Netizens watched the scene before them with growing excitement.
"Holy crap, yellow and white objects, gold and silver treasures, my eyes are practically blinding! Is this real gold and silver? Damn, seeing these treasures in this lifetime is worth it."
"Wow, I've only seen this on TV, but those were all fake, props or props. What I'm seeing now is real, all real."
"This is just a small portion, right? An emperor of all ages wouldn't just have this much? Is there a possibility there's more? Look at those luminous pearls, just the luminous pearls fill five large chests? Each one is as big as a fist."
"Holy shit, I've lived this long and this is the first time I've seen such treasures. I'll be damned if I can earn even one of these in a lifetime of hard work."
"Damn, this is absolutely incredible. Not only can I not afford to look at this stuff, I wouldn't even dare to dream about it."
...
The dean and the other professors looked at the scene before them with surprise.
"Are these all from Ancestral Dragon? If so, our nation's strength will surely increase significantly."
One professor quickly said.
Another nodded excitedly but couldn't speak. This was truly invaluable.
Everyone in the conference room stared at the large screen, unable to contain their excitement.
If all of this could be brought back, it would greatly enrich China's historical artifacts, saving them from the ridicule of overseas countries. The thought alone made them angry.
The dean's gaze remained fixed on these treasures, especially the bamboo slips on the chests. Perhaps there were paintings on them.
...
At this moment, Zhou Lin merely glanced indifferently, showing no particular emotion.
This puzzled Elder Tang, who had been moved by the sight.
Zhou Lin was known to be fond of money, so his calm demeanor in the face of such a mountain of gold and silver was strange.
Wolf King also felt a pull towards these items, but Zhou Lin's reaction was abnormal.
In his mind, seeing such a scene would prompt one to rush forward and cling to a chest of treasures, refusing to let go.
But this was truly...
Very abnormal.
"Mr. Zhou Lin, this is money, aren't you tempted?"
The Taoist priest beside him asked, full of curiosity at Zhou Lin's composure.
"It's not mine, why should I be tempted?"
Zhou Lin replied coldly, turning his side glance at the Taoist priest, his words righteous.
Hearing this, the Taoist priest instantly felt it made perfect sense.
Was this the legendary gentleman who loved wealth but obtained it righteously?
Elder Tang felt much more at ease seeing Zhou Lin's principles. He was a man who earned his money with integrity, which was good.
"Besides, this isn't real. If I took it, it would be useless and just a hassle to throw away later."
Zhou Lin's next words startled them. Elder Tang, Professor Lin, and the others looked at the jewelry with surprise.
Elder Tang was the first to step forward and pick up a piece of gold, examining it closely. It had a substantial weight, and by all appearances, it was real.
Professor Lin and the other professors behind him also felt it was real. The students and participants nervously watched the jewelry.
It was indeed real.
The netizens also quickly examined it, but the luster showed no signs of being fake.
"We're too far away to tell anything for sure. I don't know if it's real."
"I'm a jewelry appraiser. Judging by the luster, it's not fake. Moreover, in that era, while there might have been differences in quality, there wouldn't have been counterfeits. They didn't have the equipment for that."
"So it's real? Why did the great master say it was fake?"
"Perhaps the great master is skilled in Taoist arts but doesn't understand jewelry well, so he thinks it's fake."
"That makes sense. The great master also mentioned before that he lived a very frugal life, so it's normal not to recognize these things."
...
Inside the tomb.
As Elder Tang was examining the gold, he suddenly saw a pair of eyes emerge from the gold in his hand.
They looked at him with intense hatred.
"Ah..."
Elder Tang screamed in shock at the sight, instinctively dropping what he was holding.
His face instantly turned pale.
"Elder Tang? What's wrong? Why are you screaming? Why is your face so pale?"
Professor Lin asked, confused.
"This gold has a problem."
Elder Tang said, still shaken, pointing a trembling finger at the gold.
Professor Lin quickly picked up the gold from the ground, but saw nothing unusual.
He looked at Elder Tang with confusion and handed the gold back.
"Elder Tang, you must have seen wrong. How could this gold have a problem?"
Elder Tang took the gold again and looked at it closely. Indeed, the eyes he had seen before were gone. He breathed a sigh of relief.
Was he just seeing things due to being startled?
Just as Elder Tang was lost in his confusion, he then heard panicked screams from the scholars and participants nearby.
Everyone turned towards the sound, seeing the students who had seen the gold now staring nervously at the gold on the ground.
"Professor... there are eyes on the gold."
One student said in terror.
The students who had seen the eyes nodded repeatedly, their gazes fixed on the gold with fear. The thought of what they had just seen made their legs feel weak.
The scene was beyond mere terror.
"Eyes?"
The security personnel approached suspiciously after witnessing the scene.
Wolf King and the gymnastics champion behind them also moved closer with curiosity.
Just as everyone was staring at the gold, a pair of strange, resentful eyes flashed by.
"Ah..."
"Holy shit..."
Wolf King and the gymnastics champion were also greatly startled by what they saw.
Everyone present felt a chill run down their spines, their hairs standing on end.
In the live broadcast room.
"Holy crap, that scared me to death! I was just looking at the gold, and suddenly a pair of eyes popped out. I was so terrified, this is too scary!"
"No, isn't this gold? How can it have eyes? What's going on?"
"Damn, I was thinking this gold would fetch a good price, but now I see it. Who would dare to hold onto this?"
