Return to the small mountain village in 1986

Chapter 308 Guess come true
Gao Mingcheng has been looking for him in the mountains. He is in good health and full of energy, even if he does not sleep all night, it will not be a problem.

He went into the mountain to search all night, not because he wanted to catch someone so that he could do meritorious service, but to confirm whether the murderer went into the mountain to dig the ancient tomb.

Xu Shi has experienced this in his previous life, and he is very sensitive to it.

It takes a lot of time for other people to go into the mountains to find people, but he doesn't. He can go around the entire Taohualing in a short time.

However, after most of the night passed, Gao Mingcheng still found nothing, but he was not discouraged, but continued to search.

Gradually, the eastern fish was white, a ray of light broke through the darkness, and the sky and the earth became more gray and white.

Gao Mingcheng stopped on a hillside, and he decided to take a short rest.

He took out an aluminum military jug from his pocket, and took several sips to quench his thirst.Then he looked left and right, found a peak and left.

But this was not enough, he also chose a tall tree to climb up, this tree is a fir tree with a slender body and lush branches and leaves at the top.

On the canopy of the tree, there are birds nesting here. The movement of his climbing awakened the sparrows in the nest, so the sparrows flew away and made a chirping sound.

One bird chirps, and a hundred birds respond.

Birds get up early, so there is a saying - the early bird gets the worm.

Today, it was just woken up early, but it was not a big problem. The sparrows gathered together to condemn them, and then flew away one after another to look for bugs.

Gao Mingcheng quickly climbed along the trunk to the crown of the tree. The fir tree is long and slender, but it is not easy to climb. It is because of his strong hands and feet and agility that he can climb up smoothly.

Standing on a high place, the view is wide, and the mountains are all under the feet.

Gao Mingcheng watched carefully. Although the trees obscured some views, fortunately it was winter, not midsummer.

Another one is that under normal circumstances, there will not be lush trees growing around the ancient tomb. This is because the ancients took some protective measures when building the ancient tomb.

They built tombs, piled sand, and piled charcoal powder and various medicinal powders. This kind of underground environment is not suitable for trees to take root.

After probing for a while, Gao Mingcheng found several suspicious locations and decided to check them all.

He started to come down from the tree, and when there were still about two meters left, he was too lazy to climb down a little bit, but jumped directly.

After landing firmly, he headed towards the nearest place.

As time passed, the sky became brighter.

Although Gao Mingcheng's eyesight is good, he can roughly see at night, but the light is good, which is naturally more conducive to observing the surrounding environment.

He headed towards a relatively empty place.

In the mountains with lush vegetation, if there is a place that is relatively open, then there must be a reason.

The vegetation is competing for spring, and all vegetation yearns for sunshine. If there is no reason, it will never be empty.

He walked all the way, and saw that the empty hillside was dug open from a distance!
The soil and rocks were scattered all over the place. With the light of the morning, he could clearly see that there was a lot of sand among the soil and rocks. Piling sand in the cemetery to mark and keep the tomb chamber dry was a common method in Song tombs.

Gao Mingcheng ran a few steps quickly, and when he got closer, he saw that two coffins underneath had been damaged, and the coffin lids were scattered on the side, exposing two dead bones.

The soil dug out is very fresh, it can be seen that it has just been dug out, and there is a hoe beside it.

It was also dry this year, and the inside of the coffin was very dry, there was no sewage, and there was nothing else in the coffin except for two dead bones.

found it!
Gao Mingcheng's heart was pounding, and he had a feeling that it was so.

Although these two ancient tombs were stolen and dug, it does not mean that the murderer Wang Zhi dug them. If it was Wang Zhi who dug them, is he still in the mountain now, or has he gone down the mountain?

This requires Gao Mingcheng to find the answer.

He lowered his head to look for the footprints. The footprints on the side were many and messy. If the ground was dry, it would be difficult for people to leave footprints on it. However, the soles of the tomb robber's shoes were stained with fresh soil, so more or less left some traces.

These traces, in the eyes of caring people, are particularly obvious.

Gao Mingcheng followed these traces and soon found a cave.

This cave is not big, it is formed naturally, in the shape of a half moon.Because the cave is relatively shallow, when Gao Mingcheng found the cave, he immediately saw Wang Zhi who was still buried in his sleep.

Beside Wang Zhi, there are some pottery pots and porcelain from the ancient tomb.

The ancients regarded death as life, so they would use pottery pots to hold whole grains in the tomb, implying that there will be food to eat after death. These pots are basically not very valuable. Real tomb robbers generally do not touch these pots. Instead, they only looked for exquisite porcelain and utensils placed next to the tomb owner.

Because they believe that there is a spirit after death, some tomb owners will bring their favorite artifacts with them to be buried with them, such as jade, gold and silverware, books, picture scrolls, etc.

Wang Zhi didn't know how he found this ancient tomb, but he was obviously worse than Gao Mingcheng, so he moved all the good things to the cave.

Gao Mingcheng scanned the surroundings, and then left quietly. When he came back, he already had two vines in his hand.

He didn't have a rope with him, but vines from the mountains would serve as a substitute for it.

So before Wang Zhi woke up, his hands and feet were bound by Gao Mingcheng.

During the process of tying, Wang Zhi woke up in a daze. He subconsciously stretched his body, but found that he could no longer move his hands and feet.

He screamed in panic, struggling to run.

"Don't worry, you can't escape." Gao Mingcheng's voice sounded, but instead of looking at Wang Zhi, he squatted down and looked at the things brought out of the tomb.

In addition to the cheap clay pots, there are also some lacquerware, including plates and small boxes, with some patterns painted on them, which look more exquisite.

The small box has a lock, but the green patina is the trace left by the years.

Gao Mingcheng tried to open it, but it couldn't be opened unless it was violently destroyed.He shook the box and heard something thump inside.

This box, possibly a dowry, contained jewelry for women.

When Gao Mingcheng looked down at these things, Wang Zhi panicked and said, "Who are you? Let me go, I can give you half!"

"Hey, I'm sorry, I want them all!" Gao Mingcheng sneered and said deliberately.

Wang Zhi was stunned. He looked down at the butcher's knife beside him, and a sternness flashed in his eyes.

He begged for mercy in a low voice: "Okay, I'll give it all to you, then let me go, and I'll go right away."

"Oh, where are you going? There is a well-dug hole in this barren mountain, so it's very convenient to bury you." Gao Mingcheng stood up, and he noticed that Wang Zhi's eyes were staring at the pig-killing knife, so he pretended Tsukuru inadvertently kicked the butcher's knife far away.

Wang Zhi saw that the pig-killing knife was getting farther away from him, and his heart was beating rapidly. At this moment, his murderous intention had already started, but he couldn't move.

Gao Mingcheng didn't take his murderous intentions seriously, but thought about how to bring people and things down the mountain.

The place where he found Wang Zhi was actually not that far away. If a normal person enters the mountain, as long as he finds the right route, he will be able to get there in half a day.

But this is too troublesome for Gao Mingcheng, he might as well do his own work to bring people and things down the mountain.

His eyes fell on half of the yellow deer in the cave.

The meat was relatively fresh, so Wang Zhi should have managed to hunt it down.

Well, just let him have a full meal first.
