Chapter 20 Moth-body and Chi-patterned Double Bis(1/4)

Moth body and chi pattern double jade 1

In the forest at the end of the valley, there were waves of dull thunder, rumbling, rumbling, rumbling. It was noon on a clear day. The sky was clear and there were no dark clouds. Why did the thunder suddenly strike? Everyone's heart sank.

I finally climbed out of the ancient tomb, but what happened?

If you use your ears to distinguish it more carefully, it doesn't sound like thunder. The sound is getting closer and closer. It seems to be some huge beast, running towards the valley from a distance, its footsteps are heavy, and its body keeps hitting the trees while running.

It sounded like continuous thunder, mixed with a few dog barks.

I heard dogs barking, and then I realized that there were three fewer dogs in the valley. There were only five big hunting dogs lying on the ground, and the other three giant mastiffs were nowhere to be seen. I was so exhausted just now that I didn't bother to take a closer look at the hunting dogs. Maybe we won't be there for a long time.

Back home, the hunting dogs took turns to hunt. What kind of beast was driven by the giant mastiff to run so loudly?

Yingzi listened carefully for a while, smiled and said it was okay, they were chasing wild boars, let's all go to the hillside to watch the fun, and we can eat the wild boars later.

As we climbed halfway up the hillside, we saw that the big trees in the forest were broken one by one, and the hunting dogs in the valley couldn't stay still. They fanned out in silence to stop the wild boars in the valley.

the way to go.

I saw a red pine snapping at the entrance of the valley, and a big wild boar crashed out from behind the tree. If this wild boar didn't have a long trunk, I almost thought it was a half-sized elephant. It weighed over a thousand kilograms.

The weight of the mane is black and long, and the tusks on both sides of the mouth are curved upward, like two daggers. These tusks are not only a proud male symbol, but also mark that it is the wild boar king in the forest. It is fat.

It has a round body, short and thick limbs, spreads its hooves, and dives into the valley like a whirlwind.

Behind the big wild boar, three giant mastiffs chased in a leisurely manner. They neither pounced or bit, nor stayed too far away. One in front and three behind, they all ran into the Savage Ditch.

The skin of the wild boar is not much better than the skin of the rhinoceros. When it is idle in the forest, it rubs its fat body on the pine trees. Firstly, it relieves the itching. Secondly, it also gets the pine resin on its body. It is not afraid.

Mosquito bites, in summer, the mosquitoes in the deep mountains and old forests are as big as small birds. There is a saying in the mountains: three mosquitoes make a dish. This is not an exaggeration at all. Even the old scalpers can't resist the bites of the big mosquitoes in the mountains. Only

The wild boar is not afraid of mosquitoes. Its skin is just a layer of iron armor, and no one can bite it. The two fangs and its huge weight are the wild boar's magic weapon for running rampant in the forest. It is absolutely capable of both offense and defense. Tigers, bears, golden leopards in the mountains can all

I can't say enough about it.

However, the giant mastiffs trained by the hunters have special tricks to deal with wild boars. The mastiffs are the same size as a calf, but they are still smaller than this big wild boar. These three giant mastiffs want to drive away the wild boars.

Go to the depths of the valley to deal with it, because there are all big trees in the forest, so you can't use it, and the wild boar is like a tank when it rushes.

The leaf litter in Yerengou Valley is extremely deep. Before the big wild boar could reach half way, its limbs were sunk into the fallen leaves due to its heavy weight. Three big mastiffs surrounded it, biting here and there, consuming the wild boar's energy.

In addition to their physical strength and vigor, five other large hunting dogs were also surrounding them. In this case, they did not dare to intervene and compete with the mastiffs for credit. They could only act as little Luluo cheering from the side.

The big wild boar was angry and anxious. It struggled stupidly in the leaf litter, jumped up with all its strength, and even pulled out its limbs and jumped up.

The giant mastiff was waiting for this opportunity. At the same time as the wild boar jumped to the highest point, the largest of the three giant mastiffs also jumped up suddenly and hit the big wild boar like a shell out of the barrel. The force of this collision was

The angle was just right, knocking the wild boar over, belly up, and landed on the deep, soft dead branches and leaves.

