Chapter 1: Murder and Arson (II)
Although those who do this business are bold, they also have the habit of paying attention to their surnames in their every move. For example, in the cemetery, you will not turn back suddenly, if there is movement behind you, you will turn around with a very sharp step, and the entire upper body above the hip bone will hardly shake, and the movement will be extremely fast.
As soon as the wild fox turned around, he found that You Fang had moved, his movements were very strange, his left leg was slightly bent, his right leg was swinging back, and his two hands were spread left and right, stretching forward like two flapping wings. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of this moment's posture, and the wild fox was shocked, and immediately understood that You Fang was going to attack him.
In the eyes of those who are familiar with martial arts, as soon as you look at You Fang's action of sinking down and retracting your legs, you can react that the opponent's next action is to kick straight with your feet. The wild fox stepped forward almost reflexively, raised his left foot and kicked the opponent's right foot, bent his left arm to protect his chest and throat, and stabbed the opponent's face with his right fist.
From turning around to attacking forward, the movements are like flowing water in one go, and the wild fox has quite a lot of fighting experience, and at the same time, he is accompanied by a half-broken shout: "You-"
But the wild fox was still half a beat slower after all, and after a punch was stabbed, You Fang pounced forward without dodging or dodging, and his right arm seemed to sink with both hands, and his figure actually rose into the air. The fox fell down and kicked his left foot into the air, and Yu Fang kicked out with his right foot as he took off, hitting his left forearm.
"The two hugs Dan mixed with energy, and took advantage of the strength to get up in the air." This is the body mantra of Xingyi Fist Swallow Gate, the heart of the wild fox sank suddenly, I never thought that Mr. Xiaoyou in front of him turned out to be a skilled Huijiazi, why didn't I see it before? After many years of fighting geese, he was pecked by geese, and this heel is really planted at home!
He didn't have time to sigh, You Fang kicked his left arm to protect his chest, and his footwork turned out to be the "collapse strength" in the boxing method. The fox's left arm smashed into his chest, and a powerful force came and shook him back a big step.
If it were an ordinary person, You Fang's kick could have broken his left arm and the ribs behind him! In combat, the best way to deal with a straight kick is to dodge sideways and launch a counterattack. But the wild fox didn't have time to turn sideways, and the right foot was collected in the air, and as the body moved forward, the left foot flew out condescendingly and kicked the door of the wild fox.
The wild fox could only grit his teeth, tense his whole body and bow slightly, fold his palms and open his arms upward, and take a step back to unload the opponent's strength. You Fang's second foot was kicking in the palm of the wild fox, and the power of the forward rush and the fall of the body were concentrated at this point, and there was a strong collision, and the wild fox shrank his arms and took two steps back.
The wild fox barely unloaded the power of the kick from the swimming side, and trying his best to control the center of gravity and body balance was the subconscious reaction of martial arts practitioners in the fight, he took a step back, and suddenly disappeared from the ground with one foot in the air, and the second half of the voice came from the ground: "--This eats inside and outside!" ”
Everything happened too fast, just between the lightning and flint, the wild fox didn't even have time to finish a sentence, and was kicked into the thief hole by the sudden attack of the wandering party. Although You Fang had been hesitating and struggling before, he was undetermined to make up his mind, but once he really made a move, he did his best without reservation, and did not give the wild fox a chance to breathe.
When thinking about things, you can be soft-hearted and think of all aspects, and once you have to do it, you can no longer be soft-hearted, and you can't hesitate at both ends. -- This is the truth that You Fang has understood since he was a child, and it is also the most rational and clear word for wandering the rivers and lakes.
The diameter of the cave is about 50 to 60 centimeters wide, and it slopes down at an angle of 60 degrees, allowing only one person to pass through, and you can stand by spreading your legs to support the wall of the cave. Listening to the sound, the wild fox did not fall straight to the bottom of the cave, but stopped in the middle of the thief hole. Everything calmed down again, and after You Fang landed on the ground, he listened vigilantly to the surrounding movements, and there was a heavy wheezing sound of a wild fox in the thief cave.
