At this moment, a thunderous roar came from behind the crowd, drowning out the commotion: "Chi Muduo, you are so brave! I have only been away for a few days, and you do such a thing, look at what I will do
Get rid of you!"
Everyone looked back and saw You Chengyuan striding over. Her appearance had already left a deep impression on the villagers. People also knew that she and Chi Muduo were a couple, so they let out a burst of laughter and took the initiative to make way for her.
There were expressions of gloating on their faces.
You Chengyuan was so angry that he looked as if he wanted to eat Chi Muduo alive. He raised a hand and pointed at the tip of Chi Muduo's nose. He ignored the crowd in front and walked straight past him. Chi Muduo was shaking with anger.
When he saw his wife coming, she looked like she was going to take care of him, but she calmed down, and there was a wry smile deep in her eyes.
The villagers were all quiet and expecting something. You Chengyuan had already reached the front of the crowd, as if he was about to rush over and strangle his husband to death, but suddenly turned around in front of the hemp rope, waved his hand and gave Xiaochun a slap in the face. This slap was another slap in the face.
Crisp and loud, it was like setting off firecrackers. The big movement was full of energy. Xiaochun spun around in a circle and almost fell over. Except for a little redness and swelling on his face, he didn't suffer any injuries.
"You shameless thing, you dared to seduce my husband after taking advantage of the courage of a leopard!" Accompanying the slap was a powerful shout.
This slap and a roar stunned everyone, and the scene was quiet for several seconds. Everyone thought she was going to settle a score with Chi Muduo, so why did she backhand beat Xiaochun?
Fei Cai, who was standing nearby, didn't react and shouted: "Why do you hit a woman?"
You Chengyuan angrily yelled: "Why do you, a man, get in the middle of a fight between wives? Are you involved in this shitty affair? Anyone else, please come forward!"
Of course, no one came forward, and no one expected this unexpected surprise. Although You Chengyuan looks amazing, he usually looks polite, but he didn't expect that he would be so violent when he threw a tantrum. He was like a rampaging yaksha. The villagers
Their reaction was a bit chaotic, some were cheering loudly, some were talking excitedly as if they were enjoying a wonderful show, and some were yelling at You Chengyuan from behind that he shouldn't hit someone.
It’s no wonder that everyone reacted like this. Regarding this situation, the village director had never explained it beforehand. He was used to seeing mothers-in-law bickering and fighting and tearing each other apart in the countryside. Regardless of the matter, he wanted to make it more lively. Besides, what You Chengyuan was scolding was
"Seduce my husband" rather than "slander my husband" is still a dirty joke. If it gets too serious, the result will be the same.
Several archaeological team members saw You Chengyuan being so impulsive and wanted to stop him, but Chi Muduo secretly held him back. The "person involved" lowered his head and touched his nose with a wry smile on his face.
It was the village director who stepped forward at the "critical moment" and shouted: "Are you wrong? It's obviously your husband who raped someone else's daughter, why didn't you ask questions about the random person?"
You Chengyuan pointed at Fermi and almost poked him on the bridge of his nose: "Do you have a leg? Are you standing up for yourself? I haven't been here for a few days, and something like this happened to your husband in your village. You, the village director, are pulling the strings."
A pimp? Tell you, I’m not done with you!”
Some people laughed, and some were very dissatisfied. A group of women nearby were not happy, and came up to stop You Chengyuan: "You woman, how can you be so unreasonable? You can't look down on your husband but blame others, and you are so shameless."
?...Public Security Chang, why don’t you arrest that gangster named Chi?”
Seeing that the scene had turned into a complete farce, Chang Shuxin got through the hemp rope and shouted with a straight face: "Why are you making noises? Get out of the way! We haven't figured out what's going on yet. Just arrest people if you say you want to?..."
Xiaochun, do you want to sue Director Chi? Then I’ll take you back for trial! I’m warning you, it’s against the law to spread rumors and frame up accusations.”
The village party secretary didn't know why, but he scolded Xiaochun from the side: "What are you suing for? You didn't even shout. Who can prove it was rape? Isn't it humiliating enough? ... This person is a high-ranking official from above!"
Xiaochun covered her face and cried: "Public Security Chang, I don't want to sue him, I didn't want to sue him in the first place!... The folks are all here, I don't have the face to see anyone!"
You Chengyuan stepped forward and grabbed Chang Shuxin by the collar of his police uniform: "Public Security Chang, since all the folks are here, don't go back to ask. We will hold a three-chamber trial here...
