Chapter 2020
ireughed as she said, "Mom, the more you talk about it, the more incredulous your story
sounds! You are even talking about digging tunnels now! Do you really think that you are Captain
Mojin?” 5
When ine saw that ire did not seem to believe in anything that she was saying at all, she
could not help but blurt out anxiously, "Seriously, ire! Why don’t you believe anything I say? Over
the years, many tombs have opened up near my grandmother''s house. A particrly famous tomb,
the Halchester Tomb, was unearthed not too far away from my grandmother’s house. Have you
heard of the Halchester Tomb before?"
ire nodded before she said, "I heard that it seems to be a very important archaeological
discovery in history. What is wrong with this tomb?"
"What is wrong with this tomb?!" ine hummed as she said, "Let me tell you, the reason why this
tomb was eventually discovered by the cultural relics department, was because when the tomb
robbers were trying to dig a tunnel, they rmed the vigers nearby. It was only after that that the
talents from the cultural relics department found out that there was arge tomb there after the
vigers called the police. A t that time, Halchester''s wife’s tomb was also in front o f his. However,
it had already been robbed and emptied by tomb robbers a long time ago. I heard that
there were dozens of tunnels built from all directions leading into the tomb!" 5
ire was dumbfounded when she heard this, and she asked, "Are these tomb robbers truly so
powerful?" 3
ine felt a little anxious, and she hurriedly said," You can search online if you don’t believe me!" 1
Charlie, who was sitting aside, nodded in agreement a s he said, "Wife, you are indeed a little
ignorant in regards to this matter. There are actually many powerful craftsmen amongst the folk.
There are many of the tomb robbers that you read about in novels in real life. If you don''t believe
me, you can also ask Dad about it. Many unearthed cultural relics are being privately traded every
year in the antique circle. To put it bluntly, all of these antiques were stolen by the tomb robbers." 4
After he was done speaking, Charlie said again, "About ten to twenty years ago, a cordyceps
sinensis theft case urred in the provincial capital city in the central region. More than two
hundred kilograms of cordyceps sinensis which was worth millions of dors was stolen from a shop
overnight. Do you know how the other party managed to steal the cordyceps sinensis?"
ire shook her head as she said, "How did they steal i t?" 4
Charlie replied, "They dug a tunnel there and stole it. They rented the shop that was directly
opposite the shop that was selling the cordyceps sinensis. After that, they drilled their way tens of
meters underground before they dug a tunnel all the way to the ground below the shop selling the
cordyceps sinensis. Then, they drilled a hole up to the ground and stole all of the cordyceps there."
5
ire was surprised, and she said, "That is really too amazing... 1
Charlie nodded before he said, “Other than their illegal and criminal behavior, their craftsmanship in
drilling holes alone is indeed very powerful." 2
ine looked at ire before she asked, "Do you believe me now?" 1
ire nodded as she said, "Mom, I believe you..." 1

ine hummed slightly before she said, “Then, do you understand what I mean when I say that
everyone would always be pursuing interest and profits? If it weren’t because of the ancient tombs
that were located below the mountains, would the tomb raiders have gone to that kind of poor ce
to make a donation there? The same goes for Loreen. If she is not gaining some sort of profit or
benefit in Aurous Hill, why else would the eldest youngdy of a wealthy and influential family in
Eastcliff be wasting her precious time here? This is the reason why I said that there must be some
sort of great treasure that we do not know of in Aurous Hill!"
ire frowned as she said, "But how could there possibly be any treasure in Aurous Hill? Even if
there i s an ancient tomb here, it is simply impossible for the
Thomas family toe here to rob the tomb, right?" 5
ine replied, "The great treasure that I am talking about might not necessarily be an ancient tomb!
Perhaps there are some hidden great figures in Aurous Hill!”
ireughed as she said, "A great figure? What kind of great figure could possibly arouse the
interest of the wealthy and influential family in Eastcliff?" 6
As she spoke, ire pointed at Charlie before she teased, "Many people in Aurous Hill are always
calling your son-inw ''Master Wade''. They even said that your son-inw is the True Dragon in this
world. So, could he be that great figure, then?"
