As A Trash Collector, I Collected A Imperial Jade Seal

208 A Dragon Robe! A Dragon Robe! The Internet Goes Wild Again! (3)

During the disarming of the landmines previously, Luo Feng had caught a glimpse of the hoe’s capabilities. It was a tool that would absolutely not let its master die.

If he were to climb 3 meters up, perhaps the tool would still allow Luo Feng to fall, because it knows that Luo Feng would not perish from such a fall, and as such, there was no need to protect him.

However, if Luo Feng were to climb over 100 meters above the ground, the hoe would undoubtedly be rock steady as a drop from such a height would be fatal.

“Damn, is someone calling me?” Luo Feng noticed his phone ringing and, with one hand gripping the Swallowtail Hoe, he pulled out his phone with the other hand.

!!

Is it a call from Qin Rubing?

Is it related to the auction today?

“Hey, Long-legged Woman? Are you not going to call me brother this time?” Luo Feng teased upon answering the call.

“Luo Feng, I heard you’re going mountain climbing. Are you climbing now? I can rent a helicopter for you!” As soon as Qin Rubing found out about his plans, she immediately called him, her voice filled with panic.

Climbing a peak over 200 meters tall?

Is he sure about this?

“Uh, have you been living in a rural area? I’m already halfway up!” Luo Feng said while gripping the phone with one hand.

“What? Are you crazy? Are you seriously sick?” She yelled at him, outraged. “And you’re answering calls while mountain climbing?”

“Wasn’t it you who called me? Otherwise, I would not have picked up!” Luo Feng retorted sarcastically.

“Ugh, you jerk! Be careful! If you run out of energy, just come back down!” Qin Rubing snapped before hanging up, not daring to disturb him any further. She picked up her phone and stared intently at Luo Feng’s live stream, not even daring to breathe heavily as if she would somehow blow him down.

The man was insane.

Previously, he had used his hoe to disable landmines, and now he was climbing up a mountain with it.

“Damn! People say that one’s strength fades as one climb higher, but Old Luo seems to get stronger the further he goes!” someone commented in the chat.

“Yeah, his movements are becoming more and more skilled!”

“Does this guy ever get tired?”

Luo Feng accelerated his pace, going faster and faster, becoming more fierce the higher he climbed. The livestream viewers were dumbfounded. In less than an hour, he had reached the top of the mountain.

As for those who wanted to rent a helicopter, they cursed in disbelief upon seeing Luo Feng having already reached the top.

“Hey, I don’t need the helicopter anymore! It’s useless now!”

“What? No refunds?”

“I didn’t even ride your helicopter! Why would I pay?”

“You’re only refunding half? That’s more like it! But make it cheaper next time!”

“No next time? Get lost! You’re so slow, you’ve cost me a fortune!”

“…..”

“The host is so cunning! He must have calculated the helicopter’s arrival time!”

“Yeah, the nearest aviation company would take an hour to get here, so he probably took this into account!”

“This streamer always rents helicopters for transportation, so he definitely knows the aviation company’s speed better than us!”

“What a waste of my tens of thousands of yuan! That mad lad actually made all the way up there!”

Many of the treasure hunters who were not short of money, had the thought that if Luo Feng were to fail his ascent, they would be able to strike a fortune. However, never in their wildest dreams had they expected Luo Feng to make his way to the top within an hour.

“I’ll chop!”

“I chop!”

“And I’ll chop again!”

After reaching a small platform at the peak, Luo Feng took out the Jungle Blade from his waist and began chopping away the overgrown vegetation and weeds blocking the entrance to the cave. In no time, he had cleared away the plants near the cave entrance.

“It took about 52 minutes to get up here, right?”

“That’s pretty fast! If I get another chance to climb, I’m sure I can shave off at least another 12 minutes!” Luo Feng mumbled before putting his phone back into his pocket and entering the cave.

Inside, the cave was refreshingly cool. It would be the perfect spot to escape the summer heat. The entrance was about 2 meters wide, and the cave was about 5 meters deep. The farther in he went, the lower the ceiling became.

“Everyone, this appears to be a naturally formed cave!” Luo Feng concluded. He reasoned that no one would bother carving a cave so high up the mountain, let alone during the rebel king’s escape. Additionally, there were no traces of man-made excavation on the cave walls.

“Ah? Is this all that’s in the cave?” the viewers commented. “The risk and reward are not proportional at all!”

Inside the cave, there were only a few scattered boxes. The number of boxes paled in comparison to what he found during his previous treasure hunts. Unfazed, Luo Feng sat down and casually opened a box beside him.

Upon lifting the lid, he noticed a layer of dust covering the contents. The box had not been buried, so no dirt had gotten inside, only dust. What he found inside was not silver ingots but something even better: various artifacts.

Luo Feng picked up an item, wiped off the dust, and revealed what looked like a bracelet made of polished agate beads. Even after many years, its luster remained clearly visible.

“Such a beautiful bracelet! Old Luo, you’ve struck it rich! Time for a giveaway!” a viewer exclaimed.

“Yes, it’s an agate bracelet,” Luo Feng confirmed, setting it aside. He brushed off the dust from the other items in the box, revealing more agate pieces, mostly bracelets and pendants. There was even a delicate agate teacup.

One by one, Luo Feng pulled out more astonishing agate items, such as a brush washer, a small bowl, and an incense burner. The viewers were amazed.

“Damn, they’re all made from agate? That’s crazy!”

“Could a box of government-issued silver be worth more than these?” one viewer asked.

Smiling, Luo Feng replied, “I haven’t opened the other boxes yet, so I don’t know. But this box alone is worth more than a box of government-issued silver for sure!”

He arranged the agate items in neat rows and said, “If I’m not mistaken, these items belonged to Prince Zhou Ding, the fifth son of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang.”

“Who is Prince Zhou Ding?”

“Is he from the Zhou Dynasty?”

“Guys, a little history knowledge would tell you that he’s the fifth son of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang!” another viewer chimed in.

...

Luo Feng explained, “Prince Zhou Ding was a very sensible and respected prince. Emperor Yongle, Zhu Di, treated him well and gave him many gifts, including a box of agate items. Prince Zhou Ding was the top connoisseur of agate at the time!”

He continued, “The agate items from his residence were known as ‘Zhou Wang Style’ ornaments. He would select the best pieces and send them to the palace. These agate items were probably looted by the rebel king when he captured the capital. Three of them are among Prince Zhou Ding’s favorite designs and are considered the ‘Three Excellences of Ming Dynasty Agate Artifacts.’”

After examining the items, Luo Feng put them back in the box and prepared to open another one. However, due to the poor angle and lighting, he had not noticed something else in the cave.

Upon moving his flashlight, to his surprise, he discovered two tiger skins on the wall, one large and one small, seemingly sewn together. He wondered if there was something hidden behind them.

“There must be something inside!” the viewers speculated.

“Whatever is sealed by tiger skins must be valuable!”

After carefully removing the tiger skins, Luo Feng felt a silky texture.

Is it clothing? What kind of garment could be so important that it was sealed with tiger skins? Could it be Emperor Li’s dragon robe?

As the king of all beasts, the tiger would only be a fitting cover for a dragon robe, right?
