Chapter 14 Brackets

Dong Tian went to bed early on the carriage and horses all the way, and agreed to visit the ancient tomb tomorrow, and it was time to see everything.

I lay alone in my father's room, watching the dark night outside, and I couldn't tell what it was like, but I hoped that everything would go well, and let me find the answer I wanted.

In a daze, I fell asleep. I woke up early the next morning when the chickens called me, and I didn't dream of anything that night, a rare night in all this time.

Due to the large number of things they brought, Dong Tian decided to drive them this time, planning to hit the car on Wanjiahe's side. Wanjia is separated by a mountain beam is a sand field, which is also convenient.

After dinner in the morning, I told my mother that it would take several days to go out this time, so that she didn't have to worry, and then got into Dong Tian's car and drove along the dirt road to Wanjiamu.

I looked at Hong Ye who was lying in the back seat of the car and snoring, and frowned, this guy actually wore a red hat on his fucking head, and he looked like a clown in the circus.

"Brother Dong, is this person really reliable?" I pulled Dong Tian's arm next to me, Dong Tian was driving, and glanced at it from the rearview mirror, "Awen, you can look at this, you will know when it is unreliable or not." After saying that, he smiled at me with a pretended profoundness.

"Cut, I don't think it's useful." I pursed my lips disdainfully, I didn't believe that this guy who walked swaying could make much of a difference, and he was sloppy, but when he saw Su Xiao, he looked obscene.

When the car arrived at Wanjia, Dong Tian picked a mountain depression and drove the car in, I was the first time to sit in such a good car when I was so big, and I was comfortable.

"Brother, this car is good, right?" Dong Tian patted the body proudly. I looked at the car with envy, if only I could drive this thing somewhere.

"Little brother, don't be envious, if we succeed this time, Brother Liu guarantees, you can also start it." Liu Er got things from the car with a red face, this time they came completely prepared, and there were a lot of things.

I walked up and took a hand, and secretly asked Liu Er, "Second brother, what can the fat man do?" ”

Liu Er saw that I had a big opinion of the fat man, and quietly said to me, "This Yellow River is very evil, and I asked Brother Dong to find Hong Ye, naturally it is to carry the corpse." ”

I was taken aback and felt cold on my back. "Is there a corpse down here?"

"Who knows, maybe there is, maybe not, it's better if you don't have it, I'm just afraid, if there is a thousand-year-old zongzi, it will be troublesome." Liu Erba took a puff of cigarette and got the strange things off the car.

My heart slowly began to heavily, although I have learned a lot from Su Xiao in the past few days, but I haven't done it yet.

After getting the things down, Liu San stood on the hillside and looked at the sun, saying that it was still early, and he would not be able to do it until half the afternoon, when the sun was about to set.

"Third child, you go and step on the ground first, and it will be smooth when the time comes." Liu Er shouted at Liu San, and I saw Liu San walking towards the battlefield alone.

"Wait, wait for the sun to go down." Dong Tian looked at the sun and said to me with a smile.

Dong Tian and Liu Er began to pack up their things, I went back to the car to help Su Xiao get out of the car, the injury on her foot has improved, but she is not very good at walking.

I glared hard at the fat guy in the back seat, and the guy ignored me, rolled over and fell asleep.

"Fuck, this fat man." I cursed in my heart, my teeth itched with hatred, and I don't know why I was unhappy with this guy.

Time flies slowly, but I'm not bored with Su Xiao by my side. Although these 10,000 families are not far from the village, they are all the ancestral graves of the families in the village, and few people come here, so it saves a lot of trouble, which is why we decided to use this ravine as a temporary camp for us this time.

About three o'clock in the afternoon, Liu San came back, he walked to Liu Er's side and didn't know what to say quietly, I saw Liu Er's face change a few times.

"What's wrong?" Dong Tian saw Liu Er's expression and didn't know what was going on.

Su Xiao told me that Liu San was palm-eyed, and his eyes were very poisonous, and I wondered in my heart, this guy probably found something.

"Is there a change?" I asked Liu Er.

"Little brother, a good news, a bad news, what do you say, which one to listen to first?" I thought to myself, damn it, this Liu Er still has this humor.

"What are you doing holding back, let's talk about the good first, and then talk about the bad." Dong Tian estimated that he was impatient with the sun on this day, and waved his hand frizzily.

