Chapter 309 Mysterious Metal Door
When the cave entrance was completely revealed, everyone, including Gu Xiaohei who was at the bottom of the well, could see the entire entrance clearly.
Let’s call it a hole, but it’s more appropriate to call it a pit.
why?
Because the pit is only about one meter deep.
When the pit was fully revealed to everyone, they saw that what was piled in the pit was actually some gold, silver and jewelry.
This situation is completely different from what Gu Ranle had previously guessed.
She originally thought that after opening it, there might be some research institute inside, but she never expected that it would contain all these gold, silver and treasures!
After all this effort, you only found a place to hide treasure?
The point is, there isn't that much treasure, so is it necessary to mobilize so many troops and go to so much trouble?
The more Gu Ranle thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was unreasonable.
Maybe this is just a trick.
She thought about it for a while and decided to go down and take a look in person.
"You guys stay alert up there, I'll go down and take a look at the situation."
"Miss, let me go down." The bodyguard captain said hurriedly.
Gu Ranle insisted: "Just be careful up there, I'll go down."
She didn't jump down directly, but grabbed the wire rope and moved down little by little.
When her feet were about to touch the ground, she did not step down completely at once, but tentatively increased her strength slowly.
After making sure that the ground below could bear the weight, she finally landed completely.
She brought a flashlight with her, and with it she could see the situation at the bottom of the well clearly.
The space under the well is not large, only about 2.5 meters high, 4 meters long and 3 meters wide.
The pit that was just revealed is a square with a side length of about 80 centimeters.
Gu Xiaohei was staring at the gold, silver and treasures in the pit, his eyes wide open and his saliva dripping, and he didn't even notice Gu Ranle coming down.
Gu Ranle walked over and suddenly kicked it into the pit from behind.
Gu Xiaohei was completely unprepared and plunged headfirst into the pit.
It stayed in the pit for a long time before it jumped up and bared its teeth at Gu Ranle. It looked as if it wanted to eat Gu Ranle alive.
Gu Ranle smiled at it and said, "I see that you like these treasures very much, so I will send you down directly so that you can have a close contact with them. How about it? Doesn't it feel great?"
Gu Xiaohei was so angry that he wanted to bite Gu Ranle, but when he looked down, he saw that he had bitten a gold bar in his mouth.
It bit the gold bar, and it looked like it was reluctant to let go. While biting it, it looked up at Gu Ranle from time to time. There was anger and greed for the gold bar in its eyes.
Gu Ranle couldn't help laughing when she saw its appearance, thinking that Gu Xiaohei was really a money-grubber.
She squatted down and carefully observed the gold, silver and treasures in the pit.
Although these treasures are not numerous, each one looks quite exquisite.
There are golden bars, shining brightly under the light.
There are silver items with peculiar shapes, on which the patterns are carved lifelike.
There are also some jewels that exude charming brilliance.
She squatted down and looked carefully at the gold and silver treasures. These seemed to be popular styles in the market and should be quite old.
Just then, she heard the voice of the bodyguard captain from above: "Miss, are you okay?"
Gu Ranle replied: "I'm fine, you guys continue to be on guard up there."
At this moment, looking at Gu Xiaohei again, his expression was simply both infuriating and funny.
I saw that its mouth was full of gold bars, not more, not less, exactly five.
The gold bars were stuffed tightly in its mouth, and its cheeks were bulging. It could hardly hold on to the gold bars, but it still held on tightly with all its might, as if the gold bars would fly away if it let go.
He is really greedy!
Gu Ranle looked at its appearance and couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart.
However, no one knows who hid these gold, silver and treasures at the bottom of the well.
It would seem inappropriate to just take it away like that, right?
After all, this is not your own thing, and it would be bad if it causes any trouble.
She thought for a moment, raised her foot, kicked Gu Xiaohei's round butt, and said, "You are a dog, what do you need all this gold for? It can't be eaten or drunk, and it's better than meat and bones. Put it down quickly, and I will buy you a lot of meat and bones later so that you can eat as much as you want."
It would have been fine if she hadn't said this. After she said this, Gu Xiaohei simply lay down on the treasures, pressing his whole body tightly against the pile of treasures, with his head raised high, as if saying "These are all mine, no one can take them away", and his little eyes were full of vigilance and greed.
Gu Ranle couldn't communicate with it now and couldn't guess what it was thinking.
She raised her hand and pinched her brows with a headache, muttering in her heart: Why didn't I realize that this dog was so greedy before? Usually he looked quite smart and cute, but when he was in front of this treasure, he turned into a dog.
