The Little Darling Wife Who is a Divine Doctor Saved the Entire Family of the Duke's Mansion
Chapter 351: Escape Route
Chapter 351
Mo Jiuye was also not worried that Mr. Si Meng would wake up immediately. He knew the power of this anesthetic gun that his wife used better than anyone else. It could make people fall into a deep coma for at least a few hours.
Since he did not find anything unusual about the surrounding furniture and walls, the only thing left was the wooden bed in the room.
He lifted all the bedding on the bed, and as expected, something was revealed.
He stepped to the head of the bed. The wood planks there showed obvious signs of being loose.
Mo Jiuye lifted the planks, revealing a black hole that could allow a person to come in and out.
Based on past experience, such places were likely to be passages connecting to the outside world.
The passage was next to the other bedside plank, with a small dark box. At this moment, the light was just right, and Mo Jiuye saw at a glance that there were several small porcelain bottles placed in the dark box.
Without thinking, these small porcelain bottles must contain various poisons. As for Gu worms, they would definitely not be placed here.
Because Gu raisers regarded Gu worms as treasures, no matter how many they raised, they would carry them with them.
There were more than a dozen large and small porcelain bottles. Mo Jiuye casually tore off a sheet and wrapped these small porcelain bottles in it.
After tidying these up, Mo Jiuye did not rashly enter to investigate. Although Mr. Si Meng was in a coma, he was still lying outside clearly. If someone found him, Mo Jiuye's previous efforts would be in vain.
Therefore, he had to take Mr. Si Meng with him when entering the secret passage. No matter where the exit of the secret passage was, he could not give the other party any chance to escape.
There were many uncertain factors when entering the secret passage, and Mo Jiuye did not dare to take it lightly.
Most importantly, Fifth Elder Brother and Sixth Elder Brother were still waiting for him outside the Ninth Prince's Mansion. If he did not meet with his two elder brothers in time, they would definitely think something had happened to him, so doing something impulsive would be a great loss.
Thinking of this, Mo Jiuye took out paper and pen from the table and started writing:
[Fifth Elder Brother and Sixth Elder Brother, everything is going well. I discovered a secret passage and will enter to investigate first. Later I will let Little White send you the latest location.]
After finishing the note, he rolled it into a small paper roll and went out to call Little White.
He tied the note to Little White's leg and gently stroked its snow-white feathers.
"Little White, take this note to Fifth Elder Brother and Sixth Elder Brother, then come find me, okay?"
It was the first time Mo Jiuye had let Little White deliver a letter. To be honest, with just these simple words, he was not sure if Little White could understand.
However, he did not need to worry about Little White's whereabouts. His wife had said that once it recognized its master, no matter where its master was, it could find him, unless it was trapped by some accident and unable to escape.
Watching Little White fly farther and farther away, Mo Jiuye then went to Mr. Si Meng.
He tore off the hat on his head, and what appeared in front of him was a face similar in age to himself.
Although this face could not be called very handsome, it was still quite eye-catching among the crowd.
With that head of white hair, it completely matched Nan Qi's description of his master having a crane's youthful looks.
Facing the perpetrator who had persecuted his father and brothers, Mo Jiuye wished he could hack him into thousands of pieces. However, reason told him that now was not the time.
He forcibly suppressed the surging anger in his heart, and first searched Mr. Si Meng's body.
Sure enough, his precious Gu worms were tucked into his arms, a total of six.
Mo Jiuye did not dare to be careless at all towards these creatures. In case the mother Gu that controlled his father, eldest brother and second brother was among them, any problem would have unimaginable consequences.
So he also learned from those Gu raisers, tore off another sheet and carefully wrapped the porcelain bottles before tucking them into his arms.
Returning to Mr. Si Meng, Mo Jiuye roughly picked him up and threw him towards the hole.
The hole led straight down for about two meters.
With a muffled thud, Mr. Si Meng was violently thrown to the ground, and Mo Jiuye immediately jumped down after him.
It was relatively dark inside the secret passage. He held Mr. Si Meng in one hand and used a flashlight to illuminate with the other.
After walking like this for about half an hour, light faintly appeared ahead.
Mo Jiuye knew the end of the secret passage was not far away.
He continued forward, and soon a wooden door appeared before his eyes.
It could not really be called a wooden door, as there was no handle on it at all. Mo Jiuye guessed that this should be something like a closet that needed to be pulled back and forth to open.
Sure enough, as he had expected, after he pulled left and right twice, the wooden door showed signs of loosening.
He exerted a little force to the left, and the door opened.
Dazzling light instantly shone in, causing Mo Jiuye to be momentarily blinded.
But soon, he adjusted his vision.
What appeared before him was a spacious and bright room. Apart from the closet that served as the secret passage entrance, there was no other furniture in the room.
Mo Jiuye did not care too much. He threw Mr. Si Meng on the ground, while he carefully walked towards the door.
Gently pushing open the door, a courtyard appeared before his eyes.
In contrast to the cleanliness of the room, weeds could be seen everywhere in the yard. It was obvious that this place had been abandoned.
However, the indistinct traces extending from the front gate towards the houses caught Mo Jiuye's attention.
This was not really abandoned, but someone would occasionally walk around.
Because he could clearly see that some weeds had been broken off.
Obviously, these were traces left by someone stepping on them.
But it made sense to think about it. Since Mr. Si Meng could live in a courtyard with an underground passage, it was understandable that he could leave from here when necessary.
Mo Jiuye first sensed the surrounding movement. After making sure there was no danger, he walked out of the yard.
After all, it was an unfamiliar place. Even with Mo Jiuye's strong sense of direction, he could not accurately determine his location.
In any case, he had to take Mr. Si Meng with him to leave. He had to figure out the route clearly so as not to make any mistakes.
Mo Jiuye was in no hurry to leave. Instead, he used his lightness skill to leap up high and look around.
The scene that met his eyes was one he was most familiar with. When he was little, he and Nan Qi often secretly came here to play.
As it turned out, this was the Qing River less than one mile from the capital.
Apart from the conversation he just overheard between the Ninth Prince and Mr. Si Meng, just based on the exit of this secret passage, he could determine the Ninth Prince's intentions.
It was obvious that this was an escape route arranged by the Ninth Prince for himself after hiding his abilities for many years.
This showed how deep his thoughts were.
While he was lost in thought, Little White flew back and landed steadily on his shoulder.
Mo Jiuye subconsciously glanced at Little White's leg, and the note was gone.
He knew that Little White had successfully completed its first task. He was about to praise it when two figures approached swiftly from afar.
The arrivals were none other than Fifth Elder Brother and Sixth Elder Brother.
After catching his breath for a moment, Sixth Elder Brother said, "I have to say, Fifth Elder Brother was right that following this little guy would lead us to Ninth Younger Brother. He really got it right.
"Only, this fellow flies so fast that we two elder brothers almost got thrown off by it."
