However, while Luo Feng was deep in thought, footsteps approached from outside the tomb chamber.
It was Cai Guobin.
The member of Gu Santong’s archaeological team skilled in lock-picking.
“Little Cai is here?” Luo Feng licked the corner of his mouthO and chuckled.
“Unlock this quickly!” Gu Santong urged the 30-year-old Cai Guobin impatiently.
“No problem, leave it to me. I can definitely handle this! ” Cai Guobin spoke and placed two boxes on a soft cushion.
The others gathered around to watch.
One box was made of jade, the other of stone.
One had a bronze lock, while the other had a stone lock.
“Call me when it’s unlocked!” Gu Santong advised, knowing that unlocking ancient locks required patience and skill.
Staring at the process would not be interesting.

“Why move it now? We can take it with us when we leave later!” Master Gu replied, then pondered and asked, “Is there something beneath the gold?”
“Of course there is!” Luo Feng said, “The tomb owner needed to suppress the tomb’s energy. The fake tomb had already been suppressed, so burying gold here must serve another purpose! Why were the feet of the clay figure made of red gold? It was used to suppress whatever was inside the stone box!”
“The large chunk of gold in the pit was not used to suppress the tomb’s energy either but to suppress whatever was beneath it!”
“Moreover, Master Gu, look at the gold. It’s covered in runes!”
“I am not sure what exactly they say. Even if we brought a Taoist priest, they would likely not understand the Qin Dynasty’s Taoist culture.”
Gu Santong nodded in agreement with Luo Feng’s analysis.
It did seem as if it was suppressing something beneath it rather than the tomb’s overall energy.
Several strong team members were summoned.
rlhvvo of them lifted the gold slab.
It was indeed heavy.
Although it appeared to be a thin piece, it probably weighed around 120 pounds.
“Is it a half-meter-long box beneath the gold?” Su Meiji asked as the gold was removed, “And it’s a golden-colored box?”
“Damn! Is this an endless nesting doll? Beneath the gold, there’s another golden box?”
“Haha, endless nesting dolls, it feels like something straight out of a !”
“What on earth is it? Another golden box?”
“Host, I have a feeling something big is inside. Hurry up and open the box!”
Luo Feng was astounded. How could there be so much gold? In ancient times, gold was incredibly valuable.
How wealthy was the tomb owner?
“This is a golden lock? And it’s not just for show…” Master Gu examined it and immediately became speechless.
“Uh…” Luo Feng forced a smile and said, “Why don’t we call your lock-picking team member to open this golden box first?”
After all, it was common knowledge that the golden box would attract more attention.
Luo Feng also believed that the contents of the golden box might be even more valuable.
“Little Cai, put down the box you’re working on and come unlock this golden box!”
“A golden box?” Cai Guobin was speechless, but he did not immediately come over. The stone lock on the stone box he was working on had just been opened.
With a click, it opened.
Cai Guobin carefully carried the stone box over.
Luo Feng did not pay attention to the stone box but asked, “Can this golden lock be opened?”

The difficulty lies in being careful and slow, so as not to damage the internal structure. If we didn’t have to protect the cultural relics, I could finish this in a minute!”
With that, he cautiously inserted the metal wire.
In about three to five minutes, with a twist and a click, the golden lock was opened.
“0Den it and see what’s inside. auicklv. Little Luo!” Gu Santonc urged
anxiously.
“Alright!”
Luo Feng nodded and proceeded to open the box.
Inside lay a piece of jade, quietly resting within the box. And this jade emitted a dense yellow hue.
It was approximately four inches in length and width.
On its surface were five entwined dragons.
This was the design of a jade seal.
“Little Luo, check the inscriptions on the bottom?” Master Gu knew that the key to identifying a jade seal lay in examining the inscriptions on the bottom, rather than the design.
“It seems to be Qin Dynasty small seal script?” Gu Santong recognized it at a glance.
“These characters… They should read…”
“Mandated by Heaven… Enjoying eternal prosperity??”
When Luo Feng read these eight characters out loud…
The entire livestream room and perhaps even the entire world were shocked…
