That night, we returned to Wen Qingshan's house with the stone box. Ghost Eye Chen originally planned to come with us, but when he heard that we were now living in Wen Qingshan's house, he immediately changed his mind. It seemed that there was a relationship between him and Wen Qingshan.
It seems like there is some old grudge.
When we returned to Wen Qingshan's house, the house was empty. Wen Qingshan was still lying in the hospital, and Fatty Niu was accompanying him in the hospital.
A few of us walked into the living room. Huang Yixian placed the stone box on the table. Jianjian took a look at the stone box and asked in confusion: "Dad, why didn't you just accept the five million? Why didn't you accept the five million?"
Why are you studying this broken box?"
Huang Yixian glared at him and asked, "Don't you see that there is something fishy about this matter?"
"Why are you saying the same thing as brother!" Jianjian said disapprovingly: "Even if Lin Ke'er really has some other ulterior motives and cares about our business, it's not like she won't pay!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Huang Yixian cursed: "You stinky boy! As the saying goes, a gentleman loves money and gets it in the right way! If it is ill-gotten wealth, how can you ask for it casually!"
Jianjian stuck out her tongue, not daring to say anything more.
Huang Yixian turned to me again and asked: "Shi Yu, do you also think this matter is a bit strange?"
I nodded and said: "I think Lin Keer's real purpose seems to be for this box! Moreover, she seems to know what is in the box. If the things in the box are really related to the people in the cult, I am worried about Lin Keer
Maybe it has something to do with the people in the cult."
"You're right! This girl's palace is very deep! And even if she has nothing to do with the cult, we can never give her the contents of the box."
"Why?"
Huang Yixian said: "That old man Lin not only set up a Qimen Bagua array to hide the void barrier, but also used a soul-sealing stone to place this thing. This is enough to show that this thing is extremely important! Even if that girl takes it for granted.
He is really a descendant of the Lin family, but he is a foreigner after all, and we cannot let this thing be lost abroad no matter what."
"Don't we have to hand this box over to her in three days?"
Huang Yixian chuckled and said, "That's right! However, I only said that I would hand over the box to her in three days, but I didn't say that I would hand over the contents to her!"
I was slightly startled: "Uncle, do you want to keep the things in the box? But, I don't know how to open this box yet!"
"So! We have to intensify our research in the past few days and open this box as soon as possible!" Huang Yixian said, grabbed the stone box on the table, and started studying again.
For two days in a row, Huang Yixian and Zhai Bo focused almost all their energy on the stone box, but no matter how they fiddled with it, they were never able to open it.
There is only one day left before the date agreed with Lin Keer. Huang Yixian is very anxious. In order to open the stone box, he and Uncle Zhai have not had a good rest for two consecutive nights. I can't help but worry about their health.
Both of them are already over seventy years old. Let alone such an old age, even young people in their twenties and thirties may not be able to withstand such a torment.
But Huang Yixian was very stubborn and refused to listen to advice at all. He showed a posture that he would not give up until the stone box was opened, and asked the three of us to rest, while he stayed alone in the living room and continued to play with the stone box.
In the middle of the night, I woke up from my dream and found that the lights were still on in the living room, so I decided to go have a look and try to persuade Huang Yixian. Unexpectedly, before I walked into the living room, I heard a burst of thunderous snoring.
When he walked into the living room, he saw that Huang Yixian had fallen asleep on the sofa, and he was still holding the stone box in his arms.
After all, he couldn't resist the invasion of sleepiness, and I breathed a sigh of relief. Although I inevitably felt a little regretful, Huang Yixian's health was still the most important thing.
I walked over lightly and carefully took the stone box from Huang Yixian's arms. He suddenly snorted and muttered something, which startled me. I thought I had woken him up.
But he just turned over and continued to snore like thunder. Then a stone fell from my heart.
In order not to disturb Huang Yixian, I returned to my room holding the stone box.
Facing such a mysterious stone box, my curiosity was aroused. What would be inside it? After thinking about it, I decided to try to see if I could open it.
Of course, I don't know how to crack the so-called "Qi Ling Lock". What I think of is the most primitive method, which is to forcefully pry it open! In fact, this method is not different from the violent method of breaking it open with a hammer as mentioned by Jianjian.
More or less, but I feel that at least this will not destroy the yin and yang aura of the evil thing inside.
I first took out a Swiss knife and wanted to insert the blade into the slits of the stone box, but I didn't expect that the slits were so tight that the blade couldn't be inserted at all. I took out the fish intestine sword again, and the fish intestine sword
It was extremely sharp, and I thought it wouldn't be difficult to insert the tip of the fish intestine sword into the narrow slit of the stone box.
