Guanzhong.

Four people and one beast, bid farewell to Bailuyuan, and rode east. Passing by the genuine product of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, bypassing Huashan, out of Tongguan, traveling east for 100 miles between the loess in the sky, is the starting point of the Silk Road Luoyang, and now it is also the terminal station of the Longhai Railway.

Out of Luoyang Nanguan, along the Yishui road through the Longmen Grottoes, you will arrive at the famous tomb robbery village.

Several houses in front of the village were burned to the ground, and the smell of burning remained in the air. A few new graves had just been piled up, and some women and children were lying on the graves crying. Qin Beiyang carefully grasped the reins. Villagers fled to their houses or simply to the bare mountain beams. These guys are not polite to the dead, and they are terrified when they see the living.

Finally caught an old woman, Ouyang Anna got off the horse and asked where Xiaomu was? The other party was so frightened that he asked what you are looking for Xiaomu for? Anna thought for a moment and said, I'm a relative of Xiaomu's daughter-in-law, and the sister of her children is really not lying.

Finally, they found the courtyard of Xiaomu's house, and in the courtyard was a pile of smashed altars and jars. Qin Beiyang's eyes saw that they were all treasures dug up from the ancient tomb, and any thing sent to the Beijing Liuli Factory could be exchanged for hundreds of oceans.

"Are you here to find Xiaomu?" An unkempt woman, huddled in a corner, hugged two boys and said, "He's been taken away." ”

Her accent is obviously different from that of the locals in the tomb robbery village, but with the smell of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and the island.

"Amen?"

Anna squatted down and looked at her face carefully, it was once Venus on the Dharma Mountain in the East China Sea.

I haven't seen it for many years, but the ama's figure has become plump, her complexion has been tanned, and there are many fine lines at the corners of her eyes, but her hair is still as smooth as seaweed.

"I'm Anna!" She took off her veil. Anna hasn't changed much, if she weren't dressed in a mature outfit, she could still disguise herself as a female college student. Anna stroked the two boys, "You're so old." ”

She still remembered that the names of these two brothers were Ouyang Lu, and the second was Ouyang Lianfan, they were Ouyang Sicong's youngest son and Ouyang Anna's half-brother.

The sea girl snorted and said with tears in her eyes: A month ago, an army surrounded the tomb robbery village and captured Xiaomu. The villagers tried to resist, after all, Xiao Mu was the leader of the tomb robbery village, and the army fired mercilessly, killing a dozen men, burning a few houses, and then marched away. The man who kidnapped Xiaomu has a scar on his face, he is Ah Hai.

"Sure enough, it's him!" Anna asked, "Do you know where Ah Hai is going to take Xiaomu?" ”

The sea girl frowned and thought about it, as if Ah Hai had talked about "digging up the imperial tombs of the Qing Dynasty"?

"Dig up the imperial tombs of the Qing Dynasty?"

The little county king gasped, he was a Mongolian prince who had been canonized by the Manchu Qing Dynasty for generations, and if the old man of the county king heard about it, he would be angry.

"I see!" Li Longsheng said, "Ah Hai, like me, has a common enmity against the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, he was sent to Taibai Mountain from an early age and was trained to be an assassin with the mission of overthrowing the Qing court. ”

"Go to the Qing Dynasty Imperial Mausoleum!" Qin Beiyang stepped onto his horse, looked at the nine-colored glass-colored eyes and said, "Let's stop Ah Hai." ”

"Okay, let's go together."

Anna also turned over and handed the ama a hundred silver dollars before leaving, saying that it was a gift for her two younger brothers, buy some clean clothes, don't be hungry and freeze, and send them to the school to study, don't just worry about robbing the tomb and delay your studies.

The sea lady said that these two children are the species of Ouyang Sicong, the king of pirates, and would rather let them grow up to be pirates than be tomb robbers. She squeezed Anna's hand again, glanced at Qin Beiyang again, and said, "Please, bring Xiao Mu back alive." Except for digging graves, he has not done anything harmful. Now he is the father of these two children. ”

"I see." Ouyang Anna picked up the two boys and kissed them, and couldn't help but think of her daughter who stayed in Nanjing.

