Chapter 181 - 181 Suppressing with a Sword! Whoever’s Buried Here is Someone Special! (1)
“Do you even need to ask? It must be treasure, right?”
“I suspect this might be a burial ground; perhaps the box contains gold and treasures!”
Due to the angle of the camera, only a few of the wealthy second-generation heirs at the scene had seen the skull inside the box. The rest of Luo Feng’s viewers had not yet seen it.
!!
Luo Feng calmed himself and adjusted the angle of the box slightly to face the camera. Light shone into the box, revealing its contents.
My goodness.
The audience in the live-streaming room was caught off guard, some even jumped in fright.
“What the hell!?”
“A human skull?”
“Mommy, that scared me to death! Please do not scare people like that!”
“My wife was moving around in my arms, and just now, well, you know what happened!”
“Hahaha, ask the host to take you to see a doctor, and don’t leave the hospital until you are cured!”
Luo Feng showed the skull to everyone before closing the box once more and placing it back into its original pit.
He looked at the overall arrangement of the objects.
There were 8 tomb-sealing bricks.
The 8 positions were undoubtedly arranged according to the Eight Trigrams.
And the stone box was in the center of the Eight Trigrams.
Of course, there were also 5 ancient jade pendants surrounding the stone box containing the skull.
Luo Feng picked up yet another one of the tomb-sealing bricks and inspected the patterns inscribed on it. They seemed to be some Taoist symbol of sorts, but Luo Feng was unclear of what purpose they served.
Nevertheless, he did not ponder any further. Instead, he quickly began digging at another treasure spot.
Meanwhile, the viewers continued discussing the skull they had just seen.
“What the hell kind of burial ground is this? Why would there be a severed head buried here?”
“Could this be Guan Yu’s tomb? I heard Guan Yu’s head was chopped off, and then Sun Quan sent it to Cao Cao, right?”
“Idiot, he should be buried in Xuchang or Luoyang, there’s no way this is the case!”
“This seems more like a tomb of honor, doesn’t it?”
“I think so too, considering only a head was left. Who else would bury just a head?”
“At this late hour, the host is really making a fuss, bringing out something so terrifying!”
“I think it’s not a tomb of honor, but a tomb of malevolence!”
“Yeah, who would use random stones to bury an honorable tomb? Even a tomb of honor would have some kind of order!”
At this moment, Luo Feng heard a chime.
[ Ding! You’ve unearthed a treasure sword. ]
[ Ming dynasty! Valued at 4.3 million! ]
Wow!
Now that’s something valuable!
Finally, Luo Feng had found something valuable since entering the mountains.
Initially, he thought that even if there were any ancient tombs here, they would be of little significance.
He did not expect such a pleasant surprise.
Compared to the medicinal herbs he found the day before, this treasure sword was undoubtedly priceless.
“But, why is the sword buried upright in the ground?”
Luo Feng was speechless.
This treasure sword was indeed buried upright in the soil.
It was important to note that such placement would not be considered a burial object for the tomb’s owner but rather part of some kind of formation.
Luo Feng’s suspicions were increasingly being confirmed.
“F * ck! A treasured sword?”
“There’s a sword buried vertically in front of the tomb?”
“What kind of burial culture is this? I’ve never heard of it!”
“I told you, it’s a malevolent tomb, not some cultural practice. The sword is there to suppress the evil contained within!”
“The tomb’s owner must have offended many people in life. No one would be buried like this under normal circumstances.”
As Luo Feng continued digging, he unearthed a pit about 1.5 meters deep, revealing the full view of the upright sword.
There was not much soil left beneath the sword. Luo Feng reached out, trying to pull the sword out.
“Huh! Why is it stuck on something?”
As Luo Feng tried to pull out the sword, he found it stuck on something beneath it.
Feeling helpless, he continued to dig in the direction of the sword tip.
Once the area was cleared, a large piece of white bone was revealed.
...
Damn!
The bone was quite large.
Luo Feng dug for another ten minutes or so.
Finally, a massive bone was unearthed.
In short, the sword was embedded in this bone.
It was no wonder Luo Feng could not pull it out earlier.
Holding the sword with one hand and stepping on the bone with the other, Luo Feng applied some force and managed to pull the sword out of the bone.
Witnessing this scene, both the rich second-generation onlookers and the viewers from the livestream were left with cold sweats on their foreheads. It was the first time they had seen such a scenario.
“Given such treatment, the tomb’s owner must have offended many people in life!”
“It’s not an exaggeration to say that their crimes were heinous; otherwise, things wouldn’t be so complicated!”
“It’s ruthless! Even after hundreds of years, I can still feel the hatred the tomb builders had for the tomb’s owner!”
...
Everyone was at a loss for words.
Even the most inexperienced among them could tell that this kind of burial was not a normal one.
Rather, it was a form of suppression.
“Seems like a cow’s skull right?”
After seeing the full picture of the bone, Luo Feng casually commented.
“Huh? It’s actually a cow’s skull? What’s going on?”
“Weird, they’re using a cow skull instead of a human skull this time?”
“Where would you find such a large human skull? Although it’s somewhat damaged, you can tell it’s not a human head!”
“A sword stuck in a cow’s skull, what kind of burial culture is this?”
Luo Feng shook his head and said, “This isn’t any burial culture or custom. Everyone, take a look at the sword’s blade. There are quite a few notches, indicating that before it was buried, this sword was used to chop wood or perhaps to cut people.”
Luo Feng, however, felt that the latter was more likely.
After all, treasure swords like this one were generally possessed by skilled individuals in ancient times. If someone needed to chop wood, they would just use an ordinary axe. Why would they use a treasure sword to cut wood?
