Bloodstained Hero's Clothes

Chapter 253: Black and White
In the following day, Ling'er often wandered outside Chunxiao Courtyard, but never saw any movement in Qiyang House.Although she was very worried that Qi Yang didn't eat on time, she didn't dare to disturb his rest rashly.

Finally in the evening, Ling'er saw Yang Rui go looking for Qi Yang, and stayed in Qi Yang's house for a while.

When Yang Rui walked out of Chunxiao Courtyard, Linger stopped him.

"Brother Yang, are you looking for Brother Qi Yang?" Ling'er asked knowingly.

"Yes, Second Lord has something to explain." Yang Rui said.

"Did he ask you about the action plan?" Linger asked.

"No." Yang Rui shook his head.

"What's that?" Linger asked again.

Yang Rui wondered if he could tell what the second master had told him, and scratched his head in distress.

Ling'er didn't make things difficult for him, and said, "If it's inconvenient to say it, don't say it. Is your second master still resting? Is he hungry?"

"When I came in just now, the second master was having dinner." Yang Rui said.

"What?" Linger said in surprise, "I've been here all this time, and I haven't seen anyone bringing dinner in!"

"Brother Dongshi probably sent it in! Just now, Brother Dongshi asked him to come down to find the second master." Yang Rui said.

"Could it be that Brother Dongshi came in while I was away for a while?" Ling'er thought to himself.

"The girl is fine, I will excuse you first." Yang Rui said.

"Brother Yang, please go slowly." Ling'er said.

Ling'er glanced at Qi Yang's direction, and reluctantly went back to her room.Since Brother Qi Yang eats on time, she has no reason to stay here anymore.Even if she really wanted to see Brother Qi Yang, she couldn't be willful.
-
Because she was worried about Qi Yang the night before and didn't have much rest, Ling'er slept very deeply that night, and didn't wake up until dawn.

When Ling'er came to the hall after washing up, everyone just finished their discussion and walked out of the meeting hall one after another.

"Brother Dongshi, didn't Brother Qiyang come to discuss matters?" Ling'er didn't see Qi Yang, so she asked Yixing Dongshi who was walking behind the crowd.

"No, Ah Dian asked him to rest in the room." Yi Xingdong envoy.

"Is he alright?" Linger asked concerned.

"It's okay." Yixing Dongshi explained with a smile, "I just don't want him to participate in this operation."

Ling'er nodded knowingly.

"I still have something to do, excuse me." Yi Xingdong envoy bid farewell to Ling'er.

Ling'er watched Yixing Dongshi leave, then went to the dining hall to have breakfast, and inadvertently turned around to see Yang Rui walking towards Chunxiao Courtyard.

Ling'er thought to herself: "I just finished the discussion, is Brother Yang going to report to Brother Qi Yang right now?"
-
Yang Rui took out a topographic map from his pocket and handed it to Qi Yang, saying, "Second Master, this is the topographic map of Zhaojiazhuang you want. It was obtained from the craftsmen who built the houses, so only the maps of the houses in the village are available. The initial location, and later the Black Lotus God Sect carried out a major renovation of some houses in the village, but it is a pity that the latest topographic map cannot be obtained."

Qi Yang took the topographic map, spread it out on the table, and looked at it.

"The brothers who were sent to Zhaojiazhuang to investigate last night said that the structure of the houses in the village has not changed, which is basically consistent with what is shown in this picture." Yang Rui added.

"So that means that the major renovation was mainly for the interior of the house?" Qi Yang asked.

"Yes, I was afraid to scare the snake away, so my brother didn't sneak in to investigate." Yang Rui said.

"Well done!" Qi Yang nodded.

Yang Rui said: "The strange thing is that there are not many guards in the village, and they are scattered, and the defense is not strict at all."

Qi Yang pointed to some marks on the terrain map and asked: "Are these marks the distribution of guards?"

"Yes." Yang Rui said.

"It's really messy." Qi Yang said.

"Are they too confident in the organ array they have arranged?" Yang Rui asked.

"That's not necessarily the case." Qi Yang said.

"Second Master, did you think of something?" Yang Rui asked hurriedly.

Qi Yang didn't say what he thought, but said: "The current scattered distribution of guards is in line with my speculation."

