"What are you looking at? I told you to look. I've already beaten the third brother. So, are you going to drag him along with you?"
As he said this, he slapped him twice.
Liu Gensheng felt that his face was almost numb, and blood was coming out of the corner of his mouth. He looked like he was about to cry, and he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
"Grandpa, I was wrong. Please stop hitting me. I always listen to the Third Brother. Can't you please give me some face?"
"Humph, why don't you get up, you coward."
Old man Liu vented his anger, turned his head to look at the person beside him, and shouted: "Old Third, you are a good kid."
When Director Liu heard him being called, his heart jumped into his throat. Hearing that he was being praised, his expression became a little unnatural. He said shamefully, "I'm sorry, Grandpa. I should have come back to see you myself."
"Oh, it's okay. You're the director and you're very busy. There are so many important things waiting for you to do. It doesn't matter. Now hurry up and dig. I'm itching to death."
"Okay, let's dig quickly."
Not long after, someone shouted: "Oh my god, there are really bugs, or termites, such a big nest, how long has it been here, I don't know where they came from."
Upon hearing this, Director Liu quickly stepped forward, stood at the edge of the pit and looked down. Sure enough, a huge nest came into view, with dense termites crawling on it. He swallowed subconsciously.
He murmured, "No wonder the old man was itching. There are too many termites..."
He stood up and said, "Keep digging, follow the traces and see where the old nest is. Be sure to clean it out once and for all, otherwise it won't be long before it starts to grow again."
Everyone nodded and worked hard.
Seeing this, Liu Gensheng felt as if his mouth was blocked by cotton and he couldn't utter a word. His face turned redder and redder, and he was so ashamed that he was the one who wasted time.
Why didn’t I notice it before? If I had been more careful and discovered the termite nest earlier, the old man might not have gone to find the third son. Alas, I am so useless.
The more they dug, the more they found something wrong. How could there be a passage in this termite nest? The nest was so big, and it wasn't the source. How terrifying must the source be?
Dashan climbed up from the bottom, looking a little ugly.
"Uncle Liu, there's something wrong with this nest. Look at that passage, why is it pointing towards Ghost Hill? If this isn't the source nest, how big would it be? I wonder how terrifying it is."
"With so few of us, we don't know how long it will take to dig. We should send an excavator to find out what's at the source. It's incredible that so many termites can gather here."
When Director Liu saw this, his face became heavy. He looked at the sky and decided to start digging early, otherwise they would not be able to finish digging before dark. Who knows what will happen at night.
He immediately called for an excavator.
"Okay, I've called two machines over. They'll be here soon. Please wait a moment and clean up the termites in the tomb first. Otherwise, I won't be able to sleep tonight."
After Director Liu finished making the arrangements, he walked directly towards Su Chen, frowning: "Master Su, can you see what's going on? We have never seen such a large nest here."
Su Chen calculated, looked towards the location of Ghost Hill, and pointed: "Director Liu, what is that direction?"
"Ghost Hillside. I heard from the older generation that when I was very young, I saw a battlefield there. It was an ancient battlefield. I saw war horses and people in armor. I guess it's all rumors."
"Well, let's wait for the excavator to come. The feng shui here is good. No wonder the old man doesn't want to go to the city."
Director Liu nodded, his expression relaxed. "Yes, the older generation said that we even had a prince here. He wasn't a royal relative, but he was crowned king based on his military exploits."
"Some people also say that the prince of a different surname is buried in the mountains, but no one knows exactly where. Some people even go into the mountains to shop for treasures."
"But there have been several earthquakes here, and the location has long been lost. Every person who went in died. Gradually, the rumors became more and more outrageous, and no one dared to go there anymore."
Su Chen took note of it secretly and said nothing more.
