The richest man starts from the treasure hunt in the container

Chapter 655 Antarctic ruins!

Zhu Yu was not the only one to discover this. Many people on the deck were watching, and soon some people exclaimed.

More people rushed onto the deck and began to look into the distance.

Zhu Yu took out a telescope and looked into the distance.

There were some black boulders exposed where it was covered with ice and snow.The shape of these black boulders resembles some square buildings, which is very puzzling.

Seeing that the icebreaker was sailing in this direction, Zhu Yu wondered whether this was really a ruins.

"Handsome guy, can you lend me your telescope?" Next to him, a woman touched Zhu Yu's arm and said.

Zhu Yu turned around and looked over. The woman was 26 or seven years old, white, less than 1.7 meters tall, slightly fat, very beautiful, wearing a woolen hat with sunglasses stuck on it, and spoke to Zhu Yu in a very natural tone.

"Here you go." Zhu Yu handed her the telescope.

The woman looked at it for less than a minute, then handed the telescope back to Zhu Yu and said with a smile:

"The quality of this telescope is very good. By the way, hello, my name is Judy." The woman stretched out her hand.

"My name is Tang Wenyang." Zhu Yu reached out and shook her hand, "I study biology."

"I'm an archaeological expert." The woman was very confident, "I'm afraid there won't be many places for you to work on this trip."

Zhu Yu shrugged his shoulders, put away the telescope, and said nothing.

The icebreaker sailed until it stopped several kilometers away from the black boulder.

The thickness of the ice here has exceeded the limit that the icebreaker can break, so next, we need to disembark.

Sure enough, after a while, the staff came over to inform:

"All hands on deck!"

In the large conference room, Zhu Yu found that there were a lot fewer people here.The original group of people who looked like security personnel were not there, only the recruited technicians and staff were there.

Nancy was wearing thick clothes, her face was still serious, her hair was pulled up, and she said into the microphone:
"Next, we have to disembark. The equipment will be taken away by crawler tractors, and the personnel will move forward on motorboats and tractors. There is no need to worry about supplies.

Let me reiterate, we are about to enter the working phase.At this stage, no one is allowed to use any excuse to stop the progress of the work, otherwise, you will not be able to shoulder the responsibility! "

After saying that, he left the venue.

Just two sentences to get everyone together?

"Okay, pack your things quickly!" A staff member said loudly, "Don't bring anything that is not necessary! Try to pack as lightly as possible!"

That's what he said, but when it came time to get off the boat, Zhu Yu found that everyone was basically carrying a big bag.

In this strange team, everyone trusts themselves the most.

Looking at Zhu Yu's little bag, some people had strange expressions, while others were indifferent.

Stepping on the ice, Zhu Yu finally felt solid.

Even though their eyes were opened, they had not really reached land yet, but it was still much better than dangling on the boat.

Crawler tractors and ice motorboats were hoisted down, and then the equipment was loaded, the personnel pulled on, and drove to the location of the black boulder in the distance.

Several deep track marks were left on the ice.

There was no sea breeze at this time, but Zhu Yu estimated that the temperature was at least minus [-] degrees, which would freeze a person to death in a short time.

Naturally, there is no such problem with his winter clothes.The electric-heated down coat from China keeps Zhu Yu in a relatively warm state.

The short staff member next to him felt more uncomfortable. He was shrinking his neck and rubbing his hands from time to time. He was obviously very cold.

The man's companion whispered comforting words:

"It will be nice to wait until we reach the target point. By then, prefabricated houses will be built, and it will be much more comfortable to live in."

Zhu Yu turned his head and looked at the equipment on the crawler tractor. He thought that the house he was living in this time was not a prefabricated house.The crawler tractor pulls a container-type integrated room.The space capsule room is similar to the place where Internet celebrities check in, and it is much more advanced than the prefabricated house.

There are only a dozen of these prefabricated houses, so it will definitely be no problem to live in them.

The motorboat did not stop when it reached the black boulders. Zhu Yu now looked at the black boulders and found that these were real stones, not man-made buildings.It's just that the shape is slightly like a city building.

Looking further underground, I found that I was now on land.There is land a few meters below the ice cap, but all you see is sand and rocks.

There are many large and small ice holes in these ice layers, which makes Zhu Yu very curious.

How are these ice caves formed?Some are directly connected to the land, as if they were drilled out by some kind of creature.

The tracked vehicle drove past the black boulders, drove forward for several kilometers, and finally stopped on a gray stone platform.

Most of this stone platform is covered with ice and snow, with a small part exposed.

Zhu Yu got out of the car, looked over with his celestial eye, and was surprised to find that the stone platform turned out to be a man-made building!
This is a pyramid-like building with three floors, each about five meters high.

Now everyone is in the highest position.But from the outside, it looks like an ordinary smooth stone.

The snow and ice near the stone platform showed signs of being excavated, but the excavated passage was covered again by ice and snow.

The crawler truck parked nearby, and then the container-style suites were unloaded here.The crawler truck drove back again.Obviously there are more supplies that need to be hauled over.

