Chapter 64: Two teams of people

According to my dad, these seven people he had known for so many years in the antiques business. Originally, he was an expert in the industry, and my father was full of confidence before he came, but the final outcome was unsatisfactory.

I listened to the composition of this crew, which was quite like the team that my grandfather pulled out back then.

I wanted to ask more, but my dad stood up at this time, and said that he wanted to see the surroundings.

Yu Nian flashed in front of my dad and blocked his way.

"There's something I want to ask."

My dad was inexplicable," you said. ”

"In whose hands are the nails now?"

My dad was very surprised why Yu Nian knew about the existence of bone nails. Yu Nian didn't wait for my father to ask, so he introduced himself, "I am Yu Chunjiao's granddaughter and the umbrella holder of the Yu family's hundred bone umbrellas. ”

My dad's eyes changed suddenly, frightened and afraid. Just wanted to kneel down, but was pulled up by Yu Nian, "My grandmother once swore in front of the ancestral tablet that the umbrella bearer of the Yu family will never be visited by the descendants of the Xiao family." ”

I can't understand the words of these two people, but from my father's indescribable expression, I can see that the grievances between the Xiao family and the Yu family seem to be not shallow.

My father was ashamed and said, "Since I am not allowed to be seen, I have no shame to ask for the protection of the umbrella bearer." ”

I interjected, "Dad, can you stop talking like that?" I got goosebumps when I heard it. ”

My dad squinted at me, "Fuck off." ”

Yu Nian said at this time, "Don't mention the past grievances, I just ask where the bone nail is now." ”

My dad sighed and told me all about the transaction flow of the prongs for so long.

My dad talked about trivial things, but after I sorted it out, I roughly understood the timeline.

About ten years ago, my dad spent a few thousand yuan in a village near Shizhai Mountain to buy a nine-fold treasure letter. My grandfather left a suicide note before he died, mentioning his identity as a descendant of the Xiao family, and also expressing his lifelong wish to find the Three Magic Weapons. In order to follow my grandfather's last wishes, he searched for the whereabouts of the pinnacle for so many years.

When my grandfather was dying, it happened to be the time when the pins and cords were missing.

My dad recognized that this was a deliberate act, so he set out to find the pinnails.

The old search was unsuccessful, and he was about to give up, when the appearance of the Ninefold Treasure Letter made him reinvigorate.

Unexpectedly, not long after the Ninefold Treasure Letter was found, my dad found out that it had been mysteriously stolen. After many years, I received the express delivery of the copper coin again, which once again ignited the idea of finding the Ninefold Treasure Letter.

My dad only said that the Ninefold Treasure Letter was stolen, but I knew in my heart that it was most likely stolen by Teng Jianmin.

It's just that the thin bamboo pole is still present, and Yu Nian guessed that the thin bamboo pole is Teng Jianmin's person, so he didn't say it directly.

Yu Nian took out the nine-fold treasure letter in the bag and handed it to my father, my father's eyes suddenly lit up, and he took the nine-fold treasure letter with trembling hands, "You actually found it?" ”

I poured cold water on this time, "Don't be too happy too early, you open it and take a look." ”

When my dad opened it, he found it empty, so he paused for a moment, then frowned and asked, "What about the bone nails?" Where did it go? ”

He reacted quickly and quickly, but I could see that he was tired of the pause in the middle of the pause of less than half a second.

I am the person who knows him in the world, and his small movements naturally can't hide from my eyes.

He was indeed shocked when he saw the Ninefold Treasure Letter, but his doubts when he saw that the bone nail was not there were pretended. There are only two possibilities, the first is that when he got the Ninefold Treasure Letter ten years ago, the bone nail had already disappeared.

The second possibility is that he knows the whereabouts of the nail but pretends not to know.

Yu Nian has seven tricks and exquisite hearts, how can he not see through my father's cover-up.

But he was not in a hurry to ask at this time, only that it was not appropriate to stay here for a long time.

The space under this hall is more like a sewer.

People can't stand up when they walk in it, so they can only hunch forward.

The catacombs we were walking on looked like a drainage system, surrounded by terracotta walls with arcs on top that looked more like pipes.

。

Tombs with their own drainage systems at the bottom of the tomb are quite rare. In 2013, a complete underground drainage system was found in the ancient tombs of the Song Dynasty unearthed in Ji'an. The form of the tomb is a joint burial tomb in the same tomb and different burials. The whole is composed of three parts: the tomb road, the tomb chamber and the drainage system.

This is the first time that an ancient tomb with a drainage system has been found in the country, and it is rare to see such a situation since then. If this is really a drainage system, there is a lot of research value, after all, there are too few cases to study in this area.

