Guanzhong Tomb Robbery Notes

I pushed open the gate and saw Cui Hao pacing anxiously in the yard.

"Rat."

"Brother, you're back. Grandpa has already taken medicine and gone to bed, but he still looks listless."

"Well, how was the talk with Mr. Camel?"

Cui Hao stared at me without blinking, obviously looking forward to what would happen in the tomb.

I have to say, tomb robbing makes money really quickly.

And it is a no-cost business.

Once you do it, you'll be deeply addicted.

It is basically impossible to do anything else steadily.

"That's not good, and our interception might be exposed."

I told him what had just happened.

Cui Hao was stunned when he heard this.

Especially when he heard that Tuo Ye was possessed by a ghost, he was so frightened that his face turned pale and his upper and lower teeth started to chatter.

"Scared, scared me to death!"

"It sounds so scary. Could the "she" that Tuoye is talking about be the female ghost in the tomb?"

I shook my head.

I don't even know what she is.

From a scientific point of view, perhaps Tuoye was frightened when he went to the tomb, suffered psychological trauma, and had a stress response when recounting the past.

Or perhaps after suffering a shock of fear, the mind experiences symptoms of hallucinations and auditory hallucinations.

This is what is called schizophrenia.

But no matter what kind of mental illness Tuoye has, he must have experienced great and terrifying stimulation.

So what kind of terrifying existence is hidden in the tomb of the King of Bi State?

This is something I can’t and dare not imagine.

Anyway, I've decided not to participate.

After selling the gold and jade jewelry, he sent his grandfather to the provincial capital for hospitalization, and he also attended Northwest University as an auditor to learn knowledge.

If we could learn some archaeological knowledge, perhaps we could solve the problem of lack of tomb-robbing technology.

"Brother, let's not go to the tomb of the King of Bi State."

"There are thousands of graves in the world, but we only have one life."

"It's the same with finding other tomb robbers."

Cui Hao backed out even faster than I did.

Unfortunately, God seemed to have arranged everything long ago.

Although we didn't want to take any risks, we both ended up going down to the tomb of the King of Bi State and almost died in there.

"That's what I thought."

"Tomorrow I'll find Boss Dong to sell the things, and then send my grandfather to the hospital. We'll stay in the provincial capital for a few days to avoid the limelight."

"Also, don't wear a suit tomorrow morning. You can bring it with you to the provincial capital and change into it later."

The suit is too flashy.

If the Meng family saw that Cui Hao was also wearing a suit, it would be like admitting guilt.

We packed our things that night and set off early the next morning as planned.

When leaving the village, the villagers happened to be gathered in the threshing ground, listening to Meng Jianshe reading the newspaper.

Reading newspapers was considered a form of entertainment in those days.

As one of the few literate people in the village, Meng Jianshe often reads newspapers to show off his education, just like a peacock spreading its feathers when courting a mate.

Xiufang was also in the crowd, and was standing right in front of Meng Jianshe.

It seemed that he was reading the newspaper specifically for Xiufang.

"Xinhua News Agency reported an exciting piece of news!"

"Huang Xinwen from Zhongshan, Guangdong, earns over 10,000 yuan a year through hard work raising pigs, with a net income of up to 6,000 yuan!"

"Become the first 10,000 yuan household in the country!"

Meng Jianshe read passionately, his eyes constantly drifting towards Xiufang.

Xiufang and the others were shocked by the term "ten thousand yuan household".

"Ten thousand yuan household? Ten thousand yuan a year income?!"

"We work so hard digging the land and only earn a hundred or so yuan a year. When will we be able to become a millionaire?"

"What kind of life do people with ten thousand yuan live? I guess they have to eat meat every meal."

Everyone's envy of the ten thousand yuan households made Meng Jianshe hold his head high with pride.

He coughed hard twice, and when everyone was silent, he slowly said, "There will soon be a millionaire in our village, and that's me!"

"what?"

