After four or five hours of sleep, I got up and opened the kettle, drank a sip of cold water, and woke up most of the sleepiness at that time. The fat man and Yingzi also woke up one after another, and I mentioned the matter of the tomb to them again, and added fuel and vinegar.

"There are countless treasures in this tomb, even if this tomb is stolen, there will be a few left, and these treasures can make the village better." I said solemnly.

The fat man said, "Don't be nervous, how much is the thing taken out of the ground worth, it's not good to get lucky." ”

Yingzi nodded vigorously beside her, she has a deep-rooted belief in ghosts and gods, and she usually has to go around a big circle when she passes by the cemetery, and let her enter someone else's grave, which she absolutely can't accept.

I said: "As far as the antiques of the late Qing Dynasty in modern times are concerned, a small snuff bottle is worth hundreds of yuan, and I am sure that this tomb is not from the late Qing Dynasty, because in the late Qing Dynasty, this place has been occupied by devils." ”

The fat man still looked incredulous: "What! What the! A broken snuffbox is a few hundred dollars, you're kidding me. ”

I looked helpless, pointed to myself, saw that he couldn't reflect, so I said to him: "What did you forget my grandfather for, although you haven't seen his old man, but I have also told you many times, my ancestors were in the antique business, I think my grandfather was also able to rank in Panjiayuan, how many people want to invite him to see the baby, don't you have to see my grandfather's face is not, since I was a child, my grandfather took me to play, I followed there wherever I went, I saw a lot of good things, although there are many things in the late Qing Dynasty, but it is not worth a few dollars, only a little bit of everyone's handwriting, and before the objects used by the palace, there are very few of these things. I lowered my voice again and said, "From the Ming Dynasty onwards, that thing is valuable, even if it is a fingernail-sized stone, as long as it is beautifully carved and has historical value, the price will start at 10,000." ”

The fat man and Yingzi were stunned by what I said, I thought they still didn't believe it, I took off the jade left for me by my grandfather around my neck, showed them to them, and said: "Do you two know that this jade does not talk about its historical value, just the color of this jade, plus it is a rare variety, do you know how much it is worth." ”

The two shook their heads together.

"It takes 20,000 or 30,000 yuan to buy this jade, and plus its historical value, it will have to start at 100,000." After speaking, he hung it around his neck and put it close to his body.

The fat man swallowed his saliva, pointed to my chest and said: "Lao An, according to what you say, you are now worth 100,000 yuan, ouch my mother, my Lao Tzu has worked in the army all his life, and he has not earned so much money. ”

The fat man was moved, but Yingzi was still hesitating, I said to Yingzi: "Nine times out of ten in this tomb are palace nobles, their things are from there, aren't they all looting the people's fat and people's ointment, before the baby is taken out, let it see the light of day, then it has its value, besides, let's sell the baby, how good it is to build a road for the village, we are taking it from the people and returning it to the people." ”

Yingzi squatted on the ground, his head was doing a fierce ideological struggle, the fat man couldn't bear it anymore, pushed Yingzi and said: "Yingzi, why are you so bold, even the dead are afraid, if you don't go, I will go with Lao An, and the credit will not be yours at that time." ”

Yingzi has a strong temperament, and was pushed back by the fat man when he stood up excitedly, the fat man's center of gravity was unstable, and he fell a big fart squat, Yingzi pinched his waist and said to the two of us: "Go and go, old lady, I have been afraid of anyone since I was a child, and I don't go to the village to inquire, the village is as big as me, and I have to take a detour when I see it." ”

This is the first time I've heard Yingzi talk about this glorious deed with the fat man, and I don't care if it's true or not, since we both agreed to go, we have to discuss when to act. The fat man and Yingzi are both impatient, just do it, don't delay for a moment, the fat man and I put the basin up, and the big cake is turned into crumbs and placed under the basin waiting for the sparrow to take the bait.

As mentioned in the book, the topography of the tomb is combined with the mountain-shaped topography, and there are many tombs with mountains as tombs, but since ancient times, the ancient tombs have been built in the form of Fuxi gossip, so I don't need to elaborate on how to guess the correct location.

According to the compass and the direction of the mountain, the mountains on both sides of the valley are full of boulders, so I found a relatively soft place to start digging, digging a hole at an oblique angle of 45 degrees, and I was really nervous about the first practice.

Don't say it, the fat man really has a lot of strength, and the pickaxe was like a wheel like a car by him, and he didn't breathe when he was killed.

I joked to the fat man: "Little fatty, don't say it, a pot of meat is not eaten in vain, and the strength is good." ”

The fat man belongs to the kind of person who can shine with a little sunshine, and immediately patted his two shoulders and said: "Hey, it's not me who blows, it's just a cow now, and I can be knocked down with my strength." ”

I clutched my stomach with a painful expression on my face, Yingzi hurriedly supported me and asked, "What's wrong with you, you were fine just now, why did you suddenly ......?"

Before Yingzi finished speaking, I said: "I listened to him brag, my stomach was weak and painful." ”

Yingzi came to his senses, covered his mouth and laughed, the fat man picked up a shovel and lifted me up with dirt, and was about to separate the height with the fat man, when I heard Yingzi call us both.

"Lao An, fat man, come on, there is a hole in this area, it is old and deep, and my legs are weak." Yingzi's face was a little pale, and there was some fine sweat on her forehead.

I lay down at the entrance of the cave with the fat man to see, the sun at this time happened to shine in the hole, the hole is round and big, bottomless, surrounded by wild grass, if Yingzi didn't do anything to kick two feet and didn't find that it fell inside, we didn't have time to find out.

I look at this hole a little familiar, isn't this a thief hole, much better than me and the fat man dug, the thickness of the hole is the same, straight line straight to the ground, this pit must be thought to touch the gold predecessors. I told the fat man and Yingzi about the robbery cave again, someone must have been to this tomb, but this robbery cave is ready-made, regardless of whether there is anything in it, let's also go down to see the long insight.

Yingzi beat a drum in his heart again, if there is nothing in it, it will be a trip for nothing, in case he meets four people, what will it be. Seeing the eyes of me and the fat man looking at her, she didn't think much about it, in short, she couldn't let the two of us look down on her, in case she returned to the village to publicize it, and she would take her own reputation for a lifetime, so she agreed to come down.

Yingzi also asked, "Will this delay our search for the evil spirit cat demon?" ”

I asked her to put a hundred hearts, since we have arrived in this village, we will definitely be able to find the truth, it's just a matter of time, I let her put her mind at ease, the things in the village are big things, none of us can forget it, and besides, this tomb is in the village, in case this tomb is related to the disappearance of people in this village, isn't it also to find the answer.

When Yingzi saw me say this, she didn't refute it, and simply prepared things and prepared to go to the tomb.
