Li Rui snorted, put the silver medal in his pocket, and handed the roster to Gao Zixuan to take it on his behalf, he and Xu Da carried a package full of gold, silver and jewelry, and walked towards the entrance of the cave, and when they returned to the ground, the sky was still bright, but the sun had set, and it was radiating its afterglow in the west.

The three of them stepped on the ground, their heads tilted up to the blue sky, and they breathed in the dry and fresh mountain breeze outside, and they all couldn't believe that the previous underground experience was real.

Xu Da pointed to the entrance of the cave and said: "The entrance of the steps is like a naturally formed open-air stone pit, you see that the walls of the pit are uneven, and the hole inside should be formed by the treasure collector digging deep on the basis of this open-air stone pit." In order to cover the entrance, the treasure collector deliberately pressed these huge stone slabs, and sealed them with a thick layer of earth and stone to cover them. If you don't know that there is a hole in the ground below, you can't imagine that there is such a big hole under this temple. Moreover, since this stone slab can be pressed up, it can also be raised, so this hole does not seem to be permanently sealed, but can be entered and exited at any time, similar to a dark room for organizing secret activities. ”

Li Rui said: "There are knives and guns, treasures, rosters, and they are so secretive, how does it sound like a non-governmental organization that opposed the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty during the Qing Dynasty? Hehe, it's a bit like the Heaven and Earth Society in "The Legend of the Deer and Ding". ”

Xu Da smiled: "That's pretty much what it means, it should be a civil uprising organization." Didn't you get a silver medal and a roster, but take the time to show your friend from the archaeology team and get the answer. ”

Li Rui nodded, looked at the entrance of the cave, thought for a while, and said to Xu Da: "This cave may have archaeological value, I think it's better to seal it temporarily, don't let outsiders in and destroy the environment inside." If my friend from the archaeological team sees the silver medal and the roster and wants to get to the bottom of it, he can come and investigate the field. Xu Da said: "Okay, then let's seal it up and restore it to its original state." ”

The two put down the package in their hands, covered the stone slab that had been lifted, piled the soil and stones on the edge of the pit back as they were, stepped on it with their feet, and then grabbed the ash and weeds in the four corners and threw them on it, basically the same as before. If an outsider comes here, you won't be able to see the changes in the soil layer without looking closely.

As for the section of the north wall that was mostly demolished, the two also tried their best to restore it, and under the condition of ensuring that the fox could enter and exit the cave freely, they piled up the previous green bricks back, although they could not restore it as before, but they also restored most of it.

Gao Zixuan smiled and said to Li Rui: "Don't let the old man who caught the fox just now see it, otherwise he will definitely scold you, and he will be able to destroy the entrance to the fox's den by digging the wall for you." ”

Xu Da smiled when he heard this: "I think I can thank that old man, if he hadn't suddenly appeared, I'm afraid we would never have found the entrance to the treasure." ”

Li Rui nodded and said, "If I have the opportunity, I will go to the village to inquire and see where his family lives, and then throw a gold ingot into their courtyard to express my gratitude." Gao Zixuan asked puzzledly: "Why are you still throwing it into the courtyard? Isn't it good for you to thank him directly in person?" Li Rui asked rhetorically: "Don't you know the truth of Dou Mien's promotion of rice hatred? If I suddenly give him a gold ingot, he will definitely wonder, is it because I have gained greater benefits from him, but he will have a covetous heart, I don't want to do much, so I still secretly thank him, it is such a heart, and he does not have to appreciate it." ”

After this conversation, the three of them took one last look at the entrance to the cave and carried the package down the mountain. The reason why it is used to carry it is because the gold and silver in the package are too heavy, and you can only carry it for a while by hand, and if you want to walk a long way, you must carry it.

This also invisibly announced: the treasure hunt launched during the May Day holiday was successfully completed and returned.

It was easy to go down the mountain and return to the car, and put the two packages into the trunk, Li Rui and Xu Da were already tired and sweating, no way, these two packages were too heavy, to put it mildly, each had to have forty or fifty pounds. Of course, the heaviest in it were the one hundred and ten silver ingots, but they were also the least valuable.

After a short rest, the three of them returned to the car, driven by Li Rui, and returned along the same road to the city.

On the way, Gao Zixuan played with the silver ingot in her hand - after Li Rui used it, she snatched it from his hand again, and suddenly said: "I won't divide these treasures, but I will keep one of each as a souvenir." Li Rui, you have no opinion, right?"

