Tomb

After Gu Mu sent his elder brother and sister-in-law to the plane, he drove back in his car. He had been helping his elder brother with his marriage for more than a month after returning from abroad. He didn't really let go until he sent the newlywed couple on their honeymoon. tone.

His elder brother is 10 years old and has been working in the army. He is 30 years old this year and has finally made up his mind to get married. At least this is not the result of anything that has nothing to do with interests. The sister-in-law is very nice, and Gu Mu is very happy about it.

When he arrived at the intersection and was about to turn the steering wheel to go home, he felt his phone vibrate. He took it out and took a look. It was a text message. After reading the contents, Gu Mu smiled and turned the car to a coffee shop he used to frequent.

There are not many people inside, and I haven’t come back for a few years. The place is quite different from before, and the waiters are not the same as before. I found someone who asked him out at the old location. Gu Mu knocked on the table, and the other party raised his head slightly. Standing up in surprise, "You have changed so much, I can hardly recognize you."

Gu Mu sat down with a smile, "It's the same for you, I was only fifteen when I went abroad, and I'm twenty now."

"It's true." Liang Bin looked him up and down again, "It's really changed too much. I didn't dare to admit it just now. If it wasn't for my mother saying you were back at your brother's wedding, I would I don’t even know about this.” He pointed at him dissatisfied, “You are not enough friends, thanks to the fact that we are still buddies who grew up together.”

"I've been too busy these days. My brother's marriage has turned our house upside down. I really don't have time." Gu Mu explained. The waiter brought two cups of coffee, and he took two sips unhurriedly. "Isn't it coming here as soon as I have time?"

Liang Bin hummed twice to express his dissatisfaction, "If I hadn't asked you out and wanted to wait for your news, I don't know when it will be. By the way, how long will I stay this time?"

Gu Mu shook his head, "I won't go back, this time it's settled."

After hearing this, Liang Bin was taken aback. When Gu Mu went abroad, he said that the education abroad was better than domestic ones, and it was better to go abroad to spend money. In fact, his uncle's family had no children, and his family wanted to Although the matter was brought up by accident by his mother, but seeing that Gu Mu had left without crying for five years, he thought that he would really not be able to come back, but looking at him now, it doesn't seem to be the case.

Both of them grew up in the army compound, and their fathers knew each other, so they got close. They were the ones who pissed and made mud together since they were young, so anyone who had something to do could hear the news.

"Really not leaving?"

"Well, I really don't want to go." Gu Mu smiled. Liang Bin is not a person who hides and lives. You can tell what he is thinking just by looking at his eyes, so he said, "My aunt is pregnant. Mom misses me again, so I'll just come back."

Only then did Liang Bin fully understand what he said, but after he understood, he cursed secretly in his heart, thinking what was the matter, if he had his own child, he would not want it anymore, and treat others as things.

He comforted Gu Mu and said, "It's pretty good in China. Everyone speaks Chinese, and it's comfortable to listen to. Now we can go to work together."

Gu Mu put down his coffee cup, looked at Liang Bin, "Do you need me?"

Liang Bin felt a little embarrassed when he was so straightforward, so he simply took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Gu Mu, "Come to visit the grave with me, are you interested?"

Unfold the crumpled paper, it is a photocopy, black and white, not very clear, but probably not bad, it is an internal drawing of a tomb, in terms of scale, it is quite large, and Liang Bin said it was a tomb sweeper , just smiled, "It's Daidou, right?"

Liang Bin shook his head, "No, this time it's really a tomb-sweeping, but we just went inside to 'sweep'." Seeing Gu Mu looking at him, he said, "That's the thing, last week I found it alone. The person who came to me was the one who gave me the blueprint, and said he wanted to find someone to clean his family’s ancestral grave. He happened to know a friend of mine and knew that I had done this before, so he wanted me to find some acquaintances to help. "

"Going into your ancestral grave and looking for outsiders? It's stealing."

Liang Bin touched his chin indifferently, "That's because he guarded himself and stole it himself, and it has nothing to do with us. We just take our part of the money and don't care about the rest."

Gu Mu looked at the blueprint again. Judging from the blueprint, the size of the tomb is like that of the Warring States period. It's really from the Warring States period, can it be kept until now?

