In the end, Liu Xuance still didn't make up his mind to leave with me, which made us feel a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, Liu Xuance didn't say anything, but added another sentence: "You two can try to find an ancient room on this mountain." temple."
Of course Gu Xinlie and I knew that the ancient temple Liu Xuance was talking about was probably the ancient tomb, but looking at this, if Gu Xinlie and I failed, Liu Xuance would not follow us.
After saying that, Liu Xuance yawned and left the room.
"Is this a test?"
I smiled, not knowing what to say.
"There's nothing to be nervous about.
He only said that he found the ancient temple and didn't tell us what to do.
Don't be too embarrassed."
Gu Xinlie patted my shoulder and said softly.
After resting for a while, Gu Xinlie and I packed up and prepared to go to the mountains to look for ancient temples.
The mountain we are on is not very big, but it is by no means easy to get around.
Gu Xinlie and I plan to first look at the small front and bottom of the mountain, and then slowly spread to Back mountain.
After making a plan, the two of us set off.
After coming out of Liu Xuance's cabin, we walked down the mountain.
We didn't have many things on us, and we had just about the same amount of rest, so we walked very quickly without much delay, taking advantage of the dim light.
The setting sun began to wander around the woods.
While I was looking for it carefully, I held my hand on the handle of the instant knife behind my waist and did not dare to let go.
There are a lot of wild animals in this mountain, not to mention black and blind tigers, there are quite a few wild boars.
Being attacked by this beast is no joke.
It is really impossible if you don't have the ability to defend yourself.
We started walking around the foot of the mountain.
Gu Xinlie and I never stopped for a moment from the beginning.
We had been walking for almost two hours, but we found nothing at all.
I took a few deep breaths, patted Gu Xinlie's shoulder, and said, "It's not an option to continue searching like this.
Let's go back to the village first.
It's getting dark soon.
We might as well go in and ask the fellow villagers if they have any news about the ancient temple. ” Gu Xinlie listened to what I said and nodded.
This method is indeed much better than the two of us looking for it ourselves.
Although this hill is not big, no matter how familiar Gu Xinlie and I are, we will definitely not be more familiar with some of the hunters in the village. , instead of running around like headless flies, it’s better to ask them about the legend of this so-called ancient temple.
With that said, Gu Xinlie and I returned to the nearest village.
As soon as we entered the village entrance, we happened to bump into the accountant who was hurriedly rushing out of the village.
"Brother, what are you doing here?"
I asked with a smile.
The accountant's surname was Liu.
He also knew me.
He was not very old and had lived in this village for nearly twenty years.
He was a decent person. kind.
"Hey, Xiao Linzi, don't make trouble with me.
It's urgent.
I'll treat you to a drink when you come back."
Accountant Liu patted my shoulder, a little anxious, as if there was something urgent.
"What the hell, bro, why is it so urgent?"
I chuckled.
Accountant Liu replied: "Isn't there a big crack in our back mountain?

No one has known what's in it for decades.
Today, something went wrong.
Mr.
Zhao's dog took out an antique from inside.
This bitch is so evil that even the county’s archaeological team was alarmed, saying that this is It's to make a big tomb, my God, you don't know, three or four big trucks came, and I don't know how many good things they pulled.
Now the village chief is still busy with these people.
I went over to calculate the order, and half of the people in the village were It's over."
Accountant Liu spoke quickly and finished his sentence after a while.
When Gu Xinlie and I heard this, our eyes almost popped out of our eyes.
Could it be that the ancient tomb discovered by the archaeological team was the ancient temple that Liu Xuance mentioned?
Isn't this okay?
If it were true, it would be really difficult to handle.
The public and family members are all occupying the top of the mountain.
This is not a matter of first-come, first-served.
Gu Xinlie and I pursed our lips, said a few polite words to send Accountant Liu away, and then walked back to the village with our heads down.
Looking at this, it would be inconvenient to find something in the mountains tonight.
Wait until tomorrow.
After these archaeological teams leave, they are almost ready to take action.
If we really bump into each other at this time, anyone with a certain level of skill will be able to tell that Gu Xinlie and I are not ordinary people.
If we cause other troubles, it will not be worth the gain.
After entering the village, Gu Xinlie and I went straight to my old house.
We opened the door and entered the house.
We looked around and when we saw that no outsiders could see us, we locked the door.
"There is a big tomb in the back mountain, so it shouldn't be the ancient temple."
Gu Xinlie washed his face after entering the house and said to me.
"The Northeast is not like the South.
It used to be a disaster-stricken area.
I don't know how many people died during the war.
Basically, this place can be regarded as a tomb for every ten steps x a hundred steps.
Because it is too remote, no one has ever come, and the natural environment has been preserved.
It's also relatively intact.
It seems that there really is a big tomb in the back mountain, otherwise the archaeological team wouldn't be alerted.
As for whether it is an ancient temple, I really don't know.
I'll tell you later when I go to see it tomorrow."
He untied it and put it on the table, lit a cigarette and said softly.
"The tombs that can alarm the archaeological team are usually of historical significance.
They don't like small tombs, but they don't know what they can find in the mountains.
If they encounter the yellow-skinned tomb, they may know that there are tomb robbers.
Passed."
Gu Xinlie wiped his face and frowned.
"Don't worry about it.
The people in the mountains are not very educated.
It's nothing new for hunters to get into trouble when they see it.
Occasionally, there are people who touch coffins inadvertently.
These officials can only turn a blind eye.

