Chapter 4 The Coffin of the North Side
Ye Zhiqiu and I don't have a deep hatred, when I was a child, the Sifang pawnshop was just our two children, and the relationship has always been very good, when I grow up, it should be the reason for hating the house and Wu, she hates Ye Jiuqing for robbing the tomb, and she hates it with me.
I asked Ye Zhiqiu to enter the room, she saw the palace lord in front of the table, and her reaction was as big as just now, in fact, both of us were beaten beyond recognition by each other, and it hurt all over my body when I said a word, Ye Zhiqiu was stunned for a long time, I really don't know how to introduce her.
With her little Taoism, it is estimated that she has not even heard of the rumors of the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, and if she wants to know the news, she will not let go with her obsession with archaeology.
It took me a long time to squeeze out two words from my mouth, friend, Ye Zhiqiu next to me sneered when she heard it, she grew up with me since she was a child, of course she knows my virtue, Ye Zhiqiu probably doesn't believe that I actually have friends.
Worried that saying too much would make her aware of other things, I diverted the topic and asked about the excavation of the Warring States Tomb in Houshan, Ye Zhiqiu said that it was still cleaning up the periphery, I smiled bitterly with disdain in my heart, the officer who got the license was procrastinating, how many days have it been and I haven't been down to the tomb yet, and if I change Ye Jiuqing, I'm afraid that the things inside will be emptied early.
"Warring States Tomb? What a Warring States tomb, it is obviously the tomb of the Western Han Dynasty. Ye Zhiqiu suddenly said seriously.
Gong Jue and I were stunned when we heard this, the ancient tomb is a Warring States tomb that is clear at a glance in terms of structure and style, Ye Zhiqiu shook his head and said with some pride, it was also determined to be a Warring States tomb before the archaeological excavation, but the analysis of the soil quality should be the ancient tomb of the Western Han Dynasty.
Ye Zhiqiu also said that this ancient tomb is extremely rare, and it is inferred that the people of the Western Han Dynasty built it according to the burial method of the Warring States Period, although I am puzzled, I can also explain another thing, that is, why did Rankin, which only existed for less than 50 years in the history of the Western Han Dynasty, appear in the ancient tomb.
I was very surprised to see the palace lord's reaction, and it is estimated that he was able to finally come here entirely because he was tracking down the grave of Deng Yan, the doctor of Suiguo, how could the doctor of Suiguo be buried in the Western Han Dynasty?
I couldn't figure it out for a while, the top priority was the content of those golden texts, I took out the heavy ring and put it in front of Ye Zhiqiu, her eyes widened when she saw it, and then stared back and forth at me and the palace lord with a look of contempt.
"This is the heavy ring of the Warring States Period, it has been lost for a long time and few people know about it, where did you steal such a precious thing?"
I looked at her with some surprise, I didn't expect that this archaeology was really not in vain, and I actually recognized the origin and name of this thing at a glance, and now that the Chongming ring was held tightly by Ye Zhiqiu, I knew that the possibility of getting it back was almost zero.
"Help me take a look at the golden text above, you just need to translate the golden text." I know in my heart that I can't bear the wolf of the child. "It's yours."
Ye Zhiqiu carefully studied the heavy ring in his hand, and said that the golden text above should be translated, and estimated the key time, sat down and asked me to bring a pen and paper, and began to translate the golden text on each ring with full attention and meticulousness.
Gong Jue and I played with the toss during the day, we were already exhausted, there was only one bed in the house, I insisted with him for a while and I couldn't bear to fall asleep, woke up the next morning, opened my eyes and found Ye Zhiqiu staring at me with a surprised and strange face, and my heart was a little hairy when she looked at her, and even the sleepy-eyed Gong Jue next to me was a little uncomfortable.
"What kind of friends are you?" Ye Zhiqiu looked at me intently and asked strangely.
"General ...... Ordinary friends, what's wrong? I asked blankly.
"How did you meet?" Ye Zhiqiu chased after him.
"Your dad had to take me on a blind date, and then we met." I spread my hands and answered in a serious way.
He ...... Take you there...... Blind date?! Ye Zhiqiu was dumbfounded, and soon his expression was a little resentful, and he looked at the palace lord and asked angrily. You met on a blind date?! ”
Gong Jue and I glanced at each other, completely unable to understand why she reacted so much, and then nodded silently, Ye Zhiqiu's appearance seemed to be a little distressed, and it took me a long time before I heard her muttering in distraction: "How can you be such a person......"
