508 Grave digging

Lord Wu and Master Ke had long known about the place where the treasure was hidden in Jiangji Village, and they had also heard Xu Erlang mention two sentences, saying that gold and silver might be hidden in the graves where the ancestral graves of the people of Jiangji Village were located. They thought the cemetery would be so big, but in fact, it was really inconspicuous.

Lord Wu walked up the small dirt slope and circled around the three small dirt bags on the side twice, "Is it really down here?" Who is so capable of coming up with such a way to hide treasure? ”

Master Ke said, "The people of the Sheng family have always been secretive, and among the five great families in Tongzhou, the Sheng family is not visible on the surface, the actual background is the most sufficient, and the talents are also the most substantial." The Sheng family can even research out bombs, but it is really insignificant to come up with a place to place the treasures of their ancestors. ”

The third prince and the head of the household followed suit, and the two of them looked at the dense small earthen bags in this cemetery, and estimated the number in their hearts, and they were both a little surprised.

"There are not three hundred of these graves, but two hundred are absolute. If, according to Lord Xu, the gold and silver are hidden in the coffin, the amount is really not small. ”

Lord Wu suddenly remembered a question, "Were the bones of the Sheng family placed in the coffin with the gold and silver, or were they buried elsewhere?" ”

Where else can you put it without putting it in a coffin? If you put it outside, it will be exposed by the rain, won't it be exposed?

But it doesn't seem to be very appropriate to put it in a coffin, after all, even if the gold and silver are stained with the bad luck of the dead, it makes people feel uncomfortable, doesn't it?

Xu Erlang knew a little bit about the situation here, so he said, "The bones of the Sheng family's descendants should be buried in the Sheng family's ancestral grave, and the bones of the rest of the people, if the corpses have not become skeletons, should still be in the coffin; If the years are long and they become skeletons, they should be thrown out. If this is the case from time to time, it does not explain the "ghost fire" I saw all over the ground when I came here that night.

The three princes felt that Xu Erlang's words were reasonable, but no one could say what the specific situation was, so they could only wait for the coffin to open and then see the situation.

A few people looked at the hour, and when they saw that it was noon, they asked the guards to come and dig the grave.

Even though Xu Erlang meant that there would not be too many corpses buried in this cemetery here, for various reasons, several people still chose the time of the day when the yang energy was the most abundant.

The ancients were still very taboo about digging up corpses and digging graves, even if they were princes and grandsons, they would be impeached by the Imperial Historical Observatory if they did things lacking virtue for no reason. There is conclusive evidence this time, otherwise if he really wants the third prince to order the grave to be dughed, he really won't have to open his mouth, after all, it's too lacking in morality, isn't it?

The soldiers stepped forward one after another, holding the ? Head, shovel, with an order, he moved towards several graves on the periphery.

This move was amazing, and some of the people of Jiangji Village who secretly peeked at the movement here all ran out.

Earlier, these people were lying on the wall, hiding in a big tree, or simply cats in the woods. They had never seen the world, and when they saw so many armored soldiers, they were also afraid, and they really thought that something big was happening in the village.

Is it a big deal, but no matter what big thing happens, you can't dig people's ancestral graves, right?

Even the man who coaxed the bag couldn't hide it at this time, and jumped off the wall with a shout to stop.

Jiangji Village is surrounded by regiments, and now only entry and exit are allowed. There are several families in Jiangji Village that are heavily guarded in front of and behind their houses, and the people inside are unable to fly. But the vast majority of ordinary people have no one guarding the door at all. They were all inconsequential people, and it was a waste of troops to send people to guard them.

However, in order to maintain order, there is a team of men and horses guarding the three main roads in Jiangji Village. But these soldiers are also a little restrained in the face of the crazy people who seem to be swarming in, aren't they?

Although these people are all surnamed Sheng, their blood relationship with the contemporary Sheng family has long been far from mentioned. And they themselves don't know much about their ancestors, and they don't rely on the surname Sheng to do evil. They are really the people who honestly work at sunrise and rest at sunset, and they hurt them, this belongs to oppression and hurting the people, isn't it?

