The old secretary was silent for a while, he put the list away, and shouted: "Red, prepare mattresses for a few gentlemen, and rest late." ”

I was a little surprised when I heard it, this old secretary is a capable person, I can know from the conversation that he is a very strong person, thinking that he can do anything, so I believe that he will definitely bet with me, because he is a good and strong person, but he made me a little wrong, because he did not bet with me, such a strong person, suddenly changed his personality. Why is that?

I can't figure it out, maybe it has something to do with his weak heart, or maybe he knows how his nephew became what he is now.

I went into the side room with Wang Hong, Yang Hong made a bed for us, this little girl is diligent and very smart, so when Wang Hong was making the bed, she also told Yang Hong some things that were not nutritious, that is, to ask Yang Hong how old she was, whether there were people she liked, anyway, men and women and the like.

The little girl who made the family was very embarrassed, I didn't dare to look up at people when I saw that Yang Hong was said, so I kicked Wang Hong and asked him to shut his mouth.

It is not easy for the little girl to be empty, of course, she quickly escaped, Wang Hong was reluctant to lie at the door and looked at it a few times, I said: "You have married a daughter-in-law and given birth to a baby, and you are still worried about other little girls?" ”

Wang Hong turned around and lay on the bed. He said to me, "Nothing to do, don't tease the little girl's fun?" ”

I didn't pay attention to Wang Hong, so I got ready to go to bed, and when I went to find Yan Liu and them tomorrow, Wang Hong kicked me and asked me: "Hu San, the old man said that this place is full of ancient tombs." There are countless treasures in it, if we do a penny, we won't have to worry about eating and drinking for the rest of our lives. ”

I smiled and said, "I don't take money from dead people." ”

Wang Hong was very angry, grabbed me, and said to me: "Don't pretend to be a good person, save my brother, I really can't open the pot, the dead man's money is buried in the ground, it's better to take it out and give it to grandpa, you can do it, help my brother order a grave, Lao Tzu won't go down and take it more, just enough to spend." ”

I ignored Wang Hong, squinted and slept, no matter what he said, I didn't bother to talk to him.

Squinted and slept all night, when I got up the next day, Yang Hong prepared breakfast, the old secretary had already left, maybe I went to buy things, I saw that Yang Hong also made some food preparations to take away, so I asked: "You also want to go to the cemetery?" ”

Yang Hong said: "Well, send food to my mother, the people of the archaeological team hired the labor force of our village to dig the soil, twenty yuan a day, my mother went, I didn't come back last night, I have to send food in the morning." ”

I listened and quickly took a few bites, ate the rice, and when I turned around, I saw Yang Hong carrying the basket and taking the donkey cart, and I followed, and Yang Hong didn't ask much.

After walking for more than an hour, we arrived at the place, which was thirty miles away, and as soon as I arrived at the place, I saw many people sitting on the handles of shovels, surrounding a person on the ground, and I looked at the man who was completely black, and there was a pungent smell, and I looked at a man who had been burned to death.

I glanced at Wang Hong, and Wang Hong whispered, "It's dead." Damn, I know, no wonder Yan Liu's dog day is asking you to come, he can't deal with it. ”

I didn't pay attention to Wang Hong, he didn't say that when he came, I looked at the dozen old farmers on the ground, and I asked, "Fellow." What about the foreman here? ”

A man in his forties pointed to the small thatched nunnery in front, very simple, I looked at it and knew that it was improvised, I and Wang Hong went towards the thatched hermitage, before entering, I looked at the feng shui of this place, the feng shui is very good, but I can't see any signs of a big tomb.

When I entered the hermitage, I saw more than a dozen people sitting around a table, and a few women were pouring tea for them, and Yang Hong also gave the meal to a middle-aged eldest sister, I knew that the eldest sister was his mother, I didn't say much, just glanced at it. At this time, another person stood up and yelled at me, "What are you doing? Didn't you ask you to wait outside? What are you doing here? Archaeological land, idlers are not allowed to enter, what is written outside, illiterate or what? ”

I listened to the fire in my heart, this person is in his thirties, with eyes, and looks like a gentleman, but why is his speech so rude, I said, "I'm looking for Wang Yun and Yan Liu." ”

The man stood up and pushed me out, and said to me, "The captain is still outside to investigate, and you have something to do outside." ”

After saying that, this person closed the door and blocked me and Wang Hong outside. Wang Hong looked at me dumbfounded, and said to me: "This shit, a slap can beat him to his knees and call him grandpa, what are you doing with me?" ”

Although I was angry in my heart, I didn't lose my temper, I looked around, and I said, "Let's go find Wang Yun and Yan Liu." ”

Wang Hong sat on the ground when she heard this, and said to me: "If I were you, if he didn't come to beg me, I would definitely not help him, mother, Lao Tzu is so easy to call?" ”

