Chapter 268: A Different Way
The first batch of artworks shipped back to China were all oil paintings, with more than 300 pieces, covering the works of the most famous modern and modern painters in European countries, and their value is incalculable. Moreover, most of these paintings have been sealed for more than 70 years, so they are even more precious.
There are more than 300 large and small oil paintings, each of which is wrapped on the outside, and it took two container trucks to accommodate them. In order to prevent accidents, Brother Hato hired Leonard's mercenary group again to take care of the escort work on the journey from the bank to the airport.
Although the bank can also provide security, but the fat man is not at ease, any one of these oil paintings will make people want to rob it, let alone put it together.
The Leonard mercenary group also moved this time, motorcycles, off-road vehicles, and bulletproof vehicles all went into battle, and fifty or sixty vehicles, large and small, surrounded the two container trucks in front of and back. Moreover, the federal side has also sent a large number of military and police to assist along the way, and in terms of security, it has put a lot of effort into security.
Sitting in Leonard's car, the fat man stared at the dense convoy in front of him, and his heart was always hanging.
"Gao, don't worry, the airport is 20 kilometers out of the city, and then in a dozen hours, you can set foot on the land of the motherland-" Leonard also saw the fat man's nervousness, and kept comforting this friend from the East. That's right, after experiencing the crisis of the Treasure Cave, Leonard already regarded Fat Man Gao as one of his best friends.
The fat man smacked his lips, his lips were a little dry, and then, a small paw reached out in front of his eyes, pinching a piece of gum. Leonard laughed when he saw this: "High, chewing gum relieves tension." Even monkeys know this! ”
"If only two container trucks were full of peaches. You see if the monkey is nervous or not! The fat man said so. Still, he took the gum and tilted his head to put it in his mouth.
But his movements froze for a few seconds, and then he shouted: "It's coming, it's an air raid!" ”
Air raid? Leonard poked his head out of the window and looked up at the sky, where he could vaguely see a few small black dots flying towards him from the mountains, but because of the distance. I can't hear the roar of the motor yet.
"Prepare for battle—" Leonard gave the order over the on-board radio.
"Are you going to send all your brothers to death?" The fat man is also in a hurry, the mercenary group has no ability to strike at air targets, and it is forced to be strafed by helicopters, and the biggest possibility is that the whole army will be wiped out.
But as a loyal mercenary, how could Leonard run away without a fight, not to mention, he now regarded Fat Gao as a friend, and he couldn't give it up.
"Listen to me, tell the escort team to distance themselves from the transport vehicle in the middle. If the other party is indeed running for the baby, choose to give up! "The fat man saw the helicopter getting closer and closer. He directly gave the order in place of Leonard.
But—Leonard was still trying to argue, but a thought suddenly flashed through his mind: "Gao, could it be that the box contains—"
The fat man said twice: "We have an ancient saying in China, called Ming Xiu Plank Road, Dark Chen Cang." Friend, as a commander, I suggest that you study more of our ancient Chinese art of war. ”
As he spoke, the two container trucks had stopped on the side of the road, and the drivers of the cars also rushed down and ran into the off-road vehicles that received them; Several helicopters in the sky also flew overhead, and after a symbolic strafing for a while, the container was lifted by two transport planes, and then stretched vigorously into the rolling mountains, and the process took less than five minutes.
Soon, the news of the looting of Nazi treasures spread throughout Europe, some people sighed, some people gloated, and even a newspaper openly ridiculed: Mr. Fat Mr. Gao has now jumped into the Rhine -
The reporter who wrote this article was really right, the fat man did go to the Rhine, but instead of jumping into the river, he sat on a freighter, and he had already met Diao Lao Er and others who secretly escorted treasures.
Brother Badou will not choose air transportation, although it is fast, but it is not possible to ensure which red-eyed country will guide you down with a missile, this kind of thing, it is not that it has never happened before.
So on the surface, he escorted the treasure to the airport, but in fact, the container truck with the real treasure was already on the way to the port city of Basel. Then board a freighter in the Port of Basel, enter the sea from the Rhine and return home by sea. Although this is a little slower, in the eyes of the fat man, it is safer, and it is better than having no room for maneuver in the sky.
The journey was relatively smooth, from the Mediterranean Sea to the Suez Canal into the Indian Ocean, then through the Strait of Malacca, and finally into the South China Sea. The only thing that ran into a little trouble was the monkey Xiaoshuai, who was actually seasick and vomited a lot for the first few days. Later, I got used to it by spitting and spitting, and finally overcame the problem of seasickness, and I was able to climb the flagpole and look out at the sea.
"Back then, the Monkey King traveled across the ocean alone, seeking immortals and seeking the Tao, you, you are far worse than your ancestors." Seeing that he was about to get home, the fat man was in a good mood, so he was also in the mood to make fun of the monkey Xiaoshuai.
However, the monkey master didn't care about him at all, built a pergola with his small paws, climbed on the flagpole and looked around, and had a great posture to look at the world. The ship's first mate was also chatting on the deck, nodding vigorously and approvingly: "If this was placed hundreds of years ago, it must be the best lookout!" ”
Unexpectedly, the little monkey was not boasted, a gust of sea breeze blew, the flagpole swayed non-stop, and the monkey Xiaoshuai still had a little seasickness sequelae, his hands and feet were weak, and he flew directly into the air. Frightened, the fat man hurriedly opened his arms and kept moving under his feet, ready to catch it.
