Chapter 561 The wolf is here!
Early the next morning after Executive Du left, Zhu Yu arranged for Ran Jie and the others to guard the oil field. Qin Fei took a few security guards to follow the experts to make calculations, and he followed Aria to the ruins in the desert to play.

Although Zhu Yu is still a little worried about the safety of the oil field because of Executive Du's words, it won't help the matter even if he worries about it now. Besides, from a normal point of view, no matter how much those ambitious guys covet the oil field, I'm afraid They will also be courteous before soldiers.

After all, this is not Libya, nor Syria.It is one of the members of OPEC.Within the same system, if these guys use force directly, they will really lose face.

For the time being, those guys don't want to tear off the fig leaf so quickly, and the war between Da Mao and Er Mao has involved their energy, so Zhu Yu is not in such a hurry at the moment.

Zhu Yu and the others left early. When the off-road vehicle arrived at the ruins, the sun had just come out and there was still some coolness in the air.

After getting out of the car, Aria pointed to the ruins not far away and said:

"It is said that these are the buildings left by the ancestors here more than 1000 years ago.

The main reason for the ruins was that the water source that originally formed the oasis here was cut off, which made the people here unable to continue to survive, so they left here in the end, and this place became an abandoned city. "

When Aria spoke, she was proud and emotional.

Looking at the past, the site is not big, almost the size of two football fields.A temple site in the center is considered the most complete, and the more it goes to the edge, the more it collapses and destroys.

What made Zhu Yu a little puzzled and curious was that these buildings were obviously made of stone, but the surrounding area was desert, and there were no places like stone mountains and quarries at all.

Could it be said that there were quarries in the past, but because no one was here, and because of the relatively strong wind and sand in the desert, the quarries were finally covered by the desert and disappeared.

Of course, these are just guesswork.

"Come on, let's go in and take a look." Aria pulled Zhu Yu's arm, and then let go quickly.

Zhu Yu could see that the backs of Aria's ears were turning red.

What a shy girl.

Walking all the way, the road is basically covered by sand, and occasionally there are some dead plants on it.Under some stones, lizards or snakes were startled and scurrying around, causing Arya to take a few steps back.

"I'm not afraid of these little things, I just didn't expect them to come out suddenly..." Aria looked at Zhu Yu who hurried a few steps to protect her, and explained in a low voice.

The bodyguards who came with Aria also rushed forward and began to clean up possible dangers on the road.

Zhu Yu and Aria walked side by side, looking left and right from time to time.

There are mostly shops on the left and right sides, and residential houses in the back yard.Looking at the past with the eyes of the sky, there are occasional metal products under the ruins, most of which are living utensils.

In this dry place, those metal living utensils are relatively well preserved, basically not rusting much.

Occasionally, traces of someone digging can be seen, but not many.

Looking at it with the eyes of the sky, there is indeed nothing worth digging here.

"Mr. Zhu, you used to be an expert in treasure hunting. Can you see that there are treasures here?"

"I can't see it." Zhu Yu shook his head, "Actually, this site itself is considered a treasure for historians. But maybe there are more similar sites in this desert, so people don't pay attention to it.

As for the treasure in terms of money, that one needs a good search to find it. "

The two talked while walking, and from time to time they would stop in front of a patterned wall that hadn't collapsed. At this time, Aria's expertise was brought into play.

She will introduce to Zhu Yu the meaning of these patterns in detail, and guess what the original building of this wall is.

This surprised Zhu Yu a little. She didn't expect this shy yet brave girl to have researched in this area.

It seems that women in these religious traditional countries should not be underestimated. They will also study some historical, literary and architectural knowledge as their hobbies.

Seeing the admiration in Zhu Yu's gaze, Aria immediately felt much better, and became more courageous. From time to time, she would take the initiative to share some knowledge about the ruins or the history of this country as she walked forward.

The ruins are not big, but within ten minutes, a few people walked near the central temple.

The temple is a square building, the original semi-dome on it has been broken, and only a few layers of masonry remain.Looking at the traces on it, birds once built nests on it, leaving some bird nests and impressions of bird droppings.

When Zhu Yu saw this, he remembered being naughty when he was a child, running to the wall of the once-abandoned Brigade Horse Courtyard, lifting up the bricks on the courtyard wall layer by layer, looking for the nests built by birds.

It was just naughty then, but now it’s cruel—companions would tear out the nests they found and take out the eggs or chicks inside to play with.

As for the future, it is definitely impossible to live.

And Zhu Yu still remembers very clearly that once when he climbed up the courtyard wall by himself, he saw a golden eagle as tall as a child on the highest point, and then he was scared away.

At that time, there were already legends that this thing could catch sheep or children and eat them.

Looking at the brick wall above inexplicably, he remembered this childhood memory.

The gaps in the brick walls shouldn't be able to accommodate birds, right?
Zhu Yu said with emotion, just as he was about to go over to see what was left in the temple, he found something in a nearby building out of the corner of his eye!

The temple is located in the center of the ruins. This small town has four roads, east, west, north, south, all leading to the temple in the center of the ruins.

