Asking about longevity

Chapter 423 Disappearance

There is something strange in the mine, so you can't stay there for long.

Mo Hua and others left the mine and arrived at Nanyue City, where they found a place to rest for a while.

Wang Lai was covered in bruises and looked miserable, but he was still breathing.

Mo Hua woke him up by tossing him, and asked some more questions while he was free.

When the sky was dim and he couldn't ask anything else, Mo Hua handed Wang Lai to Situ Fang.

At the same time, he also told about the coming of the king and what these ruffians had done.

Lao Yutou and three others testified on the sidelines.

When Situ Fang heard this, he was shocked and angry.

She never expected that scoundrels like Wang Lai could actually do such evil things.

Kill people to earn spiritual stones, and then cheat to compensate them.

Situ Fang raised her eyebrows and said angrily:

"Leave it to me next. I'll take Wang Lai to Dao Prison first, interrogate his accomplices, and then kill them all!"

"Is there any problem with Daotingsi?" Mo Hua asked.

The Dao Tingsi in Nanyue City is different from Tongxian City. The water inside is very muddy, and the head is not necessarily a good person.

Situ Fang frowned, thought for a moment, and sighed:

"I'll be careful. Everything will go according to the rules. The boss shouldn't be able to say anything."

Mo Hua nodded and said, "Well, sister Situ, be careful."

"Do not worry."

Situ Fang nodded, looked at Mo Hua and the others again, and said with emotion:

"Thanks to you this time."

Mo Hua waved his hand, "It's just a little effort, it's nothing."

Situ Fang patted Mo Hua on the shoulder, "I'll treat you to dinner another day."

Then he escorted Wang Lai and left.

The three of them, Lao Yutou, also expressed their gratitude to Mo Hua.

"Thank you three little adults, thank you!"

"Thank you so much, my benefactor!"

Mo Hua said: "No need to thank me, go home early and recuperate."

The three of them bowed again, and then felt deeply grateful to have survived the disaster, and went back with relief.

They almost died in the mine.

They were so close to being separated from their families forever...

After Lao Yutou and the others left, Bai Zisheng asked Mo Hua:

"What's next?"

Mo Hua thought for a moment and said, "I want to go back to the mine."

Bai Zisheng was shocked, "Are you stupid? Are you going back to seek death?"

Mo Hua pointed to the sky.

The sun is high in the sky.

Only then did Bai Zisheng realize that it was already daytime.

Even if the mine is "haunted," it's only at midnight.

"What are you doing in the mine now?" Bai Zisheng asked.

Mo Hua's eyes were a little deep, "I want to see what happened to the corpses of those gangsters..."

Bai Zisheng also looked a little solemn, "Then let's go together."

Mo Hua shook his head, "No, I can go alone. You don't know the concealment technique. Although there is a concealment formation on the cloak, the formation is not perfect enough. It is okay to use it at night. If you use it during the day, there will still be faint traces. Easy to spot.”

Bai Zisheng was a little indifferent, "Just discover it if you find it, it's no big deal..."

No one can stop him in this mine.

Mo Hua said: "This mine belongs to the Lu family. There may be a foundation guard during the day. If they are discovered, even if they can escape, they will alert the snake and expose their whereabouts..."

"Once the Lu family is alerted, it will be inconvenient for us to investigate next."

Bai Zisheng said: "If you go alone, wouldn't it be equally dangerous if you encounter a foundation?"

Mo Hua shook his head, "The Lu Family Foundation Establishment can't find me."

He knows the concealment technique and the concealment formation, and coupled with the divine consciousness of the twelve foundation-building lines, it is impossible for him to be discovered by the Lu family's foundation-building monks.

"Oh, that's right."

Bai Zisheng nodded, but still a little worried.

Bai Zixi said: "You go in alone, we will meet you outside."

Mo Hua wanted to say something else, but Bai Zixi looked at him lightly and said in a gentle voice:

"I am senior sister."

Mo Hua had no choice but to agree.

So they took a short rest and then set off again, returning to the Lujia Mine.

It was already bright at this time, and the sky was filled with morning glow.

The mine has been started.

Mining repairmen came to the mine one after another, and began to bear the heat. They held mining picks and mined the ore one after another.

The mine looked noisy and noisy again, without the eerie silence of the night.

The figure is hidden in the ink painting, and he walks into the mine swaggeringly.

In the mine, there is indeed an Elder Lu, a foundation-building monk, sitting in the shade drinking tea and watching the mine repairmen working hard.

There was also a pretty maid beside him, fanning him.

Mo Hua walked calmly past him.

The elder was unaware, his eyes wandering around the maid's slim figure.

Seeing this hopeless look, Mo Hua shook his head.

Mo Hua walked through the crowd, walked into the mine, walked deep into the mine, and came to the place where Wang Lai attempted to kill someone last night.

