Peach Blossom Button

As soon as the words were finished, a strange sound sounded, like a subtle sound made by something moving in the dark, but this sound was particularly loud in the silent corridor, Mo Bin took a deep breath, he saw, The puppets standing against the wall all turned their heads in the direction of them for a moment, and the glazed eyes that reflected the fire stared at the three of them. Immediately afterwards, those puppets walked away from the conveyor belt. Come down and swarm them.

"My God!" Mo Bin gasped.

"Why are you standing there in a daze! Open the door of the Tiange!" Bai Wangyan pushed Mo Bin hard, and he turned to look at Tao Mo, "Tao Shaoxia, please resist for a while."

Tao Mo didn't answer, he drew out the long sword at his waist, and faced the raging puppet tide, calm as ice.

The Third Young Master Mo was obviously also quite frightened. For some unknown reason, these puppets turned a deaf ear to his orders. No matter how they tried to control them, they couldn't stop their attack. In Yanshi Pavilion, there are all the puppets he has created during this period, even if he can defeat the core, they must be torn to pieces by the puppets first. Yujie touched it out, but because of being too nervous, the key could not be opened when the key was inserted/in.

Bai Wangyan had never seen Tao Mo wield a sword now, all he knew was that this young man in black was originally born to hold a sword.Holding the long sword tightly in his hand, Tao Mo erupted with a fierce aura, even sharper than the sharp sword in his hand. He rushed into the group of puppets with a stride, the long sword in his hand was like a silver dragon, and instantly Then he bit the puppet's body.Unlike Tao Mo himself, he used the sword very skillfully, as if he had observed the law of the puppet's operation in a moment, and each of his swords pierced the puppet's chest accurately. With a crisp sound of "click", the core in it was shattered, and the puppet fell to the ground and scattered into a pile of useless objects.

Bai Wangyan turned his head to look at Tao Mo's precise swordsmanship, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This doesn't look like a person who knows nothing about puppetry. Tao Mo must have accurately captured what Mo Bin said when he talked about puppetry with them. The key point, secretly engraved in the heart.Unexpectedly, this young man in black seemed to be taciturn, but he was actually quite careful.

Third Young Master Mo twisted the key of the gate of the Tiange, held his breath and pushed the gate open. He was about to greet the two of them to come in, but when he turned his head to look, he found that his masterpieces were scattered all over the place like broken copper and iron. , his face was crying in an instant: "Ah... what can I do!"

All the puppets in the Yanshi Pavilion seemed to be controlled by that unknown person. For a while, Tao Mo felt that more and more puppets were being beaten. They had already repelled a lot, but they still came like a wave.

"Tao Shaoxia! Come in!"

As soon as Tao Mo heard Bai Wangyan calling him from behind, he immediately decided not to fight anymore, he withdrew his sword, and rushed to the back with his lightness kung fu, but at this moment, he caught a glimpse of a black shadow looking towards Bai Yi in the corner of his eye. The scholar rushed over.

"Dang!" The metal and stone collided, sparking a bright spark, Tao Mo blocked the fatal blow with the sword in his hand, and then he kicked the puppet away violently. , dragged Bai Wangyan and flashed into the Tiange, Mo Bin saw that the two of them had already entered, and with all his strength, he slammed the heavy door of the Tiange.

The heavy iron door slammed shut, isolating the puppet outside, but through the iron door, the sound of the puppet scratching the door could still be heard.It was still dark in the Tiange, and it was already night, and the dome above which exposed the lake was shrouded in cloud and darkness. Mo Bin leaned against the door and heaved a sigh of relief, but he didn't just stop like that. He suddenly remembered something, and quickly ran to the teleportation mechanism on both sides of the Tiange, locked the mechanism, and checked the side doors of the teleportation puppets on both sides, and then he patted his chest in relief.

The puppets were blocked outside the door, but Tao Mo was still a little worried. He still held the sword in his hand and asked tentatively, "Is this an illusion?"

Bai Wangyan shook his head, and replied with absolute certainty: "No, this is what actually happened." Afterwards, he softened his tone and nodded to Tao Mo to express his gratitude, "Young Xia Tao, don't say thank you for your kindness, Bai Jin will definitely remember the young hero Grace for saving lives."

Bai Wangyan thanked him so much, but Tao Mo waved his hand: "Don't say that." Hearing someone say that before, Tao Mo was a little happy because he saved people with righteousness, but he gradually discovered that such polite words After all, it's just polite talk.

Bai Wangyan understood, knowing that he remembered being suspected by Jin Shuisheng, he smiled helplessly and changed the topic: "This is not an illusion, the 'Mirage Fragrance' has been extinguished, and it is impossible for the three of us to be together at the same time." Falling into a hallucination. The most important thing now, Ziwen..." Bai Wangyan looked at Third Young Master Mo, "This puppet is all from your hands, why is it controlled by others to attack us?"

"This..." Mo Bin was also extremely embarrassed for a while. He scratched his hair and spread his hands and said, "For the convenience of controlling the puppets, the Mo family has developed a method of controlling the puppets from mechanism techniques that does not require silk magnets. Previously In other words, it is to use the core of the mechanism to make the puppets move according to the preset action trajectory, but the core must be repaired every once in a while. From this point of view, it should be that the cores of these puppets have all been tampered with."

