"Is this the only branch of the tomb-robbers? There are no others?" The old man didn't believe it. If they knew something happened here, would the other brothers not come and take the things away?
If your ancestors were tomb robbers, even if your descendants are not large, you can still have a few branches.
Old man Guan laughed dryly. He was just bragging last night. He would take as much as he could tonight and tomorrow night. He would not dare to come again.
He pointed to another grave and said, "There's a big thing in there, but the dead are on top and the stuff is down below, let's hurry up and get it."
The three of them swallowed their saliva together and said, "Brother, this is a lot, why don't you just forget it?"
The old man felt a little uncomfortable thinking about taking things from under a dead body, but he didn't want to. He didn't really plan to help old man Guan dig when he came. He just wanted to intimidate him. He wasn't a tomb robber, so there was no way he would do such a thing.
"Coward, if you didn't come, I would have dug that old guy out first and crushed him to ashes!" Old Man Guan's tone was filled with hatred.
"Don't be afraid, there are two coffins. The old ghost is pressing down on another coffin. Inside are all my ancestors' things. I must take them back." Old Man Guan was a little excited.
The old man felt a toothache. The two families had a deep hatred for each other. This old guy had been staring at this family like a madman for many years. He knew them thoroughly and there was no way he could persuade them.
"Say, don't open the coffin, or we won't help you."
Mancang and Wu Zhiqiu nodded. It was too exciting and they were afraid they were not worthy of it.
Old Man Guan: "Dig it out, take the things and leave, I will deal with it myself"
Old man... come on, if you are not afraid, just do it yourself.
A few people started digging again, and soon a four-wheeled vehicle came rumbling over. The second brother got off the vehicle with a pickaxe in his hand. This day was too exciting. Their family had changed from being a farmer to robbing tombs!
The third brother parked his car, with a large coffin on it. It was prepared for him by an old man in the village. The second brother had been in the village for a long time, and he knew which family had one and which old man was still in good health and would definitely not need it, so he bought it at a large price.
When Wu Zhiqiu saw his sons coming, he quickly pointed to several large iron boxes on the ground.
The second and third brothers nodded, opened the lid of the coffin, and the two brothers carried the iron box and put the coffin in it.
Then they quickly went to help. After the first coffin was dug out, Old Man Guan suppressed the hatred in his heart, and several people gritted their teeth and carried the coffin out, although there was another one underneath.
Several people were so tired that their hands and feet were weak. The second man was strong and pried open the lid of the coffin. Under a thick layer of oil paper were four iron boxes.
Several people moved the iron boxes to the coffin. The coffin could not be covered anymore. The second brother used the straw mat on the four-wheeled vehicle to cover the iron box, and tied the coffin lid to the coffin with a hemp rope. It looked very scary from a distance.
Old Man Guan sat on the ground and panted heavily. "It's getting late. You guys should leave quickly. I want to settle accounts with this old thief!"
The old man got up and quickly got on the four-wheeler. Wu Zhiqiu and Mancang also climbed up. There was no place to sit, so they squeezed into the coffin. It was better than looking at the corpse here.
"Please clean up these traces," the old man said in the car, and the four wheels rumbled away.
Old man Guan looked at the coffin and smiled grimly...
The coffin was pulled back to the mansion, and all the belongings were put in a dark room. The whole family was exhausted.