I was stunned for a moment, and asked Ye Zhiqiu with a blank face, what kind of person should I be, and found that Ye Zhiqiu just sighed in disappointment, pointed to the table and said that the scriptures on the Chongming ring have been translated, and I have never seen her expression of disgust and contempt for me like now.
I have long been accustomed to raising the bar with her, but now I don't bother to pay attention to her, and Gong Jue hurriedly got out of bed to pick up the translated words, Ye Zhiqiu translated and copied the golden text on each ring on the paper, but these words have no rules at all, and I can't even find a complete and readable word.
Gong Jue is a master of the organ, I handed over the text to him, Gong Jue pondered for a moment and deduced that the scale of each ring on this heavy ring should correspond to one word, and a total of nine rings should be a sentence.
"Can you put your clothes on......"
Ye Zhiqiu's voice was full of resentment, coming from behind me and Gong Jue, and our attention was completely on the translated text, and it was only when she said this that she realized that I had forgotten to put on my clothes.
On such a hot day, it is normal for the old man to take off his clothes and sleep.
"How weird are you today, you've seen me bare-chested since I was a child, why are you reacting so much when you're not wearing clothes now." I glanced at Ye Zhiqiu, thinking in my heart that I guess I have really grown up, and I can't be as casual as before.
I put on my clothes unhappily, and I could see that Ye Zhiqiu would have wanted to leave a long time ago if it wasn't for Chongminghuan, I really don't understand why she is so unkind to see me now.
Gong Jue said that there are too many words on the Chongming ring, just like the current combination lock, to combine the correct words, if it is next to the test, it is estimated that the combination will be astronomical.
Gong Jue's eyes fell on Ye Zhiqiu's body and asked her to take a long hair, Ye Zhiqiu was probably also curious about what we were thinking about, so he reluctantly took a long hair and handed it to Gong Jue with disgust.
We watched Gong Jue carefully pass his long hair through the gap in the Chongming Ring, and then wrapped the other end of the long hair around his index finger, Gong Jue had a pair of white and delicate hands, just like Gong Yu's hands, and he told us that he could use his hair to perceive subtle changes in the mechanism by flicking the words on the Chongming Ring.
Combined with these translated words, it may be possible to open up the circle of re-enlightenment.
I heard Ye Jiuqing say that there is a superb medical skill in Chinese medicine called suspensory pulse diagnosis, and Gong Yu has practiced the same ability, but the only difference is that Chinese medicine can know the lesion through this method, while Gong Yu can crack the mechanism, it seems that Gong Jue is also familiar with this ability.
We watched from the side as Gong Jue was engrossed, and under his slightly touched index finger, the nine rings on the Chongming ring were slowly plucked by him, and when the last ring was frozen in his hand, Gong Jue breathed a long sigh of relief, and he slowly pulled out the long hair inside.
I saw that there was actually a line of smooth text arranged from top to bottom on the heavy Ming ring.
The minister cast the heavy Minghuan and was fortunate not to be dishonored.
The moment when the palace lord pushed the last word of life past.
Click!
Ye Zhiqiu and I were shocked to see that the Chongming Ring was really split into two and opened, I slowly took the Chongming Ring from the palace lord's hand, and saw a yellowed piece of paper wrapped in the axis inside.
I took out the paper from it, and wrote a sentence on the small paper, and the moment I finished reading it, my face suddenly changed, Ye Zhiqiu was curious and just wanted to stretch out my head to look at it, I put the paper in my mouth without saying a word and spit it it out.
Ye Zhiqiu stomped his feet angrily, staring at me angrily, I stuffed the Chongming ring in my hand into her hand without hesitation: "Let's talk and count, this thing belongs to you, it's none of your business here, why should you go." ”
Ye Zhiqiu pursed her lips with a resentful face, glared at me and the palace lord with Chongming Huan, and turned away indignantly, I know that she is very angry now, but what is written on the paper cannot be let her know no matter what.
"What's written on it?" The palace lord seemed to understand the meaning of my move, and waited until Ye Zhiqiu left before asking.
I sat down again, looking at the palace lord with some irresistible excitement.
"The place where the Xuanwu seal is hung in the mountains of the pearl Tibet!"
