Chapter 90: The funeral objects were robbed

Views:

"My grandpa guarded his ancestral grave respectfully all his life, but it turned out to be an empty shell with nothing. It's really ridiculous!" Tang Shi smiled with a mocking look on his face. He didn't know whether he was mocking himself or mocking his ancestor for playing tricks on people.

"No, there should be something. Look over there." Yanxu held the flashlight and turned the light in another direction. There was a raised stone platform near the edge of the curtain. The stone platform was half a person tall and very ordinary. , there was nothing on it, not even basic patterns and carvings, as if it was originally a large abandoned stone, so Tang Cai didn't pay much attention to it.

The two of them walked quickly to the stone platform and took a closer look under the light. The stone platform was blue-grey, and there were three places on it that were darker than other places, indicating that there were things originally placed on these three positions, but now It's gone. Judging from the color and shape, it should be three square boxes. They all know who took the things away.

"Chase!" Tang Shi shouted and turned around and ran towards the entrance of the cave. He had determined that the things had been taken away by Fang Shen. Since the system asked Tang Shi to enter the tomb to collect the "ancestral bone dust", then at least one of the three boxes contained the ancestor's bone dust!

"Be careful of your injuries." Yanxu warned, and sure enough, Tang Shi stopped before running two steps, grinning in pain.

Yanxu caught up with him, picked him up and looked up at the entrance of the cave to estimate whether he could jump in while holding the person in his arms.

Tang Shi moved and wanted to come down, "Use your strength to send me up. I won't be able to go up if you hold me."

Yanxu also knew that since they were all awakened people in the awakening stage, although their physical fitness had increased dozens of times, they would definitely not be able to easily jump up with someone at this height. Yanxu put the person down, using his knees and hands as cushions. , when Tang Shi stepped on it, he suddenly exerted force and threw Tang Shi up. In this way, Tang Shi didn't use his own strength and couldn't stretch the wound, so it wouldn't hurt so much.

Tang Shi jumped out of the tomb and was stunned by the sight in front of him. The tomb was surrounded by people, everyone holding poles, hoes, and even shovels in their hands. At this moment, dawn had arrived and the light was gray. It's like it's covered with a layer of white gauze, misty and looming.

The leader was a tall, thin, middle-aged man. His appearance reminded Tang Shi of "old party secretary". His image fit perfectly, with a face of a decent intellectual. Tang Shi guessed that he might be Meizhen. The current mayor. At this time, Yanxu also jumped out of the tomb. When the mayor saw that both of them were here, he raised his hand and pointed at them, shouting, "Folks! Catch these two tomb robbers! Dare to touch Mei Town." Ancestral graves, we will never forgive them! Beat them to death!"

"Kill them! Beat them to death!" The crowd was excited for a moment, waving "weapons" with a unique rustic flavor, and surrounded Tang Shi and Yanxu!

Tang Shi stood on the dome, glanced coldly, and said calmly: "Who is the tomb robber?"

The "old party secretary" pointed angrily, "I'm talking about you! You destroyed the tomb and just came out of it. Do you think everyone is blind?!"

Tang Shi gave him a cold look, "Who are you?"

The "old branch secretary" glared angrily, and a strong man following him replied: "This is the mayor of our Mei Town - Mayor Ge Nanlinge. You two, don't even think about leaving. You dare to touch Mei Town." The ancestral tomb of Zhenzhen, you are very brave!"

When the mayor heard that his life was reported, he immediately stood up with his head held high.

Ge Nanlin? Tang Shi thought for a while and had no impression of this person. There were many people with the surname Song in Meizhen, but I had never seen many people with the surname Ge. This Ge Nanlin was probably an outsider, not a local in Meizhen, but an outsider was... How do you become the mayor of Meizhen

Tang Shi didn't have time to think about these things. He needed to chase Fang Shen. The things in the big tomb were in his hands.

"I advise you to get out of the way. I have important things to do, so don't hinder me."

The mayor snorted contemptuously, "None of you can leave today! If you dare to touch the ancestral graves in Mei Town, you can't leave this place!"

The crowd surrounding them took another step forward, with anger burning in their eyes, as if the ancestral grave being dug up really belonged to their family.

Tang Shi sneered, "What a good conspiracy!"

Fang Shen obviously cooperated with the mayor inside and outside. Tang Shi and Yan Xu would kill Fang Shen's minions Awakened when they met, but it was different when facing ordinary people. People with a little bit of conscience would not embarrass ordinary people. , let alone the townspeople who are protecting the Mei family’s ancestral graves? Tang Shi was even more unable to take action.

Only then did Tang Shi suddenly understand the whole story. He said how could there be so few townspeople in the town? Maybe most of the townspeople had been moved to an area and were quietly monitored without knowing it. , since we have to dig graves secretly, we will definitely not let ordinary people come and hang out here. Of course, except for those young and strong enslaved men, those old people who were thrown outside the town probably found them digging graves and cried again. They scolded them again, for fear of disturbing the townspeople who had already been pacified and kept in the dark, so they could only throw them out, and then find a reason to get rid of the old people and the refugees outside the town, so that the ghosts could be hidden. I felt like I had completely concealed this matter.

Tang Shi couldn't figure out what the purpose of this Fang Shen wasted so much effort on? Now that you have dug it up, are you still afraid that people will know about it? Or is it that the things he took from the ancestral graves cannot be known to the outside world? Tang Shi suddenly remembered that the few awakened people who were intercepted by him and Yanxu outside the town mentioned the "organization". They all yearned for that organization and hoped to join through Fang Shen. In other words, Fang Shen was now A member of an organization.

Calculating the time, it was indeed time for organizations and teams in various places to be established at this time. Tang Shi couldn't figure out how the organization that Fang Shen joined knew about the Mei family's ancestral tombs? It was as if he knew beforehand that these three things would be inside.

