Chapter 41: Tomb Robbery

As the name suggests, Maweipo is a small dirt slope, somewhat unexpectedly steep.

The soil on the slope was dug into a stepped shape, and logs were used to prevent the rain from washing away the steps.

However, decades have passed, and more than half of the staircase has collapsed, and the rain has washed away the dirt and logs, and no one has repaired them.

Now the sun was about to set, but the two of them and the cat did not mean to stop and rest, but walked straight up, refusing to waste any time.

Su Cheng walked like a fly, standing on the root of the tree every time the soles of his feet landed, never letting the mud stain his body.

It was as easy as breathing for him!

Kukai and Bai Lotian were a little embarrassed, their cloth boots were covered with yellow mud spots, and they even fell into the mud when they stepped on it, and it took a lot of effort to lift them.

As they climbed up, a locust forest appeared above them, and the setting sun shone through the foliage.

Although it is the tomb of the concubine, there is actually no special pomp!

This is actually very normal, the concubine who was hanged in the name of the bane will definitely not be able to have a grand burial, even after the Anshi Rebellion was quelled, no one dared to rebuild it with great fanfare.

A small open space appeared in front of them, Bai Lotian finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time, God knew that he was a scholar, and after sitting in a bumpy carriage for most of the day, he had to climb the mountain again, his physical strength was a little weak, and he began to breathe like a bellows.

Su Cheng looked at the grave in front of him intently, and suddenly felt that life was impermanent.

The once-famous beauty Yang Yuhuan was buried in such an inconspicuous small place.

In the middle of the locust grove is a small clearing where the trees have been cut down and tidyed, and a stone monument has been erected in the middle of the clearing.

The dark stele with granite texture is engraved with the words "Tomb of Yang Guifei", which is not even indicated in the date of birth and death, and some are too simple.

Bai Lotian couldn't take care of his breath, he was extremely disappointed when he saw this small grave bag, he staggered over, touched the tombstone with his hand, and couldn't say a word for a long time!

There was a rock next to the tomb that was high above the ground, and Su Cheng's four calves trotted up, looking around condescendingly, wanting to know what the name was.

Kukai was now like a paralyzed face, without any expression, turning the Buddha beads on his palm.

On the contrary, a depressed expression that was neither sad nor sad appeared on Bai Lotian's face. When the sun shone on his face, it looked like he was crying.

This is of course just an illusion!

"The Han Emperor is heavy on the country, and Yuyu has been unable to ask for it for many years. The Yang family has a girl who has just grown up, and she is raised in the depths of the boudoir and is unknown..."

In the past few days, Bai Letian has been hit a little hard, he looks extremely haggard, but there is a hint of toughness in his spirit to find out the truth.

Su Cheng waited left and right, and he didn't see the shadow of the demon cat and the white dragon, and obviously said that he only needed to bring these two people to the tomb of the concubine.

"Unless it's not really a grave!"

This thought suddenly passed through his mind, the demon cat Bailong obviously tried his best to resurrect Yang Guifei, and it was impossible to let her stay in the small coffin.

Bai Lotian hesitated slightly, "Do you really want to dig?" ”

"Why don't you come here for what?" Su Cheng rolled his eyes, anyway, don't expect a cat to do it, dig it yourself.

"But we don't have the tools!" Kukai coldly pointed out the problem.

They came in a hurry, and they had no experience in tomb robbing, but they forgot the most important things.

Although Su Cheng's claws are sharp, digging soil is not a strong point, and after thinking about it, he assigned: "Kukai, your feet are relatively fast, you go to the two shovels over there." ”

Bai Lotian didn't want to stay alone with the demon cat, so he hurriedly stood next to Kukai: "I'll go with you." ”

"Lord Bai should stay here, I'll go back as soon as I go."

Time is of the essence, and if you bring a bottle of oil, you may not be able to return until midnight. What's more, the demon cat also expects Bai Lotian to write "The Song of Long Hatred" and spread it all over the world, and will never kill him before the poem is finished.

Kukai is a neat man, and after saying that, he turned and left.

Su Cheng squatted on the rock, smoothed his hair with his tongue, and said, "Kukai, you have to be a little faster, I am afraid that there will be a shocking change here after the sun goes down!" ”

Such a large locust forest had gathered too much yin qi, and Su Cheng had found out that the arrangement of the demon cat and white dragon had failed, and there would inevitably be a big battle after nightfall.

Kukai could also sense that something was wrong with his surroundings, but he still thought it was a demon cat's arrangement. But after seeing Su Cheng's reaction, he found that he had guessed wrong.

He himself is a cautious person, and he has come all the way from Dongying to Chang'an, and the process in the middle will not be so peaceful, so the pace under his feet is faster.

Bai Lotian was a little afraid of Su Cheng, he didn't dare to approach the rock here, and stood alone in a daze.

The evening breeze rustled the branches and leaves of the locust tree, sounding strange.

After Su Cheng recovered his strength for a while, he opened his eyes, and suddenly said to Bai Letian: "The person who sent the dead is here, you hide aside." ”

"What?"

Bai Lotian was a little stunned, not understanding what was going on.

In Su Cheng's keen hearing, a group of people hurriedly approached, and it was really difficult to block the sound.

At this moment, three men came out of the locust forest, each with a green steel sword hanging from their waists, and their faces looked a little vicious!

"That scholar, hurry up and hand over the baby, otherwise, you will suffer." The leader didn't put the black cat in his eyes at all, and it was too easy to deal with a helpless reader.

The other person spat on the ground and laughed: "Today, the three of us brothers should get rich, and what about the monk, where is he hiding?" ”

Bai Lotian took two steps back and said suspiciously: "Did you guys misunderstand?" What a treasure I have! It's just to mourn the concubine. ”

The leader pulled out the green steel sword on his waist, and the blade emitted a cold light, "You two look sneaky, as soon as you get off the carriage, you are in a hurry to run to Yang Guifei's grave, aren't you looking for a treasure?" The dignified concubine Niangniang, when she was buried, she must have buried a lot of good treasures. Tell me honestly, or don't blame me for being unkind! ”

"Then how do you want to be polite?"

A deep voice suddenly came from behind the three men, causing them to turn around immediately.

"Who?"

"Who would dare to pretend to be a ghost in front of your grandfather?"

"Get out of here!"

Su Cheng had quietly climbed onto a tall locust tree before the three of them stepped into the clearing, and now it had turned into a shadow and descended from the sky!

He jumped down from the tree and slowly approached them, step by step, while agitating his voice, "I'm coming." ”

It's like a fierce beast that came out of hell, with cold eyes, imposing momentum, and even able to speak human language!

These three people who came to grab the so-called treasure are full of qi and blood, not reading people like Bai Letian, and illusion does not work well for them, unless it disturbs their minds and thinking at the beginning, so that they can't think calmly.

Therefore, Su Chengcai deliberately created a chilling appearance, and the effect was very good.
