    With a ng, Luo Feng began digging.


    [ Copper coins! ]


    [ Ming Dynasty! ]


    [ Value: 1200 yuan! ]


    As he unearthed the soil, he discovered about seven or eight copper tes. Upon closer inspection, he realized they were all Xuande Tongbao coins.


    “Goodness, you’ve found even more ancient coins! This must prove there’s an ancient tomb underneath, right!? There’s no way this is another sacrificial altar like what we found earlier, right?”


    “Thest dig site was also an ancient tomb, alright, albeit one formoners. Due to it being formoners, it’s only normal that there were no coffins to be found!”


    “Hahaha, you call that an ancient tomb? You must be kidding me!”


    Luo Feng continued digging, undeterred.


    [ Ding! You’ve discovered a corpse! ]


    [ Ming Dynasty! ]


    [ Value: 5800 yuan! ]


    Good heavens.


    Why was this corpse so expensive?


    Perhaps it was well preserved?


    Without giving it much thought, Luo Feng continued digging, uncovering more and more bodies as he did so.


    An hourter, Luo Feng and his party had unearthed thirteen more corpses, along with arge pile of copper coins and fragments of silver. These discoveries were strikingly simr to what they had found earlier.


    As they buried the bodies back, Luo Fengmented, “This ce indeed seems like a mass grave!”


    However, Luo Feng’s understanding was merely superficial. If they were to delve deeper into the matter, it would surely not be so simple.


    For now, Luo Feng did not want to think too much about it. If they continued digging in such a ce, they would only find more of the same items. The easiest way to avoid overthinking was to simply not think at all. Any problem could be resolved by simply brushing it off.


    After walking for a while, Luo Feng initiated another scan.


    Several minutester, Luo Feng’s expression turned serious as he saw a peculiar distribution of treasure markers. There were four concentrated treasure areas. The nearest one was just about a kilometer away from the mass grave they had just discovered. The other three were no more than l.x kilometers away.


    Without pondering further, Luo Feng headed toward the treasure markers.


    There were several possibilities for ancient mass burials.


    First, it could have been due to a gue. Different dynasties had different ways of handling such situations. Some were ruthless, sealing off the affected area and not allowing anyone to leave. Others were even more heartless, burning the victims alive. However, thetter was quite rare. Sealing off the area was the approach taken by most dynasties. The more brutal method was simply too horrifying.


    However, this ce was unlikely to be a gue burial site. After all, once people died, they should all be buried in the same location, why bother scattering their bodies about in various locations? Doing so would only cause more distress.


    Another possible exnation was that these were mass graves.


    Thirdly, these could have been family burial sites. The reason for this was that the graves here were devoid of coffins, likely indicating they were too poor to afford so, and as a result, were buried without one, directly in the ground.


    When one’s grandfather died, they would be buried here. Decadester, when the subsequent generations passed on, they too, would be buried in the same location. Generation after generation of family members would be buried in the same area together.


    This was simr to what had happened in many parts of China years ago, where an entire family would be buried on the same hillside.


    However, Luo Feng felt that this possibility was unlikely. Even if they were extremely poor, it seemed improbable that generation after generation of folks would be unable to afford coffins.


    The fourth possibility was that arge-scale war had taken ce here, and the dead were buried on the spot. But if there had been a war, would the soldiers of that time have left money for the deceased? After all, ancient soldiers were known to be in desperate need of money.


    “In the end, I think it must be a mass grave,” Luo Feng concluded.


    Ding!


    [ You’ve discovered copper coins, Ming Dynasty, value… ] It was another Xuande Tongbao, worth one thousand yuan.


    Soon after, another corpse was discovered.


    Luo Feng and his group were growing numb to it all.


    By 5 0’clock in the afternoon, they had excavated all four treasure locations. Without exception, they had found only corpses, scattered silver fragments, and copper coins.


    Altogether, they had uncovered more than 100 bodies.


    “Hey, host, did you stumble upon a chaotic burial ground? The scale of this mass grave seems ratherrge!” one of the viewersmented.


    “Hahaha,rge my foot! There are only about a dozen bodies in each location!” Luo Feng retorted.


    “The host is getting spoiled, huh? Nowadays, you don’t even want copper coins or silver anymore?” another viewer teased.


    “Even the rich second-generation heirs following you don’t bother picking them up anymore? Are you just going to leave them for the vigers?”


    “My goodness! Watching you waste all this valuable coins makes the instant noodles in my hand suddenly lose their appeal!”


    Luo Feng leaned against arge tree to rest for a while, instructing Li Shishi to help serve tea and massage his shoulders. He was the only one in the team enjoying such treatment, it was truly wonderful.


    Li Shishi was bing increasingly gentle, and the way she looked at Luo Feng was full of affection. Recently, she had sensed Luo Feng’s possessive gaze toward her.


    For a girl who liked him, this was undoubtedly a delight.


    “Let’s rest for now. We’re too tired today. We’ll continue tomorrow!” Luo Feng decided.


    He wanted to tell Li Shishi toe to his tent that night, but of course, he would not im her innocence there. Instead, he intended toy his cards on the table.


    Sighing, he thought about waiting until this adventure was over, finding a nice hotel, and being upfront with her. He was confident that she would ept him, even knowing that he would have other women in his life.


    After all, Li Shishi seemed to harbor no animosity toward Su Meiji and Qin Rubing. From this, it was clear that she was willing to be a second wife or concubine.


    Once she agreed, they could be intimate.


    The next day….
