Chapter 351: Jumping Down (1)

Facing Zhou Jing’s murderous gaze, Instructor Hu was scared out of his wits. He answered whatever was asked, afraid that if he was too slow, he would lose his life.

Zhou Jing asked a few questions and basically understood the identities of Commander Deng and the other three as well as the current situation.

“No wonder this group of officials is so strange. The timing of their arrival is also not right. It turns out that they were ordered at the last minute to let a group of officers from different departments bring the officials to capture me… Moreover, I didn’t expect this Huang family and He family’s old masters to go to invite the magistrate today, so they’re not at home…”

Zhou Jing felt that the situation had gotten a little thorny.

His mind raced, thinking of the possibilities before he suddenly spoke,

“Brothers, take off three sets of the guards’ clothes. We’ll change into them.”

Gao Yun’s eyes widened, “Brother, what are you doing?”

Zhou Jing pulled Instructor Hu up from the ground and patted his other intact shoulder as he gravely spoke,

“There has been a change in plan. Let’s take a detour to the Spring Rain Restaurant. I believe Instructor Hu will be willing to lead the way.”

Instructor Hu’s heart trembled as he hurriedly said, “Sir, what are you trying to do?!”

Gao Yun and Fang Zhen were also shocked when they heard of his next location.

Zhou Jing’s expression did not change as he replied, “Of course it’s to get rid of the heads of the Huang family and the He family. If they are still alive, with their connections and methods, even if their family is greatly injured, they can still stand tall, albeit barely. They still have to recover their losses from the people. In the future, their exploitation will become even worse. If we don’t get rid of the leader, the impact of us fighting these two families will be greatly reduced.”

“I see. You scared me. I thought Brother was going to kill the magistrate.”

Gao Yun heaved a sigh of relief.

However, just as he finished speaking, Gao Yun saw Zhou Jing staring at him silently. He could not help but be stunned. Then, his expression changed slightly as he hurriedly said,

“Brother, killing a rich and heartless tyrant is a completely different crime from killing a high official of the court. This… this is treason!”

Zhou Jing waved his hand and frowned, “I didn’t say that I would kill the magistrate. I’m going to kill the two family heads this time, but do we have to retreat when the magistrate is there? We’ll see when the time comes.”

“Then will we still have time to visit the remaining two noble families?” Fang Zhen could not help but ask.

“It’s hard to say. Let’s do our best.”

Zhou Jing shook his head in response.

It was very difficult to control the unexpected factors when making a plan. Previously, he could not predict the itinerary of the He and Huang families, which resulted in the current situation.

Since the situation had changed, he would act according to the situation. After some consideration, he felt that he should eliminate the He and Huang families completely, then look for trouble with the remaining two families in the future. For the time being, he should at least finish what he started.

Moreover, in the plan, eliminating all four noble families was the ideal situation. If he could not do it, it did not matter. He could just do up to the best of his abilities.

At this moment, Instructor Hu endured the pain and hurriedly advised him,

“Heroes, this plan will definitely not work! Even if you disguise yourself as soldiers, the soldiers scattered previously will recognize your faces. It’s impossible for the three of you to blend into the soldiers. Moreover, I’m not the commander of this trip. The one who jumped off the wall just now is the one giving the orders. Even if I bring the three of you out, I can’t order the soldiers outside to go elsewhere…”

“Brother, this piece of sh*t makes sense. If we expose ourselves, no matter how useless the soldiers outside are, they won’t mistake us.” Fang Zhen thought for a moment and nodded.

Zhou Jing shook his head before speaking,

“Who said that I’m going to blend in with the soldiers? There’s no need to go through so much trouble. We’ll avoid the group of soldiers outside later and find a gap to slip away so that the soldiers won’t see us. Then, the three of us will separate from the soldiers and follow Instructor Hu straight to Spring Rain Restaurant. We’ll change into the clothes of the soldiers only to cover up slightly and deceive the passersby. Even if the commoners see us, they won’t suspect anything. At most, they’ll think that we’re a few defeated soldiers, and will not find trouble with us… Bringing Instructor Hu along is just a precaution.”

“I see.”

Gao Yun and Fang Zhen came to a realization.

They had just thought that Zhou Jing wanted to disguise himself and sneak into the army to do something stealthy. They could not help but mutter to themselves that it was too risky. Only now did they realize that it was not the case. His plan turned out to be surprisingly easy and straightforward.

It was not that difficult to avoid the soldiers outside. The Huang residence was wealthy and had once forcefully taken over the surrounding land at a low price, so the residence occupied a large area. The number of soldiers outside was not enough to surround the entire Huang residence, and there were many areas that were missed.

Moreover, his apostle’s map radar could show where there were people and where there were no people. It was easy to avoid detection.

The soldiers who had entered the residence to chase after them had long been frightened away. The servants also fled. At this moment, there was no one around. The three of them quickly pulled off the clothes of the soldiers on the ground and quickly changed.

Instructor Hu was naturally unwilling to help. If he did this, he would not be in a good state even if he survived. However, his life was in the hands of others, and he did not want to die like this.

He could only pray to himself that the restaurant would be empty by the time he arrived.

Not long after, the three of them had changed their clothes. They were dressed like soldiers and had even thrown dust on their faces. At first glance, their disguises could not be seen through.

Zhou Jing followed the map radar and found an unguarded courtyard wall outside. He brought the few of them out, landing in an empty alley, before they pulled Instructor Hu along towards the Spring Rain restaurant.

…

Meanwhile, Commander Deng had ran as if his butt had been set on fire. He jumped out of the courtyard with a bang and climbed over a few walls with his hands and feet before escaping the Huang residence and returning to the main street.

He hurriedly met up with the officers and soldiers waiting outside the residence. Even though he was surrounded by the officers and soldiers, his limbs were still weak from the lingering fear of what he had just witnessed.
