Chapter 944: Treasure
At the edge of the excavation position of the foundation of the defensive bunker, a lot of people had already gathered, but at this moment, seeing Su Xinyuan coming, these trained security guards who had gathered together in amazement all spontaneously made way of a passage, and Su Xinyuan walked to the front.
At this moment, Bai Wei was squatting next to a hole in the ground, shining a strong flashlight inside, and when he saw Su Xinyuan coming, he also stood up, shrugged his shoulders and smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect such a thing to happen, I have roughly explored this section of the tunnel before you came, and it extends very deep inside, the tunnel is obviously dug out by hand, and there are traces of axe chisels on the stone wall, with a height and diameter of more than one meter, which can be used by two or three people to bend down and walk in at the same time, just like a huge urban sewer, It's strange to be on such a desert island......"
"No one went in, did they?"
Looking at the stone path that stretched diagonally towards the hinterland of the mountain peak more than ten meters in front of him, the curiosity on Su Xinyuan's face became even stronger: "It seems that this passage is very ancient, who would go to such great lengths to dig a tunnel from here into the belly of the mountain?" Could it be that there is no hole in it? ”
"It's certain that there is no cave in it, after all, this is the rhythm of artificially excavated, such a big project, no one will be idle and have nothing to do, run to this desert island to chisel stones to play, so there must be something in the belly of the mountain, as long as you go in along the passage, you can see the ......"
Nodding, Bai Wei's face showed a touch of irrepressible excitement and excitement, and he even rubbed his hands, looking eager to try: "However, you haven't come yet, these guys have volunteered to go in and have a look, I didn't agree, or ...... Shall we go in now? It's an adventure, and maybe there's some pirate treasure inside! ”
"Treasure?"
Hearing his speculation, Su Xinyuan's face suddenly became strange, but he didn't refute it out loud.
Not to mention, Bai Wei's guess is really possible.
It's close to the open sea, and it may have been a pirate-infested area in the past, and it's nothing new that pirates hide their treasures in the mountains of desert islands, and isn't that the case with the legendary "Treasure Island"?
In addition, the waterway near Phoenix Island leads to the inland of China, and it is possible that an international merchant ship many years ago temporarily docked on this island for some reason, and then for other reasons, all the goods carried by the merchant ship were hidden in the mountains.
In a word, no matter what the situation, since it is speculation at the moment, then everything is possible, and everything can be figured out by following this passage carved through the rock and into the interior of the mountain.
As soon as he thought of this, Chen Hao immediately asked Bai Wei to prepare a strong flashlight and some portable breathing equipment, so as not to be troublesome if the air quality inside was not good after entering the mountain.
After everything was ready, Su Xinyuan took Bai Wei and the other four selected trained security guards to jump into the ground excavated during the construction of the foundation of the defensive bunker, and after bending slightly, he slowly touched the dark area in front of him along the stone passage in front of him.
The six people all held the strong light wolf eye in their hands, and each of them also carried a portable oxygen mask on their shoulders, and they were already well prepared, so although it was dark ahead, everyone's hearts were not nervous at all.
When viewed from the ground outside, the entrance of this passage was only a dozen meters away from the edge of the mountain wall, so after Su Xinyuan and his party of six people walked forward for more than twenty steps, they had already determined that they should have stepped into the area of the inner wall of the mountain peak.
Sure enough, the passage, which originally had to be bent down to move forward, suddenly opened up after about ten steps forward, and the passage suddenly widened, with a certain height and width. However, the feet are still dry, and there is no peculiar smell, which can rule out the danger of large poisonous insects inside.
The heads of a group of six people are pounding, and the further they go, the stronger the excitement of witnessing a miracle becomes.
After walking forward again for about four or five meters, the front of the line of sight suddenly became extremely wide, and there was a faint air flow from the cheeks, it seemed that there was a vent in front of it, no wonder the air quality in the cave was not very bad, but it was a little dull.
As soon as his heart moved, Su Xinyuan immediately spoke: "Turn off the flashlight, if there is a vent, maybe there will be a little faint light." ”
Hearing his words, the five white guards behind him all turned off the strong light wolf eye flashlight in their hands, and in an instant, everyone was plunged into darkness.
However, this darkness was obviously not absolute, and in the deep darkness ahead, in the distance above the head, there was a faint light.
