Luo Feng knew that the Feng Shui here was of the highest quality amongst all the mountains. If the dragon vein had not been severed, this place was clearly where the dragon’s energy was gathered.

“Initiate level three scan!” he commanded.

He quietly waited for the scan to finish, taking in the view of the mountain peaks before him. Of the nine peaks, the collective formation had the best Feng Shui. However, if considered individually, the fourth was the finest.

“Over a hundred marked points? And they’re scattered?”

Seeing this, Luo Feng knew that such a situation did not indicate an ancient tomb. Could it be that the information from Kong Ming was wrong? Or perhaps Sima Yi favored a minimalist burial? After unearthing the treasures, most of them were medicinal herbs and a few scattered ancient relics. The few outstanding pieces, though valued at thousands, were nothing more than some bowls from the Ming or Qing dynasty.

“When will we find Sima Yi’s tomb, host?” a viewer asked.

“Exactly, we haven’t even seen a single tomb brick for days. This is so frustrating! ” complained another viewer.

At this point, Luo Feng was not concerned with preserving his dignity. He shook his head and confessed, “We really can’t find it this time!”

“What the hell? Does the host not have any leads?” one asked.

“Could it be that Zhuge Liang deceived us? Wasn’t it said that there’s an ancient tomb here?”

“What a waste of a trip. Zhuge Liang should compensate the host for the expenses!”

“You should go ask for compensation in the underworld!”

“Well, at least we got those stone nails and Thunder God columns, it’s not a wasted trip after all!”

“Anchor, why don’t you tell us what’s up with these ancient wells?”

Luo Feng smiled and replied, “Alright, I’ll explain the situation with the ancient wells. They’re likely constructed during the Hongwu period, just like the pavilions. When we first dug up the wells, I began to suspect that this was once an ancient village. But if we can’t find any village remnants, then it couldn’t have been wells dug by villagers.”

“However, when I saw the stone nails, I had a new theory. The existence of numerous pavilions and wells in such deep mountains and old forests is strange in itself, and they all bear dragon patterns. It’s like they were built by the imperial construction department back in the day, all pointing to the fact that this was an imperial act, possibly conducted by Zhu Yuanzhang.”

“And in Feng Shui, some people use stone nails to disrupt it, to bury gold and suppress royal energy. The principle is the same.”

“I had a good look at the entire range of mountains from the helicopter. There are dragon veins here, although not strong, they can still be considered as pseudo dragon veins.”

“The locations of these ancient wells and pavilions are all located at the junctions of the dragon veins.”

“Someone intentionally severed these dragon veins!”

Luo Feng revealed all he knew. Some understood, while others did not. But there was nothing more Luo Feng could do. He had already simplified it as much as possible.

“Severing dragon veins, is there such a thing?”

“It’s simple. Ancient emperors were afraid of rebellions, so they liked to do things like this!”

“Zhu Yuanzhang did this?”

“Did he come himself, or did he send someone?”

“He definitely sent someone. Did Zhu Yuanzhang have time to do such things?”

Luo Feng noted that some among the crowd were curious about who Zhu

Yuanzhang might have dispatched for such a mission, so he ventured, “During Zhu Yuanzhang’s reign, in the Hongwu era, dragon veins were severed. Can you guess who might have been responsible?”

“Could it have been Liu Bowen?” Qin Rubing posed the question almost immediately. She was quite knowledgeable about history.

“However, Luo Feng, isn’t all this based on folklore?” Su Meiji had also heard of the tale of Liu Bowen being tasked with severing the dragon veins, but she felt these stories were defamatory towards Zhu Yuanzhang.

“Folklore is such that we can neither dismiss it nor completely trust it. However, now that all the evidence points towards someone severing the dragon veins, we must reconsider the folklore!” Luo Feng retorted.

“Luo Feng, I recall you saying that severing dragon veins isn’t an easy task. It often involves leveling an entire mountain or drastically altering the landscape, doesn’t it?” Su Meiji, recalling Luo Feng’s past words, began to analyze the situation.

“Indeed. If we are dealing with real dragon veins, severing them indeed demands considerable effort and disruption of the existing grand layout. However, for pseudo dragon veins, I do not believe such measures are necessary!” Luo Feng explained.

“So if a dragon vein is excavated, does it become defunct?”

“Not necessarily. The Feng Shui of dragon veins is superb. Even if they are destroyed, they won’t worsen significantly. They simply will not be as potent as before. For example, a genuine dragon vein, if disturbed by mountain excavation, would become a pseudo dragon vein,” Luo Feng concluded.

At this point, Luo Feng suddenly thought of something and his eyes lit up.

“Yes, of course. Why would Liu Bowen bother severing a pseudo dragon vein? But what if this location was truly a dragon vein site? What we see now could simply be the altered layout, a layout severed and transformed into a pseudo dragon vein configuration. What if nothing has changed over these thousands of years and it’s actually a real dragon layout? Could it be possible that Liu Bowen had leveled an entire mountain?

“No wonder they say that this area, as Kong Ming claimed, originally had a thousand peaks. Prior to the Hongwu period, there indeed were a thousand, but now there are only 999!”

Previously, Luo Feng had hypothesized that the ancient people simply could not count properly. They had claimed a thousand peaks when there were clearly only 999. But it seemed the fault wasn’t with the ancients. Luo Feng himself was the one who had made a mistake.

With this realization, Luo Feng’s gaze swiftly moved to the fourth peak.

Severing dragon veins wasn’t as simple as leveling any mountain and then the dragon vein would disappear. To sever a dragon vein, one had to select a mountain where the dragon’s energy was concentrated.

And the place where the dragon’s energy concentrated was precisely here. The mountain that had been leveled should be nearby.

If there was another peak here, the current fifth peak would become the sixth. The fourth peak would then be the original fifth.

Because a mountain was missing, there was a slight discrepancy with Kong Ming’s records.

“Could Sima Yi’s tomb be on the fourth peak?”

This thought brought a rush of excitement to Luo Feng. If this were the case, many things would begin to make sense.

The Feng Shui of the neighboring peak was clearly superior. Sima Yi’s geomancy master must have been quite competent.

All frustration was wiped clean from Luo Feng’s heart, replaced with a burgeoning smile.

The three ladies by his side. seeing T 1110 Feng’s laughter. understood that the

truth was likely within grasp. They knew better than to ask questions and disrupt their man’s train of thought. Instead, they quietly waited.

“Activate a level five scan!”

Stationed at a high vantage point, Luo Feng initiated a wide-range scan that encompassed all the peaks in sight..
