He Went Through The Field With His Tool
Mike made up his mind to sweep out the whole field after that first beep. Most of the time, the beeping grows fainter and fainter as you walk away from the initial spot. This was not the case this time around. He found it strange that the metal detector only beeped more loudly as he walked away from that area. It occurred to him that it might be nothing more than a machine malfunction. However, it was much more exciting to think that something huge might actually be lying below this field.
It Was Time To Dig
When the metal detector went off, there was nothing else to do but to trust his gut. His instincts had been telling him to dig for treasure! It was a good thing that he had a shovel with him. Mike got to work right away. Luckily, the soil was damp from the rain and easier to dig out. He began with a hole about two feet deep and a foot wide. Even though he was intrigued, he had no idea what he might find there.