The next step is to assign rooms, six people to a room. There are men and women here. What makes Zhu Yu a little surprised is that Qin Fei is in the same room with him, and there is Judy.

Entering the sealed room, Zhu Yu felt that the temperature inside was at least above zero, and the double insulation door kept the cold out very well.The space inside is not too small and is well utilized.

Most of it is a bedroom, with a place similar to a living room, but there are workbenches around the walls that can be used to process materials.A small kitchen where you can boil water and heat some food.There are two separate bathrooms for men and women, which is very considerate.

After putting down the things and putting them away, Zhu Yu put on thick clothes and walked out.

There was a busy scene outside, with workers loading and unloading supplies.

Zhu Yu opened his eyes and looked at the location where the supplies were stored - there was a room containing many weapons, including guns, bullets, explosives, etc. Zhu Yu roughly understood what these things were for.

After the things were delivered, some machinery began to dig nearby.

There is no cell phone signal here.The ones with signal are satellite phones.

Zhu Yu's new mobile phone has the function of making satellite calls, but he did not make any calls. Instead, he put the phone away.

After looking at the traces of mechanical excavation, Zhu Yu returned to the room.

Since I'm here to pretend, it's better to feel safer.If you don't come across anything worth touching, just treat yourself as a staff member.

Entering the room, Zhu Yu was somewhat surprised to see Judy already making coffee.

"Want a drink?" Judy raised the cup at him.

"Thank you." Zhu Yu nodded.

He found that Judy seemed to be very familiar with this industry and felt confident. Could it be that she was specially invited by the Devina family?
Zhu Yu feels that people like him are just a cover, but people like Judy are the truly useful people, right?

I wonder what the Davener family and Nancy will do with them in the end?
Zhu Yu was not afraid at all. After all, he had space and was full of confidence.

After drinking coffee, Zhu Yu returned to his bed, and Zhu Yu happened to be diagonally opposite him.

The two chatted.

Zhu Yu guessed right, Nancy personally invited Judy!

The next day, when Zhu Yu and the others came out of the room, they found that a large hole more than ten meters deep and diagonally downward had appeared at the excavation site.The bottom of the cave has already seen the ground, which is a very smooth polished floor.

At this time, many people were immediately shocked!
Some staff members and Zhu Yu saw that the strangers had entered the cave and began to "inspect" the surroundings.

Zhu Yu originally wanted to go over and see the excitement, but the staff came over and informed:

"Mr. Tang, your mission is to inspect the nearby flora and fauna. You can take your equipment and leave. Mainly in that direction!"

Zhu Yu felt that this person just pointed him in a random direction.

Not only Zhu Yu, but also many people who came on the same boat were assigned directions for investigation and research. Zhu Yu understood that they were excluded from the real "scientific expedition."

Fortunately, Zhu Yu did not feel disappointed. It was difficult for him to move with the large army.

Zhu Yu carried his camera bag with a dissatisfied look on his face and walked in that direction.

Wearing a thick hat on his head, goggles on his glasses, and carrying a light camera bag, it really looked like that.

It wasn't just Zhu Yu who was walking in this direction, there were two other people, but as they walked, the two of them turned to a slightly different direction and walked forward quickly.

Although the two people were whispering, Zhu Yu heard clearly that the two people were going to pick up some meteorites on the ice cap, and maybe they could make some big money.

After all, the Antarctic continent is uninhabited. Few people come here to take a pediatric exam. Most of the meteorites that fall from the sky are on the ice sheet and are easily discovered.As a kind of collectible, meteorites are usually very valuable. If they are of gem quality, they are basically sky-high.

Zhu Yu didn't pay attention. He walked slowly, opened his eyes, and found that there were many traces of man-made buildings under the ice cap here.However, most of them have been destroyed by the ice, leaving only the foundations.A few of the stronger ones were also pressed underneath by the ice.

Zhu Yu turned around and found that Judy had also walked out of the room, but Nancy accompanied her into the cave.

As expected, archaeological experts are more popular!

Zhu Yu continued to walk forward and made a slight circle. He had roughly estimated that the area of ​​the ground buildings in this ruins was more than five or six kilometers. After walking so far, the buildings under the ice cap were still relatively dense.

What surprised Zhu Yu was that there were usually basements or underground passages under these buildings.

The passage is so deep that even with the celestial eye, one cannot see the bottom - the ice cap is more than ten meters high, and the passage goes down dozens of meters, turning, expanding, and connecting...

Zhu Yu suddenly made a bold guess: Could these underground passages be connected?

Just like the tunnel warfare during the Anti-Japanese War?
He walked and walked, stopping from time to time and pretending to observe the footprints of animals on the ground.

The two men who picked up meteorites have disappeared, and they don't know which ice ditch they went to.

Occasionally, when I look back, I can still see someone watching on the roof over there. I don’t know if they are observing people like me walking in all directions, or they are observing potential targets?Or are you observing the weather?
Zhu Yu descended into a shallow ice ditch, and the base was no longer visible from here.He saw a stone building with only its foundation left under the ice cap. There was a passage about 1.5 meters in diameter underneath.

