I patted his shoulder to express my agreement, Aoki walked out, Dante deliberately turned his head away as if he couldn't see him.Aoki opened the door and walked out. I just smiled lightly and didn't say anything, but I was thinking in my heart: Don't look down on him, what he told me must be much more interesting than what you want to tell me.I took a few steps forward, sat down opposite him, exchanged some pleasantries with him, and said: "You came to see me because of..." Dante moved his body: "What I want to talk about is only between you and me." I said, "Okay, please tell me."

Dante rubbed his hands, then took off the belt he was wearing, and handed it to me: "Please take a good look at these treasures under the light." I went to the table, turned on the light, and looked at the diamonds and gems on the back of the belt.In terms of my common sense of jewelry, these boutiques are really amazing. I looked at it for a while, then raised my head: "In my life, I have never seen so many high-quality goods together." Dante was very pleased with my comment.He walked over: "If I said that there is a place, the treasures in it are a hundred times, or even a thousand times, what would you say?"

I thought for a while: "Is that the treasure you mentioned?" Dante's expression was a little annoyed: "You still don't believe it." I smiled: "You are too sensitive, it's not that you don't believe it. In fact, after seeing these treasures, no one will doubt that you have more." Dante looked happy: "The jewelry I am carrying now was brought out from Turkey by my grandmother. My grandmother is..." Judging by his expression, he seemed to be searching for words, how to introduce his grandmother.I picked it up: "Mr. Osman, you are legendary, so after we met last time and some misunderstandings occurred, I already know a lot about you, including the even more legendary grandmother Ling. "

Dante said "Oh": "You already know everything about me very well, so I don't need to introduce myself anymore?" I said, "Yes, you can say that." Dante said "hmm" again, and then his expression suddenly became tense, and he moved forward and moved closer to me.Although he and I were obviously the only two people in the room, but looking at his expression, it seemed that many people were waiting to eavesdrop on his words. After he approached me, he said: "Mr. Wei, my grandmother, has been to that treasure house." Dante was obviously very excited by what he was about to say, he was even panting: "On my twentieth birthday, she told me, she said, this secret, only I know, And I can only tell one other person, never anyone else."

I was very curious: "Why did you choose me?" Dante took a breath: "For things to go smoothly, you must get help. Ever since I knew this secret, I have been looking for someone to work with. A few years ago, I began to hear something about you. Collecting your information, it's a coincidence to meet you this time, otherwise, after this jewelry exhibition, I will make a special trip to find you." I said: "If Grandma Ling has entered that treasure house before, it shouldn't be difficult for you to enter again..." I was tactfully refusing to be his partner, but Dante also understood what I meant, and before I finished speaking, he hurriedly said: "No, no, there is something very strange about it, if you have time, Would you like to hear my grandmother's account?"

I said "ah": "Grandmother Ling is in Switzerland? I'm afraid I won't be able to find time..." Dante interrupted me again: "No, her narration was recorded. She knew that I must tell this story to another person, and she was afraid that some important parts would be missed in the narration, so she did it. Arrange like this." As he spoke, he took out a flat gold box from his coat pocket.One corner of this box is inlaid with a pattern of small diamonds and rubies. The whole box is very delicate. After he took out the box, he opened it, and there were two cassette tapes on the inside.When I saw that there were as many as two volumes of tapes, I couldn't help frowning.

Dante is very sensitive, and he immediately sensed my reaction: "Mr. Wei, my grandmother's narration lasted a total of eighty-seven minutes... Although the time is a little longer, after you listen to it, you will definitely not regret it." I made a gesture: "I have to figure something out." Dante looked directly at me.I pointed to the tape: "Is there only one person who can listen to Grandma Ling?" Dante said: "Yes, after you listen to it, I will destroy the tape, and my grandmother will never tell anyone about her experience." I smiled: "What I want to understand is this: Does this mean that if I listen to it, I must become your partner?"

Dante was stunned for a long while: "Whether you want to be my partner or not, this...Of course after listening, it's up to you to decide." I said: "If I refuse, when you find another partner, you must tell him again. Wouldn't it be one more person who knows?" Dante's expression was annoyed and determined: "No, you are the only partner I have chosen, only you! If you don't agree, the whole thing will be settled, and I will never mention it to anyone in my life." I was very moved by the firmness of his words.Dante is arrogant, he only picked me, I really should have listened to his grandmother.

