The richest man starts from the treasure hunt in the container

The wind and sand were getting bigger and bigger, and the off-road vehicle had to stop at a small hill after driving dozens of kilometers.

"This car is ruined." Cao Dalong in the car sighed and said as he heard the sound of bullets hitting the shell of the car outside.

"Let's think about it first, how can we get through this sandstorm again safely." Ran Jie lay on the window glass, squinting his eyes and looking out:

"It doesn't feel safe here either. The upwind sand is piling up here, and when it's higher than the off-road vehicle, we'll be buried."

"There are animals hiding outside." Qin Fei leaned over the glass and looked out, "I don't know if it's a wolf or something else. There are more than a dozen wild animals. It seems that their eyes are green."

"Wolves, hyenas, and sand foxes," Zhu Yu looked out through the eyes of the sky, and said:

"Under the power of nature, these animals no longer care about attacking each other. It is safe here for the time being. At least in the desert, they know better than us where they can escape the wind and sand safely."

The wind and sand continued until the middle of the night before it stopped slowly, and the off-road vehicle was already more than half stuck in the sand on the side of the upwind vent.

The small animals that escaped from the wind and sand here have disappeared without a trace.

After Zhu Yu and the others got out of the car, they only saw some sand scorpion lizards, preparing to flee in panic.

After taking out the tools, several people quickly cleaned the sand beside the car to ensure that the car can drive out normally.

At this time, the sky slowly turned white.

"Let's not go now, just put up a tent on the roof of the car, rest and eat well before we start." Zhu Yu looked around and made this decision.

In such an unfamiliar environment, after experiencing a sandstorm just now, no one knows what will happen next, so they must maintain sufficient physical strength at all times, and several people are very clear about this.

They quickly pitched the tent, covered the car and left enough room to move around, and started eating.

No one said much, and after eating, they pulled out the sleeping bag under the tent and began to rest.

Zhu Yu couldn't sleep, nor was he tired, so he planned to take advantage of this time to take a look around.

This small pocket was covered with sand and became the largest sand dune in the vicinity.

Zhu Yu slowly climbed up the sand dune and looked into the distance.

The sun has not yet risen, without the influence of direct sunlight, the field of vision is very wide.Looking back, I can no longer see where I came from.Zhu Yu looked to the southwest, wanting to see how far away his destination was.

To his surprise, less than 1 kilometer away from here, there is a large area composed of hundreds of sand dunes.

The outlines of those sand dunes are like a sand table magnified many times, with a square city wall and some prominent buildings.

Is that the place I was looking for?

After all, the sand dunes in other places are layered like waves.

Only the sand in that area is completely different from other places.

"You guys rest here first, I'll go to a distance to take a look." Zhu Yu said to Ran Jie, then jumped off the sand dune and walked over there.

"Boss, be careful." Ran Jie reminded.

"Don't worry, it's a pity that I'm dead." Zhu Yu joked, and strode towards that place.

The sun has not yet risen, the air is not very hot, and small animals and even insects can be seen everywhere on the sand for food or escape.

There are also poisonous things like vipers lying in wait under the sand.

Along the way, there are many dangers.

Near the suspected ruins of the ancient city, Zhu Yu came across a large piece of quicksand again.

From the surface, this piece of quicksand does not look much different from other places, and there are many animal paw prints nearby.

In fact, through the eyes of the sky, Zhu Yu could see many large and small animals sunken under the quicksand, and there were some human bones in more places.

He thought for a while, and in a safe place around the quicksand, he made small marks with sand and wrote the word "Danger".

In order not to wait for Ran Jie and the others to chase after them, if they step on it, it will be a big trouble.

Bypassing this expanse of quicksand, Zhu Yu arrived at the suspected ruins.

After coming here, Zhu Yu was even more sure that whether this was the destination he was looking for or not, at least it was indeed the ruins of an ancient city.

What made Zhu Yu a little puzzled was that, similar to the opening of the gate of the ancient city, there were two dog-headed statues of Anubis, the god of death in ancient Egypt, sitting on their stomachs!

what's the situation?When did the grim reaper become a gatekeeper?
In the film and television programs, didn't the statues of Anubis that Zhu Yu had seen were all standing with weapons?

These two statues of Anubis are lying on a stone platform nearly two meters high.Now both the stone platform and the statue are incomplete.

The Anubis on the right even has only half of his head left, with his mouth exposed.

On the left, Anubis still has everything except his ears.

Zhu Yu looked around, but did not find anything like a stone mountain, but both the statue at the entrance and the walls on both sides of the statue were made of huge square stones.

Where did these stones come from?

It can be seen from the traces buried in the sand in the building that the site is relatively square.The road at the gate leads all the way to the opposite exit. Zhu Yu is surprised that, from here, it can be seen that there is no temple in the center of the city.

On the contrary, there is a high platform in the northwest corner of the site, which is suspected to be a pyramid.

