Chapter 470: Little Tiger

"I should go see the mine when I have time..." Mo Hua thought to himself.

He wanted to know what exactly these walking corpses were doing inside the mine.

However, he still couldn't go out right now.

Mo Hua left the large door of the stone hall, strolled around for a while, and then went back to sleep honestly.

After several days, Mo Hua used the Complete Concealment technique again, deceiving Lu Chengyun and getting a general understanding of the situation inside the stone hall.

There were indeed many zombies here, and they were very strong.

Their strength was even stronger than that of the Lu family in the open.

If one day the Lu family didn't let Lu Chengyun be the family head,

Lu Chengyun, with a single order, could control the iron corpses and walking corpses and likely destroy the Lu family...

Mo Hua frowned as he thought.

Could it be that the Lu family ancestor was afraid of this, which is why he let Lu Chengyun be the family head?

But that didn't seem entirely right.

Building such a large stone hall and refining so many zombies

requires many body cultivators, array masters, and corpse cultivators, as well as corpse refining herbs, coffins, corpse controlling bells, and corpses...

These converted into manpower and resources, are not small numbers.

Without the support of the Lu family, Lu Chengyun would absolutely not have been able to build this.

There must be secrets between the Lu family ancestor and Lu Chengyun...

However, the clues were too few, and Mo Hua couldn't guess them for the time being.

Mo Hua thought for a moment and felt it was time to contact his younger senior brother and younger senior sister.

Responding from the inside and cooperating from the outside would make things convenient.

In case of an accident, they could also help him.

Mo Hua took out a map. The map showed the mountains and rivers of the Lu family's mine.

Mo Hua then took out a piece of paper and, based on memory, sketched out the entrance to the corpse mine and the general location of the stone hall.

Comparing the two, he could generally deduce the position of the stone hall inside the mine.

Then, based on the position, he speculated which part of the stone wall was thinnest, where it would be easy for him to dig out.

First, his current room wouldn't work.

Mo Hua looked at the map and found that his stone room was located in the deepest part of the stone hall, and the distance to the outside mountain stone was also the thickest. It would take the most time to dig out.

And it was also surrounded by arrays. As soon as he dug, he would touch an array.

These arrays couldn't be touched.

Lu Chengyun was also an array master, and his array skills were not bad.

If he didn't discover him, it would be fine. If he tampered with the arrays, Lu Chengyun might not necessarily realize it for a while.

But now, under his watchful eye, if he rashly moved the arrays, Lu Chengyun would definitely detect it.

At the same time, Mo Hua also suspected that the arrays inside this stone hall were all connected.

Lu Chengyun would definitely use some means to monitor the arrays inside the entire stone hall.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to be discovered by Lu Chengyun as soon as he deactivated the Visible Dust Array.

Deactivating the Visible Dust Array was deliberately letting Lu Chengyun discover him.

Now, digging a tunnel just couldn't let Lu Chengyun discover him.

After deceiving Lu Chengyun in the evening, Mo Hua became concealed again and ran to several stone rooms on the right side of the stone hall.

These stone rooms were empty, obviously just carved out, with no one living in them and no coffins inside.

According to Mo Hua's comparison and speculation, these stone rooms were the closest to the outer stone wall of the mine and also the easiest to dig. What was even more rare was that there were very few arrays here.

This was considered the weakest place for arrays in the entire stone hall, as speculated by Mo Hua.

Digging a small tunnel would be enough.

Mo Hua took out a small tiger.

This was a wooden puppet, also given to him by Old Man Puppet. The material was like wood, but particularly tough.

On the small tiger's body, Mo Hua had drawn a Spirit Hub Array.

The Spirit Hub Array was used for control.

Besides, on its hands, feet, and teeth, Mo Hua had also drawn Sharp Gold Arrays, which could make the puppet's hands and feet sharp, piercing mountains and opening paths as easily as turning a hand.

Mo Hua wanted to use the small tiger to go out and deliver a message.

He himself temporarily couldn't go out.

So opening a small path would be fine.

Mo Hua just found a secret corner, threw down the small tiger, and then used his divine sense to control the Spirit Hub Array on the small tiger's body, and then used the Spirit Hub Array to guide the small tiger to dig the mountain stone.

The arrays on the small tiger's body slightly brightened, and then it actively dug the mountain stone.

After that, Mo Hua just went back to his room.

Whether it was day or night, as long as Lu Chengyun wasn't peeking at him, Mo Hua would use his divine sense to control the small tiger digging the tunnel from a distance.

Inside the dead silent corpse mine, in the black and gray mountain stone.

The small tiger dug and dug, gradually digging far away.

Several days later, Mo Hua's divine sense suddenly felt lighter, and he discovered that there was nothing around to dig.

"Dug out!"

Mo Hua's heart was filled with joy.

After that, Mo Hua just let the small tiger lie in the grass, waiting for his younger senior brother or younger senior sister to discover it.

