Yan Sihai didn't dare to slack off, took "Li Jiamingjing" with both hands, took out a handkerchief, wrapped the book, and stuffed it into his arms.

Patting his chest gently, Yan Sihai breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling that the burden on his shoulders was much heavier.

After a while, Zhuang Zhengde and others also came back one after another.

Hu Bulai carried a long bundle of thick hemp rope, panting and put the objects in his hand on the ground, "My mother, you are not considerate and considerate of me, an old man, I just have the strength, and the work of a meal is over." ”

Glancing at this lean man, Zhuang Zhengde couldn't help but sneer, "You nonsense, don't you have a lot of strength when you defect to the master." ”

After hearing this, Hu Bulai instantly lost his arrogance, drooped his head and smiled, and hurriedly leaned over to pack his things. Li Sifu stepped down to help, looked at these items roughly, and nodded with satisfaction, "I can't imagine that Daochang Hu is more thoughtful than me, everything needed for the tomb is readily available, could it be that Daochang Hu has also done gravedigging work?" ”

didn't admit or deny it, Hu Bulai just muttered, "For a bite of food, you have to do everything." ”

"Little fat brother, come and help your cousin get something." Dong Li carried a basket of yellow and white paper money and entered the door, and Xie Cong didn't know what objects he was lifting, but he was so blocked that even people couldn't see it.

Zhuang Zhengde hurriedly ran to the door to answer, and looked at it carefully, and couldn't laugh or cry, "I said cousin, are you moving other people's paper shops back?" What is the matter with this boy and girl? ”

"You don't understand this, our hometown in the Northeast is going to the tomb to do things, and we must give the ancestors inside a clear and clear way, and there is no shortage of etiquette. Originally, this grave digging was a matter of damaging yin morality, not to mention tossing in other people's homes. ”

With his hands free, Xie Cong wiped the sweat from his forehead, although as a disciple of the Northeast, he rarely dealt with the grave circle, but these rivers and lakes etiquette, the elders in the family still gave the professor early to deal with some special situations that had to go down to the tomb to find out.

Li Sifu also agrees with Xie Cong's statement. This time digging graves with dogs, in fact, some rules were broken.

The rule of grave digging is not to invite guests to dinner, but to have a minimum of reverence for ghosts and gods.

After counting everything, Bai Chongwen took the idea, it was not early today, and what he could do was to go around the tomb to see the situation, and postpone the matter of going to the tomb until early tomorrow morning.

Originally, the work on the ground would be handed over to Bai Chongwen and Li Sifu's master and apprentice, but at this time, no one wanted to miss this good show, and they were clamoring to go together.

Seeing that so many people took the initiative to ask for their lives, Bai Chongwen was idle, "You men, let's go, the old man will accompany the female dependents to wait at home for the old county order of Zhuang to come back." There is nothing big on the tomb, and my old man went to see the excitement. ”

Zhuang Zhengde and the others stopped being verbose, took two carriages, and set out.

When we arrived near the tomb, the western mountains were thinning.

Li Sifu took the lead, took the compass out of his arms, and carefully investigated near the robbery cave.

The others didn't dare to come out, just stood aside and probed their brains and looked around.

At first, Li Sifu's expression was very relaxed, walking back and forth around the thief cave for a few zhang, but after less than a quarter of an hour, Mr. Feng Shui's expression suddenly became solemn.

Seeing Mr. Li's expression, Zhuang Zhengde suddenly felt a bad premonition coming.

I saw that Li Sifu suddenly quickened his pace, walking as fast as the wind, and his brain was slowly sweating, flashing with crystal light in the afterglow of the setting sun.

Suddenly felt a slight vibration under his feet, Zhuang Zhengde didn't have time to speak, only to hear Li Sifu shout, "It's not good, go quickly!" ”

said that it was too late, Zhuang Zhengde heard the words and hurriedly pulled everyone back, and Li Sifu had already jumped a few feet away from the entrance of the thief cave.

The shaking under his feet did not stop, but only intensified. The leaves of the withered yellow trees around them rustled from the vibration, and they fell one by one.

Zhuang Zhengde ran a long way, and felt that the vibration under his feet was much lighter, so he turned his head to look at the entrance of the thief cave.

The entrance of the thief cave that had been filled in before, suddenly changed at this time, and it was a hula collapse, and from the collapsed gap, there was a sound of squeezing.

