Chapter 256 I'll Run Away When I Get Pregnant
Su Nuan chuckled, "Secret? I'm not interested. If you want to tell me, tell me. If you don't want to tell me, it doesn't matter."
"But if it makes me happy, I'm happy to help you."
The boy was anxious but didn't say anything. His eyes flickered as if he was thinking.
After a moment, he said, "The demon said he has mastered the method of immortality, and he needs to take the medicine from the body of a young man."
This sparked Su Nuan's interest, and she asked, "Medicine lead? Have you ever had a medicine lead extracted?"
The boy blushed and nodded, "Yes..."
Su Nuan could tell from his expression that this medicine was something shameful, and it was definitely not flesh and blood.
Although these teenagers were tied up, it can be seen that they were well-fed, with delicate skin and healthy internal organs, which proves that their blood was not drawn or their flesh was not cut.
Su Nuan sighed, "They are all crooked ways, there is no such thing as immortality."
"He's already been sent to this shabby place, so why would he want immortality? To prolong his suffering? How foolish of him!"
The boy wanted to laugh at Su Nuan's words, but he felt so miserable that he couldn't laugh, and his expression looked a little weird.
Su Nuan was pleased by his expression and said with a smile, "Even if I let you go, you won't be able to escape. This northern land is full of plains, and it's the lean season now, so you either can't find food or you'll be used as food."
The boys' eyes dimmed instantly, revealing despair.
Su Nuan comforted him, "You're not going to die, and you still have food and drink, so don't think too much and let go of your so-called dignity."
The boys were very stubborn and ignored Su Nuan.
Su Nuan chuckled, "It seems that you have never suffered hardship, so I won't bother to persuade you."
After saying that, she stuffed the cloth ball back into the boy's mouth.
Life is hard for everyone, so sometimes we have to give up some things.
Su Nuan returned to the cave on the cliff and stood outside listening.
The city lord said, "Tell them to stop what they are doing and build the place where we live."
After a pause, he continued, "I haven't looked carefully today. If there's a ready-made house, let us stay there first. We're already here, we can't go back."
Cheng Feng said, "Then the Lord City Lord wants to defend the empty city? After all, building a city is no small matter."
The city lord smiled and said, "There are so many people. I brought more than fifty people with me, so together we have nearly three hundred people, which is enough to build the city."
"You also know that these exiled prisoners are not human beings, but slaves. No one will care if they die."
"Once Hancheng is rebuilt, our good days will be just around the corner!"
Su Nuan really wanted to grab a handful of melon seeds and crack them while listening. This fat guy was really cruel. He wanted to tire these people in the north to death.
The people in Xiangyang Village are not criminals. Doesn’t he care about their lives?
Cheng Feng actually asked this question, "City Lord, there are villagers here, not exiled prisoners."
The city lord sneered, "What villagers? In my eyes, you are all slaves."
Cheng Feng was silent for a moment and then said, "Sir, I have an idea, but I don't know whether I should tell you or not."
The city lord became interested and asked, "What's the idea?"
Cheng Feng said: "Why don't we show kindness first and then employ people."
The city lord asked in confusion, "How do you show favor first and then employ people? Explain it in detail."
Cheng Feng laughed and said, "Your Excellency should first come up with a fake imperial edict, saying that the emperor ordered them to build a city, so they were freed from slavery and became civilians."
"These people will surely be filled with gratitude and work tirelessly. Once the city is built, won't their life or death be decided by your words?"
"However, I do not recommend rebuilding in Hancheng. It is an unlucky place. After all, a whole city has died there."
The city lord took a deep breath and asked, "Is everyone in that city dead?"
Cheng Feng muttered, "That's right. The howling of ghosts and wolves at night is terrifying. Otherwise, why would my subordinates tear down the city wall and rebuild somewhere else?"
"Actually, this place is quite nice. We've already planned the city walls, houses, and streets. So, let's build the city here."
He thought for a moment and continued to persuade: "Sir, this place has water in front and mountains behind, it is a treasure trove. Maybe it won't be long before you will be promoted and rich, and you can return to the capital to enjoy life."
No one who comes to the North wants to stay here forever, so when the city lord heard Cheng Feng say this, he was somewhat tempted.
Cheng Feng added, "Your Excellency may have seen the blood on the cliff. We just had a great battle here, killing many barbarians. They won't come to harass us again in the short term, but we can't guarantee that other barbarians won't come."
"So we must build the city as quickly as possible, so it's better to talk about the favor sooner rather than later."
The city lord didn't say anything, seeming to be thinking.
The space spirit sent a message to Su Nuan, "Cheng Feng is really bad, but I like him, hehe..."
Su Nuan also felt that Cheng Feng was really bad. If the city lord had not come and followed Ling Cang's benevolent supervision, it would take three to five years to build the city.
Only a supervisor like the city lord can force the villagers to work faster, which will definitely increase efficiency several times. If he secretly provides some conveniences, the city can be built before the New Year.
When the time comes, if the people have any dissatisfaction, they will only hate the city lord, not Ling Cang.
When the city is built, Ling Cang will kill the city lord for saving people, which is exactly what the people want!
The space spirit knew Su Nuan's thoughts and said, "You are not a good person either."
Su Nuan was not angry, and smiled: "I am a human, how can I make things?"
"Others who exploit the people don't care about their lives or food, but I didn't say I didn't care."
"I treat the sick and deliver food to the hungry under the banner of Ling Cang. Don't you think this is bad?"
The Space Spirit sighed, "Alright, no one is as bad as you, but why don't you become the city lord?"
Su Nuan asked back: "Why should I be the city lord?"
The space spirit chuckled and said, "Being the city lord, being a local emperor, with beauties everywhere, isn't that good?"
Su Nuan said disdainfully, "No, now I've figured it out. I can fight myself and make money myself. Why do I have to get married and find a father to serve me?"
"If there's anything wrong, it's that I can't have children alone."
"But is this a problem? The belly is mine. I have the final say on whether I want to have a baby or not. When the conditions are good in the future, I will get pregnant and run away."
The space spirit was dumbfounded. This was over. Aren't the ancients said to be very conservative? How could he be so unrestrained?
Su Nuan continued, "Didn't you say I was still young? That's why I don't think about men. I only think about what kind of life I want to live in the future."
The space spirit nodded, "Yes, it's time to think about it. After all, time flies by in the blink of an eye, and a thousand years is just a blink of an eye."
When Su Nuan heard it say this, a question popped up in her mind, so she asked, "Space Spirit, how old are you?"
