In short, it was unlikely that there was an ancient tomb here.

It was not a location suitable for burials, after all.

Judging from the items unearthed thus far, it could be roughly deduced that this area had been used for worship in the past.

“So, you’re saying there’s no tomb down there, right?”

“No tomb? What’s the point of these pillars then?”

“That jade pillar seems pretty valuable, doesn’t it? I think it’s even better than finding an ancient tomb!”

Luo Feng looked around in the four cardinal directions, in all four directions, jade pillars had been excavated.

All that was left was the center.

With that, he then began digging at the center…

Half an hour later.

As expected.

[ Ding! Stele! Dynasty: Han! ]

[ Value: 3 million! ]

Very quickly, but also cautiously, Luo Feng dug out the item, revealing to his viewers that it was a stele with a base.

It was rectangular in shape, was about 1.6 meters in length, and around 60 centimeters wide.

The base featured a pattern of clouds.

On the stele, a large character was written: Han!

“Is this the ‘Han’ from the Han Dynasty?”

“Is it truly a Han Dynasty worship site?”

“Is this stone made out of jade or is it just an ordinary rock?”

“It’s probably just stone. Jade doesn’t look as dull as this.”

At that moment, Luo Feng examined the stele and discovered that aside from the character ‘Han’, nothing else was written on it.

Luo Feng then spoke, “This is just an ordinary stone, similar to those seen in the palace. They are used for building steps for palace halls. Some imperial tombs also use such stones. However, these types of steles usually record the emperor’s achievements. There is no need for such a thing in a worship ceremony. I wonder why a stele like this is present at a worship site? And why is there only the character ‘Han’ on it? It’s quite strange.”

Seeing this, Qin Rubing commented, “I don’t think it’s strange. If it’s a royal worship ceremony of the Han Dynasty, having the character ‘Han’ is normal. It wouldn’t make sense to have the character ‘Qin’, right?”

Luo Feng chuckled, “The character ‘Han’ represents the nation. Why would they bury the nation’s name? There was no tradition of worshipping the nation’s name in ancient times. They either worshipped deities or their ancestors!” “So it seems, it is indeed a bit strange!” Su Meiji nodded in agreement. Despite the confusion he felt, Luo Feng continued digging.

After a few meters, he found another silver rope.

And more steles.

In total, there were eight steles.

Each stele had the character ‘Han’ on it.

They were located at eight different positions.

“This arrangement doesn’t seem like a worship site either!” Luo Feng’s conviction wavered after excavating the eight steles.

Each stele bore a single ‘Han’ character.

“Old Luo, stop worrying about the steles! Hurry up and keep digging!”

“I think there must be an ancient tomb down there!”

“Exactly! Who knows what treasures might be buried?”

“Just because we found jade pillars and steles doesn’t mean it’s a worship site.

It must be a tomb!”

Luo Feng ignored them, glanced at the time, and noticed it was getting late.

He called everyone to have some food and rest before continuing.

After eating, Luo Feng looked at the place where the dragon energy converged and said, “Ancient sacrificial ceremonies, called Fengshan, usually took place during times of peace and prosperity, or when the heavens bestowed auspicious signs. There are only these two scenarios. In Fengshan, the worship is directed towards heaven and earth, essentially hoping for approval from the heavens. Moreover, such worship ceremonies require the construction of a platform that can withstand the test of time — a sacrificial altar that can last for centuries! The altar has strict regulations, consisting of two parts: the round altar and the square altar. In ancient times, heaven was considered round, and earth was considered square. Therefore, the round altar should be set up at the summit, to pay tribute to the achievements of heaven. The square altar would be placed at the foot of the mountain, to honor the achievements of earth.” “Although the fengshui here is excellent, the altitude is merely a few hundred meters above sea level.”

“If one wants to worship heaven, a high peak is needed!”

“Such an altitude doesn’t meet the standards for a Fengshan ceremony!”

Luo Feng thought hard.

The more he pondered, the more puzzled he became.

Fengshan could not have taken place here.

However, it did not seem like a typical worship site either.

It was truly vexing.

“Everyone, let’s work overtime today, bear with the hardship, and keep digging! ”

“If we don’t figure out what’s going on here, how can we sleep? After having their fill, Luo Feng called out to everyone.

They resumed the excavation.

A clank could be heard.

As Luo Feng dug towards the first treasure spot after the break, he felt that he had struck something.

“Everyone, come dig here! There’s something below!” Luo Feng called out, and everyone rushed to dig at the spot.

In about twenty minutes or so.

It was already around seven or eight o’clock in the evening.

Luo Feng put on a headlamp and peered into the excavated pit.

It was a piece of cloth that was almost decayed.

It had almost merged and become one with the soil.

It appeared to be from a long time ago.

Clearing the mud around it, he saw that the cloth, now nearly decomposed, was covering a square object inside it.

[ Ding! You have found a jade seal! Han Dynasty! Value: 100 million! ]

A jade seal?

Luo Feng was momentarily excited.

But he did not let it get to him too much.

After all, during ancient Fengshan ceremonies, gold and silver ropes, as well as jade seals, were commonplace.

“It’s a box? Luo Feng. What could be contained inside?” Su Meiji asked after Luo Feng had taken the box out.

“Don’t you remember what I’ve said?”

‘”The White Tiger Book’ records: ‘Some say Fengshan involves gold clay and silver ropes, or stone clay and gold ropes, sealing with seals.’ ‘

“From this, we can see that a jade seal is a must-have item for Fengshan rituals!”
