Seeing the scene below, Chen Ran was stunned, and Wu Bing who followed him was also stunned.
Piles of gold bricks, piles of jewelry... At a glance, I just felt a flash of golden light in front of my eyes, dazzling...
In front of you is still a natural cave, about one hundred square meters in size. The cave has obviously been artificially repaired. Not to mention the things placed in the cave, this cave should be a storage room.
This can first be seen from the overall shape of the cave, because caves about the size of cabinet doors have been dug out in the stone walls around the cave.
These caves are obviously used to store things. Almost everything is filled with things. At a glance, you can see that some of them seem to be animal skins, and some of them seem to have skeletons.
, some of them seemed to contain porcelain, pottery, bronzes, and even silverware that seemed to be used for sacrifices... These could be recognized at a glance. In addition to these, there were many others that Chen Ran couldn't tell.
Something like that.
This is on the wall, and it is placed on the floor. It cannot be said to be displayed, but it should be said to be messy. It is like a utility room. There are piles of gold bricks, jewelry and gems of various colors...
Seeing this scene suddenly, not to mention Wu Bing was stunned, even Chen Ran was stunned. Although he has a lot of wealth now, no matter how much wealth he has, it is just a series of numbers in the bank. How can it be worth it?
Is the scene in front of you shocking?
Especially the treasure in front of you is not a small amount...
"Woooo..."
While Chen Ran was still looking at these treasure trotters, the giant snake that had led him to this place turned around and reached in front of him, hissing and interrupting him.
Although Chen Ran was shocked by the treasure that appeared in front of him, he was not lost in it, so when he heard the giant snake's scream, he reacted and looked at the giant snake.
But the giant snake first hissed at him twice, then looked at the little boy he was holding, then looked back at the treasures behind it, and then looked at Chen Ran expectantly.
"Do you want to give these treasures to me?"
Seeing the giant snake's movements, Chen Ran was just stunned for a moment and then asked.
The intention of the giant snake is not difficult to guess. It knows that it will die, and now it has led itself here. What else can it do besides giving these treasures to itself?
If it were anyone else who knew the intention of the giant snake, they would probably be surprised, but Chen Ran was not surprised, although the treasure hidden here is likely to be higher than his current net worth.
This is not the reason why the giant snake will not survive. To be honest, although Chen Ran was very moved by the relationship between the giant snake and the little boy, he was only moved. He had only just come into contact with the giant snake. How could there be so much?
Deep feelings.
The main reason is that his underground experience and the absorption and digestion of Ding Dian's memories during this period have greatly improved his mentality.
If it were him before entering the underground, even if he didn't get excited when he saw these treasures, he probably wouldn't be able to remain so calm.
Of course, although there is not much surprise, it would be a lie to say that I am not excited.
This giant snake was obviously very intelligent. After Chen Ran gestured, it understood what Chen Ran said and nodded affirmatively.
"Don't worry, I will take good care of him."
After a moment of silence, Chen Ran touched the little boy's head and said to the giant snake that he was not the only one who knew this place. Wu Bing stopped talking. Although the mine protection team outside did not find this place, if they
If he stares at this place wholeheartedly, sooner or later they will discover these treasures, so whether he is tempted or not, he will not let these treasures be given to outsiders cheaply.
Chen Ran naturally understood the giant snake's intention of handing these treasures to him, and his words could be regarded as a promise to the giant snake.
Under normal circumstances, animals have relatively strong sensory abilities. For example, they can clearly sense whether a person has hostility, malice, or good intentions towards it. The giant snake has become a "demon", so its sense in this regard is naturally more sensitive.
This is also the reason why when it first met Chen Ran, it only scared Chen Ran but did not hurt Chen Ran. It was also the reason why it later brought Chen Ran to this treasure room. If it had been another person, it would have been unable to do anything.
Next, maybe it will entrust the little boy to the other party, but it may not necessarily bring the other party to this treasure room.
In fact, what Chen Ran didn't know was that the biggest reason why the giant snake entrusted the little boy to him was that the giant snake sensed some of his breath. The giant snake felt that these breaths should be able to help the little boy, even if the giant snake was not so seriously injured.
It will also make the little boy follow Chen Ran.
Seeing Chen Ran agreeing to it, the giant snake was completely relieved. After feeling relieved, it seemed to be fine and fell limply to the ground. It was so weak that it couldn't even lift its head.
