Chapter 1417 Down the Mountain (2/2)

Just then, after they started on the road down the hill, they met a pickup truck passing by. Li Du hailed the truck, paid and took the journey down.

The owner of the van was scared. Li Du and the others looked like bandits, and he was afraid that he would be killed when he drove through a less populated place.

After leaving the mountains, it would be simple for them to get back. Big Ivan flew the helicopter and waited for them in Pittsburgh. It was a private airport, and they did not need to check in. The Markelov brothers got onboard successfully.

The helicopter flew off, heading for California.

Li Du turned on his cell phone, but it lost its signal when he went up the hill, so he turned it off.

When the signal was restored, the phone was flooded with more than 20 missed calls, 15 new emails, and 30 text messages.

Two of the calls were from Steve Tussenberg. Li Du called him back because he had something he wanted to ask from Steve.

Steve had contacted Sophie earlier and now said, ”What were you doing up there? Sophie said you're looking for treasure, a native treasure?”

Li Du said, ”Yes, the legendary gold treasure.”

”What did you get?” Steve asked.

Li Du laughed and said, ”Far more than expected, man!”

This caught Steve's interest and he asked Li Du what he had gained.

The noise in the helicopter was very loud, so Li Du could not speak too long. Instead, he sent Steve a message briefly recapping his trip to the mountains.

An Andean condor, a gold deposit, two men, a partnership agreement, and a mysterious cave with a long history. This time his harvest was big.

After the message was sent, Steve called back, yelling at the top of his lungs and not caring that his voice was loud. ”Ha, you lucky bastard…”

He wasn't interested in money, or pets, or people. He was interested in cave art.

Li Du sent him the coordinates, knowing that if he didn't, Steve would immediately tell him to turn around and head back to Pittsburgh and take him up the hill to see the cave.

Steve thanked him, and Li Du said, ”It's not for nothing. Help me deal with the legal status of two men. My two new guys got into trouble in Ukraine, and this might be a little problematic.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

”Ukraine? What trouble could Ukraine have? As long as it's not about nuclear weapons, everything in that country is minor,” said Steve easily.

After several stops for refueling, the helicopter completed a long journey across the United States, from the northeast to the southwest.

When they got off the helicopter, the hot, humid atmosphere of California dashed straight at them, and the sun shone so brightly that they felt they were in quite a different world from the Appalachians.

There were cars, people around, traffic lights and a prosperous city. ”This is America, now!”

It was the first time the Markelov brothers had experienced real American life. Ever since they had been smuggled into the United States, they hid either in the desert or in the mountains.
