Next, the boss told a terrifying story.

The story is not complicated, but it sounds creepy.

The general meaning of the story is that after the Ghost King came, he did not immediately look for the ancient tomb, but chatted with the boss and the others. Perhaps the Ghost King was still young and did not shy away. During the chat, the boss knew that the Ghost King came from a remote rural area. There was a saying in the local area: "Pick up the Luoyang shovel, no matter whether it is early or late, you will make a fortune and go to rob the tombs, and get rich by cultural relics." The villagers in some places even "men robbed tombs and women deliver food."

According to the Ghost King, at that time, he didn't want to do other jobs except tomb robbers. If he did other jobs, he would still be the same after a few years, but tomb robbers was different. This is a job of luck. Although not every tomb can make a fortune, once luck comes, you can make a fortune. If you don't open it for ten years, you can eat for ten years. In this environment, the Ghost King became a member of the tomb robber army.

It was this chat that gave the boss some understanding of the tomb robbery industry and also learned a so-called "tomb robbery guide" from the Ghost King. This book is actually the "Chinese Cultural Relics Map Album" published by China Map Publishing House. This map album is divided into volumes such as Beijing, Shandong, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Guangdong, Sichuan, etc., providing a large amount of cultural relics information in detail, and comprehensively recording the "status of existing immovable cultural relics known in major cultural relics provinces". The information of ancient tombs is an important part of it.

However, the "Tomb Raider Guide" only allows tomb robbers to know where ancient tombs are available. How did they accurately find the tombs buried deep underground? What made the boss incredible is that many tomb robbers have a set of tomb robbers similar to traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis and treatment techniques, namely the four-character proof of "look", "sniff", "ask", and "cut".

"Wang" means looking at Feng Shui and plants. Most experienced tomb robbers are good at Feng Shui techniques, and they must first observe the terrain whenever they go. Because the ancients believed in Feng Shui, most ancient tombs were built on "Feng Shui treasure land". If they were surrounded by mountains and water, they would definitely be the place where tombs gather. In addition, the grass, trees and even soil around the tombs are important basis for tomb robbers to make judgments. For example, in places where there are ancient tombs, the soil has been dug and trampled, and the growth of crops will be worse than the ones next to them.

"Smell" means smelling, and distinguishing whether there is a tomb in a certain place according to the different smells. For example, in tombs in the Qin and Han Dynasties, mercury and cinnabar are often poured into anti-corrosion; while the walls of tombs after the Tang and Song Dynasties are usually coated with blue paste mud. The smell emitted by these special substances is difficult for ordinary people to detect, and tomb robbers can always keenly distinguish it. Another meaning of "Smell" is to listen to sounds. Generally, large ancient tombs, once they are shocked like thunder in the air, can emit sounds different from other places to the surface. Jiao Si, the notorious tomb robber in the Qing Dynasty, was good at finding tombs through sounds. He once looked for cemeteries when thunder was made, and could accurately judge the location of the tomb based on the echo.

"Ask" means to scheduling the spot. Tomb robbers are generally good at talking about the past and present with the elderly. Whenever they go, they will visit local elderly people as fortune tellers or Feng Shui masters, and get information about the ancient tombs through conversations with these people.

"Cut" is the most important part of the process of finding an ancient tomb. It has three meanings: one refers to the fact that after discovering an ancient tomb, accurately find the hole-cutting direction based on the terrain on the surface, and enter the tomb at the shortest distance; the second is to open the coffin in the tomb, and touch the treasures on the deceased without omission; the third is to touch the cultural relics after touching the cultural relics, and then determine which dynasty it is, and how valuable it is.

After thousands of years of development, the "industry" of tomb robbery has now become increasingly industrialized and has formed an industrial chain. According to the division of labor, the personnel in the tomb robbery circle have different titles: "palm", "supporting pot", "legs" and "deep suffering". One-stop work such as robbery, transportation, harboring, and selling stolen goods is completed by these roles.

Usually, the whole class of tomb robbers has a unified name called "Yiguoer". The highest level in "Guan" is called "Zhangyan", which is the core figure among the "Guan" people. "Zhangyan" not only has the ability to find ancient tombs, but also has the ability to identify cultural relics. They can be collaborators who provide clues to ancient tombs, or primary buyers who intend to purchase cultural relics in the tombs.

"Supporting pot" is the person in charge of every excavation activity, similar to the contractor who contracts the project, is responsible for raising funds, equipment, etc. for tomb robbery operations. The investment in the "Supporting pot" is risky. Once no one buys out the excavated cultural relics, he can only deal with them by himself.

"Legs" refer to technical workers in tomb robbery activities. They play a role similar to "project manager" in the tomb robbery process, responsible for exploring the specific location of the cemetery and determining whether there are cultural relics inside.

