Nangong Yi didn't rush to answer my question. Instead, she sat on the chair steadily. She looked at us and started telling me stories.
"Maybe you don't know who I am!" Nangong Yi said. I believe you all have heard of my father's name. My father is Nanjo Yuo!”
When Nangong Yi said this, I was instantly stunned. Actually, I should have thought of this long ago. Ever since Ke 'er mentioned Nangong Yi's name to me, I should have thought of this.
Nanjo Yuo was a senior geologist from half a century ago. He had once led a team across half of the Earth. What they had done back then was for the needs of the country. This group of people were all acting in secret. On the surface, they were using geological exploration as a cover, but no one knew what they were actually doing.
Back then, Nanjo Yuxiong's team had discovered an ancient bronze cauldron in the Amazon forest. After the news spread, Nanjo Yuxiong and his team disappeared without a trace.
I understand Nanjo Yuxiong because of some of the unique insights he gave in front of everyone. He once gave a very unique explanation in public. The theory revolved around some abnormal accidents that occurred on Earth.
" Something unknown has always been happening on our planet. Perhaps something incredible is happening in a certain corner of the world. For example, a certain corner of the world might suddenly disappear! My initial theory should be: The earth was changing, constantly changing. These changes were indirectly affecting people's lives, including people's thoughts! There must be some kind of power supporting this change. Although I don't know the ultimate goal of this change, I can be sure that this change will have an increasingly serious impact on people.”
In my memory, Nanjo Yuo's words were very memorable. The reason was that after he finished speaking, he didn't say anything else. Instead, he smiled at the audience and disappeared into the crowd.
After this speech, the news of Nanjo Yuxiong discovering the bronze cauldron in the Amazon spread. After that, Nanjo Yuxiong disappeared.
When Nangong Yi said her father's name, I suddenly realized that what Nangong Yi had said to us just now was not nonsense. After Nangong Yi told us her father's name, she looked at our expressions and continued,"How much did my father contribute to the country when he was alive? Without my father, there would be nothing! Do you know how much wealth my father excavated from Earth back then for the country? You can't imagine how the country treated my father.”
After saying this, Nangong Yi's voice became a little excited. After seeing Nangong Yi's expression, I stood up and looked at Nangong Yi."Don't be agitated! Don't get agitated!" I tried to calm Nangong Yi down by saying this. After a short rest, Nangong Yi continued,"Ever since my father discovered the bronze cauldron, the country sent batches of assassins. At that time, I was still young and didn't know anything! This is the only thing my father left me!”
After saying this, Nangong Yi waved at Ke Er. At this moment, I realized that Ke Er had gone out while we were talking. At this moment, Ke Er was holding a square metal box in her hand. This box looked to be about half a meter in size. Ke Er placed this box on the table in front of us!”
Then, Ke 'er stood behind Nangong Yi. Nangong Yi looked at us and opened the box. The few of us stood up together to look inside the box.
There was a cauldron inside. It was basically the size of two fists. The cauldron looked like it was made of bronze, but its shape was special. There was a dragon embedded in the round mouth of the cauldron. There were four supports at the mouth of the cauldron, and there were pits on the supports. The fingernail was only the size of a finger joint.
The cauldron was inlaid with a blue gem. The gem was not very big, about the size of a thumb. The patterns on the cauldron were very messy, and it looked a little like a map.
There were three supports below the cauldron, supporting the top so that it could be placed firmly on the table.
The strange thing was that the cauldron had a lid. The lid was made from the head of an unknown stone. It was a white stone that did not look like jade or stalactite.
When we saw this cauldron, we were all shocked. It seemed that NanGong YuXiong really did find this thing. What was inside this cauldron that made NanGong YuXiong risk his life to preserve it?
Nangong Yi asked us to look at the cauldron, then gently placed it in the center of the table. Nangong Yi's eyes never left us. She held the support below the cauldron and looked at us."You must have never seen what's inside this cauldron!”
Nangong Yi held the tripod with her left hand and gently opened the lid of the tripod with her right hand. When the lid was opened, we saw something very impressive.