The other two large mastiffs waiting for an opportunity did not give the wild boar a chance to stand up. They pounced on the big wild boar and bit hard on the belly. The belly and the belly are the only cover for the wild boar. Once this place is exposed to the enemy, it will be finished. What's more,

It was a mastiff that was as fierce and swift as a lion. In less than three or four seconds, the wild boar's intestines, stomach, heart, liver, and lungs were all taken out.

The three of us saw that the wild boar was finished, so we walked slowly down the hillside. Fatty and I saw that these three giant mastiffs had such a tacit understanding and knew how to use the terrain to use tactics. We couldn't help but want to pat the mastiff's door.

head, as a reward, and greeted them over with a playful smile.

Unexpectedly, the mastiffs and hunting dogs bypassed the two of us and gathered around Yingzi. Yingzi took out dried meat and fed it to them. Seeing that their master was happy, the big dogs also wagged their tails to please him.

Being left out in the cold, the fat man and I looked at each other. I shook my head and sighed: Damn it, our hot faces are feeling the coldness of a dog.

The fat man said angrily: Old Hu, do you remember what Mr. Lu Xun said? He said dogs are gangsters. This is the virtue of dogs. Dogs look down on people and don’t recognize people with their faces. We won’t follow them.

General knowledge.

The fat man went back to the tent to get a knife, pickaxe and shotgun and returned to the valley. He helped Yingzi cut up the wild boar. I took the two big dogs with the shotgun on my back and went to find a place at the foot of the hillside to bury the boy and girl to avoid them.

He's causing trouble for us again.

Yingzi said: Brother Hu, are you hungry? Eat two bites before leaving.

I said: No, if you have a good meal, you don't have to worry about being late. I will go hungry later. Don't wait until night to bury the dead. That would be a bit embarrassing.

I let two big dogs drag the child's corpse wrapped in the coat of the Yellow Nizi Army, and dug a deep pit at the mountain pass facing the prairie. I lost my engineer shovel in the ancient tomb. It was very wasteful to dig with a pickaxe. The sun

To the west, we dug just over one meter deep. I was already so exhausted that I was sweating profusely and my stomach was pounding.

I looked at the pit, which was more than one meter deep, and thought that was enough. As for children, there was no point in burying them that deep. Their bodies were filled with mercury, and they didn’t have to worry about being bitten by insects or rats.

So I took the two children out of the military coat package and wrapped them neatly again in two military coats. They placed them side by side in the pit, put their hands together and prayed twice: Two ancient children, I am so sorry.

You don't live in a new society full of sunshine and civilization, democracy, and you don't enjoy the care of society. But this is all destined, and you don't have to be too persistent. Fate will eventually happen, and there is no need to forget it.

Caress are all about fate. After a person dies, he should be buried in peace. Those who are restless are zombies. Our conditions are limited. We don’t have coffins to place you, and we don’t have incense to worship you. I will burn more for you when I go back.

With some paper money, I hope you will go to the Western Pure Land as soon as possible and stop pestering us. We are also very busy at work and there is only this we can do for you. Those who are greedy and dissatisfied are not good children.

After that, he and the two big dogs pushed the soil into the pit, and buried the two poor boys and girls with just a few handfuls of soil. Looking back into the distance, I saw the setting sun like blood, and I was filled with emotions.

It was getting late, and Yingzi called me back from a distance. He immediately took the hunting dog back to the hillside where we camped. The fat man moved a big stone and blocked the ventilation holes where the big pig-faced bats flew out to attack the horses. The fire started.

There was roasted wild boar, a pot of soup cooked with pig offal, mushrooms and fungus. The rosin mixed with the aroma of the meat hit my face. I couldn't wait to rush over, cut off a piece of meat with a knife and stuffed it into my mouth.

After dinner, we drank the tea bricks cooked by Yingzi and discussed how to go back. We lost the horse that carried the luggage. It was really not easy to go back to Ganggangyingzi. We couldn't move the pots, bowls and tents.

