Guigu Wormhole Chapter 8: The Secret of the Ancient Box (2)
The moment Lao Xu touched it, it snapped and cracked. Yes, that's right, it's cracked. A box suddenly goes from a three-dimensional state to a two-dimensional plane spread flat on a table. The three of us looked at each other, and I'll it, it's cooler than Transformers.
When it was cracked, it was unobstructed inside, and there was nothing left. The azusa wood bowl became a catalpa plank. Other than that, there is nothing else...
The scholar obviously couldn't accept such a result for a while. I ran over and looked at it for a long time, muttering, what about the baby, what about the baby?
After all, the scholar and I are outsiders, but I just think that since it is called a spoon, and there is indeed a very ingenious mechanism used to lock this Azusa wooden spoon, there must be a treasure in it. With this premise, our expectations are high. Now I am disillusioned, and I don't know what to do for a while.
Still old and professional enough, he still wore his white gloves, repeatedly observing the "azusa plank", touching it with his hands for a while, and looking up and thinking about it for a while. The scholar and I are too lazy to care about him, let him study.
The scholar said: "Mr. Xia, now that the baby is gone, I think it is better to hand over the broken box to Liu Suo." It can be regarded as a meritorious service, I heard that the case offered a lot of money, and you can get a reward if you hand it over. ”
I lit a cigarette, glanced at the scholar, and then said, "Well, I don't know if the reward will be given to me, but you are squatting." If you can't reasonably explain the origin of this box to the police, it is estimated that you can eat the nest head every day. ”
The scholar was silent, such a broken box is still worth tracking down by so many people, is this box fake?
"Huh? Strange, this is..."Lao Xu didn't speak for a long time, and as soon as he spoke, he attracted the attention of me and the scholar.
"What's the situation, Lao Xu?" The scholar saw that Lao Xu's expression was wrong.
"Scholar, Lao Xia, you two come and see, there is a discovery on the inner wall of the Azusa Wood Bowl!"
The scholar and I snatched the magnifying glass from Lao Xu's hand and carefully observed it against the inner wall of the azusa wooden spoon. Sure enough, something was found. To be precise, a lot of dense symbols should have been found.
Lao Xu used paper to stretch these symbols from the inner wall. Then he observed it and said that this was the pre-Qin small seal, and it seemed that this Zimu was really made by the Qin Dynasty.
The scholar looked at the words that looked like spider crawling marks, and said, "Lao Xu, you have studied the Qin and Han dynasties so much. This is your chance to make a meritorious performance, take a look, what the hell is this writing? ”
Lao Xu was also very excited, holding a magnifying glass and looking carefully on the rubbing paper, opening the computer for a while, and opening a notebook for a while. After tossing for a long time, he put down the magnifying glass, looked solemn, called me and the scholar over, and said: "I have basically understood the text, although it is made in the small seal I understand, but the content is extremely difficult and obscure, which is amazing. I've written the translated content on rubbing, and you two can take a look. ”
The scholar and I took the rubbing paper from the table, and saw that the side of the rubbed ancient characters was marked in Chinese:
Heaven and earth are yellow, and the universe is desolate.
One, two, three, all things are safe.
The ancestral garden of the dragon rises and stretches for thousands of miles.
The wind and rain came suddenly, and it was taken carefully.
There are ancient treasures, and there are records of paths.
If it is fateful, it can be limited.
Thousands of miles to travel, thousands of important things.
The ultimate is the ultimate achievement.
The scholar and I silently read it several times, but we didn't understand the meaning at all, and looked at Lao Xu with an inquiring eye.
Lao Xu waved his hand and said, "Although I know the pre-Qin Xiaozhen, I can't figure out the meaning of these words for a while. I have only translated the meaning into modern Chinese preliminarily. I need some time to pass on the rubbing and the preliminary translation to my peers in the circle. Ask them to help with the research. I think these words have a lot of meaning. ”
The scholar and I are laymen about these things, so we can only agree to this method. Anyway, there is no treasure, and there may be some major discoveries in studying this ancient script, which is really a good opportunity to make a name for yourself.
We were talking passionately when there was a snap and the door was kicked open. The three of them looked up in unison, and one of them had already walked in. The man had a messy hair, old clothes, and a pair of black cloth shoes. It was the boy who came.
The corners of the boy's mouth were still slightly upturned, and he smiled contemptuously, looking like he was underwhelmed. The scholar was furious and drank, "Boy, which one are you?" Running here to make trouble with the Sprinkle family? ”
The young man walked straight over, reaching out to take the ancient box that had become a catalpa plank. Lao Xu was closest to the table, and pressed the shoulder of the earth boy, trying to push him away. The young man just raised his left hand and patted it lightly, and Lao Xu had already bounced out. The scholar and I were stunned for a moment, and immediately instinctively rushed forward. The boy didn't seem to move, and the scholar and I felt like we had hit a wall, and our shoulders immediately ached.
In just a few seconds, I, the scholar, and Lao Xu all lay on the ground, allowing this child-like turtle to pick up the azusa wooden bowl and the rubbing paper. The boy looked at the rubbing, then at us, and didn't say a word. But I saw a coldness in that look, and this kid dared to kill his mouth.
The scholar was still lying on the ground and scolding, little cub, today your three uncles despised you, I didn't expect you to really have a bit of three-legged cat kung fu. If it weren't for the carelessness of the Sprinkle family today, they would have beaten you so much that you couldn't even recognize your mother.
