Chapter 564 - 564: Blue-and-white Porcelain Walls! Isn’t This Ancient Tomb Too Luxurious?
However, Li Gang’s recent analysis was sound; this was not a burial artifact, after all.
Considering the quantity of blue-and-white porcelain excavated thus far and its location, it was evident that the porcelain was embedded within the walls themselves.
Glancing at the flurry of comments from those around him, Luo Feng began to speak, “In typical ancient tombs, the walls are made of rammed earth. More lavish ones might employ stone bricks. But this tomb? It’s extraordinary. It utilizes not only rammed earth and stone bricks but even incorporates porcelain bowls into the walls!”
“Damn, they really used blue-and-white porcelain for the walls?” a viewer exclaimed.
“It’s beyond luxurious; I can’t even imagine how wealthy this person must have been!” another chimed in.
“Would such walls provide sufficient support?”
“The tomb ceiling surely wouldn’t be constructed this way, would it? Perhaps it’s only the walls of the tomb passage!”
“This is truly a work of art!”
The air was abuzz as everyone widened their horizons upon hearing this revelation.
Li Gang, seizing the moment, said, “Beneath the porcelain bowls, we’ve found markings almost exclusively from the Hongwu period. We can preliminarily confirm this as a Ming Dynasty tomb!”
“But we cannot yet ascertain if this is the main burial chamber, so we dare not continue digging.”
“That’s why we have invited the highly esteemed Master Luo to guide us in entering this tomb with minimal damage,” Li Gang added with a warm smile.
Hearing an elder call him ‘Master’ made Luo Feng feel slightly embarrassed.
“It’s as Master Li says, but please, don’t call me a master. I’m merely here to assist. The real hard work rests with Master Li and his team,” Luo Feng replied courteously. “Now, let’s take a look.”
Swiftly, Luo Feng climbed out of the pit and initiated a level one scan of the area.
After all, the tomb had been discovered; now it was a matter of understanding the distribution of treasures within.
Once he had grasped how the treasures were arranged, he could infer the underlying burial structure.
The scan was completed promptly, and moments later, golden lights representing hidden treasures appeared at Luo Feng’s feet.
Dense and dazzling, they momentarily blinded him.
But the spectacle did not end there; the golden lights spread outwards in all directions.
Like droplets of blood suddenly falling into a bowl of clear water, they radiated from eight different points.
Luo Feng was taken aback; what kind of ancient tomb was this? Its design was unconventional and unexpected.
Could the ancients have been so avant-garde, even in death, creating such a design for their eternal resting place?
His thoughts were interrupted when he looked up to observe the fengshui, only to be utterly astonished.
Li Gang noticed Luo Feng’s expression change and inquired, “Master Luo, are you examining the fengshui here?”
“Yes, to understand the tomb owner’s identity, we must first consider the fengshui. A general has his standard, and an elder has his hat. The identity must align with the tomb’s fengshui to ensure prosperity for descendants. If a person of low rank is buried in favorable fengshui, it won’t be suppressed,” Luo Feng elucidated.
Li Gang nodded; this was the ancient wisdom. Emperors were buried in emperor’s fengshui, vassal kings in theirs. Such principles were not to be taken lightly.
“So, Luo Feng, what do you make of the fengshui here?” asked Master Li, an archaeological expert who knew a bit about fengshui but preferred to defer to Luo Feng’s judgment.
“Just looking at the host’s expression tells me that it must be quite impressive here!”
“It’s a pity that this place wasn’t discovered by our host; otherwise, all these treasures would have belonged to him!”
“The scope is narrow, isn’t it? As long as it’s found within our country by one of our people, that’s fine. Just as long as it’s not discovered by some foreign empire!”
After carefully scrutinizing the site, Luo Feng declared, “Below us lies a grand tomb!”
Even Li Gang was taken aback.
“You were casually brought in to assist, and now you suggest a grand tomb might be beneath our feet? Is this for real?”
“Master Luo, it appears that the fengshui here is quite remarkable!” Li Gang, intrigued, pressed for a professional analysis.
“Indeed, it’s extraordinary. Observe those two mountain peaks; Fuquan Mountain is fairly low, but these two peaks rise almost 200 meters, the highest in Fuquan. Furthermore, they connect to other peaks, creating a unified landscape!” Luo Feng began, his voice filled with excitement. “From our vantage point, what does this place resemble?”
Luo Feng then displayed a satellite map of the area on his phone.
“An ingot?” Li Gang ventured, scrutinizing the map.
“Yes, it indeed resembles an ingot! This place is a natural treasure trove, a geomantic wonder for gathering wealth!” Luo Feng proclaimed, capturing the room’s attention with his insightful analysis..
