The Civilization of Lijiabao? I Said It Offhandedly, and the Archaeology World Exploded

Lu Chengxin transmigrated and became bound to an “Omniscient System.” When he went on the variety show Million Dollar Winner, the answers the System gave him grew more outrageous by the minute: “Did humanity’s earliest civilization originate in Lijiabao?” “Is the world’s deepest cave a subway line’s ventilation shaft?” “Are there 129 elements on the periodic table?” The whole internet cracked up. Comments flooded the screen: “This idiot’s gone nuts!” The production team stayed up all night editing a public-service special called Caring for the Mentally Ill. Then the next day, the commander of the Huanglong Military Region kicked open the studio doors and threw an arm around his shoulders. “You little rascal! Even I only have Level Three access to Lijiabao’s classified files. How do you know about them?” A leading archaeologist snapped his pen in half. The entire geological institute went into lockdown, and the High-Energy Administration went straight to Level One Alert. Lu Chengxin: “??? I was just reading what the System told me!” Later, academicians worked themselves bald verifying his formulas, a sixth-generation fighter took to the skies fifty years ahead of schedule thanks to his model, and he pinpointed a breakthrough in targeted drugs with a single remark. The whole internet fell to its knees: “So we were the idiots all along?” [System + national fortune + behind-the-scenes mastermind + internet-wide shock]