... Xiaochun, don’t worry, if you are really a victim, I will definitely give you justice, otherwise the villagers won’t agree, right?”
"Yes, quick trial, quick trial, tell us what they did!" Many people echoed loudly.
You Chengyuan let go of his hand, raised his head and shouted, "Chi Muduo, did you really do that kind of thing?"
Chi Muduo didn't know what his expression was. He shook his head and replied calmly: "No."
You Chengyuan turned around and said to Xiaochun, "He's lying, right?"
Xiaochun forgot to cry, put down the hand covering her face, nodded and said: "Yes, he lied!"
You Chengyuan: "Then he just did it. Did he take off his clothes?"
Xiaochun: "Take it off."
You Chengyuan: "Have you taken off your clothes from top to bottom? Did you read that right? He is my husband?"
Chang Shuxin was very puzzled and even a little embarrassed. Who was the police? Why did You Chengyuan ask about the "case" in public, but he didn't feel ashamed to expose the family scandal? But the emotions of the villagers who were watching were ignited again, and everyone was flushed.
Their faces were full of joy, and they were all listening attentively. I didn’t expect to catch up with the live broadcast today, which is much more exciting than going to the market to listen to a play.
Xiaochun: "I can see clearly, it's him."
The village party secretary Fei Huo frowned and felt something was wrong. He wanted to step forward to stop him, but You Chengyuan took two steps forward and blocked him. When Chang Shuxin saw this scene, he suddenly understood something and held on to the pistol handle at his waist.
He took a step forward and stopped in front of the crowd and said: "Don't make noises to anyone, let her ask!"
You Chengyuan: "How long have you slept with me?"
Only then did Xiaochun hide her face and cry again: "I left in the middle of the night while he was asleep."
You Chengyuan: "Don't cry, I'm really wronged. I'll make the decision for you. If you want someone to arrest them, I'll pay you as much as you want!... Were the lights turned off at that time?"
Xiaochun was stunned for a moment before replying: "It's closed."
You Chengyuan asked back: "How could you recognize that it's my man when the lights are turned off at night?"
Xiaochun explained: "In the beginning, he kept the light on. After he finished the trouble, he hugged me and went to sleep, and then turned off the light in the middle of the night."
You Chengyuan turned around and walked over the hemp rope, came to Chi Muduo, grabbed one of his arms, and drew a circle in front of him with the other hand from his shoulders to his chest and abdomen, and said sternly: "There is a man on the front of my man's upper body.
The birthmark is very eye-catching because of its large mouth!... Xiaochun, if you can point it out today, I will believe you!... If you point it out wrong, believe it or not, I will smash your tooth socket and leave you with nothing but
I can just have soup and porridge!”
The crowd made a "buzz" sound and everyone murmured secretly. They didn't expect that this person had such a skill. If Chi Muduo hadn't done it, Xiaochun really couldn't point it out. As he spoke, You Chengyuan had let go of Chi Muduo and strode towards Xiaochun.
Even scarier than a ferocious god, he shouted as he walked: "I'm counting from one to ten. If you haven't pointed it out yet, don't blame me for being rude!"
Xiaochun was speechless and stopped pretending to cry. He backed away with a look of horror. As soon as Chang Shuxin saw her reaction, he immediately understood what was going on and shouted: "Xiaochun, don't leave, speak clearly!
"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Fei Cai took a step forward and tried to stop You Chengyuan, but unexpectedly the hoe in his hand was snatched away by her. You Chengyuan held the hoe and sneered at Xiaochun, only to hear a click, and the handle of the jujube wood hoe, which was as thick as a wine glass, was
She was forced to break it into two pieces with her bare hands - this woman is so powerful!
"It's none of my business!" Xiaochun screamed and turned around and ran away. The crowd of onlookers moved aside a crack and then closed it automatically, letting her run away in front of their eyes. Several villagers saw Xiaochun running past them.
, and took the opportunity to reach out and touch her body, and among them was Fei Dabao.
"Uncle Dabao, how do you touch this girl?" You Fang appeared next to Fei Dabao behind the crowd at some point and asked curiously. At the same time, he reached out to touch her but failed.
Fei Dabao chuckled and said: "Those who entertain guests in the guest house, you have to spend money to sleep, but if you don't touch it, it will be in vain."
You Chengyuan did not chase, but dodged and grabbed Femi's collar again, barely able to lift him up, and asked: "Director Mi, what do you mean? I can't let you go without giving me an explanation today.
