Jiefang car, the first popular truck in China, is also developed and researched by China. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Although this car has been around for decades, it was still very rare at the time, especially in the Yunnan-Guichuan region.

When I remembered that when I was a child, I inexplicably liked to smell the exhaust of the car, and a group of children chased after the car excitedly when they saw the car. Thinking about it now, it really feels ridiculous.

Sitting in the body of this Jiefang brand truck, jolting forward, not to mention the soft and hard seats. There were seven or eight of us, all of us sitting on top of the tin sheets. As soon as the car bumps, people also rise and fall, this taste, whoever sits knows it, and the ass also knows.

Except for the fifth uncle sitting in the co-pilot, the rest of the people are not eligible for such treatment. The monk had long been angry, chattering along the way.

I carefully looked at the few people brought by the fifth uncle, one woman and three men.

The elderly, whom they all call 'Uncle Li', are over fifty years old, with black hair mixed with gray, a Chinese face, and small eyes. Dressed in a black suit, in this humble carriage, it looks out of place.

Uncle Li is always smiling and looks kind. In his right hand, he holds a string of Buddhist beads, and his fingers count the beads rhythmically.

Next to her sat a woman in her twenties, dressed in a black power suit that wrapped her bumpy figure. I couldn't help but look at her, not because she was a woman, but because she had dyed yellow hair, and her hair was straight and tied into a ponytail. In this day and age, such an avant-garde and bold trend, I have seen it for the first time anyway.

The woman's face was indifferent, and her eyes were always looking at the mountains outside the car. I've never said a word to see her.

The monk kept staring at the woman, with an intriguing 'appreciation' in his eyes, and occasionally let out a **** laugh.

The other two men, men in their forties, wore thick glasses and looked like nerds who were dead readers. This person kept his eyes closed, recuperating in the car. The other was young, able-bodied, in his twenties. Tall, muscular man, no need to introduce, I probably guessed that it should be a bodyguard.

"Not to mention, this woman's figure and appearance are all of the highest quality, and the only fly in the ointment is that there is no smile on her face." After watching the woman for a long time, the monk whispered beside me.

"You only have women in your eyes." I snorted coldly and said, "When you meet for the first time, can you restrain yourself, don't always stare at others with lustful eyes." ”

"This is called appreciation, Daoye, I never look at people with colored glasses."

I didn't bother to talk nonsense with the monks, so I just closed my eyes and rested. And go on with him, not knowing when it will be the head. Now that I think about it, the bald Wu Qi is really a perfect match for the monk.

Speaking of baldness, we went back to the village for four or five days, and there was no news of him. It stands to reason that he knows so much about King Nammer's affairs that he always feels that he should also be involved in this operation.

Moreover, baldness can have something to do with the fact that we explain the affairs of King Nammer in such detail, and I am afraid that we know our relationship with grandpa. Otherwise, with the shrewd character of the bald man, would he talk to us about these things for no reason?

"I heard Mr. Chen say that both of them are disciples of Taoist masters, and this action is afraid that they need a lot of care." While I was pondering, Uncle Li said to us with a smile.

"Uncle Li is polite, listen to the senior brother, Uncle Li is the real insider. It's just that I don't know if Uncle Li is doing business or hard work? The monk asked with a gagged and unceremonious smile.

I couldn't understand their mute language, so I watched the two of them talk.

"Hey! In the past, my ancestors also did the inverted fight, but in today's society, let alone successfully digging out the treasure, it is not easy to make a move. Thanks to the ancestors who left some craftsmanship, now they have been doing the work of the sedan chair man. Uncle Li smiled slightly, with hypocrisy and politeness in his words, and at first glance he was a battle-hardened businessman.

Although I don't know what a sedan chair man is, I should literally know that he is the person who carries the sedan chair. Later, the monk told me that the sedan chair man was just a euphemism for people in this industry.

The sedan chair man generally carries the living, but the sedan chair man in Uncle Li's mouth carries the corpse. From ancient times to the present, they have proclaimed themselves corpse bearers, specializing in the trade of opening coffins and stealing corpses.

The history of the back corpse is long, it has existed since ancient times, and it is difficult to trace the age. It's just that few people are involved in this industry, after all, for ancient corpses, there are few people who need them.

In today's society, the number of people who fall to the ground has gradually decreased. Not only is it difficult to invert the bucket, but there are fewer and fewer large tombs. Even if there were, it was becoming increasingly difficult to find out the exact location of the mausoleum.

Moreover, in general, there are many organs in the tomb, and there are many strange halls, which are easy to lose soldiers and generals, and the gains outweigh the losses. Even if you succeed in finding the treasure from the tomb, it is difficult to get rid of it in today's society with a sound legal system and strong market supervision.

The back corpse is different.

The formation of ancient corpses has the influence of artificial embalming and natural influence, not only large ancient tombs are easy to come out, but also ordinary small tombs, if you are lucky, there are also a few ancient corpses completely preserved.

Compared with tomb robbing, Uncle Li believes that it is much more cost-effective to be a sedan chair driver in today's society.

"Generally, what comes out of the inverted bucket is antique, which is very valuable, Uncle Li, you get some ancient corpses, who will buy a corpse for no reason and put it at home?" Antiques still have the value of collecting, what about ancient corpses? I don't think so.

Gold in troubled times, antiques in prosperous times.

Since liberation more than 40 years ago, people's living standards have been getting better and better. Everyone would have thought that antiques, with the needs of the market, would become a hot shopping in the future.

