Chapter 166: The Eight-Sided Exquisite Box

Zhou Fan and the others were stunned when they looked at the bronze statue with a golden body, and everyone looked at the bronze statue sitting on the altar and was silent for a long time, and after a while, Zhou Fan reacted first, pulling Qianying and Qianyu back two or three meters before saying: "This bronze statue doesn't know how to move him beforehand." ”

After speaking, Zhou Fan signaled to Tianyou and a few people to distance themselves, and he stepped forward to carefully inspect the bronze statue by himself, and sure enough, Zhou Fan also found a small wooden box behind the bronze statue, the wooden box was made of rare golden silk nanmu, and the simple and mysterious box was held by Zhou Fan in his hand and looked at it again

Seeing this, Feng Long also stepped forward to take a look curiously, Tianyou Zimeng was not interested at all, after all, when it comes to history, only Zhou Fan and Feng Long understand, both of them are laymen, but the strange thing is that Qianying also stared at the wooden box and could see it.

"What did you find, you know these things?" Zhou Fan saw Qianying staring intently at the wooden box, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Can you show it to me?" Qianying didn't answer Zhou Fan directly, but asked Zhou Fan for the wooden box, Qianying's words just fell Zhou Fan didn't think about it and handed her the box in his hand, although they didn't know each other for a total of two days, but Zhou Fan knew in his heart that the two girls were people.

Although they must still have some secrets that they refuse to tell, Zhou Fan didn't ask them, after all, they can't threaten the four of them now, and Zhou Fan is even more reluctant to think that they are deliberately concealing it, probably because Zhou Fan is more emotional.

Just when Zhou Fan was still thinking nonsense, he saw Qianying hand the box back to him, but he didn't say anything, Zhou Fan took the box when he saw this, couldn't help frowning, and after staring at Qianying for a while, he found that she still looked down and didn't speak, so she simply didn't care about her, and asked Feng Long: "Can you see the mystery of this box?" ”

Zhou Fan handed the box to Feng Long again, at this time Tianyou and Zimeng couldn't help but be curious, and stepped forward to look at the box with Feng Long, although the two didn't understand history, but they looked at it very carefully, Feng Long looked at the box over and over again before saying: "This should be a Linglong box, but I don't know why it's like this?" Feng Long said as he handed the box back to Zhou Fan, shaking his head.

"It's indeed a delicate box, you know a lot." Zhou Fan glanced at Feng Long, who shook his head, and said: "The Linglong box is specially made, in ancient times, it was a box that only the royal family could use, and this box is even more special, if I guess correctly, it should be an eight-sided exquisite box." ”

"Eight-sided exquisite box..."When Qianyu heard this, she couldn't help but exclaim, but she also interrupted Zhou Fan's words, and several people turned their heads to look at her, Qianyu was also a little embarrassed and a little shy when she saw this, and whispered: "I saw this kind of box when my grandfather was eighty years old two years ago.

It was given to my grandfather as a congratulatory gift for his birthday, my grandfather regarded it as a treasure, usually don't say that he saw it, even my father wanted to look at my grandfather was not allowed, I was in the middle of the coming-of-age ceremony last year and my grandfather wanted to show me his baby, and my grandfather finally took it out to show me, but it didn't seem to be as beautiful as the box in front of me. ”

Speaking of this, Qianyu stopped, Zhou Fan and several people looked at her puzzled, Qianyu paused before saying: "That, I know so much, I asked my grandfather, what is the use of this box, and its origin, but grandpa didn't tell me, saying that the less you know about this thing, the better." ”

Feng Long glanced at Qianying and then at Qianyu, thinking about Qianyu's words in his heart, knowing that she hadn't deceived a few people, he didn't ask again, but set his eyes on Zhou Fan: "You guy should know something, don't hide it, hurry up and make it clear." Sure enough, Feng Long's voice fell, and several people stared at Zhou Fan again.

"Those who know me seal the dragon." And Zhou Fan smiled and gave Feng Long a thumbs up and said: "The Linglong box is exclusive to the Ming Dynasty, it is a box with a mechanism, this kind of box has a mechanism inside, but it is not to hurt people but to destroy the items inside.

