(Looking at the news, Mohe broke the record of minus 50 degrees this year. It didn’t happen that night, so it was more than minus 30 degrees.)
I looked at the silly roe deer at my feet, being blown by the cold wind, and instantly woke up.
"Speak! What do you mean, brother! Why are you following me all the time!"
Of course the dwarf deer couldn't speak. It circled around me and then moved forward.
After walking a few steps, it stopped again and looked back at me.
"Are you calling me?"
It raised its head against the snow.
I was so happy and instantly felt novel. This was so interesting.
So the roe deer walked in front and I followed behind.
I suffered the same loss as last time, so I brought a flashlight up the mountain this time and just followed it. It felt like I could cover several miles.
There was ice on my eyebrows, and I looked around with a flashlight.
Come here dripping with snow.
There are no roads here, it is very remote and can be said to be inaccessible.
"What is this place? Why did you bring me here?"
Suddenly, the roe deer stopped in one place and kept raising its head to the ground.
I went over and pulled away the snow, and soon the ground was exposed.
"What do you mean? There's something underground?"
At that moment, my curiosity aroused, so I sharpened a branch with a knife and used it as a tool to poke into the frozen soil.
As a result, the frozen soil was so hard that it couldn't be broken with a stick.
After thinking for a while, I came up with a solution.
I picked up some dry branches from around and made a fire, then I squatted aside to smoke and wait.
After waiting for a while and seeing that the fire was almost gone, I unbuttoned my pants and peed to put out the remaining fire.
You wouldn’t know the result until you dug it, but you were shocked when you dug it!
About forty to fifty centimeters deep under the permafrost layer, there was a whole rotten wooden baffle. When I lifted the wooden board, a hole like the mouth of a well was revealed.
It's dark and gloomy down there! It's extremely cold!
The first thought that came to my mind was that this might be someone's abandoned cellar in the past, but it was quickly rejected.
Because I looked down with my flashlight and found that the ceiling was more than three meters high, and there was a shaky-looking wooden ladder standing against the wall.
Whose cellar would be built like this?
Stranger
What's more, I saw there was another door down there! It looked like it was quite old.
Seeing this scene, I didn't dare to go down.
Is this an air-raid shelter built by villagers during previous wars? Or is it an ancient tomb?
The problem here does not look like an ancient tomb. There has never been an ancient tomb with this structure in all dynasties. There has never been one.
At this time, I turned around and saw that the roe deer had already disappeared.
After thinking again and again, curiosity finally defeated the fear.
I started to climb down carefully on the wooden ladder.
As a result, when I was halfway up, I stepped on the air and fell directly from a height of more than two meters. I fell all over!
"Hey, it hurts me to death"
I climbed up holding on to the wall and took it easy for a while. There was a dull pain under my ribs and I felt a little out of breath.
I endured the discomfort, walked to the door in two steps, and raised the flashlight to look at it.
There was a thick layer of ice on the door. I tried to push it, but it didn't open. Then I took two steps back and kicked it hard!
The door was old and not strong, so I kicked it more than a dozen times! It made a big hole in the door panel.
I bent down and got in through the hole, and a cold air hit my face!
It's so cold that it's bone-chilling!
My teeth chattered, I shivered, and I looked around with a flashlight.
This is a small room, or a secret room, with a dusty table, a bench lying on the ground, and an old-fashioned horseshoe oil lamp on the table.
Move the flashlight slowly.
At this time, my pupils shrank violently!
There is a small bed in the corner. There are several thick layers of red cotton quilts on the bed. The quilt is slightly raised, as if there is a person lying underneath!
I took two deep breaths, strengthened my courage, and slowly approached.
I used a stick to carefully pick open the cotton quilt, which shocked me!
What appeared in front of me was a shriveled corpse!
It's a male corpse!
This corpse
The body and head are wrapped in a thick gauze scarf. Due to the long-term freezing and dehydration, the facial features have shrunk into a ball! The back molars in the mouth are exposed! It's scary when you shine a flashlight on it!
