"What's wrong?" Wu Jiayi asked puzzled seeing my strange behavior.

I hurriedly raised my body and gestured to her: "There is a voice from below!"

Wu Jiayi stared wide-eyed, and hurriedly lay down on the ground to listen: "Huh? No..."

"No, it's impossible, I—" I tried my best to lower my voice, before I finished speaking, I saw Wu Jiayi waving at me, stood up after a while, and said with a pale face, "I heard you."

It was extremely quiet in the forest at night.The weird sounds of insects in summer, the rustling of bamboo leaves in the wind, and the whirling shadows of bamboo in the setting sun all make my skin crawl.Since I was a child, I have grown up in a bustling metropolis, so I have never experienced such a scene.The two of them just looked at each other for a while, and finally I asked a little flustered: "Why, what should I do?"

Wu Jiayi glanced at the slightly gloomy grave at this moment, took a deep breath and said: "What age is it now, and you are still suspicious! It must have come from a mouse or something. Have you finished knocking your head?"

"Hmm." I was still a little worried. I always felt that it was not safe under the grave, and now I no longer have that sense of intimacy.

Wu Jiayi didn't speak any more, found a gap, and stepped on the shovel.At the moment when the shovel turned over the stones, there was a sound of "Huh--", a gust of cold wind suddenly blew up, making the two of them shiver!

"Don't hesitate, the more strange it is below, the more likely it will be useful to us." Wu Jiayi seemed to see what was on my mind, and hurriedly urged: "Oh, I really don't look like a man!"

That's all, anyway, I can't run away anyway, just dig it!I spit into the palm of my hand, and I swung the hammer and hit it hard.Wu Jiayi was right, the cemetery on this mountain was indeed not dug very deep, and because the stones had been crushed during the burial, it is still very easy to dig now.

The two of them continued to dig for nearly three hours, stopping and stopping, before they removed the thick layer of crushed stones.According to Wu Jiayi, if you dig down about half a meter, you should be able to touch the coffin.But back then, my grandfather left in a hurry, and I didn't know if there was a coffin. If I accidentally damaged my grandfather's body, it would be a heinous, rebellious, and unforgivable beast!

Therefore, I hurriedly reminded Wu Jiayi: "Be careful, when my grandfather leaves, he might not even have the coffin ready."

Wu Jiayi nodded: "Yes, I know."

After a short rest, the two of them took the shovel in Wu Jiayi's hand and started digging. I felt something was wrong when I shoveled down!It is said that so many years have passed, and the slope here is very steep, so there is no possibility of water retention. Why does the shovel seem to be stuck in the clay when it is shoveled down!

I tried my best to dig out the first shovel of sealing soil.But before I could see what was going on, Wu Jiayi screamed "Ah—" and said, "Look!"

Being called out like this by her scared me so much that I almost turned around and ran away, but luckily I was caught by her just in time.With the help of the blazing flashlight, I hurriedly looked at the pile of soil dug out just now. This look was not serious, and I couldn't help but feel a chill down my back.The excavated soil layer turned out to be blood red!It seems that blood will bleed when you step on it, and the glue-like feeling is more like the viscosity of the blood itself!

"This, this could not be the blood-red soil around Yanling back then, right?" Wu Jiayi's voice trembled a little, and her face became paler and paler.

I took the head of the shovel and smelled it, but it didn't smell fishy, ​​as if it wasn't real blood.However, this color always makes the two of them tremble with fear.

Wu Jiayi glanced at me, pointed to the bottom and said, "Your grandfather can't just be buried here."

I also feel a little weird, but the more scared I am, the more I want to dig it out.It's no wonder that the family's luck has been so miserable these years, and the ancestral graves are soaked in blood, can it be healed?It seems that even if Wu Jiayi doesn't insist on continuing today, I still have to remove Grandpa's coffin, otherwise the family will continue to decline like this!

"Miss Wu, just stand next to me and hold the flashlight." I told Wu Jiayi, and then picked up the shovel and started digging.About an hour later, when I shoveled down again, there was a muffled sound from the ground.

"It's the coffin!" Wu Jiayi said excitedly, "Now you don't have to worry about hurting your grandfather, and the contents inside can be preserved."

Knowing that there is a coffin protecting me below, my speed has also increased a lot.Not long after, the entire coffin cover was exposed, which was smaller than the coffins usually buried in the plain.The width is less than one meter, and the length is close to two meters. Because it has been in such a humid place for many years, the coffin board has been rotten and lost its appearance, and it has lost any strength.If this was someone else's grave, I would have gone down with a hammer, but now it's different, my grandfather is buried underneath!

But looking at the rotten coffin lid, I always felt that something was wrong.In our line of work, we all have some special sensitivity to antiquities. Although ancient tombs do not belong to antiques, it seems that the feeling for antiquities has also spread to this.