They must know that he had left Tongxian City.

If they were looking for him, they should also be searching near the mine.

And this small tiger, from Old Man Puppet's hand, he had played with it many times, and his younger senior brother and younger senior sister were also very familiar with it. With a sweep of their divine sense, they could discover it.

The mine was empty on this side, and the possibility of it being picked up by other cultivators was not high.

Mo Hua waited until daybreak.

Then his divine sense slightly moved, and he discovered that the small tiger had been picked up by someone, and this person's aura was very familiar.

It wasn't his younger senior brother, it was his younger senior sister.

After the small tiger was picked up, something seemed to be stuffed into its body. After a moment, it was thrown back into the mountain path.

Mo Hua again controlled the small tiger to crawl back.

The small tiger crawled to the cave mouth, quietly waiting.

Until after midnight, Mo Hua waited for Lu Chengyun's divine sense to leave, then became concealed, came to the cave mouth, and picked up the dusty, dirty small tiger.

There was a paper strip stuffed into the small tiger's belly.

Mo Hua unfolded the paper strip. The handwriting on the paper strip was elegant and beautiful, and it wrote one sentence:

"Where did you go?"

Behind the words, there was also a simple drawing.

The drawing was of a small face, and on the head of the small face, there was a stick, hitting its head.

This drawing, at a glance, was drawn by his younger senior sister. This small face was drawn as Mo Hua; Mo Hua had seen her draw before.

Mo Hua in the drawing was having his small head hit.

It seemed his younger senior sister was a little angry...

Mo Hua was a little helpless. He would stuff the paper strip he had written beforehand into the small tiger's body. The paper explained the cause and effect, as well as the matter of the corpse mine and the stone hall.

There was also a small array drawn on the paper strip. If it was taken by others, Mo Hua would just control the paper strip to burn itself.

Mo Hua put the small tiger back into the cave mouth again.

The small tiger puffed and puffed, and started crawling upwards again.

On the second day evening, the small tiger puffed and puffed and crawled back again.

Mo Hua went to get the small tiger again and saw a new paper strip on it. The paper strip simply wrote a sentence:

"Understood."

Behind it was also a small face, whose joy or anger could not be seen.

But it looked like she didn't seem angry...

Mo Hua slightly breathed a sigh of relief, then left the small tiger in the mountain path for him and his younger senior sister to transmit messages.

Mo Hua himself would not move lightly for the time being.

And his younger senior brother and younger senior sister outside could also be informed and make some preparations first.

After another two days passed, Lu Chengyun finally found Mo Hua, cupped his hands politely, and said:

"Lu has already prepared properly. Please, little mister, do me a favor."

Mo Hua's eyes slightly brightened and he asked:

"What favor does the Family Head want me to help with?"

"Little mister, please follow me."

Lu Chengyun made a "please" gesture.

Mo Hua then followed him out the door, walked through the corridor of the stone hall, turned several circles, and came to the large hall from before.

In the large hall, Zhang Quan was also there. Seeing Mo Hua, he let out a cold snort.

But he didn't say anything, nor did he dare to kill Mo Hua with his hand.

Mo Hua also "hummed" in response, considering it a response. In his heart, he was planning how to slightly harm Zhang Quan and then steal his ancestor's things again.

Lu Chengyun saw that the two were not harmonious, but each restrained themselves, not fighting or arguing, and slightly nodded.

"Brother Zhang, open the door."

Zhang Quan heard this, his gaze condensed, and he nodded, saying: "Good."

Mo Hua was still startled, and felt doubtful in his heart.

"Open the door? Open what door?"

Where was there a door here?

Mo Hua frowned, then saw Zhang Quan walk to a huge wall.

On the wall, there were carved murals. The murals depicted ferocious and cruel zombies, terrified cultivators, countless overturned coffins, and hands reaching out from the coffins.

Zhang Quan faced the mural, chanting spells and forming hand seals.

Mo Hua was slightly stunned.

His actions looked very familiar.

They were very similar to the actions he took in front of the screen in Walking Corpse Village, but more complex, and the incantations were also longer.

So this mural, like the screen, was the entrance to a secret room?

Indeed, after a moment, on the mural, the lines became messy and fused, turning into a pool of ink. The ink then cleared layer by layer, revealing a face that was half human, half corpse.

This face was dignified and harsh, with a greedy gaze.

And because it had become a corpse, it exuded ferocity and terror.

After the half-human, half-corpse face appeared, it opened its large mouth, opening wider and wider, until finally, the entire face formed a blood-filled basin of a mouth.

The fangs on both sides of the large mouth were sharp, and the teeth above and below were also as sharp as those of a demon beast.

This mouth was the entrance.

Lu Chengyun said: "Little mister, please!"

After finishing, he himself walked towards the mural.

Mo Hua hesitated for a while, then followed him into the zombie's blood-filled basin of a mouth.

Thank you, book friend ChanSO, for the reward.
