Chapter 38 Crystal Curtain

"After so many years, we are all getting old. I wonder if you, Su Qin, can still carry a sword?"

"How about we try and see if you are faster than the thirty-three throwing knives hidden in your clothes?"

"My sword is fast?"

Xiao Tuan narrowed his eyes and said lightly, "I didn't expect that the person Wang Xiansheng found was you."

"Why, it can't be me, not just me, but him as well," the beggar Liu pointed at Liu Yushan with his sword.

According to the etiquette of the world, the two parties greeted each other first. Xiao Tuantou was senior to Liu Yushan, but his reputation in the world was far inferior to that of the Qi Liu family in Tianjin.

"Sir, can this beggar beggar?" Chen Jiansheng seemed to have thought of something, and his expression became serious.

Xiao Tuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Tell me your conditions." He looked a little afraid. I knew how much I weighed, and I also knew that what he was really afraid of were the helpers who had brought him here.

She looked at him and said with a cold expression: "Our conditions are simple. Hand over the three brothers of the Sun family, and then we will share half of the contents in the bronze coffin."

"Is there anything else? If this is all you want, I agree." Xiao Tuotou said coldly.

He shook his head and said, "That's all."



"Sir!" Chen Jiansheng jumped out and pointed at us, "There are so many of us! Why should we agree to their conditions? Sir, how should you explain this to the meeting?"

"Snapped!"

"Sir," Chen Jiansheng covered one side of his face, his face full of disbelief.

Xiao Tuan didn't even look at Chen Jiansheng. He said calmly: "I keep my word. We only want the body in the coffin, and other burial items belong to you."

Although I am unwilling to do so, I can clearly see the situation in front of me. This is what both sides are afraid of. Once they really take action, not one or two people will die. At the same time, I also know very well that if there is no Tianjin Qi Liu and the beggar,

Liu, they will never make any terms with the leader. In the final analysis, Xiao Tuantou still looks down on the leader and our tomb robbing business.

Ten minutes later, the two sides stood on opposite sides. The atmosphere between them seemed calm, but in fact, there was an undercurrent. No one knew whether the other side would suddenly take action, and everyone was on guard.

After listening to Tou Tou's words, Xiao Tou Tou glanced at the partitions in the bronze coffin. He turned his head and asked Chen Jiansheng, "Are they right? Where is the bronze ax now."

Chen Jiansheng hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Sir, I guess no one will believe me if I tell you. I really picked it up by accident. I buried it first to lure Chen Hong into taking the bait. I didn't expect that those beasts would dig it up and take it away later."

.Sir, you also know that I suffered a lot in order to train those beasts."

"This is not difficult," Liu Yushan walked out and said, "As long as the things are still in their hands, there is a way to get them."

Then he whistled, and not long after, a mandrill came running in with a pendant hanging on its neck.

At this time, I noticed something. When he whistled, the bald eagle on the woman's shoulders flapped its wings several times in succession. She looked restless. The woman who called herself Wen comforted her several times before she got better.

Liu Yushan touched the mandrill's head and said calmly: "Go and bring the things."

The mandrill got the order and left.

Time passed very quickly, maybe less than half an hour later, the mandrill came back again. Compared with before, this mandrill had many more wounds on his body, his eyes and nose were scratched, and his face was bleeding. The wounds looked shocking.

.

Spreading his hands, Liu Yushan picked up a bronze object from the mandrill. This thing was the bronze ax that had been stolen before.

For example, the bronze chime set I encountered before is still functioning after more than two thousand years. From this point, we can see how powerful the mechanism art was back then.

At this moment, this bronze coffin is like a large mechanism box, and the key to open the mechanism box is already in our hands.

"Yunfeng, come on," he suddenly handed me the bronze ax.

Everyone's eyes instantly focused on me.

I felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by so many people at the same time, but I didn’t say anything. I stretched out my hand and inserted the bronze ax into the small hole in the coffin partition.

"Katan."

The bronze ax and the small hole fit perfectly together, neither big nor small, as if they were one body.

I first tried twisting it to the left, but there was no response. Then I tried twisting it to the right, but still nothing happened.

I was sweating on my forehead and my hands were shaking a little.

At this time, Yao Yumen reminded me: "Although the machine boxes were complex and sophisticated in the past, they all had some flaws. Yunfeng, try moving them up and down first, and then try aiming them at a 45-degree angle to the left."

After repositioning the bronze ax, I listened to Sister Yu and started to try again.

A little while later, as soon as I turned the bronze ax to a 45-degree angle, I heard two clicks, followed by the sound of a chain being pulled.

"It's open!" In an instant, everyone looked over.

Pulled by invisible chains, the bronze partitions in this coffin began to open to the right little by little.

To everyone's surprise, what appeared under the partition was a gold-threaded jade mat. The gold threads on this mat were intact, and the jade pieces were blue. Upon closer inspection, it looked like there was a person covered under the mat.

The jade garment with golden threads was only invented in the Han Dynasty. Only when you see the actual object in front of you do you realize that the prototype of the jade garment with golden threads existed as early as the Western Zhou Dynasty.

"You go," Xiao Tuantou waved to a middle-aged man next to him.

The man swallowed and looked a little scared. There might be a corpse from more than two thousand years ago under the mat. I guess whoever did this would be a little scared.

I asked the old man from Xiangxi in a low voice, "Master Zhao, what do you think this is? Is there a corpse under the jade mat?"

The old man clutched the money in his hand and looked a little unhappy.

At this moment, Yao Yumen pulled me back.

"What's wrong, Sister Yu?"

Yao Yumen's eyes were solemn. She showed me her ancestral compass. I was shocked when I saw the compass in her hand, including sewing needle, north needle, straight needle, and three needles.

They all gathered on a line, and this line pointed directly at the bronze coffin.

This phenomenon is very rare on the compass. Sister Yu told me in a low voice that usually when the compass is working, only the straight needle, that is, the longest needle will swing left and right, but in this case, the three needles are on one line.

There is a name in Feng Shui called a line of Yin.

I quickly asked her what would happen if there was a yin line on the compass.

Sister Yu leaned into my ear and whispered: "Yunfeng, remember, if something happens in a while, you turn around and run away, you know? The road you heard when there was thunder may lead to the ground."

I nodded, my heart pounding, and my nervous palms became sweaty.

The man slowly stretched out his hand to uncover the jade mat. Suddenly, his hand froze in mid-air.

At this moment, the flashlights in everyone's hands began to flicker. I don't know if the battery was low or something, but the flashlights became flickering.
