Belle said, "Knowingly. ”

"Wait a while, if Zhu Qibin and they don't get out of the car, they will definitely be busy with their affairs, let's do it again."

At 9 o'clock, Grandpa Zhang's call came on time, "Wuyang, you drive in the direction we took just now, I'll wait for you in front." ”

When Grandpa Zhang arrived, Grandpa Zhang said, "A few of you will go forward from here, and we will drive at the foot of the mountain and wait for you." This direction is northeast, and after reading it, we will go northwest. Due north is the Pingchuan River, and there can be no ancient tombs. ”

The four men got out of the car and spread out on the ground about 5 kilometers wide and began to head northeast. Since it is looking for a big target, there is no need to take a zigzag road like looking for a vein, but there are ravines and ravines everywhere, and it is not easy.

After walking for 4 hours, I saw 3 cars, and several people found nothing. Grandpa Zhang saw that a few people were not very friendly, so he said: "Children, it's normal to not be able to find it, if it is so easy to find it, it will not wait for us to come and find it, and it has long been poached by others." ”

Bao'er said, "Grandpa, we're fine, let's just practice." ”

Grandpa Zhang smiled: "That's right, let's go to the northwest again." ”

When they arrived at the place, before they could walk separately, they saw a few mounds of earth overgrown with trees on the top of a mountain not far from the roadside. Grandpa Zhang said: "Wuyang, look at these big mounds, are they ancient tombs?" ”

A few people climbed up to the mound of earth, and when they looked down, it was indeed an ancient tomb.

After looking at it for a while, Zhu Qibin said, "Grandpa." Eldest brother. This tomb cannot be excavated. ”

Wuyang asked, "Why?" ”

"Do you see clearly? This is a quicksand stone grave, and below the top layer of dirt is loose sand, then a layer of rocks, then sand, and then stones. ”

"Then why can't you dig it?"

Zhu Qibin said: "I have seen in archaeological documents before that the coffins of this kind of ancient tombs are surrounded by this kind of quicksand and stones. Wherever you dig, quicksand will quickly fill the hole, and the person who digs the hole will definitely be buried in it. ”

Grandpa Zhang said: "Then you say, is there any way to excavate?" ”

"The only way is to dig the tomb from the top and remove all the quicksand and rocks."

Grandpa Zhang said: "Then we will buy this piece of land and dig it slowly." ”

Wuyang said: "Grandpa, we are not an archaeological unit after all, such a blatant excavation is not possible, I think it is better to report to the cultural relics department." Let them do the archaeological excavations. ”

"Then take a look first, there are not many cultural relics in the coffin."

Several people watched it for a while. Bao'er and Belle's skills are slightly worse, and the coffin is about 30 meters underground, so they can't see anything famous, Wuyang and Qibin looked at it, Wuyang said: "Grandpa, this should be a Warring States tomb, there are a lot of bronzes and jades in it, it is estimated that there are more than 100 pieces." ”

"You go to the other mounds."

This time, Wuyang and Qibin went to see separately, Wuyang arrived at a mound of earth, which was full of robbery holes, and it was also in the form of quicksand and stones, the coffin was still very complete, and the cultural relics were not stolen.

Looking at a mound next to it, there is only one robbery hole, which was dug down from the side of the tomb and dug to the bottom of the coffin, although the coffin is well protected, but the cultural relics inside have been looted. Later, I looked at two mounds of earth, and all those that used quicksand to pile stones were kept intact, and the other forms were stolen.

The 3 that Zhu Qibin looked at are also like this, so that 8 mounds and 5 are intact. When my grandfather heard about it, he made up his mind to buy the land and transfer his own construction team to excavate it.

This piece of land is not large, each mound is 3 acres in size, plus the open space in the middle, that is, the slope overgrown with trees, the total area will not exceed 150 acres.

