The paper figures Qin Shaoyou took out were different from regular paper figures.
They are only about the size of a palm, not made of sticks, but cut from straw paper, so they have almost no fighting power, but they are not easily discovered.
When they encounter people, they just need to burrow into the nearby grass and soil and 'disappear' without a trace.
Even indoors, they can quickly hide under tables, chairs and beds, or huddle up into a ball, making people mistake them for waste paper or fallen leaves.
After being activated by Qin Shaoyou's blood energy, these paper figures jumped from his hands to the ground one after another, moving their hands and feet in a strange floating posture. And on the bumpy paper, pairs of figures emerged.
The empty little eyes stared at Qin Shaoyou.
This scene is really creepy.
Qin Shaoyou was not afraid, after all, these paper figures were made by him. He made a gesture and without saying a word, the paper figures understood what he meant, swayed their bodies one after another, and floated out of the side hall in the wind, or
Either he got into the grass, hid in the corner, or climbed up the roof beam. From these corners that were not easily noticed, he moved around the Marquis Mansion and launched an investigation.
After all the paper figures left, Qin Shaoyou stopped reciting the "Law of Daxia" and put away the magic beads.
In the side hall, no one, whether it was the servants, the soldiers guarding the courtyard outside, or the people watching secretly, knew that several paper figures had just slipped out from under their noses.
They just continued to brag to Qin Shaoyou about Qingtang Wei's former life of luxury and wealth.
Two quarters of an hour passed, and Qin Qiaoer and Liao Tixue had not returned yet. The paper figures ended their search first and returned to the side hall.
Qin Shaoyou's eyes were as bright as a torch, and he saw a paper man hanging on a tree outside the side hall.
When he waved from outside, he saw paper figures floating in front of Qin Shaoyou from the treetops, grass and roof beams.
While Qin Shaoyou was reciting the "Da Xia Law" softly, he motioned to the paper people to report the search results.
The paper man cannot speak and can only move his body and limbs in a strange dance to convey messages to Qin Shaoyou.
Qin Shaoyou, who is proficient in the art of paper figurines, naturally recognizes this dance, and quickly understood what these paper figurines were ‘saying’:
The search for the paper figures went very smoothly. None of the guards and servants in the Hou Mansion found their presence. Although a few hounds noticed them, they did not bark to warn them because they did not have any
If any dangerous breath is released, the hounds will treat them as waste paper blown up by the wind.
However, it is a pity that the paper man searched every possible place in the Marquis' Mansion, even the latrine, but did not find any useful information or evidence.
But in a certain room in the backyard, I saw a concubine who didn't know whether it was Dongchuan Hou or Dongchuan Hou Shizi, having a private meeting with an actor.
Seeing the two paper figures moving up and down, imitating the "fighting" scene between the actress and the concubine, Qin Shaoyou wanted to take a picture of his forehead when he almost broke the paper.
Do you want to gossip like this? If there is such a thing, just don't imitate the moves, okay? Ouch, this move is very difficult. It seems that the actor has some skills. No wonder he can hook up with that concubine.
In fact, Qin Shaoyou had already heard about what happened in the backyard.
I really heard that after entering the Hou Mansion, he activated the three magical powers of [Bright Eyes], [Listening] and [Miaobi] to the maximum, and heard many 'secrets'.
Unfortunately, these secrets had nothing to do with what he wanted to investigate. Instead, he saw a green hat.
I just don’t know whether this cuckold is on the head of Dongchuan Hou or his son?
Although the paper man did not find the information and evidence Qin Shaoyou wanted, it was not completely fruitless.
They discovered that there were two places with restrictions in the Hou Mansion.
Although the paper man's aura is weak and he is good at hiding, he does not dare to break into these two places for fear of violating the restrictions and alerting others.
One of the places is the study of Dongchuan Hou, where he is meeting Liao Tixue and Qin Qiaoer.
Qin Shaoyou guessed that the important intelligence materials were probably hidden in the study. Even if there was no direct evidence that could bring down Marquis Dongchuan, there should be some indirect clues.
It's just that a place like this must be heavily guarded, and there might be some magic circle hidden inside, let alone a paper man. Even he wouldn't dare to break in rashly.
The other place with restrictions is a small courtyard in the mansion.
The restriction there was so secretive that the paper man didn't even notice it at first and almost broke in. Fortunately, he smelled a dangerous smell when he was about to get close.
In addition, according to the situation reported by the paper man, the whereabouts of Prince Dongchuan Hou were not found in the Hou Mansion. Qin Shaoyou guessed that Prince Dongchuan Hou was either in that study room or in the courtyard with restricted layout.
The latter is more likely.
After asking about the location of the courtyard, Qin Shaoyou put away the paper figures, but did not rush to remove the illusion created by the magic ghost beads. Instead, he thought in his heart: "Why are there restrictions in that small courtyard? Just because Protect Prince Dongchuan Hou from being assassinated by Qingtang again? Or are Dongchuan Hou and his son trying to cover up something?"
The moment Qin Shaoyou stepped into the Dongchuan Hou Mansion, he was quietly observing the layout of the Hou Mansion. It can be said that there are three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, plus various magic circles and traps, but this is still on the surface. Yes, secretly, I don’t know what kind of methods are hidden there.
It is said that the security level in the Hou Mansion is already very high. There is no need to impose restrictions on the small courtyard where Dongchuan Hou Shizi lives, right?
Is Marquis Dongchuan particularly nervous about his precious son? Or is there really any secret hidden there?
It's a pity that although these paper figures are good at hiding, they have given up a lot because of this. There is no way to escape those restrictions and get into the yard to find out.
My [bright eyesight] may be able to see the flaw in the restriction, but as soon as I leave the side hall, the people here will be free from the influence of the illusion and ghost beads. At that time, I only need to shout a warning, and I am afraid that even the yard will be lost.
Before he could go in, he was held down by Marquis Dongchuan who came after hearing the news.
"It's a pity that there is no clone method."
Qin Shaoyou lamented in his heart.
But the next moment, his eyes lit up.
Wait, who said I don't have the ability to clone myself?
