Lao Wang has worked in the sulfuric acid plant for more than ten years, so it naturally has something to do with it. When he learned that the work would be done at night, he bought some work clothes that afternoon, and we all had to change into the work clothes of the sulfuric acid plant in the evening.
Lao Pi is still pulling animals to the zoo. In the afternoon, he brought me 50 rope ladders and a wheel cart.
The rope ladder is packed in a sack, and the wheel cart can be disassembled into three pieces. It is actually a tripod with a hand crank on it.
According to the depth of the Luoyang shovel that night, the hole dug by the thief must be vertically downward. People can climb down the rope ladder at that time, but it is very unsafe to climb the rope ladder when picking up the funerary objects.
I have heard the boss say it many times before that someone slipped and fell down from the robbery hole and died. There are many things like this. I am responsible for the safety of the team.
Xiaomi is responsible for outside ventilation, and everyone else, including me, has to dig with shovels, otherwise there is not enough time.
At around 10 o'clock that night, Lao Wang took a group of us into the factory.
It was dark all around, we hid in the brick house, and time passed by minute by second.
"Didi..." chimes the time at 12 o'clock.
"Xiaomi, is there something wrong?"
"Brother Feng, everything is normal."
"How's the rope ladder?"
Xiaoxuan bit the flashlight and said it was ready.
"Do it." I threw the bean sprouts to the whirlwind shovel, and the bean sprouts were thrown to Brother Yu.
"What's wrong with you?" I saw Lao Wang holding the cyclone shovel, and his hands kept shaking.
"I...what if we get caught? I will retire in a few years."
"What the hell." Douya kicked Lao Wang with a headlamp and said, "Don't let me lose my life. Damn it, I will bury you in a pit if you lose your life."
I decided on the location and asked everyone to start digging. All the excavated soil was pushed into the red brick house.
The frozen soil was more than one meter deep. At first, the speed was not fast, and it was difficult to remove the shovel. But after more than one meter, it was no longer frozen soil, and the speed became faster.
I always pay attention to the disturbance around me, and if there is any movement, I will wave and stop.
Shoveling, digging, and pulling up the soil, slowly, we can no longer be seen on the ground.
After going deep, we picked up the wheel and Xiaoxuan shook the handle to unload the soil frame. After we filled it, she quickly shook it up and dumped it out.
After digging around, I realized something.
I'm afraid that no matter how hard I work, I won't be able to reach the tomb passage tonight. The burial is too deep. At this rate, it will take at least two nights to sink fifteen meters in one night. If the tomb underneath collapses, it will be even more troublesome.
At about four o'clock in the middle of the night, I felt it was almost done, so I patted Bean Sprouts and motioned to climb the rope ladder.
After Bean Sprouts, Brother Yu went up, and I went up last.
After going up, I found a wooden stick, put it on the entrance of the thief's cave, then covered it with a raincloth, and finally dug a few shovels of soil to cover it with the raincloth.
"Pack up your things and call it a day. I'm going to work all night today and then go down."
"Old Wang," I pointed to the brick house and said, "You will be here during the day. You must watch carefully and no one can enter."
Lao Wang patted the dirt on his head and said, I understand.
Locking the wheel cart, rope ladder, and cyclone shovel into the brick building, we temporarily left the sulfuric acid plant.
I kept tossing and turning during the day and couldn't sleep.
This tomb is difficult. I am afraid that someone will discover the secret of the brick house during the day. Dou Sprout is sleeping soundly and is not worried at all.
I couldn't lie down anymore, so I went to the factory around 12 o'clock in the afternoon.
I didn't expect to meet Jiang Yuan at the entrance of the factory. She seemed to have been waiting for a while.
"Why don't you answer my phone call?"
I didn't expect her to come looking for her, so I lied and said I didn't see her.
"It's been a few days, when are we going to do it?"
"Next week, next Wednesday we'll start. I'll call you then."
Jiang Yuan looked at me suspiciously and said, "You don't want to kick me out, do you? Don't forget, I know everything about you, and who brought you here."
I smiled and said, "That's not possible, don't think too much about it."
"Then what are you doing here? You're still wearing factory uniforms," Jiang Yuan suddenly gritted his teeth and said: "I'm not stupid, don't try to fool me, you can do it without me, give me 1 million, and my boyfriend will be here next month
I’m going abroad.”
One million? This woman really dares to think about it.
What have you done? Asked for a million?
