The card with ten million RMB was originally used to ask Lan Mu for help, but now it was given to Dungar.
Fang Moqi really didn't expect that he would spend so much money to come to the United States for revenge. He was speechless.
He used to have some assets, with a net worth of tens of millions, but now he was so poor that he had nothing left.
In addition to a few thousand US dollars in pocket money, he only had a property in the country and a few shares left.
"Why do you want to bring Nedre with us? Let her stay here! "
The four of them got into Dungar's car. Fang Moqi saw Nedre following them and said with a frown.
"We're going to kill people. Don't you know how dangerous it is for a girl to come with us?"
Dungar smiled and said, "Of course I know. Nedre, you stay here and wait for us to come back."
Nedre was unhappy when she heard that. She forced herself into the car and said, "How can I do that! I must go. "
"I'll go wherever my idol goes! Uncle, didn't you promise to take me? I promise I won't drag you down! "
Fang Moqi and Lan Mu looked at Dungar helplessly.
Dungar said, "I'm glad that you took the initiative to bring this up."
"Since you took the initiative to let Nedre stay, it means that you really don't want to kill her."
"On the contrary, if I bring Nedre with me and you don't care about her life or death, I won't say anything, but I'll be vigilant."
Lan Mu was stunned. Dungar was really cautious. He unknowingly set a trap and tested them with different tricks.
Nedre seemed to be determined to go with them. She grabbed the seat and held back a few tears.
The three of them took turns to persuade her. They used all kinds of persuasion and coercion, but Nedre didn't listen.
In addition, she was a restless girl who didn't understand Spanish. It wasn't safe for her to be alone in Mexico, so he decided to bring her along.
Lan Mu and Fang Moqi thought that they would do the killing anyway. All Nedre had to do was hide. She wouldn't be in any danger.
According to Dungar, the entrance to the Golden City was 40 kilometers away from Mexico City. They would arrive in two hours.
Along the way, Dungar explained the secrets of the Golden City as he drove.
"The legend of the Aztec civilization's City of Gold has been around for a long time. I've read many books, and it's rumored that there were seven of them, collectively known as Civora. All the books say that it's hidden in Teotihuacan …"
"Actually, no. Our family's ancestor, Baymon, and the Gates family's ancestor, Ezreal, had been searching for the legendary Civora during the American War of Independence. Finally, they found a special entrance outside the ruins of Teotihuacan in Mexico."
"There is no Golden City in Teotihuakan, only the entrance!"
"At the bottom of Lake Texcoco!"
…
There were two big backpacks in Dungar's car. He seemed to have been preparing the tools to enter the Golden City all along.
Fang Moqi and Dungar each carried one backpack. The four of them arrived at a large lake.
"Is it under here?" Lan Mu looked at the lake. No wonder no one had found the Golden City. The entrance was so hidden.
However, he said, "What if there's a drought and the lake runs out of water? Won't the entrance be exposed? "
Dengar shrugged and said, "Then what can I do?"
"Look! There are mud prints here. This big rock has been stepped on by at least seven or eight people! "Fang Moqi squatted in front of a rock that was located by the lake.
Dungar nodded. "It's from here. It seems that many people have gone in … Alain …"
"Time is of the essence. Let's hurry up!" Lan Mu said and jumped into the lake.
After the three of them went into the water, Nedre stood on the shore and said, "I … I'm going in too?"
Dungar said, "Come down quickly! At least two people need to turn a roulette to open the entrance temporarily. "
"Once it stops turning, the entrance will close immediately. So, Nedre, you have to go into the water with us. Otherwise, stay on the shore!"
After that, Lan Mu was the first to dive into the water. Fang Moqi and Dungar followed closely behind. Seeing that everyone had gone down, Nedre stamped her feet and hurriedly jumped into the water.
The lakeside was usually not very deep. However, this place was an exception. There were rocks on the riverbed near the shore. The largest one was ten meters high.
Under the water, no one could talk. Dungar moved away the smallest rock, revealing a black roulette inside.
Dungar made a gesture and put his hand on the roulette. Lan Mu hurriedly went forward to help.
The roulette was easier to twist than they had imagined. Deng Jal and Lan Mu worked together to turn it. They could feel the flow of the roulette. The ten-meter-long rock actually moved, revealing a hole behind it!
It was actually a mechanism!
Dungar pointed at the entrance of the cave. Fang Moqi hurriedly pulled Nidley, whose face had turned purple from holding her breath, into the cave with her eyes tightly shut.
The lake water gradually formed a large whirlpool. They didn't know what was inside the hole, but it was constantly swallowing water.
Dungar and Lan Mu used their strength to turn the roulette twice. One after the other, they also jumped into the hole.
The roulette lost its control and immediately began to turn on its own. The ten-meter big rock also closed back up.
Lan Mu was the last to rush in. The force of the current was so strong that he was knocked upside down and hit the hard ground.
The four of them all came in. The big rock also closed up with a loud noise.
It cut off the lake water from continuing to flow in. Previously, the water that flooded in was knee-high. However, there seemed to be a drainage channel. The water level dropped rapidly.
Lan Mu looked around. It was pitch black. Then, he heard a puff sound and a light lit up in the darkness.
It turned out that Dungar took out a cold light bullet from his backpack. The orange light barely illuminated the area within three meters.
