Chapter 507: Grab your weapons and follow me up the mountain
Night falls, bringing with it a gentle cold wind.
Zhao Dashan, who had been hiding in the mountains for half the night, couldn't help but shiver.
Winter is coming soon, and we can't make a fire to get rid of the cold, so the cat is very cold in the mountains.
but……
I took a look at the tall new graves piled up at the foot of the mountain and felt the breeze, it was worth it.
"Village chief, is that almost enough?" Zhao Dashan finally couldn't stand the cold anymore and asked in a low voice.
The sooner you start, the sooner you finish.
If you hurry, you can get home and have a good sleep before dawn.
Village Chief Zhao glanced at the sky. The moon was above the willow branches, and it was almost time.
Then he nodded and lowered his voice, “Go down.
I'm going to make a quick decision this time. I don't want anyone to suspect me, so I took the valuables and filled up the coffin and grave with soil. Do you understand?"
Village chief Zhao warned them seriously.
It was because they didn't backfill several times that they were almost exposed several times.
And for a long time after that, whenever someone in the family died and was buried, someone would be arranged to guard the grave, which caused them to not dare to start work for a long time.
Zhao Dashan nodded and said, "Don't worry, Village Chief. We will restore it exactly as it was this time, and no one will be able to see any problems."
When Village Chief Zhao saw them nod, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then went down the mountain with another villager named Zhao Ping to stand guard.
Who knows if someone will climb up the mountain in the middle of the night without sleeping, so we still need to keep watch.
After Zhao Dashan saw him walk away, he shook his head in disgust:
“The older the village chief gets, the more he fears things.
Who would come in the middle of the night in the desolate mountains?
And if someone comes, there will definitely be a fire, and you can see it at a glance."
Having said this, Zhao Dashan looked at everyone:
"Let's go, work, and make money!"
As he spoke, he picked up the Luoyang shovel beside him and walked excitedly towards the new grave below.
The tomb is so beautiful, with so many wreaths and paper people. It seems that the owner of this tomb is a rich man, and they are going to get rich tonight.
Zhao Dashan was excited and dug the grave with a shovel.
"dig!"
…
Xu Qing, who was hiding in the dark, saw all of this.
Then he turned around and walked quickly down the mountain. While going down the mountain, he naturally knocked out the two people who were on guard, Village Chief Zhao.
Then he headed straight for the village at the foot of the mountain.
Knowing that Village Chief Zhao and his men were going to rob a tomb, Xu Qing had already gone down the mountain to find out where the tomb's owner was.
So, after coming down the mountain, he went straight to the other person's home without wasting any time.
I have to say, this family is really rich.
After all, large houses with three entrances and three exits are not uncommon in Mo City, so it can be seen that they are a wealthy family.
When Xu Qing arrived, the other side's gate was still vaguely white.
He turned over and walked in swiftly, standing in the yard. He raised his voice and shouted directly:
"Hurry up and catch the tomb robbers. If you don't get up now, your father's tomb will be dug up and the burial objects inside will be taken away.
If you want to catch tomb robbers, lead your men up the mountain secretly and don't light a fire."
After Xu Qing finished yelling, when someone from the other side came out, he turned around and jumped directly over the wall and disappeared into the night.
Next, he just needs to watch the show.
The family's surname is Lu.
The dead person was the old man of their Lu family.
Xu Qing's words woke everyone in the Lu family up.
Everyone who rushed out of the house looked at each other in bewilderment. They had just buried the body in the morning, and someone came to rob the tomb in the evening?
The youngest of the Lu family frowned, "Is this guy joking with us? Who has the guts to rob a tomb?"
"Whether it's a joke or not, we must go up the mountain and take a look." The Lu family boss said sternly:
"If anyone dares to dig up our father's grave, I will break their legs.
Come on, men of the Lu family, grab your weapons and follow me up the mountain."
After saying that, he took the lead and picked up a wooden stick, walking towards the gate aggressively.
He couldn't help but believe it, because in recent years, news had been coming from various places that people were robbing new graves, and even arrogantly dug up the graves, stole valuables, and left the bodies exposed in the wilderness to be eaten by wild beasts.
He can't afford the gamble!
He didn't want to be an unfilial son.
Seeing this, the other members of the Lu family also picked up sticks and followed.
It has to be said that the Lu family is very prosperous, with more than twenty male members, big and small.
They did not make any noise or light any torches, but moved quickly up the mountain with anger in their hearts.
And the moonlight tonight is particularly enchanting.
