Burning down my ex-husband's house! I won't raise these bastard children anymore
Chapter 339 Aunt, when are we going to the tomb?
Chapter 339 Aunt, when are we going to the tomb?
Lao Jia introduced:
"This Liuqu Mountain beneath our feet hides a great secret. Years ago, there was an ancient tomb from the Han Dynasty here. Its specifications clearly showed that it belonged to a royal family.
I heard from the gang that a group of people went in there before, they were a bunch of unruly people."
"That group of people were simply crazy. After entering the tomb, all they saw were gold, silver and treasures.
No matter what, carry away everything that can be carried away, and just pry out the gems inlaid on the murals.
All the burial bronze artifacts, big and small, were moved out.
The scene was like the Japanese invaders entering the village to rob things.
What’s even more outrageous is that even the tomb owner’s coffin was not spared.
They opened the coffin, threw the body away, and stripped it of all its burial objects."
"Our tomb raiders are different. The rules passed down by our ancestors are that we don't steal gold after the cockcrows and the lights go out. Every time we take something, we must stop when we have enough. Even a thief has his own code of conduct.
But that group of people didn't care about that. As long as it was valuable, they would take it all out no matter where it was in the tomb.
I heard that they sold the things they got out of the Han Dynasty tomb for a lot of money and then ran away.
All that was left was the looted and devastated ancient tomb. Every time I think of it, I feel heartbroken.
In this line of work, even if it's for the sake of wealth, there must be a bottom line. How could we do such a wicked thing that desecrates a corpse and cuts off the financial resources of future generations? "
Lin Panpan nodded. They wandered around Liuqu Mountain for a long time. The only sounds around them were the wind and the rustling sounds of people stepping on fallen leaves and dead branches.
Just then, a faint voice was heard from the front.
Everyone became alert instantly and followed the sound with light steps.
After pushing aside a bunch of dense bushes, I heard more than thirty tomb robbers sitting around a campfire and eating barbecue.
"There must be a lot of good things in this tomb this time." A tomb robber licked his cracked lips.
"Yeah, I just don't know if we'll encounter any rice dumplings." Another person muttered with some worry.
"What's the use of zongzi? How can there be such a weird thing?" Someone sneered nonchalantly.
A fat man took a big gulp of wine, burped loudly, and shouted:
"Don't be so skeptical! I'm telling you, with my small body, it's not easy to survive in this industry.
Last time, I went to Yunnan with Brother Qiangzi to rob tombs and entered a huge tomb. It was terrifying!
The fat man wiped the wine stains from the corners of his mouth and said:
"That tomb was filled with poisonous insects. They were about the size of a fist, with metal shells. They made rustling sounds when they ran, and were faster than mice.
As soon as we went in, we didn't know what mechanism was triggered, but the poisonous insects went crazy.
"Those desperately trying to squeeze out through the cracks in the walls and the floor—that scene is unbearable for someone with trypophobia!"
The fat man was talking so fast that the fat on his face was shaking:
"Brother Qiangzi saw something was wrong and shouted, 'Run!' We ran, but those poisonous insects seemed to have eyes and kept chasing us.
One of the brothers ran a step slower and was immediately submerged by the poisonous insect. He screamed in pain, but soon he was silent.
When we finally got rid of those poisonous insects, we looked back and saw that brother was just a pile of bones, with not even his clothes left!
Having said that, the fat man took another big gulp of wine with lingering fear.
"Tsk, Fatty, you just love to brag." A tall, thin man curled his lips and poked the fire with a branch, sending sparks flying. "It's not as outrageous as you say."
"That's right." Another person echoed:
"Eat quickly, and then we'll get back to work.
This time, Boss Ye’s meaning was very clear. As long as the things in the tomb were taken out and given to him, he would buy the artifacts in the tomb for 20 yuan.
If we can snag some good stuff, we won’t have to worry about the rest of our lives.”
A tomb robber with a scar on his face sneered and said:
"Boss Ye is not a good guy either, he is always very stingy.
We need to be more careful and on guard. He's known for his shrewdness in the underworld, so don't let him trick us."
"It doesn't matter what, as long as they are willing to pay." A young man waved his hand nonchalantly:
“Let’s keep a bottom line, so if we find something good, we can just grab it.
Who told us this odds? "
"I don't know how Boss Ye knows these odds. He's really amazing." Someone scratched his head with a puzzled look on his face.
An experienced tomb robber said:
"Isn't that simple? Money talks. He paid for all these odds.
A betting site like this would probably cost tens of thousands.
He's well-informed and has many connections. Let's follow him. Even if the pay is less, at least there's work to do, which is better than having no place to start."
Lin Panpan hunched over and lowered her voice, saying, "Boss Ye is really amazing. He's quite successful in this industry!"
Lao Jia leaned slightly to the side and replied in an almost inaudible voice:
"He is indeed quite capable. Over the years, he has been secretly making a fortune from ancient tombs.
He employed a group of sorcerers who were proficient in Feng Shui, geomancy, and Qi Men Dun Jia, and they specialized in searching for him for feng shui treasure sites containing ancient tombs.
Lin Panpan pressed on: "Just finding a place isn't enough. Who's going to dig it?"
Lao Jia explained:
"He also hired a group of tomb raiders, also known as dragon seekers in the tomb-robbing world.
These people are unconventional and have extensive connections. They specifically contact tomb robbers like us and encourage us to go into the tomb and steal treasures."
"Then he's not afraid that these people will take the money and run away with all the treasures?"
Lao Jia shook his head slightly and explained patiently:
"The tomb-robbing world has its own rules. If anyone signs an agreement and still dares to embezzle all the artifacts and run away, then he has committed a serious crime.
From then on, he couldn't sell the goods he had, and no one in the underworld would deal with him anymore.
Moreover, spending 200,000 to buy this item is actually quite cost-effective. Everyone knows that even if more than 20 treasures are taken out of the tomb, they will not hand them all over, and they will definitely hide a few.
For example, he could produce more than 20 items, but he might only hand in a dozen. This is something everyone knows.”
Lin Panpan nodded and saw the tomb robbers moving.
Lin Feng rubbed his hands together and said, "Auntie, when are we going to the tomb? I've never robbed a tomb before!"
Lin Panpan glared at him and said, "If you want to go down, you can go down now. We are not going down."
Old Jia came over, his expression solemn, and said in a low voice: "The inside of this tomb is not as simple as you think."
His voice was low, with a hint of warning:
"Tombs are often filled with all kinds of traps. The bigger the tomb, the higher the risk.
I encountered it once. The tomb was so huge that the moment I entered, the coldness penetrated my bones."
Lao Jia paused, his Adam's apple rolling up and down:
"We were trapped inside for more than 20 days.
At the beginning, a mechanism was triggered, and countless hidden arrows shot out from the wall, and several people who were traveling with me were killed on the spot..."
