Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 428 Ammunition Depot

If there were only two people digging, they could naturally dig first and then report to the local responsible department, but now that the situation forces them to mobilize more people, they must obtain official permission before they can dig.

After all, this place is Spain, which is densely populated, not Russia, Canada or the United States, which is sparsely populated. Therefore, it is more appropriate to go directly to the application process than to stop half of the digging.

Fortunately, the subsequent application process went very smoothly. Because of his status as a historian, he easily obtained permission from the Spanish government to excavate on this official land.

Even because of Spain, a country with a large amount of traditional cultural relics, but the overall budget is not much, the local cultural relics management department only sent a young man not more than two years older than Liang En to be the supervisor.

In other words, Liang En himself was responsible for both digging and cleaning things from inside. If he had any bad intentions, the monitoring would be the same as no monitoring.

In fact, there are quite a lot of such bad things transferred out by the Spanish cultural relics department.For example, when the ancient castle of Madrera was restored a few years ago, the restoration project was directly reinforced with cement on the wall, giving people a feeling of dog tail.

In addition, such strange things as turning the portrait of Jesus into a monkey face, or painting precious wood carvings in the style of an amusement park were also done by Spain, which also shows the confusion in Spain's management of cultural relics.

But this high degree of freedom is a good thing for Liang En. With the help of the local priest, they quickly found enough labor from around, and at the same time, they also waited for Fan Meng who came here temporarily.

After all, there is a high possibility of various explosives and weapons in this place, so a professional is needed to solve those possible problems.

To tell the truth, Liang En also applied for the intervention of the official EOD personnel when he reported the ruins, but the answer he got was that unless the explosives were confirmed, the official personnel would not be dispatched, but he could hire the relevant personnel himself. .

Because the labor force came from the surrounding area, Liang En also asked them about the ruins during the excavation process, but unfortunately, he didn't get much information.

All they know is that this village and another village had a few battles during the civil war, and then they were occupied by the Nationalist Army and all the villagers were driven out, and the villagers were not allowed to return until two years after the war ended.

Before that, they found a series of military buildings such as the command post and bunkers left by those people in the village, but basically all the things inside were transported away, leaving only some empty rooms.

In this case, the returning villagers confirmed that the army would not come back, and then rebuilt or demolished the somewhat obstructive fortifications and used the materials for other purposes.

For example, this is the case with the buildings on the edge of the field. They removed the top cover of the original blockhouse and used the wood to build other things, then filled the remaining part and built the current building on top.

"It's a little strange. There has never been a single piece of information about these things in the information we checked before." After listening to the villagers, Joan said curiously.

"It's normal. Don't forget that we saw the two attackers through special means, and then followed them here." Liang En replied in a low voice after seeing that there was no one around.

"For other people, it is very normal that there are many traces left by the war in this place that was once the front line of the war, so naturally it will not be recorded in those search files."

"Especially, the granddaughter of the previous Mr. Garcia is looking for some professional detectives, so the focus is often on people, records and clues at the scene, and will not pay attention to this kind of military relics."

Because Liang En paid a relatively generous salary and had a local priest's platform, the number of people hired was very large, and the excavation work was carried out very quickly.

After just over an hour of excavation, they dug away the surface shrubs, grasses and the soil under these plants, and found some sticks, planks and branches placed against the mountain from the bottom.

Although most of these things have decayed over a long period of time, based on the only remaining content at the scene, it can be easily seen that these sundries were specially placed here to hide something underneath.

After seeing the traces, everyone became excited and quickly accelerated their excavation progress, because the two had previously promised to give each of them an extra bonus of 20 euros as long as they dug up what they wanted.

The power of money is really great. As more and more soil and gravel were excavated, a 3m×3m square iron gate finally appeared in front of everyone.

After using some kind of fiber optic endoscope to follow the large rusted hole in the iron door to confirm that there were no traps inside, Liang En smashed the rusty spot with a large hammer under the watchful eyes of a group of villagers and that staff member. big lock.

In an instant, the shutters of the surrounding cameras rang, and almost all the villagers took out their mobile phones to start filming this scene. With the sound of the shutters, the door with the remaining black paint slowly opened.

"Give way back, be careful of the poisonous and harmful gas inside." With the help of the Murakami police who rushed over, they quickly pulled up a cordon and began to ventilate the cave. As the warehouse door opened, a gust of air mixed with rust The musty smell also washed out of the warehouse.

Because of this smell, the onlookers took a few steps back voluntarily. Only Liang En and the others walked to the door wearing gas masks, and saw the situation in the cave through the sunlight.

The space inside this tunnel is not too big, and even standing at the entrance of the cave, you can see the situation inside the cave at a glance, so everyone onlookers soon discovered that this should be an ammunition warehouse.

It's just that it's different from a normal ammunition warehouse. The middle of this ammunition warehouse is empty, and an old black Buick is parked in the empty space.

"This should be the car that Mr. Garcia and his bodyguards drove." Looking at the old Buick in the 40s, Liang En immediately recognized the car he had seen before.

It's just that it's different from the vehicle seen through the card. The tires of this car are already flat and covered with a layer of dust. If you didn't prepare in advance, you wouldn't be able to recognize that this car is the car from back then. .

"The things here don't look right." Fan Mengwen's voice came from behind the gas mask. "Why is there a civilian vehicle in the warehouse?"

"Because these two things didn't enter the warehouse at the same time." Liang En said as he took the lead into the warehouse, and then came to the side of the car and wiped off the dust on the car glass with his hands.

Through the not-so-transparent car glass, Liang En saw that both the front and rear seats of the car were empty, but when they opened the trunk, a strong stench emanated from a pile of The rotten blanket came out.

"I think we've found Mr. Garcia, although the situation is not good—" Joan stepped forward to use a wooden stick to pick up the blanket, and some skeletonized human bodies emerged from the blanket.