"Suizhu?!" Gong Jue was stunned for a moment, with the same shocked expression as when I saw the contents of the paper just now. "With the beads...... Could it be that it is as famous as He's Bi, known as one of the Spring and Autumn Double Treasures, Suihou Zhu! ”
The most fascinating treasure in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period is that the pearl of Suihou and the bi of Bian and Bian are all treasures, so they are easy to say.
As for He's Bi because there are a lot of rumors, so everyone knows, even children can tell the allusions of returning to Zhao, but with Hou Zhu is little known, the description of Sui Hou Zhu in the ancient book is more detailed, the pearl is full of inch, pure white, and the night is bright, such as the light of the moon, can be candle room, so it is called with Hou Zhu, and it is called the bright moon pearl.
But what is missing is often more precious, this may be the truth that rare is precious, no matter how valuable the easy-going double treasures of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States are, I think what really makes these two antiquities valuable is because of the reason that they cannot be recovered.
Needless to mention, the treasures that King Qin was willing to exchange for fifteen cities can be imagined, but unfortunately He's Bi was annihilated in the long river of history, and no one knows its whereabouts.
Suihou Zhu was taken by King Wu of Chu after attacking Suihou, but Chu was destroyed by Qin soon after, and Qin Shi Huang owned Suihou Zhu and He's Bi.
This can be verified from the literature, and this can be fully confirmed in Li Si's popular "Book of Exhortations to the Guest".
It is mentioned in the book: The jade of Kunshan is the treasure of easy-going and harmonious, and the pearl of the bright moon......
It is rumored that Hou Zhu was buried with Qin Shi Huang and was buried in the tomb instead of anointing candles.
Gong Jue and I glanced at each other, and Gong Jue said that if the clues recorded on the note in the Chongming Ring were true, then this rumor would be completely overturned, and even going back further, the Suihou Zhu that Qin Shi Huang got was very likely to be fake.
If the clues that reappeared with Hou Zhu were known to Ye Zhiqiu, she would definitely haunt me all her life, and she couldn't let her come out to make trouble at this juncture.
I hesitated to compare an inch of distance between the two fingers, this is the size of Suihou Zhu in the record, according to the description, Suihou Zhu is likely to be a night pearl, but the problem is that in the Sifang pawnshop over the years, although I have not participated in the tomb robbery organized by Ye Jiuqing, I have seen countless antique treasures.
Don't talk about the one-inch size of the Night Pearl, no matter how big it is, I've seen it, it's not a rare thing, and Ye Jiuqing won't take a second look.
The great effort to hide an ordinary night pearl is estimated to be related to the Nine Dragons of the Moon Palace, which shows that the Nine Dragons of the Moon Palace had traces of existence as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
Early the next morning, Gong Jue and I immediately set off to Luoyang, Bishan is also known as Beibi Mountain, located in the north of Luoyang City, Henan Province, on the south bank of the Yellow River, is the remaining vein of the Qinling Mountains, the branch vein of the Kuoshan Mountain, hundreds of miles from east to west Hengdan.
The mountain in the north is stretching, such as the giant dragon horizontally, the momentum is majestic, the south overlooks the Yi and Luo two rivers flow slowly from west to east, the north looks at the Yellow River like a belt, stretches for thousands of miles, this place is called the pillow mountain and the river in the feng shui.
Therefore, Beibi Mountain has always been regarded as a feng shui treasure of funeral mounds, and the leylines are unique to the dragon, and all have always been born in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and buried in Beipi.
I and Gong Jue rushed to Luoyang Beibi Mountain at noon three days later, climbed the main peak of Beipi Cuiyun Peak, the trees on the peak are lush and green, as far as the eye can see, the mountain is full of hundreds of thousands of ancient tombs of all sizes and sizes, hundreds of tall and majestic ancient tombs, dotted on the soil ridge of the mountain, the forest is magnificent.
I squatted down and picked up a handful of soil from the ground and rubbed it in my hands, the soil was hard and dense, the bonding was just right, and more than ten meters below the surface of the Beibi Mountains were such soil layers, it was basically difficult for water to penetrate and it was extremely easy to dig, it was simply a unique burial place.
I looked around thoughtfully and said to the palace lord, the tomb on the north rose in the Eastern Han Dynasty, according to the clues we got in the Chongming ring, Suihou Zhu was hidden here, and the Sui Hou Zhu disappeared at the end of the Qin Dynasty, and there were more than 400 years from the Eastern Han Dynasty.
