Tomb raiding: The awesome life that started from Ganggangyingzi
Chapter 70 Old Wu with a Dark Face
Upon hearing this, the female boss looked at Ji Haobo, hesitated for a moment, then sighed and advised:
"Sigh! A group of people did come a week ago, but they never came back after entering the mountains."
Little brother, listen to your sister's advice: go back to where you came from tomorrow!
"We can't go into the mountains. The treasure is valuable, but we need to be alive to get it out!"
The conversation between the two caused Wu Laosan's expression to change drastically. He looked at Ji Haobo with suspicion and uncertainty, then looked up at the female boss.
"Uh! How did you know we were in the mountains looking for treasure?"
"What treasure hunting? Grave robbing is fine too!"
The female boss seemed to have some kind of grudge against Wu Laosan, as she spoke very rudely.
"You outsiders come here just to rob tombs, right? That's no secret in the village."
Those who went into the mountains either came up empty-handed or never returned. If treasures were so easy to take, the authorities would have taken them away years ago.
Otherwise, do you think the people in our village are fools? Why wouldn't we take the good stuff ourselves and leave it for you outsiders?
The female boss gave Wu Laosan a disdainful look, then turned and went to the back to get busy.
"Hey hey hey..."
Seeing this, the others couldn't help but chuckle at Wu Laosan's bewildered expression.
Watching the female boss's retreating figure, Wu Laosan opened his mouth, feeling very depressed. After a while, he turned to look at Ji Haobo.
"Brother Bo, how did you know someone came here a few days ago? Who was that person?"
He was very puzzled. He had only been using the map for a few days and hadn't told anyone about it, so how could someone else have gotten there first?
What's even stranger is that Ji Haobo went to find him himself, didn't he? But now, this...?
Ji Haobo glanced at him, a strange smile playing on his lips, and said calmly:
"Don't worry, those people are your old flame Qiu Dehao's men, they're trapped inside now."
Upon hearing this, Wu Laosan's pupils contracted, and he was greatly shocked. He suddenly felt an inexplicable fear of Ji Haobo.
From what he had just heard, he realized that the person in front of him seemed to know quite a bit about his affairs.
But how could that be? His secret dealings with Qiu Dehao should be something that outsiders would almost never know about.
The others were completely confused, but judging from Wu Laosan's face, which was racing, they knew that it must involve some private information.
After dinner, Wu Laosan called everyone to his room and took out a map to study together.
When the female boss came in to serve tea, Wu Laosan's hasty action of putting away the map drew another wave of disdain from her.
"Tch, sneaking around like that. Your lousy thing isn't even as useful as a piece of toilet paper. Everyone in the village knows about that place."
A few years ago, some things were washed up by a heavy rain. Experts from the authorities came and dug out not only a bunch of skulls, but also blood in the soil.
I remember a lot of people died back then. In the end, the experts filled in the pits they had dug and then slunk away.
If you really want to go tomorrow, you can easily find your way by paying anyone to give you directions.
After the female boss left, everyone in the room burst into laughter at Wu Laosan's darkened face.
"Ha ha ha ha…"
"Old Wu, people say your piece of junk is useless, it's hilarious!"
"Third Uncle, have you been here before? Why does the owner seem to have a lot of complaints about you?"
"Hey! Did you do something, you old rascal? Making her sound like a wronged woman, hehehe..."
The crowd's mocking laughter made Wu Laosan's face turn pale and then red, and he awkwardly cursed:
"Get out! Get out! Now go to sleep! Go to sleep!"
After driving everyone out, Wu Laosan himself began to wonder if someone had caused the trouble and he had become the scapegoat.
The next morning, the group looked for someone to guide them in the village, and sure enough, when they heard that they could get two hundred yuan, several people volunteered to be their guides.
However, there is one condition: only take him to the nearby hilltops, and never go to that mountain.
The request was reasonable, and Wu Laosan agreed. So the man, beaming with joy, quickly led the way.
"I'm telling you, but if you bosses really want to go to that place, you should think it over."
A few days ago, Old Man Wang said that he took some foreigners to that mountain;
That night, all the foreigners were captured by the monster. If he hadn't gotten up to pee in the middle of the night, he might have been gone.
Upon hearing this, Wu Laosan's expression changed slightly, and he quickly asked:
"Old Wang? Does he often drive an oxcart outside?"
The villager nodded, then suddenly seemed to realize something and looked at everyone in surprise.
"Bosses, you didn't believe Old Man Wang's nonsense and came in through an abandoned cave on Old Man Li's boat, did you?"
"Oh? What do you say?"
"Hey! Those two old bastards are a menace, they often conspire to murder for money."
Old Wang specifically targets outsiders like you, and then Old Li leads them to the cave.
Every time they went in, everyone except Old Li would disappear. Plus, that old man was acting strangely, so the villagers didn't dare offend him, much less call the police.
"Oh! So those two scourges of your village will be gone soon."
Just then, Ji Haobo, who was leisurely puffing out smoke, suddenly pointed to a figure herding cattle on a mountain ridge ahead.
Everyone looked up and saw that it was indeed that old man. He was incredibly cunning; regardless of whether the boatman had succeeded or not, he hid in the mountains first.
"Old Hu, you and Panzi go and catch that old man, and take the cow with you while you're at it."
Upon hearing Ji Haobo's instructions, the two ran out without hesitation.
They were all soldiers who had been on the battlefield, so they knew exactly how to encircle and intercept them.
Seeing the somewhat frightened villagers, Wu Laosan took out five hundred yuan and handed it over.
"Take this money. We'll have that old man to lead the way. You can go back now, but don't say anything out of line, understand?"
"Understood! Okay, bosses. I'll be going now."
The villagers, both surprised and delighted, accepted the money and, as if granted a pardon, immediately turned and ran away.
The group squatted by the mountain path and waited. Wu Xie looked at the two of them, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.
"Uncle Bo, what are you planning to do with Old Man Wang? Kill him?"
"How could that be? I'm not a serial killer, I just asked him to lead the way."
Ji Haobo smiled, shrugged, and looked at Wu Xie, saying:
"Don't worry, we'll have beef for lunch."
"puff"
"Ha ha ha ha…"
His sudden change in tone made Fatty Wang and Old Man Wu burst into laughter.
In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Panzi returned carrying an old man with a bruised and swollen face, with Lao Hu leading the ox behind him.
More than half an hour later, the old man led the way with a mournful face and his eyes filled with fear.
"Sir...sirs, are you really going somewhere? We can't go there! There's a demon..."
"Snapped"
Wu Laosan slapped him across the face, interrupting him, and cursed with a dark expression:
"There are monsters, huh? I don't care what ghosts are out there. Either you go and keep Old Ghost Li company now, or you obediently lead the way."
