"Bang Bang Bang ......"

After a moment, the sound of messy footsteps passed by, and gradually faded away.

At this time, Peng Cheng still maintained the posture of holding a stick, hesitating whether to catch up.

"Ah Cheng, you're back." Suddenly, a young man seemed to be a little late, so he chased him out of an alley, and suddenly saw Peng Cheng, so he stopped and stretched out his hand to say hello.

"I'll come back and see." Peng Cheng said, and then introduced: "Wang Guan, this is my cousin Ninth Brother......

"He's my friend and drove me back." Pointing at Wang Guan, Peng Cheng was very confused and said, "Brother Jiu, what happened just now?" ”

"I don't know." Brother Jiu said in a daze: "I heard someone shouting to catch thieves, dig ancestral graves or something, so I ran here." But it's a little far away from home, and it's late. ”

"Just come along." Wang Guan proposed.

"It's fine." Peng Cheng nodded in agreement, after all, it was about the ancestral grave of the Peng family, and he couldn't sit idly by.

After locking the gate, the three of them chased after each other. After chasing for a few minutes, I went out of the mountain village, and even came to the vicinity of the neighboring village, only to see a group of people returning in a huff.

"How's it going, did the thief catch it?" Brother Jiu hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

"No, that kid is cunning, he actually jumped into the water and swam to the other side, and when we crossed the bridge to find it, the man had already run away."

"Damn it, next time I meet him, I'm going to have to break his legs."

"Put him in a pig cage, throw him into the river and drown, and see if he can swim!"

A group of people were filled with righteous indignation and kept cursing.

At the right time, Peng Cheng also walked over, frowned and asked, "Uncle, did that guy really dig our ancestral grave?" ”

"I don't know, did you see him digging?"

"I heard that. Didn't you dig it? I didn't see it, though. ”

"That's right. Who shouted that in the first place? ”

A group of people, you look at me, I look at you, but they can't find the source. Scratching his head and thinking for a moment. Suddenly, someone slapped his leg and shouted: "By the way, it seems that the voice is shouted by the eldest uncle who lives on the mountain." ”

"That's right, it's the uncle!"

"It's Taigong. I heard it very clearly......"

Middle-aged people call Uncle Da, young people call Taigong, anyway, they all refer to the same person. At that moment, a group of people returned to the village and walked towards the mountain. At the very least, it is necessary to find out whether their ancestral graves have really been dug up.

Soon after, the group climbed a long slope and came to the front of a house.

At this time, an old man with a wrinkled face and scattered teeth. He sat on a stone in front of the lawn, and when he saw everyone coming, he asked slowly, "How is it?" Catch the thief. ”

I know that the old man has some ears behind his ears. A middle-aged man roared loudly: "Uncle, the thief has run away." Did he really dig up our ancestral graves? ”

"That's right, I can see it very clearly, he dug up on ......it," the old man said slowly, pointing to a hill opposite and explaining: "See, it's there, where our great-grandfather is buried......"

"Hey, isn't that a wasteland?"

"Eh, the princess is dazzled, the hillside where the mountain passed is the grave of the great ancestor!"

"Hey, fortunately I didn't catch anyone, otherwise I would have really disabled someone, and it would have been a disaster."

After a long time, it was actually a misunderstanding, and everyone shook their heads, a little crying and laughing. But in the face of this elder, everyone didn't have much to say, so they had to sigh and disperse in twos and threes.

When he went back, Brother Jiu beckoned: "Ah Cheng, come to my house for dinner in the evening." ”

"No need, I'll be back in a minute." Peng Cheng politely refused.

Brother Jiu didn't care, waved his hand, and went down the mountain with everyone.

Just when Peng Cheng and Wang Guan were also about to go down to pack up their things and leave, the old man grabbed Wang Guan's hand and glared: "Why are you leaving, go and see how the tomb of your great-ancestor is doing." ”

"Uh......" Wang Guan was a little speechless.

At the right time, Peng Cheng explained beside him: "Taigong, there is no grave over there, the grave of the great ancestor is over there, and it has not been dug up!" ”

"Nonsense, I watched the man dig something up." The old man shook his head and reprimanded: "You two little rabbit cubs, you don't even care about your ancestors, what a sin!" ”

"Taigong, you really misunderstood." Peng Cheng couldn't laugh or cry.

The old man didn't listen, and pulled the two of them to the opposite hill, and asked them to fill in the grave.

The old man's strength was not great, and his hands were more like skin and bones, and the two young people could break free with a little force, but they were afraid of hurting the old man, so they didn't dare to move.

In desperation, Peng Cheng had no choice but to say: "Wang Guan, let's take a trip, let the old man understand it, and then don't bother." ”

"Okay."

It was only a few minutes away, and Wang Guan was not afraid of trouble, so he and Peng Cheng walked to the opposite hillside with Peng Cheng.

"Taigong, see it, there is no grave here!" Peng Cheng said, looking at the wasteland, there was not even a trace of it being dug up.

"Hey, there's really no ......" The old man was very surprised, and then sighed: "Old, really old, my eyesight is as big as before, if I were young, I could see even the mosquitoes a hundred meters away." ”

In the sound of chatter, the old man bent his back and slowly turned back and left.

