Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 163 Garbage and Clues

After confirming that the ruins of the village were safe, the three of them immediately took metal detectors and started searching the village, but unfortunately they found nothing but a pile of garbage.

"I don't think the last treasure of the Byzantine Empire should be hidden in this place." Fan Meng said to Liang En with a gloomy expression after throwing aside the shriveled broken iron pot just dug out from the ruins.

"This village is built by the river. I don't think this kind of place is very suitable for storing all kinds of treasures. Otherwise, the humidity of your place will destroy most of the treasures."

"You're right." Liang En said while exploring the ruins with a metal detector. "But the previous map was too general, so according to tradition, we can only check human settlements first."

"More importantly, this village is the only settlement and water supply point within a radius of tens of kilometers. If Conrad's expedition team really came here, there is a high probability that they will settle in this village and stay there. Make a mark."

"You're right, I found something interesting here." Pierce, who was searching in the next room, suddenly shouted at this moment, and then walked over holding an empty rusty can.

"Canned Spam luncheon meat?" Liang En immediately recognized what the box was after taking a look at the broken can, because the front of the box said SPAM in capital letters.

This luncheon meat was the most famous and arguably the most notorious ration of the US Army throughout World War II. Even the US Army compiled many jokes about this luncheon meat.

But with the exception of Americans, most of the world is grateful for this kind of processed meat.This is true whether it is the United Kingdom, the Soviet Union, or many countries affected on the Pacific battlefield.

For example, McDonald’s restaurants on several Pacific islands even sell hamburgers with canned Spam luncheon meat. Another example is the military pot that Koreans are proud of. Luncheon meat.

But it’s a bit strange to find canned luncheon meat in this place. Although luncheon meat has spread all over the world after the end of World War II, the village had been abandoned for more than 20 years at that time.

"Maybe this is what was left behind by the expedition team that Conrad was in." Looking at the 1952 production date on the can, Liang En had an idea and suddenly thought of a possibility.

So in the following time, the three of them dug together in the ruins of the room where the empty cans were found, and soon, one piece of garbage left over from the 50s was dug out.

"I can be sure that there is a high probability that this is something left by Conrad's expedition team." Looking at the pile of garbage in front of him, Liang En explained to his two companions with certainty.

Because the production dates of these things are basically concentrated in the 20s and 50s, and they are mainly food packaging suitable for wild adventures, which are obviously left by wild explorers.

The most striking thing in this small pile of rubbish was a pocket knife with a handle inlaid with pearl oyster, but the connection between the blade and the blade had been damaged, and the blade was also missing.

This knife was found by Liang En from a dusty corner of the room. Judging from the current condition of the knife, it is very likely that the user accidentally broke the knife, and then threw it away in a fit of anger.

Although the knife looked inconspicuous at all, it was very important to Liang En, especially when they spent two days searching the entire small village but still had no clue.

"We've scoured the village, but we haven't found anything except some rubbish that may have been left by Conrad's archaeological team, and the rubbish is obviously not convincing enough."

After the search, Pierce said over lunch. "Obviously, it's impossible to convince the employer to pay us if we just go back with these things, but there is no clue for us to go any further."

After speaking, Pierce and Fan Meng looked at Liang En at the same time.Because Liang En is now leading this pocket adventure team, what to do next depends entirely on his decision.

"Let me think about it." After realizing that it was time to make a decision, Liang En showed a thoughtful look on his face.Clearly, decisions made now will determine the next steps for everyone.

After realizing this, Liang En combined the four [Detection (N)] he had now into one [Detection (R)], and then used it on the handle of the destroyed jackknife he found earlier.

And the moment the card was used, a map appeared in Liang En's mind, and a point on the map was also illuminated by milky white light at the same time.

After realizing that the straight-line distance between that point and himself was not more than 5km, Liang En pretended to be thinking about the problem, and at the same time directed the three ravens scurrying around in the surrounding woods to fly into the air immediately, and then scouted towards that point. .

Because I already know something through the card.So the three ravens commanded by Liang En soon found a mountain path with artificial traces in the surrounding mountains, and that point was near the road.

It has to be said that time can make too many things change their appearance.Those artificial traces are now almost all hidden under vegetation or soil.

If it is not known in advance and carefully searched around, aerial reconnaissance will not see the traces left by humans at all.

After making this discovery, Liang En's confidence suddenly increased a lot.He stood up from the campfire, and said to his two companions.

"I think we can search the surrounding area, especially where there are traces of human activities. I suspect that there may be some other relics around this village."

"Of course, we can't keep searching in this place. So let's limit it to three days, and search almost all around this valley in three days. If there is no one, we will retreat."

So after lunch, the three of them immediately searched the surrounding area around the village. However, unlike Liang En's previous prediction, they found another exit of the valley in just one afternoon.

It's not surprising that this happened, after all, the area of ​​this valley is not big, and the three people present have all been trained in searching, and Liang En can also cheat.So it was normal to find the path so quickly.

"These trees seem to have been planted here on purpose." Fan Meng was the first to discover the entrance to the valley path hidden by the bushes.

Before he found a cobblestone path extending out of the village in the village. Although the path was destroyed shortly after leaving the village, Fan Meng found it according to the direction the path extended. Hidden valley entrance.

"Go up and have a look." After opening a path in the bushes with the machete they carried with them, the three armed men walked into the valley.
