President's Legendary Master
Chapter 172 Let's go up the mountain together
The little celestial master stood up all of a sudden: "Have you all been recruited?"
"Yes, the curse of the tomb." Boss Hou smiled wryly: "We call this the curse of the tomb. I heard that Tutankhamun cursed the British archaeologist Howard Carter in this way. Since then, we Call this the curse of the tomb."
"You guys are quite adoring foreigners." Dugu Haoyan said a little teasingly: "Then what was it called before?"
"Lan Xin." The little celestial master said: "It is also called ghost thread. It is said that it climbs up the arm and will eventually enter the heart, and the heart will rot. In fact, it should be called rotten heart. There is no antidote unless The curse is self-defeating, that is, letting the tomb owner calm down, which is generally difficult to do."
Little Tianshi's analysis was so clear that the other five people's eyes lit up when they heard it.
"So, do you know how to deal with it?" Boss Hou looked at the little celestial master, like a drunkard seeing old wine: "Is there a way? Tell me? How?"
The little celestial master pursed his lips and sat down slowly again: "It is possible, but can you guarantee the solution? In fact, the solution, didn't you hear it just now? Appease the owner of the tomb, and the curse will be over." It's solved easily, and the things are returned, isn't it all right?"
"Don't speak dark words in front of Ming people. If we could return it, we would have returned it long ago. How can we waste money here?" Boss Hou told the truth: "Let's be honest, the reason why we shipped the goods was to make things better. Make a big fuss and attract experts who can solve the problem."
"But how many people died because of your things?" Dugu Haoyan frowned: "How many people died in vain because of your things?"
"Then I don't care about it." Unexpectedly, Boss Hou told him that he was a bachelor: "That's the way those who can do our job, and those who can do theirs also rely on their eyesight. My own eyesight is not good. If you love petty gains, you must be greedy The consciousness of suffering a big loss."
With this kind of theory, Dugu Haoyan didn't know what to say to refute.
His business has always been aboveboard, and he pays all kinds of taxes every year. There is no shortage of them, and he has become a major taxpayer in the city.
Everything is very rational, but as a result, now that there is such a person who speaks such words, it makes people speechless.
"Well, how about you, if you want to solve this curse, and we want to return the property to its original owner, why not cooperate?" The little celestial master said: "You take us to the ancient tomb, and after we return the property to the original owner, we will solve it for you How about this threat?"
"Yes." Boss Hou immediately agreed.
The other four people didn't talk too much or objected, and they were very full after eating.
The little Tianshi and Dugu Haoyan also ate some, but because there were outsiders, the food was not very comfortable. However, with Boss Hou, we negotiated the terms of cooperation and agreed to meet at the entrance of this restaurant tomorrow morning. They're going back to bring something.
You must be well prepared, otherwise, if you go underground, you will easily be buried there.
After a time was agreed upon, Boss Hou and the others had eaten and drank enough, so they left. Dugu Haoyan ordered two new dishes to pack, and took the little Tianshi back to the car to eat, but he was not there.
There was no one left, only two people were left in the car, so he asked the little celestial master: "What do you mean by salted fish?" Dugu Haoyan knew that he had made a mistake just now.
But if he wants to figure out where he went wrong, he needs the little celestial master to explain it to him.
"Salted fish is a slang term for tomb robbers." The little celestial master did not laugh at him, but popularized this word for him, what does it mean in the slang of tomb robbers: "The salted fish mentioned by tomb robbers refers to uncorrupted fish." In order to preserve fresh fish, people often pickled the fish with salt to ensure that it would not spoil. In the [-]th century AD, people in the Liao Kingdom had to transport them back to their hometowns for burial no matter how far away they were. In order to preserve their corpses, they imitated pickling The method of salting fish is to remove the internal organs, make the corpse into a salted corpse, and transport it back to the hometown. Grave robbery is a shady business. It is called "eating soil rice" among the people, and "digging ancestral graves" in some places. It is not only against the law, but also against human ethics. Therefore , Tomb robbers have their own set of communication code words when they rob, that is, people's slang words. Black words, also called cryptic words, secret words, commonly known as "cuts". You didn't understand their cuts just now, they think you It’s an outsider. The most taboo thing in this business is being sniffed out by outsiders. That’s why they kept silent. If I hadn’t followed up, they wouldn’t necessarily tell the truth. Besides, people who are making a fuss about this thing are dead. Dare to tell the truth?"