Wuyang said: "Grandpa, don't buy it, let the national archaeological team excavate it, they have obtained these cultural relics for research value." Besides, it's not good for us to buy this piece of land in any name, and finally dig it out, but I'm afraid that it will be known and the state will still have to take it back. ”

Grandpa Zhang said: "Don't worry about my affairs, I'm very stubborn." Although I promised you not to dig the tomb, I will definitely dig it here. Rest assured, even if things don't work out, I won't let you be implicated. That's all for here, go south. ”

Wuyang knew that Grandpa Zhang never listened to other people's opinions, and it was useless to persuade him, so he had to follow him.

A few people set off to the south again, and at 6 o'clock in the morning, the sky was already a little cloudy, and there was no gain, so they drove back to the city, found a hotel, and went to bed after breakfast.

After everyone got up at noon and had dinner, they were ready to drive to visit the scenic spots, Grandpa Zhang said: "I will go to the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum this afternoon, and then go to other places when I have time, but I can't drive there, take a taxi." ”

Grandpa Zhang's words were holy decrees, and no one dared to disobey them, so everyone took a taxi to the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum. When you come back from the Mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor, there is no time to go anywhere else.

The second night was to the west, Wuyang firmly remembered one thing in his mind, that is, what the boss said, the Ren brothers in Renjia Village found the bronze, after Grandpa Zhang said that the feng shui treasure land, there was nothing to find, or not to give up, and the third night took people to go, a few people walked casually in the mountains and fields, hoping to find something.

At 3 o'clock in the morning, I suddenly received a call from Zhu Bao, "Wuyang, come here, I'm two kilometers north of you." ”

Wuyang said, "Did you find anything?" ”

"This seems to be a dungeon, you can come and have a look."

Wuyang said, "You call the others, and I'll come over right away." ”

rushed to Zhu Bao's side, Zhu Bei had already arrived, and soon Zhu Qibin also came. Looking underground, the thinnest soil layer on the hillside, about 5 meters below the stone layer, and about 5 meters below the stone layer, is hollowed out, and there are a lot of metal objects in it.

"We don't have mechanical work, we have to find the entrance to the basement to get the artifacts," Wuyang said. ”

Zhu Bao said: "I just took a casual look. It was as if the entrance was under the hillside. Nestled in the middle of the woods. The stone underneath it is not supposed to be a native stone, but was dumped underneath after being mined. Let's go into the woods and have a look. ”

followed Zhu Bao to the bottom of the hillside, and saw that the place she suspected was the entrance of the cave had already been overgrown with trees, but a few people knew that it was filled when they looked at it. At the beginning, it was already tamped, and the trees were grown in a natural environment, but after thousands of years, the trees withered and flourished, and it was impossible to see that it was a hole at all.

After Wuyang confirmed that it was the entrance to the cave, he began to dig with Zhu Qibin, and another combat shovel was used by Bao'er and Belle in turn, although it was winter, several people were soon covered in sweat.

After digging for hours, the outline of the hole was already visible. The width of the hole is about two meters. It slopes into the ground, from where they dug to the mouth of the hole. The length is about 20 meters.

During the break, Zhu Qibin said: "Big brother, it's not a matter for us to dig like this, now we have just started, it is so hard, this passage is still so long, and the sealing layer is getting thicker and thicker, the highest place is not less than 10 meters, and the distance we dig out to unload the soil is getting farther and farther, I'm afraid we will have to dig for a few days." ”

Wuyang thought about it, it is indeed the case, these soil have been tamped, not to mention, and the roots are intricately overgrown with tree roots, some of which are more than 40 centimeters in diameter, and there is no axe, so they can't be made at all.

"Qibin, let's be like this, let's stop here today. We rested in the county during the day, and on the way we saw a lot of advertisements for renting small and medium-sized excavators, so the two of us went to rent an excavator to excavate. ”

Zhu Qibin said: "Big brother, let's go our separate ways, you go to rent an excavator for excavation, I go to buy a truck, install the carriage, dig the hole at night and load the car, and leave immediately after loading." ”

"That's fine. We'll take a look around after dawn, and if there's a house nearby, we'll do it at night, and if not, we'll do it during the day. I'll call you when I dig up here, and you'll come right over. ”

At that moment, the plan was decided, and the four of them went to the car to rest.

