Chapter 12 The sun still rises!

Author: Decadent Dragon

Chapter 12 The sun still rises!

After untying the belt, an exquisite arm crossbow appeared in Mo Shili's hand.

The arm crossbow is less than fifteen centimeters long. There is a crossbow box next to the crossbow, which contains two arrows the size of the little finger. The launching device is completely composed of machine springs. Just put the pull ring on the middle finger, slightly

You can shoot crossbow arrows with just a move of your fingers.

It can be said that it is extremely hidden. If Mo Shili hadn't been on guard and lay down immediately after seeing Zheng Qianxuan raise his hand, he would have been knocked down by an arrow.

That’s right!

Just put it down!

Not only is the crossbow arrow itself extremely powerful, but also because the arrows are poisonous.

As soon as Mo Shili got close, he could smell a faint sweet smell.

The moment the sweet and fishy smell entered his nose, Mo Shili felt slightly dizzy.

"Sure enough!"

Mo Shili commented, but his face was full of joy.

The harder it is, the more he likes it.

You know, this is your own thing!

Mo Shili took advantage of the situation and put the arm crossbow on his left arm.

The arrows shot previously were also found on the pillar on one side. They were carefully pulled out and refilled back into the crossbow box, so that the number of arrows became three again.

Mo Shili raised his hand to feel it. There was no hesitation in his movements. Once his sleeves were in the way, he couldn't even see it. He was extremely concealed.

Then, Mo Shili lowered his head to inspect the two corpses.

Zheng Qianxuan didn't have any valuable items on him.

So did the messenger.

There was absolutely no information about the secret weapon that Mo Shili wanted to find.

Mo Shili, who was slightly disappointed, put the two corpses into the [Qiankun Ring] and went straight to the study. He was a little unwilling to give up and continued to search.

Mo Shili turned the Zheng family upside down, including the study room, wing room, kitchen, firewood shed, etc., but except for some money, there was nothing related to secret martial arts.

"Secret Martial Arts, inherited secret martial arts are more secretive than imagined."

Mo Shili, who came to this conclusion, looked at the sky and went straight to Zheng Qianxuan's bedroom without further delay.

The secret room in Zheng Qianxuan's bedroom is under the bed.

Mo Shili knocked on the wall with the handle of his dagger, and heard a hollow sound behind the ground.

The mechanism is a curtain hanging above the bed.

Pull gently.

Click!

After a crisp sound, a downward staircase appeared under the bed.

It was pitch black inside.

Mo Shili blew the fire stick and illuminated the place below.

Going down the stairs was a narrow hall and two closed wooden doors. Low sobs came from behind the locked wooden door on the left, apparently the remaining children were here.

As for the other unlocked door?

Naturally, it is the Zheng family’s collection!

But when Mo Shili pushed open the door, he was stunned.

In the huge secret room, there are shelves one after another, placed in rows.

Box after box is piled on the side.

However, the shelf is empty.

The boxes were also opened, and naturally they were empty.

Only a box in the corner is closed.

"this……"

Mo Shili frowned, and then thought of the 'messenger' and the forces behind him, as well as Zheng Qianxuan's attentive and flattering attitude when facing him.

Obviously, Zheng Qianxuan gave all his savings over the years to that force, and then, along with the children locked in the secret room next to him, got a secret weapon!

"For the secret martial arts?"

Mo Shili, who was once again shocked by the value of the secret weapon, calmed down after taking several breaths.

He walked to the corner and opened the only closed box.

Immediately, Huozhezi reflected a silver color.

The ingots of silver are neatly arranged in eight horizontally and five vertical directions.

There are five taels per ingot, which is two hundred taels.

And that's not all.

There are actually two floors below.

It’s also two hundred taels per floor.

This is six hundred taels!

A box costs six hundred taels, but there are more than thirty boxes in the secret room in front of you?

Moreover, the silver ingots in these boxes are valuable.

But what about those empty shelves?

Mo Shili could completely imagine how it would be filled with all kinds of calligraphy, paintings, porcelain and jade.

Gold has a price, antiques are priceless!

"He really has a fortune of hundreds of millions!"

After Mo Shili commented, he raised his hand and put all the silver coins into the [Qiankun Ring], turned around and walked to the secret room next door.

The dagger was raised, and the handle of the dagger was aimed at the lock. Mo Shili took a deep breath, and moved his [Fist Power]. As the spine dragon mobilized the muscles of his body, huge power was poured into the dagger, and he smashed it down hard.

Snapped!

The lock shattered and the wooden door opened.

There was a sobbing sound behind the door.

The children looked at Mo Shili in horror as he walked in with his face covered.

Mo Shili counted them silently.

Twenty-two children in total.

Including the previous four, it exactly matches the twenty-six missing children.

