Chapter 129 Those who enter the cave are all hard-working people
Because it had just rained, there were water drops on the grass and leaves along the way. After a while, our trouser legs became wet and stuck to our calves, which was particularly uncomfortable.
From time to time, I would bend down to pull down my trouser legs, and Nangong Fanxong would sit next to me and taunt me in a low voice: "Is this unbearable? Why don't you go back to sleep?"
I didn't say anything because Nangong Fan, Zhang Rui and Tang Qing were walking very fast in front. They were constantly closing the distance with the group of people in front of them. They had great magical powers and could hide their figures, but I couldn't.
He also kept looking for cover around him and didn't dare to speak loudly, lest he attract the attention of those people.
After entering the mountain, they did not go to the General's Tomb Mountain, but followed a path to a ravine to the west of the General's Tomb Mountain.
We followed them on the mountain road for more than an hour before they stopped on the ridge near the ravine. Several people lit up cigarettes and relaxed there while smoking, while a few others started digging on the ridge.
.
What can be found here?
After a while, they pulled out a piece of linoleum cloth from the ground, and then pulled the linoleum aside. With their illuminated lights, I discovered that there were several generators hidden under the linoleum cloth, as well as
Several huge oil drums.
Is this a black mine?
At this time, a few people pulled away the linoleum cloth and pulled out a wire from the generator. They pulled the wire all the way into the ravine.
After about twenty minutes, the generator on the mountain ridge started, and the ravine suddenly became brighter.
There are light bulbs hanging on several big poplar trees in the ravine.
Of those people, only one person was left on the mountain ridge watching the generator, while the others all took the tools hidden under the linoleum and went down the mountain.
Only then did I discover that there were many iron nets, shovels and other tools under those linoleum sheets.
Zhang Rui whispered from the side: "There won't be a gold mine here, right?"
After those people went down to the ravine, they did not use a net to sift the sand in the ravine. Instead, they leaned to the east side of the ravine. I took a few peeks and found that there was a hole there, and the group of them got into it.
Inside the cave.
After they all entered the cave, the four of us took a long detour to reach the cave.
When we arrived at the entrance of the cave, we discovered that there was an electric wire pulled directly from the ridge into the cave.
This cave is so deep that you can't even see the end at first glance.
After discussing it, we are going to go into the cave to find out.
The four of us got into the hole. After walking a few dozen meters, we found that the hole started to turn. Zhang Rui whispered from the side: "This hole must not have been dug recently. Judging from the traces here, it must be several years old."
After walking inside for a while, we found that the passage began to become neater, and there were lampstands on the walls on both sides of the passage.
However, those lampstands were not lit with oil lamps, but with light bulbs hanging on them. However, there were not many light bulbs, only three or four, so the light in the entire passage was intermittent, and some places were still frighteningly dark.
After seeing those lampstands, Zhang Rui said directly: "This is an ancient tomb? Is this the tomb of General Xing that no one has found that Li Daoxie told us about?"
But if those people were tomb robbers, what were those nets for?
After walking inside for another five minutes, we heard movement ahead and slowed down.
After walking for more than ten steps, I found that the passage began to become wider, and there was a huge cave in front, and the people who had just entered the cave were in that cave.
They used electric picks to dig into the ground, dug hard with hammers, and then shoveled the sand and gravel from the ground to the iron mesh to sift it.
After sifting out some of the soil, they then used their hands to remove some of the gravel. There would be a few metal objects left on the net, but I couldn't see clearly what they were because they were too far away.
Nangong Fancong whispered at this time: "It's a bronze arrowhead. It seems that this may be an ancient armory used to store arrows. It seems that they are really here to rob the tomb."
At this time, a young man inside spoke: "I asked someone yesterday to find out that those who asked Lao Song to collect arrowheads gave him more than a thousand yuan per pound, while he only collected more than 300 yuan from us.
, Lao Song is really good at making money!"
Another person said: "These tools and this cave were discovered by Lao Song. He is the big boss. If he doesn't make money, you will make it. Here, how much can each of us earn every day?"
One hundred yuan, I should be satisfied."
Everyone smiled and said, yes.
At this time, someone else said: "What will the people from the investigation team do if they find our cave today? It is illegal for us to do these things."
Another person said: "What are you afraid of? We work for the uncle and nephew of the old Song family. If we want to arrest them, they will be arrested. We can just say that we don't know what these things are. As long as we don't embezzle the things here."
, Just do our work honestly and everything will be fine. Besides, isn’t there someone in the Lao Song family? If something goes wrong, we can settle it with just a little money."
The people inside were talking in a few words, but they did not stop working. After a while, I saw that they had already loaded half a basket of arrowheads into the basket next to them.
