The first thousand two hundred and ninety-first chapters salvage the gold box
When his eyes entered the box, Xue Chen was surprised to find that there was no trace of well water inside. It was very dry. There was no trace of moisture.
"How can it be?!"
This once again presented him with a situation that was difficult to understand.
From the corrosion marks on the outside of the box, it is certain that this gold box has sunk at the bottom of the well for at least hundreds of years. However, the inside of the box has not been corroded by the well water. Is this possible? Even modern technology can do this.
It's all unknown.
I calmed down a little and continued to observe the situation inside the box. It was indeed very dry. I could see that there were a lot of things in the box. Naturally, it was not gold. The items were very messy. There seemed to be books, rolled up scrolls, and
Inkstone and brush washer...
If it hadn't sunk to the bottom of the well and was still a gold box, Xue Chen would have regarded it as something left by a scholar in ancient times.
After looking at it for a few times, he withdrew his gaze and made a decision. It was inevitable to take out the box, and it would not be too late to take a closer look at it then.
He took a look at the sky and saw that it was just getting dark. In order not to attract other people's attention, it was better to wait until midnight before taking action. However, in order to avoid any accidents, he did not leave here. There happened to be a resting table for pedestrians on the roadside not far away.
I walked over to the bench and sat down, waiting for it to get dark.
Before he sat down, there were already two people sitting there, a man and a woman, who seemed to be lovers. They were whispering to each other and letting out bursts of low laughter from time to time.
Xue Chen had no interest in listening to the whispers. He was thinking about the golden box he saw under the ancient well.
But the man and woman seemed dissatisfied with Xue Chen sitting aside, feeling that it was affecting their intimacy.
"Hey, let me tell you, can you get out of the way, stay away, and not be an eyesore?" The man turned around, glanced at Xue Chen with a look of unwillingness, and shouted in an unhappy tone.
Xue Chen glanced back coldly and ignored it.
"Hey, you're deaf. Didn't you hear what I said? Don't be an eyesore. Go cool down and get out of here. Do you hear me?" The man stood up quickly with a fierce look on his face. The woman next to him crossed her legs.
At this moment, he glanced at Xue Chen displeased.
There is not only this one chair on this street, but this one is the closest to the ancient well. Changing it doesn't matter to Xue Chen, but the man just opened his mouth and made him stop thinking about changing seats. Now he sees the man and wants to take action.
I won't even change it anymore, there's nothing to do anyway, just have some fun.
And at this moment, suddenly, a man rushed over in a hurry, and slapped the man on the face, causing him to stagger and sit on the ground.
A woman on the side screamed: "How dare you..."
"Go away! What, you're not convinced? If you're not convinced, go find someone to deal with it. My name is Ma Liu."
The one who suddenly appeared was Ma Liu, scolding loudly with a sullen face, and several younger brothers followed him.
The man and woman probably knew Ma Liu, so they suddenly became exhausted. The woman helped the man up and left in a hurry.
"You?" Xue Chen looked up and saw Ma Liu suddenly coming out.
Seeing Xue Chen again, Ma Liu forced out an unnatural smile: "It's me, it's me."
He was so frightened that he spent a whole day in fear. Seeing that nothing weird happened again, he thought that the few kowtows he had made must have played a role, so he found a few boys to go out to drink and relax. He had just returned from the hotel.
I saw it when I came out, and that's how I happened.
"Those two bitches without eyes, if Mr.
I don't care, otherwise why would I torment him so much? After much thought, it's better to lower my status to avoid suffering anymore.
People must be able to bend and stretch.
"That's no need." Xue Chen waved his hand nonchalantly.
Ma Liu didn't know what Xue Chen was doing sitting here. He thought about it and said, "Mr.
"You're welcome." Xue Chen looked at Ma Liu with a hint of brilliance in his eyes, "Don't you have something to do with Yulong Cave? As for me, I have had some unpleasant experiences with Yulong Cave recently, so you should stay away from me.
Okay, otherwise be careful that the Bai family won't let you go."
As soon as he heard this, the expression on Ma Liu's face immediately became tangled, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly: "Well, then I will go back first, I won't disturb you, I won't disturb you anymore." After that, he turned around and left.
.
After Ma Liu left, Xue Chen sat there alone, took out his mobile phone and looked at the circle of friends, and saw the message from Gao Dewei. It seemed that the Taoyuan fresh food business in Canada had started, and the business was very good.
