Reborn Master vs. School Beauty

I gave him my address, and the man said he’d be there in five minutes.

Sure enough, before five minutes had passed, there was a knock on the door. I opened the door to see a young man of about twenty-five or twenty-six with a full head of hair and a round face. He looked to be in high spirits. I asked, "What is elder brother’s surname?"

That person smiled and said, "My surname is Liu, you can just call me Liu Miao."

I brought him to the living room. When he first saw Wang Dachuan’s lock, his eyes lit up. He looked at me and said, "Hey, are we going together? Your tool is even better than mine, why are you still looking for me? "

"No, this thing belongs to a friend of mine, so I don’t really know how to use it. Look at how you’re going to open this box, I’m counting on you, an expert."

Liu Miao looked at the box, and frowned: "I have never seen such a big box, and this pattern is quite scary, where did you get it from? This thing can even be used as a coffin. "

I don’t like the way this man talks, and it’s too casual. Liu Miao, on the other hand, carefully observed the lock on the chest and nodded, "This is indeed the lock of the Qing dynasty. Liu Mao, on the other hand, carefully examined the lock on the chest and nodded," This is really the lock of the Qing dynasty.

"Hehe, actually, I didn’t know that there was such a thing in the family. relatives gave it to me because they didn’t have a place to store it in the countryside."

Liu Miao took out a slender iron bar from his bag, with a curved hook at the front, and said, "I can’t guarantee you that. Your thing should be considered an antique, so let’s first talk about it. Don’t lie to me if it’s broken."

I nodded. "Brother Liu, don’t worry. I just wanted you to help me open the box. I didn’t have any other intentions."

Liu Miao had no choice but to pick up the piece of metal with the hook and insert it into the keyhole. With a slight shake and a click, the big lock popped open.

It was so easy. I felt relieved and thought, "I thought it was going to be difficult, but it turned out to be so easy."

Liu Miao was also a little surprised, he laughed and said: "Blind cat trying to kill a mouse, I was just lucky. I have never opened such an old lock, I just randomly tried it."

I raised my big brother, saying, "Expert, I really admire you so much."

Liu Miao smiled embarrassedly and said, "Brother, you’re too polite. I’m just fooling around. Right, take a look at the things inside, shouldn’t I take a look?"

"No need, there shouldn’t be anything inside. The box at home, what else could there be inside? I think it’s probably just some old clothes." Actually, I just wanted to find someone to accompany me and strengthen my courage. After all, the things I took from the pawnshop on the east side of the street always had a creepy feeling to them.

Seeing that I had agreed to let him watch, he was also, of course, excited. He helped me lift the lid of the box and said, "I’ve heard a lot of these kinds of things, the boxes that were passed down from my ancestors, once they are opened, either are treasures of gold and silver, or are also antique calligraphy and paintings. In short, there are a lot of people who have made a fortune.

The two of us lifted the lid and looked inside. We were stunned. There was actually a box inside the big box. The style was the same as the big box outside. The chain was about the same, but a little too small.

"Your sister, why is she like a Russian doll with a layer underneath?" I said in disappointment.

Liu Miaomiao’s interest was piqued, and he said: "It’s alright, I will continue to open the lock on the wall inside, even if you cover them one by one, it will eventually come to an end."

He took out an even thinner iron wire, made a hook, and tested the lock. As expected, it was opened again, and Liu Miao cheered, "It’s opened again, haha! Let’s see what’s inside now."

When we opened the lid, we were stunned to find that it was still a smaller box.

Liu Miao suggested, "Bro, why don’t we turn the box upside down and take out the small box inside first? This way, it’ll be more convenient to unlock it."

I don’t quite agree. "What if there’s porcelain or jade? If it was a fine object, it would have definitely shattered after being tossed around like that. "

"That’s true, I didn’t consider that." Liu Miao also frowned, so he could only take out the iron wire and continue to make his own tools, then he picked off the little lock. Actually, this process happened three more times. The box inside was already so small that it was only as big as a lunchbox, and the lock was so small that it was only the size of a pinky.

Just as we were about to open the lid, Liu Miao prayed, "Don’t let it be a box again. If it’s any smaller, I won’t be able to open it."

At this moment, Jian Wei had also floated over and said with a smile, "I’m here to join in the fun and see what exactly is inside."

The box opened. Sure enough, there was another smaller box. It could also be said to be a box. The keyhole was almost invisible, and it would be hard to insert a needle inside.

Liu Miao almost cried out, "You’re just playing with me, how can you open it?"

He took out a hammer and viciously said, "Why don’t I just knock it open and see what’s inside."

I stretched out my hand to stop him. "I’ve already said this before. If the interior is made of porcelain or jade, it would be a huge loss if it was shattered." Only then did Liu Mao stop, shaking his head and saying, "I’ve unlocked the door for so long and I’ve never seen such a strange thing before, but this time I’ve gained some insight, thank you brother."

Liu Miao had a strange expression on his face. As he said that, he was about to leave. I hastily asked, "Brother Liu, you still haven’t received your money. How much money is it?" Liu Miaomiao replied without turning his head, "I didn’t finish what I needed to do, what money should I take? I’ll go back and carefully study it. I’ll find a way to open the lock, then I’ll contact you."

I felt a little guilty. I had to trouble Liu Miao for most of the night. He didn’t even drink a sip of water, and he didn’t even take the money. This was too much for me.

Looking at the small box in my hand, I bitterly smiled. "What exactly is this thing contained? It’s so mysterious."

Jian Wei replied, "Since it’s something that everyone in the spirit realm is after, it’s not that easy to open. I think you and Liu Miao were just wasting your time."

I said unhappily, "It’s fine if you don’t help, but why are you making sarcastic remarks?" "At least now that we’re this small, if we open it up again, we’ll know what’s inside."
