When the cold Luoyang shovel penetrated the rift in time and space, the modern tomb robber Chen Mo found himself standing on the ancient battlefield of the late Eastern Han Dynasty - the broken sword and broken halberd were submerged into the loess, and the shouts of Cao Cao's army came from the distant beacon smoke. The alloy probe, night vision device and GPS locator in his backpack have become the most bizarre "artifacts" in this era when Cao Cao, the founder of tomb robbers, is rampant.
In order to survive in troubled times, Chen Mo had to go back to his old business: using geological radar to detect the ancient tombs in Mangshan, relying on chemical reagents to identify the age of bronzes, and even using directional blasting technology to blast open the Han Dynasty Huang Chang Ti Cou. But he soon discovered that the tombs of the Three Kingdoms were far more dangerous than recorded in the history books - there were a series of flaps designed by Ma Jun, the master of mechanical arts, there were witchcraft curses left by the Yellow Turban Army, and there were also "secrets of finding gold" that had been covered up by history: It is said that the "Seventy-two Doubt Tombs" that Cao Cao robbed to raise military pay actually contained secret bronze scrolls that could rewrite the pattern of the Three Kingdoms.
When he used modern technology to open the main tomb of Yuan Shao's family, he bumped into Guo Jia, a young man who came to "inspect"; while surveying the Changbanpo site, he was accidentally involved in the chaos of Zhao Yun's savior. The most dangerous thing is that his tomb robbing behavior alarmed the "grandfather of tomb robbing" - Cao Cao, who held the emperor hostage to order the princes. A modern man holding a Luoyang shovel and a treacherous hero in troubled times will start an intellectual duel that spans thousands of years deep in the ancient tomb.
"What this shovel is digging is not a tomb, but the fate of the Three Kingdoms." When Chen Mo wrote this sentence on his yellowed notebook, he didn't know that he was about to reveal a shocking secret about the dragon veins of the Han Dynasty...
