137,137 Light and Shadow Bronze Butterfly(1/2)
After Tianzun tinkered for a while, he actually opened the copper ball.
Judging from the appearance, no one had noticed any gaps in the ball before, and the ball was quite heavy, so no one really thought it could be opened.
Looking at Tianzun holding the two hemispheres, Bai Yutang and Silver Demon King couldn't believe it. Tianzun actually took apart something in a non-violent way!
When the ball is opened, everyone naturally wants to watch it. What is hidden inside?
But what is disappointing is that this ball is hollow.
There is nothing in the opened copper ball.
But to say that you have gained nothing is not necessarily true... because the hollow part inside the copper ball is not spherical, but irregular, like the shape of a butterfly... The left and right halves are symmetrical, half a butterfly on one side, and together,
The hollow part is just big enough to fit a complete butterfly.
Everyone stared at the empty ball for a long time, and the same question arose - if a butterfly can be put in here, where is the butterfly?
Gongsun stretched out his hand and compared the size of the butterfly that could fit into the ball. He took his hand back and asked, "Didn't the fourth son say that there was a butterfly on the table in the stolen secret room of Yang Dalong's house?"
"Lingdie?!" Both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang remembered that if a butterfly were put into the glass cover, it would indeed be about the same size as this one.
At the mention of butterflies, Zhan Zhao recalled the corpses in the shape of butterflies that he saw when he was photographing Yang Dalong... Was that an alexandrite? Or was it a real corpse? He was a little unsure now.
Fifth Master took the two hemispheres from Tianzun's hand and weighed them first. There was a thick layer of copper between the butterfly outline and the ball, but it didn't feel solid.
Holding the ball and shaking it gently by his ear... Wu Ye handed the ball back to Tianzun, "This may be a mechanism key."
"Mechanism key?"
Fifth Master nodded, "The mechanism itself is the key. To use the key, you must first unlock the mechanism ball."
"Then, is it possible that Spirit Butterfly is the key to unlocking this mechanism? Put Spirit Butterfly in and put the ball back on the roof of Spirit Butterfly Palace. Will Spirit Butterfly Palace rise again?" Zhan Zhao asked.
"It's possible." The Fifth Master wasn't sure, "But there must be a reason for placing such a mechanism ball on the top of Lingdie Palace."
Everyone also thinks it makes sense.
"Then we still have to find Spirit Butterfly first." Zhan Zhao asked Fang Jingxiao, "Does the big thief Yellow Turtle Dove have no clues at all?"
"Speaking of the Yellow Spotted Dove," Fang Jingxiao said, "There are indeed some clues."
Everyone is waiting to hear it.
The answer given by Fang Jingxiao was, "There are no clues at all."
Everyone frowned - that means there are clues.
After all, Zhan Zhao had rich experience in catching thieves and solving crimes. He seemed to understand what Fang Jingxiao meant and asked, "Do you think there is no such person as Huang Turtle Dove?"
Fang Jingxiao nodded to Zhan Zhao - exactly what he meant.
"Is there any evidence?" Zhao Pu asked, "Is it just speculation?"
"I don't know if it counts as evidence." Fang Jingxiao smiled slightly, "Yellow Spotted Dove has been committing crimes for a while. In order to find him, I have arranged spies in all the residences of foreign officials in Shaoxing Prefecture."
Everyone thought for a while and nodded - indeed only Fang Jingxiao has this "ability", and his "eyes" are basically not discovered by others, and he is very pervasive and defenseless.
"Whether it was Yang Dalong's house or the warehouse of the Xunwu Park that was stolen, they were all key surveillance points. There were at least three to four birds monitoring all places in Shaoxing that might have been stolen, and there was no suspicious person at all.
"Fang Jingxiao said very confidently, "Birds have very good memories. I arranged for crows to keep an eye on these mansions, especially Yang Dalong's house. On the day he was said to be robbed, let alone the thief.
Not even a fly has come to his house, and no one in the family has gone out, so how did that thing disappear?"
Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao also felt that there was no trace of outsiders intruding into the secret room of Yang Dalong's house, and it was obviously an internal crime.
"If the family thief committed the crime, the people who came in and out of Xunwu Garden and Yang Mansion were not just a group of people, but several other people." Lu Yuelan summarized, "There have been various things that were circulated and bought and sold in the market that were originally from Lingdie Palace. It can be found
The harvests are basically fake, and all the treasures I have heard of have been miraculously stolen by this yellow turtle dove. This does not feel like a thief, but rather like someone is fishing for a big fish with a long-term goal.
.”
Everyone was lost in thought. Indeed, Huang Turtle Dove, the "thief", was suspicious in every aspect. However, Yang Along mistakenly believed that Zhao Zhen was Lord Cao's special envoy, and lied to him that something was lost?
Is this a trick that even the master can’t pull off?
In addition, when the fourth son entered the secret room, he did point to the stone platform and said there were butterflies. What he saw were colorful butterflies...
