Chapter 994

Left mountain smell speech a Zheng, he really didn't think Chu Chen give is such reason.

When it comes to the word "treasure", many people will think about it immediately. The dazzling gold, silver and jewelry are indeed capital, which makes people fantasize. And this is also the main plot of many martial arts novels, such as Jin Yong's "flying fox in snow mountain" and Liang Yusheng's "the shadow of knight errant".

Since ancient times, there have been many legends about the success of the treasure collection. But it is not clear that the treasure can be found according to the map.

However, generally speaking, no one knows how to find the treasure. Therefore, it is possible for someone to find the treasure in secret according to the treasure map.

Moreover, Zuoshan also thought that there is indeed a place in xiazhou where valuable treasures are buried. This place is the Three Gorges.

As we all know, there are many dangerous shoals in the Three Gorges waterway. The 660 km waterway from xiazhou to Shancheng has a drop of 120 meters, and there are 139 dangerous shoals that mainly hinder navigation. There are many accidents of ship sinking on the rocks.

In this section of waterway, some sections are full of rapids and dangerous shoals. In history, it is also famous for its twists and turns, lots of strange rocks, rapids and dangerous boating.

It is precisely because of the dangerous shoals in the Three Gorges waterway that numerous ships have sunk here for thousands of years. Among these sunken ships, many contain a large number of gold and silver treasures and precious cultural relics.

For example, the famous Yinwo beach was named for the fact that in ancient times, wealthy people from all over the world used to go there by boat, and the boat often capsized and killed people, and they were buried in the belly of the fish, and their gold and silver fell into the water.

However, due to the rapidity and danger of the current, as well as the limitation of capital and technology, these underwater cultural relics have not been excavated. As a result, they have accumulated and become a huge fortune.

It is said that people have picked up property there since the 1970s. That winter, after the Yangtze River entered the dry season, a large number of fish were blocked in Qingtan, locking the channel and returning to the state's fishing industry. The Department sent three people to dredge the fish and live in the villager Liu Laohan's home. Because of the lack of firewood for cooking in the morning, the three people went to the riverside to pick up wood.

During this period, a man suddenly fell in the river. When the other two people rushed to help him, they forcibly lifted a big "square brick" from under the water. The "square brick" was black and square. Later they knew that it was made of lead. It might be a mechanical device on the ship, but there were some other things.

For example, large silver ingots, silver ingots and smaller gold ingots, as well as some copper coins, were originally strings, but as soon as they were fished out, the rope broke immediately.

All along, there have been rumors of endless treasure at the bottom of the river, because this incident has been further confirmed. However, being frightened by the danger of flooding, only a few brave people went to salvage it, and there was no big harvest. It's over.

Thinking of this, Zuo Shan conjectured that Chu Chen's treasure map recorded these treasures. But when he thought about it, he thought it was wrong. The mountain area in front of them had nothing to do with the shipwreck treasure. Was it someone who fished out the treasure and buried it here?

Thinking of this, Zuo Shan couldn't help his curiosity and asked, "Chu Shao, what treasure are we looking for here? Is it the legendary treasure of sunken ships

Chu Chen was also stunned when he heard the speech. He said with a smile: "brother Zuo, what we are looking for is not hidden in xiazhou. As for what treasure we are looking for, I'll sell it first. Let's find the location of the treasure first."

Seeing that Chu Chen said so, Zuo Shan could only press down his curiosity and asked, "Chu Shao, which direction are we going now?"

"Wait a minute..."

As he said this, Chu Chen took out a simple map of the treasure he had painted. After that, he compared it carefully.

Zuoshan curiously came to observe for a moment, and found that the terrain depicted in the treasure map was at least 70% similar to the situation here. Considering the simplicity and distortion of the treasure map lines, this is already a very high proportion. He estimated that the place recorded on the treasure map should be almost here.

"Come on, let's get some information first." Chu Chen nodded with satisfaction, and then walked to a small mountain village not far away with only 20 or 30 families.

They asked an old man about the situation and found that there was a small temple on the mountain nearby before, just like the picture of treasure collection. However, it had already collapsed because it was in disrepair for a long time.

It doesn't matter to Chu Chen whether he collapses or not, as long as he can confirm that the treasure map is correct.

After saying goodbye to the old man, Chu Chen and Zuo Shan went to the location of the treasure marked on the treasure map.

As the old saying goes, Wangshan is a dead horse. The position on the map doesn't seem far away, but it almost killed chuchen and Zuoshan.

