Chapter 68: The Place of the Graveyard

Although he touched the package in the cave, he also felt a shock in his heart, and his scalp tingled, because suddenly, he felt as if something was staring at him, and this feeling seemed to make him lose control of his body for a while.

"Whew, Whew......"

On her cheeks, which still looked immature, she couldn't help but ooze sweat stains......

On the jade-like tortoise shell, the blood jade tiger demon held his cheeks, looking helpless, and muttered in his heart, "What? Is this going to tell me ghost stories again......?"

Sitting opposite the Blood Jade Tiger Demon, he raised his head slightly, not noticing the expression of the Blood Jade Tiger Demon at all, and said to himself, "At that time, although I was very scared in my heart, I didn't run away, because in my opinion, if I was scared away like this, then I wouldn't even be as good as the man in black shirt......"

In the middle of the tomb, after hesitating for a moment, he turned his head sharply to the left.

I saw that less than a foot away, a small yellow-brown figure suddenly burrowed into the hole in the ground and disappeared without a trace.

"Whew~"

Xiao Li couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and muttered to himself, "I'll go, I was almost scared to death by a weasel!"

It turns out that the cemetery here is also the lair of the Yellow Skin, which explains why there are so many burrows here.

"Weeds are everywhere here, and weasel is infested, so obviously there are very few people coming. However, this tomb is much larger than the one in the woodland, and it must not be an ordinary grave, so why is there no one to sacrifice it? And it seems that the tomb is complete, and it is obvious that it has not been dug up, why is that? It stands to reason that it should be difficult to preserve such a large unattended tomb ......in good condition."

He looked at the tombs around him and couldn't help but be suspicious. However, knowing that there were other living creatures around him, the fear in his heart was greatly reduced. Then, he slowly pulled out the long package in the cave, and when he opened it, he saw that it was full of scattered gold and silver, women's jewelry, and some small utensils in the house, and there were no less than 100 pieces of all kinds of things, stuffed with long strips of cloth bags more than two feet long.

The man in the black shirt was just a helper of a large family, and with his monthly money, even if he had worked for hundreds of years, he could not turn these silver coins, and besides, there were not only silver coins in the cloth bag. These things were apparently stolen by him from the Lord's house when no one was around. This hole is supposed to be abandoned by the weasel and used by the man in black shirt as a place to hide his secrets.

I have to say that he is really bold and careful, there is a gloomy atmosphere here, few people come, there is no need to worry about being discovered when hiding privately, and no one can think that there will be a small vault in this kind of place, which can be regarded as an excellent place to hide privately.

He grabbed a handful of scraps of silver and stuffed them into his arms, and said fiercely, "Hmph, tell you to hit me!", but after grabbing a few handfuls, he stopped and muttered, "Isn't it no different from stealing if I do this?"

"If I had taken all the gold and silver he had kept in his possession at that time, it would have been contrary to my original purpose. Although it was a punishment for him, I also felt guilty because I was also stealing. Standing alone on top of the tortoiseshell, he thought about the events of the past and muttered to himself.

"Oh, what else do you want?" the Blood Jade Tiger Demon glanced at him angrily.

"Just as I hesitated, I saw a weasel's head slowly revealing not far away, at the entrance of another cave......

At that moment, his eyes rolled around, and he seemed to have a plan in his heart. He put back all the silver and gold in his bosom, and after much thought, he kept only a small piece of broken silver, which he intended to keep for the next few days.

"Judging by the number of items in the package, he must have been stealing for a long time. Because he is a helper, he will definitely not dare to steal a lot at once, so it will be easy for the master to detect. Because he was afraid of being found out, he would definitely not hide the belongings he had on his body for a long time, so he would send them here as soon as possible after he got his hands. ”

"In other words, he is likely to come here again in the next few days......"

The next day, he stood guard in front of the corner cake shop early, and as soon as the door was opened, he went forward and paid the woman named Ru Niang the piece of corn cake two days ago.

The girl with the dimples with a smile thought that Lili had gone away, but when she suddenly saw it, she couldn't help but be happy, but because her aunt was on her side, she didn't open her mouth to talk to Lili.

