Chapter 365: Wasteland Coins (1/2)



The village chief was a little skeptical at first, but when he saw the expressions of his two sons, he knew that what Lin Xi said was true.

His face suddenly changed and he hurriedly questioned his two sons loudly.

"What did you two pick up? You can't just pick up things from the ground! Why don't you return them immediately?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the two sons, who had been relatively stable at first, suddenly became emotional and excited again.

The eldest son glared at the village chief: "Shut up, you old bastard! If you keep making noise, I'll tear your mouth apart!"

The second son even raised his hand and prepared to push the village chief.

At this moment, the two of them no longer regarded the village chief as their father. They treated him like an enemy and completely disregarded the father-son relationship.

When the other members of the village chief's family saw the two men like this, before they could even react, they subconsciously stepped forward to start breaking up the fight.

The movements were so smooth that you could tell at a glance that it had been done countless times.

But this time, before they could make a move, Lin Xi took the lead and raised his hand and waved in the direction of the village chief's two sons.

The next second, they both stopped moving, and the anger in their bodies disappeared.

When the youngest son came to his senses, he looked at his outstretched hand with a bewildered look on his face and asked doubtfully, "What was I planning to do just now?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, then quickly looked at Lin Xi.

This is a true master, absolutely a true master!

The village chief was so excited that he almost cried.

"Master, thank you for your help!"

After expressing his gratitude to Lin Xi, he begged with a sad face.

"Master, could you please be kind enough to help us get rid of that thing..."

Combining what Lin Xi just said and the reactions of his two sons after hearing about that thing, the village chief could also figure it out.

My sons were definitely influenced by that "thing", which is why their temperaments and personalities have changed so much.

But judging by the sons' reactions when they heard about that thing, let alone asking them to find it and throw it away, I'm afraid the situation will get out of control again if I ask them a few more questions.

Once the two of them get their emotions out of control, they become completely irrational. If they hit each other, they are their own flesh and blood. If they don't hit each other, they will be beaten in return.

The only way is to pull them apart, lock them in a room alone and let them calm down. Only when they return to normal will I open the door and let them out.

But this is only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution.

Although they didn't know what Lin Xi did when she raised her hand just now, but she was able to stop her sons from being controlled by their emotions, so she could definitely deal with that thing!

Lin Xi came here just for this reason, so naturally he wouldn't refuse.

She looked at the village chief's two sons and asked them directly where they had hidden the things they had found.

The reason why Lin Xi was so sure that the two sons of the village chief had picked up something, rather than going to some place with strong evil spirits, was simply because the faces of these two people showed that they had recently made an unexpected gain and made a fortune.

But this "wealth" is not some ordinary wealth, but will bring them disaster.

It will not only affect themselves, but also their relatives and neighbors.

But unfortunately, that thing didn't seem to be in the village chief's house, or even in the village.

Lin Xi guessed that the thing must have been hidden by the village chief's two sons.

Only they know where it is hidden.

But in response to Lin Xi's question, the two brothers looked at each other and started to play dumb.

"What do you mean by picking up something? I don't know what you are talking about!"

"That's right, stop talking nonsense here! If you keep talking nonsense, I'll kick you out!"

Before the two brothers could finish their words, two mantra talismans flew towards them.

The next second, the eyes of the two people instantly became "clear".

Lin Xi repeated the question just now.

This time, the two of them did not play dumb and honestly told the location where the thing was stored.

As soon as the address came out, the expressions of the village chief and others changed drastically!

They actually hid the things next to their ancestor's grave!

Most of the graves of the ancestors of the village chief's family are around the village, except for the grave of the great ancestor, which was planted in another mountain some distance away from the village because the land had not been divided at that time.

They only go up there to worship their ancestors during the Qingming Festival. Normally, no one goes up the mountain and it is very desolate.

Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is how these two unfilial descendants dared to bring anything to their ancestor’s grave!

Lin Xi was a little confused when he heard this.

She thought the two brothers would find a safer and more secluded place and carefully hide the thing.

I didn't expect it to be hidden in the mountains, next to my ancestor's grave?

She asked me, "So what's the content of the things you found? Where did you find them?"

The two brothers had to tell the truth under the mantra.

"What we found was a bunch of ancient coins. We found it while digging the road..."

More than a week ago, there was a problem with a section of road in the village.

That section of road was not damaged, but the wasteland beside the road collapsed for no reason.

The village chief was worried that the collapsed area would affect the road and thus affect the travel and safety of the villagers, so he asked his two sons to go and check the situation together.

There was no big problem with the collapsed wasteland. It was just discovered that someone had dug a hole under the ground before. Although it was filled, it was not filled too full.

Over time, the gap in the hole became larger and larger, and the pressure from above became greater and greater, which caused the land to collapse.

They did have the habit of digging cellars to store grain in the past, but they stopped doing so in recent years, so the village chief didn't find it strange.

Seeing that the collapsed area was not large and could be dealt with by a few people in an hour or two, he handed the project over to his two sons and asked them to find a few young people in the village to deal with it together.

Everyone uses the roads in the village, so naturally everyone needs to contribute to their repair and maintenance.

Young people are strong, so tasks like digging and filling the soil can be left to them.

The two sons of the village chief quickly went to find a few young people who had a good relationship with them. They all came with hoes and shovels to dig up the wasteland.

To fill the collapsed area, you need to dig soil nearby.

When a group of people were digging soil next to a wasteland, they didn't expect that the village chief's eldest son dug up something else while digging.

As the eldest son dug with the hoe, he suddenly felt something was wrong with the touch, and he also heard the sound of the hoe hitting something.
