The straight-line distance from Polillo to San Fernando is about 300 kilometers, which is more than enough for the range of this A139 helicopter.And by helicopter, it would take you an hour and a half to reach San Fernando, but by boat, it would be close to 500 nautical miles and would take about 30 hours.Yang Jing really wasn't in the mood to wait so long, because the next three locations were all in the northern part of Luzon, two of which were located in the middle of the city and the other in the mountains.If he hadn't encountered this series of natural disasters, Yang Jing might still be in the mood to drive a yacht by sea, but now, after seeing so much death and destruction, he really didn't have much of a mood.In addition to the two pilot positions, the A139 helicopter has fifteen seats in the passenger cabin, which means that it can carry seventeen people.Yang Jing and his party were exactly sixteen people, counting the original pilot of this helicopter, there were exactly seventeen people, and they could all be pulled to San Fernando at one time.If you want to talk about the country of the Philippines, it is really strange, this country is obviously Asian, but whether it is a name of a person or a place, most of them have a strong Spanish style.It seems that the country has been ruled by Spain for hundreds of years, and it has not been ruled in vain.But again, with the characteristics of the Spanish name, the place name is really a bit barren, so in the Philippines, there are many places with the same name.Sometimes a place name can be used in many places, it can be the name of the city, it can also be the name of the bay, or it can be the name of the valley, just like Yang Jing and the San Fernando they went to, there are two most famous places in the Philippines alone, and both places are the capital cities of the Philippine provinces.In the northwest of Luzon is the province of La Union, whose capital is San Fernando.And in central Luzon, northwest of Manila, there is another province called Pampanga.The capital of this province is also called San Fernando, so when many Filipinos want to go to one of them, San Fernando, they must explain that they are going to San Fernando in that province, otherwise whether it is a car or a train, it is easy to pull you to the wrong place.Yang Jing: The San Fernando they are going to is the port city of San Fernando further north.The city has a rich history, with the Cordillera Central to the east, the South China Sea to the west, and the Lingayen Bay to the south.Of the remaining three hidden locations, this one in San Fernando is the southernmost one, while the other two are further north.The specific coordinates of this hidden location in San Fernando are 166 degrees north latitude and 1203 degrees east longitude.If you look at the satellite map, the location happens to be an old Catholic church, located in the old town not far from the port.The history of San Fernando dates back to the Spanish colonization of the Philippines, when the city was already in its infancy.Later, the Americans drove out the Spaniards and became the emperor of the Philippines, and they focused on building a port in the city, making the city a port city.Later, he drove the Americans out of the Philippines and occupied the country, and this port city naturally became an important port for him to transport the resources he had looted from Southeast Asian countries to the mainland.The city is arguably the most important and largest port in northern Luzon, and a large amount of goods transit through this port every year.However, although the city is now quite large, it was not a large city during the Spanish rule, and the city was only a small area near the port, which is known as the old town of the local population, or the Kata Pangan district.The Catholic church, where the sixth hiding place is located, is located just west of Kata Pangan.The helicopter, under the joint control of Chris and the pilot, flew to San Fernando in just an hour and a half, because it was far from Catandunes Island and separated by a huge island of Luzon, so it was not affected by the tsunami, but suffered some damage during the passage of Super Typhoon Hagupit No. 4.When Yang Jing and the others arrived here, the traces left after the storm could still be seen on the street, and some green trees had been uprooted and still fell on the street, and they had not yet had time to be cleared.Yang Jing's hotel is not in Kata Pangen, but in the north of the new city area, although Kata Pangen has a long history, but most of the houses here are very old, there are few modern buildings, and only a few kilometers away in the new city there are some luxury hotels.But fortunately, the transportation in the city is very convenient, and it is also convenient to rent a car after staying, and you can go to the old church at any time.After staying, Yang Jing gave the helicopter