Upon hearing Wang Han say that he would inquire himself, Zhong Shidao knew that Wang Han would not personally invite the two masters, so he wisely kept quiet. Instead, he picked up his wine bowl, stood up, and said to Wang Han, "Thank you, General, for informing me of the whereabouts and identities of the two masters. This bowl of wine is a toast to you, General."
After saying that, Zhong Shidao drank the wine in one gulp.
"General Zhong, you're too kind. Sit down and have a drink. We have good wine and food; we don't need these fancy formalities." Wang Han didn't get up; he simply picked up his wine bowl and said with a smile, then finished the wine.
Afterwards, the group started eating and drinking, chatting idly.
After several rounds of drinks and several dishes, when everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, Lu Da arrived with fifty soldiers and ten donkey-drawn prison carts. Lu Da had the prison carts parked downstairs at the restaurant and went upstairs to report, "General, the prison carts have arrived."
"Lu Da, sit down and eat and drink quickly." Upon hearing this, Wang Han said with a smile, and then instructed Yang Zhi and the others: "Yang Zhi, you guys take the prisoners down and lock them in the prison cart. When the officials bring the three assassins in a while, break their legs and lock them in the prison cart as well."
"Yes, General." Upon hearing this, Yang Zhi immediately stood up and replied, then quickly led his men to drag the magistrate and others downstairs.
"General, what are you going to do with these... ghosts?" After Yang Zhi left, Zhong Shidao looked at the souls of Zheng Tu and the other three and asked curiously. He had seen the interrogation of the dead before, but how would he deal with these ghosts?
"The four of them!" Upon hearing this, Wang Han picked up an empty wine bottle, pretended to perform some rituals, and then inscribed a sealing array on the bottle. He then used a sealing technique to seal Zheng Tu, Zheng Tu's wife and children, and the innkeeper inside the bottle. Afterward, he waved the bottle at Zhong Shidao and said, "Imprison them in here. Given the evil they've done, let them endure five or six hundred years of loneliness before releasing them to be reincarnated."
After saying that, Wang Han put away the wine bottle that sealed the souls of Zheng Tu and the others.
'It seems I must not offend the General in the future.' Upon hearing this, sweat beaded on Zhong Shidao's forehead. Living meant either beheading or imprisonment until death, five or six hundred years of loneliness, which was a hundred times more painful than living.
"Great General Shenwei, Commander-in-Chief." After a while, the officials and constables who had left earlier returned. Among them were three ragged men covered in wounds. They had obviously been severely beaten before being captured, and were being used to vent their anger. Even their legs had been broken.
"Bang bang..." After the officers arrived in front of Wang Han, they dragged the three men before him. One of them said, "General, the three assassins have been brought here. Please make your decision."
"Put the three of them in the prison cart, and then we'll see what General Zhong decides for you," Wang Han said.
"..." Upon hearing this, Zhong Shidao couldn't help but smile wryly, and dumped these trivial matters on him again.
"Let's go, we've eaten and drunk our fill, we still have to flatten Shaohua Mountain." Seeing that the dishes on the table were almost finished, Wang Han stood up and said.
"Alright, let's go!" Upon hearing this, Zhao Fujin, who had already finished eating, immediately stood up. Li Shishi was also eager to see what kind of real skills Wang Han was talking about, as this was a major event concerning her future. Even Yang Zhi and the others stood up. Besides following him as his subordinates, they were also very curious about the abilities of the people they were following, as this also concerned their future.
"I've been looking forward to seeing the General's abilities for a long time," Zhong Shidao said expectantly as he got up and followed Wang Han.
He was also very curious about what extraordinary ability Wang Han possessed that gave him such confidence, allowing him to be completely unafraid of offending most of the corrupt officials in the court.

As the people bid him farewell with gifts such as eggs and cabbages, Wang Han left Huayin County. In addition to ten prison carts, his entourage also included a cart full of agricultural products. Behind Wang Han's entourage followed many people who wanted to witness the true abilities of the Divine General.
Shaohua Mountain is not far from Huayin County, only about 40 li of mountain road. It takes about a day to walk with the team. We set off from Huayin at noon and arrived at the foot of Shaohua Mountain just after Hai Shi (9 pm).
"General, I'll lead men up the mountain to scout!" Yang Zhi volunteered as soon as they reached the foot of Shaohua Mountain. This was a chance to prove himself.
“I’ve already scouted the area. Those bandits are preparing to move. They must have heard that I’m coming to wipe them out.” Upon hearing this, Wang Han shook his head and said.
"When did the General conduct reconnaissance?" Upon hearing this, Zhong Shidao and the others were puzzled.
"This is a method of perception that allows you to know what is happening within a certain distance without seeing or hearing it," Wang Han explained.
"Is it like those legendary immortals who can know someone has arrived without leaving their mountain gates?" Zhao Fujin asked.
"That's one way to understand it! The difference is that some immortals rely on divination, while others rely on perception." Wang Han nodded.
"How does the General intend to suppress the bandits?" Zhong Shidao asked.
"Don't scare your eyes out." Upon hearing this, Wang Han smiled mysteriously, then flew into the air. After reaching a height of about 100 meters, a large amount of blue energy burst forth from Wang Han's body.
To everyone's astonishment, the blue energy seemed to be confined by a humanoid mold, forming a blue giant, Susanoo, hundreds of meters tall, clad in closed blue armor. Zhong Shidao remembered that the blue giant's armor was the same style as the black armor Wang Han wore when he first met him, but its color was a lightning-blue.
