HCB Chapter 283 Xu Cheng
Chapter 283 Xu Cheng
The secret guards received the order, arranged the surroundings of the five incorruptible corpses and began to burn them.
Lin Wuhui was anxious to show it, and patted Qianqian on the shoulder, "What's so good about burning corpses? Qianqian, why don't you go back and rest?"
Qian Qian looked up at his uncle and narrowed his eyes. "It's okay."
Lin Wuhui...
I secretly glanced at my wife and saw that she had a blank expression on her face and her palms were sweaty.
Xiao Lingshuang and Lin Wuwei looked at each other and silently moved away from Lin Wuhui.
The flames didn't burn for long before the five incorruptible corpses turned to ashes.
[Tongzi, when this corpse is burning, does it look similar to the black cloak that suddenly appeared on the black grassland? ]
[Yes,] the system confirmed, [these incorruptible corpses and the one in the black cloak should be from the same family.]
Qian Qian sneered, [Very good, so those people, those people we haven't checked out yet.]
She paused, [Has it been arranged in Daxia long ago?]
【Yes,】 the system affirms.
[As I just told you, one of the five corpses did not intend to expose his ability to pass through walls in front of Yan Qing.]
Qian Qian was silent, looking at the gradually dying flame.
Sure enough, familiar beads appeared among the black ashes of the corpses.
【Look,】 Money reminder system, 【It's that silver-gray bead again.】
The system thought for a while, [Princess, do you think the reason why these corpses are not decayed is related to these beads? ]
【Probably. 】
Qian Qian took action himself and picked out the gray beads through the handkerchief.
No more, no less, exactly five.
The largest one is about the size of a soybean, and the smallest one is about the size of a grain of rice.
A whistle sounded and a secret guard knelt in front of Qian Qian. She handed the handkerchief to the secret guard.
"Give this thing to Zhang Junmo and tell him that this is the same thing you gave him last time. Let him do what he wants."
"Yes."
The secret guard took the order and left. Qian Qian looked at the black ashes that were collected by the secret guard.
[Tongzi, how do we deal with these things? ]
[Hmm, I don't feel any threat,] the system said, [Why not bury it in the ground.]
【it is good. 】
Qian Qian also ordered people to bury the strange black ashes in an open space outside the city wall.
Lin Wuwei and others watched Qian Qian's arrangements in silence without saying a word.
"Uncle and aunt, uncle and aunt," Qian Qian turned to look at everyone and said solemnly, "If you encounter an uncorrupted corpse in the future, do the same."
"The silver-grey beads left after the corpse was burned should be sent to Zhang Junmo."
"Yes."
Everyone bowed in agreement.
Qian Qian nodded and went to find Yun Shu.
Lin Wuhui finally found an opportunity. He walked up to Qiqige, grinned, and hooked his wife's hand.
Qiqige held his hand tightly back and glanced at him with her phoenix eyes.
She took her husband to her residence.
Everyone...
Well, a couple needs to solve their own little problems.
Lin Youle rubbed Dundun and Tangyuan's cheeks and said, "Okay, you two little guys, stay at your uncle's house today."
Dun Dun and Tang Yuan looked at each other and nodded at their cousin.
After the storm, everyone was tired and went back home.
Dahua was worried about Qianqian, so she jumped onto the roof and looked at Qianqian and Yunshu in the courtyard.
Yun Shu sat under the courtyard corridor, looking down and fiddling with a few small wild flowers in her hands.
I heard the footsteps and turned around, meeting Qianqian's worried eyes.
"Money," Yun Shu tried to force a smile, but it seemed forced.
Qianqian sat next to Yunshu and looked at the flower in her hand.
"what happened to you?"
“I,” Yun Shu tilted his head, his voice low, “I’ve become weaker.”
She paused, "Originally, I could control the vegetation to spread over a dozen miles in a few breaths."
“But now, with the same few breaths of energy, I can only control the grass and trees to spread a few hundred meters. I am much weaker.” She looked up at the clouds in the sky.