Chen Ran could feel that just at that moment, the giant snake had lost more than half of its vitality. The other party was obviously... But at this time, Chen Ran had no other options. The giant snake was obviously not just seriously injured, even if
Even if he had enough elixir energy at this moment, he could probably only maintain the other person's life but not make him recover.
After the giant snake fell to the ground, it only had the little boy in its eyes. It looked at the little boy with a caring look and seemed to be telling the little boy something...
The little boy couldn't help but break away from Chen Ran's hand and squat down to hold the snake head in his arms.
Chen Ran already knew that the little boy could communicate with the giant snake. Now the giant snake was obviously talking to the little boy. He didn't want to disturb them and focused on the treasure in front of him.
"How could there be a treasure here?" After taking a few glances, Chen Ran couldn't help but think of this question.
Let’s not talk about other treasures in this batch of treasures, just say that the small mountain of gold bricks is not a small amount. It is impossible for such a large amount of gold to have no origin.
Thinking like this, Chen Ran took a look at the giant snake and the little boy and then stepped forward to check.
Although Wu Bing was stunned just now, he was also attracted by the conversation between the giant snake and Chen Ran. His attention was attracted, and then he looked at these treasures. It was not as crazy as before, but the eyes
Still unable to move away for a moment, Chen Ran stepped forward to check, and he followed him involuntarily.
Chen Ran glanced at it and discovered that the piles of gold bricks were not piled on the ground at first, but should have been placed on wooden shelves. However, they collapsed over time or were hit by a giant snake.
It fell down, and so did the jewelry. It should have been in a box at first, but the box was hit by a falling gold brick.
Although those gold bricks looked very eye-catching, Chen Ran was not very interested. What attracted him was the few luminous beads mixed in the jewelry.
This was not the first time that Chen Ran saw glowing beads. There were a lot of glowing beads in the underground alchemy room. But in that case, he was thinking about how to escape from the underground.
I didn't think about taking those beads as my own.
Later, after he used the purple bead to trigger the alchemy furnace, he saw with his own eyes the magic of those beads.
Although the beads here also glow, they are obviously different from those in the underground alchemy room. When detecting the beads with alchemy energy, it seems that there is something blocking them, and the beads here cannot be detected.
Although it was a little difficult for him to detect the beads, he was able to detect them.
Chen Ran did not detect the age of these beads, which shows that these beads are completely natural.
Then these beads here should be the legendary "luminous pearls". Needless to say, the value of the luminous pearls is that the diameter of the smallest bead here is at least ten centimeters.
At present, the largest luminous pearl in the world is meters in diameter, weighs 6 tons, and is worth several billion. Although these beads here are miniature versions, according to previous Christie's auction records, each one is worth at least tens of millions of dollars.
, and the beads here are not to mention those embedded in the wall, but there are three or four that fell on the ground plus the few in the cave outside. Not to mention anything else, just these luminous beads are already worth a lot of money.
Chen Ran took two beads and played with them in his hand, then stood up and looked into the cave dwelling on the stone wall of the cave. From the stored things, it could be seen that this storage room should be a treasure room for ethnic minorities.
The nearest ethnic minority here is the village where the little boy is. I just don’t know if this treasure room is related to the village. But regardless of whether it is related or not, obviously, the only one who knows about this place is the little boy, and the adults definitely don’t know.
The location of this treasure room, otherwise this treasure room would not be ruined like this.
Chen Ran looked at the cave dwellings on both sides of the cave from the door until he saw the inside of the cave. After a rough look, he was about to turn around and go back to see the situation of the giant snake. But the moment he turned around, his eyes suddenly noticed something.
.
Seeing this thing, Chen Ran stayed there instantly as if someone had tapped his acupoints. However, he just stayed there for a moment, and he almost immediately went over and saw him from under the two gold bricks.
That thing was pulled out.
"Brother Chen, isn't this our...?"
While Chen Ran was watching casually, Wu Bing followed behind and touched this and that from time to time. He even found out a piece of animal skin, as if to identify what kind of animal fur it was. When he saw Chen Ran, he suddenly ran to the side and said something.
He immediately followed after digging through the pile of gold bricks. When he saw what Chen Ran had pulled out, he immediately screamed in surprise.
