Outside Mo Village.

Moyun Forest is located to the east of Mo Village.

After walking on the mountain road for a while, Mo Chi stopped.

"This shoe print!"

There are two small shoe prints on the mud.

"Is it the little tiger baby's?" Luo Xingchen asked.

"It belongs to Little Huwa, but why wasn't it on the way here? It's only here, and there doesn't seem to be any in front of it."

Mo Chi looked solemn, with a strange look in his eyes.

"There's more than one person. Little Huwa probably didn't come out on his own." Zi Yan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said.

"Master Zi, why are you so sure?" Mo Chi asked doubtfully.

"On the way we came, it's not that there were no shoe prints, but the shoe prints were too shallow. If you don't look carefully, you can't see them at all."

Zi Yan took out a cloth bag, grabbed a handful of green dust from it, and sprinkled it towards the way it came.

Not long after, many light green shoe prints began to appear on the ground.

Only then did Mo Chi and others really believe it.

"Without Lord Zi's medicinal powder, we really wouldn't be able to tell. After a rain, the shoe prints will completely disappear." Mo Chi's face was heavy.

It's not a good thing if Zi Yan's words are verified.

You must know that in this way, the disappearance of the little tiger baby is not his personal behavior, but that he was taken away.

"This shoe print doesn't look like a man's, and it's so shallow. Could it be an ordinary person's shoe print?" Mo Chi asked.

"Only a master of Qinggong can make the shoe print so shallow. Looking at the size and shape of the shoe print, it is more likely that the shoe print belongs to a woman. Of course, it may also be a short man." Zi Yan said thoughtfully.

road.

"Qinggong is so good, I'm afraid I won't be able to match you." Mo Chi frowned.

"Village Chief Mo, let A Niu and the others go back. Those who don't know martial arts won't be able to help, and may even become the other party's hostage." Zi Yan said calmly.

Mo Chi gritted his teeth and made a decisive decision: "Aniu, take the others back and tell my father to organize the manpower and seal off the entire village to prevent anyone from going out or coming in."

"Ah, let's go back first."

A Niu nodded in agreement, and the others didn't say anything and followed A Niu back.

Luo Xingchen admired Mo Chi very much. Those people listened to Mo Chi and went back to the village without asking any more questions.

Perhaps this is the authority of the village chief.

Everyone had left, and only Mo Chi, Luo Xingchen and Zi Yan were left.

Mo Chi looked at Luo Xingchen and said, "Mr. Luo, you and Master Zi should go back. I can handle this matter myself."

"Village Chief Mo's words have gone unnoticed. We also want to do our part!"

"There is no need to worry about us. We are all martial arts practitioners and have the ability to protect ourselves. Don't worry, Village Chief Mo." Luo Xingchen said.

"Okay, let's go together."

Since Luo Xingchen and Zi Yan talked about it for this reason, Mo Chi had no choice but to agree.

The three of them then walked forward, Zi Yan said: "I'll go forward, I can see the shoe prints on the ground."

Neither Luo Xingchen nor Mo Chi could see the shoe prints on the ground unless the purple smoke kept sprinkling green powder on the ground along the way.

But that's impossible.

The special fluorescent powder Ziyan has on hand is in limited quantity and is used for marking, not wasted in such places.

Zi Yan walked in front, speeding up a bit.

Ziyan could determine the direction of the shoe prints with just one glance.

There is a big gap between each two shoe prints, which shows that the owner of the shoe prints has extremely exquisite light skills, which can be said to be able to step on the snow without leaving a trace.

There are not many people in the entire world who can do this, and most of them are old-school martial arts masters who have been famous for a long time.

"Is Mo Yunlin ahead?"

Zi Yan saw that after rounding a bend, there were endless mountains and forests ahead.

"Yes, that's Mo Yunlin." Mo Chi nodded.

"The shoe prints disappeared." Zi Yan frowned.

"What should we do?" Mo Chi was a little confused. The situation was so complicated that he was at a loss.

"Let me take a closer look." Zi Yan looked around.

"Based on the location where the shoe prints disappeared, it is very likely that this person entered the woods."

Zi Yan's body swayed, she grabbed the branches with both hands, and in a few clicks, she was already standing on the top of a tall pine tree.

"That's right, you entered the woods and left from the trees." Zi Yan said loudly.

"Sister Ziyan, has that person left the woods?" Luo Xingchen raised his head and asked.

"Definitely left."

Zi Yan jumped down from the tree, and there was already a piece of bark in her hand.

"Chief Mo, look at the shoe prints on the bark of this tree." Zi Yan said.

If you look carefully with the ink ruler, you can see that there is half a shoe print on the bark, which is the front half.

"Originally, this shoe print should not have appeared, but the man walked through the mud, and the soles of his shoes were stained with mud after all... Some of the wet mud was imprinted on the bark of the tree, forming this incomplete footprint."

Zi Yan pursed her lips and then asked: "Village Chief Mo, do you have any enemies? Otherwise, why would that person kidnap the little tiger baby?"

"There can't be enemies. We in Mo Village don't have enemies outside, and my family is even more kind to others. Even if there are some minor conflicts, people will not kidnap the little tiger baby."

Mo Chi thought hard, but couldn't think of any particular enemy.

"What's behind Moyunlin? Can we leave the Yudai Mountains? I'm worried that the man took the little tiger baby out of the mountains and left."

Purple smoke.

"Yes, there is a trail leading outside behind Mo Yunlin." Mo Chi's body was shaking as he thought that his son might have been taken away.

How should I explain to my wife and father when I go back now?

"There is really a road leading to the outside of Yudai Mountain." Zi Yan said.

"It really does exist. It's a secret passage. Not many people know about it." Mo Chi said dejectedly.

"Take us to have a look, maybe we can see some clues." Zi Yan said.

"Okay, I'll take you there."

Mo Chi stepped into the woods first. He raised his hand to take off the bow hanging on his back, took out an arrow, put it on the bow, and walked inside step by step.

There is a vague road in the woods, like a snake, winding and extending inside.

It's just that both sides of the road are covered with thorns, and many of them have climbed onto the road.

"This is the road that the hunters from the villages near us use. Every once in a while, someone comes over to clean it up. We take turns coming from different villages."

Mo Chi explained as he walked.

"Do they all know the secret passage on the other side?" Zi Yan asked.

"A few people know about it, but most people who know about it won't tell anyone. They are mainly worried that outsiders will sneak into the mountains through that road and kill all the prey..."

"We mountain people depend on prey for a living, and the rice fields we plant are not high in rice yields. Farming alone cannot support us." Mo Chi explained the reason.
