The weather was fine on Saturday, November 13, 2014

Yuxi Village, Fengxian Township, Jiangxi Province is beautiful, the scenery is pleasant, pear melon is abundant here, a kind of shape is like a pear, it tastes sweet and watery, and is very popular with people. But because it is far away from the city, it is very troublesome to transport, and the road is not good, there are potholes, and the village name has worked hard to transport the pear melon, but because of the injury, it has to be sold at a reduced price. The people in the village complained about this.

The old village chief smoked a cigarette roll at the entrance of the village, and few people smoked this kind of old dry tobacco rolled with tobacco leaves, and the smell of smoke was still very choking. The people in the village have long since switched to cigarette smoking, but the old village chief still takes the trouble to wipe the cigarette holder and roll tobacco leaves every day, and then take a few puffs. In his words, that's enough! The old village chief knocked the cigarette pot on the stone under his buttocks a few times, and a stream of sparks fell from the cigarette holder, and he looked at the road in and out of the village, because it had rained the other day, and the dirt road was already muddy. The old village chief turned his heart sideways, as if he had made a heavy decision, got up and walked to the village branch.

"Village Chief, have you really decided?" The village party secretary was a man in his thirties, of medium build, with a somewhat fat beer belly, which was no different from the rest of the village.

"Well, in order to be able to sell the pears and melons next summer at a good price, spend some money, it's worth it!" The old village chief sat on the stool of the village branch, took a few puffs of dry tobacco and said.

"It's okay, anyway, the national policy over the years, I can apply for it, and it is estimated that it can be approved." The village branch secretary sorted out the documents and files in the village, because it is too remote, so there is no computer, and all the affairs in the village need to be handwritten manually.

"Then I'll trouble you, Lao Zhang." The old village chief got up and knocked the cigarette holder in his hand on the table leg, knocking out all the soot inside, and then pinned it to his waist and walked out. As soon as I went out, I saw a young man with a hoe and a straw hat walking towards him, "Yo, Dazhu, where are you in the field?" ”

"Village chief, yes! Go and see what the wheat looks like in the field. Dazhu, who was wearing a straw hat, smiled at the old village chief and said.

"Well, how many months has your wife been? It's not a small month, isn't it? The old village chief smiled happily and pulled up the family with Dazhu.

"Yes, the last time I went to the city for a physical examination, I said it was more than six months. Hehe, I secretly asked the doctor, and the doctor said, this is a son! Dazhu couldn't close his mouth with a smile, his first child was a boy, which made him a little embarrassed in the village.

"Yes! Congratulations! The old village chief happily patted Da Zhu's shoulder and said. There are not many young people in the village, and most of them dislike the remoteness of the village and do not want to stay in the village. Today, there are only about two dozen young people left. Therefore, for the young people who stay in the village, the old village chief is particularly tolerant and caring. "Go home quickly, it's not convenient for your wife to be at home alone, go back and take care of it."

"Hey, then I'll go back first." Dazhu replied, carrying the hoe and gradually walking away.

The old village chief didn't leave until he couldn't see the back of the big pillar, and walked towards his house.

A month later, the secretary of the village branch excitedly found the old village chief, "The old village chief, the province has approved it, and someone from the province will come to build the road for us the day after tomorrow!" ”

"Really!" When the old village chief who was rolling tobacco leaves heard this, he didn't care about the tobacco leaves in his happy hand, threw them into the sieve, took the hand of the village branch secretary and dragged it out, "Go, go back to the village branch quickly, and use the radio to tell everyone the good news!" ”

"Good, good, good. This time, I also said that considering the situation in our village, some people will be recruited from our village when the road is built, and the salary will be settled every day! The secretary of the village branch took the hand of the old village chief and said excitedly.

"Good, good, good!" The old village chief was so happy that he didn't know what to say, so he could only say yes vigorously.

It was already very cold in December, but the village branch did not feel a trace of cold at this time, and twenty or thirty villagers crowded this originally deserted village branch. "Village chief, I'm very tough, help me get a name," a middle-aged village name said with a smile.

