Guanzhong Tomb Robbery Notes

Chapter 121: Settle the family and set off

"Take you there?" I hesitated.

Tomb robbing is a shameful thing.

What's more, the tomb of Guard Jiang is also the ancestral tomb of Jiang Nanle.

To be honest, it is not uncommon for later generations to rob their own ancestors' tombs.

In 2006, Lv Fuping from Wulitou Village, Lantian, set his sights on his ancestral tomb.

After figuring out the location of his ancestral tomb, he found four tomb robbers to dig into the tomb.

What a coincidence, those four tomb robbers were the ones who had worked hard for me in the past. They had learned some skills and were now working outside.

They robbed the tomb of Lu Dalin, the ancestor of the Lu family and the master of epigraphy in the Song Dynasty.

Epigraphy is ancient archaeology.

Mainly focuses on the study of bronzes and stone carvings.

Because bronze ware is made of metal and stone carvings are made of stone, it is called epigraphy.

The word "archaeology" comes from "Archaeological Pictures" written by Lu Dalin.

So after Lu Dalin’s tomb was robbed, people in the circle said that the tomb robbers had dug up the tomb of the founder of archaeology.

When I was thinking about how to convince Jiang Nanle not to go, the girl frowned and said coldly, "If you don't take me with you, I won't tell you anything."

Well, this girl is being stubborn again.

Forget it, the tomb robbery can’t be kept secret for long.

It’s better to speak frankly.

"We can take you there, but we have to tell you that we are tomb robbers."

"Grave robbing, you know?"

Jiang Nan nodded slightly: "I understand."

"That bastard Second Uncle is a grave robber. He led people to dig up the old graves in the neighboring village. That's why the people in the neighboring village tried to kill my father when they were fighting over water!"

"They killed my father, so I'm going to grind our ancestors to dust!"

"Every one of the Jiang family will be killed, no one will have an easy life!"

Her face became more and more ferocious, and her tone became colder and colder.

What he said made my hair stand on end.

This is no longer being stubborn.

But a crazy woman!

She wanted to drag everyone in the Jiang family to be buried with her father.

I rubbed my forehead.

Thinking that her emotions were unstable, no amount of comfort would help. Taking her to the tomb would help her release her emotions and relieve stress.

"We're going to dig up Guard Jiang's tomb tonight. You can take a break first. We'll call you when we set off in the evening."

After sending Jiang Nanle back to his room, I also returned to my room.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw Cui Hao staring at a piece of paper.

She seemed to be wiping away tears.

What's going on with this guy?

I tiptoed over to see what was on the paper.

But as soon as I got closer, Cui Hao realized that I was back.

He immediately balled up the paper and hid it behind his back, forcing a smile and saying, "Brother, you're back."

"It's so difficult, how can I say it? Do you know where Guard Jiang's tomb is?"

I pointed behind him and said, "What are you holding? Let me see."

"No, it's nothing."

"It's really nothing, just stop looking."

Cui Hao was hiding something and stuffed the ball of paper into his trouser pocket.

I smiled and tickled his armpits.

"Itchy, hahahaha."

"Brother, stop scratching me. I can't stand the itch."

"If you can't stand it, take it out and let me see it." As I spoke, my hand had already reached into his trouser pocket.

It was too late for Cui Hao to stop him.

I took out the paper and unfolded it, only to see several correct characters written on it.

Obviously this is used to record the date.

I have been memorizing these five correct characters and three strokes for twenty-eight days.

Twenty-eight days ago, The Curse Among Us.

Nearly one-third of the three months have passed, and there is not much time left.

I returned the paper to Cui Hao: "What else is there to hide?"

"I'm sorry for you. If I hadn't let you go down, you wouldn't have been cursed."

I still feel a little guilty towards Cui Hao.

He went to the grave to help me.

But he ended up being cursed.

Cui Hao used his two index fingers to push the corners of his mouth upwards.

He made clown-like movements and smiled at me.

"Brother, I was the one who wanted to follow you. I don't blame you."

"Even if we really go to the underworld, we brothers can still keep each other company and continue to be good brothers in the next life."

"I just can't let go of my parents and sister."

"I want to go home and settle down."

"Once we have settled them, we will have no worries."

I was stunned.

Cui Hao's desire to settle his family is something I have never wanted to face.

How should grandpa be settled?

If my grandfather knew about my death, he would definitely not be able to bear it.

How should Zhang Nan settle down?

I want to settle someone down, but I don’t have the right identity.

And Professor Zhang...

But everything has to be faced.

"After we finish robbing Guard Jiang's tomb, we'll go back. We'll split the money in half. You can take your share and go back to settle your family."

"Brother, I don't want to share the money..."

I held Cui Hao's shoulders and said with a smile, "We came out to rob tombs just to make life better for our families."

"If the worst happens... I have to give the money to my family first, but I have to make up a good reason as to where the money came from."

"Besides, living off the savings won't work either."

"In the long run, it's best to have a business to support the family."

I said as I pondered.

I was thinking about setting up a business to make a living for Zhang Nan.

With her ability, there will be no problem in running the business, and at least she will have no worries about food and clothing in the future.

After settling all the funeral affairs, go to Master Yu’s tomb to find the Seven-Star Nail, and go to the cave to find the Baon Snake.

There will be no worries and you can give it a try.

dong dong.

I was lost in thought when there was a knock on the door.

Then Old Li pushed the door open and walked in. "How's the question? Little girl, do you know where Guard Jiang's tomb is?"

"She agreed to take us there, and we'll do it tonight."

"Hit!" Old Li slapped his thigh happily.

"I'll have those two bastards prepare right away."

"Drive the donkey cart out first, to avoid making too much noise at night."

I nodded and said, "Okay, let's leave at ten o'clock in the evening."

After setting the departure time, Lao Li left excitedly.

In a blink of an eye, it was ten o'clock in the evening.

I pushed open the door of the next room and called Jiang Nanle.

As soon as I pushed the door open, a cold light hit my neck.

I quickly took two steps back.

Only then did I see clearly that the cold light was the blade of a kitchen knife.

Jiang Nanle kept swinging the knife, his eyes full of vigilance.

Seeing that it was me outside the door, she slowly lowered her arms and said apologetically, "I thought someone had bad intentions."

"You girl... do you even sleep with a knife?"

Jiang Nan nodded.

It's obvious that she's extremely insecure.

Those people in the Jiang family are really committing sins.

To force a good girl into this state.

"It's time to go, let's go."

I took Cui Hao and Jiang Nanle out of the yard.

Old Li was waiting at the door.

He rented this yard, which was at the outermost edge of the town, so he wouldn't attract attention if he entered or left late at night.

"Everyone is here, let's go."

We walked about a mile before we saw a donkey cart parked on the side of the road.

The coffin had been unloaded from the donkey cart, and Daquan and Ershuan were lying in the cart, snoring loudly.

Old Li took two steps forward and slapped the two men on the head.

"Sleep, sleep, sleep, all you do is sleep! Why don't you two sleep yourself to death?"

"I'm getting sleepy from waiting like that, Master, please don't hit me!"

When Ershuan saw Lao Li preparing to take off his shoes, he quickly covered his head with his hands to protect it.

I stepped forward to stop Lao Li and said, "Brother Li, there will be plenty of time to teach my apprentices in the future. You can't delay your work."

"That's right, I'll deal with these two bastards after I finish the work."

"Get in the car and hurry to the Jiang family's old grave!"