His grandfather was also in that line of work when he was young, and later his father wanted to be a soldier, so he just let it go, fearing that the army would find out something, but the old man still couldn't let it go, and wanted to find someone to talk to, but the family had a series of incidents The two gentlemen who were soldiers, it happened that since Gu Mu became interested in this, his grandfather taught him a lot, so it was not unreasonable for Liang Bin to come to him today.

"How about it, is it okay?" Liang Bin asked anxiously seeing that he had been thinking for so long.

Gu Mu thinks that there is still more than a month before the start of school. Anyway, he is not in a hurry. It happens to be fine, so he can take advantage of this time to take a look. interested in.

"Okay, is everyone here?"

Seeing that he agreed, Liang Bin's heart sank, "It's all ready, the employer made an appointment to meet in two days, and the man talked a lot, if something goes wrong, I'll just bear it. "

Gu Mu nodded, thinking that it would be normal for the other party to ask for something, but the premise is that the specification of the tomb is really like this blueprint.

"It's been a month since you've been back. Have you contacted Zhang Qi?" After talking about the serious business, Liang Bin chatted with him about the daily routine.

"Well, I've already contacted him. He's doing well now." Hearing the name, Gu Mu looked away unnaturally.

Liang Bin was thoughtful and didn't think about anything else, and continued, "You always protected him when you were young, but now he's doing well, and he has found a very beautiful girlfriend, showing off to me all day, I can hardly stand him Now, you said he was a wimp when he was a child, but he is not like that when he grows up."

"Growing up... will always change." Gu Mu said in a low voice.

Liang Bin saw that he was not interested, so he stopped talking about Zhang Qi, and started talking about the tomb. Of course, he had never seen what was inside the tomb and where it was, but he was studying archaeology. Yes, of course, he also saw the doorway of this tomb, and knew that there must be antiques in it, otherwise the prodigal son would not be able to ask him to come in.

As for the age of the tomb, he and Gu Mu had the same opinion, it was in the Warring States period, the heroes saw the same thing, and the two chatted one step closer.

When I got home, my parents were not there. Those who went to work, those who went shopping, stood in front of the door of grandpa’s room, holding the blueprint tightly in his hand. Gu Mu was hesitant to go in. When you came, he wanted grandpa to see what was going on. Is it the real Warring States tomb, or is it a fake? Second, he didn't want his grandfather to know before he went down, for fear that he would be worried.

He was hesitating when the door opened, and the old man looked at him. Although his grandfather was not yet seventy years old, his face looked very old and his back was a little hunched.

"Grandpa." Gu Mu took a breath and called naturally.

"What are you doing standing at the door, come in." After speaking, he turned around at a slow pace, and Gu Mu closed the door and walked in.

After sitting firmly, grandpa looked at his hand, "Take it out, don't squeeze it."

Gu Mu knew that he couldn't avoid it, so he simply took out the things. Grandpa took out the mirror and spread out the drawings, carefully looked at the things on it, and asked after a while, "Where did this thing come from?"

Gu Mu didn't dare to tell the truth, so he made up a lie and said, "An acquaintance brought it to me to see the age of this tomb."

"Then what are you watching?"

"I think it's from the Warring States Period." Gu Mu said truthfully.

The old man took off his glasses and put them aside, rubbed his eyes, "Do you want to go down?"

I knew I couldn't hide it, "A friend came to me, I think this tomb is worth digging."

"Let me tell you." Grandpa paused, looked up at Gu Mu, "I can't go to this tomb."

"Why?" Gu Mu didn't understand. It's not that his grandfather didn't know that he had gone down to the tomb, and he had never stopped him before. How could such a big tomb not let him go down.

"Son." Grandpa stood up and patted Gu Mu's shoulder. Although he looked light, the two slaps were powerful, "You know too little. You don't understand the ways of this tomb. You better not understand this tomb." Go." After finishing speaking, he went out, Gu Mu stood still and couldn't make up his mind for a while, although he said that his grandfather was stopping him, but he was not absolute, which made Gu Mu think about it even more.

Sometimes people are like this, the more someone blocks them, the more they have the idea of ​​going forward, and they have to hit their heads and break their blood before they know that the original road is really impossible.

