A comprehensive overview of tombs: starting with the Yellow Weasel's Tomb

However, this time there was really no other way; hundreds of chickens in the entire village had disappeared.

However, since Yanzi's chickens were still there, anyone would definitely think of Bai Jing and his two companions.

When Bai Jing and the others came out of the house, they could still hear Xu Erhei talking.

“The old Party Secretary led people into the mountains yesterday. They had barely left when all the chickens in the village, except for theirs, were gone. Not even a feather was left.”

"We must get to the bottom of this today!"

As soon as Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang stepped out, they prepared to confront Xu Erhei.

"What are you yelling about so early in the morning?"

Bai Jing then returned to his room and took out a leather wonton.

Immediately afterwards, Bai Jing said, "Alright, stop arguing. This is the thing that stole the chicken."

Upon hearing Bai Jing's words, everyone's gaze involuntarily turned to the leather-wrapped wonton in Bai Jing's hand.

As the skin of the wonton was opened, everyone recognized what was inside.

"Yes!"

"It's Wong Tai Sin!"

Suddenly, the villagers who were about to cause trouble fell silent.

Seeing this, Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang also looked at the wontons in Bai Jing's hand.

Bai Jing said, "Last night when I got up to go to the toilet, I heard a noise. When I went to the chicken coop, I found this thing trying to catch a chicken, so I grabbed it. I was afraid it might come over, so I grabbed a goose from the goose pen and put it in the chicken coop."

Upon hearing this, the others seemed to understand something.

People here all know they're afraid of geese, but generally, even if villagers raise geese, they keep them separate from chickens.

Therefore, it makes sense that the chicken was caught while the goose was left unharmed.

I'm afraid that if Bai Jing hadn't gotten up in the middle of the night, even Yanzi's chickens would have been taken away.

However, the villagers, looking at the weasel in Bai Jing's hand, all said that this thing should not be caught, because it was a weasel spirit.

Then an old woman shouted, "This is Huang Daxian! You can't catch him! If you catch Huang Daxian, the whole village will be doomed!"

Chapter 4 Night Visit to Tuanshanzi

For a time, many people were clamoring for Bai Jing to release the weasel.

Seeing the bewildered expressions on Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi's faces, Xu Erhei assumed they were scared and became even more excited.

Seeing Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi's reactions, Xu Erhei looked at Bai Jing and said smugly, "Look, are you scared? If you're scared, give me the weasel, and I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative to exchange it for candy for everyone."

Upon hearing this, Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang immediately perked up.

The two of them pulled Xu Erhei aside, pointed at the weasel in Bai Jing's hand, and asked Xu Erhei, "Can it really be exchanged for candy?"

Seeing their expressions, Xu Erhei immediately straightened his neck and said, "Whoever is lying is a grandson!"

Upon hearing this, Hu Bayi and his companion's eyes lit up as they stared at the weasel in Bai Jing's hand.

As it turns out, although Xu Erhei was a rogue and scoundrel, he did not lie about this matter.

After breakfast, Bai Jing and the other two went to the supply and marketing cooperative with Yanzi. Sure enough, they actually managed to exchange a weasel for ten catties of fruit candy.

This sparked not only the passion of Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang.

Even Bai Jing became excited.

In fact, because the mountains where Ganggangyingzi is located are a hunting area, the villagers here do not lack meat, but they need to buy other things such as tea, rice, oil, and salt.

Moreover, ever since Bai Jing and the other two came to Ganggangyingzi, they haven't eaten any candy except for a few pieces they received when a family in the village got married once.

At that moment, at Yanzi's house, four people sat on the kang (a heated brick bed), looking at a large bag of fruit candies on the table. They all swallowed hard.

This was an era of scarcity; fruit candy was a luxury.

The group exchanged glances and then immediately reached for the bag together.

At this point, the group began stuffing the food into their pockets and then into their mouths.

Especially Fatty Wang, who stuffed seven or eight candies into his mouth in one go.

After a long while, the battle was over, and when I looked at the candy bag again, there was still about half a bag left.

Immediately, the group waved their hands, preparing to give the candy to the villagers.

After all, the village suffered a significant loss of chickens this time.

In addition, the villagers usually took good care of the three educated youths.

So, the next person divided the candy into small packets and delivered them to each household.

Moreover, they had previously learned from the supply and marketing cooperative that these yellow weevils could not only be exchanged for sugar, but also for other things.

