Tang Yue stabbed a shovel into the soil with all his might, the vertical handle appearing like a tombstone.
Although he was supposed to head out and do his daily chores, Tang Yue had begun digging a pit with a shovel after he had finished moving the solar panels.
He had chosen a prime location that wasn't too far from the Eagle. The ground was flat, and there was a shallow ditch ahead with a hill behind. In Chinese geomancy parlance, good sites for burials usually had mountain peaks at the back and rivers or lakes running in front. In the book "Burial," written by Guo Pu, a famous geomancy theorist from the Jin dynasty, one had to follow water-related principles as they were essential. Tang Yue had no idea if such principles worked on Mars, for the godforsaken place hadn't had water for millions of years.
