I created Qin Tianjian in modern times

"Don't worry about this. I have my own way." Ye Wuhen smiled mysteriously, with a cunning light flashing in his eyes.

Seeing this, Lu Xueyao couldn't help but ask curiously: "What do you have in mind? Tell me quickly."

"Well, I can't tell you for now." Ye Wuhen deliberately kept it a secret, "You'll know when the time comes."

"Hmph, so mysterious." Lu Xueyao turned her head away, pretending to be angry and ignoring Ye Wuhen.

Seeing this, Ye Wuhen quickly explained: "It's not that I don't want to tell you, but this plan needs to be kept secret. Don't worry, I will definitely give you a surprise when the time comes."

"Okay, I'll believe you this time." Lu Xueyao turned around and glared at Ye Wuhen, "But if you dare to lie to me, I won't forgive you!"

"Yes, yes, I understand." Ye Wuhen responded quickly with a nod.

The two smiled at each other and continued along the path. The night in the dense forest became darker and darker, but their hearts were full of expectation and confidence.

In the mountain village, smoke rises from cooking fires and the sounds of chickens crowing and dogs barking can be heard one after another, creating a peaceful pastoral picture.

However, under this peaceful appearance, there is a secret hidden. Liu Ruyan and Han Feng come here to uncover this secret.

"Oh, this village looks quite harmonious, how come there is a bloody corpse?" Han Feng said while scratching his head as he looked around.

Liu Ruyan rolled her eyes at him and said, "Don't underestimate this village. There must be something fishy beneath the surface."

The two walked along the path in the village, occasionally greeting the villagers passing by. When the villagers saw the two outsiders, they all smiled naively, but a hint of vigilance flashed in their eyes.

"It seems that the villagers are still on guard against us." Liu Ruyan said softly.

"What should we do? We can't just ask them about the blood corpse, right?" Han Feng was a little helpless.

Liu Ruyan smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I have a way."

She pulled Han Feng to a tavern and said, "Come on, let's go have a drink and get some information."

The tavern was bustling with people, and the villagers sat together, talking about farming and family matters. Liu Ruyan and Han Feng found a corner to sit down, and ordered a few side dishes and a pot of wine.

"Hey, have you heard? There seems to be some unrest in the village recently." A villager said mysteriously.

"What's wrong? What happened?" another person asked curiously.

"I heard that someone saw something strange at night. It looked like a human figure, but not quite like a human..." The villager lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of being heard by something.

Liu Ruyan and Han Feng looked at each other, secretly delighted. They had not expected to find a clue so quickly.

"Isn't that figure red, and its movements very stiff?" Liu Ruyan deliberately interrupted.

The villagers looked at her, with a hint of surprise in their eyes, "How did you know?"

"Oh, we've heard of similar things before." Liu Ruyan explained with a smile, "So we're just asking out of curiosity."

The villagers immediately relaxed their vigilance and began to talk about it. They told Liu Ruyan and Han Feng that there had indeed been some strange phenomena in the village recently.

Some people saw red figures at night, and those figures seemed to have no consciousness and just moved mechanically.

"Isn't this a bloody corpse?" Han Feng thought to himself but didn't say it out loud.

Liu Ruyan took the opportunity to ask the villagers if they knew the source of these strange phenomena.

The villagers shook their heads, saying they didn't know. But an old man said mysteriously, "I heard that these strange phenomena all came from that abandoned mine."

"Mine?" Liu Ruyan and Han Feng showed puzzled expressions at the same time.

The old man nodded. "Yes, it's the mine in the mountain behind the village. It used to be a gold mine, but it was abandoned later. Recently, someone discovered that there seemed to be something wrong in the mine."

Liu Ruyan and Han Feng looked at each other and had a plan in mind. They decided to go to the abandoned mine to find out what was going on.

Before leaving the tavern, Liu Ruyan specifically asked the old man about the exact location of the mine.

The old man told them that the mine was in a dense forest behind the village and could be easily found.

So, Liu Ruyan and Han Feng embarked on an adventure to the mine.

They passed through the village and came to the back mountain. The trees in the dense forest were tall and dense, blocking most of the sunlight, making the forest seem a little dark.

