“Don’t you guys know it?” Hearing Liu Qingshi’s suspicious words and seeing the suspicious look of everyone around him, Fang Qiu said speechlessly, “Don’t you know such simple historical knowledge?”
Everyone was stunned.
It seemed they were despised.
Fang Qiu explained, “Yong Le is the reign title of Emperor Zhu Di. Why do you think these two words appear here?”
“Why?” Zheng Weilian asked.
“Yes, why?” Zhang Junhe looked confused.
“Can you just say what you have to say all at once? Don’t keep asking questions all the time.” Liu Qingshi complained.
“All right.” Fang Qiu shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said, “I just want to mention it to remind you. Since you can’t think of it, then I’ll just say it straight. Zheng He’s Voyages to the West, have you heard of it?”
Everyone suddenly realized it.
“D*mn, why didn’t I think of it?” Suddenly, Liu Qingshi slapped his forehead and said, “I feel sorry for my history teacher.”
“Yong Le and Zheng He, it makes sense.” Gu Jianguo said, “However, I remember that Zheng He’s voyages to the West were supposed to do maritime transactions. Although it said that he brought a lot of gold and silver treasures, the money must have been spent on buying Western goods. At that time there seemed to some sort of bartering. Do you think there are any out-of-print antiques at home and abroad hidden here?
“D*mn.” Zhang Junhe said in surprise, “This means that Zheng He stayed here back then? If this is the case, it would be awesome!”
Everyone was talking about it. Some members of the program team even took out their mobile phones and started searching the Internet for news about Zheng He’s Voyages to the West. When everyone was talking about it on the pile of rocks, Fang Qiu said, “Although I think there are treasures here, they might not be what you’ve expected. But the possibility of finding the remains of Zheng He’s stay in the past is not small.”
With that, Fang Qiu stretched his hand towards the top of the pile of stones, and pointed at the narrow path, beckoning everyone to go deeper.
But after hearing Fang Qiu’s words, everyone hesitated.
Now, they should have packed up and prepared to go back to China by boat and plane, but this so-called treasure was tempting. There was a high probability that there would be no gold and silver treasures, and there should not be any antiques, but finding the remains left by Zheng He in his day was also a major event.
This kind of opportunity to verify history was not something one could run into casually, and maybe it only happened once in a lifetime. Everyone hesitated whether they were going or not.
The deputy director immediately contacted Liu Guobin.
“Hello?” The walkie-talkie was turned on.
“Is the recording over?” Director Liu Guobin’s voice came from the walkie-talkie.
“Mr. Liu, something is going on!” The deputy director responded, “Fang Qiu found two ancient words in the cave where we’ve been temporarily staying. He said it seemed to be related to Zheng He’s Voyages to the West. He also said that there might be treasures in this cave. Even if we won’t find the treasures, there is a high probability that we will find the ruins left by Zheng He’s Voyages to the West when he passed here. But we don’t know anything about the depths of this cave now. We don’t know if there is any danger in it. What do you think we should do?”
“What???” Director Liu Guobin was taken aback when he heard the report from the deputy director.
He was also stunned. Damn, he was so lucky. If they could find the ruins of Zheng He, this show would be listed on the national priority list and it would probably become a hit in the future.
Anyway, this episode must be aired. Even if they couldn’t find it, it was good to make a gesture.
Thinking of it, Director Liu Guobin immediately said, “Zheng He’s Voyages to the West is a major event in our country’s history. If we can find the relics left by Zheng He, it will be very valuable to our country’s historical research. As a member of the Chinese nation, we need to make contributions to the country’s historical records as much we can. Now that we have found clues, we should go to investigate them. But you must pay attention to safety. If you encounter any safety problems, you must leave as soon as possible. Safety is the top priority in everything!”
“Yes.” The deputy director nodded immediately.
This phone call was recorded by the PD. He knew it was a good opportunity for the director to shine, and what the director said had lived up to his expectations.
After he finished the conversation with the director, the deputy director stood up directly, faced the six MCs and two guests, and said, “I have calculated it carefully. You arrived on this island in the afternoon on the first day, and it is early in the morning now, which means this recording time is not over, and it’s not time to leave yet. Although the boat and air tickets have been booked, you still have to wait a few hours to get to the airport. So the suggestion from our program team is to explore it to contribute our own strength to the record of our history and culture. Maybe there is something wonderful in it!”
