Chapter thirty-six, strange ginseng

Being rich is Li Ergou's first reaction. Not to mention those antiques of gold, silver and jade, I only talk about more than a dozen bronzes. The simplicity of the ancient aura hits my face. It is obvious that they are national treasure-level antiques. If you say that these bronzes are not allowed to be bought and sold privately, you will lose your head when you catch them. However, Li Ergou naturally has his own shipping channel.

Birds die for food, and people die for profit. This is the nature of human beings.

But just as they left the tomb with antiques in sacks, something strange happened.

After walking out of the ancient tomb, they did not see the starry night, but saw an extremely beautiful garden. There was no starlight, and the sky was covered by a layer of gray clouds. The garden was covered with various rare plants, emitting soft light throughout.

Li Ergou and several adults were shocked. Only Li Dehui, who was naturally lively, was Li Ergou's son. He ran up and dug a few times with a Luoyang shovel, and actually dug out a ginseng that was thick as an arm. Judging from the weight of the ginseng, the weight of the ginseng is no less than eight taels.

The eight-two-fold ginseng can't grow after five hundred years. You should know that except for some plants with strange shapes, ginseng is flooded like weeds in the yard.

Ginseng is much better than antiques, and there is no risk. Moreover, the value of one ginseng of eight liang is far beyond the antiques in his hands. A group of tomb robbers who were hit by this unexpected fortune had already filled their hearts with wealth at this time. They could not care about the strange scene that suddenly appeared, and they immediately dug up in the garden.

But just as they were so surprised that they put thick ginseng into the sack, the ginseng that had not yet been dug out in the garden jumped out of the soil. They gathered together, sang like others and moved towards the tomb robbers while singing.

The tomb robbers were stunned by the sudden strange phenomenon, and the shovel in their hands stopped digging. Li Ergou's voice trembled. He had never seen such a strange thing: "What's going on?"

But at this moment, a ginseng jumped out of the circle and smiled at them, "What's going on?"

The exact same words, even the voice was exactly the same as Li Ergou, and an extremely terrifying atmosphere suddenly came, covering every tomb robber.

"My mother!"

Ginseng's words suddenly seemed to smash a huge rock on the calm lake. I don't know which tomb robber screamed, and everyone immediately drilled towards the passage of the ancient tomb.

"My mother!" The ginsengs also started shouting at the same time, their voices still the same.

When Li Ergou was dizzy and crawled into the ancient tomb, and in a disordered state, he escaped from the ancient tomb without realizing it. When he woke up, he realized that he was already standing dozens of meters away from the ancient tomb. His left hand was holding a ginseng and his right hand was pulling Li Dehui, but his subordinates were missing.

There was no sound in the ancient tomb where he had dug up the passage, just as if those subordinates had evaporated in an instant. When Li Ergou recalled his previous experience, he was suddenly frightened. He dared not stay here for a moment, throw the ginseng, and pulled Li Dehui, who was very priest, and fled to the mountains.

At the moment of returning home, Li Ergou swore that he would never go to rob the tomb again. Anyway, he had worked for so many years, and the wealth he passed down from his ancestors was enough for his family to live happily for the rest of his life.

Li Ergou decided to stop, but the matter seemed to be over.

After the son who returned home was relieved of his fright, he woke up for a few days.

However, one night, his son fell asleep and his wife went back to her parents' home to visit relatives. Li Ergou was preparing to stir-fry some peanuts and drink some wine. When he came to the kitchen and reached into the pocket of the peanuts, he was shocked to find that what he had caught was not a handful of peanuts, but the ginseng that he had thrown out of the ancient tomb.

The feeling of nightmares made Li Ergou sweat immediately. However, Li Ergou was a tomb robber after all, and had experienced many dangers. Although he was afraid, he still ran out of the village and threw the ginseng away again.

When he returned home, he was frightened to find that his son was awake. He was holding the thrown ginseng in his hand and dancing the same dance as the ginseng in the main room. His left and right hands seemed to be holding someone, and his face was smiling and shouting: "What's going on? My mother!"

"I'm a 18th generation of ancestors!" Li Ergou trembled all over and wanted to run away, but his son's safety made his body turn back. While wailing to give himself courage, he rushed up to grab the ginseng from his son's hand, rushed to the kitchen and raised the kitchen knife to cut the ginseng into dozens of pieces, and then stuffed it into the stove.

A strong smell of hair suddenly spread throughout the kitchen. Li Ergou ran to the main hall again and saw that his son did not dance anymore, but lay in a coma on the ground.

After Li Ergou burned the ginseng, he had nothing to do all night. He stayed until dawn. Li Ergou, who had been worried all night, immediately brought a handful of money and rushed to Zhang Xianniang's house in the village. He knew that he had been tragic.

Zhang Xianniang is very famous in the village. It is said that she can invite fox fairies to see a doctor and treat people, and drive away evil spirits.

After receiving Li Ergou's handful of money, Zhang Xianniang naturally went to the Li family to drive away the evil demons. A group of idle men heard about what happened to the Li family and followed them. When they thought, even in broad daylight, even if there were any ghosts and evil demons, they would not dare to show up.

What they never expected was that when Zhang Xianniang was about to start asking the fox fairy to be on her back, Li Dehui woke up, and he grabbed the ginseng and took Zhang Xianniang's hand and danced.

The idle men were suddenly in an uproar. I don’t know if the fox fairy invited by Zhang Xianniang had some effect. After jumping a few steps, Zhang Xianniang’s expression changed. She shook Li Dehui’s hand and turned around and ran away. While running, she shouted: “Li Ergou, this evil demon is so powerful. I’m sorry, I’ll return the money to you, don’t look for me.”

It is said that after Zhang Xianniang returned home, she kept her door closed and covered her house with menstruation sanitary napkins.

After this dance, Li Dehui fell to the ground and died and was sent to the hospital for death.

The idle men were also frightened, and they scattered just like birds and beasts.

Li Ergou knew that his son was dead and those subordinates had never heard of him coming back. He probably wouldn't escape the bad luck, and he would definitely find him next.

After kneeling outside Zhang Xianniang's house for a day, Li Ergou was touched by Zhang Xianniang who couldn't bear it through the gate. The general idea was to ask him to come to Qinglong Temple to ask for help, and perhaps ask the Taoist priests from Qinglong Temple to do rituals, which could drive away the evil demons.
