Theme: Tomb robbing adventure + suspense and thriller + history and culture
Liu Minghao, a graduate student majoring in archeology, discovered a mysterious "Notes on Tomb Search" while sorting out his grandfather's belongings. The notes recorded the seventy-two ancient tombs that my grandfather visited throughout his life. Each tomb contained a piece of jade engraved with ancient characters. These jade pieces point to a shocking secret. According to legend, the Jiuzhou tripod cast by Dayu was not destroyed in the war, but was instead hidden in nine dragon vein tombs by emperors of the past dynasties.
Instigated by his friend "Fat Man" Wang Debao, Liu Minghao followed the instructions in his notes and entered the first ancient tomb - the Han Tomb at Shizishan Mountain in Xuzhou. There, they encountered the "Chilong" guarding the tomb and the strange "Jade Warriors Army Formation". Fortunately, the mysterious woman Lan Yuling came to rescue them. Lan Yuling claims to be a descendant of "Mo Zhe" and has guarded the secret of Jiuzhou Ding for generations.
The three formed an expedition team and embarked on a journey to find the Kyushu Cauldron. From the Han Tombs in Xuzhou to the Underground Palace of the First Emperor of Qin, from the Zhenling Tombs of the Tang Dynasty to the Western Xia Royal Tombs, from the secret burial of Genghis Khan to the Xuan Palace of Xiaoling Mausoleum of the Ming Dynasty, every tomb hides murderous intent, and every exploration uncovers the fog of history.
At the same time, the international cultural relics smuggling organization "Blackwater Company" is also frantically pursuing the whereabouts of the Kyushu Tripod. A battle for China's fate is quietly unfolding in the underground world.
