Tomb Hunt

The Grave Hunt

Chapter 1: Going North to Kansai

My father's name is Qi Zhenhua, listen to him say, our Qi family generations are from the origin of the geomancers, the so-called geomancers talk about the feng shui cemetery survey for people, interpretation of the world's mountains, rivers and pulses of the feng shui magician. When it came to my grandfather Qi Gongda's generation, his skill in geomancy was even better than blue. However, at that time, in the chaotic times of the Republic of China, many people could not get enough to eat and drink, and the poor people were in the oppressive situation of life, a few people thought of doing some chicken-and-dog business to spend their time, among which digging the graves of the dead and stealing their treasures was a very rampant business at that time, and they were often called grave robbers. The world is under the heat, Qi Gongda will be with their own ancestral skills to do a special digging graves of the dead to find treasure doorway.

Since he became a tomb raider, Qi Gongda's original poor family situation changed, and soon afterwards, the Qi family became a famous local family. It can be said that Qi Gongda started his career as a tomb raider and treasure hunter, and once he had the status, he naturally put aside those unseemly businesses and honestly married a local girl, half farmer, half businessman, running the Qi family business, and sometimes helping some poor people. Soon after, he gave birth to my father, and Qi Gongda was a man of blood. He gave his son the name Zhenhua, which meant revitalizing China.

Unfortunately, my father was not able to do anything of national importance after all, and did not have that opportunity to let him lead the army to fight. Finally had to honestly in the Qi family when his Qi family young, of course, the ancestral skills, grandfather Qi Gongda but a little bit of all taught to him, did not expect him not to learn it, a study is like a madman, all about a secondary school are let him to all the research. Speaking of which, his skill in geomancy was then a level higher than Qi Gongda.

When Qi Zhenhua came to the age of marriage, Qi Gongda began to calculate his son's lifelong events, and hard to entrust that coal woman said a ten miles and eight villages are known for the girl to Qi Zhenhua as a daughter-in-law. The good times did not last long, soon after the liberation of the country, Qi Gongda somehow contracted a bad disease, life is dying, know that his life is not long, so they called Qi Zhenhua alone to the bed, said I know that I do not have much time, this time called you to come, perhaps the last words. After saying that, from the bosom feel out a thing to, instructed: you still do not have a son, remember for our Qi family to leave the incense to continue after the future birth of grandchildren, this has a I carry a talisman, you will pass to the grandson tied, as a token of remembrance.

Qi Zhenhua busy to accept the relics handed over by his late father, held in the palm of his hand, a look, but an animal claw made of a seal talisman, the claw root set with a gold ring, wearing a silver chain, the whole body is engraved with the flying tiger pattern to avoid evil, also engraved with touch gold two seal characters, the strokes are strong and simple, ancient meaning still exists, although the age, but half of the signs of wear and tear. Although he knew that his father made his fortune by robbing tombs, but he did not know the rules of tomb robbers, and what he was holding was a seal talisman that marked the identity of the tomb robber. Seeing this, Qi Zhenhua could not help but cry out a good exquisite seal talisman, and then put away, and then look at his father, but saw that his father's eyes were closed, his breath was completely gone, and his soul had returned to the sky. Sadness, the next day will hold their own ability of public opinion, personally surveyed a feng shui treasure, the old father will be buried properly, in order to honor the filial piety.

The next year, I don't know whether it was the ancestors of the Qi family who showed their spirit or not, but I was born at that time, and I was named Yaozu, which means to shine brightly. During the Cultural Revolution, because our family was a landlord, we were taken to the streets for criticism every three days, and the women in our family died because they could not bear the mental torture.

This situation was maintained until the tide of the Cultural Revolution subsided, except that we were the only two left in the Qi family at that time. Forced to make ends meet, my father had to rely on his ancestral skills to read feng shui, fortune telling, to earn a few dollars to support the family, and in his spare time to teach me some feng shui geomancy, but also gave me another name, the name Qi Bai. Said I do not expect me I can glorify the ancestors, only to ask me to be able to clean and honest. However, I was young and exuberant, for the truth of the world and do not care, all day will only be with some of the countryside is not the climate of the boys mixed in a place.

At that time, the south had a culture of martial arts, and there were people all over the world who set up martial arts schools to teach students to learn the art. The old man in my family saw that I was idle all day, fearing that it was bad, so they asked me to teach a martial arts style with a countryside, but also to strengthen the body, in fact, the most important thing is to take the opportunity to let me cultivate my body. The martial arts teacher named Chu Fei, once visited the north and south of the world to learn the art, for each of the strengths are a little insight, plus he is as crazy about martial arts, actually combined his life's learning with Western boxing to create a unique combat body art. Later, the war against Japan broke out, and as a bloodthirsty Chinese, he did not hesitate to participate in the war against Japan. He said that once, when he was on a mission to fight the enemy, as the team had reached the point of running out of guns and bullets, he killed more than a dozen Japanese devils with his self-invented combat body art with his bare hands, a move that became a legend in his unit.

In this way, I am more interested, and learn more things is not a bad thing, then I will follow Chu Fei daily up and down the mountain training, day by day, he created his own combat physical skills also gave me learned seventy to eighty percent, although not into the sea to capture the dragon, but also not allowed to evil bully body.

