Chapter 299 Sister Nan was brilliant in southern Xinjiang
Gu Gu had not yet recovered from his shock, staring at Gu Nanyi with complicated eyes.
"who are you?"
Gu Nan raised the corners of her lips and placed the tea cup on the coffee table nearby.
"Someone has been asking this question lately. What if I say that I am the owner of the golden python?"
Gu Gu snorted lightly, thinking that Gu Nanyi was talking nonsense.
"How dare you, a little girl, speak so brazenly? Do you know where the Golden Python comes from? It is a mythical beast that was raised in the mortal world by an expert who has been traveling as immortals for hundreds of years. It has lived for more than five hundred years.
, if you think about it, when it was born, your ancestors may not have been born."
Gu Gu was really a little angry at the moment. This girl was very cunning. She refused to tell the truth during the conversation, but instead tried many times to try to get useful information from him.
Gu Luoli on the side shot a cold look at Gu Nan.
"How dare you tell such a ridiculous lie."
Gu Nan raised an eyebrow slightly and asked, "Why did the golden python surrender to me?"
Gu and Gu Luoli were shocked. Yes, why did the golden python, which has always been cold-blooded and ruthless, treat Gu Nanyi specially?
What they had just seen with their own eyes was that the golden python was like a child begging for favor in front of Gu Nanyi. It even looked extremely lonely when Gu Nanyi left.
How to explain this?
Seeing that Gu and Gu Luoli were no longer talking to each other, Gu Nan chuckled lightly.
"I originally came to southern Xinjiang to find the descendants of Wu Tai, but I didn't expect that I was caught by you by mistake. Your ancestors Gu Yunchuan and Wu Tai had a close friendship with me at that time, and they were both born in southern Xinjiang.
Jiang, are the descendants of your two families still in contact?"
People in southern Xinjiang attach great importance to inheritance and connections between families.
Back then, the Gu family was the royal family of Southern Xinjiang, and the Wu family was the descendant of the great wizard of Southern Xinjiang. The Wang family and the great wizard have always been closely connected.
Gu Gu looked at the girl in front of him with a complicated expression, trying to see a trace of lying on her face.
But when she spoke, her expression was calm and calm, and she spoke slowly and casually, as if she was mentioning something long ago.
"Since you said you are old acquaintances with the ancestors of the Gu family, let me ask you, what was your name at that time, and did you leave any tokens?"
Gu Nan glanced at Gu Gu, and something quickly flashed in his mind.
"I once left a cryptex to Gu Yunchuan."
The ancient pupils suddenly shrank.
"What does the box look like?"
"Made of rosewood, with some runes carved on it, the box can be broken down into forty-nine, using seven stacks."
Gu Gu froze on the spot, and her description was accurate. She even explained the construction structure of the cryptex clearly.
The art of seven-fold numbers has been lost for a long time, so people today would never know that this cryptex uses seven-fold numbers.
So, she really might be that person.
Gu Gu opened the secret compartment in front of the desk with trembling hands and took out a square box the size of a palm.
"Miss Gu, since this box belongs to you, you should be able to open it."
Gu Nan glanced at the wooden box. Although the runes and patterns on the box were much older, they could still vaguely see what they looked like back then.
She stood up and walked to the table, reaching for the wooden box.
Quickly turn the mechanism on the cipher box with both hands, similar to Tetris, but hundreds of times more difficult than Tetris.
The excuse for its construction is to use the "7" principle. To return each grid to its correct position, you need to remember 49 unrelated numeric codes, and these numeric codes will eventually be attributed to the number "7".
"Crack!"
Ten minutes later, the cipher box opened with a sound.
Like an unfolding lotus, it slowly unfolds from the center to all sides.
In the center of the box is a black piece of flaky stuff, which looks like jade but not jade, and is completely smooth.
Seeing something like this, Gu Nan's calm eyes finally showed a glimmer of light.
Five hundred years later, she finally saw items belonging to her hometown.
"Miss Gu, what is this?"
Gu Nan pondered for a moment and put away the black items.
"It's an inheritance from my ancestors. It's ancient. I want to take something like this away."
The old man nodded.
"This is something that originally belonged to you. Now that you are back, of course you must return it to its original owner. By the way, there is also this painting."
Gu Nan looked at the picture of a lady on the table.
"Why is this painting here with you?"
Gu Gu looked at Gu Nanyi in surprise.
"Miss Gu, have you seen this painting?"
"Well, I have seen it in archeology. This painting was restored by my friend. He said it was excavated from an ancient tomb."
Gu Gu said: "Do you know whose tomb they dug up?"
Gu Nan frowned and took a deep look at Gu Gu.
The old man seemed very angry.
"Is it the tomb of King Qi?"
Gu Luoli on the side said: "Yes, it is indeed the royal tomb of our ancestors of the Gu family."
"So you stole this painting from the archeology institute?"
Gu Luoli said angrily: "It's not stealing, it's just getting back what belongs to us."
Gu Nan nodded, that's right, taking back his own things is indeed not considered stealing.
But..., the Archaeological Institute must be in chaos now.
Fu Yunchen stayed up for several nights to restore the painting. When it was about to be completed, someone stole it. You can imagine his mood.
"One thing I don't quite understand is that you are descendants of King Qi. If you don't want the archeology department to excavate your ancestors' royal tombs, you can argue with them in advance. Why do you have to wait until the royal tombs are excavated before you "get" them back?"
The old man sighed.
"This is also a helpless move. In recent decades, many tomb robbers from other places have been rampant in southern Xinjiang. Many large tombs have been looted by these guys. If our Gu family had not been sending people to guard the tombs near the royal tombs, I am afraid that it would have been a long time ago.
The tomb has been completely emptied by thieves. Even if people were arranged to guard it, the thieves still managed to avoid the sight of the tombkeepers by digging a hole. They stole many treasures from King Qi’s tomb. Fortunately for us
I discovered it in time so that they wouldn't empty it out. In order to protect the peace of my ancestors' tombs, I decided to secretly let someone report to the relevant departments in order to protect the peace of my ancestors' tombs. Instead of letting thieves resell them, it would be safest to put them in the Southern Xinjiang Museum.
Moreover, when the outside world knows that the tomb of King Qi has been excavated by relevant departments, those tomb robbers will no longer worry about it."
