“Feelings?!” Elaine waved her hand and said solemnly: “Oh my daughter, you don’t understand! In this world, the pauper may be with a bit of so-called feelings, but the rich definitely don’t!”
As he said, Elaine said with a certain face: “These rich people, all of them are unprofitable guys, all of their energy is focused on making money, and I can’t wait to sh!t to use it. Click to create a little value, so it is impossible to come to a small place to waste time!”
“The only explanation is that they have taken a fancy to something in this small place. Maybe, what valuable treasure is hidden in Aurous Hill!”
Claire said helplessly, “Mom, it was a very simple thing, how can you say it is so mysterious…”
Elaine said solemnly: “Don’t believe it! When I was young, I heard my grandma say that their hometown was in a mountain nest, and they didn’t see a few outsiders throughout the year. The rich would never go to them, but from the beginning of the year, there will be several wealthy people who go to them to donate money to build temples, some donate land temples, and some donate Guanyin temples, saying that their gods are very effective…”
“The people in the mountains are very puzzled, thinking, I haven’t heard of any very efficacious gods here. If there are real gods, how can we be so poor and have a meal without a meal? This is not logical, right?”
Claire nodded: “It’s a bit strange, then?”
Elaine said: “Then it has been this way for several years, dozens of large and small temples have been built, but everyone is still poor and dying, until a great detective from Eastcliff came all the way to investigate the case in the mountains. Everyone realized that those rich people came to the mountain to donate to the temple to steal a tomb from the Han Dynasty!”
“Ah? Tomb robbers?” Claire said embarrassingly, “Mom, are you reading too many novels? Where are so many tomb robbers in novels!”
Elaine said seriously: “Do you think the tomb robber in the novel is mysterious? I tell you, there are more tomb robbers in reality than described in the novel!”
After that, Elaine rolled her sleeves and gestured with her hands excitedly: “I tell you, that tomb is under the mountain behind your grandma’s house, but the villagers have never known it! In those few years, All kinds of tomb robbers used the donations to build the temple and punched dozens of holes under the temple, almost hollowing out the bottom of the mountain!”