The soldiers hesitated a little, and several old men broke through their blockade. The old men were not afraid of death, and they encountered several groups of soldiers in the middle, and the swords in their hands did not block their way. I saw them running to a place more than ten meters away from the three princes one by one, and they knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "My lord, the people of our Jiangji Village are all good people. We haven't done anything illegal again, my lord, you can't bully honest people, you can't dig up the graves of our ancestors. It's going to be thunder from the sky, my lord. ”

Then another old man came trembling and fell to his knees with a pop. The old man is afraid that he is not ninety years old, it is really full of teeth that have fallen out, and there are only three or two hairs left, and his face is full of brown age spots, and he can't say anything, but the whole person is shaking with excitement, "Adults, you can't dig graves." If anyone in our village breaks the law, we will definitely not cover it up if you say it. The people in our village are honest, and if there is no such thing as evil, they will definitely not sneak anything to hide. My lord, this land is really the ancestral grave of our Lao Jiang family, and the ancestors of the Lao Jiang family are buried in it, if the graves of our ancestors are dug up, our descendants can only die here......"

A few more old ladies ran out of the house when they heard the news, but more of them were old men from the village, who came over regardless of the news. But after a while, the scene was stunned and kneeling. Fortunately, the officials blocked their way forward, and they were not allowed to enter, otherwise according to their excitement, I am afraid that they would be able to hold the three princes and shake them violently.

This is really not a human business, what a lot of hatred and resentment, to dig people's ancestral graves! This is the hatred of killing the father and taking the wife, and it has not reached the point of revenge.

Everyone was crying with snot and tears, especially the old men, who were bleeding from their heads when they knelt down. It's not okay to go on like this, they are here to dig up the Sheng family's treasures, and even if they really dig out the gold and silver, it will only be offset by merit and demerit.

The three princes immediately ordered people to restrain the old men, and this sudden situation was within their expectations, so the three princes asked the head of the household to explain the context of the matter.

Hearing that their ancestors' surname was Sheng or not Jiang, the men, women and children at the scene did not believe it. But their hearts were lifted up. After all, the family is powerful, and the surrounding villages were not less affected by the family in the early years. And they Jiangji Village, because they took in the head of the Sheng family to take shelter from the rain in the village earlier, they have been blessed by the Sheng family over the years, and the people in the village have never been bullied by outsiders, and because of the care of the Sheng family, their lives are comparable to those people in the city.

Earlier, they also felt that the Sheng family was honest and sincere, and the Sheng family deserved to be a family. People know that they have received benefits, so they are grateful to others.

But now that you think about it, you just took them in for one night while they were sheltering from the rain, so your face is enough for people to bless your whole family, and even more so your entire village? Again, the head of the Sheng family who was sheltered from the rain earlier has passed away for a long time, and now the head of the Sheng family is his descendant. So the question is, how much grace did this shelter from the rain avoid, so that the family asked their children and grandchildren to continue to take care of you before they died? Does that make sense? This is obviously unreasonable!!

Many people in Jiangji Village at the scene began to beat drums in their hearts.

As soon as the head of the village in Jiangji Village said all kinds of inappropriateness, the hearts of the people were even higher.

They all live in the same village, and no matter how much the village chief's family hides it, no matter how much life their family lives, they can't escape everyone's eyes.

When the big guys are happily showing their teeth because of eating a meal of meat, the village chief's house has the smell of meat every day; Look at the daughters-in-law of the village chief's family, they are all high-quality silk, and they also have a complete set of jewelry heads, the gold is bright, and their eyes hurt.

In the past, they all thought that the second son of the village chief's family had the ability to write books and led the whole family to live a good life. But even if the family is not separated, the second eldest of the village chief's family earns the family to his daughter-in-law, and he gives the eldest daughter-in-law and the third daughter-in-law a treatment, who can stand it?

Again, don't you just write a book, it's really so much money, and the family that can be supplied with gold and silver is dressed in gold and silver? Can they also let their whole family not have to work in the fields, and eat and drink all year round? It's impossible to think about.

