Chapter 8 (4) The Great Hero

"Okay, okay, okay," the flying monkey listened carefully at first, but then became impatient and shouted: "What kind of mystery, how can there be so much attention?" ”

Hu Xuan ridiculed him and said: "What you don't understand, is it called engaging in mystery?" Our code should naturally be considered thoroughly, so as not to be detected by others, and if we want to rely on you, is it as simple as writing 'The jade seal is here' on the wall? ”

The flying mountain monkey and fox looked at them suspiciously, and no longer asked.

When I passed a mound, I saw a sparse woods dozens of paces away from the roadside, and there were many new earths piled up in the barren grass, and Shi Suo said, "There is a new grave there." ”

The people who escorted the car also saw it, and the flying mountain monkey said lazily: "What's so strange about the new grave, if you want to lie to me, I'm afraid that no one will dig the grave for you." ”

An attendant said beside him: "This new tomb is also from the poor family, and there is not even a paper horse float." ”

Hu Xuan looked at it, his heart moved, these new soil at first glance is a new tomb, but look carefully, he can see the clues, from the shape to the location, it does not look like a tomb, and there are three piles of soil, next to each other, three people died in a village, although it is possible, but it is not common, he looked at it from an archaeological point of view, and soon understood.

After passing the earthen hill, in front of a larger village and town, Hu Shuan let two entourages set up as usual, and went to the entrance of the village to inspect a few trees, he touched a piece of bark on an old tree, and said with a happy face: "It should be here." ”

When everyone heard this, they were overjoyed, and the flying mountain monkey limped over despite the injury to his leg, and Hu Xuan pointed to the village and said, "Let's go into the village, and you will inquire about a family for me." ”

The three carriages entered the village, and Shi Suo looked at the houses and streets on both sides, and said to Hu Xuan: "This village is ......" Hu Xuan intercepted his words and said, "That's right, this is the place we are looking for." "Entering the street, there is a wall with three big characters written on it: "Songjia Town".

The Flying Mountain Monkey also remembered, "This town, after I poisoned those people who were holding you to death last time, you walked from here." ”

Shi Suo smiled and said, "This time, you are holding us, and you are also careful of poisoning." ”

The flying mountain monkey ignored him, and the group walked forward, Hu Xuan carefully inspected every time he passed a street entrance, and walked to a small restaurant, Hu Xuan noticed that there was a very large courtyard on the side of the street, got out of the car, and let the entourage take a look at the courtyard door, nodded, turned to the flying mountain monkey and said, "You will invite the owner of this courtyard here for me." Be careful not to use force, be kind to please, otherwise don't blame me for smashing the pot. ”

The flying monkey frowned and said, "Okay, good," after speaking, he sent an attendant to knock on the door, and then commanded the group to eat in the restaurant. said to Hu Xuan: "Okay, Uncle Hu, we finally have eyebrows, how about we wait for that person while eating?" ”

Hu Xuan smiled, Shi Suo next to him and ridiculed the flying mountain monkey, "You have to be careful when eating, it is not poisonous, and even there are bad people who sell dates now, and it is very unsafe to eat dates." ”

"Fart." The flying mountain monkey scolded.

While he was eating, an attendant pulled the owner of the courtyard in, it was a thin old man in his fifties, with an unhappy look on his face, and muttered, "What's the matter, don't you pull me here, come to my house and say no?" ”

Hu Shuan turned around and said to him: "Old man, there are some things that you can't say at home, for fear of rushing your luck, and if you say it outside, you can die in the sea." ”

"Huh?" The old man's eyes widened and he said to Hu Xuan, "Sir, are you a person who understands yin and yang?" Any advice? ”

"Come here."

The old man hurriedly ran over, and Hu Xuan motioned for him to sit on the stool in the restaurant, and then asked him: "Old man, your face is not quite right, a few days ago, did you lose any six animals or the like, something very valuable?" ”

"Yes, yes, I lost a big scalper, but I didn't find it, everyone in Sanli and Five Villages knows it."

