At the limits of science lies the supernatural; beneath every act of protection are the hearts of those involved.
Environmental engineering PhD Fang Henshao returns to his hometown of Yandan Village, bringing his father's cryptic last words and the most precise instruments available. Asia's largest residential community is rising here, while a thousand-year-old village is slowly being swallowed by the roar of the subway.
Using data models to interpret "earthly energy" and chemical formulas to analyze "burial toxins," he navigates a web of wealthy developers, experts, and hidden forces to provide a Warring States tomb, sleeping beneath the earth, with "end-of-life care" across the ages.
But when capital bares its fangs, when "rescue" becomes an excuse for destruction, and science faces the most primitive greed, he discovers that he is protecting more than artifacts impervious to time. He is also safeguarding the "Way" buried deep in the human heart, something that must not be allowed to disappear.
This is a tomb-raiding showdown without a Luoyang shovel, an extreme adventure that uses science to decipher mysteries thousands of years old. When the underground palace's defenses are accidentally activated and ancient wisdom collides with cutting-edge technology, who is the true "key" to this land?
A technically grounded suspense novel that shows how a science major uses science to "subdue a tomb."
