Bai Yutang looked at the picture, Zhan Zhao hugged the little four son, and the White Dragon King shook his sleeves.

Originally, the four of them thought they might have almost walked out of this dense forest. But who knew that He Wanfeng's personality was not only as pragmatic as He Yihang, but also like He Yihang, very mother-in-law.

In addition to one puzzle after another, Zhan Zhao's special skill was triggered again... Although the body was late, it was...

I saw a mummy sitting in front of me. The corpse looked very strange, brown all over, wearing a rag robe, and a mask hanging around her neck, which was the mask of the one-eyed mountain demon. The mask was also connected to a gray-white hood, but the hair under the hood was black, and a crutch was inserted next to it.

This dress, the deceased dress, should be the legendary one-eyed mountain demon.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang felt tired when they saw the corpse, and they were endless!

The White Dragon King couldn't help but complain, "He Wanfeng is so annoying! What does this mean? Is it that you asked him to solve the murder case or what?"

Xiao Sizi was also very annoyed. She pouted and leaned on Zhan Zhao's shoulder and sighed. She had known that she would have gone to see Xiao Liangzi and the others playing football.

The four of them stood at a mummy, their heads full of "noisy" and didn't want to worry about it!

Seeing that the three young men were all depressed, the White Dragon King suggested, "Otherwise, go around it? You don't have to care about everything, you are not a Bodhisattva. Moreover, this person is very likely to be pretending to be a good mountain demon child to do bad things, and he is still dead."

Xiao Sizi and Bai Yutang both looked at Zhan Zhao.

Zhan Zhao was a little confused and looked at the mummy who had been sitting under the tree for many years. Finally, he shook his head, "Forget it, didn't you pick one in the ditch just now? One is to pick two of it, and it is to pick up two of it..."

After saying that, Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang, as if he was asking for his opinion.

In fact, the fifth master had long guessed that Zhan Zhao would definitely take care of it. No matter how annoyed he was, he would take care of it because he was Zhan Zhao.

The fifth master nodded, "Since He Wanfeng is going to investigate, maybe it's a clue. Didn't we come just for the mountain demon?"

Xiao Sizi also corrected his attitude - are we from Kaifeng Prefecture? We still need to investigate if there is a case!

Zhan Zhao hugged Xiao Sizi and looked at the body.

Xiao Sizi touched his chin, looked at it for a moment, and pointed to the circle of hemp ropes hanging around the neck of the corpse.

Bai Yutang and White Dragon King both raised their faces to look at the tree behind the deceased. The tree was very high, and the highest branch was probably more than ten feet away from the ground.

"Did you hang yourself?" The White Dragon King was quite interested in the mask, but he didn't dare to take it off directly. Didn't the yamen not be allowed to touch the corpse before the cause of death was found? The old man was much more obedient than the Heavenly Master Yin Hou, so he walked away from the corpse and looked at it.

The little Sizi sat on Zhan Zhao's arm, raised her face and looked at it, deducing, "This person must have been hanged!"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both asked, "Confirm?"

Xiao Sizi pointed to the neck of the corpse, "If it was hanged and fell down, why did the neck not deform at all? And seeing that the hemp rope is so thick, the hemp rope and neck must have been broken first!"

Zhan Zhao nodded—so that's it.

Bai Yutang and White Dragon King shook their heads behind them. Such a cute dumpling was full of thrilling speeches.

"And this person is sitting." Xiao Sizi pointed to the corpse's posture, "How could he fall down from a high place and sit down just in time after he died?"

Zhan Zhao shook the dumpling, "Then what is the cause of his death?"

Xiao Sizi stared at the mummy for a while and scratched her head, "Yeah..."

All three of them stared at the dumpling.

Xiao Sizi "well" for a long time, leaned on Zhan Zhao's shoulder, "I found that I was not in good condition today..."

All three adults were helpless - they just couldn't tell?!

The little Sizi pouted, "I guess he can see it if he lets his father see it."

"How long has that person been dead? Can you infer it?" Zhan Zhao asked.

The little Sizi was a little embarrassed, "Often the corpse is exposed to wind and sun, and there will be only bones left soon, just like the one in the ravine just now. However, the climate here is very special and wet, so the corpse is waxed, and it feels a bit like an ancient corpse or a corpse sealed in a swamp."

All three of them looked at him--Yeah, I understand a lot!

The terrain and climate in the forest are quite complex. After all, the little fourth son is still young, so he still has to rely on Gongsun at this time.

Zhan Zhao and the others entered the forest and didn't know that Gongsun and Zhao Pu were already outside, so they were in a difficult situation. In addition, this unlucky forest had to take the path of "going but not returning".

"Huh? The White Dragon King tilted his head and looked at the back of the corpse, "Is this person with a tail?"

"Tail?" Everyone was curious and leaned over to look.

Zhan Zhao gave the dumpling to Bai Yutang, picked up a branch, and poked the corpse aside... and saw a bag behind the body, with a piece of animal skin exposed in the bag, which looked like a fox's tail...

Zhan Zhao picked out the bag and opened it to see it. Everyone felt that their eyes were shaking...

I saw that there were several animal skins that looked particularly precious, and there was a small bag. The small bag was broken, and there were various gems and jades... The texture was excellent, and it was obvious that it was a priceless treasure.

Among this valuable "baby" with a lot of burden, there is something strange-looking - a pair of thick-soled shoes.

These shoes are quite unique, like some kind of cloth shoes, but the soles are thick in front and thin in the back, so I feel that I can only walk on tiptoe when I wear them.

"This is a thief..." Zhan Zhao held the shoes, as if he understood, "This kind of shoes is worn by the thief when he came out to steal at night, because there is no sound when walking on tiptoe."

"Look here!" Xiao Sizi suddenly reached out and pointed at the back of the head of the corpse.

