Mountain and Sea Treasures

Chapter 802 Murder and Hiding a Corpse
I don't know why he cares so much?But subconsciously, he didn’t want to talk too much. He just told him that Kumbu’s identity was different from ours, and now that he was bored in the room, he naturally had his own things to do. If he broke into the room without permission, his life might be in danger.

It may be that my fear of life scared him, or let him know that the matter of Kumbu is not so easy to inquire about, so he changed the subject and talked about some of their discoveries in the underground tunnel.

"Some of them are not from the Western Han Dynasty, but antiques from before the Western Han Dynasty, but most of them are pots and pans, many of which have been broken, and some of the rest have quite a few cracks, which are not very valuable for research." Shen Jianguo said Speaking of these things is logical, and it doesn't seem to make me feel as uncomfortable as before.

After breakfast, I became our representative. Shen Jianguo talked to Lao Yan several times, but Lao Yan declined because he was not the person in charge of this mission.After a few times, Shen Jianguo also knew, and he could only talk to me, so he gave me a high look.

I didn't show any timidity, but I still looked at Lao Yan with doubts in my eyes. He never said that I would be in charge along the way, but now he looks like he doesn't care, which makes me feel a little curious.

But I won't ask in front of Shen Jianguo and the others, just greet them appropriately.

After breakfast, Shen Jianguo said they were going back to get some equipment and asked us to wait for him at the intersection.

After they left, I stood under the hotel and asked softly, "Old Yan, who are you this time?"

"Do you still want me to remind you?" Lao Yan's tone was not kind.

I immediately shut up, knowing that after the Kunlun Mountains operation, Lao Yan would naturally retreat to the second line, so that I could take the top position as a matter of course.

It's just that I'm still somewhat unaccustomed to it...

But Lao Yan didn't give me time to adapt, but said seriously: "This mission is unusual, you are young, you may have more opportunities."

What he said was cryptic, but I still understood. He meant that Shen Jianguo might be very cautious in front of him, but not necessarily in front of me, and might reveal more flaws.

I nodded as I accepted the status of 'responsible person'.

In fact, Lao Yan consciously asked me to take responsibility for the last few missions. I knew he was afraid that I would not be able to grow, so he did it on purpose.

Seeing that I accepted it, Lao Yan asked me what I think of Shen Jianguo?
"Old fox." I looked up at the hotel and said.

This man seemed honest and honest, but when we first arrived, he asked Li Ping to pick us up, and then took us directly to the restaurant without waiting for us to ask. It can be said that he completely took the initiative.

If it weren't for the fact that we are not a real archaeological team and our purpose is not to compete with them in the excavation of ancient tombs, we might be led away by his nose!

Lao Yan nodded and said: "You're right, I know him, a typical old fox, but with a loyal and good face, I don't know how many people have been deceived. But he doesn't have any bad intentions, It’s nothing more than wanting us to be the vanguard, and after the mechanism is solved, we will compete for the opportunity to dig.”

I shook my head amusedly, then he was really wasting his time, and we would not compete with them for the opportunity to dig.

Once the mechanism is lifted, we can get back to life if we can get the cold corpse and jade clothes.

But what I care about is not Shen Jianguo's attitude, but Li Ping's reaction last night. They must have something to hide from us about this ancient tomb.

They came down after we chatted for a few words, everyone was carrying heavy packages, and they looked like they were facing a big enemy, which made me frown.

"Professor Shen, who are you?" I asked as I followed them forward.

Professor Shen smiled and said, "I just want to follow you and see what this ancient tomb looks like."

I looked at Shen Jianguo and felt that his idea was really weird. How could he be sure that we could enter the tomb now?

But I didn't say much, I just said to let them relax, maybe they won't go to the grave today.

Shen Jianguo groaned and said, didn't you come to dig a tomb?
"Professor Shen was joking. You also said that two comrades from the archaeological team have already folded in. How can we go straight down? We must be more cautious." I replied with a half-smile.

This Shen Jianguo may be a good professor, but his heart may not be good. He is so in a hurry, he doesn't care whether we will be in danger or not.

They didn't know our identities, but they thought we were expert archaeologists sent by Yanjing. From yesterday to today, he didn't mention whether we would encounter danger, but kept telling us that there would be hidden in the tomb. How many jewels.

I sneered, I naturally know that there are mountains of gold and silver in the tomb, but this must be taken by life.

Li Ping probably felt my unhappiness, he smiled and said: "Little brother, my master is impatient when he encounters a tomb, don't take it to heart."

"Understood!" I said lightly.

The department store was already in front of us. Before I could go in, a person rushed out of it. It was a middle-aged woman in her 40s, fat and fat, as if she had rolled out of it.

I looked at her and already guessed the identity of this person.

Sure enough, she grabbed Shen Jianguo's sleeve and said, "What the hell is going on? Now the whole city is spreading rumors that my man killed someone. How will our business continue in the future?"

Shen Jianguo supported the fat woman, shook his head, and said that the matter is still under investigation and cannot be disclosed.

The fat woman stopped working, saying that you investigate and investigate, our family can’t make a living, and the child is being pointed at when he goes to school. How can we survive?
I frowned, and looked at Shen Jianguo with some displeasure. Didn't they say that this family has been properly arranged? This is the situation now?
Shen Jianguo also got a little impatient, and said sharply: "We have given you the guarantee of life during this period, so don't make trouble for no reason!"

The fat woman sat down on the ground and cried about how hard it was for them. They managed to make a living by opening a department store, but they were framed for killing and hiding corpses. No one clarified them. Now they are leaving alone. She would be scolded on the street, saying that they were murderers, and her son was bullied every day at school, but she couldn't say it out of reason.

I felt uncomfortable listening to it. Although there is no way to say everything about the discovery of the ancient tomb, I can still tell the outside world that the ancient tomb is suspected to have been discovered and is under investigation. Why bother to charge them with the crime of murder?
You must know that gossip is the scariest thing. After a long time, no one will believe it even if it is explained in the newspaper.

So this kind of thing has to be extinguished at the source from the very beginning, and these people can't be allowed to talk about it, otherwise once we leave, we don't know what will happen to this matter.

I gave Shen Jianguo a dissatisfied look. He really did this dishonestly.I heard that the fat woman didn't mention the money for a long time, but he thinks that he has given the family living expenses, so that the influence of these rumors can be erased?
This is impossible. I know the rumors are terrible, and I also know that if the clarification is delayed, this family will not be able to survive in this place in the future.

I took a step forward and reached out to support the fat woman: "Auntie, we will clarify immediately."

"Really?" The fat woman looked at me in disbelief. I knew what she meant, because I looked young, and Lao Yan was in a state of not caring about anything. Among us, Shen Jianguo looked the better. Can call the shots.

I smiled and said it was true, we came from Yanjing to solve this matter.

As soon as I mentioned Yanjing, the suspicion on the fat woman's face immediately decreased a lot. She held my hand and kept begging, saying that there was nothing she could do. Today her son was bullied again at school, but at the very least With the crime of murdering the family, no one would talk to her even if she wanted to reason.

I nodded and said that this matter will definitely be resolved today, and let her go back and wait for news.

Seeing that I was so determined, she stopped making trouble. I looked at her leaving back, and before Shen Jianguo could say anything, I took the lead in attacking: "Professor Shen, I am a junior. In fact, I shouldn't have said these things, but you did it like this." , have you considered the life of this family?"
