Chapter 165: A Tie

"Let's go up and talk about it." Li Si said, "It's not clear if there is anything strange about this box, so let Weichen take it first." ”

Ying Zheng nodded and got on the wooden frame.

The two men in front, and several sergeants behind, returned to the surface of the alloy layer one after another.

When they got to the top, they all gathered around.

After looking at it for a long time, Ying Zhengcai asked, "Sir, are you sure this is a box, what will it be inside?" ”

Lees shook his head, then pulled the handle of the alloy box to the sides.

Motionless.

"That's weird." Meng Tian said on the side, "I don't see any locks on this box, why can't I open it?" ”

"If I'm not mistaken......" Lees didn't finish his sentence, but flipped it over.

"Sure enough." Li Si pointed to the lower right corner of the alloy treasure chest and said, "Your Majesty, look. ”

Since the sky was still not fully bright, Ying Zheng squatted down and watched closely.

I saw the direction of Li Si's finger, and a thumb-sized mark was engraved on the lower right corner of the alloy treasure chest.

"Dark Iron Snails?!" Ying Zheng recognized it at a glance, this was a mark that was unlocked with a black iron screw, and the outside of the bronze book he got was this mark.

"Is this box open with a snail?" Meng Yi asked.

Ying Zheng nodded and said, "You wait, the widow will go and get it." ”

Ying Zheng was just about to get up, but Li Si pulled him back.

"Slow down, Your Majesty." Li Si said, "The time has come, it's time for Wechen to go to the forbidden place to worship, and wait for Wechen to come back and open this box." ”

Ying Zheng thought for a while and said, "Then let's go together, if the widow stays here, I'm afraid I won't be able to suppress my curiosity." ”

Ying Zheng handed over the alloy treasure chest to Meng Tian, and then followed Li Si to the cave.

On the way, in the end, there were only two people, Ying Zheng and Li Si, and they didn't have to be careful when they talked.

"Sir, do you say that this box is really left by the predecessors of the Yellow Emperor?" Ying Zheng asked.

"Your Majesty, just from the place where this alloy box is buried, it can be seen that this box was buried in that place before smelting 'my weapon', otherwise how could it be directly below the alloy layer." Lees said.

"I thought of this, I just want to confirm it." Ying Zheng smiled innocently and said.

"However, to be able to bury this alloy box in such a secret place, it must be an extremely important thing to store inside." Li Si analyzed, "And nine times out of ten, it was the Yellow Emperor's predecessors who left it to you." ”

"Left to the widow?" Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows, quite surprised.

"Yes, has the king forgotten that only the Heavenly Inheritors can use alloy to make 'my device', this alloy box is hidden under the alloy layer, and it must be specially prepared for the Yellow Emperor's own descendants." Li Si continued to analyze.

"Well, Mr. has a point." Ying Zheng nodded slightly, "However, it doesn't have to be for the widow, it's just that the previous Heavenly Inheritors of the widow didn't use the 'self' weapon." ”

"That's true." Li Si said softly.

Ying Zheng's heart couldn't help but have the same question again, why didn't the previous Heavenly Inheritors use "my weapon", but when they came to themselves, they were directly allowed to use it, could it really be that he found the relationship with the oracle bone inscription?

"Rebirth: The Great Age of Waves"

Let's talk about it, the two have come to the entrance of the cave.

Today, only Jairus waited in the cave, and did not see the sunset.

"See seniors." Ying Zheng bowed his hand and bowed.

The blood-colored eyes of the eyes were still clear: "Yesterday you said that you were about to pierce through that alloy, how is it going now?" ”

"Back to my predecessors, before I came here, I just pierced through the alloy layer and started digging down." Ying Zheng said.

"Not bad. Presumably, you are going to quench the whole piece of alloy, right? Jairus asked.

The concept of alloy and quenching, it seems that Jairus has a deep understanding of its meaning.

"Exactly." Ying Zheng said, "The junior plans to quench all the alloy before the snow falls. ”

"Good." "If you only quench the alloy and don't move the other rock formations, then you don't have to come here every day to report it, just concentrate on it." As for the future, we will discuss it when the snow falls. ”

"Thank you, senior." When Ying Zheng heard that he didn't have to come here every day, his heart blossomed.

Jairus didn't say anything more, got up and left.

Ying Zheng and Li Si also exited the cave and returned the same way.

Because they were thinking about the alloy box in their hearts, the pace of both of them sped up a little.

When they returned to the Chinese military tent, they saw Meng Tian and Meng Yi staring at the alloy treasure chest, not knowing what they were thinking in their hearts.

Seeing that Yingzheng and Li Si were back, the two brothers got up to salute.

Ying Zheng casually found some errands and sent the brothers out.

Meng Yi squirmed and wanted to stay to see how Ying Zheng opened the box, but was still dragged away by Meng Tian.

Ying Zheng took out the black iron snail and placed it on top of the mark on the alloy box.

Click......

I heard a crisp sound, and a small gap seemed to pop out in the middle of the alloy box.

Li Si stood in front of Ying Zheng and opened the alloy box.

I saw that inside this alloy box, there was something similar to a black iron snail, but it was different from the black iron snail, looking at the material, it should not be black iron, but it was also made of alloy.

Li Si picked up the object and looked at it, and then handed it directly to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, this should also be a key similar to a dark iron snail." ”

"Keys?" Ying Zheng wondered, "Where will that be used?" ”

Li Si shook his head slightly, and then found that under the alloy key, there was also a tortoise shell, which was extremely similar to the one that Ying Zheng found in Qishan before.

