The modern version of this legend has been dedicated to those who live in "Los Llanos Orientales” and pleased us by telling us this and many other popular legends of their region.

Once "Juan Machete" had buried all the money he had left, he just got faded. He buried it as far as he could in order not to have anybody trying to unbury such a curse; if they did, they regretted that wrong choice. Perhaps he did it wanting to avoid they did not suffer just like he did or just because he was quite a selfish person.
It is known that some people do not like to be doing well but would rather go and verify whether or not that legend is true. This is where Ulises appears. Ulises was a young man whose mother would have preferred to buy the most expensive puppy instead of being the mother of a good-for-nothing boy. He did not know what life was, he knew when it was time to wake up and eat something because his body said so.
On a good day, Ulises chose to visit his best and worst friend; they had been meeting because they both carried a great desire to leave poverty behind. They lived in a small town where "Juan Machete’s" legend was the story that children listened to before they fell asleep; this had given them an idea to achieve their goal. That scary legend did not disturb them as children and it did not do it then either anyway.
The legend said that the town was raised where “the treasure” had been buried, more exactly, at the cemetery. They would not lose anything if they went and had a look at that out there, they did not have anything else to spend their time on, it was a good day to die as well and that would have given them something to be recognized. The only fools who tempted the devil.
Ulises and his friend got to the cemetery when it was dark, waited for the guard to go, and then they got in; everything seemed to be going as expected, it was an easy plan to follow anyway; going in, unburying what there was down there, going out and then being the richest in the town. What could go wrong?
They should have considered why no one else had tried to find “the treasure” even if it was that effortless to do so. The most unusual thing that happened was that "Juan Machete" allowed them to take his money and did not show up to do what people said he did to those who wanted to steal what was his. Ulises and his friend had made it! But, was it that easy?