"The good news is that this tomb is definitely some years old, and the things below are enough for us to send a large sum." Liu Er swallowed. "The bad news is that the flood a few days ago has brought down a lot of sand and silt, and once the amount of work is large, I am afraid that I will have to make a hole in a different way."

"Is it sand?" Su Xiao didn't know when he came over, and asked Liu Er with a frown.

"Yes, some of them are tricky, you said that my brothers and I went south and north, and I haven't gone down to the tomb, but the hole under the sand has really not been hit, and if I can't get it, I will be buried alive." Liu Er spread out his hands with a wry smile on his face.

"I'm thinking about discussing it with Miss Su, what to do, we don't have a good way to do this, Miss Su, maybe you southern faction has ......"

After Liu Er finished speaking, everyone stared at Su Xiao, Su Xiao rubbed his forehead and said let her think about it.

After a while, Su Xiao raised his head. "It's not impossible, but it's ......."

As soon as she heard Su Xiao say that she had a way, Liu Eryi slapped her thigh. "I'll just say, Miss Su has a way, what do you say......"

"Did Third Brother Liu see what he saw?" Su Xiao turned his head to look at Liu San, who was smoking on the side.

"Hehe, it seems that Miss Su is the true inheritance of the old man, but I can't hide it from you." Liu Sanyi slapped his ass and stood up. "This tomb is too far away, I can't be sure."

"What do you say?" Dong Tian interjected next to him.

Liu San glanced at him, obviously not taking this non-layman's words seriously. "Let's deduce that this tomb is at least in the Warring States period, this Warring States tomb is generally a straight pit, straight up and down, there is no tomb, but I just walked around, it seems a little wrong here."

"You said that this sand field was originally the ancient channel of the Yellow River, then it used to be the Yellow River, and this tomb is under here, how is it possible?" Liu San frowned and said the doubts in his heart.

"What's impossible, my grandfather told me when he was a child, thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, maybe the Yellow River before this ancient road was later, and it was a tomb before." I heard Liu San talk like this, and I couldn't help but interject.

"Ah Wen, Third Brother Liu didn't mean this, he probably said why this cemetery is still there, right?" Su Xiao seemed to understand Liu San's doubts, and looked at Liu San after thinking about it.

"yes, that's it, I've never seen anything like this weird." Liu San slapped his hand, "If this cemetery was built before the Yellow River was diverted, then you said that the Yellow River water is so impulsive, and everyone saw the flood that day, how can this tomb be completely preserved and buried under the sand?" ”

"Can you be sure it's all right down here?" Dong Tian was a little unconvinced by what Liu San said earlier, and asked angrily.

"Hehe, second master, this is very clear about how many catties and taels we have in our hands, we can't walk, we have relied on this ability to eat in the rivers and lakes over the years, besides, in addition to the thousand-year-old tomb, your second master will tell me, where did the heavy evil qi come from, but Miss Su and Brother Zhang experienced it personally."

Hearing him say this, I suddenly realized that this is mysterious, that dark and quiet evil breath I personally came out of it, and almost killed me.

"So there's all the stuff down there?" Dong Tian was happy, after all, if the things below were complete, it would be possible to find what he wanted to get.

"Do you think this is not something that my ancestors left behind to find? After all, the place shown in my picture is in the old cow valley that the little brother said, and none of us have ever been to that place. Dong Tian said his conjecture in confusion.

"It's easy to say, this Warring States Tomb is generally with some ghost pits. Maybe it's a ghost pit, but of course it's possible that this is the one on the battlefield. We'll find out until we have to go down. Liu Er stood up and said.

"What's the hell pit?" The first time I heard this, I didn't understand the question.

"It is a burial pit for men and animals." Su Xiao whispered in my ear.

"Then it's more likely here, such a heavy evil spirit, there are many dead people." Dong Tian argued. "Hehe, this is not necessarily, in some special feng shui places, such as the legendary corpse raising place." Liu Er laughed when he looked at Dong Tian.

"Yes, that night, we all saw the phenomenon of lightning with our own eyes, and there is obviously a big thing underneath, even if it is a ghost pit, it is not that simple."

Hearing them say this, I was amazed, I really didn't expect that the place where I had lived for so many years had such a big secret.

At this moment, in Wanjiahe, after this delay, the sun is about to set.

Liu Er: The hands-on time they said was just after the sun had completely set. In his words, it is not to do the day, to do the rules of this business.

I don't know the rules, but looking at them, I remembered everything that happened here that night.

