The Golden Hairpin

Chapter 250: Concentric wire knot (4)

"So..." She looked at the box in her hands groaningly, with eighty characters in disorder, eighty thin copper rods that were nailed at will, matched with a lock cylinder that was impossible to be the same inside. This should be a secret box that can never be cracked by anyone in the world. However, what is hidden in it is always changing again and again. Where is it and can anyone get into it?

She tapped her finger on the secret box and heard a dull voice. Master Sun immediately said: "This is actually a copper box with wooden boards on the outside. This thing, this workmanship, is really worthy of ten thousand dollars!"

Huang Zixian nodded, no wonder he felt so heavy in his hands.

Her gaze swept across the table where Master Sun was doing work again. The tools piled up in a mess, and the scattered wood chips on the table were covered with a layer of sawdust. The tarp that had just wrapped the box was discarded on it, and there were many remaining pieces of characters scattered around.

Nothing was found. Huang Zixia felt that the box was heavy, so she handed it to Zhou Ziqin, and he obediently hugged it.

Of course Li Shubai didn't have that much money with him, but he took a silver ingot. Although Master Sun wanted to change it, he calculated that there was more money. He immediately smiled and thanked them again and again.

Zhou Ziqin sighed while holding the Jiugong Box, "Such a sloppy and sloppy uncle, the things are so exquisite, this box is really good."

"Give it to you." Li Shubai said casually.

"...Is it possible to change the character code? These eighty characters are irrelevant, how can I remember?" Zhou Ziqin asked with a bitter face, "And it seems that the box can't change the character code?"

"Of course not. Once the lock cylinder is fixed, it can never be changed."

"So there is only this one in this world, the code cannot be changed, it will always be unique?"

"Yes." Li Shubai said lightly, turning his gaze to Huang Zixia.

Huang Zixian was also looking at him, the two eyes facing each other, she couldn't help but flushed, and quickly turned her face away.

Li Shubai only felt that his heart was rippling slightly, as if a lake was constantly fluctuating there. He slowed down, and the two fell behind Zhou Ziqin and moved a little apart.

Neither of them spoke, but each looked at the tree by the roadside. At the beginning of the snow, rustling snow fell from the branches, the blue sky reflected the dead branches and white snow, and the fragrance of winter plum was clear.

They walked side by side, and occasionally her left hand and his right hand touched lightly while walking, and across the beautiful clothes pattern, it seemed that they could touch the warmth of each other's skin.

He finally couldn't help it, and called her softly: "Zixia..."

She heard him calling herself, but her face was buried deeper, and the blush on her cheeks was as beautiful as a rose.

Li Shubai looked at her drooping crimson face, only to feel the blood in her whole body flowing hot. Unable to help himself, he stretched out his hand to hold her wrist tightly in his palm.

Huang Zixia's heart jumped suddenly, trying to withdraw her hand. But his warm palm pressed against her cool wrist, and the two red beans hanging from the gold thread lightly hit the beating blood of her wrist in an instant, making her whole body's strength disappear. Drop your hand and let him hold yourself.

But it was only a moment, because Zhou Ziqin soon realized that they were behind. He turned to look at them and asked, "Why are you walking so slowly?"

She shook off Li Shubai's hand in embarrassment, and the sleeves of the two suddenly separated, as if they had just touched the wide sleeves.

Huang Zixian wrung his hands and asked in a low voice, "Do you want to talk to Ziqin about your charm?"

Li Shubai looked at Zhou Ziqin's figure jumping like a teenager, and silently shook his head and said, "Forget it, one more person knows, what's the point of dragging another person into the water."

She nodded and asked: "This Jiugong Box, at present, seems to have no way to start, not to mention that there is a lotus box inside this box. To open these two boxes, you can manipulate the charms inside. It's all difficult."

Li Shubai nodded and said in a low voice, "You also confirmed last time that it will take a long time to remove the traces of cinnabar from the blood sample. And I sometimes deliberately take the spell out several times a day to check, how dare the other party use it? What about the technique that can only work in two or three days? Besides, the two times my mother and concubine passed away and my left arm was injured and almost disabled, the time spent before and after it was definitely not more than ten hours, and the spell changed. The red circle on the words gradually faded as my injury changed and finally disappeared. I thought that the other party wouldn't be so bold as to get out of it with my spells, right? "

Huang Zixia sighed lightly, exhaled a faint white breath, surrounded her face, showing a trace of melancholy: "It seems that there may be a long way to go before the case is over."

Seeing her frowning eyebrows, Li Shubai couldn't help but raise his hand to touch her eyebrows, persuading her: "Nothing, anyway, I believe we can finally see the sun."

Seeing that his expression was firm, Huang Zixian had no doubts and fear in his eyes, and felt that the vacant heart had also fallen back to the real place. She stared at him, curled her lips and took a step back slowly, and said, "Today is a reward. I will take care of it when I go back... If the prince thinks of anything, please tell me."

Li Shubai frowned slightly and asked, "Are you still going back there?"

"Yes, I can't give up all my previous efforts. After all, the Wang family has promised me to investigate this matter. What a rare opportunity." She said, taking a step back, but her eyes were still fixed on him, "Yes. If you find out... you can ask someone to send me a letter. Wang's servants are all deaf and mute, you have to write Huang Zixia's words on the envelope."

Li Shubai nodded and said nothing.

She took a step back, and finally looked away from her, and waved at Zhou Ziqin: "I'm leaving."

Zhou Ziqin waved goodbye to her reluctantly, and then murmured: "Really, no matter how well she gets along with us, she still has to go back to Wang's house in the end-no way, who calls Wang Yun his fiance. "

Li Shubai pursed his lips without saying a word, and walked past him quickly.

"Hey, why did you suddenly ignore people?" Zhou Ziqin hurried to catch up with the box, "Master, wait for me..."
