Subsequently.

Qin Mu stepped forward to wake Xue Rengui up.

"It's my turn?" Xue Rengui rubbed his sleepy eyes and stood up slowly.

Qin Mu said lightly: "No need, you go back to your room and sleep."

"Sleeping?" Xue Rengui was startled, "Is that guy back?"

Qin Mu nodded, "I'm back."

Xue Rengui asked curiously, "Any surprises?"

Paused.

Qin Mu shook his head again, "No."

"Okay." Xue Rengui responded, and then left the room.

Qin Mu didn't deliberately hide it from him.

Xue Rengui's curiosity is quite heavy.

He was afraid that after talking to Xue Rengui, he would immediately arrest that man and torture him to extract a confession.

But if this case is really related to that person, that person is by no means an ordinary person.

Chapter 867: Secret Chamber (2/5)

The next day, early in the morning.

Inn.

Qin Mu was doing morning exercises in the yard, and the waiter was feeding the horses in front of the stables.

"Little Er." Qin Mu looked at his back and called softly.

heard.

The waiter turned around hastily, with a smile on his face, "What's your order, guest officer?"

Qin Mu and Xue Rengui lived in the inn for the past few days, they spend a lot of money, and their words and deeds are kind, so the waiter in the shop has a very good impression of Qin Mu and them.

Moreover, from these two steeds, he could infer that their identities were not low. Chitu and Saifengju were the best horses he had ever seen in his life.

Qin Mu smiled lightly and said, "I see that there is a young gentleman in your inn who is wearing a green and black gown. He has lived here for a long time. Is he also a guest here?"

Slightly stunned.

The waiter smiled and said, "Oh...that's not a customer, it's our young master's."

"Young master?" Qin Mu frowned, "Does he live in the inn?"

The shop clerk nodded, "Yes, he lives in the inn, but our young master lives reclusively and is quite mysterious. I have worked here for so many years, and I don't know what he does on weekdays."

"However, it shouldn't be a bad person. After all, we were all taken away by the government for investigation."

Qin Mu nodded.

Immediately afterwards, the shop boy went back to the shop after feeding the horse.

Seeing no one around, Qin Mu sneaked into the woodshed. He was sure that the man must have gotten out of the woodshed yesterday.

creak.

Qin Mu pushed the door open and entered.

The firewood house was very dark, the roof was covered with cobwebs, and the house was very messy, with messy tools and firewood piled up everywhere.

Qin Mu searched around the house.

There must be something like a dark cabinet or a passage in the house.

Qin Mu searched intently.

creak...

The firewood room was suddenly pushed open a crack, and a figure flashed in.

Qin Mu subconsciously waved his fist and hammered at the man.

boom!

Fist palms meet.

"Master, it's me." Xue Rengui's figure appeared in the sunlight shining through the window.

Qin Mu quickly withdrew his fist, "Rengui? Why are you here?"

Xue Rengui smiled and said: "I looked around for you and asked Xiaoer to find out that you are fighting here, so I came to touch the firewood room. Is there something tricky in this firewood room?"

He widened his eyes and looked at Qin Mu strangely.

Qin Mu nodded, and said softly, "Last night, I saw that man come out of the woodshed with my own eyes."

"Come out of the woodshed?" Xue Rengui widened his eyes and said in surprise, "You mean, there is a secret room in this woodshed?"

"That's right, I was so skeptical." Qin Mu continued to grope around, "I kept watching last night, and I saw with my own eyes that he came out of the woodshed."

I heard this.

Xue Rengui suddenly became interested.

"Okay, then let's look for it, this woodshed is not easy."

Xue Rengui has always been very curious, so he hurriedly joined the search team.

It takes about a stick of incense.

Qin Mu and Xue Rengui walked out of the woodshed in disappointment and returned to their room.

The dark pavilion didn't touch it, but touched the spider web.

"Master, you can't read it wrong." Xue Rengui sat down at the table in frustration, and poured a glass of water.

"Impossible." Qin Mu shook his head firmly, "I can see very clearly that he just walked out of the woodshed, and he even glanced out the window."

