章節 33: Know the place of hidden treasure.
I didn't realize when it was morning when I was talking with Ripvan.
"Some of us have to get out," said Mr. Philip.
Mr. Haldar said, "Why do you have to go out?"
Because we have no food. We must all be hungry. We cannot move without eating food.
Rightly said. But now it's daylight. If someone takes a look when you go out.
It is not possible to bring food at night without day.
Ripvan said, "If the red men had not guarded my house, I could have brought some food from my house. But now that is no longer possible."
Mr. Philip said, "Now the question is who will go for the food? To go out is to accept death."
I said, "But Mr. Philip, if we don't eat we'll die. We must eat. And for that we must go out and fight to the death."
Ripvan said, "I will go out. You are new. You know nothing of the outdoors. You do not know where there is food and where there is danger. I must go with one other."
I said, "I will go with you."
As soon as we got out the colonel said to Ripvan, "Ripvan you take my gun with you. It will be useful in case of danger. If any red man sees you, shoot him. Ripvan you know how to shoot a gun?"
Yes, I know how to shoot a gun. We have to do different strategies to save the sun city from foreign enemies. That's when I learned to drive.
Very good then. Well you two be careful.
I and Ripvan went out in search of food.
We move forward with a silent step in surrender.
We are moving forward with a good look around.
So far we were going near the sun city. But there was no food.
Suddenly my heartbeat stopped and my legs went numb.
I called out to Ripvan quietly, "Red men in front of Ripvan. Ripvan was startled to see them."
Red people were only 3 in number.
I said to Ripvan, "We need to hide in the bushes ahead before they see us."
The red men started coming towards us.
I said, "If they come near us, two of us will shoot at them without delay."
ok I will do that. At any rate we have to escape from them.
The red men turned back after coming some distance.
We gasped and survived.
That means they didn't see us.
When the red men had gone far we left the bush and took another route.
I am very careful that way too.
After going a long way, I did not get any food.
I was disappointed.
After going a little way, I saw a place like a small pond.
Ripvan said, "There are plenty of fish in such a place in the forest. You stand here, foreigner, and keep watch. I go down and fetch the fish."
The water in the pond was very low. So there was no problem in catching fish.
Ripvan quickly got out of the pond with some fish in his hand.
A little distance from there I saw some fruits on a tree.
I went to the tree and picked the fruit.
I said, "We've got the food. But there's a problem."
What's the problem?
These fish cannot be eaten without cooking.
And if you want to cook, you have to light a fire.
Is it right for us to light a fire?
What to do will have to think later. Go to the cave first.
We left for the cave.
Looking around like a deer and stepping forward with surrender.
No danger was observed on the way.
We reached the cave safely.
Everyone was happy to see us arrive unharmed.
I told them about the terrible encounter the red people were going to have with us.
"Then you were going to be in great danger," said Mr. Philip.
I said, "Stop that. Now tell me how to cook these fish?"
Ok, First clean the fish.
Discard all the fish bones.
We have to light the fire inside the cave.
But with what to light the fire?
Why? Can't you see the rock ahead?
He took two stones in his hands and said, "The friction of these two stones will produce fire."
So what!
Yes, Don't you know?
The colonel said, "If we light a fire, the smoke will go far. This will let the red men know where we are hiding."
You are right. How about doing a job?
what work
All cracks in the cave must be closed. So that no smoke can come out.
The colonel said, "Wow! Jayant you spoke well."
We all started working to close the cracks in the cave.
All cracks were closed with great difficulty.
I threw stones on the stone and lit the fire and started cooking the fish.
The fish was hung in the heat of the fire for about 20 minutes.
When it was cooked, we had finished our hungry.
The colonel said, "The food has been eaten. Now what is the next step?"
We have to get out of this cave and find the treasure.
Ripvan, you know where the treasure is hidden?
Ripvan said, "Yes, I knew. But I still can't tell if there is any treasure in that place."
Why?
Because everyone knows that a group of foreigners have entered Sun City. There is fear of losing treasure due to them.
And besides, the Incas now know about your entry into the Sun City. The treasure may have been hidden in a safe place on the orders of the Incas.
First you tell where the treasure was previously hidden.
Earlier the treasure was hidden in a secret room in the temple.
That room is located under the temple.
Very dangerous place. Surrounded by magic there.
I did not enter that room. But I heard there are two poisonous snakes guarding the treasure. And besides there are various traps of danger.
The treasure is kept in a revolving circle that is inaccessible to the common man. And deep beneath that chakra lies the death trap. Once his foot slips, his death is certain.
What are you saying
Yes, I am right.
So how did your red people get there?
The Incas have special troops who know how to get there.
They enter there by stopping the spinning wheel with a spell.
"Ripvan you didn't want to go in there," said Mr. Philip.
No.
Why?
Because common people like us are not allowed to enter there.
"Isn't there a red man guarding that treasure?" said the colonel.
To this day no guard was needed to guard that treasure.
Whoever enters it will end up in its illusion.
There is no way to know which is real and which is fake.
"Has nobody tried to get in there before?" said Mr. Philip.
Yes.
About 22 years ago, two men tried to enter there. But they could not succeed. They fell into the pit and died.
Wasn't there a snake or something on guard at that time?
No. We thought no one would dare enter here. But then when it was realised that the enemy had entered here, magical trap was administered with the help of the main priest. And snakes are also kept.
But how did you understand that someone entered there?
A strong smell was coming from the pit where it had fallen. The smell was so strong that it became very difficult to rest in the temple.
After much searching we found two dead bodies in that hole.
