Chapter 405: Unpacking

Except for me, everyone who knew the inside story was very scared, and no one dared to touch the female corpse, and in the end, it was Song Gan who forced him with a gun, and only then did two soldiers carry the female corpse out.

After getting off the boat, I asked Song Kan to find the saw blade, and the first thing I did was to cut open the iron box.

Song Gan rummaged in the tent for a long time, and really found a saw. The soldiers packed up their things and prepared to evacuate, while I sat on the ground and sawed the tin box with a saw, and saw it for a long time without even cutting a hole.

Yang Wenming said beside him, why don't I try it?

I really had no choice, I gave him the saw and the iron box, Yang Wenming squatted there, snorting and sawing back and forth, and it was useless to work for half a day, just leaving a white mark on the iron box. He was sweating all over his head and said to me, "Mr. Wang, I bet this box is definitely not made of iron sheets, it is too strong, if it really can't be hit, let's use bullets." ”

I snatched it up, frowned, and said, "You can pull it down, what if everything inside is blown up?" ”

At this time, the soldier carried the supplies and the female corpse to the car, and the team was about to leave, Song Gan came to me and told me that this thing was slowly sawing on the road and could not delay the trip.

I thought about it, asked Yang Wenming to translate it, and told Song Gan that I would not follow, and the task of finding the corpse was completed, so I took my leave.

I did this after careful consideration, although the diamonds they promised were very tempting, and I also wanted to take a look at that organization, but once I entered the organization, I couldn't help the ownership of this iron box, and if it caused a big mess at that time, it was better to withdraw it now.

My move was unreasonable in Yang Wenming's eyes, and he gave up the reward for diamonds for such a broken box, and he looked at me with very strange eyes.

Song Gan is worthy of being a veteran, he doesn't rub sand in his eyes, and said to me bluntly, Mr. Wang, are you worried about losing this box?

Everyone lived and died, and I didn't hide it from him, so I nodded and admitted it.

Song Gan thought about it, and did not go against my wishes, he unloaded the matching gun, handed it to me, and motioned to keep it for self-defense. I was also a little emotional, shook hands with him, asked Yang Wenming to translate over, and told him that your brother Meng Chai should quickly find a wizard to pull out the corpse poison, this job is not difficult, as long as it is a wizard in black.

Song Gan nodded, nodded and called Meng Chai to come and thank me. Yang Wenming saw that there was no room for recovery in this matter, and his face was miserable, and he could see that he was really sorry for the diamond's reward. I smiled and said, "Old Yang, if you are brave enough, follow them back to the team and see if you can get the diamonds, if you can get them, it will be yours." ”

Yang Wenming smacked his lips, really thought about it for a long time, and sighed: "I'd better not wade into troubled waters." ”

At this time, a veteran in the team suddenly said something. Yang Wenming's eyes widened suddenly, I saw that there was something wrong, and quickly asked what was wrong, Yang Wenming said: "This person just said that this box is not opened like this." ”

As soon as I heard this, I exploded, and hurriedly went over and grabbed the old soldier's sleeve: "Brother, will you open this box?" ”

The veteran didn't understand what I was saying and was taken aback by the rude gesture. He looked at Song Gan, Song Gan spoke a few words of Southeast Asian, the two exchanged quickly, Yang Wenming was translating in a low voice, saying that Song Gan said to this soldier, if you can open it, you can help open it, and the reward will not be less.

I hurriedly asked Yang Wenming to take out two gold leaves. Yang Wenming was very sensible, and gave a piece of gold leaf to Song Gan and a piece to the veteran. The eyes of the soldiers around him were red, and they all gathered around, and the veteran took it in his hand and bit it with his teeth, and happily put it away.

He came up to me, took the tin box, and muttered. Yang Wenming said: "He said that he is a Khmer, and this box mechanism is a typical Seven Treasure Chest. ”

I asked Yang Wenming to communicate with this veteran and let him speak clearly. According to the meaning of what the veteran said, I probably learned that the veteran heard his grandfather once say that their Khmer people originated in ancient Burma, and at that time in Southeast Asia, they were rampant, fighting everywhere and looting property, and after grabbing it, the royal family hired the most powerful locksmith to lock everything up. In the long run, a very special high-end industry was born, that is, locksmiths.

In the culture of locksmiths, there are many mechanisms for collecting treasures, and one of them is called the Seven Treasure Chest. This kind of box belongs to the more mediocre kind of locksmith's ancient mechanism.,The anti-theft effect is very average.,But when is the score.。 In ancient times, it was not called the stream, but now, many locksmiths' skills have been lost, and occasionally leaving such a seven treasure chest, it has become an extremely complex and high-end technology, if you don't understand the sleeve here, you really can't open it.

