Claire laughed 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 Elaine saw that Claire did not seem to believe in anything that she was saying at all, she could not help but blurt out anxiously, "Seriously, Claire! Why don't you believe anything I say? Over the years, many tombs have opened up near my grandmother's house. A particularly famous tomb, the Halchester Tomb, was unearthed not too far away from my grandmother's house. Have you heard of the Halchester Tomb before?" Claire 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?!" Elaine hummed as she said, "Lettell 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 alarmed the villagers nearby. It was only after that that the talents from the cultural relics department found out that there was a large tomb there after the villagers called the police. A t that time, Halchester's wife's tomb was also in front of his. However, it had already been robbed and emptied by tomb robbers a long tago. I heard that there were dozens of tunnels built from all directions leading into the tomb!" 5 Claire was dumbfounded when she heard this, and she asked, "Are these tomb robbers truly so powerful?" 3 Elaine 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 o the tomb robbers that you read about in 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 occurred in the provincial capital city in the central region. More than two hundred kilograms of cordyceps sinensis which was worth millions of dollars was stolen from a shop overnight. Do you know how the other party managed to steal the cordyceps sinensis?" Claire shook her head as she said, "How did they steal it?" 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 Claire 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 Elaine looked at Claire before she asked, "Do you believenow?" 1 Claire nodded as she said, "Mom, I believe you..." 1 Elaine 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 place to make a donation there? The sgoes for Loreen. If she is not gaining ssort of profit or benefit in Aurous Hill, why else would the eldest young lady of a wealthy and influential family in Eastcliff be wasting her precious there? This is the reason why I said that there must be ssort of great treasure that we do no know of in Aurous Hill!" Claire frowned as she said, "But how could there possibly be any treasure in Aurous Hill? Even if there is an ancient tomb here, it is simply impossible for the Thomas family to chere to rob the tomb, right?" 5

Elaine replied, "The great treasure that I am talking about might Adt necessarily be an ancient tomb! Perhaps there are shidden great figures in Aurous Hill!"

Claire laughed as she said, "A great figure? What kind of great figuren could possibly arouse the interest of the wealthy and influential family in Eastcliff?" 6

As she spoke, Claire pointed at Charlie before she teased, "Many people in Aurous Hill are alwaysm calling your son-in-law Master Wade'. They even said that your son-in-law is the True Dragon in this world. So, could he be that great figure, then?" X
