Chapter 246 - Chapter 247 Killing the Father and the Mother
"Brother Zhuang, your Tibetan Mastiff is so awesome!"
Seeing that the danger was over, the two of them ran back quickly. The little girl's love for the white lion was beyond words, and she wanted to rush up to hug the white lion and kiss it.
"Don't go there..."
Zhuang Rui grabbed Meng Qiuqian. The white lion subdued this man just now because he was unexpected. If he let him go, he might try to subdue him again, and the white lion would hurt someone.
"Um, mom, whose dog is this? Hurry up and pull away, someone is going to die."
At this moment, Er Mao and Fan Cuo also ran over panting, followed by an old lady, one of the people who delivered meals at noon. When they saw a man and a dog lying on the ground, they couldn't help but shout loudly.
Zhuang Rui ignored the old woman and asked Er Mao: "Er Mao, is this person from your village? Why do you want to stab someone with a knife when you come up?"
"This is not from our village. This is Yu Laosan, a relative of a family in our village. Brother Zhuang, come here and I will tell you..."
Er Mao glanced at the man on the ground, pulled Zhuang Rui out for more than ten meters, and told Zhuang Rui the man's origin in a low voice.
It turns out that Yu Laosan came to Liujiazhuang a year ago, and is a relative of the Yu family's eldest son from Henan. Since he was relatively poor, he couldn't stay outside anymore, so he followed Yu Laoshan here to make a living.
Farmers are relatively simple. Although Yu Laosan looks scary, no one laughs at him. Who knows that Yu Laosan's wine is not good, he likes to pick fights when he drinks too much, and he often teases the little ones in the farm.
Wife and eldest daughter.
Liujiazhuang was a place where martial arts passed down the family tradition. There were many martial arts styles in the village. After teaching Yu Laosan a few lessons, Yu Laosan sent him to this mountain nest to look at the orchard on the pretext that this relative was too trouble-making.
Er Mao was also afraid of losing his life, so he whispered to Zhuang Rui: "Brother Zhuang, let him go. We are here, and he doesn't dare to cause trouble..."
"White Lion, come here..."
Zhuang Rui greeted him, and the white lion stretched out its blood-red tongue and licked Yu Laosan's face before releasing his paw and running back to Zhuang Rui.
"It's killing people, biting people to death!"
This lick frightened Yu Laosan so much that he howled again at the top of his lungs. After barking a few times, he found that the big dog was no longer there. He quickly got up without standing upright and even rolled around.
He climbed over the railing and didn't even know the shorts were down to his knees. He looked at the white lion next to Zhuang Rui with lingering fear.
"rogue……"
The little girl spat and turned her face away.
"You let us in, we are just taking some underground soil samples, we will not damage your orchard..."
Zhuang Rui heard that the orchard was indeed contracted by people from Liu's Village, and he didn't want to get into too much trouble with them. After all, he was still Lao San's guest.
"You said you can't destroy it, so why don't you destroy it? What if the Luoyang shovel in your hands breaks the roots of the tree? This orchard is contracted by my elder brother. No one can come in without his instructions."
Yu Laosan also came to his senses at this time. Although he did not dare to go out to find trouble, his tone was still very arrogant, saying that he would not let Zhuang Rui and others in.
"Luoyang Shovel?"
Zhuang Rui was stunned when he heard this term from Yu Laosan. Although he had heard the name of Luoyang shovel for a long time, he would not have recognized it as a Luoyang shovel if he had not seen it with his own eyes. Why did Yu Laosan say this?
Can you call it out in one bite?
Maybe there are too many tomb robbers in Shaanxi. They have all seen it. Zhuang Rui remembered what Er Mao once said to him and found an explanation, but there was still a doubt in his heart.
"Yes, this is the orchard contracted by our brothers from the Yu family of Zhuangzi. If you go in and dig randomly, who is responsible for the loss?"
The middle-aged woman who came with Er Mao also spoke to Yu Laosan, but Zhuang Rui was a little surprised that there were three or four old ladies who came to deliver the meal, so why was she the only one to fight against the injustice?
"Xiaozhuang, you should dig some holes outside here first to check the soil quality. Don't argue with the fellow villagers."
Professor Meng also got the news and walked over with a hiking pole.
"Grandpa, this person is unreasonable and acting like a hooligan." The little girl complained. She had never seen anything so ugly, and her heart was still pounding.
Professor Meng ignored his granddaughter and told Zhuang Rui and others: "Okay, it's too hot today. You can extract the soil around here, and then we can go back."
