C359 The Secret of the Box
1"Father-in-law, you really look down on me …" "
Ning Lo shook his head with a bitter smile.
When his father-in-law Lin Shanhee died, his meridians were still damaged and he was unable to cultivate.
At that time, his father-in-law had already planned for him to enter the Heaven Stage and he had to admit that his expectations of him was extremely high.
"What are you muttering about?"
Lin Qianxue, who walked out of the bathroom beside him, asked when she saw Ning Lo.
"Oh, nothing. You won't play mahjong with them? "
"You're still talking about it. I lost a few thousand yuan just because I played a few rounds. Auntie, Second Mother and Second Aunt are all casino experts, how could I be a match for them?"
Lin Qianxue rolled her eyes at Ning Lo and pouted. She looked unhappy.
"It's only a few thousand yuan. It's not like your husband can't afford it …"
"I know you can afford it, but I don't like the feeling of losing. The mahjong table is not my specialty, I'll play cards with them later."
"Oh yeah, didn't you talk about something with grandpa? You're done talking? "
"En!"
"What did they say?"
"What? Are you checking your account?"
Ning Lo smiled playfully.
"Humph!" It's fine if you don't want to say it, but it's not like I have to know. "
Lin Qianxue pretended to be angry as she twisted her waist.
"Actually, it's nothing. It's just that Father-in-law previously left some things with grandpa. This time, he passed them to me."
"Something?" "This is the iron box?"
"En!"
"What is it?"
"I don't know."
Ning Lo shook his head.
"Grandpa didn't say?"
Doubt appeared in Lin Qianxue's eyes.
"He doesn't know what's inside. The box is sealed."
"Why don't you open it and take a look?"
"It would be great if I could open it. Not only does this box have fingerprints and password, I also need to reach a certain cultivation level to open it. Your husband doesn't have this ability anymore."
Ning Lo smiled bitterly.
"Fingerprints and password, and also a certain level of cultivation?"
Lin Qianxue became more and more confused as she listened. She walked up to the box and took it.
"It's so heavy. It looks like a lockbox. "Such precision."
"That's weird, that's weird. I've never seen Dad with such a password when he was still alive."
"I'm also a bit curious, but according to grandfather, this was indeed something father left for me."
"Forget it, let's not think about it anymore. Once I step into the Natal Opening Realm and open it, I'll know with a glance. "Let's go, I'll play mahjong with you and let you regain the feeling of winning."
With that, Ning Lo pulled Lin Qianxue's hand and the two of them walked into the entertainment hall.
11 PM
After Ning Lo sent off the entire Lin Family family, he bid farewell to Lin Qianxueqiao and drove to Wai Canghai's antique shop in the middle region of the river.
The car have just arrive at the door
Wai Canghai came out to welcome him.
"Little Young Master, why did you come over so late? If you have anything to say, just let me know. I'll rush over."
"We can't talk about this in front of Qianxue and his mother-in-law. Let's go in and talk."
Ning Lo was a bit serious. He took the red-cloth box from the passenger seat and went upstairs first.
Since he didn't know what Little Young Master was going to do, Wai Canghai could only follow him.
Upstairs, in Wai Canghai's office
When Ning Lo took out the alloy steel box from the bag, Wai Canghai's eyes instantly lit up as he looked at Ning Lo in shock.
"Little Young Master, where did you get this?"
"Hehe, looks like I did not find the wrong person. This is something my father-in-law left for me."
"Mr. Lin?"
"Yes sir!"
Ning Lo nodded.
"That's not right, this old servant has everything that we need to know about Mister Lin. With the amount of money we have before Lin Family, it's impossible for us to afford a password of this level, and normal people wouldn't be able to use it either, right?"
Wai Canghai frowned and asked in confusion.
"This thing is very expensive?"
"Little Young Master, this item cannot be said to be very expensive. It is extremely expensive. Can you guess what the unit price for this item is?"
"How much? Dozens of millions."
"This number."
Wai Canghai extended his palm towards Ning Lo.
"500 million?!"
Ning Lo exclaimed.
Even though he was experienced and knowledgeable, he had no concept of money.
But this broken metal box in front of him was actually worth five hundred million?
"500 million is not little, and there's no market for it. This sort of item had always been the only option for the world's highest class of people to transport the most precious items. The alloy steel melting point outside is at a few thousand degrees celsius. It is extremely hard and cannot be destroyed by external forces, not even in Cultivator. "
"Moreover, there is a set of precise secrecy measures inside. Once affected by external forces, the entire box will be completely locked, and it's almost impossible to remove the item through brute force."
"The most important point is that this item has a very special activation method. It can be customized according to the user."
"Even true qi is fine?"
"That's right!"
Wai Canghai nodded heavily.
"Little Young Master, this thing can no longer be said to belong to Secular World. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it is a Cultivation Realm item. How could Mr. Lin have such a thing? "
"I'm also very curious, but this was indeed left behind by my father-in-law."
Ning Lo chuckled.
"It seems like my father-in-law isn't as simple as he looks on the surface."
"Could it be that someone else asked him to pass it on to you, Little Young Master?"
"It's possible, but what do you think?"
"This... It's hard to say. Little Young Master means for this old servant to dig deeper on Mr. Lin's situation? "
"That's right!"
Ning Lo nodded heavily.
"Father-in-law and Qianxue don't seem to know about Father-in-law's situation, which means that there are some things that perhaps only Father-in-law knows about. "Help me investigate in private. If it's really as you said, then it's best that the others in this metal box do it on behalf of the others."
"If that's not the case, then we need to find out what Father-in-law did in the past."
"I came to Jiang City, and he brought me to Lin Family to marry Qianxue. All of these things that I thought were coincidences were probably intentional."
"I want to know what's behind this."
"Little Young Master, don't worry. I will take care of this matter."
"Hm!" Remember to investigate in private and not disturb anyone within the Lin Family, especially my mother-in-law and Qianxue. "
"Yes sir!"
Wai Canghai nodded again.
"Oh yeah, I have something to report to you, Little Young Master."
"Go ahead."
"It's about the matter of Hei Zi's death that you had this old servant track down a while ago."
With a single sentence, Ning Lo's expression instantly turned solemn as a chill shot out from his body.
"You have beautiful eyes now?"
"Yes."
"Go on."
"That day, Little Young Master, I sent people to track down the Susu Mountain that was assassinated by Ning Fusu on the riverbank. This person was severely injured by someone not long ago at Southcloud and fell unconscious. "He's been saved by my men, so he's temporarily hidden away."
"Who was it that seriously injured him?"
"I'm not sure, but our people said that it was a western face with a katana in its hand. "They compared the knife wounds on this Sushan's body with that of Brother Hei Zi, who Little Young Master told me to investigate, almost matching the knife wounds on his body when he died."
"Western face? "It's not the face of Nan Yang?"
"It's a western face. I don't want to exclude a human skin mask."
Wai Canghai said again.
