-------------------------------------------

It was none other than Bi Jiahao and Xiao Ma who lived next door.

They also got the news from Bi Yue, and heard that Wang Ding had obtained the treasure.

"Brother Wang Ding, I heard that you went out and made a good item and came back? Why don't you tell me to go with you..."

When Wang Ding was concentrating on looking at the ivory carving, Bi Jiahao's voice suddenly sounded next to his ear. He looked up, only to find that Bi Jiahao and Xiao Ma had entered the room at some point.

"I thought you guys were resting. Didn't you have to participate in the fair tomorrow, so I didn't bother you... And it was Bi Yue who called me to go out. Are we the two of you? Don't you want us to walk more?"

Wang Ding said it humorously, but Bi Jiahao had no reason to say what was wrong with Wang Ding.

"What treasure did you miss?"

"There is no treasure, it's just a tooth carving." Wang Ding smiled wryly.

"Ivory carving." Pony first surrounded him and looked at him. "Good thing, really good thing. Such a large ivory Buddha sculpture is really rare, and judging from the shape and quality of the tooth, it should be something from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Boss Wang, you missed it so much..."

Xiao Ma also has a lot of research on antiques. When he said this, Bi Jiahao also seemed very excited. He didn't know where he got the magnifying glass. Bi Jiahao pushed the magnifying glass and looked around the tooth carving for a long time.

At the same time, Bi Jiahao looked at Wang Ding again with his eyes, this Wang Ding is simply magical, he can find good things everywhere he goes, this tooth carving is obviously an old object in China.It was actually able to be found by him in Myanmar.And he can do so well in gambling stones, this guy is simply the best.

Turning his eyes, Bi Jiahao actually wanted Wang Ding to sell this item to him. Seventy-eight million yuan was nothing to Bi Jiahao, but Bi Jiahao also knew that Wang Ding would not give him such a good thing, so Looked a few more times.After Wang Ding's eyes were so firm and unchanging, Bi Jiahao also gave up his plan to buy this superb tooth carving from Wang Ding.

"It's a good thing. Then you have to keep it well. Although the security of this hotel is good, I still suggest you put it in the hotel safe."

"Well, I see, but I still need to take a look at the tooth carving first, thank you Brother Bi."

"Well, it's okay, then you continue to look, Xiao Ma and I just came over to take a look. Then let's go first." Bi Jiahao just came to take a look at what good things Wang Ding missed, and when he saw it, he knew that Wang Ding would not Changing hands means there is no intention of continuing to stay.

He told Wang Ding to take a good rest and prepare for tomorrow's business offer. Wang Ding said it well, but also sent the two out of the room and closed the door.Back in front of the ivory carving, Wang Ding looked at it again. The mysterious wax pill in the ivory carving really made him feel itchy.

If he didn't take it out to look at the ball of paper today, Wang Ding couldn't rest well.

"Brother Wang Ding, this place doesn't seem to be touched. Otherwise, it wouldn't be such a rule, would it?"

In fact, just now I saw Wang Ding sizing up the armpits of the ivory figure, and Qian Le also discovered the secret, but just now Bi Jiahao and Xiao Ma came over, so Qian Le didn't say anything.

Qian Le discovered the repaired part. Although the traces of the repairs have faded, Qian Le can still see that the shape does not seem to be caused by bumps.

"Huh? You can see it too? It really doesn't look like a crack from a touch. It looks like it was dug out, a bit like a small door that was deliberately opened. The ancients often liked to hide treasures in the belly of the Buddha statues enshrined. Do you think there will be something in it?"

Wang Ding glanced at Qian Le, and deliberately used words to guide him. Wang Ding didn't want to take out the contents without telling Qian Le, so he had to have a suitable reason

"Brother Wang Ding, are you kidding me..."

Qian Le doesn't really believe it, it's okay to hide some treasure in the belly of the Buddha statue.

"Joke? What I said is true, haven't you heard of it?..."

Wang Ding said that the ancient people often liked to hide treasures in the belly of the Buddha statues enshrined.

In Chinese history, Buddhism was introduced to China from India during the Han Dynasty. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Sui, Tang and Five Dynasties, the development reached its peak. The level of Buddhism surpassed that of India, and China replaced India as the center of world Buddhism. At that time, the status of Buddhists was quite high. Almost all temples owned a large amount of land and did not pay taxes.

At that time, although there were many eminent monks like Xuanzang and Jianzhen, there were more and more Buddhist scum, bullying men and women, and occupying good farmland. The emperor believed in Buddhism, and the local officials Most of them turn a blind eye and close their eyes, and don't ask questions at all.

And those Hua monks, after collecting a large amount of gold, silver and jewels, in order to hide them, they used the name of casting Buddhas to burn and cast many large bronze Buddhas. It looks like a solid Buddha statue, but in fact, it is hidden inside. Mystery, the stomachs of the Buddha statues are all empty, and the huge wealth collected by the monks is hidden inside.

So this is history.