At the moment when Monkey Xiaoshuai was blown down, the two little paws scratched and pulled, and as a result, the flag on the flagpole was torn off, which somewhat alleviated some of the falling momentum, but it was also blown by the wind, and it floated directly out of the range of the freighter's deck and fell into the sea. The little monkey can't swim, and the waves are so big that one wave disappears.
The fat man was also anxious when he saw it, and he didn't care about waiting for the boat to stand up, so he directly climbed over the fence and jumped directly into the sea. The people on the deck were terrified: they were dozens of meters high, and they would have to faint if they didn't fall to their death. And the consequences of falling out in the sea seem to be no different from falling to death.
So there was a rush of soldiers, and after driving for several miles, the freighter slowly stopped, put down the lifeboat, and began to rescue. This process has been delayed for some time, which also worries rescuers.
The lifeboat rushed to the scene of the incident, but unexpectedly found the fat man floating on the sea, and there was a little monkey squatting on his head, and neither of them had anything to do. The crew couldn't help but be secretly surprised, and pulled the fat man onto the lifeboat, which was lucky, and then spit out a mouthful of seawater, and said in his mouth: "The sea water is really salty!" ”
Monkey Xiaoshuai also opened his mouth and retched a few times, slightly sluggish. It really fell a lot just now, and poured a few mouthfuls of seawater, but fortunately, the fat man had excellent eyesight and kept staring at it, otherwise, he would have been swept away by the waves.
However, this trip was not without gains, in the process of rescue, the fat man unexpectedly found that the bottom of the sea was shining with a dazzling purple light, and in the mud and sand burial, there was an ancient shipwreck.
Although the sea here is nearly 100 meters deep, the fat man's strength has jumped to a new level after discovering the Nazi treasure, otherwise he would not have been able to climb the ice crevasse with his bare hands. And the biggest improvement is the visual aspect, even if there is a sea barrier, his vision can still penetrate a hundred meters, until he sees the shipwreck lying quietly on the bottom of the sea, and the stack of porcelain on the ship, half-hidden in the sand.
Stupid, I'm such a big fool - on the lifeboat, the fat man slapped his head a few times, if you talk about where the treasure is the most, there is no doubt that it must be the vast ocean.
Since the rise of the seafaring trade, for thousands of years, I don't know how many shipwrecks have been buried at the bottom of the sea, and the wealth contained in them is simply immeasurable. And the fat man now has this kind of super vision, it is simply the best detector, sitting on the treasure mountain without knowing it, isn't it stupid?
The fat man's actions made the crew on the lifeboat a little puzzled: Could it be that the brain was in the water?
It turned out that the fat gentleman was indeed mentally abnormal, and after sending the little monkey to the freighter, he shouted that he wanted to take a bath, saying that he had just soaked in the sea for a while and felt quite comfortable.
If it were another freighter, it would definitely not meet his unreasonable demand, but this ship was hired by the fat man, and the employer's request was an order, and the ship stopped anyway, just to rest.
"What the hell are you doing with Yato?" Diao Lao Er knew the details of the fat man, so he asked in a low voice.
"Second uncle, there's something good down there—" The fat man said twice, and then got into the lifeboat alone—he didn't want to dive from the deck anymore, and now he was still in hot pain.
Diao Lao Er was not at ease, and also followed the lifeboat, after driving out for a few miles, the fat man jumped into the sea with a grunt, and practiced dog planing with a crackle, and the waves planed by the two feet were not small, but the height was not far away, and the speed of swimming was too slow. Seeing Diao Lao Er, he shook his head at the top: This water nature, at a glance, was practiced in the small river ditch.
After getting used to it for a while, the fat man took a deep breath, then plunged into the water, then held his breath, and then turned to the purple qi in his body to provide energy, if he didn't have this ability, he would have become fertilizer in the gas chamber of the small mountain village.
Because of this, he dared to go into the sea to try. As for whether he can resist the pressure of the deep sea, it depends on whether his body is strong enough, this point, the fat man has never tried, and he has no bottom in his heart.
However, when he easily reached the bottom of the sea, he did not feel any discomfort in his body, and even he did not expect it: at least a hundred meters-
What the fat man doesn't know is that the current record of human freehand diving is 100 meters and a point, because as the depth increases, the more the lungs are compressed. But for fat people, this problem does not exist, so it seems to be at ease.
Fluttering and leisurely stepping on the fine sand at the bottom of the sea and walking a few steps, Brother Badou didn't mention how beautiful it was: Brother will also walk sideways in the sea in the future - if I walk sideways, I will become a sea crab in the future!
When he was full of ambition, he only felt a pain under his feet, and then a strong force came, dragging him unsteadily. Brother Badou looked down, and was suddenly frightened, only to see a strange-looking and huge mussel shell, clamping his left leg, and the entire left foot had been submerged in the wavy mussel shell - (to be continued......)