I hurriedly asked him, will you?

The veteran was proud, saying that he was the heir of the ancient locksmith family, but this set of skills was not used now, so he came to be a soldier. I didn't expect to use it today and earn money.

My heart was racing, and I promised him that if he opened the box, I would pay him more.

The veteran sat on the ground, held the box in his arms, and gently touched the rough surface with his hands. He didn't look at it, but touched it with his eyes closed, relying entirely on his hands.

For five or six minutes, he kept his eyes closed and groped, and it was very quiet around him, and everyone was watching him.

He suddenly opened his eyes, took a deep breath, pulled the dagger from his waist, and gently slid the tip of the knife across the surface. Everyone watched with bated breath, and the atmosphere did not dare to breathe, the tip of the veteran's knife moved extremely fast, and he moved something, and from a very inconspicuous place, he actually pulled out a thin wire.

How thin is this wire, he picked it out to know that there is such a thing, and he has to use the sunlight to see it from different angles, and he can't see it from another angle, as thin as spider silk.

The veteran said a word, and Yang Wenming hurriedly translated: "He said that the key to opening the Seven Treasure Chest is to find this wire, and if you can't find it, you will use any method in vain." ”

He pulled the wire hard, and immediately there was a sound of the clockwork turning, extremely slight, like countless gears turning, and then there were two muffled sounds, and the tin box opened.

There was a commotion in the crowd, and the veteran looked at me, this man was simply too sensible, he knew that it was my thing, and he didn't open the box easily without my permission.

Yang Wenming looked at me expectantly, I hesitated for a moment, seeing that everyone was looking at me, I didn't have time to think about it, and nodded. The old soldier rubbed his hands together and slowly opened the lid of the box, and everyone looked inside, and the box was empty, and there was nothing but a thin book.

I was a little confused and took the book out. The book is extremely thin, and the pages are dark green, a bit like the texture of hay rubbing.

I cautiously flipped open a page with a deep black pen written incomprehensibly unreadable text, a black dye made of unknown pieces, and a little muddy on the page, making the unfamiliar words look even more illegible.

When they came to look at it, I asked, "Do any of you know what is written on it?" ”

Yang Wenming took out the gold leaf, and now everyone came to see it. The page is so thin that I don't feel comfortable giving it to them to flip through and hold it in my own hands.

At this time, a man said a word, or the old man who picked the lock, and he said, it looked a bit like the ancient Burmese language of the Khmer.

"Can you read it?" I hurriedly asked.

The veteran shook his head and said that he had seen this kind of writing before, and that it was in the market town near his home when he was a child, and there were people who specialized in selling ancient books, and there were similar words on them. At that time, no one knew where he lived, and if he wanted to know what was written on it, he had to consult an expert or an old man.

I made a gesture and motioned for Yang Wenming to give him the gold leaf. The veteran smiled happily.

I can't decipher it now, but I have a gut feeling that this book is not easy, so I found a plastic bag in the camp, sealed it in it, and put it in my inner pocket.

The old soldier pointed to the box and asked me if I wanted it, and I was a little surprised, saying you look at it. The veteran actually put the box in the car and wanted to take it back.

Yang Wenming smiled: "I have two gold leaves, this person is still asking for food, picking up everything, it's really useless." ”

Everyone got into the car and started the return journey. When I got the contents of the box, I didn't have any worries. This time, it would be better if I could really get diamonds, and if anything happened over there, I would also like to see what the organization is like. There is another person who worries me the most, that is, Ugly, why is she there.

Jeeps take mountain roads, and there are places where only people can climb and cars can't walk, so they have to take a detour. The car was bumpy all the way in the mountains, everyone was up and down, and the buttocks hurt when they fell, but everyone's interest was very high, after all, the task was successfully completed, although a few people died, but as long as the task was completed, it didn't matter.

After a day of walking in the mountains, near evening, we came to a cliff, and we couldn't walk any further than the car in front of us, so we had to come down and hike. Everyone carried supplies, and there were four people who were responsible for carrying the female corpse, and we crossed the mountains together, and finally reached the other side of the mountain before the sun set.

Condescendingly, I saw a small village in the mountains and forests not far away, surrounded by sentry posts, and in the setting sun, I could see people standing guard with guns. The small mountain village is full of thatched houses with domes, which look very exquisite, and there are many off-road vehicles parked in the open space.

It's time to eat, and the smoke in the mountain village is faint, reflecting the sun that is about to set, which is a bit of a paradise.

But I know that it is a human cave that kills people without seeing blood.
