Chapter 449: The Golden Box

It is estimated that at some point in time, there was an experimental accident here, and some kind of solution that could dissolve the handwriting was sprinkled on a part of the stationery, causing the handwriting on it to disappear almost completely, and the traces of the paper being soaked were clearly visible on the most blurred letterheads.

In my opinion, the contents of these letters are really inherent, and it feels unbelievable.

The only thing that cares about me is the first letter and the last letter.

Monceau once mentioned that the reason why Guo Kan suddenly cut off contact with them back then was because Wu Lin had recruited him away, and looking at the content of the last letter, it could be regarded as a conscription letter.

In other words, these letters should have been written by Wu Lin.

At the beginning, when Master said that Wu Lin was very likely to be immortal, I felt a little ridiculous, not that I felt that my Master was, but I just felt that this matter was really incredible, and now when I see these letters, I have an awkward taste in my heart, from the first letter to the last letter, it spans a full hundred years, that is to say, Wu Lin has lived for at least a hundred years.

He must have been born before 1896, after all, no one could have been born to write letters.

And the time of his death must have been later than 1996, because judging from the content of the last letter, he certainly did not recruit Guo Kan to attend his funeral.

There are indeed some people in this world who live to be more than a hundred years old and can still read and write, but don't forget, as early as forty or fifty years ago, Wu Lin fought with my master and Qiao Sanye, and in the eyes of my master and Qiao Sanye, he was just a young man in his twenties.

This man, as if he never ages, is an eternal in the true sense of the word.

He is different from Lilith and Monceau, or the old wolf, who repeatedly borrows corpses to resurrect their souls in order to perpetuate their souls in a sense, while Lilith and Monceau both have corpse energy on them, and in a sense, they have become a new species that resembles humans and corpses.

But Wu Lin is different, when my master mentioned him, he didn't say that he had corpse qi on his body, this guy is a "person" who has gained eternal life.

It's, in my mind, this kind of thing is absolutely impossible.

Mortals have eternal life, and this is against the way of heaven!

Here I was looking at a few letters on the table, and I heard Lu Shengcai muttering: "I said that I always feel that I am a piece taller, and there are things under the bottom of the trouble for a long time." ”

As soon as he said that, I instinctively looked over to him.

When he looked over, Lu Shengcai was holding up a glassware with a wide bottom and a narrow mouth.

I don't know what the vessel is used for, after so many years, the liquid at the bottom has turned into a dark green adhesive film, and under this vessel, there is an index finger thick thing, and the surface of the thing is covered with a dark green handkerchief.

Because the color of the handkerchief is exactly the same as the color of the fluid at the bottom of the bottle, if you don't look closely, you really can't tell what's underneath.

Lu Shengcai put the utensils aside and carefully lifted the handkerchief.

As soon as the things under the handkerchief were revealed, Lu Shengcai's face suddenly turned shocked: ", gold!" ”

It was a very finely made golden round box, and I was a little far away, and I could only see some intricate patterns carved on the surface of the golden box, but I couldn't see exactly what was engraved.

Lu Shengcai is a thief, people like him are born with a special sensitivity to precious metals, he said that if the thing is gold, then it must be gold.

Seeing that Lu Shengcai had already shown a greedy expression, I was afraid that he would be poisoned by gold again, so I rushed over with an arrow and quickly picked up the gold box.

Lu Shengcai watched the gold flash out of front of his eyes, and his face was stunned, but soon, anger erupted in his heart: "Why are you, your hands are so fast, you want to take it privately!" ”

I waved my hand and motioned for him to stop talking, and then took a closer look at the lines on the box.

This should be what Guo Kan left to Monceau's master and servant, on this floor, except for those strange letters and this box, we really can't find any other objects of research value, anyway, I think, those letters are definitely not left for Monceau.

The box was carved with seven strangely shaped creatures, the body outline of this thing was very human-like, it was also an upright torso with slender legs and arms, but there was a pair of wings with a particularly strange shape behind it, how to say, it was as if there were two rags hanging behind them, but the skeletal structure of the wings could be clearly seen, and the faces of these things were very long, like horse faces, but all of them had no facial features, and on the top of their heads, there were a bunch of very short horns.

The creatures are so weird that it's hard to depict them in detail, but they're not just weirdly shaped, they're also carved with seven different spots, and at first glance they look like they're wearing blobald clothes and pants.

I couldn't see the door for a long time, when Monceau came over, and he stretched out his hand twice to take the gold box, but because his hand trembled so much, it was impossible to hold the box steadily, and in desperation, he could only look at me, and then raised his chin at the box, and motioned for me to open the box and take a look.

I asked him, "What's engraved on this?" ”

Monceau really knew: "The Seven Demon Messengers represent the seven evil forces in the world. ”

"Haven't you heard of them, but they're in some mythological system?"

"None of the mythological systems belong to, they are the embodiment of the seven different space forces, I don't know how to explain the specifics, but I heard the master mention it twice."

"Is this your master's thing?" I flipped the gold box in my hand and asked.

Monceau shook his head: "Probably not, can you open it and take a look?" ”

The latter sentence has already turned into an urging tone, I handed the box to Lu Shengcai and asked him to open it.

Lu Shengcai has a lot of experience in dealing with these gadgets, and it is more reliable for him to handle the matter of opening the box.

He was holding the gold box, his eyes shining, and he wanted to kiss it, so that I had to remind him, "Get down to business." ”

Lu Shengcai took out the door pin from his pocket and carefully picked the miniature lock on the box.

Just listen to the "click" sound, the lock cylinder snapped, and the lid was gently bounced open a very thin gap.

Lu Shengcai first quickly lifted the lid of the box with a slit the width of a little finger, and then quickly closed the lid, he should be afraid that there was a mechanism in the box, and after leaving it for a while, seeing that there was no other movement in the box, Lu Shengcai slowly lifted the lid as a whole.

Unexpectedly, the box was empty!

On the inside of the box, evenly brushed with black ink paint, when the box mouth is completely presented in front of me, I feel that the inside of the box seems to be a bottomless infinite space, looking at the black in the box, there is a strange sense of falling, as if the whole person is going to be sucked in.

I subconsciously reached out and touched the box a few times, only to determine that the depth of the whole box was indeed about the thickness of my index finger.
