Chapter 7: Reminiscences

Shouyi held a flashlight in one hand and slowly shone it into the coffin, and with the other hand he held a dog's head shovel tightly, for fear that his living breath would startle the host in the coffin.

A male corpse is enough for him to bear, if this host transforms again, it will be cornered. Under the light of a flashlight. The coffin shimmered with colorful light, and those colorful jewels, although buried for hundreds of years, have not diminished their jewels in the slightest.

Just when Shouyi was still immersed in the dream of wealth, the footsteps of "Dong Dong" and "Dong Dong" came again. At this time, Shouyi panicked, so he hurriedly picked it up, stuffed two handfuls of utensils and jewels into his pocket, and was just about to grab the third, when he accidentally touched a wooden box, and took it away.

Shouyi had just stuffed his body up and down, and when he stuffed Shouzhong's body behind him, the male corpse had already appeared in front of Shouyi.

As if the male corpse saw that Shouyi had destroyed his master's mausoleum, the male corpse actually grinned and shouted. Immediately afterwards, the sound of countless female ghosts crying in unison came into the ears again, but this time the male corpse did not wave the gun.

Just when Shouyi was still there, carefully observing the movements of the male corpse, bad luck befell him again, I don't know if the battery was exhausted, or if he was played by ghosts, Shouyi's German flashlight was actually extinguished.

In an instant, Shouyi fell into the bottomless abyss of darkness, and this time he felt scared for the first time. Shouyi stood motionless by the coffin, waiting for the male corpse's next move.

But after waiting for a while, the male corpse still didn't move, and then the female ghost's crying was gone, and the whole tomb was quiet like a silent world.

A burst of cold invaded every tense nerve of Shouyi, and Shouyi didn't dare to move in the dark, he was afraid that if he moved, it would be difficult to catch the subtle movement of the male corpse over there.

But Shouyi felt colder and colder, and this cold was different from the cold of winter, it was a kind of cold from the inside out. Gradually, Shouyi's single clothes couldn't resist the coldness that penetrated into the bones, and Shouyi thought to himself, "you X, get out." "Shouyi was about to rush out with an arrow step, but as soon as he raised his leg, he found that his lower body was no longer conscious." Not good! "

Shouyi had already expected in his heart that he had fallen for the man's evil trick again.

Shouyi thought to himself, "No wonder the male corpse can't come to kill me, it seems that he doesn't need to do it, and I will freeze in a few hours." "

After struggling for a while, I couldn't help but sigh "My life is over". Gradually, Shouyi found that he couldn't even twist his waist. Shouyi couldn't help but sigh with emotion, his three brothers have been poor since childhood. Although the art of tomb robbing was learned from the family suicide note, there was no one to guide him. The fathers and above have all been folded in the tomb, leaving the mother alone, and it is not easy to pull the three brothers to grow up, but before the three of them grow up, the mother has also left the three brothers due to years of labor and illness.

Shouyi clearly remembers that when he was 12 years old, his mother called the three of them to the bedside before she died. Warned the three of them not to rob the tomb no matter what they wanted in this life, and handed over the last piece of jade to Shouzhong and let him sell it so that the three of them could start a family.

In the end, her mother left with hatred, she hated her righteous father for the sake of money, she hated the difficulties of the world, she hated God, and she hated not giving herself time to raise the three brothers to adulthood

But in his early years, the eldest brother was loyal, only in his early twenties, and he was deceived into taking away the jade wall left by his mother. After that, the family had no money to live by, so as a last resort, Shouzhong gave up studying and chose to work for his two younger brothers to study. Fortunately, since childhood, the three of them have been strictly required by their fathers, practiced martial arts for many years, and made money with their strength. Originally, the days were bumpy for two years, but in the third year, Shouxiao fell ill, and it was a tumor that required major surgery.

But at this time, where can you still get money to treat Shouxiao? Under the repeated urging of the doctor, Shou Zhong gritted his teeth and mortgaged his only house and borrowed money to Shou Xiao for treatment. Thankfully, the surgery went well.

can face tens of thousands of debts, and the twenty-year-old Shouzhong is full of sorrow. He calculated that if he only earned money by working his own, he would deduct the living expenses of the three brothers. In his life, he couldn't pay off his debts, but under the effect of usury, he owed more and more.

At that time, Shouzhong was about to go crazy in a hurry, but the house was resolutely not sold. It is for Shouxiao and Shouyi to go to college and marry a daughter-in-law.

The sensible Shouyi proposed to drop out of school, but Shouzhong refused. As the saying goes, a dime is hard for a hero, and after being really cornered, Shouzhong opened the box, just like Dangyu, opened the sealed, Pandora's box. Since then, the three of them have embarked on a road of no return.

After opening the box, Shou Zhong got the tomb robbing experience passed down from the older generation, as well as the tomb robbing experience accumulated by several generations, maybe the natural adventurous character, and after reading it, Shou Zhong followed others to rob the tomb.

In the first few years, Shouzhong followed a group of unskilled thieves to dig up the tombs of several small officials in the Qing Dynasty and get a little money. But during this period, Shouzhong also contracted a lot of vices, eating, drinking, prostituting, gambling and smoking everything in his hands. Faced with the pressure of life, he can only constantly numb himself.

Later, Shouyi dropped out of school, because Shouyi played a small martial arts practice. Later, he was left unsupervised, so he did not study well in school and fought all day long.

In the latest fight, he put the principal's son in the hospital, and the school couldn't bear it, so he expelled him.

After dropping out of school, Shouyi became a jobless vagrant, fighting and making trouble in society all day long, and Shouzhong took him to the tomb in a fit of anger, so that he could see what he was doing every day, so that Shouyi could wake up.

Who knew that Shouyi, this kid, was born to be a good at robbing tombs, and after returning home after robbing the tomb, Shouyi also discussed with Shouzhong on how to open the coffin to prevent the corpse.

In the end, he kept his righteousness and became a part of the tomb robbers. But with the observance of righteousness and filial piety, the two of them found that after robbing the tomb several times, they found that they were similar to the ability to steal heads, so they gave birth to the idea of setting up their own door.

But the situation was complicated underground, and the two of them were really difficult to deal with, so the two had already thrown their mother's admonition out of the clouds, so under the persuasion of the two brothers, Shouxiao also gave up his studies and joined them.

In the following time, the three brothers went into the earth to dig the coffin, fighting the corpse and catching ghosts. Slowly, the three of them also accumulated some wealth, but all three of them were infected with a lot of vices. Because in the eyes of almost all tomb robbers, tomb robbing is a desperate business, and it is generally not a corner, and laymen will not easily join this work.

Therefore, the tomb robbers are drunk today, and every time they steal the treasure, they begin to squander it to their heart's content, and before each time they enter the ground, they indulge themselves fiercely, because maybe this time, they may never come back.

The three reminisced about their childhood, when their father was still around. Every time my mother said goodbye to my father with tears, I looked forward to my father's return at home every day, and sometimes in my dreams, I would call my father's name, but after my mother said goodbye, she never looked forward to my father's return.

The older Shouzhong remembers that the night before his father left, he and his mother were talking in the room.

The mother said, "Can't you do something else, guard me and the child, and live a peaceful life?" With that, he began to sob.

My father took a puff of his cigarette and said slowly, "This time it's a big tomb, I'll stop after I finish this ticket." If I can't come back, the money is hidden."

When his father went out, he passed by Shouyi, who raised his head and asked innocently, "Where is Abba going to make money this time?" "

The father said, "Abba went to Yunnan this time, Shouyi should listen to my mother at home, and Abba will buy you toys when he comes back." "

But Shouyi couldn't wait for his father anymore.
