After finishing our meal with a lot of worries, we went back to our room.
"He died just after we arrived. What should we do? We can't find any clues." Yin Ling'er pouted and sat on the stool in anger.
I told her not to worry, wait until dark, and then go investigate carefully!
Ge Weihan also felt that it was extremely strange. If Yan Daocheng's family was cursed to death, why did they not die in the past two years but only died in the past few days?
"Actually, have you noticed that the curses encountered by those antique dealers who dealt with jade are different from those encountered by Yan Daocheng's family. Those people were looking for the Yangtze River and committed suicide by jumping into the water. But Yan Daocheng's relatives had strange growths. The toad skin seemed to be deliberately torturing them without causing death..." I analyzed.
All in all, there was something eerie about the whole thing.
I suspect that there is a huge fog hanging over Sanxing Village and everyone involved. Only by cracking this fog can we know the truth behind it!
Seeing that Lao Jiang didn't speak, Yin Ling'er pushed him: "Uncle Lao Jiang, what are you thinking about? Are you so entranced?"
Lao Jiang frowned and almost ran out of cigarettes, which finally turned into a sigh: "Li Jinglan and I went out to explore how deep the water in this village is in the evening! Ling'er, you and Principal Ge stay here Cover."
Ge Weihan had no objection to this, but Yin Ling'er took the opportunity to blackmail Lao Jiang into five chicken drumsticks and asked him to go back and make up for them.
This foodie only thinks about chicken drumsticks.
That night, Lao Jiang and I planned to wait until the early morning to find Yan Daocheng's house.
Because people in the village are usually asleep at this time, the night will be our best disguise!
As it turned out, as soon as it got dark, Lao Jiang shushed us. It turned out that there was a strange whistle sound in the village, followed by a series of door openings and more and more footsteps.
We immediately climbed up to the rafters to observe, and a shocking scene appeared!
I saw one or two men in dark night clothes walking out of each house in Sanxing Village. These people were walking steadily, holding Luoyang shovels, shovels, or carrying ropes. Walking along the bluestone road.
Even Dana Lu and Zheng Sanpao were mixed in...
They did not have flashlights, but carried kerosene lamps in their hands and whistles in their mouths, walking in the dark night like nocturnal ghosts.
This is actually an army of tomb robbers with hundreds of people!
They kept in touch with each other by whistles as they walked.
He also watched Western Zhou Dynasty vigilantly, as if he was afraid of being discovered, so he acted very carefully.
I patted Old Ginger, ready to see what kind of medicine they were selling in the gourd...
Only to find that Lao Jiang was staring in another direction in trance.
In the night, a two-story building stood, with many black crows lined up on it, like a silent cemetery.
That's... Yan Daocheng's home!
I calmly tugged on Lao Jiang's clothes and signaled with my eyes whether he should go to Yan Daocheng's house first or continue to follow this group of tomb robbers.
"Look at the tomb robbers first!" Lao Jiang made his judgment almost without hesitation.
The empty two-story building is there and we can't escape, but we still don't know what these tomb robbers want to do.
So we tiptoed and followed this mighty army of tomb robbers out of Sanxing Village. Due to the large number of people there, we didn’t dare to follow too closely to avoid being discovered. We always kept a distance of about three to ten meters to the west. !
The wind is very strong tonight, and the crescent moon is hidden in the thick clouds.
This distance can give us enough cover. Even if the tomb robber bosses holding lanterns suddenly turn around from time to time along the way, we have cleverly avoided them...
It was a quiet night, and these tomb robbers were like a hundred ghosts walking at night, holding dim kerosene lamps and walking in the moonlight.
If I hadn't seen them coming out of each house with my own eyes, I would have mistakenly thought they were Yin soldiers crossing the border!
The cool wind around me made my back feel chilly, and I always had a bad feeling.
There was a strong salty smell in the air, and as the group of people moved around, there was also a faint earthy smell on their bodies.
We followed them out of the village, only to find that our destination was the stage during the day!
I saw the stage standing gloomily at the entrance of the village, with no lights on the stage and no one under the stage.
But at this moment, the mighty army of tomb robbers was actually divided into two. Among the hundred and ten people, there were fifty shrewd and fierce strong men, each holding a lamp and carrying an engineer shovel on his back, one after another. He continued to get into the curtain under the stage...
The remaining fifty or sixty people continued to move forward.
Through the light, I could clearly see that those who entered the back of the stage were all the best in the team, and the rest were just soldiers and generals.
It's just that the stage is only a small space, how can it accommodate so many people, and what are they doing in the stage at night?
I can’t think too much at this time, because another group of tomb robbers are still moving forward, so we can only continue to follow them to see where the second destination is?
The group of tomb robbers included Dana Lu and Zheng Sanpao, as well as old men or inexperienced novices.
They marched quickly along the farmland outside the village!
Unexpectedly, there were not many people in Sanxing Village, but the fields were quite large. After walking for half an hour, we still didn’t reach the end. Moreover, they encountered a strange ravine halfway. The group of people seemed to be afraid of this place, and they all stayed away from it.
Lao Jiang and I also followed suit to avoid capsizing in the gutter.
On the way, Lao Jiang whispered: "Did you see it? The fields under my feet have been plowed by them, and they ruined them so much that not a single crop grew. What a sin!"
I nodded: "And after reading it more than once, it seems they didn't find what they were looking for!"
In the end, the group of people finally stopped. In front of them was a small river five to six meters wide. It seemed that this was their destination.
Lao Jiang and I climbed up a tree to observe the movements of this group of people.
I found that they started to rummage through the tools in their bags, but it turned out that they were not grave robbers, but some ropes, hooks, and fishing nets. They just threw them into the river in the blinding night, and they didn't know how to do it.
"Could it be that they just want to catch some fish and shrimps to improve their food?" Looking at the inexplicable behavior of this group of people, I felt really strange.
Lao Jiang slapped the back of my head like I was looking at a fool, and said angrily: "How can anyone catch fish in the middle of the night? And who have you seen fishing with an iron claw hook as big as a palm?"
I looked at the group of people again and continued to observe their movements. I saw that they all put their kerosene lamps aside and turned their flashlights to shine on the river.
From time to time, there were one or two shouts, which seemed to make the companions take photos farther away!
Dozens of people came and went, casting nets and throwing hooks around the river. They were so busy that they were panting, and it was obvious that they were fishing for something.
I couldn't help but frown: "It's not fishing, what is it?"
At this time, Lao Jiang suddenly showed a mysterious smile. He quietly leaned into my ear and whispered: "If I said they were fishing for corpses, would you believe it?"