Anyway, I’ve already heard what Kiichi Aoki said about Yamamoto Isashiro and the Tenkoku, so why not listen to an old woman’s story about her and the treasure house of the Ottoman Empire in Turkey! I changed my sitting posture and concentrated on it: "I'm waiting for a friend, if he comes, it may be interrupted for a while, do you mind?" Dante looked very unwilling, and I explained: "We made an appointment, I didn't know you would come. Shall we listen to Grandma Ling's narration another day?" Dante shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter, as soon as your friend comes, we will stop."

He took out a small tape recorder, put in the tape, pressed the playback button, and sat down with his hands folded on his lap. In the tape recorder, an old woman's voice came out, speaking not very pure, but extremely fluent French. At the beginning, Dante looked at me, raised his eyebrows, and asked me about my ability to understand French. I made another gesture to indicate that there was no problem. Before I listened to Dante's grandmother's tapes, I was thinking in my heart: I don't know what luck I have had today. I have to listen to two stories a day, one from an old naval officer, and the other from a supposedly Turkish palace. old woman.Although these two people lived together on the earth, they were too far apart. The stories they told must have nothing in common.

But when I heard half of it, I was too surprised to speak.After listening to it, I stayed there for an unknown period of time. It was not until Dante called me several times that I woke up like a dream and regained my composure. Two people with completely different life backgrounds have the same unbelievable features in the stories they tell, which is something I never imagined! Although I still don't understand the mystery after listening to the two stories, I know at least one thing: there is a connection between the two things. Now, my analysis like this is useless, because others don't know what Dante's grandmother said, and when they know it, they will naturally agree with me. During Dante's grandmother's narration, Dante intervened several times, which I also recorded.The old woman's narration is quite long, and Dante must have heard it more than once, so he knows that the total time is eighty-seven minutes. By the way, during these eighty-seven minutes, I was not disturbed in any way. Jonson never mentioned the name of Dante's grandmother. I don't know, and Dante didn't tell me. The story I heard, It is all narrated by the old woman in the first person, and I have retained the form of her narration. The following is the story of Dante's grandmother: "My child, today is your twentieth birthday. Twenty years old, I am an adult, and I want to tell you something. You may not believe it, but what you told me, There can be no doubts, absolutely not, you must accept everything without reservation, because you are already an adult, I can make such a request to you. I have waited for many years until your twentieth birthday, and I can ask you You say this. "You have listened to my words, not only must you keep them in mind, but also, you will need a companion who can really help you. This matter, apart from yourself, can only be mentioned to this companion. There may be mistakes and omissions for your interpretation , so now I am recording, recording my voice, so that the companion you are looking for can hear my voice just like you. You have to be careful to keep the tape, because if you find a companion, maybe I am no longer alive, so I can no longer Say it again. "Well, many years ago, on your father's twentieth birthday, I also told him about this incident. I asked him to believe it absolutely and keep it in mind. It's a pity that your father died early and had no chance to do anything. Passed away. May he rest in peace. I am very lucky to be able to recount this incident to my grandson. Son, listen, you are the last heir of Xuan He's Ottoman Empire, AD 1 In 290, your ancestor, Osman I, founded the Ottoman Empire. "You are born with the ability to identify jewelry. Others will be surprised. I don't think it is surprising. That is expected: since the establishment of the Ottoman Empire, jewelry belonging to the royal family has never been seen before in human history. The blood of the Ottoman royal family flows in your body. Jewelry is to you what barley and wheat are to the farm children who have been farming for generations. They are a part of your life. "The collection of jewels in the Ottoman Empire began as early as the thirteenth century. In the fifteenth century, the Ottoman army conquered the Eastern Roman Empire. The treasures that originally belonged to the Eastern Roman Empire were also included in the collection. Middle. In the following years, the territory of the empire included the Balkan Peninsula, Syria, Palestine, and Egypt. Rare treasures from all over the place returned to the sea and flowed into the palace. "As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled me out and walked away. As he walked, he warned me: 'Before you reach Bulgaria safely, you must not reveal your identity, absolutely not, as soon as they know your identity , will kill you. This box is said to be handed down by Suleiman I. It is one of the important treasures of the Ottoman Dynasty. The time is too short. I have nothing to give