I Am Born With A Silver Spoon novel Chapter 571

“Stone tablets?”

“Yes, and pictures are carved on it. If I’m not mistaken, it records an incident that happened in that year. After that, I’ve carefully studied it for days, but other than understanding that it’s a mural which describes the burial scene of that year, I can’t understand the writings on it. After so many years, I’ve lost my curiosity toward what happened in the past, so I kept it as an ancient art piece and stored it in my secret room!” Master Ghost replied.

A mural again?

Whenever Chen Hao heard the word ‘mural’, he could not help but relate it to what he saw in the ancient tomb that day.

Ancient murals had been long-standing. They were closely related to the belief, custom and concept of aesthetic of the people in a particular era. In addition, they reflected the level of development in the politics, economy, literature, art and technology aspects of the society in that period.

Usually, these murals encompassed the stories from the imperial court to the martial society. It depicted scenes of vivid and accurate ancient life for the future generations, telling moving stories through this method.

Just like the ancient tomb of the God Knight, the murals had described in detail the interesting stories that happened since the day they found the God Knight until his burial.

Chen Hao even managed to unearth many clues regarding the League of the Sun from studying these murals.

“Once, I invited one of my old friends to study the burial method that is displayed on the murals, and he said that it was a special method of sea burial!” After pondering for a while, Master Ghost added.

“Sea burial?”

Chen Hao had an intuition. Could it be related to the Sea King’s Tomb?

“Is it convenient for me to have a look at it?”

“Of course. You’re welcome if you are interested!” Master Ghost made an inviting gesture.

He then led Chen Hao to a secret room where he meditated, located in the back courtyard at the back of the mountain.

The entire secret room was built using green granite, and it had a length of 50 feet and a width of 30 feet. There was nothing in this dark room. Only a square table was placed in the middle of this room. On the table, there was an oil lamp, and the small flame was flickering as it emitted faint light.

At the side of the secret room, there were 6 ancient stone tablets which were covered in traces of moss.

These were six murals.

Chen Hao took an oil lamp from Master Ghost and walked to the murals to have a closer look.

Upon detailed observation, Chen Hao realized that the writings on the murals were identical to those he saw in the ancient tomb.

It seemed like these murals and those in the ancient tomb were created in the same era.

When Chen Hao observed carefully, he was even more surprised to realize that this mural seemed to be the scene where the white-shirted girl was being buried!

His body tensed up at once and he inspected it carefully, afraid of missing even the tiniest detail.

In that era, Sea City was just a small fishing village. The people here earned their living through fishing, and they were secluded from the world.

According to the mural, a strange troop appeared in this place one morning.

They were carrying a huge coffin, and the head of the troop was an old man in a long robe.

This old man and the attire he wore were exactly the same as the old beggar in the mural of the ancient tomb, who reappeared in the country.

It was him again!

This mural was telling the story where the old man convoyed the white-shirted girl’s coffin to this place after he separated the white-shirted girl from the God Knight.

At this point, Chen Hao was sure that the white-shirted girl was inside the coffin, and this place was the actual whereabouts of the white-shirted girl.

The mural stated that on that day, the villagers of the fishing village had returned from sea, and they were astonished to see the old man carrying the coffin to this place.

The old patriarch of the fishing village stepped forward and inquired, “Who is inside the coffin?”

The old beggar answered, “A Goddess that fell from the sky!”

At once, all the villagers kowtowed to the coffin.

After that, the old patriarch asked again, “Why is the goddess being convoyed to this place?”

The old beggar replied that they needed to bury her in this place. Then, the old beggar gave a lot of gold and silver to the patriarch and asked him to mobilize the local farmers out to the sea to build an underwater mausoleum.

That time, every household was given a large heap of gold and silver.

Moreover, they were building this mausoleum for the Goddess, so everyone was burning with enthusiasm.

Even the commoners around the fishing village joined in.

In just a short time, 8000 old and young people were gathered.

All of them went out to sea to build a mausoleum for the Goddess.

The mausoleum was named Goddess Palace, not the present Sea Palace.

Under the direction of the old man, Goddess Palace was finally completed after half a year.

Everyone gasped in awe as this was a great project under the sea, and it was marvelous.
