Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 7408 Trap
Yudai Mountain.

"In these years...the number of prey has been decreasing year by year, at least in the vicinity of the Jade Belt Mountains. If you want to get more prey, you have to go deep into the Jade Belt Mountains..."

"However, in the depths of Yudai Mountain... all kinds of beasts, poisons, insects, too many dangers. In the past few years, hunters have died in the depths every year. If you are lucky, your companions can bring back the corpses. If you are unlucky, then Even if there are no bones left, I will become the prey of some kind of wild beast." Mo Chi sighed.

"Moyun Forest shouldn't be considered the depths of Jade Belt Mountain?" Luo Xingchen said.

"Not counting, Moyun Forest is still the outer edge of Yudai Mountain. We go in from this path, passing through Moyun Forest from the thinnest place, but Moyun Forest spreads very long from north to south."

After walking for a while, along the way, as Mo Chi said, poisonous snakes and insects appeared from time to time.

Fortunately, all three of them were very agile, and they killed those poisonous snakes before they got close.

And poisonous insects...

With the medicine bag provided by Ziyan, the general poisonous insects will take a detour when they smell the smell.

But occasionally there will be those giant poisonous insects, who are not afraid of the medicine gas.

After they appeared, they died tragically under Ziyan's silver needles in an instant, adding a lot of poisonous insect specimens to her.

With the help of Zi Yan, Mo Chi quickly passed through Moyun Forest, and saw the majestic green hills on the opposite side.

"It's never been so fast before." Mo Chi couldn't help but sigh.

In the past, they were dispatched together as hunters. In the forest, those all-pervasive poisonous insects made them suffer. They had to form an formation and advance a little bit to barely pass through Moyun Forest.

"The shoe prints appeared again, that's right, that person did pass through Moyun Forest."

"Well, without the shoe prints of the little tiger baby, the little tiger baby might be knocked out, and that person carried the little tiger baby away." Zi Yan glanced at the surrounding environment and said.

"Little Tiger... nothing will happen." Mo Chi was concerned, he had lost his normal sense of judgment.

"How could it be? Before that person achieves his goal, Little Huwa must be fine." Zi Yan frowned.

"Mr. Mo, where is the secret path you mentioned?"

"Just ahead."

The ink ruler is one step ahead.

After walking for a while, on a cliff, a tunnel descending appeared in front of him.

And standing on it, you can see that the tunnel leads to a crack four or five people wide.

"Are you sure this crack is a secret passage, rather than the common karst landforms in the mountains?" Zi Yan asked.

"It is both a karst and a secret passage..." Mo Chi said.

"This is really strange, the karst crack is actually the entrance to the secret passage."

Zi Yan carefully looked at this crack, from the surface, there is no trace of artificial excavation here.

"Master Zi, don't worry, you will understand when you go in."

The ink ruler took the lead and walked down the tunnel.

"I'll go ahead."

But Zi Yan dodged and stood in front of the ink ruler.

She stepped inside.

As soon as he took a step towards the direction of the crack, suddenly dozens of black shadows rushed in all directions at an extremely fast speed.

"Shu Su!"

In an instant, Zi Yan's body was short, and she rolled forward.

A large black shadow landed on her original position, and several others hit Zi Yan's back.

"Sister Ziyan!"

Luo Xingchen rushed forward in astonishment, he had already drawn out his long sword, and quickly approached Ziyan.

"I am fine."

Zi Yan waved her hand, let out a long breath, her face was slightly uncomfortable.

"I saw the crossbow bolt hit your back..." Luo Xingchen asked with concern.

"Fortunately, when I went out, I put on the gold silk soft armor, otherwise I would have been seriously injured."

Zi Yan still has lingering fears.

It had been a long time since she had this feeling of being about to be killed.

"The strength of this crossbow is beyond ordinary, and the azimuth also covers all the positions. It means that those who want to pursue it will die."

Luo Xingchen looked at Mo Chi, and continued: "Cunnel Chief Mo, I think that person is targeting you, and you are the most likely pursuer. The arrangement here cannot be arranged in a short while, it must be carefully arranged over several days." Arrangement, we came today, that person could not have considered our arrival in advance."

Mo Chi's face was heavy, he bowed towards Zi Yan and said: "Thanks to Master Zi, otherwise, I would definitely die this time."

"Mr. Mo, you're welcome... In my opinion, we can't continue to chase." Zi Yan waved his hand to signal Mo Chi not to salute.

A look of hesitation flashed in Mo Chi's eyes.

His son, Xiaohuwa, was taken away, and he felt very uncomfortable.

If this is given up, will Little Huwa come back?

Even if that person doesn't kill the little tiger baby, will that person torture the little tiger baby?
Thinking of what would happen to his son, Mo Chi's heart tightened and his body was on the verge of falling.

But intellectually, he couldn't continue chasing him.

Luo Xingchen and Ziyan are both outsiders and high officials of the imperial court. If something happens to them, the imperial court will definitely blame them. At that time, the whole village may be in trouble.

Moreover, Luo Xingchen and Ziyan had already helped him a lot, he couldn't let them go to die again.

"Mr. Mo, don't worry, that man won't kill Little Huwa. When we go back, we'll gather people and kill them together. We still have thousands of people in the valley in front of the mountain." Luo Xingchen said.

"Thousands of people? Master Luo, is this serious?"

Mo Chi seemed to think that he had heard wrongly, there were thousands of people, how could this be possible.

"Of course, we have enough manpower, which was unexpected by that person." Zi Yan said.

"That's good, that's good, let's stop chasing, and wait until we get back to make a long-term plan."

The ink ruler kept saying.

In the past, Mo Chi would have been terrified when he heard about thousands of horses.

What exactly do the people of the imperial court want to do when they enter Yudai Mountain with thousands of troops?
You know, the mountain people are sometimes members of the bandit family. In famine years, the mountain people go down the mountain and gather together to become bandits to rob property and food.

Although Mo Chi himself has never done it, it doesn't mean that there are no villagers in Mo Village who have done it.

He has at least one crime of knowingly failing to report.

But, it's different now.

His enemy is not the court, but the man who robbed his son.

In order to get his son back, he is willing to cooperate with the court.

At this time, after deciding to go back, before Zi Yan left, she took a good look at the entrance of the crack, and understood the reason why Mo Chi said that this is the entrance of the secret passage.

It turns out that the outside is indeed formed naturally, but there is an artificially dug passage inside.

And this crack must not be the real exit of the passage, but formed by landslides and ground cracks the day after tomorrow, opening a hole from the side.

"Where is the real entrance door to this secret passage?"

Zi Yan asked.

"We have checked before, and the real entrance has been bombed and collapsed, sealed, and can no longer be opened." Mo Chi explained slowly.

"I see." Zi Yan nodded.
