Chapter 133: Finding the Treasure

September 26.

Wednesday, 9 a. m.

The Bei family's triplet sisters didn't go to class.

First they tidied their own rooms, then they cleaned every corner of the apartment.

Then they sat on the sofa, waiting quietly.

The doorbell rang.

Bei HuaRong sprang up and immediately opened the door.

"Mommy!"

When she saw Bei Yiren, Bei HuaRong rushed into Bei Yiren's arms with a delighted expression.

Then Bei LuHua and Bei YuYao ran over as well.

"Alright, alright! Come inside!"

Facing her three daughters, a rare smile appeared on Bei Yiren's face.

After entering and closing the door.

The three sisters attentively served fruit, fetched drinks, and massaged Bei Yiren's back.

"Mommy, we almost thought you wouldn't come back."

"Yes, yes! We were so sad."

"I cried all day long."

"Mommy, please don't go out again; it's so dangerous!"

"Mommy, are you hurt?"

"Where's brother Lin Feng?"

"Brother Lin Feng is amazing; he rescued Mommy."

"Mommy, since brother Lin Feng saved your life, you won't oppose us befriending him anymore, right?"

Once the three sisters start talking, they chatter incessantly, like three yellow orioles chattering away.

Fortunately, Bei Yiren has already gotten used to it.

She sat calmly, the smile fading from her face as she gradually regained her queenly demeanor.

Seeing the queen's expression, the three sisters finally fell silent.

After mulling it over for a while, Bei Yiren said in her usual tone, "From now on... you may only befriend Lin Feng; no one else is allowed!"

"Yay!"

The three sisters jumped up happily.

Bei Yiren shook her head, unable to voice the grievances swelling inside her.

"Why hasn't brother Lin Feng returned?"

"Yeah! We can't even reach him by phone."

"Is brother Lin Feng injured?"

The triplets' questions about Lin Feng kept popping up one after another.

Bei Yiren frowned and said, "I have other business; I'm taking a plane back to Xiangjiang right away. You three be good, or you'll all go back to Xiangjiang with me."

She said that and left immediately.

She could no longer stay.

This visit also counted as completing the 'mission' Lin Feng gave her.

At this moment, her heart was filled with a sense of humiliation.

And also an inexplicable excitement…

Bei Yiren already knew she had a psychological issue.

But having her see a psychologist was impossible.

She could only try to heal herself.

After leaving the room, two female Biao Biao and a female secretary stood outside the door.

"How's it going over at Lin Feng's side?"

After entering the elevator, Bei Yiren frowned and asked.

The secretary replied, "We received word ten minutes ago; they have already taken off in a Helicopter."

Bei Yiren had also ridden those rickety Helicopters before.

They were still Soviet-made from the 1980s, so old they could belong in a museum.

Yet that kind of aircraft can still take to the sky.

Bei Yiren cursed in her mind that Lin Feng's plane crash, which would free her, yet she also felt a strong reluctance.

The previous mix of humiliation and excitement felt so strange.

The more she thought, the more she found herself looking forward to the future.

When the elevator reached the first floor, Bei Yiren didn't exit but pressed the button for the 8th floor.

She needed to use the restroom…

Lin Feng had previously sworn never to ride a rickety Helicopter again.

But she didn't expect that she still had to.

The Helicopter shook as if about to fall apart, making everyone extremely nervous.

Meanwhile, Shu Jingya, sitting beside her, showed no sign of nervousness on her face.

After a dozen minutes, the Helicopter finally hovered and came to a stop.

We have already arrived at the location Lin Feng gave.

This is a Valley.

Mountains winding on both sides.

Tall trees and dense vegetation grow all around.

More than sixty years have passed, and even if there are human traces here, they have long been covered by overgrown vegetation.

Lin Feng, with his Backpack on his back, slid down the rope and landed on the ground.

Then came Zheng Kai and three subordinates, followed by Shu Jingya and a dark‑skinned middle‑aged man.

Zheng Kai had previously guarded Bei Yiren; thanks to Lin Feng's rescue, he also rushed out.

Now he has been assigned to assist Lin Feng.

The middle‑aged man Shu Jingya brought is named Wei Wu; he is skilled, and his identity is obvious without guessing.