It took a few seconds for the wild fox to speak: "The surname is You, I really underestimate you!" But I don't understand, I treat you well, but what is the excuse, and which way are you? "The other party is guarding the entrance of the cave, it is useless to say anything else at the moment, it is important to find out where he came from first.
You Fang's voice had a hint of apology: "Master Fox, you really haven't offended me, and you're not bad to me." Immediately, his tone changed and he said sharply: "But you are not only a bandit who seeks money and kills, but also humiliates the ancestors and ancestors of this land, you are a sinner of my Chinese civilization, and a national annihilation who sells your ancestors for wealth!" These were the original words of Mr. Wu who angrily reprimanded people like Crazy Fox, and You Fang truthfully relayed them at this moment.
The wild fox was stunned for a moment, he just thought of various possibilities, such as You Fang was bribed by the enemy to kill him, or he wanted to swallow the treasures of the underground tomb alone, but he never expected You Fang to say such a righteous and awe-inspiring thing that even made him feel ridiculous. After a few more seconds, he said, "The surname is You, you are not the style of the police." ”
You Fang sighed: "I'm not from the public family, and I have nothing to do with the police." ”
Crazy Fox tried his best to soften his tone, this person's heart is really good, and he can still laugh at this time: "That's the same, if you are really a policeman, there will not be only one person who will do it." Either the stolen goods will be seized afterwards, or the net will be closed on the spot now. Where the hell did you come from? If you just want the things in this tomb, then well, it's all yours alone, just let me go today, and I won't be held accountable afterwards. ”
You Fang sighed again: "I'm not here to rob the tomb, I won't touch the things below!" To tell you the truth, am I considering whether I should call the police? ”
This sentence was even more unexpected, and the wild fox in the cave couldn't help but shout: "Call the police? You're an accomplice, think about how to explain it to the police, right? …… Brother, listen to the advice of the eldest brother, with your skills and skills, we will have opportunities to make money in the future, what are you for? ”
You Fang's tone was very low, with a hint of sadness in the night breeze: "Master Fox, do you know an old gentleman surnamed Wu?" ”
"There are many people with the surname Wu, which number are you talking about?" The mad fox was finally a little angry, and he was about to make this inexplicable kid go crazy.
You Fang said slowly: "I am in my sixties, my hair is half white, I wear glasses, I have a Chinese face, I have deep lines on my head, and there is a mole next to my right earlobe, and I am about the same height. …… You won't be unable to remember, the blue and white plum bottle in your hand is from him, right? ”
The wild fox's voice paused, and his tone suddenly became high-pitched and harsh, as if someone had pinched his neck: "It turned out to be for him!" What is your relationship with him? ”
"It's a friend, and it's an elder I respect. You just need to answer, how is Elder Wu now? ”
The wild fox gritted his teeth and said, "He's already gone, why did you come to me?" ”
You Fang's voice was a little fluctuating in the wind: "Master Fox, although I haven't been dealing with you for a long time, I know who you are, and I also know the details of Wu Lao, if he falls into your hands, will he be able to walk?" It's only to blame that your hands and feet are not clean, and the relics of Wu Lao left behind are for me to see. ”
The heart of the wild fox seems to sink deep into the ground along the thief hole. The old Wu that You Fang said did die in his hands, and he thought that the wild fox had to kill people at the beginning. The greedy can be bought with money, and the lustful can be seduced with lust. But there is a kind of person who is the most difficult to deal with, they only act for one kind of belief, and put their interests and life and death aside, Wu Pingdong is this kind of person.
Moreover, Wu Pingdong is not the same as a religious fanatic, he didn't even care about applause and reputation for the sake of faith, and finally left silently in an unknown way.
"The collector who claims to be surnamed Kong? It's really like it, if it weren't for Du Xiucai in the south who was suddenly planted, I wouldn't doubt his bottom line. After being exposed by me, he recognized it all, it seems that he is looking for death, and people are made by big bald heads...... What do you want? "The words have been said for this part, and the wild fox has also been released.