There's no way to get there. The road is full of shrubs and weeds. In addition, it's almost July now, and there are many poisonous insects in the mountains. Along the way, they all meet seven or eight poisonous snakes.

This is exactly the reason why Chu Chen didn't tell Wu Ke that he came to xiazhou to look for treasure. Otherwise, Wu Ke will surely come together because of curiosity. At that time, she can't afford to walk so many mountain roads. If she is injured by poisonous insects or snakes, it will be very dangerous.In this way, they walked for more than two hours and finally came to a small hill.

"This Chu Shao, is the treasure really buried here Zuo Shan looked at the scene in front of him and asked in a daze.

Chuchen also had a wry smile on his face and said, "this is the mark on the map. It shouldn't be wrong."

The reason why they have such an expression is that there has been a debris flow here, and nearly half of the valley is buried by boulders and soil. In this way, if the treasure is buried under the boulders and soil, it is difficult to operate without an excavator.

It really depends on chuchen and Zuoshan digging by hand. Even if it takes three or five months, you can't expect to dig out the treasure.

Moreover, depending on how difficult it is for them to get here on foot, the only way to drive the excavator in is by helicopter.

Chu Chen was so depressed that he said, "I don't know what's wrong with this piece of fire mud, and I don't want to find a cave. I can't believe that he's hiding the treasure in such an open place. Doesn't he want people to find it? Or is this treasure map a fake, a joke made by Zhang huoni? "

Chu Chen scratched his head in some distress, and then said, "no matter whether there is treasure or not, since we have come, we should always look for it."

However, they didn't take action immediately. They walked for more than two hours on the mountain road. No matter how strong their physical strength was, they were still a little tired. So they sat down first, drank some water, ate some dry food, and had a rest for more than 20 minutes before leaving for the middle of the mountain depression, where the treasure was marked on the map.

During this period, Chu Chen let go of his powers and explored whether there was any treasure around him. As a result, when he came near the center of the depression, he felt the treasure buried underground.

However, Chu Chen did not feel happy, because the underground treasure was not the imperial seal he wanted, but a few gold and silver ingots, which made him a little stunned immediately. Although these gold and silver ingots were valuable, they were not what he wanted at all. Moreover, with his economic strength, they were no less than a few gold and silver ingots.

"Are you so unlucky that you don't recognize the word that can't be reached, which is really the key clue to the treasure? Or did Zhang huoni never get the imperial seal? He just made it up. He came all the way to xiazhou, and finally he could only take a few gold and silver coins back? "

Although he didn't have much energy to write about the treasure of the kingdom of Chu, he didn't have much energy to write about it.

Seeing Chu Chen frowning and standing still, Zuo Shan asked, "Chu Shao, have you found anything?"

Of course, Chu Chen couldn't say that he was very disappointed because he found the underground treasure. He controlled his mood and said, "well, I have a clue. I think the place near the boulder should be where the treasure was buried."

Then Chu Chen pointed to the huge stone not far away.

Zuoshan looked in the direction that chuchen pointed out, and felt that it was the place in his impression, so he nodded subconsciously. However, he looked at the darkening sky and suggested that it was getting late. They should put up their tents first, have a rest for one night, and wait for the next morning to dig treasure.

Chuchen's previous preparations were quite adequate. He had prepared all the camping tools in advance, such as tents. Zuoshan was a little strange about this. He thought to himself, is chuchen going to play in the wild? I didn't expect that the wild is the wild, but it's not a game, it's a treasure hunt.

After all, Zuoshan was once the king of soldiers. Camping was like a routine for him. In addition, Chu Chen's hands-on ability was also very strong. They cooperated and soon built a temporary residence. In addition, in the wild, especially in the mountainous areas, we should guard against dangers such as poisonous insects and wild animals at night. Zuoshan also takes this into consideration.

In fact, Chu Chen had never spent the night in the wild before. If he had been in peacetime, he would have some strange feelings in his heart, but now his mind is full of treasure, so he doesn't care about them.

After getting up early in the morning to exercise, Chu Chen made a circle around the mountain. He told Zuo Shan that he wanted to find more clues in case there was no treasure in the place he said yesterday. In fact, he used his powers to detect the situation in the surrounding mountain walls.

As a result, Chu Chen felt very disappointed. Except for the gold and silver ingot he found yesterday, all the places he explored were as empty as wild. Let alone the imperial seal, he didn't find a copper coin.
