"I was about to talk about it. The house at number 117 was originally a private house, and in the late sixties and early seventies, the owner handed over the house to the government, and later it became the house of the district housing management office. ”

"Because the house is too old and there are too many termites, I used to live in many homes, but they didn't live for long. These people really didn't have a house to live in, so they had been making do with No. 117 for a while, and the inside of the doors, windows, pillars and beams was almost hollowed out by termites. The ears are smart, and when you sleep at night, you can hear the sound of termites gnawing on wood. ”

"So, once some families find a house, they move out very quickly."

"What is the original owner's last name?"

"The original owner's surname is Zhu, and I heard the old man in Huaigu Village say that the surname Zhu has lived here for many generations. Some people also say that the ancestor surnamed Zhu was a mausoleum keeper. ”

"Tomb keeper?" Ling Hu Yunfei suddenly became interested.

"Yes, a lot of people say that."

"Since you're a mausoleum keeper, why don't you keep guarding it?" Ma Jianping Road.

"For more than 300 years, it is not easy to keep a few generations, and it is even more difficult to say for future generations. People have to live! Who will pay the descendants to guard the mausoleum? ”

"Where did the Zhu family go?" Zhao Zimeng said.

"I went to Hong Kong."

"If you can go to Hong Kong, the Zhu family is definitely not an ordinary family." Xiang Daimo said.

The further the car goes, the more people there are on the road.

Finally, the people sitting in the car saw a large number of people crushed by the black, and in the crowd, there was also an excavator and a bulldozer, and the excavator and bulldozer were full of people.

Some of the walls that had been bulldozed more than half were squatting, sitting, and riding. There are also quite a few people on the tree that have not had time to deal with it.

The scene was crowded.

The jeep stopped in front of a pile of rubble.

Ling Hu Yunfei and Xiang Daimo opened the car door and rushed out of the passenger cab; Zhao Zimeng and others got out of the car one after another, Ma Jianping and Xiao Luhan each carried a criminal investigation box in their hands and followed behind, and Lin Di had a camera hanging around his neck.

At this time, everyone noticed that the scene of the crime, that is, No. 117, was located on a gentle slope on the south side of the north.

The house is located at the foot of the hill, and its terrain is higher than all the houses in the back village of Huaigu Village, and the house at No. 117 has been completely torn down, leaving only a few low walls, and the foundation of the courtyard wall - behind the No. 117 courtyard is a small hill.

The hills are covered with dense bamboo forests and woods, interspersed with dozens of tall holly and camphor trees, so the outline of the hill is not visible. However, judging from the canopy of holly and camphor trees and the outline of the bamboo forest, the hill should be round - because the line outlined by the canopy of holly and camphor trees is an arc.

Could it be that the tomb is underneath the hill behind Courtyard 117?

Zhao Zimeng was secretly wondering in his heart at that time: The entrance of the robbery cave is under No. 117, where can the tomb be far away?

Since No. 117 used to be the house where the mausoleum keepers lived, the house they lived in would definitely not be very far from the ancient tomb.

If it is too far away, the amount of earth to dig the hole will be very large, and the tomb robber will not be so stupid as to spend a lot of time digging the hole.

Qin Dazhao is right, judging from the situation at the scene, the problem of termite erosion in the back village of Huaigu Village is very serious.

There are some beams, pillars, hills, rows, rafters, doors and windows everywhere on the roadside, and these woods have dense sesame grains of large holes, and some of the holes have winged termites crawling out, and some of the wood has been hollowed out by termites.

The crowd gathered.

"Captain Zhao, Director Zhang is here." Qin Da summoned him.

A person came from the front, and this person was Director Zhang.

Director Zhang held the police hat in his hand, the police uniform was open, there were some fine beads of sweat on his forehead, and the scattered hair on the receding hairline was wet and sticky to his head.

Director Zhang's age is about 55 years old, and he has worked in the Yuanxianqiao Police Station for more than 20 years, and has served as the director for more than 10 years. He was very familiar with the situation in the jurisdiction, which could also be seen from Qin Dazhao's words just now.

Zhao Zimeng strode forward, and held Director Zhang's hand tightly: "Director Zhang, it's hard work." ”

"Captain Zhao, I didn't expect you to come so quickly." Director Zhang is a person who doesn't like to gossip and polite words, and is very practical, "I sent someone to invite Professor Le and Professor Nie as well." ”

"Great, we might have some questions for the two professors." Zhao Zimeng said with a smile.

"Go, I'll lead you there."

The crowd got out of the way.

Director Zhang led everyone across the cordon and entered the scene.

A cordon was drawn around the scene, and the cordon encompassed almost the entire No. 117.

The crowd stood outside the cordon, and several policemen stood inside the cordon to maintain order.

Judging from the remaining wall base, No. 117 is indeed a large courtyard, which is a standard courtyard house, and it is rare to see such a courtyard house in the south.

No. 117 sits north and faces south, with one house in front and back, three main rooms, and two wings in the east and west.

