death

Chapter 129 Those who enter the cave are all hard-working people

Because it just rained, there were drops of water on the grass leaves along the way. After walking for a while, our trouser legs all became wet, and the trouser legs stuck to our calves, which was extremely uncomfortable.

From time to time, I would bend down to pull down my trouser legs, and Nangong Xiong would taunt me in a low voice, "I can't take it anymore? Why don't you go back to sleep?"

I didn't talk to them, because Nangong Xiong, Zhang Rui and Tang Qing were walking fast ahead, they were constantly closing the distance with the group of people in front, they were supernatural and had a way to hide their figure, but I couldn't, He kept looking for cover around him, and he didn't dare to speak loudly. It would be bad if he caught the attention of those people.

After entering the mountain, they didn't go to the general's tomb, but followed a path to a valley to the west of the general's tomb.

We followed them on the mountain road for more than an hour, and they stopped on the mountain ridge near the ravine. Several people lit cigarettes and let the wind there while smoking, and a few people started digging on the mountain ridge. .

What can be dug here?
After a while, they pulled out a piece of linoleum from under the ground, and then pulled the linoleum aside. With their light, I found that there were several generators hidden under the linoleum, and Several huge oil drums.

Is this a black mine?

At this moment, the men who tore off the linoleum pulled out another line from the side of the generator, and they pulled the line all the way into the ravine.

After about 20 minutes, the generator on Shanlingzi 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 watching the generator on the mountain, and the others all went down the mountain with tools hidden under the linoleum.

Only then did I realize that under those linoleum sheets, there were many iron nets, shovels and other tools.

Zhang Rui whispered beside him: "There won't be a gold mine here, right?"

After those people went down to the ravine, they didn't use nets to sieve the sand in the ravine, but leaned to the east side of the ravine. I probed a few times and found that there was a hole there, and a group of them got into it. inside the hole.

After they all entered the cave, the four of us took a long detour to the vicinity of the cave.

When we arrived at the entrance of the cave, we found that there was a wire pulled here, directly from the Lingzi to the cave.

This cave is so deep that at first glance, there is no end in sight.

After discussing it, we are going to go into the cave to find out what happened.

The four of us got into the hole, and after walking tens of meters, we found that the hole started to turn. Zhang Rui whispered beside him: "This hole must not have been dug recently. Judging from the traces here, it should be some years old."

After walking inside for a while, we found that the passage began to become more orderly, and there were lampstands on the walls on both sides of the passage.

But those lamp stands were not lit with oil lamps, but light bulbs were hung, but there were not many light bulbs, only three or four, so the light in the entire passage was intermittent, and some places were still dark and scary.

After seeing those lampstands, Zhang Rui said directly: "This is an ancient tomb? Is this the tomb of General Xing Guo that Li Daoxie told us that no one found?"

But if those people are tomb robbers, what are those nets used for?

After walking inside for another 5 minutes, we heard movement in front of us, so we slowed down our pace.

After walking 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 entered the cave just now were in that cave.

They kept digging on the ground with electric picks, planed vigorously with hammers, and then used shovels to shovel the sand and stones from the ground to the iron grid for sieving.

After sifting out some soil, they picked out some broken stones by hand, and there were a few metal things left on the net, because it was too far away, and I couldn't see what it was.

At this time, Nangong Lian said in a low voice: "It's a bronze arrowhead. It seems that this may be an ancient armory used to store arrows. It seems that they really came to rob the tomb."

At this time, a young man inside said: "I asked someone about it yesterday. Those who asked Lao Song to collect arrows gave him more than 1000 yuan per catty. When he received it from us, it was only more than 300 yuan. Song Ke really knows how to make money!"

Another person said: "These tools and this cave were all discovered by Lao Song. He is a big boss. If he doesn't make money, you make it. Here we are, how much money can everyone make every day?" One hundred yuan, should be enough."

Everyone smiled and said yes.

At this time, someone said: "The people from the investigation team today, what if they find our cave? It's illegal for us to do these things."

Another person said: "What are you afraid of? We are working for the uncles and nephews of the old Song family. If we want to arrest them, we will also arrest them. Let's just say that we don't know what these things are. As long as we don't steal the things here , just do our job honestly, it will definitely be fine, besides, isn’t there someone in the old Song’s house, if something goes wrong, it can be settled with a little money.”

