Chapter 350: A Prime Minister’s Tomb? These Tomb Raiders Were Outrageous! (2)

Grabbing his Swallowtail Hoe, he continued digging and said, “The rammed earth here still has reactions from the fragments of tomb bricks. Below this, I believe, should be the tomb passage. Although the burial chamber has collapsed, the tomb passage should be relatively intact. You can follow me down without worry!”

It was evident that the reason behind having only seven or eight people entering the tomb this time was due to most worrying about the possibility of another collapse, which could lead to their demise.

However, under the surface, Luo Feng was actually testing the three sweethearts. If they did not follow him, what love towards him would there be to speak of? If they did not trust their man, then their relationships would merely be a plaything of fate, but in the end, they would realize they were not destined for one another. If any of them feared death and chose not to follow Luo Feng today, it would simply mean their love was not strong enough.

Yes, that was the kind of person he was. The one who is loved is always fearless. Hahaha!

“Let’s hope the main burial chamber has not completely collapsed; otherwise, even if we reach it, we will have to dig our way in with one hoe stroke at a time… ”

Luo Feng knew that if the main burial chamber had collapsed, it would be a massive undertaking to excavate it. It would undoubtedly require a lot of time and effort.

As Luo Feng dug deeper, his feet suddenly lost their footing, and a large amount of sand and soil began rolling downwards.

Luo Feng warned everyone to be careful, as it was apparent that they had broken through to the tomb passage. He peered down into the collapsed area, but he could not see the bottom as it was pitch black.

“Hahaha! The host is really something! Have you dug through to the tomb passage?”

“Get the oxygen tanks ready and just go down. What are you all still waiting

The viewers were overjoyed. A familiar sight was now replaying before them, the host had reached a familiar segment: entering the tomb. This was the part that everyone enjoyed watching the most.

After all, where else could they see such a scenario except on television dramas? And those were just special effects, whereas this was a genuine tomb excavation.

[ Ding! You have discovered an ancient tomb worth 20 million yuan! The tomb dates back to the Tang Dynasty! ]

My goodness! 20 million yuan! What had the tomb raiders done to this place? Upon hearing the price, Luo Feng’s heart immediately sank.

“The problem should not be too serious. Let us descend first! One by one, the people above will lower the rope, and I will catch you below!” Luo Feng calmly instructed.

Once the rope was secured, Luo Feng jumped down, and a short while later, he shouted from below, “The tomb passage has collapsed, but not completely! We can still go through…”

“Hehe, listening to you is better than reading for ten years!” “Host, what does this mean? It’s not completely collapsed?”

“Why bother asking so much? Just enter the tomb!”

Luo Feng was speechless; the Tang Dynasty tomb was more severely damaged than he had imagined. He initially thought that only the main burial chamber had collapsed. But now even the tomb passage had shown signs of collapse.

“Everyone, come down. Let’s think of a solution. Although part of it has collapsed, it’s only a small part of it. We can walk while clearing away the obstructing soil,” Luo Feng shouted upwards.

Soon after, The first one to descend was his first wife, Su Meiji. As she came down using the rope, Luo Feng would definitely embrace her. Indeed, while holding her, he sniffed slightly. She was a fragrant beauty.

The second to descend was his second wife, Qin Rubing. Not bad, she was also fragrant.

The third girl, Li Shishi, asked worriedly if Luo Feng was alright after descending. Of course, it was not that Su Meiji and Qin Rubing did not care about Luo Feng. But the concern of these two people was not expressed verbally. After coming down and seeing that Luo Feng’s body showed no abnormalities, they naturally felt relieved.

“The steps head downward, Meiji, you should know that this belongs to the tomb structure of the Tang Dynasty, right?” After descending, and upon seeing the distinctive Tang Dynasty tomb structure that continually sloped downward, Luo Feng asked.

“That’s right, Tang Dynasty tombs are a continuous downward slope. They are generally divided into six parts: long sloping tomb passage, entrance, shaft, sealed door, corridor, and burial chamber,” Su Meiji responded.

