“Apologies for my tardiness. I had to take a flight here and then borrow an off-road vehicle from a friend, so it took a while,” Su Meiji bowed slightly to everyone as she got out of the car.
“No worries, we did not wait long!”
“It has only been two minutes!”
“Yes, actually, you arrived just in time!”
Before Luo Feng could say anything, the group of wealthy young heirs started chattering excitedly. They were quite generous when it came to beautiful women. If an unattractive woman had kept them waiting even for a second, they would not have been so forgiving. Physical appearance was crucial in this society, regardless of the occasion.
“Your climbing gear looks great! Very stylish. But just a heads up, there will be hardships once we head into the mountains. You can still back out now if you want,” Luo Feng said, smiling contentedly as he admired her unmatched figure.
Su Meiji’s tight leather climbing outfit accentuated her sensual curves, which were quite a sight to behold. Her overall figure was incredibly voluptuous, with curves that could drive anyone mad. Her little cliffs, in particular, were rather enticing.
“If I could not endure hardships, I would not have come,” Su Meiji replied. She was a self-made wealthy young woman, unafraid of hardships. In her early twenties, she often worked late into the night and traveled for business. This was something many pampered second-generation rich heirs could not compare to.
Of course, her interest in joining the treasure hunt was piqued after watching Luo Feng’s livestreams for a long time. She had wanted to join for a while but was too busy to do so.
“Alright, since the beautiful lady says it is no problem, let us head into the mountains!”
“Let’s go!”
Luo Feng raised his hand, pointing towards the mountain range. The group shouted in unison, then proceeded towards the mountains.
These were the Qinling Mountains, one of the few mystical mountain ranges in China. The faces of the wealthy young people were filled with anticipation and excitement.
Once inside the mountains, Luo Feng tried to find a relatively open area to test the power of his Sixteen True Words Feng Shui Secret Manual. However, the vegetation in the mountains obstructed his view, and using a drone proved futile as well. The Feng Shui in the Qinling Mountains was so good that it was possible for ancient tombs to be found anywhere. Perhaps the ancient Feng Shui knowledge was based on the mountain range itself.
As they walked and dug along the way, Luo Feng occasionally glanced at Su Meiji, concerned about her stamina. He knew the others’ physical capabilities, but he was unsure if Su Meiji could keep up. As the leader, he had to care not only for the beautiful woman but also for the entire team’s vulnerable members.
However, after trekking for some time, he found that Su Meiji’s stamina was much better than that of Li Shishi, who wanted to rest after two hours of walking. The other wealthy young heirs with weaker bodies were also struggling. Luo Feng immediately called for a twenty-minute break.
“I did not expect you to be so strong, even stronger than many of the guys!” Luo Feng said to Su Meiji as he took a sip of water beneath a tree.
“It is not that impressive. After the busy years in my early twenties, I started paying more attention to my health and often went hiking when I had free time,” Su Meiji replied, taking a small, elegant sip of water.
After exchanging a few casual words, Luo Feng looked ahead and activated his system.
“Scan this area!”
The Level 4 scanner was activated, and soon, 13 treasure points appeared in his vision.
After everyone had rested for 20 minutes, Luo Feng led the team as they resumed their stop-and-dig journey.
Ding!
You have found a super energy drink.
Ding!
You have found another super energy drink.
Ding!
You have found an insect repellent.
Ding!
You have found sunscreen.
Throughout the morning, they found nothing but energy drinks and other miscellaneous items. Although they had not discovered any treasures, these props were in short supply after their previous expedition, so Luo Feng was still quite pleased.
“Hey, it seems like you are having trouble finding treasures after changing locations, huh?”
“Yeah, half the day has passed, and you have found nothing!”
“Look at your view count! Almost 10 million people have left since this morning!”
“You started with 27 million viewers, and now you only have 18 million!”
“Isn’t this place supposed to have the highest concentration of ancient tombs in China? Why haven’t you found even a single one?”
“Well, it’s n?lVe to think that. Most of the tombs that are easy to find have already been discovered. The undiscovered ones are bound to be difficult to locate.”
At that moment, Luo Feng was digging up more items, as well as some Qinling specialty national treasure-level protected plants: the Single Leaf Grass and Taibai Redwood. However, given their protected status and the fact that they were still alive, Luo Feng naturally did not disturb them.
Moreover, he had even gone as far as to alert the authorities to their presence, as he knew his livestream could potentially attract unscrupulous individuals.
At around 4 p.m., Luo Feng arrived at a treasure point and dug up something with a clang.
[ Ding! You have found a piece of jade worth 3,000 yuan! ]
Luo Feng was slightly puzzled. It was indeed jade, but why was there no indication of its historical era? Under normal circumstances, this could mean a jade mine. But that was not the case either, as jade mines would not have deposits right below the surface.
After all, Luo Feng had found it the moment he started digging..