"Tsk..." Xue Rengui shook his head, "Then why didn't we find it? I even knocked on the roof, but I didn't find the hidden pavilion. With the strength of the two of us, it's impossible not to knock it out."

Qin Mu said indifferently: "It's okay, we'll be fine for another two days."

Xue Rengui murmured: "Why bother? Wouldn't it be good to find that guy and beat him up?"

Qin Mu shook his head, "Torture to extract a confession? We have to know that he is the one who stole the military salary. Now we are only suspicious, and we can't use punishment if we suspect."

"Okay." Xue Rengui nodded helplessly.

Three days in a row.

Qin Mu and Xue Rengui were still squatting in the inn.

During this period, Xue Rengui couldn't bear it anymore, and went to investigate outside the man's house, but still found nothing.

"Master, that guy is gone!"

Xue Rengui pointed out the window and said excitedly.

"Leaving?" Qin Mu put down the cup in his hand, and hurried over, the man's back had disappeared from his sight.

"Should we catch up?"

"No, when it's getting late, if he hasn't come back yet, he will go to the woodshed and wait for the rabbit."

"Okay." Xue Rengui nodded excitedly.

into the night.

The man still didn't come back.

Qin Mu and Xue Rengui sneaked into the firewood room.

The bright moonlight shines through the window lattice, adding a touch of light to the dark room.

"What are you always laughing at?" Qin Mu looked at Xue Rengui beside him, speechless.

Xue Rengui covered his mouth, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "Master, this is the first time I have experienced the feeling of being a thief..."

Qin Mu:......

This joke is a little too low.

Qin Mu whispered: "We are not thieves, we are officials."

Xue Rengui waved his hand and deliberately hid in a corner, feeling very interesting.

It's almost midnight.

Xue Rengui's freshness was gone, and he leaned against the wall, drowsy.

Qin Mu looked at the direction of the gate of the courtyard through the crack of the window, and at the same time observed the inside of the house.

Just when he also felt drowsiness sweeping his body.

Click.

The sound of firewood breaking exploded in the house.

Xue Rengui stood up abruptly and drew out his dagger.

Qin Mu stood up and looked in the direction of the voice.

Diagonally opposite them, in the corner of the wall, a gap was opening in the ground, and a secret door slowly opened. Under the secret door was a stone slab.

After the secret door was opened, the stone slab was slowly moving away.

No wonder they knocked for a long time, but they didn't find any secret cabinet.

With such a thick stone slab, no abnormality can be found at all.

Moreover, this secret door is connected to the wall, even if you see cracks, you will only think it is in disrepair.

moment.

A figure poked out from the secret door.

"Thief, where are you running!" Xue Rengui shouted loudly and rushed up.

Hear shouting.

The man was startled, he raised his hand and took out his crossbow to shoot at Qin Mu and the two of them.

"Mohist hand crossbow!"

Qin Mu and Xue Rengui exclaimed.

clang clang...  

Qin Mu and Xue Rengui hurriedly drew out their daggers, bounced off the crossbow arrows, and rushed towards the corner.

Hearing the exclamation of Qin Mu and Xue Rengui, the man was also shocked.

There are only two people in this world who know the Mohist hand crossbow.

He didn't understand why these two men squatted on him here, and why they knew about the Mohist hand crossbow, which had long been lost.

Between Lightning and Flint.

The secret door leading to the underground is about to close.

Seeing helpless, Qin Mu could only pull Fang Tian's painted halberd out of the space, and slammed into the secret door fiercely.

"Break it for me!"

Chapter 868: Hunting (3/5)

The halberd blade of Fang Tian's painted halberd in Qin Mu's hand firmly stuck the secret door, making it impossible to close the secret door.

Xue Rengui looked at Fang Tian's painted halberd that suddenly appeared in Qin Mu's hand, and then at Qin Mu, with a bewildered expression.

"Master...Master."

"Do you really...really know spells? You conjured up Fang Tian's painted halberd?"

Qin Mu shook his head, "No, it has been placed on the pile of firewood. It was too dark, so you didn't see it."
