Chapter 16 Birthday Gift

  "Ahem, ahem, alright, let's not talk about that for now. Xiao Ye Lang, can you show us the box you bought?"

  "Hu Niang, give the box to him." Xiao Baijiazi readily agreed. He was originally not very concerned about these things, although he bought them, but he didn't mind giving them to anyone and didn't care if there was any return.

  To put it in his words, a prodigal son wouldn't care about these things.

  When General Li excitedly took over the box, and everyone looked forward to it with bated breath, they suddenly discovered something that made everyone feel a bit depressed - there was another box inside this box.

  This doesn't just make one think of one thing, will this box be the kind that has a box inside it, repeating like this until notes appear.

  Think about it, just a notebook, how big can it be? This box is obviously too large.

  The result is still good. It turns out that this box wasn't like that, but now the problem has come out again. This box needs some procedures to open it, and these procedures may be very difficult.

  "What the hell, this class is seriously messed up! They actually locked their notes in a box, how are we supposed to study?" Li Da Yuan Shuai cursed loudly at the first opportunity.

  No, this box is not an ordinary box, but a box with intricate mechanisms made by Ban with great care, and these mechanisms require very deep alchemy knowledge to decipher. This is his test for the destined person, he doesn't want his notes to be seen by ignorant people, if you want to see his notes, you must have the alchemy skills that he recognizes.

  And this box is actually an examination paper for humans.

  As for this, the people present were easy to guess, and immediately called the strongest alchemists in the empire to crack it. Fortunately, these people were all nearby.

  Because of this box, everyone's attention seems to have been drawn away and they forgot some things, such as the two little birthday stars today. Fortunately, these two little birthday stars are very generous and did not care about these things, but just happily played on the side.

  Kids will be kids, it's best when adults aren't paying attention, they can play and have fun freely.

  "...so you're saying that even you can't crack it for the time being?" The emperor frowned, asking with some surprise.

  "Yes, Your Majesty, this box requires a very complex procedure to open it. If there is an error in the middle, I'm afraid it will trigger the mechanism inside and destroy the notes. So we need time to study it slowly." The alchemists said.

  "It's true, since it's a box for the class, it won't be that simple. You can take your time to study it, I believe you want to see what's inside more than I do," said the Emperor.

  That's right, what's inside is what all alchemists want to see, they are more anxious than anyone else to know Ben's alchemy insights.

  "Hehe......" The alchemists all started laughing, with a silly laugh, but this silliness was the kind that made many people find it lovable.

  "Your Majesty, may I ask impertinently, where did this box come from?" The alchemists asked curiously after their joyful foolish smiles.

  "We should thank our little birthday star today, our young master Ye. You all go and wish him a happy birthday too." The emperor pointed to the thirteen-year-old young master playing an unknown game with the seventh princess in the square.

  The alchemists were initially puzzled as to what connection this and that spendthrift had, but soon recalled that it must be the legendary super spendthrift who had bought this box somewhere, having long heard that his luck was always mysterious.

  It's fortunate that this thing is indeed a very lucky event. In fact, over the past few hundred years, this box would appear at auction houses and antique shops from time to time, with prices that were unacceptable to people.

  Those who do these things, as well as Ben's own words, this thing he hopes to have people with extremely high alchemy technology see, and also hopes that someone with a good fate will get it, and before that, no one will reveal any news in between.

  However, once someone gets it, they will immediately announce it to the world, as if to prevent being buried by this lucky person.

  Fortunately, it was they who announced it to the world. Otherwise, this box would have been sleeping in Tiger Girl's space bag and would have had little chance of seeing the light of day again.

  To thank the young master for his "contribution", the alchemists indeed came to celebrate his birthday, and soon they considered a problem, they seemed to need to give him something as a birthday gift.

  They were all originally rushing over, with no preparation on their bodies, but soon someone thought of a good idea.

  "Little Master, happy birthday to you! I don't have anything good to give you, so I'll just give you this book." A alchemist took out a book and gave it to Little Spendthrift, and as an alchemist's gift, the book was naturally about alchemy.

  Books are a source of knowledge. Giving this as a gift may not be flashy, but it will never go out of style and no one will say it's inappropriate. Moreover, it is suitable for both the old and the young.

  It started with one person, and then others also began to send books. They would bring alchemy-related books at any time and place, and they also avoided sending repeated ones.

  These people are all top alchemists on the mainland. Although they only sent books, these books are also very precious and some of them are hard to come by.

  Although Xiao Baijiazi was very puzzled as to why these people suddenly came over and even gave him books, he accepted all the gifts without hesitation.

  "This box...... let me see......" Suddenly, Xiao Bai's eyes fell on the box in the alchemist's hand, and a momentary confusion appeared in his eyes.

  At this time, everyone seemed to understand Xiao Baijiazi's confused expression as him doubting whether the box was the same one from before.

  If it were someone else's request, the alchemists would have refused, but they now knew that the original owner of the box was this little bankrupt in front of them, and they still hesitated to hand over the box to the little bankrupt, while also reminding him to be careful.

  "What is this thing?" Little Defeated Family Son looked at it for a while, then pointed at one of the alchemy arrays above and asked.

  "This is a defensive alchemy formation, connected to the alchemy formations on the sides, surrounding the entire box. It can protect the integrity of the box while also ensuring that it cannot be opened in any other way. I've never seen this arrangement before, so we'll need to study it further." The alchemist began his professional explanation.

  "Oh..." Little Defeat's son replied, staring at the box.
