"Since the underground has been hollowed out, he can set traps in any room upstairs. If someone accidentally steps on one, they'll directly fall into the hollowed-out underground prison and become his captive." Shangguan Xiu quickly figured out the secret of this island's Island Master, Mosen.
Thus, although Mosen had just outwardly agreed to send them off by boat in a few days, his real plan was to trick all of them into the guest rooms filled with traps and then lock them in the underground prison.
If Shangguan Xi hadn't claimed to have a headache to divert Mosen's attention, and if Shangguan Xi hadn't signaled him with her eyes, even Shangguan Xiu, despite being cautious, might have fallen into the trap.
Mosen, with his perpetually smiling demeanor, turned out to be so insidious.
However, being so young and yet becoming the Island Master, ruling this place like a small country, it's clear that Mosen is no ordinary person.
