When Zhao Weiji handed the parchment in his hand to the old man, he clearly saw that the old man's face had changed greatly after reading what was written on the parchment.

"Where did you get this?" At this moment, the old man's hand holding the parchment had begun to tremble, and he did not speak too sharply.

"Right from where I just came out."

"Can you take me to see it, as long as you can take me to see it, I will promise you anything you want, even if you want my life."

Because the old man's tone of voice was very excited at this time, his tone increased, causing the surrounding crowd to stop all of a sudden, and then began to look in this direction.

Seeing that the people around him looked over again, this made Zhao Weiji a little embarrassed, so he hurriedly comforted the old man and said: "Don't get excited, I can promise to take you to see it, but you have to promise me not to reveal this secret to outsiders, and when you enter the secret room, you also have to obey my orders, if you can agree to these two requests, I will take you in." ”

These two requests were not a big deal for the old man who was very eager to enter the secret room now, so he agreed to Zhao Weiji's request without thinking about it.

So the group that had just walked out for a short time began to return again, only this time there was an old man in the group.

The group returned to the door they had just come out of, in order to avoid any extraneous branches, when all the people entered the door, Zhao Weiji reversed the mechanism that opened the door just now, so the door closed again.

When the group returned to the gold-filled chamber, they wondered what the old man wanted to see, and if it was the gold that was written on the parchment.

But Zhao Weiji felt that the old man should not have come to see the gold, if it was purely for the gold, the old man should not be so excited.

Sure enough, when the old man entered the room full of gold, he just muttered unconsciously: "This should be the place where the treasure was piled up by the old Kuth I, so where should that thing be?" ”

After Lao Zhang translated the old man's words to Zhao Weiji, Zhao Weiji knew where the treasure in this house came from, he had always been strange before, such a huge amount of treasure should not be able to accumulate such a large amount simply by robbing at sea.

At this moment, the old man gave the answer to this question, that is, most of the treasures in it should have been left by the old Kusi I, and it is estimated that only a small part was grabbed by the pirates.

While Zhao Weiji was still thinking about this question, the old man saw the three statues placed on the machine, and after he walked over to check it for a while, he asked Zhao Weiji.

"Has this statue been here all along?"

"No, this statue was originally buried in a treasure pile, and we only found the mechanism to open it when we came in."

"Organs? What kind of mechanism is it open? ”

"It's the door we came into this room, and the door over here." Zhao Weiji pointed to the two doors respectively.

"Doors? Are there any other mechanisms to be opened? ”

"It seems to be gone."

After hearing Zhao Weiji say this, the old man suddenly fell into deep thought, and kept muttering something in his mouth: "No, according to the parchment record, the mechanism opened by these three statues should be the mechanism of the library." ”

Just when the old man was still muttering something, he was suddenly startled, and then took out the parchment again and looked at it carefully a few more times, and asked Zhao Weiji again: "So what other mechanism did you activate before opening this mechanism?" ”

"Does the mechanism that opens that door from the outside count?"

"No, think about anything else?"

"Something else?" Zhao Weiji really couldn't think of any other mechanism, the only mechanism that opened when they came in was the mechanism of the door.

However, Zhao Weiji suddenly thought of something that might be a mechanism, that is, when they first came in, the pirate leader seemed to have pressed some mechanism in the kitchen stove.

"I remember, I think I pressed a trap in the house above this chamber before I entered it."

"That's it, can you go back and press that mechanism again?"

So Zhao Weiji found someone at random, told him the approximate location of the mechanism, and then asked him to press the mechanism.

Not long after the man left, I don't know if he pressed the mechanism, the stone door to the house began to close, and not only that, but the fence gate on the other side also began to close.

The occurrence of this phenomenon made everyone except the old man here start to get nervous.

But at this time, the old man spoke: "Don't be nervous, wait for the old man, I will naturally be able to find the switch to open the door, everyone don't be impatient." ”

Just as the old man's words fell, another mechanism was touched, and the platform where the tray was placed slowly began to descend, and then a downward stone staircase appeared in the position of the platform.