I gasped for breath and whispered: "Master, forgive me! Master, forgive me! I accidentally disturbed your rest here, don't blame me!"
After saying that, I held up a flashlight and searched carefully to see if I could find any valuable old objects.
Soon, I found an iron box under the bed. It was so heavy that I couldn't drag it out with one hand!
Pulling it out with both hands, I looked it up with a flashlight and saw that the thing was locked, and the iron box also said "Beijing Team, for the third team."
When I saw the three words "Beijing Team", an idea flashed in my mind, and I instantly remembered something my grandfather said when I was a child.
When I was little, I only listened to them as stories.
My grandfather once said that there used to be many people coming from the east of Guandong here in Mohe. These people came here not to open up wasteland and cultivate land, but to do the four main businesses of making money.
They are gold mining, logging, hunting, and ginseng digging.
Because there are many rare tree species and rare wild animals in our area, and there are also many placer gold mines underground.
At that time, we had the famous "Mohe Workers' Society" here, which had many teams, such as the Beihong Team, the Lixin Team, the Outpost Team, the Anti-revision Team, etc.
Is this "Beijing Team" the same team that used to dig for alluvial gold?
Thinking of this, my breathing became rapid and I became more and more excited.
Damn it, such a heavy box, could it contain a box of gold?
If so, that would be a big deal!
The alluvial gold I am talking about is not the kind of alluvial gold that is being deceived nowadays! After washing, the alluvial gold becomes a kind of pure gold, which is very expensive!
The lock on the iron box is very big. It is an old lock from decades ago. It is completely rusted. I can’t even open it with a knife!
In the end, I had no choice but to carry the iron box out.
Finally, when I reached the halfway point of the mountain, I heard shouting.
"Grandson! Grandson, where are you!"
"My boss! My boss!"
I rushed down and shouted: "Grandma! I'm here
inside!"
My grandma limped over and trotted over holding a stick.
Judging from her appearance, she was really frightened. She might have thought that I had accidentally fallen into some ice cave, or that I had been eaten by jackals, tigers and leopards in the mountains.
Mr. Liu was also sweating. He panted and said, "As long as everything is okay, boss, where have you been this afternoon! You don't know! We are almost going crazy looking for you!"
Dr. Fan Shen was also there. I saw that she was wearing a scarf and her face was red with cold.
"Master, what is this?"
Mr. Liu saw the iron box, and I originally wanted to hide it from him.
I smiled and said, "I lost my way before. This is an iron box I picked up in the mountains. It's okay. It's such a cold day. Let's go back quickly."
My grandma seemed to be holding her breath, and she scolded me immediately: "Grandson, I'm not telling you, why are you picking up everything at home? What's the use of this broken iron box!"
I didn't tell the truth, I just laughed and pretended to be careless.
10:30 pm.
When I got home, I locked the door and asked Dr. Fan to help me get a hammer and chisel from the drawer.
"What are you doing? What's in here?" she asked curiously.
I whispered: "Please keep your voice down. I'm going to tell you that there may be gold bars hidden here. Do you believe it?"
"Gold. Gold bars!" She covered her mouth with a surprised look on her face.
There must be something there, otherwise the weight wouldn't be so heavy. I said don't worry, we'll know right away if it's there!
I went straight to the hammer and chisel, tinkered with it for a while, and soon the iron box was opened.
Doctor Fan was also curious.
I just glanced down, frowned and said, "What the hell are these things?"
The box was covered with a layer of tattered oilcloth. I took off the tattered oilcloth and saw that everything underneath was tightly wrapped in red paper. There were many rolls of stuff.
Gently tearing open the red paper, when he saw what was wrapped inside, Doctor Fan screamed! He quickly covered his mouth.
My breathing became heavier and my left eyelid twitched wildly!
A whole box full of old Xin Da Yang!
Put them neatly, one pile after another!
