While carrying his Swallowtail Hoe and wearing a headlamp, Luo Feng had to figure out how to enter the ancient tomb below.
“Luo Feng, how should we get in?” Su Meiji asked curiously.
“To enter, we must first understand how Ming Dynasty tombs were built!” Luo Feng explained.
“Why is that important?” Qin Rubing asked, puzzled.
“Well, think about it — if it were me, how would I build it?”
“If I were to build a tomb right underneath another Tang Dynasty tomb, the easiest way to proceed is to go through the Tang Dynasty tomb’s main burial chamber! ”
“The partial collapse of the main burial chamber was actually caused by the construction of the Ming Dynasty tomb!”
“After breaking through, the tomb owner would transport materials down.”
“Moreover, they could remove the floor tiles, burial objects, and so on from the tomb above, and send them down for their own use!”
“It is for this reason that the impression we got from Yuan Zai’s tomb feels as if it has already been looted!”
“And they even deliberately scattered some Tang Dynasty jade to confuse people and make them think the tomb had been robbed!”
“Of course, this is but a simple trick, meant to pull wool over tomb raiders’ eyes, but it’s quite effective!”
Luo Feng would have been deceived by these methods if not for the golden light still visible below.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe master of this Ming Dynasty tomb was indeed a cunning fox.
At first, he thought the treasures indicated by the markers were buried in the collapsed soil, but it turned out to be hidden deeper.
“This should be the location of the tomb passage for the Ming Dynasty tomb below!”
After searching for a while, Luo Feng pointed to the ground beneath his feet.
“Most Ming Dynasty tombs are flat, so the difference in elevation won’t be too significant!”
“To get in, the first method is to dig through directly, but I think that’s too violent and time-consuming. I don’t like it!”
“Secondly, we can look for the escape tunnels left by the tomb builders!”
“Third. we can excavate the tomb Dassace and walk straight in!”
“Digging out the tomb passage isn’t difficult. The challenge is the brick wall between the passage and the main burial chamber. Removing it brick by brick is too laborious!”
“The most time-saving method is to find the escape tunnel left by the tomb builders!”
“This escape tunnel usually runs through the tomb passage and the main burial chamber and is hidden in inconspicuous places. It’s either directly beneath the tomb passage or on the side, which is most appropriate!”
Luo Feng explained as he analyzed these scattered thoughts, which left everyone else somewhat confused.
“It’s right here!”
Familiar with ancient tombs and being able to see the scattered golden light in a long, narrow space, Luo Feng was certain it was the secret escape tunnel dug by the tomb builders.
Because the real tomb passage would undoubtedly have more treasures.
“This is it. Let’s start digging!”
Without wasting time, Luo Feng lifted his hoe and began working.
After about two hours, they finally dug out the secret tunnel.
It was Zhang Shunyong who had located it.
‘We’ve found it, Luo Feng! Hurry up!”
“Yes, we’ve dug through!” Luo Feng smiled. “It seems that the overseers discovered the tunnel secretly dug by the tomb builders and sealed it off here!”
He sighed and continued, “In ancient times, tomb builders always wanted to escape, but the overseers weren’t just sitting idly by. Most of the secretly dug tunnels were eventually discovered.”
“Has Master Gu Santong arrived?”
Upon hearing the sound of a helicopter outside, Luo Feng decided to put off their plans to enter the tomb temporarily to wait for Gu Santong’s arrival.
Soon, Gu Santong had arrived within the Tang Dynasty tomb.
“Little Luo, what have you found? Any new discoveries?” he asked.
“Of course, we’ve found the secret tunnel dug by the tomb builders. Now we can take a shortcut into the Ming Dynasty tomb below!” Luo Feng flicked his nose and said, “You can bring your team to conduct an archaeological study of the Tang Dynasty tomb. We’ll head down first.”
“Alright, be careful!” Gu Santong advised.
“Let’s go, follow me!”
Luo Feng took the lead, with Su Meiji hesitating for a moment before following him.
Qin Rubing and Li Shishi followed as well.
First wife, second wife, third wife – it seemed so orderly that Luo Feng could not help but feel delighted.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHis only concern now was whether they would still get along so harmoniously while doing night activities together.
Hahaha!
The escape tunnel was quite low.
After crawling for several meters, Luo Feng discovered a corpse.
A few meters further, he found seven or eight more corpses.
There were no valuable items found on them.
They were too poor.
After encountering many corpses, they finally reached the end of the tunnel.
“It’s a brick wall, Luo Feng. Can we pry it open?” Su Meiji asked.
“It shouldn’t be too difficult!”
Luo Feng tapped the dense brick wall with his Swallowtail hoe, producing a hollow thud.
He then pulled out his Jungle Blade that was capable of overcoming mountains and crossing rivers.
The group marveled at Luo Feng’s skills.
They had encountered similar situations before and were used to his expertise.
In about 20 minutes, Luo Feng had cleared enough space in the brick wall for a person to pass through.
“Wow! Our host is truly amazing! Are they going to enter the tomb now?”
“This is more than just amazing! I think our host is like a reincarnation of the
God of Literature and Zhang Qiling! Is there anything he doesn’t know?”
“I really don’t know how much knowledge is stored in our host’s head.. In the field of treasure hunting, there’s nothing he doesn’t recognize and nothing he doesn’t know!”
