Chapter 657: Cold Wind



Lu Yong was choked by Lu Zhiye's words, staggered and almost sat on the ground.

He curled his lips and used the shovel in his hand to clear away the weeds and dead branches around him.

He whispered, "There's no sign of the weeds being trampled. It looks like no one comes to the cave.

Could it be an abandoned cave? Is it necessary for us to go through all the trouble to open it?"

Lu Zhiye looked around and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, but he firmly believed that there must be unknown secrets in this cave.

It is precisely because it is covered up so well that people become suspicious.

Lu Yong took great effort to move the waste rocks away from the entrance of the cave.

"Hoo, hoo, hoo... Oh my god, I'm so tired."

When the cave entrance was completely opened, Lu Yong sat on the ground panting tiredly, with beads of sweat on his forehead.

Lu Zhiye took out a lighter from his pocket, lit it and threw it in.

I found that the light was not extinguished and there was even wind blowing.

Then I realized that this was a living cave.

This side is blocked, there must be an exit on the other side.

Lu Zhiye bent his waist and walked in quickly.

Lu Yong quickly got up from the ground and shouted, "Wait for me."

He followed Lu Zhiye closely. It was much cooler inside the cave than outside.

There was even a chilly feeling. A gust of cold wind blew over, and Lu Yong subconsciously reached out to rub the goose bumps on his arms.

He sneezed several times in a row.

"Why is this cave so eerie in broad daylight? My heart is beating like a drum."

Suddenly, Lu Zhiye stopped walking, and Lu Yong was caught off guard and bumped into him.

They walked about ten steps, and suddenly the view was clear. Looking up, they saw six tablets placed on a stone platform not far away...

"Oh my god!"

Lu Yong exclaimed subconsciously, and when he realized where this place was, he quickly covered his mouth.

Lu Zhiye walked forward and took a closer look. These should be the tablets of the old lady’s husband, three sons, and one grandson.

As for the last black wooden plaque that had not yet had words engraved on it, it should be left for her.

"Brother Ye, this is not a cave, it's clearly a cemetery!

Let's go, I feel so scared."

Lu Zhiye ignored him and turned to look at the big box not far away.

He found a stone of appropriate size and smashed it at the large rusty iron lock.

It took several attempts to break it open. When he opened it, he saw a lot of bills and money inside.

Some of the bills above have expired, and some have turned yellow and rotted.

The scattered money was wrinkled and smelled musty.

There was a small box inside, and Lu Zhiye opened it and took a look.

Several medicine bottles appeared before my eyes.

Lu Yong also came over, his eyes widened: "Is this the medicine we are looking for?"

Lu Zhiye shook his head: "I'm not sure about this. Take these back first and show them to Director Gong later.

He should have some way to find out."

"Then this money......"

Lu Yong asked hesitantly.

Lu Zhiye looked at Lu Yong steadily and found that there was no greed in his eyes.

I feel very relieved that Lu Yong always maintains his original intention no matter what the circumstances, which is very rare.

"Take all this money, and pick out the tickets and see which ones are still usable."

"I won't take it, I won't take it. Who would dare to take money from a dead person?"

Lu Yong waved his hands repeatedly, his face full of fear. The miserable conditions of those people kept appearing in his mind from time to time.

He felt that if he took the money, he might be killed by rocks before he even left the cave...

This thing is so weird and scary.

Lu Zhiye sighed helplessly. He raised his voice and said loudly, "This old lady plotted against your wife. This money should be compensation for your wife."

As soon as he finished speaking, a cold wind blew in the cave again.

Lu Yong screamed "Ah Woo" and used his hands and feet to grab Lu Zhiye's body.

He kept shouting, "I don't want it, I don't want it, I won't do it even if you kill me..."

There was no other way, Lu Zhiye could only put the money into his pocket and prepare to hand it over to Old Lady Fang along with the things in the yard.

It won’t be too late to give it to Qiao Qianqian and the others after Old Lady Fang finishes finishing all these things.

“Get off me first…!!!”

Lu Yong shook his head like a rattle: "No, I'm afraid..."

Lu Zhiye's face was shaking constantly, and he swore, which was rare: "You weigh 150 to 160 kilograms, and you're hanging on me. I can't move."

Lu Yong had no choice but to climb down silently, but his hand was still tightly holding Lu Zhiye's arm.

Lu Zhiye turned his head and looked in another direction: "You go back along the original route and seal the cave in its original state. I'll go over here and take a look."

"I'm blocking you, how are you going to get out?"

“There must be an exit here, otherwise how did the old lady get in?

It's hard for you to handle the big rock at the door, let alone an old lady in her sixties or seventies?"

Lu Yong thought so too, suppressed the fear in his heart, and walked towards the cave entrance, looking back every few steps.

He accidentally made eye contact with a row of spirit tablets and was so scared that he ran away.

Lu Zhiye walked to the other side following the direction of the wind.

The cave here was very small. Lu Zhiye took out a flashlight from the space and shone it around.

After walking for about five minutes, they finally saw the light, and Lu Zhiye kicked a small jar under his feet.

He quickly squatted down, picked up the flashlight and shone it over there.

In the small corner, there are many small jars scattered around, some of which are filled with mud, and some have been broken into tiles.

The thing under Lu Zhiye's feet rolled back and forth, making a ding-ling sound.

I picked it up and poured it out, only to find a key and a map drawn on cowhide inside.

There were also a few pieces of kraft paper, and the words on them were already a little unclear.

Lu Zhiye stuffed the things together with the jar into the space.

He walked out quickly, and when he reached the exit, he found that the hole was actually where the pheasants and rabbits were nesting.

No wonder, no wonder the old lady wanted to make a deal with them.

I originally thought it was because I was getting older and had developed feelings for these little things.

Only then did Lu Zhiye realize that she was afraid that they would discover this passage.

With a long sigh, Lu Zhiye quickly filled the hole and walked towards Lu Yong.