Qian Qian frowned.
【Tongzi, what's going on? 】
[Princess, could it be a territorial shield? ]
The system speculated, [Could it be because of the territory's protective shield that Yun Shu's power was suppressed? ]
Qian Qian nodded gently, [I can't think of any other reason except this. ]
After sitting on the corridor with Yunshu for a long time, the two of them were shivering with cold and hurried back to the room to rest.
【Duang!】
Lying in bed, Qianqian heard the long-lost bell.
He suddenly opened his eyes and waited for the system to speak.
[Princess,] It’s been a long time since I’ve awakened my skills, and the system is extremely excited.
【我觉醒了三个技能哦，1、超级防护罩*5；2、系统隐藏符*5；3、能量修复器永久*1。】
Qian Qian thought for a long time and said hesitantly, "I choose, the energy repair device is permanent?"
The system has mixed emotions. [Princess, this energy repairer exists to provide energy for the territory's protective shield.]
[That is to say, if the territory's protective shield is attacked and damaged in the future. ]
[You can use the energy repairer to repair the territory shield with my energy. ]
After listening to the system's explanation, Qian Qian fell silent.
It took him a long while to find his voice again. "That is to say, the territorial shield will one day..."
[Princess,] The system interrupted Qianqian, [Don't let your imagination run wild, nothing has happened yet so we can't be anxious, right?]
The system's voice was exceptionally gentle, but Qian Qian felt uneasy inside.
I tossed and turned all night.
The next morning, Qianqian, Dahua and Yunshu said goodbye to everyone in Northern Frontier and left Xuanbi City.
Looking at the little girl riding away on Erdan's back, Lin Wuwei held Xiao Lingshuang's hand tightly.
"When things in the Northern Frontier are back on track, we can return to the capital at any time."
"Yeah," Xiao Lingshuang took a deep breath, still worried about the five uncorrupted corpses yesterday.
But now I can only suppress my emotions and look up at the sky, slowly seeing the snow falling. "It's getting cold so early this winter."
"Yes," Qiqige sighed, "It's the most difficult season in the northern border."
"It's okay," Lin Wuhui was refreshed after solving a big problem. He smiled and hooked his wife's finger, "Hehe, the northern border is just a new city, and every household has a brick bed."
"Yeah," Lin You took a step to the side, not wanting to look at his old father's smug look with a flushed face.
"Qian Qian left behind several coal mine maps," he said, stroking his chest with his hand, "The grassland will be exceptionally warm this winter."
Everyone turned to look at Lin You with burning eyes.
Coal mine...
Qianqian held Yunshu and sat on Erdan's back, while Dahua rode a good prairie horse.
The three of them galloped all the way and took the water route, and arrived at Xucheng in a few days.
Xucheng.
Lin Jin and Lin Yin have already tidied up the house and are just waiting for the princess and the county lady to arrive.
These days, they have negotiated with the Xucheng government office many times, hoping to see the uncorrupted bodies in advance.
But the officials from Xucheng government office didn't buy their story at all.
In the eyes of the officials, they were nothing more than servants of the Lin family.
As an official, there is no reason for him to listen to the words of his servants.
Jiang Zhenzhu had no choice but to step forward and instruct the Xucheng government office to make sure the bodies that had not decayed were properly frozen.
The Xucheng government office deserved Fu Yan, and Jiang Zhenzhu was also angry at the Xucheng officials and was helpless.
That night, Lin Jin and Lin Yin were really worried, so they took some people to visit the government office.
I came to the room where the three incorrupt corpses were placed and looked at the three naked corpses.
Lin Jin...
Lin Yin...
These people in Xucheng government office have such a bad taste.
Before the two men could cover the three bodies with white cloth, they suddenly heard a slight heartbeat.
Lin Jin and Lin Yin turned around abruptly and saw one of the women's bodies sitting upright.
The woman slowly opened her eyes, turned her head and looked at them strangely...
