After all the sacrifices have been made to speed pass, who is still practicing hard skills?

Chapter 78: Visiting Zhu’s Mansion at night, Madam mistakenly identifies her! (Seeking for further reading)

Song Ji lowered his head, his long hair covering his face, making it difficult to see clearly what he was thinking.

It wasn't until a full quarter of an hour later that he raised his head, revealing a pair of red eyes.

He had struggled, but Jiang Che's words had undoubtedly foreshadowed his future path. Now, I am afraid that the entire Crouching Tiger Mountain people would think that he had betrayed him.

No one will come to save him, and even if there is, they will come to kill him.

As for doubts.
  From the moment he saw Huo Xiaoshan's sword 'Red Star', he had already believed that the two parties had definitely met and fought before. After all, the Third Master had regarded the Red Star as a treasure since he got it.

But he also has family members on Crouching Tiger Mountain.

"Tell me your choice."

Jiang Che looked at Song Jidao with an indifferent expression.

"My family members are still on the mountain."

A hoarse voice came out of Song Ji's mouth.

"You can continue to stay in the cell until Crouching Tiger Mountain is destroyed. Soon, I will lead troops to destroy Crouching Tiger Mountain and save your family as much as possible."

If Song Ji knew the truth, Jiang Che would indeed do the same.

"Song Songji is willing to serve you!"

Song Ji lowered his head and expressed his surrender.

Then he said:

"I do know of a sinister place located at Guyue Lake in Yanggu County. It is said that this place was a fighting battlefield hundreds of years ago, and it turned into a sinister place over many years.

It's just that the mouth of the evil source is located at the bottom of the lake. It is difficult for ordinary warriors to hold their breath for a long time. It is difficult to use the evil energy to practice. Moreover, this is not a big secret in Crouching Tiger Mountain.

Every once in a while, someone will regularly collect evil spirits and bring them back to the mountain. If you want to use this to practice, you must be careful. "

For ordinary people, it is indeed difficult to collect the evil spirit at the bottom of the lake, but for Jiang Che, is it a problem?

With the Sacrificial Monument here, he could collect enough evil energy at once for his own use.

"How strong is Crouching Tiger Mountain?"

This is something Jiang Che is more concerned about.

Song Ji let out a long breath, knowing that this was a necessary condition for his surrender. After a moment of silence, he said:

"Three Tongmai realm warriors, respectively three village leaders, are extraordinary in strength. Especially the leader of Dazhai, Wu Xiaolin, has been at the peak of Tongmai for many years. Looking at the two counties of Yanggu and Qingjiang, I think they have no rivals. They are only one step away. The innate Qi can break through.

There are about ten warriors in the Bone Forging Realm, all of whom are in the same leadership position as me. Anyone who can break through the channel can become the fourth village leader. This is the rule set by the big village master.

There are at least dozens of Neixi warriors, and the rest are all strong. "

"Any more?"

"There are about 2,000 people in the village, 70 horsemen and 600 infantry. The rest are all vassal families."

Song Ji told everything he knew about the situation without hiding anything.

Jiang Che was stunned. No wonder Crouching Tiger Mountain had been able to stand for more than ten years and could not be defeated even by bandits. With such strength, even Fengziying was inferior.

Without the innate warriors taking action, at least several times the number of troops would be needed to attack the mountain.

This is a real gangster.

After all, looking at Tai'an Prefecture, how many hills can have horse troops stationed there?

You must know that a horse is of great value. Even if it is not an elite war horse, it is definitely not a small number. There are also well-trained horse troops. Even the Fengzi camp only has a few dozen horses in total.

If he can take Crouching Tiger Mountain under his command, he will definitely increase his foundation and power instantly. "It is said that Crouching Tiger Mountain is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Do you know of any small roads that can lead to a surprise attack?" Although he has not yet reached the peak of Tongmai, he is no match for what Song Ji calls the Great Stronghold Master.

But this still does not prevent him from making long-term plans.

Since Crouching Tiger Mountain was targeted by him, it should be his.

"Several intersections going up the mountain are controlled by troops, making it difficult to make a surprise attack." Song Ji shook his head.

"You should rest here for a while first. It won't take long for you to be useful. I am short of talents. You should think about it these days."

After comforting Song Ji for a few words, Jiang Che turned around and left the prison.

Only Song Ji, who was still tied up, looked a little dazed.

He never thought about betraying the village and joining the government, but now that the matter was over, he had no better choice. He was not afraid of death, but was afraid that his family would be implicated and killed.

With a sigh, Song Ji closed his eyes.

After interrogating Song Ji, Jiang Che did not leave Yanggu County. From Chen Mingya's tracking, it can be judged that there are people who have been secretly watching him, including Yang Xian Gouburen, Zhao Mingcheng, and Crouching Tiger Mountain.

The previous two attempts to kill Chen Mingya and Huo Xiaoshan were actually due to the inconsistency in the information the two sides knew. Even though the other party was slightly stronger than him, they were defeated because they did not know that he had broken through the Tongmai and suddenly attacked.

Next time, if you take action, it won't be so easy.

Therefore, Jiang Che decided to postpone leaving the city and get the Earth Source Stone first.

In order to prevent things from going wrong, Jiang Che also specifically found Geng Dabiao and asked him to prepare for being summoned by Zhu Sheng, revealing that he had been bribed by Liu Zhi.

And just in case, Jiang Che directly sent Xu Chenghu and Xu San'er's young son to Fengzi Camp to deliver the message, just to use his family members to suppress Xu San'er.

It's not that he doesn't trust him, it's just that he can feel more at ease.

Because he was being watched, he could not easily see Kou Yuansheng. The only person who could help him was Xu Saner.

Before he could obtain the innate spiritual energy, he had to make various preparations.

At a quarter of a hour, Jiang Che appeared near the Zhu Mansion on time. This was the time he had agreed with Liu Zhi. Before three quarters of the hour, he would try his best to delay the time for him.

Two hours, four hours, was enough for him to go through the entire Zhu Mansion.

At this moment, there was deathly silence inside and outside the Zhu Mansion.

Except for a few sporadic nursing home inspections, everyone else has fallen asleep.

Jiang Che's first stop was the Zhu Mansion's warehouse. After evading the guards, he sneaked in and looked around. Although there were many precious medicinal materials and gold and silver, there was no trace of the Origin Stone.

Another quarter of an hour later, Jiang Che left the warehouse and continued to search in several surrounding rooms, but still found nothing. After thinking about it, Jiang Che turned his attention to Zhu Sheng's bedroom.

There are only a few places where something so precious could possibly be stored.

The bedroom and study are the most likely locations.

There are no study rooms or warehouses, and only one bedroom is the most promising.

Dressed in black, Jiang Che appeared quietly outside the bedroom with his face covered. Listening to the even breathing inside, Jiang Che held his breath, opened the window, and put a pipe of smoke in.

After a while, he opened the door and prepared to search.

But while lying on the bed, Mrs. Zhu opened her eyes when she heard a slight movement, and glanced at the disguised 'Zhu Sheng' angrily, thinking that this time there was something new.

Unfortunately, the other party seemed to have forgotten that she had a Qingming jade passed down from her family. Once exposed to poisonous miasma, smoke and other objects, it would quickly fall into a freezing state, and she was awakened by this.