Moreover, these children were not abused.

Obviously, Zheng Qianxuan tried his best to take care of these children for the sake of the incense master's practice and his own merits.

However, although these children were not physically abused, they were obviously frightened.

Mo Shili looked timidly at the door, curling up and not daring to breathe.

Mo Shili immediately repeated -

“I was sent by ‘Gray Fairy’ to save you!”

"remember!"

"Now, go home quickly!"

After saying that, Mo Shili turned around and left.

He stood in the shadows, watching the children run out of Zheng's house smoothly, listening to the children's shouts of joy and residual fear when they came to the street, and waited quietly.

Zheng Qianxuan is dead.

The emissary of an unknown force is dead.

Those Zheng Qianxuan's confidants were dead.

Can,

There are still people who are not dead——

Zheng Qianxuan’s son: Zheng Zishuang!

To cut weeds, we need to get rid of the roots!

Otherwise, the spring breeze will blow again!

Mo Shili knew this truth well.

He was hiding in the dark and nothing happened, but what about the children and their families?

Zheng Zishuang will definitely take revenge!

It's just a matter of time.

As for Zheng Zishuang being implicated in this incident and was arrested and imprisoned?

It's possible.

But maybe not.

Who knows if some shitty shit will happen then?

Therefore, Mo Shili planned to solve the problem himself.



As the head catcher, Zheng Zishuang led his subordinates forward quickly.

He felt a little uneasy.

A watchman just reported to the Yamen that he had found a child that had been lost previously.

He immediately asked someone to calm down the watchman.

But just when he was about to use the old method to cover up the past, more lost children appeared.

He was very familiar with these children.

It's the child locked up in the secret room of his home.

And with the appearance of these children, Zheng Zishuang knew that he could not hide it.

Moreover, he couldn't delay it for long.

The top priority is to figure out what happened immediately.

Then, let his father come forward to settle everything.

What on earth is his father doing?

How did you let those children escape?

Could it be that things are not going well with Miwu?

Or are those bastards turning their backs and denying it?

Thinking in his heart, Zheng Zishuang walked faster and faster. When he saw the door of his house, he turned around and said to the men around him.

"Guard!"

After saying that, he pushed open the door and went straight to the study.

After finding no one in the study, he walked towards his father's bedroom.

During the whole process, Zheng Zishuang was cautious, and the knife in his hand was even unsheathed.

When opening the door, he held the door against the knife and pushed it inwards.

"father?"

Zheng Zishuang shouted softly into the bedroom.

"Eh."

A voice of agreement came from behind, and Zheng Zishuang turned around subconsciously.

Whoosh!

puff!

Amidst the sound of piercing the air, an arrow pierced the chest.

Before Zheng Zishuang screamed, he turned over and fell to the ground. His whole body twitched several times and then lost his voice.

Mo Shili looked at the corpse of Zheng Zishuang with a bruised face and grinning teeth, and was secretly surprised by the potency of the poison.

Seal your throat at the sight of blood!

Obviously, Zheng Qianxuan put a lot of thought into the crossbow and poison in order to save his life.

Not only clever, but also extremely vicious!

“What a good thing!”

"If you use it well, you might be able to turn defeat into victory!"

Thinking of this, Mo Shili carefully took out the arrow from Zheng Zishuang's chest, reloaded it, and then put away the opponent's body.

When Mo Shili climbed over the wall again, the words floated in front of his eyes, and new achievements emerged again——

[Achievements Obtained: Eliminate the weeds (blue), rescue the weak (blue)]

[Cut the grass and root out the root: Either don’t do it, do it, or do it! Earn 100 points and 1 skill point]

[Rescue the weak: This is a follow-up to last time and deserves more praise! Earn 100 points and 1 skill point]



His eyes swept over the text, but Mo Shili's footsteps kept moving.

He still has things to do that he hasn't finished yet.

Sometime later, a figure shuttled through the streets and alleys of the old city of Chang'an.

In this predawn, darkest hour of the day, the figures blend into the shadows, unnoticed,

When the parents who lost their children returned home from the Yamen with their recovered children, they discovered that there were two extra ingots of silver on the tables of each family.

The white flowers of silver are extremely bright under the morning light.

Suddenly, the parents were stunned.

After more than ten seconds, the parents' eyes filled with tears. They hugged their children one by one, knelt on the ground, prayed and murmured in low voices, and kept saying words of thanks.

Mo Shili, who buried the bloody clothes he wore last night in the wilderness between the old city of Chang'an and the new capital of Daxing, and put the arm crossbow into the [Qiankun Ring], put on his sheepskin coat again and couldn't help but face it.

The morning sun rises lazily——

"It's a new day, the sun is...comfortable."
