Secret passage turning on the androids both went inside. After a meter, three floors passed into the steps cut down in the rock. Going up was fraught. Since it is not known when these beams were installed, by whom, what is the condition of the rock ... would it not fall under them? After all, Dara weighed in his 22 years, about 98 kg, while Fang only 65 kg. It was a risky step on their part. But they were attracted by adventure, a riddle, what is there on the other end? Maybe gold? !!!
The stairs rose higher ... there were apparently air ducts in the ceiling and there were small slots in the steps, did water run down them ... into the bowl? or was there an underground karstaya cave under the mountain? or an underground river, or maybe a prismatic lake? Such thoughts flashed through Dar.
Dara began to get tired, he was overweight, and his habits of such lifts began to hurt his knees and his breathing apparatus to fail. But he overcame his weakness and moved on. For Fang it was easier, he was the grandson of a peasant.
After 5 minutes, they were able to climb the observation deck hidden in the mountain. It was a room measuring 35-40 square meters. meters. Small windows were cut from three sides. Apparently from here the owners of the cave watched the steppe and mountains. They could see the approach of caravans and guards alike. To attack or run away on time. Dissolved in the steppe.
There was a police post, but apparently its inhabitants did not know anything about this secret .. A bit comical, of course. But such is the story.
Looking around, Dara saw stone chairs, a table. The remains of decayed weapons, iron swords, on the floor lay a pile of iron tips from arrows and spears, two halberds ... knobs for shields.
Dara and Fang looked at each other! This is a worthwhile find! Both began to work with broom detectors. Having tuned in immediately to non-ferrous metal, since everything was fonil from iron at once!
On the floor under one of the stone chairs, Dara found a good signal 88! Pushing back his chair, he began to try to dig ... but the floor was stone. Fang dropped his metal detector, took out a scanner and looked at the floor, again found a small mechanism. He was popping around made of silver and gilding. Having knocked on a stone, in a place where there was a mechanism on the scanner, one of the tower walls opened. There was a niche; it was empty. Nothing! It happens! Not always, everything turns out ... Dara began to check the walls with a metal detector ... But Fang said he would rather check with a scanner. Surprisingly, each of the walls had its own cache, a niche with stone shelves.
Of the five niches, only two had any finds. A jug and a pair of pottery shards. Inside the jug was empty. And in the second niche they found ... a modern box of the 18th or 19th century with paper bills and old money like sons. Paper dents might be worth it, but they needed a specialist.
Apparently this cache was discovered by smugglers or counterfeiters or swindlers who stole all the treasures that had been left earlier and began to store their own in them.
- Well, do not always find ?! suddenly behind them came the voice of Baraz.
Fang and Dara involuntarily flinched. Fang had already forgotten that a body camera was attached to Dara, and an action camera was attached to his head. These were the modern requirements in the official search for treasure hunters. Not always adhered to this. But here, Dara was forced to follow the standard procedure, as the colonel came and he could not begin to trick. as white diggers often did.
Baraz grinned, - you smell again, did Dara bring out something interesting? But apparently there is not what I'm looking for and what you're looking for? It's a pity!
Gold is not lying under the bushes, Dara! No need to be so greedy! Baraz grinned again. He could not understand how such a generous, ascetic, obsessed with honesty and justice, Firuza Sage, had such a money-hungry grandson! Who was even ready to swear with his grandfather? !!!
Dara simply lived in constant poverty, and therefore simply wanted to have some money in his account, so as not to be afraid of constant price increases, it's good to have good doctors and live in society and not be like a wild bear!
Dara, just smiled. "Well, we'll go, there's nothing to catch, you'll call Baraz these nerds from the department for the protection of cultural monuments or your specialists to examine this object more thoroughly."
And he and Fang quickly retreated. Awkwardly clinging to a corner, Dara's body camera broke.
"Oh, it seems she's broken!" Dara said exaggeratedly loudly.
Baraz cast a scornful look at him! He thought, here is a bug !!! So arrogant !!! He clearly wants to raise money now, did this bastard notice something? Baraz could only smile.
Fang smiled too.
Both sly men trotted down.
Dara began ringing all the rocks of the cave at the very beginning at the entrance and again found a secret passage. It was a guard ... probably nobody has been there since the time when the robbers left her.
Iron tips of spears lay on the floor, the remains of iron swords on the walls. Having knocked a shovel near the stone chairs, without even checking them with a scanner or metal detector Dara was able to open four beggars.
In which stood five jugs on stone shelves. And out ...
