After losing the job opportunity in the supermarket, the first thing Du Juan said when he came home was to complain to him, complaining that he was too impulsive. At that time, he shouldn't have slapped the manager in the face of his will, although Cuckoo didn't have a good impression of the fat pig manager.

Wei Fang could only promise again and again that he would definitely find a better job than a cashier.

And the way he said it was not in himself, but in the former friend of his father.

The man in sunglasses who confronted the "eyes", because of such a trivial matter as finding a job, it seems that it is a little difficult to trouble the other party. However, he had no choice but to make a promise to the cuckoo, so he had to go to the abandoned mine to find the other party.

I don't know if he's there?

The bus line to the mine was the same as usual, there was not much traffic, and when it arrived at the Pingyang Cave site, only Wei Fang and the driver were left, and this station was equivalent to a terminal in disguise.

When the driver saw Wei Fang alone, he accosted: "Little brother, you won't go to Pingyang Cave, right?" ”

He joked: "Or, I'm bored and want to take my bus for a day trip." ”

"Oh, I have a friend who lives in Pingyang Cave, I'm going to see him."

"Pingyang Cave ......"

The driver's expression was a little surprised, and he turned his head to look at Wei Fang while there was no one in front of him.

"What's wrong?"

Wei Flais asked.

"Oh...... It's just that some people can't see it, and the people who live in Pingyang Cave now are all fifty or sixty years old, and they are basically people of that generation who go to visit friends, and it is rare to see you as young. ”

The driver said casually: "The people who live over there are all old men who are half buried in the soil, who are you looking for?" ”

"A friend, his grandfather lived there."

Wei Feng opened his mouth, he just made up a seemingly reasonable reason based on the information in the driver's mouth.

The driver was already suspicious, and as far as he knew, the people in that place were like they had been cursed with a vicious curse. All those who managed to get out of that place would eventually return to the land where they grew up in the barren land for various reasons.

All the people who took his bus and got off at this stop had a dead air on their faces—it was the gray that appeared after all the silence, like some generations of Lao Tzu who had suffered all his life, had become accustomed and numb, and had seen everything openly.

He looked at Wei Flai's expression, and there was no such dilapidated grayness. Although he looked a little haggard, he clearly exuded the vigor of a young man, and he was not the same person as those who had to return to that land. He remembered that Wei Flail also got off at Pingyang Cave last time, and he also knew that some young people like to find novelty and excitement, and they may go to that place to have a picnic or something. But that place, as long as you go to it once, anyone with a normal mind will not go a second time.

Through the conversation with Wei Flai, he could roughly judge that Wei Flai's mind was quite normal.

What can such a normal person do when he runs to that hellish place?

"Where does your friend still live?"

The driver is deliberately testing Wei Flai, if he really knows a friend, the "yet" in this sentence is completely redundant, the people in that place, birth, old age, sickness and death are limited to that land, and sometimes it may be that the cemetery on the top of a hill belongs to a family.

"He doesn't live there now, he is going back to his hometown to see his grandparents this time, I am purely curious, accompany him to experience farm life, he said that he will cook food for me himself."

Wei Fang deliberately emphasized in his words that he had an iron relationship with that "friend".

The driver knew that he couldn't believe a word of the words that came out of Wei Fang's mouth, he had lived to this age, and he had seen many people who wanted to break this Möbius ring tragedy, but none of them hit a stone with an egg, and in the end there was no good end.

"Where are we stinky men going to cook?" The driver echoed Wei Fang's words: "Once my wife insisted on me cooking, I cooked a pot of 'charcoal' for them, and then she didn't ask me to cook." ”

"That's it, that's it, I'm afraid that the girl will poison the food and cause me to go to the hospital for a day trip, it seems that I have to be careful."

Wei Flais didn't see the driver's far-fetched look.

"Have you heard a story about a person there that has been passed down from generation to generation?"

"What's the story?"

Wei Feng was interested, and he especially liked to listen to the older generation tell about their generation, as well as folk tales with unique local characteristics. When he was living in college, his dormitory was filled with friends from all over the world, and he almost didn't pry all the stories out of his roommate's stomach.

"Do you know the origin of Pingyang Cave?"

The driver didn't say anything, Wei Feng really didn't think about this problem, he never paid much attention to the place name. For him, it's just convenient to distinguish the name of the site.

The driver doesn't care if Wei Flail really doesn't know, or if he is pretending to be stupid.

"In the area of Pingyang Cave, the people who live there know a story about their ancestors."

"Once upon a time, there was a mighty general who fought for the emperor for many years, and he refused all the emperor's rewards without seeking merit or reward. He only has the people and the court in his heart, and every child can say a few words about his story. As the saying goes, the merit is high and the lord is great. He thought in his heart that this great general had been fighting for so many years, fighting bloodily on the battlefield, being born and dying, and not seeking fame, fortune and gold and silver at all, which was very strange. ”

Later, he pondered it himself, and thought of a possibility, which frightened him into insomnia for three days and three nights, and as soon as he closed his eyes, he saw the scene of the general taking his sword and taking the head of his neck.

