The wealthy second generation kept watch at the well opening, while Luo Feng tied a rope around himself and descended.

The ancient well was quite deep.

One could not see the bottom at a glance.

Those with claustrophobia would certainly be frightened to death.

After slowly sliding down for about a minute, Luo Feng found himself at a height of nearly ten meters.

Initially, he had estimated it to be only seven or eight meters deeper, but it was deeper than he had first imagined.

Continuing further, the stone walls of the well soon gave way to walls made of piled mud.

On these walls were fist-sized holes, with some snakes slithering in and out of them.

As he shone his flashlight at them, the snakes flicked their crimson tongues back and forth.

Seeing this, Luo Feng could only say, “You all are quite long.”

If he had a girlfriend with legs as long as these snakes, he would definitely be overwhelmed with happiness.

He chuckled at his own joke.

However, it was not long before a snake attacked Luo Feng.

Nevertheless, such an act was tantamount to seeking its own demise.

Luo Feng drew his Jungle Blade, and with a swift motion, he severed the snake into two halves.

After sliding a few more meters, he neared the well’s bottom, where countless wriggling snakes could still be seen.

“Damn, why are there so many snakes? IVs making my scalp tingle!” Luo Feng exclaimed.

As he looked on and shone his flashlight upon them, the snakes scattered in all directions.

Once they left, a pile of bones was revealed – they appeared to be human remains.

“This well opening is truly terrifying!” one viewer commented.

“I genuinely admire the courage of the host to descend into such a treacherous location!” another added.

“With so many snakes, perhaps we should catch them and soak them in liquor?” a third suggested.

“Hahaha, you go ahead and catch them. I bet you a spicy strip that you wouldn’t even dare to go down,” someone challenged.

It was true.

In such a place,

Aside from Luo Feng, it was estimated that 99 percent of the viewers would not dare to go down.

Let alone reaching the bottom of the well, just descending itself would already require much courage from these witless viewers.

Moreover, once they saw the snakes dwelling in the well, most would likely abandon the idea altogether.

The valuables previously mentioned seemed to be the snakes themselves, as they were of a rare variety.

Luo Feng did not continue further, but instead tugged the rope, signaling for the others to hoist him back up.

Within a few minutes, he had returned to the opening.

“Did you find anything?” Su Meiji immediately asked.

Luo Feng pondered for a moment, touching his chin, and thought to himself,

“The fengshui of this place is rather puzzling!”

“But there should be no problem with the entrance, right?”

“What lies beneath? An ancient tomb? Or the entrance to an ancient village?”

“But it shouldn’t be an ancient village; if it were, why bother with a life entrance?”

“Yet not all ancient tombs necessarily have a life entrance!”

“Having buried themselves inside, there’s no need for a life entrance at all.” After contemplating for a while, Luo Feng spoke, “Based on the Sixteen-Character True Text’s Qimen Dunjia analysis, the entrance is full of snakes. Many half-hearted fengshui masters would consider this a dead entrance. But I wish to look for an actual dead entrance!”

“So where is the dead entrance at then?” Li Shishi immediately asked.

“Now that we’ve found the life one, the dead entrance shouldn’t be hard to locate!”

Leaving the matter at that, Luo Feng glanced at a spot about 100 meters away.

He grabbed a hoe and headed in that direction.

This time, Luo Feng was more cautious, ensuring that he could retreat at a moment’s notice in case of a collapse.

Those digging the earth were tied to safety ropes.

In roughly half an hour, with everyone’s efforts, a deep pit about three to five meters emerged.

Another hollow ancient well was found.

“Wow! We’ve really discovered the dead entrance, huh?” “What’s the purpose of finding the dead entrance?”

“Can we even enter through the dead entrance?”

“Two ancient wells, this place feels more like an ancient village than an ancient tomb!”

Luo Feng did not say much as he tied himself to a 20-meter rope.

He wanted to descend once more.

This time, Luo Feng was smarter, and he had brought along plenty of insect repellent as a precaution.

After descending more than ten meters, the stone walls of the well changed back to mud walls.

Below were countless snake holes, far too many to count.

Luo Feng scattered the repellent along the way, causing the large snakes to flee.

Spreading the insect repellent at the bottom of the well, the snakes twisted wildly before escaping.

“What did the host use? Is it sulfur?” someone asked.

“It doesn’t look like sulfur. Where did he buy this stuff? It seems incredibly effective!” another commented.

“Introduce us the seller! Send a link to the livestream, this thing is so useful for treasure hunting and outdoor activities!”

Unfortunately for these viewers, the repellent Luo Feng used was a system prop, and thus, it was not available for purchase at any store.

Luo Feng did not say anything but examined the cave at the well’s bottom.

He stepped on the ground, which was solid; there were no more hidden spaces beneath.

After a brief observation, Luo Feng pulled the rope to ascend back up.

Indeed, this was a dead gate.

At the entrance, many people had died due to the numerous venomous snakes.

The dead end was also filled with snakes.

In other words, the life entrance was a dead end, and the dead entrance remained a dead end.

So what was the difference between life and death?

A typical entrance would be safe, with no environment for venomous snakes to survive. The builder would eliminate any potential hazards, only then could it be called an entrance.

Had he misinterpreted the entrance and dead end? Was this place simply an ancient village?

Was it not an ancient tomb?

If so, the fengshui of this ancient village was exceptional.

Unable to understand the situation, Luo Feng returned to the original entrance he had found earlier.

He planned to descend once more, as he had been too eager to find the dead entrance earlier and had not thoroughly examined the entrance..
