“There are no steps leading down. It cannot possibly be an ancient tomb!”
Luo Feng spoke, “This is obviously just a regular well! ”
“A water well? Like the one in Zhao Gao’s tomb last time? Is it a death gate?” Li Shishi didn’t understand and spoke somewhat foolishly.
Luo Feng fondly tousled her long, soft hair, and said, “That shouldn’t be the case, but let me go down and take a look!”
The rest remained uncertain.
However, Luo Feng knew there were markers of treasure below, which meant that whatever was hidden below wouldn’t be straightforward to discover.
Swiftly, Luo Feng had ropes and oxygen tanks prepared.
Armed with his Swallowtail Hoe capable of avoiding death and prolonging life, as well as his Jungle Blade, he descended.
He slid down slowly, and Luo Feng estimated the well’s depth to be between thirteen to fifteen meters. He could already see the well’s bottom.
On the well’s walls, one could still see patches of moss, indicating it had been filled with water before.
Upon reaching the bottom, Luo Feng examined the stone bricks.
There was nothing peculiar.
However, after knocking on the stones, he realized.
The bottom of it was hollow.
“Luo Feng, is there an ancient tomb below? Be careful, there might be traps!”
Su Meiji, above the well, became aware of Luo Feng’s situation and cautioned him with concern.
Deep down, though she was not Luo Feng’s wife, she had accepted that she was his woman, for a lifetime.
A woman would never let her man be in danger.
If Luo Feng had not forbidden her, she would have accompanied him. “Is there a trap that could be fiercer than the one in Cao Cao’s tomb?”
Luo Feng responded with a laugh to the drone camera and quickly began prying open the floor tiles at the bottom of the well.
After prying open a few tiles, Luo Feng was taken aback.
There was a cylindrical object beneath them.
Standing tall under the tiles.
Luo Feng felt it — it was somewhat cold — but he could not determine the material of the cylinder yet.
Upon further inspection, it seemed to be a little over one meter.
Once he lifted it, the treasure marker disappeared. “What is this cylinder?”
“Does it look like a Sea Stabilizing Divine Needle?”
“Have you ever seen a Sea Stabilizing Divine Needle that is only a meter long?”
Luo Feng remained silent, taking the object back up and estimated its length to be 1.2 meters and weighed around twenty kilograms.
Its base was quite sharp.
It looked like an enlarged nail.
Only that it was made of stone.
And quite slender.
“A dragon relief carving? There’s another one?” Luo Feng was puzzled again.
The ancient well was worth 20 million yuan.
The stones at the mouth of the well were worth several million.
This enlarged stone nail from below was worth 17 million.
“This object is quite artistic, making such a sharp stone nail out of a stone?” Qin Rubng also marveled. This thing would fetch 20 million yuan at an auction.
“The Feng Shui of this area is excellent!”
Luo Feng declared again.
“Where is it good? Is there an ancient tomb below?”
Luo Feng looked at the surrounding landscape and said, “There are dozens of wind-collecting and Qi-gathering places nearby. It’s rare! In such a place, if a village resided here for a long time, it would soon produce high-ranking officials!”
At this point, Luo Feng looked at the well, “It’s just a pity, the position of the well is incorrect.”
“Why is it not right?” Qin Rubing queried in confusion.
“The presence of an ancient well is tantamount to directly severing the dragon vein, ” replied Luo Feng. “Moreover, judging from the surroundings of this well, it appears that this place had water before, which later dried up. Nevertheless, the Feng Shui of this place is still pretty good, albeit not as good as it once was.”
At Luo Feng’s explanation, everyone else was dumbfounded. They did not understand what he meant.
“Good grief, such excellent Feng Shui, destroyed by this well! Who did this?”
“The placement of the ancient well is neither here nor there, it must have been done deliberately,” one person speculated.
Luo Feng started pondering. The presence of the ancient well could have been coincidental, but the stone nail placed beneath it was certainly not an accident.
Who would place a stone nail beneath their well? The person who dug this well must have intended to disrupt the powerful Feng Shui of this location. The rationale was akin to the previous instances of burying gold to suppress the royal aura. Choosing a stone nail seemed to be a symbolic gesture to scatter the Feng Shui.
“Disrupting Feng Shui? During the Ming dynasty?”
“Liu Bowen?”
The name popped up in Luo Feng’s mind.
Why would Luo Feng think of this name?
“T Feng. who are von referring to?” asked Sil Meiii from the side. not having
caught the details. She only heard Luo Feng mutter three words.
“Someone deliberately designed this place. Let me guess who it was,” Luo Feng didn’t respond directly, instead deep in thought.
Luo Feng recalled that Liu Bowen was indeed commanded to do such a thing — severing the Dragon Veins of the world. The well cover was carved with a dragon, and so was the stone nail. Except for not being able to ascertain when exactly this well was from the Ming dynasty, everything else seemed to match.
“But while the Feng Shui here is good, it hasn’t reached the point of defying heaven, right?” Luo Feng questioned. Dragon Veins could be big or small. Although this place’s Feng Shui had a Dragon Vein, it lacked the strength to nurture a real dragon emperor. Why bother coming to such a place to deliberately sever the Dragon Vein? It seemed a bit of an overreaction.
Other than deliberately severing the Dragon Vein, Luo Feng couldn’t think of why anyone would do this. After all, choosing such an unlikely place for a well could hardly be a coincidence. Especially with the stone nail and many dragon patterns around. There were dragon patterns on the Lei Gong column, well cover, and stone nail.
“That’s right, the Thunder God column also has dragon patterns!” Luo Feng’s eyes lit up, nearly overlooking the Lei Gong column.
The specific period of those pavilions was during the Hongwu reign. Although it wasn’t certain which period the ancient well was from, it was likely from one person’s hand. Thus, this well should also be from the Hongwu period.
“I suspect that the intention of the people back then was not to sever the Dragon Vein of this place but of the entire Qianshan!” Luo Feng gradually started to see the answer in his mind.
If Liu Bowen was ordered to sever the Dragon Veins of the world, he wouldn’t just sever one place but the entire mountain. The locations of those pavilions were all at Feng Shui converging points. Although those dozen or so pavilions spread over several kilometers, it was just a part of Qianshan.
With many eyes around, Luo Feng did not intend to say much. After having the well cover and stone nail transported back, he began examining the topography and trends of the entire mountain using satellite maps. After examining the maps, Luo Feng pointed in a certain direction, “Pilot, let’s go to that place..”
