Chapter 30 Hide and Seek at the Dead Construction Site (IX)
In the original plan of Xingfuli Community, a total of nine villas were designed, five of which are independent with small courtyards, and four are townhouses.
Liu Sanquan watched Wan San, who was running with him in the bungalow villa area, enter a small bungalow with a seven-story building, turned a corner, and ran straight towards the villa's No. 7 room.
He didn't see it. Wan San, who had run into the house before, hid behind the door and wall. After he left, he followed him quietly.
The exhortation in front of everyone just now was just something Gu Chu deliberately told others. As early as in the Internet cafe, the two had already negotiated a plan.
For Wan San, this plan was a bit risky, and Gu Chu did not force him to agree, he was willing to do it himself.
Gu Chu suspected that there was a large tomb hidden under this construction site.
First of all, the relationship between Wan San and Liu Sanquan is because of antiques, and Jia Yubao and Liu Sanquan also know each other in real life, and they may also be involved in antiques trading. Antiques can be temporarily listed as the most important connection between the three.
Secondly, Gu Chu carefully analyzed the overlap between the timeline of antiques entering the market and the timeline for the construction of Xingfuli Community.
Xingfuli Community started construction before, and antiques entered the market later. Coincidentally, except for Ma Dajun, who died first, everyone else died after that batch of antiques appeared.
One of the most corroborating evidence is Guan Hu, who suddenly became rich. Where did a man who could hardly support himself get a large sum of money without a source?
In addition, Gu Chu also saw a photo in a bunch of news reports about Guan Hu, which was taken when the leader inspected the construction site before, and Guan Hu just accidentally entered the camera.
The location where the photo was taken happened to be in the villa area where the construction started later. In addition to a few leaders who came to inspect and a supervisor, there were also two people who entered by accident.
One of them is Guan Hu, and the other is the fourth foreman who died unexpectedly in Happiness.
It was too coincidental that the other's wife was the woman who was in charge of some of the workers' meals and was pierced by a steel bar that fell through her body not long ago.
In one photo, four dead people appeared.
Guan Hu, the overseer who fell into the mixer, the little foreman, and the little foreman's wife, when all the coincidences come together, it's not necessarily a coincidence.
Therefore, Gu Chu had a bold but reasonable guess.
Guan Hu and the foreman appeared in the photo with the villa area as the background at the same time. It is very likely that the two were in charge of this area at the time. According to the information found before, the high-level project was the main project promoted by Haitian Group in the early stage, so Most of the workers are concentrated in that construction site, and it is normal for the villa area to be less crowded.
It is very likely that Guan Hu and the small foreman had dug up some antiques during construction somewhere and were noticed by the supervisor in charge of them.
For the construction site, the discovery of ancient tombs with archaeological value is equivalent to cutting the project in half. Haitian Group has invested too much money in this project. Once the news breaks out, it is very likely that a series of negative chain reactions will occur. In order to keep their jobs , the supervisor chose to hide it.
Of course, the high-value antiques are also one of the reasons why several people are attracted.
It is very likely that Liu Sanquan was their helper who was responsible for excavating ancient tombs and selling stolen goods. Gu Chu observed that although Liu Sanquan always made a gesture of timidity and did not dare to look at people, his hands and feet were very flexible, and he walked and ran. They are very light, and at first glance they have been specially trained.
Moreover, his behavior of shrinking and deliberately avoiding the eyes of others is also like a cover up. Some people who have never been in the industry before, also mostly have such characteristics.
However, Gu Chu guessed that Liu Sanquan may not know all of them. Otherwise, after Guan Hu and others died one after another, he would not be so calm. It is very likely that only one of them approached Liu Sanquan. After that person died unexpectedly , Liu Sanquan didn't take this accident to heart, instead he chose to hide with the money he had earned after the wind tightened, and after a few years of silence, he dug up a batch of antiques again and sold them in another place.
The jade pendant that Wan San saw was worn by Liu Sanquan and finally appeared next to Jia Yubao's body. It is also very likely that it was dug out of that tomb.
Those things seem to have a certain restraint against ghosts. Since Liu Sanquan chose to sneak back and pick up the jade pendant, he must have guessed this. In this case, as long as he follows Liu Sanquan, he can find the location of the ancient tomb.
[Hide and go where he dare not go]
This is the third reminder in the task book. Gu Chu suspects that the ancient tomb is the place where the ghosts dare not go, but she can't guarantee that there is no danger in the ancient tomb.
After all, the reminder only said that it was a place he didn't dare to go, but it didn't say that it was a safe place. "One Hundred Thousand" always likes to set traps in the text. If you believe it too easily, you will already be in the first place. Lost half.
As for the content of the story [He is waiting for you, waiting for a long time, don't let him find you! Do not let him find you! 】
Gu Chu believes even more that there is still something in the ancient tomb, and that thing may be the source of everything.
Liu Sanquan's vigilance was too strong. When approaching Building No. 7, he walked around several times, looking back from time to time. Several times, Wan San was almost discovered by him. Later, he simply squatted and moved slowly.
He didn't dare to get too close to Liu Sanquan. Gu Chu said that this might trigger the second prompt in the task book, that two people who are too close will attract something.
Therefore, he always kept a certain distance from Liu Sanquan. After seeing that he was going in a certain direction, he stayed where he was until he could no longer see his shadow, and then followed the direction he left.
