Chapter 342
The fatty nodded: "Yes, you can rest assured about that. The people in the village have long been prepared. I'll call them later to notify them, and they will come over to clean it up themselves. You just need to dig."
"Okay! No problem!" Fang Yang nodded and walked along the winding road to the mountainside.
This mountain was not high, looking like it was less than 100 meters.
After getting closer, he saw an excavator parked on a relatively flat grassy area.
Fang Yang didn't say a word and climbed into the driver's cab to start working.
The fatty also took out his phone and made a call.
As the buzzing sound of the excavator came out, the bamboo forest on the ground was intertwined, and very sturdy bamboo roots lay horizontally underground one by one.
Every time, he had to dig very deep to pull them out by the roots.
It can be seen that if people were asked to dig, this bamboo forest would take forever.
After a while, the villagers came to the scene one after another.
Looking at the fallen big bamboo, they all consciously ran over and dragged them away.
This also saved Fang Yang a lot of trouble; after all, if this stuff was piled up here, he wouldn't be able to dig at all.
There were also many women and aunties who saw the summer bamboo shoots that had been dug up and placed to the side, and they quickly snatched them away; this stuff is also a delicacy when taken back for stir-frying.
As time passed, one big bamboo after another was dug up and dragged away.
The baskets brought by the aunties next to them were all filled with summer bamboo shoots.
It was already almost eleven o'clock at noon.
It stands to reason that the thick fog should have dissipated by this time, but looking at the smog around, there was no sign of it dissipating at all, and the weather was still gray and very stuffy.
Even Fang Yang was sweating from working there, let alone those villagers who were constantly moving bamboo.
Watching the bamboo forest disappear bit by bit, the bamboo on the edge was basically dug out.
However, as expected, an accident happened.
Just after Fang Yang made this shovel, he could clearly feel that there was a foreign object blocking it.
He had this feeling before when digging bamboo roots, but it was very small, and it broke with a little force.
But this time it was different; he clearly felt that the resistance was much greater.
With a feeling of confusion, Fang Yang first dug away the bamboo, and then dug down bit by bit.
As a result, as he dug, he suddenly saw white things mixed in the dirt.
Not only Fang Yang, but many people also discovered it.
The cameraman hurriedly exclaimed: "Brother! Look, what is that?"
Fang Yang ignored him and continued to dig.
The white substance on the ground didn't look like a whole, but rather one by one.
A bad premonition appeared in Fang Yang's heart.
Sure enough, as the bucket dug deeper again.
A large piece of dirt was brought up, and along with it was a skeleton!
This skeleton looked like a human one no matter how you looked at it.
Seeing the skeleton, the aunties next to them were so scared that they dropped their baskets and shouted in horror: "My God, there's a dead person!"
"Run! Oh my god!"
For a time, many people were so scared that they scrambled down the mountain.
Only some brave villagers were left looking curiously.
"This seems to be a dead person."
"I really didn't expect that our village would dig up a dead person. I haven't heard of any family missing anyone?"
"Maybe it was buried here by someone from out of town."
"That's not right. Look at this bamboo; I don't know how many years old it is. This person was buried underneath, so he must have been dead for many years."
Listening to the discussion of the crowd, Fang Yang jumped out of the car and walked over.
He also saw the skull and pelvis buried in the dirt, and it was estimated that the lower body was also buried under the dirt.
According to the past, the system would definitely give a prompt in this situation, but now there was none, which only meant that it needed to be dug out completely.
The cameraman asked in confusion: "Brother, did you find anything?"
Fang Yang shook his head, returned to the driver's cab, and continued to dig.
The fatty next to him couldn't hold back and took out his phone to call the police.
For a time, his big eyes stared at the excavator's bucket without blinking, wanting to see if it was really a person.
Until five minutes later, after the skull and his lower body were dug out.
All the villagers were a little panicked.
"It really is a person!"
"Hiss~~ I'm a little afraid to want this bamboo now."
"That's right, these bamboo shoots, you must not eat them. They all grew by absorbing human essence. Eating them is equivalent to eating... Ugh~~"
"Damn! Stop talking! I dug a lot here last year!! Ugh~"
【Popularity】 +1+1+1+1.
——【Seeing the villagers' reaction reminds me of a major murder case from a few years ago. A pig killer killed many people, then dismembered them in his own yard, and finally gave them to neighbors to eat. To avoid suspicion, he specifically said it was ostrich meat, and they all ate it. Just imagine, what would their reaction be after knowing the result...】
——【Fang Yang digging up corpses is not once or twice; I'm already used to it. I would only find it strange if he didn't dig one up. Speaking of which, this bamboo forest looks like it has some history; this person must have been dead for many years.】
——【There is such a big smog there today, and I always feel that something is wrong. As long as he doesn't dig the coal mine shaft to collapse today, that's fine. There are hundreds of coal miners down there; if it collapses, they won't be able to be saved. Then he would really become a sinner through the ages.】
——【I didn't think the pollution there was severe before, but looking at this smog today, I can imagine how bad the environment is there. I originally planned to settle in Xihe City, but now I'm a little unsure. I just checked their White Cloud Production Base online; the four big chimneys are truly terrifying.】
Fang Yang jumped out of the car again and walked to the skeleton.
The system panel in front of him suddenly popped up.
【Name: Li Tiedan】
【Age: 20】
【Identity: Chinese Anti-Japanese Revolutionary Army】
【Cause of Death: Bamboo Torture】
【Bamboo Torture, a cruel punishment by Japan during World War II. Prisoners of war were tied to newly sprouted bamboo shoots, unable to move. Using the fastest-growing bamboo, the rapidly growing bamboo would pierce the person's body directly within three days...】
After reading the system introduction, Fang Yang stood there for a full five minutes.
The cameraman walked over to ask what happened, but found that Fang Yang's eyes were covered with red bloodshot eyes, and that scene scared him so much that he didn't dare to speak.
This was the first time he had seen such an expression. As Fang Yang's little sidekick, he knew that Fang Yang's anger had reached its peak.
But he couldn't understand why a person who had been dead for many years would make him so angry.
Could it be his ancestor?

After a while, Fang Yang took a deep breath, turned around, and said slowly: "I suspect there is more than just this one skeleton underneath."
As soon as these words were spoken, a chill went from head to toe for everyone, and even the brave villagers couldn't handle it.
The fatty adjusted his construction helmet and asked uncertainly: "Really? Why?"
Looking at everyone's confused eyes, Fang Yang sighed: "Have you heard of bamboo torture?"
"Bamboo torture?"
"What is that?"
"A cruel torture that uses bamboo to kill people."
Everyone looked at each other, having never heard of it.
Fang Yang didn't continue to explain; he just wanted to continue digging along this area to see if there were other skeletons.
He couldn't save their lives, but he could let their remains go to where they should rest in peace.
With the buzzing sound of the excavator continuing.
One bamboo after another fell.
The villagers were all a little scared. The cameraman knew that Fang Yang was not right, so he put down the camera and helped drag the bamboo away to facilitate further digging.
The speed of digging this time was much slower, mainly because he was afraid of accidentally damaging their remains.
Sure enough, ten minutes later, another skeleton was dug out under a bamboo with a very dark color.
