Under the beam of the flashlight, the object in Fang Yi's hand shimmered with a golden luster, unmistakably --- gold!
Yes, it was gold!
Both of them were shocked, staring at the fingertip-sized piece of gold, unable to speak for a long time.
After a while, Shen Binnan said unsettledly, "How could there be... this thing here?!"
Fang Yi shrugged and rolled his eyes, "You ask me, but whom should I ask?" After a little while, Fang Yi said, "Give me the flashlight." Shen Binnan handed him the flashlight as told.
Fang Yi, holding the flashlight, wandered near the stone gate. Although it seemed he was strolling, Fang Yi was very careful, not overlooking any suspicious details, but he didn't find any clue after a thorough search.
"It's not right; gold wouldn't just appear out of nowhere. There must be something fishy here, I just haven't found it yet..." Fang Yi muttered to himself, somewhat obsessed.
"Maybe someone came here and dropped it by accident," suggested Shen Binnan.
