The situation in reality is always different from what I imagined. In the silent crowd at the darkest hour of the dawn, a few familiar people silently obstruct my path.

"Little Zheng, what are you doing here?" The person standing in front of me is called Sun Zhen, he is the number one figure in the Weicheng, usually does good deeds, has a good name, and will often help some poor families, thus his reputation is always good, and he is honored as the Great Benefactor.

Sun Zhen had a large background, but he was an easygoing person. He usually liked to collect these old things, and he also had a certain reputation in this region, so he was also one of the people who maintained order in the Ghost Market.

More importantly, he would often visit the Zheng Family when there was nothing to worry about. He hoped to get some good stuff from them. In his words, he trusted my judgement. He was young, but in this aspect, his knowledge was inferior to many old guys.

I saw that Sun Zhen had arrived, so I knew that my plans for today would probably fail. If it was someone who didn't have any connections, I would still be able to cause a ruckus and get some stuff, but the person who came was Sun Zhen, so no matter what, I have to give him face. We are all in Weicheng, who knows when this great god will be useful to us?

"Yo!" "Brother Sun is here today too, I came to visit since I have nothing to do. It has been a long time since someone asked me to come here and pick things. If I didn't come today, I'm afraid I would have been forgotten by the people in Java." Sun Zhen and I smiled, at the same time, we told him not to resent the rule that I set down at that time, and that if he were to say that I was bad, it would be you guys who would be bad first. The promise was already fed to the dogs?

When the few people who came with Sun Zhen heard my words, they all laughed embarrassedly. Someone explained, "Don't say it like that, the Zheng brothers. If there really is one, would I be able to forget about you? "

"Isn't it?" I smiled and looked at the fatty standing on Sun Zhen's left, and said with a hint of ridicule: "Shopkeeper Zhou, this is such a coincidence, I only knew that a new batch arrived four days ago, but no one came to notify me. Can you explain what's going on? I remember you had a share of the people who came to persuade me. "

"Ugh …" This... "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding …" When Zhou Quan heard this, he started to sweat profusely. Like me, he runs an antique shop, but he's in the south of the city, and I'm in the north, so I'm usually too far away to affect each other's business.

Sun Zhen, on the other hand, was calm and composed. He looked at the few people who came with him with slight anger, and then said to me in a low voice: "Little Zheng, we were in the wrong with this matter. Brother Sun spoke on behalf of them in apologizing to you. Let's go outside and chat, it's not convenient to stay here after all. " People came and went, and many of them shot angry looks at us.

"Brother Sun, I know this has nothing to do with you. How can I not know who you are?" "Then let's go out first." After exchanging a few words of courtesy with Sun Zhen, I didn't even look at the others. These people were just like that. The more polite you were to them, the more they would think that you were easy to bully. I'm even thinking of taking a walk around these guys' shops when the sun is up and sweeping through their things.

After exiting the Ghost Market, there was a makeshift small tent about 10 metres away. The few people who were here specially to maintain order everyday in the Ghost Market were resting.

The things in the tent were not complicated. A round table, a few square stools, teapots, teacups and other things were brought along. This tent was nothing more than a shelter from the rain and wind.

After exchanging greetings in the tent, Sun Zhen assured me over and over again that similar things wouldn't happen again, so I felt assured. They all looked at Sun Zhen's attitude. Since he said that, the rest of them would definitely not have any other opinions.

I believe in Sun Zhen. Everyone can see through his character that way, he wouldn't easily lose his reputation just because of this little advantage. Besides, the priority given to me to choose items from underground does not mean that I will be given them for free, and there will not even be any preferential treatment. What price it was, it was what price it was. They didn't want to discount me, and I didn't want to owe them anything. One had to know that it was only human emotions that were most difficult to repay a debt of thousands of dollars.

Actually, the so-called priority was just to get something that he liked. As for getting lucky in this aspect? At that time, there would definitely be more than one expert on the scene who would be able to identify those items. The chances of them being found were very slim.

"How about this, you don't need to keep this in your mind anymore, I'll tell you another piece of inside news, we'll write off any accounts that I didn't inform you about the past few times." Sun Zhen was not at ease, after hesitating for a while, he finally revealed a piece of news, using it to exchange for me not to pursue this matter anymore. Maybe he was afraid I was going to disturb the order of the bad guys in some other shop.

