Huang Yixian held the stone box and fiddled with it for a long time, but he didn't open it, I thought he was still hesitating, and said on the side: "Uncle Shi, you just open the box, let's take a look." ”

Huang Yixian glared at me and said, "You think I don't want to open this thing!" But if you want to open it, you have to find the door! ”

"What do you mean?" I didn't react for a moment.

Huang Yixian threw the stone box to me: "You try!" ”

I fumbled around with the box for a while, only to find out that this box didn't have a lid at all! Only in the center of each side of the box are two cross-shaped slits, but no matter which direction you pull it from, no matter how hard you pull it, you can't open it.

Zhai Bo and Ghost Eye Chen also tried separately, but neither of them could open the box.

A few of us were at a loss, when we suddenly heard a sound of footsteps coming from far and near, and we hurriedly turned our heads to see that it was the three of Cheap, Lin Keer and Peter.

Huang Yixian frowned and asked, "Why did you sneak in?" ”

"We've been waiting outside for more than an hour, and I called you outside just now, but you didn't respond, I thought something had happened to you!" ”

Huang Yixian was slightly stunned: "Did you call us just now?" ”

"Of course I shouted! No way! Have you not heard at all? There was a look of surprise on his face.

Huang Yixian immediately understood what was going on: "Damn, it must be that Void Enchantment that is causing trouble!" ”

Zhai Bo nodded and said, "The Void Enchantment can completely isolate the yin and yang aura, and we have just been trapped in it, so naturally we can't hear the cry of the cheap." ”

Hearing this, the cheap person was in a fog, and asked with a blank face, "What Void Enchantment?" ”

"I can't tell you about this for a while!" Huang Yixian didn't have the heart to talk about this to the cheap.

At this time, Lin Ke'er, who was standing aside, caught a glimpse of the black box in Huang Yixian's hand, and asked curiously, "Master Huang, what are you holding in your hand?" ”

Huang Yixian replied: "This should be the evil thing we are looking for, but I don't know how to open this thing!" ”

When Lin Ke'er heard this, her eyes lit up, and she immediately asked, "Can you show me this box!?" ”

"Take it! But it's not light! Take it easy! Huang Yixian said as he handed the stone box to Lin Ke'er.

Lin Keer took the black box with both hands and held it in his arms to examine it carefully.

She seemed more anxious than we were to know what was in the box, fiddling with the stone box back and forth, looking very focused, but she fiddled with it for a while before she could open it.

Huang Yixian said with a smile on the side: "Miss Lin, don't bother, this thing is not so easy to open, I guess I have to use some special way!" ”

"In any particular way?" Cheap asked.

"I can't tell! In ancient times, there was a kind of qi spirit lock, there was no key, but it was unlocked by using the changes in the aura of the five elements, maybe this thing was set up with a qi spirit lock, if this is the case, then if you want to open this box unless you find an object with a specific aura, or put it in a specific aura. Huang Yixian replied.

After listening to what Huang Yixian said, Lin Ke'er suddenly thought of something and asked, "Could the object that opened this box be the stone tablet left by my great-grandfather!?" ”

The stone tablet was now in Ghost Eye Chen's hand, he took the stone tablet out of his pocket and handed it to Lin Ke'er, saying, "It shouldn't be!" I've already opened the trap with this thing, so I won't be able to open this box again. ”

Lin Keer held the mentality of trying it out, and put the stone tablet next to the stone box, but the stone box did not react at all.

Seeing this, the cheap said on the side: "I don't think about it so much, I'll find a hammer when I get out of the road, and I can smash this thing open!" ”

As soon as his words fell, Lin Ke'er suddenly turned his head and said, "Never!" If it is smashed, it may destroy the yin and yang aura of that thing! Cause ......" She was halfway through her sentence when Peter tapped her lightly on the shoulder, and she seemed to realize that she had said something wrong and hurriedly shut up.

Although Lin Keer did not continue to shrink, her half sentence made me stunned, how could she, a layman, think of this!? And the tone in which she spoke just now was like an expert in yin and yang occultism. I couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "Miss Lin, how do you know that smashing the stone box will destroy the yin and yang aura of the things inside?" ”

"I ...... I'm just guessing......" Lin Ke'er's face showed a hint of panic.

I wanted to ask again, but Peter, who was standing next to her, grabbed the topic and said, "Since you can't open this thing, give it to me, I can first analyze it spectrally and draw a diagram of its internal structure, and I will definitely be able to find a way to open it." With that, he took the stone box from Lin Ke'er's hand.

