Chapter 487: It's Finally Broken

This slender box more than half a meter long looked a little black under the wrapping of spider flesh and blood, and Chen Ziyang judged from the occasional exposed part of the box that this box should be made of bronze, so it would be heavier to carry.

After picking up the Xuanming Ancient Sword, Chen Ziyang put the sword body of the Xuanming Ancient Sword flat against the edge of the box, and wiped it horizontally a few times, scraping off all the spider flesh and slime covering the box. After all six sides of the box were scraped, an antique box with black-green bronze rust was revealed.

Yang Lei also came over and carefully looked at the box in front of him with Chen Ziyang and the two of them.

The box is not exquisite, except for a few simple patterns on the surface, there is no other decoration process on the box, but this box gives people the feeling that it is very strong and should be more practical.

After taking the box and looking around in his hand, Chen Ziyang didn't find a way to open the box, and he didn't see any gaps in the box, it is estimated that the gaps in the box have already been filled by the flesh and blood of spiders, and they can't be seen from the appearance at all. However, Chen Ziyang found a different place on one side of the box.

After the Xuanming Ancient Sword was scraped, almost all the spider flesh and blood on the box were scraped off, but there was still a piece of spider flesh left on a relatively wide surface of the box, and the surface of this piece of spider flesh and blood was flat with the surface of the box, so that is to say, the original box should be concave, so the spider flesh and blood at the groove would remain after the Xuanming Ancient Sword was scraped.

Chen Ziyang hurriedly used the tip of the Xuanming Ancient Sword to pick it up in this place, and as small pieces of spider flesh were picked out from the surface of the box, the original appearance of the groove was revealed.

The grooves on the box were round, and there were some raised patterns inside, and Chen Ziyang knew at a glance that these patterns were the same patterns on the belly of the seal spider and the buckle of the gold belt. After comparing the size of the circular groove, he suddenly became enlightened.

After hurriedly finding the belt buckle of the king of the ancient kingdom of Sumi from his body, Chen Ziyang put the belt buckle on the groove on the box for a pair, and then he pressed the belt buckle violently, the concave and convex pattern on the belt buckle and the pattern in the groove of the box just matched, Chen Ziyang judged by his feel that the two had been perfectly combined together.

At this time, the back of the belt buckle is exactly level with the surface of the box, and the raised buckle behind the belt buckle is exposed, and it seems that this buckle should be used to rotate the belt buckle. Seeing this, Chen Ziyang couldn't help but admire the wisdom of the ancients.

This belt buckle should be the key to open this box, and the belt buckle is hidden seamlessly, usually it doesn't look like it can be seen at all, only when the belt buckle and the box are combined, the buckle behind the belt buckle will become a rotating handle, this design is really exquisite.

Grabbing the buckle behind the belt buckle, Chen Ziyang rotated it vigorously, but the belt buckle didn't move, so he had to try again in the opposite direction, but the belt buckle still didn't turn. It seems that due to the passage of time, the gap in the knob on this box has been blocked by patina or spider flesh.

With no choice, Chen Ziyang had no choice but to take off the gold belt buckle again, and then he used the tip of the Xuanming Ancient Sword to draw vigorously around the circular groove on the box, slowly clearing out the debris filled in the gaps.

After embedding the gold belt buckle into the box for the second time, Chen Ziyang grabbed the handle of the gold belt buckle and rotated it vigorously, he exerted all his strength, and his face was flushed.

Then Chen Ziyang, who grinned his teeth, screamed fiercely, and at the same time exerted all his strength. Suddenly, he felt his grip on the buckle loosen violently, and the handle behind the gold buckle finally turned under his vigorous twisting.

There was a gap in the box, but it was still not fully opened, and the gap was full of debris. Chen Ziyang took off the gold belt buckle, took it in his hand and took it a little, and after looking at it a few times, he threw it to Yang Lei, who was standing aside, and said:

"Keep a souvenir, this thing can't be sold for a price, don't dream of your money." After saying this, Chen Ziyang continued to clean up the gap in the box with the sword of the Xuanming Ancient Sword, because he was afraid that forcibly priing open the box would damage the Xuanming Ancient Sword, so he could only use this time-consuming method, and did not dare to directly pry the box open with the Xuanming Ancient Sword.