Peng Cheng shook his head, turned around and said, "Wang Guan, let's go too." ”

"Wait......"

Wang Guan suddenly thought of something, and said strangely: "Peng Cheng, if that person didn't do anything wrong, why should he run, just stop and explain clearly?" ”

"In that case, there are people shouting and shouting and killing all around, and if it were you, it would probably be necessary to flee in the wilderness." Peng Cheng smiled, and didn't think there was anything wrong.

"That's true, but ......"

Wang Guan still felt that something was wrong, and his eyes carefully roamed the hillside. Suddenly, he saw a strange lump of mud in a weed patch on the mountain.

"Peng Cheng, look what it is." Wang Guan pointed with a finger and hurriedly walked up to inspect it.

"What?"

Peng Cheng glanced at it, and said casually: "It's just a ball of mud, is it necessary to make a fuss." ”

"See, this mud is so fresh, it looks like it has just been dug up." Wang Guan frowned and said, "However, the shape of this mud ball seems to be a little strange. It seems to have been seen somewhere. ”

"Wang Guan. You're kidding, mud is mud, and you can shovel it whatever you want. Where is there a saying that you haven't seen it. Peng Cheng smiled.

"I'm not laughing."

Wang Guan's expression was serious, his face was thoughtful, and his eyes kept wandering and searching. Under his feet, he kept pushing away the dense weeds on the ground, and suddenly saw a deep hole two meters away.

"Luoyang shovel!"

In an instant, Wang Guan had a flash of inspiration and blurted out.

"What shovel?" Peng Cheng was a little baffled.

Wang Guan didn't rush to answer, but picked a small stone and threw it into the hole, listened to the sound carefully, and then confirmed: "That's right, this is the probe hole, which was beaten out with a Luoyang shovel." ”

Peng Cheng listened. Hurriedly asked: "You mean, the Luoyang shovel used for tomb robbery?" ”

"Huh, you know that, too?" Wang Guan said in amazement.

"Nonsense. There is often news about this on TV. I've heard a little bit about it. Peng Cheng rolled his eyes and said, "Do I seem to be the kind of person who is lonely and unheard?" ”

"Know you're not." Wang Guan smiled: "Look for it, the person ran away just now." The tool is probably not taken away. ”

Peng Cheng nodded slightly, rummaging through the dense grass, and soon after, he made a discovery.

"Wang Guan, look!"

At this time, Peng Cheng pulled out a long artifact from a dense bush. The east and west heads are semi-cylindrical, and the handle is about ten meters long, which is connected by layers of rebar pipes.

"It's really a Luoyang shovel." Wang Guan looked at it for a moment, then said with a smile: "That guy just now must be a novice, maybe he just started doing this kind of thing." ”

"How do you know?" Peng Cheng wondered.

"Nonsense, throughout the ages, except for the archaeological team, who dares to dig people's graves openly." Wang Guan said with a smile: "Tomb robbery is the most disgraceful thing, and it is usually carried out secretly at night. It is estimated that the man is also timid and does not dare to act at night, what is it if he is not a novice? ”

"Such a cowardly rat dares to learn to rob tombs, I really don't know whether to live or die." Peng Cheng was disdainful.

"That man is cowardly, for sure, but what makes me most curious is that this hillside is also relatively secret, we are standing here, and the opposite hill should not be visible, how do you know that there are people robbing tombs here?"

Wang Guan looked up and said thoughtfully: "Unless when the probe rod was erected, he saw the upper end." Just when you see this end, someone must be digging a grave, and your grandfather seems to be very powerful. ”

"Uh......" Peng Cheng was surprised: "You mean, my grandfather was ...... back then"

"I mean, your grandfather must have seen other people's archaeological research." Wang Guan smiled, rummaged through the bushes again, and immediately found a backpack. It seems that this backpack is used to hold the Luoyang shovel after disassembly.

"Wang Guan, do you want to call the police?" Peng Cheng asked.

"What are you going to say if you call the police? Someone attempted to rob a tomb? ”

Wang Guan asked rhetorically, and slowly analyzed: "Besides, even if the police come, the most they can do is make a record, and then pretend to turn around, remind you to be careful, and finally leave." In that case, you can simply tell your uncles and brothers in the village about this and ask them to be vigilant, there is no need to do anything more. ”

"Yes."

Peng Cheng nodded slightly, and at the same time he was very curious: "By the way, how can you tell if there is an ancient tomb underground?" ”

"I heard that it was to look at the color, soil structure, and density of the mud, and then analyze it carefully."

Wang Guan frowned and said, "However, these need experienced veterans to identify. If you're a newbie, you'll have to try your luck. A shovel is driven into the stratum, and a cylinder of coffin wood chips, burial items and so on is brought out, and the existence of an ancient tomb can be determined. ”

"Oh, can you analyze it?" Peng Cheng said in a low voice.

"I don't have any experience in this area, so how can I analyze it." Wang Guan shook his head, looking at Peng Cheng with strange eyes: "Why are you asking this, is there any attempt ......?"

"No, absolutely not."

Peng Cheng vowed: "I am a good citizen with a clean net worth, and I have absolutely no bad intentions." ”
