Luo Feng found himself in a state of complete bewilderment. What could all this possibly mean? The terracotta figure before him – could it genuinely represent Guan Yu, the celebrated Lord Guan? The idea seemed beyond belief. Had they truly unearthed a terracotta figure of Lord Guan here to safeguard Cao Cao’s tomb? The choices Cao Cao had made for his tomb’s guardians were unquestionably extravagant.

“Am I hallucinating? Does this terracotta figure truly resemble Lord Guan?” Luo Feng queried.

“It is not just a likeness; it is an impeccable match!” a viewer responded. “Lord Guan’s image is profoundly embedded in our hearts!”

“But how could Cao Cao have possibly arranged for Lord Guan, who never belonged to his camp, to be here?”

“Did Cao Cao have a penchant for collecting terracotta figures?”

“Or perhaps, was this done solely for the purpose of guarding his tomb?”

“After all, Lord Guan served under Cao Cao for some time, so his guarding Cao Cao’s tomb is not entirely absurd.”

While these explanations seemed a bit stretched, they held some ground. In the historical records, Guan Yu had indeed been in service under Cao Cao for a time. This fact offered some clarity to Luo Feng’s confusion.

Upon a more careful examination of the terracotta figure of Lord Guan, Luo Feng noted that it was quite handsome. Dressed in armor and brandishing a large sword, it was a sight to behold. And the inherent value of such terracotta figures could not be understated, especially if they were authentically modeled after the likeness of these great men.

After all, in an era devoid of photography, portraits might not have been accurate representations. Not to mention the potential for artists to embellish their subjects or even create forgeries. With all these factors in mind, the worth of these terracotta figures was likely to be immense. These were the true faces of ancient generals from over 1800 years ago.

As Luo Feng walked among these terracotta figures, he felt as if he had been transported back in time. It was a fascinating sensation, one that made him yearn to live in that bygone era and meet these courageous warriors and brilliant strategists.

Suddenly, Luo Feng noticed another terracotta figure. With a face as handsome as jade, a headdress, and a feather fan in his hand, the figure radiated an ethereal presence.

“Good heavens! Could that be Zhuge Liang?” he gasped upon reading the name plaque.

“It’s Kongming! Kongming!” A viewer exclaimed.

“Cao Cao certainly had elaborate tastes! Regardless of whether they were his allies or not, he had all these figures serve under him? Even going as far as to have Zhuge Liang guard his tomb?”

“No wonder Zhuge Liang harbored such animosity towards you. You truly crossed a line, Cao Cao! Zhuge Liang never served under you, yet you arranged for him to guard your tomb! While one could make an argument for Lord Guan, the same cannot be said for Zhuge Liang.”

After all, Zhuge Liang had lived during a time after Cao Cao.

So, did that mean that while he was still alive, Zhuge Liang was brought in to guard your tomb?

If Zhuge Liang had known, he would have gone to any lengths to find your grave, even if it entailed desecrating your corpse.

“Good heavens! It is indeed Kongming!”

“Anchor, come closer. I wish to see how Zhuge Liang’s terracotta figure appears!”

“Shine some light! Get closer, hold this angle, do not move!”

“I have already taken a screenshot, my friends. The internet is about to be set ablaze! ”

As Luo Feng stood aside, accommodating everyone, he took pictures of various angles of Lord Guan and Zhuge Liang’s terracotta figures. These images would be released sooner or later, he was merely doing it sooner.

Before long, a hitherto unknown group started to boast about this discovery.

“Did you see that? This is Lord Guan, the genuine historical Lord Guan.”

“Did you notice Zhuge Liang? That is Zhuge Liang! Oh my goodness!”

“Who among you has seen Zhuge Liang? Haha, I have!”

“Are we bragging now? You have seen Lord Guan and Zhuge Liang? Did you time travel?”

“What is there to brag about?”

“Bragging? Are you a fool? Old Luo has already excavated the terracotta figures of Lord Guan and Zhuge Liang, and you are still here doubting, truly a frog in a well!”

“Hehe, Lord Guan and Zhuge Liang in Cao Cao’s tomb, you must be dreaming.

You are a fool!”

“One cannot reason with a fool like you. Just wait for the news to become trending! Get lost!”

Meanwhile, a group of historians had gathered around a computer screen, eager to dive into the scene as soon as the first terracotta figure was unearthed.

They wished they could be at the site firsthand.

They wished they could immediately take those terracotta figures home to study them in detail.

For historians, the opportunity to see the authentic faces of ancient generals was indeed a cause for celebration.

“So many? All terracotta figures? Are these the actual faces of ancient generals?”

“Let’s rush to the Taihang Mountains to take some photographs!”

“These cultural relics are indeed precious!”

Upon hearing the news, Gu Santong was undoubtedly startled.

He was well aware that the value of these terracotta figures had skyrocketed to an incredible level. The preserved faces of ancient generals from over a thousand years ago were indeed priceless.

“Understood. I will bring additional personnel,” he responded.

After all, the treasures beneath the tomb included the Nine Bestowments, the Four Treasures of the Study, and Du Kang wine..
