Chapter 162: Tomb Robbers
The van bumped and slowed down the mountain road until the sun went down.
Everyone felt that their bodies and bones were torn apart, but they were unwilling to go home.
Suddenly, Xu Xiangyang stopped, jumped down and squatted on the ground to watch.
Yue Xinxin walked over and saw two not very clear rut marks on the muddy road, and Xu Xiangyang was looking at this.
"What's wrong?"
"It rained last night, and this just came out today."
Qian Yukun poked his head out of the car window and said, "You want to say that we went back?" ”
Xu Xiangyang looked at him like a fool: "This is not our tire printed." ”
Qian Yukun looked down at the twill tires of the van, then looked at the zigzag prints on the ground, and retracted his head.
"Maybe there's another car going into the mountains! Why do you care about this? ”
Yue Xinxin felt that Xu Xiangyang still maintained a professional acumen, and he attached so much importance to this seal, there must be something unusual.
"It's the off-road vehicle, the one you encountered in the restaurant."
Yue Xinxin was surprised, Xu Xiangyang circled around the car at that time, and even remembered the pattern of the car's tires?
Little Black, White Cat Ling'er, and Antler Girl were also attracted to come over and speculated.
"What are they doing in the mountains? There's nothing to do here. ”
"Maybe it's a development company, let's take a look."
"Or maybe it's the wrong way."
Xu Xiangyang stood up, patted the dust on his hands, and smiled mysteriously.
"I guessed wrong. I peeked in yesterday as they closed the car door and knew what I saw? ”
"What? Don't sell it! ”
"Luoyang shovel."
Everyone didn't know why, Qian Yukun understood the purpose of the Luoyang shovel because he had been in the society for a long time, and said in surprise: "They are tomb robbers?" That shovel can only be used for this. ”
Xu Xiangyang nodded, pondered for a while, and said, "Why don't we follow them?" ”
Yue Xinxin felt that this was a good idea, the tomb robbers must have brought not only the Luoyang shovel, but also various detection equipment, if there was a hole in the mountain and it was blocked, maybe they could find out.
The van followed the rutted prints, and sometimes the prints disappeared or were interrupted by the grass, but Xu Xiangyang, with years of reconnaissance experience and perseverance, finally found the seals back.
Two hours later, Chen Mo's sensitive ears heard the sound of a car engine, so he drove the van into the woods and hid, and the group got out of the car quietly.
Turning a mountain beam, several flashlight beams appeared in the sky in front of him, and faintly human voices came.
"Hurry up, are you alright?"
"Why don't you just talk about it!"
"What are you yelling about, you want to call people over, right?"
"There's a fart guy! There are no rice dumplings here! I don't know what I'm doing here! ”
"You'll know what you're doing when you're rich!"
A group of people wearing headlamps and holding Luoyang shovels, shovels and other things in their hands were working in full swing, when they suddenly heard a sound of grass behind them, as if something was stepping quickly.
They looked back, and there was nothing but the mottled shadows of grass and trees in the hazy moonlight.
Continuing to dig with his head down, suddenly there was another sound of grass on the side, faster and closer than the previous one.
One of the men, bald from the Mediterranean, cursed in a low voice, walked out to the grass with a shovel in hand.
He has seen a lot of roe deer and hares in the mountains, even wild boars and snakes have nothing to fear, and those who can do this are not cowards.
Shovel to pick up the grass, the headlamp illuminates the green grass to white gray, startling a large number of dense mantises, scattering in all directions.
Suddenly, a pair of feet dangled in the air in front of the Mediterranean man, covered with blood-colored embroidered shoes.
The Mediterranean man gasped, took two steps back, and with the skills he had cultivated over the years, he suppressed the urge to scream and moved the headlight beam upward.
On the top of the feet is a set of red gowns, very similar to wedding clothes, and above them are long black hair, the face is covered by long hair, and when the night breeze blows, the hair is lifted, revealing a pair of scarlet eyes, and blood dripping down!
The Mediterranean man finally couldn't help but scream, it was the first time he had encountered such a thing, and before he went underground, he saw zongzi!
He ran like crazy to the other four, screaming incoherently as he ran.
The others focused their flashlight beams into the grass and saw nothing, but heard the sound of someone talking.
"It's so uncreative! How old-fashioned the ghost bride is! ”
"It's okay if you're old-fashioned, just be afraid!"
"Hee-hee, your black tail was still showing out just now!"
The four of them roared in unison at the grass: "Who? Come out! ”
The grass parted, and a black cat came out, staring at a pair of beautiful beige pupils, and lowered its head and licked its forepaws.
There was a sound of footsteps behind them, and the four of them hurriedly turned around and saw Xu Xiangyang, Qian Yukun, Yue Xinxin, White Cat Ling'er, Antler Girl and Chen Mo walking out from behind the grass.
"Who are you? What are you going to do? "The leader of the four was a square face with a tattoo on his right arm.
Xu Xiangyang sneered: "I should ask you this." ”
The flower-armed man looked at them, male and female, old and young, not like a policeman, nor like a villager, could it be a peer?
The Mediterranean man trembled and clung to the four of them, and now that there were more people, he felt better. Strange, was it just a hallucination?
Xu Xiangyang looked at their equipment, and sure enough, there were explosives, a small piece the size of a compressed biscuit, but it was enough to blow up the rammed earth on the upper layer of the tomb, or the rockfall formed by the collapse of the cave.
"How about we talk about cooperation?" Xu Xiangyang pointed to the explosives.
The flower-armed man sneered: "Why! ”
A thunderous roar suddenly came from behind him: "Meow! ”
As soon as they turned around, they were horrified to see that the little black cat suddenly swelled in size, standing up more than two people tall, a pair of pupils turned scarlet, and four triangular fangs appeared in its mouth!
The five let out a terrible scream and crawled apart.
The black monster retracted and sat quietly on the ground, licking with one forepaw.
The five of them crawled together tremblingly.
"Boss, is this the hell?"
"It is said that black cats are psychic, are we damned?"
The flower-armed man took a few breaths, looked at the black cat, then at Xu Xiangyang, swallowed a mouthful of water, and said, "What do you want?" ”
Xu Xiangyang asked with a smile, "Answer my question first." What are you looking for? ”
"I heard that there are mines on this border, and we came here for this."
"Not for tomb robbing?"
"Once upon a time. Not this time. ”
"Did you find it?"
"Not yet."
"What were you digging up here just now?"
"The mountain seems to be empty, and we suspect the mine is inside."
"So you want to blow it up?"
"Hmm."
"Go on."
The five of them looked at each other, so they had to dig a pit and bury explosives.
This directional blasting technique is nothing to tomb robbers, and it can be said that they are familiar with it.
While they were working, Yue Xinxin walked to the top of the mountain beam and observed the surrounding terrain by the moonlight.
Chen Mo came to her side. "Do you think it's like this?"
Yue Xinxin shook her head. "Not really. But there may really be a cave in this mountain, and the underground cave group is likely to be connected, so I think it should be right to go in and have a look. ”
