Anyone familiar with history knows that 1960 was the most disastrous year in Chinese history.

A rare flood occurred in the Yellow River, and almost all the places it passed through were turned into lakes.

In Shangcai County, where the floods were most serious, there was even a tragedy of cannibalism. However, after the flood receded, some bronze lumps unexpectedly broke out.

No one cared about it at first, but after a rural teacher picked up a problem and went to the city to exchange for a lot of money, the villagers' eyes immediately became passionate.

They tied up the village teacher and frightened him, and finally found out that the bronze lumps were not junk, but ancient bronzes, which were worth a lot of money outside.

And since the bronzes were washed out by floods, there must be many ancient tombs near Shangcai County!

As a result, local people joined the ranks of tomb robbers one after another. During that time, no matter it was day or evening, every household was busy carrying hoes, and some people even built bungalows because of it.

The big commotion here naturally attracted many antique dealers from out of town, and my grandfather Li Weiguo was one of them.

That era was the golden age for antique speculation, just like stock speculation today. My grandfather saw the business opportunities and sold his property and moved to Shangcai County, where he set up a long-term stall collecting local goods.

By collecting local goods from villagers and selling them to foreigners at high prices, he increased his family property more than ten times in just one month.

However, the peaceful days were soon broken. One night at about ten o'clock, a skinny old farmer came to the stall, wearing a dirty summer jacket, and his feet were covered in mud.

He held a pickle jar tightly in his arms, and after walking a few steps he looked back, as if he were a thief.

My grandfather knew this man named Wang Stinky Foot, a farmer from Shangcai County, and he laughed and said: "Old man Wang, could it be that the jar you are holding was used by the emperor? Even if it was used by the emperor, our old Li is not the same."

Saw it."

But Wang Stinky Foot sat nervously on the threshold: "I want to sell this thing. It costs one thousand yuan, and there is no need to talk about a penny less."

My grandfather was shocked at the time. With the prices they paid for local goods, a hundred yuan was a huge item. After all, the average salary in the 1960s was only ten yuan. Isn't a thousand oceans a national treasure?

He immediately asked Wang Xijiao to put something on the table and let him open his eyes.

Wang Shoujiao seemed a little worried, but when he thought about the money, he finally gritted his teeth and poured out the contents of the jar.

They were three rectangular copper coins stained with green rust, and they seemed to have writing on them.

My grandfather took a soft-bristled brush and wiped it on the copper coin a few times, and finally he could clearly recognize the writing on it.

Conquer Ni and hate Qin!

Seeing these four words, my grandfather's face flushed and he almost bit off his tongue. But he was a businessman after all, so he immediately pretended to be uninterested and pushed the money away: "Old man Wang, you'd better go to another shop to check it out.

Come on! This is just an ordinary copper coin. It has little collection value. Not even the ghosts want it."

When Wang Shoujiao heard that this thing was worthless, he was so angry that he couldn't bear it. He grabbed my grandfather's clothes and said that my grandfather wanted to defraud him of his treasure.

Wang Stinky Foot is usually an honest person, but today's abnormal behavior immediately aroused my grandfather's curiosity, so he said: "Don't be excited, I will show you something and you will understand."

My grandfather turned around and went to the back room, took out a few coins and put them on the table. They looked almost the same as Wang Shijiao's copper coins.

My grandfather smiled bitterly and said: "Old man Wang, I have received a lot of these copper coins, but now I can't sell them. You come to ask me for a thousand oceans. Isn't this a joke?"

Wang Stinky Foot grabbed the few copper coins in disbelief, and when he saw that they were exactly the same, he hugged my grandfather's thighs and started crying: "Son, I can't help you. I killed you for this piece of shit."

His life was involved..."

It turns out that with more and more people digging for treasures in Shangcai County, the bronze lumps washed out by the flood have long since disappeared, but Wang Shoujiao's family is still poor. In order to let his son marry a wife, he started fighting in the back of his family.

idea.

The hill behind Wang Shoujiao's house is the oldest place in Shangcai County. Because there are many wild animals, no villagers dare to go up there. Wang Shoujiao thought he could dig some treasures, but he did not expect that his son fell into a pit.

When he died, he grabbed a handful of copper coins.

But this handful of copper coins is still trash.

