At night, the moon quietly hid behind the clouds, and everyone in the village drifted off to sleep.
Mo Yan set off at that moment. She heard a sound as soon as she stepped out the door, and when she turned around, she saw Mo Jin smiling at her.
What can we do? We'll just have to bring them along.
Mo Yan took Mo Jin's hand and quietly led him out the door.
This was Mo Jin's first time going on an adventure with his sister. His sister said she would take him to see some mysterious places.
Upon arriving at the ancestral graves, Mo Yan looked at Mo Jin. "Aren't you afraid?"
“Don’t be afraid,” my sister said. “This is where our ancestors are buried. They will definitely protect us, so I’m not afraid.”
I was actually a little scared, but I wasn't afraid when I was with my sister.
"Yes, don't be afraid. Your sister wants to find out what Dad wants, that's why we came here. Don't be surprised or scream when you see anything. Let's see what's in here, okay?"
Mo Yan was actually a little surprised that Xiao Jin wasn't afraid and even wanted to come here with her.
She thought Xiao Jin probably didn't know what was inside, but she didn't expect him to know.
Mo Yan began to find her bearings and quickly located it under the moonlight. She then stepped on it, and soon a grave opened.
Mo Jin stared wide-eyed at the scene, her mouth agape, but she covered her mouth tightly with both hands to prevent herself from making a sound.
Mo Yan led her inside, and soon the grave was restored to its original state.
After they went inside, they saw a tunnel. Following it, they quickly arrived at the gate of the ancient tomb. The inscriptions there indicated that this was the final resting place of thousands of Mo family ancestors, a place that didn't even exist in history.
The Mo family's ancestor was a prince who spent his life on the battlefield. Buried here is the prince's daughter; I was the Grand Princess who protected the nation during that dynasty. And there is a treasure within—the Spirit Serpent Pearl.
After the princess's death, the emperor and the prince were heartbroken and took out the Spirit Serpent Pearl as a burial item, hoping that it would allow the princess to achieve perfect merit in the future.
At the same time, Mo Yan remembered that she had seen that map, which was probably a map of the ancient tomb.
She also saw that the map was kept by each generation of clan chief, and the previous clan chief was Mo Yan's grandfather.
Of course, because no one could understand those words, they didn't know the secret and thought it was just an unimportant picture.
At the same time, they didn't tell future generations about this place. They only told everyone that it was a village left by their ancestors and that it absolutely could not be altered.
Mo Yan felt that after Mo Ran went out, she must have met someone who told her about this and that's why she came back here.
"Sister, where is this place? I can't understand any of the words."
“This is the final resting place of our ancestors, and my sister wants to tell the country.”
Mo Yan immediately took out her phone and made a call to the State Administration of Culture. At the same time, she started a live stream.
Of course, she didn't let the little guy into the scene, and even the live stream account was a secondary account, but there were definitely a lot of viewers.
She wanted to expose this place to everyone, preventing the person behind it from achieving their goals.
The Cultural Affairs Bureau received the call, immediately watched the live stream, and quickly saw what was happening inside, and was utterly shocked.
You should know that their country has never encountered such an ancient tomb before. The entire tomb is exceptionally bright, filled with luminous pearls.
"Hey, don't move. We're coming right away. We'll get all the local resources to protect you."
Mo Yan looked at the doorway outside calmly. "We can't get out either. The outside has sealed itself off. Unless we find an exit, we can't get out. It's okay, I have plenty of battery. I'll just livestream from here and see if we can get out."
Cultural Affairs Bureau: "Don't move, don't move! We'll get experts to rescue you right away. How are you? Is there any air or oxygen inside? How long can you hold out? Where are you?"
They can't afford to ignore this; it might be a place that can change their understanding of history.
"My address is..." Mo Yan gave the address directly and also explained the situation here. "The air here is still quite fresh, and we have enough food for tomorrow."
"Okay, okay, then take a look at that door. Our experts will be here immediately. Let's save electricity."
"good."
Meanwhile, Mo Ran, who had finally managed to trick Fang Meng into transferring the house, was fast asleep, dreaming that if he could find that place, he would surely rise to prominence from then on.
Mo Yan led Mo Jin to examine the door, but ultimately they couldn't find a way in, or rather, Mo Yan didn't want to find one.
After the experts found it, they immediately began to study it, but to no avail. Finally, at dawn, Mo Yan returned to the ground with her younger brother.
The government had already surrounded the area, and experts had rushed over. Mo Yan led them down.
Seeing that they immediately surrounded the area, they realized that there was no one in this ancestral graveyard.
In reality, it was just a cover-up. Mo Yan's other ancestors lived in another place, and each generation was named according to the order of that character, and the burial location was also particular.
As the discoverer, Mo Yan directly submitted all the information, and she was truly open and honest in sharing everything she knew.
The village was quickly relocated as planned, but everything there had to be preserved. The compensation remained the same.
Mo Yan wanted to help study this ancient tomb. Mo Yan translated it directly, but of course, Mo Yan couldn't explain why she could understand the ancient tomb.
When Mo Ran woke up, his beautiful dream was shattered, and he was in a terrible state, utterly dejected.
He rushed straight outside the cordon and kept calling Mo Yan's name.
"Mo Yan, Mo Yan, get out here right now, get out here!"
Mo Yan came out directly, her gaze towards Mo Ran indifferent. She walked over and asked, "Is there something you need?"
"Why? This is our family's ancestral grave! Why would you do this? Are you out of your mind? Are you as mentally unstable as your mother? What's so good about reputation? Does it bring you fame and fortune, or make you the richest person in the world? Do you even know what I've lost?"
Mo Ran collapsed instantly; what he had always insisted on had been directly destroyed by Mo Yan.
After they left, they took many detours. They didn't have much ability to begin with, so they could only do manual labor, but they couldn't earn much money and still had to take care of their children.
When they were destitute and could not make ends meet, someone appeared before him, gave him money and status, and told him everything about his family. Only then did he realize what his family had been guarding.
They were clearly living in wealth, but they were completely unaware of it. When he returned, he discovered that their area was slated for demolition.
