Mo Haoning's words were like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and Qiao Xiya's head exploded in a flash. She took a few deep breaths, tried to control her emotions, and slowly spoke, "When did His Highness start to doubt him?"

Mo Haoning got up and poured a cup of hot tea and put it in Qiao Xiya's hand, and sighed softly: "From the moment I stopped your crazy carriage on the mountain road."

Seeing Qiao Xiya looking at herself in disbelief, Mo Haoning shook her head, took out a sachet from her arms and handed it to Qiao Xiya: "Miss Qiao, do you remember this?"

Qiao Xiya took it with a trembling hand and nodded: "When I saw him yesterday, I remembered this sachet. It's his. ”

"Do you know what's in this sachet?" Mo Haoning was a little unbearable.

Qiao Xiya shook her head, with some uneasiness in her eyes.

"Open it and take a look." Mo Haoning's voice was gentle and firm.

Qiao Xiya picked up the sachet and opened it, and the two or three small particles left in it attracted Qiao Xiya's attention, Qiao Xiya poured the small particles into the palm of her hand, and looked at it, it turned out to be three bee corpses. Qiao Xiya raised her head in surprise: "Bees?"

Mo Haoning nodded.

"So, the carriage is running wildly on the mountain road because it is disturbed by bees?" Qiao Xiya imagined countless reasons to make the horse crazy, but she didn't expect it to be a bee.

"But why did the bees go straight to the carriage?" Qiao Xiya was unwilling.

"Is there something sweet in the girl's car?"

Mo Haoning's words made Qiao Xiya stunned. Yes. Qiao Xiya clearly remembered that it was a bag of dim sum, which he gave her personally at the foot of the mountain.

As soon as the words "why ......" came out, Qiao Xiya's tears rolled down.

"As for why, I haven't found the reason yet. But in the future, the girl should be careful. In order not to startle the snake, please don't show any flaws. ”

"Okay." Qiao Xiya knew that this matter must not be as simple as it seemed, Mo Haoning was right, she should be careful.

Qiao Xiya returned the sachet to Mo Haoning, got up and walked outside, and when she arrived at the door, Qiao Xiya turned her back to Mo Haoning and said slowly: "Those dead people in Huizhou City ......"

"If I'm not mistaken, he did it."

Mo Haoning's words landed, and the string in Qiao Xiya's heart completely broke. She closed her eyes in despair, letting tears rage on her face, and after a long time, Qiao Xiya stabilized her emotions a little: "Let's visit Houshan again tomorrow." Ling'er may still be waiting for us. ”

"Chunling, take care of Sanye Qiao and Gongzi Yao for me. We'll be back soon. Early in the morning, Qiao Xiya pulled Chunling in front of everyone and explained carefully.

"Girl, you can go early and come back early." Chunling seemed reluctant, and took Qiao Xiya's hand and her eyes were red.

"Don't worry, we're just sending these villagers who were taken captive up the mountain back to Huizhou City and handed them over to Lord Wu Minchu. It won't be too long. This box must be put away. Qiao Xiya smiled and handed Chunling a wooden box, "Here are the confessions of these villagers, with these, I can rescue my father." After that, Qiao Xiya looked at Yao Mingxi again, "Young Master Yao, Qiao San's body is still very weak, and I have to trouble you to take care of it more in the past few days." ”

"Xiya, why don't I go with you." Yao Mingxi looked at Qiao Sandao, "I don't think he's in any big condition......

"Brother Mingxi," Qiao Xiya interrupted Yao Mingxi, "With Brother Mingxi guarding the box here, I can rest assured." ”

"Okay, then you go and get back quickly." Yao Mingxi heard Qiao Xiya say this, so she responded to Qiao Xiya's entrustment, "Don't worry, with me, the three Qiao brothers and the box will definitely be safe and sound." ”

Qiao Xiya saw that Yao Mingxi agreed, so she took Xia He, Mo Haoning and Chu Yun, and led the three or five villagers to the outside of Huimeng County.

The group left Huimeng County, made a big circle, and came to the foot of the mountain behind Huimeng County again.

Mo Haoning looked at the villagers behind him and said, "We are going up the mountain now, back to the place where you do coolies, if you don't want to face it, you can regret it now."

"Bai Gongzi." A slightly older villager stood up, "My Pang Laosan's life was saved by Bai Gongzi, since I promised to show you the way, I will never regret it!" ”

As soon as Pang Laosan's voice fell, the remaining villagers echoed: "Yes, yes, we will never regret it." Bai Gongzi, Miss Qiao, let's go. ”

Qiao Xiya, Xia He, Mo Haoning, and Chu Yun followed the villagers and walked up the mountain again along a mountain road hidden in the grass.

The road was obviously much easier, and with just a stick of incense, everyone arrived at the cave where countless dead bodies were piled up.

"Pang Laosan," Mo Haoning looked at the pit at the entrance of the cave that was pierced by wooden stakes, "Will you be driven here to rest after you finish your work every day?" ”

"Bai Gongzi, you are laughing." Pang Laosan snorted coldly, "Those people are not so kind-hearted, although there are corpses piled up in the depths of this cave, but the place where we rest every day is not as good as here." This cave was specially used by them to pile up corpses. After a few days of rest, Pang Laosan was obviously in much better spirits.

"Take us to where you work." The inside and outside of the cave, Mo Haoning had already explored it carefully last time, and he wanted to go somewhere else to see.

"Bai Gongzi, please." Pang Laosan was unequivocal, and immediately turned his head to lead the way, "Miss Qiao, watch your step." ”

The group went around the cave and walked up a little more until they came to the entrance of a cave that had been sealed with large stones.

"This must have been sealed after they knocked us out that day, come on, brothers, take a few hands and move the stones away." Pang Laosan beckoned the villagers on the side to move stones.

In a short time, all the stones blocking the entrance of the cave were removed, and the dark cave appeared in front of everyone.

"This is it. Childe watch out for your step. Pang Laosan admonished, and took the lead in walking towards the cave.

Pang Laosan lit the torch on the wall, and a huge waterwheel appeared in the cave. There is also a large area of mountain rocks blackened by the fire. Mo Haoning walked into the cave and looked carefully, a long rope hung down along the cave wall, and looked up along the rope, only to see a bucket-sized hole at the top of the cave.

"Go up and have a look." Mo Haoning glanced back at Chu Yun.

Chu Yun walked to the rope in response, pulled the rope hard, saw that it was quite stable, two or three in his hands, under his feet, climbed the wall, with the help of the rope and the cave wall, three or five steps to the top of the cave, only to see his shoulders shrunk, the whole person drilled out of the hole.

"Master......" Chu Yun's figure disappeared from everyone's eyes a second ago, and the next second, Chu Yun's trembling voice came, "Above...... Fish ...... on it."

"Peel the hole open, and I'll go up." Mo Haoning understood what Chu Yun meant, and his eyebrows twisted into a pimple that could not be dissolved. Mo Haoning walked to the rope alone, and according to Chu Yun's appearance, he turned over in a few steps.

The scene in front of him made Mo Haoning take a few steps back: "Take my golden order and let General Su enter the mountain quickly!" Immediately close the mountain, idle people are strictly forbidden to enter the mountain, violators, beheaded! ”