Time flies, in a flash it was the 1980s, Comrade Deng Xiaoping led the party and the people to revitalize the national economy, China officially entered a period of stable development, many people have chosen to go north to find a living. At that time, by relying on his father's superb geomancy skills, he was one of the few well-known feng shui masters in the country, basically living a worry-free life. But the old man had other plans, and it so happened that he was asked to go north to consult, and there was a boom in the township to go north, so he asked me to go out into the world with the brigade, and to go north to consult for people on his behalf, and said that although you have not learned much of your own strengths, you are more than enough, so just go and take charge of things on my behalf.

The next day, the old man will explain everything clearly after sending me on the northbound team.

A large group of people from the south all the way to the capital of Beijing, passing through a place in Hunan, because I have to go out on behalf of my father, the patrons of the family who asked my father to consult the public opinion happens to live there, so I will go separate ways with my fellow countrymen to the north, to go to the family who needs to consult the public opinion to do business.

According to the address given by my father, I quickly found the patron's family's home, which is a very rich family, can be seen from the luxurious house they live in. The owner is an old man in his fifties, wearing gold and silver, the price is not ordinary. I went in and explained to him the purpose of his visit, the other side of the hospitality, said it was a long way to travel, may as well rest for a moment, and then mention business.

Said then immediately hosted a banquet, I am naturally respectful. After a full meal, it is time to talk about business, during the meal, I have learned that they are surnamed Li family, the master's name is Changqing, the invitation to my father is to let it look at a feng shui treasure, so that his old father, who had few days to bury.

Although I only know a little about feng shui geomancy, to look at the grave to find the crypt, it is not difficult for me. Immediately asked Li Changqing personally take me up the mountain to survey some.

Li Changqing is old, it took us more than an hour to climb one of the highest mountain peaks. I took out the survey compass, against the pointer on the compass down to look down at the mountain below the various hills and high slopes.

The feng shui of the yin house (yin house is the burial ground of the deceased) is like people receive the body and parents, the bones get gas, the remains are shaded, that is to say, the form of children and grandchildren is part of the ancestor's legacy, if the ancestor's bones get gas, it will make the future generations will be blessed, so since ancient times people believe that finding a lucky house for the ancestor's bones is a very important thing.

Suddenly, I looked down at a highland below, secretly praised a, did not want to have such a piece of feng shui treasure, busy pointing to that highland point, to Li Changqing said you see a piece of highland not far from here, the potential to shape stop, mountain and water intersection, crouching and waiting, and to sweep and have, the mountain, declare also, its gas just, the river, flow also, its gas soft. If the first bones buried in this important point, will certainly be rich as a million, expensive as a thousand multiplier.

Li Changqing heard such a compliment, eyebrows a happy, said Mr. Qi really live up to his father's reputation, according to you, the old father buried there can be appropriate?

I did not immediately reply, because I still have a matter of confusion, according to reason, this excellent feng shui point will certainly be a blessing to future generations, but why the point around the gas appears to be peaceful, could it be that someone has been first, the gas of heaven and earth has been absorbed by the ancestors, if so, why do not see a stone inscription? Thinking about it, and looked at another mound on a good point, although not than the former came to swallow the world, but also considered the front of the flow of wealth, the back of the mountain. So then pointed to the point and said: just that Yin point, although the shape of the gas with good, but if the burial of the angry fate of the person does not fit, the lucky house will also become a bad house.

Li Changqing hurriedly said, Then where is the mansion that combines with my father's destiny?

I pointed to the grave after the phase to him, and told him to write down the exact location, said this piece of Yin house in the future can also do everything to ensure that the future generations of your Li family by the blessings of the ancestors.

Li Changqing thanked, wrote down the location, and the two of them were ready to go back down the mountain to the Li family to rest. Because the time is still early, and I want to walk around in the local area, so see the local customs and people, on the Li Changqing explained the original reason, let him go back to the Li family first, he is in the local wandering.

Chapter 2: Touching the Golden Talisman

I'm the same person there, the bench is not hot, just like to walk around and stroll. Even if the old man did not ask this time, I will follow the tide of people going north to see the world. Of course, before also with the old man traveled north and south a few times, but, this time is the first time out to break out.

When I was at home, I was always told by the old man that I was not aggressive and could not achieve anything, and I don't know how many times I nagged him, but I almost did not kill him. Now it is good, since out, no matter what they have to make a name for themselves, so that the old man at home should also know that I am not a frugal lamp.

Pull out a cigarette from his trouser pocket, light up the fire, and immediately sat in front of a house puffing up the clouds.

I was enjoying myself, far away came a thin and fat passers-by thin one looks smart and capable, the fat one is solid, eyes intimidating, not the slightest loss of vigor, perhaps the long way to go more, people also look tired, look at me do aside smoking, two people also greeted sat down, the thin one will pull out the cigarette case, one handed to the fat one, one to his own mouth gripped, a touch on the body, a frown, may be the tool to light the body, and looked at my side, a smile on the mouth, revealing two rows of teeth, especially one big gold teeth, let people look particularly impressive. A frown, may be the tools to light the fire did not bring on the body, and looked at my side, a smile on the mouth, revealing two rows of teeth, especially one of the big gold teeth, making people look extra profound, then said to me: This master, block your interest, light the tools to borrow.

