Golden Forbidden Land: I am at the highest level, exploring the secrets of immortality

What did he mean by this?

I asked him who those people who were following me were. They had set fire to Li Da Kui's house at the beginning. Now I felt that I was being watched.

"Humph!"

The man in the suit sneered, but I couldn't see his expression clearly.

He didn't continue to talk, but got into the car, leaving me alone, and drove away from my sight.

I held the jade pendant in my hand, and it was cold.

It got dark quickly.

Mo Lan hadn't contacted me for several days, as if he had evaporated from the face of the earth. Not only them, but also Li Da Kui, seemed to have disappeared. He was arranged by Mo Lan to the shipping company to investigate the smuggling of that batch of cultural relics, but there was no news.

I found a cheap hotel to stay in these days.

By the way, I asked about their news.

For some reason, the whole Kyoto seemed a little desolate. It was already late autumn, and there was a dead silence.

I looked at the box, which I had carried out of the cellar. I was afraid of being followed these days, so I had not gone out. Fortunately, these days were relatively quiet.

"Jade pendant? Key?"

I was a little surprised.

"Dongdong!"

I knocked on the box, and it still made a dull sound, as if it was empty, but it was a little strange, without the texture of metal.

"What's in it?"

I was a little puzzled. I carefully put the double fish jade pendant on the concave place, and it really fit perfectly. However, after I put the jade pendant on, there was no response. The fish-shaped pattern on the jade pendant and the relief around the box formed a very strange pattern.

In the picture, a pool of clear water and swimming fish seemed to be offering sacrifices, but some strange people around were holding forks and chains, staring at the jade pendant with ferocious faces, very horrified.

"What do you mean?"

I stroked the pattern, and a chill came.

Why can't it be opened?

I was very surprised. If this is really a key, why can't I open the box? Is there any other mechanism or hint? I looked at the box carefully, but I didn't find any other keyholes or anything like that.

I have some knowledge of ancient box research, but this box is the first time I have seen it, and I have no experience. However, I can use some modern high-tech to force it open, but it may damage the things inside. That would be more trouble than it is, and it is not my original intention.

At this time, I thought of a person.

Shan Haozi.

He is my college classmate. His family has been locksmiths for generations. He didn't learn much other skills, but he learned a lot of skills from his ancestors. If someone in the school doesn't bring the key to the dormitory, he will definitely find him. It is absolutely right.

After graduation, it is said that he went to Kyoto.

I took a bottle of Lao Baigan and went to find him. After searching for a long time, I found his address, which was in a small alley. At that time, he was unrecognizable. No, I almost couldn't recognize him.

At that time, he was picking the lock at the door of a luxurious villa.

"What are you doing?"

I stopped him.

"Ahem... Brother, what are you doing?" The man seemed very alert and turned his head slowly, but after looking at me for a long time, he smiled, "Brother, you are not honest."

"How could you do this?"

I thought he was a pickpocket or something.

"You misunderstood... I didn't bring the key." He smiled.

I frowned and looked at this villa. It was worth a lot, especially in a big city like Kyoto. The housing prices are simply beyond the reach of people like us, so how could this kid have such a big villa?

Soon, he opened the door.

As a result, after entering, I found that the furnishings, some daily necessities and photos inside showed that the owner of this villa was really a mountain rat.

"Okay, you kid."

I looked around, it was magnificent and magnificent, and it was completely a high-end place.

"Let's drink."

He opened a bottle of 1982 Lafite and poured me a glass. "Cheers!"

"Great, you've been doing well for less than a year since graduation?" I was shocked. I never expected it.

"Ahem, hard to explain."

He coughed for a while and drank the wine in one gulp.

"Tell me how you made your fortune. Let us learn from you." I stared at the murals, ancient vases, and crystals.

"Nothing special."

He sighed.

After graduation, he originally came to Kyoto to hang out. He met a rich girl and they got married. Soon, they moved to this villa. But the rich girl got seriously ill and had no money for treatment, so she died. Shan Haozi inherited all her property.

"There was also a company, but it was sold."

He added.

I don't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing for him, so I didn't ask much.

Only then did I remember my original intention. We talked a lot about college and the girls in the front row of the class. Shan Haozi also asked about my archaeological trip to the northwest. He was going to sign up at that time, but he didn't have the chance, so he missed it.