The drainage systems of the ancients have always been designed with ingenuity. A few years ago, Beijing was flooded, and the Forbidden City escaped a catastrophe by relying on a 600-year-old drainage system. However, the stagnant water in the city is difficult to dredge, which also explains a lot of problems to a certain extent.

But if this is a drain pipe, it's a bit too wide. Even if the water in the burial chamber needs to be dredged, there is no need to dig a pipe about the width of the burial tunnel. It is impossible to have so much water to drain. But this terracotta tomb wall makes me a little puzzled, why use clay instead of a drainage channel?

My dad saw my confusion and explained, "The clay is dense, waterproof, moisture-proof, and leak-proof. ”

I nodded, it seems that my dad usually doesn't do his job, but he actually knows a lot of things.

Along the way, Yu Nian and the thin bamboo pole have been at the forefront, followed by my father and me, and then Lao Meng and Tusuo followed. Seeing that we were not close to either of us, I took the opportunity to ask, "What about the group that went up the mountain with you?" ”

My dad said, "It's all gone, there's a labyrinth outside the hall, and we got separated after we went in and out, and I searched the same place several times, but I didn't find anyone." ”

Most of what my dad said was the Soul Separation Array that the thin bamboo pole said, maybe his seven companions were like me in another dimension, walking into the rift of time.

But speaking of this, it seemed to remind my dad that he suddenly remembered that before entering the mountain, he heard that the villagers had met a group of strange people on the mountain.

The gang walked around the mountains all day, not knowing what they were looking at. The village is not large, and it is very noticeable to come to a few strangers, and it is inevitable that it will be impressive. It just so happened that my dad had just come to the village at that time, and this rumor also had a nose and an eye.

My dad pretended to inquire, and he actually ran into the gang on the way. Simple conversations and clichΓ©s actually involved a team of people. After all, during the period when my father entered the mountain, there were actually two teams of people on the mountain.

"This mountain is a scenic spot, what's wrong with coming to play?"

"The strange thing is that this group of people still wants to cover up and pull out another group of people, as if they are diverting the attention of others."

"Does the people in the village know that these two people are the same gang?" I asked.

"Of course the people in the village don't know, I feel it myself." My dad rubbed back twice and leaned against the stone. "Unlike the second mysterious one, this group seems to be trying to make the villagers aware of their existence. If it's a group, there's no need to be so cautious a second time. ”

"Wait, wait, we have inquired about the people in the village before, and everyone said that they have never seen such a group of people staying in the village, and the whole thing has only been seen by the innkeeper who went up the mountain to collect medicine.

Regardless of whether the two groups are in the same group or not, the two statements themselves are contradictory. ”

"yes, that's the weird thing! Now the strange thing is not how many groups of people have been on the mountain, but why the people in the mountains say different things twice before and after? ”

"Someone was bought." Yu Nian heard our conversation and leaned over and said lightly.

I looked back, "Which one do you think is fake?"

"The second time, obviously." Yu Nian said affirmatively.

"Why are you so sure?" My dad asked.

"What Mandarin did the old man tell you?" Yu Nian asked, tilting his head.

My dad recalled, "No, we brought a Mandarin speaker with us. ”

"How did he tell you about the guy's outfit and outfit?"

"He said the men weren't carrying anything with them, they were wearing the same clothes they wore when they climbed the mountain."

Yu Nian frowned, "An old man who can't even speak Mandarin will even know what kind of clothes he should wear when climbing the mountain?" ”

My dad slapped his thigh, "yes, why didn't I think of that!" Damn, I was so blinded by the fact that there was a bunch of people that I didn't have time to think about anything wrong with him. ”

What was their intention in bribing the villagers to mislead my father? Is this between these two groups, or is it also closely related to us?

My dad can be said to be very familiar with the terrain on the mountain, and he has been familiar with the road for a few days, and he has looked at every corner very carefully. In the end, I finally found the entrance to the Shizhai Mountain Palace and walked here.

As we spoke, we had stepped out of the sewer system and into a larger space.

From a distance, it is very unreal, and when you enter it, you can see that it is a hidden cave. The entrance to the cave was overgrown with weeds, and most of the entrance to the cave was blocked.

Later, when I looked down, I realized that there was a one-man thick tree in front of the cave entrance, and only one stump was left.

Looking at the cross-section of the stump, it should have been truncated recently. Although it has rained in recent days, it is not possible to tell from the dryness of the section whether it was cut off before or after the rain.

The underground here is like this, the dew is heavy in the morning, and it is very wet, so it is impossible to tell the exact time, only that it is recent.

Discovering this cave, the surprise of all of us is actually greater than the doubt. The surprise is that there is a cave under this underground palace, and I wonder why there is such a natural underground cave in the artificially built tomb?

Aside from being a little narrower, there was nothing else to be found in the cave. As we went deeper, the cave began to become quiet.

"Dad, why do I feel a little weird here?"
