"This is a goblet, a vessel used for drinking in ancient China. It is also used as a ritual vessel. It has a high ring foot, an open mouth, a long body, and both the mouth and the bottom are trumpet-shaped. This bronze shape appeared in the Shang Dynasty. And the early Western Zhou Dynasty, it is very rare in the middle Western Zhou Dynasty."

Li Mo looked at it with different pupils, and a colorful halo was emitted from his body. This is an authentic bronze ware from the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the most important weapon of the country!

Because bronze wares belong to the country's most important utensils, Li Mo has almost never encountered genuine ones among the people in China, so there are very few opportunities to use the mobile phone.However, the United States, far away from the ocean, encountered a well-preserved bronze goblet of the Shang and Zhou dynasties.

Another piece in the wooden box is also a genuine bronze goblet.

At this time Sima Haotian and Steven walked in, Li Mo looked back at Sima Haotian: "You come here and take a look at these first."

Sima Haotian walked up to him, and his eyes were attracted to him. His expression became obviously serious, and he took out one with both hands and looked carefully at the light.

"Mr. Qin, this is a bronze goblet that appeared in the early Shang and Zhou dynasties. If it is authentic, it is definitely a first-class national treasure."

"I preliminarily identified it as genuine, but unfortunately there is no inscription on it. Come on, let's move this wooden box away, and I will see what is in the second wooden box."

Soon the second wooden box was pried open, and the wooden whiskers used for protection were pulled away, revealing a bronze vessel again.Li Mo took it out with both hands and put it on the ground, Sima Haotian took out a flashlight from his bag and looked at it.

"Mr. Qin, there is an inscription here."

Sima Haotian suddenly shouted excitedly, Li Mo hurriedly looked, and there were indeed two inscriptions, but he couldn't make out what the two inscriptions meant.

"Drinking pot, this is a bronze pot." Sima Haotian touched the inscription with his fingers and gave a translation, "I have seen similar bronze wares from the Western Zhou Dynasty in the treasure house of Wandao Museum, but those There are no inscriptions. But this one has its own inscription, if it is identified as genuine, it is definitely a weapon of the town, it is amazing, it is amazing."

This bronze pot has a small body, an oval shape with a hanging belly, ring feet, and a handle on the top of the lid.There are curved ridges on the four sides of the vessel and the cover, symmetrically curved snake patterns on the edge of the cover and ring feet, symmetrical bird patterns on the neck of the vessel, and symmetrical deformed scroll dragon patterns on the cover and abdomen. Thunderlane decoration.

When Li Moyi looked at it, it still emitted a colorful halo. It was definitely a state-defending weapon with inscriptions from the Shang and Zhou dynasties.

He originally wanted to pry open the remaining four wooden boxes, but he turned around and gave up the idea. Instead, he looked directly with different pupils, and the remaining wooden boxes were all genuine bronze wares.

"Re-reinforce the two wooden boxes, Dashan, and ask someone to move all six wooden boxes to the outside hall. Remember, you can discard anything, but there must be no mistakes in these six wooden boxes."

Dashan immediately understood that these bronze wares were the supreme national treasures.

"Don't worry, with us here, there will be absolutely no mistakes."

Da Shan turned around and went out to call for someone. Li Mo took the initiative to pick up the packing box on the ground and said, "Mr. Sima, we packed all the porcelain on the shelf carefully. They are all genuine products from the Qing Dynasty. There are 42 pieces in total."

Only then did Sima Haotian turn his attention to the porcelain on the shelf, he picked up one casually and looked at it: "This is a genuine Qianlong Yellow Ground Pastel Jar with Fruit Pattern, Mr. Qin, what do you think the previous owner of this antique shop is?" The origin, how can there be so many genuine antiques in the hands, it is simply unbelievable, I dare not imagine."

"I suddenly had a bad premonition. In order to avoid nights and dreams, we must safely transport all the antiques out overnight, and then let Gu Lishi and Steven transfer this antique shop immediately tomorrow."

"You are right, we are not familiar with the place here, so we should play it safe."

It was not until after seven o'clock in the evening that all 42 pieces of porcelain were packed and shipped to the hall outside.

