“Unbelievable, eighteen locations, there’s that many recorded on his map?
“Could it be that even KongmingO was fooled, with so many tombs, none of them escaped his discerning eye?”
“Wouldn’t this make Boss Cao furious enough to rise from the grave and fight him?”
“How is this bad news? If there are eighteen tombs, then wouldn’t the host have a blast digging them all up? Why would the host complain about having too many tombs?”
Luo Feng said, “Among these eighteen tomb locations, one was in Anyang, which is the tomb of Cao Cao that experts have discovered. As for the remaining seventeen, I will not reveal their locations; we will check them out when the time comes.’
“Please, just give us a hint. You can at least mention one, right?”
“What is the point of mentioning one that has already been excavated? The experts are still investigating it… Perhaps it will become a scenic spot in some time.”
Luo Feng ignored them and continued, “As for Boss Cao’s tomb, that is basically the situation. To be honest, I do not have much hope for the remaining seventeen tombs. After all, Cao Cao was not a fool. No one knows how many decoy tombs he created!”
“But do not worry just yet. There is also bad news about Sima Yi’s tomb, which I have not finished telling you! Sima Yi also has more than one tomb!” Luo Feng continued.
“What the hell? What is the situation with Sima Yi?”
“Did he learn from Boss Cao?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLuo Feng nodded, “On the treasure map, two locations are marked. One is the already discovered Gaoyuan Mausoleum. As for the other one, I will visit it when I have time, and you will learn more about it then!”
“I really do not understand. Why would Sima Yi create so many tombs?”
“I am even more curious. How did Zhuge Liang know about Sima Yi’s tomb?”
“The tombs were built during his lifetime, what other reason could there be?
Luo Feng spoke, “Indeed, it was built during his lifetime. And let me tell you something that will make you happy: even Zhuge Liang was somewhat confused about Sima Yi’s tomb. The wording is very vague, which also leaves me quite desperate. As for why Sima Yi created so many tombs, I guess it might have something to do with the circumstances of that time!”
“The circumstances? What do you mean?”
“During the Three Kingdoms period, apart from the chaos, there were no other significant circumstances, right?”
Luo Feng said, “You should know that the founders of tomb raiding had all more or less hailed from the Three Kingdoms era. Cao Cao even created the position of tomb raiding captain to finance his military! If you think Boss Cao was good at tomb raiding, he was actually only the third best.”
“Wait, what?”
“Damn! Boss Cao was only third in tomb raiding?” “Then, who was the first?”
“I know Dong Zhuo was amazing at tomb raiding.”
“Who else could be better at tomb raiding than Boss Cao besides Dong Zhuo?”
Luo Feng chuckled, “Of course, it is Sun Quan, a prominent figure in the tomb raiding world. Although he raided fewer tombs than Cao Cao, they were all grand tombs! That is why some people call him the greatest tomb raider in history!”
“Damn! Is that really true? I never read about this during the Three Kingdoms era.”
“You must have missed it. It really happened, but the tomb raiding captain was later fictionalized as Ghost Blowing the Lamp, so it became widely known! Otherwise, not many people would have known about Boss Cao’s tomb raiding prowess!”
“Host, you’re mistaken. The tombs Sun Quan raided were not fewer than Boss Cao’s! Sun Quan alone has covered more than half of China’s territory back at his prime. The only one who could compare with Sun Quan was Dong Zhuo!” “Is that true? Did Sun Quan really have such skills?”
Luo Feng smiled, “Sun Quan had the skills, and they were quite good. However, he didn’t raid tombs just for money but also to dismantle them. He built temples for Sun Jian using materials from the raided tombs, saying that they could not find good materials on land anymore! After all, for building imperial tombs, materials could not be subpar. Why not make use of what was already available?”
What a pity.
Due to these three founding tomb raiders.
Almost all Han Dynasty tombs worth raiding had been raided.
If they could find just one Han Dynasty tomb now, even one belonging to an ordinary official, it would be extremely valuable.
During the Han Dynasty, filial piety governed the land, and so parents were buried lavishly.
That is why there were many burial items in the tombs back then.
During the stable times of the Han Dynasty, there were not many tomb raiders.
But during the chaos of the Three Kingdoms period, these lavish tombs caught the attention of many warlords.
This was also one of the reasons tomb raiding became rampant during the Three Kingdoms era.
As Luo Feng chatted idly, he began excavating.
Yet, he found that today, the popularity of the livestream was still quite high even while they chatted.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLuo Feng was surprised.
But after some thought, he realized his viewers were trying to glean whatever info, however little, regarding the tombs from him.
This was especially true for the treasure hunters who wanted to get rich. They were keeping an eye on what Luo Feng said, and once they learned any worthwhile news, they would probably set off to hunt for these tombs immediately.
After all, Luo Feng did have two treasure maps in his possession.
A week passed quickly.
Luo Feng traversed the mountains and ridges of the Qinling Mountains.
He had already scanned more than half of Mount Taibai.
“Let’s take a break; it’s already noon!”
That day, as Luo Feng took a rest at noon, he leaned against a large tree.
He even asked Li Shishi to come over and massage his legs.
Oh boy.
Qin Ruobing’s gaze seemed like it could kill.
At that moment, Luo Feng had to resist his urge to tell her, if you want to pamper me, go ahead.
Stop being so arrogant.
Learn from Su Meiji, who is much more reserved. She does not show her affection in her words or actions, only keeping it in her heart.
