The fat man and I went back to a small bungalow we rented near Chongwenmen, drank too much wine, and slept dizzily until noon the next day.

After waking up, lying on the bed, staring at the low and low ceiling, I thought a lot, the business of tomb robbing, in fact, is not strange to me, I am sure to find some large mausoleums, money is not the most important thing for me, it can be said that I don't care about whether there is money at all, but life is always full of contradictions, and now I need money too much.

My parents are supported by the state, I have no family burden, and the whole family is not hungry when I have enough to eat, but what about my brothers who died on the battlefield, and who will take care of their parents? The cost of medical treatment and medicine, as well as the tuition fees for their younger siblings to go to school, is not enough to drink the northwest wind with that pension.

On the battlefield, it seems that everyone except me has a reason not to die, but the last survivor is me, and my life was bought by many comrades-in-arms with their lives, and I should do something for them now.

At this time, the fat man also woke up, rubbed his eyes, and saw that I was staring at the roof in a daze, so he said to me, "Old Hu, what do you want?" Actually, if you don't say it, I know that the words of the big gold tooth yesterday made your heart move, didn't it? I'm also itching in my heart, what's wrong with our brothers? I'll just wait for your words. ”

I took out the amulet given by the big gold tooth: "Fat man, don't treat that grandson as a good person, he is also in business, and he doesn't get up early if he doesn't have profits." This digging claw was worn by Cao Cao's subordinates during the Three Kingdoms, so he could give us such a valuable thing casually? He has taken a fancy to our two skills and wants to get some benefits from it. ”

The fat man was anxious: "**, I don't look like a good bird for a long time, I'll go to Panjiayuan in a while, break off the big gold tooth and throw it into the pit." ”

Having said that, but the two of us combined, I feel that we should still use each other, don't fall out with him for the time being, my character shortcoming is too impulsive, I don't think much about the consequences of doing things, I think the road of tomb robbery is feasible, Chairman Mao said that everything in the world has its two sides, good things can become bad things, bad things can also become good things, this is dialectics.

There are countless treasures in the tombs of those emperors and generals, but can it be said that these good things belong to the owner of the tomb? It's not all scavenged and exploited from the common people, taken from the people, and should be applied to the people, how can they be allowed to sleep in the ground forever with those dry bones. If you want to do it, you can make it bigger, those folk tombs are not interesting, most of them have nothing valuable, and take the things of the common people to damage yin morality.

I once heard my grandfather talk about the rules of touching the golden captain, which is very different from the tomb robbers, the tomb robbers are all digging indiscriminately, taking indiscriminately, and doing things absolutely absolutely, no matter what loyal and good generals you are, what officials are still ordinary people, who is who, there are no rules at all, and even if there is, they are all figured out by the peasants themselves, and it is not the case at all.

The captains of the gold school worked, and whenever the tomb was dug up, a candle should be lit in the underground palace of the tomb and placed in the southeast corner. Then open the coffin and touch the gold, the most valuable things of the deceased are often carried on the body, some tomb owners above the princely level, are all with beads in their mouths, covered with gold and jade, and there is a heart jade on their chests, and they have jade Ruyi in their hands, and even gems are stuffed in their anuses. At this time, do not damage the remains of the deceased, lightly touch from the top of the head to the soles of the feet, and finally leave one or two treasures for the deceased, in between, if the candle in the southeast corner is extinguished, you must put back the property in your hand as it is, respectfully kowtow three heads, and return the way it came.

Because legend has it that there are ghosts in some tombs, as for why these ghosts do not enter the reincarnation and have remained in the tombs for thousands of years, it is difficult to say, it is likely that they are reluctant to live for glory and wealth, and after death, they still stare at their treasures every day.

In the end, the fat man and I decided, fuck it, be sure to touch Captain Jin, what is not condemned by conscience, let's let the dog eat it as a conscience, no, eat half of it, huh...... Not right either. Let's look at it from another angle, it's the 80s, don't they all advocate dedication? Now it is also the turn of the princes and nobles who exploit the working people. However, the consciousness of these dead ghosts is very low, don't expect them to climb out and dedicate themselves, this kind of thing, we will take care of it, beat them in the autumn wind of the feudal ruling class, clean up a piece of gold, and divide the fields and land are really busy.

The strategic direction has been determined, and the specific tactical objectives and how to implement them will have to be carefully discussed.

In Henan, Hunan, and Shaanxi, where tomb robbery is most prevalent, the tomb is not easy to find, and it is inconvenient to do things in places with many people, and it is necessary to plant crops and build houses and other behaviors as a cover.

If you talk about the big tomb in the deep mountains and old forests, the big tomb I have seen, the first place must be the one in Niuxin Mountain, I was too young when I went up the mountain to the countryside, I didn't understand anything, judging by my current experience, the tomb should be before the Northern Song Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty, most of the fashionable mountains as mausoleums, this atmosphere has continued until the beginning of the Song Dynasty, after the Southern Song Dynasty, the national strength gradually weakened, and no royal mausoleum dared to do such a huge project.

The fat man asked me, didn't you say that Niuxin Mountain is haunted? Can you find someone who is not haunted, we don't have anything to deal with the bears and savages, but we don't know how to start when we encounter ghosts.

I said first, there are no ghosts in this world, what I told you last time may be my hallucination, second, this is our first action, you don't necessarily have to start the mountain, do you remember that many people in the swallows have antiques, let's go collect a few and sell them, so we don't have to toss hard.

On the same day, the two of us went separately to prepare, the fat man went to dispose of the rest of the tapes, and I went to the thrift market to buy some necessary tools, flashlights, gloves, masks, candles, ropes, water bottles, and the most joyful thing for me was to buy two German sapper shovels, I held the sapper shovel in my hand, and it felt like meeting an old friend.

This kind of sapper shovel was equipped by Germany with mountain assault divisions during World War II, and many of them were captured by the Soviet Union, and some of them flowed into China during the Sino-Soviet friendship period. The German-made sapper shovel is very light, can be folded and hung on the waist, and the steel mouth is excellent, not to mention digging the soil and digging rocks, even when it is dangerous, it can also be used as a weapon, and half of the enemy's head can be cut off at once.

The only regret is that I didn't buy gas masks, when the whole country was engaged in three defenses, the people also distributed a lot of 60-type gas masks, which can occasionally be seen and sold in the old goods market, but today I didn't buy them, so I can only talk about them later. In addition, there are some things missing, which can be prepared when they arrive at the ganggang camp.

It cost more than 1,500 in total, mainly because the two shovels were too expensive, 611, and the price was bitten to death, and it couldn't be drawn. In the end, I only had six dollars left, which is too bad, I don't have any money to buy a train ticket!

Thanks to the fat man's exhaustion of the tape, he returned the house we rented and sold it three rounds, which is almost enough for the round-trip fare. I went to buy a train ticket overnight, I was not yet eighteen years old when I left there, and I hadn't been back for more than ten years, and we were both a little excited to see the villagers we hadn't seen for many years.