!”
A group of archaeological team members, except Chi Muduo, all stepped forward to ask for an explanation. Seeing that the situation was about to become chaotic again, Chang Shuxin quickly pushed away You Chengyuan's arm and said: "Director Fermi, you are singing this
Which one? Are you bringing so many fellow countrymen here just to spread rumors and frame you?"
Femi waved his hand: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, I also heard what Fei Cai said, and I forgot to ask clearly in my anger."
You Chengyuan turned around and glared at Fei Cai: "Did you do this?"
Fei Cai also hid behind him: "No, no, Xiaochun made the rumor herself. Seeing that Director Chi is a big shot, she might want to take the opportunity to make a fortune."
You Chengyuan: "She belongs to your guest house. If I can't find her, I'll settle the score with you. Believe it or not, I smashed your stove and tore down your door?"
Fei Cai: "You go to Xiaochun to settle the score. I apologize and I will give you a discount on the accommodation fee..."
Chang Shuxin advised You Chengyuan on the side: "Don't get excited, I will find out... Fei Cai, because you spread rumors, the villagers punctured someone else's tire, you are responsible for hiring someone to repair it, otherwise I will deal with you!...
Director Femi, why don't you take the people from your village and leave quickly, then go back and apologize to Director Chi, haven't you caused enough trouble?"
Several village cadres looked at each other in confusion, talking about the same thing. The main purpose of gathering people to cause trouble today was to drive the archaeological team away in despair. If they just left in such despair, they would be a bit unwilling.
At this moment, You Chengyuan patted Chang Shuxin on the shoulder: "Public Security Chang, your gun fell."
Chang Shuxin's whole body was numb and unable to move at this moment. Everyone looked down and saw that Chang Shuxin's pistol had fallen to the ground at some point, but no one noticed it. You Chengyuan bent down and picked it up and said: "You must hold this thing carefully."
Now, let me pick it up for you."
She said she was picking it up for him, but she didn't return it to him. Instead, she held it in her own hand and moved it around in circles. Chi Muduo stood on a high place and lost no time in shouting: "Chengyuan, don't mess around, be careful of misfires!"
It was a good thing that he didn't shout. With his voice, everyone around him noticed You Chengyuan's actions, and turned around and ran away with a loud scream.
The gun pointed upward in Officer Chang's hand did not seem to have much of a deterrent effect. Many villagers, including old women, dared to rush forward, like warriors who were not afraid of death. But when You Chengyuan pointed in his hand and the gun muzzle swept, everyone
It was like a frightened rabbit jumping up and ducking back.
The brave aunt who had scolded Chang Shuxin earlier and told him to shoot her was now running faster than the men, even losing one of her shoes. The crowd was in chaos and retreated for 180 meters like a tide.
, the hoe was lost all over the floor.
At this moment, someone shouted: "Oh no, there's a fire in the village!" Looking up, a line of thick smoke rose in the sky in the direction of Feiju Village.
Including Fermi, everyone's expressions changed drastically. Without saying a word, they ran towards the village like crazy, and were all gone in an instant. Chang Shuxin finally felt that he could move, and You Chengyuan returned the pistol.
He said: "Officer, thank you for your hard work!"
Chang Shuxin was already breaking out in a cold sweat. She carefully put away her gun and turned around to ask Chi Muduo: "Director Chi, do you want to sue Xiaochun for defamation?" As a police officer, of course he has legal knowledge. Defamation is generally a private prosecution case.
, as the saying goes, if the people don’t sue the officials, they won’t be held accountable. If you want to file a lawsuit, you have to go to court and sue yourself.
Chi Muduo stepped forward and took one of You Chengyuan's hands, and shook his head sullenly. Several other archaeological team members looked up at the thick smoke in the distance with doubts on their faces. Why did Feiju Village happen to be here at this time?
on fire?
"Boom", a vague muffled sound suddenly came from the distance, Chang Shuxin changed his color and said: "It's explosives!"
Chi Muduo nodded and said: "It's the sound of explosives. Didn't you receive the alarm to investigate the case? The case is not difficult to investigate. The tomb robbers used explosives. There is neither mining nor reservoir construction here. Where can such control come from?
Objects? Whoever hides explosives is a clue."
As he spoke, he heard two more muffled sounds, again the sound of explosives. Chang Shuxin said: "I have to go and have a look. I suggest you leave here and live in the town temporarily."
