"Xiao Ye, I found it!"

The next afternoon, the sun was shining, and the dazzling sunlight shone directly from the window to the desk, making people lazy and want to sleep. Xue Ying rushed into the classroom like a gust of wind, didn't bother to wipe off the sweat, and threw a pile of data on my desk with an excited expression.

"What is this?" I casually flipped through a few pages and looked up to ask her.

Xue Ying glared at me: "This is the ******** that people painstakingly found from the school's reference room, and I found that ten to fifteen years ago, there were seven people named Li Ping who were in the third year of high school. ”

"This little girl is still angry with herself...... I laughed and slowly knocked on the table with my hand, and asked in a deep voice: "Then have you found out which class of students is that Li Ping in the school legend?" ”

"Isn't that easy?" Xue Ying said angrily: "Didn't it be mentioned in the school legend, ...... more than ten years ago" Her voice gradually lowered, and she thought hard in her mind for a while before she suddenly realized that she said loudly: "That's right! In the school legend, it is only said that more than ten years ago, there was a senior high school girl named Li Ping who was raped by the principal's son. After a long time, we didn't know what class of students she was in! ”

"In fact, if you want to find out which class the legendary Li Ping belongs to, it's not impossible, just check the school's graduate movement records. There should be one in the data room. "I looked downstairs through the window on the left.

"Graduate movement records? What's that? Xue Ying asked curiously.

"High school juniors have only one use for every school, that is, to see who is admitted to which prestigious university, how high their admission rate is, etc., which can be used to put gold on their faces. Our school is inherently snobbish, and there should be a detailed record of this. Go and check the movements of all the people named Li Ping after graduation from twenty years ago to ten years ago, if anyone doesn't have one, it should be the one you are looking for. ”

"So there is still this way...... Xue Ying supported her head with her hands and looked at me strangely: "Xiaoye, are you really only fifteen years old?" I could have understood so many things I couldn't have imagined......"

What an exaggeration! I didn't bother to pay attention to her, and pointed out the window, "Did you see that there is about thirty-year-old Ojisan next to the lotus pond?" That guy has been smoking for over an hour! ”

"He smokes and doesn't get in the way of you, why do you care so much?" Xue Ying glanced at him and said disdainfully.

"But he seemed nervous, and he kept looking at the classroom." I thought to myself, holding my chin. The man seemed to sense that I was looking at him, and hurriedly threw the cigarette butt in his hand on a coniferous pine whose branches and leaves had begun to wither, and walked away quickly.

"Oops!" I immediately stood up and rushed out of the classroom and ran downstairs, shouting at Xue Ying as I ran: "Tell each boy to carry a bucket to that pine tree, I hope that cigarette butt doesn't cause a fire!" ”

Within a few minutes, the fire burned with a "coax", and the burning became more and more intense. The branches of the coniferous pines already contain a lot of oil, and when the flames are blown by the wind, they immediately become even more intense.

One after another, the surrounding trees were swept into the stubborn fire, and even as we kept pouring water, the fire did not weaken in the slightest.

Finally, we were relieved that the fire extinguishing truck from the fire station drove up, and we were forced to hurry by the fire.

"Who is that guy who has no public morality at all?" I asked with a frown.

The bear standing beside him glanced at the playground and whispered, "That man's name is Zhong Dao, and he is the son of our current principal. ”

"Ah, that person is the hero in the school's legend, the one who raped Li Ping?" Xue Ying opened her eyes wide and said angrily: "After that guy came out of prison, he didn't change his ways at all, just look at his tasteless behavior just now." Such persons should be sentenced to life imprisonment lest they be released and harmed. ”

"Huh? It turned out that he was Zhong Dao...... "I dragged my chin and thought about it, and quickly recalled the information about him that had accumulated in my mind.

This seemingly timid, decadent and cowardly guy seems to be somewhat inconsistent with the image of the extremely vicious, domineering and shameless in the campus legend. Is it because being locked up in prison has worn out his courage and temperament?

I casually raised my head, and happened to see the bear quickly give Zhang Wen a strange look, and then he patted me on the shoulder and said, "Xiaoye, what have you been busy with lately?" You're gone, and you can't find it. ”

"I'm preparing for the exam with Xueying." I said warily.

"Xiaoye, I'll tell you something quietly." Zhang Wen also leaned over, he showed his signature flattering smile, looked around carefully, and then said to me: "Yesterday I found something interesting at the construction site of the playground. Are you free tonight? Let's go and have a look. ”

"I'm not available." Shaking his head categorically, this guy, I don't believe he will find anything interesting.

Zhang Wen leaned into my ear again and whispered, "You will definitely regret it if you don't go." That thing is really interesting, at nine o'clock tonight, after the evening self-study, I, you, Bear and Xueying, the four of us will gather under the ancient pavilion. You won't be disappointed when the time comes! ”

"Hmph, I'm definitely not going." Seeing that he wanted to be strong again, I was impatient to walk away.

"It's a tomb, a big tomb!" Zhang Wen shouted mysteriously behind me: "No one has entered that tomb yet, Xiaoye, maybe there will be a lot of treasures inside......"

