Chapter 330 - 181: Nightmare Town, Heavenly Fragrance
In life, there comes a time for birth and death, with no need to be startled by honor or disgrace.
The corpses before Xu Qing seemed like scrolls of paintings unfurling, whether they were high officials and noblemen, wandering rogues, or just peddlers, prisoners, and convicts.
To him, they were all the protagonists on the stage, and once they finished performing their final act of life, they would step down and merge into the world of dust and earthly affairs.
In the cold room, Xu Qing took out a miniature Box Garden, just about to clean the room when he suddenly noticed an extra coffin with an open lid inside the Box Garden.
Inside the coffin lay a female corpse clad in a robe of five-colored bats and dragons and phoenixes.
When did a female corpse appear in his Box Garden?
Xu Qing, who often forgot about corpses, was startled for a moment before remembering that he had rushed into the Imperial Mausoleum, eager for seclusion, and had casually thrown the tomb’s owner along with the coffin into the Box Garden.
That tomb seemed to be the grave of an Empress.
What is a pleasant surprise? Like finding bits of silver forgotten in a coat pocket months ago, only to have them fall out while washing clothes.
When hardships weigh heavy and hunger looms, forcing you to trade the only egg-laying hen at home for rice and flour, then someone approaches you in the market, saying that last month when you went to the capital for exams, you passed as a scholar, and now everyone is gathered at your doorstep awaiting your return to celebrate!
A chance gain of good news or wealth is called a pleasant surprise!
At the moment, Xu Qing, who had long forgotten about the mausoleum’s corpse, was utterly delighted to find the extra female corpse in the Box Garden.