But no matter what kind of building it is, there is a layer of sand on it at this moment, and Zhu Yu needs to explore the specific things step by step.

After walking in for less than ten meters, I finally discovered that under the sand on the main road, there were two fallen corpses—mummy.

Judging from the clothes on the corpse, they should be adventurers who have come here in recent years.

Zhu Yu guessed that the cause of death might be poisoning or burial by wind and sand.

After all, there were no muzzles or other large wounds on his body.

Further on, four more bodies were found.

How did these adventurers die on this road?

And judging from the direction of the fall, they all fell down when they were planning to run out.

Could something be chasing them?
Zhu Yu looked left and right, and he was puzzled to find that there were also bones in the incomplete buildings on both sides.In these buildings, although the daily utensils are destroyed, at least the fragments are still there.

And there are many gold and silverware in it!
From the architectural point of view, this is obviously an ordinary house.

Is this branch of ancient Egypt so arrogant?There are so many gold and silverware in ordinary people's homes!

From the eyes of heaven, there are at least seven silverware and two goldware in the house of this family of four!
How could ordinary people be so rich in those days?
Zhu Yu was really surprised!
He continued to walk forward, and then found buildings on both sides of the road—basically every house had bones.

This basically confirms that the ruins of this ancient city were destroyed suddenly, most likely because of a strong sandstorm.

Some of these bones are complete mummies, and some have been mutilated.But basically everything in the house is there, and every house has gold and silver wares in varying quantities.

On the contrary, other daily necessities look relatively simple.

Zhu Yu already had some guesses in his mind, and he continued to walk until he reached the center of the city. This guess was basically confirmed.

The central area of ​​the city belongs to the kind of houses with relatively luxurious buildings and relatively rich furnishings.

These people have more utensils under the wind and sand in their homes, and the proportion of gold utensils is still very large.

In the backyard of a shop, Zhu Yu even found nearly forty or fifty pieces of gold and silver utensils!

If it weren't for the fact that Tianyan never made a mistake, Zhu Yu would even think that he was wrong!

Along the way, there are almost four or five hundred pieces of gold and silver utensils in the rooms on both sides!

Although these gold and silver utensils are not big in size, the ones made are relatively thin, and the biggest ones are only plates and bowls, but the total weight is tens of kilograms!
Calculated in this way, how many gold and silver products are hidden in this city!
Could this be the legendary Golden City?

Zhu Yu walked roughly in other directions and found that the situation was the same.

He finally reached the high platform in the northwest corner of the city.

The high platform is about 20 meters above the surface of the sand. It can be seen from the part that is not completely covered that it is a stepped stone platform.

There are two symmetrical square stone houses beside the high platform.

At this time, only about half a meter of the top of the stone house was exposed, and it was covered by sand.

Looking at the stone house with the eyes of the sky, there is a very strange statue.

This statue is made of black stone, a man with his head up to the sky straddling his legs, holding up a huge gold plate in his hand.

There are more than a dozen pyramids, large and small, under his feet!

There is a step down below the statue.You should be a Chamber of Secrets.

It's just that because the sky eye can see the distance of the underground is limited, so it can't see what is under this secret room.

Zhu Yu quickly climbed up to the high platform that was suspected to be a pyramid, looked back towards Ran Jie and the others, and found that no one was coming.

After thinking for a while, he got off the high platform again, took out the shovel from the space, and started digging up the sand at the door of the stone house.

The sand was very soft, and Zhu Yu quickly cleaned out the layer of sand above the door of the house.

Then I saw the broken door opening and the sand that kept drilling in.

Zhu Yu estimated the size of the door opening, and then dug down for a while. Feeling that he could get in, he put away the shovel, bent down and got into the door opening.

Sliding down on the sand, it appeared at the foot of the statue.

Entering the room, one can see that the statue is more than three meters high: How could there be such a large black stone mine in that era?

Zhu Yu looked at the statue and found that it was placed in this room together with the base. He stepped forward to touch it and put the statue into the space.

After the statue disappeared, it revealed the entrance to a cave hidden below.

Zhu Yu looked at the rest of the room, and found that there was nothing else in it except for a rotten wooden bed and a small table.

very clean.

He stepped on the steps in the cave and walked down.

The steps are not very steep, but there are many steps, and it can be seen that they are going down in a rotation.

The further you go down, the more humid the ground is. After a few minutes, it hasn't reached the bottom yet, but water droplets have begun to seep from the wall next to it.

Continuing to turn and go down, the air slowly dries up again—Zhu Yu guessed that there must be a vent down here, otherwise, the air would not be so fresh.

At least it doesn't smell bad.

Finally reaching the bottom, Zhu Yu found that at the end of the steps was a flat space with a door on the left and right.

The two stone gates were tightly closed, but Zhu Yu couldn't help it.

Behind the stone door on the left is a vat of black liquid. I don't know whether it is because the stone door is sealed or the liquid itself is not easy to volatilize, so now the liquid in the tank has only dropped a little.

