Ah Gui muttered and said, "The problem is, there is nothing in that place, it's the forest, and you can't see anything when you go." β
The fat man immediately said to him, "It's better to step on it." β
Ah Gui shook his head with a wry smile and sighed: "That road is really difficult to walk, you people in the city don't know what's going on, and you like to spend money to buy sin." As he spoke, he suddenly thought of something and asked, "By the way, what are you asking about?" Aren't you reselling artifacts? β
The fat man drank too much and scolded: "What are you reselling cultural relics, you are so earthy, tell you, in fact, we are pouring-"
Wu Xie hurriedly poked him, and then said: "It's a tour guide, there is a group to come in, there is no place to accompany here, let's inquire first, looking for attractions." β
Ah Gui was very interested when he heard it: "Okay, someone brought me to help you arrange it, there are many interesting places here." It's not fun in the mountains, just go by yourself, the guests won't like it. β
Wu Xie nodded and smiled in agreement, secretly scolding the fat man in his heart. The fat man also knew that he had lost his words, and touched the bridge of his nose in embarrassment.
A Ning glanced at Wu Xie and smiled silently, Wu Xie is sometimes quite shrewd.
Mengli and the little brother glanced at each other, and probably understood what the other party meantβfortunately, Wu Xie reacted quickly.
Wu Xie also wanted to ask Ah Gui some details, but he said that he really didn't remember, and it could be seen that he might have gone out to work for a long time, and he didn't know much about the past of the village. He had no choice but to wait for the others to inquire tomorrow. That's it.
Then a few people sat outside in the open air to enjoy the shade and continued to discuss some details. To be precise, it was Mengli and the little brother who were talking about some things on the side, Wu Xie and the fat man discussed the details, and A-Ning said: I'll just listen to you.
The fat man saw Agui return to the room, and immediately lowered his voice and said: "His mother's group of archaeological teams are elusive, they don't see anyone during the day, and they took so many things away before leaving, obviously there is an ancient tomb in the generation of Sheephorn Mountain, this is really a blind cat encountering a dead mouse, we traveled here, but we got this news, how about it, two?" Should we conform to the will of heaven and easily bring down this bucket? β
Wu Xie disagreed, shook his head and said: "I knew that you definitely had to mention this, there is an ancient tomb in that mountain, now it is just your speculation, you will not know until you get there to see it on the spot." And the ancient tombs that those people entered, every one of them was weird and abnormal, and I really didn't want to go in. β
"It's going to be okay this time, didn't you see that they all came out safely?" The fat man said, "And I brought several boxes of bright utensils, damn it, how much is it worth." β
"It's also strange to say, listening to Agui's statement, this group of people obviously did not adopt the working method of the archaeological team to uncover the top, it seems that they also went down to the cave, which is really rare." Wu Xiedao, if he wasn't sure that these people were from a government background, he would definitely think that they were professional tomb robbers disguised as members of the archaeological team.
"This is your loneliness, when the conditions are not ripe, the archaeological team will also use the cave to rescue some cultural relics. In my opinion, it may be that the scale of this ancient tomb is quite large, and it is impossible to excavate it under the conditions of the previous thinking at that time. The fat man said, saliva came down, "Didn't the little sister say that the Vietnamese are still in the mountains, I think they may have heard about this here, looking for this ancient tomb." Even if we don't do it for money, we can't give this cheap to those Vietnamese who can't even use the Luoyang shovel. β
Wu Xie sighed, and said in his heart: "I really don't want to go to the ground anymore, even if I have Mengli and my little brother to protect me, I won't listen to what you say." "However, if there is really an ancient tomb there, then it must be related to what the archaeological team is tracking, and it seems unwilling not to go in. It's a bit tricky.
The fat man continued to nag in Wu Xie's ear, and Wu Xie made a delaying tactic to the fat man, telling him not to get excited, they went to the field two days later to see it, even if there is really an ancient tomb, the place is so big, it may not be able to find it. But if he really finds it, he wants to go down, and they will help him, so he is willing to give up. But he couldn't press it anymore, and as soon as Agui came back, he immediately pulled Agui to ask questions.
