Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 678
After returning to the hotel, Liang En quickly used the map to conduct further confirmation with the information in hand, and finally locked the target on a location in the west of the Yukon Territory that was more south as a whole. "It seems that another period of wild life will begin next."

Naturally, it is impossible for there to be only two people in the field operation, so Fan Meng and the White Knights team, who will arrive here as soon as possible, will gather together, and then take a small plane to the Yukon Territory.

Covering an area of ​​483 square kilometers (the size of Spain), the Yukon is located in eastern Alaska, between British Columbia and the Arctic Ocean.

However, although it has such a large area, the local permanent population is not large, only more than 4 people, and [-] of them live in Whitehorse.

The word "Yukon" comes from the Gwich'in word "Yuk-un-ah", meaning "big river", referring to the Yukon River that flows through the region, meanders through Alaska, and empties into the Bering Sea.

At the end of the 18th century, there was a prosperous trade scene in the Yukon land, and fur products were continuously sent to Asia, Europe and North America.

In the end Robert Campbell built Fort Selkirk for the Hudson's Bay Company, but the Hudson's Bay Company was eventually swept away by coastal Tlingit traders.

It's just that with the indiscriminate hunting and killing of these colonists, the local animal resources are rapidly depleted, and as a result, the place has returned to silence in just a few decades.

"Isn't anyone fixing the roads?" the big black man in the group called Tyson complained as his head hit the roof of the car again.

This Tyson is an American. He joined the French Foreign Legion after graduating from high school and worked as a sailor for several years. He just retired last year. For this 2m1 big man, this off-road vehicle is indeed a bit too small.

"Don't dream, there is no road at all in this place." Joan of Arc who was driving ahead also shouted loudly. "It would be nice to be able to find where the cars are going."

This road looks like it should be used by local loggers in the past, but it looks like it has been abandoned for 30 to [-] years.

If it weren't for the slow growth of plants in this cold zone, then this road may have completely disappeared into a sea of ​​green, instead of being barely passable for vehicles as it is now.

This is not a road that can be called a road.On both sides are white spruces with a diameter of [-] to [-] centimeters, and occasionally you can still see snow in many places.

The gaps left between these tall fir trees are even large enough for a heavy truck, but there are some bushes and other plants on the ground that form obstacles.

In other words, if the end of this road really uses the target that everyone wanted to find before, then it means that it is really necessary to carry out large-scale search and excavation and simply strengthen the original road surface.

According to everyone's previous plan, they will spend two days on the road and then start searching for the target location, but judging from the current road, they may be able to compress the time to about one and a half days.

However, after more than an hour, Liang and the others realized that their previous imagination was too optimistic: because they found that part of the only road along the river was buried more than ten meters due to landslides.

"This is not man-made, but a landslide caused by cracks in the rocks that let water in and the water freezes and expands the cracks at night." After getting out of the car and checking for a while, Fan Meng walked to the side of the car and Liang En said.

"That's bad luck—is there any other way around it?"

"No, because this is the only place where cars can pass." Fan Meng said helplessly, "Then we have to park the car here first and walk to the target."

"This is really unlucky." After hearing the final conclusion, Liang En shrugged helplessly, then opened the car door to get the equipment in the trunk.

For Liang En and the others, this was expected. After all, this is a vast wilderness far away from human activities. The fact that the car can drive so far has actually far exceeded their expectations.

"Is it okay to leave the car here?" Just as everyone was packing their luggage and preparing to set off, Joan asked the three off-road vehicles parked on the high ground not far away.

"No problem, no one will come to this place at all, so don't worry about being stolen." Louis put his backpack on his back and said, "And we will not spend more than a week in the wild. Week."

Fortunately, as long as the next road after passing through this landslide area can still go along this road that belongs to the loggers, so the whole is much easier than the real field.

After walking for a certain distance, the trees on the side of the road began to grow thicker, and at the same time, the road surface not only narrowed but also became more potholed.

Looking up at the three ravens hovering above his head, Liang En turned the 56 and a half that was carried behind his back to his chest, and then carefully walked forward along the narrower and narrower road.

These three ravens were brought here by Fan Meng and the others, because it was obviously safer for Liang En to let these ravens help scout the surroundings.

As for the other professionals, they were not idle either. When Liang En and the others were armed, the others also prepared their weapons and were always alert to the surrounding situation.

This season can be regarded as a very dangerous season, because the hibernating bears are waking up from hibernation, and at the same time the wolves are also swimming in the forest, even because of the lack of food, they are even crazier than usual.

"The raven told me that there are abnormal places around me." Liang En whispered after everyone got ready. "Yes, there are some footsteps approaching."

Joan clenched the rifle in her hand, and at this time her enhanced hearing had already heard the sound of something approaching in the distance.

"What—" After listening to what Liang En and Joan of Arc said, Louis, who had just subconsciously prepared for battle before, asked a little puzzled, but at this moment a black shadow passed by the forest in the distance.

To be honest, if it weren’t for the shady side of the distant hillside and some snow accumulation forming a white background, everyone might not notice the small black spot in the distance.

"It should be a wild boar." Hans, who had previously served as an observer, raised the binoculars in his hand and glanced into the distance before saying. "This thing is more trouble than wolves and bears."

"Then what should we do?" Liang En asked. "Shoot two shots to scare these guys away." Hans thought for a while and said. "We are not conducting a covert operation now, we can definitely drive these guys away with some noise."

After two gunshots, Liang En found through the raven that the wild boars that were trying to approach were running towards the jungle. At the same time, Hans also observed that the wild boars started to move away from the road.

"Okay, those wild boars have left." Hans put down the binoculars in his hand and said.For him, if those wild boars approached, it would definitely be a dangerous thing.

Because for those wild boars, even if Liang En and the others hit a few shots with the military rifle they used, as long as they didn't hit the vital parts, they wouldn't be able to stop their attacks, and instead would cause them to attack everything around them crazily.
