Upon boarding the helicopter, Luo Feng had already grasped the comprehensive layout of the Thousand Hills.
Firstly, the Thousand Hills were the site of a dragon vein, a ley line that pervaded the entire landscape. However, this was not a genuine dragon vein, as it did not possess the caliber of a latent dragon vein, and more so resembled a pseudo-dragon.
What was there to sever in such a dragon vein?
Secondly, this dragon vein had been disrupted by humans. Both the pavilions and ancient wells had been constructed with the specific intent of interrupting this dragon vein.
Thirdly, although no traces could be found to date the age of the ancient well, Luo Feng inferred from the pavilions scattered across the Thousand Hills’ dragon vein that they were likely built during the same era.
Luo Feng had initially guessed that the individual responsible for severing the dragon vein was none other than Liu Bowen.
“Little Luo, have you made any new discoveries?” came a voice over the phone.
Upon finishing his aerial survey, Luo Feng had called the director of the Huaxia Cultural Relics Bureau.
The director, aware of Luo Feng’s exploration in the Thousand Hills, inquired about his findings.
“Nothing particularly striking has been discovered yet; I’m still investigating.
Can the bureau confirm the construction dates of the various temples and
Taoist institutions in the Thousand Hills?”
“What do you need this information for?”
“It will certainly be useful!”
“Very well, provide me with the names, and I’ll look it up for you.”
After ending the call, Luo Feng organized the names of these temples and sent them over.
Being the director, the man’s efficiency was commendable. In just over ten minutes, he had gathered most of the information Luo Feng had requested. One of the temples had been built during the Tang Dynasty and had been relocated and rebuilt during the Hongwu era. The remaining temples were also constructed during the Hongwu period.
These temples validated Luo Feng’s hypothesis – they were part of the operation to sever the dragon vein.
“Commence a level-three scan!” he ordered.
Afterwards, Luo Feng needed more evidence, and thus began another scan. When the scan was complete, several treasure markers appeared beneath his feet.
Luo Feng gave a slight smile.
“There must be another pavilion here.”
“Luo Feng, what are you laughing at?” Qin Rubing inquired.
“There’s a pavilion beneath us!”
Upon hearing Luo Feng’s statement, everyone present seemed taken aback. They had not even begun digging, yet Luo Feng was claiming a pavilion was beneath them. It was as if he had X-ray vision.
Bemused and astounded, they began the excavation. After about ten minutes, they uncovered something.
[ Ding! You’ve unearthed a Thunder God pillar! ]
Upon sighting this Thunder God pillar, everyone was once again surprised. Luo Feng had been correct about the pavilion. It seemed as if he had buried the pillar centuries ago himself. It was truly astounding.
“Damn, how did he do that? All he did was claim that there was something beneath us and it ended up being true?”
“Don’t tell me you can discern a pavilion’s presence through Feng Shui?”
“If it weren’t for the fact that he is Luo Feng, I would have thought this was a scripted event!”
Luo Feng laughed and said, “While a pavilion might not be as revealing as an ancient tomb when it comes to Feng Shui, you can still analyze its patterns!”
After instructing people to move the Thunder God pillar, Luo Feng resumed his search. Sima Yi’s tomb still remained elusive, which caused some anxiety in Luo Feng. Sima Yi was a prominent figure in the Cao Wei era. Even if his tomb was located miles away, the Feng Shui would not be subpar. This area, before the dragon vein was severed, was of pseudo-dragon caliber, fitting for someone of Sima Yi’s status.
But under such circumstances, how could Liu Bowen overlook this? A man of his caliber could likely discern the tomb’s location at a glance.
Not long after, Luo Feng excavated another ancient well.
[ Ding, ancient well from the Ming Dynasty, value: 20 million! ]
It was evident that the items beneath the well had not changed, they were still stone pegs engraved with dragons. Similarly, the well’s stone cover was also adorned with dragon carvings.
Half an hour later, Luo Feng initiated another level-three scan.
“Damn, why are there so many pavilions and ancient wells? Are there even more in the mountains?”
“I’m losing it, can we stop finding these repetitive things?”
The treasure hunters scattered around, envious of Luo Feng’s continuous discoveries of ancient wells, while Luo Feng himself felt somewhat exasperated.
Indeed, without comparison, there is no disappointment to be had.
By the evening of the third day, Luo Feng had excavated a total of twenty-nine ancient wells. After an evening spent discussing the ancient wells with two beautiful women, they embraced each other and fell asleep.
It was an improvement from just sleeping after a long day of work. Although Qin Rubing was a novice in comparison to Luo Feng, the conversation kept them engaged.
“Level-three scan!”
On the morning of the fourth day, Luo Feng set off once again. After the scan was completed, a scattering of treasure markers nearby caught Luo Feng’s attention. Upon closer inspection, Luo Feng was somewhat speechless – the shape resembled a Thunder God pillar.
He made his way towards the east of the Thousand Hills. Night fell in the blink of an eye, and Luo Feng led everyone to set up camp and rest.
In the morning, Luo Feng arrived at the peak of the Thousand Hills, looking for an open, unobstructed location. Shortly, several mountain peaks appeared before Luo Feng.
Nine peaks lay ahead..