I didn't see the palace lord answer for a long time, and when I looked up, I saw that his eyes had been staring at a few people not far behind us, I turned my head to look over, and saw those people holding a compass in their hands, looking at the posture should be looking at feng shui.
Presumably, the feng shui master who chose the cemetery here, after a few more glances, he immediately understood why the palace lord paid so much attention, the compass in the hand of this feng shui master was reversed, but he looked around with all his attention, and he never looked at the compass from beginning to end, and followed the people next to him from time to time squatting down and rubbing the soil on the ground.
I and the palace lord glanced at each other, to the north of the mountain to explore the tomb of the people are not the only us, stood up and walked a few steps ahead, surprised to find that the mountain is full of such people, a few ragged beggars, pestle with bamboo poles and broken bowls wandering in the mountains, if you meet come to worship and sweep the tomb, want to accumulate virtue for the ancestors, how much will send some money.
The beggars looked around with roe deer eyes and thief eyes, and after walking a few steps, they stopped, as if they were resting, and the bamboo poles in their hands were randomly inserted into the ground, and when they walked further, the bamboo poles they lifted were attached to the soil.
I frowned, and when these beggars walked past us, I stopped them, and I took out a piece of money from my body, and the beggar was stunned for a moment, and quickly nodded and thanked them, and I put the money over and watched them go away.
"Today, this Beibi Mountain is really lively, and there are so many earth rats at once." I said to the palace lord.
"It should have been someone who looked at feng shui before." The palace lord nodded and looked at the backs of the beggars in the distance and asked. "They're too?"
I nodded, I gave the beggar a five-yuan pen and paper, it was not a small amount of money at the time, I didn't even look at it, and the lower end of the bamboo pole in their hands was split, the soil layer on the north side is easy to penetrate, the bamboo pole inserted into the ground and brought out of the soil can distinguish the location of the tomb, the role of the bamboo pole and the Luoyang shovel have the same effect, when I gave them money, intentionally or unintentionally touched their palms, and I knew what was left with my eyes closed.
The general has beaten me for ten years, and he has the same calluses on his palms, which are traces of long-term grave digging.
"Although there is little idle land on the north of the mountain, and there are all the old tombs of the Luoyang people, but the ten tombs in the north are empty, even the tomb robbers will not be interested in this place." Gong Jue lowered his voice and said calmly. "Why are there so many grave robbers all of a sudden?"
"There is no shortage of big tombs on Beibi Mountain, and there are more than a dozen places that can be named, but these people are obviously not coming for the big tomb, they seem to be visiting the tomb." I patted the dirt on my hands and replied worriedly. "It's not a good thing that so many earth rats gather in the north......"
"You mean it's the same as our purpose?" Gong Jue asked with some vigilance.
"It's not clear, but it's very strange, these tomb robbers have arrived before us, and I'm worried that if the news is leaked, it will be a big trouble."
"The clues on the Chongming Ring mention the place where the Xuanwu seal was hidden in the north with Hou Zhu." The palace lord walked up to me and said seriously. "You're good at visiting the tomb, what does the Xuanwu hanging seal mean?"
I shook my head and signaled to go down the mountain first, Luoyang is not Chengdu, this is not Ye Jiuqing's territory, you can do whatever you want, before coming, Ye Jiuqing also specially told you that when you arrive in Luoyang, you must understand the rules, and you have to visit Chen Wen first.
He is the head of the mouse in this area of Luoyang, and Beibi Mountain also belongs to Chen Wen's land, those who just met to see feng shui or ask for food, listening to the accent are not locals, so many foreign tomb robbers are blatantly exploring the tomb in Beibi Mountain, presumably they must have informed Chen Wen.
"This hill is almost full of disguised tomb robbers, even if we have clues, most of the people who visit the tomb without permission will be discovered, in case Chen Wen investigates it, the two of us will be picked on the tendons." I said to the palace lord.
"With so many tomb robbers suddenly appearing here, doesn't Chen Wen feel that something is wrong?" The palace lord was a little worried, looked around and said.
"He doesn't care about these, there are ten tombs and nine empty tombs on Beibi Mountain, and he can't dig up any famous halls, not to mention those people before, all of them are veterans of tomb visits, it is impossible not to understand the rules, he should have informed Chen Wen, but this movement is inevitably a little too big, it seems that something is wrong." I replied disapprenanently. "Going to visit Chen Wen is a courtesy, and secondly, maybe I can hear some news from him."
