"Okay." I gave the flashlight to Brother Yu and asked him to shine it.
A thick layer of dead leaves fell on the ground. I pushed it aside with my feet, then raised the shovel high and smashed it down.
It wasn't freezing yet, so the Luoyang shovel went down quickly, and a lot of soil was brought up by the shovel head.
Without even looking at it with his hands, he kicked it up with his feet and said, "The dead soil is not deep enough. Keep going down."
I nodded and continued to connect the pole to nearly five meters.
Uncle Xue shined a flashlight on it. He pulled at the soil he brought up, frowned and said: "There is no white paste mud, no green paste mud and charcoal. Let's find another place to explore."
I started exploring the spot at 12:30 and continued until after 2 o'clock, but I really found nothing.
If Guizailing was the burial mound of a large tomb in the past, there would be some discoveries at so many exploration points, but nothing would be found.
I thought to myself that maybe the archeology organized by the county government in 2002 was right, there were no tombs.
"Hey Fengzi," Douyazai touched me at this time: "Does anyone want these stone men? Let's pick up two small ones and carry them away. It's not in vain."
"Don't talk nonsense. No one wants these things. Who are you going to sell them to?"
Uncle Xue said at this time: "How about we search separately first, in pairs, each holding a stick, to see if there are any undiscovered burglary holes nearby."
Everyone agreed that Dou Sprout and I would look for it along the north side.
After walking more than a hundred meters in the woods, Dou Sprout pointed ahead and suddenly said: "Look, is there a stone house there?"
After walking around behind the tree, I frowned and took a few glances.
This should be the Zaizai Temple that Xiao Tang told me about. I didn’t expect it to be so small.
I thought it was very big, but I never thought it was a small temple made of stone, more than one meter high. There was a broken clay incense burner in the temple. Behind the incense burner was a clay figure, which looked like it was enshrining some Taoist figure, because
I saw that there was still red cinnabar remaining on the face of the clay figure.
"Who is Fengzi? You see, he's still wearing a hat? Is it valuable?" Bean sprouts turned around and asked.
"It's not bad. It's worth a thousand yuan. If someone catches the eye, it might be sold for several thousand dollars. It may be a local Taoist statue from Wan Qing Tongzhi and Guangxu period. It's strange... How come such a Taoist statue is offered here.
"
I kept searching until after three o'clock in the morning, but except for the stone men everywhere on the ground, I didn't find anything of value, and I didn't see any robber holes.
There was no discouragement on Master Xue's face. He said: "As I expected, this place is certainly not that simple. There are also Yin Yang Cave and Zai Zai Cave in the north of Gui Zai Ling. Let's go there tomorrow to look for them.
Can you find anything?"
Because the old people in the countryside got up early, we went back for fear of being discovered. It was still dark the day after we got back, and Dou Sprout suddenly said with his legs crossed in pain, "Do you have any paper in Fengzi? It's so big that I can't hold it in anymore."
"Don't ask for it from me. I don't have it. Xiaoxuan, please tear it apart for her."
Just as Dou Sprout stretched out his hand, he suddenly farted.
"Eh...it's disgusting! Go!"
Xiaoxuan tore some toilet paper to him, and Dou Sprout took it away and ran away.
Nearly 40 minutes later, I finished washing my feet and lay down on the bed, but I couldn't see the bean sprouts coming back. I thought the bean sprouts had fallen into the toilet.
Xiaoxuan rolled her eyes at me and said, "Don't worry about him, who knows if he got drunk in the toilet."
Brother Yu coughed: "Ahem! Little girl, please be civilized and avoid using bad words. Be careful if the Buddha hears it and it will cause more karma."
Xiaoxuan covered her mouth and responded: "Brother Yu, you still say that I am a fake monk who smokes, drinks, eats meat and has girlfriends. Tell me, which one do you not do?"
"No, you guys should lie down first. I'll go see him. It's been almost an hour." I put on my clothes again and opened the door to find Dou Sprout.
The toilet was in an open space fifty meters outside the courtyard. There was no light, so I went in directly with a flashlight.
"Hey, Fengzi, don't shine in my face?"
When I entered the toilet, I saw Dou Sprout taking off his pants and squatting to defecate.
"You've been fucking for an hour? Didn't you just blow your ass off? Your face is sweating."
Dou Sprout took out toilet paper and said:
"Fuck, whoever did that? Go back quickly. I'll be fine soon."
