Treasure hunter, sailing on the blue sea

"Mother……"

A gentle female figure lingers in my mind.

Dress yourself and feed yourself.

Gentle reprimands, worries when sick, and easy-to-understand education.

There is also the sadness of a sudden departure.

Alka took a deep breath and tried to stabilize her emotions.

The two memories put together have so many similarities.

For some reason, the fear in his heart disappeared, and the bones under his feet were no longer scary.

Something suddenly occurred to me.

Alka quickly took the bag not far away, inserted the short and thick machete into his waist, and put the flint into his pocket.

Picking up the bones at his feet, he gently put them into the bag one by one.

Stack them carefully, and from time to time peel away the dusty tree roots and leaves.

There is a little bit of moisture on the dry cloth bag.

Seeing this little bit of moisture, Alka didn't pay attention, it was just that his body was affected by the memory.

During the process of storing the bones, Alka became even more convinced that the wound was on the back.

Some of the fragments of clothing wrapped around the bones were not completely rotted, and some colors and textures could be vaguely seen.

Matches memory.

The bones were completely put into the cloth bag. The whole cloth bag was bulging. They were carefully sealed and placed next to the stone wall.

Picking up the torch beside him, Alka continued to go deeper inside.

He has not forgotten his true purpose here.

It's just a few steps away, and it can't be called in-depth.

In the innermost part of the cave, you can see box after box of wooden treasure boxes being opened.

It was already empty inside, with some silver coins scattered around.

"As expected, someone has already arrived first."

Alka was not surprised when he saw this scene. His mother died here, most likely because she was attacked from behind.

It already shows that someone has arrived here, and the corresponding treasures cannot survive.

But obviously, the people who came here were in a hurry and did not search all the treasures very cleanly.

The remaining silver coins on the ground, as well as the two innermost boxes, were still shining with little golden light.

They all represent treasures, at least there is still some soup base left.

Alka immediately began to collect them.

One gold sail, one gold leaf, and six silver snakes.

In addition to this most intuitive currency, there are also two red gems about the size of a fingernail.

This is the remnant of the first batch of people.

The gold sail is a gold coin about half the size of a palm, with a sailboat engraved on it and a cross on the back.

Alka has never touched the actual object, not even in his memory, or even seen it, only heard the description.

I heard that only big businessmen would use such currency when making settlements.

One golden sail is worth about 25 silver snakes. It is said that there is almost no fluctuation in this exchange method.

There is also a gold leaf, which is a little bit smaller than the golden sail and much thinner than the golden sail.

It's really like a leaf.

Alka had seen this kind of gold leaf before, and their family also had one.

As an intermediate currency between Gold Sail and Silver Snake, the approximate conversion method is.

1 golden sail = 5 gold leaves = 25 silver snakes.

In other words, during this trip, 36 silver snakes were harvested.

This can be regarded as a fortune. At this moment, Alka can really say that he has made a fortune.

An ordinary family would never be able to afford so much wealth.

Hmm... Aunt Marcy's house might be able to get it.

Alka suddenly thought of something and was stunned.

He quickly took out the manual from the inner pocket of his clothes.

Turn to the map page.

"I'm just telling you, the scene just now affected my emotions and caused my thoughts to go wrong."

At this time, the blue light spot where he is currently on the map has not disappeared, nor has it dimmed.

"If the treasure is harvested by me, the light spot will be dimmed, and different information will appear when you click on it, but there is none at all now, which means the treasure is still there."

Alka couldn't help but think about it, although she didn't know the difference between blue and white light spots.

But according to normal thinking, blue must be stronger than white. At first, he thought that 36 silver snakes plus 2 small gems could be regarded as a blue treasure.

It seems likely not now.

Maybe even the first batch of treasure hunters here didn't find the real treasure.

"This is already the bottom of the cave. If there is anything that can be hidden besides these boxes, it must be a hidden compartment."

Alka couldn't help but hold up the torch and began to get closer to the stone wall to examine it carefully.

Turn the shovel upside down in your hand and use the handle to gently slide and tap.

First, start the inspection at the chest level of a normal adult person.

While walking, I would lightly tap my feet to check if there is any space under my feet.

I checked all the way to the bottom stone wall in the center of the cave, and with the sound of knocking, a crisp sound came from the area about the size of my head.

If you look carefully here, you can also find a small rectangular sign on it.

Perhaps due to time, it appears very vague and inconspicuous.

It's completely invisible unless you look closely.

This is the emblem of Jack's treasure hunting team.

A quincunx sign.

"This is it."

Alka's voice was a little excited, and she picked up the shovel and hit it hard.

After two heavy knocks, a few cracks appeared, and then two pieces of mud fell down.

Revealing the darkness inside.

A few more quick and heavy blows, completely revealing the hidden compartment inside.

The outline of a square box shimmered in Alka's eyes.

His expression was already excited.

"The last time I dug up a gold coin bag, there was also this outline of shimmer to highlight it, indicating that it was a treasure."

While thinking, he moved the torch in his hand closer.

This is a rectangular iron box with extremely rough textures. There is a card carved on the front and a tall top hat on it.

It represents who his master is.

After confirming that there was no problem, Aka reached out and took out the box.

"Good weight!"

This iron box has an astonishing weight. It doesn't look like a hollow heavy box at all, but a solid piece of iron.

He pulled it out heavily.

It must weigh at least fifty or sixty pounds. This is not a box at all, this is definitely a solid piece of iron.

Because there is no gap at all on it, it is just a piece of specially forged iron with patterns carved on it.

But the outline just now clearly told Alka that this was the treasure.

It is more valuable than the 36 silver snakes and two rubies combined.

But there is absolutely nothing visible from the appearance.

Just when Alka was about to open the map to check the harvest.

"Little Alka! Alka, where are you?"

"Alka~"

"..."