you, so I have to give you this box.” I don’t know what the box is for, let alone what is in the box, I just feel that it is very heavy in my hand, I cried and hugged him: “Why don’t you run away? To Bulgaria?" When he heard my question, he suddenly became angry and said loudly, "I am a monarch, how can I run away?" go outside. "While walking, he said again: 'This box is called an unopenable box. It is said that no one has ever opened it since it was made, and no one knows what its function is, but it has been passed down from generation to generation. My treasure, I will give it to you, you have to keep it carefully.' I agreed, and I was flustered at the time, so I just glanced at the box casually. The box seemed to be made of gold, and there were no patterns on it, but it was very smooth. When I looked into the box, my tear-stained face was reflected on the smooth surface of the box, like a mirror. "I was sobbing, and asked: 'Is it because I will never see you again after we parted?' He didn't say a word, and looked very sad. I thought of his state when he was weak, and I was very sad: "When you need comfort, who will comfort you?" He suddenly became agitated, and said in a rough voice: "Stop talking nonsense, in the future, I will never have a day when I need comfort from others." I Enduring grief, since he solemnly handed over the box to me and told me that the box was called an 'unopenable box', I just thought in my heart that I must protect this box. I pulled off the scarf , Wrap the box and squeeze it tightly in your hand. "At this moment, I just felt his thick hands, the palms were covered with sweat, cold and wet. "He pulled me until he came to a door before stopping. There were two people in front of the door, all of them were his bodyguards. I've seen them before. Both of them were tall and tall, but at this moment, They were all in civilian clothes. He gave me a push, pushed me towards the two men, and called me by my nickname: 'Snap me and do what I say.' When I looked back at him, he was straight up, I have already turned around and walked back. I can still see his tall back even now when I close my eyes. Alas, he really deserves to be a brave monarch. "At that time, I wanted to catch up with him and lay on his broad back, but I just took a step, and the two guards stopped me, and one of them said with a beard: 'Please don't waste time, the city It’s already messed up.” I still struggled and refused to leave, but I couldn’t shake the two guards, so I had to leave the palace.” (Dante interjects here: "Grandmother, after you left the palace, have you never returned?") "Yes, child, I never went back. I found out later that shortly after I left, the army of rebels stormed into the palace..." (There was a sound of sobbing, and Dante asked: "Grandmother, this is not quite right. You left in such a hurry that you had no chance to pack your things. And the box that grandfather gave you, you said it was not very big... Yes Oh, why have I never seen this 'unopenable box'? But you have a lot of jewels. For many years our life has been maintained by selling jewels. How did you bring these jewels out of the palace? of?") (The old woman's voice interrupted Dante's words, first he let out a long sigh, and then spoke.) "Son, if I go on, you will naturally know, so don't ask questions now. "Leaving the palace, the city is indeed in chaos. All the shops are closed. There are many people and soldiers running around on the street. The two guards led me through the alley. It was getting dark soon. When we got down, we gradually left the urban area in the chaos, and went to a quite secluded place. We rested our feet, and the two guards took out a piece of cake and gave it to me. Walking around, the two of them walked away, not very far from me. "I didn't know what they wanted to do at the time. I just thought, I can't reach Bulgaria alone, so I must rely on their protection. Since they were selected by your grandfather in such a critical time, they must be loyal and good people. "I was thinking like this, and I kept looking at the two of them. They kept talking, as if they were arguing about something. The voice was so low that I couldn't hear a word. They talked for about ten minutes, and then they stretched out their hands and clapped. She clapped her hands, turned around, and looked at me. "At that time, the sky was very dark. There were explosions in the distance, and there were also several fires that could be seen from a long distance. Obviously, several places in the city were burning. The two of them happened to be standing with their backs to the fire. Although it was far away, it was flashing behind them, and it seemed very strange. "The two stood there, looked at me for a while, then walked towards me and came to me. "As soon as they came to me and opened their mouths, I knew something was wrong. "They didn't call me by the title in the palace, but just called: 'Madam, please stand up!' I was taken aback and stood up. As soon as one of them stretched out his hand, I was caught by him. I grabbed the box in my hand and snatched it. At that time, I was really anxious, and immediately shouted: "Give it back to me, this is given to me by the emperor." The bearded man grinned at me viciously: "It's because That’s how I robbed you.” He said as he threw away the silk scarf wrapped outside the box, and