She used external force, didn't she twist it with her hands, but she couldn't twist it, and it was impossible to even press it down. What kind of external force is needed now that it's like this?
"What kind of external force? Do you want me to find a hammer and hammer it down?"
Wei Na: "!"
He thought that the consequence of this would be to destroy the entire box, without any other effect.
"Why don't you try another method? I want to see if the key has a pattern. Is it possible that it was not inserted into the keyhole according to the established pattern?"
"Well, that's what I thought too."
An Jiuyue nodded, she thought so too.
Reaching out, she was about to take off the key and rearrange it to see if it could be turned.
But before her hand touched the key, she heard a 'click' sound, and a large part of the key was swallowed up by the keyhole, leaving only the base.
An Jiuyue: "!!!"
He actually carries one like this, so the mechanism on this box can only be driven down by the weight of the key itself.
On top of the predetermined weight, even if it were added a little bit, it would be impossible to find the mechanism on the box, so she pressed it hard before, but it had no effect at all.
This kind of mechanism is really ingenious. It would be impossible for her alone to make such an exquisite mechanism.
When only the base of the key was exposed, the keyhole slowly began to rotate with the key in it. After a forty-five-degree angle, the key was pushed out.
After waiting for a while, it turned again, and after a 90-degree angle, it sank again.
An Jiuyue could only hear a slight "knocking" sound coming from the box, which was the sound of the gears in the mechanism turning a little slowly or at a very fast speed.
After several rotations, finally, the keyhole stopped moving.
There was only a "squeaking" sound, and an iron bar two fingers wide popped out from the side of the box as long as a thumb, and then there was no movement.
"What's going on? Are you trying to pull out the iron bar?"
While she was talking, An Jiuyue took action and pulled out the iron bar directly. Not to mention, the pull was quite effortless and it came out in one go.
Next, the keyhole on the box began to rotate again. After the key went up and down several times, another iron bar popped out.
According to the situation last time, An Jiuyue took away the iron box again.
After repeating this for twenty-four times, pulling out eight iron bars from each of the upper, middle and lower levels, the keyhole stopped moving.
After waiting for a while, An Jiuyue felt that the box should be able to be opened. She held the two sides of the lid with both hands and opened the lid.
"Tsk, this box is quite exquisite."
"That's right, if you put it outside, this box alone can be worth tens of thousands of taels of silver." Wei Na agreed in the space.
An Jiuyue: "..."
What was this person following her? It was a money-hungry ghost.
People are marveling at the craftsmanship of this box, but Wei Na is thinking about how much money this box is worth. No one else can do this, right?
"Can you say something normal?"
"cough."
Wei Na coughed slightly and quickly became serious.
"Master, I think the person who can own such a nice box is definitely not an ordinary person. Come and see what your father has left for you, right?"