However, I obviously underestimated the tightness of the slits on the stone box, and the sharp fish intestine sword also failed to penetrate the slits at all.
I couldn't help but feel a little anxious. By accident, my hand slipped, and the sharp sword blade happened to cut across my palm. A large gash was cut in my palm, and a stream of blood flowed out.
I quickly covered the wound with my hand, but the blood still dripped down along the palm prints and landed on the stone box. At this time, a magical scene appeared. The blood quickly seeped into the stone box and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Without a trace.
I thought I was dazzled, so I rubbed my eyes and took a closer look. I found that the blood that had just dripped on the stone box was indeed gone, and there was not even the slightest trace left on it.
Out of curiosity, I opened the wound and dropped a few drops of blood on the stone box. Almost in the blink of an eye, the few drops of blood seeped into it, as if what was in front of me was not a stone box.
It's a square sponge.
What's going on!? This is obviously a hard stone, how can it have such good water absorption?
I was just wondering when I suddenly heard a "click" and the box opened on its own.
I was stunned for a moment before I realized what I was doing and opened it! I actually opened the box! I never thought that the key to opening the box would be my blood!
I couldn't help but think of that dragon's tooth. Back then, my blood was easily integrated into the dragon's tooth. Ghost Eye Chen said it was because the blood of the demon hunter had a very special aura and could blend with the dragon's tooth. Now that I
So this is the reason why this box can be opened?
If you think about it carefully, it is indeed possible. Mr. Lin is a demon hunter. He sealed the box in this way, which means that only a demon hunter can open the box. In this way, even if the box falls,
In the hands of people in the cult, it is difficult for them to take out the things sealed inside.
I couldn't suppress the excitement in my heart, and carefully opened the stone box completely and took a look. In the center of the box, there was a blood-red gemstone the size of an adult's palm, completely transparent, with edges and corners.
Isn't this just a ruby? Is it the "evil object" hidden by Mr. Lin?
I can't help but wonder, this thing doesn't look like an evil thing, so why does Mr. Lin go to all the trouble to hide it?
However, such a large piece of ruby should be worth a lot of money, maybe even a fortune.
I was very curious and took out the ruby from the stone box. When I held it in my hand, it felt very cold, as if I was touching an ice cube.
I put the gem under the light, and through the light, I found that there seemed to be a mass of something almost black and red in the gem, but it looked very blurry, and I didn't know what it was.
I was about to take a closer look when I suddenly felt that the black-red thing inside the ruby seemed to be squirming slightly! I couldn't help but feel my heart tremble, what's going on!? Could it be that there is a "living" thing sealed inside this ruby!
?
I quickly rubbed my eyes and stared at the ruby for a while, but I didn't find any movement in the black-red thing. I felt a little relieved. It seemed that I was just dazzled and had an optical illusion.
That's all.
I held the ruby in my hand and looked at it for a long time, but couldn't see any clues. I was about to call Huang Yixian and Uncle Zhai to take a look, but suddenly I felt the ruby in my hand tremble slightly, and then I heard another "click" sound.
Ring. I quickly looked down and was shocked to see that the ruby in my hand had cracked in half!
Before I could react to what was going on, a wisp of black mist suddenly emerged from the ruby, and it suddenly penetrated into my nasal cavity like a living thing.
In an instant, I felt a rush of hot air rushing straight to my forehead, and my head felt swollen. I couldn't help but secretly thought: "No! Maybe it's evil energy!"
The consequences of inhaling the evil spirit can be big or small. In the most serious case, a person may become a living dead like a zombie!
I immediately stood up and opened my mouth to call for help, but my throat seemed to be stuck with something and I couldn't make a sound! Then, my whole head seemed to explode, and there was a sharp pain, and every part of my body felt like it.
Every cell seemed to be on fire. The feeling was like being held up to a blazing fire.
My consciousness gradually became blurred, and my body gradually lost strength. I wanted to hold the table with my hands and sit down, but I didn't even have the strength to raise my hands. Finally, my feet went soft and I fell to the ground, losing consciousness.
.
I don’t know how long it took, but I woke up. I felt hot all over my body, and waves of hot air came over me, as if I was in a sauna. I turned around and glanced, and was surprised to find that I seemed to be lying on the same bed.
Standing on the huge black sandstone, I couldn't help but feel startled. I quickly got up and looked around, and I couldn't help but be surprised.
