Chapter 125 - 125 Yongle Era Dragon Patterned Porcelain! (3)

125 Yongle Era Dragon Patterned Porcelain! (3)

Actually, there was one last treasure spot located underneath the pile of dirt.

Plus, Luo Feng was certain that there was a shortcut to access the tomb’s main burial chamber.

After all, the workers would definitely leave shortcuts for ease of access in-and-out of the tomb.

“Everyone, I’m going to check if there’s anything good under this small pile of dirt!”

Luo Feng pointed at the miniature hill of soil and started digging with his Swallowtail Hoe.

…

…

Meanwhile, on Weibo, despite already being late at night, Luo Feng had once again made it onto the trending page.

“Treasure hunting streamer, Luo Feng has dug up a blue-and-white porcelain dragon pattern plate from the Ming dynasty!”

After all, Luo Feng was very popular, and once there was any major event in his livestream, it would immediately be spread by netizens.

It was human nature to share their excitement to the world, and Luo Feng’s streams were practically an endless supply of excitement, causing many to share his streams and attracting an even wider audience to tune in to his awesomeness.

“Has Old Luo finally found something worthwhile?”

“I was a little bored just now, so I tabbed out to watch President Wang’s dance routine earlier! She was so hot!”

“How much is this thing worth?”

“Some claim that it’s worth 20 million, some claim that it’s worth 200 million! Someone even claimed that it’s worth 2 billion!”

“Hahaha, some went as far to claim it’s worth 2 trillion!”

“F*ck! Stop fooling around guys! How much is it really worth?”

“Well, this is hard to say. Blue and white porcelain is the hottest antique in the antique world, the darling of the industry. You’ll only learn of its true value at an auction!”

“But since it could be a stolen item from the palace or an offering that hasn’t been submitted, I believe that it’ll be worth a good chunk of cash!”

“Earlier, the host put the blue and white porcelain plate back in its original place! What if a big rat comes by and breaks it?”

“Yeah, that’s possible. I’m looking forward to it happening!”

“…”

Meanwhile, in another part of the county, Wang Yousheng was right about to go to bed when he noticed Luo Feng making waves on social media once again.

He saw that everyone was talking about blue and white porcelain he had discovered, and his interest was immediately piqued.

He was a porcelain expert.

And to him, the discovery of such relics was akin to a perverted man spotting a gorgeous woman approaching them from the corner of a street. It was enough for his eyes to pop out.

After hurriedly skimming through the livestream’s replay, Wang Yousheng immediately tossed aside his blanket and got up.

“What are you doing!?” his wife exclaimed.

“I’m going out for a while. Hurry up and prepare my clothes and some food for me!” Wang Yousheng replied, ignoring his wife’s questions as he continued to watch the replay on his phone and put on his clothes.

“??????”

What’s going on, his wife wondered.

It was already late at night, so why is he still heading out?

Is he crazy?

“Don’t give me that look, woman. Luo Feng found a blue-and-white porcelain plate from the Yongle period in an ancient tomb! I must see it with my very own eyes!”

While Luo Feng was aware that the piece had hailed from the Yongle period, as an expert, Wang Yousheng was the only one who knew its true value.

Such an item was worth hundreds of millions of yuan.

After all, why would the tomb worker choose a worthless relic to take with him while he fled?

“Old Man Wang, to what pleasure do I owe this call to? After all, isn’t this already way past your bed time?”

Naturally, the person on the other end of the phone was none other than Master Zhong.

“Hehe, how can I sleep after seeing what Little Luo found! It’s a great treasure that’s worth a massive amount of money! Hurry up and wake your son up, we’re going to need him to drive us there!”

Wang Yousheng hastily answered.

…

…

Back to the main cast.

After digging away at the small mound of dirt, Luo Feng was greeted with yet another corpse.

Valued at 1,000 yuan?

Based on the position of the small mound, Luo Feng surmised that the mound was actually formed by dirt that had dropped down from above.

There was also a bag of tools located beside the body.

Inside were candles, a Luoyang shovel, and some other tools.

The corpse had likely belonged to a tomb raider.

Gears turned in Luo Feng’s mind, and suddenly it all made sense.

They were two tomb raiders. One stood guard outside, while the other was tasked with locating the treasures within.

Unfortunately, due to the landslide, both men were sealed within the collapsed mountain soil.

