The place where Ning Cheng hid the evidence was actually not very far from the small courtyard where he rented. After walking a mile or two to the west from the small courtyard, he saw a deserted vegetable field, which was exactly the location marked on the map. .
"It should be right here." Shen Cha took a step back and waved to the guards following her, "Come on, let's start working!"
Merlin had been gearing up for a long time. After hearing Shen Cha's words, she rushed in with a shovel. She had already seen the picture once before. Although Ning Cheng's drawing skills were not satisfactory, she could understand it clearly and understood the hidden meaning. The location of the box was highlighted, and she still had a vague impression of it, so she ran directly to the first marked location and started digging.
Shen Cha left a guard beside him. When the remaining few saw that Mei Lin had rushed in, they were not willing to be outdone. They jumped into the vegetable field with a shovel, spread out, found the right position, and started working hard. .
Shen Cha turned his head to look at Jin Jing, who was holding his arms and looking lazily next to him, and sighed softly.
Originally Shen Haolin should have accompanied him on this trip, but Xue Ruitian said that there were more than a dozen official documents that needed Shen Haolin to review personally, so he left him in the camp. Jin Jing heard that he was coming to dig up evidence. , volunteered to accompany Shen Cha on a trip.
"What's wrong? Don't sigh all the time at such a young age." Jin Jing looked at Shen Cha and then at the guards working enthusiastically in the vegetable field, and chuckled, "I haven't seen such a passionate scene for a long time. It must have been a year since these guys did this kind of work, right?”
"Get used to it first. When the weather is almost hot, it's time to reclaim the wasteland in and outside the city. Miaomiao has cultivated a lot of new seeds. Let's see if the new seeds are sown. Will this year's harvest be better than in previous years? It’s better.”
"I know this." Jin Jing nodded, "Those seeds cost Miao Miao a lot of hard work, I hope they can come true!" He looked at the guards who were busy digging holes in the vegetable field, "Ning Cheng, this kid, buried It’s pretty deep.”
"There has been a lot of rain recently. If the box is buried shallowly, the box hiding the things will be washed out by the rain, and it may be picked up by people passing by. That would not be good. If it is not picked up, it will be soaked in it for a long time. In the water, the contents of the box may be damaged. If a pile of junk is dug out, wouldn't it be a failure?"
"That's true. There has been a lot of sleet and snow recently. There was even a small hailstorm two nights ago. Although it didn't last long, it rained very intensively."
"When?" Shen Cha looked at Jin Jing curiously, "Why don't I know at all?"
"You don't know that's right. Didn't Miaomiao give you acupuncture that night? Haolin said that you slept very soundly at night and didn't even wake up. You slept until dawn."
"Then I know, it's true. Every time Miao Miao gives me an injection, I sleep very deeply at night. It feels like I won't be able to wake up even if the sky falls." Shen Cha nodded and looked at One of the guards dug out a box wrapped in oil paper from the ground, moved it out and placed it in the open space. She smiled, "Ning Cheng is a thoughtful child, and he also knows how to wrap it in oil paper."
"Pfft!" Jin Jing almost choked on her own saliva after listening to Shen Cha's words, "You!"
"Huh? What's wrong?" Shen Cha felt that Jin Jing was laughing very strangely and didn't understand what he was laughing at. "Brother Xiaojing, is there anything funny about what I just said?"
"Of course it's funny." Jin Jing reached out and rubbed Shen Cha's head and said with a smile, "I am still a child, and I still call others children every day. Ning Cheng is two or three years older than you, what kind of child are you! "
"It's just a child!" Shen Cha flattened his lips and sighed softly when he saw that Merlin, who was the first to rush in, still hadn't found anything yet, "Tell me, the Ning family is also a famous family, why is it so dirty? "
"Have you ever heard of a description of a person who appears to be sanctimonious but is actually a male thief and a female prostitute?"
"I've heard of it!" Shen Cha nodded, "It's really not an exaggeration to use it to describe the Ning family, it's very appropriate."
"Right?" Jin Jing sneered, "The world always says how noble scholars are and how vulgar warriors are.
In fact, scholars are not necessarily noble, and warriors are not necessarily vulgar. Not to mention anything else, just look at the kind of people who come in and out of the brothels in the south of the Yangtze River all year round, and you will know what kind of things are filling the minds of these scholars. "
"People don't waste their youth in being romantic. If most of the scholars were really of noble character, these places would probably be closed down in one day."
"That's natural." Jin Jing smiled, "A rich family like Wang Xie still spoils his concubines and destroys his wife. He keeps courtesans and raises children from other wives, and they are still treated as talking points, let alone Ning. It is normal for a small clan like the Clan that has just passed a hundred years and has not experienced wind, frost, rain, and snow to suddenly get up and go to heaven. Sister Ning Cheng's experience is not uncommon among their clan. It is common among people in the entire Jiangnan. It's not uncommon in the clan." He sighed softly, "You know, our Jin family is not anonymous, right?"
"Yeah!" Shen Cha nodded, "I heard from my brother that Brother Xiaojing's family was a big clan that could rival Wang Xie many years ago. It was only a sudden change that caused Brother Xiaojing's family to fall from the clouds to the bottom. "
"It can't be said to be a sudden change. Everything is cause and effect, and everything has its traces."
"I've never heard brother Xiaojing talk about things at home. Do you want to talk?" Shen Cha tilted his head and looked at Jin Jing, "Is it convenient?"
"It's boring anyway, let's just chat, there's nothing inconvenient about it." Jin Jing rubbed Shen Cha's head again, "You have to know that families like the Shen family and the Xue family are actually the best. Including the Song family, there are not many clan members who have strong self-discipline. As long as they don’t commit suicide, nothing will happen to them and they will remain in the world for a long time.”
"What does the long stream of water mean?"
"Yes!" Jin Jing nodded, "For a big family like Wang Xie, the direct line alone has thousands of people. If you add in the side branches, if you really count, it's tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands. A big family. Even if the clan leader is strict and the clan rules are strict, there are always things that cannot be controlled. In addition, there are people who are good at deceiving the superiors and hiding from the subordinates. This will create more hidden dangers for the family's destruction, right?"
"So, this is how Brother Xiaojing's family has fallen?"
"Yeah!" Jin Jing nodded, "At that time, there were nearly 100,000 people in the Jin family, and the clan leaders and elders couldn't control them at all. There was a side branch that participated in the rebellion. After it was defeated, it was exposed. In the beginning, Because this side branch has already been released in five servers, the direct line and the relatively similar side branches have escaped disaster, but I didn’t expect that this was the beginning of the nightmare.”
