Chapter 165 Investigating the City Lord's Mansion

Inside the small house in Shuncheng.

Mo Xiu and Mu Qingyi have almost recovered, and the residents are coming back soon.

It's not good for the two of them to occupy this house anymore, after all, the original owner may be coming back soon.

The two walked out of the house and took a deep breath at the same time.

I didn't expect that when we met again, it would be like this.

In just one day, I experienced life and death and quiet companionship.

Moxiu took out his phone and dialed.

"Uncle Yue, have you returned to Shuncheng?"

"I'm back. I'm investigating at Zhou's house. Where are you? Are you coming?"

"I've been in Shuncheng all the time, let's go here, wait for me!"

"Always in Shuncheng? It's really you."

Yue Long was a little surprised. He thought Mo Xiu had escaped from the city, but he didn't expect to hide in Shuncheng.

Moxiu summoned a giant sword and quickly flew to Zhou's house with Mu Qingyi.

When they got to the door, there were a few guards, and when they saw Moxiu, they hurried out of the way.

Mo Xiu and the others knew each other well. As a member of the Yue family, how could they not know about this person who changed the situation of the battle.

Mo Xiu asked one of them, "Where is Uncle Yue? Take me there."

The man didn't dare to neglect, and immediately brought Moxiu to the lobby of Zhou's villa.

Mo Xiu saw the father and son of the father-in-law standing in the middle at a glance.

"Uncle Yue, Yue Yuan!"

When Yue Long saw Mo Xiu coming, he immediately turned to greet him.

After this incident, Yue Long's attitude towards Mo Xiu changed, originally it was just a cooperative relationship.

Now I have some admiration for this young man.

Mo Xiu took two quick steps and waved his hands: "No, what are you looking at?"

Yue Long said: "This week, I sent people to search the entire Zhou family and found many hot weapons."

While speaking, he saw a woman standing next to Mo Xiu. After thinking for a while, he immediately realized that this is the person who saved him yesterday?

Yue Long immediately said to Mu Qingyi: "Girl, I don't want to thank you for saving my life. May I ask your name so that I can repay you in the future."

At this time, Yue Yuan whispered a few words in Yue Long's ear.

Yue Long's eyes were a little strange and he said: "So it's a girl from the Mu family. If you need anything, just say it!"

Mo Xiu caught Yue Long's eyes, is there something weird about the Mu family?

Moxiu also knew before that the Mu family is not a local household, but has only lived there for a few years, and the rest cannot be found.

But Moxiu thought about it, it must not be easy to enter the cosmic cram school. If you have time, you must ask Yue Long.

Mu Qingyi smiled decently and said, "Uncle Yue, you don't need to thank me. I followed Mo Xiu's order at that time. You should thank Mo Xiu."

As for Yue Long and the others, as soon as Mu Qingyi said this, he could tell that the relationship between the two of them was not in short supply, so he looked at Mo Xiu with a set look.

Moxiu got back to the topic.

"Uncle Yue, don't be too polite, I must save you, have you checked out this hot weapon?"

Yue Long nodded and said: "There are some clues. These hot weapons should have been stored for a long time depending on the packaging and storage methods. They are probably left over from the war."

Moxiu said in surprise: "During the war? So long?"

Yue Long said: "Yes, the alliance has banned thermal weapons for so long, it is impossible for someone to make them new."

"That is to say, the reason why Qiu Qiming cooperates with the Zhou family is because the Zhou family has hot weapons?"

Yue Long nodded and said, "It should be like this."

Moxiu was lost in thought, and there were two questions that were difficult to explain.

The first question is what is Qiu Qiming's purpose in launching this incident?

For power?But Qiu Qiming already owns the independent city of Shuncheng, even if he has greater ambitions, wouldn't it be better to strengthen the Shuncheng army in private?

Why is it so thankless to cooperate with the Zhou family?