Gu Mu finally went. After arriving at the appointed place, the employer hadn’t arrived yet. Several members who were going had already arrived. After hearing Liang Bin’s introduction to them, except for Gu Mu who was not familiar with him, the other five people They are old acquaintances, even if they are a group, they have visited a few tombs, and they cooperate well. Regarding Gu Mu, a new member, the others have no opinion, but they don't think much of it either.

"Liang Zi, is this your brother who has been playing with you since childhood?" The person who spoke was the oldest of the group. He was called Xie Zi by his code name. He was 26 years old and very mature. He was about 20 years old, and he was a classmate of Liang Bin in the archeology department of the university.

Liang Bin smiled and hugged Gu Mu's shoulders, "Of course, the best buddy."

"Just listening to you talking about him every day, I didn't expect to meet him. This person is different from what you said." Scorpion looked at Gu Mu calmly.

Liang Bin scratched his hair. His memories of Gu Mu at that time were all five years ago. Although Gu Mu was underage at that time, he was not ambiguous at all when fighting or something. Thinking of these five years, Gu Muchang's attitude has changed a bit from before.

"Yeah... she's a bit of a mother, but isn't her body quite strong?" Although the voice was not loud, the people around could hear it clearly, and laughed unceremoniously.

Gu Mu was taken aback when he heard that, mother? !His eldest daughter? !Brother, he is 1 meters tall. Although he doesn't have six pack abs, he still has four packs. Although his skin is not dark, he is not so white. Even if his face is a little more handsome than ordinary men, he is not as good as his mother. To the extent that you are cheating! !

Although he didn't growl in anger, his complexion was not very good. He hummed twice and glanced at Liang Bin with the corner of his eyes. Liang Bin followed after laughing and then looked at Gu Mu. His hands shrank in fright. His god! , What kind of look is this, wanting to bite? !

"Just kidding, don't take it seriously." Liang Bin said happily.

Nearly two hours later, the employer came and arrived an hour and a half late to the time agreed with them. This kind of behavior without time concept made several people quite dissatisfied, but it was all for the sake of money. Did not say.

The employer was a little bit beyond everyone's expectations. Even Gu Mu never thought that this person would be so young. He was about the same age as them, and he walked like a son-in-law. He was more attractive in a slim suit. It's a pity for them None of them are women.

"Is everyone here?" He said as he sat on the sofa, crossing his legs.

"Well, it's just us." Liang Bin was the team leader, and he led the group. Naturally, he was the one who talked to the employer.

"That's fine, just follow what we said at the time, but I can say it up front. If this matter gets out, none of you will have a good time." After finishing speaking, he took out a few pieces of paper in a decent manner Put it on the table, "You all sign here, it's an agreement, so I have a bottom line."

Liang Bin signed it first, and then a few people probably didn't even look at it, so they signed it directly. Gu Mu walked over and looked at the content on it. It was very complicated, but mainly to prevent them from speaking out, so Gu Mu signed it.

The employer left satisfied. At first they thought they were leaving today, and they had brought their backpacks, but the employer said they would leave tomorrow. The tickets had already been booked, and the one who paid the most was to arrange for a few people to live in the hotel first. Gu Mu Before he came out, he also greeted his family, saying that he was going out with Liang Bin to have fun, and the family naturally had no objection, only his grandfather looked at him meaningfully.

At night, Gu Mu also lived with them. The two share one room, and Liang Bin shares one room with him. After taking a shower and lying on the bed, Gu Mu asked, "What's the employer's last name?"

"The surname is Qin. At first I heard that the surname was Qin, and I thought about it for a while, but it turned out that it was really a nonsense." Liang Bin took out a cigarette, sat on the bed and took a few puffs, "What do you want?" He said and handed it Pass cigarettes.

Gu Mu shook his head, he never smoked, although he didn't hate it, "Keep it for yourself." He knew what Liang Bin was thinking, the specifications were similar to the Warring States cemetery, and the Qin Dynasty, the history of the Qin Dynasty was too short, There is no pattern on the tomb, but everyone knows that the tomb of Qin Shihuang has been stolen these days, and the tombs of his children are also near his tomb, and almost all of them have been found, so it is the Qin Dynasty royal family. Well, it's almost impossible.Fortunately, Gu Mu's ambition is not that big, he just wants to see and see.

In the afternoon of the next day, the few of them followed Qin Yan and left Beijing by train. The destination on the train ticket was Inner Mongolia.
