What Lister's men brought were two relatively large aviation aluminum boxes.
After putting the box away, the other party handed the key to Zhu Yu and motioned for him to open it himself.
Qin Fei wanted to come over to pick up the key - he was afraid there was something wrong with it.
But Zhu Yu waved his hand, took the key himself, and opened the huge box.
The Eye of Heaven is always open, so he knows exactly what is inside.
The box was opened, and inside were neatly arranged antique boxes wrapped in soft materials.
Taking out a box, Zhu Yu opened it and looked at it. It was a palm-sized jade pendant with a dragon and a phoenix in it.
The jade pendant is made of fine mutton-fat jade. It feels warm and comfortable, and the carving is exquisite. It is a rare fine product.
Putting the jade pendant into the box, closing it, Zhu Yu opened another long and narrow box.
Stored here is a precious sword used by the emperor.
The sword is very luxuriously and beautifully decorated. The handle is polished and inlaid with turquoise, lapis lazuli, etc. The scabbard is also inlaid with several gems of equal size, and is also inlaid with gold wire to create patterns.
Zhu Yu took out the sword and found that there was almost no rust and it was very well preserved.
If you take out any of these things, you can check the inheritance, and if you put them up for auction, they can fetch hundreds of thousands, millions or even tens of millions.
After all, even if the imperial sword did not belong to a famous emperor like Kangxi and Qianlong, it at least belonged to the royal family!
However, it was obvious that Zhu Yu was not very interested in these things. After looking at them briefly, he put them away and then turned his attention to another box.
When I opened the box, a special smell came out.
Zhu Yu knew that this was the special smell of rusted bronzeware.
He was still very familiar with this smell, after all, he had harvested a large cart of bronzes.
Open the package carefully - to be honest, compared to that box, the storage method of the things in this box is very rough.
It’s normal to think about it.
After all, only China has the most in-depth research on bronzes in the world.
It seems that for bronzes, the world is divided into two sides, one is China and the other is other countries.
All the bronzes unearthed from other countries seem to weigh less than a few hundred kilograms in total, but there are more than these unearthed from a certain pit in China.
Like the bronze sword recently unearthed in Germany, it is headless, tailless and uncorroded. It is said that it was more than 3,000 years ago. It is really rare——
Orthodox experts who study bronze ware have to look at it and marvel. Is this thing called a bronze ware? Or three thousand years ago?
There is no systematic unearthed bronze ware abroad that can be excavated, and naturally there is no development context for bronze ware. What is currently being shown to the world is just one thing and another.
Some of the ones excavated from muddy puddles are relatively complete, and some that are in excellent condition are also excavated from wet soil.
This confuses Chinese experts who study bronzes, and even many physics and chemistry experts.
Of course, just mind our own affairs. Let others brag about other people's affairs... No, let others speak for themselves.
Before your strength is in place, no matter how good, true, or systematic you say, if others cover their ears, they will not listen to you.
Turning back, because of this, Zhu Yu knew very well that the experts outside China were really far behind the Chinese experts in the protection and restoration of bronzes.
Of course, this may also be related to the fact that foreign bronzes are found to be in perfect condition and do not need to be repaired.
He gently opened a box - the box was about a foot square. After opening it, he found a round tripod inside, broken into four or five pieces and then glued together.
The rust on the tripod is quite serious, but based on Zhu Yu's half-knowledge of bronzes, it is relatively easy to repair this kind of rust.
After all, the rust is not completely present, and nearly half of the rust is caused by poor preservation. It turns out that the rust that has been produced underground for thousands of years is really not that much.
Perhaps the anti-rust technology of bronzes at that time was relatively advanced.
Of course, it can't be compared with that bronze sword.
Can't compare.
The main reason is that the bonding technology of this tripod is too rough, and it feels like ordinary people have glued it with adhesive. Not to mention that it's not a perfect fit, it's still a bit misaligned.
Zhu Yu looked sad!
The point is that there is an inscription on this round tripod!
The words were covered by rust and barely exposed at all.
However, under the influence of the Sky Eye, Zhu Yu could still clearly see what was written on it.
There are sixty-two characters in total. The main meaning is that the king was on a patrol and encountered a fierce beast. The beast wanted to attack the king, but was hit by the driver and escaped. The king was overjoyed and rewarded the driver.
The driver was rewarded for this, and his son made a tripod to commemorate the event.
The matter is actually quite simple. The important thing is that this inscription records the time and celestial phenomena of the incident.
This is more important!
Zhu Yu sighed, it's better to take this thing back and repair it at home.
After all, I am only half a bottle of vinegar.
There are a total of twelve pieces of bronze and nineteen pieces of jade in this box - the reason why the number is relatively large is mainly because the packaging is relatively simple.
Zhu Yu stopped looking. He was basically certain that these things belonged to the Zhou royal family and probably came from the tomb of a certain Zhou king.
Find professional experts to study it. Maybe the results of the research can rewrite history.
After closing the box, Zhu Yu signaled that the person could leave.
The man nodded and left.
Qin Fei helped Zhu Yu put the box away.
