Chapter 377: The Rich Man's Grave
Ah Cai and I hid in the corner of the room, and we approached the side of the door to prevent an emergency from escaping.
In a few moments, a flap appeared in the center of the room, and the loess on the top of the flap loosened, revealing a deep hole in the black.
A hand was stretched out from the deep hole, holding a pine oil lamp and putting it on the ground, and then a person crawled out, and after this person came up, he reached out and pulled up an old man from under the black hole.
Looking at the vicissitudes of this old man's face, full of dense folds, even if he climbed up from the hole, it was quite difficult.
"Dad, we'll be digging our hole in two days. The young man said.
The old man coughed a few times and sighed: "If you get the following things, I can help you talk about the Han family's girl next year, she is a famous beauty in our village, and she is diligent and capable." ”
"Hey, that's not in a hurry, I just want to change our broken house first, and then go get some land, and we will be the landlord again." When the time comes, what kind of beauties won't take the initiative to come to the door. ”
The old man slapped the young man fiercely: "Little bastard, tell you not to be too public, if your uncle knows about it, you will have to scold me to death." ”
"That old guy, he knows a fart, and he said that the things down here can't be moved, and we've been doing it for so many days, hasn't anything happened?"
"He's a capable man, if we don't have his talisman in our hands, do I dare you dig it?" the old man said, becoming a little anxious: "Forget it, go to bed early, go down early tomorrow, and try to dig him up." ”
I listened to it and it was funny, but I didn't know what the two were digging, but it didn't sound like a good thing.
At this time, I don't know if Ah Cai is crazy, she suddenly got up, approached the old man in two steps, and stared at the old man in a daze.
When the old man saw her, he didn't react to what was going on, and when he came to his senses, he squatted in the corner of the wall: "Who?"
"Your aunt and me, what are you doing here, old man, coming out of the ground in the middle of the night to scare a few people to death?" said Acai.
The young man immediately picked up the shovel in his hand and approached Ah Cai's side: "Who are you and how did you get in?"
"I heard that this house was going to be sold, so I came to see it, and I wanted to buy the whole yard. ”
Seeing that Acai was a woman, the two of them relaxed a little, and when I got up, they became a little nervous.
"Don't be afraid, we don't care what you dig, we're here to inquire about individuals. I said.
The old man relaxed when he saw that we had no ill will, and I reached out and helped the old man up and sat down on the chair.
The young man immediately ran to the old man and pulled my hand away: "Don't touch my father, are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's just a little scary. The old man then said to Ah Cai: "You said that you are a girl's house, how can you still come to see the house in the middle of the night, and besides, this is my house, who did you hear say that it was going to be sold?" ”
The young man said, "Dad, don't tell them this yet, you were scared just now, and they will have to pay for it." Then he turned his head to look at Ah Cai and said, "Stinky girl, you scared my father, how do you say to compensate us?"
When I heard him say this, I couldn't help but laugh secretly, this guy is really good at touching porcelain, and this can be relied on.
"How can I compensate my wife, marry you, and beat you eight times a day!" said Ah Cai.
I stopped her and said, "Get down to business and ask him about your friend." ”
When the old man heard Ah Cai's words, he immediately became energetic, got up and said, "Don't say it, girl, your appearance is not bad, and it is not impossible to marry my big tiger." ”
I sneered and said, "It seems that you have found your mother-in-law's house." ”
Ah Cai glared at me fiercely and asked the old man: "You are really father and son, and your ability to rely on the side is really powerful, I have something to ask you." ”
When it comes to talking about marriage, the attitude of the old man and the young man is much better, and they seem to have forgotten all about the fact that we entered their room before.
A smile appeared on the old man's face: "Girl, what did you say?"
"Blind Sun is a relative of your family, right?" asked Ah Cai.
When he heard this name, the old man's face instantly sank and he stared at us. He said, "Who are you, and how can you come to me to find him?"
"I'm an old friend of his, and I just wanted to ask him to come out and do us a favor!"
The old man snorted: "Friends with him? As far as I know, he doesn't have any friends, except for those who ask him for help, he can be called friends, I'm afraid they all do that, right?"
I listened to the old man, I should know what we do.
I said, "Yes, if the old man knows his whereabouts, please let us know." ”
The old man shook his head: "I don't know about this, he is elusive all day long, and it doesn't seem easy to find him." ”
Dahu smiled: "My uncle is a man who has no fixed place, and it is not easy to find him. ”
I asked, "But what did you just hear about digging something, what would happen if he found out, and since he was out of nowhere, what scruples do you have?"
