Since ancient times, the house has paid attention to sitting in the north and facing south, so this south is the front, and naturally the north is the back. There are several hills with an altitude of two or three hundred meters to the north of Nanpo Village, which are naturally called back mountains because there are no famous locals. There are many people's ancestral graves in the village are buried in the back mountain, which is very close to the village, there may be a large cemetery behind the houses of the people on the north side, every night it is surrounded by green mist, it is very seeping people, it is said that not long ago there were people who saw the dead crawling out of the grave in the back mountain.

Folk rumors have always been only those three minutes of heat, a person said a few people listened with their ears pricked up, and the people who heard it made a few surprised and frightened expressions, but also to deliberately create an atmosphere, but after hearing it, they basically forgot it, no one is stupid, and these things feel like they are made up when they hear them, that is, they listen to a lively one, and no one will take it seriously.

But this rumor is indeed true, and something did crawl out of the grave, and it happened that people bumped into it. Speaking of this, some people may naturally associate it with black copper taro sandalwood, but this Nanpo village is far away from the county, and the influence range of black copper taro is actually very small, that is, the entire county plus some surrounding places, the colorless, odorless and invisible gas is easily blown away by the wind, so this thing that cannot be explained with common sense can of course be pulled to the ghost's body, but this ghost likes to detain graves and dig graves, and the world usually gives them a resounding name, tomb robbers!

The uncle and nephew who robbed the tomb wandered around the villages and towns around Lushi County for several days, but they never dug up anything good, and they originally wanted to find a landlord's grave to dig some treasures, but who thought that the landlord's grave had already let the old farmer dig it up, they were busy in vain, so many days to get a small bronze mirror that did not know the value, the two fought several battles because of this bronze mirror, and the result did not fight to understand. In the end, this uncle Wang Chengliang had no choice but to say that he would take his nephew Wang Sheng to dig a few more tombs and find one or two more treasures, wouldn't the two be able to divide them equally!

So the uncle and nephew searched for the vicinity of the mountain behind Nanpo Village, and found that there were large graves in the back mountain. So the two of them took advantage of the darkness to go to the better places to step on during the day, and dig up the graves with stone tombstones. I used to be poor, and I didn't even have a window at home, at most it was blocked by two wooden boards. Every winter, the wind and snow leak out, not to mention the more sinful. But even if the days are sad, if there are elderly people in the family, they must follow the rules, which is the so-called traditional funeral customs. If you want to say that this person didn't know what to do with the old man before he was alive, but after death, he had to pay attention to pomp and circumstance, it seemed that it was done for the dead, but in fact it was for the living, and he had to pay attention to that stinky face when he was alive, and no one could avoid it. But in other words, at that time, even if you wanted to do a big job, it was not realistic. Although you can buy what you want with money, but the premise is that you have to have money first, for these poor people who work all year round, it is not easy to eat a hot meal, and it is still a bit nonsense to do a big job, so the traditional funeral can only be as simple as possible.

What is this simplification? It is to wear less clothes for the dead, put a few fewer pieces at the bottom of the box, and make the coffin thinner. The rest can be covered by the noisy crowd, but there is another big piece that is the tombstone in front of the grave.

According to this old tradition. After a person dies, a monument must be erected. Because the grave where the relatives are buried, one or two generations can remember it, but it will not be clear after three generations, so the front of the grave must be left with the words of the surname and name, as well as the name of the person who erected the monument, to commemorate the deceased. Even years later, this can be found. But if you want to say that this tombstone is not worth a few dollars, but if it has anything to do with white things, you have to increase the price, if the material of the tombstone is better, it will be more expensive, and ordinary people can't afford it. I really didn't have any money, so I just took a wooden board with my name written on it and stuck it in front of the grave. That's the tombstone.

Amateur tomb robbers like my uncle and nephew would not have been able to find the Feng Shui tombs hidden on the ground with their methods, and at most they would dig up the tombs of the former big families. But after experiencing the era of fighting landlords and fighting the gentry, the conspicuous tomb on the surface was basically dug up by the locals, the tombstones were broken, and the dead people were dragged out by the local lord to abuse him before he was relieved. But this is a bitter uncle and nephew, the money in their pockets is getting less and less day by day, and the idea of making a fortune by robbing tombs is getting more and more bleak.

At night, while the villagers were sleeping, the two of them went to the grave pile in the back mountain like rats. Since they were thieves, they certainly didn't dare to be blatant, so they didn't take anything illuminated, so they could only touch the black and bend over to look at the graves one by one, just to find the graves with good tombstones found during the day.

This uncle Wang Chengliang's hometown is Shandong, or his father took him to the Northeast when he broke into the Guandong, but the life in the Northeast was not easy, Wang Chengliang did not have any good intentions since he was a child, and actually did some stealing chickens and dogs, and the locals looked down on him, and later went to the barracks of the Soviet garrison to steal canned food, and was discovered by Lao Maozi, and almost didn't run away to let people shoot and spank their butts.

Wang Chengliang didn't have a daughter-in-law until he was in his forties after liberation, and he didn't know where he heard people say that the money came quickly from tomb robbery, so he thought about it. But there is basically no big tomb in the Northeast, and even if there is, the little devil has already been cleaned up, at this time he remembered his hometown, which is a good place in Shandong, and there are many dynasties and monuments, so he took a broken boat to Shandong to find his brother with the same surname, and lived in someone's house for many days. At my brother's house, I blew my beard very much, saying that I was doing business, walking everywhere, and this time I passed through Shandong so I came to find relatives. As soon as people heard how powerful he was, they asked his son Wang Chengliang's nephew to follow him out to see the world.

Nephew Wang Sheng is stupid or not smart, Wang Chengliang will do whatever he asks him to do, and he will dig other people's graves if he asks him. But after they really found the burial goods from the tomb, this Wang Sheng didn't listen to Wang Chengliang, picked up the things and turned around and was about to run, saying that he was going to run home. This made Wang Chengliang angry, he really wanted to shoot him to death with the shovel, but he couldn't do it even if it was his nephew, so he had to let Wang Sheng carry things and go to rob the tomb again.

In this back mountain, in the middle of the night, Wang Sheng didn't pay attention to stepping on a dirt bag at his feet, and fell down directly. But it's not deep underneath, just over two meters, but it stretches out like a passage underground, and it seems to be a tunnel dug out by hand. (To be continued......)
