Chapter 1214: Locusts Crossing the Border



Han Qing glanced at Lu Zhiye and walked towards the cave entrance first.

He walked for a distance and made sure it was safe down there, then he shouted to Lu Zhiye, "It's okay down there, you can come down directly."

When Lu Zhiye jumped down, he took a special look at the surrounding soil. He reached out and touched it. Judging from the freshness of the soil, it should not have been dug recently.

Han Qing came over quickly and talked to Lu Zhiye about the hole: "It looks like this hole has been dug for some time.

I don’t know how Jin Da and the others found this yard.

I just looked inside this cave and there's a fork in the road ahead.

I don’t know where it leads to…”

Lu Zhiye nodded slightly. When he came to the fork, Lu Zhiye said to Han Qing: "You go up there and guard it. I'll explore both cave entrances."

Han Qing hesitated to speak, feeling a little unbelievable.

Isn’t this person afraid that he will run away?

Or aren't they afraid that what he said before was all lies, and they'll go find Jin Da's people again and catch him in a trap?

Lu Zhiye seemed to see through his thoughts: "Don't look at me like that. If you want to ignore the life and death of your grandparents, you can do so."

Han Qing's expression tensed up, and he lowered his head quickly: "Then I'll go up first!"

Lu Zhiye looked at the fork in the road on his left, sniffed it, then scooped up some soil from the hole with his hand and licked it.

He could clearly feel the wind on this side, but the other side was completely airtight.

The soil here is wet and salty, and most of the time it leads to the seaside.

Lu Zhiye thought for a moment, then turned and walked towards the fork in the road to the right.

After walking for about 200 meters, the narrow corridor suddenly became clear.

Lu Zhiye's eyes widened and he looked at the things in the cave in disbelief.

Wow, there are Buddha heads, bronze animals, porcelain, jade ornaments, etc., everything you can think of.

Some were neatly packed in wooden boxes, while others were just randomly thrown on the ground.

There are a lot of broken porcelain in the corners, the patterns of which are so complex that modern technology cannot produce them.

It must be some old craft that has been lost.

A hint of regret flashed through Lu Zhiye's mind. In this flood, China lost too many treasures.

Not only were some of the rare items stolen by others, but also these traitors and unscrupulous businessmen took advantage of the country's crisis to export a large number of rare items abroad.

I think Jin Da and his team have been doing this business for a long time.

Lu Zhiye carefully put everything into the space, even the broken porcelain pieces in the corner.

He continued walking inside and found a cave below with many boxes placed there.

Looking at the dusty surface, Lu Zhiye seemed to be thinking about something.

He took out a large crowbar from the space and pried open one of the wooden boxes.

The golden yellow almost blinded his eyes.

"Gulp..." Lu Zhiye swallowed his saliva...

Could it be that the twenty or so boxes in this cave are all filled with yellow croaker?

Impossible...

Lu Zhiye didn't have time to think about it. He waved his hand and all the things fell into the space in an orderly manner.

There is actually a door behind these boxes.

Just as Lu Zhiye was about to go in, he heard hurried footsteps outside.

Lu Zhiye narrowed his eyes, turned around and saw Han Qing running over in a hurry: "Boss Lu, someone is coming into the yard.

I only had time to move the cabinet back to its original position with the arrows still stuck there.

What should I do? Is there an exit to the outside?"

"How did you find me directly?"

There were two forks in the road, and Han Qing actually came here so accurately?

“I was just guessing, I felt like there was wind at the intersection over there, so I guessed there must be an exit.

You should come in here first!"

Lu Zhiye nodded and quickly went through the small door.

He shone the flashlight in his hand across the entire cave, and to their surprise, they discovered that the caves in this place were made of stone.

Han Qing quickly opened a box and two pieces of paper fell out.

He looked excited: "This is actually the recipe?

This is an ancient recipe for silk dyeing, this is a medicine recipe, this is a recipe for refining equipment............"

Han Qing looked a little crazy, he wanted to open all the boxes and put the prescription in his arms.

There are many ancient recipes and books that have been lost.

Lu Zhiye's heavy cough also made Han Qing suddenly sober and quiet.

Lu Zhiye glanced at Han Qing coldly and said, "Go out and see if there are any other holes?

They spent so much money, it can't be just to collect some prescriptions, right?"

Han Qing nodded at the door repeatedly and left, looking back every few steps.

Lu Zhiye quickly put all the prescriptions into the space.

After another careful inspection around him, he suddenly discovered something strange on the stone wall not far away.

This stone wall is obviously more raised than other places. Maybe they didn't find suitable stones when they were built? ? ?

Soon, Lu Zhiye denied this idea because the stone fell off with a slight force of his arm.

There was a long wooden box hidden inside.

Firmly embedded in the stone wall.

Time was tight at the moment, and Lu Zhiye took great effort to unload the box.

Without even bothering to see what was inside, he walked out quickly.

According to Lu Zhiye's speculation, this thing should have a mechanism and be embedded firmly. How much effort would it take to take it down by manpower?

Han Qing trotted over and said with a puzzled look on his face: "There is another hole over there, but it's not something important?