There was something wrong with this liquid at first glance, Zhu Yu observed carefully, and immediately found that the bottom and sides of the stone door, apart from being sealed by something, there was also a large amount of white phosphorus stuck to it!
As long as the door is forced to open, if you rub it, it will catch fire immediately!

Needless to say, those liquids are definitely flammable, these designers are cruel enough!

He looked at the Shimen on the right again, and found that it was full of sand behind it!

Heaped all the way to the top!
The stone gate also opens outwards, as long as it is opened, a large amount of sand will immediately pour out from inside!

The height of the stone gate is almost three meters - and the stone gate is easy to open - it seems that as long as someone tries to open the gate, it will be a disaster immediately!

Could it be that after walking down for so long, are there two doors of disaster hidden here?

It's not in line with common sense!

Zhu Yu looked carefully at the open space again, and finally found that there was a small space under the stone steps.

And on the wall of this space, there is a very imperceptible door!

There is a great mystery behind this door!

When ordinary people come here, they will definitely choose from the two conspicuous stone gates at the first time, and will naturally ignore the small gate under the steps.

No matter which door you enter, what awaits you is death, so it is naturally impossible to pay attention to this small door.

Zhu Yu sighed secretly, this designer is really cruel!
He turned to the small door, bent down and slowly pushed it hard.

The little door was just pushed open!
Behind the door is a rather large space.

But at this time, the space has been filled to the brim, leaving only a very narrow passage.

On both sides of the aisle, there are boxes made of lightly scented wood!

Looking at the past with the eyes of the sky, these boxes are full of gold and silver products, including tableware, wine utensils, accessories, and the most are gold and silver coins!

Here, there are dozens of boxes of gold coins!
Zhu Yu suddenly understood a little bit why there were so many gold and silverware in the homes of those ordinary people outside—maybe the people who migrated here carried the most things with them!
The excitement gradually calmed down, and Zhu Yu started to put away the boxes as he walked in.

Gold coins are irregular round shapes with no patterns on them.

There are some patterns on the tableware and accessories, but they are not very complicated.

The boxes on both sides were stacked very high, and Zhu Yu had to be careful when putting them away, lest the boxes on top would fall down due to instability.

It was only after receiving the innermost part that Zhu Yu discovered the difference again.

In the innermost part of this space, a small space was specially opened, and there were no boxes around it.

There is a rectangular stone platform in the center of this space, on which is a golden statue about half a person tall. The statue is very strange, with a round head, a box on its back, two feet standing upright, and a long statue in its hand. Something like a stick.

To Zhu Yu's surprise, Tianyan looked over, and inside the golden statue was a fist-sized ball—made of diamond.

In this diamond ball, Zhu Yu's sky eyes felt an indescribably massive amount of energy!
But the golden statue outside perfectly shielded this energy - it didn't escape at all!
The energy in this diamond ball is much more than that in those crosses and golden statues that Zhu Yu obtained before!
Zhu Yu was immediately surrounded by a great sense of happiness!
It took several minutes before he calmed down.

Continue to look at other things.

Next to the statue are pieces of gold plates with densely packed small characters engraved on them.

These characters are somewhat cuneiform, but they are different from the ones Zhu Yu saw on the Internet, and they are more pictographic - the feeling of compatibility between the two.

There is a box under the stone platform, which contains a whole box of gems of various colors.

Zhu Yu guessed that this should be an offering?

Unable to understand, Zhu Yu simply put away all these things, and then he was relieved, turned and left the space.

Bending down and walking out, Zhu Yu gently closed the small door, glanced at the two dangerous doors, and then went up.

Stepping up the spiraling stone steps, Zhu Yu walked all the way to the upper platform room, and finally felt relieved.

He was always worried that the two stone doors would suddenly open due to some kind of movement, which might cause trouble.

I don't know if there will be any chain reaction?
Drilling out of the sand, the sun outside had risen for a while, and the heat wave in the air had also intensified a bit.

Zhu Yu looked at the stone platform - in the middle of the stone platform there was also a passage extending down, and there were many turns.

Is there some secret here?
And in the stone room on the other side, is there a hidden treasure?
Zhu Yu didn't intend to visit anymore.

Although not physically tired, I feel mentally tired.

He thought for a while and walked down the street in the other direction.

I plan to walk out of the ruins from the other side, check the situation on both sides, and then when Ran Jie and the others come over, I will take them to explore again.

The breeze gradually picked up, and the sand slowly moved, slowly smoothing away the marks that Zhu Yu had stepped on.

Tianyan looks to both sides at any time, and this side is basically similar to the things encountered on the street when he came here.

"what?"

When Zhu Yu passed a building, he stopped suddenly.

This building is obviously much stronger than other buildings.Other buildings are built with some mixture of stone and wood, but here it is completely stone.

So keep more of them.relatively prominent.

The reason Zhu Yu stopped was because of the things left in the building, which surprised him a little.

This is... an ancient bank? (end of this chapter)