Immediately after delivering the candy and returning to the house, the group prepared to catch a few more weasels.

The four of them sat on the kang (a heated brick bed), and Hu Bayi spoke first: "I heard that there's a big mound on Tuanshanzi nearby called the Yellow Weasel's Tomb, right?"

Upon hearing this, Fatty Wang quickly added, "Yes, yes, that's a place where weasels congregate. It's not far from our village. I've been working in the countryside for several months now, and I've never even been to Tuanshanzi."

Upon hearing this, Bai Jing quickly chimed in, "That's right! If you ask me, we should go up the mountain tonight, set a few traps, and catch a few weasels."

We have plenty of all the necessary household necessities, including firewood, rice, oil, and salt.

And so the three of them kept talking, one sentence after another.

At first, Yanzi disagreed.

But Fatty and Hu Bayi kept talking, and Bai Jing would chime in every now and then.

Then Hu Bayi looked at Yanzi affectionately and said, "All the men in our village have gone to work on the winter famine relief. Are we just supposed to stay in the village and do nothing?"

Although these weasels are small, their hides are worth a lot of meat. If we use the hides from your house to make wontons and put a few of these weasels on, wouldn't that be contributing to socialist construction? It's also supporting the revolutionary cause!

Hearing this, even Bai Jing felt that if he didn't do something, he would be letting down his rebirth.

Finally, Yanzi couldn't resist the three men's persuasion and agreed to go on a nighttime expedition to the Weasel's Grave.

It has to be said that Hu Bayi's eloquence is truly remarkable; he can even make the dead seem alive. To be honest, when it comes to conning people, Bai Jing and Fatty Wang combined are no match for Hu Bayi alone.

However, Bai Jing had already figured it out; Yanzi had been tempted for a long time, but she hadn't agreed before because she remembered what the old Party Secretary had told her before he left.

Now, under the influence of Bai Jing and the other two, Yanzi also felt that setting a few traps was no big deal.

In the end, I just agreed.

Immediately, the four of them ate dinner early that evening and then prepared their things for going up the mountain.

It was right after the snowstorm, and the forest was very quiet. With the fresh snow, even without a fire, one could vaguely see what was happening in the forest.

In addition, Bai Jing specifically instructed that torches be brought, but not to be lit for the time being.

And so, the group went up Tuanshanzi, preparing to head to the Weasel Grave.

Although it has stopped snowing, the wind is still blowing incessantly, especially in the mountains. When the wind blows, it sounds like ghosts wailing.

No one knows how the name "Huangpizi Tomb" came about.

However, Bai Jing and the others heard from Yanzi that in the early years, there were so many weasels here that they were countless. In addition, this place is a large mound of earth, like a grave, so over time, it got this name.

At this moment, the four of them took advantage of the darkness and did not light a fire, but simply went up the mountain in the dark.

However, Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi were clearly not as trained in martial arts as Bai Jing from a young age, and they were quite tired from walking on the snow-covered mountain road.

Although Hu Bayi was very tired, he was very determined and did not complain.

However, Fatty Wang couldn't do it.

Then the fat man asked Yanzi, "Yanzi, how much further?"

Having walked such a long way up the mountain, Yanzi was clearly a little tired.

Then the swallow stopped to rest for a moment, and then pointed to the woods ahead and said, "We'll be there once we pass this woods."

Upon hearing this, everyone decided to rest for a bit and then head straight to the destination.

Just as the group sat down to rest, Bai Jing sensed something and suddenly looked in one direction, shouting, "Who's there? Come out!"

Upon hearing Bai Jing's shout, Hu Bayi and the other two quickly stood up and nervously looked in the direction Bai Jing was looking.

After a while, seeing no movement, Bai Jing still kept his eyes fixed on the distant location.

Hu Bayi asked with some doubt, "Old Bai, are you sure you're not mistaken? There's no one here."

Bai Jing shook his head and said, "I'm absolutely sure I'm not mistaken."

What Hu Bayi didn't know was that Bai Jing's pupils had shrunk to their maximum size at that moment.

Chapter 5 Thrush

Meanwhile, the forest was not much different from the daytime forest for Bai Jing.

Bai Jing's eyes were trained from childhood using a secret method recorded in the "Tomb Records" combined with various medicinal liquids, making it absolutely impossible for him to be wrong.

At this moment, his eyes were somewhat similar to night vision, except that they weren't as clear. However, for Bai Jing in his current state, they were sufficient.
