My Beauty Artifact

"What do you understand? If you could understand, then Sister Yanran wouldn't have to come here specially to find Mr. Chen and find those experts to decipher the mystery!" Zheng Xue gave Zhang Chao an angry look, and said in a cold voice.

Zhang Chao chuckled: "This thing is nothing more than an antique, what's the mystery?"

Nangong Yanran hugged her knees, curled up, sat on the sofa opposite, and pouted: "If it was just an antique, there wouldn't be so many people who would take risks and even send out terrorists to hijack them!"

Zhang Chao frowned, and tilted his head to look at the bronze tripod again.Could it be?Can this thing still be an Arabian magic lamp?

Nangong Yanran sighed, with a look of melancholy on her face, she shook her head and said: "Before my grandfather died, he was going to tell me the secrets and mysteries in this copper tripod. But... it was halfway through."

"Grandpa has been studying the secrets of this bronze tripod for half his life. After getting this tripod and an ancient book by chance, grandpa has been obsessed with the research of this tripod, and let go of all family affairs!"

Nangong Yanran raised her pretty face slightly, looked at Zhang Chao and said, "I must help Grandpa decipher the secret of this copper tripod. This is his lifetime wish."

Zhang Chao smiled disapprovingly.People, it doesn't matter if you like something, just be afraid of being obsessed and addicted to it.Just like Nangong Yanran's grandfather, who was obsessed to death, but also influenced the next generation to follow in his footsteps.

"What about the ancient book? If you find that ancient book, you will know the secret of the copper tripod?"

"The ancient book was stolen... When grandpa was seriously ill and hospitalized, that ancient book was stolen at home!" Nangong Yanran said, looking at Zhang Chao.

"The monitoring outside the villa has no trace of any suspicious personnel at all. In addition to the killers I met at the airport when I came to City Y this time, as well as the internal agents who were placed in my bodyguards. I think... the behind-the-scenes planning of this incident People, should be my family members."

"House thief?" Zhang Chao was taken aback.

No wonder Nangong Yanran wanted to accompany her back to Shanghai by herself!

"Can you...can roughly guess who it is?" Zhang Chao asked softly, crossing his arms.

Nangong Yanran nodded slowly, looked at Zheng Xue beside her and said, "I was kidnapped that day when Xue'er and I were kidnapped. The robber received a call, and Xue'er heard the other party's voice... Maybe it was my uncle."

Zhang Chao frowned puzzled.

"When my grandfather was telling me the secret of this copper tripod, my uncle was cutting an orange beside him. As a result, when my grandfather was speaking halfway, my uncle suddenly cut his finger, and the entire fingertip was cut off. I ran to Find a doctor, and when you come back, grandpa will already..." Nangong Yanran said with a look of sadness on her face.

Zhang Chao shook his head inexplicably.For an antique, intrigues, my family members are hiding each other's minds, mutual suspicion?incomprehensible.

"What kind of secret is it? You just run around with this thing, what can you find out?"

"The ancient characters on this copper tripod have yet to find someone to decipher the meaning." Nangong Yanran sighed and said helplessly.

ancient script?Zhang Chao was taken aback, and tilted his head to look at the copper tripod, on which some patterns were engraved not very clearly.This is text?

It turned out that Zhang Chao thought it was some decorative patterns!Curiously holding it in his hand again, Zhang Chao slid his fingers along the pattern of the copper tripod, feeling...

"Huh?" Zhang Chao called out in wonder.This... there is really some mystery in it!

Just when Zhang Chao was curiously thinking that these patterns were ancient characters, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and then some unfamiliar and strange things quickly formed in his mind, and the words gathered by the patterns on the copper tripod, It also came to mind bit by bit.

"Tongshan Yushu..." Zhang Chao whispered, turned the copper tripod, and continued to touch it.

"The cliff of the corpse pit..."

Zhang Chao spun continuously, swept his fingers over the bronze tripod again, blinked and said, "Sifang tides..."

On the last plane, Zhang Chao quickly swept his fingers up and down, and after feeling those notches, he looked at Nangong Yanran in puzzlement and said, "There are four of these copper tripods?"

Nangong Yanran looked at Zhang Chao in shock: "You...do you understand ancient characters?"

"I understand a little, I understand a little..." Zhang Chao teased as he flicked the edge of the copper tripod lightly.

"Then what you just said...is it the words engraved on it?" Nangong Yanran stared at Zhang Chao and asked repeatedly.

Zhang Chao nodded slowly: "However... it seems that the engraving is incomplete. There are half a word before and after each sentence, so the meaning of each sentence must be combined to know!"

Nangong Yanran nodded, sat up straight and said: "Indeed... grandpa also said that this thing has four directions. However, at the beginning, grandpa only collected two directions. The other party is in the Qin family in the capital. Where is the last party, I don't know." Clear!"

Zhang Chao casually put the copper tripod on the table, rubbed his nose and said, "Even if these things are assembled together, what's the use of knowing what is written on it!"

"All the wealth accumulated in the first emperor's life is here. This square copper tripod is the code word for the hidden treasure that the first emperor ordered people to cast." Nangong Yanran said seriously.

Zhang Chao smiled disapprovingly: "Treasure map? Sister, do you think it's a movie, a TV show, or a novel? What age is it, and you still believe in such nonsense..."

Is it the treasure left by Qin Shihuang?Zhang Chao shook his head amusedly, and looked at Nangong Yanran with pursed lips.

Nangong Yanran's face turned hot when Zhang Chao looked at her, she shook her head and smiled wryly: "I don't really believe in the secret of this treasure. But... regarding this copper tripod, these things happened one after another, these accidents happened, it seems... There really is a big secret hidden in it.”

"Why do you have to come to track down the clues? What about the rest of your family? Don't they check?" Zhang Chao asked puzzled.

Nangong Yanran blinked in a lonely way: "Only my uncle and I are left! My father...is serving his sentence."

Zhang Chao was stunned for a moment, and looked at Nangong Yanran in bewilderment, feeling extremely confused.Given the financial strength of Nangong Yanran's family, her father is still serving his sentence?

Seeing Zhang Chao's confusion, Nangong Yanran pursed her lips and smiled wryly: "Murder...with a reprieved death."

"Oh." Zhang Chao agreed softly and didn't ask any more questions.

After chatting casually for a while, Zhang Chao had a preliminary understanding of Nangong Yanran's family.The family was originally supported by Nangong Yanran's grandfather, but when the old man was about to pass on the family business to the next generation of sons, Nangong Yanran's father murdered and went to jail.And Nangong Yanran's uncle took advantage of the situation to take care of the business of the Nangong family.