It is also because of this that there are three most famous Buddhist extermination campaigns in Chinese history. These three exterminations happened precisely during the Southern and Northern Dynasties and Tang Wuzong period. Almost all of them were destroyed, and millions of monks and nuns were ordered to return to secular life, which almost led to the extinction of Buddhism in China.

Investigating the reason, the official statement is naturally caused by the inherent political characteristics of "theocracy is absolutely subordinate to the king's authority" in Chinese society. The emperor felt that his authority was challenged by the illusory theocracy, so he wanted to destroy the Buddha. .

That's a long way to go, but these histories and historical facts are enough to prove that treasures can be hidden in the belly of figures and Buddha statues.

"Brother Wang Ding, so what you said is true? But there shouldn't be any treasure hidden in this Buddha statue, because it's so small..."

Qian Le listened to the story Wang Ding told with great interest, but he gestured to the repaired place, but he didn't believe there was anything hidden there.

"Who knows if there is one? Only by taking out the piece of ivory that was filled in can we know..."

Wang Ding continued following Qian Le's words.It's just that it's not easy to take out the contents without damaging the Buddha sculpture, because the silicone used for the repair has been completely integrated with the ivory, and it is very difficult to dig it out.

Qian Le saw Wang Ding's frown.He couldn't help laughing, and said, "Brother Wang Ding, do you really want to take out the repaired ivory? I have a way."

"Of course, if you think about it, who would open a hole for this fine Buddha sculpture? Maybe there is something good in it. We won't suffer if we dig it out. I'll find someone to re-create it." Repair it, the workmanship is definitely better than this..."

What Wang Ding said was the truth, this thing was repaired with silica gel.It is true that this ivory Buddha statue has been ruined. There are many materials in modern times, and it can be repaired so that people can't see that it has been repaired at all.

"Okay, Brother Wang Ding, if you want to get rid of me, you have a trick. You wait for me for a while, and I'll be right back..."

Qian Le gestured for the repaired place.After speaking with Wang Ding, he walked out of the room.

"This kid..."

Wang Ding shook his head, and looked at the thing with some distress. He didn't own the thing before, and he wasn't particularly impatient, but now he put it in front of his eyes.But he couldn't take out the things, Wang Ding was in a state of desperation.

When Qian Le was looking for things, Wang Ding also tried to use his own ability to identify the paper balls, but the paper balls were kneaded together. Although Wang Ding's current abilities are very powerful, he couldn't spread the paper balls first. Open it, and then read the words on it.If my own ability can move objects, maybe it is true... But there is still a difficulty, the space here is too small, it is estimated that it is still impossible to operate.

Sorrow!

"Brother Wang Ding, I'm back..."

About 20 minutes later, when Wang Ding was still frowning, Qian Le walked into the room. Wang Ding's eyes lit up when he saw that he was holding an alcohol stove in his right hand.

"Qian Le, do you want to burn the needle red and then melt away the silicone filler? But we don't know how deep the ivory was dug out..."

Wang Ding thought it was a good idea at first, but when he thought about it, the piece of ivory stuffed into it was six to seven centimeters long, and ordinary needles couldn't penetrate it at all, but the long needles couldn't penetrate it. It is too thick, there is no way to insert it, this method is still not advisable.

"Is this long enough?"

Qian Le raised his left hand, and Wang Ding realized that Qian Le's left hand was pinching an extremely thin steel wire with a length of twenty to thirty centimeters on the two fingers of his left hand. Wang Ding flicked the steel wire with his hand, and found The toughness is excellent, and I can't help being overjoyed, all the problems have been solved now.

"This steel wire can do it! Good boy, you have a good job. If you do this, there is a treasure in it, and you will be counted..."

Wang Ding took out the lighter from his pocket, lit the alcohol stove, and Qian Le put one end of the thin steel wire on the wick to burn it. The thing itself conducts heat, but within ten seconds, A section of steel wire was still red from being burned.

Wang Ding looked at the steel wire in Qian Le's hand, and reminded him: "I guess the length is not enough, if you burn it a little more, it will melt faster..."

The steel wire in Qian Le's hand began to swim above the flames. After a while, the three to five centimeters of the front end of the steel wire was burned red.Qian Le walked down again, and now the red-hot distance was even further away.

"Give it to me..."

Of course, Wang Ding had to hold the knife himself, and he had the ability to see through. Wang Ding would not burn the paper ball and destroy it.

Put the ivory sculpture horizontally on the ground, reach out to take the steel wire from Qian Le, and insert it into the gap of the silicone repaired. The red-hot steel wire is like cutting tofu with a knife. The silicone inside was melted.

Along with an unpleasant smell of burnt rubber, a wisp of green smoke came out from Wang Ding's hand. Wang Ding moved the steel wire along the gap and drew it aside, knowing that the hand felt very jerky, as if the heat was not enough. At that time, Wang Ding quickly pulled out the steel wire. At this time, a layer of jelly-like substance was attached to the steel wire.

"Continue to burn... Be careful not to damage the inside"

Wang Ding handed the steel wire to Qian Le, stood up and opened the window of the hotel room, regardless of the air conditioner in the room, the smell of burning rubber was really unpleasant.

