Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 427 Clues
"Ah, I found it, this is it." After searching for half an hour, the old priest finally found what he was looking for from the pile of materials.

"You should be looking for the Lopez brothers, but they left here and immigrated to Argentina more than 50 years ago. If they are still alive, they should be in their 80s."

As he said that, the priest put the document on the table, and at that moment, Liang En recognized that the photo pasted on the upper left corner of the document was indeed the target he was planning to find before.

After opening the document, he found that the content of the document seemed a bit thin, except for the date of birth and the date of moving out of this area, there were only a few clues in it.

"During the civil war, our village was a battlefield, so many people fled to other places, and the Lopez brothers left here with their parents when they were very young, and they didn't come here until they were seventeen or eighteen years old. return."

After seeing Liang En's expression, the old priest quickly talked about the Lopez brothers. According to him, these two people are also celebrities in this small village.

After all, this village is considered simple and honest, so the two sneaky guys who occasionally come in will be very conspicuous, so even though the present priest was not born at that time, he still heard his parents talk about this pair of brothers.

According to the priest, after two or three years of being together, they suddenly changed their ways, and then immigrated to Argentina together after earnestly saving money for a few years.

As a result, this story has always been passed on by the villagers as the best case of a prodigal son returning from word of mouth. This priest naturally heard it from his parents when he was young, so Liang En could remember it immediately when he asked him. .

"Can you tell me where they lived back then?" Liang En became more suspicious of them when he heard that the two brothers turned their backs on the year after Mr. Garcia's death, so he immediately asked.

"The house the other party lives in is the two-story building at the head of the village, but it has already been lived in by someone else." The priest pointed to a small building through the window. "The things left by the brothers should not be found in the building now."

"In addition, there is a wheat field they planted on the edge of the village against the mound, and there is a hut next to them, which is also left by them. It is basically abandoned now. If you want to find something, you can go to have a look."

"Thank you, Father." Liang En and Joan of Arc saluted at the same time, and then left the church. I have to say that the previous donation of [-] euros to this church is still very valuable, otherwise this priest would not It takes so much energy to search for information.

The next goal was naturally to go straight to the wheat field. After all, there were only two people missing and a car, and that small house was absolutely impossible to fit a car.

Not to mention that the residents have changed three waves in so many years, even if the brothers really left some information back then, it is almost impossible to find it now.

"This building is a bit strange." After Liang En walked into the dilapidated building, he immediately noticed something was wrong. "Why are the building materials so good in such a remote room?"

The huts on the edge of the fields like this are often the owners of the fields to watch over the crops, so under normal circumstances the houses will be built relatively simple.

So the semi-underground guard's residence with walls at least half a meter thick seems a bit too extravagant, not to mention that the two brothers don't seem to be very hardworking people.

"This place is very likely to be a fortification left over from the Spanish Civil War." After inspecting the house with a leaky roof, Liang En suddenly discovered the clue.

Because the ground inside the house is obviously higher than the outside of the house, and after digging with a shovel, it can be clearly seen that the ground of the house is padded, and there is a circle of wood and gravel that is as thick as an arm. barrier.

What's more, when the two men took out a portable metal detector from their bag for inspection, various metal fragments including bullet casings and shrapnel were dug out from the rammed earth ground.

"You're right, this place looks like it was remodeled from a former bunker." Looking at the rusty fragments, Joan nodded, and then looked out of the broken window .

"But I don't know what's the point of building a bunker here. Although this place has hills on one side and farmland on the other, it doesn't have any military value at all in my opinion."

Under normal circumstances, a bunker should cooperate with a series of fortifications to become a part of a certain defense system to guard a certain location, but the location of this bunker is very abnormal now.

Because its location is not at any strategic point at all, and it is not too close to the village, so it is not part of the village's defense system.

In archaeology, many anomalies often represent the harbinger of some kind of discovery, so Liang En and Joan of Arc quickly got out of the house, and then searched around.

Soon, they discovered that seven or eight meters away from the building, there was a road remnant formed by temporary rammed earth extending towards the interior of the hilly area.

While most of the road is now integrated into the surrounding nature, some low-lying areas still retain marks from when gravel and wood were used to level the road.

"It seems that there should be key buildings like command posts or ammunition depots." Looking at the road, Liang En quickly remembered what the priest said earlier.

According to the priest.During the civil war that year, the village was on the front line, so most of the people in the village fled, and did not return until after the war.

Therefore, if someone really wanted to build something near the village at that time, the villagers in the village may not find out the extra buildings built during the war.

Of course, if the building is in a village or a place where villagers are active, villagers may find it, but people may not care about things that people don't know if they appear in places far away from people's activities.

The reason for the construction of fortifications here is also very simple. Compared with the conspicuous target like the village, the concealment in the wild is obviously much better, so it is completely understandable that some important facilities are built here.

Soon, Liang En and Joan of Arc came to the end of the road, and found a mound at the end of the road that was not much different from the surrounding mounds.

Although the height and size of this mound look the same as the surrounding ones, anyone with a little knowledge of geography will feel that this mound is very abrupt, as if it emerged directly from the valley.

And the reaction of the metal detector after going on the metal detector also confirmed Liang En's conjecture. There was a strong metal reaction on one side of this mound, which was obviously not an ordinary mound.

"Obviously, this should be a big bunker." Liang En made a judgment immediately after using the metal detector to roughly mark the reaction that produced metal.

"This metal door is supposed to be able to drive a truck in, and there is too much dirt and stones piled up outside, so we may need to find some people to help. The two of us will definitely not be able to dig here."
