"Boss, are we all going down?" Ran Jie asked.
"No, I'll go down with you. Qin Fei and Dalong will stay outside and guard." Zhu Yu waved his hand, "The target of our tent is quite obvious, plus the car. Anyone who sees it will probably want to come over to reconnoiter. one time.
Therefore, people must be kept outside. "
"Okay." Qin Fei put away the tool shovel, took off the assault rifle on his back and said, "We will guard here."
"I'm going to observe the key points above." Cao Dalong also carried a gun out of the tent, went to a higher place, chose a location that was convenient for observation, put on camouflage clothes, and lay down to observe.
Zhu Yu and Ran Jie entered the cave with a strong flashlight in one hand and a shovel in the other, carrying guns on their backs.
The air inside was mixed with a bit of an unpleasant smell, but Zhu Yu could smell that the air in this cave was circulating, at least it was not completely closed.
Is there another exit?
Zhu Yu just guessed. He looked around and found that in the unexcavated parts, the warrior stone statues inside were still lifelike, but he didn't know when they would see the light of day again.
As we walked down to the main entrance of the passage, the earth beneath our feet turned into a slightly dry and flat stone passage.
At the end of the passage is a stone wall.
At present, it is not clear whether it is just a blocking stone wall or two forks of the passage that separate to both sides.
Under the Sky Eye state, there are no hidden weapons in this passage, just stone slabs paved on the ground.
Ran Jie took the lead and led the way. He shined a bright flashlight and found nothing alive.
The two people walked to the end of the passage and stepped onto the fork. They saw that there was just a stone wall with reliefs on it. The carvings were about a warrior who led the soldiers to defeat the enemy.
Zhu Yu just glanced at the relief and roughly deduced that it should be a product from three to four hundred years ago.
The two people turned to the right and turned around the stone wall, and saw a large hall in front of them.
The main hall is about the size of two basketball courts, with dozens of stone warrior statues standing in line on both sides.
These warrior statues all hold scimitars in their hands and look majestically towards the center of the passage.
"Boss, those scimitars seem to be real." Ran Jie shined a bright flashlight on the statues and said suddenly.
"Indeed, it's true." Zhu Yu nodded, "But don't worry, they won't move. They won't wait for us to get to the center and start slashing like in the movies and TV shows."
Ran Jie smiled and walked towards the warrior statues.
Zhu Yu also walked over and walked to a warrior statue. He looked at the scimitar in the hand of the warrior statue and reached out to take it down.
It turns out that those scimitars were inserted into the hands of the warrior statues. When the stone warrior statue was carved, a special position was made in the palm to hold the scimitar.
After the statue is complete, place the scimitar in the palm of your hand.
Zhu Yu swung his scimitar twice, and the sound of wind splitting the air felt very comfortable.
"Let's put the knife here for now. We'll see if we need to take it with us when we come out." Zhu Yu said, and then continued walking in with Ran Jie.
This hall is very empty, but it is just an excessive place. Apart from warriors and reliefs, there is nothing of value.
At the end of the hall is a stone door. Zhu Yu and Ran Jie worked together to push open the stone door and saw five steps going down behind the stone door.
After walking down the steps, I shined a bright flashlight and found that this was a relatively small hall.
In the center of the hall is a warrior statue more than two meters high. The statue is located on a stone platform one meter high, one meter long and one five meters wide.
Compared with the warrior statues outside, this statue is taller and larger, and its image is more vivid.
The statue's helmet is exquisite, its eyes are inlaid with two emeralds, and it wears gold armor. It wields two scimitars with both hands, and it looks very powerful.
Zhu Yu walked up to the statue and gently knocked on it. He found that the statue was made of hollow copper.
"Is this statue hundreds of years old?" Ran Jie asked.
"There are words on the stone platform, but I just don't recognize them." Zhu Yu pointed to the crooked characters on the stone platform and said.
"I'll take a photo, go back and have a look, and find someone to translate it." Ran Jie reached out for his phone, while Zhu Yu used his flashlight to shine on the words, and he took the photo.
