Eventually, several people split up.
Seeing Zhu Yu walking forward in a daze, Ran Jie and Qin Fei looked at each other, said nothing, and went their separate ways.
In Zhu Yu's memory, there was a map of this city. The place he went to was the city lord's mansion. There should be good things there.
The city lord's palace did not live in the center of the city, but directly opposite their camp, passing through the entire city.
Because the target was obvious, Zhu Yu didn't open his eyes.
Turning his head and looking over there, he found that Ran Jie had already crawled into a dilapidated house with only a few half-walls remaining and started to pull it out.
Hans was still pointing out, saying that they had found jewelry and other things in places like this.
Qin Fei was also digging at the ruins of another house.
This site is relatively large and should be fruitful.
Ten minutes later, Zhu Yu walked to the other end of the city ruins and saw a courtyard ruins covering an area of at least dozens of acres.
Because the building materials are relatively good and the area is relatively large, there are still many surface buildings such as stone walls and stone platforms left.
Some of the growing bushes contained fallen building debris.
Zhu Yu opened his eyes and searched carefully.
Soon, he found several pieces of gold jewelry under a side house.
Mayan gold jewelry has a rather strange style. Zhu Yu looked very unique and dug in with a shovel.
It's half a meter deep, but there are no bones. It shouldn't be left behind by people who died of the plague.
Sure enough, when it was dug out, what looked like a headdress was placed in a box. It must have been left behind by the original owner when he left.
Zhu Yu simply wiped the things, put them in his backpack, and continued moving forward.
In the city lord's mansion, the harvest was indeed quite large. After a while, Zhu Yu found several more gold ornaments in a room.
Zhu Yu guessed that the owner here should have a relatively important status in the city lord's palace, otherwise it would be impossible to use gold ornaments.
Digging down, the soil underneath is still wet. Except for the gold ornaments, other parts have been rusted into disarray. But it can be seen that there is copper and iron.
Just like this, he dug bit by bit, and when he came to a relatively large room, which Zhu Yu thought was the room where the city lord lived, he felt that he had finally gained something big.
Below, there are six gold ornaments, seven gold ornaments, more than ten silver ornaments, and various gemstones.
What surprised Zhu Yu the most was that there was a black dagger inside - not even a bit rusty!
The excavation work was quite arduous, but fortunately Zhu Yu's strength was several times stronger than that of ordinary people.
The shovel flew, and soon he dug a big hole.
Every golden item comes out of the pit, and the feeling of harvest is really beautiful!
Zhu Yu roughly estimated that these six gold jewelry alone were almost half a kilogram of gold.
Those ornaments are heavier!
Zhu Yu dug out the ornaments again, ignoring the silver products, and took out the black dagger first.
There were some other weapons near the dagger, but they were obviously rusty, so Zhu Yu ignored them.
Digging in such a place did not burden him at all.
Rather than staying here and not seeing the light of day, it is better to play a greater role in your own hands.
The dagger was dug out and Zhu Yu looked at it carefully.
The whole sword is only about 40 centimeters long, and the blade is more than 20 centimeters long. Both blades are very sharp and have blood grooves. They are obviously not decorations.
Although it had been buried underground for hundreds of years, the dagger was really not rusty at all. When he waved the dagger lightly, the branches of the shrubs next to it broke.
There is almost no feeling of obstruction at all!
Not to mention cutting iron like clay, at least it is very sharp!
Zhu Yu immediately fell in love with this dagger.
He looked for it again, but didn't find the scabbard. It must have been rotten.
Zhu Yu wrapped the dagger in the clothes he didn't wear and put it in the space, planning to get a scabbard when he had time.
At this moment, a shout of surprise came from over there, and Zhu Yu heard the voice that should be Mira.
Could it be that this chick found something good?
Zhu Yu looked over, and with his current eyesight, it was not enough to clearly see what was in Mira's hand seven or eight hundred meters away.
You must have found something good, right?
Zhu Yu didn't care so much, drank some water, took out some food from the space and started eating.
It’s not good to take these things out in front of everyone. After all, it would be troublesome to explain if you take it out.
Now that I am alone, there is not so much to do while eating.