And this location in the southeast corner is considered a golden location. It used to be a two-story stone building.But now only half a layer is left.

There are still traces of excavation in the outer area, and some metal fragments fell near the excavation pit.

This building should have been the house of a rich family or a very lively shop in the past.

Because looking at it with the eyes of the sky, there are some copper and even silver pieces scattered everywhere below.Although some people used metal detectors to dig out some, the scattered ones still add up to a lot.

Of course, the reason why Zhu Yu noticed it was mainly because there were several hidden compartments in the wall of the building that hadn't been completely broken.

And there are some gold and silver products hidden in the secret compartment, including coins, ornaments, decorations and some utensils.

Was it because they didn't have time to take it away at the beginning, or did the group of people who left didn't know that there was a hidden compartment in the wall, and there was something in the dark compartment?

"Mr. Zhu, what's the matter?" Aria asked suspiciously when she saw Zhu Yu stopped and looked to the side.

"There should be some treasures in there." Zhu Yu pointed there and said, "But if you look for it, you may destroy the wall."

"Look for it, I haven't seen a real treasure digging site yet!" Aria immediately became excited when she heard this, "I even asked someone to bring tools!"

She pointed to the back, and sure enough, a bodyguard walked over quickly with a bag of tools.

The bodyguard did not speak, but showed Zhu Yu the tools one by one.

"Can we dig now?" Zhu Yu asked Aria.

"Of course it's fine!" Arya dragged him in, "As long as the temple isn't destroyed. Everything else has been weathered for so long, so it can't be protected here, and if it is destroyed, it will be destroyed."

Since the owner was so generous, Zhu Yu was naturally not polite, picked a flat-head shovel from the bag in the female bodyguard's hand, carried it in her hand and walked towards the incomplete wall.

As soon as Zhu Yu came up, he didn't immediately head towards the dark room, but hit the wall with a flat-headed shovel from the very beginning.

As the flat-end spade tapped a little bit, the sound changed.

Arya was a little puzzled at first, but she soon realized that the sound in a certain place was different from other places, and it seemed a bit empty.

"It's right here." Zhu Yu lightly tapped a hidden compartment with a flat-headed shovel, "It should be empty inside, probably for hiding things."

"How do you know?" Aria leaned over, took the flat-headed shovel in Zhu Yu's hand and tapped it there, and felt that there was indeed a hollow inside by the vibration of the hand.

"The wall here is wider than other places." Zhu Yu said, "Compared with other places, this wall is obviously a bit inappropriate. It's too wide."

"Have you noticed this detail?" Ariya was amazed, and then compared it, and found that the wall was not an outer wall, but it was very thick, which was obviously unreasonable.

Zhu Yu smiled reservedly amidst the amazed eyes, then took the flat-headed shovel and began to break through the wall.

"Look again, there should be more than one compartment in this wall." Zhu Yu said to the others while breaking the wall.

"I'm coming!" Aria immediately took a shovel and knocked on it.

Zhu Yu quickly broke through a layer of stone bricks, revealing a dark mass inside.

With a flat-tipped shovel, the lump was pulled out, and when it fell on the sand, it fell apart.

It turned out to be cloth.But this thick cloth has been weathered after being in the wall for so long—obviously, the wall is not so closed.

Gold coins were exposed from the spread cloth, and the number was at least one or two hundred.

The few people who did not participate in knocking on the wall immediately showed even more amazed expressions-there is really a treasure!

These people looked at Zhu Yu with eager eyes.And Zhu Yu became even more mysterious in their eyes.

"I found it!" Aria suddenly exclaimed, "It's here too!"

When she exclaimed, she looked at Zhu Yu, and then saw the gold coins scattered on the ground.

"You really found the treasure!" Aria threw away the shovel and walked over, knelt down and looked at it and said:

"These are gold coins from the time of the Roman Empire. They are not very rare, but in the eyes of certain collectors, these are treasures, and there are so many of them!"

"There may be even more valuable treasures in your place!" Zhu Yu said with a smile, "Let's have a look."

"Okay!" Aria agreed, but then said: "Pack up your things first."

"Leave it to them." Zhu Yu pointed to Amina and another bodyguard and said, "Go and see what you have there."

Aria smiled at Zhu Yu: "Okay!"

With Zhu Yu's help, Aria broke through the layer of stone bricks, and then saw a larger space than where Zhu Yu broke through.

There are bowls, plates and other utensils made of gold and silver layered on top of each other, there are dozens of them at least!
"His Royal Highness, congratulations!" Zhu Yu said with a smile, "These sets of gold and silver tableware are very valuable - they still look brand new."

Aria was also very happy, and carefully took out two gold wine jugs and wine glasses inlaid with rubies, holding them in her hands and admiring them.

Such a flagon alone can be exchanged for at least one hundred thousand dollars.

There are so many exquisite things here!

Then they opened the third hidden compartment, which contained some women's gold ornaments, also inlaid with precious stones.

Zhu Yu made a rough estimate.These things add up to a total of two or three million US dollars.

It may be higher!