Because Zhan Zhao moved it away, the back of the body was also revealed.

Xiao Sizi found something at the back of the corpse, which seemed to be a piece of broken wood.

Zhan Zhao pinched the wood and pulled out, pulling out half an arrow.

"So was this man killed by an arrow in the back of his head?" Bai Yutang looked at the arrow, "It's not an iron arrow, it's a stone..."

"It's still the rainy globe!" Zhan Zhao was surprised when he saw the patterns in the stone. "I didn't expect that in addition to being used as decorations and keys, he also used as weapons..."

"The arrow and the arrow body look very rough." Wu Ye looked carefully again and found that there was a symbol engraved on the arrow, like the word "man"...

"Cat." Bai Yutang signaled Zhan Zhao to see.

Zhan Zhao also discovered it, opened the bag he carried with him, and took out the wooden box they found under the inn bed... The character "people" engraved on the wooden box is exactly the same as the one engraved on the arrow.

"Is it possible that the person who pretended to be a mountain demon was a thief, and was shot to death by someone with an arrow, and finally threw the body here?" Zhan Zhao was puzzled, "Why did he pretend to be hanged and then he would not retrieve the treasure he stole?"

The more mysteries I checked, there was no way Zhan Zhao and the others could only continue to follow the map marks.

But every time I walked to a place marked with eyes, I would find another corpse. These corpses were dressed the same, and they were wearing mountain demon masks. They also had some treasures on them. The corpses were waxy in the form of mummies, and they were all sitting under a tree with hemp ropes around their necks, and were shot at arrows on their bodies.

Gradually, the fifth master thought about the taste, "The place marked on the map of eyes... is the mechanism!"

"Mechanism?" Both the White Dragon King and Zhan Zhao came to see it.

"And this mechanism was activated only when we ran from the direction opposite us... So He Wanfeng reminded us that we would go but not return." Wu Ye analyzed, "These people first got caught in the mechanism, and were slinged by the lasso and hung them on the tree, and then were shot to death by the flying arrows. After the mechanism was lifted, the lasso would fall down. Because it was not falling directly, but hanging on the lasso and sliding down the tree pole, it would appear as if they were sitting under the tree.

Zhan Zhao and the White Dragon King both felt that the explanation was understandable. Who arranged the mechanism? These thieves were wearing masks of the one-eyed mountain demon, and also carrying wealth and animal skins... where did they steal it?

The four of them were studying. When the White Dragon King suddenly turned around, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang also heard footsteps coming from behind... Then he heard the little Sizi shouting, "Dad!"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang all turned around and saw the Demon King bringing several old men, Zhao Pu Gongsun, and there were two people coming in at the same time, one was the shopkeeper of the restaurant, and the other was a child... It was the child of the shopkeeper of the restaurant.

Everyone was a little puzzled - how did they come in?

The demon king smiled slightly, reached out and touched the child's head, "The way he led."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other, and suddenly had an idea. The two of them put Xiao Sizi on the ground.

Because I was afraid that Xiao Sizi would be separated, after entering the forest, Xiao Sizi was held and her feet had never touched the ground... Now that I went down to the ground, Xiao Tuanzi looked back and forth and left and right, and found that the above and the scene were floating halfway.

"Oh," Xiao Sizi felt that it was in vain just now. He had known that he would take two steps to go down the ground.

The restaurant shopkeeper's child was a few years older than Xiao Sizi and was not tall. He came over to tell Xiao Sizi, "In this forest, only children and small animals will not get lost or go to the government."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang understood all of a sudden, and they asked together, "So the one-eyed mountain demon kidnapped the child... to pass through this forest?"

The Demon King and several old men all nodded and pointed to the restaurant shopkeeper.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang still have a lot of confusion. The White Dragon King also asked Tianzun what was going on?

...

It turned out that the Demon King and his group were waiting outside for a while, but they didn't see any movement in the forest.

Gongsun was worried that his son was so anxious. The soy sauce group was sleepy. The demon king was a little impatient to wait. "Little White Dragon is still so honest..."

Finally, Hou Yin ran to capture the restaurant shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper asked Yin Hou to take a look and said everything. What's interesting is that... the things are different from what everyone guessed before.

After a communication between the two sides, when the shopkeeper heard that everyone was going to the mountains to find He Qin who was missing that year and asked for a map left by He Wanfeng, he said that he could take them in, but he wanted his son to lead the way. It turned out that the various virtual images and mechanisms in this forest were useless for children and animals below a certain height.

That's why a group of gangsters kidnapped children into the mountain back then. It was the legend of the one-eyed mountain demon created by the thief, but that happened a long time ago.

The shopkeeper's words were amazing, saying that he knew He Qin. If everyone was He Wanfeng's friend, just ask the old man directly if he had any questions.

Everyone who heard this news was shocked again - He Wanfeng's book boy He Qin was still alive!

The shopkeeper led everyone through the woods. On the way, the White Dragon King also understood the principle of the formation of the virtual image in the forest. This forest was made by the water vapor layer by layer, and the virtual image illusion created by the action of sunlight and wind... In other words, just destroy the hot and cold environment, he is good at this!

The soy sauce team complained about his slowness, and it was only now that they figured it out.

The White Dragon King was not anxious, and the fourth son was anxious first, saying that the soy sauce group was necrotic and kept bullying the little white dragon.

Lu Tianhan and Yao Changtian also helped Tuanzi say that the soy sauce group is the worst bully.

The soy sauce group had a quarrel, and finally said that Xiaotuanzi was partial to the White Dragon King.

The restaurant shopkeeper looked back and his child reassured his father that these people didn't look like bad people, they were all stupid.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both held their foreheads, and the Silver Demon King shook his head - I didn't teach him well when I was a child...
To be continued...
