Chapter 32: The Flames Rise to the Sky
Reading Pavilion 『 』, the full text is free to read. I understand that today this pit cannot be dug without digging, and the people's will cannot be violated. Everyone except me wanted to dig this grave.
The plague kills people without distinction between rich and poor, and among those who die must be the children of rich families.
Those who died of the plague were not buried in coffins, and were generally handled by the authorities. It is likely that this Yizhuang is a place dedicated to dealing with people who have died of the plague.
This pit is a burial pit. Then there must be some cultural relics on the bodies of these corpses, this kind of corpse, no one wants to touch, they are all loaded and pulled over and buried directly.
Huzi was very anxious, looked at me and said, "Lao Chen, you are talking, everyone is waiting for you." ”
I nodded at this point and said, "In that case, let's all take a stand." We voted and agreed to the corpse to write a pledge and then dig this burial pit with a raised hand. ”
The men looked at each other and then raised their hands. I ended up holding it up as well, and I said, "So be it." ”
Voting is a necessary process, and if something goes wrong in the future, no one can get out of it. In case something happens, they all put the blame on me alone, saying that I am the captain and asking me to take full responsibility. I'm not that stupid!
And Huzi supervised the corpse shadow and wrote a guarantee, promising to marry a Chinese in the future and settle down in China. If the agreement is violated, we will compensate everyone present for mental damages of 100,000 yuan. After the agreement was written, I shook my head and said no, I said: "Rice is five cents a catty, and 100,000 yuan is 200,000 catties of rice. ”
The corpse looked at me and smiled, and said, "Old Chen, do you still understand inflation?" Not everyone understands this concept, and you can really ask for it, so why don't you want gold? ”
I said, "Gold doesn't hold the value of rice. ”
The corpse nodded and said, "Okay, I don't plan to break the contract anyway." I signed, 200,000 catties of rice. ”
Everyone should have a copy of the agreement, but the others don't want it at all, just give me a copy of the agreement. To put it bluntly, they don't care who the corpse marries, they just want to dig a burial pit.
Lu Xueman wanted it, but she was embarrassed to ask for it, but Yuwanwan was different, she not only wanted it, but also signed her name Li Qingyang on the agreement. and took out her ID card to show everyone, proving that her name is Li Qingyang.
The corpse looked at the agreement and said, "It's good that your name is Li Qingyang, why are you called Yuwanwan?" Are you from Hangzhou? ”
Yuwanwan said: "Don't they all have a stage name? I don't want to expose any of my privacy to others, I just want to live quietly except for acting. ”
It should be true that Yuwanwan is from Hangzhou, and this ID card does not need to be suspected. The Yunji Society was most prosperous in the Southern Song Dynasty, and Hangzhou was once the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty.
The agreement is signed, I have a copy, a copy of Yuwanwan, and a copy of the corpse, and the others don't need it, saying that as long as I and Yuwanwan are preserved, it will be done. In the future, if the corpse shadow breaches the contract, these two copies will be enough for everyone to be held accountable.
In fact, it's clear that the only person who really cares about this agreement is me. Yuwanwan asked for an agreement entirely to cater to me, and she was afraid that I would be too lonely. I'm still grateful to her for doing it this time.
Huzi squatted down at this time, took out the skull with two purple garlic heads, put it aside, and said, "Dig it, be careful, we will find out each corpse, and then bury it separately." ”
Zhou Tao said: "That's too much work." ”
I said, "Have you ever heard of insulting a corpse?" If it is subjective and intentional, it is punishable. ”
Zhou Tao said: "It's not necessary, if you don't raise officials privately, you won't correct it, it's been hundreds of years or thousands of years." ”
I said, "We must have a sense of reverence, and we can't say that if no one reports it, we can break the law." Dig well, and we'll bury the bodies separately. It's not just a legal issue, it's more of a moral one. That's good, you are responsible for digging, and Huzi and I are responsible for burial. ”
Zhou Tao nodded and said; "Okay, I'll listen to you."
I patted Zhou Tao on the shoulder, then took a few steps back, and I said, "It looks like I'm going to stay here for at least two or three days." You dig first, I'll go out and find a place with good feng shui to bury the bones of these ancestors. ”
After I finished speaking, I walked to Yizhuang, Huzi and Yuwanwan followed, and Huzi said as he walked: "Lao Chen, do you believe it?" Even if you don't agree with these people digging today, once this time the matter is done, they won't take it back, turn around and come back and continue digging. It's better to be a favor. ”
Yuwanwan said: "That's it, I'm afraid that you will die, now people's hearts are so bad, you can't do anything for money." If you don't agree, these people will probably not listen to you and go it alone. Also, if we can't dig up any treasures, it's okay, once we dig it out, we need to have more eyes, don't be harmed by these people. ”
Huzi said: "No, they don't have the guts." ”
Yuwanwan said: "Is there less black eating black? In this deep mountain range, Zhou Tao's four people had two guns in their hands, and they killed all five of us in this mountain, and everything was theirs. When the time comes, it will be said that we are in trouble, and who will be able to come in and look for us? ”
Huzi said: "Lao Chen, you say something!" ”
I said: "Wanwan is right, we can't dig up things, we are absolutely safe, there are not many things dug up, we are relatively safe, if there are too many treasures dug up, our safety will not be guaranteed." ”
Huzi said: "Then do you want to talk to the corpse shadow, let her and Lu Xueman be careful." ”
I shook my head and said, "We don't know what the relationship between Zhou Tao and the corpse shadow is, and it seems that we are cautious, suspicious, and villainous." Let's just pay attention to them and observe them more. ”
We went out of Yizhuang and walked up the stream in the bamboo forest, and finally I saw a high / ground, which is a horizontal water bureau.
I muttered: "The dragon's knot point of the Hengshui Bureau, the water goes from left to right, or right to left, and there is a mountain to collect it in the lower pass, block the water mouth, and it is auspicious to be tight." The game was extremely smooth! That's it. ”
Huzi snorted and said, "Well, I'm going to get a shovel, it should be easy to dig here." ”
I said, "They have four small shovels, borrow two." ”
Huzi said yes, ran back, and came back with a small shovel in one hand. Huzi and I dug up here.
While digging me, he said: "Huzi, you have to go back and take a look later, don't let them confuse the corpses, especially this head and that body, these people work very roughly, but they are not at the level of the archaeological team." ”
Huzi thrust the shovel into the mound of earth dug out and said, "I'll go now, this group of people is obviously not the same as us, they are a little dissatisfied with you!" When you said that you wanted to save the body, that Zhou Tao was obviously a little reluctant to listen to you, there was something wrong with this person. ”
I said, "You're careful, leave him alone, just be careful." ”
In fact, I also feel that this Zhou Tao has a backbone. He didn't talk to me because of the face of the corpse, in fact, he didn't accept me in his heart, and even wanted to compete with me.
After a while, Lu Xueman also came out of the inside, calling me and Huzi outside, I straightened up and said, "Huzi, Lu Xueman called us." You go and bring her. "High-quality and free reading is in the Reading Pavilion."
