Chapter 131 Midnight Terror in the Grove
Xiao Li felt uncomfortable in his stomach tonight and tossed and turned in bed.
Finally, I couldn't bear it anymore, so I carefully walked out of the staff quarters to go to the toilet.
When the family compound was first built, the public toilet was built on the side of the wall at the entrance of the compound.
There is a small forest next to the public toilet, which is usually pitch black.
Xiao Li's legs were numb from squatting in the toilet. He pinched his nose and plopped for more than ten minutes before finally ending the battle.
After using the toilet, I felt that I had a bad smell on my body, so I stood at the door of the public toilet to blow the cool air.
The flashlight was turned off and placed in his trouser pocket. Suddenly, he saw a bright light coming from the grove, flickering.
He felt strange and thought: At this time, is there still someone in the grove?
After a while of cool wind, my head became clear, and any sound in the quiet night would be infinitely amplified.
He pricked up his ears but heard nothing. After a while, the light in the grove went out.
After thinking about it, I decided to go to the grove to check the situation. I wonder if this factory has been visited by a gang of thieves during the New Year.
The grove in the factory was planted by the factory workers a long time ago. Decades later, the saplings have grown into towering trees, and it has become a very long grove.
The grove is a little closer to the office and is also the only way to the staff canteen, so there are often groups of three or four employees chatting here.
For the convenience of everyone, the factory placed wooden benches and stone tables and benches on both sides of the road in the grove. Xiao Li also knew that this grove was a place where many people got together.
He led the way with a flashlight in one hand, moving forward cautiously, occasionally shining the flashlight forward.
The second child saw a flashlight coming towards them in the dark and his eyes widened.
He pulled the two stunned people over and warned them in a low voice: "Shh, don't talk, someone is coming!"
The third brother's hands and feet trembled when he heard this: "It's over, it's over, we're going to be discovered."
The boss was also at a loss: "What should we do with this shovel? Where should we hide it?"
"Don't talk, let's hide under the table separately."
In a panic, the three men buried the shovel in the pit and used their hands and feet to step the soil into the pit.
Then he felt like his butt was on fire. He was so scared that he peed and shit, and crawled with his butt sticking up to hide under the stone table.
The eldest brother was a tall and fat man, occupying the bottom of the table by himself, while the third and second brothers, two thin guys, huddled together.
The three of them held their breath in fear, only hearing the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer.
Suddenly a flashlight shone towards them. The three of them were so scared that they fell face down on the ground, not daring to breathe, their hearts pounding with fear.
"Strange, I just heard a voice, why is there no one?"
Xiao Li looked around with a flashlight, muttering to himself.
The eldest brother was lying on his stomach with his butt sticking up and his head against the stone table. The big guy was really feeling suffocated in the small and cramped space.
I couldn't help but move my butt slightly, and my foot lightly stepped on a branch while moving.
“Squeak—”
The sound was very obvious in the extremely quiet night. Xiao Li, who was about to go back, looked back and saw the flashlight sweeping across the stone bench.
"Strange, who's there? Is anyone there?"
Xiao Li walked slowly towards the stone bench, his feet stepping on the leaves, which made a crunching sound.
The eldest brother, who was lying under the first stone table, felt his heart leaping into his throat as he saw someone about to walk in front of him.
“Meow—”
Suddenly there was a meow and a little black kitten jumped out from under the bench.
“It’s a cat.”
Xiao Li shone his flashlight on a mottled black catfish on the ground, waited for a while, turned around and left.
After everyone left and the flashlights went out, the grove returned to silence.
A few minutes later, the three of them crawled out from under the stone table with their butts sticking out, trembling.
"That really scared me."
The second and third brothers finally breathed a sigh of relief after they climbed out. The second brother saw that the eldest brother didn't say anything.
The third brother came over and said, "Why does it smell like urine? Did you pee your pants out of fright, big brother?"
"Go away, I'm freezing. I'm freezing to death in the middle of the night. When are we leaving?"
The boss relied on his thick skin, and even in the dark, his red face could not be seen, and he silently pulled his pants down.
He didn't know what was wrong with him when the man walked step by step towards the stone table where he was hiding.
I was sticking my butt out and my waist felt sore. I shook my waist carefully and a cold wind blew behind my butt.
At that time, I felt like my bladder was about to be held back, and after the person left, I finally couldn't help but release it.
Now the inside of my pants is wet and sticks to my butt, and I shiver when the cold wind blows.
The third brother complained: "That's right, second brother, should we continue digging? It's almost night!"
"Stop talking nonsense and come to work. We can go back sooner if we finish it sooner."
The second-in-command, Hu Ermao, was also troubled. He didn't expect the task assigned by Fu Zhengze to be so difficult to complete.
The three of them sighed and picked up the shovel hidden under the bench, resigned to their fate and continued digging the hole.
The third one among them was very strong, and he dug the ground with his arms swinging.
They dug the hole under the ninth tree towards the office.
The eldest brother spread his legs and dug carefully: "Who hid something down here? It's buried so deep."
The third brother's eyes lit up: "That's right, it's really hard to dig. Hey, could there be gold hidden in here too, second brother?"
"You haven't dug it out yet, how would I know? Besides, even if you did, would you dare to steal it?"
The second brother was tired of digging, so he threw the shovel aside, put his hands on his hips and watched the two men digging the hole.
He said this unhappily, secretly regretting why he took on this job.
Chunchun was in a thankless task, and at the same time, she became even more dissatisfied with Zhengze.
"Who else but us knows what's inside? Even if there's a little missing, it won't matter."
"Oh! I didn't realize, Little Third, you're full of bad intentions."
"Second brother, don't talk about me, don't you feel itchy?"
The third brother chuckled and looked at him in the moonlight.
Hu Ermao's heart was also filled with ripples, and his evil thoughts were instigated again.
"Brother, it seems we've dug something up. There's something blocking it from below."
"What! Don't move. Be careful."
Hu Ermao's thoughts were interrupted, and he squatted down and stared at the thing under the pit with wide eyes.
The eldest and the third brother dug about one meter deep. He jumped in to look and saw a piece of iron sheet exposed under the mud.
"Hurry up, hurry up, keep digging, and work harder."
The eldest and the third brother were excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood when they heard this, and started digging from the side with a grunt.
Soon the true appearance of the iron sheet was revealed, which was a square iron box.
Hu Ermao took the mud-covered iron box out of the pit and it felt heavy in his hands.
"I didn't expect that there really is something hidden under the ground. It's interesting."
"Second brother, we are really going to be rich now!"
The third brother relied on his sharp eyes to look at the box of treasures, and his mouth was almost drooling. It was really an eyesore to see that it was locked.
"Brother, there's a padlock on it."
"Keep your voice down, I can see you, brother, let's go quickly."
"Wait a minute, my eldest brother and I will go ahead and wait for you outside. Third brother, remember to fill the hole."
After saying that, Hu Ermao picked up the box and climbed up the pit, and the boss followed closely behind him, dragging two shovels.
"I always clean up the mess, really."
The third brother was very unhappy, so he shoveled the loose soil he had dug out with the shovel back into the pit perfunctorily. Finally, he simply stepped on it a few times and hurried away.
The temperature dropped suddenly in the middle of the night and strong winds blew, blowing up leaves and sand on the ground, making a mess.
