Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan exchanged a glance; they had already discovered the reason. As they had suspected, there was a formation surrounding the construction site, but it was now dilapidated, allowing the workers to enter. However, no matter how dilapidated it was, it was still a formation, and it would automatically attack if triggered.
Led by the foreman, Su Jinyue and a few others toured the entire construction site.
"You haven't seen it before, but as soon as our workers start working, strong winds blow up here, and several of our workers have been injured. Boss, are you going to reimburse the workers' compensation?" the foreman asked. He had signed a contract when he contracted this construction site, but how could he have known that this site would be so dangerous? The workers' hospitalization expenses would be very high.
Han Yiyuan glanced at Su Jinyue and nodded, "Yeah."
Upon hearing this, the foreman's dark face immediately lit up with a happy smile. "Boss, you're so kind! I want to thank you on behalf of our workers." He had been worried sick about the workers' compensation these days. Although the workers' injuries weren't serious, the daily hospitalization fees added up to a considerable amount. If he paid for the hospitalization fees, he wouldn't be able to pay his wages. How would the other workers survive?
"Han Yiyuan, Yihan and I will go look somewhere else. You wait here for us." Su Jinyue said to Han Yiyuan. She and Yihan used their spiritual sense to scan and found that there was an ancient tomb underground. The formation was probably designed to protect the tomb.
Arriving at the back of the construction site, Zhan Yihan waved several formation flags, and then he and Su Jinyue used an earth escape technique to enter the underground.
Soon, the two arrived at the ancient tomb. Besides the main burial chamber, there were sixteen smaller chambers. These chambers contained no coffins, but rather burial objects, a testament to the lord's prominent status. Formations were also set up around the chambers, but their low level, and after years of erosion, had become dilapidated. In another hundred years, the formations would completely disappear.
"This should be the tomb of the King of Wu," Zhan Yihan said, looking away. In ancient times, Sucheng was called Wu, and the king here was the King of Wu.
"Yeah." Su Jinyue nodded in agreement.
"What are your plans?" Zhan Yihan asked.
"Since it's an ancient tomb, let's hand it over to the government," Su Jinyue said. Every ancient tomb holds immense historical significance, and destroying it could create a historical gap. She didn't want to be blamed.
"Yeah." Zhan Yihan smiled and ruffled Su Jinyue's hair. He had the same idea.
Su Jinyue smiled playfully, "Let's go up."
"Okay." Zhan Yihan grabbed Su Jinyue's hand and used an earth escape technique.
Seeing Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan coming back, Han Yiyuan and Qian Moli immediately went to greet them.
"You're finally back. We were so worried." Qian Moli secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they are okay!
"What is there to worry about? We are not children." Su Jinyue said with a smile.
"The foreman just told us a lot about what's going on here. He said a worker went missing here and they couldn't find him." Thinking of what the foreman had just told them, Qian Moli couldn't help but shudder. It was so scary!
Su Jinyue shook her head and smiled, "Don't believe those things." The missing worker just walked into the gap of the formation. Yi Han had already broken the formation, and the missing worker would be found soon.
"Boss, I'm not lying. Ershanzi has been missing for two days, and we still haven't found him," the foreman said confidently. If he hadn't signed the contract, he would have run away long ago. This place is really scary, especially at night.
"Foreman, Ershanzi has been found. He fell into a ditch." A worker ran over shouting.
"Found him? Is he okay?" the foreman asked in surprise. It was good that he had found him, otherwise he really didn't know how to explain to Ershanzi's family. Ershanzi had come out to work with him.
"I'm fine, just a little weak after two days of hunger. But that ditch clearly didn't exist before," the worker said. If it weren't for the water in the ditch and the weeds growing in it, he would have thought it was newly dug.
"Where is that ditch? Take me there," the foreman asked. He had been here for almost half a month and hadn't found any ditch nearby.
"It's just behind our construction site." The worker hurriedly led the way.
"Let's go and take a look too." Su Jinyue said, and she and Zhan Yihan had already caught up with the foreman and others.
Han Yiyuan and Qian Moli followed closely behind. After hearing so many strange things from the foreman, they were also full of curiosity about this construction site.
When the group arrived at the back of the construction site, they found that there was indeed a two-meter-deep and one-meter-wide ditch in front of them. The ditch was covered with weeds, and if they were not careful, they would indeed ignore the existence of the ditch.
"I discovered Ershanzi here." The worker pointed to the ditch in front of him.
Everyone walked to the front of the ditch and looked at it carefully. They could vaguely see water under the weeds.
"What is that?" Qian Moli pointed at a blue-black object covered with weeds.
Han Yiyuan also saw the thing. He reached out and peeled off the weeds, only to see that it was a round piece of bronze. The bronze piece was embedded in the soil, with only its shape exposed outside.
Han Yiyuan used his hands to remove the dirt covering the bronze piece, only to see totems and some incomprehensible characters on it. "There are pictures and characters on the bronze piece, which seem to be ancient characters."
"Why don't we take it out and take a look?" Qian Moli suggested.
Han Yiyuan looked at Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan, and seeing them nod, he reached out and dug up the bronze piece.