Silver light scattered across the earth, and movement was faintly visible.
Not long after they started walking, the sharp-eyed youngest son of the Lu family saw a figure swaying on the mountain not far away, and his eyes instantly turned red with anger.
There really are tomb robbers.
"Brother, these tomb robbers are really digging up our father's grave." The youngest of the Lu family's eyes were red. "What should we do now?"
The eldest of the Lu family had already gnashed his teeth, his face gloomy:
"Sneak up from both sides and surround them. Don't let any of them go. If they dare to disturb our father's peaceful sleep, beat them to death."
"good!"
…
At this time, Zhao Dashan and others were enthusiastically waving shovels and digging the soil.
"Anzi, this family buried the coffin really deep. We've been digging for so long, but we haven't found the coffin yet. I'm almost dying of exhaustion." Zhao Dashan complained.
An Zi didn't look at him and continued digging quickly. "They were afraid of being robbed, so they buried it deeper. Come to think of it, isn't this all your fault?
If you hadn't dragged the body up a year ago and didn't bury it, how would anyone have found it?"
Speaking of this, Anzi couldn't help but glare at him.
Zhao Dashan smiled unnaturally, "It's been a long time, and you still remember what you did. Don't worry, I will never do such a thing again."
Anzi glanced at him and said nothing more.
A dog will always eat shit. If you believe what he says, you might as well believe the dog.
He said in a muffled voice, "Hurry up and stop talking nonsense."
Zhao Dashan didn't dare to say anything. If An Zi hadn't pleaded for him, he would have been expelled long ago, so he started digging very hard.
Boom!
The Luoyang shovel hit the coffin, making a crisp sound.
Zhao Dashan was delighted, "I found it, hurry up!"
As he said this, he swung the Luoyang shovel in his hand faster.
And at this moment.
"Having fun digging?"
A sinister voice came from the darkness.
"Of course, we're going to get rich soon, who wouldn't be happy!" Zhao Dashan continued naturally.
But the next second he realized something was wrong.
An Zi and others also reacted at this time.
Zhao Dashan and others were shocked when they looked up and saw that they were surrounded.
How did they get up the mountain?
Where is the village chief who is on guard?
When Zhao Dashan and others found out that the matter was exposed, they immediately tried to climb out of the grave and escape without caring about anything else.
When the Lu family boss saw the coffin exposed in the moonlight, his eyes turned red and he roared:
"Beat me, beat me hard."
After saying that, he raised the wooden stick in his hand and rushed forward fiercely, then hit him hard with the stick.
The youngest son of the Lu family and others could no longer hold back. When they saw the eldest son of the Lu family taking action, they immediately followed and started hitting him with their hands.
Late at night, screams broke the silence of the night.
…
It's dawn.
Li Xianlie did not sleep all night and kept his eyes open until dawn.
He clenched his hands immediately.
He had people go door to door last night to inquire. In this village, apart from those who left home with instructions, there were eight people in total who had not returned, including Village Chief Zhao.
Haha, not back?
Absconded with the money?
Li Xianlie stood up with gloomy eyes. The monk can escape, but the temple cannot, unless they don't care about the life and death of their families.
Li Xianlie walked out of the tent with gloomy eyes.
"Boss Li." Constable Gao stepped forward, "Except for those eight people, everyone else has an alibi.
Now it is estimated that these people may have run away with your money, and it may be difficult to recover them."
Seeing Constable Gao's embarrassed look, Li Xianlie sneered:
“What’s so difficult?
If all their families were taken to jail, I wouldn't believe they would just watch their families suffer and not turn themselves in."
Constable Gao was stunned, "Boss Li, this is not too late, okay?
Their families were unaware of the incident and are innocent. Furthermore, they didn't leave any money behind, so I'm afraid these people won't care about them."
"Detective Gao, are you sympathizing with them?" Li Xianlie sneered. "Do you want me to ask your superiors to investigate this case?"
Constable Gao was startled. He shook his head and lowered his head, "Boss Li, I know what to do."
After saying that, he turned around and walked behind him without saying anything, and at the same time he called his men away.
Li Xianlie had a sinister look on his face. Humph, if you don’t say harsh words, you don’t know how to do things.
…
Soon, there were many more wailing sounds in the early morning sky of Zhaojia Village.
"Why are you arresting us? What does it have to do with us? We didn't do anything. Why are you arresting us?"
"If you let us go, you officials can arrest people at will?"
"Stop pushing, let's go. You bastards, you're arresting people indiscriminately. I curse you to give birth to sons without an assholes."
