Chapter Seventy-Two: The Secret of Concealment I
Li Hao seemed to be a little entangled, maybe there were some words that made him difficult to speak. I didn't rush it, to be honest, all I cared about at the moment was Yulan I met just now. I have a feeling that she must have some kind of connection with these things.
"Can you promise me not to tell anyone?" Li Hao suddenly asked.
"I can't promise not to tell anyone, but I won't tell anyone who doesn't matter." I'll be frank.
Li Hao hesitated a little, and after being silent for a while, he still told Li Lao what he had told him and said it-
Back then, Ouyang followed the people who handled the corpse and came to the area of Hongjia Village and got acquainted with Lao He's father and son. Lao He is loyal, diligent and diligent all his life. With two sons and a daughter under his knees, the youngest son He San, who has no long skills, and is unwilling to inherit his father's mantle, was lured by Ouyang and started to open the coffin to collect money.
The coffin on the cliff was rumored to have been buried by a large family more than 50 years ago, and they believed that the burial goods inside must be rich. After discussing with the two, they found two helpers, namely Agui and Li Sheng.
After the coffin was successful, Lao He, who was pushed by, found - "No, no, it will blaspheme!" Lao He persuaded hard.
"Dad, don't care, it's not just a broken coffin, it's been so many years!" He Sanquan didn't take it seriously, took out the guy's business, and prepared to do it.
Seeing that he couldn't persuade his son, Lao He knelt down and kowtowed vigorously to the coffin, and kept praying in his mouth: "Don't blame! No wonder ......"
Ouyang felt disappointed and asked He San to send Lao He back. He San had no choice but to forcibly send his old father back to the ferry. When he returned, the sky suddenly changed, and Ouyang and the three of them had already carried the coffin into the entrance of the ancient coffin.
"Why are you still stunned?" He San saw that several people were staring at the coffin with different expressions, and walked forward to take a look-after the coffin lid was opened, there was a person lying inside, a woman who seemed to be asleep!
"This ...... It can't be a living person! He San was surprised.
"If the living were alive, they would have suffocated to death!" Ouyang was cunning, he knew that something was wrong with this female corpse, so he didn't dare to rush forward, so he instigated: "It's all good goods here, if you want to get rich, it depends on who has the guts!" ”
He San glanced at Ouyang disdainfully: "I'll come!" ”
The corpse in the coffin, with hands intertwined on the abdomen, and an inkstone pressed on it. He San didn't know it, he just thought it was a rare thing, and he took it easily. The inkstone was just the size of a man's palm, but it was surprisingly heavy, He San didn't pick it up at once, and when he tried harder, he felt the palm of his hand itching.
"Let it go!" Li Sheng exclaimed.
When He San reacted, he found that there were countless dense insects pouring out of his palm, but there was no pain at all. Seeing that the insect was crawling up, Li Sheng immediately made a decision, took out the saber he was carrying and cut off He San's wrist. Blood gushed from the wound suddenly, and the hand that was corroded by the black worm fell into the coffin, leaving only bloody white bones in an instant.
Agui said in a trembling voice: "This coffin is not quite right! ”
"Why don't we touch it!" Li Sheng said.
"Don't say that she is a dead person, even if she is alive, she is just a woman, and I am afraid that she will not succeed!" Ouyang was not deterred by He San's accident, he took off his coat and put it on the corpse's head, pinched the corpse's sleeve with pliers, and then used a chisel to pull it out little by little. Li Sheng saw that he couldn't handle it alone, so he took the initiative to step forward to help. After a lot of effort, the two picked out a pair of white jade bracelets, a wrench, and a string of Buddhist beads on the corpse. Perhaps because he felt that the Buddha beads were worthless, Ouyang threw them away casually, and only put away the wrench and bracelet.
It was already raining heavily outside the cave, and the electric god was thundering, and the four of them had to stay in place and wait for the rain to stop, and at this moment a person came
When the man saw the four of them, he laughed and babbled, babbling things that he didn't understand. Ouyang and the others saw that this person was a fool, so they ignored it. The fool saw the uncovered coffin, and perhaps out of curiosity, he walked over.
"Don't ......" Ah Gui wanted to kindly remind, but Ouyang stopped him with a glare. The fool walked to the coffin, reached out and took out an oil-paper umbrella from it, and laughed. I don't know if it's "stupid people have stupid blessings", he touched the things in the coffin with his bare hands, and he was fine.
"Sprinkling...... ......" the fool shouted indistinctly, holding up the oil-paper umbrella and turning towards the hole.
Ouyang saw that the fool was holding an umbrella, not out of the hole, but into the hole, and was curious. He followed the fool in, and Li Sheng and Ah Gui had to help the injured He San to follow him. The light in the cave became darker and darker, Ouyang lit a torch, followed the fool around the coffins that had been discarded, and walked all the way, and actually walked into a natural cave. There was no light in the cave, but the fool walking in front was familiar with the road, which made Ouyang more and more curious - what was at the end of this cave?
As we went deeper into the cave, the light of the torches became weaker and weaker, and soon it was extinguished, and at this moment, the fool was gone!
Ouyang and Li Sheng fumbled in the dark, and soon found a wooden plank. After Li Sheng pushed the plank away, there was a dark light, revealing a round hole less than a meter long, and he took the lead to climb over it, and found that behind the hole was actually a cellar. The air in the cellar was thin and it was inconvenient to stay for a long time, so the four of them found a rope ladder and climbed out, and the location of the exit of the cellar was the backyard of the Hong Mansion.
The servants of the Hong Mansion heard the movement and found the four people. The servants recognized that one of the injured people was Lao He's son, so he informed the head of the house to take shelter from the rain.
"How did you get out of my cellar?" Mr. Hong asked.
Ouyang replied: "A few of us went up the mountain to worship our ancestors and sheltered from the rain in the cave. There was a guy who broke into the hole, and we were worried that something would happen to him, so we followed him all the way. Unexpectedly, I entered the cellar of your mansion by mistake, please forgive me! ”
"Oh! So that's what happened! Mr. Hong looked at He San and asked with doubts: "I heard Uncle Hua say that you are Lao He's son, how did you get this hand?" ”
"Alas, don't mention it!" Ouyang sighed and said: "We ran into a coyote, if it wasn't for Brother Li's timely rescue, Brother He would have given up his life!" ”
Ah Gui snorted coldly, turned his head and didn't bother to look at Ouyang's face. Mr. Hong didn't care, and asked Uncle Hua to arrange for the four of them to live first, and wait for the rain to stop before making plans. Uncle Hua took four people to the guest room, He San and Ouyang in one room, and Li Sheng and A Gui in the room. Because of the injury on his hand, He San drank the medicine given by Uncle Hua and fell asleep. Ouyang had no intention of sleeping peacefully, and went out to breathe, but saw a figure wandering around the house. He recognized the man as the fool of the day, and followed.
The fool entered the Hong family's study, and Ouyang heard the voice of Hong Lao coming from inside, so he didn't dare to approach - "Who told you to go there?" Mr. Hong scolded sharply, and suddenly he said in a somewhat frightened tone: "Where did this thing come from?" Yes? ”
The fool smirked blindly, did not answer his question, and walked out of the study happily. Ouyang was worried that Mr. Hong would find himself when he chased him out, and was about to leave, when his voice came from the study: "It's you!" You're here for me! Take me away! No, it's none of their business......"
