Starting My Treasure Hunting In England

After quickly watching what happened around the vehicle for three days under the power of the card, Liang En generally understood what had happened here.

Obviously, the Japanese soldiers stationed around the airport must have driven their cars to hide something. As a result, they encountered local guerrillas during the transportation and were completely wiped out.

At first, Liang En was worried that the guerrillas might have found what the Japs had hidden, but then he realized that since the conflict broke out around the car, they should be far away from the treasure location. right.

After all, the treasure hiding place is about two hours away from this place. In addition, after the group of guerrillas killed the Japanese officer, they did not go towards the mountain forest where the group of Japanese soldiers went before, but chose another way to leave.

"What should we do next?" Fan Meng asked Liang En in a low voice after watching Liang En put his hands on the wreckage of the truck without moving for two or three minutes.

"Come with me, I know where to go next." Liang En said, leaning on the crutches in his hands and leaving the quagmire with Fan Meng, then picked up all the equipment and walked in one direction.

"I think since the other party can use a truck to transport supplies, the supplies must be in large quantities." Liang En said while pushing aside the thorns in front of him.

"In this case, there are not many paths that the other party can choose. Although the tropical rainforest is enough to erase a lot of traces in more than half a century, this does not mean that all traces will be erased."

At this point, Liang En stopped, then pointed to a tree and said, "Look, that tree seems to have traces of manual trimming."

Because of the blessing of the card [Careful Observation (R)], Liang En was able to observe some things that others could not discover from the clues in the surrounding environment.

For example, this tree is like this now. It can be clearly seen that one side is sparse and the other is lush, and the sparse side has traces of being trimmed with sharp tools.

This tree was not an isolated case. In fact, from the moment he set out, Liang En found that there were many trees in his direction with such traces.

After all, that group of people did not just act alone, they needed to transport a large amount of materials. Therefore, it is necessary to clear the obstacles on the way forward.

After so many years, although the growth of the trees has almost hidden all the traces of the modifications, if you look carefully and consciously, you can still see some unnatural places.

"You are right, this must have been repaired before." After walking to a tree pointed out by Liang En and inspecting it carefully, Fan Meng also found the artificial traces on these trees and A judgment was made.

"If I read it correctly, these trees should have been trimmed by someone with an ax or machete, and the purpose of the trimming was to clear a passage. In other words, if we follow these traces and walk all the way, then we should We can find the destination of these people’s previous actions.”

Following these living road signs, Liang En and the others finally came to the bottom of a small earth slope that was only thirty or forty meters high, and then found the suspicious place on the mound at a glance:

One side of the entire mound looks as if a mudslide had erupted and covered one side of the mound. Although the top side is now covered by vegetation, traces of the mudslide can still be seen.

"This debris flow does not look like a natural formation. It looks more like a scene caused by a small-scale blasting." As a professional, Fan Meng quickly saw the specific conditions of this debris flow site.

"And in such a deserted place, when ammunition was in short supply at the end of the war, such a relatively small-scale explosion was carried out. There is a high probability that it was to hide something."

After confirming the secret on this mound, Liang En and the others took out the metal detectors they carried with them and started checking. Surprisingly, as soon as they walked up the hillside with the turned-on detector, they heard an alarm sound coming from their headphones.

After choosing a place and digging a few shovels, Liang En and the others quickly dug out something. What they found shocked Liang En and the others.

"Japs have really lost their humanity." Liang En muttered softly after looking at the Type 99 rifles that were rusted into a ball, but the model could still be distinguished and the bones mixed together.

Obviously, it is not very likely that the Japanese soldiers who died in this place died of accidents. The high probability was that they died after learning the secret and were silenced.

Especially after digging out many bones, Liang En and the others could basically confirm their previous judgment.

Because the six skulls excavated were all shot in the head, and judging from the degree of damage to the skulls, these wounds were all caused by shooting with a pistol at an extremely close range.

Considering that during World War II, the Japanese were not like Americans, and even soldiers could have a pistol in each hand. So now these bodies are obviously homicides.

Being able to silence one's own people can explain some problems, so Liang En and the others first selected a place to prepare a camping site, and then began to dig on the hillside.

Fortunately, perhaps because the Japanese were short of all kinds of materials before their defeat, even the explosives used for blasting were short, so the floating soil was not too thick.

The two people dug with shovels along the spot where the metal reaction was strongest on the hillside. Just after 5 p.m., Liang En felt the tip of his shovel hit something metal again.

When night fell, a row of trees spread diagonally on the hillside appeared in front of the two people. This row of wooden signs is nailed together by rough iron nails and is square in shape with an angle of 60 degrees to the ground.

Due to the humid and hot climate in this area, this square wooden raft with a side length of more than 3 meters looked very rotten, and Liang En's shovel just passed through the rotten wood and reached the metal plate below.

"It seems like this work won't have to be postponed until tomorrow." Liang En smiled after he cut off the arm-thick but already strong wood on the raft with a shovel. "But we need to work a little extra night time."

Although this place is in the wild, it is not too dangerous because it is not too far from human settlements. Therefore, the safety of working at night can still be guaranteed.

Not to mention that before the two of them left the plantation, they borrowed a Philippine imitation of the M1911 from the plantation, so there was no need to worry if they encountered any wild beasts.

Relying on the illumination of their headlamps, the two men quickly cleaned up the rotten wood, then used shovels to smash open the big rusty lock and opened the rusty door.

It was at this time that the two people discovered that the door was not an iron door at all. Instead, it was modified from the wreckage of a downed aircraft. It is precisely because the main material is aluminum that it can be relatively completely preserved to this day.

"Finally, we got through it." Fan Meng wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked after taking a few breaths while leaning on the shovel. "Shall we go in now?"

"Let's wait until tomorrow." Liang En said after taking a breath. "This kind of sealed place needs to be well ventilated after a long time, and who knows what the Japanese have prepared in the cave. In our current state, it will not be easy to handle if we encounter any traps."

While the two people were talking, a faint smell of mold and decay came from the cave.

After smelling the smell, Liang En and the others immediately moved away from the entrance of the cave, and then chose a place more than ten meters away from the entrance of the cave. Set up camp and prepare to continue work the next day.

Although Liang En was able to confirm from the images he had seen before that the boxes and oil barrels contained no biological weapons, but God knows how many kinds of messy gases there are in this tunnel that has been closed for seventy or eighty years. It is always good to be on guard. .
