Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle.
Ying Zi rarely went into a war without any preparation, and even when he was leading a large army, he rarely attacked rashly.
This was a habit that Ying Ziyi had developed over the years. This habit of being cautious allowed him to live until now, and he could face all kinds of dangers calmly in the future.
Before this battle, Ying Zi had also instructed Xiao Li to figure out the enemy's situation and set up all the combat measures, waiting for Wang Hu and the others to be captured.
In the end, as expected, everything went according to Ying Ziyi's plan. Wang Hu was completely defeated and eliminated.
Ying Zi also looked at the corpses on the ground, and his eyes sparkled. In fact, he was more curious about his deployment. He was curious about why Wang Hu and his men were all gathered in this courtyard.
Was he waiting for that so-called high priest? Or was there some other reason?
"Search the courtyard and bring any survivors to me. Remember, I want them alive. I have something to ask!”
Ying Zi immediately looked at the doors and ordered in a dignified tone.
"Yes, Young Master!"
The Black Armored Army replied with an imposing manner. They entered the various rooms in the courtyard in a well-trained manner and continuously searched.
Ying Zi didn't have much hope that he would be able to find any survivors here, because before Wang Hu and the others had the upper hand, they hadn't seen anyone enter or leave, which was enough to prove that there was a problem. At that time, Wang Hu had led all the people in the courtyard.
The high priest was definitely not in the courtyard at that time. Otherwise, Wang Hu would not have dared to reveal his identity as the high priest.
Compared to the high priest, what made Ying Zi curious was the reason why Wang Hu and so many people had gathered here. If they weren't waiting for the high priest, then there must be something extraordinary about this place.
If there wasn't something that required so many forces to protect, then Wang Hu and the others could have spread out to different places and split up. This was the most effective measure to prevent others from investigating.
But Wang Hu didn't do that. Instead, he led everyone to gather in the courtyard. Ying Zi would never believe that there was nothing strange about the courtyard.
Soon, the Black Armored Army finished their search, and a team came to Ying Ziyi. They knelt on one knee and said respectfully,""Young Master, the results of the search are out.”
"How is it?"
Ying Zi slowly shifted his gaze to the leader of the Black Armored Army and asked calmly.
"Reporting to Young Master, there are four rooms in the courtyard. Three of them are normal and there is no one hiding inside. In the other room, there are boxes. There are nine wooden boxes. The size of the wooden boxes is about the size of an ordinary person. I have already ordered people to watch over there and wait for Young Master to go.”
The leader of the Black Armored Army lowered his head and reported truthfully.
"You did well."
Ying Zi's eyes shone brightly as he praised with a smile.
"Young Master is too kind. This is our duty.”
The leader of the Black Armored Army looked excited and lowered his head even more. However, he couldn't hide the surprise on his face. He felt that it was a great opportunity for him to be favored by Ying Zi. It was an opportunity for him to rise step by step.
Ying Zi naturally did not notice the thoughts of the Black Armored Army leader. He could finally confirm why Wang Hu and the others had gathered so many people and stayed in this courtyard.
Because, if they stayed in this courtyard, they would probably have to guard the nine wooden boxes in that house.
Although he didn't see what was inside the wooden box, he was 90% sure that Wang Hu and the others 'mission was to guard the wooden box in the courtyard.
"From Wang Hu's words, since they met the High Priest, but the person called the High Priest is not in the courtyard, there is only one possibility. That is that she has something to do. This matter is extremely secretive, so she did not bring too many guards with her.”
Ying Zi analyzed the situation step by step, and soon, he had a rough idea of the High Priest's actions.
As for what the high priest was doing, Ying Zi had also made a few guesses.
Firstly, she might be planning something with a contact who was also an anti-Qin force.
Secondly, since she dared to go out alone and leave such a valuable wooden box here, it meant that this matter would not take too much time. In other words, she could return to the courtyard at any time.
Thirdly, it was highly possible that she had gone out alone without bringing any guards with her. As for why she could go out alone with such a sense of security, other than the fact that she might have extraordinary martial arts, it was also possible that she had multiple identities to hide so that she did not have to worry about attracting the attention of the Qin army.
Thinking of this, a plan appeared in Ying Zi's mind. He was not in a hurry to check the things in the wooden box. Instead, he looked at the leader of the Black Armored Army who was kneeling on one knee in front of him and asked with a thick smile,"You, what's your name?"
"Reporting to Young Master, I will take care of it."
As the leader of the Black Armored Army, Zhang Luo became even more excited. His body was trembling, and he could not hide his excitement. He felt that his chance was really coming.
"Arrange? I'm giving you a task. Are you confident that you can do it well?”
Ying Zi patted Zhang Luo's shoulder and asked with a smile.
"Thanks to Young Master's high regard, Zhang Luo will definitely complete this matter. Otherwise, Zhang Luo will naturally die to atone for his sins!”
Zhang Luo didn't ask about what Ying Ziyi had told him. Instead, he agreed with excitement.
He wasn't joking, nor was he trying to show that he was a person who spoke empty words.
Instead, he was proving himself, his absolute dedication to this mission!
If he didn't do well in this mission, he would really be beheaded!