"This little brother, could it be that he is the descendant of Chen Daorong's predecessors?" Uncle Li looked at me with a smile, and after seeing me nodding, he became closer to me and patiently explained.

"Ancient corpses, in normal times, are definitely not worth selling to ordinary people. But it can survive hundreds of thousands of years, and it can be preserved intact without any corruption, and this alone makes it of immeasurable medical value. ”

In foreign countries, there has long been a phenomenon of corpse frying. At the beginning, the advent of Egyptian mummies shocked the world, and the market for antiques has long exceeded that of ordinary antiques.

Especially China, a civilizational country with a history of thousands of years. During the Qing Dynasty, it has been closed to the country; After the fall of the Qing Dynasty, there were constant wars; After the liberation, the political confrontation between the Western bloc, led by the United States, and the Eastern bloc, led by the Soviet Union, China was again blocked.

In short, ancient China has always been in a closed state, and the outside world knows very little.

It was only more than a decade ago that China gradually eased its political confrontation with the West and had formal exchanges with the outside world.

Westerners are curious about ancient Chinese civilization, including porcelain, tea, silk and culture, all of which attract the attention of foreigners.

Uncle Li is not the only one who is engaged in corpse stealing, he is just one of many corpses.

When the first ancient Chinese corpse appeared in Western European countries, its impact was no less than that of a mummy.

It is rumored that the ancient corpse's whole body is soft and elastic, its skin is delicate and smooth, and its delicate oriental face is like a beautiful woman who has slept in the past. For a time, the title of 'Oriental Sleeping Beauty' resounded all over Europe. The thousand-year-old corpse has been valued again and again, and its research, appreciation, and collection value are not as high as those of ordinary Zhenguo antiques.

Because of this, there are more and more people carrying corpses.

Uncle Li used to be engaged in antique sales and back-to-back buckets, but now that Chinese ancient corpses are so valuable, of course he has changed industries.

Moreover, foreigners are not picky about ancient corpses, unlike antiques, but also depending on the age, the completeness of the antique and the value of the antique itself. In the case of ancient corpses, as long as you carry out a well-preserved ancient corpse, the age and identity do not matter. Because this ancient corpse has gone abroad, there will be people who will tout it and make up its identity and background.

"Tsk... It turns out that carrying corpses is still so profitable, it seems that Dao Ye and I are really backward and haven't kept up with the times! The monk was amazed and full of envy. Then he seemed to think of something, beat his chest and feet, and said loudly with regret and pain: "Oh my God! Master Dao, I've lost a lot. ”

"Oh?" The monk's roar instantly attracted everyone in the body. Uncle Li asked curiously: "I don't know why I'm annoyed, could it be that I have seen some incredible ancient corpses?" ”

"Hey! Not only have I seen it, but the ancient corpse was still a feudal king of the Han Dynasty, and the degree of preservation of the corpse really scared many people when I first saw it, just like a living person. ”

"Han Dynasty! Not to mention more than a thousand years, if you can carry the body of this king out, I am afraid that it will shock many people. Uncle Li was not interested, and replied casually.

"Who knew that the ancient corpse could be so valuable, and he was busy touching the treasure at the time, and he was afraid of turning into a corpse, so he was in a hurry, who cared about this." The monk regretted, touched his heart painfully, and felt remorseful. The monk suddenly thought of something, and said: "It's strange to say, when the ancient corpse opened the coffin, there were three layers inside the coffin and three layers outside the coffin, but soon after seeing the light, the corpse quickly turned black and rotted, and half a pillar of incense decayed into ashes and dissipated in the coffin. ”

"As soon as the Taoist chief said this, I completely believed it."

After a long time, Uncle Li didn't believe the monk's words all along. No wonder, according to the monk's character of blowing nonsense, it is indeed difficult to believe.

"So you always thought that Dao Ye was lying and bragging?" The monk glared at Uncle Li dissatisfied.

"Don't be angry." Uncle Li hurriedly apologized and explained: "It's not that I don't believe in the Taoist, but it's that it's hard to find ancient corpses now, let alone the ancient tombs of the Han Dynasty kings. ”

"Then why do you believe it now?" The monk asked with a cold snort.

"Most of the people in society look down on the industry where we carry corpses, thinking that they are doing hard work, and the sedan chair driver also came because of this." Uncle Li sighed and said: "I have fought upside down and carried the corpse, but in fact, the danger of carrying the corpse is greater than that of the upside down." ”

The reason why Uncle Li believes the monk's words now is because people who have never seen ancient corpses generally do not know that after the coffin is opened, the corpse will quickly oxidize and decay when it encounters the air.

Without corpse carrying technology, even if you can dig up the ancient corpse, it will be difficult to transport it out completely. To control the oxidation of ancient corpses, corpse transformation and other emergencies, the know-how is passed down from generation to generation by corpse bearers.

How can a layman know the doorway, so it is difficult for him to enter this line.

Uncle Li can do it, and it has something to do with his ancestors. Uncle Li's ancestors were born as Taoist priests, and they were in the business of chasing corpses, and the times eliminated corpses. In order to survive, he then started to buy and sell. Now it's not easy to mix upside down, so I changed careers again.

The Taoist priest not only knows feng shui gossip, but also deals with corpses all year round, and knows more about corpses than anyone else.

And Uncle Li's craftsmanship has been passed down from generation to generation from his ancestors. According to what Uncle Li said, anyway, it is inseparable from Taoism's skills.