Seeing this, Ghost Eye Chen was quick to see this, suddenly stepped forward, snatched the box from Peter's hand, and said with a smile: "Hehe, you don't understand the yin and yang mysticism, so don't follow it." ”

Peter's face changed slightly, but he couldn't refute Ghost Eye Chen's words, because he himself admitted that he didn't know anything about Yin Yang Occult Arts. He had no choice but to glance at Lin Ke'er. Lin Ke'er coughed lightly and said, "That ......, since the things you are looking for now have been found, and your task has been completed, I will not lose any of your honorarium." As for this thing, you better leave it to me, and Peter will take care of the rest. ”

I didn't expect Lin Ke'er to come out like this, I was stunned for a moment, looked at Huang Yixian, and then looked at Ghost Eye Chen, and I didn't know what to say for a while. Although it stands to reason that we should indeed hand over this thing to Lin Ke'er, I always feel that something is wrong in my heart, and this feeling is getting stronger and stronger.

I settled down and asked, "Miss Lin, how are you going to open this box?" ”

Lin Ke'er smiled and said, "As Peter said, I will bring this thing to the United States, and using the latest high-tech technology, I believe that I will be able to unlock the secrets hidden in the box." ”

As soon as her words fell, Huang Yixian, who was standing on the side, snorted lightly and said coldly: "Hmph! Since you believe so much in the high-tech technology of the United States, why did you still ask us to do this work in the first place? ”

Lin Ke'er was speechless for a while, she was silent for a moment, then suddenly took out something from her satchel and handed it over, saying: "No matter what, but now that this matter is over, I am grateful for everything you have done, this is a check for five million, one million for each of you!" Just give me the box and you'll get what you deserve! ”

When I heard this, I couldn't help but tremble slightly, five million! This is several times higher than the remuneration we agreed before, and it can be regarded as a sky-high reward. But for some reason, instead of the slightest joy in my heart, I became more and more confused, feeling that Lin Keer seemed to be here for this box, so he did not hesitate to temporarily increase the remuneration several times. So, what is the purpose of her desire to get this box? Does she know what is inside the Dao box?

A series of questions popped up from my mind, and I felt more and more that I couldn't rush to hand over the box to her, but the current situation was obviously not for me to decide, I peeked at Huang Yixian standing beside me, he was staring at the check in Lin Keer's hand, and his eyes seemed to emit green light.

Seeing his demeanor, I couldn't help but think to myself, it's over, Lin Ke'er can be said to have completely grasped Huang Yixian's weakness, as soon as this huge check for no million is thrown out, Huang Yixian will definitely agree to hand over the box to her.

I glanced at Ghost Eye Chen again, but he was expressionless, and it seemed that money was not much more attractive to him than a piece of waste paper.

I was thinking about how to persuade Huang Yixian to refuse Lin Ke'er, and Huang Yixian said: "Miss Lin, your handshake is five million, which is really a big deal, but aren't you afraid that the things in this box are worthless at all?" ”

Lin Keer said with a smile: "Compared to my grandfather's last wish, let alone five million, even if it is fifty million, I am willing." ”

Huang Yixian nodded approvingly: "She is really a good girl with filial piety!" ”

Hearing Huang Yixian's tone, I couldn't help but feel nervous, just when I thought he was about to take the check in Lin Ke'er's hand and hand over the stone box to her, he suddenly changed his words and said: "However, as far as I know, you came to our Qibao Zhai, it seems that it is not to ask us to help you find this box, but to help you investigate the truth of the tragedy sixty years ago, right?" ”

Lin Ke'er was slightly stunned, and only reacted after a while, and hurriedly said: "I believe that this box is the key evidence to find out the truth, so as long as you hand over the box to me, even if the task has been completed." ”

Huang Yixian smiled and said: "Although I, Huang, love money, I take it in a good way, and collecting money before this thing is done is not my Huang style." You might as well keep the five million first, and when the matter is done, we will naturally come to you to collect the money. ”

Huang Yixian's answer was completely unexpected by me, but I didn't expect that Huang Yixian would refuse Lin Keer's five million, this move is completely similar to Huang Yixian, who is greedy for money on weekdays.

Lin Ke'er didn't expect Huang Yixian to refuse her, so she was immediately anxious, and hurriedly asked, "What about this box!?" ”

Huang Yixian turned his head and glanced at the stone box that was held in his arms by Ghost Eye Chen, and replied with a smile: "Let's let a few of our old guys study this thing again, if it comes out, we won't even be able to open a stone box, how will we mix it up in the future!" ”

Lin Ke'er was speechless, she stared at the stone box for a while, raised her head and said, "Okay, this box will be placed with you first, but after three days, whether the box is opened or not, you have to hand over the box to me!" It's something my great-grandfather left behind, after all. I'm going to have to take it anyway! ”

Huang Yixian nodded: "Okay!" Three days is three days! ”
