Chapter 181: The Familiar Wooden Box

In the grassy farm, Ye Xuan and Lin Chuan, each holding a metal detector, began to search for treasures endlessly.

Ye Xuan knew the approximate location of the treasure, which seemed random, but in fact, he kept secretly adjusting his steps, and slowly walked towards the southeast little by little. Lin Chuan followed him, affected, and gradually deviated from his original track.

Before they knew it, the two of them had entered the range of the treasure.

The range of one kilometer in diameter is not very large, but if you are unlucky, it will take at least several days to rely on two small metal detectors.

On a small dirt slope in the distance, the Matt-killing alpaca, which had a very different shape, was lying lazily on the grass at the moment, looking at them with disdain.

The sunset gradually set in the west, and the audience in the live broadcast room couldn't help it anymore and began to complain.

"Well, with this efficiency, I'm afraid I won't be able to see the treasure until I die. ”

"Let's disperse, let's come back in a year. ”

"When is this going to be found?"

"Nima, I guess there's a treasure map. ”

"Suddenly remembered the black history of the patriarch, this time I won't dig out another electronic watch!"

"Haha, it's funny to think of an electronic watch. ”

"What is the stalk of electronic watches?"

"The patriarch's black history, no more than 50 people in the entire live broadcast room know. ”

Just when the audience was complaining, a piercing alarm suddenly sounded.

Lin Chuan was stunned to look at the metal detector in his hand that was constantly flashing red and sounding an alarm, and then shouted with excitement on his face: "Found the treasure!"

Ye Xuan was also stunned, and after reacting, he hurriedly ran over.

Don't say it's him, the audience was stunned. I just complained about the two of them, but I successfully found the treasure in the next second, this scene is too dramatic.

"Awesome my brother!" Ye Xuan stretched out his thumb and praised.

"Hurry up, I want to see with my own eyes, what the treasure is!" Lin Chuan's whole person looked extremely excited, even more active than Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan nodded and said, "You wait here, I'll go back and get the tools." ”

After a while, Ye Xuan drove the off-road four-wheel drive car and drove at a gallop.

Jumping out of the four-wheel drive, he took off the digging tools such as pickaxes and shovels from above, and then the two of them hurriedly began to dig for the treasure.

The land on the farm is very dry, even during the rainy season, but the scorching sun and high temperatures will evaporate the water from the surface soil in a very short time. However, this did not affect them, and the two of them were full of energy and took turns to fight. In less than half an hour, a half-meter-deep earth pit was dug.

Lin Chuan is not short of money, he can't look down on tens of millions at all, it is no exaggeration to say that these days, he has almost hundreds of thousands of rockets in Ye Xuan's live broadcast room. The reason why he is so active is that he wants to see with his own eyes what the treasure is and fulfill his wish a few years ago.

After all, he spent a lot of thought on this treasure at the beginning, but he never found it, and he always had some regrets in his heart.

It was getting dark, and night was falling.

Ye Xuan was prepared, took out two strong flashlights, opened the back rack and put them on the car. Suddenly, the intense light made the area around the pit as bright as day.

During the rainy season, thunderstorms are common in the area around Darwin, and it is usually necessary to turn off the power switch at home at this time. Otherwise, once a fire is triggered, it will be a fatal blow to the wooden house. Therefore, almost all the residents in the surrounding towns will prepare a few strong flashlights at home to use in thunderstorms.

Over time, the pit gets deeper and deeper. Ye Xuan was already completely standing in the dirt pit, continuing to wield the iron pickaxe, while Lin Chuan was standing above, helping to hold a strong flashlight, and from time to time he took over the soil dug up below.

"Boom!"

At that moment, a dull knocking sound sounded.

The iron pickaxe in Ye Xuan's hand seemed to have smashed on something, shaking him to a slight numbness. This feeling is just like the moment when he dug up the treasure when he was looking for treasure in Changbai Mountain, so he felt that he was likely to dig up the treasure.

"Lin Chuan, I've dug something. Ye Xuan looked happy and said with a smile.

"Really, dig up the treasure. Lin Chuan was also pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly said.