There were cries of surprise one after another.

Meng Jianshe glanced at me sideways with a provocative look in his eyes.

"The child of a certain criminal has been disqualified from attending university, which has seriously affected the reputation of our village."

"To restore the reputation of our village, I, Meng Jianshe, must be the first to become a millionaire!"

"The loan from the credit union will be approved today. I want to open a brick factory in our village!"

"In less than a year, I will be the first person in Xianyang, and even the entire province, to earn ten thousand yuan!"

clap clap clap!

The villagers applauded.

All kinds of compliments are offered as if they are free.

Xiufang's parents were the most enthusiastic.

"Before, my husband and I were blind and fell for that rotten coward, Shitouwa, and almost pushed Xiufang into the fire pit."

"Today I finally understand that you and Xiufang are a match made in heaven!"

Her parents seemed to think that the compliments were not enough, and pushed Xiufang in front of Meng Jianshe together.

Xiufang blushed and lowered her head, looking shy.

That expression was exactly the same as when she got engaged to me.

Meng Jianshe was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He hugged Xiufang and kissed her on the face.

Then he gave me a provocative look.

Gaba.

I clenched my fists so hard that my joints made crackling sounds.

"You coward, fuck Meng Jianshe!"

"Brother, he's stepping on you to elevate himself!"

"And that bitch Xiufang, what a shame! They're just a pair of bastards!"

Cui Hao cursed a few times but still not satisfied, so he picked up a stone from the roadside and prepared to throw it over.

"Brother, I'll throw it and we'll run."

"Don't make trouble, you think you are still a child."

I took the stone and threw it randomly by the side of the road.

"Whatever they want to do is none of my business."

Now is not the time for impulsiveness.

Finish the important things, there will be plenty of time to settle the accounts later.

"Brother, are you just going to watch Meng Jianshe act so arrogant? He's a worthless millionaire!"

"And the disgusting look on Xiufang and her parents' faces, I wish I could give their whole family a couple of smacks!"

I pulled Cui Hao, who was cursing non-stop, out of the village.

But I was thinking about what Meng Jianshe said in my heart.

Getting a loan to open a brick factory?

No matter how you look at it, the real purpose is not the wine.

Do you want to use the brick factory as a cover to dig up the tomb of the King of Bi State?

Forget it, it’s so weird just because Camel tells a story.

If you really go into the tomb, you might encounter some weird things.

Let them do risky things.

Your own safety comes first!

We walked to Xi'an People's Building with ease and knocked on Mr. Dong's door.

As soon as the door opened, Boss Dong smiled like Maitreya Buddha.

"I heard a magpie calling early this morning. It turns out it's Brother Chen who's here. Please come in."

When we entered the room, Cui Hao and I were both stunned.

There were other people in the room.

They were divided into three groups and sat on the sofas and chairs.

There were bags of varying sizes at the feet of each group of people.

There are also pottery jars and pottery warehouses on the table, which seems to be for Boss Dong to ship goods.

The ten looks from these three gangs and five people were all fixed on me.

Because Boss Dong was putting his arm around my shoulders and talking to me like brother.

This made their eyes full of envy and jealousy.

Although they are all tomb robbers, Boss Dong’s attitude towards them is completely different from his attitude towards me.

"Brother, I was wondering when you would come last night."

"I didn't expect to see you so early in the morning."

"Ah, these guys are also fellows, but their skills are too low, and they only brought some worthless broken pottery."

Boss Dong made a casual introduction and paid no attention to those people.

The five fellows lowered their heads in shame upon hearing this.

"Boss Dong, we are just unlucky."

"Who doesn't want to dig a big tomb? But there aren't that many big tombs to dig."

"Besides, we are all new in the industry and lack experience."

The five people defended themselves for the sake of self-respect.

The oldest one among them suddenly said to me, "Young man, judging from what Boss Dong said, you are a capable person."

"How about digging something out of you and showing it to everyone?"
