Chapter 816 Precursor of Split(1/2)
Chapter 816: A precursor to division, turquoise-engraved gold coffin screen
"Appreciate further details!"
"It's a cultural relic from the Xia Kingdom. It's relatively old, but it's not of much use to you."
Ning Fan shook his head and did not explain in too much detail. He waited for Annie to shift her attention before telling others about this thing.
The reactions of several people were different, but they were somewhat similar.
They all came closer to look at the Qin Ding.
As the incense-sealing Zen tripod used by Emperor Qin Shihuang, this tripod cannot be compared with Jiuding, but it is not far behind.
Ning Fan checked the artifact and found that the aura on it was still there, indicating that it had not been used at all.
The purpose of the free masons to seize this cauldron is even more worth pondering.
"Tell me, why do you want this?"
"I don't know." 11 didn't hide anything, but he didn't have any valuable information.
"After receiving the mission, I came here to find a tripod. Someone sent me the specific location and appearance. I'm just here to carry out the mission."
I didn’t hear anything wrong with the questions asked in 11.
The others had no idea, but Ning Fan continued to look through other things in the bag, and finally stopped on a compass that was only the size of a fingernail.
"What's this?"
"Point to... compass, prepared wilderness survival equipment if you are worried about encountering an accident."
"Is it?"
Ning Fan smiled and took out the compass and laid it flat on the ground.
The hands were spinning crazily and showed no signs of stopping.
"The magnetic field here is turbulent. It was a device added later to prevent electromagnetic detection. There should be no results."
11 breathed a sigh of relief and quickly looked at Annie seriously: "If it weren't for this setting, I wouldn't be able to stay here."
"Good acting skills."
Ning Fan smiled slightly, picked up the compass again and placed it on 11.
The next second, the spinning compass suddenly stopped, shook a few times and then pointed firmly at Ning Fan.
"Take it."
Ning Fan handed the Qin Ding to Wang Duoyu, and the compass followed him, and he would do the same if he changed people.
It wasn't until Wang Duoyu walked ten meters away that the pointer started to rotate randomly. The farther away it was, the faster it rotated. When it got closer, it had a specific direction.
"Is this thing a spirit?"
Everyone had never seen anything like this before, and they were all amazed.
"No, it just has special settings inside." Ning Fan took the compass again and looked at 11: "You say it, or should I tell it for you?"
Ning Fan drew out his dagger with a stern look in his eyes.
"I said!"
…
After a long while, Ning Fan took apart the compass and saw the micro-engraved formations inside. The materials used were quite good, and they were all the highest-grade jade.
"luxury!"
Wang Duoyu couldn't help but sigh.
At first glance, this material looks like it is cut from the best jade, not just any leftovers.
"To be able to use such materials to make equipment is worthy of being a free mason!"
"Financially free mason?" Banliangjin heard the connotation and confirmed it again. Seeing Wang Duoyu suppressing a smile, he rolled his eyes.
Except for Anne, who was not a native of Xia Country, everyone present laughed because of the pun.
"It is used to track items. Now it is automatically locked on the First Emperor's Cauldron."
Ning Fan saw the principle of this formation and threw it aside.
It was indeed much better than ordinary things, but it was just a simple substitute. There was no need for him and Ban Liangjin to study this.
Wang Duoyu wasn't interested either. He was just looking for treasures for fun and just followed Ning Fan around.
However, Tang Qisheng and Huang Haoying listened to the principle and were still studying it, and even wanted to transform it into equipment for detecting cultural relics with the most Qi.
"You can try, but there's no guarantee of success."
Ning Fan explained a few words and looked at other cultural relics again.
The wooden treasure was obtained, and Qin Shihuang obtained the Zen tripod. These cannot be the only treasures of the Adams family.
The previous operations were all about finding key things, but now we really have to start picking up the missing items.
Ning Fan looked at Annie and decided to negotiate the matter amicably.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Annie speaking on her own initiative.
"Mr. Wang, this time you helped me solve the danger and saved my life. If there is something you like in this treasure house, just take it away as a reward, okay?"
"Within ten items, I can make the decision."
Ning Fan frowned.
"Fifty pieces."
"make a deal."
Anne smiled slightly, with a sly look on her lips.
"Scheming!"
Ning Fan sighed secretly and said nothing.
Originally, he planned to get a hundred cultural relics, but the ten items just now still disrupted his rhythm.
But as I saw from above, the number of high-quality cultural relics is limited, and the difference between fifty and one hundred is not much, which is good news.
"Actually, you can have a few more. They are my extra gifts for you."
Anne added, her eyes falling on 11.
"Anyway, the free masons came in, damaged and took away the cultural relics, and we can't search them for the time being."
"good."
Ning Fan understood the hint, waved to Tang Qisheng and others to pick things, and leaned over to ask again about the 11 Free Masons and the Skull and Bones Society.
He always felt that the battle between these two major forces was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
If it's just for the cultural relics, there's no need to risk your life to come to the Addams Family's treasure trove. The Free Masons' headquarters definitely has enough cultural relics for the ceremony.
But if it's something else, it's a bit strange.
After thinking about it, an inexplicable idea came to Ning Fan's mind.
Do the Free Masons want to split up the Addams Family?
The Star-Spangled Nation has been established for so long, and the family with the most vested interests is the Adams family. The Skull and Bones Society has also made enough profits with this big leg.
Also a secretive organization, the Free Masons and other organizations do not want to see the vast majority of interests controlled by these people.
It makes sense to do something.
This behavior seemed instantly familiar.
This seems to be the case when the two royal heirs of Toyo Kingdom compete for the position of King of Heaven.
It seems that the world is generally similar.
If he hadn't seen it in person, Ning Fan wouldn't have believed in such an important event as a royal family. His tactics would be to arrange dump trucks, hinder work, and lie about intelligence.
After all, even ordinary domestic business wars have evolved to the high-tech method of finding cleaners to unplug the power supply in the computer room.
It can only be said that human beings have their own hustle and bustle.
Thoughts flashed through his mind, and Ning Fan didn't think too much. These things were all...
Ning Fan suddenly stopped and raised the corner of his mouth.
"Miss Anne, I have a new commission here, which should be of great interest to you."
"What?"
"Bless your Yedangsi family to survive the division."
"What kind of joke are you talking about!"
Anne Adams burst out laughing.
"Mr. Wang, I admit that you are professional in the field of treasure appreciation and have collected and appreciated many cultural relics, but your political literacy is indeed not high."
Annie's expression was a little funny.
"Our Adams family has ruled the Star-Spangled Kingdom for so many years, not just by a few people and the contents of these treasure rooms, but by the long-standing tradition of our Star-Spangled Kingdom."
"Unity, interests!"
"This is the eternal pursuit. Under this restriction, no one will want to divide us. This is impossible!"
Ning Fan didn't speak, just looked at Annie.
"In that case, just pretend that I didn't say anything about it."
Anne was silent for a while, then suddenly frowned: "What is the probability that they want to split us up?"
To be continued...
