Five hundred and twenty-one chapters
The snow drifted all night, and it was only in the early hours of the morning that the sky began to clear up.
Kang Ran had been sitting at his desk looking at the brocade box on the table, and he had been leaning back in his chair and meditating all night.
Can the impermanence of the world be explained by the vague beginning that fate gave him a vague beginning a thousand years ago and a clear end a thousand years later?
Kang Qi brought in hot tea and asked softly, "Sir, it's time for breakfast...".
"Hmm... How is Senior Brother Xiang? Kang Ran sighed and asked, how could he be in the mood to eat?
"It's just a few bruises, it's fine..."Kang Qi tried to ask again, "Senior Brother Xiang asked you, do you want to open this brocade box?" He said it had what you were looking for! ”。
"No, you can't open it..."Kang Ran motioned for Kang Qi to retreat, according to the news revealed by Yin Yue, it was Lin Sen who found this brocade box in the underground palace, but he couldn't open it after exhausting all means.
I was afraid that this rare treasure would fall into the hands of others, so I tried my best to set up suspicions step by step, and made so many sets of boxes to lead the treasure astray from the real and false ones.
If you are unlucky, you will encounter a super master like Kang Ran, who is unmatched in terms of talent, wisdom and agility, and can crack all his traps, you will also lose at the last step and will inevitably be killed or injured.
But Conron's wisdom and acumen were obviously beyond his imagination, and in the end, not only did he have zero casualties, but he also successfully got back what he wanted.
Fate often makes such unacceptable jokes, I don't know what Lin Sen will think after knowing the news.
Kang Ran's gaze fell back on the brocade box, the dragon-patterned sandalwood box dug up before was already priceless, but it was still slightly inferior to this brocade box, because the configuration of this box, which was only half the size of a laptop, was more noble and luxurious.
There are things he has been looking for in this life but don't know where to find them, and now that he has found them, he is not in a hurry to open them.
Those past memories, the memories he is willing to remember and have been running away, right and wrong, love and hatred, every scene flashed clearly in front of his eyes.
He once thought that when he buried this thing, those memories and the past would also be hidden deeply, turning into clouds and dust from another world, drowning in the long river of history.
But today, thousands of years later, he still has to tear apart the old past that has been sealed for too long with his own hands, to face everything, he is not afraid to bear and face, but feels ridiculous, laughing at his ignorance and powerlessness.
Because the so-called truth that I saw after clearing all the fog is really ridiculous.
Kang Qi had been waiting in the corridor outside, he was afraid that no one would listen to his husband's orders.
Kang Xiaodie is about to give birth to a baby and has gone to the hospital to give birth, Kang Rong has betrayed Kang's and is now missing.
There is no one waiting by Mr.'s side for the time being, and Kang Qi temporarily made up a number to stay by Kang Ran's side to wait for Mr.'s diet and daily life, although Kang Ran actually didn't use him to wait, but this loyalty is still worthy of recognition.
Xiang Guang saw that there had been no movement in the study, and he was also curious to come and have a look, in terms of his professional habits, it was not true to come across such a mysterious and priceless antiquity in a hundred years, and it was unrealistic to say that he was not interested in seeing it.
However, the gentleman did not tell them to ask more, so they could only wait for the cold wind to blow in the corridor outside, but fortunately the snow had stopped, at least it was not a miserable situation of being blown by the wind and snow.
Kang Ran also knew their thoughts very well, and it took a lot of trouble and a lifetime to solve all the troubles, and this thing was not meaningless to them.
At the very least, they should know what exactly is hidden in the box and who is its real owner.
"Come in!" Now that the hour has come, there is no choice for him, whether he wants it or not.
Kang Ran is not a person on the road, and he will not open a lock with too complex internal structure, at this time, he didn't move when he looked at the luxurious and abnormal brocade box, Kang Qi and Xiang Guang were both masters of the road, and they just stood on the sidelines and watched, because they didn't see where the lock was at all.
The brocade box had been locked up for nearly a thousand years, and had never been opened by anyone except its original true owner.
This is enough to say that the lock on this box is also an unprecedented superb, and they also want to see and open their eyes, but there is no lock on that box at all.
Because you can't see the real thing like a 'lock', if it is a high-tech touch fingerprint lock, and the technology that was not so developed thousands of years ago, it is impossible to do it.
