Chapter 220 - Chapter 220: Chapter 172: Why is it exactly the same as described in the novel? (5000-word chapter) (2/2)

Qin Sisi took a deep breath and said, “I’m not expressing my own views; these are someone else’s. According to him, the first part has the same meaning that Professor Qi explained.”

“And the second part?”

Professor Qi couldn’t help but ask further.

“The second part…”

Qin Sisi paused, looking at Professor Qi: “Professor Qi, he said, ‘Seek the dragon, divide the gold, observing the entwining mountains, each layer of entwining signifies a barrier’ is not only about the structural layout of the tomb, it also relates to Feng Shui. You could consider the heavens and earth as a great tomb chamber, with layers upon layers of mountains and ranges being the barriers wrapping around the main tomb. If one can comprehend this point, it would be the beginning of understanding geomancy.”

Professor Qi’s expression changed, his thoughts racing rapidly.

Comprehending this point is the beginning of understanding geomancy?

Does this mean I still haven’t begun to understand?

What kind of nonsense is this?

Well, what he said does make some sense.

The heavens and the earth as a great tomb, with mountains and earth’s veins winding closely around.

Sss—

Professor Qi looked out of the window, his mind suddenly filled with flashes of insight.

Old Yao, however, looked at Qin Sisi and quietly asked, “Did you also read this in a novel?”

Qin Sisi nodded.

“Who’s the author of the novel?” Old Yao pursued.

“Lin Chuan, he released a new book a couple of days ago,” Qin Sisi replied.

“Lin Chuan…”

Old Yao murmured and then sighed, “It’s just a shame we’re on an archaeological mission right now. In these deep mountains and old forests, there’s no signal, otherwise, I could have taken a look at what novel he wrote.”

“There’s no rush to look at it once the archaeological mission is completed,” Qin Sisi smiled.

“Right, right, right,” Old Yao said three ‘rights’ in a row, clearly expectant in his heart.

And the expectation was strong.

Whether it was the earlier ‘Dragon-Seeking and Positioning,’ ‘Art of Soil Sniffing,’ ‘Double Finger Probe,’ or the explanation of ‘The Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Fengshui Secret Tome,’ ‘The Great Tomb of the Earth’ that Qin Sisi had just relayed, all of it made him bright-eyed as if he had opened the door to a new world.

This would undoubtedly be a huge boost to archaeology!

Old Yao silently made a plan in his mind.

After completing the mission, not only did he plan to read Lin Chuan’s novel but also to pay a visit in person to this master-level individual to learn from his wisdom.

The archaeology team’s off-road vehicles traveled through the Taiyi Mountain Range.

The glaring sunlight fell into the dense forest and through the gaps, it sprinkled on the ground, creating a mottled pattern of light and shadow.

Amid the interplay of light and dark, from deep within the Taiyi Mountain Range, different cries of birds and beasts could be heard.

Occasionally, a few wild martens would dash out, and even one or two wild pythons could be seen coiled up, basking in the warm sun.

At this point.

The off-road vehicles could no longer proceed.

The team had to pick a good spot to park the vehicles, then unload their luggage and equipment, and continue on foot.
