The scene then shifted.

The man in the black robe was seen commanding a four-horse chariot in battle, leading his troops against the enemy. Under his command, the opposing forces fled, and he pursued them in his chariot.

In the next mural, another battle scene was depicted. In fact, the remaining dozen or so murals all portrayed battles.

The final mural was the one Luo Feng had initially seen: the man in the black robe sat on a dragon throne, gazing down at the people below.

Upon examining the entire series of murals, it was clear that the middle-aged man could only be one person if he had lived during the Qin Dynasty.

Indeed, he was none other than Emperor Qin Shi Huang. After all, who else in the Qin Dynasty could ride a four-horse chariot, command battles, have his subjects bow before him, and wear the Heavenly Crown? It could only be Qin Shi Huang.

If the murals did not depict battles, it could have been Emperor Qin Er Shi. However, since the murals included battles, it was unlikely to be him, as he had never fought in anv wars.

The murals essentially depicted Qin Shi Huang’s conquest of the six states and his subsequent reign over the world.

Luo Feng, filled with curiosity, glanced at the wall on the other side. However, the murals on this side underwent a sudden change in style.

The man in the black robe still appeared, now wearing a Heavenly Crown, dressed as an emperor. Beside him, a man who submitted to him and a crane were added to the scene.

In the next mural, the crane soared into the sky, and the man in the black robe stood on the clouds.

The other man knelt respectfully at his side.

Finally, the man sat beside a bronze tripod-like cauldron, with the crane standing next to him. From the cauldron, an elixir was produced, which the man offered to the man in the black robe. In the final scene, the black-robed man stood in the clouds, while the common people and courtiers all knelt below.

It became clear that the murals depicted Qin Shi Huang’s quest for an elixir of immortality.

“Qin Shi Huang’s obsession with immortality was quite extreme!” Su Meiji cleverly deduced the meaning without needing Luo Feng’s input. It was obvious that the murals were a depiction of Qin Shi Huang’s conquest of the six states.

Luo Feng doubted that there was anyone who could not understand this. Those who did not were clearly fools of the highest caliber.

However, much to his surprise, he was wrong.

In his livestream’s chat, some viewers asked about the meaning of the murals, and those who knew the story mocked them for their ignorance, not knowing about Qin Shi Huang’s quest for immortality.

“Hey, Old Zhou, what if we hypothesize that the discovered tomb is not the real tomb of Qin Shi Huang, and this is actually the true tomb?” At that moment, in the hall of a museum, a group of elderly men huddled around to watch the livestream.

After seeing the exquisite murals on both sides, one of the elderly men began to doubt his previous understanding of history. Because by all appearances, this seemed to be the tomb of Qin Shi Huang. But if that were the case, what was the tomb already discovered at Mount Li? Although the tomb at Mount Li had a lower standard compared to this one, the murals here indicated that the tomb’s owner was Qin Shi Huang.

In the livestream, many viewers also claimed that the tomb belonged to Qin Shi

Huang.

Guys, think back on the buried gold!”

“If this were the tomb of Qin Shi Huang, would he need to do this?”

“When it comes to kingly auras, it’s hard to find any emperor with a more dominating presence than Qin Shi Huang!”

“He’s the First Emperor, not just some random person!” Luo Feng shook his head, dismissing the idea that the tomb belonged to Qin Shi Huang. However, he was still puzzled as to why these murals depicted the events of Qin Shi Huang’s life.

“Since the murals don’t reveal the identity of the tomb owner, let’s go inside the burial chamber and see for ourselves! The tomb owner wouldn’t build such an elaborate tomb just to hide their identity at the very end, would they?” Su Meiji suggested.

She also did not believe that this was the true tomb of Qin Shi Huang. Unless the history she had learned was false or the experts had conspired in some elaborate hoax, the Terracotta Army must be real, right? The tomb of Qin Shi Huang, at most, remained unopened due to insufficient technology and fear of damaging the artifacts inside.

Of course, because the tomb of Qin Shi Huang had not been opened, many different stories circulated online.

However, most of them were pure fabrications. While the real reason for not opening the tomb might not be due to fear of damaging cultural relics, it was definitely not because of any supernatural reasons.

“Everyone, follow me! Once we enter the main burial chamber, be cautious! The tomb passage connects to a false tomb and is naturally a safe path, but entering the burial chamber may not be as safe!” Luo Feng called out to the wealthy followers behind him, leading them into the burial chamber.

Despite the presence of a stone door, with so many people pushing together, it was easily opened. Upon entering the burial chamber, they found it to be circular, with three doors directly in front of them: one large golden door and two smaller ones. Luo Feng chose to enter through the smaller door on the right.

After entering, they discovered that the burial chamber was quite large, being approximately five to six hundred square meters in size. The chamber was filled with neatly arranged wooden coffins, nearly a hundred of them. Apart from the coffins, there were no other objects in the room.

“What the hell?! ”

“What’s going on?”

Whether it was Su Meiji, Li Shishi, or the wealthy heirs, all of them were frightened by the sight before them.

Li Shishi hid behind Luo Feng, trembling. The thought of a hundred coffins was terrifying enough, but to see them all in person was even more horrifying..