There are too many doubts. The fastest way now is to catch Fang Shen as soon as possible and not let him escape with his things. Those things are left by the ancestors of the Mei family and must not be taken away by others!

"What are you waiting for? Catch them quickly!"

By this time, the mayor was impatient and urged the townspeople to catch the two "thieves".

At this stall, Tang Shi's wounds had almost recovered. He stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes cold and serious, and he glanced at everyone present. The townspeople present were shocked by his eyes, ready to move but unwilling to do so. Dare to step forward.

The mayor was angry, "What are you waiting for! Arrest people!"

The townspeople were urged to lose their judgment and wanted to step forward. Tang Shi pointed at Ge Nanlin who was standing in the crowd and said loudly: "Genan Lin, you are a foreigner, why should you care about Meizhen's affairs? Meizhen actually Choosing a foreigner as mayor really opened my eyes.”

Ge Nanlin didn't expect this young man to come up and poke his vitals. Today he came prepared. There are many awakened people lurking in the crowd, all of them are his people. As long as these two young people stay here forever, according to his and Fang Shen's exchange condition is that as long as Fang Shen can leave with the things in the tomb, Meizhen will be in his pocket. How could he let go of this opportunity to be the local emperor in such troubled times? .

Ge Nanlin was furious, "Although I am a foreigner, my contribution to Meizhen is obvious to all! What's more, I am also the highest-level awakened person in Meizhen. Only I have the ability to protect them. Without me, look Can these men, women, and children in Meizhen survive until now?"

Tang Shi pretended to applaud him and said sarcastically: "That's very well said. The highest-level awakened person? Are you honored? Are you proud? Let me ask you, what is your purpose of collecting 'decent prey'? You want me to do it?" Tell everyone or do you say it yourself?"

Ge Nanlin frowned, with a sinister look in his eyes. He glanced at the strong man beside him, and the strong man immediately said: "Our mayor is a busy man, and we don't have time to mess around with you here! Folks, don't listen to them. Nonsense, they are just stalling for time. We must work together to catch these two tomb robbers. Even if they are awakened people, don’t be afraid. We have more strength and strength. Otherwise, if the ancestor’s tomb is dug up and the ancestor is angry, there will definitely be a fall. This disaster has brought disaster to Meizhen, so we must not be lenient!"

Tang Shi said calmly: "Don't rush to take action. You know that I won't embarrass ordinary people, so you dare to bring them here so blatantly. I will only say this once, Ge Nanlin, and you must explain the whole story to the townspeople immediately. Otherwise... I! Let! You! Die!"

The citizens of Mei Town who surrounded Tang Shi and Yan Xu turned to look at the mayor in confusion. Someone asked, "Mayor, what are you hiding from us?"

Ge Nanlin's hand hanging by his side clenched quickly, and he could hardly help but want to personally deal with this reckless boy. Due to the majesty in front of the townspeople, he held back in the end, his tone was gentle and helpless, "Would you rather Do you believe a tomb robber and not believe me? I have done so many things for Meizhen just so that everyone can survive in this apocalyptic world. Now we should unite to eradicate the thief instead of listening to his slander. "

"Who is the 'outsider'?" Tang Shi sneered, "You are the outsider from Meizhen, right? Ge Nanlin."

"He is the mayor of Mei Town, not an outsider. The real outsider is you!" The strong man's voice was like a bell, very arrogant.

"Ge Nanlin, I want to see how thick-skinned you are..."

"You're so presumptuous! You're just a young boy. You keep calling the mayor by his name. Even if you don't mention his identity, he should be your elder. Is this what your family taught you? You're uneducated and have no rules!" A middle-aged uncle His beard was shaking with anger, and he pointed at Tang Shi and scolded him.

Tang Shi glanced at him, and his ridicule and ridicule subsided.

When the strong man saw it, his morale was high, and he immediately called out: "Folks, hurry up and beat this foreigner to death with sticks..."

"Who is a foreigner?" Tang Shi glanced at the strong man coolly, then looked at the middle-aged uncle who had just scolded him, changed his tone, and called out respectfully and sincerely, "Uncle De."

Song Deren was stunned and did not react for a moment.

"Do you still recognize me?" Tang Shi asked again.

The townspeople looked at Song Deren in surprise, and the latter looked at the young man in front of him carefully, obviously not recognizing it. It was already broad daylight, and the misty "white gauze"

It has disappeared, and everyone's vision is no longer obstructed.

"Are you...?" Song Deren really didn't recognize him for a moment. After all, they hadn't seen each other for so many years. However, his wife standing next to him recognized him and said hesitantly: "Why does this child look so like Miss Snow?"

As soon as Aunt De said the words, the eyes of the people around her immediately lit up, and upon closer inspection, they indeed looked like Miss Snow.

Both Ge Nanlin and the strong man were confused. They didn't know who this "Snow Girl" was. However, looking at the attitude of the townspeople, from the excitement to the hesitation now, Ge Nanlin knew that something was wrong. This "Snow Girl" "Definitely not an ordinary person, he has extraordinary significance to the citizens of Mei Town.

"Don't listen to his deception..."

"Aunt De." Tang Shi called out respectfully without giving Ge Nanlin a chance to speak, and grinned, "Is the strawberry field behind your house still there?"

Aunt De and others opened their eyes wider and wider, looking at the young man in front of them in disbelief.

"Tang Tang! Are you Tang Tang?! It's Tang Tang who's back! Uncle De, it's Tang Tang who's back!" Upon hearing this, some of the townspeople rushing to the front immediately threw down their shovels and wooden sticks and surrounded them. He walked over, pulled Tang Shi down from the dome of the tomb, and came to Song Deren happily.
