339、Mysterious Iron Box
Ye Jiuliang nodded, suddenly remembered something, and asked anxiously, "Where is the ancestral hall you mentioned?"
"In the yard to the north." Ji Mingqian said.
Ye Jiuliang ran out quickly, but Ji Mingqian didn't even react.
"Ajiu, wait for me."
The ancestral hall is gloomy and there are still a pile of corpses at the door. After careful look, there should be two dogs. It is probably the watchdogs raised by the owner before.
Ye Jiu pushed the door and walked in. There were many footprints on the dusty ground, and there were many torn Buddhist scriptures in the corner.
As Ji Mingqian said, there is no tablet on the table, and the traces of the dust falling from the position vary in depth, and the traces of the tablets used to be placed.
It seems that the tablets on this table were taken away.
Ye Jiuliang looked down at the table, looking around with deep eyes.
Ji Mingqian was looking at whether there were any mechanisms around him who didn't pay attention to his feet for a while and almost tripped by the futon on the ground.
"I'll go."
Ye Jiuliang heard the movement and turned around, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay." Ji Mingqian kicked away the futon on the ground, and his eyes were suddenly attracted by the things under the futon.
His eyes were slightly darker, and he raised his foot and stepped on the floor tiles under the futon.
"Dongdong--"
It's hollow.
His eyes suddenly lit up, "Ajiu, come here and take a look."
Ye Jiuliang stood up and walked over.
"What's the discovery?"
"This floor tiles are hollow." Ji Mingqian said.
Open hollow?
"Don't move for now."
Ye Jiuliang grabbed his hand and looked at the hollow brick carefully with his eyes down.
After watching for a while, she moved her gaze away and swept across other parts of the ancestral hall.
"Ajiu, what are you thinking? First pry open the floor tiles to see what is inside." Ji Mingqian said in confusion.
Ye Jiuliang let go of his hand and said, "Pry it."
Ji Mingqian went out to find tools, but soon he walked in with a rusty hammer.
Ye Jiuliang took a step back, Ji Mingqian picked up the hammer and smashed the hollow brick hard.
"Bang--"
In an instant, dust fluttered.
With the faint light of the cell phone, a dark iron box came into their sight.
Sure enough, there is a mystery inside.
Ji Mingqian threw down the hammer, squatted down, and did not care about the mess, and reached out to pick up the iron box hidden under the floor tiles.
The tentacles are cold and heavy. This small iron box is actually made of rare thousand-year-old black iron.
What's more, the iron box is locked, and the iron box is hidden in the mechanism. The password is entered incorrectly. Once the mechanism is started, the iron box will be locked.
After fiddling with the iron box, Ji Mingqian said with a serious expression, "Ajiu, the iron box is locked."
Unless there is a key, there is no other way.
Ye Jiuliang reached out to grab the iron box, and the iron box was locked, which only proved that someone had touched the iron box and could not be opened.
"Ajiu, do you think those people are looking for this iron box here?" Ji Mingqian guessed.
"No." Ye Jiuliang shook his head, "They don't want to find an iron box, but they want to lead us here to discover this iron box."
Ji Mingqian touched his chin and looked at the iron box in her hand with interest, "Can they not be able to open it and think we can open it?"
This is worthy of them too much.
Ye Jiuliang looked through the iron box and tried to see some clues.
"Stop looking, there is no other way to this broken iron box except for the key that can be opened." Ji Mingqian said.
Ye Jiuliang threw the iron box to him and then circled back and forth in the ancestral hall.
After searching for a long time, no other discoveries were found except this iron box.
The two left the ancestral hall and found a random place outside the corridor to sit.
Ji Mingqian was playing with the iron box, holding the high-speed iron box to study the mechanism in the iron box.
The people around him were silent. He wanted to hear her thoughts, "Ajiu, what do you think?"
"It's obvious that those men in black have come to this house, and they should have been there a lot of times. They should have put this iron box back into the hollow brick. They should have wanted us to discover it." Ye Jiuliang analyzed in an orderly manner.
Rather than letting them discover the iron box, it should be said that they want to use their hands to open the iron box for them.
As soon as she changed her subject, she suddenly remembered a point that she ignored, "A Qian, have you checked the previous owner of this big mansion?"
Ji Mingqian explained, "Not yet, I didn't carry the computer with me, and the signal here is too bad, so it's not convenient to check it."
"When tomorrow dawn, we will search for this big mansion to see if there are any missing clues." After thinking about it, Ye Jiuliang said.
Ji Mingqian nodded, now this is all I can do.
...
It suddenly started to rain heavily in the middle of the night, and the thunder roared, scaring many people to wake up from their sleep.
The light at the head of the bed suddenly lit up, Fang Hui sat up, sweating profusely, her face still in shock, and she thought she was having a nightmare.
Fang Hui gasped and wiped the sweat from her forehead.
It was that dream again.
Who was the man in the hotel that day, and why did she have no impression of the person's appearance?
Listening to the sound of rain outside, she felt uneasy inexplicably, as if something was about to happen.
She lifted the quilt and got out of bed, poured a glass of water, and just took a sip when Wei Lan's voice suddenly sounded outside the door.
"Shaohui, why do you drink so much wine? Slowly."
Fang Hui frowned, put down her cup, walked to the door lightly, opened the door, and the bright lights in the corridor slipped into the bedroom.
Seeing Li Shaohui leaning on Wei Lan drunk, Fang Hui's eyes were slightly dim and she couldn't help but speak.
"Sister-in-law."
"Fang Hui, are you not asleep yet?" Wei Lan heard the voice and turned around to see Fang Hui standing at the door, speaking in a warm voice.
"I'll get up and drink a glass of water." Fang Hui smiled.
"What's wrong with brother?"
"I've drunk too much." Wei Lan said helplessly.
"Sister-in-law, please help your brother back to your room. I'll help you make a cup of honey water for you."
Wei Lan held Li Shaohui's hand, and Li Shaohui leaned against her, which inevitably made her feel a little troubled, "It's so late, don't bother you anymore, I'll do it myself."
"It's okay, I'll help you. Anyway, I'm up. Please help your brother back to your room." As he said that, Fang Hui walked downstairs.
"Thank you, Fang Hui." Wei Lan said in a low voice.
After a while, Fang Hui came upstairs with a glass of honey water. The door of Li Shaohui's bedroom was not closed. She stood at the door and saw Wei Lan changing clothes for Li Shaohui, her face slightly ugly.
When Wei Lan turned her head, a smile appeared on her face.
"Sister-in-law, the honey water is ready."
Wei Lan got up and reached out to take the cup she handed over.
"Fang Hui, I'm really troubled you."
"What does the family say about trouble? Take care of your elder brother, I'll go back to the room first." Fang Hui said.
Wei Lan nodded, "Well, you can rest early."
When Fang Hui turned around, her face suddenly became gloomy.
Stupid woman.
I deserve to be played with by me. Sooner or later, the mistress in this bedroom will be my Fang Hui.
