The eagle chirps and barks in the sky.
Yue Guanchao had finished his lunch and was lying on a chair basking in the sun. When he saw a white eagle flying from the sky, he immediately stood up.
This time, the sparrowhawk was not so vigilant and landed directly on his neck, kicking its feet repeatedly.
Song Siyuan took the bamboo tube and opened the note. There was quite a lot of ink on it:
"It can be divided into two, and everything can be done easily."
Yue Guanchao chewed grass roots, raised his feet on his knees and shook, and said with a sob: "The Tang family is very generous and they don't bargain."
"It's not generosity, it's just a helpless compromise."
Song Siyuan took the grass out of his mouth and sat next to him:
"I hinted in my letter that the imperial family knew about this, and even went out of their way to tell them about the underground trip to Beijing."
"The old witch is so shrewd, she naturally guessed that there was more treasure in the tomb than she expected. Since both parties can have enough to eat and drink, why do they have to eat alone? If there is one more person to share the spoils, there will be one more ally to protect each other. "
"Ouch~"
Yue Guanchao's eyes were playful and he deliberately teased:
"Hei, you aristocratic families are really evil. Unlike small families like us, you can only fight for half an acre of Susukino and a few trees at most. If you get angry, you will curse in the distance, and then start talking again after a few days."
Song Siyuan turned around, her eyes suspicious and shrewd:
"Black? How can there be white in this world? The world is not either black or white, but more of the gray between black and white. If you, Yue Guanchao, become the emperor of a country, you will have to become so black."
"It can be seen that most people are unable to do evil, not because they are so kind, but because they have no chance to do evil."
"What did you say?"
Lou Yunxian opened the window and saw Song Yue and Song Yue joking from a distance.
"There is news from the Tang family. We will have to meet the court again soon."
Sooner or later, they had to go again. Yue and Song took the note and rode to the court compound.
The steward was already very familiar with them, so he allowed them to enter through the southeast corner gate without asking for invitations.
This courtyard is located in the gatekeeper's courtyard. There are two-story pavilions along the north wall. It is the residence of the servants of the court. The corner gatehouse happens to be the stable and sedan room.
They dismounted and were led into the Imperial Hall in the west courtyard of the concierge by the steward.
"My host has invited other guests. You may not know them. When my host is finished, he will introduce them to you one by one."
As he walked towards the housekeeper with his back bent, Yue Guanchao also knew in his heart that being able to put them together to receive them must be his partner in this tomb robbing operation, but he didn't know who it was.
As soon as they entered the south living room, there were two rows of seats in the hall, one on each side, with two completely different people sitting there.
These two people are completely different in age, height, fatness and thinness. They are like people from two different worlds, incompatible with each other.
Yue Guanchao looked at the middle-aged man on the east chair.
He looked about forty-five, not too tall, and his triangular rat eyes were very capable of focusing light, and he looked at everything as if he were staring at a treasure.
He has thick lips, big ears, and an oily face, but despite his age, he has fair skin and slender hands, and his body seems to have been riddled with black pimples and is skinny. At first glance, he looks like a master who has never touched the spring water. He has been idle for many years, which makes him feel lazy. The lazy and wealthy temperament overflows the body.
The way Youzai Youzai drinks tea, he looks like a smooth and sophisticated old man.
The young man on the west chair is much better!
This young man looked to be only twenty years old, with a square face, a broad forehead, raised veins on his arms, and a dark complexion like bronze.
The muscles all over his body make the Orion cloth armor plump and bumpy, and his eyes are so bright that they seem to be holding stars, and he looks at people with enthusiasm and sincerity.
Looking at the shotgun, bow and arrow behind him, he must be a hunter from near Changbai Mountain. He is sitting as if on a blind date, his posture upright and not daring to slouch his back, as if he is an honest man.
"Oh, my nephew is here!"
He looked back and saw that Chao Wenshun was late. Since the real masters were here, he and Song Siyuan were not shy and immediately sat down to drink tea.
"This time there is a lot of danger in digging the kiln, and there is no mechanism in the underground city. I specially found two helpers to support the pot with you."
Digging kilns and digging buckets are slang words used by Tufuzi, which means tomb robbing.
No matter which dynasty or generation you are in, activities such as digging graves and damaging ancestral graves are extremely morally damaging. Once caught, you will be executed in public. In life, the word "grave robbing" is not mentioned, and various words are generally used. replace.
Zombies are avoided as "old rice dumplings", candles are called "liangzi", gold is called "gopher", silver is called "earth dragon", copper coins are naturally called "earth snakes", and digging a grave dug by others is called a filter pit. It means digging a hole in the tomb, and robbing means tearing off the top of the tomb and robbing it all the way to the bottom.
Such argots vary from region to region and from different sects, but in the final analysis they are used to ward off evil spirits and avoid disasters.
However, when he heard Chao Wenshun mention the kiln building, he became curious for a moment.
Whenever the second uncle talks about robbing tombs, he also digs kilns. Could it be that the second uncle is also a native of the imperial family?
He didn't dare to ask about this in detail, for fear of pulling out the carrot and bringing out the mud, so he silently listened to it and remembered it in his heart.
Chao Wenshun guided Song and Yue to look at the other two:
"This young man's name is Ge Da, and he is a villager in Huangwei Village. As for the other one, he is naturally Mao Chunyan, the cat master. He is an expert at finding gold and fixing acupoints, and looking at objects to suppress treasures."
Chao Wenshun knew that Yue Song was not familiar with them, so he deliberately explained the qualifications of Ge Da and Mao Chunyan clearly.
