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!
The head of this corpse was wrapped in a thick gauze scarf. It was dehydrated due to years of freezing, and the facial features were shrunk into a ball! The back molars in the mouth were exposed! It was very scary to 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!"
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 directly used 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!
