Chapter 533
When I heard this, I was immediately speechless: "Master Hu, Master Pei, aren't the iron locks you just used to test Xiaozhu also belong to the Tianxin Lock, a solid false orifice mechanism? Just now, you said it was a missing one, and Xiaozhu can also solve it. Well, why are you saying no now?"

Hu Sanmiao explained to me: "The so-called solid false orifice organ means that it looks like a wall, a stone, or a lump of iron on the outside... The surface is smooth and natural, without any gaps, but in fact there is something hidden inside. Small orifices are often used in gravestones, white marble coffins or secret boxes to prevent others from unlocking them and are specifically used to hide secrets."

"It is said that Emperor Yongzheng wrote two edicts on the selection of the successor, both of which were contained in Kowloon white jade secret boxes. One was hidden behind the grand and bright plaque of the Qianqing Palace, and the other was carried with you. You need to open both copies at the same time to know Who will be the next emperor? This Nine Dragons secret box is a solid false orifice machine lock. After the death of Emperor Yongzheng, it took nine experts in the palace who were short of one master to work together for ten days to open the secret box. Only then did they know that the throne had been passed to Emperor Qianlong. .”

"No matter how ingenious the solid false orifice mechanism is, according to the rules, as long as the top mechanism master can find the small orifice inside and open it with great effort. But for this kind of mechanism, we have a jargon called 'Eat the hard and not the soft'. In other words, if it is a solid false orifice mechanism made of hard objects, an expert can unlock it. But if it is a solid false orifice mechanism made of soft materials, it cannot be unlocked at all."

"Because hard objects are difficult to remove, the internal structure of the mechanism will not be damaged and the mechanism will become stuck when untying it. However, soft objects are not strenuous and will damage the internal mechanism of the mechanism when untying it, causing the mechanism to lock up and finally not be able to be opened at all. This amber looks like It's hard, but actually its texture is soft. Trying to unlock the mechanism will cause the mechanism to get stuck and completely unable to be opened, which goes against your requirements."

I:"……"

Pei Lu saw my confused face and explained succinctly: "To put it bluntly, opening the lock will cause the lock to break, and in the end you will have to break the door!"

This time I finally understood.

They can find a hole to unlock it, but because amber is a soft object, if they unlock it, they will break the lock and they will never be able to open it.

In the end, the only option was to smash the amber.

But smashing amber will damage the butterfly.

to me.

doesn't make any sense.

Seeing that I looked very disappointed, Xiaozhu said, "Master, uncle, let's not jump to conclusions so quickly. Let's study it carefully and maybe we can come up with other solutions."

Hu Sansui thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Su, why don't you put this thing here first, and the three of us can look at it for a few days before talking about it? But don't have too much hope."

I thought that was all I had to do.

Even if the wisdom of the three of them is combined, they can't solve it.

It is estimated that no one in the world can solve it.

This thing is tantamount to useless stuff.

I replied: "Excuse me, Mr. Hu and Mr. Pei, then I will wait a few more days."

Xiaozhu sent me out.

At the door.

Xiaozhu pulled my clothes and said happily: "Brother, I'm out of school!"

I replied: "It's just about getting started with the organization. You can learn other miscellaneous things."

Xiaozhu replied: "I don't want to learn anymore."

I asked, "What's the matter?"

Xiaozhu said: "My master's other miscellaneous skills are almost the same as yours. He is the best in JiKat. You don't know how to do this. I learned this just to help you. Now that I know it, I can help you. I don’t want to learn.”

I:"……"

Xiaozhu said: "Oh, please don't let me study anymore! My master has to ask me to practice with him in other places when he opens a new course. If I go, I won't be able to follow you for a long time."

I asked: "Does your master agree?"

Xiaozhu winked playfully: "As long as you agree, don't worry about the rest. I will take care of the master."

Twisted melons are not sweet.

I nodded in agreement.

Xiaozhu was so happy that he jumped back.

Lu Cenyin was busy with Yingqing Pavilion.

I went home and planned to take a rest.

After opening the door.

I found that my room on the second floor had been locked.

Only then did he remember that Xiaozhu arranged for Fourth Master Ni to sleep in this room.

I knocked on the door.

After half an hour.

The door opened.

A young woman who still retains her charm ran out in a panic.Fourth Master Ni was lying on the bed, blinking one eye: "Master, are you too boring?"

I pointed at the running woman's back: "You brought a woman to fool around in my room without my consent, and you said I wasn't interesting enough?"

Fourth Master Ni said: "You drank a bottle of my good wine, and you felt so good flying into the sky last night! You just knocked on the door and scared people away. It was not easy for me to catch it!"

I was very speechless and asked: "Where did it come from?"

Fourth Master Ni replied: "The proprietress of the small restaurant next door! You lived here before, don't you know her?"

I remembered that it was really her.

This is so fucking genius.

The boss lady is actually quite serious.

I used to go there often to eat rice bowls.

But this day is long.

I asked: "Why are you so awesome?"

While buttoning his clothes, Fourth Master Ni replied: "Actually, it's not that big of a deal. I can basically tell by looking at someone's appearance whether they will be in love or not. If you throw a bone at a hungry dog, do you think she will eat it?" ?”

I:"……"

Fourth Master Ni glanced at me a few times, closed one eye, and did some calculations with his fingers: "You have a rosy face and colorful feet. You are going to go on a long trip recently. Although the process is quite twists and turns, the rewards are great."

After speaking.

He put on his clothes and left.

I grabbed him and said, "Please tell me clearly, where am I going and what's the big gain?"

Fourth Master Ni broke away from my hand: "You can't tell me too clearly! If I am too clear, I will be punished by God and destroy your luck."

I asked, "Where are you going?"

Fourth Master Ni replied: "Keep looking for the boss lady! I can't do such an immoral thing."

After he left.

I lie down in bed and rest.

I actually slept until early the next morning.

Xiaozhu called me suddenly.

"Brother, we have solved the trap!"

As soon as I heard this, I jumped out of bed, grabbed my clothes and ran out the door.

I took a taxi.

Go to Suolong Lane.

When they arrived at Hu Sanmiao's house, they saw that all three of them had red bloodshot eyes. It was obvious that they had stayed up all night yesterday to study how to solve the mandarin duck and butterfly amber trap.

There is a table next to it.

The table is covered with a white cloth.

Two butterflies sleep in each other's arms on a white cloth.

Sophisticated and beautiful.

I was surprised: "How did you do it?"

Just when Hu Sanmiao and Pei Lu were about to talk, Xiaozhu immediately stopped him and said with a smile: "Let's give it a try first! Brother, look at what's on the butterfly's wings?!"

I took the high-gloss flashlight Xiaozhu handed me and looked at the butterfly's wings. I found that there were densely carved characters on them!
but.

The characters are too small and not even Chinese characters.

I don't know anyone.

Xiaozhu took out a piece of rubbing paper and handed it to me: "We have already rubbed all the words on it here!"
