Mo Village.

The old village chief slapped the tiger puppet on the back, causing the tiger puppet to stop walking slowly on the table.

The red light in the tiger puppet's eye sockets slowly dissipated and returned to black color.

"The most important thing is a map inside the tiger puppet. This map was handed down from our ancestors in Mo Village..."

"The ancestor of Mo Village was a genius in the Mo family. He reached the pinnacle of machine puppetry and created many techniques of his own. But later he could not find a qualified successor and his descendants could not inherit it, so he transferred what he had learned throughout his life and his

Some of the most difficult puppetry and mechanical skills that I created were written in special animal skins and placed in an ancient tomb."

"The map inside the tiger puppet is exactly the map of the location of the ancient tomb." The old village chief said.

"How many years ago were the ancestors of Mo Village living from now?" Luo Xingchen asked.

Time is the most ruthless. If it had been too long ago, any ancient tomb might have been destroyed by the changes in the mountains and rivers, or disappeared underground due to changes in the terrain, and could never be found again.

"About five hundred years," the old village chief said.

"If it's five hundred years, it's not that long. This map is probably valuable." Luo Xingchen said.

"Aqing wants to take the map, but she doesn't know where it is..."

The old village chief paused for a moment and continued: "This box was recently taken out by me. It was placed in a secret place in the back mountain. I didn't tell anyone."

"No wonder you brought a box home a while ago."

Mo Chi suddenly said.

When the old village chief said this, Luo Xingchen and Zi Yan thought of someone at the same time.

Puppet master!

Back in Iron Tooth City, they met the puppet master. Of course, the one who had the most contact with the puppet master was Ouyang Heng.

At that time, Zi Yan and Luo Xingchen knew that the puppet master was a woman.

However, since the dust of Iron Fang City settled and Princess Qiqige became the new Iron Fang Queen, the Puppet Master has disappeared without a trace.

Could it be that Ah Qing is related to the Puppet Master?

Obviously, the old village chief may know the truth.

"A-Qing is your adopted daughter? But we haven't seen any A-Qing since we were children." Mo Chi asked doubtfully.

"That's because Ah Qing lives in Fengle County. Every few days, I will go to the county to give her some money and food. In the county, I find a mother-in-law to take care of her. In addition, I also find a husband for her to teach her.

Read and write... for six whole years..."

"When she was sixteen, she left suddenly and left a letter. I knew something was wrong."

"She blamed me for the death of her parents and said she would seek revenge in the future." The old village chief lamented.

"Old village chief, where did this Ah Qing come from?" Luo Xingchen couldn't help but ask.

"This starts with the ancestors of Mo Village." The old village chief said.

"Back then, my ancestor pioneered the new generation of the Mo family's mechanism technique, called the Puppet Technique. He accepted several disciples, but the most talented disciple among them had evil intentions. When our ancestor discovered it later, he expelled him from the school.

Many years later, the descendants of our ancestors learned that that disciple was domineering in the world and was called the Puppet Master..."

"The Puppet Master line has been passed down from generation to generation, and in order to avoid the pursuit of the Puppet Master line, the descendants of our ancestors hid in the mountains and were not discovered for hundreds of years."

"But for hundreds of years, rumors of the puppet master have been circulating in the world."

"Thirty years ago, a young man from Mo Village, named Mo Kui, had been close to me since childhood. When Mo Kui was eighteen years old, he went to Tai'an City and encountered a contemporary puppet master. He was actually killed by the puppet master.

After being accepted as a disciple and taught by the puppet master, Mo Kui wanted to seize the complete puppetry skills left by the ancestors of the Mo family."

"He tried to harm me several times, but in the end, he suffered the consequences and was used by his master and puppet master. He died an untimely death. Before he died, he entrusted his daughter to me."

The old village chief sighed deeply.

"Is your daughter Ah Qing?"

Luo Xingchen said.

"Yes, Mo Kui's daughter is Ah Qing. After Mo Kui and his wife died unexpectedly, I picked up Ah Qing in Tai'an City and brought her to Fengle County... Fengle County is close to Mo Village, so I can take care of her.

.”

"Who would have thought that after raising her for six years, Ah Qing would still turn away from me."

"This is the old man's fault."

The old village chief stretched out his hand and wiped his eyes.

"Who did Ah Qing go with back then? Could it be Mo Kui's master, the old puppet master?" Luo Xingchen said.

"No, at that time, the old puppet master was already dead. It was most likely one of his disciples, but I don't know who that person was. Mo Kui didn't tell me." The old village chief shook his head.

"Maybe Mo Kui had already reserved a hand when he entrusted his daughter to you." Luo Xingchen frowned.

"Not just one hand, but at least several hands," said the old village chief.

"It seems that the old village chief knows it well."

"The old man only figured it out later. Mo Kui had left a backup plan, not only for A Qing, but also for his junior brother. When would he take A Qing away and tell her the so-called 'truth'?

It's all under his arrangement." The old village chief's eyes were a little desolate.

Back then, he truly raised A-Qing as his daughter. Who knew something like that would happen.

And to this day, the hatred of the past has continued to the present and to his grandchildren.

"That Mo Kui is really out of his mind, and he even tricked you into dying." Luo Xingchen finally figured it out. If this person is too kind-hearted, he will be bullied.

People say good things when they are about to die.

Why do some people, even if they are about to die, still have such vicious thoughts in their heads?

"It's all over, I admit it. It's been more than ten years, and Ah Qing is back again." The old village chief sighed.

"She came back after studying. She has enough strength and maybe has a backer. She wants to come back for revenge, take the map and find the complete puppet technique." Luo Xingchen said.

"With Ah Qing's puppet master strength, it's not difficult to destroy the entire Mo Village, right? Why do you want to steal the little tiger baby quietly?" Zi Yan asked.

"She can't destroy Mo Village. We, Mo Village, still have some strength... Although our force is not high, we have traps and formations in Mo Village." The old village chief said.

"I see, then she will come to our door sooner or later. We can wait in the village."

Since this was the case, Luo Xingchen thought that there was no need to go out to find the puppet master's location.

Sooner or later, she will come to the door again and use the little tiger baby as a bargaining chip to ask for the map.

"She can figure out Mo Village's mechanisms and formations, but she can't figure out the strength we have." Zi Yan said lightly.

"Then thank you for your help, sir. Mo Village will definitely be rewarded later." The old village chief bent down and saluted.

But halfway through the bend, he was supported by Luo Xingchen.
