Chapter 13 Get what you want
In the recorded scene, there is a stone cave located at the lowest point of the lower part of the mountain wall, less than two meters high from the inside, and the entrance of the cave is about one meter wide and half a meter high.
When the ancient Shatuo people practiced archery here, the arrows penetrated the stone wall to find this place, and later artificially enlarged the hole and found that it was a naturally formed stone cave, which bent down and went straight into the ground nearly 10 meters deep.
After the Gushatuo people repaired the stone cave, they expanded the space at the bottom of it, and used this place as a treasure house, and later when they left, in order to prevent small animals from entering, they sealed the entrance of the cave with wooden planks and mud, and transplanted a small tree outside the cave to cover the entrance of the cave.
What Ji Kai is looking for now is this small tree, but after nearly a thousand years, it is estimated that the small tree back then should be very huge if it is alive now.
Walking around the valley, still no huge trees were found.
"No! How could it not be? There could be no strong winds blowing down trees here, and there would be no lightning strikes, and the possibility of fire was small, so why didn't we find any big trees? The largest tree I saw just now was only one person hugging each other, and it couldn't have grown so big for a thousand years!"
Just as Ji Kai was struggling to think about why he couldn't see the huge tree, the sound of a branch breaking not far away interrupted his train of thought. When I ran over to take a look, it turned out that the gravel from the top of the mountain had fallen and hit a tree, causing the branch to break.
Ji Kai had a flash of inspiration, yes! There is still this possibility! Recalling the picture near the mountain wall he had just seen, a huge gravel more than one meter high appeared in his mind.
Ji Kai hurriedly ran to the place where the boulder was found just now, the lower part of the boulder seemed to be pressed with some rotten wood, and then looked carefully on the mountain wall, and sure enough, he found a place with a different color from the mountain wall.
Ji Kai guessed that he might not know when, the boulder fell from the top of the mountain, just smashed on the tree, and then because there was no tree to cover it, the wind and rain fell, and the original smeared soil looked like it was falling off, and the wooden planks began to decay.
Putting down the backpack, climbing up the boulder, and pressing the mountain wall with your hand, the dirt and rotten wood were pierced, revealing a hollow.
Finally found the cave, Ji Kai hurriedly cleared the rest of the cover, and did not enter it immediately. After all, after so many years, the air and bacteria inside may bring danger, according to the tomb robbery novels I have read, you have to let the air inside first, and let the fresh air replace the gas inside before you can go in again.
Not in a hurry, Ji Kai jumped off the boulder, found a dry thick branch, and made it into a one-meter-long wooden stick. Take out a little gauze, tie it to one end of a stick, and drizzle it with wine, no gasoline and alcohol, so make do with it.
After making a torch, I climbed the boulder again, thinking that after all this time, it should be no problem inside. Ji Kai lit the torch, climbed into the cave, and saw that the torch burned normally, proving that there was still enough oxygen in the air inside.
Following the spiraling down cave, Ji Kai cautiously went down until he saw a gate made of wooden fences, and then he reached the bottom of the cave.
The wooden fence had long since decayed, and it shattered to the ground at the slightest touch. Crossing the rotten wood, I turned a right angle to the left, and several wooden boxes were placed directly in an open space of about 30 square meters.
Ji Kai saw several oil lamps placed on the stone wall in the cave, and after lighting them one by one with torches, the cave was suddenly bright.
I opened the wooden box with anticipation, and when I touched it, it shattered. The weapons contained in it have long been rusted and cannot be used anymore. After opening several wooden boxes in a row, I found that they were all ancient weapons, none of which were intact, they were all rusted to death, and they had no value.
Could it be that the Gushatuo people only left weapons in the first place? Didn't they say that there were still treasures?
Ji Kai hurriedly continued to open the wooden box, until the innermost wooden box was left and nothing of value was found, it was all useless weapons. Somewhat disappointed, he opened the last wooden box, and there were no more weapons inside.
Inside the wooden box was a pile of pearls, but unfortunately it had long been yellowed and full of cracks. Ji Kai scavenged the pearls and finally found valuables, which was a bit of a harvest.
There were also a few silver utensils, a gold Buddha statue, and a few fist-sized gems found under the pearl, as well as some crystal-like things of various colors, which seemed to have been originally packed in a leather bag, but unfortunately the leather bag had long since decayed and broken, and Ji Kai didn't realize what it was.
Anyway, I didn't know each other, Ji Kai put all these things into his backpack one by one. After loading, after seeing that there was really nothing else, he picked up a mace, which was quite heavy, estimated to be about 30 catties.
Swinging it a few times in the air, it was quite strenuous, too lazy to ask for this thing, so I threw it on the ground and made a muffled sound.
Ji Kai heard that the sound seemed to be a little different, picked up the mace, and continued to tap around, and found that the sound of the ground in just one or two squares was different from other places.
Isn't it? Is there room down there?
Ji Kai took out a multi-functional folding shovel and began to dig, the ground here has less gravel and is easier to dig. When digging nearly a meter deep, the shovel touched a bluestone slab, on which certain patterns were still depicted, but it was very faint and not very recognizable. 、
Seeing the pattern on this stone slab, Ji Kai became very excited. I can't imagine that "another village is bright and bright", when the ancient Shatuo people dug the cave, it happened to be on the top of the underground secret space of the ancient tribe.
There is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get them.
Quickly clear out the soil and stone layer around the slate, revealing the intact slate. Tilt the slab upwards until a hole is revealed.
Ji Kai laughed, waited for a while, first stretched the torch inside, and then took out the torch, but the torch was not extinguished.
Ji Kai couldn't wait to jump down with a torch and came to an empty underground space again. The contents were almost all turned to ashes, leaving only a dry skeleton that was about to turn to ashes, and a stone jar next to it.
Ji Kai estimated that the stone jar should contain a strong body pill, and when he took it out with his hands, the pill that originally had many particles was now condensed into a lump, and he didn't know if it was still useful.
Ji Kai thought about it again and again, the bold starved to death the cowardly, how could there be a harvest without taking some risks. Gritted his teeth and swallowed the pellet-sized pill directly.
It didn't take long for Ji Kai to suddenly faint and fall to the ground.
A crazy figure in his mind roared "Give me back the pill", and rushed straight to Ji Kai.
Ji Kai was taken aback, after being attacked by the figure, Ji Kai felt abnormal pain, and he also became angry. You dare to hurt me? I'll fight with you.
No matter how the figure attacked, Ji Kai kept grabbing the figure and biting wildly, the more painful Ji Kai bited, the harder he bitten, and he went directly to his stomach to eat.
I don't know how long it took, after Ji Kai ate all the figures into his stomach, he was fainted by a wave of energy.
