“Initiate a level-three scan!” Luo Feng ordered as he advanced towards the hill. The scan commenced, revealing a smattering of golden glimmers beneath his feet once it concluded.
Luo Feng’s voice caught in his throat. There were indeed treasures, yet they were sparsely distributed. One particular location stood out, a confluence of various treasures marked by numerous, perhaps a hundred, indicators. It certainly was not the tomb of Cao Cao; its rank was too distinguished to coincide with a mere few hundred markers.
It had to be a decoy tomb.
Regardless of its genuineness, Luo Feng resolved to start digging.
As Luo Feng persisted, something felt off. Signs of prior disturbance marred the area. Trampled weeds and hewn trees suggested recent activity.
Footprints were visible, and amid the weeds, Luo Feng spotted discarded cigarette butts and human waste.
“Damn it! Have tomb raiders already been here?” Luo Feng muttered, feeling deflated.
Still, Luo Feng pressed on. This situation held one advantage: if tomb robbers had indeed visited, their excavation would have eased his task. All he needed to do was to locate their entry point.
“It seems the host keeps discovering locations that have already been plundered, doesn’t it?”
“Certainly seems so. How do these tomb raiders manage to locate every single tomb?”
Following this, Luo Feng began to circumnavigate the supposed ancient tomb, seeking any indications of an entrance. But no traces of digging were apparent.
Standing erect, Luo Feng gripped his Swallowtail Hoe and commenced digging towards the indicated treasures beneath.
As his hoe struck the earth, it connected with something hard. Not dirt, not stone, but a material more akin to steel.
[ Ding! You have found…? ]
[ Era? ]
[ Value? ]
What on earth?
Everything was shrouded in question marks.
Suppressing his confusion, Luo Feng noticed a steel plate concealed within the soil stratum, a door handle-like protrusion jutting out from it. It brought back memories of the bunker he had previously excavated. “Is this not an ancient tomb?”
“But Zhuge Liang’s map points to this location!” Luo Feng’s thoughts were in turmoil at this point.
Nevertheless, he was already here.
He decided to pry it open and inspect its contents.
Tugging at the handle yielded no result. he then spotted a lock next to the handle, taped over, presumably to ward off dirt intrusion.
“Is this a steel plate?”
“Are you blind? It’s a door! Likely a bunker!”
“Remarkable! Although Old Luo didn’t discover a tomb this time, another bunker has surfaced!”
Chatter started up amongst everyone. Luo Feng’s previous bunker excavation had not proved profitable. A single billion-dollar antique would have been more lucrative.
And now, another one had cropped up. Luo Feng was likely hemorrhaging internally.
“Have someone force this door open!”
Luo Feng directed, and about thirty minutes later, with the aid of modern equipment, the door was readily opened.
Upon opening the door, Luo Feng paused for a moment, ensuring no creatures would burst out, before donning a prepared gas mask and oxygen tank.
The interior was enveloped in darkness. Luo Feng activated his flashlight and directed it inside, revealing a retractable ladder.
Luo Feng then unfolded the ladder and used his own rope to descend, not willing to trust the condition of this unfamiliar ladder.
“What on earth is happening?
As he descended, his expression became flabbergasted.
The interior housed a tunnel approximately ten meters long and two meters wide, constructed of stone bricks. Given its design, it could not be a modern construct. Determining the age of these stone bricks was currently impossible. Navigating the tunnel, Luo Feng discovered a camp bed, draped in a white cloth, devoid of dust – a clear indication of recent use.
Upon reaching the tunnel’s end, Luo Feng could conclusively ascertain that this was an ancient tomb.
“Who was this individual? Did they take up residence in an ancient tomb?”
“Are they deranged?”
There should have been a wall separating the tunnel from the main tomb chamber. On this wall, Luo Feng noticed signs of neatly extracted diamond fragments.
The tunnel led Luo Feng to the main tomb chamber.
The chamber was square, spanning roughly three hundred square meters. Both the walls and the floor were constructed of stone bricks.
In the center, there was no coffin, nor were there anv tomb-related artifacts.
The only items present were some cheap tables shrouded in white cloth, and a storage box resting against the wall.
“Is this a bunker?”
“Or an ancient tomb?”
“If it’s a bunker, aren’t the supplies rather limited?”
Luo Feng approached a table and lifted the white cloth, unveiling a stack of parchment envelopes.
Picking up one, he quickly noticed its lack of written words.
Upon opening the envelope, Luo Feng discovered a CD. The only information it carried was a date.
He then pulled out a chair from beneath the table, seated himself, and started examining the remaining envelopes.
After all, there was an entire stack to go through, wasn’t there?
The second envelope housed another CD, merely labeled with a date.
By the time he had sifted through the entire pile, he felt numb. Every envelope contained a CD.
Opening the drawer underneath, Luo Feng found it empty.
Moving on to the next table, he discovered another stack of parchment envelopes, similarly concealed by a white cloth.
Upon opening these, he found USB drives instead of CDs, each affixed with a sticky note bearing a date..
