Chapter 461 Longevity Elixir?
He looked like he was talking attentively, and instead of opening each box to check, he stopped in front of each wooden box, got closer, and sniffed the coffin with his nose.
It's like trying to smell something inside the coffin through your nose.
Could it be that this guy has a dog nose?
Wang Ergou seemed a little excited when he saw dozens of coffins.
"Master Xiao Zhuo, this is simply a treasure trove. Open all the boxes inside and let's wait to make a fortune."
He looked very excited.
I hummed.
Wang Ergou was beside me and he opened a wooden box with his hands. He moved skillfully and neatly.
After the wooden box was opened, Wang Ergou exclaimed, "Copper coins, all of them are copper coins..."
I looked closely and saw the wooden box that Wang Ergou had opened. It was indeed full of copper coins. I bent down and took out a copper coin with the four words "Jiajing Tongbao" written on it.
I know Emperor Jiajing. This guy has been pursuing immortality his whole life.
He advocates Taoism, pursues immortality, and likes to have people write articles for the gods in heaven to read.
But is this really the tomb of Emperor Jiajing?
Probably not, the tomb of Emperor Jiajing has been discovered long ago.
This place?
It shouldn’t be the tomb of Emperor Jiajing, right?
Moreover, the copper coins made were not used by Emperor Jiajing at that time.
I was thinking about this matter in my mind, and I was a little curious.
Wang Ergou stared at these copper coins, searched for them, but quickly said: "There are indeed enough of these things, but they are not very valuable. Let's get them all out, and maybe we can exchange them for some money, but we want to exchange these few coins."
We have to spend a lot of effort to get out ten or hundreds of kilograms of copper coins, which is not cost-effective."
He let out a sigh, and soon his eyes fell on the other wooden boxes.
Compared with other things, copper coins are less cost-effective.
If a good calligraphy and painting is found here, it may be worth all the copper coins.
I responded softly and ignored Wang Ergou. I was curious about what Old Man Wu was looking for.
Now he is like a dog, sniffing here and there without knowing what he is looking for?
He sniffed through dozens of wooden boxes in less than ten minutes.
His movements seemed to be very fast and light. It can be judged that this guy still has some skills in his body, otherwise he would not be so nimble.
After he finished sniffing, he murmured: "What I'm looking for is not here, not here."
There was also a look of anxiety on his face.
And quickly left this ear room.
I stared at his back in a daze for a few seconds. I don't know when a hand touched my shoulder and said, "Master Zhuo, this guy is so talkative, he must be possessed by evil spirits."
I hummed softly and said nothing more.
A Chu also said: "Grandpa Wu is indeed a little abnormal."
"What's wrong? Is there something dirty on him?"
Achu's words immediately made me a little nervous, so I immediately asked.
"No, no, it's just his behavior that makes me feel a little strange."
Achu explained immediately.
After hearing Achu's explanation, my tense heart relaxed a little.
As long as it's not something evil, that's fine.
Wang Ergou also said: "Master Zhuo, what do you think this old guy is looking for? I think it's a little unusual."
I also thought it was unusual, but seeing that he looked anxious, he wasn't very interested in the money and treasure inside.
So the only explanation is that Old Man Wu is looking for a pill, right?
Emperor Jiajing had refined a lot of immortality elixirs, and the Taoist priests he found at that time were, needless to say, among the top Taoist masters in the country.
So the elixir they refined, needless to say, must be the best elixir.
But even if Emperor Jiajing took the elixir, he didn't actually live for many years.
So the so-called immortality elixir actually doesn't work at all.
If we think about the problem from this perspective, then maybe what Old Man Wu is looking for is not the elixir of longevity, but something else.
I have some doubts in my heart, but this old guy is not interested in money, and if he is not interested in immortality elixirs, then what exactly is he looking for like this crazy thing?
I was thinking about it, and Wang Ergou suddenly lost interest in the wooden box in front of him. Instead, he said to me: "Master Zhuo, this old man may be looking for some rare treasures. Let's go over and have a look. We can't let him put anything away."
Everything is swallowed up."
"Dog brother……"
What was I just about to say?
He had already rushed out, very quickly.
Actually, what I want to say is that before I came in, I had promised Old Man Wu that everything in this place would be given priority to him.
Whatever old man Wu wants to find is his own freedom.
Watching Wang Ergou go away.
A Chu suddenly said: "Chen Zhuo, why don't we go and have a look too."
I glanced at Brother Yong, who didn’t touch these boxes.
On the contrary, he always followed me, as if he wanted to protect my safety at all times.
"Brother Yong, what do you think?"
I asked.
Brother Yong quickly nodded and said, "Let's go and have a look."
The three of us walked outside. At this time, another door had opened, which was obviously also an ear room.
The light of a candle was flickering inside.
There was some confusion in my mind.
I was already thinking about it. I didn’t even want to give him a flashlight. I had to hold a candle. Is it convenient to find things?
Wang Ergou was already inside. Before we went in, we heard him chattering inside: "Uncle, what are you looking for? You can tell us and we can help you find it."
"As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers. It is better to rely on you than to rely on all of us. As long as we all work together, we will definitely find what you want."
He babbled to himself, but Old Man Wu ignored Wang Ergou at all.
And when he arrived at the funeral room, he was still the same as before, holding a candle in one hand and sniffing the coffin with his head down.
The whole behavior is very strange.
Seeing his behavior, I felt a little helpless.
But what this old man does has nothing to do with us.
Wang Ergou saw that Old Man Wu was unwilling to say what he wanted to do.
So he hurried to my side and said to me: "Master Xiao Zhuo, this old guy doesn't want to say what he is looking for?"
I saw Wang Ergou looking anxious and impatient, so I said: "Don't worry about what he does, just do your own thing well. Brother Gou, you are here to make a fortune, not to care about what he is looking for."
"
Wang Ergou listened to my words, but he still did not relax. Instead, he said to me: "Master Xiao Zhuo, I'm worried that our wealth will be taken away by others."
As he spoke, his eyes were still looking at the nagging old man Wu.
