Chapter 15: The Mystery

Chen Yun's words simply roasted me on the fire.

I'm out of line, saying beauty, it's not impossible to ask me to explain, you won't keep your promise and don't beat me into a reactionary, right?

My words made her laugh "poof", and her narrow little eyes were full of cunning, and they flashed by, strangely good-looking. I was stunned, Professor Yang knocked on the table, and said Sima Nan, can you tell me the origin of the coffin?

I restrained my expression and said that I didn't know the specific origin, and the fat man and I just happened to catch up when I promised to pick up someone's corpse.

I told the two of them how I found the coffin and how I fished out the coffin, and in the end, Chen Yun was fascinated by it, and when she saw that I didn't talk about it, she raised her eyebrows, "It's gone?" ”

I spread my hands and said that what I said was the truth, and I could swear in the name of Grandpa Mao.

Chen Yun said it, just the two of you guys who want to get rich, and you are also worthy of representing Grandpa Mao, I recorded what you said, subjectively you are not considered tomb robbers, but in fact, you did do things that you shouldn't do, so this matter can be big or small, see if you are willing to cooperate with us!

I said with a bitter face, "The matter has been explained, what do you want to do?" ”

Chen Yun's face became very serious, "Sima Nan, do you know how much trouble you have caused?" The whole village was poisoned because of you. ”

I said don't think about all the misfortunes to me, I just see the money, at most it is a smuggling crime, how can I harm the people of Niuzigou Village?

Professor Yang then said, "Do you know what the strange disease contracted by the villagers is? ”

I was curious and asked, "Isn't it the plague?" ”

"It's not!" Professor Yang shook his head and said that all the people in Niuzigou had been poisoned by corpses!

The muscles in my head jumped up half a foot high, saying what are you talking nonsense, have the people in the village ever touched the corpse, how can they collectively be poisoned by the corpse? Besides, the whole village has been poisoned by corpses, what does it have to do with me and the fat man?

Chen Yun said you relax first, don't be so nervous, this matter, you are also unintentional, now the condition of the villagers has been effectively controlled, in fact, the so-called corpse poison is not as terrifying as the legend, it is a kind of mold formed by oxidation and decay of the corpse, as long as you take antibiotics, it is reasonable and slowly conditioned, and it is a matter of time before you recover.

I said, have you ever tried glutinous rice?

Chen Yun didn't understand, said?

Professor Yang raised his head excitedly, "Sima Nan, how do you know that glutinous rice can pull out corpse poison, did your grandfather tell you?" ”

I shook my head and said no, we beg for a living on the river, and we often have to fish for corpses, and the method of glutinous rice to detoxify corpses was given to me by the previous generation of corpse workers, and he has retired.

Professor Yang said "oh", a little unwilling, looked at me and said, "Your grandfather really didn't teach you?" ”

I said that when my dead ghost grandfather hanged himself, I was only seven or eight years old, and I can't remember what he taught me, Professor Yang, listen to what you mean, you know my grandfather very well?

Professor Yang sighed, "Speaking of your grandfather, he was a legend in our team of educated youths!" ”

I gave him a sentence to satisfy my appetite, and I was about to listen to it, but Professor Yang stopped his mouth in time, "Okay, your matter is almost explained, and now there is a decision in the organization to ask you to do us a favor, after the matter is done, we will not only pursue it, but also transfer you to the county cultural bureau to work, what do you think?" ”

I said, what about this good thing? Wait, what do you want me to do?

I have been very cautious since I was a child, it is impossible for pie to fall from the sky, and even if it does, it will not hit my head.

Professor Yang lowered his head slightly, and the lenses of his glasses emitted a light under the light, "I want you to take us into the Troubled Wind Slope and find the ancient tomb in the mountains!" ”

I jumped up from my chair as soon as I "soared", "Tomb robbery? ”

Chen Yun frowned and glared at me, correcting my statement, "Comrade Sima Nan, why is your speech so ugly, we are a professional scientific research team, which has been appointed and recognized by the superiors, and there is an essential difference between us and those tomb robbers, this is called archaeology!" ”

I said, oh, that's right, the tomb robbers appointed by the state are not thieves, you have to call them archaeological research.

I said something sour, Professor Yang couldn't not understand, he smiled and said, "Your resistance is so big, it's right, your grandfather went early, you shouldn't know his identity." ”

I hurriedly said stop, why did this matter happen to my grandfather again?

Professor Yang's glasses shot a fine light, "Sima Nan, your grandfather opened a mountain to build a road more than ten years ago, dug up an underground river, caused a landslide, and finally drowned more than 20 people, do you think he was just to build roads?" ”

Professor Yang spoke very imposingly, I asked him, and suddenly he didn't know how to answer, his face changed drastically, "What do you mean, is my grandfather ......?"

"You don't want to think about it, why do you dig the tunnel so deep into the foot of the mountain to build the road? even caused an undercurrent of flooding, which shows that the underground tunnel he dug extends to at least a few dozen meters underground. ”

Speaking of this, Professor Yang's tone was a lot softer, saying that your grandfather has a mysterious background, and knows a lot of means of moving mountains and mountains, when he joined the scientific expedition team, it really opened my eyes a lot, you may not know, what topics we studied together back then, and he has been under the tomb more than you have heard.

I squinted at Ren, still wondering if I should believe what Professor Yang said. According to him, the great image that my grandfather had established in my heart from below had completely collapsed.

It's really hard for me to associate the image of a majestic shore who dares to be upright and stands up to the sky with a tomb robber.

Professor Yang said, "I know that this incident has had a great psychological impact on you, but this is the truth, you are ready to prepare, we will leave in three days, and I will find another opportunity to tell you about your grandfather's past!" ”

Professor Yang stood up, put away the documents in his hand, and glanced at Chen Yun again, "Don't lock this kid up anymore, let him out, gather here in three days!" ”

I said wait, you haven't told my grandfather what kind of inside story he was when he opened the mountain and built the road?

Professor Yang and I had an official tone, "The internal affairs of the organization, without the permission of the above, I can't reveal them at will, if you want to know the answer, go down to the grave with us, and when you get below, you may be able to find a little clue left by your grandfather." ”

After saying this, Professor Yang left with the documents, leaving me alone and standing still, stunned for a long time, with sweat on the backs of my palms and hands.

Professor Yang's understatement brought me a big mystery.

What is the origin of my grandfather, and what did he die for?

Grandpa went early, and my memory of him is very vague, but after all, this is the last relative in my life, even if it is just for the sake of flesh and blood, should I agree to Professor Yang and take them to the troubled slope?