"Follow the water!" Dungar led the way in front. Everyone followed the light source.
This was a cave. It was damp and dark. The water on the ground flowed from high to low. They were at the higher end of the tunnel.
The tunnel became narrower and steeper as they walked. In addition, the ground was wet and slippery due to the water flowing through it all year round. The four of them finally couldn't stand.
"Don't walk. Just slide down!"
After Dungar finished speaking, he directly sat on the water. It was as if he was playing on a water slide. His speed suddenly increased and he slid down.
"This …"
Everyone followed suit. They could only slide along. Thus, the four of them each had their own postures. They played on the slide in all kinds of strange shapes.
After a minute, the tunnel seemed to suddenly break. They were lifted up by the huge force of the slide. Suddenly, they became weightless.
"Ahhhhh!"
Nedre screamed the loudest. Her scream produced continuous echoes in the cave.
"Puff puff puff!"
The four of them fell onto a large stone slab. Only then did they breathe a sigh of relief.
Lan Mu tried to stand up. Before he could take three steps on the large stone slab, he found that the slab under his feet was tilted. He was so scared that he hurriedly ran back to the center.
Fang Moqi also took out a light. With the two lights shining together, they could see their surroundings clearly.
The tunnel of their "slide" was directly above them. When they fell from the inside, they fell right onto the stone slab.
The surface of the stone slab was a four-meter square. It was surrounded by a circle of moss-covered stone walls. The bottom was a bottomless sinkhole!
They were on the stone slab in the center of the sinkhole. If they walked out from any direction, the stone slab would tilt. For the time being, only the four of them could maintain stability in the middle.
"This is a square seesaw?" Fang Moqi quickly reacted.
Dungar nodded and said, "That's right. There's a stone pillar under our feet. The pillar is at the center of the stone slab …"
Fang Moqi shone the light on the four walls. Suddenly, he saw a hole in one of the walls. There was an ancient rope ladder made of hemp and wood sticking out of the hole.
His eyes lit up and he said, "I understand!"
"We have to jump off the stone slab, grab the rope ladder, and climb into the hole …"
"The seesaw is easy to break. There are four of us. Each of us can maintain balance by standing on one side."
"One of us will go up first. At the same time, the other three will adjust the angle and stand in a triangle to maintain balance."
"One more person will jump up, and the rest will stand in a diagonal position. The last two will be the most difficult. My brother and I will do it. "
"Mu, you'll be the third one up. I'm confident that I can go up alone."
Fang Moqi spoke eloquently. Lan Mu nodded. This trap was indeed easy. It mainly tested the teamwork of the team.
As long as they were not alone, they could pass it easily. No wonder Dungar said that two people should enter each time. So this was the key?
"Come on! We'll stand separately. Nedre, you'll be the first one to jump up later! "Fang Moqi said confidently.
Seeing Fang Moqi giving instructions, Lan Mu smiled.
"There's no need for Dungar to face the wall. Fang Moqi found a way to pass it in an instant. I have to say that he's really experienced. He's worthy of being an Extreme Hunter …"
Before Lan Mu could finish his thoughts, he heard Dungar laughing. "Jump what?"
"Blindly giving instructions!"
"If you jump into the hole, you'll be greeted with endless traps and mechanisms. In the end, you'll get nothing because it's a dead end."
Dungar's words stunned the three of them. Fang Moqi scratched his head and said.
"A dead end? Then where's the way out? "
Dungar pointed at the bottomless hole under the stone slab and said, "Jump down from here."
"Jump … jump down? Oh … I get it … "Lan Mu suddenly understood and smiled without saying anything.
Fang Moqi was depressed. He also understood and felt a little awkward.
On the other hand, Nedre was confused and asked, "Uncle, won't we die if we jump down from such a deep hole?"
Dunjar laughed heartily and said, "This is also where the Aztecs confuse the intruders …"
"The real trap is not in front of you, but in your heart."
"If an enemy intrudes and they land on this seemingly dangerous seesaw with the bottomless hole below, they'll naturally think that the mechanism is in the hole."
"The Aztecs deliberately set up a hole for people to jump up. Ha! They even thoughtfully placed a rope ladder … "
"Jumping from the seesaw into the hole seems dangerous, but it's actually very simple. Any exploration team can do it. Once they enter that well-designed hole, they'll be faced with endless traps and mechanisms, but they'll never find the real treasure. "
"The way out is the way out, and the way out is the way out …"
Nedre didn't really understand, and Fang Moqi added on.
"I was misled by the seesaw just now. I preconceived that the combination of the seesaw and the hole was dangerous! Actually, thinking about it carefully, if they wanted us to fall to our deaths, wouldn't it be better if they didn't set up this stone slab? "
"If this was just an ordinary stone slab, I wouldn't have thought so much …"
"But the Aztecs let the explorers feel a trace of 'danger' here, and deliberately let them decipher this' danger 'and lure them into the real dangerous hole! I think there must be traps in that hole to lure the smart people step by step, right? "
"Haha! This is specially designed to trap the explorers! If someone has the mentality of deciphering the mechanism to find the treasure, they'll be tricked to death in the first round! "
Lan Mu patted Fang Moqi's shoulder and said with a look of disdain, "Don't act cool, we're in a hurry."
"Leave the matter of leading the way to Uncle Dungar. Don't give orders!"
Fang Moqi's face turned red.