Shrimp has a shrimp road, crab has a crab road, Chen Wen opened a tea house in the old city of Luoyang, next to the octagonal building in the Lijing Gate, and the people who come and go are tomb robbers, one is convenient to receive news, and the other is to hide people's eyes.
When I was a child, I followed Ye Jiuqing here, and Chen Wen came out from the street from afar, even in Chen Wen's territory, Ye Jiuqing's three words were equally good.
But now even if I stand in front of Chen Wen, I guess he won't recognize me, Ye Jiuqing has instructed, don't have anything to do with him from now on, otherwise it will be easy to be noticed by others.
Entering the tea house, I and Gong Jue chose a place by the window to sit down, it was already full of tea guests, I remember the last time I came here, after all, the tomb robbers are not visible, it is inconvenient to show up in public, there are so many people today, I suddenly thought of the tomb robbers gathered in Beibi Mountain, and it was difficult to figure out what happened for a while.
The runner came over with a kettle, smiled at me and the palace lord first, and said an authentic Luoyang old saying: "Man, what kind of tea do you drink?" ”
"Luoyang doesn't produce tea, and those who can get it are Xinyang Maojian." Gong Jue is very picky and wants the best in everything, but during this period of contact, I found that he was a very delicate person, revealing an innate arrogance.
The one who ran the hall didn't care about him, nodded with a smile, and said Wait a while, I have been with the palace lord for these days, and to be honest, the anger in my heart has not disappeared, after all, my whole body is still in pain now.
"The black words you said to me in the ancient tomb were quite slippery, I thought you were really oily, and you were just a chick after a long time." I leaned back in my chair and gave him a blank look, and said angrily.
"What do you mean?" The palace lord was still staring at me unconvinced.
The nature of this tea house is the same as Ye Jiuqing's Sifang pawnshop, which is a place to drink tea on the surface, but it is actually a handicap that people in the circle contact privately.
"If you really drink the Xinyang Maojian, then even if our trip is in vain, there is a golden mountain in the Beibi Mountain, so it's okay for us." I looked at the palace lord lazily with a look of disdain. "You don't drink the tea here like that."
"That'...... So how to drink? "Although Gong Jue is very skilled, it can be seen that after all, he has been by Gong Yu's side for a long time, and he almost doesn't know anything about the rules and tricks in the tomb robbery business.
Running the hall came back with the tea, I didn't answer the words of the palace jue, and when the running hall just took out the tea, my hand was already on the tea bowl, and the running hall looked up at me in a daze, I carelessly put the tea lid on the tea bowl, and took out a piece of bamboo that was painted black from the body, and the red was painted with a red flower on it.
This is called Liangdi, people in the industry don't come here to drink tea, those who can drink tea here are outsiders, don't want to ask anything, the black bamboo piece taken out is called Hongfei Black Piece, this is a token between Sichuan robe brothers, Ye Jiuqing is a native of Sichuan, although he is a tomb robber, he is also a person in the underworld.
The runner understood it at first glance, knowing that this was a colleague from Sichuan, and bent down a little: "Man, there is good tea in the backyard, please." ”
I got up and saw that Gong Jue's expression was somewhat unnatural, and he smiled proudly: "It's okay, after following the master for a long time, you will learn, I didn't bury you in the back mountain, not everyone is as kind as the master." ”
"You ......" Gong Jue probably wanted to have a seizure, but he couldn't find the words to refute it for a while.
Running hall took us to the backyard, opened the curtain and someone specially led the way, out of the back door of the tea house, turned a few alleys before coming to a big house, as soon as I entered the door, I saw a tall man in Guanzhong, about thirty or forty years old, sitting in the patio with a bowl of tea.
The person who led the way politely walked over and said a few words in the man's ear, and the middle-aged man looked up and glanced at me and Gong Jue casually, and Gong Jue lowered his voice next to me and asked, Is this person Chen Wen.
I glanced at him again, replied very quietly, and didn't weigh how many catties and taels I had, and we were still counting on seeing Chen Wen at our current level, and it was a great fortune to be able to see his legs underneath.
The hierarchy of the tomb robbery organization is very strict, the top one is called Zhangyan, which is the person who decides big and small things, Chen Wen and Ye Jiuqing belong to the people in this position, they are chopsticks below, and they are mainly responsible for finding out the news and supporting the pot.
