Peter didn't say anything more to Zhu Yu, but waved his hand and asked Zhu Yu to leave. He left Charlie behind to learn in detail how Zhu Yu found the box.
"... He walked to a bay and said that a small boat should be able to park here. He guessed that if the big ship couldn't stop, a small boat might be sent to transport the things down. Then he looked for traces nearby and started digging, and then he found a tree I dug down and found this box.”
"How deep did you dig?"
"About a meter deep."
"Just this box and nothing else?"
"Yes. When I opened the box, I looked and there was nothing else inside except some sea water."
"Then keep an eye on me tomorrow, I think this guy is playing tricks..."
…
The next day, Zhu Yu still got up early. After breakfast, he continued to "tour the island" with his backpack on his back.
Charlie followed without saying a word.
To Zhu Yu's surprise, they had not gone far when Peter and others also came up behind them.
Zhu Yu thought for a while and suddenly realized that Peter might want to see if there would be any other gains in the place where he dug the box yesterday.
After walking for more than two hours, Zhu Yu stopped at the bay.
In fact, with his eyes open, he has determined that although boats did stop here a long time ago, they were not a place to transport gold and silver.
At most it is a stopping place for pirates or merchants.
Because there is a spring not far upstream of the bay.
In the vast sea, islands with Danshui will definitely receive attention from the sea.
However, there is no flat place near the bay and the terrain is not very good, so we can only build a temporary docking station.
The empty box Zhu Yu dug out must have been abandoned by pirates or merchants at that time.
If we dig further nearby, there will still be some. Let Peter do these things.
He pretended to look around, then stopped caring about this place and moved on.
Charlie continued to follow, but he always stared at Zhu Yu's movements.
After walking a kilometer or two, Zhu Yu came to a high place and saw that Peter and the others had arrived at the bay and were digging nearby.
After climbing down a low mountain ridge, Zhu Yu stopped.
This is a beach with sand and rocks, but it's not big.
Zhu Yu suddenly stopped and walked towards the depths of the island with his back to the sea.
Charlie followed and suddenly asked:
"Why go inside?"
"I think there might be something in there. I'll go take a look."
"Since you have told Mr. Peter to search around the island, you'd better follow the rules!"
Charlie's tone was stiff, obviously not wanting Zhu Yu to break the rules.
"One week is probably not enough for Halo Island. I hope to find more clues." Zhu Yu explained, "Maybe there is something discovered inside."
Charlie said no more.
The center of the island is high and the surrounding areas are low. After walking forward for a while, we started to climb the mountain.
There was a platform more than ten meters above the sea level. Zhu Yu suddenly stopped, took out his tools and started digging.
The soil here is very hard, but the place where Zhu Yu dug was very soft, and a big hole was dug in a short time.
Then there was a stone slab, and Zhu Yu shouted in surprise:
"There's a treasure!"
Charlie had been observing from behind. When he heard Zhu Yu say there was a treasure, he was startled and immediately stepped forward:
"where?"
He pulled Zhu Yu away:
"Go over there! Let me take a look!"
Charlie looked into the pit and found a gold coin half exposed in the soil.
Sure enough, a treasure was discovered!
It's a pity that this man's life is about to end!
He suddenly showed a greedy look, but then he restrained himself, took out his pistol and threatened Zhu Yu:
"Okay, stay away, I'll report this to Mr. Peter!"
Zhu Yu took two steps back, and Charlie suddenly raised his gun. However, Zhu Yu had already known it, and dodged away. A gun appeared out of thin air in his hand, and he fired three shots at Charlie!
Charlie was in disbelief: How could this man have a gun in his hand?
Wasn't he searched?
This is impossible……
After Charlie was beaten to death, Zhu Yu immediately stepped forward and took Charlie into his own space, including the bloody soil, Charlie's gun, the bullet casings he had shot down, and everything else that could reveal traces.
After cleaning up, Zhu Yu continued to dig in the pit - he deliberately put down the gold coin. Although there was something buried underneath, it was not a treasure.
A broken box contained some rotten things, which seemed to be seeds or rotten spices.
Hundreds of years ago, the price of spices was higher than that of gold. It was normal to store such things here, but the person who buried them did not retrieve them in time.
In just ten minutes, two people came running over. When they saw Zhu Yu, they shouted:
"What's going on? Where's Charlie?"
Zhu Yu stood up, patted the dirt on his body, pointed in the direction of the mountain and said:
"Charlie saw a shadow shaking just now, so he rushed over. He fired a few shots while rushing, and then rushed over."
Zhu Yu spoke calmly, and the two men looked at each other and searched the area.
Zhu Yu even looked into the hole he dug, and the two of them were surprised again when they saw the broken wooden box.
I searched again, from top to bottom, including the seaside.
Naturally, there are no clues.
One of them looked at Zhu Yu, and the other rushed towards the direction Zhu Yu pointed.
There is dense vegetation there, although it is not high, at a height of three or four meters, it is too easy to hide someone.
The people who rushed over retreated, and the two people took Zhu Yu and the box back to the bay.
"You said Charlie ran into the woods?" Peter was looking at the excavation site. When Zhu Yu said this, he said coldly:
"Impossible! Charlie wouldn't do such a stupid thing! Did you hurt him?"
Zhu Yu spread his hands:
"Your men have guns, I only have shovels, and he is always behind me. How can I harm him? Besides, what good can I gain by harming him?"
Peter only doubted, but did not believe this conclusion. He said to the two bodyguards:
"Go and find Charlie! We must find Charlie!"
After Peter finished speaking, he pointed at Zhu Yu and said:
"Just follow me! By the way, what's in this box?"
A box that can be carried over will definitely not contain any valuables.
"Maybe the spices left over from that time are all rotten."
Zhu Yu opened the box and showed it to Peter.
Although it is not gold or silver, Peter pays more attention to Zhu Yu.
Others searched for a long time and found nothing. He had already found two boxes just a few days after he arrived.
Although it is not valuable, I have to say that this person is still quite powerful.
It seems that I need to study "fengshui" carefully!
Peter never believed in others. The real power was in his own hands!
The people who dug around the bay finally collected only half a silver coin, and nothing else.
Peter was a little disappointed.
What disappointed him even more was that Charlie was not found in the end.
Peter actually gave his men two orders to search for any suspicious traces there.
But, no.
Did Charlie really get into the mountains in the center of the island?
