Decades ago, Yao Wenzhong, a poor young man from Chifeng, encountered an old man watching the stars in the mountains. From that moment on, he stepped into an underworld few knew existed.
From a farm boy who wove bamboo baskets and carried bricks, he gradually became the renowned “Master Yao” of the Northern School of tomb raiders. His eyes could read mountains, waters, and constellations, and his mastery of celestial feng shui was unmatched.
Over the course of thirty years, he traveled across the grasslands of Inner Mongolia, the mountains of Hebei, the plains of Shandong, and the loess lands of Henan. He witnessed the grandeur of thousand-year-old tombs, endured trials of brotherhood, and saw the rise and fall of an era's black market in cultural relics.
This is a story of inheritance, choices, and fate. It follows an elementary school graduate who, in a turbulent era, used extraordinary talent and courage to forge an uncommon path.
Come explore an underworld you never knew existed.
It feels very good, the logic is tight and the narrative is smooth.
