"What are you laughing at?" The rat immediately stretched its neck.

"It's true that sentient beings worship their mothers here, but do you know the Tao of Lu, what kind of feng shui saying is it for all sentient beings to worship their mothers? What exactly is the point of it? ”

"Of course I know." The rat stumbled, obviously unable to answer.

"I'm afraid what you just said was what I heard Master Yuan say on the road last time, right?" As soon as Peanut said this, the mouse was even more speechless. "Let me tell you, sentient beings worship their mothers is the saying in Tianluo feng shui, Tianluo feng shui is a big-headed feng shui, tombs and mausoleums are not included in it, it talks about the general trend of mountains and rivers, and sentient beings worship their mothers is the smallest one in Tianluo feng shui, such a place is most suitable for building temples and worshipping maternal gods, and it has nothing to do with Jizo at all."

"But the tomb of the king of the Western Han Dynasty is above, so how do you explain it? No, Mr. Feng Shui at that time didn't have your eyesight. The rat stared at the peanut unconvinced.

"It's weird." Peanut looked at the mountain above his head, and suddenly asked the mouse: "In your opinion, what are the specifications of that king's tomb?" ”

"Absolute royal tombs, I have walked through no less than twenty royal tombs, I have never seen such a big one, the tomb road alone is hundreds of meters, I calculated it later, plus those chain ear chambers where I got lost with the sixth master, this mountain is estimated to have been hollowed out." Although the mouse's expression is a little exaggerated, it doesn't look like he's bragging.

"Although there is no harm in building a mausoleum in this kind of place, it does not conform to any kind of terrain in feng shui, and ordinary people are just that, if it is a prince in the Western Han Dynasty, it is very strange."

"No wonder I don't know how to do it, but dead mouse, when are we going to go up the mountain? I've seen several mountain roads ahead. I stepped forward and asked.

"Those roads are for people to walk, and we can get where we want to go, but we have to go down the rope from the top of the mountain. If you go fast, you will be there tomorrow night. "The rat was obviously sarcastic about me.

"And how long are we going to go around the foot of the mountain?" Lao Tan also asked.

"Soon, just a dozen miles ahead, there is a road leading to the ridge." There was a strange smile on the mouse's face as he spoke, and I felt as if he was hiding something from us.

Later, I learned that the reason why Peanut was there to talk to the mouse about the feng shui of this mountain was that he did have doubts in his heart at that time, and second, he took the opportunity to give me and Lao Tan time to take a breath.

After a short break, we walked for more than three hours in the dark, going around one side of the mountain to the other. There was a rumbling stream in front of them, and several people walked over to get water and wash their faces.

"Alright, let's get ready to go up the mountain." The mouse stood up and pointed to the dark mountain forest in front of him.

I was about to stand up when Peanut said, "No, we're resting now." ”

"Ah, rest again?" The rat glanced at Peanut hostilely, and we couldn't figure out why he chose to rest here.

Before I could speak, Peanut patted me on the shoulder. "I'm so tired that I will die when I go down to the ancient tomb, and now we will rest for four hours, eat and sleep."

I really don't want to rest, but fatigue can't deceive the body, Lao Tan and I have never experienced such a trek, we are too tired. Especially Lao Tan, at this time, he was so tired that he didn't even want to speak. So, according to the arrangement of peanuts, we took out the food, ate our stomachs, and then sprayed each with mosquito repellent water, and Lao Tan and I sat on the hard stones with our backpacks to rest.

The rat threw stones at the river, and Peanut didn't look at him, but took out the three metal brick plates, as if thinking about something.

After closing my eyes for a while, I realized that I couldn't sleep at all, so I lit a cigarette and walked over to Peanut and sat down.

"One?" I handed the cigarette to Peanut, who shook his head at first, but then suddenly took the cigarette again. Looking at the way he smoked, I knew that this man must not have smoked before.

"Are you really my father's friend?" I'd like to ask him something.

Peanut followed my example, exhaled a cigarette, and then replied with a smile, "At least a few years ago, we dealt with each other. ”

"Then how did you sleep in the coffin in my cellar? Could it be that my dad locked you up? ”

Peanut's next answer was a bit strange.

"Some things can't be closed, maybe I'm too tired." When he said this, Peanut smiled even more vigorously.

"Can we stop talking about such esoteric things, can you just tell me?" I found it easy to talk to this person, but just two sentences made me feel panicked.

"I'm a troublesome person, you'd better not ask me anything, otherwise, you'll be very troublesome."

Oh my God! This guy shouldn't have read too many brainless romance novels? After only a few words, I almost gave up the desire to continue talking to this man. But I gritted my teeth and continued to ask a question.

"Peanut, what's your name?"

Peanut grinned, "You can call me Hua Ye." ”

"Phew, I still call you Andy Lau." After saying that, I got up and slapped my buttocks, ready to go to the mouse to come over and talk.

"My name is Chen Zixiang." As he turned around, Peanut suddenly whispered.