This steel wire conducts heat quickly, but the heat dissipation is also extremely fast, basically burning red once.Only two or three centimeters of silica gel could be dissolved. After Wang Ding and Qian Le worked hard for more than two hours, they finally melted all the silica gel that was fused with the ivory.

At this time, Qian Le took out a small knife like a wolf's fang, and pried the piece of ivory stuffed in as a filling.

The blade of the small knife is extremely thin, and can be inserted to a depth of about one centimeter.With the flipping of Qian Le's wrist, the piece of ivory protruded little by little.Finally, under the principle of leverage between the blade and the ivory wall, there was a clear "pop", and the small piece of ivory was picked out, and a circle of three to four centimeters square was exposed under the armpit of the ivory carving. shaped hole.

"Brother Wang Ding, is there anything in here?"

Naturally, the hand couldn't reach in, Qian Le hugged the ivory carving upside down, and shook the small hole downwards, but nothing came out of it.

Wang Ding did not answer.Instead, he took the burnt black steel wire and went to the bathroom to clean it. After drying it, he twisted a section of the steel wire into a hook shape, and said to Qian Le, "Raise it a little higher, the hole will Down, let me take a look with this thing..."

Whether there is anything in it, Wang Ding naturally knows.And he also knew that the reason why the wax pellets were not poured out by Qian Le was because when the silica gel was dissolved just now, some silica gel dripped onto the wax pellets. Although the wax pellets did not melt, they stuck to the abdominal wall... …

Cooling of silica gel.It took a while. After Wang Ding stirred the hole with the thin steel wire, two eyeball-shaped wax pills rolled out from the inside.

"Is there really something?!"

Qian Le kept staring at it with his head turned sideways, seeing Wang Dingzhen fiddle with something out of it, he was so surprised that he almost didn't throw out the ivory Buddha statue in his hand.

"Brother Wang Ding, what is this?"

Carefully lower the carving to the ground.Qian Le leaned in front of Wang Ding, carefully looked at the two wax pills that Wang Ding took off in the heart of his left hand, with a puzzled expression on his face.

This wax ball is not very well made. There are cracks everywhere on the white wax skin. It looks a bit like it was burned with an ordinary candle at home, kneaded into a ball, and then dried. From the cracks, you can faintly see it. into the ball of paper inside.

"You ask me, I don't know what it is, if you pinch it, you will know..."

As Wang Ding spoke, he couldn't help being excited.The answer to the riddle was in his own hands. Wang Ding felt a little excited, took a deep breath, and pinched a wax pill with his right thumb and index finger. With a little force, the wax pill shattered, and white dry wax came out. It fell to the ground, but what remained in Wang Ding's hand was a rolled up paper ball that turned yellowish in color after being folded several times.This is the paper ball!

"Is it a ball of paper?"

Qian Le was a little disappointed. He thought there were two golden beans or some kind of diamond hidden here, but he didn't expect that it was just a ball of paper.

"I'll take a look at this."

Qian Le will also crush the other wax pill.He was just about to rush to open the paper ball, but Wang Ding stopped him and said, "Don't worry, this paper ball is placed here, maybe it's something, is there any harmful substance on it, or can't touch it. Wear gloves!"

Wang Ding calmly took out a pair of white gloves from the suitcase he brought and put them on his hands. He couldn't be nervous at this moment, and then Wang Ding pulled out a magnifying glass. Wang Ding had a feeling in his heart, There seems to be a big secret hidden in these two balls of paper.

After getting ready, Wang Ding carefully folded a ball of paper under the attention of Qian Le's curious eyes. If you are not careful, it will break.

Although folded into a ball, it looks very small, but after Wang Ding spread it out on the table, it was as big as a magazine page, and he didn't need a magnifying glass in his hand. Wang Ding also recognized it, it was a map , mountains, rivers, terrain, and railways and roads are all drawn in great detail, but... in some markings, "Japanese" is used.

What bird language is this?

Although Wang Ding didn't understand Japanese, the Japanese language itself evolved from Chinese characters. Except for some nondescript characters that were changed, Wang Ding could recognize the rest, so Wang Ding probably recognized that it was Japanese.And those marked texts seem to be the place names of Myanmar.

Qian Le was also a little surprised. After looking at it for a while, he said, "Brother Wang Ding, this is a blueprint..."

"Nonsense, of course I know this is a blueprint..."

Wang Ding was dumbfounded by Qian Le's words. The blueprint is so detailed that anyone can see it.

"No, I mean this is a military drawing, drawn by the Japanese #, the time should be in the 40s of the last century..."

"Military blueprints, for war?" Wang Ding naturally knew that the small island country had waged many wars of aggression, and Myanmar had undoubtedly been reduced to the hinterland of the Japanese#. Thinking about it, what Qian Le said was correct. It is an introduction to the topography of Myanmar, but it was definitely a very important confidential document at the time, otherwise it would not be hidden in this silica gel.

"Leave this one alone, isn't there another one? Let's see what the other one is..." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation..)
