The Scourge of Witchcraft Chapter 23 Wooden Box Silk Silk
While waiting for Huang Dawei to come back, Qiu Yan told me about the situation of the ancestral grave.
She said that most of the burial chambers had collapsed, but because the soil on them was more than two meters deep, people who did not know the situation could not tell that it was an ancient tomb.
I was relieved to hear Qiu Yan say this, I wasn't worried that someone would covet the funeral goods there, but I was worried about the corpse rot fungus, although Huang Dawei came back to life from the corpse rot fungus, it doesn't mean that other people can too.
Now, there is only one person who knows that place and knows that it is profitable, and this person is Huang Dawei, but he has suffered there, and if he heals his scars and forgets the pain and has to pass, then no one can blame him.
Speaking of this, I mentioned the situation of the corpse rotting fungus to Qiu Yan, Qiu Yan nodded after listening, and said: "I also noticed the situation you said, I didn't call anyone at that time, and when I came back, I saw Huang Dawei on the ladder at the exit, I pulled him out, I felt strange at the time, I thought you used some method to rescue him, but at that time I was in a hurry to find you, so I didn't bother to ask him." ”
"Well, I can tell you now that Huang Dawei got up on his own, and I was surrounded by zombies at the time, and I didn't touch him at all, and besides, it's not just him who is strange, you have been lying on the edge of the exit, and you don't seem to have anything to do."
Qiu Yan thought back for a moment and said in surprise: "Yes, if you don't say it, I didn't pay attention, I kept paying attention to you at that time, and it really didn't seem like there was anything." ”
I nodded and continued: "Me too, I was sure I was hit at the time, but at that time I was back in the darkness, but it didn't take long for me to wake up, as if nothing had happened, the strangest thing is ~~~~"
Before I could finish my sentence, I heard the door outside the courtyard "clang" opened, and a van drove into the courtyard.
After a sound of footsteps, Huang Dawei pushed open the door and came in through the crack in the door.
"Yo, big nephew, wake up." Huang Dawei saw that Qiu Yan and I were looking at him, so he asked with a smile on his face, and then pushed open the door and walked in.
"Hehe, Uncle Dawei, I'm really bothering you!" I hate it, but at this time I was lying on the bed at his house, and I heard Qiu Yan say that in order to save me, Huang Dawei did work a lot, so I still tried to be polite.
"Hey, where is it, don't say that we are both surnamed Huang, even if it is an irrelevant person, I can't die without saving it!"
Huang Dawei's words immediately made me have a trace of respect for him, and being able to say such things at least proves that he is not a villain who is completely greedy for money.
"Uncle Dawei, let's sit down and chat." I pointed to the side of the bed and said to Huang Dawei.
Huang Dawei rubbed his hands, hesitated for a moment, and finally sat down.
"Uncle Dawei, I know that you took that bag of things back, don't worry, since you got it back, I won't persuade you to return it."
Huang Dawei touched the back of his head and laughed a few times.
"However," I continued, "Uncle Dawei, these things are not trivial, they are things from the Western Han Dynasty, and if you sell them outside, it will inevitably not attract suspicion, so I advise you to think about it more." ”
"Uh~~This~~This~~~Hey~~~" Huang Dawei refused to reply.
"Hey, Uncle Dawei, that's what I said, if you have to take it out and sell it, I won't stop you, I just want you to be prepared. In addition, Qiu Yan and I have a different purpose for this trip, can you take out the things you brought back for us to see? Don't worry, we're just going to see, and we don't want any of your things. ”
Seeing that Huang Dawei was cowering and refused to move, Qiu Yan also persuaded him: "Uncle Dawei, to put it mildly, your bag of things was exchanged for Zimu's life, if it weren't for him, you might not be able to come back alive, if you want to say it, your bag of things also has our share, now we just want to take it out and take a look, I think, this request is not too much, right?" ”
Huang Dawei thought for a long time in embarrassment, and finally slapped his thigh and stood up, then ran out and rummaged through nowhere, and then took the cloth bag in.
"Hey, eldest nephew, I know you think I'm a money-hungry villain, I don't want money to die, I admit this, and I don't care. These days, money is not easy to earn, there are many places to spend money at home, children's tuition and miscellaneous fees, tutoring fees, money for the elderly to catch medicine, and the whole family's food, clothing, housing and transportation, you need money anywhere, your sister-in-law has no culture, and her body is weak, how can I earn it alone, so ~~~"
I saw that Huang Dawei was about to cry as he spoke, so I quickly stopped him, "Uncle Dawei, I know everything, don't worry, let's just see, if it's useful to us, we'll take it, if it's useless, we won't take any more." ”
With that, I spread out the cloth bag impatiently.
When I opened it, I found that Huang Dawei's vision was not good, although the burden looked big, but there were many clay pots inside, and a few of them were even broken, which were not worth a few dollars, but there were also some gold and silver utensils in it, although they were few, but in terms of age, it was no problem to sell them for more than a dozen or hundreds of thousands.
At this time, I found that there was a very delicate box at the bottom of the baggage, the box was made of wood, and the surface was painted or something, but it was very well preserved.
I took the box out, opened it, and found that there was nothing inside, only an alcove like a pot table.
The groove was strange, an irregular oval, and there were some marks on the recess, and I looked at them closely, and suddenly I knew what the box was for.
