Chapter 54 The Jianghu
The “life pressure money” is both a reward and a settlement, if the person who “violates the red” does not return, his family will have this money to maintain a normal livelihood, no worries; once he returns with his achievements, the “life pressure money” becomes a reward. “has become the reward money, in addition to a separate reward.
Chen blind man is not the world’s thieves of the general head, used to buy people’s hearts, “pressure life money” to give extraordinarily generous, the arrangements are ready, will be ordered, the group of thieves from the Guandi Temple dispersed, the night to prepare.
Unloading Ling grave robbers have a variety of formations, equipment, before departure to be practiced to grind, a variety of grave robbing tools should be ready, and learn the local dialects and customs of Yunnan, to wait until everything is ready, not just a day’s work.
Partridge whistle is single-handedly, said to go, not a few days, has been packed up, immediately to depart, Chen blind man insisted on sending, with a few cronies, all the way to the partridge whistle to the dongting lake.
Eight hundred miles of dongting smoke and waves, sails point, Chen blind and partridge whistle two people life running, to the world of mundane matters, from not a moment of leisure, see the mountains and water color, have to wash the dust in the chest of the sense of raising his head to see the lake side of the hill there is a restaurant, Chen blind will propose to the upper floor of the high and distant, a pot of water wine, for the partridge whistle to send off.
Partridge whistle so very good, was about to see the scenery of the cave, Chen blind man ordered his men downstairs waiting, he went up to the second floor with the partridge whistle two people before and after, picking up a seat near the window to sit down, to ask for food and wine, the first on the drink a few cups, raised his eyes to the window, only to see this restaurant in a great location, in the upper floor to look up, sails from the bottom of the foot, that the distant rivers and mountains, as far as possible in front of me.
The two were full of anxiety, in the building head to see the lake and mountains, as line in the heat, suddenly met with a clear spring, the heart more feeling, Chen blind man holding a glass of wine, eyes looking at the lake, can not help but hesitation, to the partridge whistle, said: “younger brother ah, you see from ancient times to the present day, specializing in that there is a class of heroes and heroes, not afraid of obstacles and difficulties, only for the sake of this beautiful river and mountains, to show open! Wonderful strategy across the world, so that the teachings of fame throughout the ages, you and I are full of real talent, can never be backward and slow.”
Partridge whistle is not Chen blind this ambition, has long been tired of the whole day into death, see Chen blind and old words to persuade himself to join the gang, had to perfunctorily he said: “loss of the number of wither and glory is the will of God, how to fight by the people to calculate? In the next and Chen brother different, this is not the talent of ambition, find the dust beads, if the sky see pity, so that I was lucky to retain a life in, would like to learn a hitchhiking five lakes with recluse, such as the ancient hermits generally far away from the rivers and lakes, and will not do this fight for their lives again hooks.”
Chen blind man see partridge whistle mind has decided, know difficult to retain, thought: “so good, anyway, a mountain can not tolerate two tigers, both can not be used for me, it is better to let it retire from the rivers and lakes, so as not to end up meeting with guns and swords, the bad righteousness, anyway, this guy now go to the Western Xia Blackwater City digging sand, most likely empty waste of energy moves, such as I stole the Chalongshan dedication to the King of the tomb, only to let you know that Changsheng mountain of the real ability, is definitely not to move the mountain. True ability, is by no means the moving mountain Taoist.”
Chen blind man also intends to take the red girl as a bargaining chip in the future, so that the partridge whistle and then sell a few times for the Changsheng Mountain, then said to the partridge whistle: “There is also a matter of our red girl in the mountains to Chen Mou to matchmaking, for the brother of a good thing, agreed to her, take her as her own sister in general, in the future and so on you come back from the Blackwater City, must be that the red girl’s leg wound should be cured, so why not let her go with you, her family was destroyed only the disaster, and the red girl’s leg wound should be healed. Her family was destroyed only disaster, is also a bitter and lonely person, the green forest is not the place where she settled down.”
Partridge whistle is not confined to details, immediately responded: “This go to the Western Xia Blackwater City, success or failure is hard to predict, but as long as there is life back, will not live up to the Chen brother’s good intentions, would like to take her far away.”
Chen blind man cursed in his heart: “Good you a repair heart not repair mouth, abstaining from sex not abstaining from obscene false Taoist, you promised to be really fast, also do not excuse excuses …… can be red girl after all, in Changsheng mountain incense, the future she wanted to pull out of the incense from the mountain gold wash, I’m afraid it is not so easy to see how difficult I will be for you at that time. ”
Differences in the hearts of the two have been deep, but did not show, this time on the restaurant diners gradually more and more, full house, Chen blind and partridge whistle for more than hidden hooks, inconvenient to spit in front of the public, when the immediate mouth does not talk about tomb raiding, just drinking and enjoying the lake, pointing out the scenery of the river and the mountains.
Unexpectedly drink half of the wine, next to a table of businessmen’s conversation, repeatedly mentioned “feng shui, inverted bucket” and other words, could not help but immediately attracted the attention of the partridge whistle and Chen blind man, the group intentionally lowered the sound of the conversation, but how to conceal the two big connoisseurs of the inverted bucket to listen to acupuncture points to identify the ears of Tibet.
