After listening to his cousin's words, Li Huizhong's expression became particularly complicated, and he lowered his head, as if he was fighting ideas. The cousin did not ask him step by step at this time, but began to talk about Li Xiaotong's various legendary experiences, how he fought with his grandmother Zhang, how he found the location of the treasure with the help of Mr. Zhao, as well as Li Yuanwai, Zhang, and the Jew.
Li Huizhong listened very carefully from the sidelines, and we all noticed that when he listened to this, his face was pious and respectful. After his cousin finished speaking, he said with emotion: "I can't imagine that Mr. Wang knows our family history and ancestors better than our descendants, I am really ashamed, I must ask you more when I have time in the future."
He brought his cousin a glass of water, then sat back in his seat, thought for a while, and continued as if he had made up his mind: "Since Mr. Wang knows everything, then I will no longer hide it from you, and I will say whatever I want." ”
The cousin's successful psychological warfare completely dispelled Li Huizhong's concerns, because of his cousin's words, Li Huizhong felt that the secret of this hidden treasure had indeed been known, especially his cousin, who had even seen the silver ingots and gold ingots in the cave, and he was hiding it, so there was no need. So, Li Huizhong put together the things about the hidden treasure.
It turned out that although Li Xiaotong and Mr. Zhao's generation often went into the cave together to get the gold and silver out, but later, both of them had families, and their children and grandchildren gradually grew up, so they began to take those treasures from the cave.
We thought that the Li family's ancestral method of stealing treasures from the cave must be the same as the Zhao family's, but after listening to Li Huizhong, we knew that this was not the case at all.
It's a lot more mysterious and incredible than we thought, and it's also full of unsolvable mysteries.
First of all, the relationship between Li Xiaotong and Mr. Zhao is also a bit unexpected to us, because we think that the two are friends in adversity, and there is a friendship between teachers and students, and the relationship between the two must have been very good. But this is not the case.
For most of their lives, the relationship between the two was indeed good, but for some reason, later in their lives, the relationship between the two suddenly deteriorated. At that time, Mr. Zhao was in his eighties, and Li Xiaotong was also in his sixties, which were two old men.
But the relationship between the descendants of later generations is okay, and they are not impressed by these two old men.
As for what happened between the two, the two families couldn't say it clearly, and some guessed that it was because of the woman, saying that Xiao Tong and Mr. Zhao's concubine had something to do. Some guess it's because of the contents of the cave.
But there is one taboo subject that the two families must not talk about, and that is about the treasures in the cave. In the Zhao family, there are only two people with the highest age and seniority who understand how the treasure in the cave is taken out; In the Li family, they used an extremely strange way to get the treasure, this way is very different from the Zhao family, the Zhao family is prosperous, so only a few people in the Zhao family know which mysterious cave their family's wealth comes from, and most of the other people still think that their family has a business in other places, and the money they get from time to time is because of the share of the family business.
But in the Li family, this is not the case at all.
The Li family all know that in the mountains behind this county, there is a mysterious place, and this place is of great significance to their Li family - it is a mass grave; The so-called mass graves mean that for various reasons, people who cannot be buried in ancestral graves will be buried there, and there are many dead babies among them, and they will also be thrown somewhere. Because there is a taboo, that is, babies who are not old enough can never be buried in the ancestral grave, they can only find a random place to throw away, and they must not be buried with soil.
In addition to infants, people who die early cannot be buried in ancestral graves, and if these people are buried in ancestral graves, it will affect the fortunes of future generations. Therefore, there are mass graves in many places, and this kind of people are buried.
In the past, there were many dead babies and premature deaths, and many hungry dogs would go there to eat the corpses of babies, and the general population felt that it was dirty and scary, so even in broad daylight, very few people would go to that kind of place, let alone at night.
Why is this place of great significance to the Li family? Because on the last night of the lunar month, in the early hours of the morning, in the crack of the rock behind a large tree in the mass grave, there will be a large package, which is full of silver ingots and gold ingots, and sometimes some jade jewelry and the like, of course, this kind of package is not available every month, but if it appears, it must be on the night of the end of the lunar month, because the last day of the month is called "obscure day" - that is, there is no moon that night, and the light is very dim.
The Li family's few heirs are actually related to this incident.
After Li Xiaotong's death, his children and grandchildren knew the secret, but the Li family was different from the Zhao family. The Zhao family is the only two patriarchs who can take the treasure, and in the Li family, as long as they are bold, they can go to the chaotic wind gang to find the package. But the Li family has one of the strictest family rules, that is, this kind of secret must not be told to anyone outside the Li family, if it is revealed to outsiders, it will definitely die. Although this matter has not been verified, the Li family believes in this curse very much.
In addition, there is a taboo about picking up the package, that is, it is strictly two people to go together, if there are two or more Li family members at the same time in the chaotic wind post on the night of the end of the month, they will definitely die.
This incident did happen, when Li Huizhong was a child, the young people of his three uncles' generation wanted to go to the mass grave to get treasures, at that time, these three people were seventeen or eighteen years old, and they were the most young and vigorous, and they wanted to challenge this taboo, so they decided to go with the three of them.
But this time, he never came back, and later people found the bodies of three people on the mass grave, and they died very miserably - the belly was cut open, and the internal organs inside seemed to have been eaten cleanly, and the scene was a mess.
Since then, for a full year, none of the children and grandchildren of the Li family dared to go to the mass grave to pick up the package.
Li Huizhong's father is relatively bold, and about a year after this incident, he was a little nervous about money, so he gritted his teeth, chose the night at the end of a month, and quietly touched the mass grave, and found that there were six or seven packages, because there were too many, he didn't finish it once, and when he went the second time, the root was flattened