Zhuang Rui and others agreed, and each found a place to dig down with a Luoyang shovel. When Yu Laosan saw that the others did not ask to enter the orchard, he turned around and went back, cursing.
Taking soil samples with a Luoyang shovel is also a laborious task. At the beginning, you have to slam the shovel down with your hands. After the Luoyang shovel is drilled into the soil, you can then lift it up. In the middle of the semicircular shovel,
A round tube of soil will be brought up.
When Zhuang Rui first started drilling the hole, it was quite difficult. However, when he made a small hole with a diameter of about twenty to thirty centimeters and a depth of about two meters, he found a trick. It turns out that the deeper you go, the deeper the hole becomes.
The easier it is, after the hole is deeper, you can use the inertia generated by the Luoyang shovel itself to penetrate deeper into the soil, and you only need to lift the shovel up.
Professor Meng also followed Zhuang Rui and taught him how to use force and energy. There is also skill in this. You can use the weight of the Luoyang shovel to knock down the Luoyang shovel with very little effort.
After some teachings from Professor Meng, Zhuang Rui became more proficient in his movements after he figured out the trick. In addition, he could use spiritual energy to eliminate the numbness and weakness in his arms. Basically, he was like a robot.
He kept repeating an action, making the little girl next to him look dumbfounded.
While Xiao Fan and Ying Ning were still competing with the first cave, Zhuang Rui had already started digging the third cave. The first two caves were dug down to a depth of 14 to 5 meters. In the soil brought out by the Luoyang shovel,
After the little girl's identification, there was no cooked soil.
Zhuang Rui is also learning to distinguish the difference between cooked soil and raw soil, which is an important basis for discovering whether there are tombs underground.
Mature soil can also be called five-flower soil, because when digging a grave pit, the layers of mature soil and raw soil of different colors in the pit will be dug out. After burial, these mixed soils will be backfilled into the pit to form a
The so-called Wuhua soil, under normal circumstances, if the soil brought out by the Luoyang shovel is Wuhua soil, there are nine out of ten tombs underneath.
And from the five-flower soil, you can also distinguish the topographic distribution of the tomb pits. If the five-flower soil is thin and scattered, it may be the tomb passage. If it is thick and concentrated, it may be the tomb chamber. In this way, after looking at the soil, you can
We are locating to find the tomb.
As for the difference between mature soil and raw soil, it requires a certain amount of experience. Simply put, some Wuhua soil contains cultural relics such as weeds, construction waste, human relics, etc., while native soil does not.
Of course, some Wuhua soil is relatively pure, so you need to carefully observe the soil quality. Generally speaking, soil contains pores. The pores in Wuhua soil are messy, while the pores in native soil are
Basically vertical.
It is difficult to have an intuitive impression of these things in oral writing. Under the guidance of the little girl, Zhuang Rui identified the soil brought out by Luoyang shovel one by one. He understood the raw soil, but he hit four in a row.
When exploring the cave more than ten meters deep, no five-flowered soil was found.
Although Zhuang Rui would use his spiritual energy to check the underground conditions before choosing a place to dig in Luoyang. However, the soil gave him the same feeling. Occasionally, there would be some rocks, rotten tree roots and the like, but there were no
No tombs exist.
"Boom!"
As the Luoyang shovel made a dull sound when it came into contact with the underground soil, Zhuang Rui quickly pulled the rope with his hands alternately, lifted the Luoyang shovel up, and knocked it on the ground a few times, letting the soil brought out by the shovel scatter on the ground.
This is already the fifth time he has done caving. The people next to him have been stunned. Judging from Zhuang Ruisi's gentle appearance, no one expected that he has such great strength and endurance. No wonder
Just now you dared to compete with that strong man with a yin and yang face.
"Ahem... Xiaozhuang, take a rest. This Rome was not built in a day. I will go back to the excavation place over there later and I will show you the five-flowered soil..."
Professor Meng was also a little overwhelmed by Zhuang Rui's motivation. When he was young, he would have to take a half-day break even after two caving expeditions. Unexpectedly, this young man was not only knowledgeable, but also a fierce and powerful man.
"It's okay, you're not tired, Professor Meng. I'll rest after finishing this cave exploration."
While talking casually to Professor Meng, Zhuang Rui lifted the Luoyang shovel up again. The cave he was digging was already very close to the fruit forest. Judging from the length of the rope that had been lowered, it could be seen that the cave had been explored for fourteen months.
It's five meters deep.
"Hey, the color of this soil is a little wrong?"
Zhuang Rui discovered that the tube of soil brought up by Luoyang's shovel did not spread out after being knocked to the ground, but stood up in a cylindrical shape. The color of the soil was brown, which was completely different from the soil sample just taken out.