pilot a sum of money and let him go around and play by himself, and his helicopter was directly taken over by Chris and Bruno.The driver knew that the two drivers were even better than him, and that they would get an extra bonus, so he happily accepted the money, rented a car, and began to walk around the neighborhood.Morris, on the other hand, rented four Mitsubishi Pajero, so that he could travel in any way he wanted, whether it was flying in the sky or running on the ground.After dinner in the evening, everyone had a good night's rest, and the next morning, Yang Jing and his group drove to Kata Bangen, south of the hotel, ready to take a closer look at this ancient Catholic church.If you can still experience the charm of a modern city when you are in the new city just now, then when you enter Kata Pangen, a strong historical charm will come to you.Kata Pangen is not large, the longest distance from north to south is less than two kilometers, and the fastest from east to west is less than one kilometer.This area was the first military camp established by the Spaniards, and it has slowly developed into its current form with this area as the center.Therefore, in Kata Pangen, you can see hundreds of years of old buildings everywhere, and some brick and stone buildings are even two or three hundred years old.It's like the destination of this visit, the Catholic church built in the mid-18th century, is a typical masonry structure, almost 300 years old.The church is located on the edge of a vacant lot, surrounded by old two- or three-story buildings in all three directions, except for a large open space on the east side, which are hundreds of years old, some of which were simply built by the Spaniards.When the Spaniards ruled the Philippines, it was the main residence of the Spaniards in San Fernando, and the Spanish lord's mansion in San Fernando was located not far east of this church."
Boss, this doesn't look like a place to hide treasures."
Clark, dressed as a tourist, asked Yang Jing in a low voice while looking at the ancient church.Yang Jing smiled slightly, and said in a low voice: "The more impossible it is to hide treasures, the more likely it is to hide treasures."
Don't you understand such a simple truth?
If a place that looks like a treasure trove, how can the treasure be preserved?
”Clark scratched the back of his head and said a little embarrassed, "Okay boss, who made you the leader?"
It's up to you to solve such a brain-burning matter, I'm only responsible for charging for you. ”Chris on the side also asked in a low voice, "Boss, is there really a treasure hidden here?"
”Yang Jing nodded slightly, and said with an irrepressible smile on his face: "That's right, if I'm not mistaken, there should indeed be treasures buried here, and there are quite a few of them." ”"Really?
Is there really a treasure here?
”Gege, who had been holding Yang Jing's arm, also asked in surprise."
Well, it's true that there are treasures here, but the key is how we should get them out.Because these treasures are buried deep underneath this church. ”Chris looked around the church and said, "Why don't we go in first and see what's going on inside?"
”Everyone nodded, Yang Jing nodded at Morris, Morris immediately went to negotiate with the priest of the church, and after a while, Morris came back and said, "The priest is very happy to let us visit this ancient church. ”Then visit it!
The closer you get, you can feel the thick sense of history of this church more clearly.The walls of the church are made of large rocks, which look extremely solid, and the roof must have only been changed for a short time, so you can see the difference at a glance.The walls are covered with creepers, enveloping almost the entire walls of the church.The church is north-facing, with a gate open due south, and above the gate is a tall and sharp Gothic tower with a huge cross at the top of the tower.The architectural style of this Gothic church is exactly in line with the church architecture of the time.Upon entering the church, the crowd found that it was very spacious, and like most Catholic churches, the walls and glass windows and the dome were painted, and it seemed that these paintings were very old.Below, there are two rows of wooden seats, with a wide aisle in the middle, and a small confessional pavilion in the corner of the church.At the front of the church, in addition to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, there are statues of the Virgin Mary and St.
Joseph the Great on both sides, and there are fourteen statues of the Way of the Cross where Jesus Christ walked.Chris: They are Protestant, not Catholic, so they just bowed slightly to the statue of God and began to look at the church carefully.As the boss said just now, there is a lot of treasure buried in the underground of this church, and they have to look for it to see if there is a passage entrance to the underground.
