Due to the lack of equipment and technology for geological exploration, it is impossible to predict how much stone is buried underground.

Ye Zheng is very confident in his appearance, but he has a small concern about the stones underground. Although 100,000 yuan has been spent on this mountain and the government has done a proper job, the "mining rights" of this mountain have been obtained, but the cost of mining should not be underestimated.

Like that excavator, it costs 300 oceans for a clock, which is simply a money-burning machine, which is more expensive than the girls in heaven and earth.

Ye Zheng zhì is not a big money, not even a small money, if it weren't for a mother who is a bank president, he wouldn't be able to participate in this game at all. Now he doesn't have much money in his hands, and his bank card is only more than 10,000 yuan. The most important thing is that he has decided not to ask for money from his mother, and he will never give it anyway, so why waste his expression?

It was imperative that he dig up the stone before the money was spent, otherwise he would lose no panties left.

In the afternoon, the mountains were roasted as hot as stoves, the weeds by the stream drooped naturally, and a bamboo forest on the side of the mountain came from a noisy sound, wave after wave was very annoying. The excavators have worked so hard that a small pond has been dug out of the mountainside, which is large enough to hold water for fish.

After Ye Zheng had eaten in the town, he immediately rushed back to Crouching Tiger Mountain, sitting on the bluestone under a tree, and muttering a cigarette butt in his mouth. But the dream is very full, the reality is very skinny, he stared dryly for two hours, but the excavator scooped up all the yellow dirt and small stones, so that the yellow smoke nose under his feet gradually increased.

Patience, actually, he had, but he felt that thing should stay on a date at the time.

"Politics, should we change places?" The black bull looked worried, walked over and lowered his head and asked.

"Why?" Ye Zheng took a puff of his cigarette and glanced at him.

"I heard the old man say that Crouching Tiger Mountain is like a tiger, if there are any treasures, they are in the belly and butt of the tiger." The black bull sat down on a stone and pointed to the north of Crouching Tiger Mountain with the branch in his hand.

"! This is superstition, you are really a pig's head! Ye Zheng was already angry, and immediately accused him indignantly.

Regarding this statement, he didn't know whether to praise these old men for their rich imagination, or to accuse them of being so naïve and ridiculous at such an old age. It's like a fallacy in the past: why the important gold mines in China are in Dongshan and Nam Ho provinces is because they are located in the "chicken sac" on the map of China, which is where food is stored.

Is this just something to believe? According to this statement, this Huaxia is a rooster, and Japan is undoubtedly a worm, but more than 5,000 years have passed, why didn't Huaxia eat that worm?

The black bull obviously believed it, and he held a branch and persuaded again, "Zhengzhì, we still can't dig up a stone after digging for a long time, there must be a problem!" And don't you always tell me that if you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer in front of you? At noon, when the seventh grandfather came over, he said that this tiger's head can't be touched! ”

"You don't have to listen to everything! It's only been half a day now, and you say you want to give up, do you have a little patience to do things? Ye Zheng flicked the cigarette ash and gave him a fierce look.

In fact, he knew that Hei Niu believed what the village elder said, and thought that the stones of Crouching Tiger Mountain were hidden in his ass and stomach. It's just that Ye Zhengzhì chose Hutou's side, in fact, there is some basis, he has found a geology student for this matter, although that student is not necessarily reliable.

In addition, this digging is similar to the story of digging a well.

Once upon a time there was a man who wanted to dig a well to get water. On the first day, he dug more than half of the day and didn't see any water. But he didn't give up, he kept digging down, and he was convinced that one day he would see clear water. The next day he dug a little halfway and still didn't see any water. I still haven't given up, still firmly believing that I will dig sweet water. But on the third day, when the water had not yet been dug up, he began to get tired of digging the well, and dug it a few times. Suddenly I started to wonder if I would really dig water? The well digger began to wonder.

After a few more days, when the water was still not dug on the seventh day in a row, the well diggers completely lost their confidence. I didn't want to dig any longer, so I threw down my hoe and shovel and went home. He didn't think there could be water here. So he turned around and walked away without looking back.

He didn't think that as long as he dug a little deeper, there would be water, but he didn't insist, so he gave up!

……

Ye Zhengzhì has no reason to give up after digging for half a day, he can't be like the tragic character in the story of digging a well, he wants to be a good boy who perseveres. Even though it was a bit far from the quarry, he believed that as long as he persevered, God would never fail him.

In addition, the essay questions of the college entrance examination that year were all corrected by him, which fully shows that he has been awarded a first-class character certificate by God. Now it's not a gold mine, it's just digging some stones that are not very valuable, what a small thing?

Make up your mind to stick to it, Ye Zheng zhì starts the preaching mode!

"From today onwards, the stone is here, no matter what...... Where do you look? Didn't you hear me talking to you? Ye Zheng was very dissatisfied with the black bull ignoring his cunzii and dropped the cigarette butt.

A light breeze blew, and the black bull stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the excavator, the expression on his face frozen.