Hu Xuan shook his head, "You didn't find it, it's because the method is wrong, you have found Daxian to do the method, right?" ”

"yes."

Hu Xuan shook his head and said: "The practice is due, but you are missing a piece of introduction, so the spell is out of the direction of the gap, I passed here today, look at your courtyard is wrong, so I specially asked, in this way, I will give you a few words for nothing, not a penny, after the delivery, we will leave." ”

"Really?" The old man was amused, "Thank you, sir." ”

The people next to him, the Flying Mountain Monkey, Shi Suo, all the attendants, and the guys in the restaurant all looked at these two people as if they were looking at the Western scenery, especially those under the Flying Mountain Monkey, their eyes widened and they could see that they could see God, and their mouths were also wide open.

Hu Xuan sat on the stool unhurriedly and said to the old man, "Tell me, that great immortal, what did you tell you, wait, you come to my ear and say it, don't let them hear it." ”

The old man leaned on Hu Shuan's ear and said a few words, and Hu Shuan nodded. Seeing the flying monkey beside him, he smiled at the old man and said, "You can tell him these words again, so that he won't ask you again in the future." ”

The old man tried to get close to the monkey's ear, but the monkey shouted, "Just say it there." ”

The old man looked at Hu Shu, and Hu Shuan smiled: "Say it." ”

The old man said: "A pillar of incense at noon, pray three times at night, before the sun rises in the second day within ten years, go to the highest place in the south of the village to send three pairs of paper horses to burn, see people can not speak." ”

The crowd was confused, and the flying monkey looked unbelieving, and said to Hu Xuan with a gloomy face: "What kind of ghost tricks do you play." ”

Hu Xuan put away his smile, "Anyway, I understand, it's your business if you don't believe it." Then he turned to the old man and said, "Now it's none of your business, go home." ”

"That's my big scalper......"

"In a few days, I will be able to tell you that it is not yet time."

The old man was not satisfied, shook his head and walked out. The flying monkey had a gloomy face and said to Hu Xuan: "What do you mean, please say it now." ”

Hu Xuan said: "It means that the things are selling well, and they are selling 30% more than expected." ”

"Where the hell did it go?" The monkey's eyes widened.

Hu Xuan said softly: "One of the most famous people in the local area, the leader of the gang, and hundreds of people under his command, all respect him, and no one does not listen to him. ”

The flying monkey waved his hand, "Call the guy from the restaurant." ”

After the guy was called, the flying mountain monkey asked him: "Man, let me ask a person, is there a person in your local area, who is very famous, is the leader of the gang, and everyone under him listens to him......" Before he finished speaking, the guy even said: "You are talking about Master Song, right?" He is very famous, and in front of the president of the Yellow Parade Society, he is here to say anything to us, it is really a stomp and tremble......"

"Where does he live?" The mountain monkey interrupted him.

"Just in the street ahead, the highest gatehouse is, Lord Song is rich and powerful, and his martial arts are outstanding, that is really majestic......" The flying mountain monkey interrupted him again and ordered everyone: "Eat quickly, go immediately." ”

After a few people hurriedly finished eating, the three carriages came to the tall gatehouse in a while, and the flying mountain monkey got out of the car, glanced at Hu Bolt and Shi Suo, and suddenly ordered his subordinates, "Tie them both up." ”

Hu Xuan shouted: "Hey, what are you doing? Didn't you go to see Master Song? What do you tie us for? ”

"You kid is scheming, who knows if that Master Song is your accomplice?"

Hu Xuan said: "Then, you go and see it yourself, you find Lang Zhong to show me my legs." It will be too late if it is delayed. ”

The flying monkey snorted and said, "You are not honest, I will break your leg too." ”

Hu Xuan said angrily: "You have a vicious heart, and you will take revenge, be careful to let others break your leg." ”

The flying mountain monkey did not fight with him, so he ordered someone to tie Hu Shi and his feet hand and foot, put them on the car, and sent two people to guard them. Then he took the rest of the people and knocked on the door to see him.