Du Luo is a well-known collector and cultural relics appraiser somewhere in the south, especially in the identification of bronzes. What the public does not know is that this Du Xiucai is also the leader of a well-defined and well-organized gang of cultural relics theft and smuggling, and at the peak of his career, the smuggling of ancient bronzes overseas through the hands of this gang accounted for more than one-third of the entire black market in China.
It is said that the police have found out that more than 90 million yuan of stolen money was found in several personal accounts of Du Xiucai, and the amount of money involved in the entire gang that has not yet been ascertained is still unclear, and it is estimated that it will be an astronomical amount. Du Xiucai has always been very cautious in doing things, but before he was arrested, Mr. Wu Pingdong had assumed the name of a black market collector surnamed Kong and dealt with him according to the rules of the rivers and lakes.
There is a deep sadness that hits you, and the heaviness is irresistible. Although he already knew what was going on, listening to the crazy fox say it himself, You Fang was still a little unbearable. He resisted the urge to shed tears and asked as calmly as possible, "Where is the old man's body?" Just tell me the place, and I can call the police after I seal the hole, and you may be able to save your life. ”
You Fang has already done it, and he has never let them go, and he either did it or called the police. And for the wild fox at this time, if You Fang really sealed the hole and called the police, at least the police might come before they suffocated to death, and there was still a glimmer of life in the hands of the police. This was the last chance given to him by the Yu Fang.
The wild fox laughed again in the ground, and his laughter was very low, like a male duck with a wounded throat: "You and that old thing are really all the way, thinking that the knife was on his neck, and he persuaded me to surrender." …… Well, you come here, I'll tell you where he's buried. ”
You Fang subconsciously took a step forward, and suddenly felt that the ground touched by the soles of his feet trembled slightly, as if with a hint of danger. It's just an illusion, an indescribable strange induction, not that the ground is really moving. He immediately flashed to the side, and at this moment there were several successive sounds of popping, snapping, snapping from the entrance of the cave.
It's gunshots, not like the crunch sound in the movies, like a compressed balloon bursting suddenly, and coming out of a hole in the ground is a little dull. The wild fox has a pistol hidden in his body, and he didn't have time to pull it out when he started it just now, and at this time, he took the opportunity to judge the approximate direction of the tour party, and he shot several times in a row, but unfortunately all of them were empty.
You Fang had already flashed to the shooting corner behind the thief hole, took off his sportswear, took out a lighter, lit it and threw it into the thief hole. His coat had been soaked in some kind of chemical, and it caught fire very violently with a pungent white smoke, which quickly turned into a ball of fire when ignited.
There was an exclamation mixed with a roar in the robbery cave, and the sound of the big bald head, it turned out that the big bald head felt that the movement above was not right and came out of the tomb, but he was blocked by the wild fox in the robbery hole.
With the firelight, You Fang's figure disappeared into the corn bushes, and then another voice came: "Boss, what's wrong?" "One of the men separated the corn bushes and ran as fast as he could, his movements were as light as a tanuki, and his running sound was very subtle.
This person, nicknamed "Cat Er", is responsible for watching the wind on the light truck next to the national highway and monitoring the movement in the distance at both ends of the road. Due to the distance and the wind and the cover of the corn field, You Fang and the wild fox did not alarm him when they started, until the wild fox shot Mao Er in the thief hole that he felt that something was wrong, and felt that something seemed to be something happened here, so he immediately rushed over.
There was no human figure around, there was a fire and white smoke in the thief hole, the cat instinctively felt that it was not good, at this time there was a fierce wind behind him, he jumped forward and pounced, trying to jump over the thief hole to avoid the sneak attack from behind.
You Fang's movements were faster than him, and he attacked from behind, and his hands stretched out and grabbed the soft underbelly on both sides of Mao Er. You Fang's hands are very ordinary, not particularly delicate, but the joints are not thick and there are no obvious traces of practice, but this grip is very strong, like an iron hook.
When practicing boxing, you can't clench your fists to the death, and your strength must penetrate your fingertips. I remember when I was a child, I often played a game with my third uncle's son and little cousin Mo Zhang: grab a pebble the size of a bowl and throw it, wait for the stone to fall, and then hold the five fingers into a claw volley and catch it, according to the little cousin, this is a practice of eagle claw gong.
