Chapter 160: Open
I don't have the slightest experience in this aspect of decryption, the only thing I can do is to wait quietly for Qian Lao to solve the lines on the night pearl in front of him.
Time passed minute by minute, and it was obvious that the lines on it were not so easy to crack, and for more than two hours, Qian Lao was still studying the lines on it.
After more than two hours, I was already a little hungry, so I stepped into the kitchen, boiled a little hot water, and took out two bowls of instant noodles from the cabinet.
I don't know anything about cooking, and the only thing I can do is cook the noodles and mix them with mustard.
It stands to reason that Qian Lao is here today, so he shouldn't use instant noodles to entertain him.
But now that Qian Lao is studying the lines on the night pearl in front of him, he has entered a state of enchantment, and it is impossible to go out to eat.
These things are not visible on the coffee table, this room is not too big, if you look for takeout, it is easy to see the scene in the room.
So you can only use instant noodles to settle it.
Soon, two bowls of hot instant noodles were served on the coffee table.
"Old Qian, let's deal with it for the time being, I don't know how to cook, and these things on the table now are not convenient to call for takeout."
I said to Mr. Qian with some apologies, but Mr. Qian didn't raise his head, but his eyes were still staring at the night pearl in front of him.
"I'm not hungry, little brother Li, you can eat first."
Qian Lao said on the one hand, staring at the night pearl in front of him on the other side, and the whole person was in a state of fascination.
After I finished eating, Qian Lao still looked at the night pearl in front of him, I didn't know what he was thinking, but I could clearly see that there were obvious traces of thinking in Qian Lao's eyes.
I let out a long sigh, no wonder Qian Lao can have such a status in the circle, just because of the spirit of study and enchantment, I don't think ordinary people can have.
I really didn't know what to do, so I took out two more books from under the coffee table and read them little by little.
These books are all new products that I have found, all of them are some years old, and they are said to be biographies written by a famous person in the circle back then.
I only read the first half of this book, the content of the writing is very real, very immersive, the author of this book seems to not only have personal experience, but also have a deep writing
When I continued to watch, I was caught up in it and read it with some fascination.
Because I have experienced everything in the tomb myself, the content recorded in this book has a deep sense of substitution for me.
I even had the feeling that I could read what the author of the book was thinking at the time.
By the time I watched a fifth of the way around, it was already six o'clock in the evening, and the instant noodles I had soaked at noon on the table had already become a lump.
And behind the instant noodles, Qian Lao still specializes in the lines on the night pearl.
At this time, although Qian Lao hadn't eaten at noon, he seemed to be in a good mental state, and even his eyebrows were filled with a look of almost excitement.
At this moment, I knew that after nearly a full day of study, Qian Lao was probably close to breaking the secret of the Night Pearl!
As I expected, not long after, Qian Lao's eyes suddenly lit up, and the whole person suddenly got up, with an excited look between his eyebrows.
"I see, I've finally figured it out!"
Qian Lao exclaimed excitedly, put down the night pearl in his hand, and stretched out to the box on the table in front of him.
Quickly pulling the box in front of him, Elder Qian exhaled a long breath.
At this moment, Qian Lao's hand quickly rotated on the second layer of the octagonal box in this place, and the angle rotated nearly 180 degrees.
After completing this step, Qian Laoyou rotated the second layer of the box counterclockwise by nearly 90 degrees at the same time.
After the first two steps were completed, Qian Lao's face suddenly became solemn, and he glanced at me.
"Little Brother Li, come here and help!"
I immediately stood up, walked around the coffee table to Qian Lao's side, and stared at the box in front of Qian Lao.
"Old Qian, what do you want me to do?"
While staring at the box closely, I opened my mouth to ask, I have long been prepared for this kind of thing, and if I want to unlock the mechanism in front of me, I must need my help.
The mechanism in front of you is so precise, if you want to crack it, you must need the cooperation of two hands, otherwise the mechanism of this box will not be divided into two parts.
"Little Brother Li, when you crack the mechanism for a while, you are staring closely at the location of the place on the machine box, the first round hole in the upper right corner of the east, and the second round hole in the lower left corner of the north facing up."
"After a while, I said press, these two round holes should be pressed at the same time, and there must not be a slight deviation."
Hearing Qian Lao's words, I nodded solemnly, many of the trap boxes set up, once there is the slightest deviation in the opening method, then the contents of the trap box will probably be destroyed immediately.
Seeing that I nodded solemnly, Qian Lao knew that I understood the stakes.
I picked up the chopsticks that had been holding the instant noodles on the table in front of me, holding one in one hand and pressing it tightly against the button.
The buttons on it are thinner than a person's pinky finger, and it's impossible to get them in without the help of anything.
Seeing that I was ready, Qian Lao slowly turned the mechanism box on the first floor, and when the first layer of the box rotated about 45 degrees, Qian Lao's pupils dilated slightly.
"Press!"
At this moment, Qian Lao almost roared, I trembled all over, and my two hands moved almost instantly, and I inserted the chopsticks into the corresponding button.
The moment the button activated, the entire box immediately sounded as the mechanism operated.
Click.....
"It's moving!"
Qian Lao let out a sound of surprise, staring at the box in front of him, and my eyes also followed Qian Lao, locked on the box in front of me.
The whole box shook rapidly, and then every layer of the whole box spun rapidly.
I held my breath nervously, not even daring to breathe.
After each layer turns, the entire mechanism box will make a clicking sound, and the first layer of mechanism will slowly expand outward like flower petals.
The speed at which the mechanism doesn't expand too fast, but it always maintains a sense of beauty, and as each floor expands outward, I can vaguely see the inside of the box.
The inside of the box has something else besides the gears.
