Era: Starting from cave dwellings in northern Shaanxi

Chapter 139 Borrow or return?

After listening to Sun Xiangyang's words, Geng Guohai was silent for a few seconds before he said seriously: "Captain Xiangyang, do you think that I am interested in that place because I want to dig up and steal the antiques there?"

Before Sun Xiangyang could answer, Geng Guohai continued talking.

"To tell you the truth, if it was to rob the tomb or sell it for money, I wouldn't have to spend so many years tracing the origin of the lost ancient city bit by bit. I would have plenty of opportunities to dig up it.

The reason why I did this is to make that buried history reappear in people's sight, so that people can know what kind of people lived there and what kind of past they had.

As for the Huangdi tribe, as the first tribe in China to begin its unification, its place of origin is of extraordinary significance.

But the problem now is, someone wants to destroy it, so I have to stop it. "

"Destroy there?"

Sun Xiangyang asked puzzledly.

"Yes, actually there were two pieces of this Jade Yazhang back then, one of which was in my hand, and the other one was in the hands of a former friend of mine. The two of us went there together and found this Jade Yazhang.

It's just that he was a member of the Cultural Relics Bureau back then, and just over a month ago, he changed his identity and became the person in charge of the excavation of the lost ancient city. Even this excavation was the result of his single-handed promotion.

If he were still the same person back then, I would naturally be willing to see this scene. But in recent years, through some clues, I have discovered that some of the cultural relics he was responsible for unearthing did not match at all, and were inexplicably missing. There was even a very hidden tomb. , was stolen two years ago.

And he and I are the only ones who know that tomb.

So I suspect that he had another purpose in promoting the excavation of that ancient city this time. "

Geng Guohai then began to tell the story of the cause and effect.

"You mean, that friend of yours is secretly robbing graves and selling (smuggling) those antiques and cultural relics?"

Sun Xiangyang understood a little now. No wonder the other party was so anxious.

"Yes, although there is no evidence, but with his deliberate alienation from me and those things, I can conclude that he definitely did this."

Geng Guohai said seriously.

"Then you can go to the police station to report the crime. What's the use of calling me?"

Sun Xiangyang looked at each other in confusion.

"I need to find evidence of his crime before I can go to the police, otherwise I will just alert the enemy. Once he is alert, he will hide deeper and it will be difficult to find opportunities.

As far as I know, he should have a secret stronghold hiding those cultural relics. I can even guess the general location, but if I want to find it, I am beyond my ability. So I want to ask Captain Xiangyang to come forward and help find that stronghold. "

Only then did Geng Guohai reveal his true purpose.

"Master Geng, I think you have found the wrong person."

Sun Xiangyang shook his head and said.

"Wrong person?"

"Yes, you should go directly to the police for this kind of thing, investigate him, or follow him and monitor him. You can always find clues. If you come to me, do you expect me to use the dragon-seeking ruler to find those cultural relics?"

"Can't you?"

"Master Geng, the Xunlong Ruler is looking for earth veins and certain magnetic fields, not treasure hunting. Otherwise, if the Xunlong Ruler has this ability, then I don't have to do anything else every day and just carry the Xunlong Ruler everywhere to hunt for treasures. "

Sun Xiangyang did not lie. Xunlong Ruler did not have this ability, but it did not mean that he did not have this ability. The problem was that he did not want to get involved.

Just through Geng Guohai's narration, he could think of a secret, multi-person gang.

That friend Geng Guohai was undoubtedly responsible for obtaining cultural relics or antiques, and then having other people receive them and transport them out.

This reminded him of a TV series he watched in his previous life. The villain in it also worked in the Cultural Relics Bureau, and even the gang used it to go to the village to help people cover up with cotton and secretly dig ancient tombs.

What you think of as tomb robbing involves a few ordinary old men working together to dig a hole with a Luoyang shovel, then get in and steal the antiques, sell them casually, and take the money home.

But in actual tomb robbing, especially this time, explosives are used in many cases, and guns are also in hand.

People who often dig into ancient tombs are full of evil spirits. Almost all of them are bold and vicious.

Because they also know that this is a job of wearing your head in your pants. When trading, you have to prevent being cheated. If you don't be fierce, how can you stand up?

Even if he can help Geng Guohai find the secret stronghold hiding cultural relics and capture Geng Guohai's former friend, what about the remaining people in the other party's gang?

