Chapter 13 was found
I don't know why, but I don't think there's much hope of finding it.
There are all potholes around here, big pits and small pits, there are a lot of them, it looks like the surface of the moon, which makes people very amazed, what is the situation?
"These people, they're really going to destroy this place. My grandfather dug through the snow and said, "I've really inquired." At that time, when that person accidentally slipped down the hill and fell to the ground, the silver dollar he picked up was clearly placed on the ground, and he saw it, which means that the silver dollar could not be buried in a deep place. How could it be that they had dug so many pits into these cliffs? If they did, they would have been found long ago, right?"
I walked over and helped my grandfather make the snow together: "But grandpa, what if that person is lying? Think about it, now only one person said that he had found the silver dollar, and the others could not find it, and if I didn't let others see it, I would deliberately lie and mislead these people so that they would all find the wrong place." ”
Grandpa thought for a moment and said, "It's also possible, we were trapped?"
I said, "When he found the silver dollar, but several people saw it, it must have been here." ”
"yes, but why can't anyone find it?, could it be that the man is all hidden?" said my grandfather with a frown.
I hurriedly said, "No way, he's been being watched at home all the time." ”
Because many people came to dig at that time, the first person to find out was seen by the village party secretary, who didn't let him dig it, and threatened her, saying that if he dared to dig, he would hold a criticism meeting. No matter how angry he was, he could only stay at home, regretting countless times that he shouldn't have let the people in the village know about it.
These silver dollars have been dug up by others, so let's say that this person is not lying, so where is it? Could it be that there is a blind spot, and the location that everyone has not noticed is actually easy to find?
I really regret it now, I knew that I should have inquired in my last life, where did I bury this silver dollar?
My grandfather suddenly stopped, looked back at me and said, "If you were a person with silver dollars, and for some reason you wanted to leave here, and then you couldn't take the money with you, where would you put the silver dollars?"
I thought for a while and said, "Of course, it is placed in a very private place, and it is not easy for the villagers to use it to build houses and farm land, and this is the most suitable place." "There's no good soil on the hillside, there's no harvest from farming, there's no way to build a house, and most people don't notice.
My grandfather told me that there used to be a few wealthy families here during the Republic of China, but the environment at that time was not good, so they ran away, and those people probably didn't expect that they wouldn't be able to come back, maybe they just thought they would hide for a while, and then they could come back. As a result, it was gone, and the silver dollar soon ceased to be the currency in circulation.
Grandpa said, "If he was going to hide something." It's definitely looking for someone who is in a hurry, and he will leave when he is buried. I thought I would come back soon, so I wouldn't bury it very deeply, after all, the action was too big to be discovered, so we didn't have to dig deeper, let's just think that we were the one who hid the silver dollar in the first place, and think about where we can put it, right?"
I nodded; We ponder. ”
The two of us began to think about how to dig, but after thinking for a long time, we had no clue, so we could only find the open space, start digging pits, dig out the snow, and then burn firewood to make the ground not so hard, and start digging. My grandfather even brought a little kerosene to make the fire a little bigger. We can dig while collecting the fire, and we can also keep warm.
The snow was falling heavier at this time, and the wind was blowing over my head and face, and I couldn't breathe anymore, and I was cold like a popsicle, which was really painful.
After a while, my grandfather stood up and hammered his back: "I've been looking for two hours, and I still haven't gained anything, so let's rest." I said, "Shall we give up and go home first?"
"No, I'm an anxious person, if you want to do it, you can do it well, don't leave regrets after doing it once, there must be results. After a while, I wanted to go down and look under a leeward hill, maybe I was afraid that I would be discovered, and I was hiding under the col?"
I didn't squeak, I sat on the side of the snowdrift to bake the fire, and when I looked up, I could see the snowflakes falling like cotton wool, and the dark canopy gave people a very terrifying feeling.
Grandpa suddenly stepped on the faint flame with one foot, and then grabbed my wrist: "It seems that someone is coming, don't make a sound, see if Yang Dabao is here with someone? ”
I was startled, and quickly squatted down, could it be Ouyang Sheng? This guy is really persistent, and he is willing to give up for money?