As soon as the sky was bright, Wuyang got out of the car and went out to see the terrain, and Zhu Qibin also got out of the car, "Big brother, you are responsible for watching this side of the mountain, and I will drive to the other side of the mountain." ”

"Okay, there you go."

Wuyang walked down the mountain along the road, walked about two thousand meters, there were no households, and went to the north again, saw a valley, turned into the valley, and saw a family, the front and back of the house were planted with medicinal herbs, and the owner had been working in the medicine field.

"Big brother, it's so early." Wuyang took the initiative to say hello.

The owner is a middle-aged man in his 40s, and when he heard Wuyang greeting him, he immediately smiled, "Oh, the boss is really a rare guest, we can't see anyone here all year round." ”

"Big brother, your place has beautiful mountains and rivers, and it is a treasure of feng shui."

"Feng Shui treasure land is not counted, but one side of the water and soil supports one side of the people, as long as people are diligent, they can still support people. Boss, why are you here? ”

"We are foreigners, I heard that there are a lot of cultural relics in this area, and we want to come over to buy a few cultural relics, I don't know if my eldest brother has anything to sell here."

The owner said: "Although we are not very far from Xijing, we have never heard of cultural relics. Dozens of kilometers into the mountain, there is a Famen Temple, and there should be cultural relics in it. ”

Wuyang said with a smile: "Big brother, the cultural relics of the temple will not be sold, and we dare not buy them, so we can only buy the cultural relics of the people." ”

The owner said: "This radius of more than ten miles, that is, our family, there are indeed no cultural relics, the boss please take care of yourself." ”

"Alright, you're busy, goodbye."

Back on the side of the road, Belle and the others had already driven the car over, and Zhu Qibin had already seen the neighborhood, and there was no one there, so they could continue digging during the day.

Back in the town, a few people were having breakfast, and Wuyang called the advertised phone number on the wall, and the phone was connected as soon as it was dialed. "Boss, what's the matter with you?"

Wuyang said: "I'm in a small town and want to ask an excavator to dig it." ”

"No problem, my excavator is on top of the flatbed, just drive over. Boss, how much time does it take? ”

"It should be a few hours."

"Boss, yes, the shipping cost of the excavator is 200 yuan, and then 110 yuan per hour, if you need to eat, you have to take care of the food. Don't eat well. As long as you can eat enough. ”

"No problem. I'm waiting for you at a certain hotel in the town. ”

"Okay, I'll be there in 20 minutes."

In less than 20 minutes, a flatbed truck pulled the excavator to arrive, Wuyang stepped forward to greet the owner of the excavator is a young man less than 30 years old, the clothes are very neat, but the leather shoes are stained with some loess.

Wuyang had a good impression of this person, and said with a smile: "The boss hasn't eaten breakfast yet." Let's have a bowl of noodles. ”

"Okay, let's have a big portion of beef noodles."

While waiting for the above, Wuyang said: "Boss, I don't want anyone else to know about our matter today, can you do it?" ”

"I'm an excavator, not a boss, my surname is Xu, you can call me Xiao Xu." Boss, I used to dig the foundation of people's houses. Nothing that needs to be kept secret. However, there are rules for every line. As long as you give a small amount of hush money, I promise, and I will definitely be able to do it. ”

Wuyang said: "Master Xu, I will give you the hush money, 1,000 yuan." If you leave your phone to us for safekeeping, you can be paid an extra 10 hours of work after the work is done and before we leave, so that's fine. ”

Master Xu smiled: "Then we will make a deal, no matter whether you can dig something or not, the money I deserve is indispensable." ”

Wuyang asked, "How do you know we're digging something?" ”

"Some colleagues have dug people up before, but they haven't dug anything."

"We don't know how lucky it is, don't worry, if there is really something, we will also make you a small fortune."

"Boss, if you really have something, you don't need to give me money, just give me one thing."