the other said: “The box is so small, it won’t be worth much.” The bearded man said: “What do you know, Zhenbao How big is it? It’s enough for you and me to use for a lifetime.” As he said, he wanted to open the box, but he couldn’t open it after calling and calling. "The other took the box from his hand, looked at it for a while, and then went to open the box, but neither of them could be opened. The two of them immediately looked at me fiercely, and shouted: 'Open it!' I was angry and anxious. : 'The box that cannot be opened, this box is called "the box that cannot be opened".' The two guards refused to believe it, but the one with the beard stepped over, grabbed my hair, and pulled my He lowered his head, pushed me, and wanted to hit my head against the tree. I struggled desperately, but I couldn't beat him. Pushed by him, I hit the tree hard, and I cried out in pain. Look, child, the scar on my forehead was formed by that impact." (Dante's angry voice: "Those two beasts are so abominable, they have no soul." After Dante said this, the old woman's voice was extremely surprised.) "Son, do you think these two people have no soul? Why do you say that?" (Dante's voice was still angry: "They took advantage of your crisis to bully you. Even if such people have souls, their souls have already been bought by the devil.") "Oh, boy, I was also struggling at that time, and at the same time I scolded them like this: 'Where are your souls? They must have been bought by the devil, and must have been sold to the devil.' The bearded man still took my head Hitting against the tree, the other grinned grinningly: "Our soul? Haha, it wasn't bought by the devil, it was bought by the jewels you carried." "I yelled: 'You misunderstood me, I left in such a hurry, I didn't bring any jewels with me.' The bearded man let go of me, and said fiercely: 'The devil will believe your words, open the box quickly.' I I cried: "No one can open it for hundreds of years, what can I do?" The bearded man kicked me, and I screamed again. Child, at this moment, something strange happened, A miracle happened..." (The old woman's voice, at this moment, was trembling with excitement.) "Son, the true god has descended, it must be the true god descended, I suddenly saw a halo, appeared in front of my eyes, and appeared within my reach." (Dante's hesitant voice: "Grandma, can you speak more clearly?") "Have I not understood enough? A halo, child, a shining halo, suddenly appeared in front of my eyes." (Dante grunted sadly: "Okay, I see.") "As soon as the halo appeared, the two guards were also stunned. They stood there staring at the halo. Their faces, under the light of the bluish-white shining light, were extremely pale and frightening. I didn't know it. In the middle, he knelt down, and the two guards were still standing. Suddenly, from the halo, two beams of light shot out, and those two beams shot towards the two guards." (Dante's voice again: "Grandma, I really don't understand what you're talking about.") "Son, you don't need to understand, just listen to me. Those two beams of light, making a clattering sound, shone with blue light. I have never seen such a strange sight. This situation, until Now, I can still remember it very clearly. Not only did I kneel, but I worshiped. "Just then, I heard the two guards shout together: 'I don't know, I don't know!' They shouted, as if someone was asking them. But apart from their voices, I heard No one else is asking them anything. "After they yelled a few times, they said again: 'I really don't know.' The other said: 'I just said that, I didn't see the jewels, bought me...I just said that, I...no I know.' The bearded man was also shouting: 'There's nothing to buy, I... no... I don't...' Son, you have to remember what they were saying at this time, I don't know why they called it that way, But I remember every word of what they called, and I will still say it to you now. "The two crackling and sparkling rays of light shot out of the halo suddenly disappeared after a flash, but the halo was still there. I was still kneeling on the ground, and saw the bodies of the two guards slowly descending. He fell, and after falling to the ground, he didn't move, and he seemed to be dead. "At this time, I was both surprised and happy." (The old woman's voice is very excited when she speaks.) "The halo turned slowly, and at this moment, I suddenly heard someone speaking to me. Really, it was a very soft voice, speaking to me, and I heard that voice asking: 'What did you just say? , The souls of the two of them were bought by the devil. Is there really a devil who buys souls?" At this time, I was just surprised, not afraid. I'm not sure whether the voice came from the halo, but The miracle happened after the halo, so I looked at the halo when I answered: 'I don't know.' (Dante makes a sound like a sob.) (When I heard this on the tape, I also made a sound like a sob. Dante's grandmother's answer "I don't know", this is a very common answer, almost everyone hears it every day. But this When the answer is linked to the question, it's astonishing.) (The two guards answered "I don't know". Qiao Sen also answered "I don't know" when he didn't know who he was talking to. Did they get the same questions as Dante's grandmother?) "After my answer, the voice suddenly increased a lot, and asked again: 'Why do you all answer