Qin Wuyi wanted to steal jade, but he had no choice but to do so, his father's condition was getting worse and worse as the weather became colder.

In addition to the terrible pain of the wound on his leg, coughing day and night, and even vomiting blood is a common thing.

Moreover, this year's situation is poor, the harvest of the dealer is sluggish, and Xishan Village has repeatedly deducted the meager salary of the father and son from the grave sweeping, and it has reached the point where it is difficult to maintain a basic livelihood.

Qin Wuyi had to take a risk and hit the idea on the Guo family's jade pendant.

When it comes to stealing jade, Qin Wuyi has two choices, the first is to steal the living, and the second is to steal the dead.

The so-called stealing of the living is to give the jade pendant to Shun before the old grandmother of the Guo family is buried.

If you steal the dead, you have to rob the grave.

Obviously, both of these approaches are extremely risky and difficult to succeed.

There are so many pairs of eyes staring at it during the day, and the jade pendant is the most important thing, the Guo family will definitely take strict precautions, how can there be a chance for Qin Wuyi to make a move.

But if it was a tomb robbery, how could he, a six-year-old child, complete this task alone?

Besides, Dad has always been deeply ashamed of the act of robbing tombs, even if he lives in the cemetery, Qin Tong has never put his idea on the head of the dead.

But Qin Wuyi clearly knew that in Xishan Village, there were not a few people involved in tomb robbery, as long as the family had a little wealth, it would inevitably end up being stolen from the family tomb.

The robbed holes, old and new, in the cemetery are the best proof of this.

Qin Wuyi was almost certain that the Guo family's old grandmother would definitely not be able to escape such posthumous things.

Bao Buqi tonight, those Tufu who are immersed in this way are about to show their skills, and let Qin Wuyi go to fight these people for food, it is no different from going to death.

If you think about it, you still have to start early.

For this reason, Qin Wuyi had made preparations as early as last night, and he sewed a simple cloth bag on the inside of his shorts.

If you steal and hide the jade pendant in your shorts, no one will find out, as for whether you can succeed in the end, it is three points in the person, and seven points in the sky.

Click.

Dead branches on the side of the road suddenly fell from the sky.

Qin Wuyi shook his somewhat drowsy head and took a deep breath of cold air. Although he shivered again, he was much more sober.

The Guo family's house is also a landmark building in Xishan Village, and under the backdrop of a bunch of dilapidated thatched houses, the Guo family's civil structure courtyard is really conspicuous.

Qin Wuyi came to the gate of Guo's house, and there were two white lanterns hanging on the eaves, emitting a faint white light, like the eyes of two dead fish that had long been dead.

"Hey, you kid is also diligent, the broom is standing behind the door, hurry up and work, remember the movement is smaller, don't make noise. ”

A hoarse voice came into Qin Wuyi's ears, mixed with the pungent smell of wine, and Qin Wuyi frowned.

The person who spoke was called Li Lao Donkey, a one-eyed old bachelor, and a famous gambler and drunkard in ten miles and eight villages.

When I was young, I lost my family business because I was lazy, and even my wife mortgaged my gambling debts.

This person also has very unclean hands and feet, and usually steals some orphans and widows, but if he is in a hurry, he will inevitably take risks, and the consequence is that he is often caught and beaten.

Li Lao Donkey's head was missing a piece of hair, which was covered with pockmarks, it was not bald, but was dragged away by the No. 1 ruthless man in the village.

Today, the old grandmother of the Guo family is at the funeral, and naturally he is indispensable to the attendance of his number one person.

Qin Wuyi nodded sullenly, and didn't say anything, he knew the notoriety of Li Lao Donkey, and he didn't bother to deal with this person.

Picking up the broom from behind the door, Qin Wuyi skillfully cleaned it, and it was really clean and meticulous, and the broom was pressed very low, not making a sound.

