Chapter 093: Tomb Robbers on the Go
After Xia Xiaoqin decided what to do, she no longer dwelled on this matter.
She rode a tricycle and drove Xia Xiuxue to the town's health center to find Shen Shu.
It was pitch black everywhere outside the village at eight o'clock, Xia Xiaoqin relied on a thick flashlight tied to the front of the tricycle to illuminate, in order to save electricity, Xia Xiaoqin adjusted the gear to the lowest, and could barely see the road.
The dirt road was bumpy, the beam of the flashlight flashed and flashed, Xia Xiaoqin suddenly saw a little white reflection at a certain moment, and Xia Xiaoqin hurriedly stepped on the brake.
"What's wrong?" Xia Xiu learned.
"There's something in the ground over there." Xia Xiaoqin said as she untied the flashlight from the tricycle.
"It's not peaceful now, be careful!"
Xia Xiaoqin nodded as she jumped over the ditch on the side of the road, holding a flashlight towards the small reflective white dot.
The wheat in April was already knee-high, and Xia Xiaoqin pulled out the small reflective white spot in the wheat field, peeled off the wet soil on it, and found that it was a white jade cicada.
The head of this white jade cicada is carved powerfully, the tail is arc-shaped and convergent, the back line is raised, the carving is very vivid, and the jade quality does not have the slightest impurity, and it is worth a lot at a glance.
Xia Xiaoqin hurriedly continued to look along the wheat field, and after walking another 10 meters, Xia Xiaoqin picked up a green jade chan from the ground.
The eyes of the green jade cicada are obliquely convex on both sides, the middle is prominently in the shape of a figure-eight, the back ridge is curved flat, and the abdomen has delicate lines, the work is clean and neat, and the only deficiency is that the green jade has white spots.
Xia Xiaoqin walked another 30 meters in the wheat field, and after making sure that there was nothing else, she hurriedly turned back and joined Xia Xiuxue.
"Brother, I've picked up the funeral goods!" Xia Xiaoqin's voice was hard to hide the excitement.
Xia Xiuxue was shocked, and asked eagerly, "What is it?" ”
Xia Xiaoqin spread out her palms, revealing two jade cicadas, one white and one green.
"It's a real artifact."
Xia Xiuxue heard the teacher in history class say that the ancients liked the beautiful meaning of cicadas, and when they buried their relatives, they would put a jade cicada in the mouth of their relatives.
The two jade cicadas in front of him were obviously brought out of the tomb by tomb robbers.
Xia Xiuxue had just mentioned that the tomb robbers had fled to Anxian County, and Xia Xiaoqin picked up the jade cicada, which showed that the tomb robbers had already been here!
Xia Xiaoqin hurriedly put away the jade cicada, and the flashlight didn't care about tying it back again, so she directly asked Xia Xiuxue to hold the light in her hand, and didn't dare to stop all the way to the town's health center.
Fortunately, Shen Shu and Xia Xiaofu are still in the health center.
Xia Xiaofu had a fever of 39 degrees 8, and because the medicine failed to be fed, the doctor switched to using a hanging needle to reduce fever.
Now, Xia Xiaofu's hanging needle has not been dripped yet.
"Did the doctor say what the reason was?" Xia Xiaoqin asked Shen Shu.
"Xiaofu doesn't cough or runny nose, the doctor said it doesn't look like a cold, what is the specific reason, and we have to continue to observe."
The fever that could not find the cause made Shen Shu very worried, and for the anxious mother, the doctor's words could not play any comforting role.
Fortunately, when the needle was halfway hung, Xia Xiaofu began to have a fever, otherwise Shen Shuzhen would have taken Xia Xiaofu to the county hospital in a hurry.
Xia Xiaofu ate chubby, living like a blessing doll, and the chubby arm was not easy to find blood vessels, so the doctor pricked the hanging needle into Xiaofu's brain.
After the hanging needle was removed, Xia Xiaofu still had a white tape in the shape of an X on his head.
"You go home and continue to monitor your temperature, if you continue to have a recurrent fever, if it exceeds 39 degrees 5, you will be sent to the county hospital immediately."
