Upon approaching the site, Master Li had already prepared the tools for descending into the tomb, including oxygen tanks and gas masks. Both he and Luo Feng were equipped and ready to explore.
“Shall we go down and take a look?” asked Li Gang, his voice tinged with anticipation.
“No problem!” Luo Feng nodded, sensing the other party’s anxiety. After all, they had been wandering around this place for a week, struggling to find a way into the main tomb. Now that Luo Feng was present, they were eager to proceed.
The entrance to the tomb passage was rather narrow, requiring the two men to bend their bodies to pass through. Luo Feng led the way, flashlight in hand, confidently illuminating the path ahead. He had explored ancient tombs before, so the initial anxiety had given way to habit.
The tomb passage measured just over two meters in width and height, but its narrow confines did not stifle the voices of excitement that were captured by the camera in the tomb passage.
“Why is the host walking so slowly?” one viewer queried.

“Surely it’s the tomb of that treacherous Sima that scared him, right?”
“Haha, after watching these past days, I still think Cao Cao’s tomb was the most interesting. The others are just trash!”
The corridor offered no obstruction, but the tombstone remained hidden from sight. When the flashlight beam finally struck the walls, the voices fell into stunned silence.
Luo Feng knew that this ancient tomb was valuable, but he had not anticipated discovering a tomb worth 500 million. As far as the eye could see, there was nothing but gold and silver, all piled up in the main tomb chamber. The dazzling display took everyone’s breath away. “Holy crap, this is insane, isn’t it?”
“My God, it’s all gold! How can this be?”
“It’s Old Luo who discovered it, and suddenly I feel a lot more balanced!”
Indeed, the thirty-meter main tomb chamber was filled with gold and silver, offering a visual feast that captivated the eye. The sheer scale of the accumulated wealth was astounding, nearly reaching the ceiling.
“Gulp!” Master Li swallowed hard, his voice betraying his disbelief. Though he had excavated many ancient tombs, he had never seen anything like this.
“Why are there so many tomb passages?” he asked, curiosity piqued.
“This place is a treasure trove. Eight tomb passages, filled with gold, silver, and porcelain, symbolize wealth coming from all directions. This tomb has been turned into a place for attracting fortune, ” Luo Feng explained as they explored.
Luo Feng’s eyes widened as he approached the mountain of gold, feeling its weight in his hands.
“Mr. Luo, Mr. Luo!” Master Li cried out in alarm, “Beneath this mountain of gold, there’s a coffin!”
Luo Feng looked over, his eyes catching the dark corner of a coffin emerging from the gleaming mound.
“Come down, all of you, come down!” Master Li commanded into the walkie-talkie. Soon, a group of archaeologists, all equipped with oxygen tanks and gas masks, descended into the chamber. The sight of the mountain of gold left them astonished.
“There’s a coffin underneath. We must first clear away the gold and silver on top!” Master Li directed, and the team set to work. In less than an hour, they had carefully revealed the two-meter-long coffin.
Master Li and a few specialized students approached to open it, with Luo Feng standing quietly to the side. He knew that aside from the treasures, the coffin itself might not hold much else.
“The coffin is empty?” Master Li queried, his voice tinged with disappointment.

“Oh? Who is it?” Luo Feng asked, intrigued.
Master Li replied with a question, prompting Luo Feng to think: “What place is this?”
“This is certainly Fuquan Mountain!”
“Yes, and during the Hongwu period, with such lavish burial items… Think about it carefully!”
“Ah!” Luo Feng’s mind clicked, and he exclaimed, “Could it be Shen Wansan?”
Master Li nodded, his smile broadening, “It should be correct. Most likely, it is Shen Wansan!”
The historical connections were clear: the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the
Hongwu period, Fuquan Mountain, and the lavish burial artifacts. Shen Wansan, the immensely wealthy individual from the late Yuan to early Ming era, became the obvious conclusion.
Though demoted, Shen Wansan’s legendary wealth and influence were extraordinary, and local legends even linked him to Zhang Sanfeng. But these were merely tales, their truth buried in history. “Holy cow, Shen Wansan’s tomb? We’re going to make a fortune!”
“This guy was a super-rich individual!”
“How wealthy was he back then? It’s said that he was even more powerful than
He Shen!”