I was not in a hurry to leave, I sat on the ground, and I asked an old farmer next to me, "I said fellow." What's wrong with this person? Why did you die? ”

The fellow didn't pay attention to me, so I quickly took out a cigarette, lit it, and stuffed it into my hand, and then he looked at me lazily and said to me, "You are also here to work?" I advise you to go back, damn it. ”

When I heard this, I quickly beat the snake and put it on the stick, and I said, "Why don't you just dig up a dead man's soil, why are you going to die?" Can there be ghosts down there? ”

The old brother smiled and said to me: "It's more terrible than a ghost, this person is from our village, when I was digging the soil before, I don't know what, there was oil coming out of the soil, this oil is also very evil, I don't know what to burn, he will burn it at once, we will quickly take water and splash it, but the more it is splashed, the more the fire burns, this will not be burned to death." ”

I frowned when I heard this, this may be digging up an ambush fire, and the so-called "ambush fire" is able to "fly flames", which has the effect of burning grave robbers.

This kind of tomb is called "fire pit tomb", which is a kind of tomb unique to the southern region, and the reason for the fire of "fire pit tomb" may be due to the decomposition of organic matter buried in the tomb chamber to form a combustible gas, which is biogas, and the fire is caused by biogas.

This fire hole may have been man-made or naturally formed, as the cemetery contained the bodies of burial goods, which were in the process of decaying, in the absence of oxygen. A large amount of gas can be burned, and in the case of a particularly well sealed burial chamber, especially if the coffin is tightly sealed, the gas will accumulate in the coffin for a long time, and when the coffin is suddenly opened, if the biogas encounters an open flame, of course, it will be ignited.

This is what smelly people often call a fire hole. Although digging a fire cave is very dangerous, many people who eat the smell are very willing to touch the fire hole, and the appearance of the fire hole indicates that the tomb is well preserved.

But once the fire is burned, there is no salvation, because water cannot extinguish the flame of gas.

There was a fire hole in this place, which means that the tomb underneath has not been dug up, but they can't find the tomb.

I waited with Wang Hong for a while. Yan Liu and Wang Yun hadn't come back yet, so I was in a hurry, so I asked the fellow where the two of them were, and the villager told us that they were investigating in the woods.

Wang Hong was very angry when he heard this, and scolded Yan Liu for not being a thing, we were exposed to the wind and sun outside, and he Yan Liu was good, he actually went to inspect with Wang Yun in the grove and inspect his grandmother's legs, he must have done something bad.

I didn't pay attention to Wang Hong's complaints, so I asked him to go to the woods opposite, the woods are all miscellaneous trees, this place is different from our northeast, there are mountains everywhere. Build a mausoleum in the mountain, this place is a plain, the tomb is built on flat ground, and there is no mound of earth, you can't find the specific location of the tomb at all.

In ancient times, tombs and tombs were two different concepts, and tombs were called "tombs" when they dug holes to bury the dead and then filled in the soil.

The tomb is filled with soil on top of the tomb to form an arched mound. This is called a "grave".

In ancient times, people were tombs but not graves, and when people died, they dug a pit, buried them and filled in the soil, which was considered a burial. Later, people gradually felt the need to put a mark in front of the grave of their loved one, so that after a long time, future generations could still find his grave. Therefore, from the initial erection of a simple mark in front of the tomb, to the piling of tomb soil high, and then erecting a mark on or next to it.

Thus, there was the formation of the tomb.

Later, in order to maintain the existence of the cemetery for a longer time, people piled up a large amount of soil on the cemetery, and erected a strong stone tablet next to the soil, and engraved the names of the deceased and family members, so that future generations could find the graves of their ancestors at a glance.

Of course, the tombs of the ancient emperors did not want their own sealed mounds to fall, in order to keep the huge mounds for thousands of years without collapsing, they made the sealed mounds like a small mountain, so the graves encountered in such areas of the plains are called this heap and that heap.

We were walking, suddenly heard a movement in the forest, the forest in front of me is very dense, and it is all bushes, I looked at a bush behind there is actually movement, I asked Wang Hong to go over to see, Wang Hong didn't think much, there can't be any big beasts in this place.

But Wang Honggang wanted to pick up the leaves of the bushes. Suddenly saw a white knife against his chest, and the frightened Wang Hong scolded his mother.

I was also shocked when I looked at it, how could there be someone behind this? I watched the man slowly stand up and shouted at me, I didn't speak, I listened to someone behind him talking, for me: "Immediately person or limelight?" ”

As soon as I heard it was a black word, I knew in my heart who I had met. I said, "Eat a stinky dragnet, double flyer from all over the world, brother, are you from the mouth?" ”

"Flying from the sky!"

I breathed a sigh of relief when I heard it, Wang Hong estimated that he would not die if he touched it.
