Chapter 1259 Under the Golden City
The hillside covered with green vines is more than 30 meters in front of the lake. Zhuang Rui was running and suddenly found that there was a wide bluestone road board from the lake to the hillside. The traces of man-made construction were already very obvious.
The distance of more than 30 meters is only instantaneous for the aura in Zhuang Rui's eyes. Before Zhuang Rui could sigh at the wide bluestone steps, the aura had already covered the whole hillside in front of him.
"I...I... I... Shit!!!" While Reiki wrapped the hillside, Zhuang Rui's body, which was running forward, staggered violently, tripped by vines under his feet, and fell to the ground.
But Zhuang Rui fell to the ground. At this moment, he didn't care about the pain in his arm at all. He stared at the hillside in front of him with an unbelievable look.
No..., where is that a hillside? It is a castle, but it is covered by wild vines in the forest. More importantly, many parts of the castle are made of gold.
In the interior and outside of the castle owner with a wood and stone structure, there is a very thin wall made of pure gold. There are countless furniture decorations in the castle, all of which are made of gold and silver. Relatively speaking, silver accounts for a larger proportion.
Such a castle, which can be called the Golden City, contains huge energy. As soon as Zhuang Rui's aura came into contact with one, he was moistened by that energy. Of course, he could not feel the pain of falling down.
"Brother Zhuang, what's wrong? What's so exciting?"
Peng Fei, who followed Zhuang Rui, stretched out his hand and pulled Zhuang Rui up. He had followed Zhuang Rui for so many years and had never seen Zhuang Rui like this.
"Huh? Is there something strange on that hillside?
When Peng Fei saw Zhuang Rui, he ignored him at all. He just stared straight at the hillside in front of him and couldn't help looking at him.
Just at this time, the silver back subdued by Zhuang Rui also ran to the hillside. It easily climbed to the half of the slope by grabbing the vines, and then lifted a place covered by the vines with his big hand, and the whole figure disappeared in it.
"What color is this...?" This time even Peng Fei noticed that at the moment when the vine was lifted, the afterglow of the sunset shone on it, reflecting the dazzling light of Peng Fei, who was not prepared at all, and his eyes were full of little Venus.
"Where's the yellow...the golden city!"
Zhuang Rui's expression was a little dull. Although he had surveyed the situation in the castle with Reiki, he still couldn't believe that there was such a great building in the hinterland of the forest.
In terms of scale, this castle covers an area of less than one hectare, and it is only three stories high. Compared with the ancient castle in the west, it is really nothing, but... the gold decorated inside and outside of this castle gives the castle a completely different meaning.
Even if the gold decorated on the wall is only a thin layer, even if the silver jewelry in the castle is much higher than the gold jewelry, it can't hold the castle.
Zhuang Rui believes that if all these golds are collected together, the total amount will be much higher than the golden house in Genghis Khan's Mausoleum, so it is not too much for Zhuang Rui to call it the Golden City.
The light that just appeared just flashed away. Before Peng Fei could recognize the color of the light, he was covered by the vines. Now after hearing Zhuang Rui's words, he couldn't help staring straight and muttering: "Huang... Nose Jincheng? Brother Zhuang, was that the golden light just now?
"Yes, it's the reflection of gold, five... How can this be possible!"
Zhuang Rui realized his gaffe and quickly said, "Let's go, don't stay there, go in and have a look..." "Oh! Oh!" When Zhuang Rui communicated with Peng Fei, King Kong had run to the bottom of the castle. After seeing many of his men getting into these vines, King Kong roared loudly.
With the roar of King Kong, gorillas lifted the vines one by one, which made Zhuang Rui and Peng Fei see more and more clearly. The wall with golden light was definitely made of gold.
"A pass...what the hell is it?"
Zhuang Rui groaned meaninglessly. He thought about the history of world archaeology, and there was no record of the hidden golden city in the Central African forest. In Africa, there seemed to be no place to attract adventurers except Solomon's treasure.
"Is Amazon's golden city built by imitating this golden city?" Suddenly, this idea came to Zhuang Rui's mind, and once the idea was born, he could no longer drive it out of his mind.
Among the world's top ten treasures, the Golden City is famous, but it tells the story of the Inca Kingdom of South America in the Middle Ages.
In ancient South America and Peru, there was a very strong Inca Empire. It is said that all the palaces and temples in the capital of the Inca Empire were decorated with a large amount of gold and silver, which were brilliant and brilliant.