I'm usually a person who is also brisk, and it's just a small thing to do, then I feel the lighter on the flame, get up to the two of them, one by one for them to light the flame on the mouth. They both saw me so polite, they exchanged names with me to facilitate communication.

It turns out that the two of them came from Beijing to this place, both of them are doing the business of selling antiques in Han, the thin man as his name, called the big gold teeth, the fat one called Wang Kaixuan, know friends are called him fat. They are heard that Hunan area ancient tomb is very much, and the prevalence of grave robbers, will think of this opportunity to recover a few valuable black market antiques to enrich the sale. Originally, the matter is a fat person to draw up a trip plan, but he is empty of head on this line, the pressure with even the identification of ancient understand the skills are not, and fear that they received a person south of fake goods, so they pulled on the veteran big gold teeth to go with.

Speaking of this, Da Jinya asked me, Master Qi, listening to your accent, I dare say you are not a local?

I laughed and said I was also from out of town and was here to do some business this time.

The fat man took a puff of smoke, a long puff of mist, said just now I was hoping that you are a local, that's good, then you can point us to the antique collection of people here, or let us both go to talk, to collect one or two pieces, it is not in vain this trip south.

Hearing Fatty say so, and can look at the big gold teeth, and then touch the item with the grandfather down to my so-called amulet. In fact, this amulet I usually wonder, look at the vertical can not see this thing is that kind of thing, at this time just happened to meet the big gold teeth and fatty and their two antique connoisseurs, why not take out to let them help to see, may be able to see what, they also know the ancestral handed down in the end is a thing. Thinking of this, I will greet the big gold teeth in advance, said Master Jin, I happen to have an ancestral thing here, if it is convenient, you give me to see when that is something, so that I have a bottom in my own heart.

The fat man heard, said: It's not a valuable treasure! By the way, the old gold that appreciation of the Ming weapons is not a random cover, there are any treasure just show him clearly.

Big Gold Tooth said: Aiya! Master Fatty, I don't dare to accept your words, but since you, Master Qi, think highly of me, I'll just take a look.

I took off the seal talisman from my neck and handed it to the big gold tooth, the big gold tooth took it and looked at me and said, Yo! Master Qi, could it be that you are also a good player in touching gold hair mound?

The fat man was also surprised: Isn't that the 'gold touching talisman'?

When I saw that they each had something to say, I didn't know what they meant, so I asked what they meant by that.

Seeing that I was dumbfounded and did not seem to be able to pretend, Da Jinya brought the seal talisman over to me and said, Master Qi, I dare say you don't know what this is?

I said, That's not clear, this piece is my grandfather's life has been carried on his body, said it can avoid evil, so they asked my father passed to me, why? Is there something wrong with it?

Da Jinya said there is nothing wrong with this, but there is a lot of articles in it! Dare to ask Master Qi, can your ancestors have done tomb hunting and treasure hunting business?

Da Jinya asked this. This reminds me of something my father once told me about my grandfather Qi Gongda, could this seal talisman have something to do with my grandfather's origin?

It is true that grandfather Qi Gongda started his career as a tomb robber in his youth, but this can be related to a seal talisman to avoid evil? The big gold teeth see I did not say, afraid that I do not understand his meaning, and said the so-called tomb treasure hunting, that is, tomb raiding, the jargon is the meaning of dumping.

Fatty asked, I say, Lao Jin, could it be that the Qi brothers' ancestors were also gold detectives?

At that, I was stunned, the so-called gold detective in the mouth of the fat man is very strange, asked what is the gold detective?

The big gold teeth looked at me, knowing that I really do not know which, so they slowly give me the reason.

The so-called gold lieutenant, the earliest interpretation is an ancient officer's title, was set up for the Three Kingdoms period of Cao Cao, whose job is to excavate graves to steal property, later more refers to tomb raiders. The gold lieutenants work, the best is to find the tomb, they often collect all kinds of information over, combined with their own feng shui secret art of inspection, always the fastest speed to accurately determine the specific location of the underground tombs. And they open the coffin to touch the gold and belong to their own rules, where the excavation of the tomb, in the tomb of the underground to take out the original prepared candle, after lighting it will be placed in the southeast corner of the tomb, and only then you can touch the gold. Which need to pay attention to three other points. One can not damage the remains of the deceased, the second touch gold must leave one or two kinds of treasures to the deceased, the third if the southeast corner of the candle went out for no reason, they are concerned about leaving a way out, do not do nothing, then you must put back the possessions in hand, and then respectfully kowtow three heads, according to the original road back.

The gold-detecting family is not to have a master to teach the art will be considered a disciple, as long as you know the whole set of specialized signs, cuts, techniques, the line terminology, are the same disciple. However, in the heritage of the gold-detecting family, only people who have obtained an orthodox gold-detecting talisman can be called gold-detecting lieutenants.

After listening to the big gold teeth of a round, I suddenly realized that there are so many original reasons to find what my grandfather passed down.

