Tomb robbers are an open secret in the Mangshan generation. Even honest farmers who farm in the land can accidentally dig out some antiques from the field and work part-time tomb robbers, so there is no moral condemnation or other statement about tomb robbers in this generation.

The Li family is low-key and does not appear rich in normal times. Compared with other prominent tomb robbers, they are far from scale and property. However, because of their excellent skills and authentic work, they are famous. Many big buyers often come to visit.

However, in recent years, tomb robbery business has become increasingly difficult to do. On the one hand, the management of the above is becoming more and more strict, making it increasingly difficult to find good buyers.

On the other hand, there are more and more people robbing tombs, and the fewer tombs are dug. There are more monks and less porridge, and the competition is fierce. Sometimes several waves of people will look at a tomb at the same time. In the past, they would pay attention to a tomb first and then arrive. But now there is no such rule. Whoever has more people, whoever has the power is the one who has the most is.

In order to compete for territory, several battles occurred. At first, the gangs fought each other and bloodied. In the end, everyone called their relatives and friends, which gradually spread into a battle between several villages.

Under this kind of external struggle and internal friction, several famous tomb robbers nearby have begun to show signs of decline in recent years, and some people have even begun to organize teams to develop outside the pass.

But Li has never been involved in such disputes. No matter how fierce the others are, they never get involved, just stand by and watch.

Yes, with Li Zhenbei's skill, they don't need to compete with others. There are so many ancient tombs with "no roots and no traces" and "no traces", which is enough for them, young and old to dig for a few more lives.

Others can only envy and hate the Li family for their determination. There is no way to make people open their eyes.

Some people came to visit the door in a low voice for "cooperation", but were sent away politely by Li Zhenbei. Tomb robbing is too private, just like sleeping with your wife, it is not allowed to be involved in outsiders.

Of course, it’s not that no one has ever made any mistakes in their family, but they are afraid of their three sons who are like wolves and tigers. Moreover, Li Zhenbei has always been mysterious and mysterious. Apart from opening the eyes of the sky, they don’t know what strange skills they possess.

Such people look kind all day long, but they have a kind of aura that is not angry and powerful, and no one dares to mess with them.

If there were no accidents, their lives would be so prosperous and they would live safely.

But things are exceptions, or the way of heaven has its own cycle.

This year, the crackdown began.

The definition of severe crackdown is: to crack down on all criminal organizations and forms of crime, with the characteristics of being severe and fast!

The so-called severity is that touching a woman’s butt on the street is a crime of hooliganism, and a severe sentence is death-sentence.

During this special period, hooligans, gangsters, scoundrels, and thieves from all townships and villages... Whether they were committing crimes or those who had committed crimes, they were arrested and escorted on the streets to conduct moral demonstrations.

This is called parading.

The storm was about to come and the wind filled the building. Several famous tomb robbers near Mangshan ran away and went to avoid the limelight.

Li Zhenbei also heard the wind, but he didn't care. He thought that this movement was just like usual, with loud thunder and small raindrops, just a mere formality.

Besides, there is a tall one behind the sky when the sky falls. The third brothers of Shijiagou, the third brothers of Shijiagou, dug a few large tombs with a scattered son and grandson, aren't it okay?

We only sold a few antiques, and others asked them that they were inherited from the ancestral world! We picked them up in the fields, but they all said that they were the same as before.

It really doesn't work. Just scout my house. I don't have anything at home anyway. You can't catch my handle.

At worst, I can go to visit the street for two days, and everyone is calm for a while. Can so many tomb robbers in Mangshan be killed?

After thinking about it, Li Zhenbei felt that this matter would not be too serious and had not yet reached the point of running away in panic.

The local sentiment in Lizhenbei is quite serious. I have lived in Mangshan for decades. Do you still have to leave your hometown when you are old? That won’t happen! Isn’t it just to deal with today’s situation?

The sons also felt that there was no need to do anything small, and that was much more serious than them, and it would be fine - at worst, they would stop working during this period.

On that day, my grandfather sat around the stone platform in the yard to eat steamed buns, drink crucian carp soup, and discuss the boss’s marriage issue - Ge Laoqi’s second daughter finally agreed to the marriage!

The Ge family is a local "famous family". There have been several village chiefs in the family. Ge Laoqi's eldest son has a great future and is even expected to become the village chief without any precedent.

The boss’s marriage is about to be resolved. The man and the others are very happy and are discussing how to prepare for the marriage.

At this time, a dozen fully armed soldiers suddenly rushed in outside the gate. They came up and pushed the masters down and tied them up without saying a word, and all the crucian carp soup was turned over.

Tianfan, Tianqing and Tianfu were lying on the ground and struggling hard, cursing loudly, and three or four people couldn't hold back one of them. The scene was as chaotic as killing a pig.

Li Zhenbei was the first to be overturned to the ground. He did not struggle to resist and even said a word, but just observed the situation calmly.

Li Tianming did not have the backbone of three brothers. A soldier pressed him with one hand and squatted on the ground honestly, and he became wilted without even tying a rope.

Li Tianming squatted there, secretly glanced at his father, and clearly saw fear in his father's eyes.

"I don't know any of these people, they are all outsiders. They all carry guns and carry live ammunition. It seems that it is not as simple as ordinary parades." Li Zhenbei found that things were much more serious than he thought.

At first glance, I saw Li Tianming squatting there trembling, being held by a militia, like a little chicken, forming a clear contrast with the three brothers who were lying on the ground and struggling bravely.

Alas, Li Zhenbei sighed and said to his three sons, "Stop making trouble."