Later, the third uncle, Mo Zhengxin, found out that Mo Zhang was playing this kind of game with You Fang, and beat his son up, telling You Fang that kung fu is not practiced so stupidly, and even if he can practice brute force in this way, he will definitely hurt his muscles and bones. The third uncle taught him a kind of practice method of standing on a pile to nourish qi and grasping cohesion, and only after the strength is practiced can he grasp the physical exercises, Mo Zhang also practiced like this, and there is a special medicinal soup to wash his hands, remove the old skin and calluses, and make his hands look the same as ordinary people.
The third uncle, Mo Zhengxin, used to go to the rivers and lakes to perform arts, kung fu is a family tradition, and almost all of You Fang's martial arts were later learned from his little cousin. According to the third uncle, there is nothing profound, just some crop handles.
Today, the power of this crop handle style is not small, as soon as the claws buckle the soft ribs, the second cat's waist and legs are weak, and he doesn't lift it up or jump out in one breath. Cat Er's reaction was also very fast, and he immediately twisted his body like a cramp, and hit his elbow behind him, like a long eye behind him, and the tip of his elbow was facing the right temple of the swimming side.
You Fang didn't dodge, his hands loosened and his body lowered, shrunk his head and shrugged his shoulders and continued to pounce forward, like a poisonous snake coming out of the grass. Cat Er's elbow missed, and Yufang hit him with a headbutt, causing him to lose his center of gravity and fall to the ground, his chest stuck on the edge of the hole.
Cat Er's whole body was sore, and he screamed, and then his feet were empty, and he was lifted upside down by his feet and neck, and his head rushed down and fell into the thief hole. The fireworks in the thief cave came to his face, and the two cats instinctively covered their eyes with their hands, and through a burning piece of clothing, they didn't know who they hit and rolled down to the depths of the ground together.
Throwing Mao Er into the thief hole, You Fang's movements did not hesitate or pause, and threw all the corn stalks, buds, ears of rice and sundries scattered around into the hole, and then lit two ** tied with zha medicine and threw them down - that was the leftover when the big bald head blew up the thief hole.
There was a muffled sound in the cave, the ground around it trembled slightly, and there was a loud bang from the depths of the ground, which was the sound of the pebble layer at the bottom of the cave collapsing, mixed with wails and screams, it was impossible to tell who made it, and the entrance of the cave was also half collapsed two feet from the ground.
Immediately after that, these sounds became inaudible, because You Fang brought a heavy object from the ridge of the field and buckled the entrance to the thief cave, as if separating the two worlds of yin and yang. It was a round sewer manhole cover, with a heavy, thick cast iron texture, which they had stolen on the way here, ready to be used to seal the thief's hole after they had done their job.
You Fang did not leave immediately, he picked up a military shovel next to the cave entrance, carefully shoveled up the nearby floating soil to fill in the bell above the manhole cover, and then carefully transplanted the corn stalks connected to the root soil. These were specially shoveled aside before they robbed the hole, and even the shape of the root soil was complete, and they could be put back together, and finally wiped the gaps between the soil with their toes, leaving almost no traces.
The wind seemed to be stronger all around, and the corn leaves rattled; The clouds in the sky seemed thicker, and the moon was left with a faint white spot; The night seemed to get darker, and there was always an undulating shadow of all kinds fluttering in front of you, even with your eyes closed—a vision in the dark.
The cornfield has been restored to its original state, as if the wild fox, the big bald head, the decadent child, the cat and others have never appeared, and nothing happened tonight! You Fang half-squatted in the field and held the military shovel on the ground, panting for breath, wanting to vomit but couldn't vomit anything.
He suddenly felt very cold, couldn't help shivering, his hands were trembling and he could barely hold the military shovel, only to find that his whole body was already sweating unconsciously, and at this moment his spirit was relaxed, and the sweat was blown by the wind, and he felt cold all over his body - the weather in early autumn should not be so cold.
