Chapter 173: Innocence

"I'm not a traitor to the Wiccans! I'm not! What proof do you have! Mo Shihuan's words seemed to stimulate the old man, he jumped up all of a sudden, his expression was excited, and the green tendons on his neck were revealed, looking like he wanted to get close to Mo Shihuan.

Before she could react, Zhuo Chen immediately protected Mo Shihuan behind him, and Feiying also received the eyes of his master, and the confinement of the old man was aggravated on his hands.

"I'm not a traitor, I'm not a ......" A little bit of the old man slowly calmed down and stopped resisting. He muttered repeatedly, but his eyes still did not leave Mo Shihuan's body, and he looked at her with deep meaning.

Mo Shihuan also looked at the old man, although she didn't understand the meaning in the old man's eyes, but she was sure that he was a traitor, and the key evidence was the pattern on his arm, and she couldn't be wrong.

The pattern is a unique way of marking the Wicans, and it is specially designed to leave such a mark on the body of the traitor to warn the people.

The tattoo on the tattoo could not be destroyed by any means, and unless the traitor dared to cut off his arm or burn the skin, the mark would remain with him for the rest of his life.

"You say you're not a traitor, so how do you explain the tattoo on your arm?"

Mo Shihuan was not afraid of the old man's actions just now, pushed away Zhuo Chen, who was protecting him, and took the initiative to ask the old man about it. looked at Mo Shihuan with a serious expression, waiting for the old man's explanation. Zhuo Chen was curious.

And the old man heard Mo Shihuan's words but did not answer, but showed a smile, that smile was not sarcastic or weak-hearted, which made people wonder through.

Zhuo Chen looked at Mo Shihuan as calm as usual, and seemed to be more decisive, for an old man who used poison in the teahouse, she was also the first time to see it like herself, but she could be so sure that the old man was a traitor to the Wu clan, just through the tattoos on his body.

Zhuo Chen hid the doubts in his heart, and looked at it, the pattern tattooed on the old man's arm was just a green snake spitting letters, and the strange thing was that the green snake seemed to have no eyes, bending and twisting its body, and the strange patterns on the snake skin covered most of the old man's arms.

"Huanhuan, do you see a different meaning on the pattern on that snake?" Zhuo Chen lowered his head and whispered in Mo Shihuan's ear, although he didn't know the style of the pattern, it looked like some kind of text from his first instinct.

Mo Shihuan nodded, what Zhuo Chen observed was true, the green snake that had its eyes gouged out, and the word "traitor" tattooed on its snake skin with Wu characters were iron-like evidence.

"It doesn't matter if I'm a traitor or not, don't you want to know how to solve the Jade Key Labyrinth?"

As soon as these words came out, it immediately aroused Zhuo Chen's vigilance, this old man seemed to know about the jade key, and his identity was not clear now, which force it was, it must be found out immediately.

Zhuo Chen's eyes darkened, now this person himself has to be strictly guarded, everything about the Jade Key Labyrinth that he knows, even if he uses any means, he must let him say it. Zhuo Chen has already silently made a plan in his heart, and plans to act today.

"You rebelled because of the Jade Key, and you were finally tattooed with this mark by the Wu Clan." Mo Shihuan looked at the old man, all this was just her guess, and all the old man's actions puzzled her.

From the excitement at the beginning, to the fact that he had already pointed out the sashimi on his body later, it stands to reason that he should know that he knew the meaning of the arm, why he still vaguely said that he was not a traitor, this is still debatable.

"I know the key to solving the Jade Key Labyrinth, but girl, the tattoo on my arm is because you didn't understand what happened to me, so you made a presumptuous conclusion to slander me like them, I won't let you know, just like those people."

The old man seemed to be in memory, and there seemed to be some confusion in his cloudy eyes, and in the end it only turned into a slight sigh, but it was also heard by Mo Shihuan.

Zhuo Chen and Mo Shihuan looked at each other and made eye contact, now this old man is the only breakthrough for them to crack the jade key labyrinth, and now they can't call on too much manpower to verify the truth of what he said, so they can only believe his words for the time being.

"It's important to us how we can tell us about the Jade Key Labyrinth." Mo Shihuan thought for a moment, she wanted to use the quid pro quo to extract the news from the old man's mouth, which was the most effective method in comparison.

"Girl, you have always cared about this traitor's sashimi on me, as long as you help me clear this grievance, I am willing to share everything I know with you."

"Okay, I promise you, please allow us a few days to investigate this matter." Mo Shihuan's unthinking promise made Zhuo Chen's heart sink, and he hurriedly held Mo Shihuan's hand, and slightly signaled that she could not agree easily.

The condition put forward by the old man was to find out the truth of the matter, and Mo Shihuan actually knew in his heart that the sashimi mark was not something that anyone in the Wu clan could make at will, so there was no need to question the authenticity.

But the old man let him clear his grievances, and it is not something that can be solved in a day or two, but in any case, it must be done.

"If you go back on your word after we help you, won't it be a waste of our efforts." Zhuo Chen's voice was low, which made the atmosphere that had finally eased down before reach the freezing point again.

This is not suspicious, but the identity of this old man is too confusing, and Zhuo Chen does not want to involve things related to the Wu clan, unless it is a last resort, the gains outweigh the losses.

"You don't believe me, and I have nothing to say, I thought you were here to ask for advice, but now it seems that this is just the case." Hearing the old man's disdainful words, Feiying on the side clenched the sword in his hand and seemed to be ready to draw it at any moment, and the atmosphere became very tense.

"Chen, let's let him go first, if there is something to discuss slowly, this is in the teahouse opened by the Wu clan, we can't act rashly, it will attract unnecessary attention." Mo Shihuan saw that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly appeased Zhuo Chen.

Zhuo Chen looked at Mo Shihuan, one hand was slowly raised, and the flying eagle immediately hid in the shadows, and the old man also regained his freedom. He did this just because of Mo Shihuan's words,

Their unexpected encounter with the old man this time can also be regarded as an opportunity, whether it is luck or a trap, now only by gambling can we know. He didn't believe the old man, but he believed in Mo Shihuan's choice, she went on an adventure, so he would accompany her.

On the other side, King Wu's men came back to report the news. "Report, King Wu, Zhuo Chen's subordinates have found out that he and Mo Shihuan seem to have some unusual behavior in the teahouse opened by the Wu people."

"Oh? King Liang told this king in detail about what happened there. ”
