When Shen Rong and Changsheng came down from the mountain, they saw a chaos at the intersection.

Countless old people, women and half-grown children were pushed down by the villagers who rushed in from behind. Those people rushed in like a swarm of swarms, as if they saw nothing.

Shen Rong immediately saw her mother pulling her two nieces to the side of the road, but there were too many people rushing in. It was obvious that Mrs. Lu could not take care of her two nieces. Shen Wu was at the intersection, separated from Mrs. Lu by many people, so even if he wanted to run over to save people, he was powerless.

Shen Rong subconsciously called out to Changsheng, "Changsheng, hurry up, go save my mother and the others!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Changsheng rushed into the crowd.

Changsheng was very strong. He pushed through the crowd in no time, squeezed in, pushed away the people rushing towards Lu, and rescued his mother-in-law and two nieces, thus preventing the three of them from being trampled.

"Mom, are you okay? Why are you here? Where's my dad?" Shen Rong checked on Lu and her two nieces and asked with concern.

The two little guys pulled at their aunt's clothes with fear on their faces.

Mrs. Lu patted her chest. Seeing that many people in the clan had gone in, she grabbed Shen Rong and said, "Why are you standing there like an idiot? Hurry up! The clan leader asked us to come in to look for the golden beans. Let's hurry! Your father is guarding the intersection. Don't worry about him."

The situation on the dirt road was still very chaotic, and no one noticed that Changsheng and Shen Rong came out of the mountain.

As everyone ran inside, they talked about how many golden beans there were in the mountains.

"Mom, I know where it is. Come with me." Shen Rong said in a low voice.

Shen Rong and Changsheng took their mother and two nieces into the mountains.

On this side of the intersection, the Shen family members were numerous and powerful. Except for the initial moment when they were unable to react because it was too sudden, once everyone reacted, they quickly controlled the villagers of other surnames who were rushing in. Even the villagers who had already run into the intersection were pulled out one by one.

The tribesmen guarding the intersection stared at the outsiders who wanted to enter with a fierce look.

The incident at the ancient tomb happened too suddenly, and not all members of the tribe heard the news and rushed over.

Those tribesmen who heard the news about going into the mountains to pick up gold and rushed over, when they entered the intersection, all the people guarding inside and outside the intersection had envious looks on their faces.

That's like picking up gold, something I wouldn't even dare to dream of, but now it's happening in reality, who wouldn't be envious!

So many tribesmen squeezed into the ravine that they quickly turned over all the stones in the ravine and found quite a few things.

As if everyone had agreed on it, as soon as they picked up the golden beans, they didn't care whether they were clean or not and just bit them with their teeth.

The golden beans were not big to begin with, and they were flattened in one bite.

"Oh! It's really gold!" Lu also imitated the others and bit it carefully. The golden bean was not flattened, but a tooth mark was left on the door.

"Grandma, is this it?" Yue He took out two golden beans from the crevice of the stone and handed them to Lu.

Mrs. Lu glanced around nervously. Seeing that no one noticed this, she whispered to her granddaughter, "Yue'er, keep your voice down. Just give grandma whatever you pick up. Don't worry, I'll save what you picked up and use it as your dowry in the future!"

Yue He blushed, not sure if it was because she was embarrassed that grandma mentioned the dowry, or because she was excited about picking up gold, "I know, grandma."

"There are not only gold beans here, but also silver and jade ornaments." Shen Rong whispered, then took out a piece of silver and jade ornaments from her arms and showed them to her two nieces.

"They come in these colors, jade white, green, and so on. Don't just stare at the golden beans, they're small and hard to find."

Shen Rong asked the two children who had never seen gold, silver and jade jewelry to look at the things clearly.

"Aunt, we know about it too." The twin sisters looked at the thing and immediately started looking for it by turning over stones nearby.

"Remember not to run too far!" Shen Rong was worried and gave another instruction.

After instructing her two nieces, Shen Rong turned around and saw Changsheng staring at the tribesmen who were looking for gold. Shen Rong said to Changsheng, "Changsheng, take a look at these things in my hand. If you see these things in the ditch later, can you help pick them up?"

"Yeah." Changsheng had been extremely curious when he saw those people looking for something in the ravine. Now that Shen Rong asked him to find something, he couldn't wait to join the crowd.

Seeing Changsheng leave, Shen Rong stuffed the things into her mother's hands, "Mom, hold it for me, I'll turn the stone over."

Although Shen Rong and Liu Jinfeng had searched this ravine thoroughly, there were still some gold beans and some inconspicuous gold, silver and jade ornaments left under the stones and in the cracks between them.

Of course, everyone’s gains were naturally not as much as Shen Rong and Liu Jinfeng’s. At most, they were only a fraction of what they got, but the villagers were already very satisfied.

These are real gold beans. We have never seen gold in our lives!

It can be said that among all the people in Taohua Village, only a handful have ever seen gold.

In the ravine, the Shen clan members were picking golden beans busily, and the people on the mountain were also working as hard as tea.

Patriarch Shen is a man of swift and decisive actions. Now that the tomb has been found, it is time to move it. If it is too late, it will cause a lot of trouble.

Before noon, Patriarch Shen had found the place to relocate the grave.

He ordered his son to bring more than a dozen young men from the clan, and they spent more than an hour digging a new grave.

He personally brought his clansmen to burn incense and worship at the ancient tomb, and started digging at noon.

During the process, the Shen family did not allow other villagers from other families to enter the mountain, so those people did not know the location of the new grave.

When the ancient tomb was dug up, the coffin inside was found to be intact, with burial objects scattered all over the ground.

There were more than a dozen pieces of porcelain, some weapons, and several wooden boxes containing some books and daily necessities.

Everyone thought that there would be a lot of valuables in this tomb, but unexpectedly...

Just when everyone was feeling a little regretful, Patriarch Shen discovered a broken porcelain jar in the corner with a jar full of golden beans at the bottom. Next to the jar was a long-rotted wooden box with only two jade ornaments scattered on the ground. Obviously, there should be more things in the box.

In front of everyone, Chief Shen picked up the gold beans and jade ornaments and said, "We will give these things to those who have contributed to our cause. The other things are not worth much, so we will leave them alone and keep them for our ancestors!"

Those porcelains and the like, they are a bunch of peasants who don't know the value of them. If they give them away, they will be cheated and can't be sold at a good price. It will also be a waste of their ancestors' things. It is better to keep them, which will be a way to repay their ancestors.

Patriarch Shen did not mention the coffin in his words, and judging from his expression, the coffin would not be moved.

Everyone knows that valuable gold, silver and jade ornaments are likely to be in the coffin where the body is placed.

Everyone felt a little disappointed, but they didn't dare to think too much about it. After all, they were their ancestors, and they had some respect in their hearts, and no one dared to open their ancestor's coffin.

"We all listen to the clan leader." Someone responded.

Patriarch Shen was not just talking about distributing the golden beans. He immediately counted the golden beans he had picked up. There were a total of 126 golden beans, which were not much bigger than soybeans.

He counted in his mind and found that there were ten young men digging the graves, ten on Yicheng's side, and more than twenty people guarding the foot of the mountain.
