"How are you little brothers, are you mercenaries who have been tasked with investigating?" said the old village chief after taking a puff of his cigarette.

Mo Li shook his head, he said: "We are not mercenaries who have taken over the mission, we just happened to see Chen Long and they were in danger to rescue them, but after listening to Chen Long talk about the disappearance of children in your village, we are very interested, and I hope that the village chief can let us investigate the incident." ”

Hearing that Mo Li and they were willing to help, the old village chief immediately hurriedly expressed his gratitude on behalf of the whole village.

At noon, Mo Li and the others stayed at their house to enjoy the lunch at the repeated request of Chen Long's mother.

The meals are just some home-cooked dishes, but they are all game from the mountains, and they are cooked by Chen Long's mother.

Not long after, when the meal was almost ready, the father of the siblings returned from outside.

The father of the siblings was dark-skinned and athletic, apparently trained by his usual work.

I didn't feel much surprised when I saw Mo Li and them, but he showed a simple smile to Mo Li and them in a friendly way, I should have seen the old village chief and understood.

After a meal, Mo Li and the others began an investigation into the disappearance of the child. Because it may involve evil laws, Mo Li and they don't dare to take it lightly.

The main reason is that the evil method is not only easier to cultivate than the ordinary secret method, but also very powerful, but its cultivation methods are all extremely evil and annihilating human nature, so they will be shouted and beaten by everyone in the mainland, but after all, some people who try to take shortcuts secretly cultivate.

Because this happened in the mountain, and the exact location was only known to the villagers, Moli and they needed a villager to lead the way. And this responsibility was naturally handed over to Chen Long to perform.

After all, Long Chen also has the strength of the Mortal Martial Realm, and if something happens, he can also break away and pass the news to the villagers.

"This is it, since the children have been here, the village has forbidden children to come here. ”

Under the leadership of Chen Long, Mo Li walked around the place where the child disappeared, and on the surface, there was nothing suspicious about it and other mountain and wild places.

If you can't see it with the naked eye, then what about the mental power?

Standing in the middle of the grass, Mo Li opened his hands, and invisible spiritual power began to emerge from Mo Li's body like a tide, gradually spreading to form an invisible spiritual power network, making all the surrounding scenes clearly visible.

The sound of the breeze blowing, the chirping of insects, the scene of falling leaves, all these small details could not escape the detection of Moli's spiritual power.

With the help of his spiritual power, Mo Li finally discovered something suspicious.

It was a dense meadow, and under the detection of spiritual power, Mo Li found that there were some unusual traces in it, and it looked like the grass had been crushed by something, but it was difficult for the naked eye to detect because of the dense grass.

After discovering this unusual trace, this time Mo was able to find such traces not far from their careful search.

Like the previous ones, it was also the appearance of being crushed by something, and the traces of the winding and long, which were different from other places, were undoubtedly a major discovery.

After making such a major discovery, Mo Li immediately informed Liu Qing of them.

"What do you think caused these traces?" asked Mo Li after finding these unique traces, and then asked Liu Qing.

"It looks like a snake crawling track. While Liu Qing and Ye Xi were pondering, Long Chen, who had been watching the traces for a long time, said loudly.

"Snake?" Hearing Long Chen's words, Mo Li's mind instantly appeared like several snake demon beasts.

"If it's a snake, it might explain how it caused it. You also said that you didn't hear any screams or cries when the child disappeared at that time, so I assume that the child was directly swallowed into the stomach by the snake monster lurking here when he was playing here, and then took it away, and then left such a unique trace. ”

"It is possible that so, then... If that's the case, wouldn't the missing children ......," Chen Long said, his face beginning to look ugly.

"Quite possibly..... Prepare for the worst. Mo Li's face was ugly and he exhaled hard, as if he was about to exhale his unhappiness.

"Now that we've found a clue, we need to find this snake monster to prove if it's related to the child's disappearance. Mo Li said, and at the same time exchanged a look with Liu Qing Yexi.

Although this incident seemed to be a child being attacked and eaten by a snake demon beast, Mo Li always had an ominous premonition, feeling that things were not so simple.

At present, the only way to find the snake demon beast is to find the clue that the child is missing.

Suddenly a mutation was born—

Hiss!

With a hissing sound, a big green snake suddenly sprang out of the grass behind Ye Xi, and its speed was the first sneak attack, and the target was until Ye Xi's back was completely exposed.

"Ye Xi, watch your back!" Mo Li shouted to remind everyone, and at the same time did his best to condense a layer of invisible spiritual power behind Ye Xi to protect the wall and block the attack of the big snake.

At this moment, Liu Qing had already come to the side of the big snake, and held the short sword in his left hand and slashed the big snake from the bottom to the top.

At the moment when the big snake was picked up, Ye Xi turned around and took out a pack of white powder from the Qiankun ring and threw it at the big snake.

After the big snake was picked off, it didn't fight with Liu Qing and them anymore, but quickly ran into the grass, and escaped with the help of its own protective color and the grass.

Qing You wanted to chase the big snake, he was sure that this big snake was the one they were looking for, but when he just wanted to leave, he was held down by Ye Xi behind him.

Blocked by this, the serpent escaped without hindrance. And although Liu Qing was confused why he wanted to let go of the big snake, he gave up the pursuit out of trust in Ye Xi.

"Don't worry, it can't escape the palm of my hand, I've just sprinkled it with thyme, the smell of incense can stay in the air for a long time, and only dogs can smell it. Then we just have to wait for a while, and then find the snake in search of the scent. ”

After Ye Xi stopped Liu Qing, he looked at the direction where the big snake was going and explained with a smile.

"Whether the truth about the child's disappearance is man-made or a natural disaster, I think we will find out when we find the lair of the great snake. ”

Mo Li looked at the disappeared snake thoughtfully, and then turned around and walked towards the village: "Ye Xi, in the next period of time, you hurry up and refine some poison, I feel that maybe you may be able to use it." ”

"Good. Ye Xi nodded, and then walked with Liu Qing and the others to follow Mo Li back to the village.

Back in the village, Ye Xi was refining poison in a remote room under Liu Qing's protector, while Mo Li and Chen Long went to prepare some realgar and realgar wine.

These are all things that have a great restraint on snakes, and be prepared.

Half a day later, Ye Xi's poison was refined, and Moli and their realgar were also prepared, and then the three of Moli, together with Chen Long and a dog, began to search for the lair of the big snake in the mountains with the fragrance of thyme.