Everyone smiled when they heard it.
But they were secretly cursing the deputy director.
“What the hell? Could there be something wonderful? It’s pitch dark. What if something goes wrong?”
“They are insane! Do they think this is a treasure hunt show?”
“They’re so shameless. How can they torture us like this?”
It was not that they didn’t want to explore it, but that they just didn’t like the sudden change of attitude of the program team, as if they were forcing them. If the program team had asked them to decide whether to leave or not, they would have gone without any complaints.
However, since the director team said so, they had to continue to record the show!
So they got together to discuss it.
After a few minutes’ discussion, they decided to go in and check it out.
After the final decision was made, the program team became so generous that they immediately prepared some outdoor equipment and necessary items such as flashlights and water for everyone.
After all, they were also afraid of accidents.
Everything was ready. Fang Qiu took the lead and walked onto the narrow path first, and everyone lined up in a row behind him.
The narrow path was only four or five meters long.
After crossing this path, a very wide, large and deep cave was ushered in. The inside of the cave was quiet and dark.
The moment he entered this cave, Fang Qiu was startled.
He felt that there were many times more poisonous animals such as snakes, insects, bats, etc. in this cave than outside. If others saw them, they would certainly scream.
Besides, everyone was now walking in the narrow path behind them. If there was any movement, these bats would rush outside, and he was afraid that it would cause some serious accident.
Thinking of it, Fang Qiu did not dare to hesitate at all. He immediately released his aura to shake all the snakes and insects in this dark cave into hiding. They did not dare to move at all, and even the bats hanging upside down on the cave did not dare to move.
Under such a circumstance, Fang Qiu illuminated the road ahead with the flashlight and led everyone on.
After walking more than ten meters, he used his internal Qi to isolate the sound and drove all the bats out of the cave.
They went on for a while. There suddenly came a voice from behind.
“It’s strange. Why doesn’t it feel right? Why is there no living thing? It stands to reason that mosquitoes should like this place very much, right?” Someone whispered.
When Fang Qiu heard it, he can’t help but think to himself, it’s me, okay? If I left, the snakes and insects here can make you scream!
Everyone was surprised.
When everyone was surprised, “Ah!!!” a scream came suddenly.
It was Song Yaqi.
She was walking beside Fang Qiu. After crossing the narrow path, everyone was no longer walking in a row, but side by side.
She slipped, but Fang Qiu quickly turned around and held her back.
“Thank you.” Song Yaqi thanked him.
“It’s okay, be careful.” Fang Qiu smiled slightly and said to everyone, “Everyone, be careful. No one comes here all year-round, and the road is not easy to walk on. We’d better support each other on the way.”
Everyone nodded one after another, and they were alert. It seemed that everyone had subconsciously regarded Fang Qiu as the leader of the team in this treasure hunt.
“Stop!” While walking, Fang Qiu suddenly called out to stop.
Everyone stopped immediately.
“There is a mark on the wall here.” Fang Qiu used his mobile phone to illuminate it and saw some strange marking patterns on the wall.
“There are also some here.”Liu Qingshi walked forward and found one place.
After taking note of them carefully, they kept going. But the deeper they went, the more signs they found, and even some humanoid patterns.
No one else could understand these pattern marks.
Fang Qiu was shocked when he looked at them one by one.
These patterns were some martial arts moves!
“Could it be that some senior master stayed here in ancient times?” Fang Qiu became more curious about the depths of this cave.
In addition to the marks left by Zheng He’s Voyages to the West, why there are patterns left by the martial arts masters? He was confused.
They kept moving forward and went deeper and deeper.
Under the leadership of Fang Qiu, they had gone a long way.
Suddenly a ray of light appeared in the front.
“There is light ahead!” Ying’er, who had always been particularly worried and scared, pointed and nodded, shouting in surprise.
“Is it the end?” Fang Qiu looked forward and let out a sigh of relief.
He thought to himself, could the doubts left along the way be answered at the end of this cave?
Others were also excited.
Everyone had been depressed in the dark cave. They immediately relaxed a lot when they saw the light.
“Let’s go up and take a look.” Liu Qingshi beckoned and shouted.
Then they continued to observe the surrounding rock walls, looking for clues, while they moved forward quickly.
Soon they came to the end of the cave.
They looked up and saw that at the end of the cave, there was a winding crack and the light was shining from it. With the light, they could see the surrounding environment and situation.