When my grandfather Qi Gongda can also rely on tomb raiding to find the cave to make a fortune, according to the meaning of the big gold teeth guess, the gold talisman is my grandfather's life with the object, could he have been a gold detective? By the way, the skills of the gold detective is not also associated with Feng Shui pulse? The Qi family's ancestral skills are also geomancy and feng shui, then it is not difficult to think that grandfather was relying on this to become a gold detective.

The big gold teeth to touch the gold talisman carefully look at some, then said: "Qi master,, you carry this piece of stuff is touching the gold lieutenant used to mark the identity of the gold talisman, from all signs seem. The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you're doing.

At that moment, I told my grandfather when he was young by digging graves and treasure hunting. I did not want the fat man to listen to is a happy, said that is not ordinary, so, Qi brothers you are also doing this line of work.

In the end, he is talking about that kind of words, if I specialize in touching gold, and will not know the doorway.

Big Gold Tooth said, Master Fatty, from my point of view, Master Qi does not look like a veteran with experience in touching gold.

Fatty rubbed the back of his head hook and laughed: As soon as I heard that I had met a fellow brother, I couldn't help but think of the time I spent hanging out with Old Hu.

Hearing the word peer in the mouth of the fat man, I could not help but be a little confused.

The big gold teeth naturally understand my meaning, said not to conceal Master Qi, we two also did the gold detective, although now specializing in selling antiques, but also traveled north and south, especially we know a master called Hu Bayi, he is a good player in this, how many dragon buildings and treasure halls, the palace tomb did not break through ah! Especially with his body unique feng shui secret art, by reading the pulse of the mountains and rivers to find those hidden in the underground tomb that is to say how simple there are more simple, you can not believe.

Chapter 3 - Theft Cave

To rely on feng shui skills to find the ancient legacy of the tomb, which I believe, I heard my father say, the ancients pay attention to the unity of heaven and man, many hidden in various parts of the tomb pattern are evolved from feng shui, to a person who does not know any tomb pattern and feng shui techniques to find the tomb is difficult, but if you let a person who understands the reasoning to survey, then it is another story. However, hearing the gold detective called Hu Ba Yi's gold detective said its God has almost, heart can not help but have an interest in the gold line.

Master Qi, here. The big gold teeth handed over to me: You can keep it, although not worth a few dollars, but after all, it is your ancestral stuff, and is held by the gold detective. If my guess is good, your grandfather then can also be a well-known gold-detecting experts, from this gold talisman alone, it can not disgrace his orthodox gold-detecting lieutenant's identity.

I took the gold talisman, and pulled out cigarettes from his body to hand them both, the three people sat there and talked. Talking about more about the person called Hu Bayi when the gold-detecting lieutenant's deeds. To that Kunlun Mountain under the great glacier of the nine-story demon building, the border between China and Mongolia in the savage ditch in the Kwantung Army secret fortress, disappeared in the Taklamakan Black Desert in the ancient city of Jing Jie, the sacred mountain without low cave in the corpse of the konjac flower, and then to the jungle of Yunnan Province in the worm valley of the demon coffin, Tibet Kashi Kunlun Mountain in the Gugger Dynasty headless cave, Shaanxi's Dragon Ridge Cave and so on. These unveil the sky and dial the earth, the dragon shape tiger hide, the move of the overturning of the sea, enough to make the viewer shocked, heard the first tongue.

Talking about this, but listened to the fat man in a side said: This time to talk about the old Hu, my heart can not help but feel unenthusiastic, that kid is really, followed the American girl to the United States to go free, but how do not remember to come back to see us when the brothers. Before that kid in, but casually to that can pour a big bucket out, but now well, even if I want to work alone, but also do not have that ability to find the tomb.

The big gold tooth then also followed the emotion: fat master said is very good, we do not know the secret art of feng shui, the only way is to rely on certain techniques and tools to find the tomb, said so, but in fact, said how difficult it is more difficult.

Hearing this, I can't help but think of the feng shui with Li Changqing up the mountain when the feng shui survey found that piece of feng shui key points. In fact, when you think about it, there is a sea of earth energy, maybe there really is some ancient tomb left behind, and immediately said to them that the Long March we have overcome, that there are still any difficulties can be difficult to defeat the determination, in addition, it is not possible to say that there is an unknown tomb on this place exists.

The fat man listened to the spirit of a lift, said: Qi brothers, you do not see me nagging to say a thing out to tease me!

That is what words, I Qi Bai is not the kind of people who say falsehoods, see he did not believe, I will go up the mountain with Li Changqing today and said, heard the big gold teeth surprised: Qi master, I did not expect you also know the art of feng shui, I do not know how you learned this body skills.

I said, Master Jin, I forgot to tell you, my ancestors for generations to learn this skill.

The fat man listened, half-believing: Qi brothers, according to you, there will be ancient tombs on this place?

The big gold teeth afraid I misunderstood, busy to take the next words: fat master, I think this thing can not be fake, Master Qi's grandfather may also be with this body skills to do the gold detective, in addition. The man who is the master of Qi will take us to the ground to take a look, and then it will be clear?

