201 The Ming Dynasty Golden Lock! A Gold Dragon! Is the Treasure Hidden in a Cave? (1)

The idea of there being more treasures hidden in Dragon Mountain reignited in Luo Feng’s heart in an instant.

He began to consider all the relevant information, such as the “South Hundred Steps” and “Three Kilns of Gold,” from the mantra, which had already been found. They were the first of the rebel king’s treasures to be discovered.

Beyond that, the treasures beneath the waterfall at the Three Bridges had also been unearthed.

Which meant that the remaining clue, the “stone cliff rapids” had likely referred to a completely different location, as upon thinking back, there were no chaotic rocks to be seen at the waterfall site.

“What kind of place do the stone cliff rapids refer to, and where can they be found?”

Despite being stumped, Luo Feng continued with his excavation.

He brought out the ancient jade piece, which turned out to be a pair of exquisitely carved koi fish jade pendants. The material appeared to be high-quality Hetian jade, similar to the kind used to make imperial jade seals. The value of this jade was estimated to be around 10 million yuan, which indicated that even if it was not something that had originated from the royal court, it was not something ordinary people would have lost.

It was due to this thought that Luo Feng felt that there were more of the rebel king’s treasures to be found.

“Everyone, look! This is a Ming Dynasty double-headed koi fish jade pendant!” Luo Feng proudly displayed the relic in his hand after unearthing it.

“Huh? Another antique?”

“Was it left behind by the rebel king?”

“How could there be anything left? There have already been two treasures sites found! There can’t possibly be any more treasures left in this mountain!”

“Maybe there’s a third treasure site?”

As Luo Feng ventured further into the mountains and continued to uncover antiques, speculation grew among the viewers that perhaps there was another treasure hidden deep within the mountains. After all, ancient people had been to this place. As long as they continued to find various relics while moving deeper into the mountains, it would further prove that the rebel king and his men had indeed gone further in.

“Hahaha! It seems like I’ve come to the right place!”

“The livestreamer has discovered another antique deep in the mountains! It must mean there’s more treasure further in!”

“I must find it this time; I can’t let Old Luo get rich again!”

Many treasure hunters in the mountains were undoubtedly watching the livestream while digging. Seeing this, they quickly followed Luo Feng’s direction.

“Let’s go, go, go! Let’s form teams and head to Dalong Mountain!”

“Count me in! I want to go too!”

“I need to buy a shovel right away!”

“Me too!”

“My online order is arriving soon, but I guess I’ll have to buy one from a physical store for now…”

“Damn it! There are no more shovels in the supermarket! They’re all gone!”

“What? All the shovels are sold out?”

“What about other tools? Hoes?”

“Gone too!”

“And the hardware stores?”

“Nothing left!”

In no time, not only were all the shovels in Dalong County sold out, but even hoes in hardware stores were gone. Any tool that could be used for digging had been bought up.

It was sheer madness…

The entire county’s population seemed determined to find treasures and get rich.

…

…

Meanwhile, Luo Feng and his group continued to move deeper into the mountains, digging as they went.

They searched for over a dozen marked spots, and apart from some medicinal herbs, they found scattered copper coins, porcelain bowls, and ancient hemp ropes. This undoubtedly indicated that a large number of people had ventured deep into the mountains.

By evening, Luo Feng let everyone rest for a while and prepared some wild vegetables by the creek. He cooked another pot of mixed stew, which never seemed to bore the rich second-generation heirs. They always looked forward to mealtime.

Perhaps it was due to Luo Feng’s excellent cooking skills or the fact that they were famished after a long day, but everyone had a hearty appetite.

The next morning, Luo Feng was awakened by a series of noisy chatter. He knew that the rich kids would not be talking much while they slept. Lifting the tent flap, he was taken aback by the sight before him. As far as he could see, there were people everywhere. This was absolutely ludicrous, considering they were dozens of kilometers deep into the mountains.

There were at least a few hundred people scattered across the mountainside, equipped with metal detectors and shovels, searching and digging for treasure. There were small groups of 3 to 5 people, larger groups of more than 10, and even solo treasure hunters.

“Host, you’ve really stirred up a hornet’s nest!”

“Everyone online is talking about how there are still many treasures hidden in Dalong Mountain!”

“I just watched a different livestream with over a thousand people entering the mountain, maybe even more! They’re all from Dalong County!”

“Yesterday, Dalong County’s hardware stores and supermarkets were sold out of digging tools! Everything’s gone!”

“I wonder, if no one finds any treasure, will the streamer be beaten up?”

“Haha, who can they blame? No one invited them here to begin with!”

Seeing so many people searching the area, Luo Feng decided to lead the rich heirs away from the crowded area.

However, not long after, they were swarmed once more. It was starting to get annoying.

Were these people content with relying on others to get rich, without using their own brains? They had the clues, yet they refused to search the mountains for similar locations.

Luo Feng instructed the rich kids to pick up their pace. By around 10 a.m., they had left the others behind, covering several kilometers of travel distance.

“Scan!”

Upon activating the scanner, numerous treasure markers appeared nearby, around ten or so. Luo Feng began digging at each location. When he reached the fifth site and had been digging for half an hour, he realized that the item buried below was far from ordinary.

“Could it be another ancient jade artifact?”