The thing Chen Ran pulled out was nothing else, but a military off-road bag. For the two of them, this bag was undoubtedly very familiar, because this bag was exactly the bag Chen Ran used to carry his things when they were underground.
At that time, all the other bags were lost, but Chen Ran still had this bag. Wu Bing was carrying it most of the time, so both of them were very familiar with this bag.
Chen Ran didn't answer Wu Bing. The backpack was here, so why didn't he feel the red snake and the blood cup?
The backpack was already rotten. Chen Ran tore it into two halves and everything fell to the ground with a crash.
His Kunwu sword, the animal skin he found in the crystal coffin, the armor that turns people into monsters, the diary left by the monster comrade, and some other miscellaneous things
The mess and the lunch box...the lunch box has been opened and there is nothing inside.
The red snake is gone, and so is the blood cup.
The red snake and the blood cup were not found. Although Chen Ran knew very well that the red snake and the blood cup were not in the cave, he immediately released ice energy to detect the entire pile of gold bricks, but nothing was found.
Chen Ran then immersed himself in his mind and carefully sensed the existence of the blood cup. However, he could only sense that the blood cup was near him, but he could not sense where exactly it was. Vaguely, it seemed that there was a thin film blocking him.
There seems to be a connection with the blood cup, but what is certain is that the blood cup and the red snake are definitely not in this treasure room.
"Why is that backpack here?"
Chen Ran is the owner of the blood cup. If he cannot be found, the blood cup should be guarding his backpack.
Since the blood cup is not there, it must have encountered some special situation?
Chen Ran immediately thought of the giant snake. This treasure room is the giant snake's territory. With the giant snake's sensing ability, it will definitely be able to sense other creatures entering its territory.
Thinking of this, Chen Ran returned to the giant snake with the backpack he tore in half. Although the giant snake was very weak at this moment, it still had its eyes open. Chen Ran walked over, and it looked at
Towards Chen Ran.
Chen Ran took the backpack and gestured to it. First, he gestured to tell it that the backpack was his, and then gestured with a red snake and asked it if it had seen a red snake.
The giant snake was obviously familiar with his backpack. It saw his gestures, digested and understood it for a while, and then gave it a few low "wows". After a few whines, it seemed to understand that Chen Ran couldn't understand it.
As he said this, he turned his head and looked in the direction of the gold brick.
Chen Ran looked in the direction it was looking but found nothing, so he had to look at the giant snake again.
The giant snake whined twice more. Seeing Chen Ran, it still didn't understand what it meant. It swung its tail as if it wanted to lead Chen Ran over, but it used all its strength to not move.
"Let's carry it over."
Seeing this situation, Chen Ran turned to Wu Bing and said, he stepped forward and first pulled the little boy up, then hugged the upper half of the giant snake's body.
Although he was no longer afraid of the giant snake, Wu Bing was obviously still a little nervous about hugging the giant snake, but he was just stunned for a moment before stepping forward and hugging the giant snake's tail.
The giant snake was too big and too heavy, so the two of them hugged and dragged the giant snake to the place where the giant snake wanted to lead them.
This place is the place where the wooden frame used to hold the gold bricks.
"You mean it's inside this wall?" Seeing that the giant snake was just looking in the direction of the stone wall on this side, Chen Ran took a long time to understand what the giant snake meant.
"Woooo..."
The giant snake nodded and looked in the direction of the stone wall, seeming a little scared.
Chen Ran felt a little strange. He looked at the stone wall and found that there was nothing on it. It looked very smooth and gave people the feeling of jade when touched.
If the giant snake is right, there is obviously such a secret room on the other side of the stone wall.
Judging from the giant snake's expression, it was clear that it didn't know how to open the secret passage here. From this, Chen Ran directly released the ice energy to detect it.
As soon as the ice energy was detected, it was blocked back. Chen Ran was shocked and thought that this stone wall was like some evil things he had encountered before and could not even detect his alchemy energy, but before he could use the ice energy,
When he took it back, a suction force suddenly came from the stone wall and sucked all the ice energy he wanted to take back.
[There are too many things to write at home, so I decided to go out and write books professionally. I have been moving these days. After moving, I went to another city alone. After looking for two days, I haven’t decided on a house yet. I will wait for Xiaofu to settle down.
