Chapter 20: Action Plan

Luanfenglou, as a high-end restaurant in Jinyun City, is far from being comparable to small and medium-sized restaurants like Huihailou.

At this time, in a private room of Luanfenglou.

Xiao Shi, wearing a black shirt and black pants and a wide black hat on his head, was sitting at a round table. The brim of the hat was pressed down, covering most of his face in the shadow.

He held a wine glass in one hand while thinking about his plan.

Knock knock!

Not long after.

There was a knock on the door.

“The door is not locked, come in.”

Xiao Shi responded lightly.

The door of the private room was pushed open, and a man in a gray robe with his whole face hidden under the hood walked in.

He sat directly opposite Xiao Shi.

“Greetings, sir.”

The gray-robed man took off his hood, revealing a weathered face. This was a middle-aged man with a two-finger-long scar on his cheek.

The whole person looked a bit ferocious.

The fluctuation of Qi and blood was about the fourth level of the martial arts realm.

In front of Xiao Shi, he was very respectful.

“Are you Yinshe?”

Xiao Shi asked.

He summoned the other party with the special contact method of the night watchman. If nothing unexpected happened, this person was the spy planted by the night watchman in the Kuangfeng Village.

“Yes!”

The middle-aged man took out a token to prove his identity.

Xiao Shi nodded.

“How much do you know about the wife of the owner of Huihailou?”

Yinshe pondered for a moment, glanced at the wine glass in front of him, and when Xiao Shi nodded in agreement, he picked up the wine glass on the table, took a sip, and said.

“Since the village chief kidnapped the wife of the owner of Huihailou, she has been placed in a courtyard in the village. No one is allowed to approach the courtyard without the village chief’s permission.”

“Not many people in the village have seen the wife of the owner of Huihailou. The village chief never allows her to leave the courtyard…”

Xiao Shi thought about this and asked again.

“Were all those night watchmen who sneaked into the village to rescue people arranged by you?”

“Some of them were…”

Yinshe nodded.

“Some were arranged by other spies, but those spies were caught afterwards, and now only I am left.”

Xiao Shi took a sip of the wine in the glass.

It is not difficult to see from the information provided by Yinshe…

The village chief of Kuangfeng Village obviously knew that there would be constant night watchmen going to rescue people, and he must have taken precautions for this.

Even if Xiao Shi had not seen the courtyard, he could think that the village chief of Kuangfeng Village had probably set up a net in the courtyard.

Perhaps this is also the reason why the village chief of Kuangfeng Village did not allow people in the village to approach the courtyard.

“How did the night watchmen fail in the past?”

Xiao Shi asked again.

“In terms of identity, they hid it very well and didn’t reveal any flaws, but when they went to rescue people, they couldn’t succeed.”

Yin She shook his head.

He didn’t know where the night watchmen failed in the past.

After all, his task was to arrange identities for these night watchmen so that they could blend in, and he would not act with them to rescue people.

Xiao Shi’s eyes showed a thoughtful look.

If he rescued people in the way of the night watchmen in the past, the possibility of success would be extremely low.

Sure enough, he still had to follow his own plan.

“I need to know how many people there are in Kuangfeng Village on weekdays?”

He looked at Yin She.

Yin She thought about it.

“The number of people in Kuangfeng Village is about two thousand, but people from other villages come to visit from time to time, so the number cannot be fixed.”

“Two thousand people?”

Xiao Shi frowned.

This number is much more than he imagined, which is not very conducive to his plan.

“What is the distribution of Kuangfeng Village? Do you have a map?”

Xiao Shi asked again.

“Yes!”

Yin She took out a relatively simple map, which was obviously made by himself, and roughly drew the distribution of Kuangfeng Village on it.

Xiao Shi focused on the location of the villa, and asked Yin She some other questions.

He had a more comprehensive understanding of Kuangfeng Village.

Combined with his own plan, he made some analysis.

“It should work!”

Xiao Shi made a judgment in his heart.

“Does the lord need me to arrange an identity for you?”

Yin She asked.

“No.”

Xiao Shi shook his head.

He would not use the methods of those people in the past to save people.

The owner of Kuangfeng Village obviously knew their way of saving people, and had been on guard against it.

This made Yin She startled.

If he hadn’t arranged an identity to sneak in, he really couldn’t think of any other way Xiao Shi could go to Kuangfeng Village to save people.

It’s impossible to go in alone to save people, right?

Yinshe looked at the night watchman in front of him in confusion.

He always felt that this night watchman was different from the night watchmen he had met before…

“What does the lord need me to do?”

He asked curiously.

“I need you to help me deliver a batch of wine.”

Xiao Shi gently shook the wine in the cup, his eyes flickering.

“Send the wine in?”

Yinshe was even more confused.

“Does the lord want to poison the wine?”

He guessed.

Xiao Shi shook his head.

It’s not that he hadn’t thought about the method of poisoning, but it didn’t work.

The poison in his hand [Erosion Blood] needs to touch blood to react.

If it is mixed in the wine and drunk, it will not have any effect.

Moreover, even if it works after drinking, it is impossible to poison the entire Kuangfeng Village. As long as one person is poisoned, the others will know that the wine is poisonous.

It is impossible to let everyone in Kuangfeng Village drink the wine at the same time.

“If it’s not poisoned… then what is the purpose of my lord asking me to send this batch of wine?”

Yinshe was puzzled.

“You just need to help me send this batch of wine in, and then find a way to hold a banquet, and then let everyone in Kuangfeng Village come to drink.”

Xiao Shi ordered.

“…Yes!”

Although Yinshe didn’t know Xiao Shi’s specific plan, as a spy of the Night Watch, he would obey all the arrangements of the Night Watch.

…

Before Yinshe left, Xiao Shi gave him a pot of wine and asked him to take it back to the village to let the owner of Kuangfeng Village know that he had this kind of fine wine on hand, and revealed to him that he could get more of this kind of wine in two days.

Xiao Shi believed that as long as the owner of Kuangfeng Village tasted this kind of wine, he would definitely support Yinshe to hold a banquet in the village.

As for how Yinshe would explain the origin of these fine wines, it was not something Xiao Shi needed to worry about.

As an excellent spy, Yinshe could naturally find a reasonable reason.

“Two days is enough time to prepare!”

After leaving Luanfeng Tower, Xiao Shi began to act according to his plan.

First, he had to collect a large number of insects, birds and beasts.

By killing them, he could increase the amount of fine wine in his hand.

Although he had a lot of fine wine in his hand now…

But the supply this time was relatively large, and the wine he had on hand might not be enough.

It was not difficult to find these insects, birds and beasts in Jinyun City.

Xiao Shi directly paid to hire a group of people to collect them.

In less than a day…

He had nearly ten thousand insects, birds and beasts in his hand!