"Guess what, this emperor has in mind?"

"Hmm...... This emperor is a faint monarch and has done a lot of heinous things with public resentment? ”

Wei Flail said the conjecture in his heart.

"It's not."

The driver continued to tell that story.

"In fact, the emperor is a Ming monarch, although he has not done the earth-shattering and weeping ghosts and gods that have never been seen before or since, but from the clever name, strict taxes and miscellaneous taxes, the common people can also be said to have no worries about food and clothing under his governance."

"Then why does he think the general wants to kill him?"

"The human heart is a kind of unpredictable thing, and sometimes the more you don't ask for it, the more others think you want something."

"It is precisely because the great general has no desires and desires that the emperor will suspect that he has great plans and become more and more jealous of him. Think about it, if you were that emperor, with such a famous general under him, who was expanding the territory of the country every year, and who had a growing prestige in the army, and who was not at all interested in your reward, could you not think much about it when you sat in that position? ”

Wei Flails nodded.

Therefore, the emperor thought about it and summoned the general to the front of the temple. He said to the general, Aiqing, you have been fighting abroad for many years, fighting for me in the south and in the north, I really don't want to go, so I want you to spend your old age in peace, what do you think? ”

"This general is not a fool, he listens to the emperor's words, he knows that the emperor thinks he is in the way, for fear that he will suppress power and seek to seize the throne, although he does not have this idea in his heart, but there is no basis for empty words, and the emperor will not believe his words, and with the 100,000 army led by his subordinates, he does have the ability to overthrow the government and the opposition."

"Because the generals led by the general fought all the battles, and they had already established an inviolable image in the hearts of the barbarians in the Quartet, so the general pushed the boat down the river and took the opportunity to return to his hometown and return the tiger talisman to the emperor."

"The emperor was actually weak in his heart, and he was afraid that the general would be dissatisfied with him in his heart, so he rewarded the general with a year's income from the treasury at that time, and gave the general another 10,000 taels of gold and 10,000 hectares of fertile land."

"Even so, the emperor was still not at ease, so he invited Fang Shi again, Fang Shi is a strange person like a Taoist priest in Youfang, and they usually have one or two superhuman skills."

"Fang Shi told the emperor that the evil qi on this great general's body is condensed and solid, like a tiger out of the cage, and he needs to find a place to dissipate his sharp energy, otherwise there will be a bloody disaster for the country and the people."

"It just so happens that near the good field that the emperor rewarded the general, there is a place called Xiangyanggang, this emperor does not do two things, and finds someone to spend great efforts to level the mountains near Xiangyanggang, and acts in the name of the general, one to damage the prestige of the general in the hearts of the people, and the other to create an isolated feng shui trend, and rename this place Pingyang Cave."

"The tiger fell in Pingyang and was bullied by dogs, and the emperor thought that the tiger fell in Pingyang and was not safe, so he added another hole to this place, and wanted to kill the fierce beast of the general in this place."

"The general was obedient to everything the emperor had arranged, but the emperor still felt that he was unstable in that position, and in the third year of the general's return to his hometown, he sent assassins to assassinate the general, and the general was unparalleled in martial arts, and caught the assassin on the spot on the night of the assassin attack, and those assassins were obviously not the general's opponents compared to the battlefield tearing up."

The general pressed the Assassins to tell them to tell them who were behind the scenes, and those Assassins were royal trained dead soldiers, who had been captured alive and had bitten the poison hidden in their teeth and bled to death. But these were not difficult for the general, and he still found clues through the blades used by the assassins. ”

"It turns out that the weapons used by those assassins are all royal royal weapons. The general suddenly knew the emperor's murderous intentions, the so-called tiger is not harmful, people are harmful to the tiger, the general knows that he has become a heart disease in the emperor's heart that has to be removed, and he himself is a loyal and dutiful person, so he later declared that he was seriously ill and closed his door, and hired people to build a mausoleum, and placed the gold and silver treasures rewarded by the emperor in the tomb together. ”

"The general had already entrusted his own affairs, and on the day the mausoleum was completed, he hanged himself in front of his bed, and his body was sent to the mausoleum overnight."

The driver secretly looked at Wei Fang's expression, trying to see something on his face. But unfortunately he didn't find anything, and he said that the purpose of this was to test Wei Flails to see if he was the same as the gang a few days ago, all of whom were grave robbers digging people's graves.

A few days ago, a group of people carried large bags and small bags and got off the bus in Pingyang Cave, and they knew that the purpose was clear at a glance. And the driver smelled the strong smell of earth on their bodies, even the farmers who often went to the field did not have such a heavy smell of mud on their bodies. Only those "dirt rats" (tomb robbers) have this smell. People of the older generation say that it is because they often deal with corpses, and evil energy enters the body, resulting in a change in body odor.

The driver does not know the purpose of Wei Flail for the time being, but it cannot be ruled out that Wei Flail is hiding too well.

He hesitated to call the police, stealing and selling cultural relics was a crime, and he wondered whether to be a good citizen with due diligence.
