Play treasure master

Chapter 444
After Yu Yao entered the password, when the progress bar was blinking, the salesman involuntarily stared at the screen.

Time seemed to pass very slowly.

Of course time did not slow down, but the mood became more urgent.

"Ah!" The salesman suddenly shouted.

"What are you calling?" Yu Yao was still staring at the screen when he spoke.

The reason why the salesman shouted was because the password was correct this time!
Yu Yao couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief.

In the end, what Yu Yao got was also an old-fashioned suitcase.However, this suitcase is much smaller than Shangguan Yu's suitcase. Its length and width are only [-] centimeters, and its thickness is at most [-] centimeters.

But it is quite heavy to start with.

After leaving the bank branch, Yu Yao and Lin Fengcao immediately returned to the hotel.

Close the door and turn on the lights, close the windows and draw the curtains, and open the suitcase.

In the suitcase, there is a sheepskin pocket, which has been squeezed into a square shape.One end of the sheepskin pocket is sewn with wax thread.

In the end, what was taken out of the sheepskin pocket was a brass box, no wonder it was so heavy!

Yu Yao carefully placed the copper box on the table.

It seems that this copper box has no cover, in other words, there is no place to open it directly!
The copper box is a flat cube, with ribs on the upper and lower sides, and a rivet-like protrusion on each of the four surrounding sides.Whether it's ribs or bulges, they all appear to fit perfectly.

The most striking thing is that the upper plane is engraved with a nine-square grid.

There is a round hole in the center of the nine grids.Looking in from the round hole, you can see smooth vertical channels, not deep; and at the bottom, there seem to be connected channels horizontally, and they are not horizontal.

There is also a groove on the side of the Jiugong grid, which is clamped with a long copper piece; one end of the long copper piece is pinned with a small short copper piece.In the groove, there are nine small balls.

The two copper pieces, one long and one short, are simple cards. When the short copper piece is pushed aside and the long copper piece is lifted, nine small balls can be easily taken out.

"Nine Palaces Box!" Lin Fengcao frowned, "What is he playing with?!"

Such a trap box cannot be forcibly sawed open or violently opened, because in addition to the traps on the surface, there are often hidden traps inside. If you are not careful, the things inside may be destroyed!

It can be seen at a glance that only when the nine small balls are correctly placed in the round hole can the copper mechanism box be opened normally, so that the contents inside can be obtained intact.

Yu Yao took a deep breath, "This is a box reserved for the successor of the big palm eye, and the matter is very important. After the identity is confirmed, you can get the box; but, why do you still want to study the ability of this successor! If the ability is not enough, take the box. When you get to the box, you can't get what's inside!"

Lin Fengcao adjusted his mood, "This person is thinking deeply!"

"That's right!" Yu Yao replied, "It's his mission to leave the box for Da Palm Eye, and he has to do it. But if Da Palm Eye is incompetent and can't open the box, then it's not his fault. In addition , also has the effect of preventing accidental outflow.”

Lin Fengcao looked at the nine small balls, all of which were of the same size and about 1.5 centimeters in diameter.

The material is different.

The size is the same, and the material cannot be the same, otherwise it will not be a mechanism.

Yu Yao identified the nine small balls, they were gold balls, wooden balls, crystal balls, porcelain balls, jade balls, beeswax balls, coral balls, turquoise balls, and agate balls.

The golden ball is pure gold, and it is also the densest inside.

The wooden ball is made of red sandalwood, purple-black in color and very oily.

The crystal ball is citrine, light yellow in color and transparent in texture.

Porcelain balls are a bit special, some with celadon glaze, some without, and the body is exposed; it looks like a part of a piece of porcelain has been polished.

The jade ball is Hetian white jade, slightly blue, with excellent density and oiliness.

The color of the beeswax ball is chicken oil yellow, the wax is firm, the patina is thick, there is no half of impurities, it is as uniform as toffee, and fine weathering patterns can be seen when you look closely.

The coral ball is Aka coral, ox blood red.It doesn't look very old, but the body of Aka coral can be said to be the smallest of all red corals. It can produce a bead with a diameter of 1.5 cm, which is already considered very rare.

The color of the turquoise ball is darker and bluer, and there is no iron wire in the whole body.

The agate ball is a pharmacist's agate, that is to say, there is a white stripe pattern surrounding the center of the bead, with obvious patina and slight bumps.

Yu Yao can identify the materials one by one, but after identifying them, he is still in the fog.

If it is arranged according to the simplest nine palaces, it is similar to the puzzle fill-in-the-blank puzzles done by primary school students - put nine numbers from 1 to 9 into nine spaces, so that any horizontal addition, vertical addition, and oblique addition will have the same result: 15 .

This has long been a formula in ancient times: two or four are shoulders, six or eight are feet, three are left and seven are right, nine shoes are worn and one is worn, and five is in the center.

But these small balls are just made of different materials. They are all round spheres. Apart from natural traces, there is no deliberate artificial hint.

This is not the same as opening a lockbox, I'm afraid there is only one chance.If it is misplaced, the ball should not be taken out and used for a second time.

"Different balls must be put into different round holes." Lin Fengcao pondered, "It's just that the engraved nine-square grid is not even marked with its position."

"That's easy to say. The small ball slot must be on the right hand. Because the long and short copper pieces are stuck at the bottom, the right hand is just the long copper piece that opens upwards." Yu Yao interjected, "Follow the rules first up and down, then left and right, so Then we can determine the direction of up, down, left and right."

"I was a little careless, you really sank in all of a sudden." Lin Fengcao glanced at Yu Yao, "Could it be possible that these nine balls can also correspond to nine numbers?"

"This is the most basic way of thinking. Besides, the old man seems to like number games very much." Yu Yao squeezed his chin, "How can we make these nine small balls correspond to nine numbers?"

Lin Fengcao thought for a while, "Is it related to weight?"

After that, he waved his hand, "This seems too simple! Because it is easy to arrange; if it is not possible, just call it."

Yu Yao looked at it for a while, but didn't have any clues for the time being, so he walked away a few steps and lit a cigarette.

After taking a few puffs, Yu Yao said, "Arranged by weight, it's really impossible."

Lin Fengcao stared at the Jiugong grid again, "What I said just now is the most basic and simplest way of thinking, which is the number arrangement of the acquired Jiugong; in this way, the placement and order of different balls can be determined together. But , if what He Yidi envisioned is not this way of thinking, then, in addition to placing different balls in different positions, you have to determine the order of throwing in addition!"