The man in the black shirt naturally would not run to the tomb in broad daylight, and he didn't have to wait there, so every day, he would stay in the alley near the corner cake shop, looking at the girl who was focusing on turning and baking the corner cake from a distance, as if under the fire, the scene in front of him was the most tireless scene in the world.

Whenever he was hungry, he would go to the shop and buy a piece of horn cake. The girl always smiled and handed the horn to Li, and didn't say much.

Ru Niang would have disdain every time she saw Xiao Li, but when she saw that Xiao Li had money, she didn't say anything.

After another two days, he finally waited for the black-shirted man who sneaked out of the crack in the door in the dark passageway. So his face was overjoyed and he quietly followed.

Taking advantage of the moonlight, I walked for several miles in a zigzag and twist before I arrived at a clearing where dozens of tombs were located.

The man in the black shirt picked up the edge of the tomb, and a skull-sized stone slab appeared at the entrance of a hole. Immediately, he reached into the hole.

"Poof~"

It didn't take long for a deep fart to come from the hole.

"Day, day, day, day......" The man, who was still groping in the hole with his right hand, shouted and jumped up.

A weasel with a wisp of white hair on its head, alertly exposed its head, glanced at the man, and fled back to the cave in an instant.

"Vomit, vomit, cough~"

Before he could curse a few words, the man turned to retching in pain. Apparently it was a fart from the weasel in the hole.

He covered his mouth with his hands and held back his laughter.

The man in the black shirt tossed for a while before he stopped, touched his head, and was speechless for a while.

"Did you forget to reset the slate yesterday?" muttered to the man after the tea, and instead crouched down and groped for the surrounding holes.

There are dozens of openings around the slate-covered caverns, some of which are still inhabited by weasels, and some of which are abandoned, but on the surface, they are not distinguishable at all.

After touching nearly ten holes in a row, he was sprayed four or five times by the weasel in the hole. With the previous lesson, he would cover his mouth and nose in advance when he reached into the hole, but even so, the filth spewed out by the weasel still made him feel extremely foul and dizzy.

After touching the tenth, the man in the black shirt was so smoked that he collapsed to the ground, not daring to move again.

After a half-stop, the man stood up, looked at the holes in front of him, and stomped his feet anxiously, but he was helpless.

I couldn't help but sigh: What's the use of putting these holes in front of me, I only need one.

"You moved the slab out of position?" the Blood Jade Tiger Demon asked, with the corners of his mouth raised.

Returning to his current reality, he nodded.

"Why are you sure that he had to use a stone slab to find the hole where his belongings were hidden?"

"On the one hand, because the tomb was large, overgrown with weeds, and there were few holes to identify, it was difficult for one person to remember the exact entrance, especially at night. Besides, if he had already memorized the location, he would certainly not have done it again and put a stone to mark it. ”

The Blood Jade Tiger Demon nodded, waiting for the Lili to continue. This story should not be over at this point, if this is the case, the Blood Jade Tiger Demon may be so angry that it kills.

"I changed the position of the slate, and I remained in the town, just to wait until that night to see him make a fool of himself. He paced around the tomb, looked at the spire in the middle of the graveyard, and after a pause, slapped his thigh sharply. After looking around, he walked away. ”

"He shouldn't give up, could it be that he has found a new clue?"

"Hmm!" he nodded, then continued, "The last time he went to the cemetery to hide the stolen goods, it was around the clock. In the moonlight, the shadow of the spire was reflected on the edge of the hole where the silver coins were hidden. It was with this in mind that he thought of coming back the next night on time, looking for the hole in the shadow of the spire......"

"I guess you're going to move that bag of silver money again, yes or no?"

"No need to move"

"Huh? Why?"

"Because I've tried to see different positions of the moon's shadows on different days, at the same hour, on different days. ”

"Well, that's true," the Blood Jade Tiger Demon said thoughtfully, "In that case, if he wants to find the property he stole, I'm afraid he will have to dig out all the weasel holes......"