Li Zhenbei still had a high prestige in his three sons' hearts. As soon as he spoke, his angry roar stopped. Several soldiers hurriedly tied the ropes, and were already busy sweating.

"Let this child go. He is still young, it has nothing to do with this." Li Zhenbei looked at the middle-aged man in the lead. Although his tone was as calm as usual, his eyes were full of begging.

In Li Tianming's impression, he had never seen his father whisper so humble.

Li Tianming was only eighteen or nineteen years old at that time - but unlike his big and thick brothers, he was very thin and looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, like an undeveloped child.

The leader looked at the timid Li Tianming, waved his hand to let the militia behind him go - after all, he was a child.

The soldiers pulled the three tigers of Li from the ground and pushed them out. A Jiefang truck had already been parked at the door. It seemed that this group of people came for them.

"It's okay, let's go to the street for a few days, you can take a good look at your home." Li Zhenbei smiled calmly at Li Tianming, then nodded to the soldiers, bent down and was taken out.

My father always held his head up and his chest when walking. For the first time, Li Tianming saw his father bent so low.

The father and brothers were taken to the back of the truck, and the truck roared and drove away under the gaze of the villagers in groups of three or three.

Li Tianming ran away that night.

He was not as sure as his father. Although he had not learned his father's eyes to open his eyes, his intuition was extremely sensitive.

He didn't dare to stay at home, so he ran away overnight. Where did he go? It was dangerous everywhere. Those relatives, friends and neighbors who were kind to each other might say hello to him, and turn around and sell him.

Wandered in the wilderness for a day and a night, drinking some mountain spring water when you are thirsty, and grab some wild vegetables when you are hungry.

Thinking about it was not a solution to hide like this, he ended up running to Gejialing by a traitor.

The boss’s future wife is here, and her family should be safe, and the Ge family will not harm me.

Li Tianming thought to himself. When he came to propose marriage with his father a few days ago, the Ge family were all kind and intimate. He was extremely enthusiastic about the Li family. It seemed that the two families had already married.

My sister-in-law, who had not passed the door, also liked the elder brother very much. He could feel it from the eyes of her sister-in-law looking at her elder brother.

Before I could enter the courtyard, I heard crying and making a fuss inside.

Li Tianming listened to the wall for a while, and his heart immediately became cold.

It turned out that the second daughter was having a fuss with her eldest son. The eldest son was a person with a very sensitive sense of smell in the officialdom. He realized that this movement was extraordinary. In order to avoid affecting his career, he decisively destroyed his relatives for justice and reported his future in-laws!

The superiors also attached great importance to this matter. After being arrested in the village, they did not lock up the compound with other criminals, but were locked up alone.

Realizing that the situation was serious, the eldest son hurried back to convey this message to his family - to cut off all contacts with the Li family.

When the second daughter heard the eldest brother's internal communication, she burst into tears and made a fuss on the spot, "For the sake of being the village head, you sold all your future brother-in-law's family! You are worse than beasts, you are raised by a bitch!"

Although the second daughter of the Ge family looks delicate, she is quite fierce when she gets angry.

The eldest brother advised his sister kindly, "They are illegal and will be arrested sooner or later. I did this for your own good. Haven't you been through the door yet? It's better to find you a door in a few days..."

"Don't you, what kind of tomb robbers? Did you see them robbers? Did you see them selling them? Our father dug a copper pot from the ground a few days ago and sold it. Why don't you report it..."

The next sound was squeaking, maybe it was because my mouth was covered.

Others from the Ge family also gathered around to persuade them with kind words. They heard a few voices inside:

"Er girl, you want to open it. It's hard to find a toad with three legs. There are so many men with two legs."

"Yes, yes, just with our family's conditions, the person surnamed Li is really unable to get ahead. If this happens, it means that their family does not have such a blessing."

"Now that the whole family has gone in, what are you thinking about? Fortunately, I have been arrested now. If you are caught when you get married, then no matter how capable your brother is, our family will not be able to do anything about it."

"Hey, boss, are you sure the news? If the Li family is released later, I know you reported it, and I can't stand it. The sons of the old Li family... are not easy to mess with."

"Don't worry, four young and old people in the Li family were offered the money as soon as they entered. They are so famous in our family, who doesn't know them? Everyone says they are the leader and the evidence is conclusive! The verdict comes out the next day after the person was arrested!"

"What's the charge this time?"

"The excavation of cultural sites, destruction of private property, and resell cultural relics are extremely evil. The death penalty is executed directly!"

...

Li Tianming's face was ashes and suddenly collapsed on the ground.

"By the way, the above said that there is a young son in the Li family who ran away. Our family has been alert these days. If you see that kid, keep it steady first. If you can hand him over, you will make another contribution."

When Li Tianming heard this, he felt desperate, and a feeling of grief and anger arose in his heart. You want to arrest me, right? I will fulfill your wishes, you can hand me over.

I want to go in and fall into the trap now.

As soon as I stood up, I suddenly thought of the last look of my father looking at him and that strange smile.

"It's okay, let's go to the street for a few days, and you can take a good look at your house." The old man's words seemed to be still in his ears.

He suddenly understood the old man’s intention. Look at the home carefully! What’s the best at home? He asked me to live well and keep the blood of the Li family!

Okay, you want me to die, and I, Li Tianming, want to live well. Good fortune and misfortune are not my own. If God cannot fulfill his wishes, my fate is not my own!

Get up from the ground, Li Tianming left the Ge family in a daze.

The desire to survive in his heart was like a flame, burning more and more intensely, like a raging fire.

To be alive, I will do whatever it takes!
Chapter completed!