The old donkey Li was squatting at the door, holding his knees with both hands, curled up in a ball, with a pair of red eyes, watching Qin Wuyi operate the work that should have belonged to him like a night owl.

With a few shrill rooster crows, the sky gradually turned white, and then it was bright.

Qin Wuyi had also cleaned the Guo family's courtyard inside and out, and stood on both sides of the gate with Li Lao Donkey, acting as a doorman.

The men, women and children of the Guo family, large and small, began to get up one after another, and there were inevitably a few noises between opening and closing the door, wisps of cooking smoke rose, and the entire Xishan Village gradually became lively.

The Taoist priests of the Wuji Sect came just in time for breakfast, and there were only five of them, all wearing dark blue Taoist robes, wearing a square scarf with Taiji diagrams painted on their heads, stepping on round cloth shoes, and carrying a deep pocket behind them, which contained bells, copper cymbals, aluminum chimes, talismans, wooden swords and other magic weapons.

The Guo family held a funeral, and almost all the villagers of Xishan Village came to help, and the eyes cast at the five Taoist priests were full of awe, which was due to the fame of Wuji Sect.

Qin Wuyi ate breakfast as he wished, but like Li Lao Donkey, he couldn't get on the table, so he could only huddle in the corner and eat quickly.

After breakfast, it was the most important burial and burial, Qin Wuyi's nerves were also extremely nervous, hiding behind the crowd, staring intently at the entire process of burial through the scattered gaps.

The coffin, which had already been prepared, was carried to the center of the courtyard by the strong men in the village and put down, and the Taoist priests of the Wuji Sect immediately started to cast spells.

Then an elder of the Guo family was responsible for cleaning the coffin, which was already very clean, to show respect for the deceased.

Subsequently, the body of the old grandmother of the Guo family, who was wearing a longevity dress, was transferred out of the mourning hall and carefully placed into the coffin.

Then, until the coffin lid was nailed, he still didn't see the jade pendant that Qin Wuyi cared about the most.

This also means that the Guo family did not wear the jade pendant on the neck of the old grandmother and bury it together.

After all, it is a priceless jade pendant, once it is buried, it is equivalent to losing it in vain, maybe it will be cheaper than those Tufuzi.

But the words have already been released, if you regret it at this time, you will lose face and become a laughing stock, the Guo family will not be so stupid.

Therefore, there must be follow-up, Qin Wuyi is not in a hurry, it seems that he has been prepared.

At this moment, the head of the Guo family glanced at Qin Wuyi, who was huddled in the corner, and Qin Wuyi hurriedly jumped up.

In addition to cleaning the courtyard, Qin Wuyi has to play his second role, which is the crying spirit, which is a major event related to his lunch.

Qin Wuyi was only six years old, and it was really easy to squeeze out a few tears, but when he threw himself on the coffin lid, he began to cry.

Subsequently, the people of the Guo family also began to kneel on the ground and bow their heads and whimper, the scene was particularly sad and touching, and even the villagers who came to help couldn't help but wipe their tears.

However, in the end, there were no tears, just pointing fingers at each other, commenting on who cried sincerely and who cried falsely, which is often a manifestation of filial piety.

In the midst of the continuous crying, the city lord of the Western Regions City arrived, accompanied by the sound of gongs and opening the way, and the sound of idlers retreating, the air was about to explode.

The city lord is a big man, and ordinary people are difficult to see in their lives, and everyone stretches their necks to see the dignity of the city lord.

Qin Wuyi can't do it, his task is to cry spirits, so he must concentrate on crying, and the sadder he cries, the better.

If he dares to raise his head, or shows a little absent-mindedness and perfunctory, I am afraid that not only will he not be able to eat lunch, but he will also suffer a severe beating!

The pan-continent kneeling ceremony is only for the three relationships of father and son, monarch and minister, and master and apprentice, unless it is a sincere bow from the heart, under normal circumstances, even in the face of people like officials, they only need to bow their hands.

