Li An stepped up a few steps, walked to the front of the cave, and looked inside carefully, and found that it was very dim and simply couldn’t see what was there.

The opening of the hole was not big, and only allowed one person to crawl in with a bow. Because the inside is too dark, the situation is not very clear, so people feel a little dazed.

“The hole is too small. Continue to dig and make the hole larger. At least people should be able to walk straight in.”

Li An is worried that the hole is too small, and the oxygen content will be insufficient. Therefore, it is required to dig the hole larger to allow more air to enter, so as to ensure that people can enter.

“Yes, general.”

Dozens of recruits, holding tools, began to expand the hole.

Li An looked towards the recruits of the medical team standing aside and asked, “Did you find this hole?”

“Yes, general, a few of us originally planned to climb up from here to collect medicine. As a result, we stepped on a large hole in a stone. We dug a bit and found that the bigger the dug, the faster we reported.”

Li An nodded, took a few steps back, carefully observed the surrounding terrain, and suddenly made a new discovery.

He suddenly felt that this East Valley does not seem to be a masterpiece of nature, but is full of artificially carved traces.

At least, the valley here is not so large, it was artificially enlarged, and the enlarged part is near the cave here.

“You found it, Donggu was artificially enlarged, originally not at all such a large area.”

Li An looked towards several confidant generals, expressed their views.

Obviously the generals had not paid attention to this problem, and quickly looked at all around.

“The cliffs here are very unusual. They are indeed artificially excavated, but for some years, the traces are covered by trees and vines.”

“Yes! At least the south side of the entire valley was once dug.”

“True didn’t expect, the valley here was dug manually, but why did they dig a valley here? Is it refuge? Or is it a seclusion? Or is it because of this cave?”

“Isn’t it really a treasure trove!”

The generals also gossip.

Li An looked towards the recruits who are digging deep into the cave, whispering: “Whether it is a treasure trove or not, it will be clear later if I go in and see.”

The recruits digged very hard. Soon, the opening, which was originally only 3 feet square, was enlarged several times. More sunlight was able to enter the cave, and the situation inside was much clearer.

“Eldest Brother, the rock walls inside seem to have been blackened by fire. It seems that some people used to cook a fire inside.”

Li Kunxiong speculated.

“Impossible, cooking on fire shouldn’t be so dark, it seems to be on fire.”

“If there is a fire, there must be someone burned to death, the body is gone, and the bones must be still there.”

Li An sees that the hole is big enough, ordered: “Light the torch, go in and see.”

Several recruits were ordered to ignite the torch, and Li An picked up a torch and took the lead into the cave.

“Eldest Brother be careful, the situation inside is unknown.”

Li An disagreed and said: “It’s been so many years, what dangers can come, follow me.”

Under the leadership of Li An, the public raised the torch in turn and slowly walked into the cave.

The cave at this time has been ventilated for a long time, so Li An is not worried about suffocation, moreover, they still hold torch? As long as the torch is not extinguished, it means that the oxygen in it is enough, don’t worry about suffocation.

Entering the cave, Li An found that the space inside was much larger than he thought. The straight passage was two zhang wide and more than a foot high. In order to increase the load-bearing capacity, the top was cut into an arc.

The walls here do not have the true nature of rocks, but are smoked to black. It looks like it has lost a fire. There is a sense of depression when people walk inside. Because of the isolation from the outside, the air inside is very cold and outside. It’s hot summer, and the channel looks like cold autumn.

There are nearly 100 steps in the passage. After walking through the 100-step passage, what appears in front of Li An and the others is a huge space of twenty zhang, and at the top of this huge space, there are actually 7 shots of light. So that the entire space is not too dark.

In other words, this space is ventilated with the outside world, and people can survive here.

However, the scene of this space shocked Li An and the others. A white skeleton fell 7 on the ground and 8 on the ground, it looked quite scary.

Li An roughly counted, the number of these corpses is more than 1000, and what is the reason that caused these people to die here? This problem, Li An and the people under his command are naturally unable to know.

