Rebirth: Living in Wilderness with My Superpower-Chapter 589: Father’s Grave

The crowd carried numerous incense candles and oil paper towards the Famous Scholar Mountain of legends.

However, the Famous Scholar Mountain was ten miles west of the Imperial Capital, and Bai Junjun still had to report to Prince Hanying in order to go there.

Luckily for her, Prince Hanying had left a few guards around her to monitor.

So Bai Junjun simply talked to the guards about the upcoming itinerary.

Thus, while she was buying the incense and candles, a guard rushed back to report to his prince.

By the time Bai Junjun came out with the incense and candles, the horse carriage team prepared by Prince Hanying for the trip to Famous Scholar Mountain had also arrived.

Since they had readymade transport and guides, Bai Junjun was only too happy to hop onto the horse carriage without a word.

The procession set off in a great commotion.

About half an hour later, they arrived at Famous Scholar Mountain.

It was a rather low mountain, but very long, and it lay like a slender oval upon the plain.

In a region mostly comprised of plains, having such a mountain was like having an arm embracing the Imperial Capital City, turning it into a treasure spot for people to go on outings in the spring, for the Emperor to hunt, and even for the burial of famous scholars.

It stood between heaven and earth, lacking the peril of tall peaks and the sharp edges of strange ridges, but with the embrace of spiritual energy, it promised endless blessings, and thus many celebrated literati chose it as their final resting place. Therefore, people also called it Famous Scholar Mountain.

Bai Junjun asked clearly where the head of the Bai family was buried, then told the coachman and guards to wait there while they carried big and small packages up the mountain.

Famous Scholar Mountain wasn’t very high, but there was a certain distance from the foot to the middle of the mountain. Fortunately, everyone was skilled at escaping hardships, so such a journey was still manageable to them.

The crowd walked briskly towards the interior, and indeed, there were many tombs along the way.

However, those buried in Famous Scholar Mountain were basically people of repute, and these people of repute, as always, would not just erect a small mound.

Burial customs differ from place to place. Near the Imperial Capital, all would almost invariably have recessed tomb chambers.

The tomb only has one stele erected in front with a half-meter-high stone house built behind it, looking very much like an open-air stone coffin.

In reality, this half-meter-high stone coffin was just a passageway to an underground chamber with the extent of one room and two side chambers.

That is, the main tomb chamber and two additional chambers for the burial objects.

Bai Junjun could guarantee that careful excavation of this Famous Scholar Mountain would definitely unearth many treasures.

However, digging up one’s ancestral graves was something Bai Junjun only thought about in her mind.

After all, going to the tomb of the Zhongshan Mountain Overlord last time was completely accidental.

Moreover, they had busied themselves for a long time and didn’t end up with anything good.

But Bai Junjun did pay close attention to the surrounding forests and trees because, after all, Lady Lin had said yesterday that the bee honey was found here.

Speaking of bee honey, it had been a long time since she had eaten any. She wasn’t interested in the fight, but the bee honey was worth looking for.

The guide said that the Patriarch of the Bai family was buried in the middle of a flower field, next to which there was a Pine Wind Pavilion, built by Prince Hanying and very recognizable.

So they took the Pine Wind Pavilion as a reference point and walked forward.

Finally, after about fifteen minutes, the crowd finally saw a pavilion.

From afar, the pavilion had sections lined up like bamboo. Upon closer inspection, one could see that the pillars were constructed in the shape of bamboo, and on either side, there were elegies written.

The general idea is to bid farewell to a generation of famous scholars and to uphold the spirit of the great scholars that would forever prevail between heaven and earth.

On the plaque was written "Pine Wind Pavilion" in three characters.

This must have been the work of Yuwen Luanfei.

Not far from the pavilion were several family tombs, one of which read "Patriarch Bai Gong Muda of the Bai Yang Clan" and another "Lord Li Changfeng."

Upon seeing the tombstone of Li Changfeng, Ah Dao knelt down with a thud.
