The spring breeze is warm.

Chen Yang had only slept for four hours the night before, and the mysterious black shadow and the strange box made him sleepless.

Early in the morning, Chen Yang and Li Ran took the box to a lock-picking company, ready to open the box to see what was inside.

The two stood in front of the door of the unlocking company, and Li Ran raised his head and sighed: "My brother, can't you wait for me to wake up before coming out? ”

The door of the unlocking company is closed, and there are few people outside the door.

Chen Yang wrinkled his brows, his eyes were sore and sore: "Who knew they wouldn't open the door until ten o'clock?"

Li Ran pursed his mouth: "Then what should I do now? It's only eight o'clock, and it's going to be two hours!"

"Let's go have breakfast first!"

Chen Yang loosened his shoulders and looked tired.

The location of the lock company is not very good, there are not a few breakfast shops, only two or three very small shops selling breakfast, but the things are very complete.

"Boss, bring me two cups of soy milk, four fried dough sticks, four steamed buns, and a sour radish!"

"Okay, wait a minute!"

Li Ran stood in front of the breakfast shop and picked out a few things.

Chen Yang sat on a low stool, as if he hadn't eaten breakfast like this for a long time.

In the past, when I was on the construction site, I often bought a few of these breakfasts, ate them on the excavator, and started to work after eating.

At nine o'clock in the morning, there were more pedestrians coming and going, and Li Ran touched his stomach: "Ah, so full, comfortable!"

"Young man, I think your box is very delicate, where did it come from?"

An elderly man suddenly stepped forward and asked.

Chen Yang glanced at it and said with a light smile: "Old man, do you know this box?"

The old man was in good spirits and laughed: "I won't tell you, I'm an antique lover, I see that your box seems to be some years old, so ask!"

Chen Yang straightened up and asked seriously, "Old man, can you tell what age this box is?"

"This..."

The old man lifted his reading glasses, leaned over to the box, looked at it carefully, and suddenly said in surprise: "This box... It's hundreds of years old, right?"

Hearing this, Li Ran immediately asked, "Old man, you said this box is really an antique?"

The old man smiled: "Yes, this box is exquisitely carved, the material is high-quality, but the double dragon play beads have another way, it is estimated that it should be three or four hundred years old, young man, where did you get this box from?"

"Really? I thought it was an urn!"

Li Ran was surprised.

The old man observed the box and said solemnly: "Judging from my years of experience, this box is not a vulgar thing, if you guess correctly, there should be a green jade key to match this box." ”

Chen Yang immediately asked, "Old man, how did you know that this box needs a green jade key?"

The old man touched his goatee and said arrogantly: "Haha, I won't tell you, I have studied many ancient locks, and the people in the past were really very wise, and all kinds of locks could be made." ”

The old man asked again: "If you don't have that green jade key, it is estimated that you can't open it, did you bring the key?"

"Nope!"

Li Ran shook his head: "This is how it was when we got the box, without the key, we couldn't open the box!"

"Forgive me for taking the liberty of opening the box, you can leave it to me to study, and maybe you can open it. ”

The old man's eyes were full of curiosity about the box.

Chen Yang and Li Ran glanced at each other, Li Ran tilted his head and muttered in Chen Yang's ear: "This old man can't be a liar, right?"

Chen Yang glanced at him: "Old man, we don't know the origin of this box yet, so we have no intention of handing it over to others for the time being." ”

"Grandpa..."

In the distance, a girl wearing a white jacket and denim trousers suddenly appeared, staring at the old man with a pair of big black eyes: "Why did you run out again, didn't you say that you should not run around, Mom should talk about you again in a while!"

Li Ran's eyes widened instantly: "Old man, why doesn't your granddaughter look like you at all?"

The beauty is smiling like a flower, her long black hair is floating around her waist, and her long legs are standing straight, her skin is fair and tender, which makes people feel like a fairy.

"I'll just come out for breakfast, and your mother will take care of it too?"

The old man snorted: "I'm not Alzheimer's, your mother thinks I'll get lost all day long, I think she's thinking about fart!"

The beauty came to her, her delicate facial features were very good-looking, and she smiled slightly: "I'm sorry, my grandfather has disturbed you, forgive me!"

Chen Yang smiled indifferently: "It's okay, the old man is just chatting with us, nothing to disturb." ”

"Grandpa, let's go back first, otherwise Mom will be in a hurry again in a while. ”

The beautiful woman held the old man's wrist and spoke softly.

The old man's face was displeased, and he said with a serious expression: "I just met a good baby, you still don't let me have a good time?"

"Grandpa~"

The beauty muttered, glanced at Chen Yang, and was a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, my grandfather was an explorer when he was young, working in a museum, and now that he is retired, he hasn't been able to get rid of his hobby of antiques, which makes the two of them laugh!"

"Hey, it's okay, it's okay, the old man is knowledgeable, has excellent hobbies, and knows a lot more than us!"

Li Ran waved his hand and smiled earnestly.

Chen Yang pursed his lips and smiled: "It's okay, the old man is just chatting with us." ”

"Grandpa, let's go back first!"

The beautiful woman supported the old man.

The old man snorted reluctantly, and then took out a yellowed business card from his pocket: "Young man, if you are interested, you can come to me, and we will study it together!"

"Okay!

Taking the yellowed business card, Chen Yang glanced at it, and then found the information on the business card.

It turned out that the old man's surname was Yang, his name was Yang Zhenhua, and he was a historical explorer of the former strategic cooperation between China, and the business card was printed by the Ruishi Museum.

Chen Yang put the business card in his pocket, looked at the time, it was almost ten o'clock, and went to the lock-picking company with the box.

"Sorry, we can't open this lock!"

The master who picked the lock was sweating profusely, and shook his head in annoyance: "I've never seen such a strange lock, the hammer can't be chiseled, you better go somewhere else and ask!"

"You can't open such a powerful lockpicking company?" Li Ran asked in surprise.

The lock picker's face was unbearable: "I can't hide it, I've been in the lock picking industry for almost 20 years, and there is no lock that I can't open, but this lock is really strange, how can it not be opened, you still go to find someone else to try it!"

The locksmith waved his hand.

Chen Yangjian frowned, so he had to leave the lock-picking company with the box.

Li Ran followed behind him: "The lock-picking company can't be opened, is it true that you want to go to the old man for help?"
