Chapter 5: The Millennial Ironwood Box (3)

The small room was furnished with several tables and chairs, calligraphy and paintings hung on the walls, fine porcelain was placed on the high stool, and on one of the chairs was a beautiful woman.

Mo Xiang was wearing a light blue slim dress, green silk like a waterfall, delicate face like a flower, when she saw Fang Ling coming, she got up and said sincerely: "Fang Gongzi came as promised, and the little woman is deeply grateful." ”

Fang Ling smiled slightly: "Miss Mo is serious, this word of gratitude will not be too late until I finish solving that problem." ”

Mo Xiang gestured to Xiao Lan on the side, only to see Xiao Lan walking over with an object, which was covered with a big red cloth, so he couldn't see what it was.

It wasn't until she placed the object on the table and removed the red cloth that Fang Ling realized that it was a foot-long wooden box.

It is said to be a wooden box, which is different from ordinary wooden boxes, each side is obviously made of a whole material from the texture, however, each side is neatly cut into small squares, and the whole box seems to be made of a bunch of boxy small wooden blocks.

"This is ......," Fang Ling couldn't help but be surprised.

Mo Xiang said: "This is the problem that plagues the little woman, because the little woman can't find the trick to open this box no matter what. ”

Fang Ling picked up the wooden box, and as soon as he started it, he felt heavy, and then looked at the wood color carefully, this texture, smelled the smell, and said with some surprise: "This is actually a thousand-year-old ironwood!"

The name of ironwood is that this kind of wood is as hard as steel, and ironwood is hard every year it grows, this thousand-year-old ironwood, the wood grain is deep, calm as ink, not to mention that it is difficult to move with ordinary swords, I am afraid that it is difficult to cut a knife on it with fire-patterned horns.

However, this ironwood box was actually cut into small squares by a sharp weapon and then put together, the gaps in its connection were impermeable, and no matter how thin the blade was, it was difficult to penetrate, and its craftsmanship was so strong that it was simply shocking, and Fang Ling was even more curious about what kind of things would be hidden in such a treasure box.

He asked, "Does Miss Mo know what's in this ironwood box?"

Mo Xiang shook his head slightly and said: "This is the ancestral heirloom of our Mo family, but we have not recorded in detail what is hidden in it, just because I don't know, I don't dare to come rashly, so I can only study where this opening is." ”

Fang Ling picked up the ironwood box and looked at it over and over, stretched out his hand and pressed on each small square, and found that each piece was very strong and hard, and there was no possibility of concave at all, not so much that it was a box, but a large piece of ironwood.

Mo Xiang said on the side: "The little woman also thinks that the switch must be on the small square, but it is definitely not possible to press a small square alone, so it may be 2, 3, 4 or more small squares at the same time. ”

Fang Ling nodded when she heard this, no wonder Mo Xiang had spent five years, it turned out that she was testing whether the combination of each block was a switch, since she had already made all her choices, then the method of opening this ironwood box was definitely not in the combination of quantity.
