Mo Jiuye is not worried that Mr. Simeng will wake up immediately. He knows better than anyone the power of his wife's anesthesia gun, which can at least make people severely comatose for several hours.
Since no abnormalities were found in the surrounding furniture and walls, the only thing left was the wooden bed in the room.
He lifted up all the quilts on the bed, and sure enough, the clues were revealed.
There are obvious signs of looseness in the wooden boards at the head of the bed.
Mo Jiuye stepped forward and lifted up the wooden board, revealing a black hole that could accommodate one person.
Based on past experience, such a place is likely to be a passage to the outside world.
The passage was close to the bed board on the other side, and there was a small dark compartment. The light was just right, and Mo Jiuye could see several small porcelain bottles placed in the dark compartment at a glance.
Needless to say, these small porcelain bottles contain all kinds of poisons. As for the poisonous insects, they would never be placed here.
Because voodoo farmers regard voodoos as treasures, no matter how many they keep, they will always carry them with them.
There were more than a dozen large and small porcelain bottles. Mo Jiuye pulled off a sheet and wrapped these small porcelain bottles in them.
After sorting out these things, Mo Jiuye did not rush in to check. Although Mr. Simeng was unconscious, he was still lying outside. Once he was discovered, all his efforts would be wasted.
Therefore, when he enters the secret passage, he must take Mr. Simeng with him. No matter where the exit of the secret passage is, he must not give the other party any chance to escape.
Entering the secret passage, there were many uncertain factors, and Mo Jiuye did not dare to be careless at all.
The most important thing is that the fifth brother and the sixth brother are still waiting for him outside the Ninth Prince's Mansion. If he does not meet up with the two brothers in time, they will definitely think that something has happened to him, so if he does anything impulsive, the gain will outweigh the loss. .
Thinking of this, Mo Jiuye picked up the pen and paper on the table and started writing——
[Fifth brother and sixth brother, everything is going well. I found a secret passage. I will go in and check it out first. I will ask Xiaobai to send you the latest location later. 】
After writing the note, he folded it into a small paper roll, then left the room and called Xiaobai.
He tied the note to Xiaobai's leg and stroked its snow-white feathers.
"Xiao Bai, send the note to Brother Five and Brother Six, and then come over to me, you know?"
This was the first time that Mo Jiuye asked Xiaobai to deliver a letter. To express his true feelings, he just said a few simple words like this, and he was really not sure whether Xiaobai could understand it.
But he doesn't have to worry about Xiaobai's traces. His wife said that once the little thing recognizes its owner, it can find it no matter where the owner is, unless it encounters an accident and is trapped and unable to escape.
Watching Xiaobai flying away, Mo Jiuye came to Mr. Simeng.
He ripped off the hood he wore on his head, and what he saw was a face similar to his own age.
Although this face is not very good-looking, it is still quite conspicuous among the crowd.
Coupled with his white hair, it is completely consistent with what Yunli said about his master's white hair and childlike appearance.
Facing the culprit who persecuted his father and brother, Mo Jiuye wanted to cut him into pieces. However, his reason told him that this was not possible at the moment.
He suppressed the anger surging in his heart and searched Mr. Simeng's body first.
Sure enough, he had all his precious Gu insects in his arms, six in total.
Mo Jiuye did not dare to be careless when dealing with these living creatures. If there was a mother Gu controlling his father, eldest brother, and second brother among them, if something went wrong, the consequences would be unimaginable.
So he also imitated the behavior of those who raised Gu, once again tore off a sheet, wrapped the porcelain bottle and carefully put it into his arms.
Turning back to Mr. Simeng, Mo Jiuye roughly picked him up and threw him into the hole.
There is a section of the cave entrance that goes straight down, about two meters long.
With a dull falling sound, Mr. Simeng was thrown to the ground, and Mo Jiuye jumped down immediately.
The secret passage was relatively dark, so he held Mr. Simeng in one hand and used a flashlight to illuminate it.
After walking like this for almost half an hour, there was a faint light ahead.
Mo Jiuye knew that the power of the secret passage was not far away.
He continued to move forward, and soon a wooden door appeared in front of him.
It was said to be a wooden door, but there was no handle at all. Mo Jiuye deduced that it should be something like a cabinet, which needed to be pulled back and forth to open.
As expected, he only pulled it left and right twice, and the wooden door showed signs of loosening.
He pushed slightly to the left and the door opened.
The dazzling light shone in instantly, making Mo Jiuye blind for a moment.
But soon, he adjusted his vision.
What you enter is a spacious and bright room with no furnishings except a wardrobe that serves as a secret door to a secret passage.
Mo Jiuye didn't care too much and threw Mr. Simeng on the ground, while he walked cautiously towards the door.
Gently pushing open the door, a mansion appeared in front of you.
The courtyard is in sharp contrast to the cleanliness of the rooms. Weeds can be seen everywhere. It is obvious that this place is deserted.
However, the inconspicuous traces spreading towards the house directly opposite the door caught Mo Jiuye's attention.
It's not really deserted here, but there are people walking around occasionally.
Because he could clearly see that some weeds had been cut off.
It was obvious that these were traces of people trampling on them.
But it's normal to think about it. Since Mr. Simeng can live in a courtyard with an underground passage like this, there is nothing wrong with leaving here when something happens.
He first felt the movement around him, and then walked out of the yard after seeing that there was no danger.
After all, it was a strange place, and no matter how strong Mo Jiuye's sense of direction was, he still couldn't accurately judge where he was.
No matter what, he had to take Mr. Simeng away with him, and he had to figure out the route carefully to avoid making mistakes.
Mo Jiuye did not leave in a hurry, but used Qing Gong to fly to a high place and look around.
The scene that caught his eye was very familiar to him. When he was a child, he and Nan Qi often came here to play quietly.
It turns out that this is Qinghe, less than one mile away from the capital.
Not to mention that he had just heard the conversation between the Ninth Prince and Mr. Simeng, he could determine its intentions just by looking at the exit of the secret passage.
It was obvious that this was the escape route arranged by the Ninth Prince for himself.
It can be seen that he has kept a low profile for many years and how deep his thoughts are.
Just as he was thinking to himself, Xiaobai flew back and landed firmly on his shoulder.
Mo Jiuye subconsciously glanced at Xiaobai's leg, and the note on it was gone.
He knew that Xiaobai had successfully completed his first mission. When he was about to praise him, two figures came running towards him from far and near.
The visitors were none other than Fifth Brother and Sixth Brother.
Seeing Ninth Brother, Sixth Brother calmed his breathing and said, "Don't mention it, Fifth Brother said that you can find Ninth Brother by following this little thing, and he was really right.
However, this guy flew really fast, and our brothers were almost thrown away by it. "