The doctor's words made Shen Shu sleepless tonight, Xia Xiaoqin didn't want to add any more psychological burden to Shen Shu, so she didn't immediately tell her about the jade cicada.
When they rushed home, it was already ten o'clock at night, Xia Xiaoqin had been in the car for five hours today, and she was not idle after returning home, she was already exhausted.
Thinking of getting up at two o'clock at night to make tofu, Xia Xiaoqin hurriedly left everything behind and went to sleep.
Xia Xiuxue talked about the jade cicada on behalf of Xia Xiaoqin, and the rumors that he wanted to call the police were also relayed.
"Even if Xiaoqin doesn't come back, I'm going to go to the county seat to call the police tomorrow. Let her deal with it when Xiaoqin comes back, she will handle things more decisively than me. ”
Shen Shu was so tired by the things that happened one after another that he was cold, and his soft-hearted problem was completely changed in the past few days.
Xia Xiuxue was also very angry at the dirty methods of Zhang Quan and others, and was very supportive of giving them a heavy blow.
At two o'clock in the night, Xia Xiaoqin got up as usual to make tofu, and Xia Xiuxue accompanied her to cook the pot.
It wasn't until five o'clock in the morning that the brother and sister came out of the tofu room.
Before dawn, Shen Shu had already carried Xia Xiaofu back and forth in the hall.
"Does Xiaofu have a fever again?"
"No, Xiaofu's nose is a little blocked, I hold him, he will sleep more peacefully."
When the symptoms of a cold appeared, the cause of Xia Xiaofu's fever was found.
Shen Shu and the three of them all breathed a sigh of relief, the unexplained fever was too worrying!
Shen Shu urged Xia Xiaoqin and Xia Xiuxue to go back to the room and sleep back, Xia Xiaoqin didn't shirk, she was really tired!
This night, Xia Xiaoqin slept until nine o'clock.
Today is an excellent sunny day, but Xia Xiaoqin's mood is not easy.
After having breakfast in a hurry, Xia Xiaoqin said, "Mom, brother, I'll go to the Public Security Bureau." ”
"It's not been peaceful lately, do you want to take your brother with you?"
"I'll go by myself, it's not convenient to take people on a bicycle. Besides, it's daylight now, and the wind is beautiful, so how can anyone dare to commit murder during the day. ”
"Then don't let your guard down, be careful." Shen Shu said uneasily.
"Well, I'll be careful."
The two jade cicadas were wrapped in two pieces of cotton cloth by Xia Xiaoqin and put them in the pocket of her gown, and Xia Xiaoqin rode the women's bicycle given by Zheng Lan and shook the bell through the village.
Some people saw Xia Xiaoqin and greeted her as usual, while others saw Xia Xiaoqin and whispered to the person next to her.
Xia Xiaoqin left Xiajia Village as usual, and as soon as she left the village, she immediately accelerated and went straight to the county public security bureau.
Xia Weiye went out at eight o'clock today, and stayed on the street where the county public security bureau was.
When Xia Xiaoqin turned into the county public security bureau, Xia Weiye saw it clearly, Xia Weiye scolded secretly and ran away.
He didn't dare to go back to Xiajia Village, so he decided to go to Mahouzhuang to hide for two days.
Cao Qingyu didn't have any trouble today, and stayed in the bureau to deal with things.
Recently, it has not been peaceful, and the rampant tomb robbers have given the bureau leaders a headache.
When Xia Xiaoqin arrived at the Public Security Bureau, Cao Qingyu had just summarized the matter at hand.
"Cao Gong'an, I have something important to tell you alone."
Xia Xiaoqin's solemnity made Cao Qingyu feel that things must not be simple, and she took Xia Xiaoqin to a private interrogation room with great importance.
Xia Xiaoqin didn't go around in circles at all, and directly took out the two cotton lumps in the pocket of her gown and put them on the desk with the interrogation notebook.
"These are two jade cicadas, I picked them up in the field at the head of the village last night!"
Cao Qingyu attached great importance to the clues brought by Xia Xiaoqin and quickly reported them to the director!
What do the two jade cicadas represent?
It means that at least two ancient tombs with precious burial goods have been stolen, and the tomb robbers have fled to the territory of Anxian County!