"Okay! Lao Zhang wrote it down! The old village chief said with a smile.

"Village chief, you see that I am also very powerful, so register me as well." Another village name, a little older, said.

"Come, Lao Zhang, take him down too!" The old village chief happily took a puff of the cigarette holder and said. The secretary of the village branch never stopped, and said without raising his head, "Don't worry, everyone, we will report to you if you have the strength and good health!" ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" The old village chief echoed the words of the village party secretary and said, "Report it!" ”

Everyone laughed, contributing to the village to build roads, and there was money to get, no one wanted to be left behind in this kind of good thing.

It was busy until the evening that the old village chief and the secretary of the village branch packed up their things and prepared to go home, "Let's go, go to my house and drink two cups!" The old village chief patted the shoulder of the village branch secretary and said.

"No, people from the province will come in two days. I'll go back and sort it out, and I'll report this roster tomorrow, so that I can rest assured. The secretary of the village branch took a thin notebook on the table and said.

"It's fine. Then I'll go back first. When the old village chief heard him say this, he couldn't pull people anymore, so he took a puff of the old dry cigarette and said.

The two parted at the gate of the village branch and walked in the direction of their homes in the setting sun.

On this day, the village was particularly lively, the only intersection into the village was crowded with people, the villagers all came out of their houses and gathered together, even Dazhu's wife, who was more than seven months pregnant, came out to join in the fun.

"It's not an exaggeration to say that today is a big event in our village. With this road, our village's pears and melons will definitely be sold at a good price next year! The old village chief stood on a mound and said happily, "The days of everyone will surely become more and more prosperous." The crowd applauded.

"Okay, I announce that the highway in Yuxi Village has officially started today!" The old village chief's voice rang out at the entrance of the village, and the villagers immediately let out a deafening cheer, and the women applauded happily. With this road, the income of every household in Yuxi Village will increase a lot, how can the villagers not be happy.

"Okay, okay, all the young and strong villagers will go to the construction site with me and start building the road. When the road is completed, it's not too late for you to celebrate. A middle-aged man in a white shirt stood next to the secretary of the village branch, holding a thin notebook of the village's roster of villagers who had signed up to build the road.

"Let's go!" The villagers with their tools followed the middle-aged man towards the outside of the village. The road construction in Yuxi Village began in full swing.

――――――――――――――――――I'm the dividing line――――――――――――――

"Dazhu, drink saliva!" A middle-aged man in his thirties sat on an old locust tree that had been raised because it had obstructed the construction of the road, handed the kettle in his hand to the young man younger than him and said, this young man is Zhang Dazhu from Yuxi Village.

Originally, the highway was to pass through an ancestral hall, but the ancestral hall was the ancestral hall of the village, and the villagers did not agree to demolish and rebuild it, so this section of the road had to be detoured. This section of the road is right at the foot of the mountain, and the geology is a bit hard, so it is naturally difficult to excavate manually.

Zhang Dazhu wiped the sweat on his face, took the kettle in the man's hand and poured it a few times, before he was satisfied with the lid of the kettle, "Thank you, Brother Tiger." ”

"Heh, thank you for something. All neighbors. The middle-aged man named Brother Tiger said indifferently, "Work hard, it's almost finished here." ”

Zhang Dazhu and Zhang Hu's families live very close, only separated by a wall. Usually, the two families are very close, and they will give each other a little bit of delicious food. Zhang Hu's family has a pair of children, the son is thirteen years old, and the daughter is six years old, so the Zhang Dazhu family, who is pregnant for the first time, naturally takes more care of it, and this relationship is even deeper. Naturally, the two got together on the construction site. The two didn't dare to rest much after drinking the water, and continued to dig with tools.

