The back garden of the city lord's mansion.

After Gu Chan followed Ye Tianyang over, the two of them walked directly behind a tall rockery.

Ye Tianyang stretched out his hand and pressed a protruding stone on the rockery wall. With a click, a stone door automatically opened from both sides, revealing a dark passage leading downwards.

Gu Chan said curiously, "City Lord Ye, how do you make this stone gate mechanism? Teach me! When I return to Jiangnan City, I will also build one in my back garden."

"Why, your Tiancang country doesn't have people who understand mechanical engineering?" Ye Tianyang said arrogantly.

Gu Chan shook her head.

She had been in Tiancang Country for quite some time, but there had never been anyone around her who knew about mechanical devices, so she had no idea how these devices were made.

Ye Tianyang laughed and said, "If you are really capable of helping me cure this strange disease, when you return to Tiancang Country, I will give you a book of mechanical secrets, and you can take it back and study it yourself."

"Then I would like to thank City Lord Ye first." Gu Chan clasped his fists to express his gratitude.

"Don't thank me so quickly. You still need the ability to help me cure this strange disease." Ye Tianyang said with a faint smile.

After saying that, he took the lead and walked into the passage.

Gu Chan curled her lips and followed him in silently.

As soon as the two entered the passage, the stone door closed automatically with a click. It was indeed quite magical. The principle behind this remains to be studied.

This downward passage is not short, it is over a thousand meters long, winding downwards to a huge dungeon built below.

After Gu Chan followed Ye Tianyang into the dungeon, she discovered that there were many people imprisoned in the dungeon, both men and women, and each of them looked different from ordinary people.

Gu Chan said as she walked, "City Lord Ye, who are these people imprisoned?"

"They are all extremely vicious people. Some of them are from Yexing, and some are from other countries. My father has spent a lot of effort over the years to catch them." Ye Tianyang explained.

"Then why did your father arrest them?" Gu Chan asked curiously.

"Each of them has his own unique abilities. If we can pry out their abilities and use them to train our own people, wouldn't that be equivalent to having a powerful team? And such a team will be enough to save our lives at the critical moment." Ye Tianyang explained this truth.

Gu Chan listened and nodded silently, feeling somewhat grateful to him in her heart.

If she hadn't come to Yaoye City this time, she wouldn't have met Ye Tianyang, nor would she have learned these things from him.

For so long, she has been struggling and treading on thin ice. Isn't it because there are no powerful and capable people around her to help her?

From now on, if she can train a group of subordinates who are loyal to her, then will she be able to stop being so flustered as before?

Thinking of this, Gu Chan secretly made a decision in her heart that when she returned to Jiangnan City, she would start to cultivate talented people.

Just as Gu Chan was thinking this, the two of them had already arrived outside a secret room.

This secret room is not big, only about the size of a storage room. The main door is a heavy black iron door, and there is only an iron bed inside.

Ye Tianyang reached into his sleeve, took out the key, opened the black iron door, and took Gu Chan in.

As soon as the two of them entered the secret room, Gu Chan was stunned.

I saw someone lying on the iron bed... half-pulled out...

Yes! You heard it right! It means half of the body!

This was the lower body of a man, broken at the waist, with only half of the body lying motionless on the iron bed. What was even more embarrassing was that this half of the body was naked, without even pants on. At a glance, it was truly exposed.

Gu Chan's face turned red with embarrassment on the spot, and she turned her head away silently.

Ye Tianyang walked to the iron bed, tilted his head to look at Gu Chan and said, "Why is your face so red? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"No...it's okay...it's just the first time I see a corpse like this...I feel a little uncomfortable." Gu Chan said intermittently.

In order to hide her embarrassment, she had to muster up the courage to walk over, suppressing her shyness and looking at the half-body in front of her.

Ye Tianyang frowned as he watched, he really couldn't understand why Gu Chan was in this state.

But he was not in the mood to think about these things, and pointed at the waist of the man and said, "Look at his waist."

"What's wrong with his waist?" Gu Chan asked.

"You'll know when you see it." Ye Tianyang said.

Gu Chan tilted her head and looked at it carefully. It was at this glance that she was completely stunned.

Normally, after a person is cut in half, there should be a large cross-section of the abdomen, and the intestines and stomach should be visible, but this half of the body is a bit strange. The cross-section of his entire abdomen is perfectly healed, and the skin is very smooth and flat.

Gu Chan reached out and touched it, and could still feel the warm touch of the cross-section of the skin.

Ye Tianyang said in a deep voice, "How is it? Amazing, isn't it? Let me tell you, this half body is not a corpse. It is still alive. Not only will it not rot, it can walk and excrete normally, and it can also eat with its belly button."

"Ah? Is it so magical?" Gu Chan said in surprise.

"Yes, this is caused by a strange disease. The original owner of this half body was one of my extremely powerful subordinates. After he got the strange disease, he suddenly disappeared. When I sent people to find him again, only his lower body was left, and his entire upper body was gone." Ye Tianyang said with a gloomy face.

Gu Chan stood beside the iron bed, looking at the half-body in front of her with a look of disbelief.

She didn't understand how this person could be cut in half and still be alive. What kind of disease was this? How could it be so miraculous?

Ye Tianyang added, "Next, you should investigate carefully! I will go to deal with my business first. I will send someone to guard the door. If you need anything, you can tell her."

"Okay, then you go and get busy! I'll study it." Gu Chan nodded.

Ye Tianyang turned and walked towards the door.

Gu Chan suddenly waved her hand and said, "Wait."

"Is there anything else?" Ye Tianyang asked.

"First ask someone to send him a pair of pants to wear. It makes me uncomfortable to see him naked like this." Gu Chan said awkwardly.

Ye Tianyang said unhappily, "We are all men, what's wrong with that? Have you never seen a man without pants?"

"Stop talking nonsense. It's just a matter of putting a pair of pants on him. Why are you talking so much?" Gu Chan pretended to be angry.

Ye Tianyang shook his head speechlessly, did not argue with her anymore, and immediately went out and told a maid to bring a pair of trousers for the half-naked body to wear.

Afterwards, the little maid stood guard at the door, waiting for Gu Chan's orders.

Gu Chan stayed in the secret room and studied this half body.