The two walked carefully, fearing to alert the enemy. Soon, they finally arrived at the mine the old man mentioned.

The entrance to the mine was dark, as if a huge monster had opened its mouth, waiting for its prey. Liu Ruyan and Han Feng smiled at each other and walked in without hesitation.

The morning mist in the mountains had not yet completely dissipated, and Lu Xueyao and Ye Wuhen set out on the journey to the mysterious village. According to Ye Wuhen's clues, this village seemed to have some hidden connection with the Blood Puppet Sect.

"Are you sure this is the place?" Lu Xueyao looked around and saw that the village was surrounded by dense woods, making it look particularly quiet.

"Yes, from what I heard before, the village chief of this village has had many contacts with the Blood Puppet Sect." Ye Wuhen nodded affirmatively.

The two walked into the village, only to find that the atmosphere here was extremely strange. When the villagers saw them, a trace of vigilance flashed in their eyes, and then they quickly lowered their heads, as if they were hiding something.

"It seems that the people here are not friendly to us." Lu Xueyao said softly.

"More than being unfriendly, I think they are guilty." Ye Wuhen sneered, "Let's go to the village chief's house and take a look."

When they arrived at the village chief's house, they found the door closed and no one answered no matter how hard they knocked. Ye Wuhen smiled gently, took out a thin wire from his arms, and skillfully pried open the door lock.

“What are you doing…” Lu Xueyao widened her eyes. She didn’t expect Ye Wuhen to have such a skill.

"When traveling in the world, it's always good to have many skills." Ye Wuhen smiled proudly.

The two entered the house, but found it empty. However, on the desk, they found an account book with some strange transaction records.

"Look here, 'Deliver five villagers to the Blood Puppet Sect this month in exchange for ten spiritual herbs.' What does this mean?" Lu Xueyao asked in surprise.

"It seems that there is some kind of deal between this village and the Blood Puppet Sect." Ye Wuhen frowned and said, "Moreover, the 'villagers' delivered are most likely the 'materials' used by the Blood Puppet Sect to make puppets."

The two looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes. They didn't expect that this seemingly peaceful village actually hid such a dark secret.

"What should we do now?" Lu Xueyao asked. "Since we already know this secret, we can't just sit back and do nothing." Ye Wuhen said firmly, "We have to find a way to rescue the villagers who are being used as 'materials' and expose the crimes of the Blood Puppet Sect."

Lu Xueyao nodded, with a hint of determination in her eyes. She knew that the road ahead would be more difficult, but she was ready.

The two left the village chief's house and began to secretly investigate other houses in the village.

They discovered that there were many imprisoned villagers hidden in this village. They were being used as experimental subjects of the Blood Puppet Sect and were suffering inhuman treatment.

Lu Xueyao and Ye Wuhen were filled with anger and grief. They decided to split up, with Lu Xueyao responsible for rescuing the imprisoned villagers and Ye Wuhen looking for evidence of the village's connection with the Blood Puppet Sect.

Lu Xueyao and Ye Wuhen explored the village. In their eyes, those seemingly ordinary houses and alleys might be treasures of hidden clues. Under the tranquility of the village, unknown secrets seemed to be surging.

"This place is really full of hidden talents." Ye Wuhen sighed, his eyes lingering on an abandoned house, "That house looks quite old, do you want to go in and take a look?"

Lu Xueyao nodded, and the two of them tiptoed towards the abandoned house. When they opened the door, a musty smell hit them in the face. The house was simply furnished, covered with dust and cobwebs.

"It seems that no one has lived here for a long time." Lu Xueyao looked around.

"Not necessarily." Ye Wuhen squatted down and gently wiped the ground with his hand. "Although the footprints on the ground are blurry, it can be seen that they were left recently."

Hearing this, Lu Xueyao also squatted down to observe carefully, and indeed found some subtle traces. She couldn't help but admire Ye Wuhen's observation skills.

The two began to search the house carefully, leaving no corner untouched. Suddenly, Ye Wuhen found some strange symbols and patterns on the wall.

"Xueyao, come and look at this!" he called.

Lu Xueyao walked over and saw some complicated patterns carved on the wall. They seemed disorganized, but upon closer inspection she could discover that they contained some kind of pattern.

