The stone door opened, revealing an entrance.

It's dark inside. If you shine a flashlight inside, you can see stairs made of stone. The stairs extend downwards and you can't see the end.

"This, this... do you want to go down?" Gu Lang asked Xu Shuxin.

"of course."

Xu Shuxin felt that what Gu Lang asked was nonsense.

It's already here, if she doesn't follow to see the baby, it won't be in vain.

Chen Jun also came over, stood behind the two of them, and urged: "What are you waiting for? There must be treasures down there. Let's get down quickly."

"Grandpa Chen, are you going too?" Gu Lang asked, and then advised: "Why don't you stay up there? We don't know what's down there. What if hidden weapons suddenly shoot out from all directions after we go down?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Xu Shuxin raising her hand and throwing something inside, and then there was the sound of something falling to the ground and rolling.

"Xinxin, what did you throw in there?"

"Stone, aren't you afraid that there is a hidden weapon inside? So I threw a stone in to help us explore the way."

Gu Lang: "...You are so thoughtful."

He didn't see her picking up rocks just now, and there didn't seem to be any rocks inside, so she picked them up outside the cave.

Did she foresee this scene before she even entered the cave?
What a vision!

Chen Jun spoke up at the right time, "There are no hidden weapons, so can I go down with you now?"

Gu Lang still wanted to say a few words, but Xu Shuxin had already agreed, "Grandpa Chen, you can follow if you want."

Gu Lang: "Xinxin, aren't you afraid that there are hidden weapons down there?"

Xu Shuxin: "I trust my intuition, I don't think so."

"I believe it too," Chen Jun said.

Gu Lang: "...Okay, if there is really danger, Grandpa Chen, you can hide behind me."

Chen Jun urged him, "Let's go quickly. Don't stand here any longer. It will get dark if we delay any longer."

Gu Lang: "..."

It's not that exaggerated.

With this thought in mind, he lifted his legs and walked down.

Xu Shuxin turned sideways and gave way, "Grandpa Chen, you go first, I will follow behind."

"That's fine."

After speaking, Chen Jun raised his legs and followed Gu Lang.

He went down empty-handed, and as for the backpack containing luminous sand, he placed it in the cave.

Xu Shuxin motioned to Xiao Huang and Xiao Hei beside her, "You two go first."

Xiao Huang and Xiao Hei waggled their tails happily and followed in.

Xu Shuxin also walked in.

She had just reached the third step when the door slammed shut behind her.

Gu Lang and Chen Jun turned back at the same time.

Gu Lang said in surprise: "Why is the door closed? Did you close Xinxin?"

Xu Shuxin shook her head, "No."

Gu Lang's heart sank, "Sure, we won't be locked in here and can't get out, right?"

Chen Jun was also a little worried.

Xu Shuxin was not so worried and comforted the two of them, "It's okay. They've all come in anyway. Let's go down and have a look first. Don't think too much. There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. We will definitely be able to get out."

After seeing Xu Shuxin's good luck, Gu Lang was still convinced by her words, "Okay, let's keep walking." Walking down the stone stairs, after turning three turns, they came to a basement.

The basement is visually estimated to be more than 50 square meters, and the height is about two meters, so the space is a bit cramped.

In the basement, there is a pile of sacks containing things on the right side, and a pile of boxes stacked on top of each other on the left side.

"Have we really found the treasure?" Gu Lang asked.

Xu Shuxin: "Open the box and take a look and you will know."

"Yes."

Chen Jun said, taking the lead in walking to the box.

Xu Shuxin counted a total of thirty boxes, large and small, and each one was locked.

Chen Jun looked at the locks with difficulty. He couldn't open them.

Gu Lang looked around with a flashlight and murmured: "It's strange. Judging from the dust here, no one has been here for a long time. So where did those treasures come from?"

Ok?
Are there other treasures?

Xu Shuxin was confused after hearing Gu Lang's words.

"Cousin Gu, what are you talking about? Where does this treasure come from? Do we have other treasures here?"

When did they have so many treasures in this area?

Although they have many mountains here, they were called the land of the Southern Barbarians in ancient times.

Even if this place was later developed and placed under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, it was still a place that officials did not want to come to. How could they have so many treasures here?

Xu Shuxin expressed doubts.

Gu Lang thought, since Xu Shuxin already knew about the treasure, it wouldn't matter if she knew more information.

If there really is a treasure elsewhere, with her incredible luck, she will have to rely on her to find the treasure later.

So he told the story.

The story begins with what happened at Aunt Xu's house. Tang Wenhong led people to arrest Qian, the secretary of the Advance Brigade, and dug out a treasure from the ground of their home. After some interrogation, Secretary Qian revealed the source of the treasure.

That was what the enemy rewarded him for doing things for the enemy. As for why the enemy had so many treasures and rewarded him so much.

Let’s start with the treasures on the mountain.

Secretary Qian said that he once overheard an enemy's conversation, saying that there was a treasure on the mountain in their area. At that time, he became interested and wanted to find the treasure himself and then devour it for himself.

However, he searched for a long time and could not find the treasure.

After getting the news, Tang Wenhong took people to search in the mountains, but of course found nothing.

The public security bureau in a small place didn't have many people, so they couldn't find the people to spend time looking for treasures that they didn't know were true or false, so he didn't continue.

Finally he thought of Gu Lang.

Although Gu Lang looks polite, he was thrown into the army for training since he was a child, so he is not afraid that Gu Lang will encounter fatal danger in the mountains.

If Gu Lang really finds the treasure, it will be a great achievement for him. It will be very useful whether he returns to the city or finds a job in the future.

As soon as he told Gu Lang, Gu Lang agreed without thinking.

He had the same idea as Tang Wenhong. This was a good opportunity to make meritorious deeds, and he would not let it go.

But he didn't expect that the rumored treasure would be so difficult to find. He spent his free time running up the mountain for several months, but he found nothing.

As a result, now with the help of Xu Shuxin, I found it in less than a day!
You can't think about it and regret your stupidity as soon as you think about Gu Lang.

If he had asked Xu Shuxin to help earlier, why would he have been delayed until today?
"According to Qian Gensheng, those people dug up the treasure last year, but if you look at the dust here, no one has come in before us, so I suspect that there are more treasures in this mountain range."

When Gu Lang said this, he looked at Xu Shuxin with bright eyes, and the meaning was self-evident.

Without waiting for Xu Shuxin to speak, he said to Xu Shuxin expectantly: "Xinxin, I need your help next time!"