“Damn, why are there still tomb raiders here?”

“Could it be that one is the support while the other is the treasure hunter?”

“Hahaha, isn’t this a complete Wipeout?”

“I’m just worried that there will be another landslide. Old Luo will also be trapped in there!”

“Forget about Old Luo. He’s a man, so he’s automatically trash, but it would be a pity for the Long-legged Woman!”

“F*ck! Are you all cursing the host one by one?”

“Of course, we’re mad that he found that valuable porcelain dish!”

“I’ll pray for his safety only if he promises to give that plate to me!”

Something’s wrong.

This isn’t right.

Even after Luo Feng had dug out the body, the dot was still present.

This meant that there was something hidden beneath the body.

Tossing aside the body, Luo Feng began to dig again.

Qin Rubing was wondering what he was digging for.

Soon, the floor tiles of the tomb passage were dug up by Luo Feng.

And the tiles?

Some of them were loose?

Could it be due to the tomb workers back in the past? Perhaps it was an escape route?

Luo Feng knocked on the tiles for a few times, hearing a hollow sound in response.

“Old Luo, what are you doing? Are you pretending to knock on wooden fish?”

“Hahaha, are you going to become a monk1?”

“From the sound, it seems to be empty below?”

Luo Feng spoke, “I think I’ve found an entrance to the tomb!”

“Usually, ancient tombs don’t have entrances, but some tomb workers are afraid of being buried alive inside, so they secretly leave entrances! These entrances are usually very well hidden!”

“Moreover, the workers don’t usually know where they will be locked up, whether it’s the burial pit or the main tomb chamber? Therefore, they will leave more entrances than you’d expect!”

“However, in the case where there’s only one entrance, it would definitely connect to the main burial chamber, the various corridors, the side chambers, the burial pits, and various other places!”

“Only through this interconnected web of hidden entrance and passages will the ancient workers be able to escape when push comes to shove!”

After Luo Feng finished speaking, he began to search for the secret entrance to the tomb.

He constantly knocked on the floor towards the area where he thought the entrance was situated at.

“Damn! This host is quite something! It’s a waste that he isn’t a tomb raider!”

“If only he was born 70 years ago, he’d probably be in cahoots with Hu Bayi and his gang, right?”

“That’s right! The host’s professional knowledge rivals, or is even better than Hu Bayi’s!”

“Does the host also have the Eight Mantra Feng Shui array? I feel like his ability to find treasures is even more awesome than Hu Bayi’s!”

“Old Hu was also born in the wrong time period. Back then, all ownerless items were considered to be state property!”

Thump thump thump.

Very quickly.

Luo Feng was done analyzing the general structure of the constructs beneath him.

“I’ve found it!”

Luo Feng smiled at Qin Rubing.

“Is there really a secret passage?”

“Where does it lead to?”

“F*ck yeah! I didn’t stay up all night for nothing!”

“Hurry up and go in, host!”

“Pry open the floor tiles! Enter the main burial chamber and discover great treasures!”

It wasn’t just the audience that was excited, Luo Feng too, had shared their enthusiasm over his latest finding.

Very quickly.

Luo Feng started digging.

He stuck the swallowtail hoe into the gap between the tiles and pulled the floor tiles up one after another,

In no time, a hole about one meter wide was dug out.

The netizens were also very excited at this moment.

Sure enough, there was a hidden passage.

“Everyone, calm down, I’ll be employing the tried and tested method of lighting a candle to see if there’s any strange gas contained below!”

As Luo Feng spoke, he lit up a candle again.

After tying it to a rope and lowering it down, he found that there were no abnormalities to it.

“It doesn’t look very deep! I don’t think there’s a need for a rope!”

Luo Feng peered into the gaping hole he had dug out and mentioned his opinion to Qin Rubing.

It seemed that the hidden passageway was L-shaped.

After jumping down, Luo Feng could confirm that it was a rather shallow hidden passage, being only around 1.5 meters deep.

Crack.

Luo Feng felt like he had stepped on something.

At a glance, it was actually a copper coin?

Upon closer inspection, it was actually a copper coin?

Luo Feng paid no heed to it and did not bother to pick it up. He used a flashlight to shine towards a corner of the passage, and what he saw left him at a loss for words.

…

For as far as he could see, there were tons of corpses lying in wait…