Can you really catch them all in one go?

And once the snake survives, just wait to be retaliated.

If he could 100% capture that group of people and then shoot them all without any further trouble, it wouldn't matter if Sun Xiangyang just took a trip. He would treat it as a way to repay the other party's favor and to make some contribution.

But the question is, who can guarantee this?

Even in Sun Xiangyang's view, people like him are best at cunning rabbits and three caves. Maybe Geng Guohai's friend is just a role pushed to the front by others and is not the real mastermind behind the scenes.

And those vicious guys hiding in the dark will flee or retaliate after seeing the main figures in the gang being arrested?

Sun Xiangyang asked himself, with his current strength and perception of danger, there is a high probability that there will be no problem.

But what if the other party’s revenge is directed against his family?

Zhang Guihua, Chen Shuting, Dudu and so on.

Facing those people, they have no ability to protect themselves.

Therefore, Sun Xiangyang hesitated.

Of course, there is another reason. Does Geng Guohai really have a sincere heart?

After so many things, Sun Xiangyang will not believe whatever others say, and even rush forward when his head gets hot.

Even if he really wanted to do something, he had to make a decision before taking action and consider it thoroughly. After all, he was not alone now.

"If, if I were to give you a cultural relic, could you mark it and wait until the other party hides it in that secret stronghold before you find it?"

Geng Guohai gritted his teeth and said.

"No."

Sun Xiangyang said without hesitation.

The other party is not giving up yet.

"Master Geng, I can't do anything about this matter, but I can give you a suggestion. The excavation of the ancient city you mentioned this time is a good opportunity. You can contact the police and monitor it. I believe that with the If cultural relics are unearthed, the other party will definitely take action."

Hearing Sun Xiangyang's words, Geng Guohai shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Why don't I know this is an opportunity? But that ancient city is too important. The other party's real purpose is the unearthed cultural relics. Naturally, they will not pay too much attention to the original ancient city, and it will even be destroyed. If they really want to By that time, even if you catch him and shoot him, it will be too late."

"Otherwise, you can find a newspaper and write about the things you discovered, especially your judgment, about the origin of the Yellow Emperor tribe, etc. The more exaggerated the better.

When they are all sent out, I believe it will definitely cause a big stir.

When more people pay attention to that place, your friend will have to think carefully even if he wants to destroy the ancient city.

Maybe it will interest the historical experts above, and then go there and participate in it personally.

In this way, at least your original intention of protecting the ancient city can be achieved. "

Sun Xiangyang thought for a while and said.

Since it cannot be stopped, let more people participate.

If it were an ordinary ancient tomb, it would definitely not attract much attention, but according to Geng Guohai, it was the origin of the Yellow Emperor tribe, the earliest ancient city. Maybe the Yellow Emperor became the leader of the tribe there and then led the tribe. , began the road to unification.

The meaning represented here is different.

Of course, in this way, if Geng Guohai had some selfish motives, they would be destroyed.

"Yes, why didn't I think of this idea? Captain Xiangyang, thank you, I really appreciate you."

Geng Guohai said excitedly.

He had only thought about seizing the other party's handle and arresting the other party to prevent the other party's destruction, but he had forgotten that there were other ways to protect the ancient city.

Now the other party has the final say, but if he makes his discovery public, it will not be the other party's decision. In this way, it can be considered as indirectly protecting the ancient city.

"Master Geng, I advise you not to be happy too early."

At this time, Sun Xiangyang poured cold water on him.

"what?"

Geng Guohai looked at Sun Xiangyang in confusion.

"You can certainly achieve your goal by doing this, but it will also make the other person hate you. Once your friend knows that you did it, do you think he will guess that you are suspicious of him?

And if you destroy their plot, will they retaliate against you?

So I suggest you post anonymously and even try not to expose yourself. "

Sun Xiangyang advised tactfully.

"Since I dare to stand up and stop it, I am not afraid of retaliation."

Geng Guohai stood up and said firmly.

At the same time, it also refreshed Sun Xiangyang's impression of him.

After all, at the beginning, Geng Guohai was a bit clumsy and obsessed with power when he was running for that person in the club. It can be said that it is completely opposite to his current behavior.

"Captain Xiangyang, I have one last request. I hope you can agree."