After the location of the tomb is poked out, and the manpower is how to distribute and negotiate, the matter will be handed over to the legs below, who are specifically responsible for taking people to explore the tomb and dig and go down to the tomb to touch the treasure, which is done by the general in the pawnshop in the four directions.
"Spread out your hands and see." Before he finished speaking, the middle-aged man walked over slowly with a tea bowl, looked me and the palace lord up and down, and said lightly.
I spread out my hands with the palace lord, and the middle-aged man glanced at our palms a few times, which is to prevent someone from indiscriminately filling the number, but anyone who has been in the tomb has held a probe shovel for a long time, and there are special calluses in their hands, and people with a clear eye can see the depth of the calluses at a glance.
Although I followed the general and never really dug the tomb, but I also dug for ten years, and the middle-aged people looked a little puzzled, probably thinking about the calluses in my hands, I was a tomb robber in my teens.
However, seeing that Gong Jue's hand immediately had a wrong expression, staring at Gong Jue with a vigilant face, I remembered that his hands were white like a girl, and he was a boy and a girl, and he was handsome and extraordinary, of course, when he and I didn't fight, in fact, I still looked at him very pleasing to the eye, but he didn't look like a tomb robber.
"This is my friend, my parents are dead, and they follow me to the field to eat before they have a way to live." I hurriedly said to the middle-aged man with a smile on my face. "Although I haven't done it, the road is clean, and people really don't look for trouble."
"Your mom and dad just died." The palace lord gave me another bar on the spot.
"I'm telling the truth, your parents are not dead, you will be adopted?" I didn't care about looking at him with a serious answer. "You're not wrong, my parents are really dead, let's accept the reality on this issue."
Gong Jue's face I looked at it and I was red, and I couldn't attack in front of outsiders, the middle-aged man's eyes were withdrawn from Gong Jue's face, and he took a sip of tea and said: "Go out to rely on friends, since it is fate to be here, count your brothers lucky, there is a gold lord in Luoyang to ask Uncle Wen to take a team, find a Western Han Dynasty tomb in Beibi Mountain, find a gopher, it doesn't matter if you don't find it, there are more than 100,000 tombs on Beibi Mountain, and everything you dig will belong to you." ”
I was shocked, I didn't expect someone to go to Luoyang in front of us to support the pot (organize tomb robbery), and actually asked Chen Wen to come forward to make the team, it seems that this gold owner is not small, and the tomb visitors are given a yellow strip, and a gold bar is a sky-high price in those years.
I glanced at Gong Jue, I guess he also knew that the situation was serious, at this juncture, there were people in Beibi Mountain such a big battle to visit the tomb, laymen know that Beibi Mountain ten tombs and nine empty, there are really good things afraid of entering Chen Wen's hands early, and it is the turn of outsiders to worry, Gong Jue and I can only nod and take this hard errand, the situation is not clear, first touch the way to see the truth and then think about it in the long run.
"In the future, follow me, tomorrow night to go to Beibi Mountain, to save face and call me Brother Tian, see that you two brothers are still empty-handed, this can't be done, you have to go and get some line, and when you get to Luoyang, you have to buy a Luoyang shovel." Brother Tian dragged the teacup and spread out his other hand in front of us. "There are rules, since you come here to plant branches, you have to pay the money first, three hundred per person, and after you pay the money, you will be in the gang."
I sneered in my heart, and said for a long time that I wanted to pluck the goose, which is too unauthentic, and the people who come to cut the branches are the people who are suffering, that is, coolies, this is the jargon in the circle, referring to the people who directly participate in the digging of graves.
The coolie is done with the legs, if the palm eye is not present, everyone must listen to the legs unconditionally, it seems that this person called Brother Tian should be Chen Wen's legs, and the hard money has to be peeled off a layer of skin, and it is not a good bird.
I sneered in my heart, and said for a long time that I wanted to pluck the goose, which is too unauthentic, and the people who come to cut the branches are the people who are suffering, that is, coolies, this is the jargon in the circle, referring to the people who directly participate in the digging of graves.
The coolie is done with the legs, if the palm eye is not present, everyone must listen to the legs unconditionally, it seems that this person called Brother Tian should be Chen Wen's legs, and the hard money has to be peeled off a layer of skin, and it is not a good bird.