While waiting, one after another people appeared not far away and stared at him. He thought about it and guessed that it was probably the man who was slapped by Ma Liu who was unwilling to give up and wanted to regain his place, but
I didn't dare to come to him openly, for fear of Ma Liu's revenge.
In this way, Xue Chen worked here for almost six or seven hours. Finally, the bustling street became quiet. Basically all the surrounding shops were closed, and not a single pedestrian was seen on the street. Only
After getting off Xue Chen, he sat alone on a bench on the street. If any passers-by saw him, they might be scared.
"Phew, it's time to move."
Xue Chen got up and walked back to the ancient well, climbed over the iron fence and went in. He stood next to the well mouth and looked down.
"I want to see what's wrong with this box."
The power of control rushed down the ancient well, breaking the water surface, and went all the way down to the bottom of the well. It wrapped the golden box and slowly pulled it up. When the golden box came out of the water, Xue Chen's heart skipped a beat.
He palpitated and licked his lips.
Soon, the box arrived at the wellhead and fell into his hand. It weighed about thirty or forty kilograms. It was not very heavy, but it felt very heavy to Xue Chen and was full of weight. The box was in hand.
He resisted the urge to open it now, and instead put it into the Jade Eye Space.
When he jumped out of the fence and was about to leave, he looked back in a direction behind him. It seemed that several people were walking over just now, and then left again. However, all his attention was focused on the box and he didn't pay attention.
At an intersection on the same street as Xue Chen, there were five people standing. One of them was the man who was slapped on the ground by Bai Ma Liuyi. At this time, he was looking at the other man complainingly: "
Brother Xu, didn't you say you wanted to help me find my place and beat that kid up? What a great opportunity just now, he's still there in the middle of the night."
"It's not that I don't help you, it's just..." The man named Brother Xu looked confused and frightened, and his expression was not very good. He said to a few people around him, "You all know that I have always had better eyesight. You
You also saw him jumping into the fence of the ancient well..."
"So what happened? He didn't jump into the well. Didn't he jump out again?"
"But, you haven't seen it. He got something out of the well. It looks like... it's a box." Brother Xu shuddered. He didn't know if it was an illusion. There didn't seem to be anything on the box.
Tie a rope and just float...
"Forget it for today. You see, Ma Liu is polite to this person. He must not be an ordinary person. Isn't it just a slap? Forget it."
Brother Xu waved his hand, not intending to get involved. The scene in the night made him feel a little cold. He had a faint feeling that he had made the right decision by not rushing forward just now.
"Brother Xu, you said he fished out a box from the well. What kind of box could it be? Is it some kind of treasure? An antique or something? I heard that the well is hundreds of years old, and the old man said
He said, that wealthy family is really big. The compound alone occupies a small part of the county. Then it caught fire and we searched for it all day and night but it couldn't be extinguished. Otherwise, it would have become a tourist attraction by now," said one of the thugs he brought.
.
"Antique?" Brother Xu was also excited and excited. If it is really an antique, it must be a valuable thing.
However, the box has been taken away. What can he do? Come to ask for it? He asked for half of it in person. He was afraid that he would be embarrassed if he couldn't get it, but he just forgot about it? He felt a little unwilling to accept it.
.
How can we get some benefits from this matter? Brother Xu thought about it deeply, and he really came up with a solution that was not a solution.
Immediately, Brother Xu ordered a few helpers to get busy, found a large piece of wood, and some red paint. He took a brush and wrote a paragraph on the board.
"I saw you fished the box out of the well. If you don't want others to know that you did it and prevent the box from being confiscated by the state, let's meet in person, right at the chair where you have been sitting for a long time."
After writing the words on the sign, Brother Xu arranged for people to carry it to the ancient well and set it up there.
Brother Xu looked at the sign and patted the dust on his hand. He felt that he was so clever. If nothing else happened, tomorrow morning, the whole county would definitely spread the news. In this way, the person who took the box would definitely also
Know.
He thought that since the man was fishing undercover for the box, he definitely didn’t want others to know about it, so he would definitely agree to meet with him. Once they met, he would have a chance to get money: “That box must be worth hundreds of thousands anyway.
, it would be good to get tens of thousands of dollars."
Hundreds of thousands? How could it be hundreds of thousands? Even a gold box costs more than that!
After Xue Chen returned to the hotel room, he felt a little anxious and took out the gold box from the Yutong space. Under the light, the corroded and black box had some green algae growing on it, but it could not cover the box.
The exquisite and gorgeous patterns themselves exude a strong atmosphere of time. (To be continued)