It was from that night that the two brothers of the Wu family and the three people of Tietou had accidents one after another, and Su Xiao appeared in my father's grave inexplicably that night, and in a daze, Su Xiao said what my father brought me.

It's all like a fog that covers my heart.

"Your lord told you not to go to Lao Niuwa...... "Su Xiao's words to me that night are still in my ears, looking at the sun that has disappeared far away from a few mountains, and the place where it sets is Lao Niuwa.

I don't know if Su Xiao really saw my father that night, or if he was blinding me.

Before I knew it, the sun had completely set, and several people began to act.

In the end, they decided to dig the earth on the edge of the ridge near the sand field to prevent the sand from collapsing and burying people alive underneath.

"Look at this place, it's still a little far from the pit, we have a saying in this line, looking for the dragon point, I'm about to be the head of the dragon here, try it, the next shovel, you'll see." Liu Er held a cigarette, looked left and right on the ground, and finally drew a circle.

Then I saw Dong Tian and Liu San take out a lot of tools from their bags.

I saw Liu San take a shelf welded of triangular iron and fix it on the ground, and then tumbled out from the canvas bag, and a bundle of rebar the thickness of two thumbs rolled out.

"What are you doing here?" I asked, puzzled.

"You'll find out later." Liu San took the time to smile at me.

Then I watched him carefully take out a shovel from the small pocket on his back. I understand a little when I see this thing, could it be the Luoyang shovel used by the legendary Tufuzi.

Then I saw Liu San use the triangular iron frame to support the shovel, hit the ground, and when I was about to go in, Liu Er picked up the rebar on the ground and connected it, and I saw that there were a few rivets inlaid at the top.

The relationship is to lengthen this Luoyang shovel. I nodded. "Understood?" Dong Tian asked me right next to me.

"Needless to say." I looked at him and pouted.

After a while, a total of 11 rebars were driven into the ground, which was like a way to get rid of the method used in the big well in our village, but the hollow light pipe was used to dig the well, and it was done when you went down to see the water.

I glanced at the shovel that had been driven into the dirt, "Does this thing really work?" ”

"Hehe, do you need to talk about it? Gold shovel, silver shovel, not as good as our little shovel, little brother, just look at it. Liu Er patted me on the shoulder, turned to Liu San and said, "Get up!" ”

I saw Liu San pulling up section by section, and after a while, the Luoyang shovel was pulled out with a shovel of mud.

But as soon as they saw the mud, the faces of the Liu brothers turned pale!

"This ......" I saw that Su Xiao's face also became ugly.

"My dear mother, the corpse is piled up!" A creepy wind came from behind me. Listening to the voice behind me, I turned around and found that I don't know when the fat man came. <#..

His eyes stared at the dirt on the shovel in a daze, and his eyes actually lit up.

"What's going on?" I muttered to myself, I couldn't figure it out. Looking into the fat man's eyes, I saw that the dirt brought up by the shovel was actually black.

This black is not the black of the silt at the bottom of the river, but a kind of black that makes people's hearts beat faster, as if something is in the soil and wants to break free and run into your eyes.

I took a breath of cool air, what a fierce thing, is this really some kind of corpse accumulation?

At the same time, I watched the fat man walk up to Liu San without any care, take the shovel, wipe the soil with his fingers, put it in his mouth and bazale it a few times, and an expression of enjoyment actually appeared on his greasy face.

"Such an authentic taste, I haven't seen it for many years, Lao Liu, this is a good place, there is definitely a big pit down there, no less than a hundred lives." When the fat man had tasted the soil, he uttered something that made me tremble.

"Really?" Liu Er asked the fat man with a frown.

"Hey, this is absolute, I can't be wrong." The fat man's rare positive color said to Liu Er. Only then did I know that the real name of this so-called corpse-carrying man Hong Ye is Hong Da Niu, but he really fucking looks like a cow.

Liu Er thought about it, lit a cigarette, and finally tried it first, after all, this time it was inferred that the tomb was under the battlefield, but the place where we started was obviously in the side room, no way, the sand in the ancient road of the Yellow River made it difficult to get started.

Liu San went back and forth according to Liu Er's instructions, and came down a few shovels, but what came out was the kind of black soil with a fishy smell, and it was strange to say that the soil brought up from such a deep place did not have a little moisture, and it was sprinkled dry.

