Chapter 7 Doubts are rife
After three rounds of wine, as soon as everyone's wine glasses were put on the table, they saw a white light that stabbed people unable to open their eyes. When the white light dissipated and looked around, everyone was still standing in the miniature version of the Jinluan Palace, as if they had just woken up from a dream. The place where the crystal coffin was placed was empty, only the dragon ball with a green shimmer was spinning in mid-air, and looking at its rotating trajectory, it was clearly a cursive dragon character.
The dragon ball is spinning faster and faster, and it is getting brighter and brighter, dazzling everyone, with the acceleration of the rotation speed of the dragon ball, the red dragon that was originally dormant in Zhao Mingding's dantian slowly woke up, as if sensing the existence of the dragon ball, it shook its head and tail, rushed out of Zhao Mingding's mouth, turned into a fire dragon, and pounced towards the dragon ball. The dragon ball saw the fire dragon pounce, the speed of rotation was faster, and it seemed to be desperately escaping, but when a deafening dragon groan was heard, the fire dragon pounced, opened its mouth, took the dragon ball in its mouth, and spit it out again, and so on and so on five times, and then it went down, and turned into a small dragon again, got into Zhao Mingding's mouth, returned to the dantian, and lay dormant.
Everything was calm again, but everyone looked at Zhao Mingding's eyes and was extremely shocked, and it took a long time to come back to their senses and say hello to Zhao Mingding.
"Who?" Suddenly, Zhao Mingding broke off his drink, flew to the door of the palace, only to see a figure flashed, and disappeared, Zhao Mingding looked for a moment, picked up a one-yuan coin-sized thing from the ground at the entrance of the palace, and looked closely, it was a round badge, the back was a pin, the center of the front was slightly raised in an arc, the background was jet black, and in the middle was a slightly raised golden swastika, which looked the same as the swastika on the chest of the Buddha statue, and the swastika designed by Hitler was just the opposite, There is a slightly raised golden English New U around the perimeter
ited Natio
s, which surrounds that swastika. The English literal meaning: the new United Nations.
"The new United Nations? What does it mean?" everyone looked at each other.
"Work in pairs, split up and look for someone to see if anyone has come in?" Zhao Mingding thought for a moment and said, "Zhang Bao and Huang Li will go to the left in a group, and He Caishan and I will go to the right in a group, and we will come back here in ten minutes to gather." ”
The shrunken Jinluan Hall was an independent main body, and Zhao Mingding and He Caishan went around from the right, about 200 meters away, and met Zhang Bao and Huang Li behind the hall. Ten zhang outside the hall is a smooth cliff, towering into the clouds, there is a small hexagonal tower with a height in front of the cliff, made of stones, there is a small stone man kneeling on the top of the tower, slightly bowing his head, his hands are raised above his head, holding an old-fashioned key with a black body about 20 centimeters long, the key body is straight, about two centimeters wide, about one centimeter thick, there is a hexagonal through hole at the tail end, the front end is cocked at a forty-five degree angle, the upturned part is three centimeters high, two-thirds of the middle is hollowed out, leaving one-third to be connected with the left and right sides, at first glance, like the keys of a giant nail clipper.
Zhao Mingding took the old-fashioned key in his hand and looked at it for a while, and then passed it to Zhang Bao, Zhang Bao gave it to He Caishan after reading it, and finally Huang Li, who didn't know what it was, so he returned it to Zhao Mingding and put it in his backpack.
"Judging from the direction shown by the compass, this palace is the northernmost and highest point of this ancient city, since Brother Jiu saw a suspicious figure just now, for the sake of insurance, it is better for us to leave here as soon as possible." He Caishan observed the compass in his hand and said, "Before you go out, determine the location of that vault." ”
According to Zhang Bao's description, He Caishan, with the assistance of the compass, quickly found the location of the vault. The small stone door where Zhang Bao escaped had been blocked and could no longer be opened, but fortunately He Caishan found the entrance elsewhere and moved the position of the eight stones on the ground, and saw a stone door on the cliff slowly open, revealing a hole for only one person to enter, He Caishan lit a small pine block brought by him, threw it into the hole, and waited for a while to see that the pine block was still burning, so he turned on the flashlight and walked in, leaving Zhang Bao outside to guard the entrance of the cave.
Entering the cave, after walking more than ten steps, He Caishan opened a stone door again, and in the rolling sound, Zhao Mingding had already held the pistol in his hand, just in case, only to see ten thousand golden lights emanating from the hole, shaking people can't open their eyes. He Caishan made a gesture of pause, walked in alone, and drummed on the stone wall at the door for a while, and then beckoned everyone in.
This is a stone chamber, about twenty meters long, about ten meters wide, about two meters high, about two-fifths of the space in the middle of the stone chamber is full of gold bricks, about one meter and a half high, each of the four corners stands a samurai in golden armor, holding a strong sword, about fifty golden arrows are inserted in the quiver on his back, it seems that these warriors are manipulated by the mechanism, and they are broken by He Caishan at this moment, so they are still and no longer as aggressive as Zhang Bao saw at the beginning. The walls of the stone room are hewn into wall cabinets, where some books and miscellaneous items are placed, and in the center of the roof is six egg-sized night pearls, which emit a soft light, making the room as bright as day.