Chi Muduo shook his head decisively: "No, the three ancient tombs here have just been exploded, and some cultural relics that were not destroyed have not yet been stolen. I have to clean and rescue them all night." After speaking, he turned around and looked at the hillside in the middle.
Under that big pit was the Han tomb whose dome murals were blown up. He looked as if he was about to cry. He was not so aggrieved when he was slandered just now, and he said to himself——
"Nearly a hundred tombs have been stolen here. Judging from any possible features and detection results that can be observed on the surface, no large tombs have survived in this area. All the tombs that can be stolen have been stolen. This is probably the last large tomb.
Tombs. If there are still, I hope there are still, and I hope they will not be found now.
This could have been a major discovery in the archaeological history of Southern Chu, filling the gaps in the historical materials of Chu culture and examining the history of the Pearl River Basin from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty to the Han Dynasty. Its relationship and differences with the civilizations of the Yellow River and Yangtze River Basin. Unfortunately, there are very few historical records in this regard.
I have been cleaning up so far, but I haven't even found anything that can identify the lineage of the owner of the tomb. The most culturally valuable things have either been stolen or damaged.
The value of cultural relics cannot be measured by market price. If the source of cultural research and successors are lost, the so-called antiques will be like lifeless dead leaves or rocks in the mountains, losing their most fundamental value. Without this
Based on this value, no antique in the world is valuable. Some people don’t know that it is the long heritage of civilization that allows them to steal valuable antiquities, let alone what they are destroying!”
You Chengyuan silently held her husband's hand and looked at him distressedly without saying a word.
…
The place where the fire broke out was the Feiju Village Committee. It was an independent building at the entrance of the village. It had ten rooms on two floors, including an office, a reference room, and a warehouse. There was no one inside at the time, and the gates and courtyard doors were locked.
Tight.
The fire was very bizarre, and thick smoke suddenly appeared. Within a few seconds, there was a muffled sound, and half of the small building collapsed. All the people staying behind in the village were alarmed, but no one dared to put out the fire.
Instead, the elderly and young all hid far away because they heard the sound of the explosion.
Is there explosives in the village committee’s warehouse? If there are a lot of them, it’s no joke!
There were indeed explosives in the village committee, and they exploded several times, completely blowing the small building into rubble, and the three walls of the courtyard were also blown down on two sides. The nearest house more than ten meters away only shattered a few pieces of glass.
, there was no other damage in the village - this is the only place where all the villagers feel most fortunate.
At that time, all the young people in the village were still rushing back in the valley, and they didn’t know the specific situation. There were a lot of explosives piled up in the village committee warehouse. If they exploded together, the power would be amazing, and the nearby houses would probably be damaged, and the entire village would be damaged.
Don't even think about leaving a few windows. No one knows one thing: these explosives were separated and detonated in different places downstairs, and their power was greatly weakened.
Why do the villagers in the valley run so fast when they see the thick smoke? Because many of them have explosives hidden in their homes! Even if they don’t have explosives in their own homes, they know that their neighbors have them. If a fire breaks out, it will be unthinkable. The only people left in the village are old, weak, women and children.
! Nearly two miles passed through the entire valley, and more than a mile passed through the path between the mulberry forests. By the time they rushed back, the village committee had long been destroyed.
The village committee was destroyed in the fire, leaving only the locked courtyard door and a broken wall connected to the courtyard door. On the wall were eight bloody characters - Destroy my Yinju, Ping Eryangzhai.
!
These words are in Han Li style, and I don’t know whose blood they were written with. What’s even more special is that they were not written outside the courtyard wall, but inside the courtyard wall with the door locked! Before the fire, no one could
No one was seen in the village committee yard, and no one was seen running out after the fire broke out.
Of course, in that chaotic situation, no one noticed that a few chickens were missing in the village.
Chinese and Chinese characters have an unparalleled unique advantage: modern Chinese with a middle school level can basically read simple articles from thousands of years ago; the fonts still in use today are no different from those two thousand years ago.
, even if you don’t usually write traditional Chinese characters, most of them can be recognized.
You Fang originally wanted to write the big seal script, but then he remembered that the Chu seal script was different from the Qin seal script. There were very few existing materials, and he didn't know much about it. Besides, when it came to writing the ancient seal script, many villagers were not able to recognize it, so he might as well just make do with the Han official seal script.
, lower the difficulty, and don’t ask too high of the folks in Feiju Village.
