Was it really Yuan Chonghuan's tomb?
Chen Feng's pupils instantly constricted when he heard the old man's words.
Originally, he thought that this was just his guess. However, he never expected that the general's tomb here was actually Yuan Chonghuan's.
However, even if it was Yuan Chonghuan's, how could there be no burial items?
At the thought of this, Chen Feng revealed a puzzled expression again. At the same time, after seeing his expression, the old man let out a bitter laugh and explained,"Young man, you should have heard of it. Although General Yuan had abandoned his pen and joined the army, he had been a civil official fighting in the past. However, General Yuan was a brave warrior and was good at leading troops. Therefore, General Yuan was indeed a pillar of the country.”
That's right!
Chen Feng had the knowledge transmitted by the system, so he knew this very well.
Although Yuan Chonghuan was a civil official who had abandoned his pen and joined the army. However, he was indeed brave and good at fighting, and he was also good at using the art of war. For more than ten years, the Qing court's Eight Banners Army could only look at the mountain and hate him.
Back then, when he was guarding Shanhai Pass, Nurhachi led 70,000 troops and could not take it down.
However, Yuan Chonghuan also had many flaws.
For example, killing the island commander Mao Wenlong, negotiating peace with the Qing court, buying rice to supply the enemy, etc.
It was also because of these crimes that he was impeached and killed by Wei Zhongxian's henchmen for three major crimes.
However, what did this have to do with the fact that there were no treasures in his tomb?
Moreover, Chen Feng also remembered that his corpse had been buried in the capital after he was rehabilitated.
However, at this moment, the old man shook his head and said,"Youngster, you know, it's all nonsense from the emperor's daily notes. Yes, General Yuan was guilty of killing meritorious officials, but he had never bought rice to support the enemy, nor had he surrendered to the Qing court.”
"Back then, when General Yuan was guarding Shanhai Pass, he was able to hold off ten thousand men by himself. Nurhachi had been unable to take it down for a long time, which was why he had slandered General Yuan in the Imperial Court for colluding with the enemy. Emperor Chongzhen thought that he was supporting the army and betraying the country, so he listed 17 crimes and sentenced him to death.”
"When General Yuan died, the commoners ate his flesh. In the end, all that was left of the general was his head. Even his flesh was eaten by steamed buns stained with human blood.”
Chen Feng nodded when he heard this.
He knew about this period of history. According to historical records, when Yuan Chonghuan was dismembered, it was indeed a deserted street. The commoners ate his flesh raw.
Just because the people thought that he had betrayed the country, a piece of his flesh was cut off and taken away.
Yuan Chonghuan's death was indeed unjust…
However, Chen Feng really did not expect that history would be smeared by someone.
At the same time, the old man finally gave Chen Feng an answer.
His expression changed." After that, General Yuan's body was stolen by a subordinate surnamed Yu overnight. He did not dare to stay in the capital and returned to his hometown in Sichuan and Shaanxi." Later, when General Yuan was buried, it suddenly snowed in June. Only then did the subordinate know that he had died unjustly.”
At this point, the old man looked into Chen Feng's eyes and said word by word,"Now, you say it yourself. General Yuan only has one head left to be buried. What other funerary objects can there be in his grave?”
"It's also for this reason that your old man didn't do anything to this tomb. If you were still a loyal and filial son, would you be able to lay your hands on this tomb?”
This was…
Chen Feng was speechless.
He finally understood why his grandfather had not made a move on this tomb for decades.
So this was actually Yuan Chonghuan's tomb!
Furthermore, with Yuan Chonghuan's situation at that time, it was indeed impossible for there to be any valuable underworld artifacts in the tomb.
But how did this old man know all of this?
Wait a minute...
Thinking of this, Chen Feng saw the memorial tablet behind him. At this moment, Chen Feng understood.
It seemed that this old man was the descendant of that old subordinate. Their ancestors had lived here for generations to guard Yuan Chonghuan's tomb.
"Young man, if there's nothing else, go down the mountain as soon as possible. There's something in the mountains. If you leave late, you might not live long.”
At this moment, the old man suddenly spoke again.
At the same time, he was still urging Chen Feng to go down the mountain. Upon hearing this, Chen Feng knew that he could not ask any more questions, so he stood up and left.
"Old Master Yu, I'll be going down the mountain then.”
As he spoke, Chen Feng turned around and left the thatched cottage. As he watched Chen Feng leave, the old man began to mutter something.
If Chen Feng turned around to look, he might be able to see that there seemed to be two sets of teeth in his mouth.
However, Chen Feng did not have the chance to see it.
Because he was not used to this gloomy thatched cottage. As soon as he walked out, Chen Feng felt much better.
Therefore, he didn't want to stay any longer and quickened his pace down the mountain.
However, when he left the thatched cottage far away and walked down the slope, Chen Feng felt that something was wrong.
Nothing else!
The old man told him that there were no burial items in this tomb. However, why were they urging him to hurry down the mountain and telling him not to have any ideas about the tomb?
More importantly, he had repeatedly said that there was something in the mountains and that it was very dangerous!
Regardless of what it was that could threaten him…
If it was very dangerous, why would the old man let him go down the mountain overnight?
Wasn't this sending him to his death?
If this old man really cared about him, he wouldn't have chased him away overnight.
So, that old man was lying?
At the thought of this, Chen Feng felt that this was even more possible.
He felt that Yuan Chonghuan's tomb was definitely not that simple. That old man did not tell him everything. Otherwise, his words would not be full of loopholes.
However, where did the problem lie?
At the thought of this, Chen Feng still felt that he could only understand the truth if he found the tomb.
As for how to find the tomb…
That's right!
Just as he thought of this, Chen Feng suddenly remembered that the most important skill in the Dragon Seeking Art was to observe the stars and not Feng Shui.
There were no stars in the day, so he could only calculate the pattern of the Yellow River.
It was nighttime now, so he could give it a try!
If the astrology near the Yellow River was auspicious, then there would definitely be a shocking tomb here!
Thinking of this, Chen Feng found an empty spot on the slope so that he could look up at the night star. However, when Chen Feng saw the arrangement of the stars in the sky, he suddenly cried out in surprise.
"The moon is hanging in the sky…Three-star charging fiend?"
