We left Sun Zheng's house and just stood in the hall for a while before we came out and returned to Tu Xingsun's house.
Tu Xingsun asked his parents to boil water and make tea.
Then he sat us down and introduced us in detail while making tea.
After the tea was brewed, Tu Xingsun asked his parents to go back to the room and said he wanted to tell us something.
I unlocked his handcuffs, and he started making tea for us.
After drinking two cups, he stood up and said, "Come, follow me.
I'll tell you about the big locust tree first."
We followed Tu Xingsun to a corner of his house, and there was a small room inside, which looked like a toilet.
After he turned on the light, he found a toilet inside.
What was he doing in this toilet when he brought us in?
This toilet is not big, it looks like only about five square meters.
He looked at us, then bent down and pressed the toilet with both hands, and pushed it in hard.
A clattering sound was heard, and the toilet was pushed open, and where it was originally, a toilet about one meter long was revealed.
One meter square entrance.
With a click, Tu Xingsun turned on the miner's lamp and slowly went down through the entrance.
I quickly followed and found that there was an iron ladder under the entrance, going down step by step, about three meters high.
Tu Xingsun turned on the light, and the surrounding situation became clear instantly.
It was a square secret room.
There were many things in the secret room, but they were all covered with canvas.
They were obviously artifacts he took out from the tomb.
“These are my collections over the years of working in the industry.
Some of them were kept by me because I couldn’t find a good buyer.
Some of them I liked very much, and some were relatively rare, so I kept them for the bottom of the box.
A lifelong struggle, for several consecutive years I didn’t put any old items at the bottom of the box, so as not to be laughed at by my colleagues."
He put his hands on his hips, then turned to look at us and said, "I showed you the secret room where I escaped, you can believe me now.
I sincerely cooperate with you."
"The secret room to escape."
I turned around, and there was a door next to it, locked with a big lock.
Tu Xingsun took out the key, opened the lock, opened the door, pointed to the outside and said: "This is the tunnel I spent a year digging outside, just in case of accidents, to escape from here, and it is indeed from here."
Escaped dozens of times.”
"Then why did you tell us the escape tunnel?"
I looked at him intently.
"I'm tired of running."
Tu Xingsun squeezed out a smile and said: "I can run once, ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times, but I was caught once.
Once I entered, I squatted for eight years and spent the most youthful life in my life.
I spent eight years in prison, and I kept telling myself that I must be a good person after I get out, and stop doing this kind of thing.
As long as I sell these things, I will have enough food and clothing for the rest of my life, but after I get out, I will be free.
After several months, I finally couldn't bear it anymore My hands were itchy, so I went to Taoli Village.
Unexpectedly, I met Zongzi and was followed by you.
This was the second time.
I didn’t expect that I would be caught by you when I returned to the village after I succeeded.
I thought it was God’s will.
I don’t want to do this job anymore.
The prison is too scary.
If it weren’t for Lao Chen and Lao Wang’s management and explanation, and I used the money, I would have been ruined in there, or I would have been unable to bear it long ago. , died inside."

"Did you get beaten?"
I looked at him dumbfounded.
"Being beaten is one thing, and the other thing is that there are no women in prison, so some who are smaller and look like women will be noticed.
I have personally seen many people who were tortured and committed suicide by cutting their veins.
One of them directly He hit a wall, and one of them sharpened the toothbrush rod and stabbed someone who wanted to kill him."
When he said this, Tu Xingsun's eyes showed fear.
I understand, but Yuelan may not understand, and I can't explain it to her.
Finally Tu Xingsun raised his head and said: "I will give all these to you.
Please let me go.
I will definitely change my ways.
Tomorrow I will ask my parents to arrange a blind date for me.
I will marry a wife, have children, and find a job." ,How about it" Yuelan and I looked at each other, and I turned to Tu Xingsun and said, "Let's talk about the locust tree first."
"Okay."
Tu Xingsun nodded repeatedly and said, "Follow me.
You will understand when we walk out from here."
Yuelan and I followed him and walked out of that door.
Outside the door is a hole in the earth, like a mine tunnel.
There are no bricks or cement around it, but the earth is very solid and will not collapse under normal circumstances.
After walking out for about a hundred meters, there were three branching roads in front of him.
Tu Xingsun pointed to the one on the left and said: "The exit of this one is in a sewer over there in the university town.
The exit of the middle one is outside the village entrance.
On the right This passage leads to a nearby abandoned temple.
I have successfully escaped through these three passages.
Generally, the police will set up an ambush at the entrance of the village, so I usually run to the university town.
There are a lot of people there.
Once I get mixed in with the crowd, who will escape?
They can’t catch me.”
"It's really a cunning rabbit with three holes."
I said with a smile.
"There is no other way.
In addition to hiding from the police, we also need to hide from our enemies."
Tu Xingsun smiled slightly and said, "Let's take the middle road."
We walked along the middle road, and walked a few dozen meters further.
Suddenly, a thick tree root lay across the middle of the corridor, blocking the middle.
We walked in front of the tree root, which was big enough for me.
Tu Xingsun pointed to the root and said, "See, this is the root of the big locust tree."
"It's so thick."
I was a little dumbfounded, and I said, "How far is it from the big tree?"
"One hundred and twenty meters."
Tu Xingsun said, "Look at the top of your head."
When we looked up, the top of the cave was covered with dense roots, which were obviously the roots of a locust tree.
I was dumbfounded and said, "So, its roots are more than 120 meters long."
"Yes, this was thirteen years ago.
When I was digging this tunnel, I discovered these tree roots.
Now that so many years have passed, I'm afraid the tree roots have grown a lot more."

Tu Xingsun said, "Because it's I saw with my own eyes that Sun Zheng was bleeding when he cut down a tree, so I was very careful when digging the hole.
You can see the angle of the hole.
It was originally facing the direction of the big locust tree.
I made a 90-degree turn and went in another direction because I accidentally broke it before.
Some tiny tree roots, bleeding.”
Yuelan and I looked at each other.
This Tu Xingsun obviously didn't lie, because we tested it.
Tu Xingsun said: "My inference is this, because the roots of the tree are very long and go in all directions.
With it as the center, within a radius of one or two hundred meters, as long as its roots can reach For houses built in local areas, you will hear the sound of chanting sutras in the middle of the night.
For other houses that are out of range and there are no tree roots under the house, you will not hear the sound of chanting sutras.
Do you think this inference is not valid?"
My eyes widened suddenly and I said in surprise: "It is possible, and the possibility is very high.
The roots of the tree, that is, the reach of the big tree, although not under the tree, are still within the sphere of influence of the locust tree."
"Okay, I'll take credit for your contribution."
I looked at my watch and said, "It's almost dawn, and the five girls kneeling under the tree are about to wake up.
Let's go up and ask them who they belong to."
"It takes about ten minutes to walk from here to the village entrance.
It takes five minutes to walk back from the village entrance to reach the big locust tree."
Tu Xingsun crawled under the roots of the tree instead of stepping over it.
Yuelan and I were also a little dumbfounded, but we also got under the roots of the tree, because the roots saved Yuelan, and we must respect it