This cauldron contained a cauldron of water, but this water was different from other water because this water was rotating on its own. During the rotation, it constantly changed the direction of the water flow. At the same time, the patterns in the cauldron were reflected in the water, making it look like it was traveling in space.
Nangong Yi looked at us and said," I've taken something out of this cauldron before, but every time I take it out, it will instantly return to this cauldron. Because I can't take it out at all, I'm still not sure what it is!”
After seeing this, I looked at Nangong Yi and said,""This is what your father left for you. I think he should have told you something else, right?”When Nangong Yi took out this cauldron, I knew that she must have discovered something from it. Otherwise, he wouldn't have placed this cauldron out!
Nangong Yi looked at me and said,"That's right!" My father called the thing inside this cauldron the "Origin of Life", but unfortunately, there was only one. Back then, my father told me that there should be a few cauldrons like this in this world, but he only found one of them. His theory was that this cauldron must have some unknown effect, but my father died too early.”
After Nangong Yi said that, I understood what was going on. It meant that a large part of Nangong Yi's ability to hypnotize others came from this cauldron.
Since I had guessed it, there was no need to ask Nangong Yi. I looked at Nangong Yi and continued,"What does this cauldron have to do with your purpose of saving me?”
Nangong Yi stopped what she was doing and looked at me.""I saved you and called the Tang brothers here today for this cauldron! I want you to help me find a few more cauldrons like this!”
These words are beyond my expectations. Could it be that there are other such things? If that was the case, it was even more unbelievable that Nanjo Yuxiong had spent so much manpower and resources to find this cauldron. Now, there were actually a few more such things. One could imagine how difficult it was.
I looked at Nangong Yi in disbelief and said,""How many more of this thing do you think there are?”Nangong Yi nodded at me steadily. I could sit on the chair. At this moment, I felt that I needed to wake myself up.
" Because of this, it's hard to say whether it's a blessing or a disaster. First of all, I don't care how Nangong Yi knew that there were other cauldrons like this in this world. Just the cauldron that Nangong Yi is holding right now doesn't feel like anything good. Nangong Yi borrowed the power of this cauldron to give herself the ability to hypnotize others. Then, what other abilities do the other cauldrons have? Whether these abilities were good or bad, it was uncertain.
I sat on the chair and was thinking about this matter. The Tang brothers looked at the cauldron in Nangong Yi's hand and said,"Sister Yi! How many such things do you think there are in this world? How are you so sure?"
Nangong Yi looked at the Tang brothers and said,""My father told me that as long as we find the other cauldrons, we can solve the mysteries of the earth's interior, so I hope that you can search with me!”
The Tang brothers nodded after hearing Nangong Yi's words. At this time, I stood up and looked at Nangong Yi."This is not your goal! This was not your goal!”
This is just my feeling, a very strong feeling. My feeling tells me that Nangong Yi didn't go through so much trouble to gather us together for some absurd purpose like unraveling the mysteries of Earth.
This was the first time Nangong Yi looked at me seriously. At this moment, Nangong Yi's eyes were filled with confusion, as if I had guessed Nangong Yi's goal! After Nangong Yi looked at me for a full minute, she said,""This is indeed not my goal! My father was not killed by the people of the country, because my father disappeared in front of my eyes!”
When Nangong Yi said this, all of us were stunned. A living person could actually disappear! This is incomprehensible. After Nangong Yi said this, she looked at us and continued,"The place I'm going to take you to is beyond your imagination, so I need people with special abilities like you! I know that you are all people who live on the edge of a knife. Money means nothing to you, so I don't want to bribe you with money. I just want to find my father!”
Nangong Yi didn't say anything else after she said that. Then, the gorilla looked at me and the Tang brothers and said,""Sister Yi won't make things difficult for you. If you want to quit now, Sister Yi won't blame you! Think about it carefully. Even if you leave, please don't tell anyone about what happened today!”
After saying that, Nangong Yi left with the gorilla. Ke 'er also left with the cauldron. Now, only the Tang brothers and I were left in this room. The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