Out of the tomb robbery village, overlooking the quiet Yishui, Qin Beiyang said immediately: "Anna, you don't have to follow us, you go back to Shanghai to take care of your daughter." ”

Ouyang Anna was slightly stunned, although she was reunited after a long absence, Qin Beiyang was in mourning, except for analyzing how to find Ah Hai, she was always silent, especially avoiding being alone with Anna. Every night, Qin Beiyang has to look for ancient tombs to get into, shaped like ghouls, which is daunting.

Originally, Anna had mustered up the courage and was ready to tell Qin Beiyang that you are my daughter's father, and Xiao Jiuse is your biological flesh and blood. But seeing Qin Beiyang's state, why let him suffer a second thunderbolt on a sunny day? This is not good news for Qin Beiyang, it just adds endless troubles, not to mention that this is not fair to Qi Yuanshan.

She looked directly into Qin Beiyang's eyes: "You want to drive me away?" ”

"Revenge is a man's business, not a woman's." Qin Beiyang turned his head to look at the sky, "This is the grudge between me and Ah Hai. ”

"Nothing to do with me? Have you forgotten? Ten years ago, in the case of the destruction of Dharma Mountain on the Hongkou Sea in Shanghai, my father Ouyang Sicong died at the hands of Ah Hai. Anna rode forward and said loudly, "Beiyang, if you still can't find Ah Hai for revenge within three months, I will leave, please don't worry." ”

Qin Beiyang was speechless, he wanted to avenge the killing of his father and his mother and his wife, and Anna also wanted to avenge the killing of his father and the destruction of his family.

Li Longsheng patted him on the shoulder and said, "There are always strange women by your side." ”

A few days later, it was late spring, Qin Beiyang, Ouyang Anna, Xiaojun Wang, and Li Longsheng crossed the North China Plain and went north to Yi County in the northwest of Baoding. Twenty years ago, Qin Beiyang was brought here from Tianjin by Ye Kenan, a famous detective in Beijing, and changed his life ever since.

The king of the small county builds a pergola, looks west at the Bauhinia Pass of Taihang Mountain, the pines and cypresses of Yongning Mountain rise and fall like the sea, bury the four imperial tombs of Yongzheng, Jiaqing, Daoguang and Guangxu of the former Qing Dynasty, and there are three tombs and three concubine tombs, and there are many royal relatives such as princes and princesses. Passing through the flame archway, there is the majestic big red gate. The soldiers of the Eight Banners who guarded the gate back then had already fallen and scattered, and the threshold was covered with weeds. Smelling the breath of the mausoleum, the nine colors rushed to the forefront, like a tired bird returning to its nest. It has only been more than ten years since the fall of the Qing Dynasty, and the stone statues on the Shinto are already broken.

Qin Beiyang first went to see the Tailing of Emperor Yongzheng. When he was a child, he once broke into the Baoding City Tower at night and accidentally bumped into the soul of the fourth master. The four of them circled the treasure dome, and together with the nine colors' keen sense of the mausoleum, it was confirmed that the tomb had not been stolen and excavated.

They also inspected the Changling Tomb in Jiaqing and the Muling Tomb in Daoguang, but fortunately there was no sign of destruction. It's just that the smoke and vines are everywhere, and I'm afraid that in a few years, it will fall into the dust like the Ming Tombs.

Finally, I came to the Chongling Tomb of Emperor Guangxu. There are a few old banner guards at the door, who have lived in the imperial tomb for generations. The Manchu Qing Dynasty was destroyed, and the food and salary of the Eight Banners were cut off, so they could only farm and cut wood, be self-reliant, and live a depressed life, like a beggar. They saw the little prince in a Mongolian robe, as if they were seeing relatives. Timur rewarded each person with a few pieces of ocean, and asked if there were any suspicious people who had come to the imperial tomb recently?

The answer is no, the world has been in turmoil in recent years, and the imperial tomb has become a paradise. I don't know if there is Jin, regardless of Wei and Han. They don't know who is sitting in the world now, and they still think that Pu Yi, the "Long Live Lord", still lives in the Forbidden City.