The sound became louder and louder, and if you looked closely, snakes, insects, rats, ants, and so on came out of the cracks, squeezing back and forth and hugging each other, squeezing the entrance of the thief hole bigger and bigger, and the ground was suddenly black and pressed.

These snakes, insects, rats and ants don't care about other people around them, and they just scatter and flee for their lives.

Zhuang Zhengde was born afraid of these things, so he desperately grabbed Hu Bulai's arm and shouted, "What the hell is going on!" ”

Over there, Li Sifu opened his voice and shouted to retreat, Zhuang Zhengde didn't dare to slack off, waved at this kind of person, turned around and ran.

When he ran to the side of the road, Li Sifu came out of nowhere, and he was already standing on the side of the road, panting like a cow with his hands on his waist.

Zhuang Zhengde ran to the front and no longer had the strength, and sat on the ground.

The loss is that I came to this place in the daytime, if it is night, I am afraid that a few people will not even be able to find the direction of running, even if they are not eaten by snakes, insects, rats and ants, they will have to fall into the stomach.

After a long pause, Zhuang Zhengde snatched the water bag in Hu Bulai's hand and poured it violently, then looked up and asked, "Mr. Li, what's going on?" How do you get such a thing out of a good hole? I didn't even see a spider web when I went in before. ”

Li Sifu wiped the compass in his hand, and took a closer look, the strange needle in the compass Tianchi had been determined, impartial, not floating or sinking, and quietly pointing in the direction of due south.

"It's okay just now, it's still a needle at the entrance of the thief cave, I have no abnormality after a few circles, and when I go around to the place where the hole is two feet north, the strange needle in the pool suddenly began to move."

"The sudden change from throwing needles to sinking needles is probably because the yin qi in the tomb has not dissipated that day, so it is considered a normal phenomenon. But before the needle sat firmly, it suddenly became a needle, and this strange needle turned up to not reach the top, and the bottom did not probe the bottom. ”

"Then the ground shook just now, and a nest of snakes, insects, rats and ants came out of the robbery hole, looking at this situation, I am afraid that the tomb below is leaking, these snakes and insects are some poisons, that is, to prevent gravediggers from robbing the tomb."

After saying so much in one breath, Li Sifu was also a little thirsty, waved his hand and took a sip of the water bag that Zhuang Zhengde asked for, and continued, "This layer of tomb is unpredictable, it seems that the matter of going to the tomb still needs to be considered in the long run, and I don't know if there is something buried in it, which can actually make my compass needle headless." ”

"After so many years of going to the tomb, this situation is really a big girl getting on a sedan chair - the first time!"

After listening to Li Sifu's explanation, Zhuang Zhengde lowered his head and pondered for a long time without saying a word, Hu Bu was in a hurry, paced back and forth a few steps, and said in a deep voice, "It seems that there are still fewer things prepared, go back and I'll make a few oil bottles out, and when the time comes, I will come across these things again, and directly ignite them and throw them in, and burn him clean." ”

Regarding the routine of Hu Bulai, everyone is noncommittal. The good ones in the tomb drilled out such things, and the loss was to organize an investigation in advance, otherwise the consequences of these people going in would be unimaginable.

Seeing that the hour was still early, Li Sifu proposed to go back to observe and observe, if there was no change, he could prepare more equipment tomorrow to find out.

Everyone cautiously groped back to the vicinity of the thief hole, and at this time, the entrance of the thief hole had completely collapsed, leaking out the opening of the black hole. There are also some snakes, insects, rats and ants that have not had time to escape and bite in piles, and they are very red when they see natural enemies.

The poisonous snake bit a rat in its mouth, and its body was bitten off by other rats, and in this fracture there were some unnamed insects crawling around, gnawing frantically.

Li Sifu picked up the compass and glanced at it, at this time, there was no movement in Tianchi, and it was actually shown to be in a positive needle state, and Li Sifu really had no idea for a while, he had never seen the compass out of control like this for so many years.

The mess reflected the compass's calm Tianchi, and Li Sifu couldn't help but doubt the accuracy of his compass.

Zhuang Zhengde watched it for a long time, but he didn't see one, two, three, four, at this time, seeing that Li Sifu's face was not good, he knew that something was wrong.
