Chapter 13: Glory and Destruction
The last day before the tomb robbery
I asked Lao Hei, and I said, "Lao Hei, what would you do if you won 5 million in the lottery?" ”
Lao Hei said: "Buy a house and buy land, lend money to others to collect interest, hehe."
I said, "Can you be more ambitious?" ”
Lao Hei said: "Loan sharking, rolling interest, profit and profit." ”
I said, "Can you be a little more positive?" ”
Lao Hei said: "Open a guarantee company to lend money every day." ”
I said, "Can you take the long term?" ”
Lao Hei said: "Deposit in the bank and eat interest." ”
I said your uncle, completely speechless.
Lao Hei said, "What about you? ”
I said, "Me? Open a café and live a 60-year-old life every day. ”
Lao Hei looked disdainful: "Cut, you are even more vulgar." ”
I said, "I said, 'Shall we have something noble?' ”
Lao Hei said, "How noble? ”
I said, "Let's take a hundred young ladies for them to go to college." ”
The old black lewd laughed and said, "This can be had." ”
I said, "yes, I instantly feel that my personality is much more noble." ”
The sky is clear and the sun is shining, and Lao Hei and I are in a good mood as the weather.
The scorching sun barbecue ~ one ~ this ~ read ~ the novel ybdu on the earth, I usually think it's so annoying, but today it's also very cute.
I asked Lao Hei: "Where did you put the wood you bought to fix the thief hole?" ”
Lao Hei said: "It's too expensive, five meters long, a board costs more than 600 yuan, I didn't buy it." ”
I said, "I'll go, there is no fixed board, what if we go down and the hole collapses, you can't weigh it yourself?" ”
Lao Hei said: "It's okay, it's okay, it hasn't collapsed in the past two days, how can it be so coincidental that the two of us will collapse when we go down." ”
"If you're not afraid of 10,000, you're afraid of what if." I took out the only two thousand yuan from my wallet and handed it to Lao Hei: "Don't go to work in the morning, I'll take it myself, you go to repair the car and buy wood, just two boards, at least ten meters long, I had a dinner yesterday, I have this money left, not enough for you to add it yourself." ”
Who can calculate that tomb robbery also requires capital, why didn't I want to need so much money before, now think about it, there is no pure empty glove white wolf pie in the sky in this world.
Lao Hei waved his hand: "I still have spare time, I'll buy it, you can keep it." Haven't your parents disappeared again recently, leave some savings, the second elder doesn't know when he will come back. ”
Lao Hei poked my sore spot, and I was a little unhappy: "Let you take it, you can die if you don't talk nonsense!" ”
Lao Hei took the money, lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." ”
I frowned and patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay, let's go quickly." ”
I really don't know if I'm my own or paid the phone bill, my happy father and mother disappear from time to time, and it doesn't matter if they disappear for a few days, sometimes they are gone for several years, and they can't be contacted by phone, and they can't be found. This has always been a problem in my heart. Sometimes when they come back, I ask them if they still take me as their own son, they always smile and don't say a word and look very mysterious, I drop my mobile phone and smash the TV and force me to die, but no matter how I lose my temper, they just don't say it. A few days ago, I left a letter, and I left without even taking a photo. This time, I really don't know when we will see each other again, my father, mother, what kind of trouble are you doing!
I carried a stomach full of anger, carried the surveyor and put on a sunscreen suit and went down to the construction site.
In the evening, Lao Hei came back in his van, and that day the car overturned, and the entire roof was deformed, and now there are still a bunch of wooden planks on the roof, which really wronged him.
Old Hei pulled the car door and said to me sweating profusely: "Five meters long, buy six, wait for the next nail together, and there are eight meters long, the van can't pull down." ”
"Well, that's enough. You rest for a while, I'll go and cook the whole dishes, and we'll have some drinks in the evening. ”
Lao Hei smiled and wiped his face, if he didn't know him, this kid really looked like a simple man.
I drove the old black car to the town and bought four vegetables and two bottles of wine, as the saying goes, wine is strong and intimidating, I am afraid that without this wine, I dare not go to the grave.
Such an instigating thing must not be told to Lao Hei, it is too embarrassing.
On the way back, I watched the sunset, thinking that in four hours I would have to drill that terrible grave with Lao Hei, and my heart was full of apprehension, just like a student who was about to enter the examination room when I went to school, and I had no confidence.
The main thing is to be afraid of the atmosphere in the grave circle.
I searched the Internet for relevant knowledge about the tombs of the Ming Dynasty, and wanted to know the structure of the tombs of the Ming Dynasty, and the results were all the tombs of the emperors and dignitaries of the Ming Dynasty.
I had no choice but to grope and guess a little by myself.
According to the funerals I have attended, the coffins of the local people are buried in the ground, which is directly filled with soil, and a grave bag is erected on the ground where the coffin is buried, so that it can be found when worshipping ancestors, and even tombstones are rarely erected, let alone burial chambers.
Maybe the funeral rites in the Ming Dynasty were different from now, usually there will be an ear chamber in the tomb, which is what we usually call a partial room, will there be a small cemetery like this?
Since the owner took great pains to build the wall with glutinous rice, it must be used to prevent theft, and since it is necessary to prevent theft, it means that there must be a lot of good things in the cemetery. If there is a broken coffin in the tomb, who will go to great lengths to fill the grout with glutinous rice, not to mention that the price of rice was so expensive in ancient times.