"Chen Zixiang" I said in my heart, "yes, you still call it Peanut." ”

Both of them laughed, and I threw him the pack of cigarettes and lighters, and then went to the mouse and gossiped with him. Since childhood, our teacher taught us that "language is the key to open the heart", but the first sentence of the dead mouse denied my teacher.

"Come and chat with me, tsk, forget it, Young Master Yuan, we are not all the way, I have said everything that knows the way, don't think about anything from me."

I snorted, "I want to know what kind of character my father is in your tomb robbing business?" ”

"Your father, that's quite a point." The mouse sat down and begged for cigarettes with me, so I stuffed another box of cigarettes in my pocket directly to him, "Young Master Yuan is so arrogant, talking about your father like your father Yuan Liuye, that is really one of the biggest names in our industry, do you know what your father's nickname is?" ”

I motioned for him to continue.

"Star-picker." Saying that, the mouse shook his head vigorously, "Your father's hands are really amazing, he can take any object in the coffin in the blink of an eye, fast and steady." ”

After listening to this, I couldn't help but wonder a little, "Isn't it the same to take the contents of the coffin fast or slow?" ”

"The following things, you don't understand, no matter how big an ancient tomb is, no matter how many burial goods, the things in the coffin are the most valuable, but those things are the beloved of the tomb owner, how can it be easy for others to take them. Those who are inexperienced think that they can just pry open the lid of the coffin, but most of them die in this last step. Opening the coffin is the most difficult thing in tomb robbing, and sometimes, whether it is life or death, it depends on those few seconds. And your father, it can be said that he is the most powerful of the coffin openers, like me, there are top brands everywhere in the south, and your father's is simply incomparable. ”

After I heard this, I thought to myself, "Is that old guy in rags really so good?" But more or less, I also have a little admiration for my father in my heart. When the mouse mentioned a few of my father's proud works, he couldn't help but slap his thigh, and all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred flew out with his spit.

I listened to what he said about the north and the south, and I asked him how these things were divided.

"That's all a saying, after all, it's not a thief. But there are indeed a lot of differences, the Yangtze River is the boundary, the tomb robbers in the north are good at feng shui Zhou Yi's technique, you can find the location of the ancient tomb with your eyes, you really don't have to say, but those people are not good at underground things, and they say that they talk about the rules on their face, in fact, they are not capable enough, and they can't take out a lot of spiritual weapons from the ancient tomb. We southerners are different, as long as we find the ancient tomb, most of them can give him a place at one time, and ensure that there are three lights in it after leaving. ”

Looking at the smug look on the mouse's face, I said to myself, aren't you calling yourself a bastard?

"What are we doing so much, that is because we have a lot of talents in the south, and my rats rely on their throats to eat, those who rely on their hands, eyes, nose and ears, in short, how many parts of the whole body, how many kinds of talents we have in the south." And this place in Bashu, just your father and them, are different from us, the north and the south are a little stained, but the rules of the north and the south can't control them, in fact, they are already a faction of their own, although there are few people, but there are many clan relationships, that is, the tomb robbers in these places are all family nature, catch one, and the whole family is finished. ”

The front was fine, but when I heard the last sentence, I almost got up and beat that kid.

The two of us talked a lot, and I also knew a lot of strange things about tomb robbing. When I looked up, I found that the morning light had appeared on the horizon.

Peanut patted Lao Tan's head with his hand, woke him up, and then everyone ate with their stomachs open, and then followed the mouse to the mountain.

The road that the mouse took us on was simply not the road. On slopes at an angle of more than 50 degrees, we have to grasp the weeds in one hand and then step on the rocks that protrude from the mountain with our feet, which is no different from climbing with bare hands, and there is no safety rope.

The dead rat was like a wild monkey at the front, and he climbed up with a bang, and from time to time he cut down a few gravels and smashed them on my head, and I don't know if the dog was intentional or not. The peanut in front of me deliberately slowed down, occasionally stopping to pull me and Lao Tan. I used to play rock climbing in Beijing, but now I have more than a dozen kilograms of equipment on my back, and the insects and ants along the way are desperately trying to bite my arm, making me tired and upset.

"Mouse, you're not mistaken? We, huh, we're going to climb up like this? Old Tan stopped and shouted.

I was also thinking about this in my heart, and I couldn't help but scold: "**Do you want to get rid of us?" ”

The rat leaned against a rock and smiled at us, "Look at you like that, don't come with me if you don't have the strength, let me and Hua Ye go." ”

I scolded in my heart, you really want to get rid of us.

When we climbed to the big rock where the mouse was, Peanut squinted at the mouse, "This is about sixty or seventy meters from the foot of the mountain, what do you think is the chance of a person falling from here to survive?" ”

After hearing this, the mouse smirked, "Hua Ye, don't joke with me, I didn't mean to toss you, but this road can only go this way." "Saying that, the mouse has been in front of the man-tall grass." Look there, there's a step behind the grass. ”

I looked closely, and I felt that behind the pile of weeds was a rock wall, how could there be steps?

"Steps?" Peanut also looked at the mouse suspiciously.