Tang Qing asked in a low voice if he should stop them, and Zhang Rui said: "Wait a minute and listen to what they will talk about later. Maybe there will be clues that will be useful to us."
After more than ten minutes, one of the youngest laborers inside asked an older man: "Master Liu, you are the yin and yang of our village. You said that more than ten people have died in our mountains. Do you think so?"
It may have something to do with us digging other people's tombs. I heard Song Miaozheng say that after digging this cave, go and open the door of the main cave inside. That is where the general is buried. There are many treasures in it. If
If you take one, you can eat it for a lifetime."
The man called Liu Ye was about the same age as Song Miaozheng. He was picking up arrows with a net. After throwing all the arrows on his net into the basket, he said to the young man: "Sure."
It has something to do with it. We have offended the spirit of the general here, so they will naturally take it out on the people in our village."
The young man asked again: "But we people have been digging in this mountain for more than two years, and we don't know how many baskets of arrowheads have been sold. We people, including our family members, don't even have an accident. The general's
Why don’t the dead souls take revenge on us directly?”
Master Liu said: "It's not that I won't retaliate, it's just that the time has not come yet!"
The young man asked: "Sixth Master, if the general really wants to take revenge on us, then why are you still doing it here?"
Mr. Liu threw the net aside, took out a cigarette, lit it and took a puff and said: "If people and money die, what else can you do? My son has been admitted to college this year, and tuition and living expenses are all expenses. Even if he dies,
I have also earned enough for his tuition and living expenses in the past few years! And he has a wife!"
"well!"
As he spoke, Mr. Liu sighed.
At this time, another middle-aged man suddenly said: "Sixth Master, since you are sure that the soul of the general here will take revenge on us, why should we dig arrows here? Let's go directly to the main tomb door."
Let’s open it, and each of us will leave a treasure to our family. Then we will have all the money, and even if we die, we won’t have to worry about our family.”
Hearing what the middle-aged man said, the others stopped what they were doing and agreed.
Liu Ye was silent for a while without saying a word. The others seemed to be waiting for Liu Ye to make up his mind. It seemed that Liu Ye was the leader among these people.
The middle-aged man who suggested going to the main tomb continued: "Sixth Master, what, are you scared?"
Master Liu smiled, swore a curse word and said: "I have never been afraid before, but Song Miaozheng has never opened the door to the main tomb. I heard that the big boss behind him who has been keeping the arrows away has specifically ordered that if the meeting is held in advance, many people will die.
People can only open it after three years. As for what three years is, I don’t know exactly, but it is definitely not full now.”
"If you are not afraid of death, we will open the door of the main tomb."
When Mr. Liu said this, the others immediately fell silent. Everyone was afraid of death.
On my side, I was slightly stunned. Listening to what the Sixth Master said, behind them were the uncles and nephews Song Miaozheng and Song Yihe. There was someone else behind the uncles and nephews, and that person was definitely not simple.
Maybe he is still a Buddhist monk.
But if he is a monk, he definitely does not collect those bronze arrowheads to make money. I am afraid it has some other purpose.
Thinking of this, I carefully examined the arrows and found nothing special about them.
I asked the other three people if they noticed anything special about those arrows.
Nangong Fancong said: "Apart from the heavier yin energy, there is nothing special about it."
This is a cemetery, and it is normal for the funerary objects to be contaminated with some yin energy.
At this time, the middle-aged man who proposed to go to the main tomb said again: "If we dig out these arrowheads, we will be retaliated against, and we will die sooner or later. It is better to give it a try. Earning a few hundred yuan a day is a lot, but
You also know that I have a son who doesn’t live up to expectations. Because he got into a fight and beat his child into a vegetative state, I don’t even earn enough to pay for it!”
"I don't want to work hard for others in my next life. I want to work for a big job, pay all the money to others, and then live a life of my own for a few days. Of course, if I die here today, I will die without anything."
Unfortunately, I have had enough of this kind of life being called upon by others!"
Mr. Liu shook his head and said: "You have lived enough, but I haven't lived enough. I want to live for two more years and spend more time with my son and my wife. If I can hold my grandson before I die, then I will spend the rest of my life
You’ve earned it!”
At this moment, all the lights in the cave suddenly dimmed.
The cave suddenly became invisible.
Then a dark wind blew out of the cave, giving me goosebumps all over my body.
Mr. Liu and his group first made a commotion, and then they all turned on the lighting equipment they had brought into the cave.
Then I heard Liu Ye say: "The wind is blowing, go away quickly, something is going to happen!"
It seems that the sixth master, as the yin and yang of the village, is really capable and can actually tell that it is the yin wind.
Just as the sixth master said, something is really going to happen here! (To be continued)