The entrance of the cave is buried more than two feet deep, even when plowing the land in the spring, it is impossible to find it, even if the people below are not dead, it is impossible to come out, and the tomb buried in the depths of the ground for more than 600 years will once again disappear from people's sight. When the entrance of the cave was covered, it was said that it was impossible to hear the sound of the ground, but there was always a faint moan in Youfang's ears, and the mosquitoes were chirping softly.
This must be an illusion, the first time in his life to kill people and set fires, even if it is clean and beautiful, it is very calm from beginning to end, but the shock and impact in my heart are indescribable. He knew that the wild fox was not dead, at least not yet, and before the manhole cover was fastened, there was a faint voice of the wild fox in the half-collapsed hole: "The surname is You, I will not let you go if I turn into a ghost!" ”
You Fang replied as if he was talking to himself: "If there were really powerful ghosts in the world, you would have already broken into thousands of pieces!" ”
The curse of the wild fox is ridiculous, a bandit who made a fortune by robbing tombs, has disturbed countless undead sleeping underground in his life, if there is really a powerful ghost who can take revenge, he would have died long ago and has no place to be buried, is it still his turn to scare people?
The wild fox is still shouting in a dumb voice: "You will have retribution!" ”
You Fang snorted coldly: "Does the fox master also believe this?" ”
"Now that I believe, you must believe it too...... If there is no retribution in the world, how can I die at your hands? ......" This was the last sound you heard from the wild fox, and then he had already fastened the manhole cover. When everything calmed down, the sound of the wild fox always seemed to linger in my ears, like a mosquito that can't be driven away.
You Fang's body and heart were cold, and his mind was a little messy, he shook his head vigorously and stood up and left the cornfield, taking all the relics with him, except for the military shovel, as well as the jade plaque that fell to the ground in the fight and the wooden box containing the short sword. These two antiquities are not the owner's of the tomb nor the wild fox, they are left behind by tomb robbers who do not know the age, and they happened to be taken up by the big bald head and rediscovered.
The matter is not completely over here, You Fang must erase all traces, he came to a hidden open space next to National Highway 104, and drove a light truck with bottles and cans. This car is a second-hand car with a fake license plate of Mao Er, You Fang drove south, glanced back at the cornfield, and said silently in his heart: "Old Wu, please rest in peace, the child has avenged you!" ”
As for where Wu Lao was buried, since the wild fox didn't say it, I'm afraid it will always be a mystery, just like the burial place of the crazy fox and others, who will know except for Youfang?
Passing by a village, a military shovel was thrown into the ridges of the field, and the shovel was of good quality, and it would be picked up by nearby farmers and taken home as soon as it was dawn.
Ten kilometers away, You Fang stopped and threw a bunch of things into the garbage heap on the side of the road, which were the relics of Crazy Fox and others, including the clothes and various documents that were ready to be changed after the crime, and several people's wallets were left in addition to cash, and even credit cards were thrown away. Sprinkled with gasoline and lit it, and when the fireworks went off, he had already turned around and headed north.
After another 20 kilometers and passing a three-way intersection, you turned left and drove a short distance, and there was a toll booth at the bend ahead. He parked the car on the side of the road, carefully cleaned the traces in the cab, and abandoned the car and walked with a travel bag on his back. By this time, the eastern sky had already been clouded, and he was like a passerby who got up early to enter the city.
He walked back to the three-way junction and continued on another road. The sound of chickens and cows mooing in the distance, few pedestrians on the road, and it was the time when most people slept the deepest before dawn, and the light was still dim, dimly illuminating the road in the distance.
There is only the echo of footsteps in my ears, and I always feel very harsh when stepping on the asphalt road, You Fang has never found that the sound of his footsteps will sound so heavy, but there is a little vanity in the heaviness, both the sound of percussion and the echo of rustling, there is a very strange feeling.
There was a reason why You Fang was listening intently, since he left the cornfield, he always had the feeling of being followed, as if there was a pair of invisible eyes staring at him all the time. I looked in the rearview mirror many times while driving, and I was very sure that there were no other cars on the road at that time, but after getting out of the car and walking, this feeling not only did not disappear, but became stronger and stronger.