Today, I discovered that the meaning of not being able to look like a person, such a rustic, child-like teenager actually knocked the three of us adults to the ground in an instant. I struggled to get to my feet, but the boy just kicked me down again with what seemed like a light, but actually heavy kick, and then stomped on my chest. I immediately felt like my ribs were about to break, the pain was terrible, and it was getting harder and harder to breathe. I wanted to scold the street, but my mouth was sweet, and then a fishy smell came to my nose, and I guess I was bleeding from the damn inside.
I saw that Lao Xu and the scholar were struggling and wanted to come over to help me. But his vision became blurrier and his mind began to be confused. Is it just dead?! After living for 30 years, it was the first time that I felt death up close, and my feelings of fear, unwillingness, confusion, and anger were intertwined.
Just as I felt about going over to report to Mr. Marx, the boy took a few steps back with an "ah", and my lungs suddenly received enough oxygen, and my spirit was lifted, and I instinctively rolled to the side.
I saw that there was one more person between me and the earth boy. This person is dressed in black clothes and black pants, wearing a black windbreaker, with a well-proportioned figure, and a height of about 1.8 meters. Slightly older than me and the scholar, his face is white and angular, with a pair of thin eyes and two thick eyebrows, his eyes are sharp and calm, exuding an aura that makes people dare not look directly. In his hand, he held a sword that shook like a snake and was about five or six meters long. It's just that this sword is not the same as our common sword, but the kind of soft sword with a corset.
I'm grass, did I trigger some mechanism to cross? Or do you usually help the grandmother cross the road too many times, and the heavens have sent the gods? What kind of road is this, a rustic bastard boy, a weird swordsman pretending to be a hero...
Hurt like this, I still have cranky thoughts. But looking at the scholar and Lao Xu lying next to him, they also had a confused expression. The young man's expression was no longer smiling, and he stood on guard. I noticed a cut in his right arm, and blood was oozing out. The man in black also stood still, his soft sword shaking, like a living snake.
"It turned out to be you." The earth boy said quietly.
"Long time no see, is he okay?" The man in black had a deep but firm voice, not the kind of magnetic male voice, but it was guaranteed that everyone would never forget it.
"Hehe, he's fine. I'm just 'missing' you. I'm here to do business today, these three can't stay, and you'd better not interfere. We'll talk about that later. I'll talk to you when I'm done. "The boy made it clear that he wanted to put us to death.
"You can't take these three people today. You can't do anything. The man in black said in a deep voice.
The three of us can't understand it, and we can't leave, it's really a knife for people and a fish for meat. However, I hope that this man in black will fuck that perverted boy. In the hands of the man in black, there is at least a chance to save his life, and if the turtle wins, the three of us will definitely go to see Mr. Marx.
I see that these two perverts are still talking to each other sentence by sentence, scolding them in my heart, while quietly putting my hand into my pocket, my uncle, I can't beat you, can't I call the police? Call Liu Suo later, no matter how powerful and capable you are of the guns in the hands of the police? I quietly pulled out my phone and put it in my sleeve. Before everyone was paying attention, they had to dial 110. Just then, a text message arrived. I looked down and saw that the messy sender at this critical moment was "no record", and the content was only a few words: "To survive, don't make small moves." That little guy in black can save you. ”
The only one who likes to play mysteries like this is that mysterious person. I hesitated, but I didn't dial 110 after all. Since I have followed the meaning of this mysterious man all the way, and nothing has happened, then I will trust him again.
The earth boy still had that flat expression, looked at the man in black, suddenly his eyes widened, and his right hand struck out ghostly. Seeing that I was about to poke the man in black, I couldn't help but feel nervous. I saw that the man in black just raised it lightly with his hand, and when he stretched out, the right hand of the young man had been sealed by the man in black with his left palm. When the earth boy's surprised expression first appeared, the black-clothed man's left hand shook, only to hear the sound of the card, the earth boy's right hand had fallen softly, and blood continued to flow from the wound just now. The young man clenched his teeth, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
The scholar saw that this kid no longer had the domineering and unobstructed appearance just now, and laughed. At the end, I didn't forget to mock two sentences: "Little brother, just these two times?" Go home and find your mother. Aha. ”
The earth boy sneered: "I learned today." There will be a period later! As soon as he finished speaking, he saw his left hand raised, and a burst of yellow smoke spread.
"Not good! Hold your breath! Hurry up and get out. The man in black jumped out of the room.
The three of us didn't dare to slack off, and everyone could see that this yellow smoke was anything but good. Although it was only a few short breaths, his throat was already dry and suffering. Crawling and crawling, I finally got out of the room. There was only the man in black outside, and the boy had long since disappeared.
We waited until the smoke cleared before we went back. The room was in a mess, and the Azusa Wood and the rubbing paper were no longer on the table, they must have been taken by the young man. The scholar's father and mother kept greeting the young man's family. Lao Xu and I looked at the man in black silently. I only saw his back just now, but now I look closely, this person has a delicate complexion, slender eyes, strong eyebrows, a high nose and a small mouth, and a high appearance.
"This brother has a high surname? Thank you just now for saving our brother three. The scholar raised his hand very much.
As if he hadn't heard, the man in black just re-tied the soft sword around his waist like a belt, and then stood solemnly and silently.
After a while, he suddenly spoke: "I'm afraid you guys won't live long." ”
It turned out that we had just crawled back from the brink of life and death, and we were so frightened by this sentence that we all looked at the man in black.
"That's it, since the fate has come to this, then I'll tell you about it, I don't understand it when I get it, and I'm a ghost who died in vain." And he told us a story......