Xu Da followed and said, "I don't divide it either, hehe." ”

Li Rui was taken aback, Zixuan didn't want it, she had already said it, and now there is nothing surprising to hear it, why don't Xu Da, a good brother, want it? Isn't it a good brother? If it's a good brother, don't say no. Xu Da smiled and said: "I'm not polite to you, I'm not hypocritical, I really don't want it, what do you say I want them for? Sell money? I don't lack money, I have several accounts in the Swiss bank, and any one of them can take out millions of dollars; when the heirloom is left to my children and grandchildren? I don't even have a daughter-in-law, do you want to do it in the long run? So it's useless at all, you still keep it, you have more places to use the money." ”

Li Rui was taken aback again, and said in a lost voice: "Why do you have so much money in your Swiss bank?" uh...... Is it the activity fund that the state has given you?"

Gao Zixuan also frowned and said: "Xu Da, what are you doing? I wanted to ask you when I came, how dare you casually say something that killed Hu Yibo? And Hu Yibo went to my house to commit a crime in the morning, why did Li Rui call you for help? You seem to be very powerful, and you have so much money, who are you?"

Xu Da smiled: "Who am I, I can't tell you in person, otherwise it will be a violation of discipline, so let my brother tell you in private." After speaking, he answered Li Rui's question: "It's not the activity funds, it's the black gold I have gained when I have carried out tasks over the years, most of which have been handed over to the state, and a small part of it has been kept for my own use. So I'm not short of money to spend, and you don't have to think about me. ”

Li Rui saw that he had said everything, so he didn't pretend anymore, and said, "Okay, you don't want it, and Zixuan doesn't want it, then I'll swallow it alone." However, I can't just care about making a fortune for myself, since these treasures are taken out of my hometown village, then I will take out a part of it to give back to my hometown, donate a part to the village primary school and town middle school, and then sponsor a few children in need, so as to make as much contribution as possible to my hometown. ”

Gao Zixuan pouted and said, "Yo, put it on, this will start pretending to be a philanthropist." But you don't want to think about how much money you have in total? If you don't have hundreds of millions, you still want to do charity? Listen to me, you can keep this money and use it yourself, don't do anything you can't do. ”

Li Rui knew that she was doing it for her own good, and wanted to keep more money in her hand, and said with a smile: "I just think that I am embarrassed to get so much treasure for nothing, God is so kind to us, we also have to know how to be grateful, and help those who need help more, which can be regarded as accumulating some yin virtue." ”

Gao Zixuan saw that she couldn't persuade him, and said, "Whatever you want, you think I love you." But you can't spend this treasure directly as money, you have to cash it out, right? In this way, I will take it with me when I go back to the provincial capital tomorrow morning, and I will cash it all out to you through my friend's channels in the provincial capital, and I will give you a check when we meet next time, and this matter will be settled. ”

Li Ruixi said: "That's good, but before that, you and Qingman should first pick among the piles of jewelry to see if there are any fine products, and if there are any, you can stay and wear them yourself." Gao Zixuan said: "I have seen it earlier, there are no good things, and many of them are bent and broken." Besides, it's a thing that's been hundreds of years old, and it's dark in the hole, how bad it is, who has nothing to wear it to play, I want to wear jewelry and buy a new ...... directly."

chatting all the way, I didn't realize that time was flying, and I soon returned home. Li Rui and Xu Da took the two packages to the bedroom and opened them to open Lu Qingman's eyes.

It just so happened that the old man Li Jianmin was not at home, so he didn't have to worry about being known about it. Li Rui was actually not afraid of being known by him, but he was afraid that he would know that these treasures had something to do with the clay pot dug up in the old mansion, and it would be boring for him to think about it or even think too much about it. The nanny Xiaohong is not there, probably going out to buy vegetables.

Lu Qingman saw that the three of them had really recovered the treasures, and it was such a large number of treasures, including gold bars, gold ingots, silver ingots and jewelry, he was also surprised and delighted, and he was so happy in his heart that he couldn't close his mouth.

Gao Zixuan didn't wait for her to ask, and told the treasure hunting process one by one.

After hearing this, Lu Qingman also said to Li Rui: "It seems that if there is no old man, you will not be able to find these treasures anyway, so ah, you have to thank him well." ”

Li Rui picked up a gold ingot casually and said: "See, this ingot is ten taels, and one catty of ancient weights and measures is sixteen taels, so this ingot is almost 0.6 catties, but it is not pure gold, there are other impurities in it, we will count it as half a catty, two hundred and fifty grams! Now the gold price is three hundred and five thousand grams, then this ingot is worth eighty thousand ......."

Gao Zixuan interjected: "This gold ingot is in good condition, and it is a thing of the Ming Dynasty, and it must have a certain historical value attached to it, I think it is no problem to get it to the provincial auction and auction it for 150,000 yuan." Li Rui smacked his tongue slightly, swallowed his saliva, and said with surprise and joy: "How can you shoot so much?"