At the beginning of the era, the Spaniards overthrew the Inca Empire and plundered all the gold gems.
At that time, the Spanish commander, Pisaro, heard that the gold of the Inca Empire came from a long-ruled Manoa country called Patty, and the gold and silver treasures piled up like mountains. Pisaro immediately organized an expedition to the golden city located in the depths of the Amazon dense forest.
However, in this vast primitive forest, every step forward means fear and death. There are beasts and poisonous snakes, savage cannibals, lost roads and threats, and expeditions return in disappointment, or whereabouts are unknown, so that Pisaro can only imagine** to look at the forest.
Then, Spaniards, Portuguese, British, Dutch and Germans heard about the Golden City. Everyone wanted to get a lot of money, so they flocked into the Amazon forest.
Among them, an Spaniard named Caisada led about 716 explorers to the Golden City.
After paying the heavy price of 550 lives, he finally found the Golden City and the legendary Golden Lake in the jungle of Conti Namar, and found jade gems worth $3 million. However, this is only a small part of the invaluable treasure of the Golden City.
The so-called Golden Lake refers to the traditional coronation ceremony of the ancient Inca emperor.
According to the nephew of the last Indian king in the 17th century, the heir to the throne at that time was coated with gold powder, like gold, and then swam in the lake to wash away the gold powder.
Then his subjects offered gold and emeralds one after another and piled them at his feet. The new king threw all the gold into the lake as a dedication to God. In the ancient Inca Empire, this traditional ceremony was held countless times, which showed that the reserves of the Golden Lake to people's * *It's done.
Since the 16th century, people have not stopped salvaging the Golden Lake. At the beginning of the last century, a British company dug a tunnel and drained the lake, but the sun quickly dried the thick mud into a dry mud plate. When the British brought drilling equipment from Britain, the lake was filled with the lake water again. The second costly salvage is a failure.
In 1974, the Colombian government was worried that the treasures in the lake would fall into the hands of others, so it sent troops to protect the golden lake. Since then, no one can approach the treasures, so the mysterious golden lake has become an unsolved mystery.
"Is this the legendary golden lake?" After this allusion flashed in Zhuang Rui's mind, he suddenly turned back to the glowing lake.
Although this allusion tells the story that happened in the Amazon jungle of South America, the situation in front of him is so similar that Zhuang Rui has no choice but to associate it.
"Brother Zhuang, there are a lot of bones here..." Just as Zhuang Rui was guessing the origin of the lake and the Golden City, Peng Fei's voice suddenly came to his ear.
"What's going on?" Zhuang Rui followed the sound and saw that Peng Fei had turned on the bright light. He was frowning and squatting under the green vine, and hurried over.
"Damn, what kind of colleague is this?"
When Zhuang Rui walked to Peng Fei, he couldn't help but be shocked by the white bones on the ground. There were dozens of these bones, and each skeleton was complete, but the bones were a little black, as if they had been corroded by some substance.
"These should be human bones..."
Zhuang Rui's doctor of archaeology is not in vain, and he also knows a little about human deplaning. These skulls are composed of frontal bone, cervical bone, parietal bone, occipital bone, butterfly bone and sieve bone, showing typical human characteristics.
"How did they die? It seems to have been corroded by strong acid, Brother Zhuang, this place is a little strange..." Peng Fei frowned tightly into a Sichuan character. Since he came to this area, he felt a little scared.
"Can you say something nice? There are gorillas living here. How can there be something strange?"
At this time, the sun has completely set from one end of the forest, and the whole forest is shrouded in darkness. Except for the lights beside Zhuang Rui and Peng Fei, everything else is dark.
What are the identities of these people? Why did you come here? Why did you die here? And there are no rotten clothes around them. Where did their clothes go? All of this is unknown.
The unknown is always the biggest enemy in the hearts of human beings. Many human bones were suddenly found in the depths of the forest, which were a little strange. Coupled with Peng Fei's words, Zhuang Rui's heart also had a chill. "Damn, I always feel something is wrong..." Peng Fei spoke and took the submachine gun on his back. At the same time, four fluorescent sticks came out of the backpack.
After shaking it in his hand, Peng Fei threw the fluorescent stick out in four directions. This kind of military-specialized fluorescent stick suddenly made the two people light up dozens of meters away.