that you don't know where your soul is going? Or do you have no soul at all?' Children, you know, since I was born, I am a devout Muslim. The voice actually said that I might not have a soul at all, which made me anxious and sad. I hurriedly replied: "No! I have, I must have!" The voice asked again: 'If so, where?' I almost burst into tears: 'I don't know, I... don't think anyone knows where their soul is.' My answer was normal, boy, I've been thinking about it all these years This question. Each of us has a soul, but who knows where his soul is? Son, I still don't know, do you know?" (Dante's deep voice: "Grandma, I don't know." The old woman sighed again.) "The sound fell silent, and I was still watching the halo, and saw that the halo was spinning rapidly, and the colors were changing. I didn't know what was going to happen, so I had to wait in fear. After a very short time In time, the voice rang again: "The man said just now that his soul was bought by the treasure. Is it true that your souls are all in the treasure?" Meaning, there is no answer." "I didn't answer. The voice continued: 'What would happen to you if you had many treasures?' At this time, I don't know why, I couldn't help it, tears welled up, and I cried: 'I have everything No more, and you said that there are many treasures.” The voice continued to ask: “If you have it, wouldn’t it be better?” I didn’t have time to think: “Of course.” My child, is my answer wrong? I think everyone would answer that." (Dante just let out a "hum" and no further reaction.) "After I answered, the voice stopped for a while. Whenever the voice stopped, the rotation of the halo was rapid. Then, the voice said again: 'You can get a lot of treasures. You can find them according to the map of treasures. Those hidden treasures.” I had no idea what the voice meant by saying that. At that time, I just thought, maybe the real god was pointing me to what treasures I could get, but where is the “treasure map” that the real god said where? "Just as I was thinking this way, another beam of light shot out from the halo, and shot at the hand of the bearded guard. As soon as the light shot over, the box in the guard's hand suddenly , jumped up and landed in front of me. "Child, you must not think that what I said next is nonsense, it is all the facts of my own experience, incredible facts. "After the box fell in front of me, the light continued to shoot at the box. Strange things happened, and the box opened. After the box was opened, it wasn't a box at all..." (Dante's eager voice: "Grandmother, if you want me to believe your words, you have to make your words reasonable. I don't understand what it means that a box is not a box at all after it is opened.") "My child, listen to my explanation. The box was originally a box, or, in other words, it looked like a square and flat box. But when it was opened, it turned out to be many thin pieces connected together. It grew into a long strip. No wonder the box couldn’t be opened at all, it turned out that it wasn’t a box, but many thin sheets stacked together, making it look like a box.” (For a while, there is no sound at all.) "Son, do you understand?" (Dante's voice: "I don't quite understand yet. Grandma, if this box is still there, show me it, and I will understand.") "I will, but not now, it doesn't matter if you don't quite understand, just keep listening. "The box became a long strip, and under the light of the halo, I could clearly see that there was a topographic map on the long strip of gold, with a dot in the center of the topographic map. "I didn't know what that meant at the time. The voice called out again: 'Follow this map, and you will find a large number of treasures. But don't take too much, treasures and your lives, there seems to be a very magical Each of you wants to have it, but when you have too much, it will cause trouble.' At that time, I didn't have the mood to think carefully about the meaning of those words, but I just worshiped again:' Thank you for the guidance of the true god. My pious belief has achieved results.” But the voice said: “We are not the true god in your mind, you made a mistake!” I was stunned, and when I looked up, I saw that since the appearance, The halo that had been hanging in front of me flashed for a moment, then suddenly disappeared. "It was dark in front of me. I stayed for a very short time, and then I rushed forward, grabbed the long piece of gold in my hand, and folded them again to form a box, and ignored the two pieces of gold. Whether the guard was dead or alive, he ran straight forward. "It wasn't until dawn the next day that I found a secluded place, spread out the stack of gold sheets, and carefully studied the topographic map on it. There was a lake on the topographic map. The shape of that lake, I I've seen it on a map, and I recognize what it is." (Dante's voice: "Grandma, what are you talking about? That box is... Grandpa said it belonged to Suleiman I. Even if there were topographic maps engraved on it, there were no accurate measurements at that time, so you couldn't see it at once. You can tell what kind of lake it is by its shape.") "My child, I won't argue with you. In short, I recognized what kind of lake it was at a glance. And that dot was right next to that lake. So, I followed the instructions of the true God and walked with that lake. Although