All nine empresses betrayed me, why am I crying after being reborn as a saint?
Chapter 41: Red Powder and White Bones
On the same day that Feng Yanran was demoted to an outer disciple of Lingshan, Chen Yuan found a secret realm through the Tiandao Verification System. According to Xiao Ai, this should be an ancient relic with many precious treasures and elixirs. However, when Chen Yuan really arrived at the secret realm, there was nothing there.
This made Chen Yuan a little confused. For a moment he even suspected that the Tiandao calculation system had made a mistake, but then he thought about it carefully and realized that this should be an ancient tomb.
Ancient tombs are quite common among ancient ruins. After all, compared to trial ruins like the Ling Palace, more powerful people from ancient and modern times are more willing to spend their experience and efforts on their own tombs.
"It looks like this is going to be a bit tricky."
Chen Yuan sniffed, looked forward, and listened closely behind with his ears pricked up.
He said this as a double entendre, as there was a dog following him.
It is very likely that he is someone connected to the Nine Women, or he may be here to look for treasure. But no matter who he is, he is probably not here with good intentions.
Saying it's tricky doesn't mean that I think the other party is a difficult one to deal with, I just think it's troublesome.
He knew the man's position, and he even thought about rushing over to beat him up, but that was too reckless. He was far from invincible now, and his strength was not 100% certain. It was better to be cautious and not alert the enemy. He would wait and see what the other party would do.
Now that we don't have a conflict with that person, what should we do if we can't enter the ruins on the right?
After thinking about it for a while, Chen Yuan felt that it would be better to go back to the Daqian Palace first.
He needed help to enter the ruins. Even though he was a saint king in his previous life and was proficient in tens of thousands of techniques and miscellaneous knowledge, he really didn't know how to use such dishonorable techniques as tomb robbing. After all, he considered himself a noble and upright person in his previous life, so how could he learn such a technique that would damage his moral character?
If you want to be unlucky, you have to find the fat monk and the thin Taoist priest in the palace. Both of them are members of the cult. Apart from the newcomers who only know the basics, one and a half of the two of them know how to go into a tomb. There are not many who are proficient in it, so it is no problem for them to find the entrance to the tomb.
Moreover, if he went back now, he could test whether the dog behind him was running towards him or the tomb. If it was running towards the tomb, it would not follow him, and he would be spared a trouble.
As for whether the other party would rob the tomb while he was away, there was nothing that could be done about it. If that really happened, he could only say that he was not as skilled as others in digging into tombs. It was normal that he could not get the first bite without others' skills. But no matter how skillful the other party was, there would always be some left for him to eat, right?
Thinking of this, he turned around and left, returning the same way he came.
Facts have proved that the dog in the dark was not heading for the mausoleum, but for Chen Yuan. Even after Chen Yuan left the mausoleum area and returned to the imperial city, the dog still followed Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan realized that there was no way to resolve the matter peacefully. The dog following him must be planning to attack him when he was tired one day. It must be said that the other party was also a cautious person.
In this case, he might as well deliberately expose a flaw to the other party and lure them into taking the bait. Chen Yuan returned to the capital of Daqian, but was troubled by how to expose a flaw to the other party.
What kind of state can make the other party feel that he has a flaw?
You can't say that he deliberately let himself be seriously injured, or that he destroyed his own cultivation, right?
Those behaviors that will really make you fall into a trap are naturally not allowed, so what should you do?
Chen Yuan, with something on his mind, was wandering around the street. Before he knew it, it was already getting dark. He walked through a remote alley and saw bright lights in front of him. A fragrant breeze blew on his face, but it choked Chen Yuan and made him cough.
This is the inferior fragrance of a woman's body. The reason why it is choking is because it is made of some cheap and seductive materials. Moreover, with such a strong smell, there must be more than one woman using it. Just by this smell, Chen Yuan knew where the place in front was.
Chen Yuanshi really disliked places of red-light districts. It wasn't that he wasn't interested in women, but he just thought they were dirty.
However, just when he was about to retreat, he remembered that he didn't have to expose his flaws to the other party, and it might be possible to force the other party to reveal his flaws.
Thinking of this, he walked a little further. When he passed through the alley, he saw a fireworks field in front of him.
The fireworks are so filthy that they cannot be any lower than the ninth class, but they are often very prosperous. The capital of Daqian is the best among them. In March, the fireworks are beautiful and there are bright lights everywhere. However, the beauties are blushing but they are white bones when you look closely.
This is often the truth in the world: beautiful women turn into bones, bones are beautiful, and beautiful places are actually very dirty.
"Hey uncle, come in and sit down. The girls in my family are all very beautiful."
A bloated mother grabbed Chen Yuan's hand, and the scent of rouge that came to her face almost choked Chen Yuan to death.
Chen Yuan shook his hand away in disgust.
"Lead the way."
The voice was cold, with a hint of pride.
"Okay, sir, come to our Yihongyuan and I promise you will enjoy it so much that you won't want to leave."
My mother greeted me with a smile, but there was a barely perceptible hint of teasing at the corner of her mouth.
Having worked in the place of fireworks for half her life, how could she not see Chen Yuan's disdain? It was a lie to say that she didn't care. She just thought that Chen Yuan was the kind of customer who was both a boss and a jerk, and she was immediately disgusted. But then again, even if Chen Yuan didn't have this attitude, which customer in this place of fireworks had ever waited for true joy?
Chen Yuan followed his mother into the Yihong Courtyard, and a graceful figure walked out from the darkness behind him.
The girl was pretty, with a rosy face, but her brows were furrowed and her fists were clenched.
"Since I'm in a place like this, why did I fall in love with him in my previous life?"
This person was none other than Shui Lianyi, one of the nine women of the aquatic clan and the sea queen.
Even though Chen Yuan was not stupid and guessed that the person behind him was most likely one of the nine women, he never thought it would be Shui Lianyi.
When it comes to the nine women hating their husbands, most of their reasons are very strange, but Shui Lianyi's is probably the strangest one.
Shui Lianyi, who loves freedom by nature, hates Chen Yuan because she feels that her marriage with Chen Yuan restricts her freedom.
Logically speaking, she should be the most successful among the nine women. After all, she has nothing to do with Chen Yuan now and has completely regained her freedom. She should have no reason to bother Chen Yuan.
Ke Ren is complicated and mean. In her previous life, she would rather betray Chen Yuan than be free, but in this life, she took the initiative to cling to him. She even felt resentful of Chen Yuan for entering the Yihong Courtyard, not knowing that she no longer had the identity to resent.
"I just went in to take a look at how filthy he really is."
Shui Lianyi comforted herself and was about to follow him, but she forgot that she was a girl and did not notice the greed in the man's eyes when he glanced at her.
On the other side, Chen Yuan threw down a bag of gold and silver and started to recruit soldiers.
"This, this, and this,
"Master, do you want them all?"
My mother smiled so happily that she wanted to go up and give me a kiss.