"Is it out of stone? Depend on! Look, this is character, what tiger head can't touch,! As far as Lao Tzu's character is concerned, a sneeze can blow a bunch of banknotes! Ye Zheng stood up from the ground with a pat on his buttocks, shouting proudly.

In fact, everyone understands the truth of the well-digging story, but things have always been easier said than done, and when you really get into it, you will face huge pressure and give people a huge psychological test. More than once when he was there, he wanted to change places, as evidenced by the cigarette butts on the floor.

It's just that it doesn't matter anymore, he dug up the stone mine in only half a day, and he is a lucky beautiful man.

"Look, look!" The black bull anxiously pulled on Ye Zhengzhì's clothes, his fingers still pointing over there.

After the lunch break, the excavator has been engaged in the work of moving mountains. Its heavy shovel didn't stop, digging out one side after another of dirt, the fresh dirt shining golden in the sun.

Then the shovel smashed into the dirt, dug up a piece of fresh dirt from the pit, and then dumped the dirt to the side, and the dirt poured down like sand, and dust rose everywhere. In this fluttering dust, several snow-white bones rolled down.

The white bones, hidden in the dirt, were overturned and fell on top of the dirt, making them stand out.

"Yes...... Bones! ”

The young man who was driving the excavator realized it later, and when he saw the human skull clearly on it, his face was shocked, and his hands and feet trembled. And with his shuddering, the excavator also stopped, but the big shovel looked funny like a frightened little snake.

Bones have always symbolized ominous things.

In the tranquility of the mountains, wildflowers bloom in green meadows, and a few butterflies dance among the flowers. A freshly dug pit endured the scorching sun, and it didn't take long for the fresh soil to evaporate and turn into a crust of mud, making the white bones mixed in the soil even more dazzling.

Ye Zheng came to the soil, observed the bones in the soil, and wanted to cry for a while. I thought I had dug up a stone mine, but where did I know that I was overjoyed, but I dug up something ominous - white bones. If this were the game world, his luck would have plummeted.

However, if you look closely, you will find that there is something strange about this corpse, and there is no trace of coffins and straw mats in this dirt, and it may be a homicide. But this was also a few decades ago, and there is no way to find out.

"Black Bull, find Tuye to deal with it!" Ye Zheng hesitated for a moment and decided to place the bones properly.

The tiger girl was originally herding cattle on the grassy slope below the mountain, and was squatting on the ground picking small flowers, but looking at the excitement here, the pair of little short legs ran up. When she heard that the bones had been dug up, she was not afraid at all, and went to the dirt pit to take a look, looking at the skull in the dirt and frowning her little brow.

"Brother Zhengzhì, it's too unlucky to dig up this kind of thing on the first day!" Tiger Girl let out a heavy sigh of relief, with a sorrow on her face that did not match her age.

"I don't believe this!" Ye Zheng was sitting on the rocks under the trees, counting the money.

"I don't believe it either!" The tiger girl nodded like a little adult, her big bright eyes cleverly glanced to the side, and suddenly her eyes narrowed in surprise, "Brother Zhengzhì, who are you giving this red envelope to?" 1000 pieces so much? ”

"For Tuye, he will clean up the bones in a while!" Ye Zheng sorted out the money and carefully stuffed it into the red envelope.

"My mother used to work in a restaurant, and she couldn't earn 1,000 yuan a month!" The tiger girl sat down on the stone next to him, holding her cheeks and saying deflatedly.

"Who did you listen to, the minimum wage is more than 1,000!" Ye Zheng was accustomed to her thinking jump, and glanced at her.

"My grandmother told me, it can't be fake! Now my dad doesn't have much money, he hasn't sent money home for months, and the last time he sent money was because my grandmother was sick. The tiger girl puffed out her cheeks, as if she had some troubles.

"Are you short of money?" Ye Zheng asked curiously.

"I don't lack it! Why do you ask? Hu Niu turned her head sideways and looked at Ye Zheng suspiciously.

“…… Looks like you shouldn't have to worry about your family yet! Ye Zheng put the red envelope containing the money back in his pocket and looked at her sideways.

"People's fathers sent money back, but my father didn't send it, and I was very faceless in front of them in the autumn flowers." The tiger girl picked up a stick and paddled it casually on the ground, as if she had some endless thoughts.

"......" Ye Zheng was speechless.

For the world of children, he has always thought that it is very innocent and has a bit of curiosity. It's just that this tiger girl is the only one, he has always felt a little incomprehensible, not that her ideas are ridiculous, but too rational.

"And I want to buy candy to eat, but grandma always says there is no money, hey!" The stick in the tiger girl's hand made a few more strokes on the ground to make a supplement.

Yes, this is the key, it's really a glutton!

After a while, a motorcycle stopped on the top of the mountain, and Tuye was picked up.

Tuye was in his 50s, short in stature, with dark skin and a black mole the size of a soybean growing on the corner of his right eye. He has been working on grave relocation for most of his life, probably because of this "unclean" profession, he is not enthusiastic with the people in the village, and slowly develops a stuffy oil bottle character, and usually likes to drink some alcohol at home.