I put the box in front of Qiu Yan and asked, "Look at it, do these marks look like tortoise shells?" ”
"Tortoiseshell?" Qiu Yan took the box and looked at it carefully, and suddenly exclaimed, "It's really eh, a complete tortoise shell!" ”
Qiu Yan said, and handed the box back to me, Huang Dawei next to him saw that we were not interested in those gold and silver utensils, and was happily packing up, not paying attention to the box handed over by Qiu Yan, accidentally bumped it, Qiu Yan didn't hold it steady, and the box fell on the bed.
After the box fell on the bed, the pot-like alcove suddenly fell out, and I realized that the alcove and the box were actually separated.
I picked up the box and was about to put the alcove back, but when I picked it up, I found that there was a layer of silk at the bottom of the box.
At first, I just thought that this layer of silk was just a decoration in the box, but out of curiosity, I took it out and looked at it, but after looking at it, I realized that it was not as simple as I thought.
There are some paintings embroidered on the silk silk, which look like landscape paintings, but from the paintings you can see a curved cave on a mountain, and in the cave, there is something that glows.
In the corner of the silk silk, there are three seal characters engraved, I showed Qiu Yan, and she said that those three words are "Wulai Mountain".
After that, I took the silk silk and the box and studied it carefully for a while, but there was no other discovery, I remember that Huang Dawei's bag of things was taken out of the two coffins next to the desk, then these things are likely to be Huang Cai's funeral goods, that is to say, this box is probably used to hold the whole tortoise shell, I think this box should be able to tell us something.
So I said to Huang Dawei: "Uncle Dawei, look at this box, it is estimated that it is not worth much money, otherwise, you can give it to me, and the rest will be yours, okay?" ”
Huang Dawei was overjoyed, nodded again and again and said: "Hey, I've said it, you also have a share of this bag of things, you can take it if you want, you don't need to ask me, and these things, you can also take a little!" Huang Dawei said as he took out part of the gold and silver utensils in the baggage and put them on the bed to give them or not.
"Forget it, Uncle Dawei, I said it, I will only take the things that are useful to us, those that are useless to us at all, you take them back and collect them!"
Huang Dawei touched the back of his head embarrassedly, and finally put the things into the baggage.
After putting the burden away, Huang Dawei walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, stared at the box and asked, "Big nephew, let me ask more, what do you want to do with Qiu Yan's sister Fei Fei to find the ancestral grave with such an old nose, just for such a box?" ”
I handed the box to Qiu Yan and asked her to put it away, and then replied: "Uncle Dawei, this is a long story, to put it simply, we just want to find out what our ancestors are doing, you just need to know this." ”
Huang Dawei was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then said with a smile: "Forget it, I know if you don't say it, it's definitely not that simple, I knew from the first time I saw you on the train, you are not ordinary people, the day before yesterday in the tomb, your skills and courage, I have seen it, I am even more sure that your purpose is not simple." ”
I smiled, looked at Huang Dawei and asked, "Uncle Dawei, after this time, do you still think that our ancestors are just ordinary people?" ”
Huang Dawei didn't seem to have thought about this problem, after listening to my words, he lowered his head and thought for a while, "Hehe, I won't tell you, if you weren't here, I would have doubted whether it was the ancestral tomb of the Huang family, to be honest, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe that there was such a big mausoleum on our ancestors, this is comparable to the imperial tomb." ”
"So, our ancestors are not simple, and their methods are not simple, I advise you to keep the things you take back, just take them as heirlooms, don't sell them."
Huang Dawei nodded and replied, "I know, eldest nephew, don't worry, I will think about it." ”
Speaking of this, I gave Qiu Yan a look, Qiu Yan understood, and immediately took out the money that had been prepared, "Uncle Dawei, this is 20,000 yuan, even if it is your travel fee!" ”
Seeing this, Huang Dawei hurriedly shirked it, "Sister Qiu Yan, what are you doing here, we can be regarded as living and dying together, and what are you talking about the cost of the journey, isn't this a life?" ”
Qiu Yan ignored it, and just stuffed the money into Huang Dawei's hand, "Uncle Dawei, I said it before, this is what you deserve!" ”
Huang Dawei looked at the two stacks of money in his hand in surprise, and muttered: "Even if you want to give, you don't need so much!" ”
I patted Huang Dawei on the shoulder and said, "Uncle Dawei, we didn't plan to give so much, and the reason why we decided to give so much is that we don't want you to sell what you took from the tomb." I hope you will listen to my advice, first, those are the things of our ancestors, and second, they are the things of the dead, and there will be no good results in making a fortune with those things. ”
After hearing this, Huang Dawei's face turned red, and I saw him blink his eyes twice, and tears came out of the corners of his eyes.
"Hey, that's all I have to say, what else can I say? Big nephew, I promise you, I won't sell any of this pack, just like you said, let's be a family heirloom, our ancestors are so beautiful, we can't embarrass them! ”
"Hehe, that's right, money, let's work hard to earn it, this kind of thing that damages yin morality, let's not do it!"
"Hehe, yes, let's not do it!"
After saying this, I mentioned to Huang Dawei that we were going to leave tomorrow, Huang Dawei was full of emotion, and had to stay with us for a few more days, and finally, under our repeated insistence, he agreed to leave us to have a good meal before leaving.
So, after we had a very rich home-cooked meal at Huang Dawei's house, Qiu Yan and I went back to the provincial capital early the next morning.
