The security work of the excavation of Cao Cao's tomb was not bad, and the cleaning and control of the robbery holes were done very meticulously, but every secret was sparse.
This robbery hole was drilled from the back of the earth slope, and the hole was well concealed, making it difficult to detect. The robbery hole itself is like a hand poking into the ground, the five fingers are staggered, the forked passages extend everywhere, and there is a distance of more than one meter left in all of them, waiting for the opportunity.
This allowed it to escape successive rounds of cleaning and troubleshooting.
The archaeological team's excavations so far have given them a clear goal, and this blackout night is the opportunity they have been waiting for.
The sight in the night was not very good, in the silence and bleakness, Wu Yuewei walked a little closer unconsciously.
In order to avoid embarrassment, she took the initiative to find a topic and said: "The emerald bead that was unearthed yesterday morning is very beautiful. After we put it on the Internet, the response was very enthusiastic. Some people said that it should have been in Cao Cao's mouth when he was buried. It's worth tens of millions."
The emerald beads Wu Yuewei mentioned had been unearthed in her previous life, so Xu Tingsheng wasn't too interested, "Tens of millions. If this happens, the security will have to be strengthened."
"Um."
So the conversation ended, and the two walked in silence for a few minutes.
"Snapped."
Suddenly, a hand, holding a sword, came out from the ground and hit the ground, only two or three meters away from the feet of the two of them, among a pile of withered weeds.
The two jumped away, but luckily they swallowed back their exclamations in time. Wu Yuewei grabbed Xu Tingsheng's clothes, and Xu Tingsheng pulled her behind him. He took a closer look and saw that there were many stone plaques and other things beside the hole extending from the ground.
In fact, if it wasn't such a coincidence, the person on the other side happened to be climbing up, even if they walked by, they might not notice it.
But it was so unlucky—they met grave robbers, and they definitely weren't the positive ones in the novel.
Xu Tingsheng is not used to being a hero, he knew that the most important thing for him and Wu Yuewei to do right now was not to jump forward bravely, but to run. Run, escape back, and then call people to surround... Those security personnel with guns are not vegetarians.
The problem is that it seems too late. The distance of about 200 meters is a barren slope with a wide view. They shouted that the tomb robbers must have appeared before the security personnel. They ran, at least silently, for a distance of more than 50 meters...
As for the person on the other side, the Mediterranean Sea above his head has been exposed. He seems to be climbing up, but the hole is narrow and difficult...
"At a time like this, you must not be like the women in novels and TV shows who are twitching and coquettish." Xu Tingsheng whispered quickly in Wu Yuewei's ear.
"En." Wu Yuewei nodded, she was a woman with brains anyway.
"Listen to me, you run. Call when you are far enough away."
After Xu Tingsheng finished speaking, he pushed Wu Yuewei on the back, and he quickly jumped forward to the side of the robber's hole.
There was no stone, so Xu Tingsheng picked up a stone tablet at hand and patted it on the bald man...
Like whack-a-mole, I patted him down.
It's a pity that the stone tablet is too light, and the lethality is not enough...
"Ouch, fuck!" The other party cried out in pain.
Someone below asked, "What's wrong?"
There was more than one person on the other side, and Xu Tingsheng couldn't care less about it, he threw everything into the robbery hole with his arms around...
sandy soil.
stone plaque.
There are still a few stone plaques left, Xu Tingsheng thinks he can hold on for a while. He wanted to use that sword, but it's not that no iron swords have been dug out since the excavation work, but they were all corroded to a bad shape, let alone cutting people, if they were not careful, they would probably be crushed to pieces.
It's a long story, but the time is only a few seconds, Xu Tingsheng is holding up another stone tablet and is about to smash it down...
A long gun barrel protruded and pressed against his chest.
The man was still climbing up, "If you dare to move, I will shoot."
The so-called gun should look like an imitation rifle, the barrel and the body of the gun are very inconsistent, and there are a few circles of black tape wrapped in some places... But, damn it... It's also a gun!
Xu Tingsheng didn't dare to move.
The other party's arm propped up on the edge of the robbery hole, and half of his body protruded out with a head of blood.
Xu Tingsheng didn't dare to look back to see if Wu Yuewei had run far enough, he could only hope that the other party didn't see it.
"Pfft..." There was a sound in the distance.
"It's over." Xu Tingsheng sighed.
Unexpectedly, Wu Yuewei fell in the dark.
"The one in front, come back, or I'll kill him." The man yelled as he moved to the ground.
In fact, under the cover of the night, Wu Yuewei had enough distance to continue running, but Xu Tingsheng knew that she would definitely come back...
The gun was still on Xu Tingsheng's chest, Wu Yuewei was standing beside him, opposite was a man about fifty years old, he was holding a gun, his expression was a little panicked.
People who have never been pointed at by a gun will never know the feeling. Xu Tingsheng broke out in cold sweat, his body trembled slightly, took a deep breath, and tried to keep his mind clear.