The second question is that the Zhou family was originally a royal family, and the royal family is the group most opposed to hot weapons. Why did they keep hot weapons privately?The Zhou family has it, but do other royal families have it?

What's more, in this incident, the royal family did not show up from the beginning to the end, but if a royal family showed up and killed Qiu Qiming directly, there would not be so many troubles.

After thinking about it, Moxiu still felt that he knew too little about the royal family and the events of the Great War.

After investigating the Zhou family, everyone set off for the City Lord's Mansion together.

That's the point, and maybe some useful information can be found.

The city lord's mansion has become a ruin.

First, it was cut off by Mo Xiu, and then the Magic Eagle King came out from the ground again, and now he will no longer be able to see his original appearance.

Yue Long's thoughts were quick. Since nothing could be seen on the surface, he ordered someone to remove all the gravel to see the situation underground.

The manpower is sufficient, many people have used their skills, and the time for Mo Xiu and Yue Long to chat is cleared up.

A few people walked over, it was a huge basement, half of it was destroyed due to the groundbreaking of the Magic Eagle King, and the other half was relatively intact.

After going down, I saw a shocking scene.

There is no magical eagle as imagined, but a large breeding farm, which is full of farmed animals, and it seems to be used to feed the magic eagle.

The animals were all horrible looking, probably due to not seeing the sun for a long time, and some were even deformed.

Across this area, there is a huge cage inside. There are iron chains everywhere in the cage. This should be the place where the magic eagle is locked up.

Mo Xiu suddenly remembered the conversation with Gao Quan back then.

At that time, Moxiu asked whether the magic eagle would be kept in the basement. Gao Quan said how could there be such a big basement?

The original joke turned out to be true, the magic eagle is really in the basement, the largest basement in Shuncheng.

The few people went all the way to the innermost part, but they didn't find anything, and there wasn't any magic eagle left here.

Either the magic eagles were all in Yancheng and were completely wiped out by the Yancheng army, or Qiu Qiming took them away.

When they were about to go back, Moxiu suddenly felt that something was wrong with the wall behind him. Compared with the other three walls, it seemed much thicker.

Like...afraid of being opened.

"and many more!"

Yue Long, who had already walked several meters, turned his head and saw that Mo Xiu and Mu Qingyi were still standing inside.

"What's the matter? Moxiu, did you find anything?"

Moxiu stroked the wall with one hand, waved the other hand and said, "Uncle Yue, come and see, what material is this wall made of?"

Qiu Long walked back and looked at it and said: "Hey, this is made of purple wood. This wood is so hard that it can be used as weapons and shields. How can it be so extravagant that it can be used as a wall here?"

Moxiu knocked, and there was a hollow sound inside.

Mo Xiu and Yue Long looked at each other, there is a world inside!

Yue Long said: "I will find someone to break through this wall!"

"No need!"

Moxiu took out the black lin and carefully inserted it into the wall.

Yue Long had known for a long time that Mo Xiu had a dagger that could split everything, and it could be extended at will. The City Lord's Mansion used it to split.

But I didn't expect that even purple wood could be easily cut open.

Moxiu drew out a hole the size of a person, and after they entered, they found that it was a secret room, the space was not big, and there was only a coffin in it.

Moxiu glanced at several people in the room, and used the black lin to pry open the coffin.

Working together with Yue Yuan to open the coffin lid, there was only one well-preserved corpse inside.

Mo Xiu couldn't figure it out, why should an ordinary corpse be hidden?It seems that it should absolutely not want people to find out.

After Yue Long turned around a few times to check carefully, his body trembled a little, and he almost lost his balance and fell down.

It was the first time Moxiu saw Yue Long so abnormal.

Mo Xiu and Yue Yuan stepped forward to support Yue Long at the same time.

Mo Xiu asked: "Uncle Yue, what's the matter? Is there anything strange about this corpse? Or...do you know him?"

Yue Long said after calming down.

"This is the real old city lord Qiu Qiming!"
