Chapter 255: Ruthless
Originally, their second brother wanted to stop it, but Zhang Housheng also agreed. However, the man misestimated Zhang Housheng's control over his subordinates, and actually wanted to recruit a few people from their gang to run away before leaving.
For the sake of safety, the core members of the general tomb robbery gang are usually their own family members, but sometimes because of need, they will also absorb some people who are not from their own family, and the second brother will certainly not be stupid enough to win over those Zhang Housheng's own family members.
However, Zhang Housheng seems to be honest, but in fact, he is very suspicious, and usually pays special attention to the ideological problems of those outsiders. In addition, these people somewhat looked down on the second brother's behavior, and it didn't take long for Zhang Housheng to know about it. How did this make Zhang Housheng bearable, and immediately killed him.
Of course, Zhang Housheng has been the boss of the tomb robbery gang for so many years, and it is not in vain, at least the depth of the city government is beyond the reach of ordinary people, even if he has murderous intentions towards the second brother, Zhang Housheng was still very enthusiastic about him before he launched it, and doing so undoubtedly lowered the vigilance of that person.
Zhang Housheng chose the timing of his move, and put it at the farewell banquet of the second brother.
At that time, after thirty years of drinking, Zhang Housheng went to toast the second brother with a smile, and said all the good things, and then Zhang Housheng took advantage of his unpreparedness and poked him to death with chopsticks with a thunderous momentum. That scene was really miserable, and whenever I remembered the picture at that time, the two people sitting there still felt palpitations.
In addition, when it comes to Zhang Housheng's ruthlessness, it is far more than that, which starts slowly from his life experience.
In fact, Zhang Housheng's father used to be the son of a family of tomb robbers in the south. During those years, the Zhang family who dug graves and robbed graves. Of course, it was inevitable to be impacted, and Zhang Housheng's parents saw that the momentum was wrong. packed up and fled to Zhoujiazhuang.
As for the fact that they chose to flee to this Zhoujiazhuang, in addition to the fact that it was quiet and peaceful and did not suffer much from the situation, there was also one most important reason.
According to their family's records, there is likely to be a Qin cemetery near Zhoujiazhuang, and the scale of this tomb may not be small.
Zhang's father has been cultivated by the family as an elite since he was a child, and over the years, his idea of tomb robbing has penetrated deep into the bone marrow, if it is not for the way. At that time, he may still be shuttling between the great mountains and rivers, greedily digging up the ancient tombs of his ancestors one by one.
Even if the environment at that time did not allow it, Zhang's father always had the idea of robbing the tomb, so he chose the location of the escape here as a bridgehead for his comeback.
Of course, at that time, Zhang's father did not dare to come here and began to explore the address of the ancient tomb, so the family lived quietly here for more than 20 years. And in the second year, there was Zhang Housheng.
However, this kind of quietness was also forced to helpless for Zhang's father, and he was always worried that he could not rob the tomb, so in addition to the daily farming time, he spent all his energy on teaching Zhang Housheng. Of course, the content of his teaching is how to rob tombs, as well as the identification of cultural relics and antiques.
As for how Zhang's father can also identify cultural relics and antiques. It's also very simple, if you only know about tomb robbing. Even if you steal something good, you don't know it. is also making wedding dresses for others, and as an elite child of a family of tomb robbers, it is definitely impossible for him to let this happen.
In this way, when the spring breeze of reform and opening up blew to Zhoujiazhuang, Zhang's father's restless heart could no longer be suppressed. However, after so many years of life, he also has feelings for Zhoujiazhuang, and Jihua, who originally planned to make a comeback with the ancient tomb here in Zhoujiazhuang, can only be temporarily invalidated.
So Zhang's father took Zhang Housheng, who was in his twenties, to his hometown in the name of visiting relatives, and encouraged his relatives at home to start his old business again.
To say that Zhang's father's ability to find the tomb is really powerful, he found the big tomb every time, but after three times, everyone's pockets swelled, so that some relatives who were still suspicious of robbing tombs at the beginning could not find the north.
However, when the gang stole the fourth tomb, they had an accident and encountered an ancient tomb with a mechanism, which almost wiped them out.
In order to prevent tomb robbery, the ancients invented many anti-theft methods, and commonly used anti-theft facilities, the most common of which are toxic substances and traps.
For example, the famous Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, archaeologists have been testing it with various instruments for a long time, and the test results show that the mercury content in the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang far exceeds the mercury content in the nearby soil layer, which is consistent with the ancient book record that the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang used mercury to simulate rivers, lakes and seas.
Mercury vapor is highly toxic and can cause brain damage and death if inhaled, so it is generally believed that a large amount of mercury has the effect of preventing theft.
However, the mercury anti-theft is too single after all, so there will be traps to cooperate. Complex trap structures may lose their original function due to decay and rust over hundreds or thousands of years, so often the simplest structures are the most effective, such as flaps.
