There is more than one stone in the soil, and these stones are stacked together, and there is a binder between the gaps, and this binder is called Sanhe soil.

In the past, I listened to people bragging about the mountains at Qikong Bridge, and I heard a lot of fragmented stories, which was actually a way to broaden my horizons and increase my knowledge. In the ancient line, there are many people who have done the work of digging graves, there is a kind of tomb, which is very difficult to do, everyone knows where the tomb is, but they just can't start. Because when this kind of tomb is built, it is used in triple soil.

There are many recipes for Sanhe soil, the most famous of which is a mixture of sand and loess with egg white. Once such a triple soil is solidified and dry, it is stronger than the cement I don't know how many times, and the big hammer at the mouth of the bowl is smashed on the solidified triple soil, which is just a white mark.

This kind of triple soil mixed with egg whites looks like nothing, but it is actually very luxurious. When An Dehai, the great eunuch at the end of the Qing Dynasty, was in power, he built a tomb for his mother, used all the Sanhe soil, and bought all the eggs from the nearby ten miles and eight towns. The egg white is made into Sanhe soil, and the egg yolk is thrown away, and the locals pick up the egg yolk to eat, and finally they all want to vomit. A grave was built, and I don't know that tens of thousands of eggs were used. Later, the Manchu Dynasty fell, several waves of tomb robbers tried to rob the tomb, but they could not penetrate the hole, and it is said that in the end, a warlord's troops used mountain artillery to blast the tomb open.

And the stones I dug out of the soil were filled with egg white mixed with triple soil between the cracks. Sanhe soil is 100% man-made traces, and in this forbidden land-like deep mountains, man-made traces are the most noteworthy targets.

I hurriedly called Lao Wang up, and the two of them slowly dug along this small layer of soil, and finally dug out twenty or thirty stones that were cemented together by the triple soil. The stones are large and small, and because they are filled with triple soil, they almost become a whole.

Behind the stones, there must be something. And it's something that can't be taken away, because it can't be taken away, and I don't want to be discovered or occupied by others, so I used these stones filled with Sanhe soil to block it.

"What's going on?" Lao Wang looked at the stones: "Isn't it okay to smash the stones apart?" ”

I was excited, and Lao Wang's words woke me up. How to smash the stones cemented together by the triple soil? I'm afraid I won't be able to break the arms of the two of them.

But if you find this clue, you must not give up. I thought that even if I hit it slowly with a hammer or chisel, I would have to break the stone away.

We didn't have the right tools with us, and shovels and drills didn't work at all. I had no choice but to go down the mountain to find tools.

Lao Wang didn't want to toss back and forth, but I also felt that I had found this place, so I had to have someone to guard it, so I let Lao Wang stay and go down the mountain by himself.

To save some time, I went down the mountain. I didn't want to go to the village to make a show of myself, and the tools in the village weren't necessarily suitable, so I drove to the town and bought a big bag of messy tools.

I won't say much about the process in the middle, anyway, I am tired enough to choke back and forth. After I rushed back, I started with Lao Wang. There are so many stones, you can only knock them slowly and little by little. We barely stopped, we were so tired that we would sleep for a while, and we knocked on this place for three days before we knocked out a hole of about 30 centimeters.

In fact, when the stones had just been knocked open a gap, I knew that what the stones were sealing was a hole. No one knew what the hole was for, it was supposed to be very large, but it was half buried, and when you looked into it from the outside, it was black and rumbling, and you could only smell a faint musty smell.

The thirty-centimeter hole can't get in, so the two of us can only continue to work. However, once the hole is opened, it is easier to widen. It took us about five days to widen the hole enough to barely fit a single person.

I explained to Lao Wang and asked him to wait outside. Inside the hole sealed by the stone, I don't know what the situation is, if I put it in the past, I would definitely think twice, however, people are growing up in the grinding, there is the experience of Danmeng and the old road of the Huyang River, my courage is obviously much stronger than before, streamlined the equipment and belongings, without too much hesitation, I drilled into the hole that was knocked open.

The hole behind the stone was indeed half buried, and as soon as I got into it, I could see that it was a hole dug by man. After taking a few steps ahead, the cave divides into several branches, each of which is connected to several small spaces of different sizes. Suddenly, the terrain is quite complicated, but if you look at it again, you will find that in fact, the overall structure of the cave is still relatively simple, although there are many forks, but the connected space area is limited, and it is definitely not the kind of spider web structure that extends in all directions, so you don't have to worry about getting lost at all.