The courtyard door is opened in the middle of the first entrance, and the entrance door is the first entrance hall, on both sides is the east house and the west house, and the thief hole is in the second east room, and the specific location is under the bed.

Most people put their beds on the diagonal of the door.

Seeing Zhao Zimeng and his entourage walking into the cordon, several people who were originally squatting and standing near the thief cave greeted them, among these people, there were two old men with gray temples, and one of the old men had a pair of thick glasses on the bridge of his nose.

There were two people wearing hard hats, and the other few people should be the neighbors of No. 117 that Qin Dazhao said.

Director Zhang led Zhao Zimeng to a few people: "Captain Zhao, this is Professor Le, this is Professor Nie, this is Manager Feng, and this is Captain Xiao." These three are the neighbors of No. 117. ”

The one wearing the glasses was Professor Jin.

After a few polite greetings, the group immediately got to the point.

At this time, Ling Hu Yunfei, Xiang Daimo, Xiao Luhan, Ma Jianping and Lin Di had already put into work: Ling Hu Yunfei and Xiang Daimo were responsible for the autopsy, Lin Di was responsible for taking pictures, and Ma Jianping and Xiao Luhan were responsible for investigating the scene and extracting evidence.

"Professor Le, Professor Nie, tell Captain Zhao about the situation." Director Zhang said.

"Captain Zhao, here's the situation, this lantern is a horse lantern for tomb robbers, you see-" Professor Le picked up a horse lantern from the ground that was no longer deformed by glass—there was some broken glass on the ground.

There are also some pottery shards and blue and white porcelain shards on the ground.

Zhao Zimeng took the horse lantern, Professor Le is right, this horse lantern is indeed different from the ordinary horse lantern, it is smaller than the ordinary horse lantern, the groove of the glass cover of the general horse lantern is garden, and the groove of the glass cover of this horse lantern is square.

"Two professors, what period are these pottery shards and blue and white porcelain shards?"

"We were about to tell Captain Zhao about this, and Professor Nie and I agreed that these blue and white porcelain pieces are blue and white porcelain from the Yuan Dynasty, and judging by the patterns on these porcelain pieces, they must be blue and white plum vases of the Yuan Dynasty."

"The rift and the fracture are new, and the tomb robber must have accidentally broken it when he took the blue and white plum vase out of the hole, which is a pity! This is a priceless treasure! ”

"Yes! According to the patterns on these porcelain tiles, it can be seen that this blue and white plum vase depicts the allusion of 'Xiao He chasing Han Xin under the moon'. ”

Professor Nie squatted down and pointed to a few pieces of blue and white porcelain pieces spliced together, "As for these pottery pieces, they should be from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, not like the burial goods in the tomb, and it is very likely that the tomb robbers dug them up when they were digging holes." ”

Professor Le took out a round paper bag from his handbag, carefully opened it, and when the paper bag was opened, some brown chips fell from it, and inside the paper bag was a broken round object, the round object was brown and green, and it was very mottled.

"Professor Le, what is this?"

"This is a bronze mirror," Professor Le reversed, "This is what we found in the soil next to the entrance to the cave, and the tomb robbers abandoned it when they saw that it was rusted and unrecognizable." Professor Jin sighed, a look of distress.

Zhao Zimeng noticed some clear patterns on the bronze mirror, and the position of the patterns was in the middle and edge of the bronze mirror.

"Captain Zhao, this is the most representative bronze mirror in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, and there are the words 'Zhengde' on it.

'Zhengde' is the name of the tenth emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Houzhao. Just now, we have seen the direction of the robbery cave, the robbery cave points directly to the back mountain, and the ancient tomb should be under this bamboo forest and woods. ”

"Two professors, you came in a timely manner, and I may have to ask you some questions during the investigation."

"According to the current situation, the contents of the tomb have been looted by tomb robbers. It's a shame. Professor Nie said.

"Captain Zhao, rest assured, we will always stay here during your investigation, and we also hope to find something valuable at the scene, in a hurry, the tomb robbers may leave something behind." Professor Le said.

"Lao Le, don't be too optimistic, judging from the way the tomb robbers rob the tomb and the style of acting, they are calm, and the things in the tomb will definitely be cleaned up." Professor Nie showed an even more distressed expression.

"Yes! That's what I'm worried about. Captain Zhao, we will definitely cooperate with your work, except for now, no matter what questions you have in the future, just ask. ”

Lin Di walked up to Zhao Zimengde and handed a pair of gloves and a mask to Zhao Zimeng's hand.

The top priority is to conduct an autopsy and inspect the scene.

Zhao Zimeng put on a mask and gloves neatly and walked to the entrance of the cave.

Linghu Yunfei and Xiang Daimo were cleaning up the dirt and bricks near the entrance of the cave.

The widest part of the cave entrance is about one meter, the narrowest part is about sixty centimeters, and the traces left by the shovel on the cave wall can still be seen at the east and west ends of the widest part of the cave entrance.