The skins of the hunted animals could not be carried, and the loss was too great. Finally, Yingzi thought of a way to send two dogs back to deliver the message, and asked the people in the village to organize horse teams to dig out the Kwantung Army's fortress. There are so many good things here.

Wouldn't it be blind to move out? Besides, dogs are the best guides. They can lead the way for people in the village. Let's find a safe place to live near here first. When everyone comes, we can move enough good things together.

Go back again.

At this point, that's what happened. The fat man didn't care much about these things. He took out the two pieces of jade again and looked at them. I cursed: You are really worthless. You can't wait until dawn because of poverty. These two pieces

Don't hold on to the jade. You can look at it more than a hundred times a day. You're not afraid of letting it disappear. Let me keep it for future use.

The fat man held the jade in front of my eyes, with a look of surprise on his face: Old Hu, is this the piece we got from the ancient tomb? Look, is there anything wrong?

Moth body and chi pattern double jade 2

Ever since I got this pair of jade bis in the tomb, I never had time to take a closer look. The fat man handed them to me in a fuss: Why did the color change again? I stretched out my hand to take the two jade bis and take a closer look.

Both pieces of jade are carved into moth-like shapes, with beards and eyebrows, and are vivid. There are some strange animal patterns on the jade. This kind of animal should not exist in reality. It is fat and has a body that looks a bit like a very thin lion.

, and looks like a scaleless dragon, with several claws and a big curly tail. In short, this pattern is very strange. Maybe it is not an animal, but a decorative pattern like clouds or waves.

The craftsmanship of the pattern on the body is not as exquisite as the carving on the shape. It is just a few strokes. However, although it is rough, it still has a simple and expressive feeling. Sometimes simplicity is also a kind of beauty.

It’s really fucking weird. I remember that when I first took it out of the coffin of the ancient tomb, this pair of jade bis were dark green in color, but when I looked at it inside the Kwantung Army fortress, it was light yellow in color.

The color at this time is dark yellow, and the color has changed several times in one day. We don't know what happened. Could it be that there is a kind of color-changing jade in the world? We don't know anything about antiques. It seems that we have to go back to Beijing to find it.

The big antique gold tooth gave me a long look.

Speaking of which, this overturning operation did not go well. Not to mention the hard work along the way, the ancient tomb above the barbarian ditch was a general's tomb. Unexpectedly, there were very few burial objects inside. The only ones that might be worth some money.

It's this pair of jade stones. In order to take them out, I almost cost the lives of three people. It's really difficult to hold on to the mountains and seas, and it's hard to describe the dangers of facing the abyss. If the appraisal result is not worth much,

, then I really have to find a place to crash to death.

This incident taught me a lesson. The ancient tombs of nobles do not necessarily have a large number of valuable burial objects. You must know more about the historical and cultural background of the ancient tombs, and you must also master as much knowledge as possible about antique appreciation. In this way

Only in this way can we be targeted and avoid making mistakes.

The fat man seems very confident. He bets me that these jade bis are worth at least thirty to twenty thousand, and might even be national treasures. Then we won’t sell them to Hong Kong businessmen and Taiwanese compatriots. We will donate them directly to the Palace Museum.

When the government was happy, it rewarded us with a hundred and eighty thousand yuan as if it was just a joke. We were given an apartment in Beijing and asked to wear a big red flower and go around the country to give speeches. Then we could talk about anything sensational.

What? As soon as the lecture was finished, the female college students in the audience who had tears in their eyes ran up to present flowers and love letters.

I told you to stop dreaming, and it would be nice if I asked you to participate in the report meeting on the achievements of heroes and models instead of squatting in a kiln for the two of us. But if it is as the fat man said, you can get 30,000 to 50,000 yuan in exchange, that is already an unexpected surprise.

Now, we are running around selling audio tapes. In a year, we only make three to four thousand yuan at most. In the bad years, we basically make no money except for food, drink and accommodation.

I haven't slept for two days. After eating and drinking, I chatted with the fat man Yingzi for a few words and fell asleep. Anyway, there were hunting dogs on guard, so I didn't have to worry about wild beasts attacking me. I slept so darkly that the whole world was dark. In my dream, I returned to my hometown again.

