The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 537: Digging a Grave

Following the location drawn by the water snake, Meng Shisan came to the edge of the locust tree forest, which was the side close to the cliff.

Changan said, "I don't know what that person was thinking of burying him here."

"This is definitely not a good location." Meng Shisan looked at the tombstone about fifteen or sixteen steps ahead. "Xiaoqing said... it was the six hundred year old water snake I mentioned to you. Its name is She Xiaoqing. I asked it to explore first. The position it drew for me said that it could not get within ten steps of the tombstone. No matter how it used magic, it could not defeat the magic that had been set up within ten steps of the tombstone."

"I'll try." Chang'an immediately understood what Meng Shisan meant.

Chang'an walked forward, counting in her mind. After five or six steps, she stood at the edge of the ten-step range.

Meng Shisan was also watching.

Chang'an took the first step, but it was as if there was an invisible wall blocking her way. She couldn't take this step forward at all, and was stuck, unable to land.

Then she used her magic power.

In an instant, the locust tree branches from all directions were like arms and long swords, attacking the invisible wall in front of her at the same time.

There was a sudden loud clanging sound, and the invisible wall was intact, but she still could not move forward even an inch.

Chang An retracted his magic power, frowned and turned back to say: "Miss, I have used 50% of my magic power, and the magic I used is also focused on attacking, but I can't do anything about this invisible and intangible wall. The magic that built this wall is really powerful. If I go all out, I'm afraid that the tombstone inside the magic will be destroyed as well."

Meng Shisan stepped forward and stood beside Chang'an. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Step aside, I'll try."

"But the young lady has no magical powers now, and the weak demonic aura is probably in vain." Although Chang'an said this, he obediently took two steps back.

Meng Shisan said: "No problem, I'll give it a try."

"Then be careful young lady."

"Ah."

Chang'an is not worried about Meng Shisan.

In her eyes, her master could even survive a thousand-year-old thunder calamity. Although her origin of the mere magic to protect the tombstone was still unknown, no matter how powerful it was, it could not hurt her master at all.

Besides, although the master is now in human form, he has her by his side. After all, she is already nine hundred years old, and can withstand the thunder tribulation in another hundred years. Even if her Taoism is not very good, she can protect the master without any problem.

Meng Shisan raised his right hand, gathered all the weak demonic energy in his palm, and pushed it forward.

Changan became nervous: "Miss... eh?"

As soon as she called out, she saw Meng Shisan's right hand directly penetrate the invisible wall that she had failed to break even with 50% of her magic power.

So the rest of the words got stuck in her throat.

Meng Shisan was also quite surprised: "It seems... not that difficult?"

But why was it that the water snake and Chang'an could not break through the attack no matter how hard they tried, and could not get even a single step closer?
She looked at Chang'an, and Chang'an looked at her.

Both of them were full of doubts.

Meng Shisan walked into the ten-step magic set by the tombstone. Chang'an wanted to follow him in, but found himself stopped again.

Chang'an wondered: "It seems that the person who set up this magic not only wanted to protect the integrity of the tombstone, but also wanted to block those who were not chosen."

Meng Shisan also had a feeling of being chosen by the tombstone, but he didn't know whether being chosen and allowed to enter within ten steps of the tombstone was a good thing or a bad thing.

Chang An then thought of something: "I can't go in, and I can't protect you at all times. Why don't you go in first? When I find a way to crack it, I will go to the tombstone with you."

"No need, I'll be fine." Although Meng Shisan had lost her magic power, she only had a weak demonic aura on her body, which could protect herself. She felt that it was no big problem. Moreover, the tombstone in front of her was related to the scene of the fragments in her dream, which was already within reach. How could she retreat because of the unknown danger?

Meng Shisan walked within ten steps.

After walking ten steps, she came to the tombstone, squatted down and looked at it carefully.

It was exactly the same as the fragments she had dreamed of, broken, with words on it now blank, and full of traces of erosion by time.

But there is a problem now. Even if she finds the tombstone of the third piece of dream fragment, she cannot know the meaning of this tombstone in her dream. She doesn't even know who the tombstone is for.

Meng Shisan frowned and said, "Changan, go find a shovel."

"Iron shovel?" Chang'an was slow to react for two breaths. When she realized why Meng Shisan was looking for the shovel, she was not too surprised and responded, "Okay, Miss, wait a moment."

Meng Shisan stood up and walked slowly around the tombstone and the grave mound behind it.

She was sure that she had never been here before, but this place gave her an inexplicably familiar feeling that she had been here before, as if Chang'an and the water snake could not enter this magic or get close to this tombstone, but she could do it all the same, and there was something weird about it everywhere.

Digging up human graves is a very immoral thing to do, but in order to find the truth, she doesn't care about that.

After digging it up and burying it, she will apologize to the corpse under the tombstone.

Kneeling and kowtowing is impossible, but you can offer incense and candles as tribute.

You have to know that since she was born, she has knelt to heaven, to the earth, and to her ancestors, but she has never knelt to anyone else.

As for her parents, she hadn't seen them since she was able to remember things, and she couldn't remember anything before she was able to remember things.

She thought she might have parents, but she was more like an orphan.

One thousand five hundred years have passed, and it doesn't really matter whether he had parents or was an orphan.

The most important thing is that she lives well.

So she never knelt before her parents.

There is no chance.

Chang'an returned to Zhishang Taoist Temple and soon found an iron shovel in the firewood room in the back kitchen of the temple.

She came up to Meng Shisan with a shovel in her hand and said, "Miss, I can't get it in."

Meng Shisan walked back to the edge of the ten-step range and took the shovel from Chang'an's hand: "Go prepare some more incense and candles as tribute."

"Yes." Chang'an turned around and went back to the Taoist temple. There were plenty of incense, candles and offerings in the Taoist temple.

Meng Shisan walked to the side of the grave with a shovel in his hand and said, "No matter who you are, I don't know who you are, but I'm sorry for offending you today."

After saying that, he dug down with a shovel.

When Chang'an returned to the edge of the ten-step range with incense, candles and offerings, Meng Shisan had already dug a small half of the grave and was sitting beside the grave, resting breathlessly.

Chang'an was a little annoyed. If she had more abilities, stronger powers, and higher magic skills, she would definitely be able to get in, and the master wouldn't have to go through the tiring process of digging the grave himself.

Meng Shisan took a break, then picked up the shovel and continued digging: "Don't worry about my health like Baozhu does. My health is much better now. If not, I wouldn't have dared to think about digging a grave with my own hands a few months ago."

Right now, she's fine, nothing serious is wrong with her.
