"Boss, how do you know there's a cave here?" Lu Guan asked curiously.
Li Du rolled his eyes and said, "Isn't it marked on the map? Just look carefully here. The cave is not the eye of a needle. There are so many of us. How can we not find a cave? "
There were some markings on the map. It was a very detailed satellite map. Li Du had already marked the map according to the scenes shown in the film, and now there seemed to be no flaws.
He showed it to Lu Guan and said impatiently, "You don't have to worry about this. Go into the cave and see if there's any danger."
Lu Guan smiled, took out a torch, and bent over to enter another cave.
This was the last cave. After passing through the cave, there was a continuous red oak forest.
Red oak trees were very common on the Blue Ridge. They were in the picture, but they were so common that people knew that the gold treasure was related to this tree, but they could not find the specific location.
Going out from another opening in the cave, they saw the red oak forest. Li Du stood at the edge of the forest and let Lu Guan take a picture of him. Then he waved and said, "Let's go back."
Lu Guan was shocked. "Go back? Not looking for the treasure? Going back empty-handed? "
Li Du snorted. "Who said we're going back empty-handed?"
He entered the cave and began to search along the cave. The cave was very humid, and moss grew on the walls. He used a shovel to shovel away the layers of moss, looking for a gap.
This cave was a letter cave. There was a passageway connecting two caves. The outer cave was connected, and the inner cave was sealed. The gold was hidden inside!
After storing the gold in the cave, Chief Alisena sealed the cave passage with stones and pasted a layer of moss-covered wall skin over the seal.
In this way, even if someone entered the cave, unless they knew the specific situation and found the passage to remove all the stones, it would be impossible to find the treasure, not even by chance!
When Chief Alisena took the picture, he stood on the ground, stepping on the rocks above the cave. Many people thought that he had hidden the treasure in the red oak forest, but that was not the case. The treasure was hidden in the cave under the red oak.
The situation in this cave was similar to that in Ah Bai's hometown, but one passage had collapsed naturally, and the other was blocked by someone.
As a stone fell to the ground, it made a loud bang, and the sound echoed in the cave.
Godzilla said, "Boss, here."
The stone was dug out by him. He found the location of the treasure passage and dug out a piece of stone.
Li Du walked over to take a look. In fact, he did not need to look to know that the passage was here. However, he still had to do some superficial work. After studying it for a while, he waved his hand and said, "Move it!"
The group of people swung their arms and started working. They formed an assembly line, with Godzilla at the front carrying the stones. One by one, the stones were moved out, and soon, a pile of stones was formed.
In the end, all the stones blocking the passage were removed, and a new cave appeared.
Back when it was sealed, there was very little oxygen in the cave, and some only flowed in through the cracks in the rocks.
Li Du lit a torch and threw it in. The blazing fire was quickly extinguished.
They opened both sides of the cave so that the mountain wind would pour in and part of it would flow into the small cave.
Li Du and the others were chatting and waiting outside the cave. Suddenly, Ah Ow's ears twitched and she looked suspiciously at the forest behind them.
Seeing this, Brother Wolf immediately raised his gun and gestured for everyone to hide. He took Ah Ow into the forest for a walk. After a while, Ah Ow appeared with a fat rabbit in her mouth.
Li Du said, "Did Ah Ow find a rabbit just now?"
Brother Wolf nodded. "Should be. She went in and ran into this rabbit."
Li Du smiled and then took back the space-time bug that he had released earlier.
After waiting for an hour or two, they went back and threw another torch into the small cave. The flame of the torch was weaker, but it did not slowly die out like before. It was still burning.
Obviously, the air in the small cave was enough to support survival.
Li Du was the first to bend down and enter the small cave. The cave was not big, with an area of more than 40 square meters and a height of about two meters. There were solid wooden boxes stacked inside.
He took out a shovel and smashed open one of the wooden boxes. Then, under the light of the fire, a flash of gold appeared!
Seeing this, the group of people all gasped.
Inside the box were pieces of gold ingots, which were relatively simple to make. The surface of the gold ingots was rough, probably because of insufficient purification and some gravel or other metals.
However, these were gold ingots, each the size of an adult's palm. Li Du reached out and picked up a piece. It was very heavy, probably five or six kilograms.
Brother Wolf exclaimed, "God, are these all gold nuggets? Native American gold nuggets? Have we found Native American gold nuggets? "
Li Du went to cut open the rusty iron chain of another box. Instead of gold nuggets, there were gold weapons that looked like knives and guns.
Of course, these weapons were not really used for fighting. They might have been works of art used for tribal sacrifices or tribal collections.
He opened another box, which contained twenty or thirty gold masks, some as heavy as helmets, and some as thin as cards.
Whether it was the gold weapons or the gold masks, they were more valuable than the gold nuggets!
Driver, Lu Guan, and Firecracker stood guard outside the cave. Li Du only brought Brother Wolf and Godzilla in. He had seen the gold treasure through the space-time bug in advance. The value was too high, and he had to guard against people who were greedy for money.
He had absolute trust in Brother Wolf and Godzilla, so he could bring them in.
Even though they were steady, they were a little crazy when they saw so much gold at this time. They breathed quickly and went up to grab the gold objects to examine them carefully, their eyes shining with a strange light.
This was the charm of gold. Many people questioned why gold could become the hard currency of various countries since ancient times when it was just a kind of metal and a useless one at that.
From the discovery of archaeological civilizations, gold had a high value at the beginning of the world's civilizations. At that time, there was no possibility of communication between these civilizations, which meant that the value of gold was unanimously recognized by people everywhere.
Li Du thought that gold was born with this charm. He usually did not have much contact with gold, but now that he saw these gold objects, he subconsciously liked them.
Brother Wolf and Godzilla were extremely restrained people, and their behavior proved that they were also conquered by the charm of gold!
Closing the box, Li Du said, "Pack it up and temporarily seal it up. Call Big Ivan and send him the coordinates. Let him fly a helicopter to pick up the treasure!"
There was too much gold here. There were twelve boxes in total, and each box contained at least one hundred to two hundred kilograms of gold, which added up to two tons.
Two tons of gold, they certainly could not take it away, especially when there was trouble waiting for them outside!