“General, there are more than 1000 bones and wreckage of weapons. It seems that there has been a bloody battle here.”

“Yes, there are 2 corpses held tightly together. The dagger in the hand of one corpse is still there. It is inserted in the heart of the other corpse. It is a fight.”

“Wuyang, there is a fight here, is it a vendetta? Or for snatching treasure?”

Li An shook his head gently: “We have no way of knowing what happened here, but we might get some answers by wiping off the black ash on the rock wall.”

He said that he drew his dagger around his waist and scraped the black dust from the rock wall.

“Golden stone, is it a gold mine?”

At the moment when Li An scraped the black and gray rocks, everyone’s eyes were bright.

The golden rock wall makes everyone immediately think of the gold mine, and only if it used to be a gold mine, can we better explain why there are people who are here to fight for the mining rights of the gold mine, maybe it is the best Reason.

“Human beings will die for riches, just as birds will for food, it seems that the bones inside are all for this gold mine.”

Li An shook his head gently and made some emotions.

“Eldest Brother, there is a corpse here with a piece of gold in his hand.”

Li Feiyu forcibly broke apart the fingers of a corpse, and pulled out the golden nuggets of golden light from inside.

Li An took the small gold nugget and found that it was an irregularly shaped smelting gold nugget, like it had just been taken out of the furnace, and could be cast in the future. This seems to prove that this should be a gold mine, and, also With smelting facilities.

In all around of this hall, there are 6 passages, which lead to 6 different directions. Because the light is not too good, I can’t see clearly what is in these 6 channels.

Li An walked a few steps in the hall, feeling something stepped under his feet, leaned over and squatted down, and picked up the objects under his feet.

“The residue of burning fire oil, and coking coal particles.”

Li An is no stranger to these two distinct things and recognized them at a glance.

Coking coal is an important material used for smelting gold mines for purification. But is kerosene dry and so on? Also used for smelting?

‘No, some people ignited the fire oil intentionally, intending to completely destroy this mine. ‘

Li An quickly made a new judgment and slowly stood up.

“Everyone split up to see what else is here?”

Li An gave the order softly, and the generals, a group of 2 3 people, went to different tunnels to see what was inside.

“Eldest Brother, this scorched guy, seems to be a melting pot. At that time, there was one in the village of White Wolf, from the Blacksmith Zhang family in the south of the village.”

Li Kunxiong held torch and found an important big guy from an unremarkable corner.

Li An walked over quickly. If you look closely, it really looks like a furnace. Although it is very difficult to deal with, the rough appearance is still there.

“That’s right, there are furnaces and gold nuggets, which is enough to show that it is indeed a gold mine.”

Li An felt very excited when she found the baby.

“Eldest Brother, the furnace of the Blacksmith Zhang family in White Wolf Village is placed in the yard, and a small pergola is enough. They actually put the furnace in the cave. It seems to prevent them from being discovered!”

Li Kunxiong speculated.

Li An laughed, gently nodded: “It is indeed possible, but Blacksmith Zhang put the furnace in the yard to cool down, and the situation is the same here.”

“Eldest Brother said that the cave is really cool inside, and the furnace gold inside is really cooler than the outside.”

Li An smiled at the corner of his mouth, calmly waiting for the return of his men and women.

“General, it is a mine, and the golden light of the rock wall is shining. It is undoubtedly a gold mine.”

“General, the roadway we are looking at is also a gold mine.”

“General, so is ours.”

The five groups of people returned one after another and found all gold mines, which made Li An confirm his judgment more. This is an abandoned gold mine, and it obviously has the value of continuing mining.

“Eldest Brother, Shou Yu and 2 Niu haven’t returned yet?”

The five groups of horses returned one after another. After a while, Lifei Shouyu and Zhang Erniu had not returned.

“It seems that they should have made a bigger discovery.”

Li An knows that these 2 people will not have any accidents, and must be dragged down by important circumstances.

“Eldest Brother, let’s go over and see together?”

The generals are no longer afraid, but full of curiosity.