"Calm down, don't be impulsive," Xu Tingsheng said slowly, "You don't need to shoot, we don't know you, the sky is too dark, and your appearance is not clear enough. So, you don't need to silence us. You can tie us up Get up, shut your mouth, grab something and run... The people below will find us at least at dawn, and you have enough time to escape. And if you shoot, the people below will hear you right away and come after us. There is no need for us to die together."
Xu Tingsheng helped the other party to analyze, hoping that the other party would listen to it.
He is not a master of martial arts. He has learned a few times from Zhong Wusheng. If he fights with his bare hands, it may be no problem to hit the person opposite him, but the opponent has a gun in his hand... Therefore, Xu Tingsheng has no idea of being a hero at all. Throw it away, he just wants to save his and Wu Yuewei's lives.
"Besides, if you shoot, it's homicide, which is infinitely more serious than grave robbery..."
Xu Tingsheng was halfway through the second sentence, and thought, "It's over."
The second person was about forty years old. He came out of the hole, and the logic that Xu Tingsheng had just established for him... no longer existed. Because the second person was a worker hired locally before the excavation of the construction site. Because of his good performance, he stayed.
His surname seems to be Liang, it doesn't matter, the important thing is that he knows Xu Tingsheng and Wu Yuewei, and in turn, Xu Tingsheng and Wu Yuewei also know him, and even greeted him.
So, now...the other side has the need to silence them.
"They know me, they have to kill me..." Sure enough, the man surnamed Liang said immediately after identifying it.
"Okay." The one with the gun heard and was about to shoot.
Wu Yuewei screamed and rushed towards Xu Tingsheng.
"Don't shoot, you're stupid..." The surname Liang slapped his head, which was already covered in blood. His meaning was obvious. If you shoot, you will be discovered, and you can use other methods to silence him.
Xu Tingsheng was also very aware of this.
Taking advantage of the mental back and forth of the man holding the gun, Xu Tingsheng moved sideways to avoid the muzzle of the gun, held the barrel of the gun with one hand, and kicked the opponent's rib at the same time...
The gun was in his hand.
"Brother Liang, and this uncle, please don't move around and stand back. I almost died just now, and I am easily impulsive..." Xu Tingsheng pointed a gun at them, and at the same time kicked the sword on the ground to Wu Yuewei, saying: " Take it, you go back and call someone."
Wu Yuewei almost collapsed just now, but now she let out a sigh of relief, calmly and decisively picked up the sword on the ground and ran away.
…
Under the robbery hole, Hui Si jumped, what the hell happened? Instead, pull me up... You guys don't plan to take it all by yourself, do you
After muttering a few times, he found a few things to step on, and finally climbed into the robbery hole...
…
In front of Xu Tingsheng, the man surnamed Liang took a few steps to the side. Xu Tingsheng then turned his gun and said to him, "Brother Liang, you'd better not move. It's just an attempted tomb robbery. It won't be a serious sentence. There's no need to go all out... "
"I know, but I just didn't expect such unlucky luck, and the big boss is actually so good at it."
"luck."
Xu Tingsheng simply responded that he felt something was wrong because the other party was too calm. However, I can't figure out where the problem is...
Xu Tingsheng's mistake was that when he heard two voices just now, he subconsciously believed that the other party was two people without thinking about it, and these two people were now being pointed at by him.
But the man surnamed Liang was indeed very calm. The purpose of the few steps he moved just now was to lead Xu Tingsheng to move, so that his back was facing the robbery cave.
There was a brief stalemate.
Xu Tingsheng reckoned that Wu Yuewei should have brought someone over here. At this moment, it was already too late when he heard the voice behind him. The third person in the robbery cave, Hui Si, threw Xu Tingsheng to the ground from behind.
The other three embraced together...
The gun was in the opponent's hand again, but the muzzle was still pressed against Xu Tingsheng's chest, where his heart was.
This time it was Hui Si who took the gun.
Xu Tingsheng was made to cry by himself, but apart from his rebirth status, he was just an ordinary person after all.
Human voices and footsteps have already begun to appear in the distance, and the three people on the opposite side looked flustered.
The bald man picked up a few things and hugged them, looking at the one surnamed Liang.
Hui Si also turned around and said, "Should I kill this one and run?"
Trying to calm himself down, Xu Tingsheng spoke again: "Brother Liang, one person has already escaped, and the possibility of silence does not exist anymore. You don't need to kill me again... homicide and tomb robbery..."
His logic was completely correct, since Wu Yuewei had already escaped to call for someone, the other party should hurry up and run away, moreover, they shouldn't kill people, so as not to aggravate the consequences in case of being arrested.
Judging from that brother Liang's performance just now, he should have enough brains and calmness to understand Xu Tingsheng's logic.
But Xu Tingsheng actually made a big mistake - in this world, there are many people who are completely illogical, let alone thinking.
Hui Si is this kind of person... the kind of idiot who wants to take a fake rifle and fight with the security guards and then kill him.
Without waiting for an answer, he pulled the trigger directly.
A replica rifle sounds slightly different from the real gun.
"puff."
The gun rang, and Xu Tingsheng fell backwards to the ground.