Wuyang said: "You can't give you things, you have to turn things into money, and you have to take risks, so we will give you the value of a thing." ”

Master Xu said, "Boss, you can't lie to me. ”

"What are you lying to? We're afraid you'll report it. ”

Master Xu said: "How dare I report it, when you go away, I don't get anything, and I will be imprisoned for a few years if I report it, so it is called stealing chickens and rice." ”

"Okay, let's treat each other with sincerity, mutual benefit and reciprocity, and everyone will get rich."

After the meal, no one else came forward, Zhu Qibin and his wife drove away, and they had to prepare some batteries or something. Wuyang took Master Xu's flatbed truck to the ground, unloaded the excavator, and drove the flatbed truck to the small road, where passing vehicles could not see on the highway.

Master Xu said, "Boss, I started the excavator, and the timer began." ”

"No problem, it's 8 o'clock, let's start the timer."

When I got to the mountain, because it had been dug manually, Master Xu didn't need guidance, so he dug it up directly. Soon after the beginning, you can see that the passage is carved out of the middle of the stone, and the stone wall is very smooth.

Master Xu is also very professional in his work, except for occasionally drinking water and peeing, he has been working non-stop. When it was time for lunch, Belle sent it to the neighborhood and called Wuyang to pick it up.

The staple food is rice, steamed buns, the dish is a braised pork, a sauced beef, a fried fish, a green vegetable, and the soup is mustard vermicelli soup.

Master Xu was very happy to eat, burped after eating, and said with a smile: "Boss, your family conditions are good, and you can cook better than the people here here." ”

Wuyang said: "You work so hard, of course you have to eat a little better." ”

After dinner, I continued to work, and at about 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the soil in the passage was basically dug up, and Wuyang called Zhu Qibin and asked them to come over.

Zhu Qibin and the others had been waiting nearby for a long time, and after hanging up the phone for a while, Zhu Qibing and Grandpa Zhang arrived.

At the end of the passage, there is a brick wall, the color of the bricks is not green, red is not red, it should be very old.

"Boss, what now?"

"You knock the wall open with a bucket, and drive the excavator away."

Master Xu knocked twice with a bucket, and the wall fell down, Wuyang didn't let him stay here, and took out the 10,000 yuan that had been prepared for him a long time ago, "Master Xu, you can stay with my grandfather later, we have to go in and have a look." If there is a gain, there will be a lot of gratitude. ”

Grandpa Zhang left with the excavator, and Zhu Bao and the others came out of the woods, still holding the unloaded cardboard box in their hands.

Wuyang smiled: "Qibin, have you prepared a cardboard box?" ”

Zhu Qibin said: "Of course, these cultural relics are priceless things, and it would be a pity to damage them." Come, put on oxygen cylinders, put on masks, let's go inside. ”

Removing the bricks, several people followed inside, and in the faint light that came in from the entrance of the cave, they saw a long corridor, and after walking a few steps along the corridor, they saw the doors on both sides.

There was only one empty hole left in the door, and the door panel and frame had rotted into debris and piled up in the doorway. I couldn't see what was inside at the door, Zhu Qibin used a strong flashlight to illuminate, and saw a stone house of about 20 square meters, with a lot of swords stacked on the ground, but they were all packed in sheaths, and I couldn't tell whether it was good or bad.

Wuyang picked up a sword and tried to pull it out of its sheath, but with a little force, the scabbard weathered and the sword broke. I tried two of them, and both were like this, so I had to give up. "It's all rusted, so I can only take it back and ask an expert to repair it."

Bao'er said: "There are so many swords, why are you repairing them when you break a few of them?" ”

Zhu Qibin said: "There are so many swords piled up, this should be an arsenal, but unfortunately these swords are useless." ”

Bao'er said: "This is a good thing, if it is used, I don't know how many people will die." As descendants, it's a pity that we just can't see the original appearance. ”

Wuyang took the lead and walked forward, the second room was still the same sword, and I had seen 6 houses all the way, all of them were the same. In the seventh room, it was still a sword, but the hilt was not metal, but jade, and the number was much less.

Bao'er said: "Wuyang, these swords look much better, you can see if you can draw them out." ”

Wuyang held the place where the scabbard and the hilt were connected, shook it vigorously a few times, and then pumped it out, and the situation was really different. (To be continued......)