The people inside were talking in a few words, but the work in their hands did not stop. After a while, I saw that they had already filled half a basket of arrows in the nearby basket.

Tang Qing asked in a low voice if he wanted to stop them, and Zhang Rui said, "Wait a minute, listen to what they will talk about later, maybe there will be useful clues for us."

After more than ten minutes, one of the youngest laborers inside asked an elderly man: "Master Liu, you are the yin and yang of our village. You said that more than a dozen people died in our mountain, do you agree?" It will have something to do with digging other people's tombs. I heard from Song Miaozheng that after the cave has been dug, we will open the door of the main cave. It is the place where the general is buried. There are many treasures in it. Take one and 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 offended the souls of the generals here, so they will naturally vent their anger on the people in our village."

The young man asked again: "But we have been digging in this mountain for more than two years, and we don't know how many baskets of arrowheads have been sold. None of us, including our family, had any accidents. The general's Why don't the dead souls take revenge on us directly?"

Liu Ye said: "It's not that we don't report, it's just that the time has not come!"

The young man asked: "Master Liu, if the general really wants to take revenge on us, why are you doing it here?"

Sixth Master threw the net aside, took out a cigarette, lit it and took a puff, saying: "People die for money, why else, my son is admitted to university this year, tuition fees 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 married a wife!"

"Ugh!"

Said Liu Ye sighed.

At this time, another middle-aged man suddenly said: "Master Liu, since you are sure that the ghost of the general here will take revenge on us, why should we dig arrowheads here? Let's go directly to the door of the master's tomb. Let’s open it, each of us will take a treasure and leave it to our family members, then we will have all kinds of money, even if we die, we don’t have to worry about our family members.”

Hearing what the middle-aged man said, the others stopped what they were doing and agreed.

Liu Ye was silent for a while and didn't say 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 proposed to go to the master's tomb continued: "Master Liu, why are you scared?"

Master Liu smiled, cursed and said, "When did I ever persuade you, but Song Miaozheng never opened the door of the main tomb. I heard that the big boss behind him who has been receiving arrows has specially ordered that if the meeting is held in advance, many people will die." People, it takes three years to open, as for what is three years, I don’t know, but it’s definitely not full now.”

"If you are not afraid of death, let's open the door of the Lord's tomb."

When Liu Ye said this, the others immediately fell silent, as everyone was afraid of death.

On my side, I was slightly stunned, listening to what the sixth master said, behind them were uncle and nephew Song Miaozheng and Song Yihe, and there was someone behind the nephew and uncle, and that person was definitely not simple.

Maybe he is still a monk.

But if he was a monk, he definitely didn't collect those bronze arrowheads to make money, maybe there was some other use for them.

Thinking of this, I carefully searched for those arrows, but I didn't find anything special about those arrows.

I asked the other three people if they noticed anything special about those arrows.

Nangong Xiong said: "Except for a little more yin, there is nothing special about it."

This is a cemetery, and it is normal for the funeral objects to be contaminated with some Yin Qi.

At this time, the middle-aged man who proposed to go to the main tomb said again: "If we dig this arrowhead, we will be retaliated against, and we will die sooner or later. Why don't we just give it a go? It's a lot to earn a few hundred yuan a day, but You also know that I have a son who does not live up to expectations, because I fought with someone and beat the other child into a vegetative state, the money I earned is not enough to pay for it!"

"I don't want to work hard for others in my next life. I want to be a big ticket, pay all the money to others, and then live a few days of my own. Of course, if I die here today, I will die with nothing. Regrettably, I have had enough of this kind of life of being pressed for debts by others!"

The sixth master shook his head and said: "You have had enough, but I haven't. I want to live two more years, to spend more time with my son and my wife. If I can hold my grandson before I die, then my whole life will be worthless." Just earned it!"

At this moment, all the lights in the cave suddenly went dark.

In an instant, the cave became completely invisible.

Then a gust of wind blew out from the hole, and I couldn't help getting dick bumps all over my body.

The Sixth Master and his group had a commotion at first, and then turned on the lighting equipment they had brought into the cave.

Then I heard Liu Ye say: "The wind is blowing, hurry up, something will happen!"

It seems that the sixth master, as the yin and yang of the village, is really capable, and he can even tell that it is yin and yang.

Just as the sixth master said, something is really going to happen here!
