Tomb raiding: It all started with shocking the archaeological team.

Archaeologist Wang Haichuan has entered the live stream.

Current number of viewers watching the live stream: 1

As soon as the broadcast started, Chen Yibai saw a familiar face enter the live stream room instantly.

This is even more die-hard than a die-hard fan!

"Welcome Archaeology King to the live stream..."

After all, this was an expert who was helping him out. If it weren't for this expert, his Tomb Raider Talismans would probably have been unsold rather than sold out. So Chen Yibai immediately welcomed him loudly.

[Wang Haichuan (Archaeology King): My name is Wang Haichuan, not Archaeology King!]

Wang Haichuan immediately corrected him in the comments section.

If it were a month ago, Wang Haichuan could barely command the title of "King of Archaeology".

But it's not possible now. The thought of the two teams that lost contact in Qishan, and hearing Chen Yibai shout "King of Archaeology," fills me with deep shame and a sense of humiliation.

[Starting a live stream so early? Are you still making tomb raiding talismans today?]

[Does the streamer accept apprentices? I'd like to learn how to make tomb raiding talismans from you. We can connect via QQ.]

[Host, I'm a girl, just turned eighteen, and I'm good in bed. I'd also like to learn how to make tomb raiding talismans from you.]

Many more people joined the live stream, mostly die-hard fans. They immediately started discussing the Tomb Raider Talismans Chen Yibai made yesterday. He made five in three hours and easily sold them for nearly 50,000 yuan. This is an incredibly profitable industry, and the money is too easy to make. As a result, many fans asked Chen Yibai if he would take on apprentices.

But there are rules in the tomb raiding profession: it is passed down to men but not women. Have you ever heard of a female tomb raider since ancient times?

So don't even mention that you're a girl, I wouldn't accept you even if you were a female beast!

Looking at the fans' comments, Chen Yibai said in a serious tone, "I had something to do at noon and didn't prepare the materials. Those who want the Tomb Raider Talisman can wait until tonight! I'm not considering taking on any apprentices right now, but if you have any questions about feng shui, ancient tombs, or the I Ching, you can follow me and light up your fan icon to ask me directly."

At this point, Chen Yibai emphasized again in a serious tone: "Guys, we can discuss feng shui and ancient tomb knowledge, but we can't actually do it..."

[Did you hear that? The host is hinting that if anyone has timed it right but doesn't quite understand, they should ask us right away.]

[I think I get it now. This streamer is offering free lessons on feng shui and tomb raiding so he can sell his own tomb-raiding talismans!]

[The streamer's point is to revive the tomb raiding business so that tomb-raiding talismans can sell well!]

Some guy in the live stream with a vivid imagination said something like that, and it immediately started a wave of discussion.

[Sogasnai, brothers, hurry up and seize the opportunity! If you want to get rich by digging up ancient tombs, you can become a millionaire overnight.]

[Take a gamble and you might win big! Buy a tomb raiding talisman and learn how to rob tombs for free!]

Chen Yibai looked at the comments in the live stream and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. This generation of netizens really has a wild imagination.

I'm just sharing knowledge about ancient tombs, not teaching how to raid them.

It's fine to joke around for fun, but Chen Yibai is afraid that if jokes go too far, they'll become real.

Archaeologist Wang Haichuan lights up fan signs

[Archaeologist Wang Haichuan: Host, you said you know a bit about ancient tombs, do you know what my profile picture means?]

At this moment, Wang Haichuan asked a question, which sounded like he was testing Chen Yibai.

This is also the main reason why Wang Haichuan has been waiting for Chen Yibai to start broadcasting.

Wang Haichuan took a picture of a symbol carved into a cave from the photos sent by the archaeological team that had lost contact in Qishan, replaced it with his own portrait, and, hoping to give it a try, wanted Chen Yibai to see if he knew the origin and information of the symbol.

[Haha, an archaeology expert is testing the streamer! Grab a stool, this is going to be interesting.]

[What do you mean by testing? This is clearly exposing a fraud!]

[Host, you don't know this, do you? If you didn't, the Tomb Raider Talismans probably won't sell well!]

Chen Yibai glanced at the comments from netizens. If he could answer the questions raised by the archaeological experts correctly and gain their approval, it would undoubtedly be a great honor for him.

So Chen Yibai clicked on Wang Haichuan's profile picture again, zoomed in, and took a closer look.

This is a sun-like pattern with a circle in the middle and many lines representing sunlight around it. However, each line is irregularly curved, and some of them look like little people dancing in different poses.

Overall, the pattern looks like an abstract drawing on paper by a kindergarten child who has just learned to hold a pen.

[Haha... judging from the streamer's expression, he definitely doesn't know.]

[Don't be a coward, streamer! Even if you're just making it up, make one up and give the brothers a laugh.]

That will test the streamer's ability to talk nonsense.

The viewers in the live stream couldn't help but laugh when they saw Chen Yibai frowning, deep in thought, and not saying a word for a long time.

But then, Chen Yibai's thoughtful brows suddenly relaxed, and a smile appeared on his lips: "Sorry, guys, I actually know a little about this. If I'm not mistaken, this should be the worship totem of the Kang Dynasty, right?"

The Kangxi Dynasty?

I've never heard of this dynasty in history.

[I have a master's degree in history, and the host is starting to make things up. Ancient history, from the Xia and Shang dynasties to the Republic of China, including the vassal states, doesn't include a Kang Dynasty at all!]

I just love it when the streamer talks nonsense with a straight face.

[What's with all the fuss upstairs? Let's hear what the experts have to say.]