I really didn't expect to find so many valuable things in any ruins in this desert!
Of course, I also want to thank the treasure hunters who came here before, they don't have the habit of looking for treasures in the walls.

After asking the bodyguards to wrap up and carry their things, Aria and Zhu Yu entered the ruined temple for a visit.

There are no statues in the temple, but there are many murals on the surrounding walls.

These murals have been destroyed by the wind and sand, leaving only a few lines.

These lines are still more vivid, Zhu Yu is a little curious, what kind of paint can be used for such a long time without losing its original color.

Aria said regretfully:

"These murals should be very precious works of art, but it's a pity that they can't be seen clearly now."

"The people who painted these things did not expect that one day, this place will be abandoned, the temple will be destroyed, and the wind and sand will blow in from outside and destroy this place."

The layout of the temple is based on the largest place of worship, followed by some places for living and preaching.

Aria probably became addicted to it after finding the treasure earlier, and tapped the flat-headed shovel in her hand on the wall from time to time, hoping to find something.

It's a pity that after visiting the entire temple, nothing was found.

After visiting the temple and finding the treasure, it would be meaningless to go any further.The sun has also risen, and the temperature in the ruins is gradually rising. After the two discuss it, let's just go back.

When they got in the car, they turned on the air conditioner, gusts of cool wind dissipated the heat, and the few people settled down.

"These are all yours." Aria pointed to those things in the trunk and said to Zhu Yu.

"No no no." Zhu Yu waved his hand, "The gold coins are mine. The others are not mine."

"You're wrong..." Aria blushed and wanted to argue.

"When I hunt for treasure, I usually go with my friends. We always count on whoever finds it." Zhu Yu said solemnly:

"Just like today, if my friend and I are together, the ownership of the things in the secret box is all based on luck. Whoever finds it will own it. In this way, there will be no disputes."

Aria was a little puzzled, but finally acquiesced to this explanation.

In fact, she also knew that this should be regarded as a thank you gift from Zhu Yu to herself, but this thank you gift was so gifted that people couldn't say anything else.

The off-road vehicle was driving forward, and two pickup trucks rushed over from the front left, spotted them first, deviated from the original direction, and outflanked the off-road vehicle.

Soon, the pickup truck forced the off-road vehicle to stop beside the sandbag.

Five hooded men got out of the pickup truck and walked to the off-road vehicle. The leader knocked on the window and signaled the driver to lower the glass. He had something to say.

"Princess, Mr. Zhu, don't be afraid. This car is bulletproof." Amina whispered.

The two bodyguards had already drawn out their guns, and Arina also took out a small pistol.

Aria leaned towards Zhu Yu, but said:
"What are these people trying to do? Is this a robbery?"

Zhu Yu was not worried at all, he guessed:

"It should be to go to the ruins to hunt for treasure. Seeing which direction we are coming from, so I have to ask."

The bodyguard turned to look at the instructions, Zhu Yu said:

"Come down and tell them we're tourists."

The bodyguard pulled the trigger and loaded the bullet, then lowered half of the glass, and said coldly to the people outside:
"What do you want to do?"

"It's nothing. We saw that you came from that direction, and we wanted to ask if you had entered a ruin."

"It has nothing to do with you." The bodyguard was probably used to being strict and didn't intend to show favor to anyone. "Get out of the way, or we won't be polite!"

The man's face changed slightly, and then he saw the gun that the bodyguard showed.

"We are tourists, and we just play in the desert." Zhu Yu didn't want to make things stand still, he knew that these people must have guns.

Although the car was bulletproof, it was full of women, so it was hard to say in a fight - he had seen with his celestial eyes that the other party had an RPG in the car, and if he wanted to use it, even a bulletproof car wouldn't be safe!

"I didn't find anything in it."

Hearing what Zhu Yu said, the expression in the man's eyes changed, he took two steps back, and said:

"Well, I wish you a happy time!"

Then he turned his head and motioned for his own people to move the car out of the way.

The female bodyguard raised the glass of the car and drove away with full speed.

"Boss, why don't you keep them?" someone asked in the pickup truck.

"Don't make extra troubles. This kind of car is not affordable for ordinary people. If we really mess with people we shouldn't, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to make a living in this area in the future!"

Soon, they came to the ruins, and then went straight to the temple.

Although some people saw the traces left by Zhu Yu and the others when they demolished the wall, in their eyes, it was nothing.

They are mainly looking for things in the temple.

Soon, the men were digging in the temple.

After a while, suddenly, screams and gunshots rang out in the temple.

Looking from a distance, a large piece of black crows gushed out of the temple!
After Zhu Yu and the others got away from the pickup truck, they sped up and left here, and it didn't take long before they returned to the oil field.

To Zhu Yu's surprise, when he came back, he found that there were already many people in the oil field.

Those people who started to gather yesterday have already arrived at the oil field today!
This effect is really no one else!
Looking at these vigorous young men in camouflage uniforms and short cropped hair, Zhu Yu immediately gained confidence.

I have someone, who dares to come and find fault?
I can't kill you!