When Dong Tian and I helped Liu San get the last shovel, Liu Er walked over and threw the cigarette butt in his mouth on the ground, "Fuck it, that's it, try it, this is the first fucking time I've encountered this kind of tricky guy in so many years." There was a palpable excitement on his face, clearly interested in the challenge of the tomb.

I don't know where he got this feeling, but I remembered that I used to watch someone on TV who said that the master was lonely, and this sentence is probably common in this line.

Liu Er took out a small white bag from the cloth bag, took out something from it and scattered it along the shovel hole, which was exactly equivalent to drawing a circle.

"Just start from here, and you'll know if you can dig into it or not." Liu Er smiled and pointed to the place, and he and Liu San's two brothers began to get it.

"What? Six-six powder? "Look at the things scattered in that circle, the sky is a little dark, I can't see it really, and I asked Dong Tian, who also doesn't understand this business.

"Quicklime, huh?" Dong Tian said uncertainly.

"It's lime." Su Xiao walked over, "First, to prevent some snakes, insects, rats and ants from hurting people in the soil, and secondly, this thing is said to be strong in yang and ward off evil spirits." ”

"Really? Tomb robbers are still afraid of this? Dong Tian asked in surprise.

"Second Master Dong, do you really regard our profession as a Taoist? We seek wealth, not ghosts. Hearing Dong Tian's words, Liu San scolded angrily.

I looked at Dong Tian with a stupid face, and laughed.

"Little brother, you and Second Master Dong should also come and help, this place is far away, it is estimated that it will be dug for a while." Hearing Liu Er say this, Dong Tian and I were embarrassed to stand, took two shovels of the kind used by sappers from Liu San, and dug them up.

I inadvertently looked back and saw that Hong Daniu's dead fat man had actually fallen asleep again in the tent we had set up.

"Damn, is this a cow or a pig?" I scolded angrily.

"Little brother, it's nothing, you don't need Hong Ye for these things, when he makes a move later, don't underestimate people." Liu Erda glanced at me meaningfully.

I knew I was angry because that guy had a problem with the way he looked at Su Xiao, but I always felt uncomfortable. Holding his breath in his heart, his two arms danced the shovel quickly, and Dong Tian looked at my work vigorously and was dumbfounded.

"I can't see it, you kid, this arm strength ......," Dong Tian said with a smile.

"What's this, my family has been digging sand for generations......" I looked at the small pile of soil dug out under Dong Tian's feet with disdain.

Since this pit is not a direct burial chamber, if you enter it from the side, the workload is large, but it is safe, and you don't have to dig and bury it as usual, and the excavated soil is piled on the side, anyway, no one has come to this family for ten days and half a month, and there is not a single ghost, and it is very safe.

About ten meters down, Liu San heard a voice from inside, and it was done. Then I saw him come out of it with a disgraced face.

"Brother, no, what do you guess I'm digging?" Something flashed in Liu San's eyes.

"Don't ink, what?" Liu Er didn't know when he lit another cigarette and breathed the air there.

"There's bricks in there!"

"What? How is it possible, are we in the wrong place? Liu Er's brows were furrowed.

"How come, explore the cave to find the position, when did I make a mistake, brother, I don't think this person is the tomb of the Warring States."

Hearing him say this, I remembered what Su Xiao told me some time ago, there are no bricks under the tomb of the Warring States, all of them are earthen walls, and I don't know if this brick is good or bad.

"What's going on?" Dong Tian put down the sapper shovel in his hand and gasped for breath.

"Fuck, dig!" Liu Er's face turned a few times uncertainly, and he waved his hand heavily.

I'm also wondering in my heart, is it really a mistake? If it was a brick, how did the Luoyang shovel go down just now, and it also brought up black soil, with a fishy smell.

With doubts, we started digging again according to the measurement pointed by Liu Er, about half an hour, we have all entered the hole, and Su Xiao is left with limited mobility outside, and the dead fat man who is still sleeping.

Liu San in front of him stopped suddenly, "It's over, it's over, brother, come here." "Looking at Liu San beckoning in front, Dong Tian and I followed Liu Er to the end of this hole, Liu San had a miner's lamp on his head, flashing and flashing. What appeared in front of us was a wall of bricks, tightly built, and the bricks were not known to be fired, scarlet and scarlet, and it was very strange under the miner's lamp.

Since the soil had already been cleared out by me and Dong Tian right behind, this place still looked very spacious, and a large wall had been cleared out of the place where Liu San was standing.

