"Hehe, what is it soon?" I replied with a smile
The sound made by the listening box is precious, and I can’t help but feel a little excited when I think that this time it didn’t come for nothing and there was almost no danger.
There is an ancient fish-shaped silver lock on the surface of the box, which is not as lucky as the box. The original white silver lock has been eroded into dark black by years.
The lock is not very delicate, not much bigger than the thumb. Batu grabbed the lock and pulled it, but Batu was upset by his own strength.
"Even a modern mechanical lock, Batu, can pull this small silver lock, and there is no sign of loosening."
Batu looked at the two fingers of the skin cut by the silver lock and said, "It’s a little weird. Even if the silver lock is strong for so many years, it should be broken. I didn’t expect it to be so strong."
After that, he pulled out a palm-sized cloth pocket from his waist and poured out all kinds of tools he relied on.
Carefully find a thin wire in this pile of sundries. Batu said, "This is my ancestral craft. My ancestors can’t do without a wire. Although my craft has fallen behind, there should be no problem in dealing with this ancient lock."
I didn’t know much about Batu’s ancestors. I didn’t realize that their family still had this craft.
Batu worked on the fine wire for a long time, but I was also worried. Finally, he sighed and threw the wire to the ground and said, "Mom, it seems that this lock is weird."
After hearing what he said, I immediately felt bitter in my heart. Since his family can’t play this lock, let alone a layman like me.
"That how to do? Otherwise, we’ll take the box out and find a way to do it. "Actually, it’s very against our rules to say so.
Faqiu Gate is a sect with strict rules. Everything found except property is not allowed to be taken out of the ground to see the light.
This is to protect ourselves and the integrity of the ancient tomb. After all, we are in this business for money, and we can’t take anything out except things that can be exchanged for money. If the national scientific research team finds that there is still something to study here, how can others study it if we take everything away and leave nothing inside?
Although this box looks strange, the wooden Hakone is worthless. Except for those precious trees, this box is obviously not the precious material we are familiar with.
"No, we can’t break the rules. If it doesn’t work, even if we destroy this box, there is at least something left here, isn’t there?" Batu refused my proposal without thinking.
"Well, see what else you can do?" I nodded and said
Batu slowly picked up a small steel bar ten centimeters thick with his little finger and said, "Then I’ll pry it."
Now, in addition to prying this silver lock, we are taking the whole box out of the box, and we will break the rules. If the old-timers know that we are not only having a hard time, but also will affect our third grandfather’s name, it is the best choice to choose this road to prying this box.
I nodded and promised, "Be careful not to destroy the contents."
"Don’t worry," Batu answered me while inserting the small steel bar into the small silver lock.
See Batu slightly dint small silver lock "click" a crunchy.
"yes!" Batu looked up at me and couldn’t wait to hit the small wooden box.
I rushed to hold his hand and said, "Don’t be careful."
In order to protect their treasures, ancient people not only built a machine in the tomb to put the treasure box inside, but also made it more sealed. Many people were killed by poisonous needles flying out of the box at the moment of hitting the box.
Batu was just so excited that I woke up and reacted. "How about this silver lock is still attached to the cover of the wooden box? We tied the silver lock with a rope to hide and pull the box."
"I think so, too." When Batu picked the lock just now, I kept trying to find out how to open the box cover.
Batu and I are both acute. I took the rope and waited for Batu to tie the lock two or three meters away.
After a while, Batu tied up and retreated to me and said, "Pull!"
I hold the rope hand and slightly force the lid of the small wooden box to turn over directly, and there is a black gas foaming at the mouth.
Batu wiped his forehead with cold sweat and said, "That was close. If you hadn’t held me, I might have been caught."
There is not much black fog, not much more than a person inhaling smoke. After more than ten seconds, the black fog disappeared completely.
Batu and I got up from the ground and carefully observed the contents of this box.
The wooden box looks gorgeous, but the contents are a bit unexpected. A man’s head is dark and I don’t know what it is lying quietly in the box.
Batu and I looked at each other, and our faces were full of doubts.
Slowly approaching the box, everything seemed very calm, and we were not in any danger.
I took out a pair of gloves from my pocket and put them on, then I reached for the dark thing in the wooden box to see what it was.
The ball is oval and heavy in my hand. I roughly estimated that it would take four or five pounds to take it out. Only after that did I find that it was not the surface of this thing. We saw that the black was just a layer of dead paper.
Batu also saw that this thing was just wrapped in a layer of paper, and his face was very happy. He grabbed this thing from my hand with gloves before I could speak, and at the same time he tore the surface paper very quickly.
"ah!" Batu tore two pieces of paper and suddenly shouted that black thing was thrown to the front, and the whole person was a little panicked.
I hesitated. I kept facing Batu. As soon as he threw that thing, it fell on me accurately. I aimed Batu at me in the direction of tearing the paper.
If you don’t look at it, don’t look at it closely. It’s not a treasure but a fresh head wrapped in paper.
I threw my head and gasped in shock.
"What’s the matter with you?" Zheng Xiaomei seems to be found here strange shouted to us.
Batu and I just came to our senses at this time, and their faces were full of incredible looks.
The black paper surface is a human head, but it looks so fresh, as if it had just been put here. It is the platform dust that tells us that this human head will never be just put here.
"What shall we do now? This thing is so weird that I feel a little scared! " Batu panting asked.
I vomited two mouthfuls of foul air, and I didn’t want to give up so much. I said to Batu, "It’s a pity that we should take a look at the paper first and leave now that we’re here."
Batu stammered, "But but but …!"
"Don’t be stupid. This thing should not be a dumpling, but it must have physical support. But it must be weird to put a human head here with such great efforts!" I shook my head and said
Maybe it’s because I said that Batu’s worried face disappeared and nodded and said, "It’s also that this head is not a dumpling, but it’s just preserved and not rotted!"
"It should be!" I nodded and said that at the same time, my body was a little closer to the head, and I reached out and slowly tore the black paper covering the head of the person.
After more than ten seconds, the black paper cover was pulled by me and the head was exposed to our eyes.
This person’s head is a woman who looks like a teenager. Her skin is white, her eyebrows are dark and her hair is bright. She has half of her neck and face, and there is no ornament on her head. She doesn’t even have a rope to tie her head. This makes it difficult for us to see the specific age of her life.
The woman looks very peaceful, not like death but more like sleeping.
Batu was transfixed until my elbow stabbed him twice before he opened his eyes and said, "This woman is familiar with me as if she had seen her somewhere."
"What? You met her? Don’t be ridiculous. This man may be older than your ancestors. How did you …! "
