The water had just been drained, and it stands to reason that it should be muddy down there. But no, it's all sand and gravel underneath, and people can't feel muddy when they go down.
The tomb door was opened at three o'clock in the afternoon, and as soon as the tomb door was opened, a cool air suddenly erupted, and the two people who were responsible for opening the tomb door below all began to sneeze.
Then they raised their flashlights to shine inside, and then turned their heads and shouted: "It is indeed two coffins, one large and one small." It is estimated that the older one is the husband, and the smaller one is the wife. ”
As soon as this statement came out, the answer was obvious.
The leaders of the archaeological team and the research institute went down to take a look one after another, and then, some respected old-timers such as President Luo and the third master also went down to take a look.
Grandpa Bai was not young and didn't go down, but Bai Hui and Hu Junjie went down to take a look.
I didn't go down to look at it at all, it was nothing more than two coffins, and there was nothing to look at.
I said to the leaders of the archaeological team and the research institute, "Don't disturb them, close the tomb door." This has little archaeological value. ”
After Hu Junjie came up from below, he looked at me and said, "Chen Yuan, you are right this time." ”
When Huzi heard the music, he said, "Is this right?" Hu Junjie, I found out why you are so shameless? Since you've lost, when will my sister pass the door! ”
Hu Junjie suddenly laughed and said, "I lost? Did I lose? I didn't find the tomb, but did you find it? How can I say I lost? ”
Bai Hui walked up and stood beside Hu Junjie. He put on a very serious face and said, "I'll be fair, I still haven't decided the winner." This time, General Hu did find the wrong one, but it is better than you not doing anything and only coming out to find fault with others. Although General Hu made a mistake, he finally found a tomb, what about you, what did you find? It's nothing more than standing on the basis of others, pointing fingers here, is it interesting? ”
Bai Hui looked at President Luo at this time and said, "President Luo, do you think what I said makes sense?" ”
President Luo frowned at this time, then nodded and said, "There is some truth in what Bai Hui said. However, Chen Yuan's ability to divide gold and fix points is also obvious to everyone. I won't say more. ”
At this time, the leader of the research institute said loudly: "Yes, Chen Yuan, you can't accuse others of making mistakes, this can't be regarded as you winning." That's not how we gamble. Whoever finds the tomb wins, and no matter how many times he makes a mistake, he doesn't lose. After all, our goal is to find the tomb and allow everyone to make mistakes. ”
I said, "Okay, then go ahead and look for it." But this gamble can't be time-bound. ”
The leader of the research institute said: "Three days, I guess three days is enough." If we can find it, we will find it, and if we can't find it, we will do a carpet search. ”
I looked at Hu Junjie and smiled and said, "Okay, you can continue to look for it." Anyway, after three days, no one could find it, and it was just a draw. I'll go home and go to sleep first. ”
After speaking, I said to President Luo, "President Luo, if there is nothing else, I will go back first." ”
President Law said, "Since you have given up, you can go back." If you need anything, I'll let the third master inform you again. ”
Huzi and I left the place like this, and after going down, we passed the black car, and through the glass, we could faintly see a person sitting in the back seat of the car. As I passed the front, I saw an elderly driver sitting in front of me.
The windshield was transparent, and when I got to the front of the car, I turned my head to look over. There was a person sitting in the back seat of the car, but this person was sitting behind the driver, and I couldn't see her at all.
Huzi was going to look the other way.
I pulled him and said, "Don't look at it, let's go." ”
Huzi said, "Aren't you curious? ”
"Let's go, let's go find a place to have a few drinks."
I walked in front, and Huzi chased after me and said, "Comrade Chen, are you really not going to look for the big tomb in this park?" ”
"What is there to find, it's good to have a tie, but if you win, it's troublesome." I say.
After Huzi and I got below, we walked for a long time before we met a board master (a three-wheeled car owner).
Ban'er Ye was respectful, wiped the saddle with a rag, helped us to get into the car, and negotiated the price according to the distance. The service was enthusiastic, the fee was reasonable, and we were directly dragged to the compound of the society.
After arriving, we gave Ban'er Ye five cents, we took our big satchel and went straight to Quanjude, and returned to the bookstore after rubbing it.
Da Juanzi keeps the bookstore in good order. However, Da Juanzi doesn't like to read, she likes to listen to songs and watch TV.
When we came, this big juanzi actually moved the TV to the front hall, and many people brought their own small benches to watch TV in the bookstore.
That's when we're in the video hall!
Huzi turned off the TV directly, and the spectators saw that Huzi was unhappy, so they all left with a small bench. Huzi severely criticized Da Juanzi and told her that we opened a bookstore, not a video hall.
Da Juanzi actually suggested that we build up the backyard and open a video hall, we only need a video recorder, buy some video tapes, and get a few TVs to make a lot of money. She said: "Five cents a ticket, and many people like to watch videos. How boring it is to read! ”
Huzi and I directly rejected the proposal.
Huzi and I have heard of the video hall, where a ticket costs five cents, a few TVs are placed in front, and a VCR is used to bring a few TVs. Those police and gangster films and two-plus-one films in Hong Kong are indeed quite attractive and can make money.
However, the customers who opened the bookstore were gentlemen and ladies, and this was what we valued.
If the video hall is opened, you can imagine who will usher in them.
I said, "The backyard really needs to be built, Huzi, let's start tidying it up, this bookstore has enough books, and expand it to provide space for everyone to read." ”
I just did what I said to Huzi, and when I talked from my heart, I didn't think about the park tomb at all. The next day we hired carpenters and bricklayers, and on the third day we started preparing the materials.
The park incident has long since been forgotten by me.
I want to calm things down, but the trees want to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop!
On the morning of the third day, Huzi went out to buy breakfast and came back, telling me that there was a Daben parked at the entrance of the alley, like the one in the park that day.
I went out to see it, and it really looked like that one.
Although this capital is prosperous, there are only a handful of people who can afford to drive Daben. I came back after reading it, leaning against the door frame with Huzi, and I said, "Really." ”
Huzi said, "What are you here for?" ”
As we were talking, the old driver we saw last time walked in from the entrance of the alley and walked all the way to the door of our bookstore, and he said very politely: "May I ask if you are Chen Ye and Hu Ye." ”
Huzi said, "That's right, is there anything wrong with you?" ”
Respectfully, he stretched out his hands and held an envelope. He said, "I'm here to deliver the letter." ”
I said, "Whose faith?" ”
He said, "Read the letter." ”
At the same time as I received the letter, the old driver turned and left, walking very fast, and would not ask me any more questions. I watched him go out of the alley, and when he got to the mouth of the alley, he got in the car and left.
Huzi said: "Lao Chen, why are you so mysterious! ”
I took the envelope and looked back and forth, and there was nothing on it. I opened the letter, took out a piece of letterhead, and when I opened it, there were four delicate words: "Beware of fire!" ”
I immediately understood that this was giving me a warning! Someone is going to set fire to our bookstore.
I thought about it, this arson is for me and Huzi's lives!
Huzi directly took the letter in my hand at this time, he looked at me and said, "Comrade Chen, I think someone is going to kill us tonight." ”
