Chapter 410: Unlocking the Treasure
The Eagle King followed the command and flew to the cave entrance with the father and daughter on his back, and the Falcon King followed closely with the little gourd.
Looking inside from the cave entrance, the space is not large, and the stairs leading downwards extend infinitely under the illumination of the night pearls on the stone wall.
The Eagle King and the Falcon King couldn't enter the cave, so Chu Chengyi carried Chu Qinshu and stepped down from the platform inside the cave.
Little Gourd, the Eagle King and the Falcon King were left to stand guard at the entrance of the cave.
The father and daughter walked down the stairs, step by step, for nearly half an hour before reaching the flat ground at the bottom.
The flat ground was surrounded by stone walls, with a night-shining pearl embedded every few feet or so, illuminating the inside as if it were daytime.
This stone chamber has no end in sight, whether front, back, left, or right.
There were boxes of various sizes on the floor of the stone chamber, and in the middle there were several rows of antique shelves that stretched to the horizon, with boxes of various sizes placed on the shelves as well.
Chu Chengyi walked forward and casually opened a box, inside which were neatly arranged gold ingots.
"Daddy, Shu'er wants to see it."
When Chu Qinshu saw the gold, every cell in her body was shouting, "We are rich, rich, very rich."
"Okay, Shu'er, take a look."
Chu Chengyi picked up a gold ingot and handed it to Chu Qinshu, feeling quite emotional.
The legend that neither he nor his father believed in was now right before his eyes, making it difficult for him to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
"Daddy, Shu'er can't bite it, is it real gold?"
Chu Qinshu was like a little money-grubber. She put the gold ingots into her mouth, trying to test whether they were real or fake with her little milk teeth.
Unfortunately, she was only two years old, and she didn't dare to exert too much effort, for fear that she would bite off her baby teeth that had grown with great difficulty, and then she would have no teeth to eat delicious food.
So after biting it several times, it couldn't leave any mark on the gold ingot.
"Don't worry, Daddy will help you try."
Seeing his daughter's greedy look, Chu Chengyi was happy to make her happy, so he picked up a gold ingot and actually put it in his mouth and took a bite.
When he took it out to show Chu Qinshu after biting it, there were several neat tooth marks on the gold ingot.
"Shu'er, these gold ingots are real."
Chu Chengyi looked at Chu Qinshu with a smile.
How could the gold that took so much effort to hide be fake?
However, it feels really comfortable to be with my daughter and be obsessed with money.
If possible, he would like to live a carefree life relying on his daughter for the rest of his life.
After all, my daughter has so many treasures, it’s not difficult for her to support just one father.
Besides, he is not the kind of father who wastes money.
"Wow, is it really true? That's great, Shu'er has made a fortune."
Chu Qinshu took the gold ingot with the tooth mark from her father's hand, looked at it several times, and after confirming it, she struggled to get down to the ground.
She's made a fortune, all the treasures here are hers, she must count them carefully to see how many gold ingots there are.
Chu Chengyi squatted down and put Chu Qinshu on the ground. Chu Qinshu ran between the boxes with her short legs.
Every time you open a box, it is filled with gold ingots.
After opening more than ten of them, they were all shining with gold ingots. Such wealth was something Chu Qinshu could never imagine in her entire lifetime.
Chu Chengyi watched Chu Qinshu running between the boxes like a happy little duck, with a look of relief that he couldn't hide on his face.
As long as his daughter is happy, he doesn't care about wealth and power.
However, only wealth and power can enable him to better protect his daughter.
He is determined to take Changxing Mainland.
Chu Qinshu had run enough, seen enough, and was tired, so she reached out to Chu Chengyi to hug her.
"Dad, let's keep walking forward and see how many good things there are here."
Chu Qinshu stretched out her hand and pointed forward. She couldn't walk fast because her father had long legs.
"good."
Chu Chengyi agreed and walked along the empty aisle.
It took us an hour to reach the end.
"Dad, this should be under the ancient tomb."
Chu Qinshu's sense of direction is not very good, but in order to find the treasure, she and Xiao Hulu studied a lot of information and conducted many field investigations.
She could find the location of the ancient tomb with her eyes closed. Even if it was underground, her feeling would not be wrong.
"Well, Shu'er is right."
Chu Chengyi nodded and looked up unconsciously. Sure enough, he saw a hanging coffin.
The location of the tomb door can be easily determined by looking at the direction of the hanging coffin.
The person who hid the treasure really took great pains.
The ancient tomb is real, and the treasure is real, but the method to open the treasure is something that most people would never think of.
Normally, if you find the tomb, you will find the mechanism to open the treasure.
However, the person who hid the treasure did the opposite. The mechanism to open the treasure was set up on the back of the tomb, and on a cliff that no one would care about.
No wonder it has been hidden for thousands of years and no one has found it.
There is really no other reason to hide the treasure like this except waiting for the right person.
"Dad, shall we go take a look?"
Following Chu Chengyi's gaze, Chu Qinshu also saw the hanging coffin.
When she first saw it, she was a little scared.
When I looked at her again, she had miraculously calmed down.
Then, she felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy, and wanted to see the person in the coffin.
"Yeah, I'll go check it out."
Chu Chengyi nodded and looked at the hanging coffin with respect.
Regardless of whether this person is the ancestor of the Zhang family or the ancestor of the Chu family, this treasure was left behind by him/her, and of course his/her permission must be obtained to take it away.
"Daddy, fly."
After Chu Qinshu finished speaking, she hugged Chu Chengyi's neck tightly and clasped her legs around her father's waist.
This way she can hang more steadily, so that her father won't use his lightness skills to make her fall down again.
The spiritual birds are all very big, and there are treasures on the walls and on the ground here. She can't let them come out to carry her. If they flap their wings and hurt a treasure, she will be very sad.
"Okay, little money man, Daddy will fly now."
How could Chu Chengyi not understand his daughter's little thoughts? Let her fly. Fortunately, he was also good at light work.
There are many places on the stone wall to gain leverage, so it is not difficult to see what is going on inside the coffin.
Chu Chengyi observed the terrain, found a few leverage points, and then determined the final landing place, then jumped up with Chu Qinshu in his arms.
Chu Qinshu clung to her father tightly, just like an octopus.
Only when Chu Qinshu felt Chu Chengyi stop did she turn around and look at the location of the hanging coffin.
When I looked up from the ground just now, I could only see the coffin body and the bottom of the coffin.
Now from a high place, we can clearly see the coffin lid, which is actually made of crystal.
The thousand-year-old crystal was free of a speck of dust, and the situation inside the coffin could be seen clearly.
The father and daughter looked at the person in the coffin, and doubts flashed through their minds.
Chu Chengyi: How could this old ancestor be so young when he passed away?
Chu Qinshu: Why does this person look familiar?