At this point, it is obvious that the intention is to ask me to take them to find the tomb, I said you do not intend to go to do that kind of work can not?

The big gold teeth said with a smile: Master, say it clearly! In our line of work, since we met, there is no reason not to do it, it is like a treasure fell down the road, you can bend down to pick it up?

Fatty early in that fist rubbing, a big not to the Yellow River will not die situation, he said: Damn, I said, since the old Hu is not in, we really can not hold this body, this time we must feel a good meat dumpling to inevitable.

Big Gold Tooth then said, Master Qi, I have an idea, I don't know if I should say it or not.

This person how to give me this paragraph, say it straight on the line? Have to beat around the bush, I said what's the matter just say it!

At that, the big gold teeth just laughed: Master, I old gold no other meaning, just want to invite you to join us, I do not know what you think?

This guy said beautiful words, the reason for which is just want me to take them together to find the location of the tomb, but I myself and want to personally experience this touch gold which gives rise to the reverie of the move.

Only to hear the fat man said again aside: I say what else do you think? You are carrying an orthodox gold touching talisman. Touch is not a timid and fearful guy out of your Qi family, afraid to go?

The fat man used the right move to provoke, I was so excited by him, immediately angry: Fuck you, that is not what the dragon's den, why do not dare to go, the great people will not be intimidated by difficulties.

Big Gold Tooth smiled and said, So, Master Qi, you have agreed to this matter.

I said that there are false, I Qi Bai said the words, that is never backtrack.

Say do it, immediately the three of them will plan how to act. In order to determine whether there are tombs, I deliberately took them to the feng shui plateau to reconnoitre some, only to see the direction of the weather showed a living and breathing, which is enough to conclude that there must be traces of the bottom of this place can be found. Excited, but I heard Fatty shouting at us from a place full of weeds.

I and the big gold teeth to go over and take a look at the fat man's feet at the surprising appearance of a cave that allows a person's body to pass, the fat man at this time but cursed: his grandmother, not someone has already jumped ahead, the meat dumplings early to touch away.

The big gold teeth also could not help but suck in a breath and said, Master Fatty, looking at this situation, this is a robber hole is not false, it seems that someone has already found the tomb before us.

Fatty continued to curse, I say, Lao Jin, this is even more exasperating than when we ran into the big dumplings.

It is no wonder they are both so angry, anyone else will lose their temper when they encounter such a situation that is not as beautiful as it should be. My own heart is also uncomfortable, after all, this is what I did not expect, originally wanted to personally experience the gold experience, do not want to be a disadvantage ......

The fat man naturally saw my mind, then regained his happy-go-lucky character and said, What a joke, since I'm here, my dictionary does not have the word 'halfway'. Made a smiley face: Maybe I fat that luck to come, really let me pick up a big bargain in it, then you just wait to count the money!

The big gold teeth agreed: This is also true, and do not know whether this is really beaten out of the robber hole, it is possible that the animal shaved out of the cave is not allowed, if the orthodox gold detectives work, the tomb must have touched the rest of the treasure left for later counterparts, this is also the gold detectives have always existed in the style of action, I see the fat master's proposal can become.

After several discussions, the three decided that they could follow the discovery of the robber hole to find, but the tools for work is not ready, this can not be sloppy, but also do not know what will be inside to make people guess things happen, so they had to put things aside first, and together to get the tools and then go in.

Chapter 4: The Empty Cave

For the tools needed to touch gold, because I am the first time to participate, many of the things used in this area can not be a half-way person I know, such as flashlights, gloves, masks, candles, ropes, as well as the town of evil with glutinous rice, black donkey hooves, etc., a variety of cumbersome, a moment also can not prepare all these patterns, we had to act simply, anyway, the tomb has long been patronized, we are only responsible for measuring The air quality of the robber hole leading to the chamber and the emergency measures, we can directly touch down.

After everything was ready, we returned to the cave field of the robber cave, it was late in the day, more convenient for us to touch the gold act.

We each played a flashlight, put on gloves and masks, is about to crawl into the cave when the fat man seems to remember what to say: Wait, how I always feel a little wrong in my heart, as if I missed something important did not say.

I heard, now there should be a chance for me to criticize him a time! At that moment, I laughed and said, Things have come to this juncture, you fatty don't give me the excuse of backing off.

Go to ...... fatty glared at me and said: What are you kidding, I fatty will not have the guts? I just remembered that time with Laohu and Laojin in the Dragon Ridge Cave things, this time is not ordinary, Laohu that boy is not in, in case there is some kind of ghost cut the wall of the leak, no one is outside to meet, then the three of us is not the spirit of calling the ground, then do not think about what the treasure thing, directly stay inside for life!

Listen to the fat so reminded, big gold tooth is considered to remember these key things, said or fat master thoughtful, no one can say what will happen inside, in my opinion, the three of us must leave a person to watch out outside, so this way it is safe, heart is also secure."

Of course, I have to go in to explore the inevitable, fatty is never a piece of hands down idle, honestly for people watching the material. Finally, or by the big gold tooth guard outside the cave, I and fatty go in to explore the cave.