My grandfather deliberately consoled him: "Old man Wang, old man Wang, you are so confused! Accidents often happen on that mountain, and several villagers have died, haven't they? And there are only a few small pits on the mountain where rich people live, so how can we do that?

What kind of treasure did you dig up?"

"It's all my fault. I lost my mind and went crazy to go play in Shannan. My son is gone and my money is gone." Wang Shouji huddled in the corner and cried.

My grandfather secretly remembered the word "Shannan" in his mind, then brought out a jar of wine, and had sex with Wang Shijiao for most of the night, and got everything out of his mouth.

Seeing that Wang Stinky Foot was quite pitiful, my grandfather gave him 100 yuan to support him in his old age. The drunk Wang Stinky Foot thanked him a lot, but was forced out of the stall by my grandfather.

As soon as Wang Stinky Feet was sent away, my grandfather hurriedly closed all the doors and windows. After doing these things, his clothes were soaked with cold sweat!

How did Wang Stinky Foot know that my grandfather had been a calligraphy fan since he was a child, so when he saw the handwriting on the copper coins, he was 100% sure that it was the handwriting of Li Si, the Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty during the Warring States Period.

Li Si is quite famous in history!

He was born in the chaotic Warring States Period. He was a politician at that time, and he was extremely smart. He assisted Qin Shihuang in establishing the Qin Dynasty. However, he was also very smart and vicious. In order to consolidate the rule of the Qin Dynasty, he did notorious things such as burning books and harassing Confucian scholars.

It was all what he suggested to Qin Shihuang. Later, it was considered that evil was punished. After Qin Shihuang's death, Li Si was executed by Qin II because of his high position and his body was fed to the dogs.

Of course, if this was the case, my grandfather would not be so excited. The main reason is that he received a rubbing from the Warring States Period a few years ago, which recorded a major historical secret!

The general idea is that Qin Shihuang entrusted a treasure to Li Si before his death, and warned Li Si not to let any third person know about it, including his son, and that the treasure would be buried with him after his death. However, Li Si did not follow Qin Shihuang's instructions.

, but sealed the treasure in a huge green sheep bottle and hid it himself.

That ends here. My grandfather didn’t take it seriously at first, but as copper coins were unearthed one after another in Shangcai County, my grandfather’s blood boiled!

He guessed that the back hill of Wang Shoujiao's house was probably Li Si's tomb. Although Li Si was executed by Qin II at that time, how could such a clever prime minister not leave a way out for himself?

If Li Si's tomb is found and the Qingyang bottle recorded in the Warring States rubbings is dug out, then he will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life.

Although there are rules in the world of tomb robbers, those who are ignorant cannot enter the tomb, but my grandfather thought about it all day and night, and finally greed overcame his reason. He spent a lot of money to find a group of tough men near Shangcai County, all of whom were

Many of those who have worked in the fields are homeless murderers.

After several days of preparation, a group of people, armed with equipment, arrived at the back mountain mentioned by Wang Xijiao and began to perform acupuncture.

'Pointing', this is no joke, it is the real skill of the local masters. It requires digging Luoyang shovels in various places, identifying the smell from the excavated soil, and then accurately locating the points in the tomb. Those with experience

The local masters often have the golden touch, and they can point directly to the main tomb chamber and avoid the many traps in the tomb.

But I have been busy for two days and dug seven or eight holes, but I have gained nothing.

At this time, someone in the team spoke. He said, Lao Li, the information you gave is wrong. Shannan is full of yang energy. If it is a big tomb, it cannot be located here. Let’s go to the creek in the north of the mountain to have a look. I was thinking about the big tomb.

It's more likely in that area, where the yin energy is very strong.

The person we are talking about is named Nan Paizi. His origin is very mysterious, but he is proficient in various methods. He once single-handedly robbed a tomb of a Song Dynasty general. Some people say that he is a serious gold-touching captain.

When my grandfather heard this, he almost took out his knife and chopped off Wang's smelly feet. Unexpectedly, this old man was so smart that he actually did it to himself.

Everyone went to the north of the mountain in the dark, and Nan Paizi pointed out a few places to put the shovel down.

Suddenly a man shoveled his shovel down, and the sound was a little strange, as if he had hit something hard.

Nan Paizi asked him to quickly pull up the Luoyang shovel. The soil hooked up by the shovel exuded a disgusting smell, and the soil was black. The most terrifying thing was that Nan Paizi grabbed the handful of soil.