"Oh, what is that spider?" He remembered what the little celestial master said.
"Spiders are cultural relic dealers who sit on the ground and sell stolen goods, also known as hesitation." The little celestial master said: "It's like that person named Xu Changsheng, he is a spider, and people who dare to accept such cultural relics can't do without two brushes. Unfortunately, His two brushes didn't work, and he died."
Engaging in such a job not only tests eyesight, but also tests courage and communication skills.
There are also relationships to maintain.
In the dark language, spiders are also insects that weave webs, and spider webs are everywhere.
"They know I'm not a person of the Tao?" Dugu Haoyan was unhappy: "I thought I acted pretty well."
"It doesn't matter, as long as I am a person of the Tao." The little celestial master was happy, holding a braised sheep's hoof and shaking his head: "Tomorrow we will go up the mountain."
On the second day, they really waited for five people.
How about going up the mountain? Their off-road RV can take the winding mountain road, but the other party drove an off-road jeep and pulled a lot of things. Dugu Haoyan took a few glances and told the little celestial master: "It's a cotton tent."
Cotton tents are the original tent canvas with cotton added, like cotton clothes. It is cold outside, especially in the mountains, so this kind of tent should be used to spend the night in the mountains.
In winter, if the tent is not warm, there is a danger of freezing to death.
Dugu Haoyan and his car can climb mountains without any problem.
There are roads on the mountain, and there are also forked mountain roads. Their cars are convenient, but it is impossible for them to live in the car.
First, everyone is not familiar with it.
The second is that everyone is very wary of each other.
Thirdly, it is inconvenient to live together.
So obviously, the two sides cooperate, but they are more defensive about each other.
Get out of the car and say hello. After getting in the car, Boss Hou drove the car with four partners to lead the way, while Dugu Haoyan drove behind.
Beishan is not too high, and there is a mountain road, because there are two natural villages in the mountain, so although the mountain road is steep, it is indeed a road.
Halfway up the mountain, they changed their way and went to a forked mountain road.
After driving for a long time, Dugu Haoyan said: "This is a deserted road."
"Should it be?" Little Tianshi looked out the car window, because the chassis of the off-road car was high, he didn't feel any shaking, but the car leading the way in front was bouncing around and watching the severe bumps.
It's winter here, and it's very bleak, with dead branches and leaves, residual snow, and some small animals in the mountains running around. He also saw rabbits.
There are also a lot of withered grass on the mountain roads, which shows that people don't walk often.
The wild grass all around is half the height of a person.
"The car in front stopped!" Dugu Haoyan said, "It's already afternoon."
The two of them lowered the car window, and Hou Wu came over: "Stay here temporarily for one night today, and start going to the tomb tomorrow. The tomb is in the yellow forest ahead."
The so-called "yellow forest" is actually a boxwood forest.
It is a wild forest, and now the Forestry Bureau is strictly watching it, and no one dares to log casually.
However, in the deep mountains, sometimes people will come to pick up some dead branches and use them as firewood.
There is no shortage of places to shelter from the wind. They found a mountain depression to face the sun and avoid the wind.
Before setting up the tent, we made a lot of stones to pave the ground, and then unloaded the straw curtains from the car to lay a layer, and then a layer of wooden boards. After the tent was erected, a layer of carpet was laid on the wooden boards, and then Five camp beds fell.
This is very simple. There is a natural gas stove in the middle, which can make a simple meal temporarily, and it can be heated at ordinary times. Two sets of electric heaters are set up around it.