Wu Xie was afraid that he would show his stuff, but his heart was very chaotic, so he was in no mood to care about this, so he let him go. Leaning against the pillars, looking at the moon, I wondered what to do.
Ah Ning sat beside him, coughed lightly, and when she saw Wu Xie looking at her, she said: "Wu Xie, you don't have to think too much, there are some things that even if you want to avoid them, it will still happen, since we have to go through it in the end, then we just need to be ourselves......"
"I know," Wu Xie sighed, "but I've been through so much, sometimes I wonder how good it would be if none of this happened, and I was still living my own life comfortably as my own little boss......" he said, his eyes showing a hint of confusion
"If that were the case, you wouldn't have met us." A-Ning smiled at him, as if to soothe his uneasiness.
"yes......"
There was no more word between the two, just sat quietly and looked at the stars in the sky.
In a trance, Wu Xie suddenly noticed that on the other side, in the window of Agui's own wooden building, there seemed to be a person looking at them, and there was no light on there, only a vague strange shadow could be seen.
Wu Xie rubbed his eyes, and found that the shadow, the shoulders were completely collapsed, just like the shadow behind the screen on the photo that Brother Chu gave him.
The summer mountain wind blew through the lamp hanging in front of the house, the bulb shook with a large number of insects around, the light and shadow were mottled, Wu Xie thought he was wrong at first, but after the wind, the shadow was still there.
He looked at it, and he didn't feel anything at first, but the more he looked, his back became cold, could it be that someone in Agui's family hanged himself?
So I couldn't hold back the feeling of trance and sat up, rubbed my eyes and looked carefully.
On another look, the shadow was gone, and it was pitch black behind the window, and there was nothing.
Is it a delusion? Wu Xie frowned vigorously.
Mengli and the little brother naturally noticed the situation on Wu Xie's side, the little brother looked at the shadow that disappeared behind the window, frowned, and just wanted to chase after him, but was grabbed by Mengli's wrist. Mengli shook her head at him: "Don't go." β
The little brother thought about it and nodded, at this time, catching up will only cause trouble and affect their later affairs.
"What's wrong?" A-Ning asked suspiciously.
"Did you just see the shadow behind the window of that wooden building?" Wu Xie asked, a little chill in his back.
A-Ning frowned and replied, "...... No. β
Wu Xie hurriedly asked Ah Gui, "Who lives behind that room?" β
Agui looked at it and said, "It's my son." β
"Oh." Wu Xie flashed in his mind, but nothing flashed, he only felt dizzy again, and said in his heart: "That must be his son watching here, I drank too much, and the things I saw were not normal." β
It was getting late, so Agui looked at his house and said he wanted to go back to rest.
The fat man paid for the message of 30 thousand words, greeted him, and also entered the house.
When he entered the house, the fat man was depressed: "I rely on just one or two sentences, this turtle son can actually tell me 300 yuan, the wisdom of the working people is really endless." β
Wu Xie said: "Who told you to charge a lot of money, showing your wealth in the poor countryside is the most unruly behavior, you still regret it, there is no rude among the unruling." β
The fat man muttered a few words, saying that Wu Xie was a fake Taoist, a hypocrite, and Wu Xie didn't pay attention to him, and the little brother had already fallen asleep.
Mengli and Aning are in the room next to them.
"Do you like Wu Xie?" Mengli looked at A-Ning with a playful expression.
A-Ning didn't hide it, and shrugged his shoulders: "I feel a little bit, I don't have time to fall in love when I am a mercenary, and I finally have someone I like, of course I can't let it go." β
Sure enough, I like A-Ning's straight nature, Mengli smiled: "Then you have to come on!" β¦β¦ Good night! β
"Good night!"
A good night's sleep.
