"Master, madam, my subordinates have something to report!" Xue Shi's voice suddenly came from the door.

"Come in!" Xue Jincheng took his gloomy gaze away from Mu Zi and said lightly.

After Xue Shi got permission, he strode into the house, clasped his fists and saluted the two of them, "My subordinates were ordered to explore the dry well yesterday, and there was something unusual about it, and my subordinates speculated that it was very likely to be a secret passage!" ”

Mu Zi had doubts about the dry well before, so she was not surprised to hear Xue Shi's words, but she felt a little strange about Xue Shi's performance, and couldn't help but look him up and down, this calm and serious man in front of her who didn't smile was really the Xue Shi with the hippie smile before?

"Let's take a look." Xue Jincheng said.

Mu Zi couldn't help but look at the small open window on the wall, as long as he jumped out from here, he could get to the dry well, obviously there was only a wall apart, but he had to spend a quarter of an hour around most of the yard, Mu Zi pushed Xue Jincheng with some resentment.

When the group arrived, Gao Ting was guarding the well, and when he saw Xue Jincheng coming, he hurriedly explained the situation clearly, "Part of the stone wall under this well is empty, and the sound can be enlarged cleverly, and people can clearly hear the movement on the ground at the bottom of the well." ”

Xue Jincheng nodded, and looked at the stone wall that was only an inch above the ground and the surrounding land, a few weeds sprang out from between the stone walls, and the flowers and plants on the ground were also very lush, and it could be seen that this well was some years old.

"Have you asked the person in charge of cleaning this area? And the gardener who planted the flowers? Xue Jincheng asked.

Xue Shi shook his head in embarrassment, "Both of these were disposed of in the previous cleanup. ”

In this way, the clue was broken, but in this way, Xue Jincheng could be sure that this well was not dug by the Xue family themselves. The rats were so impressed that they actually hit his territory? Xue Jincheng smiled coldly in his heart.

"Is there really a water source in this well? That hollow stone wall may open? Mu Zi asked.

"The subordinates are incompetent, and they have not been able to find any organs, I am afraid that the seventh brother needs to be found to investigate again, as for the water source, although there is silt under the well, there is no moss on the stone wall, there should be no water source." Xue Shi was a little hesitant in his words, and he was not very sure about his judgment. After all, he was trained by the Dark Guard, and although they each had their own strengths except for basic skills, no one had really learned to dig wells.

The seventh brother in Xue Shi's mouth is Xue Qi, who is good at traps and hidden weapons, and is usually not in the Hou Mansion.

Xue Jincheng nodded, and said to Xue Shi, "Send a message to Xue Qi and let him come back." Gao Ting took someone to carefully check the mansion to see if there was a similar situation! ”

The High Court hesitated, "Do you need to inspect the house?" Such an investigation is like a raid on a house, and the High Court has expected that it will inevitably attract the dissatisfaction of many people.

"Check! Every inch of land and every corner must be checked! If there is any disobedience, arrest it directly! Xue Jincheng said in a cold sweat, paused and added, "Zijinyuan, Qingheju, and my father and my study, I will personally investigate." ”

Gao Ting breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and hurriedly responded, and immediately divided his guards into two groups, one group outside the exploration room and one group inside the exploration room, and launched a carpet search of the Hou Mansion.

Mu Zi stood by the well and looked at the small window on the wall, "Digging such a well, how come you can't hear a sound at all?" ”