Electricity is a diesel generator they brought.
Water and food are plentiful.
Little Tianshi and the others are even simpler, just find a place to park.
However, Dugu Haoyan still turned on the surveillance video outside the car, and the far-infrared alarm system was also activated.
"That's how to guard against them?" The little Tianshi was cooking the noodles, and he took out the spiced beef and cut them into slices, and put them in the noodles.
"Of course, these people don't seem to be good people." Dugu Haoyan said: "And we are so divided now, and we know that we don't trust each other, what will we do when we go to the grave?"
"According to the rules of going down to the tomb, the son is first and the father is last; the rule of going up is that the father is first and the son is last." The little celestial master thought for a while: "We are not father and son, we can only be the elders first, The younger ones are behind, we need to be careful when the time comes, because they dare not do anything to us until they solve their problems."
Because he can solve their curse.
Now it has reached the elbow, if it goes further up, it will go straight to the chest.
Once it passed the shoulder, the gods couldn't save him, so they had to rely on him.
Although there are only two of them, there are five of them, so don't be afraid.
"Okay, don't be afraid." Dugu Haoyan said so, but he made a lot of preparations, especially his gun. This time he brought a real pistol. Anyway, he has a gun license and a special gun. .
The little Tianshi didn't know that he had changed his pistol, so he ate noodles with him: "By the way, when we go down tomorrow, shall we wear it? Like in the emperor's tomb?"
"Put it on." Dugu Haoyan said: "They are not professional, so they don't have so many professional things. We are consultants for that, hehehe."
At this time, they were very fortunate that Professor Wang Yishui was still very reliable and gave them the title of consultant.
The equipment for going to the tomb was also given by Professor Wang Yishui.
Little Heavenly Master was overjoyed, after having dinner with Dugu Haoyan, look at those people, they just set up the tent, and their dinner is also very simple, cooking a big pot of instant noodles.
Inside was a bag of dehydrated vegetables and a few ham sausages.
The little Tianshi thought for a while, and gave them a piece of stewed beef: "How can I eat this at night?"
"Let's make do with it first, light a fire and eat meat at night. If you don't eat some meat, you won't be able to survive the night." Hou Wu was in charge of chopping the vegetables. He cut the little Tianshi's beef into slices, put them into the pot, and followed him Cook instant noodles together: "Come out to drink some wine at night to keep warm."
"Okay." The little celestial master didn't refuse, but it surprised the five people, who thought they would be rejected, after all, everyone was so wary of each other.
As a result, the family agreed.
They were also hungry, so they ate some instant noodles in a hurry, and started to set up a fire, but it couldn't be too big, otherwise if people saw the fire on the mountain, they wouldn't have someone go up the mountain to put out the fire?
And in winter, the air is dry and there are a lot of combustibles, so they picked up a lot of stones, after laying a layer, set up a pile of wood on the stones, and lit some dead branches of trees. The fire was cleaned up all around, and then I took some iron racks and set them up on top, and then put some barbecues that I had prepared earlier, and some other things that can be grilled and eaten, such as steamed buns, Mushroom skewers and more.
It looked like a camping picnic, Dugu Haoyan thought about it, and he brought a big plate of vegetables down: "You can't eat all the meat, there are vegetables here, and they are all ready-made skewers."
"That's fine!" Hou Boss was happy: "Come down and eat together."
"Yes, the curse of the tomb." Boss Hou smiled wryly: "We call this the curse of the tomb. I heard that Tutankhamun cursed the British archaeologist Howard Carter in this way. Since then, we Call this the curse of the tomb."
"You guys are quite adoring foreigners." Dugu Haoyan said a little teasingly: "Then what was it called before?"
"Lan Xin." The little celestial master said: "It is also called ghost thread. It is said that it climbs up the arm and will eventually enter the heart, and the heart will rot. In fact, it should be called rotten heart. There is no antidote unless The curse is self-defeating, that is, letting the tomb owner calm down, which is generally difficult to do."