"Mr. Qin, the support team from Washington will not arrive until around twelve o'clock in the middle of the night. When will we ship these things that have been sorted out?"

Da Shan put down his cell phone, he just contacted the embassy again, and briefly reported the findings here.The most important thing is that bronzes with inscriptions were found this time. In Li Mo's words, everything else can be discarded, but these state-defending utensils must be transported back.

Only two of the six wooden boxes were opened, and more valuable bronzes may appear in the remaining four.Li Mo didn't check them one by one, they just need the order.

"When it's quiet in the middle of the night, don't attract too many people's attention."

"Yes."

"Steven, please take the two brothers out to buy some food. If you see Chinese restaurants around, buy more Chinese food. If it doesn't work, get some fast food and have supper when you get back to the hotel."

"Okay, I'll go out and buy now."

At this time, Wu Yue carried a protective box to the hall, put it down, went to Li Mo and whispered: "According to your instructions, I had someone search the bedroom, and found a hidden door in the bedroom. There is another space. Because I was afraid of unknown dangers, I didn’t go in to check.”

That's right, such a big antique shop, with so many authentic antiques, how could it be possible to just have a simple warehouse, so there should be a secret room in an unknown place in this antique shop.

"Let's go take a look."

Dashan and Xingkong stayed in the hall to sit in charge, Wuyue and Jitou accompanied him into the bedroom, where there were three security guards waiting.The secret door is behind a bedside table, because it is integrated with the bedside background wall, if you don't look carefully, you really can't find it.

The secret door has already been opened, and I shine it with a flashlight. There are stairs going down, and there is a turn, so I can't see what's going on below.

Li Moyitong looked carefully, and after 2 minutes he said in a deep voice, "Wu Yue and Sting Tou will follow me down, and the others are waiting outside."

"Yes, Mr. Qin."

"I'm in front, you follow."

Li Mo got in first, and walked down step by step with the flashlight.After taking about thirteen steps and turning the corner, there was no danger for the time being.The three of them walked another thirteen steps to the basement floor, but what appeared in front of them was a black door.

Thorn stepped forward and tapped and said, "It's made of pure copper. There should be a control switch to turn it on here. Let's look for it together."

As for the switch, Li Mo had already found it through perspective, but he couldn't find it directly, so he followed the other two people to search on the wall and on the ground.

"There are many raised shapes on the wall, and the control switches are probably hidden among them. Be careful, everyone."

Li Mo did not forget to remind them, and then saw Wu Yue touch the control switch.

"Mr. Qin, there is something abnormal about this bulge."

Li Mo hurried over, reached out and touched it: "You all retreat to the stairs."

"Mr. Qin, let me come. You retreat to the stairs." The stabbing head grabbed Li Mo's arm and prevented him from trying. "If it involves safety issues here, you must listen to us."

There is no danger, but Li Mo nodded hesitantly and retreated to the stairs.

"Stab, be careful."

Thorn took a deep breath, and the raised button began to spin.With a click, the black pure copper door slowly opened with a harsh friction sound.At the same time, there was a faint light coming from inside. After the heavy door was fully opened, with the help of the faint light, Li Mo saw that there was a passage about ten meters ahead.

When he looked at it with different pupils, his whole body was suddenly icy cold, as if he had fallen into a thousand-year-old ice hole.The walls on both sides of the passage are covered with dense round holes.The front half of the road behind the wall is equipped with mechanical crossbows, while the back half of the road is full of fully automatic firearms. Once it touches the mechanism, this ten-meter-long passage will become a road of death , five people can survive by luck.

"Mr. Qin, I'll explore the way ahead."

The stab head was about to go in first, but was grabbed by Li Mo.

"Don't move, this road is the road of death, don't be reckless."

"How did you know?"

"You should know from my information that I was exiled to an isolated island in the Indian Ocean, and I survived a submarine earthquake and tsunami. I have a very strange feeling about unknown dangers, just like many animals in the animal kingdom It’s like animals have a premonition before an earthquake comes.” Li Mo said in a deep voice, with a solemn expression, “When I saw this passage, I got goosebumps all over my body, it’s very ominous. This feeling is like when I had a premonition of a tsunami under the sea. Cold all over."