Su Meiji was not very knowledgeable about the tombs of the Tang Dynasty, but that was in the past. Recently, she had been treasure-hunting with Luo Feng every day. As a particularly studious person, She must have made up for a lot of knowledge. But even with her preparations, she was still no match for Luo Feng, who had an external system that directly bequeathed him with knowledge. Had Luo Feng put in honest work, there was no way he could have ever hoped to achieve what Su Meiji did.

“With such a degree of damage, we should not hold high hopes for the main chamber,” Luo Feng said with clarity. Even if there were valuable items in the burial chamber, they would have been mostly destroyed during the collapse. Though there were many treasure points, Luo Feng felt that perhaps they were only some fragmented treasures.

“This should be a professional tomb raider’s entrance!” After walking a few meters into the tomb passage, Luo Feng saw a hole above his head. Moreover, the surrounding area had not collapsed. This meant that the people who had dug down were undoubtedly very professional. They went straight to the main burial chamber. It seemed that more than one tomb robber had been here. Otherwise, how could the subsequent unprofessional tomb robbers have caused this place to collapse?

After walking down the sloping path for over an hour, they had to dig through the collapsed soil along the way, which was quite time-consuming.

After walking down the slope for about 80 meters, they reached a level tomb passage.

Of course, a slope descending 80 meters did not necessarily mean a vertical drop of 80 meters. Instead, it referred to the length of the slope. Looking ahead, there was a flat straight path about ten meters long. On the walls to the left and right of the path, there were damaged stone brick walls.

Walking over for a closer look, it seemed like this was a passageway leading to the main tomb chamber. Strictly speaking, if it was a passageway, then it was only separated from the tomb chamber by a single wall. In essence, the passageway was already considered part of the main tomb chamber. In other words, the passageway was like the entrance hall to a house.

Moreover, there should have been epitaphs in the passageway, but Luo Feng looked around and could not find any. He assumed that tomb robbers had taken them.

The surrounding walls showed signs of the previous existence of stone brick walls, but Luo Feng was puzzled. Were these stone brick walls forcefully removed? Where had they gone to?

Tomb raiders searching in tombs were like three-year-olds who loved candy they were driven by money. It was inconceivable that they would dismantle these tomb bricks piece by piece. Did they really have that much idle time?

“Its okay, we’ll unveil this mystery step by step!” Luo Feng continued toward the tomb chamber, picking up a flashlight and shining it ahead. The situation in front of him became apparent.

Luo Feng was at a loss for words. It seemed that the collapse of the tomb chamber was more severe than he had imagined. The tomb chamber was quite large, probably covering an area of about 1000 square meters. Half of the tomb chamber’s ceiling had collapsed. As for the burial items… Well, he did not see any, except for a single coffin and piles of collapsed earth.

The collapse of the tomb chamber could have been overlooked if it were not for the floor tiles, which seemed to have been pried open as if someone had dug three feet deep into the ground. Luo Feng was utterly bewildered.

What kind of tomb raiders had operated at this site? How ruthless could they be? After stealing the burial items, did they really have to take the floor tiles as well?

“Goodness, what kind of ancient tomb is this? It’s so tragic!”

“Even the tomb chamber’s floor tiles have been dug up?”

“Could it be the tomb owner’s enemy? Normal tomb robbers wouldn’t dig like this, right?”

“You’re not a tomb robber yourself, so how do you know they aren’t interested in the floor tiles? What if the tiles were valuable treasures?”

At that moment, Luo Feng stared at the collapsed ceiling. Structurally speaking, the collapsed ceiling and the earth above were balanced, so it should not have collapsed any further. He reassured everyone before leading them forward.

Once inside, Luo Feng was even more astonished. There were no intact floor tiles to be found. It was absolutely ruthless.

“I think we should leave. All the good stuff is gone, and it could still collapse!” Qin Rubing suggested.

“It’s fine. It won’t collapse anymore. Let’s just see what’s going on here,” Luo Feng replied, knowing that many gold treasure markers were buried underneath the rubble. However, its value of 20 million had been severely compromised due to the damage.

“There’s a stone tablet here!” Luo Feng quickly discovered a large stone block. The location of the stone tablet appeared to have been moved, as if it had been placed there casually.

Luo Feng quickly looked at the stone tablet and, with a smile, revealed the tomb owner’s identity: “This should be the tomb of a prime minister from the

Tang Dynasty….”