In the tomb robbery industry chain, the lowest level is "deep suffering". "deep suffering" is mostly migrant workers who engage in specific excavation work. Usually, even if the boss steals an ancient tomb and earns tens of millions of yuan, a "deep suffering" can only get a reward of hundreds to thousands of yuan.

At the beginning, the boss was in trouble and advanced to Lexicon after being guided by the Ghost King. After that, after following the boss, he occasionally did a job of doing things. However, because of his limited ability, he had no wild paths in the world and could not become a master. He often had no business and sometimes had to take on some Lexicon work. For example, this time, the boss took on Lexicon's work for a living.

When it comes to the boss who can have a certain status in this industry, I also have to thank the Ghost King for his guidance. If it weren't for the Ghost King, the boss would be a miserable name in his life, at best, just a leg.

Of course, the so-called status of the boss is self-proclaimed. In the eyes of Xiao Mo and his group of people, there is no difference between the boss and them. Everyone is suffering from both legs and legs, and no one is higher...

...

"Boss, what are the stories you told?" Xiao Mo obviously had no interest in the boss's past stories. In Xiao Mo's opinion, the boss felt a bit elevated.

"Ahem... I'm old, I can't stop talking as soon as I open it. Well, let's get back to the point. After the Ghost King came, I first chatted with us. The atmosphere of the chat was very relaxed. It seemed to be just talking about to tomb robbers. However, I later learned that he learned about the situation through chatting. The Ghost King said that this indirect method can make people say the most intuitive feeling, which is much better than asking straight to the point..."

"What did you find later?"

"He asked first, then he looked, smelled and cut. He was very skillful in his technique. After doing these, he measured the direction of the five elements, etc. Soon, he discovered the entrance to the ancient tomb."

"So awesome."

"The awesome one is still behind." The boss smiled bitterly, "When I found the entrance to the ancient tomb, it was already dark. At that time, the palm came, haha, it was still called the palm, unlike now when they were called the big boss... After the palm came, people asked people to open the ancient tomb, but after looking around, the Ghost King disagreed, saying that the yin energy of the ancient tomb was too heavy, and it was necessary to open the tomb when the yang energy rose and continued to be strong during the day..."

"What?" Xiao Mo asked anxiously. At this time, the tomb robbers around him surrounded him and listened to the boss telling stories.

"The Ghost King's position in the circle was already very transcendent, and he spoke very heavily. Although Zhangyan couldn't wait to open the tomb, he still accepted the Ghost King's suggestion. Then, he set up camp next to the tomb, waiting for dawn to enter the ancient tomb. The Ghost King and Zhangyan both went back to the hotel to sleep..." The expression on the boss's face became solemn.

"What then?" a group of tomb robbers urged in unison.

"Then, there were about a dozen people guarding the tombs, so I took turns to sleep. I worked all day and was tired, so I suggested going to bed first and staying at the second half of the night."

At this time, a group of tomb robbers all raised their appetites, and no one interrupted the boss, and they looked at him one by one.

"When I woke up, it was already dawn."

"ah……"

A group of tomb robbers were stunned. They originally thought that something would happen tonight, but they did not expect that the ending would be that the boss slept until dawn all night.

"Why don't they call you on duty?" Xiao Mo was a little leader after all, and immediately realized something was wrong.

"I was drugged by them." The boss smiled bitterly.

"Ah..." A group of tomb robbers were stunned. Obviously, this was beyond their expectations.

"Because it's too long, I don't remember how many people guard the tomb. In short, it was a large ancient tomb. I was afraid that someone would hide his evil intentions. I deliberately arranged for the confidant and a large number of people to restrain each other, but I didn't expect something happened..."

The boss paused for a moment, as if recalling some details at that time.

"Later I recalled that it was probably when we were having dinner together. I still remember that there were four people who were drugged, including me. Haha, think about it, the people at that time were quite simple, they just drugged us and did not kill us... In fact, I am still grateful to the person who drugged the drug. It was them who drugged me that I lived in disguise until now, otherwise..."

"Boss, just say it, don't be too impressed!" The third brother finally couldn't help but urged him.

"It's dawn, I'm still sleeping. I was woken up by the Ghost King. When we arrived at the ancient tomb, the tomb of the ancient tomb had been opened. At that time, I thought, the valuable things in this ancient tomb might have been swept away, and I was worried that the palms would pay us..."

This time, no one disturbed the boss because people felt the fear in his eyes, which was the fear exuded from his bones.

"At that time, the tomb had been completely opened, but the Ghost King did not enter immediately, but asked people to bring a large number of mirrors from the bottom of the mountain. Regarding the mirror, I later thought that the Ghost King and the Palm went down the mountain that day, they should have gone to buy mirrors..."

"Why buy a mirror?"