'Dang', the shovel in Zhang Dazhu's hand seemed to touch a hard object, making a metal-specific sound, he pressed hard, and found that there was no way to press down a bit, so he squatted down and took a closer look, "I seem to have dug a stone, it's very hard." Hopefully it's not too big. ”

"Stones? I'm here to help, too. Zhang Hu on the other side heard what Zhang Dazhu said, stopped what he was doing, and walked towards Zhang Dazhu. Come on, I'll try it and see how big it is. Let's dig it out together. ”

"Good!" Zhang Dazhu and Zhang Hu kept using the shovels in their hands to try to press down from both sides, but no matter where they dug they changed, they could hear the sound of the shovel hitting a hard object. Just as I was wondering, I heard the voices of other villagers, "I have a big rock here, and the shovel can't go down at all." Turn the excavator over and dig it."

"I have it on my side, too." Zhang Dazhu shouted at the overseer in the white shirt. The supervisor first went to the area that the villager was responsible for before, and then went to the area where Zhang Dazhu and Zhang Hu were in charge to take a look, took out the walkie-talkie, and transferred the excavator that was working in the distance.

Because of limited funds, the village hired only one excavator. The excavator rumbles down to dig out buckets of dirt, which is by no means human-powered. 'Whoa', the excavator dug down again, but unexpectedly heard the sound of something collapsing.

"There's a hole!" The onlookers shouted in surprise. The excavator went down with a claw, and dug a swarthy hole, and there was nothing to see inside, just a black patch.

"What's going on?" The overseer asked.

"I don't know, a hole suddenly appeared in the ground." The young man who drove the excavator was very young, probably only in his early twenties, surnamed Fang, from Fengxian City, and said helplessly as he looked at the overseer.

"I'll see." The overseer cautiously came to the mouth of the black hole, there was no light, and it was completely impossible to see what was inside. Scattered around was a pile of green bricks, and the overseer picked up one and looked at it, and said, "Let's get here today, let's go home first, and the salary will be settled for you on a daily basis." ”

At first, the villagers were a little unhappy when they heard that today's work was over, after all, it was not yet noon, and the working hours were not enough, so if they did not pay this work, it would not be in vain. Fortunately, the supervisor is very good, and as soon as he opens his mouth, he works for half a day, and his salary is settled on a daily basis. As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately went to pack their things and prepare to go home.

Only Zhang Dazhu was still squatting there, stretching his head and looking into the black hole. Seeing the overseer coming up, he hurriedly ran over and asked, "Brother Li, what is that black hole?" ”

Supervisor Li shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know, probably we dug up the ancient tomb." "I've seen the world out there, I've heard of something like this, and I know how to deal with it. Supervisor Li took out his mobile phone and dialed 110, "Hey, the police station." I'm Li Zhongliang, I dug a hole when I was building a kilometer for Yuxi Village, it looks like an ancient tomb, you ......" Supervisor Li walked farther and farther, and his voice gradually became inaudible, leaving Zhang Dazhu alone looking at the cave and pondering.

"Dazhu, let's go!" Zhang Hu packed up his things and stood not far away and shouted at Zhang Dazhu.

"It's coming!" Zhang Dazhu came back to his senses and looked deeply at the black hole again before turning to leave.

Shanghai, a bustling metropolis, and Yuxi, 108,000 miles away, are one heaven and one underground, where everywhere is full of drunken gold fans, and people are throwing their youth in drunken gold fans.

Early in the morning, in a villa in the No. 1 Ziyuan District in Songjiang District, a 16-year-old girl was wearing a maid costume that was popular in Japan, and her short ear-length hair wrapped her fair face. With that, the girl gently pushed open the door and walked in. The light in the room was very dim, but you could still see a high quilt on a European-style princess bed more than two meters wide, the girl walked to the window without hesitation, grabbed the remote control on the table next to the bed and pressed it, the thick curtains automatically opened to both sides, and the warm sunlight immediately broke in. The bulging quilt on the bed moved slightly, and the people inside seemed to have turned over and continued to sleep. The girl squatted helplessly on the side of the bed and said, "There seem to be three jars of chili sauce in the innermost part of the fourth drawer of the wardrobe on the left, I don't know whose it is?" ”

The quilt was suddenly lifted, revealing a sleepy-eyed little face inside, which was completely eleven after growing up, the facial features were about to open, the fair skin was covered by the quilt and slightly reddened, the long black hair was scattered on the white pillow at random, black and white, a pair of eyes slowly opened, hazy with ignorance.