Zhuang Rui squatted down and pushed the soil away with his hands. He saw that the brown color was in the shape of a line. He rubbed it with his fingers and it immediately turned into powder, which did not look like soil.
Professor Meng's face was a little solemn, he looked around and said, "This brown color is not soil."
"Isn't it soil?" Zhuang Rui was stunned for a moment.
"Well, these are the traces left after the wood rotted in the soil. You can see that the edges are very neat and the lines are straight. It is not wood that has died naturally and rotted away, but has been processed."
As he spoke, Professor Meng stood up, looked at the orchard not far away, and said almost to himself: "It is indeed that place. I wonder how many things can be left behind."
"What did you say?" Zhuang Rui did not hear Professor Meng's words clearly.
"Nothing, just go call them and call it a day..."
Professor Meng did not answer Zhuang Rui's words. He trampled the clods of soil in the ground with his feet and turned around to leave, leaving a confused Zhuang Rui standing there stupidly.
"This...didn't it say that there are tombs underneath Wuhuatu? Why did you just leave?"
Zhuang Rui was a little confused by Professor Meng's actions. Aren't they just here to dig up the imperial tomb? Looking at Professor Meng's behavior, it seemed that he didn't care much about the location of the tomb. He looked at Professor Meng who was walking away.
, Zhuang Rui had no choice but to follow.
Back at the excavation site, Professor Meng greeted everyone, packed up everything, and returned. The villagers were very happy. After all, one day's work only paid fifty yuan, so who wouldn't be happy with less work? Three or five
They walked towards Zhuangzi in groups.
"Xiao Fan, I just found some soil in the cave. Why did Professor Meng call me back instead?"
Zhuang Rui had been holding this question in his mind and asked Fan Cuo who was walking beside him.
"The teacher may have other ideas, right? Brother Zhuang, you are right to listen to the teacher."
It is said that graduate students are just workers for their tutors. Fan Cuo and Ying Ning only work on projects with the teacher and do not need to ask about anything else. Professor Meng treats them well anyway. They have room and board at their own home, and every month
There is also a living allowance of several hundred yuan, which is much better than those students who are squeezed by their tutors and don't have a penny.
Zhuang Rui could only put his doubts back in his stomach. More than an hour later, everyone returned to the village. The county staff had motorcycles and rushed back to the county directly from the village. Professor Meng and others also
Returning to the rented farmhouse, Zhuang Rui discovered that the place where they lived was not far from the third child's family, that is, three or five houses away.
Zhuang Rui asked if there were any vacancies over there, so he might as well find Lao San, talk about the matter, and move to Professor Meng's place. After all, he couldn't keep occupying Lao San's new house.
…
"Woof... woof woof..."
"Don't scream, it's Sister Bigfoot. Are you bringing food back?"
When Boss Yu heard the barking of dogs in the yard, he quickly walked out and tied up the two wolves.
"Brothers of the Yu family, I ran back all the way to tell you that the archaeological team wanted to dig in your orchard, but I stopped them. You have to think of a way quickly.
In two months, this fruit will be ripe."
Boss Yu opened the door to the courtyard, and the old lady who had just brought food to the archaeological team started gesticulating at Boss Yu with a smile on her face, and the spit from her mouth splashed onto Boss Yu's face.
"Haha, sister-in-law Bigfoot, she is from the government, can we stop her? Thank you very much for this today. By the way, my eldest nephew got married the year before last. You see, I happened to go to Henan to visit relatives. This money
Take it and treat it as my gift money."
A sinister look flashed in Boss Yu's eyes, but he covered it up immediately. He took out a crumpled hundred-yuan bill from his pocket, made a distressed look on his face, and handed the money to him.
Feet sister-in-law.
"Oh, how can this be so embarrassing? Just pay thirty or fifty yuan, a hundred is too much..."
Bigfoot sister-in-law said sorry, she already took the money in her hand, pinched it with two fingers and shook it. After hearing a crisp sound, she put the money into her pocket with satisfaction, and kept mumbling.
He said: "Brothers of the Yu family, you go find the secretary. You can't let those people mess around with this matter. If all the fruit trees that have been planted for several years are cut down, what a big loss it will be."
"Hey, sister-in-law Bigfoot, don't you know? I am an honest person but a stupid person. If the government really wants to do this, I have no choice. The secretary and I are not familiar with each other. You see..."
With a frown on his face, Boss Yu fumbled around for a long time and found a fifty-yuan note, which he forcedly gave to Bigfoot Sister-in-law.
