Chapter 12 - Chapter 12:Open the treasure chest!

With a mere light touch, Zhang Fan's body unleashed a subtle yet powerful energy, instantly producing a remarkable effect. In an instant, he successfully triggered the lines on the transformed treasure chest. In an instant, the entire treasure chest underwent a subtle transformation, emitting a faint light. In an instant, the lid of the treasure chest, which was originally tightly closed, suddenly appeared with a slight crack. The treasure chest was opened!

The treasure chest was opened. In an instant, Zhang Fan was thrilled. His excitement was amplified by the uncle's obsession. However, at this point, both parties had reached a consensus, so there was no further discussion.

Zhang Fan pressed his palm firmly against the treasure chest. This was the moment of truth. That's right. Open the chest and you'll see what's inside.

So, what kind of exciting treasure is in the chest?

I can't wait to find out what's in the chest! It's going to be amazing!

Without a second thought, Zhang Fan reached out and opened the treasure chest in front of him. Is there any other action I can take?

That's not the case at all.

Open the treasure chest. It's that simple.

I didn't use much force. The treasure chest is clearly equipped with a power-assisting device. Oh, it's also the function completed by the lines on it. It's actually quite simple. Zhang Fan understood it at a glance. Zhang Fan is going to make good use of this convenient and labour-saving function! In other words, it is extremely convenient!

Just apply a little force.

The lid of the treasure chest was opened with precision and ease, revealing an immaculate interior.

I can confirm that there is no dust or damage. It is exactly the same as when it was first installed. It is still exactly the same as before. Such a box is extremely valuable. It will definitely make a fortune if it is sold to museums!

However, Zhang Fan is definitely not thinking that way now.

Let's take a closer look at the contents of the box. Upon opening the box, it becomes evident that a sensor light is present within. The box lights up suddenly, emitting a soft, bright light that illuminates the inside of the box clearly. This is the simplest and most trouble-free solution, although Zhang Fan doesn't actually need this. He can see at night, and he has been in a state of night vision until now.

It is opened, completely opened!

Zhang Fan looked over and over again. Gold, jewellery, precious metals, gems, artworks... This is the treasure Zhang Fan has been waiting for. It is also a treasure in the traditional sense.

However, there is a problem.

The reality in front of me is clear: the uncle's obsession is joyful. Zhang Fan feels this, but in fact, Zhang Fan feels nothing at all!

It is, in fact, quite tragic!

I want to know what those things are!

There's a full box of parchment scrolls!

These things undoubtedly have historical value. It's just a broken stone axe. It is old. It is, without a doubt, at least tens of thousands of years old. It is also extremely valuable, especially when you consider the parchment scrolls. Such cases do exist. Manuscripts with great historical value are sold at a high price!

So, let me be clear: are these parchment scrolls valuable manuscripts?

The parchment scrolls are perfectly preserved. Zhang Fan is certain that he can touch them without worrying that they will be destroyed. These manuscripts are not fragile!

It is, in fact, quite strong. It can be regarded as leather armour even if more than ten layers are stacked together.

And...

I must say, the craftsmanship of these parchments is somewhat lacking. Oh, it's supernatural!

It is entirely possible that if it is the work of a group of people, the box and the parchments are perfectly reasonable.

Zhang Fan took out a parchment roll and opened it slightly to take a look.

On it, I can see...

It was confusing. It was not any kind of text that Zhang Fan was familiar with. It was clear that the uncle was unfamiliar with this text. Although it was somewhat familiar, it was evident that these were unreadable, at least for the time being.

It's just...

Although it cannot be deciphered, Zhang Fan can understand what the content looks like by observing some of the patterns and graphics in it.

That is quite something.

Anyway, as far as Zhang Fan is concerned, it is common sense derived from the uncle's recollections. It is clear that nine out of ten of these items cannot be sold at a high price.

And when he thought of this time, he was certain that the uncle's obsession had returned. The uncle was unequivocal in his disagreement with the idea of selling these precious parchments.

Absolutely!

Zhang Fan once again gave in to the uncle's obsession, despite having no intention of selling them himself. They were not worth much, so there was no need to waste effort on them!

Let me tell you something.

These parchments are records of the supernatural power of this world and methods of use. In other words, they may have some use in ancient times, but in this Dharma Ending Age, they are completely useless.

Zhang Fan also wanted to laugh.

If Zhang Fan didn't recognise the words at all, how could he possibly have seen it? That's a very simple thing. If he couldn't understand the words, he certainly couldn't understand the pictures.

There were all kinds of supernatural pictures, magic circles, demons, strange minerals, plants, and star maps. In fact, anyone could guess what they were after just one look.

Zhang Fan threw away the parchment scroll in his hand, confident that the other parchments would reveal something different.

Then, he opened a few more, and they all had the same content!

Zhang Fan lost interest suddenly.

He was ready to move on to another treasure chest. Fortunately, there were still plenty of treasures left, so Zhang Fan was confident that he would find something of interest.
