Shen Anning returned to the kang, but couldn't fall asleep again.
At half past five in the morning, Shen Anning got up carefully when she heard the sound of An Yu fetching water in the yard.
"An Yu, don't go up the mountain today. Take the children in the village to practice boxing at the gate of the yard. I have something to do for you later."
After hearing this, Shen Anyu didn’t doubt it at all, “Okay, sister, then we will exercise at the door today, the same.”
now.
The two gangs hiding in the mountains miraculously avoided each other and set up camp in different places, which was quite "peaceful".
Li Haotian learned the news that people had arrived on the mountain after he got off work at noon. After lunch, he was thinking about how to find an excuse to go up the mountain and meet up with the people who had arrived.
Although it is convenient to act at night, they live with the educated youth, and they will inevitably be discovered if they get up at night. Therefore, the safest way is to bring people there in the afternoon, so that their identities will not be exposed and they can complete the task.
In the afternoon, when it was time to go to work, Li Haotian asked for leave from the team leader, saying he was not feeling well. Yang Zhengcheng then accompanied him to the "hospital."
The two men left the village and went around to the mountain. They were immediately discovered by both groups of people.
The bearded man hid in the dark with his men, watching a group of people gather together. Judging from their actions, they were martial artists. There were even a few moments when he saw the leader of the crowd looking in their direction several times.
For some reason, he smelled the scent of his own kind.
Li Haotian and Yang Zhengcheng greeted the people who came to meet them, "Brother Wu, Third Brother."
"Well, now that the village is settled, let's hurry up and leave. Let's make a quick decision."
A group of people set out from the back mountain, circled around and around, and finally arrived at the cliff that day. Li Haotian looked at the corpses below the cliff and found that all of them were gone. This should have been done by the large animals and wolves on the mountain.
Without saying much, they went down in perfect harmony.
Qin Wu, also the leader of this gang, is a descendant of the Huzitou who lived in the Heishan County area. After the anti-bandit campaign began, his father cooperated with the soldiers who felled the trees to hide a large amount of treasure near the tomb, thinking that no one could come to this place. Now the situation in Beijing is unclear, and they need to take the money abroad or to Taiwan.
After a group of people did some work, they threw away their pickaxes and engineer shovels in frustration.
"Mad, what's going on?"
Li Haotian stood at the side and was a little afraid to speak. He remembered that when the explosion happened that day, he might have triggered a mechanism. After all, this was a thousand-year-old tomb...
Qin Wu looked at the low stone door in front of him that couldn't be opened no matter what. They didn't have any explosives, but it would be a waste of time.
Just when they were at a loss, there was movement on the cliff, and the people below quickly picked up their weapons and stood in dispersed positions.
"Brothers, don't be impulsive. We are here to discuss business with you. Please give us a chance to finish our words."
Seeing that the people below had no intention of taking action, the bearded man led his brothers down the cliff quickly along the rope.
The bearded man walked directly in front of Qin Wu and explained his purpose. "Hello, brother. I know why you're here. To be honest, a group of my brothers were killed by your educated youth."
"But I'm not here for revenge today. Some of my men are capable of going down to the tomb. Why don't we work together and split the things equally when the time comes? This matter will be over and no one will suffer any loss. What do you think?"
Qin Wu looked at the group of people in front of him, including the one with a rifle, and figured that if the two gangs fought, they might not get anything good.
"Brother, let's be fair." Qin Wu thought to himself that he had the final say on how to divide the shares.
Not all people from both sides went in. Two people were left on each side. Li Haotian and Yang Zhengcheng were still educated youth in the village and could not be exposed, so the two of them stayed outside.
The people led by the bearded man were indeed quite capable. The door that Qin Wu and his men couldn't open was quickly opened with the help of this group of people.
Fearing that there was poisonous gas inside, the two parties waited for a while before going in. Surprisingly, the stone door that was originally open closed automatically half an hour after someone entered.
"What's going on, Brother Li, what should we do?" Yang Zhengcheng watched the stone door fall. It was so fast that he had no time to react and could only watch.
Li Haotian was also a little confused and looked at the two people beside him.
"We don't know what happened, otherwise the boss wouldn't have left us outside."
"But according to the previous experience, the door should be able to be opened from the inside. Now we can only wait."
At night, it was almost dark and there was no movement inside. The two brothers with big beards were already used to it. Generally, it was possible to stay in there for a few days in this situation. Anyway, everyone brought dry food with them, so nothing serious would happen.
Li Haotian asked Yang Zhengcheng to return to the village and get a letter of introduction from the village chief, saying that he was seriously ill and needed to recuperate in the hospital for a few days.
He didn't trust the people on the bearded man's side, so the safest thing was to have people from both sides present.
What they outside didn't know was that more than half of the people inside had been killed or injured.
Three days. Li Haotian and the other three waited outside for three full days, but there was still no movement inside.
Seeing that the weather was getting worse and worse, it was very cold after staying in the mountains for a few nights. Several people could not bear it anymore. The two younger brothers with the beard even thought about escaping, but they were afraid that the people inside would come out, so they were a little hesitant.
Li Haotian found an opportunity to go to the town and make a phone call. The situation in Beijing was already in dire straits. When they learned that they had not obtained anything here, they were ready to give up this wealth and leave.
Things have reached a point where delay is of the essence.
They went back and called Yang Zhengcheng, and the two of them discussed it and decided to wait for the last two days. If the people inside still didn't come out, then there was probably no hope, and they had to think carefully about their future.
