The biggest secret of the Ice City is the Ice Grass underneath. The top of the Ice City is just an ordinary city, but the cold in this place is extremely cold. If it weren’t for the Ice Grass, Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng would have become an Ice City.
A part of it is forever frozen here by the Ice City, becoming a "landscape" of the Ice City.
In addition to the "humanoid ice sculpture" they encountered when they came out, Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng also saw the Northern Qi spy chief and Xihu officials in the city.
They were also frozen, but each of their faces was extremely ferocious, as if they had suffered great pain before death.
"He probably died of suffocation. He struggled violently before his death." Gu Qiancheng suffered from an occupational disease and stepped forward to take a look and said.
"It's done when people die." Whether it was his identity or the secret of the Ice Soul Grass, Qin Jiyan didn't want anyone other than them to know about it.
If it was just a piece of grass, Qin Jiyan wouldn't take it seriously, but when he heard Gu Qiancheng talking about Changsheng Fang, Qin Jiyan had to pay attention.
Gu Qiancheng knew the existence of Changsheng Fang, and maybe others knew it too. Otherwise, why would Emperor Xihu keep Zhu Da in prison?
No matter what the reason was, Qin Jiyan didn't want the secret of the Ice Soul Grass to be exposed. If this place wasn't built so weirdly, Qin Jiyan would have wanted to destroy the Ice City.
Qin Jiyan, Gu Qiancheng and his party searched for several days in Bingcheng but could not find a way out. Qin Jiyan decided to take the risk and return the same way.
When they were leaving, Qin Jiyan privately warned Gu Qiancheng, "No one should tell anyone about Bingcheng's affairs after we go out, especially those about Changsheng Fang. We must keep them secret. Even if we talk in our sleep, we are not allowed to mention this matter."
If people knew that Gu Qiancheng knew about the recipe for longevity and had seen Ice Soul Grass, Gu Qiancheng would not even think about living.
"I know, I won't tell anyone." Of course Gu Qiancheng knew the importance of the Changsheng Fang. If she hadn't met the Ice Soul Grass, the matter of the Changsheng Fang would have rotted in her stomach, and even Qin Jiyan wouldn't know it.
explain.
"Yes." Qin Jiyan nodded with satisfaction, and then warned the secret guard. After the secret guard pledged his life and asked to take a huge poison that required an antidote for a year, Qin Jiyan then
rest assured.
He believed in the secret guard's loyalty at the moment, but he could not guarantee that the secret guard would remain loyal. The most difficult thing to control in the world was the human heart. He would rather be ruthless in advance than regret later.
After confirming that except for them, all the insiders would be frozen forever, Qin Jiyan pulled Gu Qiancheng out of the ice city.
After coming out of Ice City, Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng felt as if they were in another world. Only when they walked out did they deeply feel that they were still alive.
During the month I stayed in the Ice City, there was only dazzling whiteness and cold ice slag in front of me. I could only live on ice grass every day. I wonder if I can come out? I wonder when I will freeze to death?
The month in Bingcheng was so miserable that Gu Qiancheng didn't want to mention it.
"Finally made it out alive." Gu Qiancheng took a deep breath. Although it was still cold outside the Ice City, at least this was a place for people to stay.
Qin Jiyan laughed and looked around, but found no presence of Xihu officers and soldiers, and felt a little relieved.
They are really not suitable for a head-on conflict with Xihu officers and soldiers now.
"Let's leave quickly while there are no officers and soldiers around." Qin Jiyan did not waste any time and pulled Gu Qiancheng towards the direction of the iron rope, followed closely by the secret guards.
"Okay." Gu Qiancheng knew the importance. Although he was very tired, he didn't say a word. The two of them quickly ran to the iron rope. Qin Jiyan reached out and hugged Gu Qiancheng, but found that Gu Qiancheng's waist
The room was wet, "What's going on?"
Qin Jiyan was startled, thinking that Gu Qiancheng was injured. Fortunately, what he touched was just ordinary water and not blood, so he felt relieved.
"What?" Gu Qiancheng lowered his head and realized that his coat was all wet, "Ah? When did it get wet? Why didn't I know?"
Gu Qiancheng hurriedly took pictures, and in the middle of taking pictures, he suddenly realized, "Ah, my ice plant." He reached out and dug out, only to find a few residual leaves, which were dead and worthless. As for the blue square, it was even more valuable.
There is no trace.
Thinking of the water in his waist, Gu Qiancheng knew it without even thinking...
Ice grass, she can't take it out!
"How could this happen?" Gu Qiancheng was about to cry but had no tears. Was her work in vain? Was their trip to Ice City in vain?
"It's okay if it's gone." Qin Jiyan didn't care about the Ice Soul Grass at all, and he had never thought about immortality.
"You're right, it doesn't matter if this thing is gone, it will be troublesome if something happens." Gu Qiancheng took a few ice grass plants out, purely because he wanted to study why ice grass can stop hunger? Can it?
Bring them heat?
Now that it's gone, I feel a little regretful, but I'm not really sad.
"Well." Qin Jiyan felt a headache when he saw Gu Qiancheng's wet clothes, "Your clothes are all wet, and you will get frostbite if you wear them like this. Let's get up there quickly." Let's light up the fire and bake Gu Qiancheng's clothes.
The secret guard didn't say a word from beginning to end, only snickering where Qin Jiyan couldn't see him. His Highness didn't notice that he was looking more and more like the old butler now.
Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng left the ice city quietly using the iron rope. A gust of cold wind blew up and dried up the dripping water, leaving no trace.
This is the Ice City. Everyone who enters the city will become a part of the Ice City and will never leave. Even if they leave, they can only leave empty-handed. The builder of the Ice City does not allow anyone to get involved in his Ice Soul Grass.
Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng were lucky to be able to leave alive, but it was not that easy to take away the Ice Soul Grass.
The ice city still stands proudly in place, deserted and refusing everyone to enter...
Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng were lucky. Not only did they not encounter any officers or soldiers when they came up from the Ice City, the heavy snow in the secret forest had even melted, making it much easier to cover up their traces.
There are many ferocious beasts in the secret forest, which are dangerous to others, but for Qin Jiyan and his party, encountering their beasts is even more dangerous.
In the Ice City, there was no human food for a month. The first thing the group did when they came out was to attack the beasts in the secret forest.
Naturally, such a trivial matter did not require His Highness Qin to take action. The secret guards still worked very hard and cleaned all the rabbits and pheasants before sending them to His Highness Qin.
Although Qin Jiyan is not good at cooking, he can cook barbecue well. It is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, but the taste is good. Gu Qiancheng is grilling the wet clothes while enjoying His Highness Qin's feeding. Not to mention how beautiful it is.
.
Gu Qiancheng was very satisfied with the meal. After eating half of the rabbit leg, Gu Qiancheng rubbed his belly and said, "I'm full." It means, Your Highness Qin, you can stop feeding.
"Yeah." Qin Jiyan did stop feeding, but he handed the remaining half of the rabbit to Gu Qiancheng...