There is no doubt that this should be the vent in the upper part of the mountain, but it is not straight, it is estimated that there is a small bend in the mountain wall, so the light is not very bright, otherwise, if it is like a patio, this light in the darkness ahead should be far more than that.
"Okay, there is indeed a vent, but it is folded, no wonder no one has ever found that there is such an intra-abdominal space inside the peak."
Nodding, Su Xinyuan turned on the strong wolf eye flashlight in his hand again, and the Bai Wei people behind him also quickly turned on the flashlight, scanning the inner abdominal space of the mountain peak in front of him indiscriminately.
What is displayed in front of everyone's eyes is a mountainside cave with a height of more than 20 meters and an area about the size of half a football field, which is obviously naturally formed, otherwise, it would take a lot of time and effort to dig such a large space, and besides, there is no need to dig such a high height.
Obviously, the inner belly space of this mountain peak was also inadvertently discovered, and there may have been a gap portal connected to the outside world at that time, which can be directly entered, and those guys who dig tunnels who do not know the age, after moving the items they need to hide into the belly of the mountain, directly sealed the original gap portal, and Jier dug an underground passage to sneak out from here, which is simply painstaking.
As for the traces of the sealed gap, the reason why it was also not discovered by Bai Wei was obviously because it was too old, and some artificial traces had long been covered up by the years.
However, judging from the distance just now, the inner wall of the mountain peak on the side of several people is at most seven or eight meters thick from the outer wall of the mountain peak, and there are professional excavation machinery, which only takes a day to dig up.
And this matter is exactly what Su Xinyuan is thinking about at the moment.
Because in the huge mountain belly space in front of you, there are obviously a lot of things stored, some are packed in boxes, and some are simply placed directly in the belly of the mountain, such as some ancient Buddha statues and bronzes and other things, just from these things that have been exposed, it can be inferred that these items hidden in the belly of the mountain are mostly cultural relics and treasures stolen from the interior of China by a foreign country many years ago, for some reason, the ship actually stopped temporarily in the middle of the way after leaving China, hiding everything in the heart of the mountain of this deserted island.
And now, so many years have passed, and those guys have not come to transport these treasures away, either because they are afraid of the current power of the Chinese authorities and do not dare to act easily, or the people who know about this treasure have already died.
All in all, all the items in the belly of this mountain peak in front of him have become ownerless, since Phoenix Island has been bought by Su Xinyuan, then everything on the island, including these treasures with mysterious origins, naturally belongs to Su Xinyuan.
However, there are obviously a lot of things in front of me, a cursory glance, at least a dozen or twenty ocean-going cargo containers can be filled, to transport so many things outside, just from the passage where everyone came in before, the guys who moved them in the first place, must have been transported in from a certain gap in the inner space of this mountain peak and the outside world, and now to transport things out again, the only way is to dig up the mountain wall again.
"Okay, let's go back, immediately arrange construction, dig up the mountain wall, anyway, it's only seven or eight meters thick, one day should be enough, right?"
After making a decision in his heart, Su Xinyuan turned his head to look at Bai Wei behind him, and said what he meant: "When you are building, you must pay attention to it, don't move too much, don't rush in, so as not to cause a landslide, and then all the good things in the belly of this mountain will have to be completely buried!" ”
"Hehe, you just wait and see, it should be able to dig through before this evening, and then the night time is used to clean up the passage and reinforce the passage, if nothing else, you can take Mr. Mu and them here early tomorrow morning to pick up the baby, I see that there is a box over there that is open, the wolf's eye flashlight in our hands shines, and all kinds of red and blue light are simply dazzling......"
Raising his hand and patting his chest, Bai Wei grinned, and after a pause, he continued: "There is no doubt that the box must be full of jewelry and jewelry, or let's move out and send it to Mr. Mu and them now, right?" Anyway, the box is not big, just one meter square, and a few of us can move ......"
Hearing his suggestion, Su Xinyuan groaned slightly, and quickly nodded and agreed, saying that such a large box of jewelry was shipped back to the four girls to choose at will, and they all said that they would take a short hand, for the sake of this box of jewelry, tonight or tomorrow, when they go to the lake to swim again, if they don't call the master together, we will all be embarrassed for them......
