However, if you look closely, you can see that what I thought was painted was actually the characteristics of the material itself, that is, it was not actually a metal product. This made Chu Chen and Zhao Qirui a little puzzled, what is this thing made of?

If you want to talk about jade or stone, it is too light. If you want to talk about wood, the weight is about the same, but this thing has not been painted or anything, and if it is made of wood, there will always be some texture on the surface, so this can only be ruled out.

"Hey, it's really weird, it's the first time I've seen this material, is this made of extraterrestrial meteorites?" Zhao Qirui took the box in his hand, felt it carefully, and then said with some surprise.

Seeing this, Chu Chen said: "We are not scientists, let's study what this thing does first, and then we will have the opportunity to study the materials used to make this thing later." ”

Zhao Qirui nodded, and then the two of them continued to look at the box.

This box is divided into two layers, the top lid and the bottom of the box body, it actually looks about the same height, Chu Chen gestured, maybe the box lid is higher, from this point of view, the two of them estimate that a box should have a special purpose.

Looking at the bottom of the box body, there are four small holes, and on the top of the box lid, there are many small holes, Chu Chen counted them carefully, and there are forty-nine.

Zhao Qirui looked at the box, frowned, and said, "How does this thing seem to be a smoker?" ”

Chu Chen looked at it, it was really a bit similar, but on second thought, there shouldn't have been a smoker of this shape in ancient times, right?

"I don't think it's called a smoker, it's almost the same as a smoker."

Zhao Qirui smiled and nodded, but then thought of a question, and said with a somewhat strange expression:

"Except that the materials used to make this thing may be a little strange, I don't see anything strange about it, you see, there is no ornamentation on this surface, even if it is a smoked box, there is nothing precious. Why did the owner want to hide it so secretly? That guy won't be looking for trouble, will he? ”

Chu Chen also thought of this just now, and he also felt very strange, to say that this thing is not precious, there is no need for that person to deliberately make a pen holder and hide the box inside, right? Is it really like Zhao Qirui said, this person is just a joke on his juniors?

After Chu Chen got up for a while, he said, "Brother Zhao, isn't this the box that hasn't been opened yet?" Maybe it's something out of the ordinary? ”

Since there was nothing unusual about the box, they could only hope for what was inside, so the two tried to open the lid of the box to see.

However, in the process of opening the lid, the two of them accidentally discovered the way the lid was opened, and it was actually screwed, which is not to say that the screw pattern used at the interface, but in the form of a bayonet bulb, such a design should make the box body and the lid fit tighter.

After the box was opened, the two of them were dumbfounded, they never expected that the thing inside was actually a small candle.

After getting such a result, Zhao Qirui couldn't help but show disappointment on his face, and then he patted Chu Chen's shoulder and comforted: "Xiao Chu, don't be disappointed, anyway, you have to get such a smoked box for nothing." ”

Chu Chen was not disappointed, originally this was a pen holder bought for 2,000 yuan, which was already worth the price, and he didn't believe that the ancients would be so boring, so he deliberately made a pen holder, and then put this box inside, and after a short observation, he also found three surprising places.

"Brother Zhao, do you see that the color of this candle is similar to milk?"

"Hey, really, is this candle really a treasure?" After Zhao Qirui took a closer look, he found that it really looked like the color of condensed milk.

"And Brother Zhao, did you find it, after opening the box, there was a faint fragrance in our car." Chu Chen made another discovery.

Zhao Qirui sniffed vigorously, and there was really a little, so he said curiously: "Really, is it emitted by this candle?" Let me smell it. ”

After speaking, Zhao Qirui was about to put the box in front of his nose, but was hurriedly stopped by Chu Chen.

"Brother Zhao, when you smell this unknown smell, it's best not to go up directly, in case the smell is poisonous, you will be hurt if you don't do it. We should wave our hands before smelling, so that we can smell the smell, and if it is poisonous, it will also minimize the impact. ”

"Xiao Chu, I didn't expect you to know so much."

Zhao Qirui followed the method taught by Chu Chen, and after smelling it, he said with some surprise: "It's really there, this fragrance smells very good, and after smelling it, it seems that my mind is clearer, it's really amazing." ”

Chu Chen nodded, his sense of smell was more sensitive than Zhao Qirui because of his ability, so not long after the box was opened, he smelled it.

