Chapter 7442 puppet
Luo Xingchen also glanced at the passage before retreating from it.
But he was left with many questions in his mind.
Those passages look like they are made of stones.
The stones are very tightly connected.
And the passage extends inward for an unknown amount of geometry.
If, as Mo Chi said, this secret passage leads to the outside of Yudai Mountain, this would be a big deal.
Such a large amount of work may not be completed by ordinary people.
In the whole world, only one family can complete this kind of project.
This family is the royal family.
The royal family can use the power of the whole country to build it, but even so, such a huge project cannot be completed overnight.
"Sister Ziyan, is there any record in the nearby county's county annals? Such a big project cannot appear out of thin air." Luo Xingchen asked.
"It's possible. I'll send a message later and have someone check it out." Zi Yan thinks this is a good idea. If relevant records can be found, many dangers may be avoided.
"Fengle County, there are many roads from here... Will it waste time to check the county annals?" Mo Chi was a little worried.
County annals are a collection of historical records of a county. In many cases, they not only record records of this dynasty, but also records of previous dynasties.
Even in some places, the county government suffered from military disasters, and the stored county records can be traced back for more than a thousand years.
"We don't need to go in person."
Zi Yan smiled slightly.
"Chief of Mo Village, you don't have to worry, we will stay in Mo Village. As for checking the county records, you will understand when we return to Mo Village."
"Village Chief Mo, after you return, you must find your enemy as soon as possible. This is the top priority."
Luo Xingchen said.
With half-belief and half-doubt, the three of them walked back along the original path.
After entering Moyun Forest, suddenly, three gleaming flying knives, in the shape of a glyph, quickly rushed towards Mo Chi.
The direction of the flying knife is aimed at the back of the ink ruler.
Mo Chi didn't have time to turn around or dodge.
At this moment, Zi Yan stretched out her hand and caught the three cold lights in her hand.
"Sister Ziyan, your hands." Luo Xingchen couldn't help exclaiming.
"Don't worry, I brought gloves." Zi Yan said.
Luo Xingchen suddenly remembered that Ziyan had a strange silkworm glove, which was not afraid of water, fire, or swords. Moreover, it was a transparent glove. If you put it on your hands, you would hardly be able to tell if you don’t look carefully.
Zi Yan looked around cautiously, and saw a figure disappearing quickly above the trees.
"The Qinggong is so fast, we can't catch up." Zi Yan said.
"He dared to fight back, that person is very courageous..." Luo Xingchen held his chin with his fingers and said thoughtfully, "I saw the figure of that person, she should be a woman... Why does it feel familiar to me?
?”
Luo Xingchen felt a vague sense of familiarity.
As for what he was familiar with, he couldn't tell now.
"Hurry up and go back. If you're late, something might happen again."
Zi Yan glanced at him and said: "Xingchen, you lead the way from the front and pay attention to protection. Village Chief Mo, you walk in the middle and I will be at the rear."
Among the three, the weakest is Mo Chi.
If Mo Chi died in an accident, the blame would most likely be placed on Zi Yan and Luo Xingchen.
After this encounter, the three of them sped up and returned to the village, and at the same time strengthened their protection.
They finally left Moyunlin without being assassinated again.
Before returning to the village, Luo Xingchen saw Mo Chi's younger brother Mo Gui standing at the entrance of the village, looking very anxious, pacing back and forth.
When he saw Mo Chi, Luo Xingchen and Zi Yan all back, a hint of joy flashed across Mo Chi's face and he immediately came to greet them.
"Brother, have you found the little tiger baby?"
Mo Gui looked at Mo Chi in confusion, Luo Xingchen and Zi Yan's front, back and left... He didn't see the little tiger baby.
"No, Mo Chi, let's go back quickly. I have something to ask dad." Mo Chi sighed and began to urge.
"Dad is at home, we're just going to ask."
Mo Chi originally wanted to ask a few more questions, but seeing Mo Chi so anxious, he knew that he had no intention of answering his questions, so he simply followed behind without saying anything.
The old village chief, Mo Chi, and Mo Chi have never separated, and there is no need to separate.
Mo Chi and Mo Gui's biological mother has passed away many years ago. Now they only have an old man to support, and they basically don't have much pressure in life.
Therefore, the old village chief's house is located in the center of the village and is the best built.
After finally returning to the village, Luo Xingchen could see from a distance that the old village chief was leaning on his chair.
"Dad, I couldn't find the little tiger baby."
Mo Chi lowered his head with a heavy expression.
"It's okay if you can't find him. Do you think the villain will let you find him easily?" the old village chief coughed lightly.
"Dad, do we have enemies in our family?"
Mo Chi's eyes lit up and he asked.
"Yes, our family has many enemies, but only one person can steal the little tiger baby without anyone noticing." The old village chief sighed, and there seemed to be a few more wrinkles on his face.
"Who?" Mo Chi asked.
"Ah Qing, the adopted daughter of the old man." The old village chief seemed to have aged a bit.
Both Mo Chi and Mo Gui were stunned, not knowing what to say.
"Master Luo, Master Zi, let's go to the main room, and I will show you something." The old village chief stood up from his chair, his back hunched.
Luo Xingchen and Zi Yan said nothing and followed the old village chief to the main room.
This is the main room where they eat. There is an incense table inside, and the little tiger baby hides under the incense table.
After the old village chief walked in, he lifted the cloth on the incense table.
"Mo Chi, come and bring the box to the table." The old village chief said.
Mo Chi walked over quickly, squatted down, held the box with both hands, took it out and placed it on the table.
A bunch of keys appeared in the old village chief's hand...
With a series of clicks, the five secret locks above were opened one by one.
The old village chief opened the box and revealed the items inside.
"This is Buhu?"
Everyone could clearly see the items inside, but what was inside was a lifelike cloth tiger!
"This is the tiger puppet."
The old village chief reached out and took the tiger out of the box, then placed it on the table.
He patted the right side of the tiger's body with his palm, and then something strange happened.
The tiger's eyes glowed faintly red. Then, the tiger actually opened its legs and started walking on the table. It moved very flexibly, like a real big cat.
"Tiger puppet, is this really a dead thing?" Mo Chi said in shock.
"Naturally it is a dead thing, but there is an extremely exquisite design inside. This is something passed down from our ancestors."
