Episode 13: I have a knot in the wood, and you can't understand it 5

"Oh?" Wei Tanyi raised his eyebrows and pointed to the fragments on the ground. "Even if Lord Han is unwilling, it won't help. It's even more unnecessary to taste it."

"Do you want to irritate me? It's not that simple," Han Ruqi was not fooled and sneered. "This little brother's package seems to contain something with edges and horns, but I don't know what it is?" He stretched out his hand and was about to grab it. Suddenly, his wrist was frozen and his throat was stagnant, and he was restrained by the two people separately.

Yuan Shu held the dragon mother dagger and put it on his wrist. As long as he dared to move, he would immediately cut off the whole wrist. And Wei Tanyi was more ruthless than him, without a trace of wind, and his five fingers clasped his throat.

The atmosphere in the room was frozen in an instant. Han Ruxu put his only hand on the handle of the knife, tightening his body like a full bow, looking for a chance to get out.

"Yuanshu, it's time for you to go." Suddenly, there was a call from the yard.

After exchanging eyes with Wei Tanyi, Yuan Shu took back the dagger and strode out with the package on his back. Hearing that Si Si sent him out of the door with a smile, Han Ruqi withdrew his consciousness and glanced at the person who still held his throat: "He's gone. Aren't you going to move your hand?"

"In case I let go and was killed by Lord Han by mistake for a while, wouldn't it be too bad?" Wei Tanyi's gesture remained unchanged and laughed back.

"... It was not until just now that I remembered that he was the murderer who was brought back to the store by you last time. He stole the Yu Guanyin of the Yanwang Mansion, and this time he actually stole it to the Taifu Temple." Knowing that the negotiations were ineffective, Han Ruxu had to change his strategy.

Wei Tanyi let out a "h" sound. For such a short moment when his hand was loosened, his arm was cut back and pressed on the table.

He turned defeat into victory. Han Ruxu was quite proud: "After all, he is not a martial arts person." But when he heard Wei Tanyi laughing, he seemed to be unable to stop. He didn't know at all. He was upset and asked angrily, "What are you laughing at!"

"Of course it's you, Lord Han," Wei Tanyi shook his head and smiled on his shoulder**. "Yuan Shu was indeed saved by me, but he is not the person you hate. I said, Lord Han, no matter how romantic Wei is, he won't touch such a small child. What do you think?

Han Ruqi gritted his teeth and put his hands hard: "Don't talk nonsense! What's the matter with the box? Don't you want to be honest?

"Okay, that's it. It's really careless," Wei Tanyi threw aside his long hair covering half of his face and didn't care about this uncomfortable posture. "There is a hairpin exchanged from the Hazan merchant in my store."

The moment the young general stepped into the palace, he knew that he was doomed. There were enough guards hidden behind the mantle to chop him into meat mud.

"Your Majesty." Nevertheless, he still had to go forward to salute the king.

The nasal voice of King Hazan signaled him to avoid etiquette, with deep arrogance and contempt - which was unprecedented in the past. As a valuable general of Hazan, he has always received courtesy from King Hazan, but he didn't know what happened, which could turn the king.

"I heard that when my Hazan army fought against Xia Ya, General Duowang got a wooden box, which was regarded as a treasure. Can you show me?" King Hazan looked gloomy and his tone was not good.

The young man knelt down and said, "Your Majesty misunderstood..." "What misunderstanding! As the main general, you actually let Xia Ya's prince go and carry his things with you. Is this also my misunderstanding?" King Hazan changed his face.

"Your Majesty is angry. I have never thought of letting Prince Xia Ya go, but when I rushed to the fog city, he had disappeared. I am incompetent. Please forgive me."

King Hazan sneered: "Do you want me to forgive your sins? OK, hand over the box, and I will spare you not to die."

The young man was stunned and looked up at the king in surprise. No? Don't blame me for being ruthless." With a wave of his hand, the simple ambush guards rushed up, pressed him to the ground, and took away the wooden box in his arms.

"Give it back to me!" Regardless of the countless weapons behind him, the young man was angry.

"Return it to you?" King Hazan smiled contemptuously, "General Duowang, has someone told you that I especially like to grab people's love?"

The young man roared and jumped up, pulled out the hairpin and rushed to the high king of Hazan.

Unfortunately, it was not close to the steps, and my body was penetrated by countless knives and guns, and I couldn't close my eyes.

"Open it?"

The man in black looked at the box on the table and looked at it for a few times. Suddenly, his thumb rubbed the blood stains between the wood grain and smiled, "It's strange. Can't the sandalwood not open the box?"

"I don't know that the young master only said that he brought the box back to the palace owner, as for whether he had opened it or not..." The blue-shirted teenager knelt under the stairs.

"Well. Get up first," the man in black didn't seem to see the puzzle, but waved his hand to wake him up first. "Have you tried to open it?"

The teenager got up and shook his head: "Disciples dare not."

Laughing: "Why don't you dare this? Come on, you open it."

After taking over the box handed over by the servant, the teenager looked at it repeatedly, knocking on the east and west, but how could he find a way to open it? Although those wooden strips can be moved vertically, none of them can be taken out. Looking at him sweating profusely, the man in black couldn't help laughing.

"Yuan Shu, this box seems to be complicated, but it can't be simpler," the man in black waved to him with a smile and took the box by himself. "It is made up of countless wooden strips, but it's just a lock. As long as you find the key and pull it out, the box will naturally open."

The teenager looked at the box doubtfully and shook his head incomprehedly: "Where is the key?"

"Isn't it right here?"

The man in black held the box with both hands and used his fingers to move the wooden strips on the front and back of the box symmetrically with his own body as the axis.

Two, four, six, eight, ten... With the astringent movement of the wooden strips, the part pressed below is exposed, which is different from the wear and tear outside, and is still brand-new. It seems that this box has been opened for the first time since it was made.

The teenager nervously watched the wooden strips change little by little in his hand, and the two sides of the wooden box seemed to gradually present a pattern of short wooden strips.

"It's done." The man in black held one side of the box to him.

There was a strange symbol on the box. The teenager couldn't help screaming at first sight: "This is not..." He pulled out the dragon mother dagger, and the blade was engraved with the same pattern near the handle. This is the emblem of the Yuan family. Why is it on this wooden box?

"Your ancestor may have something to do with the demise of Xia Ya. Maybe you are a descendant of Xia Ya's royal family," the man in black said, as if he thought of something, with a faint smile on his lips. "This sign is 'nine'. Do you think the central position is sunken?"

"Yes..." The teenager couldn't help stretching out his hand and poked his finger into the concave part, only to find that the piece of wood actually ran through the whole box. It seemed that it must be the key!

The wooden strip as the key fell on the desk, covered with black stains. Before the teenager could think about what it was, he saw the box slowly open in the man's hand.

"Ah!" Even after killing a lot of people, he couldn't help screaming.

What was in the box was like the heart of a stinged person with a dark color.