"This should be it, everyone go down with me." After the old man had finished speaking, he took the lead and walked down the steps.

After seeing that the old man began to walk down, Zhao Weiji and the others did not hesitate to follow immediately.

They had walked up the stairs for about two or three minutes, and when they had finished the staircase, the old man spoke again: "Be careful with your torches, for they must be very flammable." ”

With the old man's reminder, everyone began to carefully watch their torches, and then carefully began to illuminate the surroundings with their torches.

When the torches lit up the surroundings, all the contents of the chamber were displayed in front of the group, not treasures, but a large number of books made of parchment.

And at this time, after seeing these books, the old man's emotions began to get out of control, he first laughed, then cried, the two emotions were intertwined for a while, and finally stopped as the old man's physical strength decreased.

At this time, Zhao Weiji, who finally waited for the old man's mood to calm down, opened his mouth and asked: "Old man, now can you explain to us what these books are here?" ”

Because the alternation of the two emotions just now made the old man consume a lot of physical strength, so the old man couldn't stand at all at this moment, he hit the ground and gasped for a while before saying to Zhao Weiji: "The collection here is part of the collection of the Library of Alexandria. ”

After the old man said this, he began to gasp again.

But at this time, it was Zhao Weiji's turn to breathe, he never dreamed that these books were actually the collection of the legendary Library of Alexandria.

According to historians, the library of Alexandria was not burned by the Arabs, but was actually destroyed earlier, but this made Zhao Weiji even less hopeful of being able to see those books, because if they were destroyed earlier, it would be less likely to be preserved.

But I didn't expect that the old man in front of him at this time actually said that these books were part of the collection of the Library of Alexandria, which made Zhao Weiji unable to believe it.

"How can you be sure, old sir, that these books are in the library of Alexandria? As far as I know, the library of Alexandria must have been burned five hundred years ago. ”

At this time, the old man basically gasped for breath, and after he heard Zhao Weiji's words, he said: "I didn't expect that you, an Oriental, have a lot of knowledge, it is true that the collection of books in the Library of Alexandria was burned five hundred years ago, but that was only the majority, and a small part was rescued in time at that time.

Later, part of it was left to the Baghdad area, and King Quslao I obtained this part of the collection by chance after quelling the rebellion.

However, he did not bring the collection back to the Sassanid capital at that time, but secretly built a secret library to preserve this part of the collection.

It's just that the record of this incident in the history books is very rare, and I also consulted a lot of information before I learned about it.

And the parchment you gave me recorded the details of this incident, as well as the method of entering the secret room. So I think the collection here is probably the part of the Library of Alexandria that has been preserved. ”

After the old man finished speaking, he reluctantly stood up, and then took a torch from Zhao Weiji's hand, walked to a position and pulled a certain mechanism.

When the old man pulled the mechanism, he heard the sound of opening the door from above, and at this time the old man said to Zhao Weiji: "You can find someone to go up and take a look, the door that was closed just now should have been opened."

Zhao Weiji sent someone to check, but the result was that the door had really been opened.

At this time, Zhao Weiji completely figured out what was going on with these organs.

If the mechanism of the stove is opened, the door to the house can be opened, but at this time, the mechanism controlled by the statue can only open the other door.

If the mechanism of the stove is not opened, the mechanism of the statue will be able to open the door of the library.

The mechanism designed in this way can fully protect the secrecy of the library, because if the mechanism of the stove is not opened, there is no way to enter the secret room, because the door on the side of the wisdom city cannot be opened from the outside.

The people who designed these mechanisms took great pains to protect the books.

But now these books have been found, but what to do after they are found In fact, the old man and Zhao Weiji have not thought about it, but from the greedy eyes of the two of them looking at these books now, it seems that neither of them wants to give up these books.

So what exactly to do?
