath, if he hadn't heard that it was empty underneath, he would definitely think that there was a whole boulder underneath, but the information he heard in his ears, the gang over there was still digging.
"Dig it, you come up, change me!" Gao Jun originally disagreed, but now he supports digging down.
When the was pulled up, Gao Jun went down to the pit, and Li Si and the two of them were on it, and they dug it in the south direction, which would only be a hole in the side below, and the soil on it didn't matter, just dig out the stone slab surface to see if there was an entrance to go down.
Li Siwu's previous plan was that he would soon be able to go down to the cave, and then leave the to guard it, and Gao Jun and him went down to take the stolen goods and left. The situation is completely different now, and I am stumped just by digging a pit.
Another half hour had passed, and it was already three o'clock in the morning, and it would be dawn in three and a half hours.
"Huh!" Gao Jun shoveled down, and sparks were shoveled.
"There's something!" The was overjoyed, thinking he had dug up a treasure.
Li Si didn't think so, because he hadn't gone down to the cave yet, even if there was a treasure, it should be below, how could it be dug out as soon as he dug it.
", clean it up." Gao Jun stepped aside, he also thought it was not that simple.
The's physical strength was restored again, and even the digging and planing were quickly cleaned up, Li Si's ears moved a few times, and he suddenly pulled Gao Jun and whispered: "Uncle, I also dug up an iron plate over there just now." ”
"So coincidentally?" Gao Jun was stunned, just now Li Si talked about the situation over there one after another, and he was doing the same thing with them.
Originally, they thought that they could dig both stone slabs and iron plates on their side, and Li Si could be sure that there was a cave underneath, so they should have dug the right place. But I didn't expect the situation to be the same on the other side of the island.
"Master, come and see what this is." shouted from below.
When Gao Jun looked at it, he couldn't help but be surprised: "Is this a lock?" ”
Li Si's ears moved, "It's the lock, and I found it over there." ”
But see along the stone surface past, about two square meters of iron surface, rusty on it, but with the stone surface of the tight seam, has been tried, I don't know how thick the road is, not to mention that there is no equipment now, there is, to cut, it is also very troublesome, this place is probably only with oxygen acetylene mixed burning, with high temperature to blow the iron surface part into molten iron, and not necessarily successful.
The iron surface part should be made of molten iron, and now when it is cleaned up, you can clearly see a keyhole-like thing, which appears after pulling a small iron plate, and the keyhole is green, which is the appearance of being corroded by the years, and it should have copper components.
"How deep is it down there?" Gao Jun asked.
Li Si knocked on the iron surface with a shovel, listened for a moment, and replied uncertainly: "About two or three meters, the iron plate will probably be so thick." The stone is a single piece, and it is one with the island. ”
"So now you can either open the lock, or you can turn around and go back?" Gao Jun's face was not very good-looking. It is true that he was a thief when he was a teenager, but his craftsmanship has become rusty, and it is no problem to open ordinary locks, but he is really not sure that he knows that the pit lock is extremely complicated at a glance.
——————
On the other side, Chen Wu also frowned and said, "Two big brothers, old man, this is not easy to open. You see, this is a copper keyhole, the structure of the key is different from now, I tried it with wire, the keyhole is more than half a meter long, I have been doing it for so many years, or the first time I have seen this kind of lock. ”
"Don't worry, I have a picture here, after you read it, you should know how to unlock it." Li Nanguang said incomprehensibly, he spent more than two years looking for this place, how could he not be prepared, the appearance of the ancient lock also confirmed that he was not looking for the wrong place.
"I'll take a look!" Chen Wu took the picture and took it with a flashlight, his brows furrowed even deeper.
At this time, Li Si was so anxious that he couldn't do it, because he could only hear the sound, but he couldn't see the drawings, and now, he guessed that there were indeed two identical places on the island, which were built artificially in the past, and the direction was just opposite. It is very likely that one of them is true and the other is false, Li Si is convinced that the one he is looking for is true, because the following is empty.
But the way to get in should be the same, and finally Chen Wu spoke again: "I'll try, if I can't do it, I can't find anyone who can open this lock in this area." ”
Although Chen Wu is a habitual thief, his lock-picking skills are indeed very powerful, and even the safest double-row tooth door lock on the market is now able to be stabbed open in less than ten seconds.
The Zhang brothers found Chen Wu, it was indeed just a coincidence, and another person was originally arranged, but there was an accident in the middle, so they temporarily found a local.
Gao Jun also tried it with wire, and the vertical keyhole was about two feet long, and the ordinary keyhole was only two inches long, which was more than ten times the difference. Forge the key, it's almost like a broadsword from the Warring States period, with lock teeth on both sides, and I don't know how many lock points there are. Coupled with the corrosion of the years, there may be a failure, and even if you take out the original key to poke it now, you may not be able to poke it open.
"There's no way!" Gao Jun shook his head, gave up after a few attempts, and it was impossible to poke it normally.
The was anxious, "Master, or, I'll go out and get some tools now." If we go now, tomorrow others will definitely find out that the earth has been moved here, and if someone gets rid of it first, then we are not busy in vain, maybe there is a treasure below. ”
"It's too late, if we don't invite professional workers, even if we get tools, we can't get them ourselves." Gao Jun was also a little depressed, he came with an injury, and he was busy working for most of the night, so it was not worth it.
Li Si's eyes suddenly lit up, and he blurted out, "Master, let's wait first." ”
"Okay!" Gao Jun nodded, Li Si has a tailwind, maybe he can hear useful information, the situation over there is similar, as long as they can poke it open, then they have a chance here, there are still more than three hours before dawn, everything is possible.
Now, he is really interested in the following things, this lock alone is not simple, it is definitely a vintage thing.