If it weren't for the fact that the space of the dirt pit was too narrow, he would have jumped down in excitement just now, and at the moment he could only stand aside and watch.

After discovering the treasure, Ye Xuan didn't dare to use an iron pickaxe anymore, so he replaced it with a small shovel and shoveled away the soil little by little with a light movement.

It took him more than half an hour to dig up the treasure completely, it was a dark chest, which looked like it was made of wood, but it was as hard as steel. The hoe just now only left a small scratch on the surface of the box.

Iron birch!

This familiar scene made him stunned. The box, in shape, size, and material, was identical to the one he had found on the ghost ship, with almost no differences.

After more than a month, he actually saw the same iron birch box again in the Northern Territory of Australia.

Looking at the wooden box in front of him, Ye Xuan was in a trance for a while.

This was definitely not a coincidence, the iron birch itself was extremely rare and rare, not to mention that the two wooden boxes were exactly the same size and style, he was sure that the wooden box in front of him must have a close connection with the ghost ship.

"Patriarch, what are you doing stupidly? ”

Listening to Lin Chuan's shout above his head, Ye Xuan came back to his senses, suppressed the doubts in his heart, and said, "I just think the material of this box is a little strange. ”

As he spoke, he picked up the wooden box and handed it to Lin Chuan, and then crawled out of the dirt pit.

Taking over the box, Lin Chuan only felt his hands sink suddenly, and couldn't help but be surprised: "This box is not light, it seems that there may really be gold coins in it." ”

At this time, the live broadcast room completely exploded, and the audience didn't expect that they would really dig up the treasure. For a time, countless barrages completely covered up the picture.

"Damn, I've really dug up the treasure. ”

"666, it can't really be a box of gold!"

"The patriarch asks for dividends, and it's okay to come to Bo welfare. ”

"Don't say it, I'll pack my things and go on an adventure right now. ”

"I'm betting on a pack of spicy strips, and the cliff in the treasure chest is an electronic watch. ”

"Hey, envy. ”

"It's good that it's abroad, otherwise it will be handed over to the state properly. ”

"What are you talking about? Aren't pennants and 500 pieces more important than treasures?"

There are so many mosquitoes here at night, and waves of mosquitoes are like swarms of bombers. The two did not stop at all, and after taking the tools and treasure chests, they hurried back to the villa in an off-road four-wheel drive.

A dark iron birch chest, which was placed on the dining table.

After Lin Chuan looked around carefully, he wondered: "Why is this box so strange, it doesn't matter if there is no lock, there is not even a gap." It can't be solid, right?"

At this moment, Ye Xuan was already able to conclude that the wooden box in front of him and the one found on the ghost ship were built in the same batch.

Thinking of this, he drew his dagger and ordered at Lin Chuan at the same time, "Hand me the flashlight." ”

Handing over the flashlight, Lin Chuan asked, "Patriarch, do you know how to open the wooden box?"

Of course, he knew that he had opened the same wooden box with his own hands a month earlier, but he couldn't say it.

Ye Xuan nodded and explained: "I read it in a book before, this is a wax sealing technique, although the switch is a little inconvenient, but it can keep the box dry in a humid environment. And the material of the box is iron birch, which has a super waterproof and anti-corrosion effect. Regardless of whether there are any contents in the box or not, the value of the box itself alone is almost 100,000 US dollars. ”

"Damn, is there such a thing as iron birch? I always thought it was a rumor. After listening to his explanation, Lin Chuan stepped forward and carefully looked at the wooden box.

"Iron birch does have an exaggerated component, and the real hardness is only equivalent to ordinary carbon steel. ”

While speaking, Ye Xuan had already found the wax seal on the wooden box, skillfully inserted a dagger into the gap, and cut the sealing wax little by little.

Could it be another diary?

With such doubts, he put down his flashlight and dagger and slowly opened the wooden box. Lin Chuan also stepped forward, trying to keep his eyes open, staring at the wooden box without blinking, trying to see what was in the treasure chest.

As the wooden box was opened, the contents gradually appeared in the field of vision of the two.

Is that......
