Nan Hua stood still on her place and then patted her horse's neck to guide it towards the nearby village not far from Lin Family. She wanted to make a good use of today in order to prepare for infiltration into Lin Family.
'General Tou should be killed today, so Lin Family will be anxious with the appearance of General Xing and General Yu.'
While these two generals naturally wouldn't enter Lin Family's mountain because they knew about the poisonous mist, they could block the people from Lin Family from going anywhere.
At that time, it was not hard to say that the Lin Family would be in dire situation.
They could only stay holed up.
Not to mention, Long Qian Xing himself was immune to the poisons' mist. To deal with him, they would need to use other more delicate and precious poisons they have made over the years.
…
<Long Qian Xing's side>
Bang!
"It's done." Long Qian Xing kicked the last person and then turned his head to look in Yu Jin's direction. "It's easy, isn't it?"
Yu Jin looked at Long Qian Xing and knew how meticulous this man's preparation was. Even though the other party has only been here for a short period of time, he had already drawn the map and set some people disguised as hunters to give him accurate news of General Tou's movements and whereabouts.
Even though their methods of communication seemed weird for Yu Jin, she had to admit that Long Qian Xing was truly a person who would not fight a losing battle. In such a short period of time, he actually trapped General Tou to death.
"Huh, you're not bad," Yu Jin admitted.
Long Qian Xing chuckled. "If not for you to exhaust General Tou for the past few weeks, I wouldn't be able to finish this so fast. However, there are still many other commanders in nearby cities towards Lin Family."
"I guess it just mean that the work is not over yet." Yu Jin knew very well that they had to seize the advantage before a new general was dispatched. At that time, it would be harder for them to get deeper.
"Hmm." Long Qian Xing looked in the direction of Lin Family's mountain. "My task is just to help you deal with General Tou. I'm going to finish making my map first."
Yu Jin was speechless. "How important is that map for you?"
"It's useful."
Seeing Long Qian Xing departing back, Yu Jin knew that this man didn't want to waste more time with this nonsense. She shook her head and laughed lightly.
For the first time, she felt that her future brother in law was actually quite interesting.
"Oh right, my little sister is going to pay a visit to Lin Family." Yu Jin thought about the letters that Nan Hua gave to her. The letter was so short that Yu Jin felt like pulling Nan Hua's ear so that she could send her more letters, but it was enough to tell Yu Jin that Nan Hua was planning to head to Lin Family.
However, she asked Yu Jin not to go there and instead focus on the cities around. Facing head on with Lin Family was not recommended because of the poison mist around the mountain that can easily kill people.
The Mountain Tribe soldiers were all powerful.
But they didn't have high poison's resistance.
If they tried to get close to Lin Family mountain and ended up being poisoned, Yu Jin would not know where she should go and cry. After all, she didn't want to lose her men just because of such a stupid cause.
"Go back to the temporary headquarter and rest. Tomorrow, we're heading to the smaller cities and deal with the soldiers."
"YES!"
…
<Nan Hua's side>
While Long Qian Xing and Yu Jin finished their mountain battle with General Tou with great victory, she was looking at the information gathered during the day by the people from Dark Moon Organization.
The poison's mist effect, their schedule, their names, and so on.
Everything was complete.
Nan Hua silently memorized the route. There were some paths that she had to take if she wanted to enter the mountain. The disciples from Lin Family would only come down when it was necessary for them to take the herbs.
Some herbs couldn't grow in the high altitude. Since the research of plants and their method of growing was still very primitive, it was necessary for them to pick a suitable location to grow the herbs.
The night passed quietly.
When it was morning, the unsuspecting people from Lin Family went down as usual to take some herbs. There were some of them that needed to be taken care specifically, so the people from Lin Family had to go down from time to time to check.
There were still farmers who would take care of the herbs, but their methods were not as meticulous as these disciples.
Thud!
One of the disciples fell down and Nan Hua switched the clothes while another man pulled the disciple away.
"It's done for the day." One of the disciples stretched. "If only I can pass the monthly exams, I wouldn't have to do this chore."
"Those at the bottoms had no other choice but to do this." Another one sniggered.
"I know, I know. Hmm? Lin Hao, are you done?"
"Yes," Nan Hua replied in a low voice, imitating the young boy who was unconscious at the side. The only reason why she picked this boy was because he was young and also had some similarities in appearance with Nan Hua.
With some makeup, it was easy for her to become Lin Hao.
"That's good. Let's go."
"Yes!"
The group of disciples carried their herbs basket and walked up the mountain road. At this time, Nan Hua was following the group silently while looking around her.
The road was well maintained despite the mist around here.
The mist formed naturally because of high altitude, but the people from Lin Family would burn their medicine to mix it with the mist from time to time, making it poisonous mist.
