Mingzhu pondered, "Senior Brother's judgment should be correct, but what do the White Tiger and Vermilion Bird signify?"
The old monk had someone fetch a map of nearby mountains and rivers and addressed Li Yan, "Young benefactor, could you help this old monk point out the directions?"
Li Yan observed the map and found it to be exactly the same as the vision he had seen, then he pointed at two areas, "Here, the White Tiger is subdued by the mountain ranges, and here, the Vermilion Bird slumbers."
Upon seeing this, the old monk nodded, "This place is the Barbarian King's tomb, during the Han Dynasty, it was an active area for the Jiangxia Barbarians, frequently revolting and rebelling."
"There are rumors that the ancestral spirit of the Ba people, Lin Jun, transformed into the White Tiger after death, thus the Ba people, as well as the Jiangxia Barbarians, use the White Tiger as their totem. There must be something strange in the Barbarian King's tomb."
