"There's a lot of junk in this Ancient Tomb. It all looks rotten, and who knows what it used to be? I've never seen most of it before."
"It must have been too long, and so much of the stuff here has fallen apart. What a shame. This Ancient Tomb is enormous. Anyone who could build a tomb this large was definitely no ordinary person."
"Let's search more carefully. With an Ancient Tomb this big, I refuse to believe there's nothing good in it. Even gold or silver would do. At least we'd get something out of it."
"Quick, quick! Look at that coffin! There seems to be something growing on it. It must be a natural treasure."
An herb that filled people with dread just by looking at it was certainly no ordinary thing. The three of them hurriedly picked it with great care and placed it in a jade box.
Then they continued searching. After the time it took to drink a cup of tea, they found another good item: a pale purple mirror. They had no idea what material it was made from, but looking at it gave them the strange impression that it was alive.
This was definitely something good too. They quickly put it away.
They continued searching and found some ores and similar things. These looked rather unremarkable and even gave off a sense of
decay, yet they were still hard. The three took those along too.
They encountered some traps and mechanisms along the way; fortunately, they were careful, and the truly dangerous things in this ancient tomb
had long since stopped working. Only thanks to that were they able to emerge safely.
The moment they left the Ancient Tomb, the three went to Qin Dongcheng and gave him everything they had found.
