The years when I was Captain Jin

Chapter 1
Anyone familiar with history knows that 1960 was the most catastrophic year in Chinese history.

The Yellow River burst into rare floods, and almost all the places it passed through its nine bends and eighteen bends turned into Zeguo.

In Shangcai County, where the floods were the worst, there were even tragedies of cannibalism, but after the flood subsided, some bronze lumps appeared unexpectedly.

At first, no one cared, but since a rural teacher picked a lump and went to the city to exchange a lot of money, the eyes of the villagers immediately became hot.

They tied up the village teacher and after a frightened meal, they finally found out that those bronze bumps were not tattered, but ancient bronzes, which were worth a lot of money outside.

And since the bronze wares were washed out by the flood, there must be many ancient tombs near Shangcai County!

As a result, local people joined the ranks of tomb robbers one after another. During that time, no matter it was day or evening, every household was busy carrying hoes, and some people even built bungalows because of this.

The big commotion here naturally attracted many antique dealers from other places, and my grandfather Li Weiguo was one of them.

At that time, it was the golden age of speculation in antiques. Just like stock speculation today, my grandfather saw the business opportunity, and he sold his property and moved to Shangcai County, where he set up a long-term collection of local goods.

Relying on collecting native goods from the villagers and selling them to foreigners at high prices, he doubled his family property more than ten times in just one month.

However, the peaceful days were quickly broken. One night after ten o'clock, a skinny old farmer came to the stall, wearing a dirty jacket with mud on his feet.

He was holding a pickle jar firmly in his arms, and he looked back after walking a few steps, as if he was a thief.

My grandfather knew this man as Wang Shoujiao, a farmer in Shangcai County, so he smiled and said, "Old man Wang, could it be that the emperor used the pot you are holding? Even the emperor used it, and our old Li is not without it." seen."

But Wang Choujiao sat nervously on the threshold: "I want to sell this thing, it costs 1000 yuan, even if it's less."

My grandfather was taken aback at the time. Based on the price of their collection of local goods, 100 yuan is a great thing. After all, the average salary in the 60s was only [-] yuan. Could it be that a thousand oceans is a national treasure?

He immediately asked Wang Skujiao to put the things on the table, so that he could open his eyes.

Wang Choujiao seemed a little worried, but when he thought of money, he finally gritted his teeth and poured out the contents of the jar.

They were three rectangular copper coins covered with green rust, and there seemed to be words on them.

My grandfather took a soft-bristled brush and wiped the copper coin a few times, and finally recognized the writing on it.

Fight against Qin and hate Qin!
Seeing these four words, my grandfather blushed and almost bit off his tongue.But he is a businessman after all, so he immediately pretended to be uninterested and pushed the money away: "Old man Wang, you should go to another shop to have a look! This is just an ordinary copper coin, the collection value is not high, even ghosts don't want it."

When Wang Choujiao heard that this thing was worthless, he couldn't stand it, grabbed my grandfather's clothes, and said that my grandfather wanted to lie to his treasure.

Wang Shoujiao is usually honest and honest, but today's abnormal behavior immediately aroused my grandfather's curiosity, so he said: "Don't get excited, I'll show you something and you will understand."

My grandfather turned around and went to the back room, took out a few coins and put them on the table, which looked almost the same as Wang Shoujiao's copper coins.

My grandfather smiled bitterly and said, "Old man Wang, I have received a lot of these copper coins, and now I keep them in my hand and can't sell them. You come to ask me for a thousand oceans, aren't you joking?"

Wang Shoujiao grabbed those copper coins in disbelief, and seeing that they were exactly the same, he hugged my grandpa's thigh and started crying: "Son, I'm sorry for you, daddy, because of this scumbag, I actually took you His life is in..."

It turns out that with more and more people digging treasures in Shangcai County, the bronze bumps washed out by the flood have long since disappeared, but Wang Shoujiao's family is still poor. idea.

The back mountain of Wang Shoujiao's house is the oldest place in Shangcai County. Because there are many wild animals, no villagers dare to go up it.Wang Choujiao thought he could dig some treasures, but he didn't expect his son to sink into the pit, and when he was dying, he grabbed a handful of copper coins.

However, this copper coin is still a waste.