The two of us waited for a while, and then we saw a black shadow running over, and my grandfather and I looked at each other, and we were a little surprised, because this person's figure looked like a child at first glance, seven or eight years old at most, and he didn't come, but ran along the road down the hill to the front, sobbing and choking as he ran, and fell down several times, as if he was crying?
My grandfather said, "This seems to be the boy from our neighbor's house?"
"Ah, are you talking about the child of the Lao Lin family?" I was surprised.
The Lin family is very low-key, and their family is also an outsider and has been excluded. Otherwise, we wouldn't have moved very close to our home. Our house was built by my grandfather after he was kicked out of the Yang family, very far away from the village center, and there was only one Lin family around, and the attitude of our two families was very indifferent and rarely interacted.
They were not treated very well, otherwise they would not have been ordered to accept two educated youths to go home to feed them when the village committee was meeting, and they would not dare to speak. It is said that their family has five children, and in order to give birth to a son, they gave birth to too many daughters in the front, and all four daughters are married, and the couple has such a baby bump.
But we have rarely seen children, and legend has it that this child has a bit of a problem with his brain, and he can't go to the toilet to eat when he is seven or eight years old, but this is also the discussion of the villagers, and they rarely let the child out.
If it weren't for the fact that the cotton clothes this child was wearing were very special red, with a pig's head logo sewn on it, I wouldn't have known that this was the child of the Lin family.
In such a blizzard, their children ran over by themselves, which was really weird. Was it beaten by your parents?
I said to my grandfather, "What's the matter, what's going to happen to this kid, right?"
Grandpa snorted: "You wait here for me for a while, and I'll get this child back." As he spoke, he walked up the hill with great agility.
Before I could call my grandfather, I would go too, and he disappeared into the snow.
Now I'm really nervous, but the wind and snow outside are so big, I must be lost if I chase it out, so I can only wait for my grandfather to come back. I squatted over there and thought about it, and began to dig holes in the direction of my grandfather, my grandfather and others had different methods, and everyone else dug along one place and dug a lot of big holes.
But Grandpa only dug a very shallow layer, just over half a foot deep, and then the deeper layer was not dug up.
I guess it's because some people say that it was found directly from the surface, so it shouldn't be hidden very deeply, so let's look for it on the surface.
At this time, something suddenly fell from my head, smashed into my neck, it didn't hurt much, but it really scared me to death, I covered my mouth and almost screamed, the first thought in my mind, could it be a monster!
Or did the bear come out looking for food? Am I going to be bitten to death and eat meat?
I quickly got up, looked up and saw that there was nothing, and there was another gra, and a stone had fallen from the hillside above. I breathed a sigh of relief, and a clod of dirt came down, which was really frightening.
I opened my hair, and suddenly it occurred to me, that is, was the terrain different then than it is now?
Where they thought it was safe back then, is it the same now?
After all, all these years have passed, and there have been torrential rains and earthquakes in between, maybe a lot has changed? I began to think, if the terrain had changed, where would the place where the silver dollar was buried before?
I looked up at the hillside, it seemed that there was a very heavy rainstorm when I was a child, and it seemed to have washed away a lot of dirt at that time, and there was a big hillside, but it was all washed away, so what was it like before it was washed away?
I stood up and walked forward, trying to remember.
The place we are digging now must have been the site of a hillside before, how could someone bury a silver dollar? I continued to walk forward, walked about fifty meters, estimated that it was almost there, and then began to dig the hole.
I followed the method given to me by my grandfather, the farmer took away the snow, burned the ground, and then dug a pit, and I didn't have much strength, and it didn't take long for my tired hands to tremble, and I was really tired.
I knew I would eat more in the evening, so I glared at my grandfather while digging a pit. Digging inadvertently, and then suddenly I heard a ding. My arms were numb, as if they had hit something.
When I looked down, something landed on top of my shovel, and it was picked up, flew out, and smashed into my face and into the snow. I snorted, covered my face with one hand, and grabbed the thing in a panic with the other.
Through the reflection of the snow, I could see clearly that it was indeed a silver dollar!
It was already very old, the color was jet black, and there were many things like dirt on the edges, but what could be seen clearly was the mark of Yuan Datou, which was the silver dollar that those people were looking for!
My heart was racing, and I didn't know how to react with all my excitement. Really found it!
