The Treasury Suite pillow has a hidden compartment containing the Daoguang era "Huitong Tianxia" secret seal book 2. The right hand of the Weituo statue at Shuanglin Temple points to a brick seam hiding a Ming Dynasty craftsman's "time capsule" 3. The third iron door in Wang Family underground palace requires three copper coins to be placed according to the "Heaven, Earth, Man" directions to open 4. Tea bricks should be dipped in Qi County aged vinegar, which was the ancient caravan's secret remedy to prevent scurvy📸**Popular photo spots**: Opening the silver cellar moment / Thousand-Hand Guanyin pupil reflection / Ledger code projection / Tea smoke forming the character "Shang" *Whispering mysteriously* To capture the best shots, bring a metal detector—last year I dug out a whole box of "Jing copper" coins in the county magistrate's stable, each coin's hole engraved with a micro-carving of "Das Kapital." Even more eerie, on full moon nights, mold with interest seeps from the treasury wall cracks… It is said to be the soul of old shopkeeper Lei Lutai, calculating "honest compound interest" for modern people!