"Uh!" the old man's eyes flickered, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
I knew that there must be other reasons for this, so I pulled Ah Cai to turn around and walk out.
When the big tiger saw that we were leaving, he immediately said: "Hey, girl, what we just said, we are not joking, if you want, you can really marry me, and I will treat you well." ”
"You're crazy, can you control your aunt, let's find your sister of the Han family. Acai said.
I said, "If you want to marry someone, you won't tell us anything, and those who are not sincere will not come and go, and you will take your leave." ”
The old man got up and said, "Wait, it's actually okay to tell you, but I have one condition!"
"Oh, if you ask someone if you want conditions, then you can tell me!" I said.
The old man said: "Since you are all doing that, I want to ask you for a favor, as long as you agree, I will help you find my second brother." ”
I laughed and said, "You want us to dig a hole for you, right?"
"Yes, because my second brother didn't let us dig that hole, saying that if we moved the things below, our family would be unlucky, and I knew he must have a way to keep us from being unlucky, but he wouldn't let us do it. ”
"You want me to help you stay out of luck?"
The old man nodded and said: "Yes, you must also know the methods of my second brother, others don't believe his words, I believe them." ”
"To be honest, I don't want to do such a thing, but it doesn't hurt to help you in order to find him. I then asked, "But you'll have to tell me how I can find him!"
The old man smiled: "It's simple, you help me find something, and he will naturally appear." ”
I simply believed him, even if I had to wait, then I wouldn't waste time. ???
That night, Ah Cai and I took the big tiger into the hole they had dug.
After entering the cave, I was speechless, I don't know how long they have been busy here, but they have only dug about 20 meters away.
"How far do you have to dig?" I asked.
Dahu said: "I feel that it is two feet wide, and I will be able to dig it through in two days." ”
Ah Cai shook his head and said, "This is too unprofessional. She knocked twice on the bottom of the cave with her hand, took out a shovel and dug twice at the bottom of the cave, and then kicked with her foot, and the bottom of the cave collapsed instantly, revealing the mouth of the cave that was half a man tall.
Dahu was dumbfounded and stared at Ah Cai: "It's too professional!"
"This is the gap, it's open, if you want something, go in and get it. ”
The big tiger was a little frightened, and watched us not speak for a long time.
"Why, don't you dare to go in?" I asked.
Dahu nodded, a little shy, and muttered for a long time: "This, my father said, I'm afraid there are unclean things here." ”
"What's wrong with what you're buried underneath your house?" and "Besides, whose graveyard is still clean for you?" I asked.
Not long after, the old man jumped down, gave us a small red envelope in a panic, and said, "This is given to us by his second uncle, saying that it can save our lives." ”
I looked into the cave at this time, and found that this was an ordinary burial chamber, and from here we could clearly see the coffin inside, but there were some ordinary large round jars placed around the coffin.
"Whose grave is this, and why is it still buried in the ground of your house?" I asked.
The old man said: "This is a famous rich man back then, who was afraid that his things would be taken away after his death, so he buried himself in the ground of his house. After many years, this matter became a mystery, and after my second child bought this house, he was blind, and he sought medical treatment everywhere, but no one could cure him. ”
"How did that house end up in your hands?" I asked.
The old man explained: "Didn't we have nowhere to live, so we came to him, and he took him in, and he gave us the house and traveled everywhere by himself. ”
I laughed, "So you said he would come back once in a while because this house was originally his place, right?"
"Yes!" the old man nodded.
But at this moment, there was a knock in the village, and several of us were silent, only breathing sounds.
The big tiger hid behind me with an oil lamp in his hand. Ah Cai stood beside me, and the old man was at the end.
I entered the burial chamber first, looked around a few times, nothing special, just these vats are a little dazzling, I leaned over to take a look, and suddenly exclaimed: "My mother, how much money does this have?"
But at this moment, I don't know where the wind came from, the oil lamp in the old man's hand suddenly went out, and there was a creaking sound in the tomb.
When I tried to take out the flint, I noticed a pair of eyes staring straight at me.
And I felt something on my face, and I reached out and touched it, and it was sticky. A chill felt in my waist, as if something sharp had touched my waist.
"Who asked you to come, don't you know that this is our family's stuff?"
