Ji Wanrong said and paused slightly again.
She suddenly remembered the damp feeling of the cabin.
It doesn't look like it's flying from the sky, it looks like it's traveling by water...
Ji Wanrong thought and suddenly raised his head: "Is there a river in the suburbs of Beijing?"
Mo Jiecheng nodded after hearing this, and then his body was shaken.
He looked at Ji Wanrong, and then nodded: "Yes, there is a river in the suburbs of Beijing, which is a branch of the river. It can directly connect to the outside world, but it is not here at the sanatorium."
After hearing the news, everyone had some thoughts in their minds.
"So, they dismantled the wooden house into pieces of wood, and then threw the wood into the river at night and let the wood flow down the river to the outskirts of Beijing?"
Shi Heng looked at Ji Wanrong and Mo Jiecheng without saying anything, and then spoke out his guess.
"When the wood reaches the outskirts of Beijing, we will ask people to fish it out of the river, and then transport it through the cave to the canyon where we were just now."
"That huge lake can also use this method."
"This can explain why they built a paradise overnight, but the surrounding trees were not cut down, and County Master Qinghui felt damp and cold after entering the house."
Feeling Shi Heng's gaze, Ji Wanrong nodded towards him: "You have the same idea as I do, and it can also explain why those footprints are so deep."
After receiving Ji Wanrong's words, Shi Heng finally felt a little relieved, but when he thought of the key behind it, his heart sank even more.
He hesitated for a long time, and then spoke to Ji Wanrong and Mo Jiecheng: "The most important thing is not this paradise built in one day, but the people in the sanatorium."
"Being able to achieve such a situation in one day shows that the power behind the King of Chu...or the Queen cannot be underestimated. There is even a well-trained, powerful martial arts force with a large scale."
Shi Heng didn't say anything unnecessary, but if the queen of a country and the prince recruit troops like this in private and form a large-scale organization, isn't this an intention to rebel?
"May I ask if His Royal Highness King Han knows about this?" Shi Heng turned to look at Mo Jie City.
Mo Jiecheng's face turned ugly after killing people. He didn't say anything, but his face turned a bit paler.
"At the same time, it is not just a matter of scale. In order to solve the current dilemma, the Queen or the King of Chu created a group of people who looked exactly like the people who were missing in the past. Even their closest family members did not find any clues... "
Shi Heng said, then paused, fearing that Ji Wanrong and Mo Jiecheng wouldn't be able to accept it, so he spoke every word very slowly.
"I suspect it's a disguise."
He said it seriously. This was a conclusion he came to after repeated deliberation. Although this conclusion seemed incredible, it was the only reason.
He was afraid that County Lord Qinghui and King Han would only think that the disguise technique was nonsense and scorn his speculation.
Just as Shi Heng was about to explain, he saw that the expressions of the two of them didn't even change, and they didn't look surprised at all.
"This is not a disguise, it's a human skin mask." Mo Jiecheng corrected him.
This time it was Shi Heng's turn to be stunned.
Mo Jiecheng snorted coldly and looked at Shi Heng, who was still talking eloquently just now, and now he was finally stunned.
"If you ask me if I knew before, I naturally know that I have seen the human skin mask a long time ago, because the queen started to assassinate me as early as two years ago after I returned to the capital."
"After I captured the assassin, I found a human skin mask on the assassin's face."
Shi Heng was shocked by Mo Jiecheng's words. Seeing that Mo Jiecheng said these words as usual, his tone even seemed a little proud, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
But he quickly grasped the meaning of Mo Jiecheng's words: "You mean, you took off the human skin mask directly on the assassin's face?"
Mo Jiecheng didn't know what he thought of, swallowed his saliva, and then nodded.
"However, the production technology of human skin masks has made great progress. I was only able to remove the human skin mask from the assassin's face in the early stage. In the later stage, the human skin mask on the assassin's face could not be removed."
Mo Jiecheng's words made Shi Heng choke, and he sighed slightly again.
Ji Wanrong was also very curious about the production process of the human skin mask. The human skin mask could be continuously improved. There must be an expert who is good at chemistry behind the scenes to guide it.
She thought of the special soil she found in the nursing home and suppressed her racing heart: "Since the wooden houses were built a long time ago, you can find the place where they took root by following the river."
"Finding where they are rooted will not only help us find out the Queen's power and purpose, but we may also be able to find out where and who made the human skin mask."
Ji Wanrong's soft voice calmed the anxious mood of everyone in the study. She then turned to look at Mo Jiecheng: "When you entered the wooden house, did you identify the type of wood used to build the wooden house?"
After hearing this, Mo Jiecheng lowered his head and pondered for a moment: "There is nothing special about this wood. It is pine wood commonly used in the north. Some people in the capital also use pine wood to build houses and make tables and chairs."
"But that wood looks familiar to me. I also have it in my palace. It's Pinus sylvestris."
"Pinus sylvestris?" Shi Heng frowned slightly after hearing this.
"Pinus sylvestris is expensive. The pine sylvestris in the palace of His Highness Prince Han was probably specially transported from afar. This wood does not grow in the capital."
"To be able to build a paradise overnight, with the wood drifting all the way without being stolen, there must be a large number of people behind it. Since there are so many people, it is impossible for everyone to have wooden houses. The Scotch pine trees were specially transported from a distance and built later. .”
"Presumably they live near the Scotch pine site."
When Shi Heng finished his last words, everyone took a deep breath, and Ji Wanrong felt that he felt refreshed in an instant.
"So now a lot of things can be determined."
"It's a day's drive or a horse's length away from the capital. It's connected to the river on the outskirts of Beijing, and the area is rich in Scotch pine. At the same time, if they carry out large-scale activities, they won't attract attention."
"If there is only one condition, then determining the position of the queen's power is like finding a needle in a haystack, but if all these points are combined, then it will be very easy to find it."
After Ji Wanrong finished speaking, everyone stood up.
"Okay, I will immediately ask Chongzhou to send someone to conduct a detailed search to determine the suspicious location."
Shi Heng also nodded towards Ji Wanrong, and then went out and ordered his men to search for the exact area.
With a two-pronged approach, there was already news from Chongzhou before dusk.
"Master, it has been determined that there is only one place that meets all the above conditions!" Chongzhou ran in a hurry and was panting when he spoke.
Mo Jiecheng waited for Zhongzhou's answer, his heart beating wildly.
