Tan Junda, who borrowed a hammer from the venue, was full of excitement and was accompanied by several people from the organizer. When they heard that he was going to smash open the wooden box of the mechanism on the spot, many people came over curiously to watch.
Putting the wooden box on the ground, Tan Junda looked at Jiang Zhihao and asked: "Brother Jiang, are you coming or should I come?"
"This is your thing. Go ahead and use some strength at the beginning. If it breaks, be careful. Don't damage the contents inside." Jiang Zhihao reminded.
"Okay!" Tan Junda grinned at Tao Guoan, making Mr. Tao's body hairy with laughter.
Then, Tan Junda hit the wooden box hard with a hammer.
It has to be said that the box made of gloomy wood is so hard that even if a heavy hammer hits it, there will be no movement.
The banging sound attracted more people, and everyone guessed what was inside.
Some people say it is a treasure map, others say there is no hair at all. There are different opinions.
After five or six minutes of continuous smashing, until my arms were tired and sore, the wooden box finally cracked.
Tan Junda followed Jiang Zhihao's reminder, reduced his strength, and smashed open the most open box.
Perhaps because some mechanism was touched, when part of the box fell, the entire wooden box instantly fell into pieces.
Jiang Zhihao secretly exclaimed that it was a pity. According to later research, this kind of mechanical wooden box may have been passed down from the Book of Lu Ban. The ancient people's strange and skillful skills in the mechanism are definitely not comparable to modern people.
This is the only object of its kind in the world. If it is smashed, there is no possibility of recovery.
But no one can untie it without violence.
To choose one of the two, Jiang Zhihao had no choice but to give up the wooden box.
The wooden boxes were scattered on the ground, and the contents inside finally saw the light of day.
The moment they saw this thing, everyone exclaimed in surprise.
It was a crystal clear green orb that still emitted a little bit of fluorescence even in the daytime. It was about the size of a thumb, almost oval.
Someone immediately exclaimed: "Is this the Night Pearl?"
Tao Guoan had naturally heard of the Night Pearl, but he didn't know much about it, so he looked at Xi Yangrong. Xi Yangrong looked a little uncomfortable, but he still had to explain: "The Night Pearl is also called Sui Hou Pearl, Hanging Pearl, and Hanging Thorn.
It is a self-luminous gemstone. The most famous one is the one buried with the Empress Dowager Cixi. According to Jiang Buli's book "The Stolen Case of Cixi's Mausoleum", No. 51 Luminous Pearl weighs four liang, two qian and seven.
It's worth 10.8 million taels. If you compare it with the current price of silver, it's about 800 million."
Tao Guoan was shocked when he heard that, 800 million? That was 800 million in the late Qing Dynasty. How much is it worth now?
"Nature is a priceless treasure, immeasurable." Xi Yangrong said: "It's a pity that it was stolen and its whereabouts are still unknown."
Everyone felt a pity after hearing this. Such a treasure cannot open people's eyes. It is really a great regret in life.
