Chapter Fifty-Seven: A Hundred Boats of Cloth Immortals
In addition to those patterns, there are only a few holes left on the chest, so if you want to open this chest, you must find clues from these holes.
I took a flashlight, shone through the largest hole, carefully proofread the light, and looked down the narrow wall of the hole, but I didn't see the light penetrating to the opposite side, which means that the holes in the box are not connected.
If that's the case, I'm afraid these holes are the keyholes for opening the box, but how do we find the key?
Thinking of this, we all looked at the old clock again, he is well-informed, and if he can find the box, he should also have a way to open it.
But Lao Zhong shook his head and only said, "I was in the tomb at the time, and I didn't find anything else except this box, so the way to open the box was to ask us to find it from the outside." ”
At this time, Dongfang took over and said, "I know a few locksmiths, but I don't know if I can open this ancient lock, and looking at the style of this box, it seems that the lock heart and the box are integrated, in case it can't be opened, I'm afraid the box will be destroyed!" ”
Hearing him say this, Liu Ran became even more worried, and even if he found the box, he couldn't open it, and he didn't know what was inside.
Lao Zhong comforted her and said, "Don't worry, when we go back, there are capable people in the Forbidden City, and we will definitely find a way to unlock the lock when the time comes." ”
Now, I can only think about it a little, hoping that these words will not just comfort Liu Ran.
As for the contents of the box, I am not curious that it is fake, but I am far less eager to know the answer as Liu Ran.
But I don't know if this answer is good or bad? She is like a taut string now, if she sees that what is inside has nothing to do with Liu Qingchun at all, I really don't know what she will do.
I don't dare to think about it anymore, looking at the box, if Liu Qingchun once thought about it, there should be an explanation of the Liu family's affairs inside.
After talking about the box, I asked Lao Zhong and Chen Haidong what happened to him, but he deliberately concealed it, and only perfunctory me said that I was too tired, and I would talk about it tomorrow if there was anything.
I think so, he had just returned from the tomb, and he might even have walked back on foot.
With such a long journey, even if Lao Zhong's physical strength is good, I'm afraid he won't have the energy to survive with us.
However, when he returned, we didn't have time to prepare a place for him to sleep, so I had to sacrifice myself and give him my bed.
I hold the bunk and lay on the ground, but fortunately, it is also suitable for bunks now, and I can feel cool when I lie on the clean floor.
The last time I looked at the time, it was already about one o'clock in the second half of the night, and after I lay down, I was still thinking about what Lao Zhong had just said, but after thinking about it, there was no result.
Before I knew it, I fell asleep, and I slept until the next morning, and when the nurse came to hang a drip for Chen Haidong, I woke me up.
I rubbed my eyes and looked at the time, and found that it was half past nine.
The nurse came over, looked at me a few times, and then pointed to the old clock lying on my bed and asked, "Who is this?" ”
When I got up, I smiled apologetically at her, briefly explained the identity of the old bell to her, and then asked her if there were any free beds.
The little nurse walked past me and said, "You guys get ready, I guess the patient will wake up today, and if there is no problem, he will be discharged tomorrow." ”
As soon as I heard that Chen Haidong was fine, I didn't have the heart to ask anything, and after cleaning up the bed, I was about to go out to wash, but at this time, another person came from outside.
I walked face to face with the man who came in, and I saw that this man was burly, about forty years old, and wearing a black suit.
After a few glances with this person, I asked, "Who are you looking for?" ”
The man walked around me and looked inside, then replied, "Did you all witness my brother's death last night?" ”
"What?!" Early in the morning, I was stunned by such a sentence, but as soon as I thought about it, I understood, could it be that this person was the senior brother of the deceased last night?
However, how could he know where we lived, and he still found it, it was Inspector Wang who asked him to come.
But if Inspector Wang had decided that I was a suspect in the first place, how could he have let us go last night?
Thinking to myself, I hesitated to answer, "Yes! Can I help you? ”
The man snorted coldly, "What have you all seen, now make it clear to me!" ”
I saw him so unpolite, and I was also a little impatient, and said in my heart that we are not murderers, what do you want to ask, what do you want to know, do not go to the police station, come to us with a few meanings, as if we are murderers.
Thinking so, I also pulled my face down, "I'm sorry, you better go to the police station and ask, we just happened to bump into this, and we already told everything we knew last night." ”
With that, I was about to walk around him, but as soon as I took two steps out, I felt that the collar of my neck was lifted up by an arm.
