When it comes to lock making and unlocking, the Chinese are the well-deserved ancestors. However, since the Song Dynasty, with the invasion of the Mongolian army, Chinese lock technology has gradually declined, while Goryeo has slowly caught up. By the Ming Dynasty, most of China's lock production relied on Goryeo.
.For hundreds of years, the country of Goryeo has produced many talented people, and skilled craftsmen in the field of lock making have continued to emerge. During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, a strange man appeared in the country of Goryeo, which brought the lock-making craftsmanship of Goryeo to its peak.
There is a saying: "Take care of the box and secure the tangerine. If a big thief comes, you will carry the box, uncover the box, and rush there with the bag, lest the box be sealed and the tangerine will not be secured..." This means that the box should be locked tightly to prevent theft.
, tie it up, and when the robber comes, he takes the box and runs away, fearing that the box is not locked tightly and the binding is not strong! Locks are actually used to guard against gentlemen but not against villains. No matter how powerful the lock is, it is least likely to be hacked.
That's it. This Korean craftsman invented the self-destruct device! This problem was solved. As long as the box is hit by a huge external force, the cutting device will be activated immediately, destroying the contents in the box instantly, so it is naturally safe and reliable.
.
Back then, when Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty arranged for his successor, he just put the edict in a box and placed it behind the upright and bright plaque. Now the Japanese have not only occupied the past Goryeo, which is now North Korea, but also cultivated it.
Puyi founded Manchukuo. Obtaining the technology to make such a box with such precision was naturally not a big problem.
Looking at the black iron box, Mu Yunchen nodded and asked Miezi: "Okay! Then let's go find the Korean. Where is he?"
Mieko said two words with a serious expression: "Kyoto!"
"What? Kyoto?" Monk Tongming stood up from his chair at once: "A few of us are wanted there. If we go back now, wouldn't we be falling into a trap?"
Mu Yunchen smiled: "You think you're safe if you stay here. There was such a big noise last night. Now go outside and take a look. Maybe the police are looking for someone on the street. It's no longer safe to come here. It's better to go there again."
Returning to Kyoto, as the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest, but it is much safer to return to Kyoto now!"
Everyone nodded. Miezi said: "Brother Ma is like this now. If we take him with us, I'm afraid..."
"Don't worry, I have a solution!" Han Xiaomo said confidently: "Go out and get a car now, and we'll leave immediately!"
No car was found, only a carriage. Mu Yunchen and Monk Tongming carried Ma Xingkong and put it on the car. Before daylight, a few people walked out of Edo Castle in the light mist. Although the carriage was not there,
The train is fast, but it also has a lot of fun. You can enjoy the scenery along the way slowly, and it is relatively comfortable for a night. The group did not dare to take the main road, so they found some relatively easy paths and tried to avoid the inspection posts.
He used Ma Xingkong's military certificate to get through. After being delayed for two days on the road, he finally saw the city of Kyoto.
Ma Xingkong's condition became more and more serious. His entire chest and stomach were completely ulcerated, and Bai Sensen's ribs could be seen in some places. The internal organs had not yet rotted, so Mu Yunchen cleaned Ma Xingkong's wounds for the last time.
With a whip on the horse's butt, the carriage drove into Kyoto city.
The turmoil in Kyoto City may have passed. The police and military police in the city have become much quieter, and the lives of the people have returned to normal. It is still the inconspicuous little temple on Mount Fuji. After a few people settled down, Mu Yunchen led
Carrying the suitcase, I went to find the Korean with Mieko.
What Mu Yunchen didn't expect was that this Korean was also a Japanese officer. He was wearing a khaki officer's uniform and looked much better than the Japanese. This man was not very old and wore a pair of glasses.
He looked polite and polite. Maybe he had some thoughts about Mieko. When he saw Mieko coming to the door, he looked particularly excited.
"This is my eldest brother, Inoue!" Miezi randomly gave Mu Yunchen a Japanese name, then pointed at the Korean and said: "This is Lieutenant Ishihara, a former Korean, and his name is..."
"Kim Jong-cheng!" Kim Jong-cheng hurriedly said his Korean name and smiled at Mu Yunchen.
The three of them were polite to each other for a while. Jin Zhengcheng poured a glass of water for the two of them and gradually got to the topic. Mu Yunchen opened the baggage behind him and put the iron box in front of Jin Zhengcheng. Jin Zhengcheng's brows immediately frowned.
He looked at Mu Yunchen and Miezi and asked: "Where did this thing come from? As far as I know, in Japan, there is only one Army Medical School in Edo. Could it be...?"
Mu Yunchen nodded: "That's the one we stole!"
"Hey!" Kim Jong-cheng sighed, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Actually, I brought this thing to Japan from North Korea. I thought I would never see it again, but I didn't expect there would be such an opportunity. This box is our national treasure in North Korea.
, several generations of lock-making masters have spent their whole lives working hard to make it. I feel really unwilling to give it to the Japanese like this. Anyway, I can help you open this box, but I have a condition!"
"Say!" Mu Yunchen said, "I'll listen first!"
Jin Zhengcheng said: "You stole it just because you wanted the things inside. After you get the things inside, can you leave the box to me?"
Mu Yunchen and Miezi looked at each other and asked, "Why is this? What does he need to do with a box?"
Jin Zhengcheng said: "You don't understand what this box means to a lock technician? If you don't agree to this condition, I won't help you!"
Miezi said: "Okay, we agree to your request and leave the box to you!"
Kim Jong-cheng smiled slightly and nodded. Then he stood up and entered the room. He quickly took out a box that was three inches long, with an edge on each side, and was densely covered with high and low concave and convex points. Kim Jong-un twisted hard, and the one outside the box
The big iron lock opened in response. He shook his head and said with a smile: "The Japanese are really stupid!"
Pick up the key, put it into a small hole hidden behind the big lock, and twist it to the left first. There will be a "buzzing" sound in the box. After hearing the sound, twist it to the right again. "Bang!"
There was a crisp sound, and a stronger "buzzing" sound came from the box again. When everything stopped, Jin Zhengcheng took out the key and pressed it lightly on the upper right corner of the box. The lid of the box suddenly popped up, revealing
A shallow gap.
"Okay! You can open it!" Jin Zhengcheng put away the key and pushed the box in front of Mu Yunchen.
Mu Yunchen used extremely slight movements to lift the lid of the box little by little. From the outside, the inside of the box was no different from an ordinary box. The inside was as smooth as new, but the space inside the box was smaller and was taken up by the inner wall.
A large portion. A round glass bottle lay quietly inside, with the transparent liquid motionless. A piece of paper was placed under the glass bottle.
