Chapter 1280: 1280. The Digger (4/5)

Chapter 1280 1280. Digger (45)

However, these people were very tough. After discovering the powerful force possessed by Li Du and his party, they did not give up, but raised their shotguns to confront them.

Li Du was wrong. These people not only had shotguns, but also rifles. It looked like the famous AK-47.

AK-47 and M16 used to be the most produced firearms of the two empires, but Ivan the Great is not holding the M16, but the M4A1 that has been improved many times. In comparison, this weapon is more lethal and combat-effective .

There were a total of six people who ran over. Their bodies were covered with dirt and grass, and they looked as if they had just emerged from the ground.

Several people pointed at Li Du and his party and kept yelling. Li Du couldn't understand Russian, so he first called back the fourth little Hu, Ah Miao. The other party had a gun in his hand, so he couldn't let the little Hu come.

The four little ones were very clever. They also found the guns, and they knew that this thing was terrible. As soon as Li Du made a sound, they ran back immediately, running fast, for fear of being shot.

Big Ivan, Madman and Firecracker were also holding their guns. They looked indifferent, ignoring what the other party was yelling, and kept moving their guns to aim at everyone.

The bullied Caucasian dogs limped back when they saw their masters coming. After just a few fights, they already had several wounds on their bodies.

The only one that was still intact was the greyhound that Ali met. Although it had no wounds, half of its head was swollen, and it was so swollen that it could not even see the eyes on the other side.

The person opposite was still yelling, Li Du stepped forward and asked, "Can you speak English?"

A blond young man among the other six said in English: "Where did you ride your horses? Get out, get out of our territory!"

Li Du pointed to the ground and said, "Is this your territory?"

The blond youth waved his hands violently and shouted: "Of course, this is our territory, what's the matter, what's your opinion?"

The roar of the car engine sounded, and several heavy off-road vehicles roared away, as if a steel giant appeared on the tundra.

The car drove up, and Brother Wolf took people out of the car.

Seeing that there were many people on the other side and armed to the teeth, the faces of the six people changed, and their expressions quickly darkened.

There were two other people in the rear convoy. They were chatting and laughing to watch the fun, but when the heavy off-road vehicle drove up, the two were frightened and hurried to support with their guns.

But at this time, Li Du's superiority in momentum and force was on Li Du's side, and their two pickup trucks were as weak as children's toys in front of heavy off-road vehicles.

The attitude of the blond-haired young man changed, and he said with a stiff face: "Ha, what are you here for? You are also corpse diggers? Then you have to understand the rules, right? There is always a first come, first served, right?"

Li Du looked at the blond young man in surprise, and asked, "Are you diggers?"

The blond youth nodded and said, "Yes, aren't you? Then why are you here?"

There are many strange professions in the Siberian tundra, and the digger is one of them.

As the name suggests, body diggers are people who dig up corpses from the ground, but they are not tomb robbers. Tomb robbery is illegal in all countries. Body diggers do not dig ordinary people's cemeteries, they are looking for unowned tombs.

There have been many wars in Siberia in history. For example, during World War II, when Germany invaded the Soviet Union, the two sides launched a brutal war on Russian soil, causing heavy casualties.

There are also the dynasty replacement wars between Tsarist Russia and the Soviet Union in modern history, the wars that the Soviet Union later fought to counter rebellion for various countries, and the wars between many tribes and ethnic groups in the tundra.

In short, there have been wars in many places on this land, and the bodies of soldiers or civilians who died in the war are buried underground.

Gravediggers dig this kind of place. They are most interested in the battlefields of World War II, and they often go to find the bones of Japanese soldiers.

Because the battlefield is often cleaned in a hurry, many soldiers still have good things on them, such as old-fashioned firearms, watches, gold teeth, various military supplies, and some soldiers have family heirlooms if they are lucky.

Diggers make profits by digging up these things. This industry is controversial in the society, but because diggers also search for the corpses of the Red Army, and they will organize them for protection after they are found, so the government ignores them and acquiesces in this matter. legal existence of the industry.

However, they cannot dig private graves, only war cemeteries.

In order to protect the normal existence of the industry, there are indeed rules in the industry. If a group of diggers arrive at a certain area, they will have the priority excavation rights in this area.

So Li Du said: "That's a misunderstanding, we are not corpse diggers, we are ivory hunters, and we are staying here temporarily..."

While he was talking, a big man on the opposite side chattered to the blond young man.

Li Du asked: "What did this fellow say?"

The blond youth said: "It's nothing, he asked what you guys do, and I was just about to explain to him."

Big Ivan whispered: "He lied, the son of a bitch asked the youth to drive us away, and told him to be tough."

Hearing this, Li Du frowned. He looked at the excavated land around the car in the distance, and thought about releasing the small flying insects.

The blond young man stepped forward and said with a smile, "Hey, everyone, where are you from? Are you not Russian based on your accent?"

Li Du said: "We come from the United States and come here to look for mammoth ivory."

The blond young man nodded: "Oh, that's right. We also dug up mammoth ivory, but it was too difficult, and there were no traces to be found. It can only be done by luck. It's better to be a corpse digger."

Li Du smiled and said, "Being a body digger also requires luck, otherwise you can only dig up a pile of rotten bones, so what can you earn?"

The blond young man said solemnly: "We are diggers not only to make money, but also to appease the dead. More importantly, we can find those ancestors who died fighting for the dignity of the motherland, collect their bones for them, and find another resting place."

Li Du also showed a solemn expression: "Then you are really amazing."

The blond young man laughed again, and said, "Of course, we also need to make money from it. The German stuff is quite valuable. You see, we dug up some good things this time..."

He took out some rusty lighters, belt buckles, spurs, silver crosses and other things from his pocket. Judging by the decoration style, they were indeed German things.

But Li Du didn't think it was just dug out, because these things were too clean.

The little flying insect had already flown to the hole dug next to the car, it got in and took a look, Li Du changed his sight, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

His intuition was right, these people were not looking for relics of the German Army or the Soviet Red Army, there were some coffins scattered about in the holes they dug.

On the battlefield, the two warring parties don't have time to put the corpses of their opponents or comrades in coffins for burial. They usually bury them on the spot.