At this time, the boat had docked, and everyone took the ball and went home to find the fourth child, wanting to ask the children in detail about Psylocke. They happened to be picking up the children to go to the stadium to look at the rankings, and they didn't know whether the opponents in the preliminaries were difficult to beat or not.
beat.
…
Back at the Bai family manor, the four children who were exhausted yesterday were not in the house. Gongsun asked Bai Xia and said that they were all practicing on the court.
As Gongsun walked to the court, he looked at Zhao Pu - Liangchenmei had practiced three times, his dumplings were obviously "overworked" these days!
Zhao Pu pointed to his ear and motioned for him to listen.
Far away, I could hear the laughter of children coming from the other side of the stadium.
Gongsun pursed his lips, but he didn't have any objections. Indeed, Tuanzi had been very happy recently, even smiling when he went to bed at night.
Zhan Zhao and the others ran to the court and saw Ouyang, Long Qiaoguang and Zou Liangzheng practicing tactics with the three children.
Next to it stood a bluestone slab with various tactical diagrams drawn in white wax, as well as a set of code words.
The fourth boy is practicing hand gestures at the moment. Zhao Pu is a little speechless. Isn't this the code word for Zou Liang's men's hand gestures to ambush the team? Do you need to be so serious in a youth competition?
"Uncle Jiu, you don't understand this!" Zhao Zhen strolled over, and by looking at Zhao Pu's face, you could guess what he was slandering, "Every team has a code word!"
As he spoke, the emperor stretched out his hand.
Behind him, Nangong took out a booklet from his waist and handed it to him.
Zhao Pu had seen Nangong carrying a "book" since the morning, and he was wondering what it was? A martial arts secret book?
After taking the brochure handed over by Zhao Zhen and looking at it, Zhao Pu couldn't help but look at the sky and rolled his eyes.
Zhan Zhao and Lin Yehuo, who were holding teacups at the side, both came over to take a look, and saw that the booklet read "Analysis of the Enemy Situation in the Beautiful Scenery and a Hundred Victories Chapter".
"This is amazing." Zhan Zhao and Lin Yehuo both put down their cups and took them over to look through.
As soon as Zhao Pu saw the "book title", he knew that it was done by Dong Qianyi's spy team.
Zhan Zhao and Lin Yehuo complained, "It feels like there are no tactics and it's all gossip."
"Everyone has the same gestures."
Lin Yehuo learned to do it twice.
Gongsun reminded, "Put this ball aside for now. There is another ball. Study that one first!"
…
Zhan Zhao and the others all looked back at Tianzun.
On the way back, Bai Yutang studied all the way and discovered something very interesting.
Once the copper ball is closed, it is a tight fit and cannot be opened at all. Almost everyone has tried, and even the Demon King cannot open it. But when the ball is given to Tianzun, he can open it easily.
Therefore, Tianzun was very proud of himself along the way. On weekdays, Fifth Master probably always said that he was clumsy, but this time he laughed at his apprentice for being clumsy.
Everyone else also found it incredible that Tianzun, a person who couldn't even peel shrimps well... how could he do it?
Gongsun called the young man next to the court and asked him what the butterfly he saw in Yang's house that day looked like.
The little fourth son stretched out his two little hands and fluttered his sleeves, imitating the butterfly's wings, "Just a purple butterfly! Colorful!"
Everyone stared at Tuanzi silently, and Gongsun couldn't help hugging the couple and kissing him - his son is so cute!
"Is that a real butterfly or a fake?" Master Wu asked.
"It shouldn't be true." The fourth child thought carefully, "It will glow! It looks like a rainbow."
"Rainbow?" Everyone was even more confused.
"So it's not an entity?" Zhao Pu grasped the key point, "It's light and shadow?"
"Hmm." The fourth child touched his chin, "It looks a bit like it. It's transparent, glowing, and colorful. It flaps its wings like this. It's very beautiful!"
"Is it on the stage?" Zhan Zhao asked, "You said before that the butterfly flew away!"
The fourth son nodded, "Yes, it started flying, and then it was very bright above, and the butterfly flew to a very bright place and flew away!"
The fourth son described what he saw, and now everyone was not sure whether the butterfly had anything to do with the copper ball.
Tianzun handed the broken copper ball to his apprentice. The fifth master bent down and stretched out his hand to show it to the fourth son.
The fourth boy tilted his head - what is this?
"Is there any connection with the butterfly you saw?" Zhan Zhao also leaned over and leaned on the fifth master's shoulder and asked the fourth son, "If you think about it, any connection will work."
"Hmm..." The fourth son stretched out his hand to catch the ball. The fifth master told him "heavy" and put the ball into his hand. Zhan Zhao stretched out his hand to hold the little fourth son's hand.
The fourth boy held the ball and blinked, then suddenly stopped there.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other - Youmen!
Gongsun and Zhao Pu also looked over - the fourth son must have seen something, right?
After being stunned for a while, the little boy came back to his senses and said "Ouch" to the two hemispheres.
Gongsun looked at Zhao Pu - the dumpling made a strange sound!
