Wake up suddenly, back to the time when my wife and daughter had an accident

Chapter 473

"Let's look around and see if we can find a slightly longer stick to push the iron door open."

The most common thing in the cave is weapons. The three searched for a while and found a few cannon barrels. Although they were a little heavy, they were still very useful.

The three used the water they carried with them to wet the towels and wrapped them around their faces, and together they placed the cannon barrels on the iron box.

An iron door slowly opened. Even if they were carrying towels, they could smell a foul smell from a long distance.

"Back off."

With Lin Jinhui's shout, the three of them took several steps back at the same time.

Meng Haisheng's flashlight shone into the dark cave, and saw that the cave was in a mess, with all kinds of bones on the ground.

One skeleton might scare people, but Meng Haisheng's fear was not that heavy when there were so many bones stacked together.

Lin Jinhui threw a piece of burning firewood into the cave, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the firewood burned normally.

It seems that there is no big problem.

The stench in the cave lingered for a long time, and Meng Haisheng and his friends were not in a hurry to go in, but went to open several other caves.

The other caves were basically filled with valuables, and one of them was filled with priceless silk fabrics. Unfortunately, this one was very delicate and had almost rotted away, and only a trace of it could be seen occasionally.

Meng Haisheng picked up a gold cake, and saw that the workmanship of the gold cake was a little rough. It didn't look like something from the Republic of China, but more like an old item handed down from the Kingdom of Nanyue.

He muttered in his heart, could it be that this treasure trove originally belonged to the Kingdom of Nanyue, and was later discovered by someone?

This is where others hide guns.

If this is true, then this matter can be explained.

The three waited for a long time before going in.

There was almost no place to step, and there were bones everywhere.

The three covered their mouths and noses and walked slowly in. The more bones they saw, the more humid it was, and some clothes and the like were completely preserved.

Lin Jinyan picked up the half of the epaulette on the ground with gloves, and then walked to the other side to pick up a pure silver tag. Although it was in English, Lin Jinyan recognized it at a glance. It was the name of a soldier and the name of the army.

"The people in here should be warlords and foreigners."

"They all died here. It's obvious that they wanted to rob the robbers, but the few people who ran out died."

The cave is very long, and there are bones all along the way. The more you go in, the more there are. According to Lin Jinhui, the bones here are divided into several periods. The earlier ones are from the Republic of China, and there are even earlier ones in the upper part. Only the bones are left.

In such a sealed environment, it would take at least hundreds of years for the bones to be left with only the slag.

After walking for a while, the ground was finally clean. It is estimated that even if there was anything, it would have turned into ashes long ago.

"Look."

Lin Jinyan took a flashlight and shone it into the depths of the cave. A huge palace was built in the cave.

The three of them stood at the entrance of the palace, and they all looked so small.

Lin Jinyan took a flashlight and shone it to the side, and indeed saw a row of ever-burning lamps.

There was no oil in the lamp, but there was still a lot in the jar next to it.

Lin Jinyan directly poured out the oil and lit the ever-burning lamp in the palace.

The whole palace slowly appeared.

At first, Meng Haisheng thought he was unlucky, and this person dug up someone's ancestral grave.

As a result, when the three of them got closer, they saw that this was a palace for sacrifice.

In the middle of the palace was a huge round copper furnace, which burned a lot of ash, and even vaguely saw 9 incense nails inserted in the ash.

The incense here is counted in nines, which should be used by the royal family.

Looking further inside, there are exquisitely carved nine dragon pillars. As for the roof of the palace, it is inlaid with fluorescent beads, made to look like a starry sky.

Everything in the palace is basically related to sacrifice, almost all of which are bronze or huge porcelain.

These have almost no appeal to Meng Haisheng.

No matter how exquisite and valuable the things here are, they can't afford it. After all, they are all cultural relics, and it is best to hand them over to the country for preservation.

"Brother, there is nothing to see here. Let's go back the same way?"

Meng Haisheng walked around the huge incense burner and looked at Lin Jinyan.

"Let's go. Let's find a way to transport the things outside first."

Meng Haisheng grinned. He thought Lin Jinyan was not with those gold, silver and jewelry.

After walking around the incense burner, Meng Haisheng was about to leave when he saw a faint light flashing on the side of the incense burner.

Meng Haisheng stopped and took a closer look. There was a thumb-sized pearl hidden in the position of the incense burner facing the inside of the hall.

Such a good thing, Meng Haisheng naturally would not let it go. He quickly took the pearl off the incense burner and put it in his pocket, and followed the footsteps of the Lin brothers.

There are many things hidden in the cave. The three of themAfter coming out, they discussed that they could only transport so many things in batches.

As for how to transport them, Meng Haisheng had a good idea.

Put the treasure in a box, then mix it with the medicinal materials and transport it to the capital.

"It's too troublesome to use wooden boxes for such a long distance. Just use sacks to transport it down the mountain and then put it in the box."

Lin Jinhui suggested.

"Okay, Jinhui is familiar with the surrounding road conditions. You go down the mountain to get the sacks. Haisheng and I will put the gold, silver and jewelry in the cave into an empty iron box and take it outside."

The three of them discussed and started working immediately.

While cleaning the treasures in the cave, Meng Haisheng and Lin Jinyan made a new discovery.

"Brother, do you think this hair crown can only be worn by the queen?"

Meng Haisheng took out a slightly pressed hair crown from a box, and saw a pair of very eye-catching double phoenix gold hairpins on it.

And the eyes of the phoenix are inlaid with rubies.

"In ancient times, only the empress and the queen mother could use the phoenix hairpin, not even the imperial concubine."

"So were these treasures stolen from the palace?"

"It's not impossible. When the Eight-Nation Alliance entered the capital, they stole a lot of things from the palace. Maybe these were hidden by the thieves."

"But I don't understand why they hid the stolen things in the mountains instead of shipping them overseas."

Lin Jinyan was silent for a moment.

"It's also possible that they couldn't transport them away, and at the same time, they discovered the treasures of the South Vietnam Kingdom."

"They hid the things and wanted to wait until the storm was over before sending people to take them."

"As a result, when they came, they accidentally leaked the news and let the warlords know."

"That's why there were bones and boxes of guns in the cave."

Meng Haisheng nodded slightly, feeling that Lin Jinyan's analysis made some sense.

"It's none of his business. Now the things are ours."

Meng Haisheng picked up a string of sea pearl necklaces and grinned.

"My wife won't have to worry about not having jewelry when she attends any dances in the future."
