Free Days in Siheyuan

Chapter 1061 Things in the Box
Zhang Yu stretched out his hand to support the old man who wanted to bow, and said: "It doesn't have to be like this."

At the same time, he looked up at the two stall owners who had been looking this way, as if they were spying on something, and signaled the old man to leave quickly.

The old man's eyes were full of gratitude, but she seemed to have noticed something. She looked up following Zhang Yu's gaze and met the eyes of the two stall owners.

The old man had sharp eyes, and his years of experience allowed him to see the greed and calculation in the eyes of the two stall owners at a glance.

He quickly put away the money in his hand, and after reaching the line again, he hurriedly left the pigeon market.

Waiting for the old man to walk out of the pigeon market completely, and looking at the disappointment on the faces of the two stall owners with ulterior motives, Zhang Yu walked out.

What he didn't expect was that when he reached the outermost edge of the pigeon market, he would encounter a surprise.

The man who sold salted duck eggs some time ago is actually here again.

His eyes lit up. Everyone in his family loved to eat this kind of salted duck eggs, especially his uncle, who wanted to eat them as a dish.

It's just a pity that since he rounded up the salted duck eggs in the other party's hands twice, even though he said he could contact him if he had any more salted duck eggs, he still hasn't received any news from the other party.

The salted duck eggs he pickled himself didn't taste that good.

Now we have met again, and it seems there are quite a lot of them. Sure enough, if you do good deeds, you will be rewarded.

Zhang Yu was so surprised that he quickly squeezed in front of him and wrapped all the salted duck eggs into round balls before anyone around him asked the price.

Seeing that all the salted duck eggs he brought were rounded, the other party was also very happy. After thinking about it, he directly informed Zhang Yu of his address this time, so that if Zhang Yu wanted to buy salted duck eggs in the future, he could just go to her house to find him. .

Zhang Yu returned home with a lot of gains, and his anxiety because the admission notice had not come for a long time had also dissipated a lot.

After arriving home, I first put away my things, then went to feed the Overlord with water, stroked the Overlord a few times, and then resurrected with full health.

Putting his eyes on the box he bought, he shook the box and felt that there was indeed something inside.

After tinkering for a few times, he didn't open it, and he wasn't disappointed. Instead, he put the box aside casually, planning to explore it slowly when he became interested.

The box was left there for four or five days, until Zhao Xiaoping came over and asked him if he had a suitable box and wanted to put some odds and ends in it.

Zhang Yu looked at the size of her gestures, and then remembered the box he bought from the old man that day.

I feel that the size should be quite appropriate, and the appearance is quite exquisite. The material is also good. I think it will become a family heirloom in a few years.

It's fine to keep it here for him to keep, but it's also good to give it to the eldest sister to keep some odds and ends.

Then he took it out from the corner.

Zhang Yu took out the box and wanted to open it first to see what was inside.

But I looked around the whole box and couldn't find any place to open it.

In the end, he didn't give up and carefully touched the entire box with his hands. Only then did he feel something different in one place. There was a gap in that place.

Zhang Yu was a little surprised. Although the gap was not big to the touch, it was not so big that it could not be seen with the eyes.

Looking at the box in front of him, Zhang Yu suddenly became interested. He wanted to see what was in this box that was so well hidden.
Zhang Yu studied it carefully for a long time, and then he saw a clue.

It turned out to be a problem with the paint. Sure enough, the experts are among the people, and the wisdom of the ancients cannot be underestimated.

Although the person who made this box has not learned any knowledge about space from later generations, he has been very skilled in using special paint and some designs to make a large gap disappear in front of the human eye. Zhang Yu groped for the gap with his hands for a long time, but could not find a way to open the box.

He originally planned to just stick out the tip of the knife and try to pry it.

But as soon as he put the tip of the knife in, he realized something was wrong and couldn't pry hard.

Based on his years of experience in picking up leaks, such a mechanism must not be opened with brute force.

After all, who knows if the mechanism here has a self-destruct program.

Don't think that only certain things that need to be kept secret in later generations will have self-destruct programs. The ancients' technology was not bad either.

These institutions were often carefully designed by the ancients to ensure that their finances would not fall into the hands of unfilial descendants or outsiders.

Zhang Yu once saw with his own eyes a mechanism with a self-destruct function. It was the kind of mechanism used in the small courtyard where his grandfather hid his mother's dowry. As long as two steps were wrong, the self-destruct function would be activated immediately.

I would rather destroy myself than let my enemies get involved.

Who knows if there is such a mechanism in this place?
Looking at this mechanism, Zhang Yu became more interested. Things that could be protected by such a sophisticated mechanism must have some background. Maybe he really made a profit this time.

The family was quickly attracted by the interesting box Zhang Yu mentioned.

After touching the invisible gap one by one, the family also became interested.

Everyone gathered around the box, wondering how to open it.

Everyone is talking to each other, one is thinking of this way, another is thinking of that way, and they want to try it out.

Zhang Yu, on the other hand, became quiet and looked at the pattern on the box up and down. He suddenly felt that it looked familiar.

Zhang Yu touched his chin and pondered for a long time, and suddenly thought of something.

He turned around and took out a piece of paper from the drawer. There were some winding patterns on it. He couldn't understand it at first, but now he compared it with the patterns on the box and found that they were the same.

No, it's not exactly the same, there is still a slight difference.

Zhang Yu compared it for a while and then realized something was wrong.

The pattern on the box is indeed very similar to the pattern on the drawing paper, but the pattern in the circle near the center is opposite.

Suddenly, Zhang Yu's eyes lit up, and he thought he knew how to open the box.

Under the watchful eyes of the family, Zhang Yu reached out and pressed hard somewhere on the box, and then pressed it again on the opposite corner...

Within a few seconds, I heard a noise coming from inside the box.

Everyone looked at Zhang Yu, then at the box, and finally at the piece of paper in his hand, their eyes full of suspicion.

Zhang Yu knew what they were wondering about. He raised the piece of paper in his hand, which was no bigger than a palm, and explained: "The money that jumped out of the radio together with it was blown by the fan and floated into the crack of the table. did not see.

I just found it two days ago when I was looking for something. "

Speaking of this, Zhang Yu was a little curious. Today, the old man said that this thing was left to him by his son, and that the radio was left to his son by another old man. It can be said that they are two people who cannot be compared with each other. Why? The other party will have a way to open the box.
