Yu Fu felt that it was really good for his parents to get this name for him, and he was foresighted. He had been suffering for most of his life, and he couldn't keep his clothes from cold and food without wrapping his belly. He struggled hard for a year to survive. He originally thought that this would be the case in his life, but the only thing he was proud of was that he successfully raised all his three sons and became an adult.

But what I never expected was that when I got old, my life suddenly got better and better. The original official was driven away, and some new official came, and everything changed.

Two years ago, his family had his own land. Although it was bought with the government, the money was not interested. The tax suddenly dropped to a very low level and the corvee service was gone. The projects that ordinary people had to bring their own food and grass to build were now all handled by the government, and there was also wages.

Whenever the farm is slack, such projects will be launched one after another, so that they can use their labor to exchange for some cash.

The remaining two sons in the family have now married their wives, and the thatched hut has been replaced with large tiled houses, and the granary is filled with grain. Yu Fu has never been as fulfilled as he is now.

He felt very happy.

The only regret is that the eldest son went to serve as a soldier, and then there was no news again, and I am afraid he will never come back. The family has already established a tomb for him, and he will adopt him from the second or third child in the future, so that someone can offer cigarettes in the future.

The autumn harvest has ended. The two sons packed their bags and went to Jiaozhou again. There is a very big harbor there, and they will always recruit labor. If they were not old and worked too hard when they were young, they would have left behind all the roots of their illnesses, and they would have gone with their son to make money.

The newly collected grain has been put into the warehouse, and I am waiting for the supply and marketing cooperatives to come to collect it. The price of grain this year is better than last year. I heard that it was because of war, so the price of grain has risen. Today, I can pay back ten more silver dollars in debt. Whenever I think of this, Yu Fu is happy.

Of course, he couldn't eat idle food at home. In Yu Fu's opinion, this was simply untolerated. However, the old woman and two daughters-in-law could do the family affairs, so he really didn't need him, so he carried a basket and prepared to go to the mountains to pick some honeysuckle.

It is the season when honeysuckle is in full bloom. This is a good medicinal material. After picking it and drying it, one pound can be sold for half a silver dollar! On the nameless hill not far from home, large pieces of honeysuckle grow! It is the season of maturity. If you have finished picking it completely, you will probably have more than one pound after drying it, which is half a silver dollar!

The wind was happily wafting under Yu Fu's feet, and the knee pain that had been trapped by him for many years seemed to be less obvious. The steep path was not an obstacle, but he enjoyed the guarantee of such a large piece of honeysuckle.

Finally arrived at the destination, the fragrance lingered between his nose, and the white and yellow honeysuckle sea in front of him were yellow copper coins. He had almost picked the outside ones yesterday, but today he had to walk a little more inside.

He bent into the tree and walked a few steps, and suddenly stopped.

A large pit appeared from the dense trees. He was stunned. He remembered that there was no such pit here. After walking a few more steps, he suddenly saw a man lying in the pit. Under him, a large area of ​​blood soaked the surrounding land. The blood had not changed color yet. Obviously, the man had not died for too long.

Yu Fu shouted, took several steps back, sat on the ground, and after a while, he got up, rolled and ran outside.

"Kill people, kill people!" He screamed all the way and ran down the mountain.

An hour later, the county's constables were already standing next to the pit.

Tao Pu squatted beside the deceased, the man lay face down on the ground, and a knife on his waist was fatal injury. What made Tao Pu frown even more was the things left behind around the man.

Without looking closely, Tao Pu knew that this was used for tomb robbers. Is there an ancient tomb here?

After someone removed the body, Tao Pu suddenly saw that there was an incomplete stone tablet under the man.

The tomb of Li Gong’s name Jinglong is revealed.

Well, this is the grave of a man named Li Jinglong. What is this person’s origin? Tao Pu doesn’t know, but he is definitely not a commoner, otherwise these tomb robbers would not have targeted him here.

"Boss, there are two tombs and dead people here!" In the dense jungle, the shouts of his subordinates came. Tao Pu's heart sank and walked into the inside with big strides.

Compared with the stolen pits outside, there are more stolen pits inside. There are rotten coffins everywhere and white bones are thrown to the ground. Three people died in the two stolen pits.

Four dead people appeared all of a sudden, and the case became enormous. Tao Pu's scalp couldn't help but feel numb. Digging graves was a serious crime, but once caught, there was only one way to die. Therefore, these tomb robbers were all desperate people, and they could make these desperate people angry here, and a large amount of wealth was found here.

