Husband-in-Law: Reborn Peasant Girl Busy Farming

Chapter 551

"Impossible!" Cen Ju retorted eagerly, "I saw it with my own eyes!"

Tang Luoyu unhurriedly picked up the teacup with bare hands, and took a sip as if nothing had happened, "Who says seeing is believing? You haven't dug up the grave, how do you know that the informer must be buried inside?"

As soon as these words came out, Cen Ju was speechless. Everyone was startled and looked at each other. A gust of cold air blew through the hall, and everyone in the hall shivered. .

Tang Luoyu put down the teacup in his hand, and said in a steady voice, "Since the black hands behind the scenes want to eradicate more than 100 members of the Xue family at once, they must have a very careful plan, how could this informer be discovered so easily? You guys? Don't you find it strange?"

"It makes sense," Jing Shan nodded, the expression on his face became colder, "It's hard to tell that this person is dead just from a grave."

Xue Lince and Tang Luoyu looked at each other, and the husband and wife nodded to each other, silently affirming each other's thoughts.

Cen Ju looked confused, noticing that the atmosphere was different, but he didn't understand what everyone had decided secretly, and asked in confusion, "Then... what are the two adults going to do?"

"I know that this matter has to be done personally," Jing Shan said with serious eyes, "We have to go and see for ourselves."

Tang Luoyu put the teacup aside, nodded in agreement, "It's not too late, we're leaving now."

Hearing Tang Luoyu's suggestion to see it with his own eyes, Cen Ju immediately straightened his face, blowing his beard and staring.

Everyone ignored him and got up one after another to go look for the tomb. Cen Ju was displeased, but he could only lead the way for the sake of Xue Lince and Jing Shan.

The suburb was not far away, and it happened to be Xue Lince's holiday again, so everyone set off soon.

The sky is still gray, covered with a thick layer of dark clouds, the sun can't see through at all, and the wind is blowing, like cold and greasy big hands brushing the skin, sometimes enveloping a burst of sand, making people unable to open their eyes. open your eyes.

The wheels of the carriage started to turn, and the monotonous murmur was heard in their ears. After walking for about a stick of incense, everyone stopped at the outskirts of the city.

As soon as the curtain of the car was lifted, the cold wind blew on the face, everyone couldn't help shivering a few times, Tang Luoyu sneezed, Xue Lince quickly took off the cloak on his body, and put it on for her.

"It's just ahead," Cen Ju pointed to a place on the hillside, "there is a barren hill full of waist-high weeds, everyone beware of poisonous snakes."

Everyone has long been used to seeing the world, and they are not afraid at all when they hear snakes. Ke Ran urged to lead the way, and Cen Ju pulled his face longer, and then led everyone to the hillside.

The hillside is low, so there are no jagged rocks and tall trees that block the sky, and there are paths made by many people in the weeds, so it is not difficult to walk.

Xue Lince walked ahead to clear the way for Tang Luoyu, supporting her with one hand, lest she suddenly fall.

After walking for a while, everyone was already sweating profusely from the heat, and felt cool and comfortable when the cold wind blew in. After pushing away the layers of weeds, everyone finally came to a relatively flat place.

The vegetation here is sparse and the soil is soft, making it really easy to dig.

"It's over there, please follow me."

Cen Ju quickened his pace and passed by. There were obvious traces of people walking on the road here, and most of the weeds up to his waist had been cut down, presumably it was the road that Cen Ju had walked before.

Everyone followed, and indeed they saw a small raised slope in a place where weeds were luxuriant.

The small soil slope is semicircular, covered with a layer of stones, surrounded by green weeds, even the tombstones are covered by grasses, Cen Ju stepped forward, pushed the grass blades away, and covered the ground with a layer of grass. Mossy inscriptions are revealed.

"Look, everyone," although he was speaking to everyone, he looked at Tang Luoyu with dissatisfaction, "I'd like to see if the inscription on it is the informer."

Everyone squeezed their heads together and quickly browsed through the inscription. Jing Shan only sneered, as if he didn't believe it. Tang Luoyu said bluntly: "It's really just a deserted grave, and this inscription is nothing. Dig it out and see for yourself.”

Cen Ju's unhappy face darkened immediately, and when he spoke, he said with a strange expression, "Ma'am, just take a look, this tombstone has already grown so many weeds, it means that it was here a long time ago, maybe they expected it to be here a long time ago." When we came back, we dug the grave and set up a trap?"

Tang Luoyu didn't want to talk nonsense with him, "Why is Mr. Cen obstructing you like this? They say to break the casserole and ask the end. Now that we have reached this point, is it possible that we can easily be convinced after reading this inscription?"

Cen Ju was displeased, and was about to continue to refute, but was stopped by Xue Lince.

"Luo Yu is right." He took a step forward and squeezed Tang Luoyu's hand in his palm. "Anyway, I came here for him today, so I just dig it open. I want to see what's the secret behind it."

The rest of the people agreed, and Qi Qi took out the tools, because they planned to dig the grave at the beginning, and everyone brought shovels and hoes when they went up the mountain, so it is not too troublesome to decide to dig the grave now.

Cen Ju frowned, feeling unlucky, he dared not do anything for a long time, and finally shrank aside.

Chai Jin and Ke Ran were used to walking in the rivers and lakes, and never believed in these ghosts and monsters. They raised their hands and went up to pick up the rocks covering the outermost surface. Jing Shan and Xue Lince each held a shovel, and started digging without saying a word.

Tang Luoyu was pregnant and couldn't do rough work, so she could only watch the digging under the tree.

The four of them dug the soil very quickly, within half a stick of incense, the mound was leveled, and about a cup of tea later, a deep hole had been dug in the ground, but they missed the coffin lid for a long time.

Gradually, the deep pit was as high as half a person, but it was still unimpeded under the soil, and everyone became more and more suspicious.

Could it be that there is no coffin in this pit at all, it is clearly a fake grave?

An uneasy cloud rose above their heads. The four digging men were already sweating profusely. Tang Luoyu, who was waiting by the side, also clenched the hem of his clothes tightly, with some sweat dripping from his palms. Cen Ju was even more nervous, his heart was pounding. "Bang" beating on the chest, like a drum, followed by shortness of breath.

When the atmosphere was getting anxious, Xue Lince's shovel suddenly hit a hard object and made a "squeak" sound. His heart tightened, and he quickly pushed the soil away, only to see a piece of black firewood exposed under the dark brown soil. There was already a clear mark on it from his shovel.

He was overjoyed, and hurriedly greeted other people who were still digging in the four corners, "Here! We dug it!"

Everyone was startled, and hurried over with hoes and shovels, digging hard towards the place where Xue Lince was standing. Tang Luoyu, who was watching from the side, couldn't hold back, and stepped forward to look into the pit.
