Chapter 59: Revisiting the Tomb

"It's getting late, let's go back first." Wiping the sweat on his forehead, Zhuang Zhengde continued, "This place is quite remote, and there are not many people here. It's not too late to wait until tomorrow when it's ready. ”

When everyone returned to the county office, Zhuang Yun had also returned from work, and seeing a few young postgraduates with gray faces, Zhuang Yun couldn't help but be a little worried.

Roughly told the few people in the family what happened just now, Bai Chongwen's face was already full of gloom, Bai Chongwen had rarely touched the matter of digging graves for so many years, and he didn't understand these things.

Now that such a problem has emerged, Bai Chongwen is also a little unable to grasp the key point, although this eye can see things that others can't see, but no matter how magical it is, it doesn't have the ability to pass through the wooden wall.

The courtyard was quiet for a while, everyone was waiting for someone to come out and come up with an idea, Bai Chongwen looked at Li Sifu with inquiring eyes, Li Sifu understood, and said after a moment of silence, "I thought it was just a hairy ghost and god borrowing a corpse to resurrect the soul, but now it seems that it is not so simple." ”

"However, my ancestral compass has never had a problem, and I am afraid that there is a hole in the tomb below, so there is some obscurity leaking. Tomorrow, I will purchase two rabbits in advance, and Hu Daochang will make some oil bottles to come out. ”

"It's a mule or a horse, and we can't look at it when we sit at home. Pull it out tomorrow and you'll find out if you try it! ”

After a hasty dinner, Bai Chongwen took Yan Sihai back to the Land Temple first, and Li Sifu saw that there was nothing to do, so he also returned home.

Xiao Yue was helping Dong Li and Gray Xiaoshu clean up the leftovers on the table, a wisp of green silk hung on her face, Zhuang Zhengde couldn't help but be a little distracted, since he went home, Zhuang Zhengde was so busy that he didn't have time to talk to Xiao Yue.

At this time, looking at Xiao Yue, who was busy before and after without complaints, Zhuang Zhengde couldn't help but feel a little guilty in his heart.

After all, Zhuang Yun is an old official, how can he not see it, beckoned Zhuang Zhengde to his side, and said in a low voice, "In the past few days, the more my father looks at Xiaoyue girl, the more pleasing it is, and if I do it for a few more years, my father will have to resign and retire, and you are not small, if your father blocks it again, I am afraid that your mother will blame you for your dreams." ”

Looking at the old county order that changed his tone, Zhuang Zhengde didn't know what to say for a while, "But Dad, Uncle Bai and Mr. Li have seen it, and it is not appropriate to marry this year." ”

"Ouch, marry relatives and marry relatives, other things are your young people's own business, the old man doesn't understand, the old man doesn't understand" Zhuang Yun raised his sleeve to cover half of his cheeks, turned around and patted his ass and entered the study.

Zhuang Zhengde was confused when he heard this, and he didn't react for a while. Hu Bulai came to the front and picked his teeth, and teased, "What does my grandfather say, don't you understand?" I'll explain to you, master. ”

"Pull it down, you bachelor knows a ball. Have you eaten enough? When you're full, hurry up and prepare your oil bottles, and don't play cymbals with your teacher here. Rolling his eyes, Zhuang Zhengde followed Zhuang Yun's example, got up and patted his ass and went to the back kitchen.

No one slept well this night, and early in the morning, everyone in the courtyard had black eye circles and yawns, and everyone looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh a little.

After seeing that there was still a Hu Bu coming, Zhuang Zhengde ran to the guest room and knocked on the door for a long time, only then did there be the sound of Xi Suo getting dressed.

The door of the guest room suddenly opened, and a strange smell almost knocked Zhuang Zhengde to the ground.

Hurriedly pinching his nose, Zhuang Zhengde said in a loud voice, "Daoist Hu, what the hell are you doing." What does this smell of, smoke to death personally. ”

"Hehe, you don't understand this. This smell is my Thunderbolt Archmage's exclusive secret recipe, sesame oil with lard, plus some wood chips from the firewood stack, and some gold juice and human yellow. Not to mention ignition, even the smell alone can make these evil people retreat. ”

"Don't brag, you'll have these things for yourself in a moment. It stinks, and I'm not going to help you. Zhuang Zhengde was smoked by this smell and retreated, and couldn't help but feel a little sick to his stomach.

After breakfast, it was just past midnight when I arrived at the entrance of the cave.

There were a few people standing near the left of the entrance of the cave, but they were all far away from Hu Bulai behind, and no one could smell the smell along the way, and they almost vomited out the breakfast they had finally eaten.

