Chapter 122 Letters
Pei You on the side couldn't help but turn her head slightly and looked at her: "But what's wrong?"

"Wait, I always feel that I need to be more careful." He Lingjiang frowned, Xuan Yang would set up a mechanism in his secret passage, so what about Liu Yuan?
She stopped the movement of her hand, and brought Mingzhu to the front of the dark compartment, and checked it carefully. Sure enough, she found an almost imperceptible soft silk thread under the dark compartment.

She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked along the silk thread, and saw that the silk thread started from the dark grid and led all the way to a raised wooden block on the left side of the table.

If other people don't know it, they open the hidden grid rashly, the silk thread will be interrupted, the strength of the thread tied to the block will suddenly loosen, and the pulled block will immediately retract, as if someone pressed it on it.

I'm afraid, then the agency will be triggered.

Pei You also squatted down, grabbed the silk thread with one hand, and fixed the strength in it: "I'll pull it, you open the dark grid."

In this way, the silk thread is pulled by someone, and the mechanism can be avoided.

He Lingjiang nodded, and then he started to open the dark grid.

Apart from the hidden traps of the silk thread, it is not too complicated to open this secret grid. He Lingjiang moved his hand slightly and opened it.

In the dark compartment, there is a copper box quietly placed.

He Lingjiang stretched out his hand and was about to take out the copper box, but found that he couldn't move it.

"What's wrong?" Pei You pulled the silk thread and looked at her.

He Lingjiang exerted force on her hand again, but the copper box still remained motionless. She couldn't help but say, "This copper box is embedded in the hidden compartment and cannot be taken out."

Unexpectedly, Liu Yuan was so careful, so that even if others found this copper box, they could not easily take it away.

And the copper box is sturdy and not easy to break, it is not easy to open it with external force.

In this way, the only way to open the copper box is to find a way.

The box is not big, but half a foot square.

The two of them frowned at the copper box at the same time, and brought Mingzhu up to examine it carefully. There was nothing unusual about the box, but there was a copper lock on it.

The copper lock hangs horizontally on the box, and there is no lock hole.

The lock body is about half palm long, compact in style and exquisite in workmanship.The two ends of the main body are engraved with two small animal heads, shaped like lion heads, with rings in their mouths, with a grim expression.

There is a long shaft in the middle of the lock, and seven rotatable axles are set on the lock joints. On each axle, four characters are engraved in Xingkaiyin script, a total of seven groups of 28 characters.

"It's the Tibetan poetry lock." Pei You said, looking at the box in front of him.

Tibetan poetry locks do not have keys. There are seven copper hoops on the lock, and Chinese characters are engraved on each copper hoops. As for the poems that come out of this combination, only the locksmith and the owner of the lock will know.

The unlocker needs to turn the words on the copper hoop to form the correct verse, so that the lock nose can pass through and the lock can be opened.

It is said that it is a Tibetan poetry lock, but not all combinations are poetry, it all depends on how the craftsman and the owner set it up.

The verse of this setting may not be beautiful, or the beginning and the end may not be connected, but it is the key to unlocking.

He Lingjiang fiddled with the wheel slightly, looking at the 28 characters on it, and each group was engraved with some common wishes.

However, these seven groups of 28 characters can be combined randomly, but can form no less than a thousand kinds. How can we quickly and accurately find the correct combination and arrangement?

She tapped the copper box with her fingers.

"Do you want to try?" Pei You looked sideways at her.

He Lingjiang frowned: "There are thousands of combinations, try them one by one, I'm afraid it will take a lot of time."

But since the copper box has been found, and looking at this appearance, there is something hidden in it, there is no reason to return empty-handed.

She sighed helplessly, and said again: "Let's try it first."

After speaking, she bent down slightly and turned the axle while trying to figure it out.

Seeing this, Pei You couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

Helpless, He Lingjiang Yu is really not good at poetry and prose. Facing these 28 characters, he doesn't know what suitable poems to combine in his mind.

She turned around for a long time, but the copper lock did not open.

He Lingjiang straightened up, moved his sore neck, and said to Pei You, "Come and try."

"Okay." Pei You stepped forward. He read quite a few poems, but the arrangement was irregular, and he didn't know if it was an attempt at poems, which made him a little confused.

The two tossed the copper box for about a cup of tea, but still couldn't figure out why.

He Lingjiang looked up and looked outside, it was getting late.

After spending like this, it is difficult to guarantee that no one will discover the movement of the study.

It's better to write down all these words first, go back and think about it, and try again tomorrow night.

She stood up and just wanted to talk to Pei You, but the dim light of the pearl in her hand reflected on a painting hanging behind the desk.

Between the towering mountains, the clouds and mists are misty, and there are cranes and the cloud tops of the mountains hovering and flying. Under the nearby pines and cypresses, there is an old man with white hair and beard, sitting cross-legged under the tree.

Looking at the old man with white hair and beard, He Lingjiang couldn't help remembering that when he was traveling with his master, he had met a crazy old man.

When the old man saw her, he grabbed her and didn't let go. Fortunately, the master was by his side, so he drove him away.

She vaguely remembered a poem that the old Taoist read casually when he left: "The human body is hard to come by now, and the great road is hard to be understood now. This body is not saved for this life, but it is saved for this life!"

He Lingjiang closed his eyes and quickly rearranged the 28 characters in his mind.

At that moment, her mind suddenly became clear, and then she quickly squatted down and spelled the words on the axle into a line, "More to He Sheng," and the seven words lined up in a straight line.

Immediately afterwards, she moved her hand lightly, only to hear a light "click", and the lock shaft was pulled away by her.

This lock is open!
Pei You's eyes lit up.

He Lingjiang stretched out his hand to remove the copper lock and opened the copper box. There were several letters and a booklet in the half-foot-square copper box.

She and Pei You looked at each other and took out the things.

The letter had already been opened, and He Lingjiang moved his fingertips slightly and pulled out the letter inside.

This letter was written to Liu Yuan by someone else. She lowered her eyes and scrutinized the contents of the letter in the pearl light.

"Liu Gong, the words are like meeting each other. The situation in the court has been complicated recently, and the party's dispute has become more and more fierce, and the cost is also increasing. It seems that the copper mines in the Nanshan area are gradually shrinking, and I hope Liu Gong will take care of this matter. Just a little more thought..."

It was a letter to Liu Yuan urging him to ask for copper coins. If he wanted to come here, he had nothing to do with this Nanshan private collection case!
He Lingjiang hurriedly read the contents of the letter, and when she saw the inscription on it, she couldn't help but sigh.

Pei You brought Mingzhu closer, and his eyes shrank.

I saw a seal under the letter with the name of the writer on it.

Xiangquan Mountain people.

Most people probably don't know it, but he does know that this Xiangquan Mountain person is the prince's private number!
