Chapter 835: The Gossip Paper Figure

The paper figurines that Qin Shaoyou took out were different from the regular paper figurines.

They are only the size of a palm, and they are not pricked out, but cut out of straw paper, so they have almost no combat effectiveness, but they are therefore not easy to be discovered.

When encountering people, they only need to drill into the nearby grass mounds, and they can 'disappear' without a trace.

Even indoors, they can quickly hide under tables, chairs, beds, or huddle together, making people mistaken for waste paper or fallen leaves.

After these paper figurines were activated by Qin Shaoyou's blood energy, they jumped from his hands to the ground one after another, moving their hands and feet in a strange posture of floating around. On the bumpy surface of the paper, a pair of small empty eyes emerged, staring at Qin Shaoyou in unison.

This scene is really a bit creepy.

Qin Shaoyou was not afraid. After all, he made these paper figurines. He made a gesture, and the paper figurines understood what he meant without saying a word. They got into the grass, or hid in the corners, or climbed up the roof beams. From these corners that were not easy to be noticed, they groped around the Hou's mansion and launched an investigation.

Only when all the paper figurines had left did Qin Shaoyou stop chanting "Great Xia Law" and put away the illusion ghost beads.

In the side hall, neither the servants, the guards outside, nor the people watching secretly, did not know that a few paper figurines slipped out from under their noses just now.

They just continued to brag to Qin Shaoyou that Qingtangwei used to be a drunken fan.

Two quarters of an hour passed, and Qin Qiaoer and Liao Tixue hadn't returned yet, but those paper figurines ended their search first and returned to the side hall.

Qin Shaoyou's gaze was like a torch, and he saw a paper figurine from a distance, hanging on a tree outside the side hall to peek his head. As soon as he waved his hand outside, he saw paper figures floating down in front of Qin Shaoyou from the treetops, bushes, and roof beams.

While reciting "Great Xia Law" lightly, Qin Shaoyou motioned the paper people to report what they found.

The paper figurine could not speak, so it could only shake its body and limbs, using a strange dance to convey the message to Qin Shaoyou.

Qin Shaoyou, who is proficient in paper figurines, naturally knew this kind of dance, and soon understood what these paper figurines were 'saying':

The search for the paper figurines went smoothly, and none of the guards and servants in the Hou's mansion found them. Although a few hounds noticed them, they didn't bark to warn them, because they didn't emit any dangerous aura, and the hounds only regarded them as waste paper blown by the wind.

However, it is a pity that the paper figurine searched all the places that could be searched in the Hou's mansion, even the latrine, but did not find any useful information or evidence.

It's just that in a certain room in the backyard, I saw a concubine who didn't know whether it was Dongchuanhou or Dongchuanhou's son, having a private meeting with Youling.

Seeing the two paper figurines go up and down, imitating the 'fight' scene between actor and concubine, almost piercing the paper, Qin Shaoyou really wanted to pat his forehead.

Do you want to gossip like this? And this kind of thing, don't imitate the action, okay? Hey, this trick is very difficult, it seems that the actor is still a bit capable, no wonder he was able to hook up with that concubine.

In fact, Qin Shaoyou had heard about what happened in the backyard for a long time.

It's really heard - after he entered the Hou's mansion, he maximized the effects of the three magical powers of [Bright Eyes], [Debate] and [Wonderful Nose], and heard a lot of 'secrets'.

It's a pity that these secrets have nothing to do with what he wants to investigate, but instead let him see a shiny green hat.

I just don't know, is this green hat worn on Dongchuan Hou's head, or his son's head?

Although the paper figurine did not find the information and evidence Qin Shaoyou wanted, it was not completely fruitless.

They discovered that there were two restrictions in the Hou Mansion.

Although the paper man's aura is weak and he is good at hiding, he dare not trespass into these two places, for fear of breaking the barrier and scaring the snake.

One of the places is the study of Marquis Dongchuan, where he is meeting Liao Tixue and Qin Qiaoer.

Qin Shaoyou guessed that the important intelligence materials are probably hidden in the study, even if there is no direct evidence that can bring down Dongchuanhou, there should be some indirect clues.

It's just that such a place must be heavily guarded, and there may be some magic circle hidden inside, let alone a paper man, even he would not dare to rush in.

Another place where there is a restriction is a small courtyard in the mansion.

The restriction there is very secretive, the paper figurine didn't even notice it at first, and almost broke in, but fortunately, when it was about to approach, it smelled a dangerous smell.

In addition, according to the situation reported by the paper figurine, the whereabouts of Dongchuan Hou Shizi was not found in the Hou's mansion. Qin Shaoyou guessed that Dongchuan Hou Shizi was either in the study room or in the restricted courtyard.

The latter is more likely.

After asking the direction of the courtyard, Qin Shaoyou put away the paper figurines, but did not rush to get rid of the illusion created by the illusion ghost beads, but pondered in his heart: "Why is there a restriction in that small courtyard? It's just for Protect Dongchuan Hou Shizi from being assassinated by Qingtang again? Or is Dongchuan Hou and his son trying to cover up something?"

The moment Qin Shaoyou stepped into Dongchuan Hou's Mansion, he was quietly observing the layout inside the Hou's Mansion. It can be said that there are three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, plus various magic circles and traps, and this is still on the surface. Yes, secretly, I don't know what tricks are hidden.

Ordinarily, the security level in the Hou Mansion is already very high, so there is no need to set up restrictions in the small courtyard where Prince Dongchuan Hou lives, right?

Is it Dongchuan Hou who is particularly nervous about his precious son? Or is there really any secret hidden there?

It's a pity that although these paper figurines are good at hiding, they have given up a lot because of this. They can't escape those restrictions and sneak into the yard to find out.

My [Bright Eyes] may be able to see the flaws in the restriction, but as soon as I leave the side hall, the people here will be free from the influence of the illusion ghost orb, and I only need to shout a warning, and I am afraid that even the courtyard will be closed. If you don't go in, you will be held down by Dongchuanhou who heard the news.

"Unfortunately, there is no clone method."

Qin Shaoyou lamented in his heart.

But the next moment, his eyes lit up.

Wait, who said I don't have a clone?