When he came to the quarry, he still had some wine on him, and waved to the black bull and asked him to go to the town to buy one large and three small tanks.

"Four skeletons?" The pupils of the black bull's eyes are dilated.

"Yes!" Tuye spread out a piece of oiled paper and nodded very firmly.

"There are only three human skulls!" The black bull scratched his head and looked at the old man with some puzzlement.

"Don't give me nonsense, just get it!" Tuye was not polite to the black bull at all, glared at him fiercely, and then picked up a stick from the side and began to dig the soil. Although he was old and drank a little wine, he was quick with his hands and feet, and arranged his bones in the oilcloth in a sort.

This is actually a big project, and if the bones are to be recovered one by one, it will inevitably have to be exhumed.

……

Dusk is approaching, the sunset will dye the bamboo forest in the distance into a piece of gold, know that climb on the bamboo end of the fake sleep, the stream between the mountains murmuring. On a hillside, four beige jars sit beneath an ancient pine tree, with sandalwood curling and red candles burning.

After more than an hour of busyness, Tuye finally collected the four skeletons neatly and unmistakably.

Ye Zheng sent Tuye away, seeing that it was not early, he also decided to let everyone go home. Because the bones were dug up here, the excavator changed places, but the result was still nothing, which seemed to be really testing Ye Zhengzhì's patience.

"Tiger girl, when did you buy a necklace?" Ye Zheng was packing his things, but he turned his head sideways and found that there was an extra thing on the neck of the tiger girl.

"Where do I have the money to buy it! This is what I picked up, does it look good? The tiger girl fiddled with the necklace around her neck, and then asked proudly at Ye Zhengzhì.

"Where did you pick it up?" Ye Zheng frowned, and a very bad thought sprung up.

"There it is!" Tiger Niu pointed to the dirt pit over there, which was where the bones were.

"Bring it, don't play with it!" Ye Zheng had a straight face.

"I picked it up, why can't I play with it? You see, there's a beautiful sister here, and I can put my mother's picture in it, and I used to see my mother every day! Tiger Niu opened a small photo box on the necklace, and it turned out that there was a photo hidden inside.

"I'll buy you one next time, give me this one!" Ye Zheng asked for it calmly.

"Okay!" The tiger girl looked at Ye Zheng zhì and said seriously, and reluctantly handed it over to Ye Zhengzhì's palm.

After Ye Zheng took it, he looked at it and found that it was a copper necklace with a round photo box about three centimeters in diameter, and the surface of the photo box was a daisy, which seemed to be an ancient piece. Flipping through the lid, there was a picture of a young woman.

It's a pity that this photo is a little blurry, and I can only vaguely see that the woman has a melon seed face and black hair. Perhaps because of the digging from the ground, Ye Zheng felt that the woman in this photo was not aesthetically pleasing, but creepy.

However, he knew that the woman in the photo was not the owner of the bones, because the bones were men.

Tuye was very meticulous in his work, placing four jars under the pine tree and placing their relics on top of the jars. There was a child with a string of Buddhist beads on the top of the jar, a child with a peach pit pendant on the top of the jar, and a man's clothes on top of the large jar.

"What is this?" Ye Zheng was about to put the pendant back on the top of the can, but found that there was a cigarette case there, and he couldn't help but be curious.

The brand of cigarettes is called "Scattered Flowers", and this brand of cigarettes is not something that ordinary people can afford to smoke, and this person should not be a nearby villager. After picking it up, he opened the box and tried to smell the smoke inside, but found that the cigarette had dissolved into particles.

"Huh?"

He poured the cigarette particles on the ground, leaving a ring behind. Squatting down and picking up the ring, he spread out his palm, and the afterglow of the setting sun fell on the ring. It is a very ordinary-looking ring, made of copper metal, with no carved patterns, and six bone-shaped holes evenly distributed on the ring surface.

"It's so small, it's not as big as my little thumb!"

Ye Zheng thought in his heart, picked up the ring and put it on the little finger of his left hand, the ring had just been put into his finger, and a rich blue current flashed out of the ring, flowing from the finger to the part of his heart, and he felt a burst of numbness and suffocation.

"Brother Zhengzhì! Brother Zhengzhì! The tiger girl not far away turned her head and screamed in panic.

Ye Zheng fell to the ground and then rolled down the hill. It's just that at the moment of rolling, his brain is empty, and his eyes are obviously closed, but it seems to have another pair of eyes. He clearly saw the trees blocking in front of him, and clearly saw the expression of the tiger girl chasing after him in a panic, as well as the black bull and others who were running at high speed from the bamboo canopy.

Bang!

His stomach hit the trunk of the tree and his body stopped.

When Ye Zheng was pulled up by the black bull, his face was pale and goosebumps broke out all over his body. Because he saw an incredible scene, a trance appeared in front of his eyes: he seemed to be standing on top of a piece of glass, and about ten meters under his feet, a blue flame danced on a stone table, and the blue flame wrapped a finger of bones.

"This ...... What's going on, I haven't jerked off for a long time, how can I hallucinate? Ye Zheng immediately shouted in his heart.