Li An gently nodded: “Shou Yu, they must have made an important discovery. Let’s take a look.”

After talking, he took a dozen confidants and walked to the alley on the left.

“Wuyang, inside is a warehouse, there are many things, weapons, gold nuggets, firewood, coke, a lot, we are rich.”

Lifei Shouyu hurried over, excited.

Li An was overjoyed and busy: “There are so many good things, let’s go and have a look.”

A group of more than ten people quickly ran to the warehouse location.

Here the warehouse not at all was affected by the fire, and inside it were large densely packed boxes, both woody and metallic.

“Wuyang, you see, this piece is full of coke, and this is also the item most displayed here.”

“Well, yes, it’s all good coke, used for smelting.”

Li An picked up a piece of coke and placed it in front of torch. He looked excited. Although these coke were not very valuable, they couldn’t be separated from smelting gold.

“Wuyang, here are the smelted gold nuggets, which have all been moulded and filled with 30 boxes.”

Li Kunxiong lifted a box and grinned: “Eldest Brother, this box weighs 50 pounds. Be good and get rich.”

Li An touched a piece of gold, picked it up, looked towards the generals, and said softly: “Sure enough it is a piece of gold, enough weight, this box has 50 pieces of gold, that is 500 taels, 30 boxes is 1500 It’s quite gold, 15,000 2, it seems that it’s really a lot! “

The extremely excited mood caused Li An’s eyes to emit rays of light, and all the generals were deeply shocked by the huge wealth that fell in the sky.

“Wuyang, how to dispose of so much gold? Should I hand over to Imperial Court?”

Li An shook his head quickly: “When my Long Wujun was short of money, how could I give it to the Imperial Court? All of it stayed and served as a military pay and reward. With these golds, when the soldiers made merits, I ’m not afraid of not rewarding money. “

“Eldest Brother, what if Imperial Court pursues it?”

Li An smiled at the corner of his mouth and said disapprovingly: “I’m afraid of anything. I will personally write a discount to Your Majesty, stating the financial difficulties encountered by Pingnan Army. I believe Your Majesty will understand it. Moreover, we should not only keep this batch of gold, but also continue Develop the gold mine here and produce more gold. “

Obviously, Li An knows the importance of his current position, and the entire Great Tang Imperial Court is looking forward to calming down the turmoil. In this case, Li An continues to reach out to the Imperial Court for money, and the Imperial Court must not I don’t want to raise money. Today, I accidentally get a fortune and save the burden of Imperial Court. In this case, Li An proposed to leave the gold for vindication. How could Imperial Court refuse.

“General will continue to mine gold?”

“Such a large gold mine will definitely require a lot of absenteeism, and it is up to the Luzhou Provincial Governor to help recruit people.”

“How to calculate the wages of absenteeism, how much should we Pingnan Army share?”

The generals began to consider the details of mining.

Regarding the mining, Li An has not fully thought about it. After all, no matter how he lived in the past and present, he has never done such a thing. His management experience is almost zero. A certain percentage, these need to be considered carefully before the final decision.

“It’s safe to put so much gold here for the time being. It is necessary to strengthen the guard at the entrance. At least 50 Longwu troops should be stationed here. This batch of gold is very important to my Pingnan Army and must not be lost.”

“The general is assured that the humble office will arrange it.”

Li An continued to move forward and found some boxes full of weapons, which contained various weapons such as ring head knives and crossbows. However, due to the age, most of the weapons were rusted and decaying. It was simply not available, which made everyone feel a little regret.

“Eldest Brother, the dozens of boxes of arrows here are all rotten, and there are some arrows left. Hey, these arrows are all copper. No wonder they can be well preserved.”

Li An felt a copper arrow, nodded: “The dozens of boxes of rotten arrows should have enough 10000 copper arrows, all of which were transported to the yoke, used to make bow arrows.” ‘

Although I don’t quite understand why the arrows here are all copper cluster heads, these copper cluster heads seem to be usable, not white.

“General, there is a copper box here.”