The door opened, and a man who looked like a family leader led the flying monkey and the others in. Hu Bolt and Shi Suo were back to back, he twisted his body, quietly put his clothes pocket close to Shi Suo's hand, Shi Suo understood, stretched his hand a little wider, felt into Hu Suo's pocket, and took out the knife.

The two guards knew that Hu Bolt's legs were crippled, and they couldn't run anyway, so they didn't care, and the stone lock hand moved lightly and cut the rope of the Hu bolt, Hu Bolt's hand got out of trouble, took the knife and cut the rope of the stone lock, and the two slowly removed the rope on their hands and cut the rope on their legs.

The gown covering the head, covering the upper body of the two, but not the lower half of the body, when the rope on the leg was untied, it was seen by a guard, and exclaimed, "Hey......" The voice did not fall, Shi Suo had already taken off the robe covering his head, stood up from the car, punched out, knocked the man to the ground, and the other person took out a dagger and stabbed at the stone lock, Shi Suo flashed, and threw the robe in his hand to him, at this time Hu Bolt had removed all the ropes on the stone lock legs, and the stone lock flew up with a kick, and the person was also agile and dodged, Shi Suo jumped out of the car, after he was captured, depressed for a long time, at this time at first out of bondage, like a tiger like a lion, a storm of fists and feet, two guards were beaten by him to the ground collapsed, I don't know.

Hu Shuan took out the rag from his mouth and said, "Run." The two of them ran out of the street along the alley, and Shi Suo asked, "Where are you going?" ”

Hu Xuan pointed to the front and said, "Go back the same way, the new grave." ”

The two ran out of the village, and soon came to the high post, Hu Xuan observed near the pile of new soil, and carefully inspected around the high post, and the stone lock said: "This is not good, although there are a few trees here, but there are no people, let's run forward." ”

Hu Shuan shook his head, lifted a stone with his hand in a bush, and a small hole appeared, black, I don't know how deep.

"Huh?" Shi Suo said strangely, "How do you know there's a hole hidden here?" What kind of hole is this? ”

"Cave Robbery." Hu Xuan said: "There must be tomb robbers, digging holes here to rob tombs, and those new soil are not graves, but the soil dug up by thieves to hide people's ears." You go in first. ”

At this time, I heard a drum noise in the village, and people ran out of the street, and Hu Xuan said, "Quick, chase out." ”

The stone lock barely got into the hole, the hole was narrow, his body was thick, and it was very laborious, but fortunately, there was quite a lot of space inside, and the bolt followed him and also drilled in, and there was nothing to see in the black, and he went down obliquely, and the stone lock said: "It's not safe here, what should I do if I let people catch turtles in the urn?" It's better to hide outside, there are more than a dozen of them, and it's not easy to search. ”

"No, what if he buys off that Master Song and sends Huangsha to search for it?" Hu Shuan said, and forcefully moved the big stone back to its original position on the top of his head, covering the entrance to the cave.

"That's right."

The two of them walked forward with their hands in the cave, and after a while, they felt that the surroundings were spacious, and they seemed to be in a room, and they did not dare to move forward in the dark. The two looked at it, but they were in a rectangular cave hall, and on the walls of the brick barriers, some ancient paintings were painted, and Hu Shuo said: "This is the tomb road." ”

Suddenly, Shi Suo exclaimed, "Who are you?" ”

Hu Xuan was startled, and looked forward, only to see a man squatting in the corner of the tomb, who was holding a short shovel in horror, looking at the two of them. He immediately understood that this person was a tomb robber, and hurriedly said, "Don't be afraid, we are not here to arrest you, you light the candle." ”

At this time, the burning clothes were almost burned out, and the stone lock leaped up to the man, snatched his shovel, and the man trembled and said, "Yes, yes, don't kill me." ”

"Hurry up and turn on the lights." Hu Bolt ordered.

