Before everyone's eyes,
a winding pebble path led to a building nestled halfway up the mountain.
This building on the mountainside looked quite unique, with a retro structure that resembled ancient eaves.
Walking up, they saw pavilions, terraces, and towers, all complete.
Standing on the mountainside, everyone finally saw the different sides of this mountain; in front, there was a huge stone with the words: Purple Imperial Hot Spring Resort.
Damn it.
This was a bit much, wasn't it?
A resort?
Everyone had traveled so far, only for this Silver Mountain to be a hot spring resort?
Feeling somewhat unwilling, everyone entered the resort to take a look.
The environment inside this resort was excellent, with pavilions, terraces, towers, rockeries, and various precious trees.
Although some trees had withered, others had stubbornly survived.
The items inside this resort were very well preserved, perhaps because the entire world had been affected by that XG thing before.
So, it wasn't open for business at this time. Seeing how good the environment was, especially with some seemingly expensive items, everyone started to turn into bandits, packing up everything useful they could find.
Li Hang even found some trolleys in the storage room to help everyone transport things.
Speaking of the storage room, one had to mention a wine cellar found here. This wine cellar contained hundreds of barrels of red wine, all originally imported, as well as some internationally renowned rare red wines:
Romanée-Conti, Le Pin, Lafite, Ausone, Latour, Margaux, Mouton Rothschild, and Haut-Brion. There were many varieties, looking quite impressive, though it was unclear if they were genuine.
As for white wine, surprisingly, there were only a few types: Maotai, Wuliangye, and Jiannanchun.
There were also some craft beers.
Everyone was excited to see all this good wine!
Li Tie simply took a few people to drive the vehicles from the foot of the mountain up. In the process, the exquisite pebble-paved road was completely ruined.
But that didn't matter; they wouldn't be coming back anyway, and it seemed they still hadn't found any firearms this time.
They would use this to vent their frustration and make up for not finding any firearms.
This place was located in the wilderness, with hardly any human traces within 10 kilometers, so there were many stored items.
Perhaps it was also because human traces were rare around here that the items in this estate could be preserved.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have benefited Li Yu and the others.
Besides the alcohol, they also found some cigarettes.
In the storage room, because the people who left had considered being away for a long time, the space was relatively sealed.
There were no vegetables, and although there was some frozen meat in the refrigerator, it was mostly inedible.
These were all Waste, but after searching, they also found about 5 boxes of pasta and 10 bags of rice.
There were about 7 boxes of puffed snacks and 4 boxes of candied fruits and preserves.
Additionally, there were some other foods with long shelf lives; although some were only marked for one year, their shelf life would actually be longer after frying or vacuum packaging.
At least for now, there was no problem eating them.
My uncle liked strange trees and stones; at this time, he moved away an extremely rare Taihu stone.
This Taihu stone alone, if placed before the apocalypse, would have sold for at least several hundred thousand yuan, and he also dug up several of the largest Huashan pines and ancient plum trees.
These trees, my uncle did not occupy space in the heavy truck but tied them to the roof of the car, looking from afar as if the car had grown a few trees.
Li Yu: “…”
Li Tie: “…”
Song Min, on the other hand, was not as interested in these things. After everyone had collected food and daily necessities, she found a dressing room and cleared out all the beauty products, lipsticks, and perfumes inside.
Everyone worked without interfering with each other. After all, they hadn't found any firearms this time and were about to return to the base. Since they were going back, they had to bring something with them.
Moreover, they had searched two places and found nothing, so they had to vent their frustration.
That was... to empty this place as much as possible.
While everyone was busy moving things, Li Hang suddenly found Li Yu, his face full of excitement.
"Brother, I just found a secret passage! Holy cow! It's so exciting!" Li Hang said excitedly.
"Secret passage?" Li Yu asked, puzzled.
Could it be that this place was a hot spring resort on the surface, but secretly stored firearms?
That shouldn't be. Such a place shouldn't be like that.
Li Yu was a bit puzzled, so he called over Li Tie, who was moving an antique blue and white porcelain vase, and asked him and Li Gang to go take a look.
This hot spring resort looked very high-end, with some antiques displayed in tempered glass in the central area. Li Tie wanted to move them, unsure if they were real or fake.
"Oh, okay." Li Tie let go of his hand, and a blue and white porcelain vase smashed to the ground, shattering.
My uncle, who had some knowledge, picked up a fragment from the bottom of the bottle on the ground and said with a twitch, "This seems to be genuine. Before the apocalypse, this would probably have been worth several hundred thousand yuan."
"It's fine, there are two more over there." Li Tie pointed to the side.
Alright, it didn't seem like a big deal.
The others didn't feel much either; antiques had little value in the apocalypse, but it was nice to have some.
Everyone came to the secret passage Li Hang had just mentioned.
It was at the very back of the resort, behind a fire door.
Behind the fire door should have been a small electrical room.
But this electrical room was very strange; it was quite large inside, with very few items.
The largest area was another door, about 3 meters high and 2 meters wide.
In the very center of it was a red button; when pressed,
the door slowly moved to the right!
It wasn't dark inside; instead, it was full of light. The structure was quite ingenious, using differential partitioning to bring light into the space through transparent glass.
Through reflection, the inside would not appear dark at all.
A long, long passage led down to another place.
The opening of this large door was just like in many movie scenes, with light from inside shining on the faces of the three people.
Opening this door seemed to open the door to a new world.
Where did this door lead? All three were filled with anticipation.
Just by looking at the setup, it was clear that what was inside was not simple.
The three continued to walk inside, at first the passage was narrow, only wide enough for two people to walk side-by-side. After walking dozens of steps, the front suddenly opened up.
The space ahead was very large, at least several hundred square meters. Directly in front was a huge turntable, with some stools on it.
The surrounding walls were resplendent, and huge crystal chandeliers hung down, casting a dreamlike glow from the scattered lights above.
This place was quite high-class.
This was the first impression the three had upon entering.