"Qin Fei, can you make an appointment with Liu Wei and let them go there with us? Tell him that if he can go, the reward will be very high."
Qin Fei immediately called Liu Wei.
In fact, Zhu Yu wanted to call Ran Jie and Cao Dalong, but he thought about it later.
Things there are also more urgent. At present, it seems that the city Liszt said is still a certain distance from the war zone, so it is not that dangerous.
If it was really that dangerous, Zhu Yu wouldn't plan to go.
After a while, Qin Fei came over and reported to Zhu Yu:
"Boss, Liu Wei and the others have already gone on a mission. But he also said that even if they don't go on a mission, they won't go. Although their team has only a small number of people, the target is still too big to go there.
As long as you are targeted by the military police, there is a 90% chance that you will be arrested and sent to the battlefield. So they definitely didn’t want to go and advised us not to go. "
After listening to his words, Zhu Yu thought for a while and said:
"Then the two of us will go. With fewer people, the target will be smaller. This way, any situation can be easily solved."
After making the decision, Zhu Yu called Liszt:
"Mr. Lister, I have received your sincerity. We will set off tomorrow. I hope you can provide corresponding assistance."
"No problem. We will give you a suitable identity and provide you with a driver who understands the local language. But you need to solve any troubles you encounter on the road yourself.
In normal times, I still have some influence, but currently, no one there listens, so I ask Mr. Zhu to be careful. Safety first! "
It is really sincere for an employer to say "safety first".
The next day, Zhu Yu met the young man who was used as the driver. He called himself Peter.
"I once went to university in Kiev, and I had a girlfriend there, but later we separated due to some things." Peter was very talkative and took the initiative to introduce his situation:
"Mr. Lister gave me a lot of money this time. Otherwise, I would definitely not go."
Zhu Yu still admired Peter's frankness.
From the appearance point of view, Peter is also a handsome young man, and it is normal for him to attract the beautiful women over there.
Peter was driving an off-road vehicle and already had some supplies in it.
Zhu Yu and Qin Fei purchased some more supplies. After loading the truck, Zhu Yu called Liszt again.
"Mr. Lister, we are leaving now. There may be communication interruption later. I hope you are mentally prepared."
"Then I wish you a safe journey. I will keep both of your rooms until you come back." Liszt was also very angry, "I believe you will come back safely, with good news."
After hanging up the phone, Zhu Yu and the others set off.
The car drove all the way to the southeast, which was not a particularly hurried journey.
On this day, when we arrived at the border, the inspection here was very strict.
Peter didn't let Zhu Yu and the two come forward, and took the procedures to the checkpoint. After some exchanges, the car drove in smoothly.
Of course, Zhu Yutian's eyes were open, he was alert enough, and he could see that Peter gave the other party a wad of money.
The location of this border checkpoint is relatively remote, and there are very few people coming and going. This is probably the reason why Peter was able to pass smoothly.
“Next we will try to walk around less crowded places,” Peter said while driving. “I will be responsible for communicating throughout the entire process. After all, I have lived here, so it is more convincing to talk about it.
I hope you can keep quiet, after all, none of us want to be dragged into the army, right? "
Zhu Yu and Qin Fei both nodded.
It seems that Peter actually knows quite a bit about what he wants to do.
At first, the car drove smoothly on the country road. After all, not all areas here are in chaos.
But as we continued deeper, the journey became more difficult.
Especially in some areas close to war, roads have been blown up, villages have been burned, and there are wreckage of tanks and armored vehicles nearby.
When encountering such a place, Peter would rush over with all his strength.
Later, we would encounter similar situations from time to time, and finally Zhu Yu made the decision:
"Let's continue to circle further away. We can't get closer to the war zone."
Peter was a little stubborn at first. After all, he thought Zhu Yu and the others were different from him. He had been here before, but Zhu Yu and the others had not.
But obviously, Peter overestimated his abilities.
This is like a person who has been king in the swimming pool all year round and feels that he is already a good swimmer, but in fact he knows nothing about the sea he is about to enter and the waves he is about to face.
The next day, they were driving on an empty road. This is considered a country road, and the road condition is not bad, but occasionally one or two craters ruin the peaceful atmosphere.
"Peter, it's too empty here. I suggest we find a shade tree to stop and wait until dark before leaving!"
Zhu Yu saw that Peter had no intention of evading and was still driving the car quickly, so he issued a warning.
"Mr. Zhu, don't worry so much." Peter said: "Drive forward for more than an hour and we will enter a forest. By then, we will be safe!"
Zhu Yu stuck his head out and looked at the sky. He always felt that something in the sky was spying on them.
Although the celestial eye is strong, it cannot see that high.
His actions made Qin Fei a little nervous.
Ran Jie, Qin Fei and the three of them knew very well that once Zhu Yu felt that he was in danger, there would really be danger around him.
Qin Fei is not as easy to talk to as Zhu Yu. He has already taken out his gun - this gun was given to him by Zhu Yu when he entered the border.
Qin Fei admired Zhu Yu's ability to obtain weapons at any time.
He was already planning to point a gun at Peter. At this moment, Zhu Yu suddenly shouted:
"Danger! There are bombs in the sky! Jump out of the car!"
