Chapter 61 Jungle Ruins

On the 5th day in the jungle, with the help of their superpowers, Li and his group successfully arrived at the instrument marking location.

"It's near here, and the coordinates indicate here." Professor Miles looked around happily, "This time it went very smoothly. The distance we walked was twice as long as usual. Mr. Li, your Chinese blessings are so useful. I would like to ask for one if I have the chance."

Li smiled awkwardly, it was really bad to deceive honest people. Locke looked around and asked, "Professor, why didn't I see the ruins you mentioned?"

"It should be nearby, we scattered and looked for it."

Li said: "For safety reasons, you three experts are divided into three directions, and we each protect one."

Professor Miles looked at him gratefully, "I'm right. The previous success made me a little careless. Everyone focused on this place, searching for a radius of 1 km, and gathered here in one hour."

An hour later, everyone gathered together again. As soon as Hal saw the others, he said excitedly: "I found it, I found it!"

"Really, where, are you sure you read it right?" The professor grabbed his arms tightly.

"Yes, I'm sure, right there, you can see it after passing a stream." Hal was about to jump up excitedly, "Finley saw it too."

"Yes, it should be the ruins we are looking for. There is a long wall over there." Finley nodded and confirmed Hal's words.

The old professor trembled excitedly, "It's not wrong. It's the wall of the Monkey God City discovered by Theodore Maud in 1940. He mentioned in his diary, let's go."

Locke, who was following behind, asked Dom, “Who is that person named Maud?

"A journalist with a weird temperament, who searched for the 'White City' here in 1940. Five months later, he walked out of the jungle with some cultural relics. However, he refused to tell the location of the ruins. He was worried that someone would go to rob him, but he promised to return there for excavation the next year. However, he never went back. In 1954, he hanged himself in the bathroom. No one could find the ruins again."

When Li heard this, his heart moved. An explorer who could persevere in this terrifying jungle for five months and walked out alive committed suicide in his own bathroom 14 years later? If it was not artificial, then this ruins really don't seem simple.

After wading through a stream and passing through a huge wood, they finally saw the wall.

Due to the dense jungle around, they could only see a small section of the wall, but this small section was enough to surprise them. This was a wall about 5 meters high. Due to the dense vegetation in the jungle, the entire wall had turned green.

Suddenly seeing such a tall building in this dense jungle, Li was amazed at the power of the ancient Moskitians. It seemed that no matter what kind of landform or environment, it could not stop humans.

"Professor, where should we go?" Rock asked.

The professor took out the map and instruments to measure it for a while and pointed in one direction, "Here, the remains found in Honduras are all north-south. I guess the remains here should be too. Walking along the wall to the south, you should be able to find the entrance to this remains.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the end of the wall disappeared under a mound, and of course, the mound was covered with green vegetation.

"Is this the entrance?" Rock asked looking up at the mound.

"Yes, that's it." Seeing this mound, the professor became even more sure.

"The people of Moskitia built public buildings with pebbles, soil, wood, branches and stucco from the river. When these buildings were painted, they looked likely to be comparable to the magnificent pyramids of the Maya. However, once abandoned, they collapsed and collapsed under the erosion of rain, turning into piles of soil and stones, and quickly engulfed by vegetation."

After saying that, the old professor crawled towards the mound first, and everyone immediately followed his footsteps.

"It's here, it's here, I found it, hahaha." Professor Miles, who was the first to climb to the top of the hill, shouting excitedly, alarming a group of birds resting in the trees.

However, when Li and the others arrived at the top of the mountain, they all confirmed that this was the legendary Monkey God City. The forest was still seen below the hill, but it was a forest surrounded by three walls, and the other side was a tall mountain wall. From their perspective, the mountain wall covered with green plants looked like a big green monkey squatting.

Seeing the professor rolling down the hill, they didn't bother to sigh and hurriedly followed, afraid that the excited professor would make some mistakes.

From entering this surrounded jungle, the professor's eyes never left his feet again.

Gradually, Li and the others also saw something wrong. The ground here is different from outside. Although there are thick trees growing, you can still vaguely see some flat grounds where plants cannot grow in the forest.

The professor struggled to scrape a flat ground with a knife, revealing the white stone slabs. Hiss, everyone took a breath of air conditioning. In this place where the stone slabs can be used in this civilization that is used to build buildings, it must have a high status or significance. It seems that they really found the right thing this time.

Everyone joined the ranks of the head-down tribe. Gradually, they discovered tables and stools made of stones and sculptures of various animals one by one.

When the professor saw Hal put a stone statue of half a leopard and half a man into his backpack and straightened his waist to rest for a while, he couldn't help but scolded: "Idiot, this is just a square. We have to continue to go deeper, and it's time to get it out."

Hal had no choice but to put the statue on the ground reluctantly. Li looked at the lifelike statue and felt an ominous premonition in his heart.

After a morning of excavation, the professor and the other two found an altar, house, and a large square in this city surrounded by walls.

At noon, the group gathered in an open space in the city to eat.

"Professor, isn't this a city of gold? Why did you search for it all morning, but you didn't find even a single item of gold?" Locke ate quickly. After finishing his portion in three bites, he couldn't help but ask questions in his heart.

"In the eyes of Moskitians, gold is a sacrifice for worshipping gods. It usually does not appear in ordinary people's homes. I think we will see it when we enter the city of the monkeys in the afternoon." After saying that, the old professor's eyes seemed to have passed through the dense jungle and looked at the direction of the mountain wall.

The charm of gold seems to be relatively powerful, and everyone's eating speed has significantly accelerated.

After dinner, they came to the front of the mountain wall and finally saw the city of Divine Monkeys clearly. The materials of this building are similar to those of the previous buildings, but the foundation frame uses the stone I saw on the ground before, so it did not turn into a mound like the city gate. However, the soil outside is still covered with various plants, but this is why no one has discovered it for so many years.

Everyone was ready at the entrance, and Locke also placed his pistol in a convenient position. Under the guidance of the professor, they walked into this ancient city that had been covered with dust for many years.

Li gave Jessica and the others a wink and asked them to protect Hal and the others, and he followed closely behind Professor Miles.
