Synopsis

[Tomb Raiding] + [Antique Appraisal] + [Period Drama] + [Suspense and the Supernatural] + [Feng Shui Mysticism] Born in Suzhou and Hangzhou, buried on Beimang. Jin Village in Mengjin, Luoyang, western Henan, lies at the foot of Mangshan, where the imperial tombs of a thousand years gather. Since ancient times, it has been an unspoken hub for tomb raiders, with half the secret history of the Eastern Zhou royal tombs hidden underground. In the late 1980s, Jin Hai, a native of the village, was orphaned as a child and raised by his grandfather, once one of western Henan's top tomb raiders, who had endured years of hardship during the Cultural Revolution. His grandfather taught him the real skills of locating dragon veins, identifying burial sites, and distinguishing antiques. He also carved his grandfather's warning into his heart: never get involved in tomb raiding. But no one can dictate the course of fate. The day his grandfather died became a turning point in Jin Hai's life. For his livelihood, for the obsession he could not let go, and to uncover the secrets of Mangshan that his grandfather had guarded all his life, he finally broke the family rule. Taking Wang Ping, his childhood friend, along with him, he plunged into a life of hiding by day and venturing out by night, where death waited at every turn. The ancient tombs of Mangshan are full of deadly traps, while the underworld is rife with treachery and endless infighting. Two country brothers, armed with skills passed down through their family, begin with the ruined Eastern Zhou tomb beneath Jin Village. They brave sinister tombs, identify precious artifacts, battle evil spirits, and cross paths with black-market dealers. Every tomb raid means risking their lives for treasure, and every antique is tied to a long-buried blood feud. His grandfather's warning still rings in his ears, but now a blade is at his throat. Jin Hai has no choice but to walk this road of no return, and there is no turning back. Thus begins a tale of the underworld, told by a tomb raider from western Henan.

Tomb-Raiding Stories Are Getting Worse. Disagree? Let’s Discuss

With tomb-raiding books these days, if you’re going to insert yourself into the story, at least follow the timeline. There are no details at all, and it feels just like fighting monsters and leveling up, which makes it completely uninteresting. Did you skip the chaos at Crescent Hotel after the Lu Palace of the Seven Stars? It’s ridiculous. All current books are like this: they just skip straight over everything.