Tobe Shangshu is the best at lip service, he is also an old man, and he is the best at perceiving people's hearts. Seeing that this group of people were stunned, Tobe Shangshu dropped a bomb and said that it might not be their own family buried in this cemetery. Or, it was the bones of relatives buried earlier, but now those bones are still not in the coffin, which is not good.

This is like pouring a scoop of boiling water in hot oil, and it was fried at that time.

Several old men trembled, panting unevenly, "Then how can it?" So how can it? Let's see it buried with our own eyes, so why can't it be in the coffin? ”

"That's it. My mother's birthday clothes are still worn by me, and I personally stare at and bury them. I repair their graves every year, so how can my own mother not be in the coffin? ”

"Where can it be if it's not in the coffin? Who is so lacking in virtue that they can dig people out? ”

"What a grudge this is!! My lord, we are all people of the rules, and we have never been a traitor. This digging people's ancestral grave, my lord, you have to avenge our grievances. ”

Speaking in a hurry, these people became more and more convinced of the words of the Hubu Shangshu. At that moment, several old men were in a hurry, and even wanted to dig out the graves of their relatives with their own hands to see if there were still the bones of their parents inside.

Seeing this, the third prince and Xu Erlang took advantage of the situation to let the guards let a few older ones enter the encirclement. As for the rest of the villagers at the scene, although they were not allowed to approach, they also turned a blind eye to their behavior of climbing trees and mountains.

In order to win the trust of the people and not to make the tense out of control, in the end, after the three princes discussed, they decided to dig up the three small dirt bags outside.

If the corpses here are gone, it will support their claims, and the people will probably be more active in digging graves than they are. As for if there is a corpse in it...... That's impossible. Xu Erlang had already investigated, and the closer he got to the grave on the edge, the older it was. The corpses of the people inside were designated as skeletons, no, they must not even be gone by now.

said to dig it, because of the large number of people, and because the surrounding soil was not particularly deep, and when it was buried, the family of the corpse was not particularly wealthy, and the coffin containing him was just a thin coffin.

Soon the coffin was revealed, and soon, a brave soldier pried open the nail that had sealed the coffin, ready to open the lid of the coffin.

An old man standing in front of him was trembling and couldn't stand.

This is his grandfather's grave, and if his grandfather is really not in it, then he will go to hell to explain to the old man. But if the old man is still there...... That's really the ancestral coffin board can't be suppressed.

The old man's heart was pounding, but there was one thought that became clearer. There are no bones of the ancestors here!

Don't look at others as old, but it is precisely because people are old that they have more knowledge. The children and grandchildren of the surrounding villages will later raise their ancestral graves after becoming famous, and they are ready to change the feng shui treasure land for the ancestors. At that time, he went to see the excitement, and he clearly remembered that when the coffin was dug up, a foul smell that had lasted for years came to his nose. Some old people said that it was the smell of corpses. And now that the nails on this coffin are all warped, but there is no smell of leaking, what is the need to talk about this?

The third prince ordered the coffin to be opened, and the coffin was directly opened with the concerted efforts of everyone.

A dazzling golden yellow erupted out, but there were still the remains of the old man in the coffin, but they were all filled with gold and silver.

The old man who was watching couldn't stand it, rolled his eyes, closed his eyes, and fainted directly.

At this time, the coffin boards of the other two coffins were also opened, and as expected, they were all filled with neat gold bricks.

The color of the gold brick is beautiful, not to mention how bright the yellow, orange and orange colors are. But these things occupy the tombs of the ancestors, and they have been worshiped by their incense for many years, so he asks if he is sarcastic about this matter? Poke the heart or not?

"My mother, the one who killed a thousand knives turned his mind to your old man's corpse? Mother, where are you, where are your bones? ”

Suddenly there was a sound of crying among the people not far away, and after a while, I saw that there were more people crying, and most of them were sad and angry, and their eyes were full of tears.

Now everyone knows what the truth is. There are anxious villagers, and they can't care about anything at this time. They ran to a nearby house in a panic, grabbed a shovel or other things, and ran over to the grave of their father or grandmother.

More and more people took action, the men's faces were hideous, the old people shrunk in anger, the women were scolding, and they had to support the crumbling mother-in-law, and tears of resentment flowed from their eyes.