"You said."

"I still have some things at home, some of which were passed down from my ancestors, and some of which I bought with my own money over the years. I hope you can save them for me. If I am fine, I will naturally take them away in the future. If anything happens to me, In case of accident, or death, you can keep these things."

Geng Guohai said solemnly.

Obviously, he also knew the danger of doing this, but decided to do it anyway.

"Master Geng, if you are really worried, you can hide it first and then tell your family."

Sun Xiangyang advised.

"Family? I'm afraid Captain Xiangyang doesn't know my situation, right? I'm all alone, how can I have any family? Besides, I only believe in you."

Geng Guohai smiled silently.

"You really decided to do this?"

Sun Xiangyang was silent for a few seconds and asked.

"Yes, to be hypocritical, if you may not believe it, I actually don't have much pursuit. I have studied that ancient city for half my life. It can be said that all my efforts have been poured into it and I have an obsession. So no matter what , I won’t let anyone destroy it.”

Geng Guohai said seriously.

"Okay, I'll keep it for you until you come back to pick it up."

After Sun Xiangyang finished speaking, he stood up and took out a piece of Five Emperors' money and handed it to the other party.

"Just think of this as a deposit. I'll lend it to you first, and then return it to me when you come back to get it."

"This is?"

After Geng Guohai took it, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Five Emperors' Money, I made it up myself, just use it as a talisman. Although it's not very useful, at least it will give you peace of mind."

Sun Xiangyang said casually.

"Okay, this is a good thing, so I will be disrespected."

There is no doubt that Geng Guohai also has a sharp eye. He can see the extraordinary value of this piece of Five Emperors' Money and immediately put it away.

"What I lent to you must be returned."

Sun Xiangyang looked at his actions and couldn't help but said.

Although he knitted a few more, these things are still rare and are not given away casually.

"I understand, I understand. That's it for today. I'll leave first and bring the things back later."

After saying that, Geng Guohai turned around and left. Judging from his pace, it seemed as if something was chasing him behind him.

Watching Geng Guohai leave, Sun Xiangyang was a little suspicious. He wouldn't really refuse to pay it back, would he?

Unless he doesn't even plan to ask for the things that are being pressured on him in the future.

is it possible?

As for taking the money from the Five Emperors and then regretting it, it is definitely impossible not to send the things.

Sun Xiangyang believed that he would not misjudge the person on this point.

Shaking his head, Sun Xiangyang ignored the matter.

Geng Guohai did not appear on the second day. It was almost dark on the third day when he was seen quietly arriving at Sun Xiangyang's house carrying a pole.

Then, he put down the carrying pole, said to Sun Xiangyang that no one knew he had brought the things here, and left quickly in the dark.

It's like a joint.

Looking at Geng Guohai's resolute figure as he left, Sun Xiangyang suddenly felt that maybe he should do something.

Even if he doesn't come forward, it doesn't mean there is no other way.

His initial resistance was more due to Geng Guohai's previous attitude.

But now, Geng Guohai has undoubtedly proved his determination.

And in that ancient city, someone has to be responsible for excavating it, right?

If Geng Guohai is really sincere and has been investigating for so many years, wouldn't he be a good candidate?

When it is fully revealed to the world in the future, more people will learn about that unknown history.

After all, it was the Yellow Emperor's tribe.

It’s the Yellow Emperor with Chi You!

"Who came just now? What is this?"

As soon as Geng Guohai left, Zhang Guihua came out of the house, looked at the things in the yard, and asked curiously.

"A friend gave me something, and I helped keep it for a while."

Sun Xiangyang said, picked up two heavy packages and returned to the back room, and then kicked out Dudu, who was doing homework with a frown on his face.

When Chen Shuting saw this, she followed him out without saying a word.

Seeing this scene, Sun Xiangyang didn't stop her.

He didn't even mean to open it. He just moved away the debris in the cave, placed the things in the innermost corner, then carefully covered the things, and piled the debris again.

In this way, even if Dudu is curious, he can't touch it at all.

As for Chen Shuting, she took the initiative to avoid her now, making it even less likely to be curious.

In fact, even Sun Xiangyang didn't plan to see it, so he kept it temporarily.

The next afternoon, the old party secretary happily found Sun Xiangyang. As soon as they met, he started shouting.

"Xiang Yang, it's done!"
