When all the VIPs in the venue were embarrassed and no one raised their placards, unexpectedly, a mysterious man sitting in the last row raised his placard, which was 550,000 pounds.

Young Master Lu who came with him was different from Nalanhong and Wushuang. He was a second-generation official, and his family was rich and powerful. He had a stubborn temper. If no one raised a sign, this treasure might not be auctioned. When he saw that someone wanted it,

I immediately got excited and started fighting with others for 600,000 pounds!

"Master Lu, are you crazy? Isn't this just a stone gada? Did your father's money come from the strong wind?" Nalanhong reminded him to be rational.

Seven hundred thousand pounds, the other party made another offer.

Seven hundred and fifty thousand, Lu Haotian turned around and glared at the yellow-skinned man wearing a peaked cap.

The man hesitated for a moment, smiled coldly at Lu Haotian, and raised the sign again, one million pounds! The scene was in an uproar!

Lu Haotian stood up. The young master had never been able to get what he wanted. The more people competed with him, the more he thought it was a fun deal, even if it was just a piece of rotten stone. He added a new price on the auction price tag.

He wrote the number 110 and was about to raise the sign again, but Wushuang held him down.

"That's enough, rats." This Mr. Lu has always been fearless, but he has only listened to one person in his life, that is Wushuang. Wushuang and his childhood friend grew up wearing the same pair of pants.

Later, we had a life-long friendship.

Nalanhong snapped his fingers, and Dayong hurriedly came closer. "Dayong, go and find out for me the background of the VIP who competed with Mr. Lu for the dragon eggs just now."

In the end, the stone, called a dragon egg, was auctioned by this mysterious yellow-skinned distinguished guest. Lu Haotian was very angry about this. Dayong came back and said that the auction had done an excellent job of keeping the identities of the distinguished guests secret. He only found out that

He is also Chinese and knows nothing else.

"Forget it, there are always a lot of rich people in China. Mouse, you don't need to spend 10 million to buy a piece of broken rock to play with at home. If your father finds out, I'm afraid he will blame me again. Even if it is a national treasure, it's still a waste.

It’s no pity that it’s in the hands of us Chinese.” Wushuang comforted Lu Haotian.

Originally, the matter had just passed. The three of them were just traveling in the UK for a few days. Unexpectedly, Nalanhong mentioned the matter again today. It was okay that he didn't mention it. After this kick, Wushuang suddenly felt that the

The stone eggs called dragon eggs are very similar to the dragon beads that Lin Meixi obtained in the crypt last night.

"Don't tell me, Xiaolan, something's not right. Could it be... Is there any relationship between this dragon ball and the dragon eggs that the Eight-Nation Allied Forces snatched in the Summer Palace?" Wushuang is a very tight-knit person, so he quickly gave it to him.

I called my family and asked them to re-investigate the origins of the dragon eggs sold at Sotheby's auction last year.

Wushuang looked at his watch and saw that the time was almost up. He first hung a lit candle with a rope and lowered it down. He saw that the small flame of the candle was slightly swayed by the cold wind, but it did not go out immediately after falling to the bottom of the cave. He

He nodded, indicating that he could go down.

Dongzi and Dayong were both afraid that their master would be in danger, so they scrambled to be the first to go down, but were stopped by Wushuang. "None of you are allowed to go down. This crypt is not that simple. There may be many mechanisms down there, and they are all there."

Just keep watch from above, Xiaolan, Miss Meixi and I can just go down."

"Young Master, you and Master Nalan are of noble status, so we should leave these matters to our servants."

"Dongzi, you still don't understand your young master's temper. If you go down, he will be worried. The dangers in this ancient tomb are not something you can avoid with hard work. You have forgotten whose descendant Wushuang is.

Huh? Don’t worry, you guys are watching from above."

"Brother Lan, be careful." After saying this, Nan Haiyue handed Nalanhong's golden dragon-coiled stick to her husband. In the past, the three of them had gone deep into the ancient tombs of emperors many times, and their life and death depended on it.

But it is different now. She is a wife and has a one-year-old child. As a mother, she can no longer accompany her husband on adventures like before.

The hole was more than three meters deep from the ground. Nalanhong did not need the protection of other equipment. He jumped directly in with a light body. Wushuang held the rope and slid down slowly. Finally, he reached Lin Meixi, who closed her eyes

With her eyes and hands tightly grasping the rope, she was trembling and moving little by little, but the more nervous she became, the less stable she became. Her foot slipped and she fell with a cry. Fortunately, it wasn't too deep. Wu Shuang pushed her with his arm when she was about to land.

, taking away most of her weight.

"Ouch... what a small waist!" Lin Meixi lay on the ground and grinned while pressing her waist against pain. "Hey, uncle, are you a bit of a gentleman? Can't you catch me?"

"If I catch you, we will both break our bones." Wushuang said coldly.

On the roof of the cave, Dongzi threw down two flashlights. When he turned on the flashlights, the whole cave suddenly became much brighter. The other side of this corridor was indeed what Wushuang had said. It was blocked by a high wall not far away. This thick wall

The thick high wall is well sealed with no gaps at all, and there are uneven patterns carved on it.

Wushuang said that this is the real entrance. Although the wall is airtight and tight, there must be a switch among the regular dragon patterns that opens the crypt door. Of course, there is only one correct mechanism.

The others are probably life-threatening things.

This thick barrier is entirely made of brass, and the dragon patterns on it were poured and carved drop by drop by the craftsmen at that time. Wushuang said that this kind of construction technology is both from an architectural and artistic perspective.

It seems to be far superior to modern craftsmanship.

The dragon patterns on the copper wall are distributed very regularly. If the thick copper wall is the night sky, then the regularly distributed dragon patterns are the bright stars in the starry sky.

Lin Meixi majored in history. She wanted to talk eloquently, but she failed to speak out under the noses of Wushuang and Nalanhong. However, after she went back, she boasted a lot in front of her friends. This situation probably even shocked her own teacher.

never seen it.

"Meixi, do you know how many years the Qing Dynasty lasted?" Wu Shuang looked at it for a long time but did not dare to take action easily. Instead, he asked about the history of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

"You can't pass me on this test. After all, I am also a history major, year 267." Lin Meixi answered very confidently. She has memorized these things since she was a child, and there is nothing wrong with her.

"Oh, it's not wrong. I just counted carefully. There are a total of 6 dragon patterns on this copper wall. Do you know why this is?"

Lin Meixi was still competing with Wushuang, pointing at the dragon patterns one by one and counting them. She believed that if the calculation was based on the time when the Manchus ruled China, it would definitely be 267. This is absolutely correct. What is recorded in the history books is official history.
