Chapter 253: A Great Feng Shui Layout! An Ancient Qixing Tomb? (3)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Barely visible, there lay a skeleton inside, bent at the knees and lying on its side. Beside the skeleton were two coarse clay pots filled with soil, which could hardly be considered as fine artifacts.
βWhat kind of grave is this? An emperorβs tomb?β
βAre you trying to be funny?β
βWhy is the skeleton in this position?β
βAre these broken pots supposed to be burial offerings?
βHey, Old Luo, you didnβt accidentally dig up a local villagerβs grave, did you?β
Luo Feng laughed helplessly, βA villager from the foot of the mountain could have a tomb that lasts for thousands of years? This is a genuine ancient tomb from the pre-Qin period!β
βPre-Qin period? Spring and Autumn, Warring States, or the Zhou dynasty?β
βCan any grave be considered an ancient tomb?β
Everyone was at a loss for words. A dilapidated coffin and broken pots, could this really be an ancient tomb? Where was the sign of it being a tomb?
βGuys, not all ancient burials are grand in scale. Are you saying that commoners donβt deserve to be buried?β Luo Feng rolled his eyes.
βThese ceramics can prove that this is from the pre-Qin period. See? The inscriptions are in small seal script!β
Luo Feng picked up one of the clay pots and examined it. βThe characters on this pot seem to be from Xianting villageβ¦ Maybe it belonged to a resident from that time? These three characters are the name of a place!β
After handing the ceramic to Brother An, Luo Feng explained, βSee this skeleton bent at the knees and lying on its side? This should be a flexed burial from the pre-Qin periodβ¦ Flexed burials are one of Chinaβs ancient funerary forms. Its main feature is that the deceasedβs limbs are bent so that the lower limbs are curled up, and then the body is buried in the tomb pit.β
βCompared to the extended burials, flexed burials refer to the posture of the body after death. It is a peculiar phenomenon in the history of Chinese culture, especially in the history of Chinese burial systems. However, the origin, prevalence, time, and region, as well as its meaning, remain long-standing unresolved questions.β
In essence, the skeleton looks to be in a fetal position.
βWhereβs the grand tomb you promised? Whatβs the point of digging this up?β
βIndeed, what about the incredible feng Shui you mentioned? Didnβt you say that there might be a possibility of an emperorβs tomb emerging? Well, is this what you call an emperorβs tomb!?β
βHahaha! Perhaps a king of a small kingdom? Not an emperor?β
βAre these clay pots valuable?β
Luo Feng shook his head, βNot really. These pots, aside from deducing the era of the tomb owner, have little significance. In the market, theyβre worth tens of thousands at most.β
Luo Feng glanced at the other scattered treasure points. Even if there were ancient tombs, they would only be ordinary peopleβs burial sites. The only thing to look forward to was the treasure point under the magnificent central peak.
βProfessor Gu Santong, I found a pre-Qin burial site here. Are you interested in coming over by plane to take a look?β Luo Feng took out his phone and called Gu Santong.
βOh? How big is it? Pre-Qin?β
βAbout 2 meters long and half a meter wide.β
βUhβ¦ have you dug it up already?β
βYes!β βAlright then, Iβll send someone over.β
βYouβre sending someone? Youβre not coming yourself?β
βIβm busy!β βWhat if I say there are other grand tombs?β
βReally?β
βReally! Donβt you trust me?β
βWell, then, this changes things. Iβm not busy anymoreβ¦β
βShishi, Miss Su, it is getting late. Let us rest for now and continue digging tomorrow! There must be a large tomb here. With this kind of geomancy pattern, unless the people of the ancient times were blind, it is impossible for there not to be a large tomb buried here!β
βEven if no one discovered this good feng Shui pattern for a hundred years, eventually, someone would find it after five hundred years and choose to bury a tomb here!β
After Luo Feng finished speaking, he decisively ended the livestream. Of course, he expected that many people would come to the mountains with shovels tomorrow.
