When Shao Dengke heard this, he was stunned. He subconsciously picked up the tea cup again, and after a long time, he put it back down.
Then he looked at Cheng Shi, then sighed and said: "Agent Cheng, can you guarantee that what I said will not be spread out?!"
Cheng Shi said with a smile: "If this secret is Boss Shao's private matter, I can naturally promise not to spread it to others. I can't guarantee anything else!"
After hearing Cheng Shi's words, Shao Dengke smiled and said: "Forget it, although this matter is not my personal matter, if it is not resolved, it will always be my heartache!"
After Shao Dengke figured it out, he sighed and looked into the distance, as if he was remembering something. After a long time, he spoke.
“Twenty years ago, although my family was already a wealthy family in the neighborhood, it was not as big as it is now. Even I could not have imagined that it would become what it is now!
Originally I didn't want to recall this incident, but I didn't expect that I was still being targeted. I didn't tell my family about it.
So it's very possible that the descendants of that person came to me. If I don't say it now, I probably won't have the chance to say it again in the future! "
When Cheng Shi heard this, he did not interrupt, but quietly waited for Shao Dengke to continue.
Shao Dengke continued: Twenty years ago, when I was very young, I was also a very rebellious person.
One day my father and I had a fight, and I got angry and ran away from home. After leaving for more than a month, I ran out of money.
I didn’t want to go back and bow to him. Then, I wanted to find something to do, but I realized that I didn’t know anything.
By some chance, I accidentally entered a team of dozens of people, and the people in this team were very rich.
Gradually, I not only discovered that they stole, but also robbed, even tombs, because I could read.
You can help them identify some items with inscriptions, thereby increasing the price, and slowly entering their core team.
More than a year passed like this. One night, someone woke me up from my sleep and took me into the mountains.
It didn't take long for me to discover that they were actually robbing tombs there. Although I had joined them for more than a year, they never led me to do this.
The leader of this team was a big man in his forties named Miao. He walked up to me and smiled at me.
Then he took me to a large hole that had been dug, pointed to a stone tablet, and asked me what was written on it. !
When Cheng Shi heard this, he frowned. He frowned, not because of the other party's tomb robbery, but because he wondered why Shao Dengke would explain the matter in such detail.
Firstly, the other party deliberately told him a story to divert his attention, and secondly, this incident made the other party remember it deeply!
Shao Dengke paused for a moment. He didn't have any violent reaction when he saw Cheng. He smiled bitterly and continued.
Although I can read, I can barely recognize some of the characters above. This is actually the tomb of a king!
It was written about the king's life, and at the end it was written about the death of the tomb robber. Unexpectedly, Boss Miao burst out laughing after hearing this!
"Great, what that guy said is indeed true. There really is a big tomb in this mountain. Okay, we've made a fortune. Let's keep digging!!"
I was a little scared at that time. After all, the words "grave robbers died" were mentioned, and I also knew that all large tombs had mechanisms.
When I was about to leave, Boss Miao saw that I wanted to leave and pulled me over again. He laughed at me.
"You can't leave. You are the only one who knows more here, and I still need you to meet some treasures..."
After saying this, Shao Dengke sighed, alas...
As expected, there was indeed a mechanism in the tomb. When we entered the tomb chamber, only five of the eighteen people who went to dig the tomb were dead.
The story continues: Fortunately, this is not the first time they have robbed a tomb, otherwise they might not even be able to survive.
Boss Miao looked at the five people around him with a very ugly look on his face, but he had no way out at that time.
He had lost more than a dozen people. If he couldn't get some things out, then his loss would be too great. He directed the remaining people to switch on and off.
I was left beside him, and the remaining people carefully opened the coffin, but there was no danger as everyone imagined.
Just when everyone was breathing a sigh of relief, one of the four people who made the switch took out a gun. He fired several shots, grabbing the gun and hitting the vital part.
Bang...bang...
When I saw that scene, I was so frightened that I lay down on the ground. After a while, the gunfire stopped, and I dared to raise my head.
Boss Miao next to me also lay down, and only the person who fired first was left standing in the entire tomb.
The man smiled and said: "I didn't expect this big tomb to be so dangerous, but it's good. I finally got my revenge!"
Then the man walked up to me, shot Mr. Miao twice on the ground, and then used the gun to force me to take out the contents of the coffin.
Although I was frightened, I knew that he spared my life because he was afraid that there was still a mechanism in the coffin. As long as I got out, I would still be dead!
I took out everything in the coffin for him, but he never let me get close to him, and I had no chance to fight back.
It wasn't until I was about to leave the tomb, and when I came to a trap in the tomb passage, that I knew that I would definitely die if I got out, so I might as well die with him.
I deliberately touched the mechanism, then crawled on the ground and resigned myself to my fate. Although I was hit by an arrow in my arm, I survived.
But he did not survive. I was the only one who got out alive. After I got out, I buried the grave soil back.
In the next few years, I gradually retrieved all the gold and silver treasures from the tombs, expanding my Shao family's business.
When Cheng Shi heard this, he said with some doubts: "No, since you have expanded your family's business with your treasure, why is the other party so aggressive?"
After Cheng Shigang finished saying this, he suddenly thought of something and said with some surprise: "Did you also take out the monument at the entrance to the tomb?!"
Shao Dengke also said with some admiration: "Agent Cheng is really smart, you actually guessed it!"
Cheng Shi continued: "You must have discovered some secret on the stele, so you got the stele back!"
At this time, Shao Dengke picked up the tea cup and took a few sips before continuing: "Yes, there is indeed a secret on that tablet, but I haven't solved it yet.
Why I discovered that secret was because I had a lot of doubts afterwards. The tomb was too small for a king! "
Cheng Shi said with some confusion: "Since you are the only one who survived among those who robbed the tomb, you won't talk about it everywhere.
So how did others discover your secret, and how did you confirm that others came here for this monument? ! "
