Chapter 362: Graveyard
Liu Yong was still indifferent, because he had to think about it and calculate how many risks and benefits there were. According to the logic of businessmen, it is natural that the greater the risk, the greater the profit. And Liu Yong naturally wants to maximize profits, but he also doesn't want to minimize risks.
"Xianggong, what the hell do you think?" Su Erniang asked again.
"I, I decided to do it." Finally, Liu Yong said.
After Liu Qiang heard this, he slapped his face happily, and quickly stopped it when he found that something was wrong, but it still caused a few dog barks.
"However, we have to discuss how to deal with the law." Liu Yong said.
"My lord, you say yes, a certain family listens to you." Liu Qiang said.
"This is the first thing that we unknowingly took away the heirloom jade seal. The second is to inform the old village chief, and then take it openly. Liu Yong said.
Liu Qiang thought for a while and said, "My lord, my subordinates think it's better to have one." This heirloom jade seal must be an extremely important thing, don't look at this village is closed, but once it is spread out in the future, it will not be a good thing! ”
"Yes, Xianggong, as a wife, I also agree with Brother Liu's opinion." Su Erniang followed. She is Liu Yong's wife, so she naturally has to think about her husband and family.
Liu Yong thought about it again and felt that Liu Qiang's suggestion was correct.
"But in that case, no one will be able to break this village rule." Liu Yong sighed and said.
"Ahem! I said, my lord, your heart is kind, think about it, this village has gone through five or six generations of people, and it hasn't come like this? Besides, as soon as we take away the heirloom jade seal, the village rules will naturally be broken! Liu Qiang said.
"Yes, Xianggong. What Brother Liu said also makes sense. Su Erniang said.
Liu Yong pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, let's do it." ”
"But my lord, there is one more point, where is the ancestral grave in this village?" Liu Qiang asked.
"Yes, Xianggong?" Su Erniang also asked.
Liu Yong shook his head and said, "I don't know either!" ”
"What then? When I find it, it'll be dawn! Liu Qiang said worriedly.
Liu Yong said: "Don't worry, I'll see if it's on the rules of this village." ”
Liu Yong said on the one hand, and on the other hand, he unfolded the village rules, read them horizontally and vertically, and read them diagonally without finding them.
"Xianggong, why don't you read it in circles." Su Erniang said.
So Liu Yong read it around, and sure enough, he read it.
Outside the village, there is a road in the peak cave of the west twenty miles.
"So far." Su Erniang exclaimed.
"Madam, it's better to be far away, the province is afraid of being discovered by the villagers." Liu Qiang said.
Su Erniang nodded.
At this time, Liu Yong said: "Without further ado, let's rush over." But before that, Brother Li, you have to return this village rule first. ”
Liu Qiang took the village rules and said with a smile: "Mrs. Wait, a certain family will come when you go." ”
Sure enough, it was just going and coming, almost in the blink of an eye.
Su Erniang couldn't help but admire: "Brother Liu is so light!" ”
"But it's worse than Madame." Liu Qiang said with a smile.
"Brother Liu is polite. I'm just scratching the surface. Su Erniang said.
The two men bowed to each other, and came to the place where the horses were tethered, mounted their horses, lit a torch, and headed straight to the west. They deliberately bypassed the village so as not to startle the snakes.
Just after the third watch, they arrived twenty miles to the west as stated in the village rules. Under the faint starlight, there was indeed a mountain peak. But it's not high, it's just better than a few peaks around you. In fact, to be exact, it is not a mountain at all, but a small mountain.
On the north side of the mountain, Liu Yong and the others found a cemetery, and looked at the epitaph on it and learned that this was the cemetery surnamed Li.
Due to the urgency of time, they did not have time to take a closer look, so they hurried through the cemetery to the mountain.
If this is a person, she will definitely be afraid, don't look at Su Erniang is a heroine, but at this time, she is still leaning on Liu Yong tightly when she walks in the cemetery.
After passing through the cemetery, the three of them went to the cave with torches.
It's not easy to find, I found the top of the mountain from the bottom of the mountain, but I didn't find it.
"Why don't there be caves?" Liu Qiang asked in wonder.
Liu Yong thought for a while and said, "In this way, the three of us will look for it separately, so that the area will be larger." I'm in the middle, and the two of you are ten meters apart and looking for this. ”
"Yes, sir." Liu Qiang agreed.
So the three of them went their separate ways. Came down from the top of the mountain. When I found the bottom of the mountain, I heard Su Erniang shouting: "I found it." ”
Liu Yong and Liu Qiang hurried over and found that there was indeed a small hole in the dense bushes that could enter a person. The entrance to the cave is just east of the mountain. There is no correspondence with the cemetery.
Liu Yong said: "Let's go, let's go in." ”
Liu Qiang took the lead, Liu Yong was in the middle, and Su Erniang broke off, and the three of them entered the cave together.
You can only bend down to walk inside, because the height is not enough, and there can only be one person walking inside, which is very narrow. When I went to the innermost, I didn't see any doors.
Liu Yong understands that passages like this are all organized. Before he could say it, Liu Qiang had already found it. It seems that he also thought of this.
The three of them began to grope around the walls of the cave. After about a cup of tea, Liu Yong touched a smooth stone, and then turned it around, only to see the wall of the cave open.
The three of them glanced at each other, and they all showed joy.
"Let's go, let's go in." Liu Yong said.
Then it was Liu Qiang who took the lead and entered the cave door.
It's even narrower inside, and it's the way down.
The three of them carried torches all the way down. Finally came to the flat ground, which was a small path. Keep going. After walking for about 50 meters, I suddenly turned, walked for more than 50 meters, and finally turned a small corner, and my eyes suddenly opened up.
This is a burial chamber with three coffins, and in the middle is a large coffin. It seems that it should be the owner of the tomb, that is, the ancestors of this Lijia Village.
Liu Yong came to the big coffin in the middle with a torch. There were words written on the coffin. However, it is covered with gray nets, and it is difficult to see.
Liu Qiang stretched out his hand to tear off the gray net, and the handwriting became clear.
The approximate meaning of what is written above is that the person buried here is named Li Dan, the grandson of Tang Zhaozong, but it is not written who his father is. It says how he got here. It turned out to be the last years of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty was in turmoil, and the Zhu thieves stole the country, forced the Li family to abdicate, and wanted to kill them all. So this Li Dan fled to this closed place with the jade seal of the country and established a village.
There was also a sorcerer among the people who came, and he said that only the person surnamed Liu could take away the jade seal of the country, and if he took the jade seal, the witchcraft on the village rules would naturally be cracked.
It also wrote why the villagers were not allowed to leave the village, just to protect the descendants of the Li family, for fear of being driven out by the enemy. Hence the vicious village rules. And the wizard has also arrived, and the person who can come here and get the jade seal of the country must be a person surnamed Liu.
