Xia Yu looked at the direction Lin Haifeng was pointing, and had a vague feeling of ominous premonition, but he couldn't tell where this feeling came from, but he secretly increased his vigilance.
Except for the dense forest, the road between the two mountains was not too difficult. The three kilometers passed quickly. However, when we arrived at the coordinate point, everyone was a little surprised. In front of them was only a large swamp covered with duckweed.
Outside the earth, there is nothing.
"Captain Lin, where is the gold?" Luo Quanyu asked.
Lin Haifeng pointed to the depths of the swamp, "The warehouse where the gold is stored should be two hundred meters ahead!"
"But...no..." Luo Quanyu exaggeratedly took out the telescope and looked around, but still shook his head, "There is nothing except the empty swamp! Is it underwater?"
Lin Haifeng frowned, "The information I got from Peng Naicai shows that the gold is stored in a special warehouse and should not be underwater, and these are all swamps..."
As he spoke, he took out the map and instruments, checked the route and direction again, and finally confirmed that everyone had not gone the wrong way.
Xia Yu looked thoughtfully into the depths of the swamp and suddenly said: "Come here, let's go to the front and explore..."
"I'll go..." Yang Zixuan followed.
"Wait!" Lin Haifeng went to the nearby forest, cut a thick and long branch for each of them, and said, "Be careful, don't fall in!"
"Thank you..." Xia Yu smiled. Although he felt it was a bit redundant, he still took it.
He and Yang Zixuan walked toward the depths of the swamp one after the other. The duckweed in the swamp was filled with leaves, large and small, densely packed together. From a distance, it looked like a newly trimmed lawn.
The two of them walked forward about a hundred meters, when Xia Yu suddenly stopped Yang Zixuan, "Don't leave!"
"What's wrong?" Yang Zixuan asked.
Xia Yu used a stick to push away the duckweed in front of him and said with a smile: "Look, it's not a swamp anymore, it seems to be a lake, and it looks very deep."
"Lake?" Yang Zixuan stretched the nearly two-meter wooden stick forward, but he didn't find it to the bottom. He was surprised and asked, "How can it be so steep?"
"I don't know...be careful and look to both sides to see where the edge of the lake is." Xia Yu said.
The two of them each explored more than ten meters to both sides and found that the dividing line from shallow to deep was actually a straight line. After Lin Haifeng learned about it, he immediately asked everyone to take action to find all the edges of the lake.
It took more than two hours to finally determine that this was definitely not a naturally formed "lake"! Because most of the edges were very steep, almost ninety degrees, and these edges actually surrounded a rectangle.
Xia Yu thought for a while and said with a smile: "I think we have found it. This is obviously a warehouse. Look here, the changes in depth here are not so drastic. It should be a sloping road."
Lin Haifeng nodded slowly, "You are right, this is a square pit, and the warehouse should be in the pit."
"It's really weird... What's the purpose of making such a big hole?" Yi Li asked confused.
"To build the warehouse we need earth and stone, which can't be transported from outside in these deep mountains and old forests, so we used local materials," Lin Haifeng said.
"Isn't this...isn't this a stupid design? There is so much precipitation here that it won't turn into a fish pond when it rains..." Yi Li said.
Lin Haifeng smiled slightly, "They should have pumping equipment, but then no one took care of it, and it turned into a fish pond, which is what it looks like now. Our next task is to go into the water to see if there is really a warehouse, and
Is there any gold in the warehouse?"
Yang Zixuan volunteered, "Let me go down! I am good at water."
"Let me go!"
"Let me go!"
Luo Quanyu and Zhang Yinyan are not to be outdone. As elite special forces soldiers, they are both good at water skills.
"I'll go..." Xia Yu said, "There might be some danger down there. I'm better at protecting myself."
"Okay, you and Zixuan should go down..." Lin Haifeng then handed each of them a small respirator, which can provide about twenty minutes of breathing air.
The two put on respirators and jumped into the water one after another. The waterproof flashlight illuminated a beam of light underwater. The water in this pond was very clear and there were many small fish living in it. Xia Yu even found several
The turtle was swimming leisurely.
The depth of this pool is nearly ten meters. There are obvious artificial traces on the bottom of the water. A road leads straight ahead. After swimming forward for nearly a hundred meters, I saw a warehouse-like building. The outside of the warehouse was full of
There are aquatic plants, and the door is blocked by many thick, half-rotted wooden piles soaked in water.
The two of them worked together to move the two wooden piles and entered the warehouse door. They were immediately shocked by the sight in front of them.
Gold ingot!
Neatly stacked gold ingots!
Although it has been asleep for nearly a hundred years, it still reflects an alluring, golden light under the illumination of a strong flashlight.
Xia Yu picked up a gold ingot, looked at it, and made a rough estimate. He felt that the news Lin Haifeng and the others got was a bit exaggerated. The news they got from Penaica was that the value of this vault was twice that of the gold train ruins in Poland.
Or even three times. There is no accurate figure for how much gold there is in the remains of the golden train, but it should be between two hundred and three hundred tons. And the gold stored in it will never exceed three hundred and fifty tons. These two
Three times is a bit too much.
But even if there were only more than 300 tons of gold, Xia Yu had a lot of gold in his hands. He smacked his lips secretly, and when he got the reward...should he get a big gold fish tank?
…
Lin Haifeng finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that there was indeed a large amount of gold stored down there. He immediately reported the situation via an encrypted satellite phone.
Chinese officials quickly decided to send helicopters to transport drainage equipment, pump out the water first, and then transport the gold away. As a result, the officials immediately established contact with the President of Myanmar and asked him to open a route for Chinese helicopters.
Since he had long promised to exchange this batch of gold for foreign exchange, the President of Myanmar quickly signed the order. Just when he was about to issue the order, Vice President Chayuchai broke into his office with two soldiers with live ammunition.
.
"Chayuchai?" the Myanmar president said in surprise, "It's so late, what do you want to see me for?"
"Mr. President, there are some things that I need to verify with you!" Chayuchai waved his hand, and two soldiers rushed forward, one on the left and the other on the right, firmly pressing the President of Myanmar on the chair.
Chayuchai took out a piece of plastic sheet and covered the face of the Myanmar President for a moment, then took it away and sneered: "I hope you can cooperate with me well, otherwise, humph..." (To be continued)
