Digging up the grave was hard work! Zhao Yu and Cui Lizhu began at sunrise and were still digging after the sun had set!
At that very moment, the cemetery was quiet and desolate. Although the two of them were covered in sweat, they felt a chill run down their spines.
Cui Lizhu even said a prayer as she dug. "Mum, protect me. Mum, protect me…"
Thanks to his metal detector, Zhao Yu was able to pinpoint the location of the box accurately. He reckoned that soon he would be able to dig the box up!
He had planned this all out long ago. Once he confirmed that it really was Tao Xiang's treasure in the metal box, he would immediately report it to the police and request local backup. If Cui Lizhu were to try any funny business, he would resort to force, as he wouldn't want her to make another mistake!
Dong!
Just then, Cui Lizhu's shovel hit on a tough object and made a clashing sound that only metal would make. Cui Lizhu was thrilled!
