Chapter 556
After Zhang Lin finished speaking, he leaned on the sofa, staring at the Dragon-Patterned Stone Box with a troubled expression, as if the appearance of this thing had brought him a lot of trouble.
Yin Nanfeng was originally very irritable, thinking that Zhang Lin came over, at least there would be some breakthrough tension regarding this mysterious box.
She didn't expect that there would still be nothing!
But looking at Zhang Lin's melancholy appearance, Yin Nanfeng instantly felt much more comfortable in her heart.
Zhang Lin's posture had actually always been very high.
Don't look at Zhang Lin telling stories in the Crescent Hotel now, with Yin Nanfeng as his nominal boss.
But this person Zhang Lin was very free and unrestrained in his bones.
There was a temperament in him that transcended the crowd, which was revealed naturally.
This state, Yin Nanfeng had only seen in a few people in high positions!
If she had to describe it, it was a sense of weariness unconsciously emitted after being able to control everything, with money, fame, and status seemingly within reach.
This sense of weariness made people feel that Zhang Lin was very distant!
As if there was naturally a barrier between him and the crowd!
It was this barrier that had an invisible deterrent to people like Yin Nanfeng.
She couldn't see through Zhang Lin's trump cards, nor did she understand where this temperament in Zhang Lin came from, so naturally, she didn't dare to make any excessive moves.
But Zhang Lin was clearly just a storyteller!
Now seeing the omniscient storyteller troubled by a Dragon-Patterned Stone Box, Yin Nanfeng found it somewhat funny.
"Since you can't see it now, then take it back and study it carefully."
"This box should be the safest thing in the world right now."
"No one knows the pattern of the password, so they don't know the time it will open."
"Just in case, I think it's better for you to keep it with you at all times!"
Zhang Lin nodded, "Boss Yin is still thoughtful; if a dragon egg was put inside and it accidentally hatched while I wasn't around, that would be a huge loss!"
Yin Nanfeng sneered upon hearing this.
"A dragon egg?! You really dare to think!"
"Mr. Zhang, read fewer fantasy novels and study your business more, so you don't run out of stories to tell in a few days!"
After Yin Nanfeng finished speaking, she didn't give Zhang Lin a chance to refute and pushed the door open and walked out.
After Zhang Lin watched her leave, he picked up the Dragon-Patterned Stone Box again and shook it by his ear.
"This thing... it feels like it's not small!"
"Could it really be as I said, a dragon egg?"
Sheng Sheng Man hadn't left yet, and upon hearing this, she covered her mouth and laughed lightly.
"Mr. Zhang, you are really humorous; are there dragons in the world?"
Zhang Lin stood up with the box and said casually: "If you say there aren't any just because you haven't seen them, then there are too many things that don't exist."
"Living in this world, you still need to have more expectations to be interesting, don't you think?"
Sheng Sheng Man looked at Zhang Lin, knowing that these words were meant for her.
Sheng Sheng Man had always felt that life had no sense of expectation, doing the same things in the Crescent Hotel every day, and she could see the future at a glance.
But Zhang Lin's appearance had changed her life a lot.
"You are right, Mr. Zhang; I've heard you tell so many stories about the Laojiu Sect tomb raiding; have you ever thought about going down to the ground yourself once?"
Going down to raid a tomb yourself?
This question really stumped Zhang Lin; to be honest, he really hadn't thought about it.
After all, tomb raiding isn't as comfortable as storytelling!
Either going into the ground or going into the sea, rolling around in mud, getting soaked all over—just thinking about it is suffering.
Zhang Lin, who was originally prepared to say directly that he wasn't interested, suddenly saw the expectant look in Sheng Sheng Man's eyes.
He immediately understood what this girl meant.
He laughed and said: "If I have the opportunity to lead a tomb-raiding team, I will definitely borrow the 'Wind-Following Ear' from Boss Yin!"
Sheng Sheng Man heard this, and a smile instantly bloomed on her face.
Clearly, this big pie drawn by Zhang Lin made her very happy!
……
After returning to his residence with the huge Dragon-Patterned Stone Box, it was already late at night.
Only then did Zhang Lin quiet down and carefully study this stone box.
Actually, when facing Yin Nanfeng, Zhang Lin had already seen the problem with this box.
First of all, this is a real Dragon-Patterned Stone Box, with no problems at all.
The operating principle, and even the era it belongs to, are from the period of King Zhou Mu!
But whether it is the one made by King Mu, Zhang Lin isn't quite sure.
After all, he doesn't know what characteristics the one collected by the Wang family has, and he hasn't seen it either.
But just the fact that it is an original genuine product is shocking enough!
This is like buying a luxury bag—something limited to one in the world suddenly has a second one appear.
If the second one isn't fake, then it can only be that the craftsman who made the first one secretly made another one!
Putting it on King Zhou Mu makes it much more interesting.
Zhang Lin finds it hard to imagine that King Mu would make two identical finished Dragon-Patterned Stone Boxes.
Because modern people can't understand or play with this thing, and for King Zhou Mu who made it, it actually wasn't easy either.
The energy consumed to make one is huge; in order to precisely determine the time the stone box opens, and the mutual influence between the holy infant's body changes inside and the stone box, King Mu should have done a lot of trial and error.
Therefore, the probability of two finished boxes appearing is not high.
So, after excluding all possibilities, the remaining answer, no matter how incredible, is the correct answer.
Zhang Lin has one in his heart!
It's just that this answer is too shocking; he can't tell anyone until he is sure.
If Yang Lusi were here, he could discuss it with this junior sister.
Unfortunately, after Yang Lusi took the team into the Taklamakan, there was no news at all.
She didn't even send Zhang Lin a message, which made him somewhat worried!
By Zhang Lin's hand is a piece of paper, on which the changes in the password on the stone box are recorded.
These were all recorded by Sheng Sheng Man while he was telling stories.
It's just that she doesn't understand the Zhou Yi Qi Men Dun Jia, so naturally, she couldn't translate the corresponding symbols into numbers; she could only copy them according to the appearance of the scale.
A total of three sets of patterns were copied on the paper, which are three numbers!
This shows that the changes in the things inside the stone box are very fast; in just one or two hours, the password numbers have already jumped three times.
This is impossible to appear on the box where King Zhou Mu placed the holy infant.
The changes in the holy infant's body are calculated in hundreds of years, so the patterns corresponding to the box also change once every hundred years!
Compared to that box, the one in Zhang Lin's hand is like it has been set to double speed!
