Chapter 320: The Cave of the Secret Chamber
Su Ziheng was ruthless, and included all the items he saw in the base space, anyway, the base space area is large, not to mention the warehouse items of four acres of land, even if it is expanded by a hundred times, his base space can be put down.
"Brush"
Su Ziheng didn't look at what kind of items were placed on the ground, and where the light of the base shrouded, piles of things disappeared.
Soon the warehouse became empty, there were no obstacles, Su Ziheng and Cai'er's eyes suddenly widened, and the scope of the flashlight became clear at a glance.
"It stands to reason that if there was a mechanism, it should have been touched when I collected the items just now, but there is no movement in the warehouse now. One is to show that there is really no secret room inside, but this shouldn't be, just those things just now, where is it worth building such a complex mechanism outside? The second is to indicate that the mechanism is either on the wall or on the floor. ”
Su Ziheng muttered to himself, glanced at the wall with a flashlight, and suddenly he looked at him and said in surprise: "Hey, Cai'er, there is an oil lamp on the wall in front, let's go and light it, it's more convenient to see it this way." ”
Cai'er stepped forward in response, and in a few leaps, she came to the oil lamp, "Master, this oil lamp is empty, and there is no oil in it." ”
"No, there is no oil added to the oil lamp, is it put here to see?" As soon as the words fell, Su Ziheng's mind suddenly flashed with inspiration, and he seemed to have grasped something, "Decorations?" It must be where the mechanism is, right? ”
Thinking of this possibility, Su Ziheng ran forward quickly, and at this time Cai'er's hand had already been shaken, and he wanted to take off the oil lamp, but found that it was not moving, "Master, this oil lamp seems to be welded to death, and it can't be moved." ”
Su Ziheng remembered that he had seen records about the mechanism in books and TV before, and laughed: "Then it won't be wrong, this must be where the organ is, you try to turn it and see if it can be turned?" ”
Cai'er tried to turn the oil lamp to the right, and found that it could really turn, and said happily: "Master, it can really be turned." ”
As Cai'er turned the bronze oil lamp with both hands, they both heard a "crunch" sound in their ears.
Su Ziheng looked in the direction where the voice came from, and saw that in the right corner of the warehouse, a gap had opened, revealing a secret passage.
Seeing this scene, Su Ziheng didn't know what was going on, and said happily: "Let's go, let's go down and have a look." ”
Coming to the edge of the secret passage, Su Ziheng just wanted to step in, but was suddenly stopped by Cai'er, "Master, slow down, let the slave and maid explore the way in front, and you follow me." ”
Su Ziheng didn't refute much, and followed Cai'er down the secret passage. When he entered, he found that it was not a secret room as he had imagined, but a curved tunnel.
"Strange, how is it authentic? Don't know where it leads? The more Su Ziheng walked, the more cold he felt, and after about a cup of tea, he finally walked to the end of the tunnel, where there was a closed stone door.
Su Ziheng put his hands on the stone door, only to feel that his palms were cold, and a cold air penetrated through the cracks in the stone door.
"Cai'er, help me, push the stone door open and see what's behind?" Su Ziheng greeted Cai'er, and the two of them worked together to push the stone door open a gap and squeeze in.
"Hiss"
As soon as he entered, Su Ziheng gasped, and his eyes were dazzled all of a sudden.
"These, these are gold and silver jewelry. I said how could there be so much stuff in the upper warehouse, it turns out that the really good things are in it. ”
Behind the stone gate is a cave filled with all kinds of rare treasures. Stacks of neat gold and silver blocks reflected dazzling light under the illumination of the flashlight.
In addition, there are more than a dozen huge wooden boxes, Su Ziheng opened them at random and took a look, there were boxes full of pearls, all round and smooth, comparable to the size of pigeon eggs, Su Ziheng's eyes were almost straight, "This, this is the top Dongzhu?" You must know that this is hard to find in the outside market, but I didn't expect that there was a whole box here, and I made a fortune now. ”
If all of this box of Dongzhu is sold, the pair can be exchanged for millions of taels of silver, and then there is no fear that Donghai County will have no money to build.
Not to mention anything else, just this pile of gold bricks and silver nuggets and this box of Dongzhu are enough to build the city wall of Donghai County.
What's more, there are still several wooden boxes that have not yet been opened, Su Ziheng doesn't believe that the things placed with Dongzhu will be bad?
When he opened the boxes, sure enough, they were full of gems of all colors, red, blue, purple, green, and yellow. Even Su Ziheng saw a multicolored gem, which simply amazed him.
At that moment, Su Ziheng did not hesitate, activated the base and received everything into the space.
Suddenly, his gaze froze, and he saw a dozen corpses in a corner. Su Ziheng hurriedly took two steps forward, looked carefully, and found that they were all killed by someone with a sword to seal their throats inside, and they looked dressed like hard laborers.
Needless to say, Su Ziheng had already guessed that this must have been the coolie who dug the secret passage in the first place, and after digging the secret passage and the cave, he was killed and killed in the cave to prevent the secret from being leaked.
"What a bunch of brutes to be killed." Su Ziheng cursed in a low voice, but he also knew in his heart that this kind of thing was too common for wealthy nobles.
It's just that Su Ziheng couldn't understand why they were storing their treasures in such a cave. In fact, isn't it enough to dig a secret room under the warehouse? Why bother to run so far in one fell swoop, and those who are still frozen will die.
"Master, there is a secret door here, which seems to lead to the outside, shall we go and take a look?" Cai'er's voice came from the other end.
"Okay, wait for me, I'll be there soon." Su Ziheng answered, put aside the matter of the corpse, and walked towards Cai'er.
I saw that Cai'er didn't know where to find a mechanism, opened a passage that only allowed one person to pass through, and walked out with the cat on her waist.
Su Ziheng followed, and when he came to the end, he found that this was actually a dry well, and the exit was blocked by a boulder on the top.
I don't know if the exit was deliberately blocked or if it was inadvertently blocked.
According to his guess, it was likely deliberately sealed to prevent someone from breaking in. Moreover, the gold, silver, treasures and various weapons stored in this secret cave, Su Ziheng suspected that it was also the capital for Zhu Chao, the king of Zhenhai, to keep for his comeback. In order to have the fall of Haizhou one day, they can also take those treasures from the outside.
