In 1934, Jiaxu in the lunar calendar, a night in Mengqiu. At the foot of Yan Mountain, the side family grave on the bank of the Huixiang River. The silence of the night was broken by the sound of horses' hooves, and a group of bandits arrived on horseback with torches and whistles.

A leader with a male duck voice commanded the bandits to tie up and gag the family of the mausoleum guards, and covered their heads with black cloth bags. Several bandits took out arm-thick moxa ropes and lit them on torches and hung them on trees, while some bandits took out shovels, pickaxes, crowbars and other tools for tomb robbery and went straight to the Bianjia grave group......

Not far away, a tall and burly man with sideburns and beard sat at once, who looked like the leader of the bandits. This person's face was full of solemnity, and he pointed to a dirt bag in front of him with his hand, and said to the male duck beside him: "Send a brother to occupy that commanding height, fire a gun into the air, and warn the surrounding villagers, don't let a special eight son come to see the excitement!" The male duck said to the boss flatteringly: "Big brother, will the gunfire attract officers and soldiers?" The leader waved his hand: "This is the non-garrison area stipulated in the "Hemei Tanggu Agreement", and neither China nor Japan can station troops here, and there will not be half an officer and soldier within 100 miles. Tell the brethren to do it boldly! "Yes!" The male duck turned and ran towards the graves. "Wait." The leader called him back again: "Every intersection leading to here must be guarded by brothers, and if you encounter passers-by, you will be bombarded back by Lao Tzu!" If you insist on passing, you will be shot! ”

"Bang Bang" three crisp gunshots, and the people in the surrounding villages timidly closed the door, for fear that trouble would find them. I saw the bright spots of the Bian family grave flickering, and the strong smell of burning wormwood smoke spread far away.

"Big brother, this isn't it!" "This one isn't either! ”...... Several bandits reported that the tomb was opened incorrectly. At this time, the leader of the bandits took out his pocket watch, looked at it by the light of the torch, jumped off his horse and walked towards the tombs. "It's not early, we must find it before dawn!" The leader said to the bull. At this moment, a well-mannered bandit with a short gun on his back walked over, looking like a military advisor. Said to the boss: "Big brother, let's dig like this, it's hard to find it until dawn." Our target is old, and we can infer the burial direction based on the new and old coffins dug up. It is always the case that the coffin is new, so that we can find out which graves were buried first as soon as possible. So the bandits were divided into several groups, and they started at the same time from several directions, and the "military division" checked the degree of newness of the coffin and determined which piece to excavate.

"There's a slate here!" A bandit suddenly called. The "military advisor" hurriedly walked over and wiped the floating soil on it: "It's an epitaph!" Wait for me to see the age of ......"

"Boss, it's in these graves! The age marked above is less than 30 years different from what we are looking for. ”

......

"Found it!" Several bandits cleaned up the burial goods outside, carefully packing them into bags. After that, several people lifted the coffin and threw it outside, and a big man jumped off the grave, pulled out his leg and probed the bottom of the coffin, and stood up after a while: "This is it." "Hearing this, a few more bandits jumped down." Open bigger! Don't break things! The leader said. Several bandits carefully scraped the floating soil on the surface with a shovel, only to see a deep trench filled with cooked soil appear in the middle, and finally showed its true face as the surrounding excavation was carried out. A decaying wooden box was revealed, and the bandits carefully lifted it. When it was opened, it was a silk cloth that had long since decayed, and when it was brushed away, it was a sword with a sheath.

"Got it!" A bandit soldier held a sword and brought it to the boss. The boss took the sword and drew a little, and a cold light stood out in the light of the torch. The leader sneered twice and waved his hand at the male duck, who turned around and greeted: "Brothers,!" "After that, the bandits got on their horses one after another, and went away with the funeral goods, whistling like a whirlwind......
