“Is this a message from Liang Liang? Does he mean that if someone were to reach this place, they should just take the treasures away, but leave the structures intact?”
“After all, this is the battleground where Zhuge Liang extended the fate of the
Han Dynasty! ”
“Of course, he would not want it to be destroyed.”
With that in mind, Luo Feng proceeded to open the box. A clicking sound resonated as the lock was undone. Inside the box, there were three items: an animal hide, a wooden plaque, and a bamboo scroll.
“Is this Zhuge Liang’s treasure? They look like minor trinkets. I cannot see how they could be considered treasures!” Li Shishi commented, suggesting that Liang Liang might be too stingy.
Luo Feng decided to put the animal hide down first, as holding it could easily cause damage. He would examine it more closely later when it could be better protected. Picking up the wooden plaque, he saw three characters on it: “Cao
Cao’s Tomb?”
“What?!” everyone gasped.
“Cao Cao’s tomb? What does this mean? Was the Memorials of Dispatch written by Cao Cao?” they asked.
“Is this not Zhuge Liang’s tomb?”
“You fools, this is the treasure given by Zhuge Liang. If the words ‘Cao Cao’s Tomb’ appear, it means that the animal hide might have records of the real tomb of Cao Cao, meaning, it’s a treasure map!” someone explained. “Wait, was Cao Cao’s tomb not already discovered?” another person questioned.
“Experts confirmed it years ago! That really was Cao Cao’s tomb!” someone else added.
“Unbelievable! If that’s a fake tomb, where is the real one? Is it recorded on the animal hide?”
“I heard that the discovered tomb of Cao Cao is rather humble, but the real one might be truly extraordinary? There could be countless treasures lying in wait!”
Even without the viewers’ comments, Luo Feng believed that the animal hide and bamboo scroll contained the location of Cao Cao’s tomb. He was excited— thrilled, even. Beneath the empty altar lay the authentic Memorials of Dispatch as well as the records of the locations of two incredible treasures.
“Let us wait for Master Gu! We will examine it more carefully later!” he suggested.
Luo Feng would not let the livestream viewers see such items, nor would he let the wealthy onlookers see them.
“Come on, host! Can you not share it with us?” a viewer begged.
“Yeah, I just want to see it! I will not search for it, I promise!”
Ignoring their pleas, Luo Feng closed the box. The onlookers could only watch him, disappointed yet hopeful. He then opened another box, which contained the same three items: a wooden plaque, an animal hide, and a bamboo scroll.
“Simayi’s tomb?”
“What?! Two treasure maps?!”
“Host, you must do a giveaway! Draw a winner for the treasure maps!”
“Haha, that is hilarious! Zhuge Liang died before Simayi. How could he know where Simayi’s tomb would be?” someone else pointed out.
“Exactly! As amazing as Liang Liang was, could he really predict the future?” another person asked.
“Host, open it up and see! It must be fake!”
Luo Feng, of course, did not listen to them. He simply placed the object back in the box and said, “Who do you think Zhuge Liang was? He wouldn’t use such an item to deceive someone. You have overlooked a detail; in ancient times, people could prepare their tombs while they were still alive! Some emperors began constructing their tombs as soon as they ascended the throne. So, even if Zhuge Liang died first, knowing the location of Sima Yi’s tomb would be perfectly normal! ”
Luo Feng scanned the tomb chamber and found no other treasures. “All right, there’s nothing else down here. Let’s head back up.”
In no time, Luo Feng and the others, including several rich second-generation heirs and a few goddess-like women, resurfaced. They removed their gas masks and began taking deep breaths of fresh air.
News of their discoveries quickly spread online: “Luo Feng uncovers the authentic Memorials of Dispatch!”
“Cao Cao’s tomb treasure map!”
“Sima Yi’s tomb treasure map!”
And so on, causing a sensation on the internet. Various comments emerged, with many people suspecting that Zhuge Liang was the true ancestor of tomb raiding. In comparison, Cao Cao’s sanctioned tomb raiders and others seemed like mere amateurs.
“Mr. Luo, do you plan to sell the two treasure maps?
“No, thank you.” “Mr. Luo, we can offer you a price you can’t refuse!”
“Get lost! ”
Luo Feng hung up his phone.
Who did these people think they were?
Foreigners again?
He already had a net worth of billions, so why would he be interested in their stinky money? The only thing that might catch his interest would be an arrangement involving ten stunning beauties to pamper him completely. But even then, Luo Feng still would not be swayed.
The goddesses by his side were already beautiful, and more beautiful women would still have the same features. Luo Feng sighed and wondered if there was truly any difference.
Despite all this, the value of these treasures was practically limitless. Although neither of the two figures was an emperor during their lifetimes, they undoubtedly possessed imperial power. Cao Cao was the founder of Cao Wei, and his authority always remained in his grasp. Sima Yi, in the later years, became an influential figure in Cao Wei as well. After their deaths, their descendants became emperors and posthumously granted them imperial titles. If Sima Qian were alive, both of them would have been written into the Imperial Annals.
The value of such tombs was boundless. Just finding them would undoubtedly reveal countless treasures. Their worth could range from several hundred million to even more.
Luo Feng silenced his phone to avoid further interruptions. “Master Gu, you’ve arrived?” A helicopter buzzed overhead and landed nearby. Luo Feng went over to greet the newcomers.
“Are there really treasure maps and the authentic Memorials of Dispatch here?”
“They’re definitely authentic! Are you planning to conduct an archaeological excavation here?” Luo Feng asked.
“Of course, we will!” Gu Santong replied.
“Alright then, I’ll leave this area to your archaeological team. I haven’t fully excavated the jade pillars and silver cords, so once you’ve dug them up, send them to my museum,” Luo Feng instructed.
“Don’t worry! Leave it to us!” Gu Santong nodded. Several times before, Luo Feng had left the cleanup work to Gu Santong’s archaeological team, which had greatly expedited his treasure-hunting progress.
“Little Luo, can’t you take a break? Do you have to keep digging?” Gu Santong asked as he arranged for some team members to go down to the altar’s base. At this moment, he truly admired Luo Feng’s dedication. Was he really unable to stop searching for tombs and relics?
However, Gu Santong was most eager to see the treasure maps of Cao Cao’s tomb and Sima Yi’s tomb. Where exactly were the locations recorded?
“Of course, I have to keep digging. I’ve already spent tens of millions on my permit!” Luo Feng said, chuckling. “As I’ve mentioned before, I, Luo Feng, don’t like wasting resources.”
Gu Santong was left speechless. With Luo Feng’s net worth in the billions, was tens of millions really that significant? The dinosaur relics and fossilized bones they had unearthed were enough to fill an extra-large museum. Selling them would also yield billions.
And now, he had several huge jade pillars, silver cords, and the treasure maps at his disposal as well. Luo Feng’s net worth could soon reach a trillion. But everything depended on the situation with Cao Cao’s and Sima Yi’s tombs. Treasure maps like these could potentially sell for as much as 100 billion, and people from all over the world would compete for them.
Suddenly, the sound of another helicopter echoed in the sky. Everyone looked up and saw that it was an American helicopter with English writing on the fuselage.
Several familiar faces appeared, among them, the representatives from the New York museum they had encountered before. It seemed they had brought a considerable amount of US dollars, hoping to purchase the two treasure maps from Luo Feng..