That voice once denied that he was the real God, but I still firmly believed that it was the guidance of the real God. After going through hardships along the way, I came to the lake, wandered for ten days near the dot, and couldn't find anything hidden. The location of the treasure, until the evening of the tenth day, by the desolate lake, I saw a series of stones laid forward. "Those stones looked neat and stretched forward. When I saw them, I felt that they were just like the piece of gold spread out. "So, I walked along these stones and came to the end of the series of stones. In front of me was a rock cliff. There was a very narrow stone gap in the rock cliff. "What happened next was like a fairy tale. I squeezed through this crevice, and kept pushing, and the crevice became narrower and narrower. "When I was exhausted and I didn't even have the strength to go any further, I crawled forward, using my hands and feet, and when I couldn't move anymore, I fell on the ground to breathe, and suddenly there was a fresh wind, Blow into my face. "It was pitch black in front of me, and I couldn't see anything, but the cool wind told me that there must be a way out ahead. This lifted my spirits, and I climbed a few steps forward, feeling that the surrounding area was much more empty. I Still unable to see anything, I fell on the ground panting, struggled to stand up, took a step forward, and tripped over something. I fell to the ground, and my body was in great pain from many hard and sharp things. "I moaned and supported the ground with my hands. When my palms touched the ground, there were still many hard and sharp things on the ground. It was strange. I immediately felt that those sharp and hard things were not small stones. It must be gemstones, all kinds of gemstones. Panting, I grabbed two handfuls full. I was so stupid that I didn’t know how to put the things in my hand into the bag, and prayed to the true God, He turned around and walked out. Because he walked too fast, he bumped into the stone twice before he found the narrow gap and squeezed out. "When I squeezed out of the narrow mountain gap, the sky was already completely dark. But under the dim light of the stars and the moon, I saw that what I was holding in my hands were two balls of light intertwined with various colors There are all kinds of diamonds and precious stones, some of which are inlaid in a large string, some of which are not inlaid, and there are two full, I can't estimate their value..." (Old woman's gasp, and Dante's voice: "Grandmother, you said that when you fell to the ground, the ground was full of... treasures?") "Yes, I'm sure that there is a cave inside. I don't know how big the cave is, but the whole cave floor must be full of all kinds of treasures. I just grabbed a couple of them. My son, those two Let the treasure, the source of our life all the time, be given to us by the true God." (Dante's voice trembled slightly: "Grandmother, you didn't go in again?") "No, child, the true god has told me not to take too much. Although I have lived in the palace for several years, I have never seen so many treasures. Those treasures, wrapped up. "Turning around and looking at the crack in the mountain, I recalled the situation in the cave. At this moment, I suddenly felt that the whole earth was shaking and rumbled. At that time, I had a greedy desire to enter the cave again. , to get more treasures. I know that my greed must have angered the gods and wanted to bring disaster on me. I was so scared that I fell on the ground and kept calling the name of the true god, begging the true god to forgive me. "The shaking stopped immediately. When the shaking happened, it was like the end of the world. When the shaking stopped, I lay down for a long time before I raised my head. I was aiming at the crack in the mountain, so when I raised my head, I It can be seen that the narrow mountain crevice has been filled with many large and small stones. Those stones naturally fell down due to vibration. "I stayed for a while before I started to leave. The journey was difficult. Although I was full of jewels, in such a remote place, the value of jewels is not as good as a biscuit and a bowl of goat's milk. "Finally, I arrived in Bulgaria, was taken in by the Bulgarian royal family, and gave birth to your father. "You know all about the rest. That's what I'm going to tell you, my boy." (There was a pause, Dante's voice: "Grandma, what do you mean I need a companion?") "Well, you still don't understand? The cave is full of treasures. I believe that the cave is a collection of treasures collected by Suleiman I during the heyday of the Ottoman Dynasty. Son, you are the only heir of the Ottoman Dynasty. In the cave Your treasures should all be yours." (Dante's voice: "Yes, I still don't understand, what's the use of a reliable companion.") "Oh, my child, the slit into the cave is already full of rocks, big and small. You can't open it with your own strength. If you go alone, it will be too difficult and dangerous, and you may die. life, and if there are too many people to help you, once you enter the cave, people will go crazy because of the treasures in the cave. Therefore, you must have a helper, only one, not many. This person must be sincere, loyal, It is also necessary to be able to deal with all emergencies. Such a companion is hard to find.