Here it is!

Zhu Yu took off his gloves, squatted down and put his hand on the ice cap, directly taking away the ice that was one meter in radius and 1.5 meters deep.

A big hole appeared directly on the ice sheet!
Zhu Yu jumped down from the pit, stretched out his hand to hold down the ice wall, and "dug out" a large hole two meters deep at an angle!
Entering the large cave, Zhu Yu began to collect the ice directly down. He was surprised to find that there were some small creatures and some small meteorites in some of the ice.

But Zhu Yu didn't care. He went straight to the bottom with all his strength.

Because I had already controlled the direction when I dug down, the hole was right above the underground passage.

Zhu Yu stepped on the Antarctic ground and felt at ease.

The light shines through the ice, making it a little dark here, but it does not affect Zhu Yu's vision.

He bent down and put away the layer of sand and gravel on the ground, revealing a stone slab fifty centimeters above the ground.

Although the stone slab is a bit rough, the marks of cutting and polishing can be clearly seen.

After taking away the thirty-centimeter-thick stone slab, the passage below was exposed—a damp breath came to my face!

Zhu Yu was already prepared. When the breath rushed up to him, he had already held his breath and backed away.

However, he did not completely avoid the impact of the breath. He smelled a little and was surprised to find that the breath was not unpleasant at all, and the oxygen content in it was also very high!

Could it be that the place where this passage leads to has an environment that can produce oxygen?

Zhu Yu was confused!
The passage was straight up and down, but there were holes dug out on both sides for people to step on, which reminded him of the location of the "Tbilisi Underground Printing House" that he had seen before.

Walking down on the footprints, Zhu Yu observed the traces on both sides.

There are obviously some wet marks on the foot sockets, and the marks are very deep after stepping on them, indicating that no one has walked through this passage for a long time.It's normal when you think about it. The top has been blocked by ice caps, so it's naturally impassable here.

After going down for more than twenty meters, the passage bottomed out.

Then there were the passages that went straight. Zhu Yu's eyes were always open and he found that there were no mechanisms in these passages, so he walked forward confidently and boldly - after walking no more than ten meters, there was a fork in the road.

After walking along a fork for more than ten meters, there was an upward passage. Zhu Yu immediately understood that his previous guess was correct!

The downward passages hidden in these buildings on the ground are basically all connected!

These passages are equivalent to the roads on the ground in human cities!
He returned to the fork in the road, and then walked forward along the other fork in the road. He found that the passage was getting wider and wider, and it was diagonally downward.

After walking a dozen meters further, the temperature in the passage had already reached about zero degrees. Zhu Yu simply took off his thick clothes and went into the space.

The walls of the passage are embedded with luminous stones. Although the light is not strong, you can barely see the road under your feet and the situation within a few meters ahead.

Zhu Yu continued to walk forward, and when he encountered two more forks in the road, he finally saw what he had guessed.

This small fork in the road leads to a dug-out residence.

This residence has four living rooms, with a ceiling height of almost three and a half meters. The walls are cut very flat, and the furniture and other items are all directly cut out of stone, but apart from these stone items, there are not many other things.

The broken iron pot was piled with rust and shattered when touched.

Frayed seal skins, and some garbage piled in the corner.

In the humid environment, all these things had rotted away. If it weren't for his eyes, Zhu Yu wouldn't even be able to tell that the pile of ashes was an original iron pot.

The garbage is mainly composed of animal bones. It can be seen that the food of these people underground is still mainly meat.

Zhu Yu guessed, could this passage lead to an underground lake or sea?

Although he didn't find anything valuable, Zhu Yu felt that it was worth the price of admission for such a dungeon!
If this thing is known to the outside world, then world history may have to be changed again. Those people who colonized humans will no longer have a reason to say that humans originated in Africa.

Alas, I can’t explain the history clearly.There are too many other things mixed in.

Zhu Yu withdrew and walked in another direction. He walked very slowly.Although it can be guessed that there is a high probability that nothing valuable will be kept in these uppermost rooms, Zhu Yu is not hunting for treasures now, but hunting for novelties.

He found that at the same height, the structures of these rooms were basically similar. They were all three to four rooms with similar heights, and they were basically very clean inside.

After looking at about seven or eight such residences, Zhu Yu was surprised to find that in one of the residences, a piece of olivine meteorite weighing more than 30 kilograms was wrapped in a package of tattered animal skins!
The golden-yellow olivine meteorite is very beautiful, and it is polished into a spherical shape, almost a perfect sphere!

This thing should have been a treasure even in that era, right?Why was it lost?

Zhu Yu guessed that someone had hidden it, but he didn't take it with him when he left.unknown reason.

Based on the current market value, such a meteorite is almost over one million US dollars.

Not bad!

Zhu Yu happily collected the meteorite and continued walking down.

This underground city is huge.The passage is getting wider and wider, and the terrain is very complex.

While searching, Zhu Yu guessed whether those people at that time began to dig underground to live because the climate environment on the ground was getting worse and worse. As a result, they kept digging, and then simply moved underground.

But where is their food source?You can’t skip eating, right?