Partridge Whistle and Chen blind are often walking in the world, how rich experience? Often said “people in the jianghu”, what is the jianghu? In fact, the jianghu is not killing, but a kind of hidden society’s pronouns, with its own rules and secret language, parasitic in the normal society, did not touch this hidden society, naturally do not know these, but if you run into the connoisseur, it is naturally a glimpse of the recognized, when the two seem to be careless drinking and chatting, next to the table of businessmen’s words, but they were listening to a word for word.
That table surrounded the six merchants dressed guests, all rough skin, drink and talk when they are hunched over, looks like the year-round digging, and they have a hidden earthy smell, this odor is grave robbers year-round digging robber holes, pry coffins, lifting corpses left behind, rubbing the blood can not be washed away, but the general public and even their own smell is not out.
But this group of people ran into the Chen blind and partridge whistle, but can not be hidden, Chen blind secretly observe the color, has long seen that these several dressed as merchants, are grave robbers, thinking that this is which way does not take the eye of the loose thief? Pouring bucket even dared to Xiangyin ground up? Partridge whistle will make a wink, and in the side of the cold eyes Zhang him then a, see what they actually have a plan.
Just listen to the several merchants dressed as thieves conspired to discuss, one of the hemp-faced man said: “this time the brothers gathered, originally to plan a big thing, recently a large number of warlords in western Hunan Nuqing County tomb raiding things, must have heard about it?”
Another scarred-faced man said: “This matter is really not small, local bandits and warlords are involved, even the news paper is all about this matter, it is said that a group of warlords in the ancient tomb with an axe to split the coffin, the result of the coffin of a white gas rushed out of the crypt, and even his mother dozens of miles away from the mountain people saw that gas, when a zombie from the coffin to sit up, spit out the ZhenZhenJinDan, the group of soldiers scared and twisted their heads to the ground. The group of soldiers scared to turn their heads and run, good guy, this thing can be really scary ……”
The hemp-faced man spat: “Jia Lao six, you fucking know a bird hair gray, this is the province of tabloid journalists make up their own sensationalism, not according to write, their bad newspaper to wipe people’s asses are too hard no one wants.”
Next to another axle neck asked: “I said Wu boss, I have a cousin in the warlord forces in the food, listen to him say to the old bear ridge in western Hunan tomb raiding, are in groups of large numbers of people, we just a few brothers, can help anything? Moreover, picking up other people’s leftover …… food is also not a slanderous ah.”
That called Jia Lao Liu’s scarred face also agreed: “Two neck said right ah, boss, now Nuqing County deep mountain tombs, almost all were dug out by the warlords and bandits, we go to the filter pit can have much to do? Besides, we are not familiar with that area, according to my brother’s opinion, why don’t we run to Shaanxi and forget about it, it is said that there is a big mountain over there, in which there is a female emperor buried, as well as the man she stole during her lifetime.”
Hemp-faced man spat on Jia Laoliu’s face again: “Ah pooh, put your mother’s dog’s stinking fart, only you have knowledge, Shaanxi you are familiar with? And then with me this do not pretend to understand, I will first pinch you to death …… Now first say business, Xiangxi thing although is already full of wind and rain, but the more this wind and wave is more profitable, to my boss Wu’s experience judgment, the old Xiongling is likely to have a large group of tombs, those warlords and bandits of the rabble know what the art of tomb raiding? Bird hair grey …… they are not just haphazardly planing pits, the real big tombs are mostly buried in the extremely deep underground, digging the ground three feet can not be found, I estimate that those warlords may also be digging a few shallow graves in recent times, that the mountains stuffed with gold and silver ancient tombs, nowadays most of them have not yet shown their heads.”
Jia Laoliu and the second neck greed, but still have a lot of concerns, warlords and bandits are often deployed thousands of people, that the mountains still have to be dug up? Even they are not digging the tomb, hidden must be extremely hidden, God knows where, although the boss of the inverted bucket craft unique in the world, but to find that kind of underground mausoleum, afraid that it is not easy ah, it is difficult to learn how we want to move the mountain of Yugong Yishan, children and grandchildren digging non-stop, according to this digging down to the generation of our heavy grandchildren can be dug out on a good thing.
Chen blind and partridge whistle heard here, the heart is quite disdainful, the original is a group of people who do not know the high ground of the folk scattered theft, listen to them in this bird mess what is the use, later sent two hand under the sharp brothers, looking for no one place to end up with them, the body sunk into the lake is also, no they stirred up the Qingxing.
The two are trying to no longer pay attention to, but heard that hemp face Wu boss sneer up, whispered to his brothers said: “You guys of this group of village workers, only know that grave robbing is digging soil planing pit, which really will be the masters of grave robbing, are with the eyes to see, that is called to see the feng shui, the mountain tombs are buried in the feng shui, as long as you can see the dragon vein in which a shovel digging down to must have something to gain, where is what is the mountain This is the profound way of searching for dragons and points, do you know it?”
The rest of the grave robbers shook their heads, “We are toads jumping into wells – we don’t understand, do you know how to find dragons and points, Boss Wu? Could it be that you have been hiding something deep in your life?”
