Chapter 394: Posture to the lowest
The box is placed on the desk.
I don't know how Old Man Mo fiddled with it, but the box was like a lotus blooming, slowly "opening", revealing the inside.
After seeing it clearly, Yao Bing and the four girls were stunned, and they all spoke, "This box is empty?" ”
Old Man Mo nodded, "That's right, this box is empty." ”
In the study, there was silence for a moment.
No one thought that the box they had worked so hard to get from the Ling family would have nothing in it!
"What do you mean by Old Man Ling?" The fourth girl frowned, "Could it be that he didn't actually let us take this box, he just wanted to let us take this box, and then cooperate with Ling Yunfeng to implement what kind of scheme to kill us?" ”
This is the most plausible guess at the moment.
Otherwise, how could Old Man Ling let them go to the trouble of taking an empty box out?
Old Man Mo pondered for a moment, raised his head and asked Yao Bing, "Little Master Yao, what do you mean?" ”
"I don't think so." Yao Bing frowned and shook his head slightly, "If it is really a game set up by their ancestors and grandchildren, then when I go to get this box, Ling Yunfeng will definitely know about it, and he will take the opportunity to cover me in the house, even if he can't get rid of me, it can make my reputation stink." However, although Ling Yunfeng framed me, he didn't seem to know about it. ”
The fourth girl retorted, "You are in Old Man Ling's bedroom, didn't you enter some kind of demon prison entrance?" Perhaps, this is the game set up by their ancestors and grandchildren, as long as you enter Old Man Ling's bedroom, you will enter the game......"
"Hell of the Devil?"
Old Man Mo asked suspiciously, "What demon hell?" ”
In the Ling family, the time was too rushed, and Yao Bing didn't tell him about the Demon Prison, so Old Man Mo didn't know.
Yao Bing quickly told the matter of the Demon Prison again, but deliberately ignored the fact that he could be prompted on the page.
"When you entered the Devil's Prison, you saw a mirror?" Old Man Mo frowned tightly, and he didn't understand what was going on for a while, "There is nothing else in the mirror?" ”
Yao Bing shook his head, "It's just me." ”
Old Man Mo didn't give up, "Have you checked the bronze mirror to see if there is anything greasy?" ”
"Nope." Yao Bing shook his head again, "At this time, the fourth sister was worried about me and woke me up...... I didn't have time to examine the bronze mirror. But this is not to blame the fourth sister, the fourth sister couldn't see anything at that time, only saw me standing in the bedroom of the old man Ling in a daze, she was worried that something would happen to me......"
The fourth girl was secretly annoyed, if she was a few minutes late, maybe Yao Bing would have found something.
But seeing that Yao Bing took all the responsibility on him, the four girls felt a slight sweetness in their hearts, and a smile slowly bloomed in their beautiful eyes.
It's just that she didn't even notice it herself.
"What about the woman who led the way?" Old Man Mo asked again, "She didn't show up later?" ”
"Nope."
Yao Bing shook his head again.
Old Man Mo was silent.
He couldn't imagine for a moment what connection this box had with the demon prison that Yao Bing had said.
"Grandpa Mo, what is the origin of this box, why can't I open it when I look at it? Is your old man's house open? After being silent for a long time, Yao Bing finally asked Old Man Mo curiously.
Since there is nothing in this box, and they can't find any clues, it is better to start with the box itself and see if they can find any clues.
"Xiao Bing, what are you going to ......" Old Man Mo was stunned for a moment, and quickly understood Yao Bing's intentions, and quickly explained: "This box is called the Eight Treasure Box, which is a kind of mechanism box, which was used to store precious items at first, but later this box was rare enough to be preserved. The Ling family has a great cause, and it is not uncommon for a few treasures to be preserved. ”
Old Man Mo briefly explained the origin of this box, and said with a solemn face: "If you deduce from this box, I'm afraid there are no clues." ”
Yao Bing was silent.
Old Man Mo was right, but judging from the origin of this box, there was nothing special, and he planned to deduce the purpose of Old Man Ling asking them to take this box from the origin of the box, but I am afraid he would not be able to find any clues.
"Maybe the fourth girl is right, Old Man Ling doesn't have any special intentions, he just wants to take this opportunity to fulfill Ling Yunfeng, and we are all put together by him." Seeing that Yao Bing didn't speak for a long time, Old Man Mo sighed and said, "After all, he is the Ling family and Ling Yunfeng's own grandfather, how can he not look to his own grandson?" ”
The four girls and Yao Bing were silent at the same time.