I handed over the money to Brother Tian, he actually spit in front of us, I secretly sighed with contempt, I was also digging graves, this money can also be put in my eyes, no wonder I can't make a fortune in my life.
Before Brother Tian finished counting the money, we suddenly heard the sound of fighting and cursing inside, and the wailing of things being smashed and wolves howling, and when we looked up, we first saw two people with blue noses and swollen faces stumbling out, and then a young man with a wooden stick with a scratched cheek chased after him.
"Thief, your mother, a group of melons, if you don't listen to it, you have to do it, see if I don't beat you out."
The young man was about the same age as me and the palace lord, and as soon as he spoke authentic Shaanxi dialect, he stood there with a wooden stick and seemed to be a mortal god, with a look of anger and not might.
The movement alarmed the people in the yard, and each of them rushed out to surround the young man, who didn't even blink an eyebrow, and raised the wooden stick with one hand and pointed at Brother Tian next to us.
"Don't be embarrassed, I won't dig the grave, I will go to whoever I like, return the money and I'll leave, if you don't let me, I'll smash you here."
I saw Brother Tian's eyelids jump, his hands trembled, the tea splashed on his hand, and he was completely suppressed by the young man in terms of momentum, and I even saw his calves and stomach shaking a few times inadvertently, if it wasn't for being blocked by the person who rushed out, I estimate that he would have been beaten to the ground by the young man by now.
Brother Tian saw that there were many people and the crowd had the confidence, shouting behind the crowd with his throat, I and the palace lord listened for a long time to understand what was going on, this young man was here to cut branches like us, after paying the money, I don't know what reason to regret it, I don't want to dig it down, come back to Brother Tian to return the money, look at his greedy appearance and know that it is difficult to get the money into his hands and want to take it out again.
Brother Tian was unwilling to retreat, so he asked the young man to be driven out, but the young man got angry and picked up a wooden stick and beat him all the way back.
According to the rules, it's really no wonder Brother Tian, who paid the money to join the gang and no one forced him with a knife on his neck, he was all willing, one was willing to fight and the other was willing to suffer, and of course the money would not be returned afterwards, it sounded like a young man.
"I told you from the beginning that Lao Tzu has three non-diggings for digging tombs, and you promised to do so at that time, but what kind of tombs did you ask me to dig, you said it yourself." The young man asked indignantly.
"Stupid old Shaanxi, you are digging graves, and you are still picking, three do not dig, and you are not afraid of people laughing out of their big teeth when you say it." Brother Tian's bullying voice has become louder than before. "I'll let you dig the emperor's old man's pit, can it?"
"You don't want to get your money back?" The young man didn't rub his tongue with him, and glared angrily at the wooden stick in his hand.
"Abolish this old Shaanxi for me!" Brother Tian couldn't hold his face, and with a wave of his hand, he ordered a siege.
"Wait." I took a step forward and shouted loudly, turning my head to Brother Tian. "When you go out, you are all asking for money, why bother hurting your harmony, it's not just about money, you don't need to make a big fuss, I'll help you return his money."
Everyone looked at Brother Tian, it is estimated that he doesn't want to make a big deal out of it, for a person who is suffering is really making trouble, the tomb robber will not see the light, I guess he can't afford a leg if something happens, Brother Tian hesitated for a long time and waved his hand again, and the people who surrounded him slowly retreated.
The young man stood in the middle even if he was encircled, his face did not change, he could not see the slightest fear, but became more and more fierce, I have never had any concept of money, after all, I have been in the Sifang pawnshop for ten years, and the signing is broken, Ye Jiuqing eats and stays, but whenever I have a little free time, they are dragged by them to teach me things in turn, and I have no chance to use money at all.
Before leaving, Ye Jiuqing asked the general to send a bag of things, opened it and it was full of tickets, saying that it was convenient to go out and have money on the body, and the 10,000 yuan household was already very rich that year, but the money that Ye Jiuqing gave me has not been ordered so far, but it is definitely more than 10,000, I took out the money from my body and walked in front of the young man.
He didn't have any anger towards me, he didn't look like a mess man, and when he saw me passing, he put down the wooden stick in his hand, and when I handed him the money, he suddenly asked seriously.
"You just said that you don't dig three graves, but those three don't dig?"
The young man looked at me squarely, straightened his waist and raised a finger in front of me.
