It was not at all suitable for a tomb to be buried in.
If it was not an ancient tomb, could it have been a jade mine?
They walked and dug around the vast area.
With a squelching sound, they dug for a while toward a treasure marker.
The soil they dug up seemed a bit different…
“Damn! Luo Feng is examining the soil again; I have a bad feeling about this!” someone exclaimed.
“Could it be another multi-colored soil? Has he found another large tomb?”
“How can there be so many tombs in the Qinling Mountains? They are even more densely packed than the thatched huts in my village!”
“You are not wrong; this is the Qinling Mountains, and the saying of it having ‘100,000 ancient tombs’ is not an exaggeration!”
Luo Feng dropped the soil in his hand and said, “There must be something good below!”
“Is there really an ancient tomb?” Su Meiji asked.
“Do not jump to conclusions, but based on the soil, this treasure is not buried too deep,” Luo Feng smiled and said, “Meiji, you are quite clever. Can you guess the historical relics near the Jinghe River Basin in the Qinling Mountains? It is easy to guess!”
“?????” Li Shishi was utterly puzzled and clueless as to what Luo Feng was alluding to.
“I think I need to search my memory for historical knowledge!” “Didn’t we return all those things to our teachers?” Just when everyone was unable to guess, Luo Feng dug in.
Did he find something?
It was a bone fragment, more than ten centimeters long.
“A corpse?”
“Is there really an ancient tomb?” “How come this bone does not look like the ones we found before?” “Is it a jade walking stick?”
“It definitely is not an ancient tomb; it is not deep enough. Unless tectonic movements have shifted the tomb upwards.”
Upon seeing the jade-like bone, Luo Feng’s smile grew wider.
Because he knew.
This object was a fossil, as the legends told.
They had found a fossil of an ancient creature, and there were hundreds of markers nearby.
Without a doubt, this area was an activity range from ancient times.
[ Ding! You have found a fossil! ] [ Epoch: Middle Pleistocene! ] [ Value: 1.1 million! ]
Could it be such a valuable fossil?
But what kind of animal did this bone come from?
Human? Or perhaps another creature?
For the time being, Luo Feng could not tell.
“Never mind that for now, let us keep digging; there seem to be many fossils in this area!”
Luo Feng did not dig up the fossil.
Instead, he left it in place.
He had someone guard it.
Then he led the majority of the group toward the next treasure marker.
“Another fossil?”
Once again, Luo Feng unearthed something similar to a jade bone.
Everyone Degan to wonaer again.
They asked what it was.
“This is a fossil!” Luo Feng said.
“A fossil? You cannot be serious; would a fossil be buried so shallowly?” Li Shishi questioned in confusion.
“The depth of a fossil is irrelevant because it was not intentionally buried by humans. Instead, it was covered by sand blowing in over the years. In contrast, an ancient tomb would have been dug and placed deep underground. A fossil’s burial depth can range from o meters to 5,000 meters!” Luo Feng explained.
“Damn, is it really a fossil?”
“If Luo Feng says it is a fossil, then I believe him. After all, he has never been wrong before! ”
“I work at a museum, and this is indeed a fossil!”
“Damn! Did Luo Feng find dinosaur fossils?”
“Were there dinosaurs in the Qinling Mountains back then? Weren’t they only in Africa?”
“Don’t be ridiculous; dinosaurs were found all over the world, including Asia!”
“Dinosaur fossils have been unearthed in various parts of our country, and the
Qinling area is particularly rich with them!”
“Spread the word, Luo Feng found dinosaur fossils!” “Spread the word, Luo Feng found the fossil of a real dragon!” “Spread the word, Luo Feng found alien fossils!”
“Is it possible? Did he really find a fossil this time? Or is it like the saber-toothed tiger from last time?”
Lin Yide had been very busy these days.
He had gradually transported the purchased antiques back to the Jiangnan Museum.
But as soon as he returned and before he could even sit down, Luo Feng had uncovered another mystery?
His treasure-hunting speed was much faster than their antique purchasing.
And people were saying it was a dinosaur fossil this time around?
“Yes, there are such rumors online. I saw them in the news, but I haven’t checked the live stream yet! I don’t know if the journalists are just making things up!”
“Alright, I’ll take a look.”
Lin Yide hung up the phone with one of his museum subordinates.
He immediately took out his phone and started watching the live stream.
As soon as he saw the fossil Luo Feng had uncovered, Lin Yide knew it was not a dinosaur fossil with just one glance.
“Even if it’s not a dinosaur fossil, it should still be worth a few million!” “No way, the Jiangnan Museum’s funds are depleted; we spent everything last time!”
“Well, never mind. It’s just a single fossil, and we don’t even know what creature it belongs to. Maybe it’s not that significant.”
People without money always console themselves.
For example, why would one need an iPhone? They do not use its high-tech features anyway.
What’s the big deal with a sports car?
Their Wuling Hongguang can drive on the highway just as well.
At this moment, Lin Yide’s eyes spelled one word: poor.
[ Ding! You have found a fossil! ] [ Epoch: Middle Pleistocene! ]
[ Value: 21 million! ]
Damn!
21 million?
Luo Feng had definitely found another fossil, and not just one.
An entire set?
Now, Luo Feng was breathing heavily.
Although 21 million was not a huge amount, for Luo Feng, fossils held more value than antiques.
Most of the antiques they had found previously were predominantly of Chinese origin..