In the face of Chongbao, everyone was stunned for a while, relatively speechless, and after a while, they came to their senses and stepped forward to visit. Zhao Mingding picked up a gold brick, only to see that it was rectangular, about 10 centimeters long, about 5 centimeters wide, about 3 centimeters high, and there were five words engraved in the middle of the gold brick: 50 taels of pure gold; In the lower left corner, there are five small characters: Xiangxing First Year System, which is exactly the same as the gold brick that Zhang Bao showed him at the beginning. Zhao Mingding circled around the pile of gold bricks, and saw that there was indeed a missing piece in the corner of the blocked small doorway, and there were also a few golden arrows lying on the ground at the door, everything was exactly the same as what Zhang Bao said at the beginning.
Zhao Mingding called Zhang Bao in and asked him what to do with the gold bricks. Zhang Baodao: "It's better for you to keep these gold bricks first, and then make plans when you need to use the money." He Caishan also nodded in agreement, Huang Li naturally obeyed Zhang Bao's arrangement, and had no opinion. Zhao Mingding saw that everyone agreed, so he didn't say more, his left hand was bluffing, the tiger's mouth was facing down, the mouth of the Qiankun bag was opened, and the right hand picked up the gold bricks one by one and put them in, it took about a meal to finish loading those gold bricks, and then the right hand covered the left hand, and when he moved away, the gold bricks became without a trace, as if magic. Zhang Bao and He Caishan both stroked their palms and laughed, and they all praised it, only Huang Li was incomprehensible, and she didn't know why, she looked at Zhao Mingding with a look of surprise, and wanted to say goodbye.
"Alright, let's withdraw!" Zhao Mingding saw that He Caishan opened the small door that was blocked because of Zhang Bao, and took the lead and walked out, Zhang Bao and Huang Li followed, He Caishan blocked the front and rear doors, and then came out and followed behind. Along the way, everyone was cautious, guarding against the suspicious figure before, until they came out of the cave and were safe and sound, and then they breathed a long sigh of relief.
Back at Zhang Bao's residence, it was already dusk, and after the meal, Zhao Mingding took out five gold bricks, one for each person, and the extra one was given to Huang Li's mother as a souvenir. According to the size of the stone chamber, Zhao Mingding roughly estimated that even if those gold bricks only occupy two-fifths of the space of the entire stone chamber, there are 160 cubic meters, and the weight of each cubic meter of gold is 19.32 tons, then there are 3091.2 tons, excluding the voids, there are at least 2000 tons of gold, according to the gold price of 300 yuan per gram, these 2000 tons of gold are worth 11.6 trillion yuan...... Seeing this, Zhang Bao walked up to him, stretched out his palm and shook it a few times in front of his eyes, and said with a smile: "What's the matter, the money is obsessed?" Zhao Mingding smiled and said: "According to the price of gold, we have a lot of wealth now, if we calculate it according to the value of antiques, I don't know how many times it can be increased?" Suddenly remembered the beautiful antique expert Peng Xiaoye, so he dialed her phone, and just as she had time at the moment, she took a few things and put them in her backpack, and took Zhang Bao and He Caishan straight to her shop.
At that time, at the beginning of the lanterns, Peng Xiaoye, who was slightly powdered, saw Zhao Mingding and his entourage enter the shop, and hurriedly got up to greet her. As he spoke, he led everyone inside, and at the same time waved his hand slightly, and the two men in the shop pulled down the gate of the shop and closed it, no longer receiving guests.
Peng Xiaoye is tall, with apricot eyes and peach cheeks, cloud temples lightly, obliquely inserted a chopstick-thick jade phoenix hairpin with a crystal green body, step by step, swaying and colorful, and a crystal clear three-color jade bracelet on Hao's wrist sets off her extraordinary. Through two doors, came to the inside, facing the door is a row of Bogu shelves, on which there are some bottles and cans and gold, silver, copper and iron, on the wall on the left hangs a picture of a hairpin lady of Zhou Fang in the Tang Dynasty, on the right is a large safe, glowing with a faint blue light, in the middle is a large ebony tea table, surrounded by six circle chairs, on the circle chair on the right side of the main seat sits a purple dress is flying on the Apple laptop with ten fingers flying 28 beauties, seeing everyone come in, busy closing the laptop and getting up to greet each other, said with a smile: "Your guest is coming, Welcome, welcome! Zhao Mingding and his entourage hurriedly replied: "You're welcome!" ”
"This is Luo Yuhua, our company's financial director." Peng Xiaoye said with a smile, "She is my right-hand man, but whenever a distinguished guest comes, she will accompany me." While speaking, he invited Zhao Mingding and his party to sit down, but he sat next to Zhao Mingding, let Luo Yuhua sit in the main seat, and began to make tea for everyone.
Luo Yuhua took a set of purple clay pots and purple sand cups from the Bogu shelf behind him, and took out a cake of Lao Banzhang Pu'er tea, and began to boil water, ready to make tea.
Zhao Mingding heard Peng Xiaoye's introduction to Luo Yuhua, and knew that this woman was her confidant, and there was no need to shy away from everything. Seeing this, Peng Xiaoye took out a brocade box and put it on the table, so Zhao Mingding took out a gold brick from his backpack and put it in the brocade box, which emitted a soft luster under the illumination of the light.
Peng Xiaoye brought the brocade box to the table in front of him with both hands, looked down carefully, and was silent, everyone was quiet, only the sound of boiling water echoing in the room.