The hall was not very spacious, and there was only this statue in the middle. After taking the photo, Ran Jie took a private look and knocked on the wall with an engineer shovel.
"It's impossible to just have these two halls in total, they are too simple!" Ran Jie said while knocking.
Zhu Yu looked around, then walked to the stone wall to the left of the statue and pushed hard, and a secret door appeared.
"There really is a mechanism! It's just too simple." Ran Jie was a little surprised and commented again with a click of his tongue.
Zhu Yu did not explain. In fact, this secret door was not simple. Although the location of the secret door is easy to find, after all, this hall only has four walls.
But there was a small faint pattern on the spot where Zhu Yu pushed it down. It would be difficult to find it if you didn't look carefully. And if you don't press the pattern position correctly, the door cannot be opened.
The secret door opened, and behind it was a passage two meters wide and two meters high, extending diagonally downward.
Shining the flashlight along the passage, you can see that after the passage extends for about twenty meters, it reaches the end, and there is a turning at the end.
Zhu Yu and Ran Jie looked at each other and carefully walked down the passage.
After passing the corner, you can see another large space in front of you.
"Boss, listen, there seems to be some noise."
"The sound of water. There is an underground river below... No, there are gunshots above!" Zhu Yu replied casually, and then he reacted.
There is a situation!
"Boss, stay here, I'll go up and take a look!" Ran Jie dropped the engineer shovel, turned around with his gun and rushed up.
"If there are too many people on the other side, lure them in here! You know the situation here, use the terrain to kill them!" Zhu Yu shouted.
"Boss, I understand!" Ran Jie replied and rushed forward.
Zhu Yu originally planned to continue walking down, but when he thought something was wrong, he dropped the weapon shovel and followed Ran Jie up.
When Zhu Yu rushed to the top passage, he found that Ran Jie had joined the battle.
Looking through the Sky Eye, Zhu Yu could feel Qin Fei in the tent shooting into the distance. But Cao Dalong, who was originally observing from above, was nowhere to be found.
Through analysis of the impact point of the bullet, it can be seen that there are only one or two people in the distance at most, and they should be sniping here from a distance.
Now with the addition of Ran Jie, the opponent's firepower has been suppressed, and there is still power left.
I think Cao Dalong should have gone around to touch the enemy. This is an old tactic of our army.
Zhu Yu stopped thinking about joining the battle, turned around and walked deeper into the passage.
After walking to the place where the engineer shovel was thrown away, Zhu Yu picked up the engineer shovel and continued walking forward.
In front of him was a space almost as big as the previous hall.
In the center of this stone room is a ten-meter-sized coffin, which is about one and a half meters wide and two meters long. It feels quite big.
The sarcophagus has complex patterns and reliefs, and is decorated with gems, gold and silver, and looks gorgeous.
At the four corners of the stone chamber, there are four bronze statues of goddesses, holding copper lamps in their hands. They should have been lit before, but they have been extinguished now.
Looking up, the top of the stone chamber is an Arabic-style dome, dotted with gems that look like a star map.
Apart from this, there is nothing else inside the stone chamber.
A gate was opened in the stone room in the direction of Zhu Yu. The sound of water that Zhu Yu heard earlier came from this gate.
The Heavenly Eye glanced at the sarcophagus, and Zhu Yu found that it contained the bones of a man. The burial objects were a two-handed sword and a suit of armor, and nothing else.
So he walked directly towards the door with the sound of water.
After walking out of the gate, there is a stone platform at your feet. The stone platform extends to the lower right, about twenty levels.
The space that I looked at was almost as big as the space where I first saw the stone warrior, but it was higher.
At the end of the stone steps is an underground river about two meters deep and five or six meters wide, flowing horizontally through this space.
The space is in the shape of a turtle's back, and the water outlet is only half a meter high from the river surface, making it difficult to see clearly from inside.
The end of the space where the river flows is basically flush with the river surface, as if the river flows into a stone cave.
No wonder when we first started digging the cave, we found that the air was circulating. It turned out that this place was a connected underground river.
