Chapter 112: The Descent of the Divine Soldier

  Shi Jin listened to Shi Jin's words and nodded heavily, which was not only obedience to his elder brother but also a deep affirmation.

  Shi Jin also patted Shi Qian's shoulder and said, "You take twenty brothers and go straight to the backyard of the Huang family. The more it is a woman's boudoir, the more carefully you must search, just don't be rude or offend the ladies."

  At this, Shi Qian couldn't help but smile slightly, especially when his brother said "Tang Tu Le Jia Ren", which made him unable to stop thinking. Shi Qian moistened his dry lips and said: "Brother, why do you say that the more women are in the inner house, the more we should go? How can I understand this?"

  "It's come to this, big brother, I don't have time for jokes. The reason I asked you to search the inner quarters of the Huang family is that since Huang Tianba was able to administer the poison, he must have hidden the antidote in a very safe and isolated place. The person guarding the antidote must be someone extremely trusted, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. Therefore, in this Huayin County, within the Huang family's residence, only the inner quarters meet his requirements for hiding the medicine. Moreover, there must be another important reason why Huang Tianba hid it here: if the poison spreads with the wind and the Huang family's inner quarters are contaminated, it would also be convenient to treat them, so as not to implicate the whole family. You say, is that right?"

  Shi Qian suddenly clenched his fist and said to Shi Jin, "Brother, I'm thoroughly convinced. Meeting you is like the heavens have finally avenged me for the misfortune of being oppressed by Huang Tianba for eight lifetimes. Look, I'll take this antidote's password back to Baicao Hall intact."

  "Brother, come slowly, when the time comes, I will have controlled the entire Huang family, and you can directly load the antidote onto a cart and send it to Yuanbao Street in front of the original yamen. At that time, I will bring Huang Tianba and meet with you again! Moreover, as soon as we get the antidote, we will immediately dispatch someone to inform Li Baicao, telling him to bring all the people from Baicaotang to meet us there. Shi Jin said, gritting his teeth and taking a deep breath, "If this matter is successful, not only can we defeat our strong enemy, but also ensure that Huayin County will be firmly defended!"

  "Alright! Big brother, let's meet at Yuanbao Street. Be careful!" Shi Qian said as he summoned about twenty skilled people from the team. In the time it took to drink a cup of tea, these twenty people had gathered behind Shi Qian, their bodies slightly angled and overlapping as they moved forward together through the tunnel.

  Shi Jin patted Shi Qian's shoulder, slightly shifted his body, and let Shi Qian and the twenty agile brothers of Shao Huashan go through the tunnel first. When Shi Jin saw the last brother disappear at the top of the well, he held his breath, concentrated, and listened carefully. Except for the light footsteps of the Shao Huashan disciples, there was no other movement, not even a shout was triggered.

  It seems that Shi Yan and the brothers have successfully climbed onto the roof and are heading towards the backyard of the Shi family. At this time, Shi Jin cleared his throat, lowered his voice, and said to the remaining brothers: "Now it's our turn to take action. This time, when we go up, the vanguard must be silent and quickly occupy the strong defensive positions at the corner of the wall by the gate, in case something unexpected happens and our actions are hindered. When the brothers in the rear come up, they will quickly rush towards the front yard, drawing the attention of the Huang family to the front yard, so as to relieve the pressure on the shipment of medicine from the backyard. Does everyone understand?

  "Understood!" The brothers responded in unison.

  Shi Jin nodded, put the knife in his mouth, and with a flicker of his eyes, he climbed up the dry well with his bare hands. The location of this dry well was in a secluded courtyard on the side of the Huang family's house, which was used for storing fodder. Shi Jin glanced around and saw that there were some scattered farm tools, while several stacks of hay were neatly piled up in the yard. The four walls of the courtyard were all houses, one each in the east, west, south, and north, with a gate connecting to the main courtyard in the northwest corner. With his quick eyes and hands, Shi Jin landed on the ground from the well mouth, tightly holding his waist knife as he rushed towards the northwest gate.

  At this time, Shao Hua Shan's brothers also came one after another, like a flowing stream, rushing straight to the wellhead.

  Shi Jin slightly poked his head out of the door, took a glance outside, and saw that there were not many servants coming and going on the small path leading to this side house. The road was quiet, with only one man carrying a huge sack walking forward, and no one else around. Shi Jin took a look and immediately felt delighted in his heart. Because once the brothers from Mount Shao Huashan all landed and came up, they would have already won three points. And under these circumstances, it should not be a problem to come up safely, and perhaps there might even be something more interesting to gain.

  Shi Jin thought to himself as he turned his head to look at the dry well again, that more than half of the brothers from Shao Hua Mountain had already arrived in the courtyard. Following Shi Jin's previous orders, they quickly took control of each key point in the courtyard. Anyone who noticed and tried to attack from the side door would first be killed by the brothers hiding at the bottom of the wall by the door.

  But now it seems that the Huang family didn't expect this either, the tunnel they painstakingly dug was actually seen through by Shi Jin, and even used for a surprise attack all the way to the inner courtyard of the Huang family.

  But in Shi Jin's heart, the overly lax vigilance of the Huang family had aroused his suspicion. Huang Tianba's father was also a great general, and many of the current guards were old subordinates left behind by his father. In terms of experience and qualifications, how could Huang Tianba, a ruthless and cunning man, not have a meticulous mind for defense? There must be hidden dangers that Shi Jin did not know about, or... As Shi Jin thought this far, his eyes and heart suddenly lit up.

  That Huang Tianba must not have expected us to use his underground passage, and he only focused on guarding the outer perimeter of the mansion, deploying his strong men at the front and back doors of the courtyard and various buildings along the street. As a result, the inside of the mansion was empty, with hardly any defenses. However, although this made it more convenient for Shi Yan to search and load the goods, it added a lot of trouble if they wanted to break through the layers of Huang's encirclement and ambush outside.

  Shi Jin was anxious for the time to shift, and the people around him were getting impatient. Just then, a soft voice came from beside him, and he saw that his brothers had all gathered together, their waists tightly grasped, exuding an aura of ferocity. Shi Jin nodded in satisfaction, just about to give the signal for them to charge out into the front courtyard. But then he saw it again - piles upon piles of hay stacked up high in the courtyard. The words that Shi Jin had spoken earlier flashed through his mind, and with this sudden inspiration, combined with the plan he had already thought out, a new round of drama was about to unfold on the stern and majestic Huang family's land...