"Brother, you have an idea." Liu San returned this time, I looked at the small shovel-like shovel in this kid's hand, I really couldn't see the soil rat that dug so fast and got rid of it.

Dong Tian was probably curious and wanted to reach out to try the wall, but before he could do anything, Liu Er pushed him aside. "My second master, don't make a mess, okay, you let me think about it, everything below has a saying, if something happens to you, I can't afford it." Seeing Liu Er's nervousness, Dong Tian scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Let's go, we'll know when we open." In the end, there was no way, Liu Er took out a palm-sized shovel from a chain bag on his waist, and used the shovel to beat it on the solid brick wall.

I watched his fingers shake at a peculiar frequency, and slowly he actually plunged the shovel into the wall.

"I'm going, God!" Dong Tian stared at the scene in front of him with wide eyes.

After a while, a brick fell to the ground, and it had been warped by Liu Er's special technique. With the first one, it was easy to get it, and after that, after a while, Liu Er had a bunch of that scarlet brick under his feet.

"Come, take a hand, get this brick out first, or it will be inconvenient to wait."

Hearing Liu Er say this, Dong Tian and I helped to divide those bricks and get them out a few times.

When Dong Tian and I returned to this thief hole again, Liu Er had already changed his tools and had no bricks, but what caught his eye was a layer of wall, which was black, and Liu Er got some soil and put it on his nose and smelled it.

"This is a wooden compartment, presumably for waterproofing, and the wood becomes black when it is corrupted, but what does this mean? The person who designed the cemetery had a problem with his brain, this kind of trick ......" Liu Er muttered alone, and I looked at it with big eyes and small eyes.

Liu San walked up and knocked with his hand, and the soil made a hard sound, and after a while, I don't know where it hit, and a different sound came from inside.

Liu San's eyes lit up, and he tapped down in that direction, and found that there was probably a distance inside that was empty.

"That's it, come back and go out when you see something wrong, don't hesitate." I looked at Liu Er's eyes and nodded.

"Bang" Liu Er slammed something in his hand hard against the empty earthen wall, and a big hole in the slap appeared.

"Hold your breath and don't breathe." Hearing Liu Er shout like this, my heart tightened, and I quickly covered my mouth.

I saw a flower in front of my eyes, and Liu Er's hand quickly tapped a few times, and a half-person-high hole appeared on the wall. Then a black mist actually came out of the dark hole.

"Let's go!" Liu Er shouted loudly, and Dong Tian and I turned around and ran out.

What the fuck is this? I couldn't hold it anymore, so I took a sharp breath, and this inhale almost drove me crazy.

The smell is not stinky, it is spicy or not, and it is a dullness that makes people want to spit out all their internal organs.

Finally got out of the hole, I threw up on the ground with a shield and vomited, feeling that the bitter gall came out.

I don't know how long it took for me to get better, and my eyes and nose were either tears or snot, how embarrassed I was.

At this time, Su Xiao came over and handed me some water, and I drank some to get better, but my head was still groggy.

"Little brother, I told you that you didn't listen, you look at this, fortunately it's okay this time, otherwise I would have confessed here." Liu Er said to me with a wry smile.

I took a few sharp breaths, "Second brother, what is this, such a big smell?" ”

"You don't know this, I don't know how long this tomb hasn't been in, it's been held under it for so long, the corpse, and those messy things, rotten, the ghost knows what it smells like, you actually smell it, tsk." Liu Er saw my foreign appearance and laughed.

That's when I realized that the fuck was so dangerous.

After a long time on the ground, I realized that I was feeling better.

"Let's let it dry for a while, and then you can disperse the air." Liu San and a few of them made something to eat, and while resting, they waited for the black gas in the cemetery to dissipate.

Poor my stomach is churning so badly, I have no appetite at all.

After about an hour, they also rested. Liu Er stood up.

"Almost, let's go, go in and have a look." He was the first to go inside.

I stood up, and this time Su Xiao and the fat man were going in too. I'm really going to start my first grave robbery in my life.

But now that I think about it, maybe not so many things would have happened if I hadn't gone in at the time, but there is often no regret in the world.

When I went in, I stood in front of the black hole again, and I felt my legs still shaking.

Liu Er lit a fire fold and threw it inside, and now, we can see it clearly.

But at this sight, I almost turned around and left, and looking at the scene in front of me, my scalp was numb.