In the past, the Ming Dynasty Linglong box was a secret thing for the royal family, and it would only be used for the imperial inheritance will or special secret order, and the scope of use of this box was not even known to the people at that time.

The eight-sided exquisite box is more special, the reason why it is called eight-sided is because each side of the box is carved with two strange beasts, one outside, one inside, the Linglong box used by the royal family for secret orders has only two layers, which is also called the dark box, that is, there is a box inside the box, and the exquisite box will not be opened or forcibly broken, and the mechanism inside will be triggered, completely destroying the items inside.

The special feature of the eight-sided exquisite box is that it is more complex than the ordinary exquisite box, there is a legend that the eight-sided exquisite box has a total of eighteen layers, each layer needs a different way to open, the legend that the exquisite box is placed in the elixir left by the immortals in the past, and it can soar in the day. ”

"I'm damned" Zimeng burst out after hearing this: "Damn, is it true, it's so exaggerated." ”

"I don't know if it's really fake, these are what I saw in the lonely book, and this thing was made by Wang Zanghai, the feng shui organ of the Ming Dynasty at that time, no one knows how to open this kind of box after the Ming Dynasty is lonely, and no one knows what is in it now, but one thing is that this thing is very valuable, and it can even be said that it has no price, only take it out for auction, and it is no problem to make one or two hundred million."

"Nope. It's not such an exaggeration, right?" heard Zhou Fan speak directly, that is, one or two hundred million Tianyou couldn't accept it.

"It's true, I've also heard my father mention that this thing is worth it if it has a price, and he wanted to buy this box from Grandpa Qianyu, but the old man refused, at that time my father seemed to have set a very high price, but it didn't impress the old man, and then the matter was over." Qianying was no longer staring at the box, and continued to react when she saw this.

"Rich, rich," Zimeng heard that one or two hundred million dollars had been repaid, and immediately looked like a wealth fan, staring at the wooden box and muttering to himself, he wanted to step forward and take the wooden box.

"Get out of your uncle's" But Zhou Fanna didn't know what he was thinking, and after scolding him, he handed the box in his hand to Feng Long and said: "You put this thing away, and we will study it well after we go back, and put you here safely, so as not to let this bastard worry about it." ”

Zhou Fan didn't look at Zimeng with contempt when he spoke, and Feng Long didn't say much, after carefully putting the box into the backpack, he stood aside, Zimeng could only stare at Zhou Fan and Feng Long with big eyes when he saw this, but in the end he was cowardly, he knew that it was impossible for him to sell the wooden box and without Zhou Fan's relationship, he couldn't find a seller even if he wanted to make a move, so he simply stood aside depressed and began to smoke.

Tianyou didn't pay much attention to the matter of the wooden box, in his opinion, he didn't need to think about these things, and now it's a question of whether they can go out or not, so he doesn't think about that, seeing that everyone is silent, he said: "Okay, now let's think about what to do." ”

Zhou Fan thought about it after hearing this, and then said to himself: "If it is laid out like this, there should be a way for the south passage to go up, but now this bronze statue has a golden body, why it is placed at this point makes him feel very puzzled." ”

"Hey, what do you care about him, since the passage to the south can go out, why don't you go to the south." Zimeng has always disliked Zhou Fan's character of being speechless, and after despising him, he walked towards the south.

Before he could reach the halfway point, he heard Zhou Fan shouting behind him: "Wait"

Zimeng looked back and saw that everyone didn't choose to join him, but they all stayed where they were, and the muscles on his face twitched, turned around and walked back, and when he returned to everyone, he found that several people were looking down at the ground.

Zimeng was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the ground and found that the broken pieces of the copper bell were densely engraved with words, these words should be engraved on the inside of the copper bell, and now the copper bell is broken, and the words inside are exposed.

Everyone stared at it for a while, and then they saw Tianyou and said, "I can't see why it happened, let's arrange the pieces separately." ”

Tianyou's words were also recognized by everyone, and immediately several people divided their labor to separate the pieces of bronze bells, and then rearranged them, and soon the inscription catalogue composed of fragments appeared in the field of vision of several people, Zhou Fan looked at the words and patterns on it and instantly had a clearer understanding of the ancient building, and also knew the origin of the bronze statue in front of him.