"How are these symbols... related to the Blood Puppet Sect's puppetry?" Lu Xueyao asked in surprise.

"Yes, I have seen similar symbols in some ancient books." Ye Wuhen nodded and said, "It seems that we have found the right place. This place is indeed related to the Blood Puppet Sect."

The two smiled at each other, their hearts filled with excitement. They continued to study the symbols carefully, trying to find more clues.

"Wait, does this symbol mean 'control'?" Lu Xueyao asked, pointing at one of the symbols.

"Yes, that's right! And this, it should mean 'soul'." Ye Wuhen interpreted excitedly.

As they deciphered more deeply, the secrets behind these symbols gradually surfaced.

It turns out that these symbols are the secret techniques used by the Blood Puppet Sect to control puppets, and each symbol represents an instruction or power.

"It's amazing that these symbols contain such profound secret techniques." Lu Xueyao exclaimed.

"Yes, but what is more important for us now is to find out what the Blood Puppet Sect did with these secret techniques." Ye Wuhen reminded.

The two decided to record these symbols and study them carefully after returning. They believed that these symbols would be the key clues to reveal the conspiracy of the Blood Puppet Sect.

Just as they were about to leave, footsteps were heard outside. The two looked at each other and quickly hid in a secluded corner.

The door was pushed open and a figure walked in. He looked around, as if looking for something. Lu Xueyao and Ye Wuhen held their breath, fearing that they would be discovered.

The man walked to the wall, looked at the symbols, and said to himself, "No one should be able to understand these symbols, right?"

Lu Xueyao and Ye Wuhen smiled at each other and thought to themselves, "That may not be the case."

The man seemed not to notice them and turned to leave the room. The two breathed a sigh of relief and quietly followed him.

In the next few days, Lu Xueyao and Ye Wuhen explored the village and continued to discover new clues.

They gradually pieced together the secret activities of the Blood Puppet Sect in this village. It turned out that the Blood Puppet Sect had been using the villagers to conduct puppet experiments in an attempt to develop more powerful puppets.

"It's so cruel! They actually used innocent villagers for experiments!" Lu Xueyao said angrily.

"We must expose their crimes!" Ye Wuhen said firmly.

The night was as dark as ink, and the stars were sparse. Lu Xueyao and Ye Wuhen stood on a small hill outside the secret base of the Blood Puppet Sect, looking out at the building complex shrouded in darkness.

"It looks like we're going to have a big fight tonight." Ye Wuhen had a cynical smile on his face as he played with a dart that was flashing with a faint blue light.

Lu Xueyao glared at him and turned her head away pretending to be serious. "Stop messing around. This mission is not easy. The people of the Blood Puppet Sect are very cunning. We have to be careful."

"Yes, yes, Miss Lu is right." Ye Wuhen pretended to be respectful, but still had that unruly smile on his face.

The two said no more, quickly changed into black tights, painted their faces with black paint for camouflage, and disappeared into the night like ghosts.

The process of sneaking into the Blood Puppet Sect was more difficult than expected. Lu Xueyao and Ye Wuhen had to carefully avoid the numerous traps and patrolling guards. Sometimes they crawled forward, and sometimes they used the surrounding buildings to hide their bodies.

“The Blood Puppet Sect is really heavily guarded.” Ye Wuhen exclaimed, his gaze lingering for a moment on a tall tower in front of him.

"Inside that tower might be the evidence we're looking for."

Lu Xueyao nodded, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes, "No matter what, we must find evidence and expose the crimes of the Blood Puppet Sect."

Just as the two were about to approach the tall tower, a dark shadow suddenly passed by them.

Lu Xueyao and Ye Wuhen immediately chased after it vigilantly, only to find that the black shadow was actually a black cat.

"It seems that we are too nervous." Ye Wuhen smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Lu Xueyao frowned, "No, this cat appeared too suddenly, and its eyes..."

"What's wrong with your eyes?" Ye Wuhen asked curiously.

"Its eyes are too human-like." Lu Xueyao murmured, feeling uneasy.

She looked around and suddenly found that the surrounding scenery seemed a little strange. The trees and buildings that were originally motionless were actually shaking slightly.

"Oh no, we've fallen into a trap!" Lu Xueyao exclaimed. (End of this chapter)