Yesterday's snakes, insects, rats and ants were already dead by this time, and everyone shoveled a big pit nearby and buried the corpses of these animals and insects in it.

Hu Bulai shouted at the back to get out of the way, and didn't care that 3721 threw two oil bottles into the thief hole.

He took out the fire fold from his bosom and threw it into the thief hole, and the oil on the ground was ignited instantly, and there were probably some snake and mouse corpses in it, which burned and crackled.

The fire dragged on and on for a quarter of an hour, and a pungent smell of smoke emanated from the mouth of the thief's cave.

Feeling that it was almost over, Li Sifu walked to the entrance of the thief cave and took advantage of the firelight to take a look, except for some animal corpses on the ground, but no other living creatures were found.

When the smoke almost cleared, Li Sifu threw the two rabbits into the thief hole, turned around and said, "Brother Zhuang, Miss Gray Xiaoshu, and Daoist Hu Bulai, the three of you can go in with me." Mr. Bai Da took others to guard the entrance of the cave and answer at any time. ”

After listening to the order, Zhuang Zhengde distributed the prepared torches to the three people to light them, and Li Sifu held the compass in one hand and the torch in the other.

went all the way to the vicinity of the vermilion lacquer coffin, and did not find anything abnormal, but the sharp-eyed Hu Bulai found that a sentence was written on the broken dragon stone in the tomb: Do not respect the Mao ghost, respect the Mao God.

Li Sifu looked at the compass while walking around the tomb, but the strange needles in the compass Tianchi still didn't move, which couldn't help but make this experienced feng shui gentleman feel a little strange.

At the end of that day, he was directly knocked down by the hairy ghost god, and he didn't have time to take a closer look at the tomb.

After visiting four small rooms, Li Sifu returned to the main tomb and stood still, "This tomb is indeed built in the Shang Dynasty, but this fine vermilion lacquer coffin is a product of the former Qing Dynasty." I didn't find any holes in snakes, insects, rats and ants along the way, which is really strange. ”

Zhuang Zhengde was just about to open his mouth to answer, when Gray Xiaoshu suddenly said, "Twitter, there is a gap here, I smell the strange smell of snakes and rats, but people in this place can't get in." ”

A few people came to Gray Xiaoshu's location and looked at it, it was indeed the case.

This kind of double-storey tomb cannot leave a separate door for outsiders, after all, sometimes it is not a double-storey or multi-storey tomb built intentionally.

There is only one Feng Shui treasure, first come, first served, and no one wants to share it with others.

Generally speaking, this kind of double-layer or multi-storey tomb is because the ground moves the mountain and the upper layer of the tomb is moved down, and then some two knife gentlemen who don't understand feng shui will point out blindly, and it will become this kind of situation where the dove occupies the magpie's nest.

Li Sifu studied carefully next to the gap for a long time, and then used a Luoyang shovel to stir a few times in the gap, bringing out some soil particles that had been sandified.

Picked up some of the soil grains and rubbed them in his hands, and then raised them to the tip of his nose and sniffed, Li Sifu said in a deep voice, "Just dig here, knock on the floor and dig in." ”

After taking the hammer and shovel, Zhuang Zhengde and Hu Bulai got busy.

I tried to knock on the floor in the gap, the sound was very hollow, it seemed that the floor was empty, Hu Bulai spit twice in the palm of his hand, and swung the hammer and smashed it down.

I heard a loud clatter, and the floor next to the crack shattered into several petals, and a large hole collapsed, and the surrounding gravel hissed down a little.

According to the original conjecture, there should be a hole here, but a big hole only leaked out when the hammer went down, Li Sifu was in a trance, and looked at the compass in his hand, or the needle, indicating that the bottom is safe for the time being.

Hu Bulai wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Lao Li, what's the situation?" ”

"It's nothing, after all, it's a tomb under a tomb, and it's impossible to leak out of a passage directly."

"Keep digging, this should be it." Li Sifu planted the torch and brought a shovel to help.

The three of them waved their shovels, and at this time the hole was full of empty soil, and it was not effortless to dig up, but the surrounding gravel kept flowing into the pit, and the mound of soil was digging more and more.

Hu Bulai was a little angry, and threw the shovel aside, "Damn, don't dig it, find a rope to tie it, I'll have a human pangolin, you guys are waiting for my good news above!" ”

After that, Hu Bulai ignored everyone's dissuasion, turned out the rope and tied it around his waist, retreated from the distance to run to borrow strength, jumped into the pit.