The construction site is only that big, and the terrain is not complicated. Wan San is careful along the way, and he didn't lose it while ensuring safety.
At this time, Liu Sanquan didn't know that there was a small tail behind him. After a few circles, he walked into Building No. 7 and walked straight to the basement.
After he disappeared at the gate of the villa, Wan Sancai sneaked out, followed the footprints left by the mud and cement on the ground, lightly walked, and took a few steps inside.
Liu Sanquan's footprints disappeared on the stairs down to the basement. After Wan San wrote it down, he didn't dare to wait for a long time, and he didn't dare to follow him. He followed the direction he came from, and cleaned up the mark he left all the way. Quickly returned to the place where he hid the night before.
After all this was done, Wan San seemed to be scooping up from the water, and when the cool wind blew, he couldn't help sneezing.
The dark shadow, who had been wandering near the shack, heard the sound and slowly crawled towards the bungalow area.
"This damn game, after I get out of this place, I have to take out the things underneath."
After walking into the basement, Liu Sanquan felt much more relaxed because he was very familiar with this place.
Gu Chu guessed right. The Liu family has been a tomb thief since the generation of Liu Sanquan's grandfather. Tomb robbing is purely to make quick money, as long as he can find valuable things, he will dare to go to the tomb.
It was Guan Hu who contacted Liu Sanquan unilaterally at the beginning, because the tomb they dug up was very large and there were some organs, so they did not dare to go underground casually, so they could only find Liu Sanquan, a senior with some experience.
Whenever he went to the tomb, Guan Hu would let the wind out on it. Liu Sanquan didn't know the existence of the foreman and others. Therefore, several accidents occurred at the construction site. After Guan Hu also died in a fight, Liu Sanquan didn't feel afraid.
He is even happy that there are so many stories of panic at the construction site. As long as the land is never developed and no one cares about it, he can treat the catacombs as his own treasure house. When he is short of money, he will dig underground. Something to sell.
In the basement of Building No. 7, some planks were piled up. These were used to hide people's eyes and ears. Liu Sanquan took great pains to remove those things, and a robbery hole for one person only appeared in front of him.
He took out the flashlight he took with him, took a photo inside, and jumped in with confidence. After entering the robbery hole, he did not forget to stretch out his hand and drag a cardboard box to cover the thief hole. At this time, the long and narrow passage Except for the bright light from the flashlight, no light entered.
Obviously have walked countless times, but after entering, feel a little hairy in heart. Liu Sanquan turned his head from time to time, always worried that something was following him.
The Lesser Dao that entered the tomb was not long. After about a minute or two, Liu Sanquan entered a room with a wide view.
This is a square room made of stone bricks. There are some strange rune patterns engraved on the surrounding walls, but because of the age, the color has faded, and the walls are mottled, so it is difficult to distinguish the original appearance.
At this time, there were a few clay pots scattered in the room, all of which were worthless and difficult to sell, and the rest of the more valuable ones had already been emptied by Liu Sanquan.
In addition, there are some valuable tools such as shovels, earth gunpowder and other tools used for digging tombs.
"Really!"
Liu Sanquan's heart sinks. This dog day game is too real, and he actually moves everything that exists in real life into it.
He reached into his pocket, which contained a jade pendant that was broken in half.
This jade pendant was found in this room. At that time, this jade pendant was inlaid on the wall and was integrated with one of the runes. He caught this jade pendant at a glance and buckled it from the wall. After coming down, he encountered the buyer several times who wanted to take away the pendant at a high price, but he did not let go.
Liu Sanquan picked up the jade pendant, put it in front of him, squinted in the direction of the rune and gestured.
I hadn't noticed it before, but at first glance, this strange rune looks like a bird, and this jade pendant is the bird's eye.
Liu Sanquan's whole person fell into Qian's eyes. He didn't study these things. If a slightly knowledgeable archaeological expert appeared at the scene, he could immediately identify the pattern.
This bird-like rune is actually a beast named Hua Fang, and some people call this beast Bi Fang. According to ancient legends, this kind of fierce beast often carries fire in other people's homes to make troubles, and Bi Fang is also the embodiment of disaster.
In most of the tombs, auspicious patterns are painted, representing wishes for the deceased, and praying for a happy afterlife. What kind of character would a tomb owner who engraved pictures and texts of ferocious beasts in the tomb look like?
Liu Sanquan didn't know, he put away the jade pendant, then picked up the Luoyang shovel beside him, and vigorously dug towards the half-opened hole on one side.
This tomb is huge, and he has to find other jade pendants as soon as possible to survive three nights safely.
Wan San was a little cold, probably because he was too nervous and sweated just now, and his body caught a cold.
He looked around, but couldn't find anything that could keep him warm, so he could only curl up in the corner and squeeze the few talismans that Gu Chu gave him.
There were some rustling noises outside the house, the sound left by the wind blowing the weeds.
"Wow-wow-wow-"
Wan San yawned sleepily. He stayed up all night yesterday, and didn't sleep well in the Internet cafe during the day. He felt a little tired, and his eyelids kept rolling down.
"Wow-wow-wow-"
Another gust of wind brought a stench.
Wan San regained consciousness in an instant, his ears pricked up and his body tensed up.
"Wow-wow-wow-"
Why is the sound of weeds blowing closer and closer to him.
No, it wasn't the sound of weeds being blown at all, it was more like the sound of something dragging on the ground and slowly crawling towards his direction!
