Beiyin Mountain is not a single mountain, but a continuous mountain range.

Although it is far less than the Shiwan Mountains where the headquarters of Heshan Road is located, it is still a vast and boundless area spanning multiple prefectures and counties.

The Northern Yin Mountains are not only home to many poisonous insects and ferocious beasts, but also deep within them dwell demonic beasts that have entered a state of cultivation.

Many unorthodox spiritual practices have also taken root in the mountains.

For example, the "Majiazhai" mentioned by Zhang He many times is located in the Beiyin Mountains and is famous for its expertise in controlling and refining corpses.

They were considered a force to be reckoned with in several surrounding counties; otherwise, they wouldn't have dared to challenge the Sanyin Temple, which was under the jurisdiction of Heshan Dao.

When Bai Cang followed Chen Xunzhao and the others to the foot of Beiyin Mountain, a "large camp" had already been set up there.

Various supplies were transported into the "camp" by a continuous stream of convoys.

In the distant mountains and forests, one could vaguely see human figures moving about, startling birds and beasts, causing chaos and countless birds circling in the sky.

"Looks like none of them are fools!"

Seeing this, Bai Cang couldn't help but chuckle to himself: such a grand display, it's more like a military campaign than a pursuit of a particular person.

With such a commotion, unless that Five Witches Master is a fool, he would have already fled far away. How could he possibly stay in the same place waiting to be caught?

But thinking about it, it makes sense: how much salary do we earn in a month? Is it worth risking our lives?

For most people who encounter this place, if they don't actually meet the Five Witches Master, they're already doing well enough to get paid just to muddle through and cheer.

If you were to actually encounter the Five Witches, you would only worry about not being able to outrun your colleagues.

That's Wolf Exterminator, who once killed the "Immortal Master"!

Who the hell would have the time and inclination to provoke such a terrifying being?

With this in mind, Bai Cang felt reassured, and his anxiety finally subsided somewhat.

"As expected, there are still more smart people than fools in this world!"

Bai Cang felt a little relieved, but then he heard Chen Xunzhao shout loudly: "All of you, do your jobs well! Whoever finds the Five Rampant Thieves will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver, ten Great Health Pills, a three-courtyard mansion, and endless wealth and honor."

"If you dare to slack off, my old rifle won't show any mercy..."

Hmm... not all of them are smart!

"Each person is issued three signal arrows. If you encounter the Five Witches, you must immediately pull the trigger. Otherwise, even if you die in the mountains, you must never use the signal arrows indiscriminately."

"Six people per team, advance to search. Bai Cang, you and Chen Anping will lead the way."

Just then, Chen Xunzhao suddenly called out Bai Cang's name, "Anyone who dares to slack off or leave the group without permission will be punished according to the sect rules."

"Chen Anping, you'll be the supervisor!"

Bai Cang frowned slightly upon hearing this, while Chen Anping simply made a bitter face.

However, under Chen Xunzhao's strong pressure, they dared not say anything more.

However, Bai Cang pretended to walk into the forest for only a few steps before disappearing without a trace, like a python turning over.

Seeing this, Chen Anping opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't dare to stop him.

He wasn't stupid, and he had already witnessed Bai Cang's ruthlessness. How could he possibly listen to Chen Xunzhao and do something as foolish as a mantis trying to stop a chariot?

"Idiot! Useless!"

"What use are you if you can't even keep an eye on one person?"

With a few leaps, Bai Cang disappeared into the depths of the mountains and forests.

The furious roar of Chen Xunzhao could still be faintly heard, drifting in from behind on the mountain wind.

"Shark Arm! I'll make sure you die a gruesome death sooner or later!"

Bai Cang glanced back, then without hesitation, he swerved diagonally around a large circle and made his way towards the camp at the foot of the mountain.
