Chapter 146: Nailed stakes, tombs on tombs

The young man said: "My father seems to have told me that he has been robbing graves over the years, and that bead is the wealth he has accumulated over the years.

When he left home, it was also to find the bead..."

I'm confused. Tomb robbing is not a way to get rich, but it is still easy for people to live a well-off life. How could his father be so miserable after working outside for so many years? I saved up a pearl that was not very beautiful.

I think that bead must be priceless.

I asked the young man if he could take the bead and go outside to find someone to identify it. I am not familiar with the tomb robbing business, and I think the beads may have something to do with it.

The young man hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "I don't know what to do. If you think that thing will work, just take it away! Before leaving, I hope you can put my father's body on a peach wood stake. Nailed, this was his last wish..."

I patted his shoulder and told him not to be too sad. It was purely feudal superstition to say that a corpse would never be reincarnated after being nailed to a peach wood stake.

The young man sighed: "I hope so!"

In fact, after careful thinking and combined with the complex geographical environment here, I have basically figured out the reason why the young father asked him to do this.

Last time, the man in the T-shirt told me about many Feng Shui tactics, one of which was called: ‘Nail the stakes, and the tomb will press the tomb’.

To nail a body to a stake is to nail the corpse with peach wood stakes. The so-called tomb under tomb means that there is a tomb under the tomb.

The young man's father wants to build the tomb at the top of the mountain, which means that almost all the tombs will be weighed down by his tomb, which naturally creates endless resentment!

And this overwhelming resentment is all directed at the young father.

In addition, he was nailed to a peach wood stake and his soul could not be reincarnated, so the torture he suffered can be imagined...

Unless he had masochistic tendencies, I really don't understand why he would leave such a suicide note and ruin his body.

The first thing we did after returning home was to go to the graveyard. We have already prepared the peach wood stakes. According to the young man's wishes, we will nail the father up first to prevent his father's body from coming down the mountain to disturb the people during this period.

After we bring the beads and find a solution, we can then give him salvation to his father.

But when we returned to the village, we found that all the villagers gathered around the boy's door.

I suddenly became nervous. Could it be that the body ran down the mountain again?

The young man burst into tears and rushed into the crowd.

But after rushing in, he was stunned and asked the villagers in a trembling voice what was going on?

I knew that the situation must be different from what we imagined, so I quickly squeezed into the crowd.

As a result, the scene at the door of the young man's house made me stunned!

Someone died in front of his house, and they were two strangers.

The two strangers, dressed in coarse cloth, lay in a pool of scarlet blood. His face was ferocious, his mouth was open, and there were several holes in his neck. Blood was flowing down his neck.

The young man stepped aside tremblingly and asked the villagers who these two people were and why they died in front of his house.

A dark-skinned villager asked: "My child, don't you know these two people?"

The young man immediately shook his head: "I don't know him. Where can I meet him?"

The villagers said thoughtfully: "These two people came down from the mountain. We heard the screams and hurriedly came out to take a look. It turned out that these two people were stumbling down the mountain, and there was a black figure behind them. I'm chasing him, but the distance is too far and I can't tell whether it's your father I'm chasing."

"But we saw the two of them holding the luminous pearl in their hands. After the black shadow snatched the pearl away, he turned and left. And these two people died crookedly at the door of your house..."

"Are they here to steal beads?" The young man was shocked.

The villager nodded: "Probably so, otherwise why would you be here in the middle of the night?"

"Hmph!" the young man cursed: "They deserve their lives. Are they allowed to touch those beads?"

I suddenly squatted down and gently took off the clothes of a corpse.

Li Mazi immediately came over and asked, "Brother Zhang, what are you doing?"

I took a deep breath: "Look what this is..."

After saying that, I pulled something from the body's waist and threw it in front of Li Mazi.

It was a metal tool, either long or short, with a head in the shape of a curled spatula. I could tell at a glance that this was a Luoyang shovel.

Li Mazi also recognized it and was shocked: "Luoyang shovel? Is this grandson a tomb robber?"

"Yes!" I said decisively: "I seem to understand what all this is about."

The young man said excitedly: "Brother, what is going on? Please tell me in detail."

I smiled mysteriously: "The secret must not be leaked. Folks, please leave now! We will handle the matter here well and nothing like this will happen again in the future."

The villagers were still worried and asked me who I was and why I dared to guarantee it.

I said that I was invited by the young man to deal with these mysterious matters. Give me a week to ensure that they are resolved satisfactorily.

The villagers all wanted to watch the fun and refused to leave. It wasn't until I said that the smell of living people here was too strong that it might cause corpses to mutate that the villagers left in a hurry.

After the villagers left, the boy immediately closed the door and asked me tremblingly if I wanted to call the police? People are dead. If such a big thing is not handled properly, everyone will go to jail.

I said it was natural to call the police, but now was not the time.

The most urgent task is to first find out why the two deceased people risked their lives to snatch this bead?

I feel that the two deceased people seemed to know the boy's father, and that bead would also be of great use to them as tomb robbers.

It's a pity that the two of them are already dead, and it is simply impossible to ask questions from them.

We carefully inspected the body again, and finally found several photos from the body. In the photo was a group photo of three people. The two people on the left and right were the two deceased people, and the one standing in the middle was suddenly the boy's father!

Behind them was a mountain, with a newly dug cave at its foot.

This photo should have been taken at the tomb robbing scene.

The boy's father did indeed know the two deceased people, and judging from their arm-in-arm movements, they must have had a good relationship.

So I showed the photo to the boy.

The young man looked at his father in the photo and cried silently.

Several people were covered in mud, and there were dried steamed buns and old pickles on the ground. It was obvious that their lives were very difficult.

But after watching it for a while, the boy suddenly wiped away his tears and stared at the photo more carefully.

I subconsciously felt that the young man seemed to have seen something fishy in the photo, so I immediately asked him what was wrong.

The young man said tremblingly: "Brother, look inside that thief's cave. What is it?"

"Um?"

I frowned and immediately took the photo and looked where the boy pointed.

Looking at it like this, I couldn't help but tremble all over with fear.