"Our village decided to contract this orchard to you. It has been losing money in the past few years. Everyone can see it. Brother Yu, don't worry. I will go to the secretary's house in the evening. My second uncle will definitely give me this face.
of."
Bigfoot sister-in-law held the money in her hand, patted her chest and said, she didn't expect Boss Yu to be so generous, but she just asked her to pay attention to the archaeological team when delivering food a few days ago, so that they don't dig up her orchard.
It's only one hundred and fifty yuan, so I have to do some help myself, otherwise it will be a bit heart-burning to hold on to the money.
Boss Yu rubbed his hands, looked at the cold stove at home, and said a little embarrassedly: "I really want to thank you, sister-in-law Bigfoot, let's have dinner here before leaving. Look, my mother is not at home.
I'm going to buy two groceries."
"No, big brother, just wait. I'll go to my second uncle's house later and make sure they don't touch your orchard." Sister-in-law Bigfoot looked at the poor family and curled her lips secretly.
The body also walked outside.
After sending the old lady off with a lot of gratitude, Yu Ku's face turned gloomy. She looked around, turned around, closed the courtyard door, and hurriedly walked into the house.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Mr. Yu’s family is poor. There are three bungalows and a courtyard. Except for a bed in the main room, a cabinet and a table for eating, there is no other furniture. This was not originally like this, just a few
Years ago, when Boss Yu was contracting the orchard, he sold out all his belongings, and the news spread to the town.
After returning to the room, Yu Ju closed the door tightly, and the room suddenly became dark. Boss Yu did not turn on the light, so he took a pair of scissors from the table, walked to the bed and lay down, and found a piece of green under the head of the bed.
After knocking on the brick and hearing the echo of "empty", I inserted scissors into the gap of the turning head and pried up the green brick.
There was nothing underneath the brick. Yu Ku reached out and took out a small handbag and stood up.
Opening the handbag, in addition to a stack of hundred-yuan bills and a mobile phone, there was also a delicate pistol, only the size of a palm. If a gun fan saw it, they would definitely recognize it at a glance. It is called Thunder in the Palm.
Browning pistol, next to the pistol, there is a magazine filled with yellow-orange-orange bullets.
Boss Yu didn't use his pistol, but took out his mobile phone. After turning it on, he saw that there was a signal and made a call.
"Brother, what do you need to call?"
Lao Ba's somewhat deep voice came from the mobile phone.
"We will start at eight o'clock the day after tomorrow. Ask Xiaosi to come home at noon the day after tomorrow and bring the detonators and explosives. In addition, let Xiaoqi prepare the car and meet him at the Sanlitun gun tower in the village in the evening."
Yu Ku gave a series of instructions. If you turn on the light, you will find that his face, which originally seemed quite honest, has become a little twisted and ferocious.
"Brother, what's going on? Didn't we agree that we can wait until those archaeologists leave before we start working again?"
Lao Ba asked puzzledly on the phone. He just came out of Yu Ku's place this morning. Unexpectedly, he changed his mind this afternoon.
"We don't have time. Those people from the archaeological team should have discovered that the royal tomb is under the orchard. If the third brother hadn't stopped them today, they would have been let in. I can only drag them for three to five days. If it's too late,
I’m afraid it’s about to be exposed, have you forgotten what else is buried underneath?”
Boss Yu's voice was a bit eerie, which made the old man on the other side of the phone tremble. Of course he knew what was buried in that forest. When the five corpses were buried, it was the hole he dug with his own hands.
"Brother, if that doesn't work, let's evacuate now. The money we have earned over the years is enough to spend a lifetime abroad." Lao Ba couldn't help but feel a chill in his back as he thought of the guy who had turned into fruit tree fertilizer.
After hearing what Lao Ba said, Yu Ku became furious, with a trace of murderous intent in his eyes. He lowered his voice and cursed fiercely: "Fart, I have been planning here for seven or eight years. How could I give up? If Lao Liu hadn't made a mistake this time
After being discovered, the things have been taken out a long time ago. Damn it, it’s a good thing that the sixth child is dead, otherwise we would all have to get shot..."
Thinking of those people who were strangled to death by Yu Ju's own hands, Lao Ba no longer dared to offend Boss Yu, and quickly replied: "I understand, brother, just let it go. I will arrange the matter..."
"Well, if things change, don't make this call. The old rule is to send a telegram to the village and say there is an emergency in Henan..."
After Boss Yu gave an explanation, he hung up the phone, turned off the power of the phone, changed the card, put the phone back into the bag, took out a small notebook from under the stack of hundred-yuan bills, and opened it.
Take a look.