There must have been people here, leaving some mess behind, and in front of the two small caves, which looked like caves, I saw that there was still a coarse cloth curtain hanging at the entrance of the cave, and in the caves lay a heavy and rough wooden bed. In addition to this, there are two dusty glass bottles on the floor, and a rectangular enamel tray that was used in the former hospital.

I was confused and didn't know what this hole was for. I didn't dare to go too deep, so I looked at the side again, and each small hole was like a separate room, with some miscellaneous items thrown in it.

From these traces, it can be seen that there were many people and things in this place before, but then everyone left, and the things that should be moved were also moved, leaving only some useless bits and pieces occasionally.

Among the miscellaneous items were discolored armbands embroidered with red crosses, very old-fashioned ampoughts, and even, I saw an old scalpel with a broken blade.

I frowned and began to ponder, from the analysis of these miscellaneous things, I guess it is at least a few decades old. Houshan here in the Anti-Japanese War and liberation have been fought, this hill is located in a very critical position, easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as you hold the sheep intestine trail up the mountain, it is estimated that no one can get by.

I wondered if this was a very rudimentary field hospital during the war, where wounded soldiers had to receive initial treatment before they could be transferred to the rear.

When the whole country is liberated, the field hospital located in the deep mountains will definitely be useless and completely abandoned.

But one thing is for sure, when the field hospital was abandoned, the entrance to the cave would not have been closed with triple earth like this. Most of the people who know and can use Sanhe soil are probably related to the ancient line.

The cave was very quiet, I walked through about five or six "caves" in a row, one of which was relatively large, but empty, there was nothing, I was thinking of looking elsewhere, but at a glance, I accidentally saw the ground of this cave, as if something was wrong.

The floor of this cave has obviously been turned, although the soil layer has been trampled flat, and there is a layer of dust, but I can still distinguish the traces of the turning.

I hung a small shovel with it, picked it up and gently stuck it into the soil. Sure enough, the soil layer is very empty, and if it has not been turned, then it will definitely not be so empty.

This shows that the underground of this cave has either been dug out or buried, and there are only two possibilities.

I dug a few times, but I didn't find anything. Using the flashlight to shine back and forth, I can see that the area that has been turned is about ten square meters, and if I flip it again, I guess it will waste a lot of time. Before coming to Houshan, I didn't expect to be delayed for several days, and if it was delayed any longer, Lao Wang would definitely complain.

While......

Just as I was hesitating whether to go back and talk to Lao Wang, the shovel touched something in the soil. I quickly pulled it twice, and suddenly, a black whining barrel appeared in front of me.

I followed the barrel and dug out the whole gun. Originally, I thought it was an abandoned temporary field hospital, and there was a possibility that a gun would be left behind, but when the gun was dug up, my judgment was overturned.

I know this kind of gun, in our country, this gun is called the rabbit gun, it is a kind of homemade folk firearm, loaded with homemade gunpowder and iron sand, because there is no rifling, and to ensure a certain range, so the barrel is very long, and the whole gun stands taller than me.

When I was a child, whenever I went back to the village, I would often see people with these homemade rabbit guns going hunting in the wild. Such a gun has limited power and is mainly used to fight rabbits, so it is called a rabbit gun.

At first, I couldn't tell how I left a rabbit gun in this closed abandoned field hospital, but in the blink of an eye, a cold sweat suddenly broke out on my head.

I remembered the dream I had a few days ago when I was staying overnight in the gangue kiln.

The fourth uncle in the dream said that the four people who burned the gangue in the gangue kiln were because they were idle and had nothing to do, so they went to fight rabbits with rabbit guns, and finally failed to come back and were killed.

Moreover, the fourth uncle also said that after the four people who burned the gangue were killed, they were buried on the spot. I can't judge the truth of things by a rabbit gun, but my heart is very empty, and I have an indescribable horror.

I wasn't frightened by what I saw, it was the dream I had that scared me.

Could it be that what I am experiencing now was revealed in a dream a few days ago? How could there be such a coincidental and strange dream in the world.

I took a breath and thought to myself that if no hard evidence was found, then everything was just speculation.

I hurried along the same path to the entrance of the cave, and explained to Lao Wang, I told him that I had to go in and dig something, it might take a long time, and told him to wait patiently outside and not to move around.

"Digging again? You haven't knocked enough stones these days? ”

My heart was in a mess, I didn't care about Lao Wang, and I ran back in a hurry.

As soon as I came back, I grabbed my shovel and began to dig down, I had to see what was buried under this layer of soil.
