Chapter 222 Seduction

Although the bronze elixir furnace even fell off the ear of the furnace, when we circled to the side, we saw that the thick bronze lid on the elixir furnace was tightly covered on the body of the furnace, and the interface was rusted. Even if the steel bar was used to pry it, it may not be pried open.

Boss Wu and I looked at each other and felt a little strange.

Boss Wu touched his chin, smoked a small piece of cigarette in his mouth, then extinguished the cigarette butt and put it in his pocket.

I don't know why he put cigarette butts in his pocket instead of throwing them on the ground. Are they afraid of destroying the hygiene of the scenic spots?

But I didn't ask much, because after he finished this, he asked me, "What do you think is in this elixir? Is it Taishang Laojun's elixir?"

I smiled and felt that his joke was a little cold, but it was not easy to hurt his face. I said, "That's not necessarily. Maybe it's a monkey who is cultivating fiery eyes."

"Monkey?" Boss Wu also smiled and said nothing more.

In fact, after seeing this Dan furnace for so long, we are still three or four meters away from the Dan furnace. I don't know if it's because both of us are relatively vigilant, and neither of us proposed to get closer first.

Boss Wu took the flashlight in his hand and looked up and down at the patterns on the strange Dan furnace.

After a while, he asked me, "Do you see anything?"

I nodded and said, "I can see that the pattern seems to depict a complex plant vine."

Boss Wu shook his head and said, "No, in fact, you were right just now. Why have you changed your words now?"

"What's right?" I'm a little puzzled.

After thinking about it, I suddenly thought of something and asked tentatively, "You mean... monkey?"

Boss Wu nodded, pulled me back, retreated five or six meters before stopping, and then pointed to the bronze elixir furnace with a flashlight and asked, "See clearly now?"

I narrowed my eyes and looked carefully, and as expected, I saw some clues.

It turns out that the bronze but the twisted pattern on the road is not simply some vine plants and flowers and birds. Looking away, the surrounding rattan outlines an 8-shaped pattern, and if you add two furnace ears, isn't it just a monkey face?

The reason why I didn't see it just now is that the distance was too close. I only stared at the details of the pattern on the stove and didn't connect with the furnace ear. Second, because the pattern is originally skewed, and even if the whole picture can be observed, it is difficult to associate it with a face.

Now after Boss Wu's reminder, I can even see the half-open eyes and nose and mouth on the monkey's face.

The monkey's expression is joking, cunning and indescribable strange.

I was a little stunned and asked Boss Wu, "What is this, the hidden 3D rendering of the ancient version?"

Boss Wu shook his head and said, "If I knew, I wouldn't have to waste time here anymore. I want to know why, and I have to find a way to open the lid of the bronze stove."

I shook my head and said, "I think the lid is so rusty that it may not explode even with explosives. What's more, we don't have tools in our hands now."

Boss Wu obviously also knew our situation, but frowned and remained silent.

Remembering Boss Wu's cold humor just now, I sighed and said, "Is there any way to make the things inside pop out by themselves?"

Boss Wu opened his eyes slightly and said, "What do you mean?"

I smiled and said, "Take a peach to seduce it out."

"Good idea!" Boss Wu smiled, patted me on the shoulder, and then took the backpack off his back.

I looked at his series of movements speechlessly, but I didn't expect that he really believed what I said.

Boss Wu took out for a long time and turned his head and said to me, "But there seems to be no peach, but there is one apple."

After saying that, he took out a fist-sized green apple from his backpack and shook it in front of me.

I really want to tell him that I was just joking. Not to mention that there is no monkey in the stove. Even if there is one in it, it has already turned into ashes. How can he come out to eat apples?

Seeing that I had a man on my face, Boss Wu patted me on the shoulder and said, "It's okay. How can I know if I don't try?"

I was speechless again, watching Boss Wu put the apple on a stone one meter away from the Dan furnace, and then hurried back.

Boss Wu smiled at me and smiled naively, completely contrary to his stubble-faced image.

I said to myself whether this guy's name is naive or innocent. How could he do such a naive thing?

Boss Wu didn't care about my expression. He pulled me down and whispered, "Okay, let's wait for it to come out to get the apple."

I looked at the direction of the mouth of the cave with some anxiety, afraid that the fire that flew out would fly back, and then said to Boss Wu, "I think it's better to forget about the innocent Boss Wu. Since we can't open the bronze elixir stove, we simply ignore it and walk around and continue to move forward. Maybe there will be new discoveries."

Boss Wu was stunned for a moment, especially when he heard the words "innocence", and his expression changed significantly.

However, this strange look flashed by, and his face became a little serious. He pointed to the hole behind him and said, "Those who died still don't know how the bronze incense burner sounded. If we leave like this, I'm afraid I'm sorry for these dead. I'm afraid that ghosts will knock on the door at night."

I saw a trace of sadness and helplessness in his eyes, and I was silent at once. I remember that when I met him, he didn't feel any loss. It seems that this boss Wu is not as ruthless as I saw. He is just good at hiding himself.

Next, I was pulled by him and squatted on the ground like a fool, looking at the green apple without blinking.

The time passed minute by. Five or six minutes later, my legs finally squatted and my legs were a little numb. I yawned and wanted to sit down.

Boss Wu pulled me and whispered, "Don't move!"

When I was called by him, I immediately became restless and asked, "What's wrong?"

Boss Wu didn't say anything, but looked for something in his pocket.

In a short time, he found an antique kerosene lighter from his pocket, which should be from the 1950s and 1960s. It looked very precious.

Boss Wu looked nervous, holding the lighter with his white hand, wiped it twice, and hit it.

A swaying little flame rose in front of us, a little green.
