The next day, dawn was barely breaking when Luo Feng casually had everyone eat something, then they began their search.
They did not livestream their five-kilometer journey. The terrain was complicated.
“Our host woke up and started streaming at nine today, how diligent!”
“Well you’d be even more surprised to learn that I actually woke up three hours earlier…” Luo Feng chuckled and did not bother much with the comment.
He immediately initiated the scan.
After the third-level scan was activated, there was an area within a kilometer where golden light was somewhat concentrated. Luo Feng smiled faintly.
He walked and dug simultaneously.
Puchi, Puchi.
[ Ding, you have dug up a corpse! ]
Luo Feng’s face warped. A corpse?
Quickly, after the soil was cleaned up, the corpse was revealed, and its appearance was quite preserved.
It wore a cotton jacket from the Kwantung Army. The fatal wounds it had suffered from seemed to be the three bullets lodged in the chest.
“Is this a Japanese soldier?”
“Why are there so many Kwantung Army soldiers in the mountains? “Host, look and see if there was a military fortress of the Japanese soldiers here.”
Luo Feng ignored the comments.
He continued to dig around the edge.
Once again, he dug up a corpse.
Luo Feng switched locations and continued to excavate.
After completing the excavation of the entire area, he was certain that all were
bodies.
The number reached as many as a thousand.
There was nothing extra on their bodies, let alone weapons and ammunition.
“Why are there so many corpses?” “Is this a burial site for about a thousand Japanese soldiers?”
“Who could have done this?”
“It couldn’t have been our army. After killing them, why would we bury them?”
“They certainly wouldn’t help with the burial!” “Not mutilating the bodies is already quite good!”
“Did they fall here and then naturally got buried?”
“Haha, are you a fool? It’s only been a few decades. Natural burial my foot!
Those naturally buried, absolutely take hundreds or even thousands of years!” Many of Luo Feng’s online fans were arguing at this moment.
They also found it strange. How could there be so many corpses of Japanese soldiers here?
Too abnormal.
Too strange.
Of course, Luo Feng guessed that these corpses might have been killed by the Japanese soldiers themselves.
The time of death should have been before World War Il.
This point could be seen from the uniforms.
Luo Feng did not continue to pay attention to these bodies and continued to move forward.
Although the six treasure hunters were following him, Luo Feng did not bother about them.
“Activate third-level scan!”
About an hour later.
Luo Feng initiated the scan once again.
After the scan was completed.
At a hundred meters away, another dense congregation of treasure markers appeared.
“This time, it shouldn’t be more corpses, right?”
Luo Feng dug while praying.
After digging for a while.
With a clang. [ Ding! You have dug up a military fortress! ]
[ Worth 40 billion! ]
Damn!
Worth 40 billion?
Despite Luo Feng’s initial understanding and speculation about this object, he was still somewhat astonished and excited to hear the valuation.
40 billion.
This was definitely an astronomical figure.
After all, Luo Feng, who had been doing this for so long, had only made a few tens of billions.
With this 40 billion, for ordinary people, it would take ten lifetimes to spend all this money.
Just the interest, can you imagine, how much Luo Feng would make each year?
If deposited in a bank.
Every year there would be five billion in interest.
One could spend about 15 million a day.
God knows how to spend all this money in one day.
Of course, when he first encountered those six Sakura nation individuals, Luo Feng had found it strange. Until he discovered the gold coins in the bird nest, those were gold coins from the Tsarist Russia era. Luo Feng had taken a secret look at night, there was a foreigner’s portrait on the front and a double-headed eagle relief on the back.
It was a typical gold coin issued in 1897 during the Tsarist Russia period, with a face value of 5 rubles, one piece weighing 4-4 grams.
Of course, those gold coins were not made of pure gold, and the gold content of one coin was approximately 0.77 grams.
The value of the gold coin itself was not high. In today’s collectibles market, it would only cost around of tens of thousands.
However, the amount of information carried by the gold coin was enormous.
Gold coins from the Tsarist Russia period ended up in Changbai Mountain.
There were also those six individuals.
Plus, he dug up a gold bar afterwards.
These pieces of information told Luo Feng a clear message.
This was why, in the bird’s nest, when he found the gold coin, Luo Feng did not make a fuss.
The good thing was that because magpies had defecated on it for many years, the gold coin were covered in a layer of feces.
Otherwise, it would have been difficult to gloss over it while livestreaming. Even without the layer of feces, Luo Feng would have cut the livestream and not shown it to everyone.
Once the gold coin was publicized, the six people behind would certainly understand.
Because everything pointed to the fact that this was the Tsarist Russian gold treasure.
Legend has it that Tsarist Russia lost approximately 600 tons of gold.
No, this should not be a legend, but a reality.
And now, the gold should be in the military fortress under his feet.
Luo Feng took a minute to calm his excited heart. Even for someone as nonchalant as him, his heart was racing and his face flushed red upon finding such a treasure.
Next, Luo Feng began his quick excavation.
He shoveled away the dirt, first digging out the steps.
Under Luo Feng’s full effort, a military fortress half a meter deep from the ground surface was completely excavated.
The rusty iron gate looked rickety..
