Chapter 25: Dark Cave Treasures

Zhou Hao floated his head out of the water, looked up at the starry sky, and thought to himself: "Is the map drawn by Ye Feng just a mess?"

It seems that my master was probably wasting his efforts! Thinking of this, Zhou Hao slapped the river heavily in anger.

The turbid river water splashed high and splashed Zhou Hao's head and face, and even a little poured into his mouth.

"Puff!" Zhou Hao opened his mouth and spit out the river water full of mud and sand, and prepared to go ashore and give up this treasure hunt.

"Wait, mud and sand!" Zhou Hao had just climbed onto the shore, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, as if he had grabbed something!

"Silt, mud!" Zhou Hao lowered his head and muttered to himself, his eyes flashed with a flash of light, and he suddenly realized.

Zhou Hao, who seemed to have some connection with something, had a hint of joy on his face. He picked up a thick dead branch ten feet long from the shore and sneaked into the river again.

As soon as he dived into the bottom of the water, Zhou Hao poked the thick branches in his hand into the area he had just explored.

The thick mud at the bottom of the river, accompanied by Zhou Hao's continuous stirring, large streams of surging up, and the already turbid river water suddenly turned into a ball of mud.

After a while, Zhou Hao, who kept poking the bottom of the river with branches, suddenly felt a lighter in his hand, as if something had been pierced by him in one fell swoop!

Zhou Hao, who was overjoyed, quickly threw down the branches in his hand and digged them up at the bottom of the river with both hands.

In a blink of an eye, the mud within half a radius was completely cleared by Zhou Hao, revealing a dark and deep hole!

Zhou Hao did not rush into the hole, but floated out of the water. He took a few deep breaths before he plunged in.

In fact, there is indeed a dark hole under the bottom of the water! It’s just that there is no artificial cleaning, and the mud and sand brought by the river gradually deposited at the entrance of the cave. After a full six years, the accumulated mud and sand have completely sealed the entrance of the cave!

It's no wonder that Zhou Hao could not find the entrance blocked by the mud by just touching his hands. Until a little turbid river water carrying mud and sand surged into his mouth, Zhou Hao's inspiration flashed and he figured out the key points.

Besides, after Zhou Hao drilled into the dark cave under the water, he found that the entrance to the dark cave was small, but the bigger it became! And according to the trend of the dark cave, the terrain should be gradually rising and spreading into the abdomen of the mountain around the Xue Jiaowu.

Zhou Hao sneaked into sixty or seventy feet in one breath in a dark cave. Just as the air in his lungs was about to run out, he suddenly felt his head empty!

I looked up and swept around. It was pitch black, without any light. I couldn't see clearly what the situation was, but I had undoubtedly floated out of the bottom of the water.

Zhou Hao stepped on the bottom of the water with his feet, and was like a blind man, groping forward, feeling that the water level was getting lower and lower, and finally stepped onto the hard shore.

Zhou Hao took out a while in his arms, took out a pocket of oil paper that was filled with water, and took out a flint and a fire broker from it.

"Chi Chi Chi Chi!" After igniting the fire broker with flint, Zhou Hao, who was completely blind, finally had a light in his eyes.

Although the light was weak, it was enough for Zhou Hao to see the surrounding situation.

This is a small cave, only about ten feet in size, and the entrance to the cave is completely submerged in the water. On the open space beside the water, there is a platform made of pebbles and a length of only two feet wide.

This platform is three or four meters high, which should be used to prevent the treasures in the cave from being flooded when the river rises. On the platform, it is quietly lying in seven or eight huge iron boxes.

Seeing the huge iron box on the platform, Zhou Hao's heart was pounding involuntarily, and an ecstatic expression appeared on his face.

Holding the fire note, Zhou Hao rushed up to the platform in a few steps, looking at the dark iron box, the joy on his face became even stronger.

These eight huge iron boxes were tightly wrapped by thick iron chains, and on the iron chains, they were locked tightly with large locks.

But this could not stump Zhou Hao! He reached out to hold the big lock, and exhaled the strength in his palm, and with a "click!", the thick lock head was broken into two pieces.

Removed the big lock and iron chain, Zhou Hao reached out and lifted the first iron box.

"Huh!" Once the iron box was opened, the entire cave room suddenly lit up! Zhou Hao suddenly felt the light in front of him. He had been in the dark for a long time and narrowed his eyes very uncomfortable and looked into the iron box.

The eyes were filled with a dazzling yellow luster!

A large iron box was filled with neatly sized gold bars! The dazzling golden light of yellow shines brightly on the entire cave!

Each gold bar is length of the middle finger, width of the two fingers, and thick of one and a half fingers. Hold it in your hand and weigh it slightly, and it weighs one pound!

Zhou Hao slightly estimated that such a large iron box had at least three thousand gold bars inside! In other words, there were 30,000 taels of gold in this box, worth 300,000 taels of silver!

Zhou Hao secretly smacked his tongue, 300,000 taels of silver! He could buy 10,000 acres of fertile land, and he would be rich everywhere he went!

Suppressing the surging and thrilling heart, Zhou Hao shot a second iron box!

Still a full box of gold!

The third iron box is still full of gold!

The fourth mouth...

The fifth mouth...

The sixth mouth...

Zhou Hao opened six iron boxes in a row, and each mouthful was filled with gold!

The six iron boxes with yellow and golden light shine brightly on the entire cave!

A full gold worth 1.8 million taels of silver is enough to make anyone crazy!

After opening six treasure chests in a row, Zhou Hao was shocked six times in a row. He even became a little numb and murmured: "Are these water bandits all in love with Jin? Why don't there be any other treasures except Jinzi?"

While speaking, Zhou Hao walked to the seventh iron box and opened the box as he copied it.

This time, it's finally not gold!

Inside the iron box was filled with six small wooden boxes, and Zhou Hao opened the six small wooden boxes one by one.

The first wooden box was filled with a box of round pearls the size of longan. Zhou Hao roughly counted it and there were more than 200 pieces!

The second wooden box was filled with hundreds of red, yellow, blue, purple and green, colorful gems!

In the third wooden box, there are more than a dozen pieces of crystal clear jade!

The fourth wooden box contains three arms, all the same hair and hair, and even ginseng that has vaguely transformed into human faces!

In the fifth wooden box, there was a night pearl the size of a fist!

In the sixth wooden box, there were actually three hundred silver notes with a denomination of 1,000 taels!

Although Zhou Hao doesn’t know about jewelry, his approximate value is still estimated. The value of each small wooden box is no less than that of a large box of gold, and it is even more than that!

Not to mention anything else, those three hundred thousand taels of silver notes are just worth a box of gold!

Among these treasures, the three ginseng and the night pearl are the most valuable, at least far exceeding the value of a box of gold.