Wang Haichuan, an archaeologist with extensive knowledge and expertise in history, had indeed never heard of the 'Kang Dynasty'.

However, judging from Chen Yibai's confident tone, it was impossible to determine whether he was talking nonsense with a straight face.

So Wang Haichuan immediately started banging on the keyboard again and asked, "Host, can you be more specific?"

Be specific?

Seeing Wang Haichuan's question, Chen Yibai smiled and said, "Do you know why it's not in history books? Because it involves advanced knowledge, so if you want to hear the details, you have to pay extra! You can watch a Carnival and hear the host explain the Kangxi Dynasty in detail!"

A carnival gift costs three thousand yuan.

When Chen Yibai said he would only talk about the specifics after the carnival, the fans in the live stream couldn't sit still.

[What audacity! They even dared to scam experts!]

[Is this streamer desperate for gifts? Daring to ask the expert for gifts? The expert is testing you; don't you have any self-awareness?]

Only a dog would send you a carnival gift and listen to your nonsense!

As for Wang Haichuan, his face turned green as he looked at the comments from the viewers in the live stream.

Because he wasn't sure if Chen Yibai was talking nonsense, and because the matter was of great importance, Wang Haichuan originally wanted to just send a message.

But these onlookers are really good at stirring up trouble. What do you mean by "only a dog would spam Carnival"?

Don't drag me into your show-off act!

This put Wang Haichuan in a very awkward position.

I don't want to swipe it, but I really want to hear Chen Yibai explain it in detail.

If you do it, you'll lose face and be embarrassed.

So, should we listen or not?

To swipe or not to swipe?

Archaeologist Wang Haichuan gifted a carnival.

After hesitating for a moment, Wang Haichuan finally sent out a carnival.

The carnival-style special effects in the live stream reeked of money.

This has left many onlookers completely baffled.

But this was exactly what Chen Yibai had anticipated.

As the saying goes, "culture is priceless." Being able to hear a piece of history that is not found in history books at a carnival is definitely worth it.

"Thank you, Archaeology Expert Wang, for bringing us this carnival!"

Chen Yibai cleared his throat and deliberately shouted loudly in the live stream to slap the faces of those onlookers.

Without further ado, the Little Sunflower Classroom began.

Chen Yibai began to speak in a serious tone: "The Kang Dynasty was a vassal state during the Shang Dynasty, that is, a vassal state surrounding the Shang Dynasty. More accurately, it was a primitive clan tribe. It is said to be a descendant of the Tai Kang clan in ancient times. The clan tribe was relatively large and had basically a complete state system at that time."

"As is well known, primitive clans and tribes worshipped and believed in gods, and sacrificed to the heavens."

"It is said that the Taikang clan originally lived in the Taihang Mountains. In order to avoid various natural disasters, most of their ancestors lived in caves or dug out large caves to live in groups. Therefore, the Taikang clan had a special characteristic: they were extremely good at digging caves..."

Upon hearing this, Wang Haichuan, who was watching the live broadcast, suddenly widened his eyes and became so excited that he could hardly sit still.

"Skilled in excavating caves?" Doesn't that match perfectly with the cave tombs in Qishan?

Chen Yibai, after taking a few sips of soda and burping, continued in a serious tone: "As mentioned earlier, primitive clans and tribes worshipped gods. Because the ancestors of the Taikang clan lived in caves carved into the mountains, they revered the mountain god Zhulong. Their sacrificial culture was quite rich and cruel, mostly using living people as sacrifices. They would set up altars in the caves to pray for the mountain god's protection and peace."

"Let's get back to the Kangxi Dynasty."

"The Taikang clan gradually grew stronger and basically formed a state with a basic system during the Shang Dynasty. It became a vassal state of the Shang Dynasty. At that time, there was a king of this vassal state named 'King Kang', so this period was called the Kang Dynasty."

"As for why there are no related records in historical books, it's because the Kangxi Dynasty had a very short history. It didn't develop agriculture or fight wars. Guess what it was doing?"

"After King Kang ascended the throne, he did nothing but focus on one major task: to dedicate the entire nation's resources to building his own mausoleum!"

"But no one knows exactly where the mausoleum that King Kang built for himself with the resources of the entire nation is located."

"Next came all sorts of unorthodox methods and various versions of rumors..."

"The most widely circulated rumor is that King Kang, believing in divination and sacrifices, used the entire nation's resources to carve out an altar in a large mountain to communicate with the mountain god Zhulong, as his own tomb. He offered the nation's resources to Zhulong in the hope that he would be granted an immortal title after his death..."

"During the Kangxi Emperor's reign, the entire nation's resources were mobilized, and it took a full thirty-five years to complete the mausoleum."

"In the same year that the Kang King's tomb was completed, the entire Kang Dynasty vanished from the world overnight."

"Some say that the entire Kangxi Emperor was buried in the Kangxi Emperor's tomb. If the Kangxi Emperor's tomb can be found, the countless burial objects would be enough to make a country as rich as ten kingdoms."

"Some people say that the Taikang clan's human sacrifice was extremely cruel, so the Kangwang Tomb was also extremely dangerous, a death zone for all tomb raiders in the world."

"However, from ancient times to the present, not many people truly know the legend of the Kang King's Tomb."

"During the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Cao established the position of Tomb Raider Captain and spent more than ten years searching for the tomb of King Kang, but he still couldn't find it!"

"Therefore, the legend of the Kang King's Tomb is basically known only to the tomb raiders!"

"Don't ask me how I know."

"Because I am a tomb raider!"
