After Reincarnation, I Became a God by Plundering --- Chapter 18: Legends of the Four Great Ancient Tombs (1)

In my previous life, folklore passed down that China had four great ancient tombs, all containing countless rare treasures, yet none were ever obtained. They were the Qin Emperor's tomb, which dared not be opened; Empress Wu's tomb, which could not be opened; the Yuan Ancestor's tomb, which could not be found; and the underwater tomb of wealth. And Shen Fu, Shen Wansan, was precisely in the underwater tomb of wealth. Legend has it that before being exiled, Shen Wansan squandered his fortune and, to prevent future generations from disturbing him, specially built an underwater tomb as his eternal resting place. Of course, his most precious items were buried with him, sleeping there, but no one knew where, as Shen Wansan's rise to fortune was in Jiangnan. Jiangnan had everything, especially water. Zhu Yuanzhang, in his pursuit of the treasure trove, never gave up searching until his death, yet still couldn't find the location of Shen Wansan's tomb. Even Shen Wansan's descendants didn't know his resting place, only that it was underwater. Coupled with the existence of treasures rivaling a nation's wealth, it was listed as one of the Four Great Ancient Tombs. And behind the stone door before me might very well be Shen Wansan's tomb. With the craftsmanship of the early Ming Dynasty, how did he manage to build his tomb underwater while ensuring the area near the tomb door remained completely dry? With caution mixed with curiosity, I squeezed through the gap in the door. The interior was not dark; a watery blue luminescence flowed, and the tomb passage was carved with many relief sculptures. Clearly depicting the events of Shen Wansan's life. At a fork in the road, the last relief showed a king-like figure with a greedy expression, attempting to attack a fallen man. I knew this depicted Zhu Yuanzhang's covetousness for Shen Wansan's wealth and treasures. A truly vivid and lifelike carving.