Depend on! These two inexplicable guys are really freaks.

I'm not a money fan, and of course I know quite well that with Zhang Wen and the bears, I will never encounter good things.

Not long ago, I played a game of Disc Immortals with them, and these guys left me and Xue Ying alone, which is the best proof of this.

That incident made me fully aware of their true nature. They are selfish, never care about the lives of others, and they are timid. Every time I want to do something dangerous, I think of the principle of the sea of people, hoping that I can pull a few more people into the water together, and if I die, someone can bury me.

Although I am not a good person, I have an indescribable dislike for people like them.

But that night, I finally went to the place I had made with them with Xueying.

"Do you really believe that there will be treasure in the tomb found by Zhang Wen and Dogbear?" Xue Ying was puzzled that I would be bored and go crazy with them.

I looked at her big black and white eyes and said with a smile: "Do you believe that they will take the initiative to share the benefits with us?" ”

"I don't believe it." Xue Ying shook her head without hesitation, and asked suspiciously, "Then why are you still going?" ”

I looked up at the bleak sky, took a deep breath and replied, "Do you remember the Saucer Immortal we invited a few days ago?" The saucer was still moving after our hands left. I told you the next day that it seemed to want to send us a message, one that was related to the three keywords 'at the water's edge. I thought about it for a long time, but in the end, it was the foundation of the ancient pavilion that inspired me. ”

"Foundation?" Xue Ying's face was full of confusion: "That inconspicuous thing, what's worth noting?" ”

"Absolutely." While recalling, I said slowly: "The ancient pavilion is said to have been built in the Jiaqing period, and it has a history of about 160 years. And this school was built more than 70 years ago, the ancient pavilion as a cultural relic in the town and the scenery of the school, in order to maintain its original flavor, has always been preserved according to its original appearance, even if there are any major changes in the school, but also try not to touch this ancient pavilion.

In other words, in the past 160 years, the ancient pavilion and the nearby grass and trees have not changed. That is to say, the foundation of the uplifted ancient pavilion was also a product of the time, and it was not added later. ”

"What the hell are you trying to tell me, I don't understand?" Xue Ying was confused.

I scratched my head in annoyance and said, "To put it simply, don't you think the materials used to build the foundation are strange?" ”

Xue Ying pressed her index finger to her lip and thought for a moment, then shook her head honestly.

I went on to explain: "The foundations of the pavilion were all made of large chunks of black rock and yellow clay, which were the most commonly used materials for dams and river embankments in the vicinity at that time. The Qing Dynasty people were very superstitious and generally did not use these to build pavilions for rest. Unless ......"

"Unless this pavilion is by the river!" Xue Ying finally understood what I meant, her whole body shook, she slowly turned her head, and looked at me with frightened eyes, "You mean, what that Saucer Immortal wants to tell us is this message?" ”

"Not bad." I nodded and said, "There is no word 'river' on the gossip graphic paper. I think the meaning of "by the water" should be more "by the river". ”

"That's not right!" Xue Ying suddenly thought of something and asked me, "If there used to be a river under the pavilion, then where is this river now?" The embankment of the pavilion is so high, and the opposite river should not be too small. ”

"I don't know." I shook my head and said, "Just because I don't know, I don't want to let go of any clues." If Zhang Wen's discovery is not a lie, it may be an important clue! ”

Not bad. Below the pavilion is the school's playground, and if my guess is correct, it would have been a river more than 160 years ago.

I don't know what kind of message the Saucer Immortal I invited a few days ago wants to convey to us, but I'm sure that that message must be inextricably linked to the old river.

If Zhang Wenzhen found a tomb on the playground, then this tomb should at least have a long history. Maybe I can find a lot of questions that puzzle me in it......

"That tomb I stumbled upon yesterday afternoon. Recently, the school was preparing to build a new student dormitory on the north side of the playground, so the nearby land has been sealed off and the foundation has been dug more than three meters deep. Yesterday I was bored, so I sneaked into the construction site by myself, trying to wander around, but unexpectedly, it didn't take long to find something very interesting on the ground. ”

Zhang Wen walked in front to show us the way, and kept talking about his great adventure yesterday: "Guess what it is? Ha, it's a human skull that has been blistered into a sauce-colored human skull!

"But I didn't know it at the time, and I thought it was an old gas mask used in a chemical lab, so I stepped on it. I didn't expect it to shatter as soon as I stepped on it, and then I realized that it didn't seem to be plastic, so I began to look around carefully, and found that there were many coffins that had been broken into pieces scattered on the ground not far away......

"And near those coffins, there was a large pit, a rectangular pit about five meters long and more than three meters wide. I couldn't tell the depth of the hole because it was filled with dark brown sewage. But the situation is quite clear: the pit must be a grave, and the migrant workers at the construction site accidentally dug it up and carried the coffin out in the hope of finding some burial goods. ”

Zhang Wen turned his head to look at me and asked, "Xiao Ye, have you ever heard of the legend that is widely spread in this town?" A legend about the treasures of the Chen family? ”
