Plant the plane tree and attract the golden phoenix.

Thinking that the name of the original host was Wutong, Tang Mingyu had now basically confirmed that this was the place where the treasure map was buried.

So whether the treasure map is in the tree or in the soil under the tree, this needs to be judged by Tang Mingyu after observation.

Tang Mingyu walked quickly to the plane tree, and raised his eyes to look at the phoenix mouth on the Phoenix Cliff.

The position of this sycamore tree is exactly the direction in which the phoenix nods.

Tang Mingyu first observed the trunk of the sycamore tree, and after careful inspection, the sycamore tree did not have any traces of piercing.

It can be seen that the plane tree is not the place where the map is hidden.

Now all that remains is the land around the plane trees.

Unlike rock, soil is highly malleable and easily obliterated by wind and rain.

At least seven or eight years have passed, and it is not at all possible to tell on the face of it that it has been dug and what has not been dug up, unless it is analyzed using sophisticated modern instruments.

Fortunately, Tang Mingyu believes that the buried area should be very small, just under the plane tree, so the workload is very small, anyway, it can be dug around.

However, Tang Mingyu still hopes to observe first, although the traces are gone, there are still some differences between digging and not digging, such as the thickness of the accumulation of fallen leaves may be different.

Of course, if you have cleaned it before burying it, you can't say for sure.

So Tang Mingyu can only try his luck.

Unexpectedly, Tang Mingyu's luck turned out to be good, and she soon found that the thickness of the rotten leaves on the side of the plane tree near the Phoenix Cliff was obviously thinner, which also meant that it had been dug up here.

Tang Mingyu took out his waist knife and gently scraped away the dead branches and leaves and the rotten layer on it, revealing the slightly rancid sandy soil.

If it is buried in the soil, then it will definitely carry a box, and even if there is no box, there must be waterproof and anti-corrosion packaging.

If you have a protective layer, there is no need to worry about digging it up, Tang Mingyu silently used Xuangong, and under the swing of the waist knife, he saw sand and soil flying, and a pit was soon revealed on the ground.

Suddenly, the sound of the waist knife seemed to have hit a hard stone, and sparks splashed everywhere, which immediately made Tang Mingyu ecstatic, it seemed that her thinking was extremely correct, and she was about to get the treasure map.

Excited, Tang Mingyu bent down to take a closer look, and it turned out that what the waist knife had cut just now was the corner of a black box.

The box looked like it was made of metal, but it wasn't iron, it was probably some kind of alloy.

There is no doubt that in fact, the metallurgical technology of ancient times was very developed, and alloys could be used to create various metal objects.

Tang Mingyu slowly scraped away the sand around the metal box, and then a large black box appeared in front of her.

This feeling of suddenly discovering a huge treasure made Tang Mingyu excited, just like the archaeologists suddenly discovered the cultural relics of a certain dynasty.

Tang Mingyu went to hold the big box with both hands, and found that it was very heavy, and she didn't even pick it up when she hugged it.

Although the bottom of the box must be sticky with the soil, it will be aggravated, but Tang Mingyu is a martial arts master, and not picking it up at once shows that the metal density of this box is very high and the weight is very heavy.

Silent Xuangong, Tang Mingyujiao shouted, and then with both hands, she immediately lifted the big black box in the air.

When he moved it, Tang Mingyu weighed it and found that the box was really heavy, at least three or four hundred catties, which showed that the box was very thick and the metal was very valuable.

Putting the box aside, Tang Mingyu began to try to open it, and then she found one thing, that is, the joint parts of this box were very tight, and she didn't open it with all her might.

Could it be that the way it was opened was wrong?

Tang Mingyu hurriedly gave up and continued to exert more force, if the spring in the box was broken, it would be even more troublesome to open it again.

After carefully inspecting the surroundings of the box, Tang Mingyu found that there was a gap in the side of the box, and its shape was actually the same as the Nine Phoenix Jade Plate.

Tang Mingyu is a writer, and his brain turns fast, isn't it the Jiufeng jade card that is the key to open this box?

Tang Mingyu hurriedly took the Nine Phoenix Jade Plate off his neck, and then inserted the lower end into the gap in the box.

When I tried it this way, it was really like a key, and the size was just right.

However, Tang Mingyu also immediately found a problem, that is, the key didn't seem to be able to rotate, because it was long, and it was not a key-like lock cylinder, so she pressed it as much as she could, hoping to press the spring bracket inside, and then she could open the box smoothly.

Tang Mingyu pressed the jade plate to the end, but the scene of opening the box with a click in anticipation did not appear, the box was still motionless, and the box still could not be opened.

Is it too long, the spring lock cylinder is broken, or is it the wrong way to open it?

Tang Mingyu fell into deep thought.

Logically speaking, this metal box has been buried in the ground for many years and has not rusted at all, which shows that this box is very well done.

Since the box is so well done, there is no reason why the spring lock cylinder will not be done, Tang Mingyu feels that there is still an important link that has not been considered.

So what's missing?

Tang Mingyu began to pac back and forth under the plane tree in contemplation, and at this time the sun had gradually set, and the afterglow of the setting sun reflected the Phoenix Cliff in a fiery red.

This fiery red cliff like a red cloud made Tang Mingyu's mind flash, didn't he have to input the true qi of the red cloud?

Thinking of this, Tang Mingyu hurriedly grabbed one end of the Nine Phoenix Jade Plate, silently used the Nine Phoenix Devouring Heaven Technique, and entered the Red Cloud True Qi.

Tang Mingyu's Nine Phoenix Devouring Heaven Recipe itself was guided to success through the Red Cloud True Qi remaining in the Nine Phoenix Jade Plate, not to mention that her blood had infiltrated into it, which was equivalent to a bit of recognizing the Lord, after she entered the Red Cloud True Qi, the nine lifelike phoenixes on the Nine Phoenix Jade Plate suddenly emitted red light, as if they had come to life.

At the same time, there was a crunch of the iron box, as if some of the internal brackets had been opened.

Sure enough, when Tang Mingyu tried to open the box again, he easily opened the lid of the box.

When the lid was opened, Tang Mingyu was very excited and immediately looked inside the box.

I saw a strange black scroll in the box, and some exquisite ornaments were slightly revealed on the scroll, and its pattern was similar to that on the Nine Phoenix Jade Plate.

This aroused Tang Mingyu's great interest, and he hurriedly went to get the black scroll.

I thought it was a very light scroll, but Tang Mingyu didn't pick it up when he took it, and only after a little effort did he pick it up.

After picking it up, Tang Mingyu knew that this was not an ordinary scroll, but a very flexible alloy made of it.

Is this a treasure map?

When she opened the scroll excitedly, she found that it was not a scroll, but a broad-bladed long knife as thin as a cicada's wings, and the words "Nine Phoenix Chaoyang Knife" were engraved on the body of the knife.
