The pond is three meters deep, but it can't help it, the internal power of the five dynasties in the body is running back and forth, although the mouth and nose are blocked, the breathing is as usual. He dived deep into the depths of the water, and the bottom of the water was covered with a thick layer of silt, and he was sure that he was not bad. This pond is at least twenty or thirty years old, and it is impossible to accumulate so much silt in just ten years.

The visibility of the bottom of the water is not high, and you can only grope a little bit.

There is a large hole in the water and water at the top and bottom of the pond, which has great momentum and suction.

He couldn't get closer, so he could only grope along the side of the pond. According to his estimates, even if there is a secret passage, the place where this secret passage is located is around the pond, and it is impossible to appear at the bottom of the lake, which cannot be done with the technology at this time.

I have been groping for a long time, but I see a suspicious place in my eyes. On the stone wall at the bottom of the pond, there is a protruding mark.

Du He's heart moved, swam over, and came to a close place, but his expression was overjoyed. The entire pool was made of marble on all sides, but the protruding place in front of him was blocked by countless large rubbles.

His heart pounded: "There are weirdness here! ”

He tried to remove the rubble with both hands, but it had been so old that the mud and sand had held all the rubble together and could not be separated.

Du He thought to himself, "Why don't you go up and find an iron rod!" He surfaced, and there was a circle of people on the shore, all looking nervous. They didn't know that Duhe could breathe underwater, and when they saw him diving for a long time, they couldn't help but worry.

Du Ho smiled and reassured them, found an iron rod and dived into the water again, to the bulge.

Duhe used an iron rod to knock off the sediment stuck in the cracks of the gravel, and with the help of the principle of a lever, the gravel blocked under the pond was warped little by little.

As the rubble fell, the sealed pile of stones had already made him dig a small hole. He plunged the rod deep into the hole, slamming it down, and the largest piece of gravel rolled down, a powerful suction force that tore him down.

In a desperate situation, Du He hurriedly put the iron rod across the hole and forcibly stopped his figure.

It turned out that the passage in the blocked hole was already dry, and as soon as the water was injected, a huge suction force was immediately generated to suck people in.

The suction lasted for nearly a minute before stopping, Du He was not in a hurry to go in, there was a huge movement before, which made the water turbid and muddy, and he couldn't open his eyes, so he went back to the shore and waited for it to calm down.

After a short rest, Du He dived into the water for the third time, came to the entrance of the cave and penetrated into the dark water channel three feet square, slowly advancing in absolute darkness, facing the unknown things ahead, not only did he not have any uneasiness in his heart, but was full of exciting feelings, which made his spirit more and more excited.

Even Du He himself thinks it is strange, is he born to like adventure?

With a cup of hot tea, Du He came out of the water, but it was pitch black all around, and he couldn't see anything clearly. Fortunately, he was prepared and took out his personal collection of fire folds and small torches.

The torch was lit, and the surrounding scenery gradually appeared, and it turned out to be a man-made tunnel, and I don't know how deep it was. Suddenly, there was an "ah" sound, and I saw more than 20 pairs of dead people's bones neatly placed on the ground next to their right hand, lying on their backs, their clothes and pants were rotten, and beside them were shovels, hoes and other digging tools. Needless to say, it must be the one who excavated this way, just because he knew this secret, and let people kill people and discard it here.

A trace of anger flashed in his eyes, and he secretly hated: "What a vicious heart! ”

Du He held his breath and walked forward. After walking about fifty steps, an iron door appeared around the corner, and three large iron locks were locked on the iron door.

He thought to himself, "I don't know how long this secret passage has been built, and the iron gate is rotting. "Take a step back and take a kick. With a bang, the rusty iron gate could not afford him to kick him like this, and he flew out.

Inside the iron door is a reading space, a secret room. The secret room was large enough to accommodate more than 300 people.

Du He walked into the secret room, looked around, and there were more than forty large iron boxes on the right side of the secret room, and he didn't know what they contained. Other than that, the chamber was empty, and there was nothing left.

"Looks like all the mystery is in these boxes!" He muttered to himself, walked over, and reached out to open an iron box.

Under the light of the torches, the contents of the box shone with a dazzling light, and I couldn't open my eyes. Hurriedly removed the torch, looked intently, and stood on the spot.

The big iron box was piled up with gold bars, each weighing a pound.

Du He hurriedly opened the treasure chest beside him, but the treasure chest contained pieces of silver cakes.

He held his breath and concentrated, forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart, and opened the iron treasure chests in turn, without exception, each treasure chest contained either gold bars or silver cakes.

Counting carefully, there are a total of 11 boxes of gold bars and 36 boxes of silver cakes, and the weight of each box of gold and silver is about 300 catties.

According to the Tang Dynasty's unit of measurement, one catty was equal to sixteen taels, so eleven boxes of gold bars were equal to fifty-two thousand eight hundred taels of gold. And thirty-six boxes of silver bread were equal to one hundred and seventy-two thousand eight hundred taels of silver bread.