The underground river water is very turbid, and some creatures can be vaguely seen in it.
If ordinary people come here, they will basically lose interest in continuing to explore.
Zhu Yu habitually scanned it with his heavenly eyes, and then discovered that there was a cave in the underground river.
There were four copper boxes on the bottom of the river, which were already rusty.
There was nothing else in the box, it was filled with irregular round gold coins.
There are patterned heads on both sides of the gold coins, but Zhu Yu doesn't recognize them.
These four boxes were not placed directly in the river, but were almost flush with the sand and gravel at the bottom of the river.
It's even covered with a layer of sand.
So even if you jump into the river, it is difficult to find their existence.
It is not difficult for Zhu Yu to retrieve these copper boxes full of gold coins from the two-meter-deep river, but for ordinary people, it is not that simple.
Zhu Yu felt that there was something fishy about this matter, even if Yuan Fang came.
The man who hid the gold coins would not keep it so secretive. This is not convenient for coming later to collect gold coins.
He was not in a hurry to go down, but put away his gun and walked down the stone steps with the engineer shovel, observing carefully on both sides.
Soon Zhu Yu discovered the clues.
The flow of the river is not very fast, and there is actually a gate hidden in the underground river outlet.
As long as this gate is lowered, the river water can be cut off in a short time.
I see!
Zhu Yu walked along the narrow river to the gate. After groping on the stone wall for a while, he quickly found the switch of the gate.
Pulling down an iron handle disguised as a stone, the suspended gate suddenly fell down, blocking the river water.
The design of this gate is actually one-time?
The water level of the river that was cut off immediately dropped.
Although the gate is not tightly connected, it still takes a certain amount of time for the water to rise to cover the gate.
In less than five minutes, this underground river almost bottomed out.
Some creatures in the underground river were jumping on the sand at the bottom of the river in panic.
Zhu Yu walked towards the four boxes containing gold coins.
He used his engineering shovel to shovel away the sand, revealing the top of the gold box.
He reached out and put the boxes into the space one by one, and a big pit appeared at the bottom of the river.
There was still some water left around, and it was quickly poured into the pit.
At this time, the trapped water has slowly crossed the top line of the gate and poured down from the top.
The amount of water is getting bigger and bigger, and the water level of the underground river is slowly rising, slowly covering Zhu Yu's shoes.
He retreated to the stone platform, looked around again, and found that there was nothing else around except these, so he retreated to the hall where the sarcophagus was stored.
At this time, footsteps and Ran Jie's shouts came from the passage above.
"Boss, are you down there?"
"Yes, how's the situation?" Zhu Yu greeted him.
"It's a small thing, but it's also a big worry for us." Ran Jie clapped his hands and said:
"The person who made the sneak attack was the Japanese who escaped from the group of people who were planning to attack our plane.
Just like what our prisoners said before, they came here intending to receive the supplies left by the old Americans. It turns out that you, boss, are here, planning to kill two birds with one stone.
They have been following us for the past two days, including here. They also did some detection, but found nothing.
After we killed most of them, this kid originally planned to find foreign aid when he escaped, but their organization said that it would take time to send people, so he asked him to keep an eye on us.
He was a little impatient when we took action today. He was afraid that we would leave after getting the things, so he made a secret move when he saw Qin Fei leaving. "
"Is he alone?" Zhu Yu was a little confused.
"Yes, he is the only one. This guy only observed Qin Fei coming in and out of the tent, but did not notice the big dragon hidden above."
Ran Jie smiled and said:
"When I went out, he thought he had attracted our firepower, so he planned to fight guerrillas with us.
Unexpectedly, the dragon came around behind him and caught him off guard.
He injured an artery, and Dalong threatened him that he would not receive treatment if he did not tell the truth. Then he told him that we had arrested people alive before and actually had their information, but we just wanted to verify it.
This guy will do everything to survive.
Including the existence and contact information of that organization, as well as the people who are coming this time. "
"That's good, we can wait for work." Zhu Yu nodded.