The grave is filled with soil and the incense of the tomb is not dug, and the filial sons and grandsons of the people still know where their ancestors are lying, and I don't do the work of digging the ancestral graves of others.
The young man raised his second finger again, heroes and celebrities, I don't dig the tombs of the sages and ancient saints, the predecessors planted trees and the descendants enjoyed the shade, they are all people who have meritorious service to the descendants, and the relatives and enemies are happy.
When the third finger is erected, the young man's voice is straight, the grave is thin and simple The tomb is not dug, he was poor and destitute during his lifetime, and he has to make people want to be safe after death, to put it bluntly, these tomb owners have nothing when they die, and there is nothing to dig up, not to mention that such a tomb has to be dug, and there is nothing to do in life, and I don't do thankless things.
"All you asked me to dig are new graves, and it's only been a few days since I buried them, and the bones are not cold, so you let Lao Tzu dig them." The young man pointed at Brother Tian and was filled with indignation. "You are not afraid of retribution."
As soon as the young man's words came out, the people around him burst into laughter, maybe in their eyes, this young man was no different from a fool, but I didn't laugh, the young man in front of me reminded me of Ye Jiuqing.
What he taught me the most is that thieves also have the way, although the young man in front of him does not have Ye Jiuqing's ability, but the realm of morality can be on a par with Ye Jiuqing, which is impressive to me.
The young man took the money and threw down the wooden stick and turned to leave, I and the palace lord hurriedly followed out, and caught up with him in the alley, the young man looked at me and the palace lord, looked a little dazed, and subconsciously covered his pocket: "Since you gave the money, I will not return you." ”
"I don't ask you to return the money, what's your name?" I asked with a friendly smile.
"Field utensils." The young man replied cheerfully.
"Field chicken?" Gong Jue was stunned next to him, and he didn't understand for a long time.
"When you see the dragon in the field, it will become a big weapon, a field tool!" The young man glanced at the palace lord and said in an accentuated tone.
"Seeing the dragon in the field, it will become a great weapon...... "I glanced at the palace lord, and finally couldn't hold back laughing, mainly because the name is too funny, although the field is heroic, but there is always a field chicken jumping in the field in my mind, and it is also an unruly field chicken.
Obviously, Tian Qi is not a person who is good at joking, even if Gong Jue and I leaned back and back, he didn't react at all on his face, just raised his hand and clenched his fist and suddenly exerted force, and hit the stone wall of the alley with a heavy punch.
When he let go of his hand, the old stone wall was cracked by him, and he still looked at us with an unchanged face.
"Call me by the wrong name again, be such a stone!"
Gong Jue and I were stunned for a moment, and finally managed to suppress our laughter, but looking at his face with no expression change in the general appearance of playing cards, and thinking of his name, Gong Jue and I laughed out loud almost at the same time.
"Also...... It's still a hot field chicken......" Gong Jue tried to control himself from laughing, and he almost covered his mouth to say to me.
I heard Gong Jue's words next to me, and I was about to laugh out of my eyes, Tian Qi seemed to have no way to take the two of us, turned around and wanted to leave, but I stopped and asked with a smile.
"I think you're also digging graves, so why don't you join us."
"If you don't dig it, if you want to dig it, you won't dig it here, the tombs on the north mountain have already been dug up, and those people are now digging even the tombs that have just been buried for a few years." Tian Qi shook his head and replied resolutely. "I also admit to harming yin and virtue, and I won't do anything that hurts heaven and reason."
"Don't worry, with us, we promise not to touch your three non-digging, and you can only suffer at best if you change places, and you won't make any money in the end." I said solemnly behind Tian Qi. "Follow us and take you to the big ticket."
"Steal what?" Tian Qi slowly stopped, turned to look at me and Gong Jue and asked for a long time.
"Sui Hou Zhu."
Tian Qi was stunned for a moment, and walked towards us again, I saw a smile at the corner of his mouth for the first time, revealing sophisticated shrewdness, and once again reminded me of Ye Jiuqing, he didn't even question what I said, after all, the starting point is the person who follows Hou Zhu, and the tomb to be dug will not be low to anywhere.
"Since we're partnering, let's talk about how to divide the ...... first" Tian Qi made a money counting gesture in his hand, the shrewdness in his smile was completely incompatible with his loyal appearance, and I always had a vague feeling of seeing Ye Jiuqing.