After eating and drinking, Zhu Yu felt that he had strength again, and continued to search.
Soon, he found the warehouse of the City Lord's Mansion.
What surprised Zhu Yu was that the warehouse should have one floor above ground and one underground floor.
After the ground floor collapsed, things were buried very shallowly - although there weren't many things, they were easy to dig out.
Under twenty to thirty centimeters of soil, there were several boxes of gold coins and gold nuggets!
During the Mayan city-state period, did they use gold coins?
Zhu Yu didn't know, but this didn't stop him from quickly digging out these boxes of gold and storing them in the space.
Zhu Yu sighed, he was really lucky!
Hans said that they had dug here, but they probably didn't find it.
If you find this place, wouldn't it be easy to find huge wealth?
This is much safer than entering the sacrificial hall!
But thinking of this, Zhu Yu immediately stood up and looked around, but found nothing unusual.
He twitched his nose and smelled it again, but there was no strange smell.
so far so good.
A bit of an overreaction.
The eye of the sky glanced over and saw that there was a lot of gold, gems, grain, medicinal materials, armor, weapons, etc. in the underground warehouse.
However, the underground warehouse is relatively deep. After thinking about it, Zhu Yu decided to dig it out.
The more of these things, the better!
As soon as I took off the shovel, I heard a scream!
It’s still Mira’s voice!
Zhu Yu immediately stood up and looked over there!
He found that Mira was jumping on the spot first, and then running towards this side like crazy!
Ran Jie and Qin Fei came to her side immediately, and then ran like flying. One caught up with Mira, first slapped her, then dragged her away, and the other ran over and dragged her up. Hans!
All four people ran towards Zhu Yu's direction!
what's going on?
Zhu Yu was a little confused!
When he was still three to four hundred meters away from Zhu Yu, Ran Jie shouted loudly:
"Boss! Run! There are ants!"
Ant?
What happened to the ants?
Zhu Yu was confused.
"Meat-eating ants!" Ran Jie added, and Zhu Yu suddenly remembered the rumors he had read about ants here, and his expression suddenly changed!
He yelled:
"Pumiti, there is danger, run quickly!"
The guide Pumiti is still there, he doesn't want this little aborigine to die!
Then he picked up his backpack and rushed towards the jungle following the four people who had already run over!
Zhu Yu occasionally turned his head and could see densely packed small black dots emerging from somewhere and chasing after them!
Fortunately, the speed is not very fast, at least no one is faster.
"Mila was bitten!" Ran Jie said as he ran, "The ant is as big as a finger, and with one bite, it can pinch off a piece of meat as big as a mung bean - it really eats meat!"
After running out of the ruins of the city and into the jungle, Mira and Hans could no longer run.
The five people slowed down and panted while walking. Zhu Yu asked:
“Where do ants come from?”
Mira clutched her chest and said intermittently:
"I was digging in a house near the edge and dug out a very beautiful gemstone. Then I continued digging and dug out a few ants. I was afraid that they would bite me, so I trampled them to death. Unexpectedly..."
Thinking of the previous scene, Mira was filled with joy!
Even if she didn't have trypophobia, she was so frightened when she saw so many ants emerging from the ground that she almost collapsed to the ground - and then she was bitten.
"It hurts so much! It hurts like a fever!"
Zhu Yu knew that this was the formic acid excreted by ants seeping into the skin or wounds, and it felt like burning.
"They shouldn't be able to catch up. Let's go back later, get our backpacks and leave. It's too dangerous here!" Zhu Yu suggested.
"Okay." Hans was a little reluctant. Among these people, he was the only one who hadn't dug anything yet. His luck seemed to have completely disappeared with the treasure that sank into the ground.
After applying medicine to her wound, Mira said: "I agree, it's too dangerous here. I don't think it's worth risking my life for some property."
Then she showed off the gem, which was oval, the size of a pigeon egg, milky white, and very beautiful.
Zhu Yu subconsciously glanced at it with his heavenly eye and was shocked!
"This isn't a gem, it should be the egg of something!"
What Zhu Yu blurted out shocked everyone else!
This thing looks like a very beautifully polished gem!
"It can't be crushed, it's very hard." Mira shook her head and said in disbelief, "It should be a gem."
