Chapter 710: San Teodoro

Mindoro Island is taken from the Spanish word minadeoro, which means "land of gold mines." When the Spanish colonized the Philippines, several gold mines were discovered on this island, so this island was installed. A name.

  Mindoro Island is the fifth largest island in the Philippines. It is about 160 kilometers long from north to south and 84 kilometers wide from east to west. The 140-kilometer high Lorraine range runs through the north and south of the island. The highest peak of the High Lorraine Mountains is the Alcon Mountain in the northeast of the mountain range, which is 2585 meters above sea level.

There are less than 700,000 Filipinos living on this island with an area of ​​less than 10,000 square kilometers, but most of these residents live in the coastal area. In the high Lorraine Mountains in the middle of the island, there are only a few people who live on hunting. Aboriginal people, so most of the island is quite primitive.

   The yacht rented by Morris departed from Manila, and it took more than three hours to arrive at Port Galera, the northernmost port city on Mindoro Island. The capital city of the entire Mindoro Island is Calapan in Eastern Mindoro Province, but the Port of Galera is the most prosperous port city with the largest number of people and the best scenery on the entire island.

  The yacht hasn’t even entered the port. I saw hundreds of small and medium-sized yachts in the strait outside. The water here is extremely clear, and the underwater coral reefs can even be seen clearly through the water several meters deep.

   Grid stood on the deck of the bow and looked at the seawater here and exclaimed: "The quality of the seawater here is really good, not at all better than Hawaii. I really want to go for a swim."

"Hehe, just go down if you want to go down. Isn't this easy? How about you stay here for diving and swimming after you arrive at Port Galera, I will take Chris and the others into the mountain, and we will pick you up when we come out of the mountain. "

   Grid bit his finger for a while and looked at the clear water, then looked at Yang Jing again, appearing hesitant. Obviously, the sea water here is really temptation for her.

  The Port of Galera is located at the northernmost tip of Mindoro Island. Today, Yang Jing and the others came from Manila. They ran for more than 70 nautical miles on the sea, so they only ran for three hours. If Batangas across the Karafa Strait came over, it wouldn't take even an hour.

Even though Port Galera is a port city, this city is the most famous for its tourism industry. The local Sabang Bay has been listed as a Man and Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO since 1973. The bay has the best in Asia. The diversified coral reef is a world-renowned diving resort.

   This is also the reason why so many yachts can be seen here. These yachts are rented locally by diving enthusiasts from all over the world and then come here to dive.

The coral reefs in Sabang Bay are even comparable to those in Cyprus. Although they are not as big as the Great Barrier Reef in the Great Coral Sea in eastern Australia, there are as many types of coral reefs as there are.

  Gege is also a girl who likes diving very much, so when she sees such a beautiful coral reef, where can she move her feet?

"I said my daughter-in-law, don't worry about it. Entering the mountain is not a good thing. There are all primitive forests and there are no roads. There are also various bites, snakes, spiders in the mountains... ...If you don’t pay attention, it will be troublesome if you get a bite. I know you want to follow me into the mountains to see what secrets are hidden in those places, but this is also easy to say, the big deal is when I get to the place, I just use the satellite Just make a video connection with you on the phone."

"Hmm..." Grid looked at the azure blue water hesitantly, and finally gritted his teeth and nodded, "Well, I'll stay here with Luoweisha and the others. But you can get it. Remember, you have to give me a video connection at that time, if you forget, you won’t be allowed to sleep after you come back!"

   This punishment is harsh enough, so don’t forget the video connection!

   The yacht docked at the yacht pier in Sabang Bay. As for the Galera Port in the south, it doesn't matter whether it goes or not. Sabang Bay is the essence of this port city. Luxury hotels can be found everywhere, as are many restaurants and bars. And because it is a well-known tourist destination throughout the Philippines, the security here is quite good.

Grid’s two female bodyguards, Lovisha and Valentina, are both from Norway in Northern Europe. They were formerly two female special forces in the Norwegian female special forces "Hunter Corps" and participated in the security of Afghanistan and Iraq. Before they were dug up by Chris at the end of last year, the two of them fought in Syria for two months.

   But Yang Jing didn't just keep Luo Weisha and Valentina, but also left Mark, Sean, Thomas, Jackson and Brian from the Morris team. This time, we won't need so many people to enter the mountain. Keeping five of them can also increase Grid's safety and defense capabilities.

   After getting off the boat, Yang Jing left the Shabang Bay wharf with seven bodyguards, took three taxis all the way south and directly into Galera Port.

  Mindoro Island is actually a rather primitive island. It is only prosperous in the coastal area. As for the high Lorraine Mountains in the inland, it is actually a barren area, not to mention roads, even people can hardly be seen.

   And the two places recorded in Alfred's notes are all located in the high Lorraine Mountains, and one north and one south, the straight line distance between them is more than 60 kilometers. Therefore, in order to complete the survey of these two locations in a short period of time, it is obviously inappropriate to use ground transportation, so they have to enter the Port of Galera to rent a medium-sized helicopter and enter the high Lorraine Mountains from the air. Go find those two hidden places.

   And one of the most critical reasons for choosing to use a helicopter is that Yang Jing judged that the locations and coordinates recorded in the two notebooks of Alfred were probably not so accurate.

   Yang Jing used his appraisal skills to appraise the two notebooks and determined that the two notebooks were written by Alfred himself. At the same time, he also confirmed that Alfred wrote the two notebooks in 1946.

   And the fall of that year happened to be the time of Alfred's death, that is to say, these two notebooks should have been written by Alfred before his death. However, in the 1940s ~www.readwn.com~ there was no satellite positioning at all. In that era, if you wanted to accurately locate a location, you could only locate it on a large-scale map.

   The accuracy of the coordinates generated by positioning against the map is definitely not as good as the current satellite positioning system. Therefore, if you want to find the exact location, you need to explore it in the air first.

  According to the coordinates of that era, it is difficult to find a hidden location in the vast mountains, especially these locations have been in the mountains for more than 70 years. It's like the first location Yang Jing got in the notebook, which is the location of Kabogao in Luzon. There are only two hints of "Luzon Island" and "Kabogao" in the notebook, plus The deciphered coordinates, even if you look for it against a high-definition satellite map, you can only see the vast forest sea, and nothing else.

   Kabogao is a small city, but it is in the middle of a mountain, no matter how small it is, if you can't locate it accurately, you can't find the hidden place in Kabogao.

   As for the two hidden locations on Mindoro Island, they are almost the same as Kabu Gao. Even with the coordinates, from the satellite map, there are no useful clues except that the tree is the river.

It's like the first hidden place Yang Jing and the others are about to find are the names of "Mindoro Island" and "San Teodoro". After the name of San Teodoro, there are still deciphered places. One of the coordinates-N13.31E120.94.

   Although he could fly there directly with the exact coordinates, Yang Jing wanted to take a closer look at the hidden place in the air, so that he could also accumulate some experience for finding other hidden places.