I looked at Sun Zhen and nodded. Honestly speaking, to think that Sun Zhen would value such emotionally moved news so much, he must be extremely shocked. I perked my ears up in anticipation. Sun Zhen slowly said: "I'm chatting with an old friend. I heard he said that an archaeological team from Yan Jing came to our Old Qin, and he was preparing to go to Weicheng."

"Hmm? Archaeological team? What are you doing in the Weicheng? " It wasn't me who was first surprised, it was another man who seemed to have grown a lot fatter. It was obvious that they had only just learned of this matter. All sorts of expressions did not seem to be of any use, and more importantly, there was no need to put on an act like this.

"Purpose? I heard that he had to find some lost technique, but that's not important. The most important thing is that I know his goal. He should be in this mountain behind us. "

"Looking for lost craftsmanship?" Hearing Sun Zhen's words, my heart suddenly skipped a beat, and an illusory image suddenly appeared in my mind. In the back mountains, lost craftsmanship, no matter how I listened to it, seemed to me that the place they were looking for should be the same as the one I was looking for. This caused my mood to slowly sink to the bottom.

Someone sucked in a breath of cold air, and the Wen Sun Zhen that he found somewhat unbelievable asked: "Are those from the provincial or national level?"

Sun Zhen said: "It must be a national level, rushing from Beijing to our Weicheng, what else can it be other than a national level exam team?"

"My god, a national team is coming? What exactly did they find in the mountain? " Fatty Zhou praised as he asked Sun Zhen, and Sun Zhen shook his head: "If I knew, I would have informed you guys a long time ago. But right now, the examination team has yet to release their hands, it's impossible to guess."

"But we can make the first move first, Boss Sun, how many days do they need to reach Weicheng?" The skinny man's eyes were filled with craftiness as he asked Sun Zhen, who also replied immediately: "Two days, at most three days. They have to rest and rest at Xianyang for a night. So we have at least two days. "

The extremely skinny man pushed the glasses on his nose and continued, "Then we're closer to the water tower now, just that we're a bit tight on time …" "Mhmm …" He paused, as if he had thought of something, "How about this, we release the great treasure behind the mountain, and everyone will go crazy in search of it. At that time, wouldn't the chances of us finding it be greatly increased? "

"This isn't appropriate!" Sun Zhen and I shook our heads and spoke at the same time. We looked at each other, I waved my hand indicating that Sun Zhen didn't need to be courteous with me. Sure enough, he understood my recklessness and didn't say any more polite words.

Sun Zhen continued to speak: "If the news completely spreads, I want to ask whether you are going to look for a treasure, or are you doing it to cause trouble? That incident four years ago, we have no choice but to take precautions. "

With that sentence, everyone fell silent. Four years ago, it was because a large grave was discovered that this news had somehow leaked out, causing everyone to flock to the grave together. Thus, the tragedy began. In front of treasures and money, there was no doubt that a person's bad character would be exposed. For the sake of the treasure, you kill him, he kill you, and then she would think of ways to kill him … And just like that, something extremely cruel happened in a place where we couldn't see the light of day.

After that, only a few people came out, but they did not last long before they went insane for no reason. Almost everyone chose a way to commit suicide, committing suicide for the rest of their lives.

Some people said that under that tomb, his mind had completely collapsed after experiencing too much slaughter. There were also some people who said that while they were still in the tomb, they might have wanted to be at peace. However, due to the influence of something, they didn't recognize anyone.

As for those few survivors, they were lucky enough to escape calamity, but the unclean things in the tomb had kept pestering them to take their lives.

There were many theories based on which there was no way to tell if they were true or false. Some of them would make you laugh and cry, as if they were the things he had experienced personally.

To be honest, no one really knew what the truth of the matter was until now. Those who were alive didn't want to talk about it, but when they got mad, there was no way to talk about it. Those who were dead couldn't talk about it, so everything was just everyone's deduction.

As for why I said it wasn't appropriate, it was because I didn't want these people who were scarier than Ox, Ghost, Snake and God to rush into the mountains and disturb the peace and quiet of the simple villagers there.

"This matter is not easy to deal with. If we were to be caught in a conflict with those people, I'm afraid we'll have to go inside to reflect on it for a few years." There is some reason for concern. After all, they would not be able to see the light of day. If they had any conflict with the people who were wearing the glory of the National Archaeological Team, they would definitely be the unlucky ones.

After discussing for a long time, in the end, Sun Zhen still came to a decision after clapping the table. "It's up to you whether you want to go or not, I've brought you the news. You can't leak the news, but you can tell your close friends to go with you. 1v1, this isn't the right choice. "