Fatty first crouched and crawled into the cave, I followed him, because the outside of the cave mouth connected to the chamber of the cave without any cover, air circulation, so even if you do not have to put in live animals for air measurement is not much of a problem, and we all wear masks on our mouths.

This robber hole is downward sloping, from time to time makes people suspect that maybe it is a deep hole dug by some kind of animal, rather than a robber hole made by a tomb raider with tools. However, I looked carefully around the cave wall and found that there were traces scraped out by hard objects everywhere, which was evidence of human tools, so that our concerns about the former could be completely eliminated.

I don't know how much depth to travel inside, because I and fatty front and back distance of about ten meters, then I happened to have been put in mind on the observation of the cave wall above, so also did not pay too much attention to the fatty in front of the move. Until I suddenly found no trace of the fat man in front of me, the heart of a chill, busy raising the flashlight to the front, only to see that the front has no way in, the end of the projection of a semi-circular boulder, strictly embedded in the cave wall. But, where did the fat man go?

Out of a person's first reaction, I shouted out loud, the voice in the cave echoed, and in a short while, I heard the response sent back from the fat man there: Here it is! Up there.

Above? Could there be another cave entrance here? Anyway, things are not as bad as I thought, there must be something fishy to find, so I hurriedly crawl forward, in this narrow hole, even if you want to fast can not get up.

It was only when I reached the place where the stone was blocked that it dawned on me that the burglary hole had gone to the top, probably because the previous burglary hole hit the boulder blocking the road in front of the ring, and it was impossible to break the stone and enter, so they had to dig another channel. The cave passage was enlarged, just enough to allow a person to have upright space upward, and then in the direct turn over the boulder blocking the road, after which I saw the fat man bent over the front crawl.

Fatty saw me follow up, said Qi brothers, just you shouted, I thought you met a big dumpling, I can not say, but also really afraid that you directly to the captive. I said just now did not pay much attention to your direction, I thought you let the dumplings take away.

Fatty smiled and said, That's just right, even if it's a big dumpling, fat master I'll dump it by the way, sell it to which museum for exhibition, earn it a handful of white silver.

As we spoke, the entrance of the robber hole connecting the tomb appeared within our sight, fatty first explored the lower side of the entrance of the tomb with a flashlight, and felt that the distance was not high, then jumped with confidence. I looked at the entrance, the following accumulated a pile of small mound-like earth, according to my guess, that may be the robber hole hit out. I followed and jumped down the chamber, probably making a few square meters of space like that, the light is reached, the front can also enter the next chamber. According to my father, in the past, the rich and noble family and the official family to build the house can be divided into multiple ear room, the main room, after the room. The main chamber was the place where the bodies of the buried people were stored, while the children's chamber was also known as the underworld hall, which could be used to place burial goods, etc.

I generally looked over, now we are in the tomb room may be in accordance with the tomb owner's former residence to restore, however, but there is no furniture, the underground chaos of many scattered wooden frame and wood, it is evident that the original suffered some degree of damage here, only to hear the fat man cursed: his grandmother, look at this situation, the guy who came in before but more than robbers! The dead are not allowed to rest in peace, and they have made a mess of their place.

Look at this situation, the previous patronage of this tomb is not what the gold detective. According to the big gold teeth, the gold-detecting door can be a moderate thief, there will never be damage to the tomb this kind of thing happens. Rumor has it that there are often rampant tomb raiders in the Hunan area, here may have come across some of the small people who have done something unethical.

We turned into the main chamber, there is no tomb bed, only a bite about a meter high, the coffin body is good mahogany black lacquer, the coffin is placed horizontally in the middle, the coffin lid has also been lifted half the mouth, and then to the back may be the place to place the bright ware, I am not in a hurry to explore inside, because even if there are also by the previous grave robbers all poured away, but not necessarily they will be so content, leaving a two pieces of treasure for you to pick up the bargain.

But the fat man did want to go in and take a look, not much time to hear his curses: Damn you, those guys were too inhumane before, not a single treasure left for the master.

I said your heart eyes are long to that, you still think they are such a rampant thieves will leave you treasure?

Fatty face unhappy, but the hands are not idle, pulled out a candle from the body, lit on the open fire placed in the southeast corner of the tomb, the mouth said this is our brother Laohu thousand instructions a thing, I fatty this head remember clearly. I laughed and said you point this also useless, the treasure inside the tomb have long been stolen, you just light the candle, the ghost will not blow out, because it simply does not have any treasure for you to touch.

The fat man set the candles, got up and said, This does not care, anyway, the old man said we did what he said before, my brother ah! Before is simply a political commissar of mine, and I am the commander, the bucket thing he said, I only care about the charge.

Hearing this, I would like to meet the tomb raiding connoisseur Hu Bayi, and immediately said, Oh! Then in the future, if there is an opportunity, I still need you Commander Wang to introduce me to Qi Bai.

That's no problem, only now it's better to finish things here first, I don't believe I can't pick up half a bargain yet. The fat man was still there with the delusion that he could finally find one or two treasures inside the coffin.

Two people will directly touch the coffin, there is a joint effort to push open the half-open coffin lid, the flashlight light to explore the inside, but it is empty, even half of the human bone scraps have not been.