Then I was dragged back, and the little nurse who gave the injection took a few steps back in panic, "Who are you?!" ”
The man didn't answer, and glanced at the hospital bed a few times, and everyone else was still asleep, because they had rested very late last night, and now they couldn't wake up at all.
I knew I wasn't as strong as this man, but I kept struggling, kicking my feet back, but in a few clicks I was thrown to the ground like a chicken.
Then, the man turned around and said to the nurse, "There's nothing for you here, we're all friends, and I want to ask a few questions, so you can go out first!" ”
The little nurse hesitated, but left, and when the door to the ward was shut, I slammed up from the ground, rushed over, and kicked the man in the stomach.
I estimated that my strength was not small, but kicking this person's body was like kicking on a stone grinder, and my toes were hurt by the squeeze, and then I looked at the other party but did not move at all, and there was no reaction at all.
I wondered, could this man be made of stone? I was about to rush over again, but as soon as I rushed to his side, I suddenly heard a gust of wind blowing by, and then the person in front of me ran behind me somehow.
When I was suspicious, the man put a hand on my shoulder, and then with a force on his hand, he pulled me behind me, and I was taken a few steps back, and my center of gravity fell to the ground obliquely.
This time, I felt that he didn't use much force, but it was like my own body had become lighter, and I lost my center of gravity when he pulled it so gently.
I was not convinced, and was about to stand up and fight him again, when I suddenly heard the door open and a security guard rushed in.
But as soon as the door was pushed open by the security guard, it was suddenly closed by another wind-like force, and blocked the others outside the door, when I saw this person turn around and say coldly to the security guard, "Get out!" This is our private matter! ”
Because of this on his back, I don't know what this person looks like in front of the security guard, but listening to his voice, it is also very intimidating.
The security guard seemed to be frightened by the sudden closing of the door before, glanced at him, and finally did not dare to say anything, and walked out again.
Turning around again, the man suddenly said to the old clock behind me, "Why, aren't you going to explain?" If you go back to sleep, you'll probably end up in the hospital! ”
Hearing him say this, I immediately looked at the old clock on the hospital bed behind me, and he really came over from the bed slowly, yawning, and said slowly, "That free time, can I meet you here?" ”
Listening to their conversation, they actually knew each other, could it be that he came to find Lao Zhong, but when he came in and asked me about last night, what did he want?
"There's nothing to spare, and I'm not here to talk to you, and I didn't know you would be here?"
"Oh, you're here for them, then?" The old bell said, glancing at me a few times, meaning to ask me how I offended this person.
I didn't know either, so I immediately shrugged my shoulders, walked to Lao Zhong's side, and asked directly, "You know him, who is this person?" ”
Hearing me ask this, Lao Zhong didn't shy away from anything, and he didn't seem to be afraid of this person, but when he explained his name to me, he was a little distant.
"He's one of the old friends!" As he spoke, he pointed at me again and said to this person, "Little brother in the Beijing Archives, I don't know what you are looking for him?" ”
Medical immortals? When I heard this, I looked at this man named Baizhou carefully, and no matter how I looked at him, I didn't feel like a doctor, because from the moment I entered the door, I felt that there was a hidden evil aura in him, and there was a kind of estrangement between his eyebrows.
However, Lao Zhong didn't have time to explain these things to me now, but set his eyes on Baizhou.
Baizhou sank for a moment, and then replied, "I came here for the death of my junior brother, he was nearby last night, but he suddenly suffered a ghost thing, and was strangely burned to death on the street by a yin fire, and it was your little brother who was present at that time!" Moreover, Inspector Wang of the police station also suspected that he might have a lot to do with my junior brother's death, so I came to him today, but I didn't expect to meet you! ”
"Who is your junior brother?"
"Face Changing Technique, Li Sansi, you should still remember!"
"Is that him?" Old Zhong also frowned, and after thinking about it, he asked me in a low voice what happened last night.
I was a little overwhelmed by the two of them, feeling that they had become police officers who had come together to interrogate me.
I recalled what happened last night, explained what I knew to the police station, and told them 1510, when Baizhou asked me one after another why I saved people, I really didn't know how to answer, I could only say - "Just because I was curious at the time!" ”
He didn't speak, but his eyes were full of doubt, and I didn't really believe in this answer myself.
"Nothing else?" Lao Zhong asked again, as if he doubted that I would hide something more than Baizhou.
I scratched my head, moved my eyes from the old bell to Baizhou, and then from Baizhou to the old clock, and finally suddenly said, "There is one more thing, I don't know whether to say it or not, in fact, it ......"