Forget it, just let it go.
Anyway, it can only bite with its mouth, and at most it can only bite five gold bars. Can it move all the treasures in this pit?
Gu Ranle ignored the money-obsessed Gu Xiaohei in the pit and began to look around the bottom of the well, observing carefully.
The space at the bottom of the well is not big and the light is dim, but with the light of the lamp, you can still see clearly.
Gu Ranle observed and analyzed silently in his mind.
After a careful inspection, her eyes lit up and she had an idea. She looked up and shouted, "Bring me two bamboo poles. They must be at least 4 meters long."
When she came, she noticed that there was a lush bamboo forest outside the yard. The bamboos were thick and long, so it would definitely not be a problem to find two bamboo poles more than four meters long.
After a while, the bodyguard came back with two bamboo poles.
Gu Xiaohei heard the noise, raised his head, looked at Gu Ranle with a puzzled look, and wondered: What is this woman thinking? Is she trying to use this bamboo pole to drive me away from the treasure?
Gu Ranle calmly placed two bamboo poles on the buttons at the four corners.
Her movements were steady and skillful, her eyes were focused and determined, and every move she made revealed confidence.
As the last button was pressed, the already small space underground suddenly shook slightly, and then a loud "crash" was heard.
The sound was really loud, it was no exaggeration to say it was a bang, even the bodyguards standing on the well could hear it clearly, and they all looked down into the well nervously.
After the loud noise, something strange appeared on the east wall.
What originally looked like an ordinary, featureless earth wall was now slowly moving to both sides, like two heavy doors slowly opening.
As the earth wall moved, an old smell wafted over, as if a secret that had been buried for many years was about to be revealed.
When the earth wall was completely removed, a metal door with fine workmanship and excellent structure appeared in front of Gu Ranle and Gu Xiaohei.
This metal door looks very heavy, with some strange patterns and symbols on it, exuding a mysterious atmosphere that makes people want to explore what is hidden behind this door.
Gu Ranle stared at the metal door in front of him, his eyes full of confusion and curiosity, and his heart seemed to be gently pulled by an invisible hand.
The metal door stood there coldly, exuding a mysterious atmosphere, as if silently provoking her: Do you want to know what's hidden behind me? Open me if you can!
What's hiding behind this metal door?
Various speculations emerged in Gu Ranle's mind.
Could it be more treasures piled up like mountains, glittering gold, dazzling jewels, so much that it would dazzle the eyes?
Or maybe, are they some unknown secrets, such as long-lost ancient books, mysterious ancient skills, or even some shocking discoveries that could change the world?
Thinking of this, Gu Ranle could no longer hold back and walked forward.
She moved closer to the metal door and observed it carefully without blinking, not missing any tiny corner, trying to find a way to open this seemingly flawless door.
But this metal door was like an airtight iron plate, with no gaps at all, and there was no place to start. It was like a stubborn guard, determined not to let her enter the world behind.
Gu Ranle couldn't help but frowned, and began to wonder in his heart: What should I do? How can I open this door? Is it possible to just watch the secret inside without being able to uncover it?
Suddenly, her eyes, as if drawn by a magnet, fell on a strange symbol on the metal door.
This symbol was crooked and had an indescribable weirdness. Gu Ranle felt that this symbol was very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where exactly.
She quickly closed her eyes and tried hard to search in the ocean of memory.
It was like a movie playing in my mind, with scenes from the books and picture albums I had read flashing through my mind.
After a while, she suddenly opened her eyes with excitement flashing in her eyes. She remembered that this symbol was very similar to a mechanism pattern she saw in a book. Maybe this was the key to opening the door!
Having said that, she immediately began to carefully search for the mechanism related to the symbol on the metal door.
She touched here and pressed there, not leaving out any possible place.
After some careful searching, she finally found a hidden button in an inconspicuous corner.
She took a deep breath, calmed herself, and then slowly pressed the button.
As the button was pressed, the metal door made a low roar, as if it was a sigh after years of sleep, and then slowly opened.
The sound of the metal door opening startled Gu Xiaohei so much that the gold in his mouth fell to the ground with a "click", but he was unaware of it. He stared at the door with his dog eyes, as if he was under a spell.
Seeing this, Gu Ranle quickly took two steps back and stood firmly aside, fearing that something dangerous would suddenly jump out from behind the door and hurt him.
Looking at Gu Xiaohei again, he was still standing there like a wooden stake.
Gu Ranle was both angry and amused. He quickly walked over, grabbed the dog's head, and threw it into the corner like a rag doll.
At this moment, the mysterious door finally opened completely.
