Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg-Chapter 754: Discovery of the Corpse

After some calculations, Jiang Xue began to search within the range she had figured out. She started by searching around the base of the cliff, then slowly expanded her search area.

One circle, two circles, by the time she reached the third circle, she smelled an unusual odor, like something rotten and decomposing.

Smelling this odor, Jiang Xue’s expression changed. She quickly entered the space, took a slice of ginger from the kitchen and placed it in her mouth, then headed towards the direction of the smell.

She reached the place quickly and immediately saw the pile of something on the ground that looked like a person. The odor was emanating from that pile.

Taking a step closer, Jiang Xue could vaguely make out that it was a person and moreover a man. However, judging by the clothes he was wearing, it wasn’t Mu Qiancheng.

This discovery allowed Jiang Xue’s tense heart to relax. She guessed that the person might have been Mu Qiancheng’s target, that is, his enemy.

After confirming it wasn’t the person she was looking for, Jiang Xue didn’t linger and was about to leave. However, after a few steps, she stopped, then asked the Little Fox in the space, "Little Fox, is there in the space realm a potion that can dissolve a corpse?"

"Woman, what do you need that thing for?" asked the Little Fox puzzled.

"I found a corpse outside and want to dispose of it, otherwise it’s too smelly to just leave it there, affecting the air quality."

"Let me see." The Little Fox then went to search through its treasure trove and indeed found a small bottle labeled with corpse-dissolving potion.

So it brought out the bottle, and said to Jiang Xue, "I found the item. Do you want to come in, or should I go out?"

"You come out!" Jiang Xue considered that she already carried the odor of the corpse on her and didn’t want to bring that into the space, possibly affecting the child, so she asked the Little Fox to bring it out.

Hearing this, the Little Fox came out from the space and handed the corpse-dissolving potion to Jiang Xue, saying, "Just one drop will do."

After saying that, it returned to the space. The smell outside was simply too unbearable for it.

Jiang Xue took the corpse-dissolving potion and approached the corpse. One drop of the potion, and the corpse instantly dissolved into a puddle of water that seeped into the ground.

With the disappearance of the corpse, the foul smell gradually dissipated. Jiang Xue searched around again and found Mu Qiancheng’s military dagger.

Looking at the dagger on the ground, Jiang Xue felt both pleased and worried. She was pleased that Mu Qiancheng wasn’t there, and should be safe. But worried about where he might be and whether he was in trouble.

Meanwhile, in Taoyuan Village, Mu Qiancheng still hadn’t awakened, while Luo Lan stayed by his side, talking to him, hoping to awaken him.

To help Mu Qiancheng wake up soon, she had been reading medical books for the past few days. Yesterday, she finally found something in a medical book: speaking to the Living Dead could awaken them.

So, putting down the book, she rushed to Mu Qiancheng’s room and started talking to him, trying to wake him up.

However, no matter what she said, Mu Qiancheng remained completely still, showing no sign of waking up. This left Luo Lan feeling a bit defeated, and somewhat disappointed.

Luo Feng came in carrying medicine and saw his daughter’s haggard look, knowing she hadn’t rested the night before. His heart broke for her and he said, "Lan’er, why are you putting yourself through this hardship?"

Although his daughter had said that there were no romantic feelings towards the man lying there, her actions made it hard for him to believe otherwise.
