Chapter 2369 Ningguta Old Town

Wang Zan discovered that you really have to taste this person slowly. Take Yu Hanqiu for example. When he first saw him in the Land Temple, his impression of the other person was that he was more intellectual, the feeling of a young woman in Jiangnan. But after learning about it these days, he found that the other person seemed to have revealed his true form.

This is not a derogatory term, mainly because the two may get along well with each other, and Yu Hanqiu has become a little woman since she was a young woman.

After leaving Changting, the road to Ussuri River and Hailang River is not very good. It took about an hour to spend more than 20 kilometers. The road conditions were bumpy and bends, so it was very tiring to drive.

The place they were going to is the old city of Ningguta, which was where General Bahai first stationed his barracks. Of course, his general's mansion was also here.

When I arrived at Ningguta Old Town at around 10 o'clock, it gave people a bad feeling. How to say it, it looked desolate, which looked like it was on the uninhabited Gobi Desert, but there were still towns around it. From the map, the nearest village, Ningguta Old Town, is only one or two kilometers away, but this place is so desolate that it is a bit unbelievable.

If you weren't vaguely seeing green rice fields and corn fields around the old city, you might realize whether you had traveled to the uninhabited land at once.

"Bang"

"Bang"

Wang Zan and Yu Hanqiu pushed open the car door and walked down. They stretched their muscles and bones. Yu Hanqiu yawned and beat his arm and said, "You can drive when you go back. This road is too tiring. I was thin again, and my bones were sore that I was so pressed."

"Pa" Wang Zan lit a cigarette and said, "Okay, who told you to come and join in the fun? This kind of running around is far from traveling. When I went to the Tibetan area, I often slept in the wind and had a panic in the open at night. I accidentally got surrounded by wolves. Fortunately, it is still relatively close to the town, so you can stick to it."

"You said, we are here now, what are we going to do next?" Yu Hanqiu said with a blank look.

"Search!" Wang Zan blew the ashes and put his hand on his eyes and knocked the desolate surroundings. "We don't need to search for the spots. We can roughly know where the area is in Ninggu Tower in the past, such as barracks and generals' mansions, and then we can judge where the underground palace can be."

Although the old city of Ningguta is deserted, the terrain is not too complicated. First of all, this is a plain area and you can basically see a rough idea at a glance. Secondly, most of the buildings in the old city have been destroyed, and the rest are dilapidated places.

The closest thing to the two of them was a dilapidated city wall, which was about one meter high and only seven or eight meters long. After more than two hundred years of wind and sun, it was already broken. Then there were a few more sections far away, and the rest were some collapsed houses.

Only in the middle of the old city ruins, there seem to be some broken buildings that can see the glory of the past.

If this old city is slightly better preserved and has value in utilization, it may have been developed as a tourist attraction in the early years. The only reason for not being developed is that it is too broken and the former important place of military garrison is no longer as hustle and bustle as before.

After Wang Zan and Yu Hanqiu looked around for a while, they got into the car and drove slowly from the outside. After about two hours, they finished a long circle, and then drove down a dirt road and walked towards the inside area.

"Can we find some clues by watching this?" Yu Hanqiu was so tired that he took out some water and food from the car and sat on the ground.

Wang Zan said: "This place is big or small. You can't really dig every place three feet to find Bahai's money warehouse, so you can only start from the details. If the details are found, we may be able to find where the underground palace is on the first day we come here. Without details, you may have a hard time finding it for a year or two."

"Where are the details?" Yu Hanqiu asked confusedly while gnawing on the bread.

Wang Zan also squatted down, picked up a bag of red sausage and tore it open it, and then put it in his mouth. He looked forward and said, "I want to wait until the evening to see it, and the details may appear."

Yu Hanqiu suddenly shivered, looked around the wilderness, and said helplessly: "Are you afraid to stay here until night?"

"Just do you think I can be afraid of? Which forensic doctor has ever seen who is afraid of the corpse..."

It was already past 1:00 when the two of them finished their meal, and then they walked around with their feet without driving. Yu Hanqiu felt that this was completely incompatible with the adventure he imagined, without any beauty or romance. Even if you are different from what you performed in the movie, you still have to be a bit the same, right?

The two of them were just strolling in the desolate wilderness, which was basically no different from a fool.

Because Ningguta is too far north, it is dark here due to the latitude. It is still bright in June at 7 or 8 o'clock, and it is already dark here around 6 o'clock.

At this time, a carriage suddenly came toward this side not far away. An old man seemed to be waving his whip on the car. After five or six minutes, the carriage arrived not far from them. The old man pulled the reins and stopped the car, then took out a shovel from the car, searched on the ground for a while, and then started digging.

The other party's actions made Wang Zan and Yu Hanqiu stunned. They then took a step and walked towards the opposite side. Wang Zan took out a cigarette from his body and lit one, then handed one to the old man and said, "Uncle, your surname is yours? What are you digging?"

"My surname is Ge, you two asked me what I dug? Didn't you come to find something?" The old man took the cigarette and put it on his nose and stuffed it into his mouth. Wang Zan helped him light it and asked, "We heard that this is the old city of Ningguta. Come and see it casually, what are you looking for?"

"I thought you were here to find a lot of money."

Big money is a local dialect in the Northeast. In fact, big money is copper coins. According to Mr. Ge, copper coins can often be dug out underground in the old city of Ningguta. Sometimes one or two pieces can be dug out, and the price is not accurate. If you don’t have any value, you can sell them for a few dollars. But it will not be a problem if you encounter scarce copper coins that cost tens of thousands of dollars.

"In addition to copper coins, what else have you dug out?" Wang Zan asked.
