"elder brother!"
"elder brother--!"
Niu Jianrong, who was handcuffed on the ground and shot in both legs, saw his brother lying in a pool of blood with his own eyes. He was suddenly filled with grief and tears instantly blurred his eyes.
The two brothers were born in the countryside.
The mother died young and the father was a gambler. They were often hungry and full.
When Niu Jianrong was 8 years old, his father got into a dispute with others over gambling and was stabbed in the vital part. He was already dead before he could even be sent to the hospital.
Since then, Niu Jianxiong, who is six years older than Niu Jianrong, has become the eldest member of the family. He started walking around the streets and doing odd jobs to make money when he was only 14 years old.
Those years were extremely difficult for Niu Jianrong.
In the countryside, children without a father or mother are easily bullied.
Fortunately, the two brothers are wild enough and ruthless enough.
Adhering to the motivation of "either you have the guts to kill me, or I will kill you afterwards", the two brothers were like duckweeds in troubled times, and they survived in the end.
When their father was still alive, because the Niu brothers were both children and their small bodies were perfect for digging into tombs, they followed their father in digging many tombs. Their experience was not rich, but they knew everything they needed to know. .
As the Niu brothers grew up, their financial needs also continued to grow. At that time, it was catching up with the reform and opening up, the intersection of domestic and foreign capital, and the entire era was turbulent. So the two brothers put their minds together and finally decided to start a family business. Old business.
If you make money from dead people, money will come naturally quickly.
In this way, the two of them became more and more skilled in robbing tombs and opening caves, the cultural relics they stole became more and more precious, and the money they saved in their hands became more and more.
The two brothers built three-story villas in their hometown and each married a pretty good wife. It can be said that life is getting better and better.
It's a pity that my shoes don't get wet when I often walk by the river.
As the times continue to develop, relevant laws and regulations continue to improve, and scientific and technological means become more and more developed, Niu Jianxiong finally caught the attention of the police.
After a mistake, Niu Jianxiong was arrested by the police.
In order for Niu Jianxiong to receive a lighter sentence, Niu Jianrong invested almost all of the net worth that the two of them had accumulated over the years. It was precisely because of this incident that his wife divorced him directly.
After this incident, the Niu brothers went from being successful people in the eyes of the entire village to being tomb robbers that everyone shouted at and beat them up. In the end, they had no choice but to move out of their hometown in despair.
Four years later, Niu Jianxiong was released from prison.
The two brothers had lived a stable life for a while, and they were used to making quick money before. Just like those prostitutes who came ashore, how could they endure loneliness and be willing to make money honestly, so the two quickly So I went back to my old business.
This time, the two changed their combat ideas.
In the past, both of them cast their nets wide and caught more fish.
Now the two of them set the hook accurately and catch only big fish.
Either we don't open, or we open for two years.
In addition, the two have a clear division of labor. Niu Jianxiong is responsible for visiting sites to rob tombs, and Niu Jianrong is responsible for going abroad to sell stolen goods.
In this way, adhering to the principle of being cautious and cautious, the Niu brothers worked continuously for more than ten years, with basically no danger. The two brothers relied on each other and supported each other, and their lives gradually got better again.
Although their wives have run away and their home is gone, the two brothers are still living a comfortable life with the huge profits from reselling precious cultural relics. They must have extra hours of massage every week, and take their sister out for supper after singing. Routine operation.
Until the two brothers dug out a tripod-shaped bronze vessel from the Spring and Autumn Period some time ago from the tomb, the lives of the two brothers have undergone earth-shaking changes.
In the end, the dream of getting rich suddenly failed to come true, but he lost his life in a foreign country.
Niu Jianrong's eyes were filled with tears. He was obviously a forty-year-old man, but he was crying uncontrollably at this moment, because there was no one in his world who would rather let him starve than let him eat.
"elder brother!"
Niu Jianrong shouted until he was hoarse, but he was bleeding a lot, and soon he turned pale and couldn't scream anymore.
Next to him, Tang Yuan glanced at the grief-stricken Niu Jianrong, without any pity in his heart, because from the perspective of a bystander, there was nothing worthy of pity for what the two brothers had done over the years.
By digging their ancestors' graves in their own home, and then reselling their ancestors' belongings to foreigners at low prices, Tang Yuan felt that they were no different from those traitors who betrayed their country and sought glory a hundred years ago.
Such people will die when they die.
Tang Yuan is not a pedantic person, let alone a holy mother.
After catching them, giving them good food and drink, and then sending them back to the country for trial by the state, Tang Yuan could not do such a thing.
Tang Yuan ignored the crying Niu Jianrong. He raised his feet and walked straight towards the storage room. During this period, he stepped past Niu Jianxiong and Wei Zhengfei, as if he had stepped through two thresholds, without any fluctuation in his expression.
The others did not move, only Xiong Kai and Yuan Meng followed Tang Yuan into the storage room. When Xiong Kai passed by Niu Jianxiong and Wei Zhengfei, out of instinct, he subconsciously wanted to replenish his gun.
But he just raised the muzzle of the gun and looked at Wei Zhengfei, whose head was shot, and Niu Jianxiong, who was beaten into a sieve. The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and finally gave up the idea of refilling the gun.
Tang Yuan didn't notice the strangeness on Xiong Kai's side, because since he walked into the storage room, his attention was attracted by the tripod-shaped bronze in the corner.
The body is oblate, with short hoofs and feet, and is engraved with moiré patterns.
Tang Yuan looked at the simple tripod-shaped bronze vessel, and his mood was inevitably a little ups and downs.
Just because of this tripod-shaped bronze vessel, dozens of lives were lost.
Is this retribution?
Tang Yuan didn't know, but in his opinion, such a valuable treasure should not have been left on this land. It was born on the land of China, so it should stay on the land of China.
Tang Yuan silently looked at the artifacts in front of him, then he took off his right glove and gently touched the tripod-shaped bronze vessel with his right hand wearing the mysterious ancient ring.
As the 500 collection value disappeared, several system virtual prompt boxes appeared in front of Tang Yuan's eyes.
[Item: Bronze]
[Material: Bronze]
[Year: 472 BC]
[Grade: Heirloom Grade]
…
When Tang Yuan saw the information given by the system clearly, he couldn't help but take a breath.
Tang Yuan just guessed that this item might be extremely old, but he never expected that this item would have a history of nearly 2,500 years ago.
472 BC!
What era was that?
Tang Yuan thought about it for a moment, and it seemed that it was the period from the late Spring and Autumn Period to the early Warring States Period. This history is really long.
Tang Yuan sighed secretly in his heart, then he called up the mission panel, clicked on the mission at the beginning of the five-star mission path, and tried to submit it.
It can be repeated several times without any response from the system.
This made Tang Yuan a little confused. He looked around and saw nothing but garbage.
"This tripod-shaped bronze vessel from the Spring and Autumn Period is not required for the mission?"
Thinking of this, Tang Yuan's brows gradually furrowed...