Now the box is open, but there is still no clue!
The three of them were silent.
After a while, Yao Bing got up and said goodbye: since there are no clues, it is not interesting for him to stay in the study, it is better to follow Old Man Mo's method and go back and take down Mo Shiyao and Liang Qinghui first.
The four girls went to send Yao Bing out as usual according to Old Man Mo's instructions.
"Wait!"
Just as Yao Bing was about to go out, Old Man Mo's voice came from behind him.
Yao Bing and the four girls suddenly paused, Yao Bing turned around and asked, "Grandpa Mo, what did you think?" ”
"Little soldier, I suddenly thought of this Eight Treasure Box, and there should be one in Gao Lao's hand." Old Man Mo frowned and spoke, "He was proud of the eight treasure boxes, and asked me to watch them together." It's just that I don't remember what was delayed at the time, and I haven't seen it yet. ”
Yao Bing's heart moved, "Elder Gao also has an eight-treasure box there?" Grandpa Mo, are you sure? ”
Old Man Mo nodded and sighed: "However, many years have passed since this incident, and I don't know if the box is still in Elder Gao's hands...... However, there are two such boxes, and perhaps it is not a big deal. I just thought about it, and I just mentioned it casually. ”
"Grandpa Mo, I'm going to find Old Man Gao." Old Man Mo didn't hold out much hope, but Yao Bing's eyes shone brightly, "I once remembered that Old Man Gao asked me to summon his wife out, and what kind of box he asked. Perhaps, the box in Gao Lao's mouth is this eight treasure box. ”
Mrs. Gao has been dead for many years, and Mr. Gao asked about the whereabouts of the box with one mouth, and the box is very important.
Therefore, he planned to ask Gao Lao about the whereabouts of the Eight Treasure Boxes, and maybe he would ask for something.
"It's just that now the Gao family is in a situation with us, and Old Man Gao has a stubborn temper, I'm afraid he won't let you know......" Old Man Mo let out a long sigh, "If you go, it's good to be mentally prepared." Also, you must pay attention to safety, and don't be defenseless! ”
This meaning, Old Man Mo has already said it is obvious.
Yao Bing must be careful of Old Man Gao!
"Thank you Grandpa Mo for your concern, I have my own sense of proportion." Yao Bing's heart warmed, and he nodded in agreement.
Now that his mother and Aunt Huang have passed away one after another, he is close to the Mo family in this world, and now that Old Man Mo has told him, he is naturally grateful in his heart.
After bidding farewell to Old Man Mo, Yao Bing rushed to Gao's house as fast as he could.
The four girls originally planned to come with him, but Yao Bing refused, the four girls were so beautiful and swaggering, it was too ostentatious, or he went alone to be more low-key!
"Stop!"
"Who are you?"
As soon as Yao Bing arrived at the gate of the Gao family, he was stopped by the guards at the door.
The guard glanced at Yao Bing condescendingly, and saw that Yao Bing was just a half-grown boy in shabby clothes, so they didn't pay attention to it at all, they only asked coldly, and then they pushed out like a dog, "Go, go, go to the child's house to play somewhere else!" Don't be an eyesore at the door! ”
The Gao family is a huge rich man.
The servants of the Gao family naturally followed the eyes above the top, and ordinary people would not take them seriously. If you want to enter the door of the Gao family, you really have to have a good relationship with them.
Many people who came to visit Gao Lao were stopped by this group of guards!
For a little kid, they naturally don't discriminate!
"I'm looking for Elder Gao." Yao Bing said lightly, "I'm sorry for you to report it." ”
Several guards were stunned, and then burst into laughter in unison:
"Did you hear that just now, this kid said he wanted to see our old man? Hahahaha, just because he also wants to see our old man? ”
"I said, boy, you better hurry up and find a place where no one is, and take care of yourself to see if your virtue is qualified to enter this door! Besides, the front door is full of people, how can people like you enter? ”
……
They didn't take Yao Bing seriously at all!
"Then I'm sorry for you to tell me, how do you go through the back door?" Yao Bing didn't argue with a few guards, but said in a good voice, "Since the front door is busy, it's always okay for me to enter through the back door, right?" ”
He came here today to ask Old Man Gao, so naturally he would not quarrel with the guards of the Gao family.
Yao Bing put his posture to the lowest.