After saying that, he opened the car door and jumped out!
Qin Fei didn't hesitate at all, immediately opened the door on the other side and jumped out!
Peter was terrified too!
However, he subconsciously believed Zhu Yu's statement. After all, there were many drones over this land.
No one can guarantee whether there are drones dropping bombs in the sky!
Peter turned the steering wheel to the left and drove the car off the roadbed. Before the car hit the tree, he rolled and jumped!
The next moment, there was a "boom" on the highway and an explosion!
Zhu Yu and Qin Fei had already rolled down to the bottom of the roadbed, found a cover, and looked up at the sky warily.
Zhu Yu had already seen a drone hovering at an altitude of tens of meters, and it was the drone that dropped the bomb.
At this moment, it seemed to be adjusting its direction and wanted to drop another bomb - this was a small drone that was not considered advanced and was a domestic toy from China.
It can hold two bombs, which is not too big.
Of course, it's okay to blow up a lot of people.
Before Zhu Yu could say anything, Qin Fei had already raised his gun, aimed at the drone and fired!
"boom!"
One of the wings of the drone was broken, its balance was broken, and it drifted down.
Finally, it fell into the field dozens of meters away, and then exploded with a "boom"!
Zhu Yu looked at the sky again and found that there were no other drones around. He immediately got up and together with Qin Fei, pulled Peter up.
"Hurry up and get the car out, we have to leave quickly!"
Only then did Peter react and get into the car immediately. At this time, the car had not completely shut down. The three of them worked together to drive the car onto the road, and then rushed forward as fast as possible.
By the time two other drones flew over to look for it, there was no sign of the car.
In the next few days, Peter began to follow Zhu Yu's words and take detours, mainly resting during the day and driving at night.
This indeed reduces a lot of risks——
There was a section of road in the middle, where they hid the car and watched a car drive past quickly.
When they were on their way, they found the car parked on the side of the road. The car was turned over in a mess, there was blood on the ground, but the person was missing.
Qin Fei looked at the ground and said:
"There are bullet casings, and a dozen people came over. They should have captured the people inside."
Peter's face immediately turned ugly.
He had also seen the news, and he knew where the people who were captured were sent to in the end.
Zhu Yu clapped his hands and said:
"Let's go, let's get out of here as soon as possible. Don't wait for those people to fight back. Look at the satellite map to see if there are other roads nearby. I'm afraid the road ahead is impossible."
According to the satellite map, they changed to a small road.
Although the road was difficult to walk and there were not many people on it, at least there was no danger.
"boom!"
The path was difficult to walk, which made Zhu Yu very uncomfortable for people who were used to the kind of people in China where every village has asphalt roads.
It seems like we are back twenty years ago.
Then it got a flat tire.
Fortunately, the three of them knew each other quite well. After changing the tire, Zhu Yu said:
"Let's take a rest first. We shouldn't be far from our destination."
Peter said:
"Originally, we should be able to get there today. But if we change the route, it will still take another day."
Then he felt lucky again:
"Thankfully we changed our ways, otherwise, I'm afraid we would have been captured and used as cannon fodder by now!"
There is no human habitation nearby. What used to be a large area of fertile farmland is now covered with weeds.
Zhu Yu and the other three were eating self-heating food, and felt a little emotional looking at the scene in front of them.
"No wonder our ancestors said, 'It's better to be a peace dog than to flee from chaos.'" Qin Fei pointed to the large field and said:
“I don’t know what a pity it would be for the farmers in our hometown to see such good land being abandoned!”
"Okay, let's do our job well and stop worrying about others." After Zhu Yu finished eating, he shook his head and said, "You can't make it."
"Boss, I always feel that there is some ambiguity in your words." Qin Fei also put away the finished box, took the box from Zhu Yu's hand, and found a place to bury it.
"Don't let others hear this. They will misunderstand you."
"I didn't say anything." Zhu Yu smiled, "Next, we have to be more careful.
Liszt said, we are not the only ones to make these things. When we get to the place, I will find you some powerful weapons. If you find something wrong, I will shoot! "
"Don't worry, boss. Here, I don't have such high moral pressure. Survival is the most important thing!" Qin Fei knew what Zhu Yu meant.
If there is a woman's kindness here, then wait to die!
The car started again, and Peter became increasingly silent.
A few hours later, the sky was completely bright, and the outline of the city in the distance was very clear.
Peter got out of the car and said to Zhu Yu:
"Mr. Zhu, I will drive here and wait for you. I will not drive the car into the city. The goal is too big. The next step is up to you. I will hide the car nearby and wait for you to come back. .”
Zhu Yu and Qin Fei were both surprised, but they quickly understood.
"Okay, then you hide well and don't wait for us to come back. It would be bad if you were captured." Qin Fei nodded calmly, "At that time, we will not go over to rescue you."
The half-joking words made Peter's expression become awkward, and he couldn't answer.
Zhu Yu and Qin Fei carried their bags and walked towards the city.
Peter looked at their backs, obviously he should be safer than them, but it seems that at this time, he is the only one who is in danger?
I hope it’s an illusion!