It turned out that there were seven or eight passports hidden under the money, not only Yu Ku's own, but also those of several of his subordinates. They were all kept with him in case something happened one day and they could escape abroad. But there were only a few of them.
The individual is no longer alive now.
Everyone should have understood after seeing this that Yu Ku's parents were actually from a family of tomb robbers in Luoyang, Henan. During the great changes that swept the country in the last century, the Yu family dug graves before liberation.
They were also shocked. In desperation, Yu’s father, who had just married, fled to Liujiazhuang with his wife.
The quiet life in Liujiazhuang made Yu's father forget his own origin. He had lived there for more than 20 years. However, after the reform and opening up, Yu's father missed his relatives at home, so he took his eldest son back to Henan to visit relatives. This time
Only then did I realize that the brothers in the family, who were originally very poor, had become rich.
When Yu's father inquired, it turned out that during the great changes more than 20 years ago, one of his cousins smuggled himself to Hong Kong. In the past few years, he also returned to his hometown to visit relatives, and encouraged his family to start up their old business again.
The cousin was specifically responsible for taking action in Hong Kong, and several ancient tombs were excavated, which greatly enriched the family's pockets.
Yu's father had lived a quiet life for decades and did not want to get involved anymore. At that time, he was about to take his son back to Liujiazhuang. However, Yu Ku, who had never spoken much and was a bit tired, actually refused to go back at all this time.
, I have to try something outside.
Unable to control his son, Yu's father had no choice but to return to Liujiazhuang alone, and Yu Ku was like a bird escaped from its cage, seeing a new world that he had never heard of.
Following his uncle, Yu Ku showed an understanding of tomb robbing that no one else could match. He learned things very quickly. He seemed to be born with knowledge about Feng Shui and Kanyu that were difficult for ordinary people to understand.
After my uncle robbed several ancient tombs, Yu Ku was able to search for tombs independently.
After about four or five years of this, Yu Ku relied on his unique talent for tomb robbing and the skills he had learned from Liujiazhuang's martial arts since he was a child. He pushed his cousin out of the position of head of the family and replaced him.
This tomb robbing gang is firmly in their grasp.
After Mr. Yu came to power, and at a time when the domestic economy was developing well, their tomb robbing gang became even more crazy. In the early 1990s, their footprints were spread all over Shaanxi, Henan, Hebei, Shandong, Xinjiang and other places, and a large number of precious tombs were stolen.
Cultural relics also flowed abroad from his hands.
No one would have thought that in Liujiazhuang, the boss of the Yu family, who was an old and wilted man whose eyes would straighten when he saw a young woman, would go to luxury hotels and ride in high-end cars, including Hong Kong and the United States.
Several times, I even took care of several college students, looking like a successful person.
Boss Yu, who was living a prosperous life outside, did not get carried away. He used Liujiazhuang as his own typhoon shelter. Every time he returned to Liujiazhuang, he wore tattered clothes and looked like a fool.
His unsatisfactory appearance actually deceived his parents and younger brother.
In the mid-1990s, when Mr. Yu returned home and had a drink with his father, he overheard his father mentioning the origin of Liujiazhuang. It turned out to be the place where the troops guarding the imperial tombs of the Tang Dynasty lived.
Later, it gradually evolved into the current Liujiazhuang.
There is an army guarding the tomb, which means that this place is where the imperial mausoleum is. Boss Yu couldn't help but think about it. In the next few days, he ran to the mountain col every day. With his experience in the past few years, he naturally recognized it.
That feng shui treasure land.
Father Yu was also from a family of tomb robbers. He had lived here for decades and had long seen where the imperial tomb was, but he did not want to disturb his current quiet life. When he discovered his son's behavior, he immediately understood what Yu Ku was doing.
What I have done over the years.
After discovering Yu Ju's motives, Yu's father severely reprimanded his son and told him that if he dared to steal the imperial mausoleum, he would kill his relatives and report him to the Public Security Bureau.
In fact, Father Yu just wanted to dispel Yu Ju's thoughts by saying this, but he never thought that Yu Ju had committed heinous crimes outside these years, and had many lives on his hands. As long as one of them was exposed, he would definitely be the victim of a gun.
end.
A cold-hearted person like Mr. Yu could not tolerate the slightest threat. After being warned twice by his father, he finally became murderous and found an opportunity to secretly poison his parents' food.
, and then he buried his parents in tears, pretending to be a filial son and a virtuous grandson.
For the sake of the imperial mausoleum in the mountain col, Boss Yu Anxin lurked in Liujiazhuang and looked for an opportunity to dig a hole in the place where Professor Meng was currently digging, but that was not where the imperial mausoleum was.