"What's wrong? Why can't it be sold at a price? As soon as he heard that this gold belt buckle was not worth anything at all, Yang Lei hurriedly asked.

"Gold is soft, I used so much strength just now this belt buckle is not deformed, it is obvious that the inside of the belt buckle is not gold at all, it is very likely that it is just gold-plated, carefully put it away, maybe it will be useful later."

After listening to Chen Ziyang's words, Yang Lei thought for a while, and then he put the belt buckle into his mouth and bit it down hard. After the "oops" sound, Yang Lei covered his teeth and stared at the belt buckle.

After showing a hint of unwillingness in his eyes, Yang Lei casually put the belt buckle into his pocket, and his action of putting away the belt buckle at this time was very different from the previous behavior of carefully putting away the belt buckle.

The clutter in the cracks of the box is not too much, and it is relatively easy to clean up, after drawing two circles with the Xuanming Ancient Sword back and forth, Chen Ziyang opened the box violently. Looking at the contents of the box, he scratched his head.

Before the box was opened, Chen Ziyang had guessed that the things in the box should be left by the old king of the ancient kingdom to control the seal spider or deal with the dryad, so it should be some tools or some weapons, but Chen Ziyang never thought that the thing in the box he had seen a few times before turned out to be a musical instrument.

What was left behind by the old king of the ancient kingdom to hide in the spider's body turned out to be a bronze chime. Probably because it has been kept in the box and has not been damaged by external forces, although the surface of the chime has a layer of green patina, this chime is very well preserved.

"Holy! Bells! Chimes from 2ooo years ago! Is it the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period? I've seen it on TV, and this kind of thing can fetch a lot of money! Eryang, let's go! Yang Lei shouted in surprise on the side.

“！！！ Can your head think of anything else but money? Chen Ziyang said disdainfully. Looking at the chimes in front of him, he made a difficulty.

The volume of this bell is not too large, the length of the bell body is only about 3o centimeters, and there is a handle more than ten centimeters long on the top of the bell, which should be used to hang the bell on a wooden shelf. How exactly should this chime be used? Chen Ziyang couldn't think of an answer.

The size of the chime is not large, obviously it is not used as a weapon, if it is really used as a weapon, this chime is not as good as the Xuanming Ancient Sword in his hand, is it not used for percussion? Recalling the previous scene in the Bohai Palace, Chen Ziyang came up with such an idea, but he felt that it was not possible at all.

The huge golden bell hanging in the Bohai Palace is very large, and the sound after ringing is also very loud, so the sound after the bell rings will resonate with the mountain, resulting in the collapse of the mountain.

But it is precisely because the volume of the golden bell is very large, even if ordinary people ring it, it will not play a role, if it is not for the huge strength of the eight-armed King Kong sculpture, and the bell is ringing the heavy hammer that it has been spinning in its hand, it is likely that the golden bell will not ring at all.

Chen Ziyang, who had no clue, decided to give it a try, after all, when he was in Li Zhuo's tomb, the small golden bell that fell to the ground was not too large, but it still played a certain role.

Grabbing the handle above the chime with his hand, Chen Ziyang took the chime out of the box, and suddenly something fell out of the chime and fell into the box.

Chen Ziyang turned his head to look, and now this is a cylindrical bronze stick like a small rolling pin, which should be used to strike the chime, and it seems that this stick was placed in the hollow bell body of the chime before.

After picking up the bronze stick, Chen Ziyang took it with his hand, this bronze stick was even heavier than the chime, it seemed that it should be solid, and the whole body was cast in bronze.

Holding the stick in one hand and the chime in the other, Chen Ziyang carefully looked back and forth between the two, and then he now has a circular mark on the side of the bell body, which is obviously higher than the bell body and the pattern on the bell body, which should be used for striking.