Now that she's showing off her cards, I don't want to hide it.
I still had a smile on my face, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll give you the money and you go to the hotel to get it."
Jiang Yuan's expression was stunned, "Really...give it to me?"
I said give it, we have cash, we will give you 500,000 first and then give you the rest in two days.
You go now. When you get to the hotel, ask for it from a girl named Xiaoxuan. The money is at her place.
Jiang Yuan's face lit up, "Thank you then. As long as you give me money, I won't say anything. Don't worry."
After watching her leaving figure for a while, I turned around and entered the factory.
It was lunch time, and if conditions were good enough, I would go out to eat. Most people were eating in the canteen. The workers were walking around with their rice bowls, and no one noticed me, a stranger.
I pretended to be taking a walk and walked to the brick house and coughed twice.
"Ahem!"
Lao Wang ran out immediately. He was relieved when he saw it was me.
"is that OK?"
"Don't worry," Lao Wang turned to look around and whispered, "I'm watching, no one is coming, let's continue working tonight."
I squatted on the ground and broke a branch casually, keeping a few meters away from Lao Wang.
"Okay, keep an eye on it. If anything happens, please feel free to contact me."
Knowing that no one had discovered the robber's cave, I put down half of my worries, had lunch outside, and went back around two o'clock in the afternoon.
"What's wrong, Xiaomi? Why are you sitting in the corridor?"
Seeing me going upstairs, Xiaomi stood up and whispered: "Feng...Brother Feng, I don't dare to go in. You go in and take a look."
I pushed the door open in confusion.
The situation inside the house is not good.
Jiang Yuan was slumped on the ground, her clothes were torn, her hair was a mess, half of her face was swollen, her eyes were swollen too, her nose and face were all swollen, and she was sobbing softly.
"How much does it cost? Tell me." Xiaoxuan grabbed Jiang Yuan's hair.
"It hurts...it hurts..."
Jiang Yuan shouted loudly that it hurt and said she didn't want it anymore, but I didn't dare to do it anymore.
Xiaoxuan had a cold face, slapped Jiang Yuan again, took out a fruit knife and pointed it at her and cursed: "I'm giving you face, aren't you? If you dare to ask me for one million, if you dare to come over and cut your face in two
Half."
"Get out."
Jiang had a round nose, a bruised face, and was so frightened that his face turned pale and he immediately rolled away and crawled away.
Xiaoxuan rubbed her temples and said to me: "Don't pay attention to this kind of wallflower in the future. If you fail to succeed, you will fail."
...
As night fell, a group of people quietly gathered at the red brick house again.
According to the plan, we can get into the tomb by going to the Robbery Cave tonight.
At around 3 o'clock in the morning, Brother Douyazaiyu and I were digging soil in the hole, when Xiaomi's voice suddenly came from the intercom:
"Brother Feng! Brother Feng! There is..."
The walkie-talkie made a buzzing sound. Maybe I was too deep in the pit and the signal was affected.
"Xiaomi? Xiaomi?" No one answered.
There was a burst of movement from above. I couldn't see what was going on in the pit, so I quickly raised my head and turned on my headlight to call Xiaoxuan.
Xiaoxuan was originally next to the wheelbarrow and I could see her at a glance, but I can't see her now.
My expression changed and I pushed Dou Sprout: "Come up quickly! Something happened!"
Dou Sprout hurriedly grabbed the rope ladder and was about to climb up. Suddenly, two flashlights shone down from the entrance of the cave, shaking me so hard that I couldn't open my eyes.
"Brother, there is really someone there!"
I moved the flashlight and saw clearly the situation on the pit.
Xiaoxuan was strangled by someone's neck and her mouth was covered. She was struggling desperately and whining. I didn't see Lao Wang, but I could clearly see the faces of several people.
It was a group of three tomb robbers, led by Brother Niu.
In addition to these three people, there was another woman who was staring at me angrily.
Ginger ball.
Then a voice came from the pit.
"Damn you! You bastards! I almost let me eat the empty pot! How dare you touch any of us!"
The guy called Brother Niu cut the rope ladder with scissors, and Dou Sprout yelled and cursed at the pit with all his strength.
"Tumb, Ma Dan, do it!"
"Buried!"
As soon as I finished speaking, a large amount of broken soil and gravel fell down on my head.
Jiang Yuan's eyes were better now, but her face was still swollen.
She lay down at the entrance of the pit and shined a flashlight on herself.