What is this? Were even the remains of the tomb owner destroyed? This is too fucking inhumane!

I turned into the back room, as Fatty saw, is already an empty cave, but I was looking for the remains of the tomb owner, even if it was damaged, it can't even be bone scraps! Could it be that even the corpse was poured out, but the hole leading to the tomb is so narrow, that is how can not get out, but in addition to this, what else can explain. I turned back, the fat man on that grandparents cursing.

I said, What else are you cursing? Save some saliva, so as not to dry your mouth, his grandmother, this may even the bones of the corpse to those grave robbers pour to go.

Fatty listened to a gas: I just can't fucking swallow this, I have to curse those sons of bitches for ten generations.

Chapter 5: Sub-Mother Coffin

I laughed and ignored him, when again looking at the coffin, suddenly puzzled, look at the coffin is also really high surprisingly, look inside the coffin empty part but only half, the bottom of the solid bottom coffin is also half, what is the reason for this? Is it to use this to better isolate the earth's atmosphere to preserve the remains from decay? I went over to take a closer look, and reached out to touch the coffin, the fat man took a look at my actions, said: "This coffin top a fart ah! It is worth just a money we can not get out.

And ignore how the fat man said, I knocked again to the outer coffin, the echo is no substance. I suddenly remembered my father once told me something that he had seen in the literature on feng shui burial law, saying that in ancient times, when the nobles built their houses, they were afraid that thieves would sneak in later and destroy the translation of the Yin skeletons, so they would let their family money to specialize in Yin coffins to find the best wood, made with an open coffin and a dark coffin under the mother and son coffin, the open coffin usually put a show empty burial clothes and accompanying Burial goods, so as to conceal the tomb treasure hunt thieves, so that thieves open the coffin can not see the corpse, only see clothing and treasure will think that this is just an empty cave, touching the treasure there will be time to think back to the many things hidden inside. In fact, the remains of the buried person is placed in the dark coffin under the frame of the open coffin inside, the natural coffin treasures can be more valuable than the open coffin.

Fatty saw me look wrong, asked me what happened, I am not sure what I envisioned in my heart, so he did not say to him to greet him to the other end of the coffin, the two of them a good posture of the earth tail, fatty asked what is this? Can not you really want to carry the coffin back. I said there may be a dark coffin below, we might as well join forces to try to lift the open coffin up to see if we can find out what signs.

The coffin frame is slightly loose, and some places naturally have traces that are difficult for the eyes to reach. As long as you look carefully, it is not difficult to find that this coffin has a straight line formed by a subtle dark line, which proves that my vision just now is indeed traceable.

Fatty was happy, and praised me: My God, this dead guy how to lay a good coffin not sleep, but prefer to sleep in the bottom of the coffin, but, not to mention, I am now completely convinced of your Qi family brother's knowledge.

I listened to it, then showed unhappy, the Qi family brothers a few words earlier I listened to feel awkward, but he left a right sentence in that call, I said you can't fucking call something else? This 'Qi family brothers' let people listen to the ear.

The fat man laughed and said: That's not good, brother called up does not also look friendly? Besides, if I call you by your name directly, I'm afraid you won't be happy. Come on, your ancestors were at least a big landowner, but now it is the world of old Mao, not the old way, you now put on a big young master's frame, and I want to call you young?

The fat man is really, I just said a sentence with him, but he topped you dozens of sentences, which even the reasons for opposition are let him to say no. At once, I also ignored him now is not the time to gossip, have to put the matter in front of the settlement so as to withdraw, after all, in the pit of the dead gossip heart always feel so a little insecure.

Needless to say, the fat man is considered to be interested, and not to argue with me, the two of them rushed to make every effort to move the coffin, only to hear the eejit a few sounds, the upper part of the Ming coffin was moved by us, the natural phenomenon of running, but unfortunately there is no shovel and other tools, otherwise it can be used to insert the fissure and easily pry open, that can save time! Much better. We changed our position to the edge of the coffin, the two of us concentrated on a point of force to push to death, heard a rumble, the top of the coffin from the top of the flip to the cemetery under.

Fatty also disregarded a breath of air, then hurried to the light of the flashlight to the dark coffin to explore, only to see that the coffin was lying in a dumpling, dumplings dressed in gold are silver, the bottom lined with silk animal skin, which is most striking or the corpse head below the Chinese white jade pillow, vaguely even issued a bit of cold light, which can be described as the treasure of the best it! From these aspects of clothing and costumes, it seems that the burial is a female corpse, and from the degree of luxury of the burial goods, it seems that it should be which dynasty of the princes and nobles, the face of the skin although dry crude, but the preservation is still intact. Ancient extravagant royalty, superstitious jade can cold corpse, that jade is mountain elite, the gold and jade placed in the nine orifices of the person, the essence of the person will not leak, so that the corpse does not rot, can seek rebirth in the next life, so the jade used for funeral ancient and modern times occupy Important position, so the coffin inside in addition to the jade pillow, but also large and small distribution of some jade in the skeletal remains around. However, here is not to see any inscriptions about the tomb owner's life story, from the coffin inside those valuable burial goods can be seen, the tomb of the person is not respectable that is noble, anyway, not some idle people.

