113 King Xiang’s Secret Treasure, Treasure Map Fragment
“What’s wrong, Big Brother Chen? Is there a problem?”
Ye Feng saw that Chen Qiushan’s expression was a little off and quickly asked.
“Younger Brother Ye, this treasure map might have something… I’m not sure, give me a moment,” Chen Qiushan quickly replied.
He quickly pulled in a few more people and started a multi-person video call.
These people were not young, and each of them had the appearance of a sage.
Chen Qiushan only gave Ye Feng a brief introduction.
They were either the president of an antique association or the dean of an archeological research institute. Either way, they had a big title.
After the introduction, Chen Qiushan immediately started explaining to the few of them.
“Seniors, this little brother of mine has just obtained a sheepskin scroll. I’m not sure, so please help me take a look.”
And those few people also immediately took over the conversation. “Mr. Chen, you must be joking. You’re the general manager of the Sotheby’s Auction House. Do you think there’s anything you can’t be sure of?”
“That’s right. If even you can’t be sure, we old guys wouldn’t dare to embarrass ourselves.”
“I’m a little curious. What could it be? Even Brother Chen can’t be sure?”
Chen Qiushan immediately sent the picture of the sheepskin scroll to the group.
“Everyone, please take a look.”
Seeing this, the old men hurriedly put on their presbyopic glasses or magnifying glasses to study it carefully.
After a while, an old man with a head full of white hair was the first to exclaim.
“Could this be…”
“You also think so?”
“It seems that everyone thinks so.”
“That should be it…”
Ye Feng was even more confused as he listened to these old fellows speaking in riddles.
“What is it? Just say it!”
At this moment, an old man with white hair and a ruddy complexion slowly said, “If I’m not wrong, this should be the treasure map of King Xiang’s secret treasure.”
The others also nodded in agreement.
“That’s right, it’s the treasure map of King Xiang’s secret treasure.”
“I’ve seen one when I was young. I didn’t expect to see another one in my lifetime.”
“This thing… It’s a little strange!”
The more Ye Feng listened, the more confused he became, and he hurriedly interrupted them: “What is King Xiang’s secret treasure?”
Chen Qiushan explained on his behalf.
“According to the legend, when Xiang Yu conquered the world, he collected countless gold and silver treasures and hid them in a secret place.”
“Originally, he was prepared to use it to reorganize the economy and restore the people’s lives after he seized the world.”
“However, man proposes, god disposes. In the end, he committed suicide by committing suicide in the Wu River…”
When Ye Feng heard that the sheepskin scroll was related to Xiang Yu, he was dumbfounded.
The Great Conqueror Xiang Yu’s name was probably well-known to every Chinese person.
He didn’t expect that this thing would actually be related to him.
Chen Qiushan paused for a moment before he continued to explain.
“Back then, just in case, Xiang Yu drew a treasure map of this place and divided it into six parts. He gave them to his six confidants, but none of them knew about each other’s existence. With Xiang Yu’s death, these six people immediately scattered all over the world, and no one knows where the treasure was…”
When Ye Feng heard this, he lost all interest. “It has been over 2,000 years, I guess most of these six pieces of the treasure map have been completely destroyed?”
Chen Qiushan’s expression was also slightly serious.
“Although the treasure map of King Xiang’s secret treasure contains a great amount of wealth, it’s as difficult as ascending to the heavens to collect all six pieces of the map. It’s been more than 2,000 years, and no one has ever collected all six pieces.”
Ye Feng lost interest completely, and he was about to hang up the video call.
Chen Qiushan hesitated for a moment before he spoke again.
“According to the rules, I shouldn’t disclose the customer’s information, but Brother Ye is not an outsider, so I’ll disclose some information to you. Sotheby’s is holding a private auction, and all the participants are our Gold members. I wonder if you’re interested in attending?”
“I still have classes to attend, and I’m not a Gold member. I’m afraid it’s not very convenient for me to do so, right?” Ye Feng was not interested in this auction. He just wanted to find an excuse to get past it.
Chen Qiushan continued, “As far as I know, someone also sent a treasure map of King Xiang’s secret treasure during this auction…”
When Ye Feng heard this, his eyes lit up immediately. “Really?”
Chen Qiushan could not help but laugh. “Why would I lie to you?”
Ye Feng hesitated for a moment and immediately nodded in agreement. “Then I would like to go and see it.”
Chen Qiushan was overjoyed. “Welcome, welcome. I’ll send you the invitation later.”
Ye Feng chatted with him for a while more before hanging up the video call.
At the same time, a system notification sounded in his ear.
[Congratulations to the host for completing the treasure-hunting navigation! System reward: Perfect physique. The host’s physical fitness will reach the most perfect human level…]
The system’s voice ended.
Ye Feng only felt a vast energy surging out from his dantian.
It was like blowing a balloon, causing his entire body to swell up.
An indescribable pain spread to his brain, and he almost fainted.
Fortunately, he gritted his teeth and persevered.
This transformation lasted for more than half an hour before it ended.
Ye Feng’s entire body was exhausted. He lay on the ground and panted heavily.
There was a thick layer of black dirt on the surface of his skin, giving off a nauseating stench.
He resisted the urge to vomit and staggered into the bathroom.
After another half an hour, he finally washed away all the dirt on his body.
Then, he felt his entire body become much lighter.
Everything his eyes could see, his ears could hear, his nose could smell, and his body could feel was countless times more sensitive than usual.
It was as if a whole new world had been opened up.
Everything looked brand new.
