Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 854 Excavation
As a luxury hotel, the hotel converted from the monastery naturally has all kinds of facilities. After making a phone call, Liang En and the others found an electric car with a lifting platform on it.

After turning on the power, Liang En and the others manipulated the platform to slowly rise to the roof position, and then carefully removed the transparent plexiglass on it.

After finishing all the preparations, the two put on the gas masks they had prepared before, then nodded to each other and turned on the metal detectors in their hands.

The moment the metal detector in his hand was turned on, the metal detector beeped crazily, as if it was placed directly between a pile of metal blocks.

"Is there nothing in here?" After hearing the siren, Joan subconsciously looked behind her, and the nearest metal desk lamp was several meters away from them.

"I'm sure it's not steel bars." Liang En smiled slightly and said, "And we can find that the dome is not made of stone, but lightweight gypsum board."

"While light-weight plasterboards were used in those days to renovate and especially renovate these old buildings, it was rare to have the entire roof section covered like this."

"So the plasterboard here has only one function, which is to hide the stone arches that support the entire dome. And if they are stone arches, it means that there is a lot of space here."

"What you said makes sense, so what should we do next, break this plasterboard?" Joan of Arc said, looking at the dusty plasterboard in front of her.

"However, if this is the case, it will be more troublesome. After all, I read the information before and said that this mural can be regarded as an antique. If it is destroyed, it may cause some trouble."

The reason why I only use the word trouble is because this mural is from the end of the 18th century, and then it was rebuilt many times in the middle, so the overall cultural relic rating is not high at all, even if it is destroyed, it will not cause too much trouble.

"I won't destroy the mural, you know this kind of work doesn't match my personality." Liang En stretched out his hand and pressed it on the plasterboard on which the mural was painted, and then activated his extraordinary power.

As the extraordinary power in the card was output to the gypsum board through Liang En's arm, the gypsum board began to deform rapidly and exposed the things behind it.

"Sure enough, the treasure is really here." Looking at the various textile packages or wooden boxes one by one, Joan's eyes were bigger, and then she patted Liang En on the shoulder. "You're right, the other party really put this thing on the roof."

"Actually, this is just one of several places I guessed." Liang En took the package closest to him from the stone arch and stuffed it into the space while talking, "Okay, it's time for us to start working. "

The next work for the two parties is very simple, that is, Liang En uses extraordinary strength to continuously open a piece of plasterboard, and then Joan of Arc and Liang En work together to fix the things that are fixed in the gaps in the stone arches that support the dome with wood and metal. remove.

The opponent's things here are very full, and there is even a feeling that it is about to overflow. Thanks to Liang En's extraordinary strength, they can form a space, so they can continue to fight without climbing up and down.

"How did that group of people put this thing there?" After more than half an hour of work, Joan looked at a huge box stuck in the gap between the stone arches and subconsciously complained.

The box seemed to be about the same size as Joan of Arc, and when they moved the box down, they also realized that if it was replaced by ordinary people, at least two people would be needed to carry it to that place.

Considering that this hall is a place where people come and go, even if the attendant of Queen Mary had a response in the monastery, it would be very difficult to put so many things on the shelves in a short time without a sound.

"What if they didn't put things up from below?" Liang En looked at the emptied space on the roof and said, because many places were vacated, so some previously hidden structures were exposed.

"Isn't it from below?" Joan asked in confusion, "I always thought that this thing was erected from below, and then these gypsum boards were installed on the outside and painted on it."

"The method you mentioned is very reasonable, and it is also very valuable in disguise. The only problem is that if there are people inside, it is equivalent to clearly telling others that there is a ghost here." Liang En shrugged and said.

"Think about it, originally it was a simple hall dome, and then one day it suddenly turned into a construction site, and then a layer of plasterboard began to be inlaid and painted on it, which is hard not to attract people's attention."

"Especially the era when these East XZs were here was not considered a stable era, and it is a bit too suspicious to suddenly renovate the monastery amidst such chaos."

"You're right, so how do you think the other party managed to put this pile of things up there? Especially considering that the people hiding things are just normal human beings, and it's impossible for one person like us to have the power of several people."

Joan gestured to the largest box that had been carried before and said.

"The weight of this thing is far beyond our previous imagination, so it is difficult for me to understand how to put this thing in place by manpower without the current series of machinery and equipment."

"It's very simple. The other party started the work directly from the second floor, which is not only secretive, but also much easier to do." Liang En said while raising the flashlight in his hand to shine on the real ceiling.

"Pay attention to the place I hit with the light of the flashlight. This place is obviously a supplement, and there are some iron rings embedded in the wall on the roof. Most likely, they are used to hang pulleys and ropes."

"I understand, they should use a combination of ropes and pulleys to hang things down from the second floor, and then put them in place." Joan of Arc is actually a very smart person, so Liang En just reminded her a little and she understood .

"And it's different from the plan I guessed just now. This plan is very secretive. If you consider that there is an internal response to the other party in the monastery, they can completely hide on the second floor to complete this work."

"Yes, I guessed the same way. But this space is definitely not found temporarily." Liang En reminded another point at this time.

"At least judging from the traces of the newly added ceiling above, the ceiling should have been a deliberately repaired secret door, but after the treasures were hidden, they directly sealed the secret door with bricks and stones."

For these treasures of the royal family, the safety of their storage is very important, so it is normal to choose to completely seal the entrance with bricks and stones.

Compared with a hidden secret door, the entrance and exit that are completely blocked with bricks and stones are the safest, no matter from the perspective of privacy or from the perspective of anti-theft.

Because the work surface is really small, it took Liang En and Joan of Arc two hours to take out the valuable things inside and stuff them into the space.

"It's finally finished." After confirming that there was nothing left in the space on the ceiling, Liang Enchang heaved a sigh of relief. "Let's figure out what it is next."
