Chen Rui's study.

The layout is antique, and the bookshelves, desks, chairs, pen holders and pen holders on the desk are all made of very precious mahogany.

There is a diary on the desk. The paper is a little yellow and worn, and it looks like it has a long history.

It was a diary in Spanish from a small chest in the pirate treasure, kept with the diary, and a Spanish noble coat of arms.

Chen Rui didn't know Spanish, so he could only translate the diary with the help of online translation software.

It took a day to finally translate the diary into Chinese characters.

Open the diary translation.

The owner of the diary was a Spanish explorer named Fred Saldoga in the mid-17th century.

He wrote this in his diary.

"On February 4, 1647, Gregorian calendar, in order to find a new source of gold in the South American continent, I led an expedition of 25 people to land in Ecuador on the Pacific coast."

......

"On April 7, 1647, Gregorian calendar, after more than two months of climbing, we climbed over the majestic Andes Mountains and reached the vicinity of the Napo River. Due to disease and the attack of poisonous snakes, the team lost three people."

"On April 12, 1647, we set up camp on the banks of the Napo River, and after a week's rest, the procession resumed its journey down the banks of the Napo River."

"On April 21, 1647 in the Gregorian calendar, the situation was very bad. Most of the areas on both sides of the Napo River belonged to swamps. Behind the swamps was a vast tropical rain forest full of miasma and danger. "We were starving, many people got yellow fever, people started dying in large numbers, ... and the ranks were very low-key."

"On May 1, 1647 Gregorian, we sailed down the Napo in a schooner built locally."

......

Chen Rui turned to the next page and continued to read.

"November 1, 1647, Gregorian calendar, there were only 12 people left in our party, we were lost in the Amazon rainforest, we were looking for the direction to the river, I firmly believe that the river will lead us to the sea, and we will be saved, ..., an unbearable and irresistible calamity—the mosquitoes and the damp conditions of the rainforest, which constantly torment us."

"November 5th, 1647, Gregorian, we were lost in a valley, . It is decorated, it is brilliant and brilliant, and the gold and silver treasures are piled up like mountains. This is a wealth that is so huge that it is difficult to describe in any language.

Due to so much treasure, we only had 12 people left in our team, and we only brought a small part of the treasure.

Nonetheless, this is a very great asset,...I marked the location of this place in my diary so that I can find it again in the future. "

"November 7, 1647, Gregorian calendar,

We left Treasure Valley with treasures of gold and silver. "

"On November 11, 1647, Gregorian calendar, we rediscovered the Maranon River, and drifting down the Maranon River, at the mouth of the Maranon River, a larger river unfolded before our eyes.

I knew it was the Amazon, and I ordered full speed down the river, day by day, week by week, and at last we saw the ocean, and it was January 1648 in the Gregorian calendar. On the 24th, I will never forget this day of hope.

Starting from Ecuador in the Pacific Ocean to seeing the Atlantic Ocean, it took me more than a year to travel through the Amazon rainforest. "

"January 28, 1648 Gregorian, we built a larger sailing ship and sailed out to the ocean full of gold and silver treasures. . . . dammit, we met pirates!!!  … ..."

The diary is gone here. Chen Rui already knows the ending of Fred Saldoga.

Fred Saldoga's diary fell into the hands of an English pirate who didn't know Spanish and missed a huge treasure.

Fred Saldoga's diary and his noble coat of arms were placed in a small chest, and were buried with the pirate's treasure on Tortuga Island.

Now, the diary is in Chen Rui's hands.

The last page of the diary draws a map.

On the map, a winding Maranon River is drawn, and an 'X' mark is made on the map about 2 cm on the left bank of the middle and lower reaches of the Maranon River, indicating that this is the location of the Treasure Valley. Describe the environment around the Treasure Valley with some symbols such as mountains, rivers, valleys, swamps, etc.

Chen Rui couldn't figure out the 2 cm distance from the left bank of the middle and lower reaches of the Maranhion River marked on the map. It might be tens of kilometers, or it might be more than 100 kilometers.

However, it took 4 days to leave the Treasure Valley on November 7 and arrive at the mouth of the Maranhion River on November 11.

It is speculated that this distance is between tens of kilometers and a hundred kilometers, and will not exceed 100 kilometers.

Even so, it is very difficult to go to the Amazon jungle to find the Valley of Treasures with this simple map.

At this time, I helped Carlson Harry knock on the door and came over and said to Chen Rui, "Mr. Chen, Earl Hill's things have been delivered."

"Okay, got it."

Chen Rui put away the diary and the translation of the diary, put it in the drawer, and walked out of the room.

There are two boxes outside.

Earl Hill stood beside him.

"Count Hill, thank you very much." Chen Rui said.

"Open the box and take a look."

Chen Rui nodded, opened the box, it was the head of the sheep.

The sheep's head has a deep color on the outside, bright inside, and realistic style.

The cast is very fine, and the folds and down on the sheep's head are all clear and realistic.

Open another box, is the snake head.

Chen Rui put these two zodiac animal heads in the treasure house, together with the pre-Qin manuscripts in the thatched hut in the Pregnant Sea Pearl Space.

The treasure trove is very safe and can only be opened through Chen Rui's fingerprints, pupil membranes, and an encrypted password of dozens of digits.

---

The next day, Professor Yang found Chen Rui.

"Xiao Rui, I heard that the bronze statues of the 12 zodiac animals, the sheep's head and the snake's head are in your hands."

The sheep's head and the snake's head are in their own hands, and they must not be able to hide from some people.

Besides, Chen Rui didn't want to deceive anyone, but Chen Rui was very curious that Earl Hill only delivered the bronze statue of the animal head yesterday afternoon, and Professor Yang knew it today.