When you think of glutinous rice, you have to think about one thing, you have to go out to buy vegetables, otherwise you are likely to lose another opportunity to make a fortune.
It is said that the city wall filled with glutinous rice cannot be destroyed by cannon bombardment. When we enter the tomb, if we find the ear chamber, it will be as if we have Lee Min Ho and Wang Da Hammer in our hands and it is not like tickling.
I bought ten catties of vinegar and wanted to buy more, but found that all the money in my pocket was given to Lao Hei, and I had little left. When I was in college, I studied a course of chemistry, saying that vinegar and lime will produce a chemical reaction to produce calcium acetate, and the tomb wall is usually made of glutinous rice mixed with lime.
Who said that knowledge is useless, but fortunately, I studied in college for a few more years, and I am grateful to my parents and my teachers.
When I returned to the tent at the construction site, Lao Hei had already taken a shower and prepared four snakeskin bags of lime from the construction site for the funeral goods.
He also nailed six planks together to form three pieces, ready to fix the thief hole. Lee Min Ho, Wang Da Hammer, and a hernia lamp filled with electricity were placed at the mouth of the tent.
Look at Lao Hei again, this cargo has two whips pinned to his waist, and he is carrying a construction bag with a bulging bag, and he is walking around the tent with his waist pinched like a two-hundred-and-five.
Seeing that I was back, he tilted his head at me with an expression of owe hammer: "That general, this king is ready, just wait for the general to wave his troops to the battle!" ”
I put two barrels of vinegar on the ground: "It's time for the king to take medicine, come, this is the latest brain medicine and drink it while it's hot." ”
Lao Hei took out a whip and pointed it at me: "Bah! Okay, you two dogs, today this king will represent the government and the party, and destroy you. ”
I still had two bottles of wine and four dishes in my hand, and waved at him: ", don't call my name, quickly put up the table, eat and send you on your way." ”
I saw that Lao Hei was still carrying an earthy yellow stick as thick as a crowbar on his back, and I asked him, "Lao Hei, what else is in your waist?" ”
Lao Hei carried the table and said: "When I was a child, I heard the old people say that those tomb robbers have rules, one of which is that after entering the tomb, you must light an incense first, and you must leave before the incense is extinguished, otherwise you will not be able to leave." ”
I said, "And then." ”
Lao Hei put down the table and pulled out the yellow stick: "This is a stick of incense." ”
Sure enough, it was a root incense, the kind of high incense used to worship the heavens, and it was half a meter long.
I said, "Lao Hei, are you sure that others are talking about this kind of incense?" ”
Lao Hei said, "You don't understand this, do you?" This incense burns and can't be burned overnight. ”
I put the food and drinks on the table: "You're not afraid of smoking to death?" ”
Lao Hei took out two big red candles the thickness of a rolling pin from his satchel: "You don't care, light the smoked mosquitoes when the time comes." Look here again. ”
I said, "What are you doing here?" We have a hernia lamp. ”
Lao Hei stuffed the candle back into his satchel: "People light candles, ghosts blow out the lamp, haven't you seen the ghost blowing out the lamp?" After entering the tomb, light candles in the four corners of the tomb, if the candle is extinguished, you have to leave quickly, because it is the owner of the tomb who blows out the candle, and if you don't leave, the owner will be angry, and the corpse will be transformed. ”
I said, "That's all a lie, lighting a candle is to see if there is enough oxygen in the tomb, and if there is not enough oxygen, the candle will go out naturally." Besides, your candle is too thick, let alone a ghost, even a person, and it can't be blown out. ”
Lao Hei said: "Hey, if you are prepared, you will use it as lighting, you are really boring." ”
I put the dishes on the table, opened the wine, poured two glasses, and said to Lao Hei with the glass: "Dapeng rises with the wind one day, and soars up to 90,000 miles!" Come, for the success of our brothers' revolutionary cause, let's go. ”
Lao Hei also raised his glass: "The goose goose bends its neck and sings to the sky!" Dry! ”
We laughed and toasted three times in a row.
Lao Hei said: "To be honest, I'm a little scared, when dealing with the living and the dead, I always feel like beating a drum in my heart. ”
I said, "Glory and destruction go hand in hand, there is no risk in doing anything, life is wealth, death is death, it's a big deal to start all over again, eighteen years later, we are still heroes." ”
In fact, I longed so much in my heart that Lao Hei said that he would not go down at all, and I would definitely echo him and break up smoothly, this windfall, even if it is not issued.
But Lao Hei didn't say it, and I also had some unwilling thoughts.
Lao Hei drank a glass of wine: "The road has been walked so much, and now I am really unwilling to say that I will not do it." ”
I said, "Actually, it's not as serious as you think, it's just a grave pit, look at it scares you, the sky is bright and the sun is bright, you really think there is a ghost?" ”
Lao Hei said: "Comrade Ergou, you have something to say." ”
I smiled and said, "Hehe, encourage you, encourage you." To tell you the truth, my heart is also up and down, but there is no turning back when I open the bow, and it is not what the old man should do, and I am also afraid to die. They are all students who are taught by exam-oriented education, and who are not afraid of the dead. ”