"Then what should we do next?" Yang Rui asked.

"Find one or two brothers to sneak into their kitchen. I want to know their daily food supply, so as to deduce the number of guards in the entire Zhaojiazhuang." Qi Yang ordered.

"Yes." Yang Rui replied.

Qi Yang glanced at the topographic map again, and then asked Yang Rui: "What did you say in the discussion just now?"

Yang Rui told Qi Yang exactly what Qi Dian said during the discussion.
-
Ling'er finished her breakfast in a hurry and rushed to Chunxiao courtyard.

As soon as she entered Chunxiao Yuan, Linger saw Yang Rui was reporting something to Qi Yang through the open window.

Ling'er thought to himself: "Brother Yang is indeed loyal to Brother Qi Yang, but Brother Yang doesn't know that if Brother Qi Yang knows something, will Brother Qi Yang be in danger?"

When Ling'er approached, Qi Yang signaled Yang Rui to stop talking.

"Miss, is there anything you can do next?" Qi Yang asked Ling'er.

"It's nothing, I just passed by and came in to have a look." Ling'er said what she had been thinking about for a long time.

"Yeah." Qi Yang nodded.

Ling'er casually glanced at the table, and was attracted by the topographical map.As she approached, she asked, "What is this?"

Before Qi Yang could reply, Ling'er exclaimed: "This is Zhaojiazhuang?" She recognized the gate of Zhaojiazhuang at a glance.

Qi Yang smiled slightly, and said: "It seems that the topographical drawing is very realistic."

"Are you investigating Zhaojiazhuang?" Linger was a little surprised.

"Yes." Now that Ling'er had seen it, Qi Yang didn't hide it anymore.

Ling'er thought to himself: "Brother Qi Yang thinks that the Black Lotus God Church put the Black Lotus Magic Lamp in Zhaojiazhuang? It seems that he doesn't know the latest information about the Black Lotus Magic Lamp. That's good, he will focus on Zhaojiazhuang will not take the risk of going to the South Valley to snatch the magic lamp of the black lotus."

As soon as Ling'er thought of this, she heard Qi Yang say, "Yang Rui, go and get me a topographic map of the South Valley."

"Yes." After Yang Rui finished speaking, he walked out of the room.

"You also know Nanshan?" Linger said in surprise.

"What's wrong?" Qi Yang asked with a smile.

"It's nothing." Ling'er was a little frustrated, thinking about it, how could Brother Qi Yang not know the latest information about the black lotus magic lamp?Others don't say anything, but this big brother Yang Rui who is obedient to Brother Qi Yang will tell everything he knows without reservation.

After a while, Yang Rui came back with a topographic map.

Yang Rui said: "Second Master, there is only this topographic map for the time being, and the detailed map of the South Valley is at the Hall Master's place."

"It's just right, I want a large topographic map." After speaking, Qi Yang spread out the topographic map and put it on top of the previous topographic map.

Ling'er also hurriedly took a closer look.In this picture, besides the mountains, there is water. Linger quickly found the South Valley located at the bottom of the picture.

Because of Ling'er's sudden approach, Qi Yang's heart beat faster, and his pale face turned slightly red.He took a few deep breaths before he managed to gather his mind, and asked Yang Rui, "You said just now that the Black Lotus Sect has been building a large-scale construction recently, digging up a dense formation?"

"Yes." Yang Rui replied.

"Which direction is the secret path dug?" Qi Yang asked.

Yang Rui reached out and pointed at the northern hillside of the South Valley.

"North?" Qi Yang thought for a while, and continued to ask: "Then where is Zhaojiazhuang in this picture?"

Yang Rui didn't expect Qi Yang to ask such a question, and after looking for the picture for a long time, he pointed to a place in the north of the South Valley.

"Zhaojiazhuang is in the north of the South Valley, and there is a mountain separated from the South Valley, can you be sure?" Qi Yang asked again.

Yang Rui looked at the topographic map carefully again, before answering: "Definitely."

Qi Yang took out the topographic map of Zhaojiazhuang from the bottom of this map and glanced at it for a while, then said: "I understand. Yang Rui, you can arrange it according to what I just said."

"Yes, Second Master, this subordinate will do it now." Yang Rui left after finishing speaking.
