Chapter 1: Tomb Robbery and Blowing the Lantern (1)


Wu Duan's first contact with the tomb robbery industry was when he was very young.

An uncle in the village who traveled from south to north drank with Wu's father during the Chinese New Year, and people were relatively lacking in spirit at that time, except for watching TV, bragging was the main entertainment for adults.

Uncle not only bragged, but also took out something to open everyone's eyes.

Uncle said that it is called the jade pillow, the pillow of the pillow.

Wu Duan only glanced at it from a distance, it was a child carved out of jade, green, kneeling, leaning forward horizontally, as if he was kowtowing to someone.

The back of a child is slightly concave and curved, which is indeed the shape of a pillow.

Wu Duan didn't know at the time that it was a funeral item, a pillow for the dead, and he was very puzzled for a while, who would pillow that thing, wouldn't he be panicked The uncle also persuaded Wu's father to buy the jade pillow, saying that it would be sold for a large price in the future.

Wu's father was timid, and when he heard that the jade pillow was brought out by a tomb robber, where did he dare to handle it, and besides, the financial power of the family was not in his hands, so he politely refused the other party's persuasion.

Later, the uncle who had shown the jade pillow never came back after leaving the village once, and there were various rumors about him in the village, some said that he was killed by his accomplices who robbed the tomb because of the uneven distribution of the spoils, some said that he was caught and sentenced by the police, and some said that he became the leader of the tomb robbery, very rich, and never came back.

This was Wu Duan's first impression of tomb robbers and tomb robbers, and he especially remembered that uncle was holding a wine glass, foaming at the mouth and boasting about the value of the jade pillow, full of fireworks and fireworks, a little mysterious, but not chattering.

Wu Duan came back to his senses from his short memories and began to look at the case file on the table, and while reading, he relayed to Yan Sixian, who was also concerned about the case: "The Linguan Town Police Station reported to the Nancheng Branch, because it may have been involved in tomb robbery, and Mocheng has never had a tomb robbery case, so the branch will report to our city bureau."

Early this morning, the dog raised by the forester in the village ran to a family that had a good relationship with the forester, barking incessantly.

When the man came out, the dog bit the man's shoe and motioned for him to follow.

The man of the house felt strange, so he went out with the dog, and when he saw that he was about to enter the mountain, he called two young young men to follow him with a sickle."

Yan Sixian asked: "Isn't it all agricultural automation now, why do you still use sickles?"

"The situation of Tongcun is a bit special, because there is also a kind of Chinese medicinal material in the nearby mountains, so in addition to farming, the villagers of Tongcun also take medicine collection as a sideline, and every year only from the sale of medicinal materials, each household can earn thousands of yuan more, and when the price is good, it is more profitable than farming.

Of course, the villagers also love the ecological environment in the mountains, and the oldest manual method is used to collect medicines, and the sickle is a necessary tool for the villagers to enter the mountain, and they can be used to cut weeds or something.

Moreover, in a few days, it will enter the dog days, and the summer Futian is the time to collect medicines, so probably every household is preparing in advance. ” Yan Sixian was a little surprised, "You know the situation in Tongcun quite well." ” "I know all the towns and villages under the jurisdiction of Mocheng."

Wu Duan has worked hard, there is a ready-made human flesh encyclopedia, and Yan Sixian is relaxed.

Wu Duan continued: "The three followed the dog into the mountain, walked for more than a day, and found the body of the forest keeper in the middle of the night, and he also guarded a dog by his side, both dogs were raised by the forest guard, it is said that it is very humane, the dog should be after the owner was injured, decided to divide the labor and cooperate, one stayed to protect the owner, and the other went back to the village for help, but unfortunately the owner still died. ” "How do people die?"

"I was stabbed several times in the abdomen, died of hemorrhagic shock, and was left with a struggle wound on my arm."

"Then how is this person's death related to tomb robbing," Yan Sixian asked.

"Because there is a team of people in the village, big bags and small bags, they also spend the night at a villager's house, saying that they are borrowing for the night, but in fact, they also give some money.

I also inquired about the situation in the mountains with the villagers, especially interested in the legends of that area, and asked the villagers to help find a guide into the mountain.

The villagers said that they were most familiar with the forester, so they called the forester.

As soon as the forest keeper heard that the villagers who were afraid to go to the hinterland of the mountains to collect medicine, they were frightened and did not want to go, but they offered a high price.

According to the description of the villagers present, it should have been directly auctioned out of 30,000 or 40,000 cash, and said that it was just a deposit, and when it came out, there was still money, and the forest keepers were tempted.

According to the villagers' recollections, they entered the mountain four days ago, that is, on July 10, looking at the distance, just after walking a little more than a day, the forest keeper was killed, and the tourists suspected of being tomb robbers were nowhere to be found. ” After reading the case file together, Yan Sixian said: "It's too hasty to conclude that outsiders are going to rob tombs based on these alone." ” Wu Duan: "So I have to go to the field to see, talk to the villagers who know, together" Yan Sixian nodded, "Together." ” It was very hot, the sun was dazzling, Wu Duan was driving, but he forgot to wear sunglasses when he went out this morning, and had to squint his eyes, Yan Sixian casually took out a pair of sunglasses from the utility box between the two, "You wear this first." ” Wu Duan happily took it and put it on.

Yan Sixian glanced at him, "Give it to you, it's more suitable for you." ” While waiting for the traffic light, Wu Duan looked in the mirror on the visor.

It was a boxy classic men's sunglasses, and when he was on the news, he seemed to have seen a traffic student who had been very popular recently worn sunglasses of a similar shape, and I don't know if it was the same style.

Whether it is the same paragraph or not, Yan Sixian's things are worth a lot of money, Wu Duan refused, and Yan Sixian did not force it.

Yan Sixian asked, "Have you ever read a book involving the metaphysics of Feng Shui such as the Book of Changes?"

Wu Duan: "I've read the tomb robbery notes several times." ” Yan Sixian: "" Wu Duan: "There are also ghost blowing lights, I've seen several of them." ” Yan Sixian: "Roll" Yan Sixian discovered Wu Duan's new attribute: he was a fan of tomb robbery novels.

And then, and eggs.

Wu Duan asked, "Then have you seen it?"

"I've seen it, but I haven't understood it."

Wu Duan was surprised: "There are also books you can't read" "Some things depend on talent, and I don't think I'm enlightened in this area."

He continued to the topic: "If it is really a tomb robber, those people will definitely not be able to find it if they drill into the mountains and lay manpower." ” "Then what do you think?"

"Find someone who knows how to come, if we can find the tombs in the mountains, maybe we can intercept them at their destination." ” Wu Duan pondered for a moment and said: "Regarding tomb robbery, I know a few big cases, and there must be some knowledgeable criminals who have been caught, but those cases are not in our province, and if you want to find someone to come, you have to report it layer by layer, and the procedures are very troublesome, and when people come, the suspect has already run away." ” "Haven't there been any tomb robberies in this province?"

asked Yan Sixian.

"Yes, it's all petty fights, but I heard that there is an ancient tomb to dig up, and it is far from the level of profound metaphysical attainments required."

Yan Sixian nodded, stopped talking, and was fiddling with his phone all the way, not knowing who he was talking to