It was empty all around, not a single mine repairman.

There was no sign of anyone either.

There was a sudden movement in the mine last night, and the few gangsters who were left here by Mo Hua also disappeared.

There is no mine repairman because this place is deep in the mine, remote and quiet, and there are no mines to dig, so the mine repairman rarely comes here.

But what about those ruffians?

died? No bones left?

They committed many evil deeds, and it didn't matter if they died without any bones left.

But Mo Hua wants to know how they died...

Mo Hua let go of his consciousness and perceived everything around him in the white field of vision.

The stone wall is cold and pale black gray.

There was blood all around, which was thin and weak. It was left over from last night and had almost dissipated.

Among the many blood energy, some blood energy, mixed with the dark death energy, snakes on the ground and extends along the stone wall into the distance.

Mo Hua opened his eyes silently, his consciousness locked on this blood energy, and walked along the stone wall little by little.

After walking for a cup of tea, the blood and vitality are gone.

In front of you is a stone wall.

With a quick scan of the ink painting, he knew that there were formations painted on the stone wall.

Behind the stone wall must be the mine dug by the Lu family.

Mo Hua's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Judging from the traces... these gangsters were dragged by something until they were dragged into the mine..."

What happened in the mine is unknown to Mo Hua.

But there is a high probability that these gangsters, like the five missing mine repairmen, were eaten by something...

Mo Hua hesitated for a moment, wanting to unlock the formation and then go into the mine to have a look.

But as soon as he started writing, he stopped.

His consciousness stirred slightly, he calculated for a moment, and then slowly put away his pen.

"It actually...reinforced the formation..."

Not only is the stone wall stronger, but there are also layers of early warning arrays painted on it.

These formations can be unraveled by ink paintings, but it is uncertain whether there will be any changes when unraveled, thus alerting the Lu family monks.

Or maybe the Lu family deliberately drew the formation just to lure themselves into the trap?

Mo Hua weighed it and thought it was better not to take the risk.

It would not be good if the Lu family was stuck in the mine.

Mo Hua sighed and turned to leave, but there was a layer of doubt in his heart.

What is the purpose of the Lu family building these tunnels in the mine?

What secrets are there in the mine...

Mo Hua frowned, and when leaving, he eavesdropped on what the nearby mine repairman said.

I just didn't hear any useful news.

Moreover, the nearby mine repairmen have never found those ruffians.

Those gangsters just disappeared, just like the five mine repairmen, they disappeared into the mine...

…

After Mo Hua left the mine, he met Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi.

"Did you find anything?" Bai Zixi asked.

Mo Hua told the story about the ruffian.

Bai Zisheng snorted and said, "You deserve to die!"

Then he also wondered: "The Lu family, are they doing something shameful?"

Mo Hua shook his head, "It's not clear yet."

"If it's not the Lu family, then it's someone else?"

"When the king came, didn't he say that there was a monk in gray clothes?"

Mo Hua nodded and said: "Now that things have happened, we can only start with that gray-clothed monk."

The three of them walked back.

On the road, Mo Hua's expression was still a little depressed.

Bai Zixi asked, "What's wrong?"

Mo Hua sighed, "I'm worried about Yan Jiaoxi..."

"Sister Situ said that Yan Jiaoxi disappeared after entering the mine, and no one saw him again after that..."

"I'm worried whether he was harmed by Wang Lai and others..."

Bai Zisheng couldn't help but nodded, "It's possible..."

Mo Hua became even more worried when he heard this, and his little eyebrows frowned.

Bai Zixi glared at her brother gently and said softly to Mo Hua:

"Auspicious people have their own destiny, Mr. Yan may not be killed."

Bai Zisheng also realized that he had made a mistake, scratched his head and said with a smile:

"I'm just saying it, don't worry. Mr. Yan may have found other clues, so he left Nanyue City and went to search on his own."

Mo Hua knew that his senior brothers and sisters were trying to comfort him. Although he felt that what they said didn't make sense, he still felt better.

"I hope you can strictly teach Jiren and Tianxiang..."

Mo Hua sighed silently.

Seeing that Mo Hua was a little unhappy, Bai Zisheng changed the subject and said:

"That gray-clothed monk, are we going to investigate?"

Mo Hua nodded, "Yes."

No profit leads to no extinction.

It was the gray-clothed monk who wanted to buy the body, so he tricked Wang Lai and others into killing the mine cultivator.

The source lies in the gray-clothed monk.

Even if Wang Lai is removed, there will still be Zhao Lai, Qian Lai, Li Lai...

As long as the gray-clothed monks are still there, there will naturally be other monks who will kill or sell corpses for spiritual stones.

When we are done with eradicating evil, we must also root out the weeds.

Bai Zisheng also nodded repeatedly.