Lees picked up the tortoise shell, and saw that there were many curved lines on it.

Li Si could see at a glance that this graphic was an ancient text, and only Ying Zheng could understand it.

"Your Majesty, look at this again." Li Si handed the tortoise shell to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng took the tortoise shell, looked at the ancient characters on it, and was about to read it aloud, but was stopped by Li Si.

"Your Majesty, you should read the content on this first." Li Si said, "Wechen is afraid that some of these can only be known by the Heavenly Inheritor. ”

Ying Zheng nodded and continued to look at the oracle bone.

As soon as he finished interpreting this first sentence, Ying Zheng frowned, and continued to look down more calmly.

On the top of this tortoise shell is a letter from the Yellow Emperor.

The content of the letter:

Succession of Heavenly Succession:

I am Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor.

At the moment you see this tortoiseshell, thousands of years may have passed.

This is the fate between us, and at this moment, you should also find the "me" and the place where the alloy is buried.

Presumably, you should also know that I have left precepts, and if I am not inherited by heaven, I will not know "my weapon", and even if I am inherited, it can only be used to eliminate war and dominate mountains and rivers.

Inside this chest is the key to my secret room. In that secret room, I treasure the insights of my life, which should inspire you.

As for the location, you should be able to find it.

And once you find it, maybe you'll have the same choice as me.

Signed, only written, Xuanyuan.

It turns out that this thing similar to a dark iron snail is really a key, the key to open the Yellow Emperor's secret room.

Ying Zheng felt that there was nothing to avoid in the Yellow Emperor's letter

place, so he read it to Lees again.

"Sir, what do you say the predecessors of the Yellow Emperor will keep in the secret room?" After reading the letter, Ying Zheng urgently asked the question in his heart.

Li Si pondered for a moment before saying: "Since it is the perception of the life of the predecessors of the Yellow Emperor, it must be the cognition of this 'self', the understanding of the "Yellow Emperor Sutra", the experience of alchemy, the experience of building the royal tomb, as well as the evaluation of the Nine Shadows and the feeling of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas". ”

Ying Zheng: "......"

The Yellow Emperor has done so many things in his life, and every single one of them is extremely unusual.

Li Si saw Yingzheng looking thoughtful, so he said with a smile: "And all this, the king will definitely experience it, perhaps, the feeling will be different from the predecessor of the Yellow Emperor." ”

Indeed, if different people do the same thing, they will definitely have different understandings and feelings.

"The widow is thinking about how many twists and turns and hardships this predestined fate will go through." Ying Zheng sighed lightly, "However, the world doesn't know about it, and the legends that are occasionally left behind are only a few words, and most of them are regarded as myths." ”

Li Si knew that Ying Zheng always had a knot in his heart, a knot that originated from selfish desires.

If a person is born into the family of the emperor, and has inherited the foundation of hundreds of years since he was a child, even if he has no ambitions, at least he can be pampered, but now he has to do a lot of thankless things, and these things are more difficult than the other.

"Your Majesty." Li Si looked at Ying Zheng and said with a firm gaze, "Maybe one day, you have reached the height of the Yellow Emperor's predecessors, then your own gains and losses of honor and disgrace will be light, as for how the current world and future generations evaluate themselves, what does it matter?" Since you have compassion for the world, don't be cynical. ”

"Sir reminds me." Ying Zheng nodded slightly, and his gaze returned to focus, "Any of the previous Tiancheng predecessors didn't do these things for the sake of fame and fame. ”

"Not bad." Li Si resolutely said, "Those who are ordained by heaven are born to save the world and help the people, and they are not people who compete for fame and fortune." Wang Shangke still remembers that when we first met, Weichen asked this question. ”

Ying Zheng's brows tightened, as if he was recalling the scene of his first meeting with Li Si.

"Weichen once asked the king if he had the ambition of the world." "And that's where the meaning lies. ”

As if he had figured out something, Ying Zheng grinned and said, "The widow has written it down, and he will never think about his own selfish desires in the future, and concentrate on completing everything." ”

"It must be fine!" Lees said vigorously.

"Hmm!" Ying Zheng nodded very hard, "By the way, sir, where did you say the secret room of the Yellow Emperor's predecessors?" Could it be ......"

"Yellow Mountain." The two men said at the same time, then looked at each other and laughed together.

After suppressing the laughter, Li Si picked up the alloy key and compared it with the dark iron snail next to him.

"Your Majesty, it seems that this key made of a total does not seem to have as many functions as the Xuantie snail, and it doesn't seem to have an outside compass." Lees said.

"Well, put it on the darkiron compass and see if it can be used." With that, Ying Zheng unfolded the Xuantie compass and spread it on the table.

Lees placed the alloy key on the compass.

However, there was no reaction at all.

Yes, this alloy key can't even change the shape of the pointer, how can it turn like a dark snail.

"It seems that it won't work, this key made of alloy seems to only work if it is unlocked." Ying Zhengluo said with regret.

"That's how it should be." Li Si said, "Then in order to make it easier to distinguish, the king should give this alloy key a name." ”

Ying Zheng thought about it for a while and said: "It's better to be simpler, it's better to call it an alloy snail." ”

"Uh...... Good. Li Si agreed a little reluctantly.
