Searching for Tombs Along the Luo River

Luoyang, 1991. Wei Xun, an heir to the Northern School, has just buried his martial uncle and is left with only three hundred yuan and a pile of debt. His father, Wei Laogui, was a top Northern School expert who perished in a Han dynasty tomb eight years ago. The cause of his death remains a mystery. A jar of Eastern Han pottery exposes a traitor, while a copper tobacco pipe reveals the secret network Wei Xun's father set up before his death. Gathering a crew of five, Wei Xun begins with an Eastern Han tomb guarded by a White Fiend and follows the clues his father left behind, digging deeper at every turn. Shamanic talismans, the Three-in-One Array Key, and sealed artifacts from the Warring States period all point to the same tomb. And the man surnamed Chen pulling the strings has waited 1,900 years. All he needs now is the last key in Wei Xun's possession. Keeping national treasures within our borders is the rule my father gave his life to uphold.
