Chapter 281 Encirclement and Suppression
Yuan Ziyu didn't hear Huo Xifei's voice for a long time, so she glanced at him and saw Huo Xifei smiling at her.
"I guessed it!" Huo Xifei smiled and stroked Yuan Ziyu's hair, saying, "Originally, I didn't really plan to rely on him. The reason I gave him that bottle of medicine was to have an excuse to protect him later!"
Yuan Ziyou finally understood: "When I gave it to you, did you know that the medicine was fake?"
"Well, it's almost right!" Huo Xifei nodded.
"What if the medicine is real?" Yuan Ziyu asked.
"It doesn't matter if it's true. He's a killer from Youye Tower. He has all sorts of drugs and poisons at his disposal. Even if he has the real drugs and he doesn't use them and secretly keeps them, it doesn't matter. We'll always know whether he's drugged or not!" Huo Xifei said, then he leaned closer to Yuan Ziyu and whispered with a smile, "Besides, don't I have you?"
Yuan Ziyu smiled when she heard this. She knew what Huo Xifei was referring to. She had told Huo Xifei about her sense of smell.
"Then, let's come over quietly the day after tomorrow to drug him?" Yuan Ziyu blinked and said to Huo Xifei, "By the way, we can also see if Xue Ren is truly trustworthy. I put some pollen in the small wine gourd I gave you. We'll know if he's drugged him once we see it!"
"Okay!" Huo Xifei nodded with a smile.
The next two days were very peaceful. Youye Tower did not send anyone to launch a sneak attack. Huo Xifei ordered people to buy the necessary medicinal herbs from nearby towns, and then ordered people to boil them into medicinal juice and distribute it to all the soldiers. Yuan Ziyu took the opportunity to mix the spiritual spring water into it.
On the third day, Huo Xifei ordered several deputy generals and Pingshan to gather 5,000 soldiers outside the valley of Youye Tower before the hour of You, and then he and Yuan Ziyu sneaked into Youye Tower again.
At this time, it was time for dinner in Youye Tower. People were either drinking and playing rock-paper-scissors in groups of three or five, or eating alone in their rooms, or there were patrols walking back and forth along the Youye Tower. It was quite lively.
Yuan Ziyou drove the Qiongjiang Pavilion to the water source. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around to check the water source, he nodded to Huo Xifei and said, "This Blood Blade is quite reliable!"
Huo Xifei understood and nodded with a smile: "Xue Ren did say something quite right!"
"Which one?"
"Although Ghost Face is a bit cold-blooded, he is still very accurate in judging people!"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Ziyou nodded and said, "Ghost Face and Blood Blade do seem to sympathize with each other!"
Next, Yuan Ziyu used the Qiongjiang Pavilion as a cover, walked around the Youye Tower, gave everyone sleeping pills and cartilage powder, and then left the valley and came to the place where the large army gathered.
"Prince!" Seeing Huo Xifei coming back with Yuan Ziyu, Pingshan hurriedly stepped forward and called out.
"Are you all ready?" Huo Xifei asked.
"Yes, Prince!" Pingshan nodded. "However, several deputy generals still seem a little worried!"
Huo Xifei heard this and said, "It's normal for them to be worried, but they just don't have strong enough mental strength!"
"That's right!" Pingshan curled his lips. "If you ask me, these people should be sent to the border for a few years of training. Otherwise, they are so hesitant and afraid of everything. What kind of military commanders are they?"
"They've truly taken it easy!" Huo Xifei sighed softly. These lieutenants had never actually been on the battlefield. They were called military commanders, but they had only risen to the top through family background. "Alright, forget about them. Pass the order down. Set out at twilight hour!"
"yes!"
After Pingshan left, Yuan Ziyu laughed and said, "I don't know. When we get to Youye Tower and find out that it's effortless to wipe them out, I wonder if these people will be so happy that they'll lose their minds."
"Yes!" Huo Xifei raised his eyebrows and smiled!
Because of Huo Xifei's warning last time, several deputy generals did not dare to show their worries, for fear that Huo Xifei would accuse them of disturbing the morale of the army, but they were still worried.
However, when several deputy generals followed the main force and tremblingly crossed the valley and entered the Youye Tower, they found that everyone in the Youye Tower had been drugged and fainted on the ground. They were shocked beyond words, and then ecstatic. They did not expect that this time the annihilation of the Youye Tower would be so smooth. Without waiting for Huo Xifei's order, they took the soldiers and tied up all the unconscious people in the Youye Tower, regardless of gender, age or status. As for the killers, their tendons in their hands and feet were cut to prevent them from counterattacking.
Everyone was tied up in the square of Youye Tower, except for the owner of Youye Tower and Xue Ren!
"Sir, there's no owner of Youye Tower here!" Pingshan whispered to Huo Xifei, "I don't know if he hasn't been found yet, or if he ran away early!"
"Yes, Prince!" Deputy General Liu also said: "Someone actually helped us deal with these people in advance. I wonder if the owner of the building got the news first and ran away!"
"You stay here and keep an eye on these people. Be careful!" After giving the order, Huo Xifei was about to take Yuan Ziyu away.
"Prince, let me go with you!" Pingshan said quickly.
"No need, I'll leave this to you. Remember, you must keep a good eye on these people!" Huo Xifei ordered.
"yes!"
Huo Xifei and Yuan Ziyu had been to Youye Tower twice before and were very familiar with the situation there, so they went directly to the village house where the owner of Youye Tower lived.
Although it is called a village house, it is actually very similar to a small courtyard house, with pavilions, towers, bridges and flowing water. The only difference is that all of these, including the house, are built with bamboo and stones, but it does have a unique charm.
The village house was very quiet and didn't look like anyone was there.
Huo Xifei and Yuan Ziyu did not take it lightly. They knew very well that the owner of Youye Tower had not gone out. They had clearly given the owner of Youye Tower drugs and cartilage powder before.
However, the owner of the building was not seen in the square, and he was nowhere to be seen in the village house. Where did the owner of the building go?
The two men searched the village house inside and out one by one. In fact, the village house had been searched by the soldiers before, and no one was found.
"Wait a minute!" Yuan Ziyu suddenly paused and looked at Huo Xifei: "Brother Xi, there should be someone there!"
Yuan Ziyou pointed to a pavilion and said, "There, there is a bloody smell!"
The smell of blood was very faint, very faint. If Yuan Ziyu didn't have an extraordinary sense of smell, he would not be able to smell it at all.
"Here?" Huo Xifei went up to the pavilion and asked after hearing that.
"Yes!" Yuan Ziyu also came to the pavilion, looked around, and pointed at the stone table in the pavilion and said firmly: "It's right there!"
Huo Xifei hurried forward to take a closer look, and soon he found a clue.
After breaking the mechanism under the stone table and moving it away, Huo Xifei was stunned: "It's you!"
