Chapter 145 Ancient Mark
The seven people started climbing along the trail. In addition to them, there were many young people, and it looked like they were all organized through travel agencies.
There are not many tall trees in Caowan Mountain, so when you climb up and look down, you will see a very good open view in all directions. Many people took photos with their mobile phones along the way.
"Uncle Junior Master, if the treasure of the Overlord of Western Chu really exists, how much would it be worth if it was discovered?"
"Don't think so much. No matter how valuable it is, it doesn't belong to any individual, but to the country. But if you can solve the mystery of Bao Xiangyu's treasure, then you can be famous in history."
Li Mo smiled and continued: "Maybe the country will reward you heavily."
Chen Xiaojun scratched his head and said with a simple smile: "I don't understand that stuff either. I'm just curious, so I just asked."
"This Caowan Mountain is only about 70 meters above sea level, so we climbed up in one go."
A few people started to exert their strength. Chen Xiaojun and the others were all retired from the army. This kind of mountaineering was a trivial matter to them. As for Li Mo, his speed not only did not fall behind, but also gradually accelerated.
"Old Wolf, you are most familiar with the boss. What did he do before? This climbing speed is not something ordinary people can achieve." The brown bear caught up with Xiaojun and asked. They could only look at Li Mo's back now.
"I used to be a student."
Chen Xiaojun thought about it, Li Mo seemed to be just a pure student before.
"Don't ask so many questions. You will have nothing to worry about after working with the boss."
"Hurry up and follow the boss. It's so shameful. We are all so far behind him."
The six men had to speed up again.
When Li Mo climbed to the top of the mountain, there were more than ten people on top. Some of them were taking selfies, and some were forming a circle to study something on the ground.
Historical records record that on the night before Xiang Yu launched his army, in order to repay the people of Xiangli Village, he ordered his soldiers to dig pits near Caowan Mountain in Xiangli overnight and bury twelve golden gongs.
In order to facilitate his future search and to prevent the gold gong from being stolen, Xiang Yu carved a series of treasure map codes on Caowan Mountain in the east of the village. As long as these mysterious characters are deciphered, he can find ten treasures buried in the mountains and forests.
Two-sided gold gong.
Li Mo walked over, he wanted to see what the password to the legendary treasure map was.
There is an irregular pentagonal stone on the ground in front of me, about 5 meters long and 3 meters wide. On this big stone, there are ancient patterns of different shades and sizes, which neither look like seal characters nor seal characters.
Like bronze inscriptions, this ancient mark is the mysterious treasure-hunting character left by the legendary Xiang Yu. If you crack it, you can find the treasure of the twelve-sided golden gong.
Li Mo looked at it for a while and walked out of the crowd. After two thousand years, maybe this mysterious character was just a rumor and had nothing to do with Xiang Yu's treasure of twelve-sided gold gongs in historical records.
"Boss, do you exercise every day?" Chen Xiaojun and the others climbed to the top of the mountain, sweating on their heads and panting.
"Keep running every day, rain or shine." Li Mo said seriously.
The six people immediately showed admiration. No wonder they have achieved such great achievements at such a young age.
Li Mo climbed high and looked far into the distance. The fields, lakes, old streets, and villages at the foot of the mountain gave him a sense of spiritual peace and relaxation.
"Handsome guy, could you please take a photo for us."
A woman in her twenties came over to say hello.
"Okay." Li Mo waited for the six tourists to get into formation and took a few photos. "Take a look. If it doesn't look good, I'll change the angle."
Those people looked at it and said it was okay and expressed their thanks to him.
"Uncle Master, were those mysterious symbols carved by Xiang Yu himself?" Chen Xiaojun bounced around Li Mo a few times and exhaled a few long breaths.
"If I could travel back two thousand years, I would definitely ask Xiang Yu."
"If Xiang Yu really carved this, maybe this stone is also an antique."
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Li Mo turned around and looked again. His strange eyes fell on the stone, and a surprising scene happened.
A deep golden halo is transmitted from the surface of the stone, forming an oval light curtain covering the stone.
The special history and special imprint give this stone a special identity.
There is no doubt that the mysterious symbols on the surface of this stone must have been carved during the Qin and Han Dynasties, but it is unknown if Xiang Yu himself did not carve them himself.
Li Mo did not look away, but continued to penetrate. The part of the stone that was exposed above the ground seemed to be a bit much, but there was not much hidden underground.
I originally thought that the penetrating ability of the special pupils would be in vain, but after the sight penetrated about 60 centimeters deep, it penetrated all at once.
There is a layer of soil under the stone. After penetrating, the line of sight does not encounter much resistance and can continue to penetrate.
When it penetrated nearly one meter underground again, it encountered an obstacle. The sight of the strange pupils was completely blocked and could no longer penetrate at all.
Under the perspective of his eyes, what blocked his sight was not a stone, but... but a metal-like object with an area of more than two square meters.
Li Mo's eyes returned to normal, and he stood there deep in thought.
Obviously the metal object under the soil layer was not buried by someone later, because it has no meaning.
If it was buried by ancient people, the order should be to bury the metal object first, then bury a one-meter-deep soil layer on top, and finally move a stone to cover it and carve the so-called mysterious symbols.
Is there anything else underneath the metal object?
It's a pity that my clairvoyance ability is not that good yet.
"Uncle Master, there are more and more people, do we want to go down the mountain?"
Li Mo looked at the stone with the ancient imprint again, and temporarily hid the doubt in his heart. The most important thing now is to find the ironclad evidence of the twelve-sided golden gong left by Xiang Yu first, and the rest can be figured out slowly.
"Let's go, let's go shopping down the mountain. It's only three o'clock in the afternoon. There's no rush to go back to the hotel."
The seven of them returned to the foot of the mountain and walked around the lake.
"Xiaojun, the famous director Zhang De'an is going to Chenjiacun to look for materials on traditional martial arts. Did senior brother tell you?"
"You called me a few days ago to tell me that my dad and grandpa have repeatedly told me to follow you and do things well. Junior uncle, thank you and uncle, it is our Chen family's ancestor who can carry forward Chen's Bajiquan.
It’s been a lifelong wish, and now I finally see hope.”
"One family does not speak two languages, and any traditional martial arts cannot be passed down and carried forward by one person alone. It requires everyone to work together. If it can be selected by Director Zhang Da this time, it will be very important for Chen
The publicity of Baji Quan will play a very big role."
Li Mo thought for a moment and then said, "There are some things that I can't tell my senior brothers directly for fear that they will feel burdened. But you can ask more about the progress over there. If you encounter difficulties and need financial support, you should follow me in time.