Due to this, Luo Feng had to notify the villagers from his hometown and the Shuitang Village, and have Luo Yun and Huang Tianba bring people to keep watch.
The next day, Luo Feng awoke naturally in his tent. Since he had gone to bed at ten oβclock, eight hours of rest was about enough. Glancing at the campsite, he saw that only a few of the wealthy second-generation youths were up, but Su Meiji was already dressed and ready. It must be said that professional women usually have a nine-to-five routine, they were always punctual.
After waking everyone up, they ate breakfast.
Luo Feng then picked up his Swallowtail Hoe and headed towards the spot they had been digging the previous day.
βOld Luo, why you are so diligent?! Is there really a large tomb underneath here?β
βStarting the livestream at six or seven in the morning? Iβm not even fully awake yet!β
βThe early bird catches the worm! Of course, we have to get up early, right, Shishi?β Luo Feng said with a mischievous smile, glancing at Li Shishi.
βEspecially for you girls, waking up early is the only way to catch the worm!β
βHuh?β Li Shishi did not understand at first, but when she realized what he meant, she immediately began playfully hitting the scoundrel. However, she was secretly delighted. Typically, a girlβs reaction to a boyβs teasing depends on who the person was.
If they do not like the boy, they will definitely call him disgusting. If they like the boy, they will be overjoyed. Moreover, girls tend to be six times more interested in such topics than men. They actually enjoy these conversations, but it depends on the person they were conversing with.
For those they are comfortable with, they will not get angry or even be quite happy.
For the rest of the day, Luo Feng planned to excavate the areas marked with seven or eight treasure points. Based on the analysis of yesterdayβs finds, these were likely small tombs.
With yesterdayβs experience, the newly joined local second-generation rich kids were much more efficient.
With a thud, Li Shishi made a discovery.
Luo Feng looked forward and saw: [ Ding! Ancient tomb! Worth 600,000! ]
[ Dynasty: Pre-Qin Period! ]
βI found it! I found it!β Li Shishi excitedly shouted. This was her first time discovering something significant.
Her excitement was palpable.
βDid our cute little Shishi find something? Is it a big rock?β βIs it another ancient tomb? Or perhaps tomb bricks?β
βHow can a pre-Qin tomb contain bricks?β
βIt is possible, but the scale would not be large. The population was too small during that time! Large tombs are hard to come by.β
Seeing Li Shishi so happy, Luo Feng smiled and said, βIndeed, it is an ancient tomb, but we do not need to waste our time on it. It might be similar to yesterdayβs find. Letβs leave it to the archaeological team to handle it!β
βAh? I seeβ¦β Li Shishi looked a bit disappointed, thinking she had accomplished something great.
However, it did not matter.
Whether she accomplished something or not was irrelevant. The most important thing was to win over her heartthrob.
βWow! Youβre just giving it up? So generous! Letting the archaeological team take over?β
βDonβt do that, host! What if something valuable comes up? Wonβt you suffer a great loss?β
βWith a tomb like this, not belonging to royalty or nobility, what kind of valuable burial items could there possibly be in store?β
βMaybe just a few ceramic jars! The coffin itself is probably the most valuable part!β
An hour later, another ancient tomb with seven or eight treasure dots was found.
And then, there was a fourth oneβ¦
Around six in the afternoon, with a thud⦠[ You have discovered an ancient tomb. ]
All seven ancient tombs had been excavated.
Luo Feng had not missed a single one.
Although their values were not high, Luo Fengβs feng Shui analysis had still attracted many viewers.
After all, people enjoyed watching the excavation of Pre-Qin tombs. βThis host is amazing! He really found ancient tombs using feng shui? All seven of them?β
βCan any professionals tell me the hostβs level of feng Shui skill? What rank is
βIs he as awesome as Hu Bayi?β
βHahaha, I will never doubt the hostβs ability to find my familyβs ancestral graves again!β
βI want to learn feng Shui to dig up my ex-girlfriendβs family graves!β
Seeing that it was still early, Luo Feng decided to continue digging, and he begun heading towards the next treasure pointβ¦.