"Sir, can you let your subordinates take a look?" Kang Qi wants to get closer and study it in his hand, and he has to try to solve a problem when he encounters it, right?
"Stand back!" Kang Ran's fingers flicked the lid of the box, motioning for them to move away.
It can't be the risk of explosion again, right?
Kang Qi couldn't help but ask again, "Sir, you... Will it work? ”。
Kang Ran sighed lightly and shook his head, Xiang Guang retreated to the window very interestingly, and Kang Qi had to follow, sometimes talking too much is really annoying.
There is no lock on the lid of the brocade box, and there are five gold-inlaid flying dragons carved with the dragon body coiled on the wall of the top of the box in turn, and the dragon's eyes are inlaid with round and translucent beads.
The weather after the snow was exceptionally clear, and the sun shone through the window on the brocade box of the desk, and the dragon seemed to be swimming up and down.
The beads in the dragon's eye reflected the rising sun, flashing a halo of five-colored glass, and there seemed to be a slight dragon groan between the flickering lights.
"God!" Kang Qigang secretly snorted, and Kang Ran's hands flicked on the swimming dragon pattern.
A low and gentle music crossed, and the melodious rhyme of 'Cheng Cheng' scattered out like flowing water, and the five glass beads in the dragon's eye slowly rotated in different directions with the ups and downs of the music, and there was no 'lock' setting on this brocade box.
But it opens in a way that no high-level KitKat lock can match.
No one would have thought that they would use such a method to hide the secret, let alone use such a means to crack the secret, so the only person who could make this secret known to the world was the original designer himself.
At the end of the song, the lid pops up.
In an instant, the golden light was in full bloom, and the study was covered by a dazzling glass light, and the gold was shining, like Mount Meru.
"It turns out... Is it really you? Xiang Guang raised his hand to cover the dazzling light, and sighed to himself.
Kang Qi turned his head to look at Xiang Guang in surprise, and asked in a low voice, "Senior Brother Xiang knows this baby?" What is it? ”。
Xiang Guangwei shook his head and motioned for Kang Qi not to ask more, Mr. Kang at this time could not be disturbed.
Kang Ran stroked the brocade box with his hand and sighed lightly, "I... It's back! You... Or wait until I come back to you...".
The golden light in the brocade box shone rapidly a few times, gradually condensed into a wisp of golden silk, and then circled up along Kang Ran's arm, and after a few entanglements, it soon disappeared as if it had disappeared into his body.
The window suddenly 'snapped', something broke through the glass window and buckled directly on the brocade box in front of the desk, Kang Ran took two steps back and avoided it sideways, and the thing grabbed the brocade box as flexibly as a finger and disappeared quickly.
Is this someone who dares to steal such an important treasure in front of Mr. Kang's eyes, is he crazy or impatient to find death?
This is completely not taking them into account, Kang Qi turned around and wanted to chase them out.
"It's okay, don't chase!" Kang Ran just smiled, an empty box, if you like it, give it to them.
"That's an antique, it's priceless!" Kang Qi was surprised, "Sir, are you really not chasing?"
Kang Ran shook his wrist lightly a few times, and only after sensing that the soft silk had merged with him did he ask, "Which one do you choose compared to your life?" ”。
"Oh? Be... Sir, your subordinates know..."Kang Qi took two steps back in embarrassment, it is true that the box is very valuable, but of course his own life is more important than those things outside his body.
"Golden Silk Thread!" Xiang Guang smiled and said to Kang Ran, "Congratulations to Master Ran, you have recovered this supreme holy relic!" ”。
Kang Ran has never expressed any joy, but at this time he still shook his head and sighed, "It's all a legend thousands of years ago, and now... As long as you can return a peaceful and prosperous era, nothing else matters! ”。
"Yes! Knowing Master's teachings, his subordinates will keep them in mind..."Xiang Guang bowed very respectfully, "Even if Mr. Ran has got his wish, if there are no other orders, his subordinates will return to the Lan clan to restore their lives...".
"It's okay, it's just that the matter is not over yet, senior brother has to be careful himself, thank you very much!" Kang Ran returned the salute very politely, since they have all been left in this world, there is no distinction between high and low between each other, and supporting each other to complete this journey is the most important thing to do.