"Yes, that's what we think too. Those people will arrive at midnight today or tomorrow morning. When they arrive, we will make a bag and let them get in." Ran Jie said bitterly.
What bothered him the most was these tails that couldn't be shaken off.
"How is this kid doing now?" Zhu Yu asked.
"Dead. There is only one signal transmitter left, and his backup will parachute down." Ran Jie said:
"The arteries are severed, and we have no way to stop his bleeding. Dalong is coaxing him and giving him morphine."
"The big dragon has done enough damage!" Zhu Yu smiled, "He didn't forget to trick others even when he was about to die."
"It doesn't matter if people like this cheat more. They are going to die anyway. If they don't cheat, their death will be in vain."
"This is just a tomb." Zhu Yu changed the subject, "It seems that there aren't many valuable things."
"Then what's inside..."
"If you are interested in playing with a machete, if you are not interested, just stay here. Then you can cooperate with the local old tower.
If we hand over this thing, maybe we can expand our business even more. "
Zhu Yu has already taken away the most valuable thing. The remaining empty shelf would be good to keep as a cultural relic unit.
Afghanistan has been really miserable these years. The better cultural relics have been destroyed by successive wars.
Even the Bamiyan Buddhas are gone. If there is real peace, it will be very uncomfortable for those who have some national pride.
Now that such a thing exists, it is a comfort to them.
Zhu Yu really wants to hand over this thing, maybe it can be used as a surprise weapon in the future.
Ran Jie naturally had no objection. He shook his head and said:
"If you really want to keep them, don't even take the knives. Keep them whole. Those knives don't look like Damascus scimitars to me, so they're not a good thing."
"Okay, let's go. Although we didn't get anything good this time, we will definitely gain a lot in the future. You will each own one share of the business here."
Zhu Yu secretly took advantage of Datou. Although it was difficult to tell anyone about this matter, he did not intend to treat Ran Jie and the others badly.
Now that the escort team has been sent, he actually plans to buy a new model of C-30 transport aircraft.
In the future, trade with this side will definitely become bigger and stronger.
One share was left for each of Ran Jie and the others. It didn't look like much at the moment, but he might just be a chicken that laid golden eggs in the future.
Ran Jie was naturally very happy.
The two people walked back to the exit. This time, Qin Fei and Cao Dalong were both there.
After explaining Zhu Yu's decision to these two people, Qin Fei said nothing, but Cao Dalong looked very happy:
"Hey! I didn't expect that a poor man was buried under this! But it's worth it. If I can exchange it for 10% of the shares, I might become a billionaire in the future!
Boss, can Da Fei and I go down for a spin? Also take a look at what’s there. "
"Of course, you can go down and take a look around quickly. When you come up later, we will seal this place."
Cao Dalong and Qin Fei quickly went down and walked around, but ran up again within fifteen minutes.
"Hey, it's not bad. There's something, but not much. It seems that he was also a waste of money and people during his lifetime." Cao Dalong said with a smile, "Boss, should we seal it now?"
"good!"
The four people quickly sealed the entrance to the cave, then removed the tent and camouflaged the location of the seal.
This was something the four of them were already very skilled at, and soon there were basically no traces of excavation here.
"Boss, Da Fei will take you back first, and then bring a group of team members over."
After the matter was done, Ran Jie said:
"We will set up an ambush here at night, wait for those guys' foreign aid to arrive, and catch them off guard!"
"Then I won't be involved in this matter." Although Zhu Yu knew that if he strongly requested to stay, Ran Jie and the others would not refuse.
But professional matters should be left to professionals.
Staying by yourself is a big deal and may distract them.
Now that there are enough professionals here, there is no need for me to get involved.
Considering that you are worth a lot, don't take risks at this time. Safety comes first.
"Then you must make a good plan and put safety first. Don't hurt your own people just to stay alive."
"Don't worry, boss!"
Qin Fei drove Zhu Yu back to the base in a Hummer, then pulled four or five young men with guns and rushed over to the place where he was preparing for an ambush.
As the sky darkened, Zhu Yu had dinner at the base and quietly waited for the results of Ran and their actions.
