Take the initiative to attack

  "What a handsome guy, how did he become so scary at night." The teammate's whisper was very small, but Yang Shuoming still heard it clearly and couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart.

  For Yang Shuo Ming, there was no need for torches at all. Even without the help of "Super Computer Eyes", his eyes could still identify directions in the dark.

  Yang Shuo Ming walked in the front with a horse, Xu Yuan Jin and the security guards followed closely behind him, advancing quickly in the dark.

  Soon, Yang Shuo Ming and the security guards arrived at the depths of the cave, but just as they did, new information suddenly appeared in Yang Shuo Ming's eyes. Yang Shuo Ming was slightly stunned and stopped in his tracks.

  "What's wrong?" Xu Yuanjin asked immediately when he saw Yang Shuoming stop.

  "True enough," said Yang Shuo Ming, pointing towards a direction in the darkness, "there's a fork in the road over there."

  After listening to Yang Shuo Ming's words, a security guard holding a torch walked in the direction he pointed, and indeed, under the illumination of the firelight, an entrance appeared there.

  "I don't know where this hole leads to," said Yang Shuoming, pointing in another direction. "That hole should be the one leading into the well."

  "Didn't you notice it when you walked here last time?" Xu Yuanjin asked.

  "At that time I was in a hurry and didn't have time to take a closer look." Yang Shuo Ming replied.

  "That's interesting." Xu Yuanjin nodded thoughtfully.

  The security guards all focused their attention on Xu Yuanjin, who rubbed his chin and looked at Yang Shao-ming, jokingly saying: "Why don't you see if this new road can lead to Hei Lu's house?"

  "Let's just do it this way. I'll go this way, and you can go that way." Yang Shuoming nodded in satisfaction, attracting the surprised gaze of several security guards.

  Yang Shuo Ming briefly told Xu Yuan Jin and the security guards about the situation near the well, and was about to crawl into the newly appeared hole when Xu Yuan Jin suddenly pulled him back.

  "You really think you can sneak in alone?" He looked at Yang Shuo Ming with some surprise, "Do you really think you can handle Hei Lu by yourself?"

  "We'll see when the time comes." Yang Shuo Ming smiled ambiguously.

  In his view, capturing this notorious bandit leader would definitely be easier than dealing with the future black society bosses and regular army special forces.

  "Bring two people with you, and there will be someone to take care of you then." Xu Yuanjin didn't know what Yang Shao Ming was thinking in his heart, but he put away his smile and said seriously.

  Yang Shuo Ming thought for a moment and nodded, "I want two people who are good at using flying knives."

  Xu Yuanjin smiled and turned around, commanding: "Lei Baotou! Zhao Erhu! You two follow Mr. Yang for a trip!"

  As two voices responded, two security guards of different heights walked up and stood in front of Yang Shuoming. The older guard, nicknamed "Lei Tou", looked sturdy but seemed to be getting on in years, with a gentle expression and a smile on his face; while the younger guard, nicknamed "Zhao Erhu", had short hair and a black goatee, with a fierce look on his face, his eyes wide with discontent as he followed Yang Shuoming.

  "A moment later, they encountered bandits. When you can use a knife, try not to use a gun." Yang Shouming gave a simple order and stepped forward into the dark cave.

  Lei Ba Tou and Zhao Er Hu looked at Yang Shuo Ming with surprised eyes as he disappeared into the cave, then turned to Xu Yuan Jin. Xu Yuan Jin nodded, Lei Ba Tou took a torch and followed Zhao Er Hu into the cave.

  Yang Shuoming, walking in the front, felt the light behind him. He stopped and waited for his two companions to catch up, then he quickly moved forward again.

  The winding road went on for a long time, and after passing through a relatively narrow path, a stone slab staircase appeared, and the front suddenly became spacious.

  Three people went down the stairs. Yang Shuo Ming saw what seemed to be several people crouching in the corner, and his heart skipped a beat. He immediately drew out his "Xiao Long" combat knife with a reverse grip.

  Although it was unclear what had happened ahead, Lei Ba and Zhao Erhu saw Yang Shuo Ming's movements and simultaneously raised the rifles in their hands. However, Lei Ba seemed to have remembered Yang Shuo Ming's previous order, so he put his rifle back on his back while using his hand to press down the muzzle of Zhao Erhu's gun, then drew out a sharp ring-handled dagger. Zhao Erhu understood and also pulled out a similar dagger.

  Yang Shuo Ming crouched down like a big cat, gripping the steel knife tightly, staring fixedly at the figure in front of him, but the other party just sat there, not moving at all.

  Yang Shuo Ming stared for a while, then stretched out his left hand to signal Lei to pass the torch to him. Lei carefully handed the torch over to Yang Shuo Ming's hands. After taking the torch, Yang Shuo Ming walked forward a few steps, and with the light of the fire, when he saw clearly what the figure in front was, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, straightened up, turned his head and said: "It's okay, come over."