Those who can bury treasures in large quantities are definitely not ordinary people.

This is a problem!

Tao Pu felt that his position as the captain was in danger.

These people are really hard to catch.

I looked at a few more tombstones, and sure enough, each of them had the surname Li. Obviously, this was a family tomb with the surname Li.

"Tao Tou, the county magistrate is here!" Another shout came from outside. Tao Pu calmed down and signaled his subordinates to carry the dead out, and he also strode out of the forest.

The county magistrate is very young, but his background is very great. I heard that he was a Jinshi graduated from Wuwei Academy. For Tao Pu, he was a figure who came to earth from the sky.

"Wuxian Zun, it was a tomb robber. There was a fire inside the tomb robber and four people died!" Tao Pu bowed and bowed. In the past two years, the county has had good weather, and there has been no vicious case. Suddenly, a vicious case like tomb robber and even died. No wonder the young county magistrate rushed over in a hurry.

I am afraid of being held accountable, and the county magistrate is also afraid of being evaluated!

If such a vicious case cannot be solved, the magistrate of Wu County will probably not be able to take it.

Wu Qiubei looked cold and walked inward with Tao Pu. He felt a little bad in his heart, because when he first came, he felt that the hill was a little strange. At this moment, he came up the mountain and had some convictions in his heart.

Where is this ordinary hill?

This is obviously a closure.

The soil was piled up as high as a mountain. Can it be ordinary people here? Hearing Tao Pu say that the owner of the tomb on the periphery was Li, and the date of the burial was less than a hundred years ago, his head hurt even more.

Because the royal family of the Tang Dynasty now has the surname Li!

A total of three graves were dug up.

Wu Qiubei is not a semi-literate person like Tao Pu who can barely understand. After reading it carefully, he felt relieved. The three dug-out graves were obviously still on the periphery, which means that the tomb robbers did not touch the graves of the real big man under the seal.

And after looking at it this time, he found that the outermost tomb was the simplest, and it was basically no different from ordinary people, but it was different inside, especially the innermost one, which looked quite extraordinary.

It seemed that this family had declined, and the more they went on, the less promising they were. In the end, they had become as different as ordinary people, which made him breathe a little relieved.

"Record the general situation here, then fill the pit and put it in peace. You cannot let the dead's corpse betray the wilderness." Wu Qiubei turned around and walked out, and ordered.

When he walked outside, the coroner had already surveyed the four bodies almost.

"The county lord, except for one outside who was suddenly attacked and killed, the three inside who died after fighting. This is the jade ring found in one of the people's arms, but the shape is a bit strange and different from the ordinary one. It seems that it was cut into two pieces from the middle, and only half of the pieces were found in this man's arms."

Looking at the jade ring spread on the white cloth, it was indeed a bit strange. The average jade ring is half-ring, but the two ends of this half-ring seemed to have been cut off. It originally looked like a circle.

"No other half was found?"

"No." The coroner said: "County Master, looking at this broken corner, it has been formed for at least decades, and it has not been broken now."

"Preserve it as evidence!" Wu Qiubei sighed and said, "There were four people killed in this case, and it involved the excavation of graves. Moreover, this place is a cemetery, and it is not too small. Report it to the upper hand and write the situation in detail. Forget it, I will write this matter myself."

Thinking that the owner in the tomb was very likely to be related to the current royal family, Wu Qiubei was a little helpless. It was really a matter of sitting at home, and disaster came from heaven.

"Taopu, all the constables in the county were dispatched and set up checkpoints to search. These people should have not escaped from our county." On the way back, Wu Qiubei ordered: "It would be best if people can be caught."

"Yes, county magistrate!" Tao Pu agreed happily, but he was secretly complaining in his heart. If such a group of desperate people really encounter it, it would be fatal.

"These people are probably all outlaws. The county has insufficient staff. I will ask the county magistrate to mobilize a group of militias to be dispatched by you." Wu Qiubei thought for a while and said again.

"Thank you, County Master!" Tao Pu was overjoyed, "County Master, can you ask Liu Santong from Shanjiao Town to bring their militias to help me?"

"Liu Santong? Do you know this person?"

"I heard that this person had been a general in the Pinglu Army before. In that kung fu, three or five strong men could not get close to him. These tomb robbers were all desperate people, and they had countless blood on their hands. If such people were to fight, their subordinates would be able to feel at ease!"