What a horrible amount does that add up?

Not to mention raising people, it's no longer a problem to raise an army with this huge amount of money!

He thought about it like this, but his body was shocked.

He didn't think about it, but it gave him a hint that the other party was so tightly organized and asked for such a huge amount of assets, but they might not have this thought.

Du He's heart was pounding, and his eyes were sharp. In his one-year career in Datang, he has fully integrated into this society, and in his eyes, Datang is China, the motherland, and no one should want to subvert and harm it.

At this time, Du He suddenly noticed that the flames were gradually getting smaller, his expression changed drastically, and he shouted: "It's not good, this place is closed, and there is almost no oxygen." ”

At the moment, he didn't care about anything else, and he was lucky and galloping, through the tunnel, into the water, and once again swam out of the pond through the dark tunnel.

He has excellent internal strength, can breathe through the skin pores, and has a long breath, so his demand for oxygen is much lower than that of others. The oxygen contained in the secret room was extremely low, and ordinary people would definitely die, but he happened to be an anomaly.

Back on the shore, Duho looked serious, and the sudden thought took over his head.

The more he thought about it, the more suspicious he became, and the more he thought about it, the more serious it felt was as serious as he imagined.

With such a huge amount of money, it is not normal to get together, not to mention that someone has the heart to take it now?

It is completely conceivable that someone will save a huge amount of money for a certain big thing. When the time comes, take it, and now that the time is ripe, it is the right thing to take.

In addition to raising the army, Du He really couldn't think of anything else that needed to use such a huge amount of assets.

After a little groaning, Du He did not hesitate, changed his clothes, and went straight to the palace.

The matter has come to this point, this is no longer his own business, this matter is related to the safety of Datang and the turmoil of the country. With his own strength, he could not annihilate the group behind the scenes in one fell swoop, and only Li Shimin was able to do this.

Duho came to the palace and was led by the guards to the royal garden. This time, Li Shimin unexpectedly did not deal with government affairs in the Ganlu Palace, but in the garden, under the sun, lying on the Hu bed and playing with the birds leisurely.

Seeing Du He's arrival, he didn't get up, but asked people to move Zama and let him sit down at will.

Seeing Du He's serious face, Li Shimin smiled and said, "You kid won't be as verbose as Wei Zheng and them!" ”

Du He shook his head and smiled bitterly, he was also a little embarrassed for Li Shimin. Li Shimin's diligence and love for the people are obvious to all, perhaps because of the emperor's sorrow, as an example for all the people, as long as he makes any misdeeds, if Wei Zheng and some ministers see it, they will come up to oppose it. These misdeeds even include the manners during rest, fighting birds and playing with rabbits. There was such an incident in history: once Li Shimin met Wei Zheng when he was fighting birds, and he was so frightened that he hid his beloved bird in his arms and suffocated the bird to death.

The emperor who is so afraid of his courtiers, I'm afraid there are not many people in history.

Their intentions were good, but in Duhe's opinion, they were too harsh. People should be like bows and arrows, loose and galloping, so he is not against Li Shimin playing, provided that he has to handle government affairs well and cannot lose his mind by playing things.

Du He smiled: "It's okay to take a proper rest, the kid believes that Uncle Li is a wise man, if it weren't for the completion of state affairs, there would not be such leisure." ”

Li Shimin's face was full of happiness, and he said with a smile: "You kid still understands me!" There's really nothing big going on lately. ”

Du He's expression turned serious and said: "Your Majesty, but the minister is here for a big event!" ”

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, and handed the bird to the palace maid next to him.

Du He said: "There are some things that the minister wants to discuss with His Majesty alone. ”

It was the first time for Du He to face Li Shimin with such a serious attitude, which made him stunned and realized the seriousness of the matter. Raising his hand, he withdrew all the people, and only the two of them existed in the huge imperial garden.

"What is so serious, now I can say it!"

From the beginning of Zhang's house purchase, Du He heard the words of the haunted, met a suspicious Taoist priest, drew his sword and tried it, and then the mansion was haunted, hunted ghosts, found the Pei family, and finally found that the pond dug a cave and found tens of thousands of gold and silver cakes.

Li Shimin began to feel a little fantastical when he heard it, but with Du He's in-depth analysis, his expression gradually became suspicious, and when it came to the discovery of gold and silver, the whole person stood up with emotion.

"Is that true?" Li Shimin's face was cloudy, even a little hideous.

Du He smiled bitterly: "This kind of big thing, how dare you tell a lie!" ”

Li Shimin clenched his fists, walked back and forth in front of Du He, and his expression seemed to have thought of something, gloomy and a little terrifying.

It was the first time Du He had seen Li Shimin show such an expression.

After a long time, Li Shimin suddenly sighed and said, "Du He, do you know about the Xuanwu Gate eleven years ago?" ”