  Lei Ba Tou and Zhao Er Hu exchanged a glance, cautiously approached Yang Shuo Ming's side. When they saw what was sitting there, Lei Ba Tou immediately knelt down, clasped his hands together and bowed several times. Meanwhile, Zhao Er Hu stood beside Yang Shuo Ming with a relieved expression, revealing an awkward smile on his face.

  Sitting there were several Buddhist statues of real human size, and beside them were piled up various types of Buddha statues.

  Yang Shuo Ming gazed at the exquisite colored plastic arhat statues in front of him, illuminated by the firelight, and couldn't help but secretly admire them.

  These colorful arhat statues are vivid and lifelike, with solemn and majestic expressions. It can be said that they are vividly alive. Yang Shouming, who has a good understanding of traditional Chinese culture, almost confirmed at first glance that these should be the three-color large arhats from the Song and Yuan dynasties. If placed in later generations, they would absolutely qualify as national treasure-level cultural relics.

  "May all the Arhats bless us, this time we've destroyed Hei Zizhong's old nest. When we return, I'll definitely rebuild the mountain gate for all the Arhats..." Lei was still there kowtowing to the Arhat. Seeing his actions, Yang Shaoming couldn't help but secretly smile.

  "Stop kowtowing!" Zhao Erhu said with a hint of amusement. "Can't you see? This place is dead, we can't get out!"

  "What?" Lei's head jerked up in surprise, but he still finished his obeisance before standing up.

  Yang Shuo Ming looked at the big Arhats with a thoughtful expression, as if he had understood something. He held up his torch and circled around before starting to tap gently on a section of earthen wall with his fist. As he tapped, he listened intently.

  Soon, Yang Shuo Ming stopped at a place and after knocking several times, he started digging on the wall with the knife in his hand.

  "The other side of this wall should be the Scripture Recitation Building." He said while digging.

  Lei and Zhao Erhu understood what he was going to do, and they also started using their daggers to help him dig the wall. Before long, black bricks and rotten wood were dug out one after another.

  Zhao Erhu, who was stronger, dug faster. After a while, he seemed to feel that this method of work was too inefficient and took two steps back, took a deep breath, let out a loud cry, and kicked the earth wall with one foot.

  Seeing his action, Yang Shuo Ming wanted to stop him but it was too late. He immediately pulled Lei back and retreated.

  "Bang!" With a dull thud, the earth wall suddenly collapsed, and the entire cave was instantly filled with flying dust. Immediately afterwards, shrill screams came out one after another.

  At that moment when the light was shining brightly, Yang Shuo Ming suddenly rushed out like a leopard.

  "Who the hell is there..." A naked bandit had just sat up from his bed, and Yang Shuo Ming was already in front of him, a lightning-fast knife cutting across the opponent's throat.

  The bandit covered his throat, which was spraying blood, with both hands, his eyes wide open, and a gurgling sound came from his mouth as he fell to the ground. Another bandit who was sleeping opposite him had just sat up, looking over here with sleepy eyes, clearly still not understanding what had happened. Yang Shouming flicked his hand, and the "Hao Long" combat knife flew straight out, stabbing into his throat.

  At this time, the other two bandits in the house had discovered Yang Shuo Ming. Perhaps they were frightened by the sight of Yang Shuo Ming instantly killing their two companions. The two did not pick up the weapons at hand to counterattack as Yang Shuo Ming imagined, but instead ran towards the door together.

  Two bandits were about to rush out of the door, but Lei Baotou and Zhao Erhu had already thrown out the daggers in their hands and rushed into the chanting building. The two bandits only managed to shout "Someone's coming..." before one covered his chest and the other covered his waist and fell to the ground.

  Yang Shuo Ming had already pulled out the "Xiao Long" combat knife from the bandit's corpse, rushed to the side of these two bandits, and with extremely swift movements, he slashed each of them in the back of their necks. The two bandits died instantly.

  Yang Shuo Ming's gaze swept across the entire room, with the cursor in his eyes constantly indicating the target information in the room and giving a "safe" prompt.

  "These damn people! They actually turned the scripture recitation hall into a brothel!" Lei's gaze fell upon the hostages tied to the pillars, and he couldn't help but curse.

  "Shut up!" Yang Shuo Ming sternly glared at the two of them, swiftly moved to the half-open door and began observing outside. Lei Ba and Zhao Er Hu exchanged a glance, twisted their mouths, and pulled out the dagger from the bandit's corpse.

  Yang Shuo Ming cautiously looked out from the doorway, all around was quiet, only in the distance on the earthen castle wall of the fortress could a faint firelight be seen flickering.

  "Put down all the meat tickets!"

  Yang Shuo Ming said, turned around and came to a hostage, swung his knife to cut off the rope that bound him, Lei Ba Tou and Zhao Er Hu also started to take down the hostages from the pillars one by one.
