It's almost lunch time.
Lin Yu and Shen Buyao finally reached the finish line.
In front of a big house in the mountains!
The two arrived nearly half an hour later than the navigation estimated time.
It’s not that the journey is difficult.
Lin Yu was worried about his own safety, so he drove extra carefully.
Even so.
After Akina Hiromitsu.
There were two more strange driving incidents that almost hindered the journey.
This car is so tiring to drive!
Lin Yu didn't dare to be distracted at all, and drove to the door of Shen Buyao's hometown with full concentration.
Along the way.
I also saw quite a few tourist homestays and shopping spots.
It is true that the house is in the mountains, but it cannot be said to be isolated from the world.
It's just that there are no other houses around her house, so she has the only one on the hill.
Lin Yu looked at the old house with high walls from the outside.
It seems that this big house and yard must have been renovated in recent years.
Shen Buyao took a bunch of keys and shook them at Lin Yu.
He smiled expectantly and said:
"Let's go, Lin Yu!"
"I'll take you to see where I lived when I was a kid. There are a lot of fun things there!"
"Hey, this time there's a special... treasure hunt!"
Shen Buyao was looking forward to what she called the "treasure hunt".
Little did they know.
Lin Yu’s “treasure” was already in his camera bag and backpack!
…
A Chinese restaurant near Ghost Market Street.
In a chic private room.
Several dishes that Shen Jiuyi liked, which were specially ordered for her, have been served one by one.
As for Lao Liang himself, he was holding the teapot and drinking tea, with no intention of picking up his chopsticks to eat.
Shen Jiuyi, who had not eaten breakfast, was already starving by noon.
He didn't bother to be polite and ate quickly to maintain his appearance.
at the same time.
Shen Jiuyi also did not forget to ask about what Lao Liang talked about in the car:
"Lao Liang, tell me about it."
"What obstacles have you set for them?"
Lao Liang poured the tea and spoke in the mysterious tone of a wise man:
"Miss Nine, do you know that the Shen family's old house has been in the mountains for so many years?"
"Why haven't there been any thieves who would come in and steal?"
Shen Jiuyi nodded and said:
"I've heard my mom mention this before. It's because the terrain we're on is high and the surrounding area is even more shaky."
Lao Liang nodded and analyzed:
"Miss Nine is right. There is another very important point..."
"The wall of the Shen family's old house is high!"
Shen Jiuyi paused for a moment, waiting for Lao Liang to continue.
"There are no suitable leverage points around. If you want to enter the house from the outside, there is only one way, through the door!"
"If this door is blocked, let alone breaking in to steal, we won't even know what's inside."
"In the end, we can only return empty-handed!"
Shen Jiuyi grasped the key point in Lao Liang’s words and followed his words and asked:
"So you tampered with the door lock?"
Lao Liang turned the teacup in his hand and said in a deep voice:
"Miss Nine, you must know the 'Kongming Lock', right?"
Shen Jiuyi: “!!!”
"Did you change the door lock to a Bagua lock?"
Of course Shen Jiuyi knew about this thing.
She used to play it often when she was a child.
Kongming lock, also known as Bagua lock or Luban lock.
It is a lock with mortise and tenon structure.
Nowadays, people basically play with it as an educational toy, and no one really uses it to lock the door.
Unless...
"To be precise, it should be the 'Twenty-Four Pillar Lock' among the Kongming Locks."
"If you make a mistake in taking it apart, you have to put it back together and start over again."
"And every time one is removed, it's easier to take it out than to put it back."
"I spent a long time carving this lock."
"I know Shopkeeper Yao..."
"I promised my friend that I would take him to visit the old house."
"If she can't get in, she won't give up."
Shen Jiuyi: “…”
Lao Liang really has a bad taste!
There is nothing to do but research this kind of thing.
sound.
It seemed like an obstruction, but Shen Jiuyi always felt that something was wrong.
Lao Liang was right about Yaoyao.
But he didn't know Lin Yu.
Lin Yu doesn't look like someone who can be stopped easily!
…
So at the same time.
At the entrance of the old house in the mountains.
"Go away... Eighty! Eighty! Eighty!"
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
"Bang……"
Lin Yu held the car repair wrench in his hand and knocked it only three times.
The wooden Kongming lock broke into a bunch of large wooden strips.
Lin Yu acted very cautiously.
It was all the lock structure that was smashed, pulling the wooden bars off, but the door was not damaged at all.
"Yaoyao, is your old housekeeper suffering from Alzheimer's disease?"
"What kind of nice person locks the door with a wooden lock?"
“This is too easy to smash!”
Shen Buyao put away the dialing phone, picked up a wooden stick and tried to poke it.
Although it is wood, it is very hard.
Why did it seem so easy for Lin Yu to hit him just now?
Shen Buyao complained unhappily:
"Who knows what's wrong with Lao Liang!"
"You don't use the chain lock, but tinker with some junk every day."
"You want to lock me out? Okay?"
Lin Yu didn't think that this was an obstacle aimed at him at all.
Instead, it's a subconscious feeling.
It was as if the old housekeeper was targeting Sister Gudong.
Anyway, before breaking the lock, he asked Shen Buyao what she meant.