Only hearing the sound of saluting and worshipping, Qin Wuyi knew that the city lord had entered the courtyard of the Guo family.

This was followed by a solemn ceremony of giving plaques, followed by the Guo family saying their thanks in unison, and the villagers of Xishan Village congratulated one after another, and even the Taoist priests of Wuji Sect couldn't help but say a few polite words.

In the midst of the congratulatory voices, the city lord gave a delicate wooden box to the head of the Guo family.

It turned out that the jade pendant was to be placed in this wooden box and then fixed on the coffin lid as a special display, so it did not have to be stored in the wooden coffin with the body.

The head of the Guo family showed a grateful look, and on the other hand, he carefully placed a piece of crystal jade jade pendant in the wooden box given by the city lord, and then carefully fixed it on the coffin lid.

At this time, I found out that the thick coffin lid originally had a finger-deep groove, which was just enough to inlay the wooden box, which showed that all this was planned by the city lord and the head of the Guo family a long time ago.

Immediately afterwards, the city lord turned around and left after accepting the generous gift from the Guo family, and the coffin should also go to the cemetery for burial, Qin Wuyi had to accompany him, and he had to cry all the way.

"Everything is going according to plan, and then it's time for the most critical moment. ”

Qin Wuyi thought nervously while crying loudly.

The coffin was carried to the cemetery, and the burial pit had already been dug, and although the Guo family was a big family in Xishan Village, they did not want to waste an extra penny on the grave of the deceased.

The burial pit is only a little bigger and deeper than ordinary people, after all, it is necessary to bury it after digging, and the good and bad of the tomb is probably only appreciated by the tomb robbers.

At the same time that the coffin was put into the burial pit, Qin Wuyi also jumped into the burial pit.

It was not to bury the old grandmother of the Guo family, but to lie on the coffin lid, showing a kind of grief that was reluctant to accompany her to death.

At this time, the burial pit is like a theater, and the coffin lid is like a stage, and Qin Wuyi is the only play, performing hoarsely.

At the same time, the villagers armed with shovels began to fill the tomb with new soil piled up around the burial pit, and these new soil would be sprinkled directly on Qin Wuyi's body, a ritual similar to that of a live burial, which is a common etiquette throughout the pan-continent.

Of course, Qin Wuyi can save himself from being really buried alive by constantly tossing and turning, but the crying cannot be interrupted, it is best to cry more and more sadly, and the more he cries, the more he breaks his intestines, and he has to keep slapping the coffin to create a heart-rending sorrow.

At this time, the only one-of-a-kind opportunity to steal jade that Qin Wuyi had been waiting for had finally come!

Because he was heartbroken crying on the coffin lid, and he had to make a gesture of beating his chest and slamming his feet, no one would notice the small movements under his body.

Qin Wuyi's heart was beating wildly, and he was finally going to carry out the action that he had been planning for a long time, he had to be fast, lightning fast, fast enough to be able to shake everyone's eyes.

Qin Wuyi also had an excellent advantage, that is, the people who came to the funeral did not have any interest in watching his crying, as long as they heard the cry from a distance, it was enough.

Even the villagers who were in charge of filling the soil were just working hard, trying to finish the task quickly and go back to eat early.

At a certain moment, Qin Wuyi's shot was like lightning.

He gently pushed open the lid of the wooden box, took out the jade pendant from it, and then quickly restored the lid of the wooden box, and stuffed the jade pendant into the cloth bag sewn inside the shorts.

Qin Wuyi completed all this almost completely in an unconscious state, he had obviously planned it for a long time, but his brain was blank, so that in a hurry, he didn't even look at what the pendant looked like.

When Qin Wuyi dragged his dirty body and bones and returned to Guo's house at the back of the funeral procession, he even wondered if he had stolen jade?

Only the faint coldness that came from the crotch of his pants gave him the necessary sense of security at all times.