"You'd better give it a try." Zhu Yu shook his head. He subconsciously turned his head and screamed:
"The ants are catching up!"
Others looked over and found that dense ants were chasing in this direction again!
And wherever they went, some plants were eaten away, and even some birds were bitten by the ants that climbed up the trees and fell down, and then turned into a few white bones!
Later, those bones disappeared into the ant colony!
These greedy guys!
Zhu Yu couldn't imagine what would happen if people like him fell into the ant colony!
Without his reminder, the other four people started running wildly again!
After running for nearly a kilometer, Mira and Hans couldn't run anymore, so they took another break.
However, they underestimated the persistence of those ants. Within ten minutes, the ants caught up again!
Very fast! Beyond their imagination!
They ran away again - however, this time, God did not care about them, there was a river in front of them!
Although the river is only forty or fifty meters wide, it blocks Zhu Yu's path!
"Run down along the river!" Ran Fei suggested. There was no boat or bridge at the moment, so he could only run along the river.
The others had no objection, and they continued running along the river.
Just like this, they kept walking and stopping. After two hours, Hans and Mira couldn't walk anymore, so they stopped at the mouth of a river.
"Rest, rest, I can't run anymore." Hans collapsed on the ground and waved his hand, "The ants shouldn't be able to catch up!"
Zhu Yu is not so optimistic, those ants are very persistent!
He said to Mira again:
"You'd better take a look at the one you found. It should be an egg! Maybe those ants are chasing us because of that egg!"
Mira was still a little hesitant.
Along the way, he has never fought for anything, so his presence is not strong.
However, she dug out this "gem" with her own hands, and she really liked it!
Seeing Mira's hesitation, Zhu Yu originally wanted to use force, but after thinking about it, he decided not to.
Along the way, Mira was not as submissive as Jason and Wilson. Although she didn't talk much, she always cooperated well.
Therefore, Zhu Yu was still patient even when the situation was not very dangerous.
"Why don't we give it a try." Zhu Yu said to Mira, "We take your 'gem' to the ants, put it in a place, and then we get out of the way. If the ants move this thing, then my guess is wrong. Wrong. If not, then I will compensate you for the gem."
"I don't want compensation, as long as you promise to get the original gem back by then!" Mira said.
"Okay!" Zhu Yu felt that he still had this ability - although the predatory ants were powerful, they were not endless and there was always a range.
Anyway, there is plenty of time now. As long as Mira and Hans are settled, there will be time to deal with predatory ants.
After resting for a while, Mira reluctantly followed Zhu Yu and Ran Jie in the direction of the ants.
Qin Fei took Hans slowly downstream and continued walking.
Zhu Yu, Mira and Ran Jie walked back less than 500 meters when they saw the ants running quickly in front of them!
So fast!
Zhu Yu and Ran Jie were both shocked! The persistence of these ants has exceeded their imagination!
"Quickly, put your 'gem' in a conspicuous place!" Zhu Yu said to Mira.
Mira was a little reluctant to give up, but still put the "gem" on a stone.
"Okay, let's retreat!" Zhu Yu immediately ordered.
Ran Jie took Mira back more than fifty meters, and Mira stopped, saying she had no intention of leaving.
The three people stared at the "jewel" on the stone.
Seeing that the ants were getting closer and closer, then the ants suddenly divided into two groups. One group climbed directly onto the stone and "carried" the gem away!
But the other group continued to rush towards Zhu Yu and the others!
The result is completely different from what everyone thought!
Mira also knew at this time that maybe the so-called "gem" was really an egg. Otherwise, why would the ants want that thing?
"Run!" Ran Jie said worriedly.
"Let's go!" Zhu Yu suddenly figured it out, "It should be Mira that you have the aura of eggs in you. In addition, I'm afraid they are chasing us and taking revenge, but they also regard us as food!"
When he said this, Ran Jie and Mira immediately agreed, and the three of them ran away again!
No one thought that ants could run so fast!
Half an hour later, they caught up with Qin Fei and Hans, but this time, they all stopped!
Here is a fork of a big river!
There is no road ahead!
At an acute angle, if you walk back or along another river branch, you will definitely encounter a large team of ants!