"Huh? What time is it? Eleven got up and rubbed his eyes, and let out a big sigh before he asked dissatisfiedly.

"It's half past eight, if you don't get up, you'll be late again." The girl laughed at her.

"I see, help me prepare." Eleven was stunned in bed for a while, and finally got up with a dead heart, stood barefoot on the side of the bed, and whispered, "Also, don't take away my chili sauce." ”

The girl smiled and nodded yes, and prepared Eleven's clothes for the morning. Eleven walked towards the bathroom with a sigh of relief, and soon there was the sound of water running inside. The girl took her clothes and picked up her glasses and a cross necklace from the table in front of the bed and walked towards the bathroom. Eleven in the bathroom tied his hair haphazardly and was bowing his head to wash his face. Seeing this, the girl immediately handed her the towel at hand, Eleven wiped her face with her eyes closed, and then threw the towel on the table casually, the girl hurriedly put the glasses in her hand on her, and then carefully changed Eleven's clothes and put on a necklace, and then combed her hair carefully.

"Eleven, hurry up, or you'll be late again!" A hoarse voice came from downstairs, Zhu Chenyang was in the period of voice change, and his voice was no different from that of a male duck.

"Let's go. Breakfast was packed and I ate it on the way. Eleven waved her hand, and the girl immediately stopped what she was doing and followed Eleven downstairs.

Within two days, the news of the ancient tomb being dug up by building a road in Yuxi Village has been widely known, and even people from the city have come to check it. Zhang Dazhu was smoking a cigarette at home, his eyes flickering and looking at the yard, and he didn't say a word.

"Da Zhu, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Dazhu's wife Fang Yu put the lunch in her hand on the low table, and asked worriedly, in the past two days, Zhang Dazhu has either been in a daze or smoking hard, which makes her very worried.

Zhang Dazhu put down the cigarette butt in his hand and said impatiently, "Okay, don't worry about it." I didn't have anything. You eat your meal well. After speaking, he walked into the house, walked halfway, turned back to Fang Yu and said, "By the way, I'm going to drink with Brother Tiger tonight, so don't wait for me." After eating, go to bed. After saying that, he plunged into the house without looking back.

At night, Zhang Dazhu and Zhang Hu were drinking in the courtyard, and Zhang Hu's wife had already taken their children to bed, only their brothers and an incandescent lamp. Zhang Hu drank a glass of wine and asked uneasily, "Are you really going?" ”

"Why don't you go, I inquired, and people from the city said that this tomb is very large, it may be a big official, and there are many gold and silver jewelry in it, and any one or two pieces are enough for our family to spend for a few months. If we wait for the experts from the province to come, we won't be able to get anything. We're just going to get one or two, and they won't find out if they're missing two. Zhang Dazhu persuaded him. He also made a decision after making a big decision. The family is not rich, and it takes a lot of money to give birth to a son, and I don't want to make money, this is a good opportunity to fall from the sky, and I can't just let it slip away! Clenching the wine glass in their hands, Zhang Hu and Zhang Dazhu turned their hearts sideways, they did this vote!

Now that they have decided to do it, Zhang Dazhu and Zhang Hu are no longer cowering, the so-called picking the day is better than hitting the day, the two took advantage of the strength of the wine and took the shovel to sneak to the construction section where the ancient tomb was found. The remote countryside is full of trees and weeds. Taking advantage of the night, the two quickly avoided the police on duty, crossed the barricade, and slipped in.

"Go, go down!" Zhang Dazhu quickly found the hole dug by the excavator that day and whispered to Zhang Hu. The two of them carefully climbed in, and found that this was not a hole, the round roof was like a pot lid, buckled to the white soil, and there was no entrance and exit around it, so it was impossible to enter at all. Fortunately, the two of them were well prepared, each brought a shovel, and the two began to dig holes in the dark. I don't know how long it took, but I finally dug a thief hole that could be entered and exited by one person.