After the seven of them got off the Helicopter, the aircraft immediately flew away.

Lin Feng looked up at the departing Helicopter and said with a smile, "This thing is the Mi‑8 Helicopter, right?"

Zheng Kai nodded, "Even though it's been decades, its maintenance is simple, very durable, and it can carry cargo in one go."

Over 500 tons of gold—if we really find it, using such a Helicopter, calculated at one per day, we could transport more than 100 tons in a day, and that would get it done.

Lin Feng took out the map and gave the detailed coordinates.

Shu Jingya quickly marked the location on the map.

Within the area, the range is somewhat large; we'll try to finish within two or three days.

Lin Feng frowned.

Today is already the 26th.

He has to accompany Qi Yao home for the Mid‑Autumn Festival.

If he and Shu Jingya can't find it within two or three days, they can just give up.

After the discussion, excitement shone in the eyes of the seven.

Treasure hunting is inherently exciting.

The seven split into three groups.

Lin Feng, being strong, formed a solo group and searched eastward.

Zheng Kai and three subordinates formed a group and searched northward.

Shu Jingya and Wei Wu formed a group and went south.

They would all reconvene in the west.

After testing the walkie‑talkies, the seven set off with their Backpacks.

Half an hour later.

"Zzz… We've walked about a kilometer north, nothing found."

Zheng Kai's voice came through the walkie‑talkie.

Shu Jingya from the south said, "Everyone be careful, we just found an old landmine and almost stepped on it."

Lin Feng, holding the walkie‑talkie, said, "A landmine means the area was once fortified. Everyone be more careful."

Just as Lin Feng finished speaking, he smelled a metallic scent.

He immediately tucked the walkie‑talkie back to his waist, crouched, and carefully lifted the ground leaves.

A rust‑stained piece of iron appeared before his eyes.

It wasn't a landmine or anything.

He quickly took out his engineering shovel, dug away the topsoil, and uncovered a section of iron rail a little over a foot long.

Lin Feng picked up the walkie‑talkie, "I've found a piece of rail here; it doesn't look like a train track. Shu Jingya, come over and take a look."

"Zzz… Got it!"

Shu Jingya responded quickly.

Half an hour later, Shu Jingya appeared in front of Lin Feng.

By then Lin Feng had already unearthed a long stretch of iron track.

It wasn't as wide as a train track.

"This must be a temporary track built for transporting heavy objects; unfortunately it's only a section, otherwise we could follow it to the entrance," Shu Jingya said.

After Shu Jingya finished, Wei Wu said calmly, "It's not far; we can use explosives to make a sound. If there are caves underground or nearby, the echo will be heard."

Lin Feng's eyes lit up, "Old Wei, good idea! How could I not have thought of it?"

A simple smile appeared on Wei Wu's face, "Someone in my family used to do this before; of course, that was back in my grandfather's generation."

A moment later, Zheng Kai also arrived.

Wei Wu began setting up, placing six explosive points within a few hundred meters.

Then he lay on the ground, pressing his ear to the earth.

"Boom~"

One of Zheng Kai's subordinates triggered the first charge.

At this moment Lin Feng also closed his eyes, focusing his attention on hearing.

"Whirr~"

A cavern‑like echo rang in his ears.

It seemed to be underground about 500 meters ahead.

He turned his head again toward Wei Wu.

Wei Wu rose, shaking his head.

Then, the explosives at the second blast point were detonated.

Since Wei Wu was using the Listening to Sound to Discern Acupoints technique, Lin Feng had no need to display his hearing ability.

"A little sound—detonate the blast point!"

Wei Wu spoke into the walkie-talkie.

At this moment, Lin Feng also curiously pressed his ear to the ground.

"Boom~"

After a deafening explosion, a clear buzzing echo transmitted into Lin Feng's ears.

He not only heard the cave's echo, but also heard the sound made when some metal object inside the cave collided.

Wei Wu suddenly stood up, pointing at a spot 500 meters away and said, "Found it! It's right down there!"

Lin Feng marveled inwardly, there are still quite a few abilities in this world.

The place Wei Wu pointed to was exactly where he had just heard the cave's echo.