Raising the chimes high, Chen Ziyang struck the chimes tentatively. Since he did not know the strength of the strike, he did not dare to use too much force, for fear of damaging the chime and the stick in his hand, he only used five points of his own strength when striking.

Probably because of the reason for grasping the handle of the chime with his hand, the bronze stick did not make a crisp sound when it struck the chime, but made a dull sound.

While tapping, Chen Ziyang kept looking at the seal spider lying on the ground, wanting to see how the spider would react after his tapping. But when the sound passed, the seal spider remained motionless on the ground, unresponsive to the sound coming out of the chime.

"Am I not striking hard enough?" Looking at the motionless seal spider, Chen Ziyang's heart felt a sense of loss, and at the same time, there was also worry. In case this chime is relatively old because it has been stored for too long, it has lost its proper role, and it is impossible to control the seal spider at all, then he will have no reliance on dealing with the dryad.

After increasing the strength in his hand, Chen Ziyang struck the bell with a bronze stick again, this time the sound of the bell was significantly louder, and a slight vibrato could be heard after the strike, but the vibrato lasted for a very short time.

Seeing that the seal spider was still unresponsive, Chen Ziyang was a little anxious. When he was striking just now, he had already exerted eight points of strength, if he used all his strength to strike, Chen Ziyang was afraid that he would break the chime in his hand, or break the bronze stick in his hand, if that was the case, it would really be over.

Just when Chen Ziyang hesitated whether his method of using the chimes was correct and was about to strike the chimes again, Yang Lei, who was standing on the side, pushed his shoulder and said, "Er Yang, look there!" ”

Looking in the direction pointed by Yang Lei, Chen Ziyang saw that Yang Lei was pointing to the ancient tree in the center of the clearing, but the white pillar of light above the ancient tree was still very bright, and the soul was still being sucked into the ancient tree in a steady stream, and there was nothing strange about it.

"Just now I seem to have seen that when you rang the chime, the white pillar of light moved, but I also saw it out of the corner of my eye, not very sure." Yang Lei said hesitantly.

"Could it be that this chime is not used to control the seal spider, but can directly have an effect on the ancient tree?" Thinking of this, Chen Ziyang looked in the direction of the ancient tree, and at the same time rang the bell again with the same force as just now.

As the third bell rang, Chen Ziyang suddenly saw that the root of the white pillar of light hanging above the ancient tree shook significantly, and several souls broke away from the pillar of light, but before these souls could float away, they were sucked into the pillar of light again, and the pillar of light returned to normal.

Seeing this, Chen Ziyang's eyes lit up, he and Yang Lei glanced at each other invariably, and then both of them showed surprised expressions on their faces.

"It turns out that this chime is used like this, this chime can work directly on those souls!" Chen Ziyang said excitedly, and then he aimed the chime in the direction of the ancient tree, increased the strength of his hand, and rang the chime fiercely.

"When...... Buzz......" With the sound of this chime, the white pillar of light shook violently again, and more souls broke away from the pillar of light than the last time, and this time these souls were a little farther away from the pillar of light.

"Haha......" Seeing the miraculous effect of the chime, Chen Ziyang laughed, he hurriedly took two steps closer in the direction of the ancient tree, and then rang the chime continuously.

"Dangdangdang......" Because Chen Ziyang struck very quickly, under his continuous striking, the chime made a series of rapid sounds, and with these sounds, the white pillar of light above the ancient tree shook violently.

After two consecutive taps before, the souls that were separated from the pillar of light were all sucked back into the pillar of light, but this time the frequency of Chen Ziyang's tapping became faster and faster, one after another, and before these souls that were detached from the pillar of light were re-absorbed into the pillar of light, they were shocked further away from the pillar of light by the sound of the chime.

And with Chen Ziyang's continuous tapping, more and more souls broke away from the pillar of light, and a large number of souls spread out in all directions, these souls could not gather together, the color of the white pillar of light became lighter and lighter, and the pillar of light became thinner and thinner.

In this way, with Chen Ziyang's continuous tapping, the white pillar of light composed of souls above the ancient tree was finally completely broken.
