Chapter 448: 447. Did I hear it wrong?

"The stone wall says this is the tomb of a tribe leader named ’Ah Jia’."

"Ah Jia? Sounds like a woman’s name."

Tang Shu nodded, "It is a woman, Ah Jia means sister in Tibetan, this tribe must be one from the matrilineal society period."

"It’s actually a matrilineal society?!"

Professors Kong and Cao showed expressions of delight; this was indeed a pleasant surprise.

Once this was confirmed, it essentially confirmed the era in which the Ancient Tomb existed, given that the period of matrilineal society was rather short.

After they had browsed through the rooms in front of the tomb, they exited the burial site to meet up with everyone else.

And coincidentally, it started to rain at three o’clock in the afternoon.

"Really, it’s divine!"

The crowd looked at Da Wa with a touch of admiration, which made the person in question, quite embarrassed, grin widely.

"Folks here, we deal with the heavens all day, and can tell with a glance whether it’ll rain or not."

"Amazing, amazing!"

"My apologies, my apologies!"

"Da Wa brother is so divine!"

While everyone expressed their admiration, they were also grateful that the tents had already been set up, and all the archaeological instruments and equipment had been arranged and put away.

"Captain Yang, you’re back?"

"Mhm, everyone tidy up, we’ll have a meeting in half an hour."

"Alright, I’ll go inform everyone."

Upon hearing the order, everyone started doing their own thing, while Tang Shu walked straight to the women’s rest tent, pulled out a notebook, and began recalling the layout inside the tomb.

After pondering for a moment, she picked up a pen and started sketching.

Five minutes later, a complete and thorough map of the Ancient Tomb took shape.

Directions, spacing, every layout was summarized in detail.

"Is this... a map of the Ancient Tomb?"

Su Xiaochi had appeared beside her at some point, craning her neck to look.

"Mhm."

"Didn’t we each receive a map already?"

Yes, they had maps of the tomb’s construction, which the archaeological team had obtained from predecessors before coming.

Tang Shu shook her head, "It’s not comprehensive."

Each dynasty built their tombs with unique techniques, and some hidden mechanisms and secret passages could be very hard to detect.

"But this tomb is ancient, which would suggest that people back then weren’t all that smart, so the tomb shouldn’t be too complex."

Su Xiaochi thought this logic made sense, but she saw Tang Shu shake her head.

"What if they had a Great Shaman?"

"A what?"

She felt like she was hearing things.

Tang Shu explained seriously, "A Great Shaman, someone who is the vessel of the divine will, descending to the mortal realm to guide the ignorant masses forward."

"... You’re not telling me it’s the legendary Divine Witch?"

"Pretty much."

Tang Shu saw Su Xiaochi’s ’did I hear that wrong?’ expression and suddenly laughed.

To modern people, the further back in history, the harder it is to understand the life habits and local customs of people living at the time.

For her, however, there was "empathy," making it much easier to understand.

She and Damo also had the national teacher and the Imperial Astronomical Observatory; it was completely understandable.

"Here," Tang Shu handed over the freshly drawn map of the tomb, "This isn’t an ordinary tomb, the era might be ancient, but the tomb builders were profound."

Su Xiaochi held the square map, looking left and right with an ’are you seriously insulting my intelligence’ gaze at her.