This The people in the deep mountains and old forests haven't been able to find us yet, but we don't know how big their battle is this time.
There are several trucks of exposed weapons.
If it is true according to what Accountant Liu said, this tomb is really not small."
I squinted my eyes and followed. said.
"This too"
Just as Gu Xinlie was about to speak, there was a sudden "dong dong dong" knock on the door.
I looked suspicious and made a silent gesture to Gu Xinlie.
Then I walked quietly to the door and took a look.
It turned out to be Uncle Liu.
I breathed a sigh of relief and opened the door with a smile.
As soon as Uncle Liu entered the room, he grinned and said, "Xiao Linzi, come and help me."
I lowered my head and saw that Uncle Liu was carrying a few mixed vegetables in his hand, and there were still some vegetables under his feet.
There was a case of beer.
"Your aunt is not at home.
I thought you two might not have eaten either, so I came over to join the table.
Zhongbuzhong."
"Fine," I said with a chuckle, moved the table to the kang, then set the table with Uncle Liu and started drinking.
In other words, after all, rural people are honest, they don't know how to sell wine and they don't know how to talk nonsense.
They are all talking from the bottom of their hearts.
After drinking for a while, I licked my lips and said, "Uncle Liu, tell me if there are any ancient tombs or temples on the mountain behind us."
Since ancient times, people in the mountains have always believed that tomb robbing is just a craft that makes money and lays bricks.
There is no moral problem.
This is the case in the north.
In the southern Xiangxi area, killing and selling goods is a side job.
The mountain people work as farmers during the day and as bandits at night.
They hide in the woods and kill passing merchants from other places, never leaving any survivors alive.
This is forced by the living environment for thousands of years, relying on mountains to eat mountains and water to eat water.
As long as there are ancient tombs nearby, someone will dig them.
In remote areas, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and the king's law cannot control it, although no one can explain this legally.
So, what people in the mountains are not afraid of the most is the so-called rules and regulations, and they have to constrain their hands in everything they do.
Of course, most of these things happened before liberation.
Now everyone has land to farm, but no one is willing to take the risk of digging up those ancient ruins.
Tomb.
This is why I dared to talk to Uncle Liu about robbing ancient tombs.
Uncle Liu smacked his tongue and told me that before liberation, the village was crazy poor and there were one or two "coffin thieves" in every household.
He went into the mountains specifically to hunt and dig holes.
At that time, the village was so poor that he could even chew grass roots.
Grave robbing was just like defecating on the ground, and no one took him seriously.
Later, people began to spread rumors that there were treasures in the back mountain.
It was said that a god had left a temple, and there were treasures under the temple.
There were also people in the village at that time, but the place was very evil, and many people who went there died.
Uncle Liu's great-grandfather was also one of the original members, but he also fell into it in the end, and no bones were left.
Uncle Liu squinted his eyes, lit up the cigarette, exhaled a puff of smoke, pursed his lips, and then continued: "It was like that in the past, it is like that now.
Xiao Linzi, when Uncle Wang was alive, I knew that your family was not simple. , most of them do this for a living, but Uncle Liu doesn’t think there’s anything bad about it.
What can make money is good craftsmanship, but I can tell you, you can go anywhere in this mountain, but you can’t go to the temple. ” When I heard about the temple, I guessed that Bulishi was the ancient temple Liu Xuance was talking about, so I opened my mouth and asked, "Uncle Liu, where is this temple?"

"There is a big ditch in the back mountain.
Walking north along the ditch, there are two cliffs.
That is Niutou Mountain.
The temple is at the foot of Niutou Mountain.
Uncle, don't go there.
That place is weird.
It's so bad.
I heard that even tigers don't dare to go in after chasing their prey."
Uncle Liu took a puff of cigarette and said seriously.
I scratched my head.
In these deep mountains and forests, there were too many dangerous things and many evil people.
A few words would not scare me.
I had already decided to leave in my heart, but on the surface I couldn't tell Uncle Liu, so I quickly changed the topic and started drinking with him.
Judging from the appearance, most of the people who have been to the temple have not come back, and no one has been to the village now.
But even if it is dangerous, I have to go and have a look.
After all, I really want Liu Xuance to help me and wait until death.
Twenty years, with my temperament, that is absolutely impossible.
After Uncle Liu left in the evening, Gu Xinlie and I had a long talk, and finally we unanimously decided that we should go to this temple and not come back empty-handed.
Early the next morning, Gu Xinlie and I went out early, washed our faces, ate something simple, and went out.
For the sake of safety, before leaving, I went to borrow the black mastiff from the waiter.
The waiter said that when we get to the mountain, the dog will run home by itself as soon as we blow the whistle, so there is no need to worry.
Gu Xinlie and I also knew how powerful this beast was, so we bought a backpack of meat from the Cuntou Supermarket and planned to take advantage of this beast's ferocity to go into the mountains