The only thing we have not seen is that we both can not see which dynasty which generation of the tomb, if the big gold tooth in the words, with his skills, it is not difficult to speculate, I think we are not what archaeological research, just take the treasure to get rich is, that also care so much.

In the meantime, fatty's hand is not idle, long in that meat dumpling body from top to bottom touching, attempting to find something more valuable. I looked at a laugh, said: You still touch an air ah! All the treasure is not all early here?

Fatty said, His grandmother, I'm just afraid that this dumpling also came to a secret hidden treasure. [The book was uploaded by Brown Sugar Dumplings, more good books in the horror novel forum kbtxt.com]

I said, You be careful, we are here to seek wealth, do not spoil people's Yin skeletons. I see, you also do not touch, this meat dumplings under the pillow of jade pillow may be worth a hundred thousand or so.

I said this excitement, causing the fat man hurriedly hand diagonal touch to the bottom of the jade pillow, only to feel a trace of coolness from the feel of the hand, can not help but happy: No, it is really a valuable treasure, or you have a good eye. After saying that, the two of them figured out how to get out of the jade pillow, first of all, the fat man carefully lift the head of the dumplings, I laid hands on the jade pillow Qingqing to move away. That hand just touched the jade body, suddenly, feeling a chill behind the attack, my heart a hanging, careful to look back, that just still in a good burning candle is some time silent extinguished, I could not help but shout a ghost blowing light

The fat man heard, the face has been changed for the most part, but still forced calmly said: the wind blowing it! Wait for me to go over and relight it. Said then went over to the extinguished candle lit, the fire is not subject to external resistance straight upward burning.

I turned my head to the dumplings steal a look, but also did not see what the growth of the first corpse of the fierce hair, the heart immediately relaxed, fatty rushed to follow over to continue to carry the corpse to let me down to touch the treasure. Have not touched the corpse, but see that the dumpling's belly button at a slight bulge, and then slowly and gradually increased into an arc round.

This baffling scene straight look at the two of us at a loss, simply do not know what is going on. As the belly grew larger and larger, suddenly poof broke open. From inside out a round mixed body sticky wet round head, only to see that the round head with a pair of huge eyes, eyes for the blood red, the mouth is even more frightening, the whole round head a word crack, revealing two rows of eerie sharp teeth. Fatty and I felt a chill in our hearts, cold Han was unconscious from the forehead, who knew that the round head of the large eye sockets towards me a glare, the most in the sound of wah wah, and then rise up to attack me, but I am not what mediocre, in the end, with the master practiced the framework of the people, in this time of lightning, I Hurry to bend down, to avoid the round head of the sudden head-on blow. The round head see not succeeded, and turn the head to open the big mouth with sharp teeth to crash into the fat, the fat has been prepared, bend and flash to my side.

Chapter 6: Fetal Fury

Only then did we see clearly the full face of the round head, the body is not big, it is also a newborn baby that size, there is a head and body, and a pair of small hands, is the lower body more than a long tail, it can fly in the air, its horrible shape straight to our scalp, nothing to counter.

The fat man's heart was palpitating and said, Holy shit! What kind of monster is this? Just look at its round head cracked mouth, already enough to scare people's guts, if there is a guy in hand, even if it is a shovel, I will have to shoot it flat.

The fear in my heart is not less than Fatty, but this time the heart cold is useless, perhaps Fatty is right, if we have shovels and other tools in hand, then we can still bo abo with this personal monster, but in addition to the body flashlight, candles, rope, but what can be used for the tools are not.

The monster is not human, which will not let you think before and after, suddenly pounced on my face, the little thing is too fast, there is no defense, fortunately I reached out two hands to grab its body, so that it can not advance, the monster issued a strange force is not ordinary, than I thought it would come more violent, almost can not hold, let it bite to the face. My heart tightened and I shouted to the fat man on the side: Quick, put the black donkey hooves on you into its mouth.

At this, the fat man woke up with the black donkey hooves and glutinous rice, and quickly stepped forward, directly from behind to pinch the human monster's tiny erection, grabbing the black donkey hooves in his hand was about to stuff the big mouth, but unexpectedly the monster's long tail swung up towards the fat man, even though the fat man's fat and strong body also swept away. My heart is anxious, I do not know where the divine power, quickly change to grab its long tail, a forceful fling, the monster thrown out, bump impact on the tomb wall.

Take this gap, I and fatty busy retreat to the exit of the burial chamber, the human monster after just put a hit, but not the slightest thing, and rose up to follow, this guy seems to be a grudge, but fast and incomparable from behind me, I was hit by it, can not hold, the blood rolled down to the ground, fatty can not be ambiguous, manipulate the hand of the flashlight to the monster's round head to hit hard, but that It is simply knocked on the steel in general, the tiger mouth instead of shocked. From the body to feel a handful of glutinous rice to the monster a sprinkle, hiss a few sounds, the monster wah wah wah shouted, back a little distance, glutinous rice as if from its body a chemical reaction in general.

Fatty waited for me to get up and said, Damn, this monster is very difficult, the whole body is hard, it is simply invulnerable.

I grew up so big, but also have not seen such a world now, and