The man lit a candle and said, "We have to move the stone out of the way so that we can breathe, or we will all suffocate to death." So he let Shi Suo watch the thief, climbed back to the entrance of the thief cave, gently moved a gap, let in the wind, and breathed freely. He carefully covered the weeds to prevent them from being seen.

When he climbed back, the stone lock was interrogating the thief, and the man said, "The villain is also too poor to have no choice, so he remembered this idea, who knew that Baal dug it in, but got nothing." ”

Hu Zhuan looked back and forth in the tomb, and ordered the thief to lead the way with a candle, and then go further into the main burial chamber, where it had collapsed and could not be walked, and everywhere he passed was empty, and there was nothing to accompany the burial.

"Where are you from?" Hu Shuan asked the thief.

"The villain is from Changsha."

Hu Xuan pointed to a different colored area on the wall next to him and said: "You see, there is a previous robbery hole here, although it is filled in now, but this robbery hole was dug very large at that time, from the characteristics of the characteristics, it is not modern, it seems to be from the Han Dynasty, that is to say: as early as the Han Dynasty, this tomb has been robbed, you only come now, what else will be left for you?" ”

"Huh?" The thief's eyes widened.

After turning around, he returned to the same place, next to the tomb robber's baggage kettle, there was a black porcelain water bowl, full of dirt, Hu Shuan asked, "Is this what you found?" The thief said, "Yes, it's right next to the thief's hole you mentioned, and I don't know if it's an artifact." ”

Hu Shuan picked up the bowl, looked at it next to the candle for a while, and said: "This bowl is not for burial, it is something for the poor people in ancient times, the owner of this tomb should not take this kind of rotten firewood for burial, I think, it should be the tomb robber in ancient times, left over when he came here to rob the tomb, drink the water, and throw it here." ”

"You're a connoisseur." The thief was so impressed that he threw himself to the ground.

Hu Xuan said: "This bowl was thrown on the ground at that time and no one wanted it, but now that you have picked it up, it is an antiquity, although it is not a burial in the tomb, but it can also be sold at a good price, it is something of the Han Dynasty." ”

After looking at the ancient paintings on the wall, Hu Shuan shook his head, "The value of this tomb is not too big, the painting is also a crude work, and the owner's level is not too high, like a rich man." By the way, let's blow out the candle and don't let it compete with us for oxygen. ”

The three of them blew out the candles and sat down in the dark, and Hu Shuan asked the thief, "How long have you been doing this?" ”

"Hmm...... For the first time. ”

Shi Suo scared him and said: "If you want to be honest, let's make friends, you always talk nonsense, I will shoot you to death." ”

"Yes, the villain has been doing it since last year, but his luck has been bad and he hasn't dug up anything good."

Hu Shu asked: "Who do you sell the things you dig up to?" ”

The thief hesitated for a moment, did not answer, and said: "Don't worry, I am not from the government, and I don't want to destroy your business, I want to buy some antiquities and collect them." ”

"Yes, yes, I sold it to Boss Cai, the jade king of Changsha, but if you want to buy his things, you have to be careful, he has real and fake goods there. Of course, you're a connoisseur, so I don't need to remind you. Hey. ”

"No, thank you for the reminder." Hu Xuan said: "I just want to buy a fake, and I want to make it look like it, so that I can confuse the real thing." ”

I heard that I was buying a fake, and the thief became interested and said: "Buy fakes, then look for him, Boss Cai's craftsmanship, that's amazing, Tang Sancai, Yuan celadon, experts can't see it, he has cheated a lot of people......"

The three of them talked for a while in the cave, and the thief said, "Let's ...... When to go out? ”

"Go out when it's dark." Hu Xuan said.

Waiting for the dark, even more boring, the stone lock climbed to the entrance of the cave several times to inspect, and finally waited until the outside was dark, the stone lock was in front, the thief was in the center, and the Hu bolt was behind, the three of them climbed out of the hole in turn, lay on the ground and looked around for a while, did not see anything abnormal, Hu Bolt ordered the thief to go first, and waited for the thief to go away, and then got up with the stone lock, walked on the road, touched the direction, and walked forward.
