Chapter 480: Level Ten Scanning! Want to Compete with Me in Treasure Hunting? (2)

“Laughable! Do you intend to locate your military fort using geomancy?”
Luo Feng temporarily halted his livestream, addressing his trusted companions with a smirk, “Even a military fort can be determined by its too high, but it cannot be too low either. Too high, and there are problems with water supply. Too low, and there is risk of flooding. Secondly, it must be defensible, a military fort is primarily a supply base for food and weapons, it would be easily swept by enemy forces if discovered during exchange. Lastly, it must be concealed.”
After these explanations, everyone acquired some knowledge, though it might not be particularly useful.
However, Luo Feng changed the subject, saying, “But this is a military fort where gold is hidden in, perhaps when choosing the site, these aspects were intentionally avoided. For instance, when constructing a tomb, one can intentionally avoid favorable Feng Shui. In this way, who would locate the tomb using Feng Shui? Yet even when avoiding the requirements of a military fort’s location, safety factors must still be considered!”
“In summary, our search location should neither strictly comply with the standards of a military fort, nor should it completely contradict them!”
“Because if it is too compliant, it will easily be discovered, and if it does not comply at all, safety issues arise.”
“We are looking for a location that somewhat fits, but also somewhat does not!”
“To put it in Feng Shui terms, the Feng Shui of the location should neither be too good, nor too poor!”
Luo Feng’s analysis was reasonable.
Those who had hidden the gold in the past.
They must have been wary of their countrymen’s pursuit.
They could not choose a location that was an excellent site for a military fort.
Such places would be easily discovered.
“So how do we find such a location?” Li Shishi asked. “Heh, for example, this place.”
At this point, Luo Feng’s scan had concluded.
Within a radius of ten kilometers, there were no large clusters of treasure points.
But he still pointed to a location, “Over there, it is extremely suitable for building a military fort! Let us go there first!” Soon after.
Luo Feng ushered everyone into the helicopter.
The distance was considerable.
Luo Feng did not want to search step by step.
Are you backed into a corner?
Well then, let me, Luo Feng, use my full power. Previously, I was holding back.
I will do a large-scale scan, then use the helicopter as a means of transport. Do you wish to compete with me?
Is this some sort of joke?
Shortly, the aircraft descended slowly, maintaining a height of around fifty meters from the ground.
Sitting in the helicopter, Luo Feng observed the terrain below with an expert eye.
This was not for the viewers, but for the cherry blossom country’s treasure hunting team.
Luo Feng knew that these people were likely watching his livestream now.
“I’ll go down first and have a look. You all wait here for me!”
If one is to play a part, they must commit fully.
Luo Feng descended the helicopter along a rope.
He picked up his Swallowtail Hoe and started digging.
In less than two minutes, Luo Feng stated, “There should be nothing here!”
“Damn, you just started digging and you’ve already decided there’s nothing here?”
“Exactly, not even five minutes in and you’re done?”
“Yeah, a military fort can’t possibly be that shallow, right? Maybe you should dig some more?”
Luo Feng did not bother with pleasantries; he climbed into the helicopter and pointed towards another area, saying, “That location is also suitable for a military fort. Let’s take a look!”
In about ten minutes, Luo Feng had touched down once again. He had switched locations five or six times, each time digging for a few minutes before moving on. This left his online viewers in awe.
Meanwhile, the treasure hunters from the cherry blossom nation started laughing, “Look, this Luo Feng is getting anxious. He has chosen locations that indeed are very suitable for military forts. However, he does not dig very deeply before moving on. Perhaps he fears we will swoop in and seize the site first. He does not seem to look closely. Perhaps the real military fort is hidden among these places he has visited.” “How long till we get there?” one asked.
“Just a few minutes!”
Put another way, Luo Feng seemed to be in a rush at this point. He barely inspected each new location before hastily departing. There was a chance that Luo Feng had missed the real military fort during his hasty inspections.
“It seems like Luo Feng is really in a hurry!” one commented. “After all, these past few days have been quite frantic for him. If he slows down to analyze, he might lose out to others who are faster on their feet!”
“Yes, these treasure hunters have been pressing hard, always right behind him.
They are numerous and professional!”
A few old museum curators watching the live stream were also extremely worried at this point. They wished deeply for Luo Feng to find the gold immediately so that these annoying individuals would retreat.
“Begin the level ten scan again!” Luo Feng commanded, seated in the helicopter as he looked down. They had moved beyond the range of the previous level ten scan. After a long wait for the scanning process, Luo Feng spoke: “Mount Changbai is simply too vast. If I can’t find it, they won’t be able to either!”
“Host, aren’t you being too impatient?” a viewer asked. “You barely inspect a location suitable for a military fort, dig a little, and then leave. It’s very likely you will miss something!”
“Exactly, even if you are very skilled, you can’t possibly determine whether a military fort exists underneath in such a short period of time, right?” “Take it slow and ignore them. It’s not a guarantee they’ll have good luck!”
In other words, Luo Feng was helping the cherry blossom country’s team identify locations with no gold but suitable for a military fort, causing them to scatter their forces and waste their time. After all, they had to inspect carefully due to their large numbers.
“Three kilometers away? The treasure markers are densely packed there!” Luo Feng remarked once the scan had concluded.
“Seven kilometers away, there is also a dense cluster of treasure points?”
Luo Feng studied the shape of the two treasure clusters. The former looked like a large round cake. Luo Feng had encountered this situation twice before—it was likely the burial site for soldiers. The latter’s treasure points formed a long strip. This place looked like a military fort. After all, treasure points often roughly depicted the shape of tombs or military forts. It was improbable for a military fort to form a round shape; it was certainly a mass burial site.
“Let’s go to that location!” Luo Feng pointed towards the place likely to be a military fort, seeing no need to hide anymore. The opponents had been diverted to the locations he had briefly inspected, leaving their forces rather thin. They were incapable of sending anyone to scout ahead of Luo Feng.
Luo Feng started digging, and approximately ten minutes later, a sound rang out,
[ You have discovered a military fort! Valued at 40 billion yuan! ]
Upon hearing this, Luo Feng laughed.. This had to be the location of the hidden gold, or else it would not be worth 40 billion yuan!