And the mechanism they encountered this time was the chain flap.
The so-called chain flap is to dig a pit about three meters deep in the tomb, the length and width depend on the specific situation of the tomb, and the knife and cone sharp weapon of about 10 centimeters are distributed under the pit. The upper layer of the pit is covered with several wooden planks, with a shaft in the middle of the plank, and a small object of the same weight is decorated with a small object of the same weight, in the shape of a balance scale, and there is a cover on the board.
If a grave robber steps on a plank, one end of the board sinks, and there is no hope of escape, and he will inevitably fall on the cone of the knife in the pit.
The tomb they dug was a Han king's tomb, and at that time, they had cleared several mechanisms in the tomb, walked to the door of the tomb, and saw a huge stone sealing the door.
Generally, in order to prevent theft, large tombs often use huge stones to build the tomb wall, and the tomb robbers use up shovels and axes, and they do not want to break the tomb wall. And seeing the huge stone sealing the door means that this tomb is likely not to be patronized, which makes a group of tomb robbers overjoyed.
Seeing that those precious relics had beckoned to them, a group of people ran over to look at the huge rocks that had sealed the door. But as the saying goes, happiness begets sorrow, and this idiom is a true portrayal of them at that time.
The designer of the burial chamber actually set the chain flap right in front of the boulder, and it is not known whether it was because the mechanism was in disrepair or on purpose, until the second person ran to the door, and the mechanism was activated.
I saw a hula, and many people didn't even have time to react, and they were swallowed up by the organs. And Zhang Housheng's luck was very good at that time, he was standing on the edge of the agency, but Zhang's father was not so lucky, his position was just before Zhang Housheng, and the agency happened to patronize him.
Originally, as long as Zhang Housheng pulled Zhang's father, he had a great chance of saving him, but the bad thing was that there was still a certain chance that both of them would fall, so when Zhang Housheng saw Zhang's father grabbing him, instead of pulling him, he kicked him and kicked him into the trap.
Zhang Housheng's performance, the remaining lucky person next to him was dumbfounded, Zhang Housheng originally wanted to kill him immediately, but he didn't expect that there was an accident in the tunnel at this time, and a large amount of pale white smoke was sprayed on both sides of the wall.
Seeing this, Zhang Housheng was startled, and hurriedly ran out, and the lucky man lost his mind because he saw what Zhang Housheng did, and when he found these smokes, he had already inhaled a lot, and the whole person fell down without saying a word.
zuihou, in addition to Wangfeng, there are two people who are not feeling well, and the five people who go down, only Zhang Housheng is left, and the loss is not heavy.
It's just that Zhang Housheng actually didn't please him, he also inhaled a little poisonous mist just now, and that bit of poisonous mist also had an impact on his body, and the impact was nothing else, or he couldn't be humane anymore, which may be the punishment for killing his father just now.
Speaking of which, everyone must have understood that Weishenme Zhang Housheng's wife would have been pregnant for so long, and she died in a car accident not long after she was pregnant.
And it was precisely because of this experience that Zhang Housheng had the paranoia of robbing the tomb, and after he recovered his body, he gathered the previous few people and began to rob the tomb frantically, and countless precious cultural relics were stolen by him for a while. Some of these artifacts are scattered all over the country, and some of them are sold abroad.
However, Zhang Housheng also knew the truth that rabbits don't eat the grass next to the nest, and there is an idiom called the three holes of the cunning rabbit, Zhoujiazhuang became his old nest, so he did not steal the ancient tomb near Zhoujiazhuang.
And in Zhoujiazhuang, Zhang Housheng has always behaved honestly, often being kind to others, no matter who has something to do, as long as he is free, say hello, and he will immediately go over to help.
Therefore, in the minds of the people of Zhoujiazhuang, Zhang Housheng is an honest person who can no longer be haode, and he would never have thought that he would be a tomb robber who kills people without blinking.
As for the time when Zhang Housheng went to rob the tomb, he generally chose to go to the farm during the slack time, and the reason was nothing more than to go to his relatives' houses in the south to walk around, and the time was generally less than three months. And this time, including tomb search, exploration, preparation, and theft, shows that Zhang Housheng's level of tomb robbery is high, and it is already better than blue.
As for the sale, Zhang Housheng is generally arranged as a peripheral person, except for some important occasions, the core members of the team will rarely show up.
The three of them drank for a while, and the short man put down the dishes and chopsticks and said, "Big brother, I'll change the third brother." ”
Zhang Housheng waved his hand and said, "Well, fourth, remember to be careful." ”
The fourth nodded, but instead of going out, he went to the back room.
After waiting for about ten minutes, I saw a man with a beard on his face walking out of the house. (To be continued......)
