The Old Dragon Head was built by Qi Jiguang, the commander-in-chief of Ji Town.
It stands on the South China Sea in Shanhaiguan and is the only place where the Great Wall reaches the sea in its thousands of miles.
The old dragon's head is seven feet into the sea, and 15,000 military engineers could only wait for the sea to ebb before it could be built urgently.
Because of this, it was so difficult to build the old faucet.
But the sea is ruthless.
It rises every three days and sets every five days.
The city wall cannot be built eight feet high.
When the tide comes, the bricks and stones will be washed to pieces.
Once it is repaired, it will collapse again.
The longer time goes by, the more lives will be buried at the bottom of the sea.
At first, Qi Jiguang planned to build thirty-two passes at Laolongtou, set up three thousand enemy towers, and cast an iron cannon weighing five thousand pounds.
In the Ming Dynasty at that time, traitors were in power, and the traitors wrote letters one after another saying that Qi Jiguang was wasting people and money, and was hiding his selfish motives.
The Ming Emperor also listened to the slander and sent a favored eunuch as an imperial envoy to Ji Town to supervise the army without caring about the facts.
As soon as the eunuch father-in-law arrived in Jizhou, he immediately went straight to Shanhaiguan without stopping.
The imperial envoy gave Qi Jiguang three days to dismantle the old faucet that had laid the foundation.
Qi Jiguang thought about the safety of the country and the lives and property of the people, and made up his mind to complete the project regardless of his own safety.
When the imperial envoy saw that Qi Jiguang dared to disobey the imperial edict, disobey his own orders, and defy the emperor, he immediately decided to return to Beijing and report to the emperor, saying that Qi Jiguang violated the imperial edict and instead of demolishing the old dragon head project, he intensified the construction.
On the night when Laolongtou was completed, Qi Jiguang learned that he would be summoned to Beijing by the emperor soon, and he might never return.
But there is still one most important thing in his heart that has not been finished, which is the large amount of materials and treasures collected by the Qi family army from the Japanese pirates.
Logically speaking, all the money gained after the war should be handed over to the state treasury intact in accordance with the laws of the Ming Dynasty.
However, during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor was incompetent and corrupt officials gathered.
If these treasures were handed over to the state treasury in full, It is certain that not a penny will fall into the hands of ordinary people.
Qi Jiguang thought that instead of doing this, it would be better to use these properties to recruit troops to fight against Japan and distribute them to the people who really needed them.
On the night when the old dragon head was repaired, Qi Jiguang knew that his return to Beijing would be unlucky, so he assigned an official in the army who had experienced life and death with him overnight to transfer all the treasures out of the army and hide them in a place.
Because all this was done in secret, and a poisonous oath was sworn before the operation, no one could tell the secret during their lifetime, so no one knew where the treasure was hidden.
The next day after everything was settled, the emperor's imperial envoy rushed to Qi Jiguang's military camp and escorted Qi Jiguang back to Beijing.
After arriving in the capital, the emperor put Qi Jiguang in jail for the following crimes and disobeying the imperial edict, and he was scheduled to be executed at a later date.
However, because the then prime minister Zhang Juzheng loved talents and cherished people, he opened up relationships at all levels and tried his best to maintain it in front of the emperor.
Finally Qi Jiguang was saved from death Although Qi Jiguang was released from prison and exempted from the death penalty, his official position was demoted and he was placed under house arrest in a special mansion and was no longer allowed to move around freely. , participate in political affairs.
Until Zhang Juzheng died of illness, Qi Jiguang was depressed in the following years.
He eventually died of illness, and the great man's life withered away.
As for the treasures he buried, they were slowly forgotten with the passage of time.
No one knows the true whereabouts of the treasures. .
I, Fatty, Shirey Yang and a group of three people entered the old dragon head built by Qi Jiguang today and went through all the difficulties to pass the mechanism he built when he built the old dragon head.
It was not easy, and we accidentally discovered this secret passage at the last moment of clearance.
We don’t know where this secret passage will lead us.
Could this secret passage be the place where Qi Jiguang buried his treasure?
All of this is unknown and can only be explored and discovered by us.
This secret passage is not very wide, and it is a bit crowded if two people go forward side by side, so the three of us, with me in front, Shiry Yang in the middle, and Fatty at the end, moved forward in order.
This secret passage became more and more downward as we walked further in.
Finally, we were all going downhill, and the smell of sea water became stronger and stronger.
The further we went down, the more we could hear the sound of sea water lapping against the old dragon head city wall hovering above our heads.
If it's not what I expected, we should have gone below the sea level, that is to say, we have now reached the sea, but because of the protection of the city wall, we did not feel this change.
"Lao Hu, Staff Officer Yang, why do I feel like we have reached below the sea level?
It feels cool on top of our heads, and the sea water is lapping on top."

The fat man raised his head and said.
"Fat man, you are right.
We have already reached the bottom of the sea.
I didn't expect that this old faucet was built so wonderfully.
It separated the sea water from the outside and made it into an open space.
It seems that inside There should be a lot of secrets."
I said.
"There is indeed something fishy here, we'd better be careful."
Shiry Yang told us.
The three of us walked along the secret passage while carefully observing the surrounding environment, for fear of touching something that shouldn't be touched, but it seemed that our worries were unnecessary.
After walking for a while, we saw a door appear.
At the end of this secret passage.
This door looks like an iron door from the outside.
It may have been covered with rust due to the humid environment around it.
The three of us came to the front of the folding iron door.
The door was three meters high and two meters wide by visual inspection.
My intuition Tell me, there must be something we want to find behind this door.
"His grandma, how come there is such a door in this place, and why does this door look so dirty?
I think there must be some ulterior secrets behind this door.
My fat man is going to die from here today.
After so many circles in Chenghai Tower, I finally found my final destination, I guess.
There must be piles of gold and silver in this place.
After entering, no one can grab it from me.
Everything in it belongs to you, fat man.
Otherwise, I will be sorry for the bullshit room that the fat man left today.
I lost ten pounds while walking."
The fat man said, trying to kick the door open with his foot.
"No, no, no, no, fat man, please be merciful.
Let's take a long-term approach.
First of all, you don't know what's inside this door, and you don't know if there is any hidden weapon on this door.
If you kick it blindly, you'll stumble upon it. , if a lot of arrows fly, wouldn't Shiry Yang and I become hedgehogs with you?
" "Hey, look at what you said.
Who do you imagine your fat man to be?
Then when people mention Comrade Wang Kaixuan, it's not like everyone praises him for being brave and resourceful, and for being calm in the face of strong winds and waves.
How is that possible?
Today I got into trouble because of such a small problem.
Even if you asked me to kick you, I would still be unwilling to kick you.
I just raised my foot because it felt sore from walking this way, so I wanted to lift it up and take a rest.
"The fat man explained without blushing.
"Okay, Comrade Wang Kaixuan, I know you are a big man who has experienced strong winds and waves.
You'd better stand aside and let me observe this door first."
As I spoke, I carefully approached the door.
The door was just an ordinary iron door, but how could I open it?
I decided to try pulling on it first to see if I could force it open.
I turned around and signaled Fatty and Shiry Yang stepped back first, because I was about to open the door, but they were afraid of touching some mechanism and not hurting them.

Moreover, if they stood behind me like this, they would not be able to move flexibly.
Shiry Yang and Fatty understood what I meant, and each stepped back a few feet.
I saw that they were already out of range, so I started to pull the door open