My grandfather deliberately comforted me: "Old man Wang, you are so confused! There are frequent accidents on that mountain. Didn't several folks die? And there are only a few small pits of rich and powerful people on the mountain at most. Dig out what treasure."

"It's all my fault. I lost my mind and went crazy to play in Shannan. My son is gone, and my money is gone." Wang Shou huddled in a corner and cried in a mess.

My grandfather secretly remembered the word Shannan in his heart, then took out a jar of wine, and talked with Wang Shoujiao for most of the night, getting everything out of his mouth.

Seeing that Wang Choujiao was quite pitiful, my grandfather gave him 100 yuan to support him in the elderly, and thanked Wang Choujiao for being too drunk, but my grandfather forced him out of the stall.

As soon as Wang Shoujiao was sent away, my grandfather closed all the doors and windows in a panic. After doing these things, the clothes all over his body were drenched in cold sweat!

How did Wang Choujiao know that my grandfather was a calligraphy fan since he was a child, so when he saw the handwriting on the copper coins, he was 100% sure that it was the handwriting of Li Si, the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty during the Warring States Period.

Li Si is quite famous in history!
He was born in the warring states of the warring states. He was a politician at that time, and he was extremely clever. He assisted Qin Shihuang to establish the Qin Dynasty, but he was also very smart. In order to consolidate the rule of the Qin Dynasty, he burned books and buried scholars. He suggested that Qin Shihuang do it.After Qin Shihuang's death, Li Si was ransacked and beheaded by Qin II because of his high position and power, and even his body was fed to dogs.

Of course, if this is the case, my grandfather would not be so excited. The main reason is that he received a rubbing copy of the Warring States Period a few years ago, which recorded a major historical secret!
The general idea is that Qin Shihuang entrusted a treasure to Li Si before his death, and warned Li Si not to let third people know about it, including his son, and to bury the treasure with him after his death.However, Li Si did not follow Qin Shihuang's instructions, but sealed the treasure in a huge green goat bottle and hid it himself.

So far, my grandfather didn't take it seriously, but as copper coins were unearthed in Shangcai County one after another, my grandfather's blood boiled!
He guessed that the back mountain of Wang Shoujiao's house was probably Li Si's tomb. Although Li Si was executed by Emperor Qin II at that time, how could such a clever prime minister not leave a way out for himself?
If Li Si's tomb is found and the Qingyang bottle recorded in the rubbings of the Warring States period is dug out, then he will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life.

Although there are rules in the world of tomb robbers, people who don't know how to do it can't go to the tomb, but my grandfather thought about it all day and night, and finally greed defeated reason.He spent a lot of money to find a group of sturdy men near Shangcai County. All of these people had worked in the soil to make a living, and many of them were murderers who came here from home.

After several days of preparation, a group of people brought their equipment and came to the back mountain mentioned by Wang Shuijiao to start acupuncture.

'Acupoint acupuncture', this is not a joke, it is the real skill of Tu Fuzi, you need to use Luoyang shovel in various places, distinguish the smell from the excavated soil, and then accurately locate the point of the tomb.Experienced Tufuzi are often the golden hands, and they can directly click to the main tomb, avoiding the traps in the many tombs.

But I have been busy for two days and made seven or eight robbery holes, but I didn't get anything.

At this time, someone in the team spoke. He said that the information you said, Lao Li, is wrong. Shannan is very sunny. If it is a large tomb, it cannot be located here. Let’s go to the creek in the north of the mountain to have a look. It's more likely in that area, the place is very cloudy.

The person who spoke was called Nan Paizi. His background was very mysterious, but he was proficient in various means. He once robbed a Song Dynasty general's tomb single-handedly. Some people said that he was the serious Captain Mojin.

When my grandfather heard that, he almost took a knife to chop off Wang Skunk's feet. Unexpectedly, the old man was so shrewd that he even put himself on the line.

Everyone went to the north of the mountain in the dark, and Nan Paizi pointed to a few places to put down the shovel.

Suddenly, after a man went down with a shovel, there was something wrong with the sound, as if he had touched something hard.

Nan Paozi asked him to quickly pull up Luoyang with a shovel. The soil hooked by the shovel exuded a disgusting, disgusting smell, and the soil was black. The most terrifying thing was that Nan Paozi grabbed the handful of soil When I pinched it hard, a few drops of blood dripped out!