"I'll go down first." Zhang Dazhu saw that the thief hole had been dug well, and he put the shovel still in his hand, and went down to the hole in a good mood.

"Okay, be careful." Zhang Hu saw that Zhang Dazhu had entered the robbery cave, so he whispered. After Zhang Dazhu completely entered the thief cave, Zhang Hu carefully climbed in.

It was dark all around, Zhang Dazhu and Zhang Hu went down to the tomb and could hardly see anything, Zhang Dazhu took out a flashlight and turned it on, looking around. Coincidentally, the thief hole happened to hit the burial room. Several coffins lay quietly in the burial chamber, and under the light of the flashlight, they would glow black. Surrounded by some ceramic funerary goods. Zhang Dazhu doesn't understand the value of these things, and he doesn't plan to take ceramic things, that thing is not good to sell, not to mention, a bad one will be pitted, so gold and silver are the most cost-effective things. Zhang Dazhu roughly swept over the ceramics, and under the light of the flashlight, several beams of metallic luster were just seen by Zhang Dazhu.

Zhang Hu stood beside Zhang Dazhu, turned his back to the thief hole, touched his neck and asked Zhang Dazhu, "Do you feel a little cold?" ”

Zhang Dazhu swallowed his saliva and said, "It's okay." Let's get some gold and silver jewellery and get out of here. So saying, he walked to the funeral goods. Zhang Hu watched Zhang Dazhu walk forward and hurriedly followed. I was a little scared in my heart, and I unconsciously began to recite a prayer with words, "Guanyin Bodhisattva, you must bless us to go out safely." Also, this official master, Dazhu and I are just a little short of money, so we came to steal your things, we won't take too much, please forgive us! When the two walked past the coffin, Zhang Hu just stopped, and secretly raised his eyes to look at the coffin in the tomb. ”。 Zhang Dazhu looked back and saw that the coffin in the tomb, which had just been brand new, had rotted at some point, revealing the shriveled corpses inside. His face was dark, and he was even more terrifying in this dark night. Zhang Dazhu was frightened and unstable, and the flashlight in his hand fell to the ground.

"Dazhu, let's go!" Zhang Hu ran back as he spoke. Zhang Dazhu hurriedly picked up the flashlight on the ground, grabbed two gold objects and stuffed them into his pocket, didn't dare to stay, and ran out directly.

The two ran back to Zhang Hu's house in one go. As soon as Zhang Hu got home, he didn't say anything, turned on the incandescent lamp with a 'snap', moved a stool, sat under the incandescent lamp, took out a cigarette with palpitations, lit a fire, and handed Zhang Dazhu another one. Zhang Dazhu took the cigarette, lit the cigarette with the help of Zhang Hu's fire, and sat down. The two smoked in silence for a while, calmed down, and Zhang Hu spoke, "Dazhu, this matter of digging people's ancestral graves is enough once, and you can't do it anymore." ”

Zhang Dazhu didn't say much, just took a hard puff of his cigarette, then threw the cigarette butt on the ground to change the topic and said, "Don't worry about that, let's see what you brought back first?" ”

Zhang Dazhu took out two things from the tomb from his pocket. One is a golden jade lock plate, and the other is a silver jade ring carved with auspicious clouds wrapped in silver edges. Zhang Hu looked at the thing in Zhang Dazhu's hand and said, "I didn't make any effort to do anything about this thing, you can keep the gold and jade lock plate, and I will take this silver jade ring." As he spoke, he took the silver-veined jade ring in his hand.

"Good!" Zhang Dazhu didn't say anything, and stuffed the gold and jade cleats into his trouser pocket again, "Brother Hu, I'll go back to sleep." ”

"Okay." Zhang Hu extinguished the cigarette in his hand, and after Zhang Dazhu walked out of the yard, he didn't turn off the lights, and directly pushed the door open and entered the house.
