”Second Gouzi, Second Gouzi …”
Elder Chen shouted.
But the shadow did not move, as if it had not heard their shouts.
Elder Chen quickly rushed over with Dazhang and Xu Linzi with a puzzled look on his face.
Only when they arrived did Elder Chen realize that there was a huge change in the cave in front of them.
The most remarkable thing was that the width of the cave had greatly increased compared to before.
If the width of the crater they walked through could only allow two people to walk in parallel, then the width of the crater in front of them was enough for an ox-cart to pass through.
In addition, there were a few bronze lamps about the size of a thumb on both sides of the cave. Old Zhao looked around and found that there were at least dozens of lamps on both sides of the cave.
The most bizarre thing was that these lamps contained some unknown snow-white powder. These snow-white powder had a very strong brightness, causing the originally pitch-black cave to brighten up.
These stone walls were engraved with many vivid and lifelike pictures. Ergou, whom they had been looking for, was now standing in the middle of the cave, sizing up the pictures on the stone wall. From time to time, he would let out a silly chuckle.
”Second Gouzi, Second Gouzi, what happened to you?”
The hunter's loud shout woke Ergou from his stupor.
”Old Uncle Zhao, Uncle Zhang, Uncle Ma Zizi, and Aunt Cui Hua, you're all here?” Ergouzi chuckled, pointing at the lifelike pictures on the stone wall with an especially excited expression.
”Aunt, we might be able to make a fortune this time!”
”Er Gouzi, don't look at the villagers waiting for you. Hurry up and go back.”
Although the pictures on the stone wall were vivid and lifelike, he was not the least bit interested in seeing them. The most important thing was that he could not help but grow a little disgusted with these pictures.
”What for? Uncle, Aunt, we might be rich this time! ” As Ergou spoke, his gaze once again fell upon the pictures on the stone wall.
”Make a fortune?” Ergouzi, did you break your brain? These paintings are indeed very beautiful, what does this have to do with getting rich? ” Cui Hua curled her lips. She was certain that Ergou must have knocked his brains out when he fell down. Otherwise, how could he say such endless nonsense?
”Aunt, do you not believe me?” Second Gou Zi patted his chest. ”When I followed my father out of the mountain to sell my prey, I saw foreigners asking about these things in the mural at a high price. I was curious at the time, so I went up and asked a few questions …”
”And then?” Big Zhang couldn't help but ask.
”That person told me that the things drawn in these frescoes are all rare treasures. They have come here to inquire about those things …”
Speaking to this, Ergou-zi rubbed his hands excitedly, ”Because the things they wanted all looked very strange, so I remember them very clearly … ”It's exactly the same as the painting on this mural. As long as we find these things, I believe that they will sell them for a good price. At that time, we won't need to live our lives without food or clothing.”
”Are you for real?” Big Zhang was in disbelief.
”When did I, Ergou-zi, lie?” Ergou looked at the picture on the stone wall and stretched out five fingers. ”At that time, they told me that if I could find what they wanted, they would give me this number …”
”Fifty?” Cui Hua's eyes lit up.
