Liu Shiba was shocked when he heard this. He quickly raised his head and looked around. He saw Weidu Park to the west a few miles away from the tunnel. There was a hill hundreds of meters high facing away from here.
Turning around to the east is the ruins of Xia Houyuan's cemetery, which is also on extremely high ground.
One west and one east?
Liu Shiba tried his best to recall some of the weird knowledge that his grandfather instilled in him when he was a child. Then his expression changed and he said to himself:
"Is it the pattern of two dragons holding beads? Is this a good omen?"
Upon hearing this, Cao Xiong nodded secretly and chuckled:
"Look carefully, the two dragons holding the beads are in the north-south direction. If the west-east feng shui is broken, it will not be the case, but it will be a double evil situation. Two ghosts will lead to evil, one is good and the other is bad."
Hearing this, Liu Shiba broke into cold sweat.
"The tomb hasn't been opened yet, should everything be fine?"
Liu Shiba asked nervously.
"No, the tomb has been broken. Look at the bluestones in the water in the culvert. They were dragon-suppressing stones in ancient times. Now they have been completely dug into two sections. The auspicious omen has been broken..."
Cao Xiong looked gloomy and said softly.
"So, what happens?"
Liu Shiba asked solemnly.
"People will die, so we have to leave here to avoid getting involved.
More importantly, I know little about Feng Shui, old man, and I can only take a rough look at it. But I did some calculations on my fingers, did you see those people in suits surrounding the culvert?"
Cao Xiong pointed casually.
"I saw it. It's said to be the director and several leaders of the Cultural Relics Administration Bureau, as well as several archaeological staff."
Liu Shiba raised his head and said.
"As long as they go down to the tomb, those archaeological workers will all die and no one will be able to escape.
There are also a few migrant workers over there. They will definitely be asked to go down first to clear the mud and open the tomb. It is also dangerous for the few who are ahead.
Because there is a faint air of death on the faces of the dozen of them, especially the Yintang of a few migrant workers, who are so black that they are probably the first to die."
Cao Xiong's explanation frightened Liu Shiba.
Turning his head, Liu Shiba looked at the dozen migrant workers and construction workers gathered around the culvert tunnel to watch the excitement. They suddenly didn't know that bad luck was coming, and they were still smiling happily because of the unexpected extra money.
For discovering and protecting ancient tombs, the Cultural Relics Administration Bureau will give them some small bonuses, estimated at 10,000 to 8,000 yuan.
At that time, each of these people who have left their hometowns to work will be able to share a few hundred dollars, and then their children’s tuition will be covered for one semester.
The thinking of rural people is very honest and simple. They have never thought about whether there is any danger in the cemetery. Nor have they ever thought that any thing inside may be worth a fortune?
And those priceless things will still be in domestic museums when the time comes, which is a huge question mark.
This kind of thing happens all the time, and there is a saying that is right, archaeologists are legal tomb robbers.
Those of average value are handed over to the country, while those of great value are hidden secretly and transferred to foreign auction houses through secret channels to make huge profits.
And some uninformed people are still cheering for these legal tomb robbers and cheering for their major discoveries. How sad is this?
Liu Shiba doesn't believe that these are all fake. Otherwise, what is Zhou Shida, the boss of Dingfeng Jewelry and Antiques Company doing here?
According to the rules, he is not qualified to come in. Who brought him in?
It must be those guys from the sanctimonious Cultural Relics Administration Bureau. The most likely leader is the white-haired old guy with a big belly and a hypocritical and kind face.
"Old Cao, is it okay as long as you don't go down into the culvert? Is it okay if we just watch the excitement from the side?"
Liu Shiba asked softly.
"I can't say for sure, but as long as I don't go down, my life won't be in danger."
Cao Xiong frowned and looked around again.
When Liu Shiba heard this, he nodded secretly. In fact, he felt a trace of compassion in his heart.
We usually work together, the migrant workers, the construction workers, and the big contractor are all good people.
In his spare time, Liu Shiba often teased and cursed with them, and even called them brothers and drank from a big bowl.
They are all simple and honest people...
Liu Shiba didn't want to see such an innocent and kind person die...
Thinking of this, Liu Shiba made a decision, looked back at Cao Xiong, and then walked quickly towards the culvert.
"Captain Chen, Brother Chen."
Liu Shiba smiled and patted Chen Daer'er, the contractor who was watching the fun, on the shoulder.
The contractor's surname is Chen Fanqing. He is a simple and honest mountain man. He is 1.85 meters tall and has a burly build. He is a loyal and heroic man!
Chen Daer'er smiled when he heard this and turned around to look at Liu Shiba and said with a smile
"Eighteen brothers, why are you here? Do you think this is strange? An ancient tomb was dug out when digging a culvert. As a contractor, this is the first time I have encountered this.
The deputy director of the Cultural Relics Administration just said that he would ask my people to help clean up the silt and gravel on the outside and give him a bonus of 15,000 yuan.
I plan to let a few brothers who are struggling at home go there and earn some extra money."
Chen Daer'er had no scheming and said with a hearty smile.
Is he still happy for his few migrant workers?
What a simple and kind-hearted contractor...
Liu Shiba turned his eyes, looked vaguely at Zhou Shida who was staring at him from a distance, and whispered in Chen Fanqing's ear:
"Chen Da'er, please talk somewhere else."
Chen Fanqing was stunned when he heard this. Although he was big, he was not stupid, so he followed Liu Shiba not far from the culvert.
"Brother Chen, don't go down that culvert. People will die. Don't let your people earn money to buy their lives."
Liu Shiba said quickly and briefly.
"Why?"
Chen Fanqing asked stupidly.
According to Chen Fanqing's understanding, what kind of heavy machinery is not available on the construction site?
There are no high-rise buildings nearby, and the culvert is only tens of meters deep. How could someone die?
"I can't explain it to you specifically. Did you see the old man who came with me? He is a fortune teller and he also knows some Feng Shui.
That old man is my grandfather's friend and my elder. He will not lie to me.
The old man said that there is a great omen in this ancient tomb, and those who go down there will suffer bloody disasters. If they go in... they will die!"
Liu Shiba squinted his eyes and explained solemnly.
At this moment, there was a burst of cheers from the direction of the culvert, and a migrant worker shouted loudly:
"Team Chen, the water is dry, let's go down and clear out the silt?"
At the same time, something appeared out of nowhere on the construction site, and a strange wind blew up. Everyone present shivered at the same time, and the clouds in the sky dimmed.
"This wind is so cold and biting."
"You should wear more clothes today. Isn't it sunny? Why is it windy?"
"Is it going to rain and the sky is getting dark?"
"Eighteen brothers, I believe in you, brother."
Chen Fanqing's eyes flashed, he took a deep look at Liu Shiba, turned around and ran towards the culvert.
Liu Shiba sighed deeply. He originally thought it would take a lot of effort, but he didn't expect it to be so easy?
Looking back, I realized that Chen Fanqing was from the mountains. He was superstitious and worshiped ghosts and gods. It was reasonable to be able to explain to him.