"Brother Zhao, if this thing is really a smoked box, then there will be a candle in it, and there is another point, these holes in this lid are not straight, don't believe you to take a look."

Zhao Qirui took the lid and looked at it, it was really so, and he also blew on it, and found that the hole was indeed open, which made him feel very curious, how did the ancients do it, and what was it for, this question also made him feel a little strange.

Especially the question asked by Chu Chen, since it is not a smoked box, then Weishenme still has to be made like this? If it's a candlestick, can the light inside still shine out like this?

Thinking of this, Zhao Qirui proposed: "Xiao Chu, why don't we order it now?" ”

Chu Chen thought about it for a while, and said, "It's a little inconvenient in the car, let's wait a while, don't have anything unusual after ordering." ”

"That's also a reason, so let's go straight to your house." Zhao Qirui nodded in agreement.

Next, the two of them made some conjectures about the box, and then closed their eyes and recuperated.

Half an hour later, the three of them came to Chu Chen's house together.

After Zhao Qirui looked around, he said with a smile: "Xiao Chu, it seems that you are quite diligent, the room is well clean, and it doesn't look like a place for a single man to live at all." ”

"Hehe, it's nothing, it's just a habit." Chu Chen scratched his head, his habit of cleaning often was also forced out by Wu Ke, so he was a little embarrassed.

"Hehe, this habit is good, but Xiao Chu, you don't lack money, do you want to buy a house, if there is no suitable place, I can help you find it."

"Brother Zhao, this is no longer necessary, I have already asked an elder to help me pay attention."

"Well, if there's anything difficult, you can find me."

Zhao Qirui nodded, and then said a little impatiently: "Then let's start quickly, I can't wait." ”

Chu Chen smiled and nodded, then took out the box, opened it, and carefully lit the candle, but when he was about to close the lid again, a strange fragrance wafted out, and it filled the entire room in an instant.

As soon as this strange fragrance entered the nose, it was immediately like a thick breath that went straight to the heart, making all the troubles and anger swept away, and the whole person immediately became calm, and the mind was even clearer, and even some troubled thoughts in the heart seemed to reach a lot.

Zhao Qirui sniffed this strange fragrance vigorously, and was intoxicated for a long time before he sighed and said, "What is this fragrance?" It's really indescribable, it's amazing, even the top agarwood can't compare to this taste, as if you have entered a fairyland. ”

"Isn't it?!"

Zhao Qirui's words suddenly reminded Chu Chen of a legend, and he hurriedly covered the lid of the box.

Seeing this, Zhao Qirui said with some reproach: "Xiao Chu, if you cover it like this, can the candle still be lit, are you reluctant?" ”

Chu Chen didn't say much after hearing this, pointed to the box, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao, you can't look at it." ”

"Huh, how is that possible?"

It turned out that after the lid of the box was closed, the candle inside did not seem to be extinguished, and I don't know what was going on, the candlelight appeared brighter through the small holes that were not transparent. No, it may not be bright, but it looks a little bright.

What's even more surprising is that the candle smoke seems to be a faint red glow under the reflection of the candlelight, slowly rising and gathering, and then gradually forming a fairyland-like scenery.

The first thing that was formed was a sea of red clouds, and then an ethereal mountain peak began to slowly appear in the sea of clouds, and when the mountain peak appeared clearly in front of everyone, I saw that pavilions began to appear on the mountain peak.

This is not over, and then I actually saw that in the pavilions, there are several Taoists talking about the Tao, and with the change of candle smoke, the expressions on their faces seem to be constantly changing, as if they are really discussing there, which is really breathtaking.

And because of the flow of candle smoke, the sea of clouds in the picture is also constantly changing, and slowly surging, the sea of clouds, fairy mountains, pavilions, Taoists, combined together, it looks so beautiful, it really seems to be a fairyland.

As the candle smoke rose, the three people present were fascinated, as if they were already in it.

"What a miracle!" After staring at it for a long time, Zhao Qirui muttered: "Xiao Chu, what the hell is going on, how can there be such a strange scene, it is really a miracle!" ”

Chu Chen smiled, and said what he thought of before: "Brother Zhao, I also have some conjectures about this thing. ”

"According to legend, there was a princess Tongchang in the Tang Dynasty, and she was the most loved by Yizong Li Kui. In order to marry Princess Tongchang, Li Kai almost turned over the treasury of the Tang Dynasty and sent everything he could see into Princess Tongchang's new mansion. ”