Bai Wangyan's eyes were burning like a torch: "Then who do you think is capable of doing such a thing?"

"This..." Mo Bin frowned, he really didn't want to admit it, but all the facts were in front of him, and he couldn't deny it, "The secret passage is only known to me and my second brother, and it has been repaired, and it can lead to Yanshi Pavilion Internally, only Mo Yang, who is proficient in puppet art and has time to tamper with all the puppet cores and ignite the "mage fragrance", can do it, but I really don't understand why he would do this... ..."

"Perhaps there is something hidden in it..." Bai Wangyan sighed, with his hands behind his back, he turned around in the Tiange, and finally stopped his eyes on the trap door leading to the Xianhu Courtyard.

"Mo Bin, tell me the truth, did the owner of the village give you the jade knot? It's the case, don't hide it anymore." Already on the steps of the second floor, Bai Wangyan suddenly turned around. Turn around and say this to Young Master Mo.

Mo Bin was taken aback for a moment, he wanted to be tough, but the situation was serious, so he had no choice but to let go.The always proud Third Young Master Mo is like a child who has done something wrong, he lowered his head and said softly: "It is true that my father did not hand me this key, I did not see him that night. "

Hearing what Mo Bin said, Bai Wangyan frowned: "I guess, this key was given to you by a puppet."

His eyes widened in an instant, and Mo Bin asked in amazement, "How did you know?"

"Because this makes sense," the white-clothed scholar waved his fan, obviously confident, "The puppet was made by you, so naturally you think it was given to you by your father, but you don't know, your father was already trapped in this heavenly pavilion last night. Maybe it was coercion, maybe it was something to discuss, maybe it was to prepare for the finale of today's birthday banquet... In short, this key was indeed not given to you by your father."

After being exposed by Bai Wangyan, the third young master Mo's face turned blue and white, and his hands were clenched into fists, but he still didn't attack. He sighed and looked at the jade knot in his hand with a complicated expression, revealing A helpless smile: "How I wish my father would hand me this key, but unfortunately I will never see my father again."

Tao Mo stood aside, thinking about what Bai Wangyan meant by "it can be explained". Could it be that the scholar in white has already understood the whole story?And Bai Wangyan said that Zhuangzhu Mo was in this heaven pavilion last night, so why didn't he see the Zhuangzhu when he broke in here?

"It's just that there are a few things I haven't figured out yet." Bai Wangyan thought for a while before continuing, "Why do you have to go to such lengths to frame Tao Shaoxia? Is it because Tao Shaoxia is the most likely to be suspected because he is new here? Or is there something wrong?" For other purposes?"

No matter how you think about it, it's hard to figure out why Tao Mo was the one who got the knife and not someone else?Maybe it's just because it's the easiest to frame, or are there other deeper reasons?

"Maybe I just want to find someone to take the place of the dead ghost." Mo Bin shook his head helplessly, "After all, among these guests, there are many capable people in mechanism puppetry or other fields, and they have close contacts with my villa. Only Brother Tao It's the first time I've come here, and the purpose is just to find someone. It's just my fault that I never thought of this stake, and insisted on bringing you into the Yanshi Pavilion, alas...it's all my fault."

"Don't say that," Tao Mo opened his mouth. He didn't know how to ease the remorse of Young Master Mo, so he had to try his best to search for any words he could think of, but when the words came to his mouth, he could only repeat them This sentence, "It's not your fault, I actually want to see the puppet you made..."

Bai Wangyan sighed: "Don't blame yourself too much. There is always a way for the other party to plant Tao Shaoxia. The question now is, can you guarantee that the puppets transported to Xianhu Yard will be fine? It won't happen Something like that."

After counting with his fingers, Mo Bin shook his head and said: "Probably not, even if the puppets really rioted, there would still be Mo Li and the others. It is used as a weapon, and there is nothing powerful on it.”

"Weapon use? By the way, Ziwen, I remembered something..." Bai Wangyan put his fan away, "If it is used for weapons, can meteorite iron be used to make arms and claws for puppet?"

"Of course, there is a school in the martial arts that specializes in manipulating puppets, and I have made one or two of their puppet weapons, but they think that the puppets I made... are not suitable for weapons. It’s really using meteorite as an arm, which is very different from real people, and the casting method is also very different.” Mo Bin talked about the puppet, but when he said this, he suddenly stopped, and looked at him suspiciously. Bai Wangyan, "You mean, the puppet with the broken arm is a weapon?"

Bai Wangyan didn't affirm or deny it, he just held the folding fan in his hand, and he couldn't figure it out for a while.

If this meteorite was part of the broken-arm puppet they had guessed, why did they want to engrave Mo Bin's coat of arms on it? Could it be that they wanted to continue to frame him?It's just that the puppet master's style is clear at a glance. After all, Mo Bin is an expert in making puppets, but the style of the broken-arm puppet is very different from his, even a big difference. Besides, no matter from which angle you look at it, the puppet They both look very much like the woman in red, Zhu Yun, and there seems to be something missing in Mo Li's room, besides, the two of them love that woman very much.

Could it be that the broken-arm puppet was really made by Mo Li?
