All nine empresses betrayed me, why am I crying after being reborn as a saint?

Chen Yuan carefully observed the actions of the fat and thin Taoist priests. They were not digging graves aimlessly.

The thin Taoist priest would smell the soil while digging to determine whether there were any major tombs underground.

"Well, I suspect the main tomb chamber is right below. Let's dig towards this point."

"Yes, when we dig to the end of the ground, we will be able to see the tomb at the bottom. Then, we can dig all the way to the tomb chamber."

"Row."

Chen Yuan nodded repeatedly.

The thin Taoist priest took out another set of Luoyang shovels from his savings bracelet and handed them to Chen Yuan.

"Here you go. For those of us who hang out outside all the time, we have multiple copies of these grave-digging weapons and equipment. Take them and use them."

"Okay, I'll dig now."

After hearing this, Chen Yuan immediately followed the instructions of Fat and Thin and started digging right away.

Only then did he realize that the seemingly ordinary Luoyang shovel was quite difficult to dig with, but he did not expect that after actually digging the soil, it was actually quite labor-saving.

Chen Yuan looked at the Luoyang shovel with some surprise.

"You two, how come this Luoyang shovel of yours looks ordinary, but is so convenient and quick to use?"

The thin Taoist priest explained to Chen Yuan with a smile.

"Of course. I first injected my own spiritual energy into this Luoyang shovel, and then used the illusory fire to refine it for 9981 days."

"Compared to ordinary Luoyang shovels, my Luoyang shovel can dig underground tunnels ten times faster than ordinary Luoyang shovels."

The thin Taoist saw that Chen Yuan's digging technique was still not standard, so he immediately stepped forward and gave instructions.

"And Fellow Daoist Chen, your method of digging is wrong. I will teach you how to dig a tunnel leading to the bottom of the cave. When we dig down, I will teach you how to dig vertical and horizontal shafts."

"Okay, thank you, Master Shou."

Chen Yuan humbly asked for advice.

As the three of them dug the tunnel, they became more familiar with each other after some conversation.

Since the conversation was quite interesting, Chen Yuan subconsciously asked the fat and thin Taoist priests.

"I have already introduced myself before. I wonder what your status is in the cult?"

"Status? Haha, we don't have much status. We are just the fat and thin leaders of the cult who are hunted by the government for many years and are at the top of the list."

"So your nicknames are Fat Master and Thin Master?"

The fat Taoist priest standing nearby hurriedly explained.

"In fact, we both had names since we were born, but after we joined the cult and successfully took the throne of the leader, others started calling us the Fat Leader and the Thin Leader, and we gradually stopped using our real names."

"I see."

"Brother Fatty, stop talking nonsense and quickly take out some bamboo sticks from your storage bracelet."

The thin Taoist priest narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he sensed something from the ordinary surface soil, and gave instructions to the fat Taoist priest.

"Oh well."

I saw the fat Taoist priest took out a pile of bamboo strips from his own storage bracelet, sat there and weaved something, and then he stopped digging the grave.

"Eh? Thin Hall Master, what did you ask Fat Hall Master to do just now? Isn't digging a grave more important right now?"

"I took a closer look. The soil we are digging is loess, which is easy to cultivate and crops can easily take root. Therefore, a lot of grass grows here and it is quite lush."

The thin Taoist priest patiently explained to Chen Yuan.

"But it has poor water retention and severe soil erosion. This soil is easily affected by drought due to its poor water retention, which leads to an unstable soil structure. Therefore, this loess is prone to collapse after excavation."

"What are the uses of these bamboo strips?" Chen Yuan carefully watched the fat Taoist's weaving movements, and felt more and more that he seemed to be weaving a triangular frame.

The thin Taoist priest said with a smile.

"I'll ask the fat Taoist priest to use bamboo strips to make triangular frames and stack them together. When the time comes, we can weave them into a long dragon. Once we dig a tunnel, we can use these bamboo strips to support the inside of the tunnel to prevent it from collapsing."

"It's a good thing I brought you two here to explore the ancient mausoleum. Otherwise, if I were alone, I might have collapsed the tomb if I wasn't careful."

Chen Yuan nodded repeatedly as he dug.

The water ripples that had been following her all along hid not far away to conceal their traces. She watched Chen Yuan and two fat and thin Taoist priests digging a grave.

She narrowed her eyes slightly. Chen Yuan did not take advantage of the moment of rebirth to practice, but was digging a grave here. Could it be that there is some unique treasure here?

Shui Lianyi had no intention of alerting the enemy at this moment.

After all, she is now calculating the time. After these three people finish digging the tunnel leading to the underground, she will then follow them quietly and snatch the treasure that Chen Yuan wants to obtain.

I could faintly hear the sound of a Luoyang shovel digging the soil above me, hiding under the ancient tomb.

A female Taoist priest in black clothes who was sitting in a secret room in the ancient mausoleum and meditating on an ice-black stone slightly opened her eyes.

This is Nie Ronger.

She was born with a Taoist body.

He is a gifted man and a natural practitioner.

She was one of Chen Yuan’s nine daughters before. Since her rebirth, she has been practicing silently in the ancient mausoleum.

She believed that in her previous life she could not match Chen Yuan's cultivation, and that Chen Yuan had disturbed her mind, making her deeply trapped in certain love affairs and worldly troubles.

Now, after being reborn, Nie Ronger immediately lives in an uninhabited ancient tomb and devotes himself to cultivation.

She discovered that this ancient palace was filled with nine secret rooms, each of which contained countless large amounts of gold and rare treasures.

Nie Ronger spent a lot of effort to open the eight secret rooms in front.

And she has not yet solved the last secret room.

There was even some ice stone in one of the secret rooms.

The Mysterious Ice Stone must be a treasure that was left to the mortal world by some great being after he ascended to heaven. It exudes endless spiritual power. Ordinary people can just sit on it and meditate, and the spiritual power will be continuously absorbed into their bodies.

Nie Ronger felt like he had come here since his rebirth and began to meditate and practice.

In this life, my cultivation is definitely not worse than Chen Yuan's.

She felt that she would definitely have the hope of becoming the first female saint king in history.

But now, she felt that there seemed to be tomb robbers who dared to run wild in her territory, and she could not sit idly by.

Nie Ronger opened her eyes slightly, restrained her breath, and then stood up.

"Who dares to trespass into my territory without permission? Do you want to die?"

And on the other side of the surface.

The fat and thin Taoist priests are indeed professional grave diggers and tomb robbers.

Soon, the fat Taoist priest dug a tunnel leading directly to the mausoleum below.
