Hearing what the village chief said, Old Wu shook his head and said.
"Village Chief, there is indeed some trouble in this matter in your back mountain, but if we want to completely solve it, we still need to understand some things."
After hearing what Lao Wu said, the village chief looked very complicated and spoke.
"I don't know what Master still wants to know. We have said everything we can say, and there is nothing else to hide."
"Oh, that's not the case. Village Chief, I just want to ask you if your village has a diary that records what happened in the village over a long period of time."
After hearing what Chang Xiao said, the village chief nodded and said.
"There are some. They are at the village committee. I will bring a few masters there."
Just when the village chief was about to take us to the village committee, the village chief's wife came out of the house and spoke.
"What time is it? Let's go after dinner!"
When the village chief heard his wife's reminder, he stopped and blushed. It was true. Things in the village were very urgent, but we couldn't neglect these masters and let them do things on an empty stomach.
"Oh, I've neglected some of the masters. Look, I was just so anxious that I forgot about this matter. Let's go back to the house and have some food."
The village chief stopped and took us back to the house. Originally, the three of us wanted to go to the village committee first, but since the village chief was so enthusiastic, we could only have lunch first and then go to the village committee.
After arriving at the village committee, the village chief took out some old notepads from a locked cabinet and handed them to the three of us.
Old Wu opened it and searched for the information we wanted. After flipping through half of the book, Old Wu's hand stopped.
"Xiao Yi Changxiao, come and take a look!"
Chang Xiao and I walked forward and saw something recorded in this book.
This village was originally a Huangling Tomb. As for the emperor, there is no record. It can only be said that during the Qing Dynasty, a princess and her consort were buried here.
As time went by, people lived here after Huangling was abandoned. Gradually, people lived here, and then villages were formed one after another.
After seeing this, the three of us looked at each other, returned the diary to the village chief, and then spoke.
"Village chief, it turns out that your land is Huangling. Do you know this?"
After hearing our question, the village chief nodded and said.
"Knowing this matter, all the older people in the village know that it is passed down from the older generation. We don't know whether it is true or not. If you say it is Huang Ling, it stands to reason that we
Every household building a house and digging a well should have dug up some treasures, but there were no treasures except rocks and loess. As time went by, we thought it was just a legend."
After hearing what the village chief said, the three of us stopped asking any more questions. Since we already knew that this place used to be an imperial mausoleum, the tombs in the back mountain should be where the princess and the consort were buried.
After we left the village committee with the village chief, we went to the village chief's house to take a rest, planning to go to the back mountain to have a look again in the evening. Just when we sat down, the village chief slapped his thigh fiercely.
"Hey, I remembered it. Don't say that our village hasn't unearthed a treasure from the east end of the village. Grandma Zhang and her family have a treasure."
After hearing what the village chief said, the three of us suddenly became energetic and spoke to the village chief.
"What treasure was dug up from Grandma Zhang's house? How long did it take?"
The village chief thought for a while and said.
"The grandma in this picture is quite old. There are very few people in the village who are over 100 years old. Grandma Zhang is already one in 100 this year. Even though Grandma Zhang is older now, she is neither deaf nor blind, and
I’m not confused yet, everything is clear.”
"As for the treasure in his family, that's what Grandma Zhang said herself. There is a clay pot in his family. Grandma Zhang said that this clay pot was passed down from his grandmother."
"Since you are like this, village chief, please take us to Grandma Zhang's house now."
The village chief looked at the time, nodded and said.
"At this time, Grandma Zhang should be basking in the sun in her yard. This grandma has a very punctual schedule every day. She happens to be basking in the sun at this time. If she disturbs her old man any later, he will lose his temper."
As the village chief said, he led the three of us towards Grandma Zhang's house. When we were approaching Grandma Zhang's house, the village chief stopped and pointed his toes, looked in the direction of Grandma Zhang's house and said.
"Hey, it's strange. Grandma Zhang is sunbathing in the yard at this time every day. Why didn't she come out today?"
The three of us also looked in that direction. Sure enough, there was no one in the courtyard pointed by the village chief. The door was closed, giving the impression that no one lived there anymore.
"Grandma Zhang, grandma, are you at home?"
The village chief gently knocked on the door of Grandma Zhang's house. It was quiet inside the yard, and there was no response.
"Strange, why aren't you here? Let's go in and have a look!"
The village chief said and tried to push the door, but after a slight push, the door was not pushed open. The village chief tried again and found that the door was locked from the inside.
"This door is locked!"
The village chief said with a surprised look on his face.
I took a look and saw that the courtyard wall of Grandma Zhang’s house was not very high, so I told the village chief.
"Village chief, let's do this. I'll jump in and open the door. Do you think that's okay?"
After hearing what I said, the village chief hesitated slightly and nodded.
"Okay, just jump in and open the door. I'll be your witness. It'll be fine."
After hearing what the village chief said, I jumped into the yard of Grandma Zhang's house. When I was about to open the door, I suddenly felt a chill behind my back.
I stopped what I was doing, turned around, didn't see anything, and quickly opened the door. After the village chief entered the yard, he called Grandma Zhang.
"Grandma Zhang, have you gone to bed? It's great to come out and bask in the sun at this time!"
The village chief shouted tentatively, but there was still no sound from inside the house.
At this time, the village chief became a little anxious. He ran to Grandma Zhang's door in two steps and pushed it with his hands. Unexpectedly, the door was pushed open.
After pushing it open, a bad smell came out from the house. After smelling this smell, our hearts sank. Could it be that Grandma Zhang had an accident?
"Who is it? Why did you break into Grandma Zhang's house?"
At this time, there was a burst of noisy footsteps outside the door, and several people were seen arriving in the yard of Grandma Zhang's house.
The people in the yard saw the village chief and spoke.
