Zhou Hao raised his head to the surface, looked up at the starry sky, and secretly wondered: "Could it be that the map drawn by Ye Feng is simply made up?"

It seems that the master is probably in vain! Thinking of this, Zhou Hao slapped the river heavily in anger.

The turbid river water splashed high and splashed Zhou Hao's head and face, and even a little poured into his mouth.

"Poof!" Zhou Hao opened his mouth and spat out the river full of mud and sand, and was ready to go ashore and give up this treasure hunt.

"Wait, mud and sand!" Zhou Hao had just climbed onto the shore, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, as if he had grabbed something!

"Mud, sand!" Zhou Hao lowered his head and muttered to himself, his eyes flashed, and he suddenly realized.

Zhou Hao, who seemed to have a knack for everything, had a hint of joy on his face, picked up a thick dead branch from the shore that was more than a foot long, and dived into the river again.

As soon as he dived underwater, Zhou Hao stabbed the thick branches in his hand one after another to the area he had just explored.

The thick silt at the bottom of the river, accompanied by Zhou Hao's continuous agitation, surged up, and the already turbid river water suddenly turned into a lump of mud.

After a while, Zhou Hao, who kept poking at the bottom of the river with a branch, suddenly felt a light in his hand, as if something had been stabbed by himself in one fell swoop!

Zhou Hao, who was overjoyed, hurriedly threw down the branches in his hands, and his hands were at the bottom of the river for a while.

Just in the blink of an eye, the silt in the half-zhang radius was completely cleaned by Zhou Hao, revealing a dark and deep hole!

Zhou Hao did not rush into this hole, but surfaced, took a few deep breaths in a row, and then plunged into it.

In fact, there is indeed a dark hole under the water! But there is no artificial cleaning, and the sediment brought by the river water is gradually deposited at the mouth of the cave. After six years, the accumulation of sediment has completely sealed the entrance to the cave!

It's no wonder that Zhou Hao only relied on his hands to probe, and there was no way to find the entrance blocked by the silt. It wasn't until a little muddy river water with sediment poured into his mouth that Zhou Hao had a flash of inspiration and figured out the trick.

Besides, after Zhou Hao got into the underwater dark hole, he found that although the entrance of this dark hole was small, the further he went, the bigger it became! And judging from the trend of the dark hole, it should be that the terrain should gradually rise, and it has been spreading to the belly of the mountain around the blood dock.

Zhou Hao was in the dark cave and dived into sixty or seventy zhang in one breath. Just as the air in his lungs was about to run out, he suddenly felt like the top of his head was empty!

Looking up and sweeping around, it was pitch black, without the slightest light, and it was not clear what was going on, but he had already surfaced from the bottom of the water.

Zhou Hao stepped on the bottom of the water with both feet, like a blind man, groped forward, felt that the water level was getting lower and lower, and finally simply stepped on the hard shore.

Zhou Hao dug in his arms for a while, found out an oiled paper bag for water, and took out flint and fire folds from it.

"Whoa!" After lighting the fire fold with a flint, Zhou Hao, who was completely blind, finally lit up with a little light in his eyes.

Although the bright light was faint, it was enough for Zhou Hao to take in the surrounding situation.

This is a small cave, with a radius of only about ten zhang, and the entrance to the cave is completely submerged in water. In the open space at the water's edge, there is a high platform made of pebbles and no more than two feet long and wide.

This high platform is three or four zhang high, and it is supposed to prevent the treasure in the cave from being flooded when the river rises. And on the high platform, lying quietly in seven or eight huge iron boxes.

Seeing the huge iron box on the high platform, Zhou Hao's heart was pounding involuntarily, and his face showed an ecstatic expression.

Holding the fire fold, Zhou Hao rushed to the high platform in a few steps, looking at the black and heavy iron box, the joy on his face was even stronger.

These eight huge iron boxes were tightly wound by thick iron chains, and on the iron chains, they were locked with large locks.

But where can this stump Zhou Hao! Stretched out his hand to hold the big lock, and the strength in his palm spit out, "Click!", and the thick lock suddenly broke into two.

Removing the big lock and iron chain, Zhou Hao reached out and lifted the first iron box.

"Huh!" Once the iron box was opened, the entire cave suddenly lit up! Zhou Hao suddenly felt the bright light in front of him, and he squinted his eyes very uncomfortably after being in the dark for a long time, and looked intently into the iron box.

The eyes are full of yellow dazzling light!

Nuo has a large iron box, and it is full of neatly stacked gold bars! The dazzling golden light of the yellow cancan reflects the whole cave room shiningly!

Each gold bar is the length of the middle finger, two fingers wide, and one finger and a half thick.

Zhou Hao slightly estimated that there were at least 3,000 gold bars in such a large iron box! That is to say, there were 30,000 taels of gold in this box, worth 300,000 taels of silver!

Zhou Hao smacked his tongue secretly, 300,000 taels of silver! It is enough to buy 10,000 acres of fertile land, and everywhere he goes, he is rich!

Suppressing the surging tide of heart, Zhou Hao hit the second iron box!

Or a chest full of gold!

The third iron box is still full of gold!

The fourth bite

The fifth bite

Sixth mouthful

Zhou Hao opened six iron boxes in a row, and each one contained nothing else, full of gold!

Six iron boxes with yellow and golden light illuminate the entire cave room!

A full 1,800,000 taels of silver is worth gold, enough to make anyone crazy!

After opening six treasure chests in a row and being shocked six times in a row, Zhou Hao was even a little numb, and muttered in his mouth: "These water bandits are all addicted to gold, why are there no other treasures except gold?"

While speaking, Zhou Hao walked to the seventh iron box, drew a scoop with a gourd, and opened the box.

This time, it's finally not gold!

Inside the iron box, there were six small wooden boxes, and Zhou Hao opened them one by one.

In the first wooden box, there was a box full of round pearls the size of a dragon's eye, and Zhou Hao roughly counted them, and there were more than 200 of them!

The second wooden box is filled with hundreds of red, yellow, blue, purple and green, colorful gemstones!

In the third wooden box, there are more than a dozen pieces of crystal clear jade!

In the fourth wooden box, there are three ginseng with the thickness of children's arms, all beards, and even faintly transformed into human faces!

In the fifth wooden box, there is a fist-sized night pearl!

In the sixth wooden box, there were actually 300 silver tickets with a denomination of 1,000 taels!

Although Zhou Hao doesn't understand jewelry, the approximate value can still be estimated. The value of each small wooden box is no less than that large box full of gold, and even surpasses it!

Not to mention anything else, those 300 1,000 taels of silver tickets are just worth a box of gold!

Among these treasures, the three ginseng and the night pearl were the most valuable, at least far more than the value of a box of gold.
