No matter how uncomfortable it is, the valley cleanup work still has to continue. By around three o'clock in the afternoon the next day, most of the remains under the soil were dug out, and even some fragmented bones were collected.
The last finishing work was left to others, and Li Mo led a group of people towards the mountain. The entrance to the treasure land is at the bottom of the steep slope of the mountainside. If it weren't for the strange boy, Li Mo would never have the chance to discover the hidden entrance.
"Mr. Li, do you need us to do anything?"
"The cave where the treasure is hidden is very deep and must be powered on. Your task now is to enter the treasure cave, arrange the power supply, and officially enter the cave tomorrow. Major Shi, please pass on, anything in the treasure cave Don't bang, otherwise it will be a violation of discipline, you know the seriousness of the matter."
"clear."
Li Mo led a group of engineers to the steep slope of the mountainside, pointed downward and said, if you slide down from here, there will be a platform about fifteen meters below with the corpses of three islanders on it. You must be extremely careful when you go down, and you must wear a gas mask when entering the cave. You can only take off the mask when you are sure there is nothing wrong.
"Associate Professor Li."
CCTV media staff arrived with Professor Zhu and others. They walked to the steep slope and stretched their heads to look, but found nothing.
"This is a big steep slope, and the entrance of the cave is right below. Look at that place. I picked fifteen branches of wild ginseng that are more than a hundred years old there, and I happened to find the cave from the side. Because it was dark and deep inside, so today It is impossible to enter the cave, but we can go down and take a look at the entrance of the cave first, because three corpses were found at the entrance of the cave. Considering safety issues, Jia Siyuan and Teacher Gu will follow me down later, and the others will wait until tomorrow. Hole."
Teacher Gu is good at island translation. He was specially transferred from the Translation College. He is also relatively young, only in his thirties.
"Okay, I'll listen to Associate Professor Li."
The engineers had already gone down one after another, and they waited for about half an hour before it was Li Mo's turn. Jia Siyuan was very excited. He was the first media to enter the treasure cave. Fortunately, a satellite antenna had been installed on the mountain, so the live broadcast was not affected at all.
"Siyuan, how many people are watching the live broadcast room right now?"
"More than 13 million people are watching online at the same time."
No wonder live streaming is so profitable now.
"Be careful later."
The three of them landed on the platform one after another. Jia Siyuan immediately turned the live broadcast camera to the three corpses and said strangely: "Associate Professor Li, that corpse had a dagger stuck in its chest. Was it fatally stabbed before death?"
"Judging from this situation, there is a high probability that he was killed by a knife." Li Mo gently took out the dagger and looked through it a few times and said, "Teacher Gu, what do these island words mean?"
Jia Siyuan immediately pointed the camera at the dagger and deliberately zoomed in so that everyone in the live broadcast room could see it clearly.
"This is a name that translates to Takano Jiro."
Li Mo already knew what this meant from Gao Yunfeng's mouth, but he still had to pretend. Then he took out another diary from the corpse's arms, opened it and took a quick look at it before handing it to Teacher Gu.
"Let me see."
Teacher Gu took the notebook and only glanced at it for a few times before saying: "This is the diary written by Takano Jiro. Mr. Li, the origin of this island countryman is not simple. Judging from the content of the diary, he is a descendant of the Takano family of the island country. .”
"never heard of that."
Teacher Gu continued: "It's normal if you haven't heard of it, but Associate Professor Li must have heard of it. Yamamoto Isoroku, the admiral of the island nation's navy during World War II, planned the attack on Pearl Harbor. His original name was Takano Isoroku, and he was later adopted. When I came to my mother's clan, the Yamamoto clan, I changed my name. Look, it's clearly written in the diary."
"Teacher Gu, let me take some photos, and then you can look back and see if you can find records of the time they came to China, as well as records about the treasures."
"Okay, let me take a look."
After a while, Teacher Gu pointed to a page in the diary and said: "It says here that in the winter of 1982, a tourist group of 37 people entered China. If you come to the Changbai Mountains in winter, it will be covered with heavy snow, poisonous insects, poisonous snakes, and many wild beasts will also be dormant. Security is greatly enhanced here.”
"I took the picture."
"Associate Professor Li, look here again. Several people's names were mentioned. They are all members of the tour group. You can trace them carefully."
Teacher Gu was flipping through the pages, and Li Mo took photos of the key content when he came across it.
"The contents of this diary completely exposed the greed and shamelessness of the islanders, but those who do evil will be punished by death. They eventually died here. I sent these photos to the officials and waited for them to verify them one by one."
Li Mo took out a transparent bag, put the dagger and diary in it, and put a label on it.
"Associate Professor Li, there is a pen in this person's pocket, and there are words on it, which means Yoshiko Matsushita. It should be a woman's name. But judging from the skeleton of this corpse, it doesn't look like a woman."
"Maybe it was a gift from his lover or friend. Look at the darkness around his throat. It looks a bit like he died after swallowing poison."
Jia Siyuan zoomed in on the camera.
"The third one was hit hard on the head. You can see that the bones in the back of the head are all broken."
"Associate Professor Li, the diary says that there are thirty-seven people in the tour group, and there are three outside the cave, so the rest may be inside. Should we enter immediately?"
"It's not a possibility, but a certainty. When I found this place before, I dared to enter it only when I was fully armed, otherwise I would die here like them. We will decide whether to enter the cave based on the situation tomorrow. Let's send these three corpses first Go out and collect their relics, maybe there are still descendants of them on the island country."
The three of them returned outside, and the professors who were waiting there gathered around them. They were watching the live broadcast just now, but before they even entered the treasure cave, a big thunder exploded.
The islanders actually used the excuse of traveling to do shameless thefts in China, and it was very likely that they would kill each other due to uneven distribution of the spoils.
This can create a good topic and make things bigger.
"Associate Professor Li, can I enter the treasure cave tomorrow?"
"We will play in the front line tomorrow. If you have anything to do, feel free to arrange it."
Li Mo signaled everyone to calm down and said: "Things will not progress that fast. I have entered the treasure cave before, and those island people killed each other. On the one hand, it may be because there are too many treasures and they are greedy. On the other hand, it may be because There is some kind of toxin in the cave. When people inhale it, they will become confused and have hallucinations, so they will kill each other. I personally think the latter is more likely, so we can't easily do it without confirming that it is 100% safe. Into the cave."
"Go back to the hotel to rest today and wait for my notification tomorrow. I heard that there is a very famous market at the foot of Changbai Mountain. Every day, businessmen from all over the world come to buy medicinal materials. There is also a market there that collects medicinal materials, antiques, and delicacies. , a characteristic industry chain integrating tourism. If you can’t enter the Treasure Cave tomorrow, you can go to that market first.”
"Since Associate Professor Li said so, we should follow his unified arrangements. After careful consideration, it seems that they are more likely to be poisoned."
Yama Mountain is shrouded in miasma all year round and is extremely poisonous. It is normal for the air in the treasure cave to be poisonous.
