Chapter 005: A Deserted Tomb

How can there be so much gold here?

After careful observation, I found that the location of the wooden box was located, and in the half-human-high reeds, there seemed to be traces of someone tossing, and the reed poles in several places had been overwhelmed by something.

The traces don't look new, they may be two or three days old. It's a wilderness and inaccessible, so the traces are well preserved.

"Could it be that someone is hiding this box of gold bars here?"

"It's not that it's impossible, no one would leave this box of gold bars here and ignore it, but whose will it be?"

Not far away, in another reed, Green Pepper made a new discovery, and he called out to the others, "Hey, come and see, there's a grave here." ”

The wild grave found by Qingjiao was buried in a shallow pile of dead leaves, and the slightly raised grave bag was already covered with a large pile of weeds and reeds, I don't know how much it was. The corner of the tombstone at the head of the grave was exposed at the feet of the people.

"There's still a grave here, but it looks like no one has taken care of it for a long time, it's a deserted grave, right?"

"Just look at it. As he spoke, he cleaned up the debris next to the tombstone, and only after he cleared it did everyone see the whole picture of the tombstone.

"Yo, I really couldn't see it just now, it turns out that this tomb is so big and so arrogant. ”

The tombstone is carved from blue-walled marble, the inscription is covered with dust, and there are still offerings and unburned candles from the last worship in front of the tomb, but they have been covered with dust and have lost their original color.

Is there any connection between the gold bars, which are not a few steps away from the tomb, and are they the burial goods of the tomb owner, or are they not related?

One after another, these questions came to mind, but the thought that they had come out to catch fish put them aside for the time being.

"Let's put this box back in its place. ”

Hearing that the senior brother was going to give up these flying windfalls, the three immortals were a little unhappy, "Senior brother, this is a lot of money, so I don't want it?"

Once pouted, nodded, then closed the box, and hummed to ask the three immortals to help carry the box back to its original place.

In fact, I also wanted to carry this box of gold bars home, but I thought that the master had taught me on weekdays that these sudden windfalls would bring trouble, so I endured it and gritted my teeth and gave up. Anyway, the family has a lot of money and little money, and the master is the one who checks it, and he has earned a lot of money before

The three immortals did not give up, and persuaded the senior brother that this wealth was much easier to obtain than going out all day long and pretending to be a ghost to deceive people.

Ever since I saw this tomb, I have always had an indescribable feeling in my heart, and I can't tell whether it is good or bad.

The tomb is very large, judging from the exquisiteness of the tombstone carving, it is also a spiritual land after death that only a large family such as a wealthy gentry and local tyrant deserves to have, and, I don't know if it feels wrong, once I felt that around the tomb, there was a strange and chilling feeling, as if there were dozens of pairs of invisible eyes, staring at him intently.

It was getting dark, and the ground ten feet away was a little unclear, and only the faint sound of running water could be heard standing here. They were not allowed to think about it too much, the task taught to them by the master had not yet been completed, and the source of this box was unknown, so after returning the box to its original place, the four of them left in a hurry.

And they made a fire, sat down by the river, and began to catch fish.

Fishing is a matter of great patience, and it is not uncommon not to see a fish bite for half a day. Before I knew it, an hour had passed, and all the fish in the river seemed to be asleep, and none of them had bitten the bait.

"I said, brother, will there be no fish in this river at all?"

Potato shook his arm, and saw that he had not spoken for a long time, and when he looked closely, he found that he had already fallen asleep.

"Hehe, Boss Huang, I'll toast you another glass and dry it......"

"Senior brother, senior brother......"

Once he slept soundly, he was still reminiscing about the banquet in Huangfu in his dreams, and the noise around him did not disturb his sweet dreams in the slightest.

Eggplant was still thinking about the box of gold bars he had just discovered, and he always wanted to take the gold bars away, and he asked the other two immortals: "Let me ask you, if no one picks up the money that has fallen on the ground, then whose money is it?"

The idea of the potato was very simple, he said that since it fell to the ground, it was supposed to belong to the "earth", and apparently, the other two ignored him.

"In my opinion, whoever sees it first is whoever's. ”

"Qingjiao is right, this box of things was discovered by us together, that is to say, it belongs to us, senior brother, he doesn't want it, it doesn't mean we don't want it, and it doesn't mean that the master doesn't want it. Let's carry the box back to Master, and when we have such money, we can live a good life even if we don't eat or do it in the future, so why do we have to pretend to be a ghost and cheat other people's money?"

When Eggplant said this, Green Pepper felt reasonable and agreed with Eggplant's point of view, Potato was originally an unassertive person, and when he saw that everyone else said so, he also stood with them.

So they picked up a torch from the fire and went to the reeds.

The night sky is full of stars, the river is murmuring, the starlight and fire reflect each other on the river surface, and the small fish at the bottom of the river spit bubbles out of the water from time to time, and the ripples in the circles pull out the starlight on the river surface.

In the wild night, you can hear many wonderful sounds, when the evening breeze comes, the sound of frogs startles, the wind stops, and the insects chirp.

Suddenly, the fishing rod shook, and there was a splash on the surface of the river, and he was awakened by this sound, and he was quick to pick up the fishing rod to the shore, but the strength of the river was very great, and he almost dragged him into the water.

"Hurry!

After a few sounds, no one came to help, and only then did he find that the three immortals were not beside him, and he was the only one here.

No matter, let's catch this guy first.

After a stalemate, the river still lost to the shore, and it was not until the guy was dragged ashore that he saw that it was an old turtle that bit the hook. The old turtle is not big, but the water plants at the bottom of the river are hooked with their hands and feet to show that they are particularly strong.

"Hey, you guy, if you bite or not, you bite my hook, make me happy in vain, but count yourself lucky, I'll let you go today. ”

Once the hook from the old turtle's beak was removed, it was put into the river again, and after letting it swim away, he put on a new bait and inserted the rod into the soil.

When he turned around, he called the names of the three immortals of the earth, and after calling them for a while, no one answered.

"Where did the hell go......?"

The thoughts of the three immortals of the earth were naturally understood, and the senior brothers had been doing it for so many years, and they knew it with their butts, they must have run back to find the box of gold again.
