The four people climbed up the cave. There were many stones scattered inside the cave. A big hole was blown open in the wall. It was dark and deep inside, as if a pair of black eyes were staring at you. A timid person would not dare to look at the entrance of the cave if he saw it.

But the five of them were all thinking about the treasure and were not afraid at all.

Uncle Huo, who should have been the most frightened, picked up a hammer and started knocking along the blown-up hole, widening the wall to a size large enough for one person to walk in.

Su Xiaozhong picked up a stone from the ground, looked at it carefully, and said with a sigh, "I was wondering why the bluestone was so strong, it turned out to be lapis lazuli."

Torches, hammers, ropes, candles, etc. are the most common tools for exploration.

Su Wuming took out a torch from the package and lit it. "I'll go ahead."

He took the lead and walked into the cave. Su Yin reminded him, "Be careful, there may be a trap inside."

"good."

Su Wuming stepped in and took a breath of cold air after seeing the situation inside the corridor.

"Be careful, there is ..."

Before Su Wuming could finish his words, four people had already quickly entered the cave.

When the four saw the scene in the corridor clearly, they all gasped. There were countless bloody scratches around the walls of the cave, and these people were lying at the entrance of the cave in various postures.

Looking at the skeletons with missing limbs, everyone had the same thought in their mind. Their stomachs churned and they felt sad for these people.

Su Xinguang observed for a while, "These people were starved to death here. They killed each other before they died, and they also thought of many ways, but unfortunately the killer would not give them any chance."

"These people should be the personal soldiers of the previous royal family who transported the treasure."

"Yes. The skeleton age is young and middle-aged, so it should be correct."

Su Yin saw a series of scratches on the wall of a cave, which should be the marks left by them when they were trapped in the cave.

She counted them silently and there were about twenty of them.

In the pitch-black cave, time was confused. Perhaps they had only stayed in the cave for seven days, but in their memory they had stayed there for twenty days. Or perhaps they had only stayed there for three days, or even these were all hallucinations before they died.

At the end of the last scratch, there was a line of crooked words engraved. After careful analysis, it read: [I, Cheng Gan, curse the Jin royal family to have no descendants and fall into the Avici Hell forever in exchange for reincarnation.]

This guard named Cheng Gan used his chance of reincarnation to curse the royal family of the previous dynasty. It can be seen how much hatred he had for the royal family of the previous dynasty at that time.

There are many corpses near the periphery, and the further you go in, the fewer corpses you see.

Various gold, silver and jewelry were scattered around these corpses, but after seeing these twisted corpses and miserable skeletons, I lost my desire for gold, silver and jewelry and instead felt an inexplicable sadness in my heart.

Gold, silver and jewelry are scattered on the corridor not far from the cave entrance.

"There is a light here." Uncle Huo said to Su Wuming.

Su Wuming walked forward and lit the lamps one by one. When all the lamps were lit, a huge cave appeared before their eyes. Under the candlelight, golden peaks were piled up, reflecting brilliant golden light. The dazzling golden light made the five people cover their eyes.

Those golden mountains were all made of gold. There were countless wooden boxes on both sides, stacked high to form small hills. Near the outermost edge, several wooden boxes had been overturned, and gems and jade were scattered on the ground.

This is a small corner inside the cave.

Today, Su Yin finally saw what mountains of gold and silver were.

Everyone's breathing became rapid as they looked at the wealth in this cave.

This cave was very large, probably the size of a football field, or even larger. Such a large cave was filled with thousands of treasures.

The Su family could not squander all this wealth in dozens of lifetimes. If it were used to feed the people of the Yong Dynasty, it would probably last for a few years.

After the initial shock, the five people gradually calmed down.

Su Yin picked up a gold brick from the ground. It was very heavy and felt very comfortable in the hand.

Su Xiaozhong also picked up a gold brick on the ground and said, "It's very pure."

The gold in the hands of the royal family and aristocratic families is generally of higher purity than the gold circulating on the market.

"With these things, the Northwest Army can have a good year."

As soon as these words fell, Uncle Huo's heart trembled and he looked at the head of the family in disbelief.

He thought that after the master found these treasures, he would secretly keep them for his own use, but from what he said, it was clear that...

Uncle Huo suddenly knelt down in front of Su Xiaozhong with a thump and kowtowed to him, "Master, I thank you for your kindness on behalf of the soldiers in the northwest."

Su Xiaozhong quickly helped the man up from the ground, "No need to do this."

Even Su Wuming who was standing by was surprised.

Su Xiaozhong looked at the cave full of gold and silver, then turned to look at Su Wuming and Uncle Huo, "What do you think of the current situation in the world? How are the people living?"

Uncle Huo and Su Wuming did not answer immediately, but fell into thought.

Uncle Huo said, "To be honest, the Northwest Army is not receiving the Emperor's grace, but the Duke of Su. If it weren't for the Duke of Su's continuous subsidies and efforts to raise military pay, the 200,000-strong army would have starved to death long ago, and they would not have been able to hold on. Many of the brothers who died in battle, and most of the compensation money, were embezzled by officials in the capital. The soldiers in the Northwest are all aware of these things."

Uncle Huo had some vague guesses, but he didn't dare to say much and stopped there.

Su Wuming followed up with, "Corrupt officials are rampant, and the people are living in misery. I see this is a decadent dynasty, and its days are numbered."

Uncle Huo understood it, so how could Su Wuming not understand it?

"Master, no matter what you want to do, I, Huo Jun, will fully support you, even if it means sacrificing this person."

"Master, righteousness." Su Wuming only said four short words, but they contained his yearning.

When Dad asked that question, Su Yin understood that Dad probably had made a decision in his mind.

Uncle Huo stayed behind to guard the place, while the others returned to Tangquan City.

In the inn, Su Baozhu and her mother accompanied Queen Chen to the clan land of Duke Yingguo. As the Duke Yingguo's mansion was wiped out with nine clans, it had long been a wasteland, and the ancestral hall was reduced to ruins in a fire.

The ancestral tablets that had been enshrined for a hundred years were reduced to ashes in that fire and that devastating disaster.

Su's mother and Su Baozhu could clearly feel that after returning from the clan land, Queen Chen was in a low mood and had no appetite.

Neither of them knew how to comfort him.

When they were at a loss, Su Yin and his group finally came back.

The room they lived in was in the inner room, and the surrounding rooms were all theirs, so safety had already been taken into consideration.
