Chapter 7 Robbery
Under Ye Bai's guidance, Wu puppy didn't find the squirrel, but happened to find a dark cave entrance.
"Is this a robbery cave?" Wu Xiaoxiao was shocked. Under Wu Guangyuan's influence, he also understood some of the methods of tomb robbery.
The diameter of the hole is about half a meter, which is just enough for about one person. There are traces of Luoyang shovels on both sides of the hole.
It's just that there is a lot of vegetation growing in the cave, and it looks like it has been around for a while.
"It seems that this Ming Dynasty tomb has been robbed. I'm afraid there won't be any harvest this time. I need to tell dad quickly."
Wu Xiaowu patted the old yellow dog and whispered a few words in the dog's ear, as if he wanted the old yellow dog to report the news.
The old yellow dog seemed to really understand. He raised his limbs and ran back quickly.
Seeing this scene, Ye Bai was secretly surprised, wondering if this dog had become a spirit.
"Brother Xiao Bai, this is a robbery cave. I guess the tomb under our feet has been robbed." Wu Xiaoxiao was afraid that Ye Bai didn't know, so he explained.
Ye Bai nodded, cooperated with the performance, and said, "Then we won't get anything?"
"It's hard to say. The robbers in the cave must have been there for a few years. I'm afraid they were tomb robbers from the Qing Dynasty. Although the ancients robbed the tombs, they always left some treasures behind. As long as one or two pieces are left, we won't
It's a waste of time." Wu Xiaowu seemed to be very familiar with the market and spoke eloquently.
Ye Bai pursed his lips and nodded with a heavy face: "I hope so."
Not long after, Old Huang Gou came over with Wu Guangyuan and Uncle Huzi.
"what happened?"
"Dad, Brother Xiaobai and I discovered a burglary cave!"
"Burning hole!"
Everyone looked shocked and looked at the dark entrance of the cave. This was indeed a robbery cave.
The existence of a robber hole means that the Ming Dynasty tomb has already been visited by tomb robbers, and the treasures inside have been taken away.
"Damn it, how could there be a robbery hole?"
"This is how to do?"
"Okay, stop arguing!" Wu Guangyuan shouted loudly.
Wu Guangyuan has been robbing tombs for so many years, and Wu Guangyuan has never seen any big storms. It is not uncommon to find a robber hole before the tomb is robbed.
"The existence of a robbery cave doesn't mean anything. Maybe these tomb robbers died in the tomb's mechanism, and even if they were stolen, one or two treasures left behind would be enough for us to open our business." Wu Guangyuan said slowly,
The thick voice quickly calmed people's hearts.
"Second brother, give me a torch, I'll go down and explore first."
Wu Xiaowu's second brother quickly found a dead branch nearby, wrapped it in cloth, poured oil on it, lit a torch, and handed it to Wu Guangyuan.
"You should also pay attention up there, and let me know if there is any movement." After instructing his people, Wu Guangyuan looked at Uncle Beard again: "Brother Beard, I'll leave this to you."
After everyone cleared the vegetation near the robbery cave, Wu Guangyuan, holding a torch and bending over, descended from the robbery cave.
Although Ye Bai had a map of the tomb, there were no traps marked on the map, and the cave had been abandoned for many years and might have become a habitat for some animals. He didn't know if there was any danger in the cave.
Wu Guangyuan went down alone with a torch, obviously a man of skill and daring.
There were sparse movements in the cave, and soon two hand-sized mountain rats came out. Not long after, Wu Guangyuan also poked his head out of the cave.
"It is indeed a robbery hole, but the passage in the middle is buried, and we don't know where it leads to the tomb. Since there is a ready-made robbery hole, we will dig downward according to this robbery hole."
After making up his mind, Wu Guangyuan ordered his men to start digging with Luoyang shovels and other tools.
The collapsed passage was not long, and with the skillful digging of the man, the hole was quickly dug out.
Wu Guangyuan and Uncle Huzi made a plan, and they only took some of their assistants to the tomb, while Ye Bai, Wu Xiaoxiao and others stayed on top.
Although he knew that there was a bronze treasure chest waiting to be opened in the tomb, Ye Bai was not too anxious. After Wu Guangyuan and Uncle Huzi confirmed that there was no danger in the tomb, he had many reasons to go and explore.
But it was a bit boring to wait up there, so Ye Bai chatted with Wu Xiaowu about home affairs.
"Besides your family of local masters, are there any other forces in Changsha?"
"Of course it's more than that. My dad said that the tomb robbers in Changsha are mixed, and our Wu family can barely make a living in Changsha. The treasures my dad gets every time he goes to the tomb are sold to the Huo family and the Bai family. These two families are
Those who are engaged in business, those who specialize in buying and selling artifacts, my father said that every time a big head is taken away from the grave, these people take away it." Wu Xiaoxiao said angrily.
Ye Bai nodded. At this time, the Nine Gates had not yet been established. Lord Zhang Dafo had not yet appeared in Changsha. The Nine Gates were still in their infancy and had not been integrated together.
The Wu family was just one of the many Tufuzi forces in Changsha, and had not yet gained the fame it would later achieve.
"Does your father know Chen Yulou from Xiling?" Ye Bai asked again.
"Brother Xiaobai, you mean Chen Kuishou from Xiling?" Wu Xiaowu's voice was a little louder, attracting the attention of everyone on the side.
As if he realized that his voice was too loud, he whispered in Ye Bai's ear: "But how come my father knows the leader of Xiling? If he knew him, we wouldn't be so miserable this time. Maybe we just arrived in Xiling."
There will be hundreds of heroes unloading the mountains on the boundary of the mountains to help us, and we won't be in such a mess like now." Wu Xiaowu complained with some dissatisfaction.
"And let me tell you, Xiling is very famous, but our forces in Changsha generally don't interact with them. We all have our own boundaries. This time my father came to Xiling's territory to hunt for treasures. It was actually a crime.
It’s taboo, if someone who is discharging the ridge discovers it, it will be unavoidable to use three swords and six holes.”
Ye Bai couldn't help but laugh and said: "Do you really want your father to be stabbed three times and six times?"
"When he doesn't hit me, of course I don't want to. If he hits me hard, huh! I'll go to Xiling and report secretly, and he won't be able to please him at that time!"
Looking at Wu Xiaoguo's serious expression, Ye Bai felt that his stomach hurt from laughing. Thinking of Wu Laogou's style in later generations, it was indeed something this kid could do.
"Oh, no, if Lao Xiong Ridge is the boundary of Xieling, the robbery cave under our feet could not have been dug by the people of Xieling. As long as they have dug the tomb, even the coffin will be moved away."
Wu Xiaowu slapped his head fiercely, as if he remembered something.
"Hey, no, I remember that the people who unloaded the mountains never bothered to use Luoyang shovels. This robbery hole has traces of Luoyang shovels. It should not have been dug by the people who unloaded the mountains."
"so far so good."
Seeing the change in Wu Xiaowu's expression, Ye Bai couldn't help but smile and said: "Don't worry, we will know when Uncle Wu and the others come up."
