Chapter 74 Jiang Pingzhi is not dead

Following Nan Qingchu, Su Lian entered a secret room.

Under the dim light, a transparent ice coffin was placed quietly in the room, with its four corners tied by silk threads and suspended in the air.

Su Lian walked forward slowly. Before he could get close to the ice coffin, the alarm bell rang loudly in his mind:

"Warning! The mission progress is about to be cleared. Please choose the appropriate processing method as soon as possible, otherwise you will be punished for mission failure."

Su Lian raised his eyebrows and called the little pom-pom in his heart:

"Little Pom Pom, what does it mean that the mission progress is about to be cleared?"

She was not surprised at all to be punished for mission failure. After all, Jiang Pingzhi was part of her mission. Now that Jiang Pingzhi is dead, it means the mission has failed.

The little pom-pom scratched his head:

"It probably means... there is still a chance of improvement?"

Su Lian paused and looked at Jiang Pingzhi's face frozen by ice from a distance. A bold idea emerged from the bottom of his heart:

"He's not dead yet?"

Nan Qingchu was startled and squeezed Su Lian's shoulders with a serious expression:

"Xiao Lian, he is already dead. This is just an ice coffin that my elder brother made for him in order to preserve his body. It can preserve the immortality of the body.

Su Lian was silent, knowing that he would not believe anything she told him at this time, and might even think that she was being stimulated and became a madman.

"Brother, can you show me the files on the life and death Gu?"

Su Lian turned around and made a request that the Southern Qing Dynasty had not thought of.

Because the Life and Death Gu was a secret technique and was hidden in a dark room, Nan Qingchu thought for a moment and took out a thin piece of dark yellow paper sandwiched among thick books from the bookshelf on the side.

Although in the early Southern Qing Dynasty, he deliberately covered the end of the paper with his big palm, Su Lian was still keenly aware that it was not a complete piece of paper.

Looking at Su Lian, Nan Qingchu looked apologetic:

"Xiao Lian, this is a forbidden technique of the Nan clan. Children in the clan are not allowed to learn it. Your talent is too strong and it is unforgettable. Big brother cannot leave this to you."

Seeing that he had gotten the answer he wanted, Su Lian nodded and raised the corners of his lips with a gentle arc:

"Well, let's go."

Knowing that Jiang Pingzhi was not dead, Su Lian couldn't help but feel relieved.

After all, in her dictionary, as long as the person is still breathing, she can definitely pull the person back from the gate of hell.

As night gradually fell, the shadows of the two people reflected on the ground, and Su Lian watched the shadows shaking with some trance.

Nan Qingchu looked at her for a long time and then said worriedly:

"Xiao Lian, can you go shopping with me on the street?"

I heard that girls like these gadgets. Maybe going shopping will make her less bored.

Su Lian was stunned, because she was injured every time she approached Jiuzhou City, so she still didn't know what the difference was between this legendary "paradise" and the outside, but she was curious about Jiuzhou City.

The news that Jiang Pingzhi was not dead made her feel a lot more relaxed. In addition, she had originally wanted to find a way to "wake up" Jiang Pingzhi starting from Jiuzhou City.

If she guessed correctly, the life and death Gu learned by the Southern Qing Dynasty only had the first half of the fragment. As for the second half, it might still be hidden in a secret corner of Jiuzhou City.

"Ding! Start the side life mission - looking for the lost secret Gu of the Nan clan."

The mechanical sound sounded, and Su Lian discovered that the system had issued another task.

If it were normal, she would be older than the others. After all, before the first two were solved, a third one came.

But now Su Lian doesn't think so, because the release of this mission has undoubtedly verified her suspicion just now - there must be another volume of Life and Death Gu.

In other words, death is not necessarily the final destination.

While talking, the two of them had arrived in the middle of the streets of Jiuzhou City.

Su Lian looked around and couldn't help but sigh that Jiuzhou City is really a work of art that has transcended the culture of this era.

On the street, a model of a four-wheel engine has suddenly appeared. Although it is rough, it is also carrying people forward in an extremely slow and clumsy way without manual labor. The people coming and going are even more avant-garde and bold, although they are still wearing long robes.

Skirts are not as tightly wrapped and have strict specifications as in other countries. Instead, they are mainly unique and beautiful. There are many people who reveal their beautiful collarbones and slender legs.

What surprised Su Lian the most was that many of the people doing business on the street carrying book bags were women. Like men, they stood in the crowd and talked loudly, discussing business news or court affairs.

Several of them seemed to have discovered the early days of the Southern Qing Dynasty, but they only nodded and smiled, and did not perform any actions such as kneeling down and worshiping.

If Su Lian hadn't clearly known that he was in ancient times at this time, he would have thought where he was.

Although she has lived in modern times for a long time, she is quite accustomed to the scene in front of her. But in any case, as a city, Jiuzhou City can allow the people in it to achieve such a "separate and independent" existence, which is already a miracle of civilization.

.

Seeing Su Lian's shocked face, Nan Qingchu explained:

"That's how it is in Jiuzhou City. Everyone has their own life. I am the city lord, but I am only the king of this city. I am the wall that protects them, so they don't need to kneel down and worship me."

Su Lian nodded in agreement, but couldn't help but said:

"In Jiuzhou City, women can also do business and become officials?"

In the early days of the Southern Qing Dynasty, he looked back in confusion:

"This is natural. There is no difference between women and men. Like other countries that only allow men to work abroad and engage in business and politics, while women stay at home to serve their parents-in-law and children, it is wrong. Jiuzhou City has always given priority to those who are able."

Su Lian nodded.

She believes that equality is one of the unchanging themes of world development. Jiuzhou City is undoubtedly a big step ahead of other countries, whether it is technology or ideas. It is no wonder that it can remain independent and mysterious for so many years despite being surrounded by tigers and wolves from many countries.

Raising a gentle smile, Su Lian felt happy from the bottom of her heart.

In a secluded corner, He Muyan hid behind a tall shelf, watching Su Lian holding the hand of the person next to him, with excitement and happiness on his face that he had never seen before.

"Your Majesty, if you are really so reluctant to part with your concubine, you should go and say goodbye to her in person."

On the side, Zhou Ninghai's eyebrows were almost twisted into knots, and he was heartbroken when he saw the unlovable look on His Highness's face.

He Muyan didn't answer, he just looked at Su Lian's back seriously, but that was all.

Su Lian had a bunch of candied haws in her left hand and a bag of scones in her right hand. She was enjoying eating them.

Looking at the lake where fireworks suddenly lit up not far away, Su Lian stood on tiptoe curiously.

"Where is what?"

"People who paint boats to recruit brides, children, don't go there blindly."

Nan Qingchu said calmly, holding her collar and pulling her back.

Su Lian took a closer look, and sure enough, there were several gorgeous boats floating on the lake, and they were brightly lit.