When we arrived on the battlefield filled with gunpowder smoke, the faces of my brothers were all over the battlefield. Every face was very young. They only had faces but no bodies. These faces were bleeding constantly and slowly flew towards the sky. I

He was crying and shouting on the ground and wanted to catch them, but his hands and feet kept moving and he couldn't move.

Nothing happened at night. Those big underground bats all jumped to nowhere. There was no trace of them around. They may have been frightened by the gunfire and went to find a new cave to make their home.

I slept until noon before I woke up. Yingzi had sent three hunting dogs back to deliver the message. Each dog had a small leather pouch tied around its neck. Inside was a note written by the fat man, which stated that people in the village should bring more tools and tools.

, it’s best to order explosives and come to Yerengou to dig out the Kwantung Army’s foreign land.

After eating some wild boar meat at noon, I took my hunting dog and moved all the tent equipment near the entrance of the valley. I found a big rock in the lee of the wind and set up the tent underneath. This place is located at the junction of the forest and the grassland. I waited for the people from the village to arrive.

, it will be easy to find us.

Then Yingzi took the dog to pick wild vegetables in the forest. I dug some earth and rocks to bury a stove, put a pot on it and boiled water. We brought some flour, and Fatty made a meal of dumplings stuffed with mushrooms and wild boar.

, used to celebrate our victory in the first battle. Although there was no danger this time, at least the three of us did not have any accidents and gained something, especially the Kwantung Army fortress.

It helps a lot in life, and it's worth a drink or two.

I let the dogs hunt like this every day for more than ten days in a row. I felt that I was almost turning into a hunter in the mountains. The people from the village finally came, a total of more than 40 people, led by the party secretary and the accountant, because

The men have all gone to work in Niuxin Mountain. This time, almost all of them are women, girls and half-grown children. There are not many horses in the village, only ten in total. They heard that there are a large number of foreigners, and they are afraid that there will not be enough horses, so they bring the mules.

The donkeys were all pulled in, together with the hunting dogs brought by each family, and they entered the black wind outlet noisily.

Everyone immediately wanted to take action. I said that it was very hard for us to travel through mountains and rivers. Why don't we rest for a day and wait until we have enough strength to work again tomorrow. Besides, we can't mess around. I have been an engineering soldier, so I volunteered and assigned it to everyone.

For the task, we must use operations research to formulate plans and act step by step, and don't just mess around like a mob.

The crowd was noisy, excited, and amused. They were whispering to each other and drowning out my voice. No one could hear me clearly. In the end, the party secretary had to step in and yell: Stop making noise, stop making noise.

Yes, all listen to my eldest nephew. What he said is what I said, that is, what the organization said. We can pick up the little devil this time, and we are so ashamed of my two eldest nephews and this girl Yingzi.

Ah, whatever they say, we will deal with it.

I said it again and asked everyone to set up tents, set up pots, eat and rest, and then discussed with the secretary and accountant that without explosives, it would not be too difficult to dig out the underground fortress. We could start from the general's tomb.

The passage to the fortress is very close. With five people, it won't take half a day to dig through the collapsed tomb. However, there may be wild animals in the fortress. Everyone must be prepared in this regard. The animals living underground are afraid of fire.

More torches. What needs to be emphasized is that after entering, no one can move without permission. No weapons are allowed inside. Only supplies needed for daily life, such as military coats, Japanese big-toe shoes, blankets, motors, cables and wires, etc.

Yes, we will move as many as there are. After we have moved them, we will bury the fortress. We cannot leak the information, otherwise we will have to turn these things over to the public.

The branch secretary patted his chest and promised: My nephew, you can rest assured. As long as these people have taken things, they will be strict with their words, because everyone has suffered losses before. In the year of the earthquake, many people went to Niuxin Mountain to pick up treasures.

If we go, wouldn’t they all be punished by the Bureau of Cultural Relics as soon as they come? This time they have learned so well that no one will say anything even if they hold a gun to their forehead. Besides, our village is too secluded.
