When asking about the key points, Ye Li even temporarily held Hu Qingshan's wrist and asked him to draw a simple map of the village, telling him the distribution of the guards inside and some secret sentries.
In order to ensure that Hu Qingshan did not hide any key information, Ye Li handed Hu Qingshan over to Lin Shiyu and told him that if he did not come back within three days, he would kill Hu Qingshan because he must have hidden something.
This sentence scared Hu Qingshan so much that he quickly told Ye Li the locations of two more secret sentries, and assured Ye Li that he would tell him everything and would not hide anything anymore.
After that, Ye Li left Lin Shiyu and started to speed up towards Mangxiong Village.
According to Hu Qingshan, Mangxiong Village is very close to Zimu Peak. If you walk about three miles to the northwest, you can see a gently sloping hill. The village is built in that hilly area.
Seeing that Mangxiong Village was indeed not far away, Ye Li did not ask Hu Qingshan to lead the way and went there alone.
With the help of Feng Qing Huan, Ye Li moved at an extremely fast speed and covered the three miles in just two incense sticks of time.
At this time, Xie Qi and his companions had already returned to the mountain village. After receiving the spiritual stones from Xie Qi, Qi Hu and Qi Bao said goodbye to Xie Qi and Qian Yue and returned to Majiazhai.
After obtaining a large amount of spirit stones, Xie Qi and Qian Yue were in a good mood, so they invited each other to go to Xie Qi's residence for a drink in the evening. Now they went back to their respective residences.
Li Xifeng and others were shackled and detained together, waiting to be assigned odd jobs tomorrow.
Not long after the two of them returned, Ye Li, who was extremely fast, had already arrived not far from the outskirts of Mangxiong Village.
Lying on a small hill, Ye Li looked far away in the direction of the mountain village.
The village is surrounded by a bamboo and wood fence, and there are several watchtowers on all four sides, with two guards standing on them at all times.
Ye Li observed the distribution of houses in the village. According to the map drawn by Hu Qingshan before, he quickly found the residence of the boss Xiong Sanba, as well as the residences of Xie Qi and Qian Yue.
The three people lived not close to each other. Xiong Sanba didn't like to be disturbed, so he lived at the back of the village, while Xie Qi and Qian Yue lived in the front of the village.
According to what Hu Qingshan had pointed out before, Ye Li quickly found several secret sentries in the village. They had built very low sheds next to some houses, which were only big enough for one person to sit curled up in.
If Hu Qingshan had not been asked in advance, it would have been difficult for ordinary people to detect these secret sentries when observing.
Even if people see these bamboo sheds, most people would think they are storage places.
Ye Li walked around the outskirts of the mountain stronghold and carefully took note of the distribution of guards and the locations of secret sentries inside.
In the middle of the mountain village, a huge bamboo house quickly caught Ye Li's attention. That was the place that Hu Qingshan had mentioned, which might be used to imprison Li Xifeng and others.
After observing the surrounding environment, I found that the bamboo house was located in the most heavily guarded area of the village. It was not easy to get there.
Every group of patrolling guards will pass through that area, and almost most of the secret sentries can also see that place.
This bamboo house has almost no blind spots in defense. If you want to sneak in, you must dig out the "eyes" around it.
Looking at the sky, it was still early and under the bright sun, Ye Li had no chance to sneak in. He had to wait until nightfall before he could take action.
After finding a secluded place, Ye Li sat down, took out a magic pill and absorbed it while waiting for the night to come.
After Ye Li almost completely absorbed a demon pill, the sun finally set below the horizon and night fell.
Ye Li looked at the lights on in the village and knew that the time was almost up.
He put the unabsorbed demon pill into the Qiankun bag and took out a set of black night clothes.
This was what he bought before leaving the Ye family. He thought of it as a precautionary measure, but he didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.
After changing into a black tight nightgown, Ye Li put on the mask representing his identity as "Feng Li" on his face.
The only regret is that the flame red color of this mask is a little conspicuous. He plans to buy a black mask after this incident, which will be more suitable if he needs to use it again in the future.
After changing his clothes and putting on a mask, Ye Li turned into a gust of breeze again and rushed down the hillside.
When he was near the mountain village, he didn't dare to use the Wind Ring anymore. After all, the talismans had spiritual fluctuations that could be easily detected.
During the day, after observing from a distance for a while, he had planned a relatively easy way to sneak in.
After avoiding the guards outside the mountain village, Ye Li relied on his agility and powerful physical strength to silently jump onto a watchtower in an instant.
At this time, the patrolling guards around were facing away from the watchtower. Even without Feng Qinghuan's help, Ye Li's movements were still as agile as a monkey.
They climbed up the seven-meter-high watchtower silently and in an instant. The two guards on it never thought that someone could avoid the patrol team and climb up the tower so easily without relying on talismans. The moment they saw Ye Li, they didn't even think of warning their companions.
Ye Li didn't dare to use talismans to attack, the light of spiritual energy was too dazzling at night. He just quickly reached out and grabbed the two men's necks, then squeezed them hard.
The powerful force instantly blocked the blood flow above the necks of the two men. They fainted before they could even make any sound.
Ye Li didn't dare to let the two fall, so he could only lie on the ground and temporarily support their bodies with his feet.
Then he took out two long wooden sticks that he had prepared earlier from his Qiankun bag, stuffed them under the clothes of the two guards, and then supported the two men in place.
Although the two people supported by the wooden sticks looked a little stiff, it was dark after all. Even with the lights on, the condition of the two people could not be seen clearly from a distance.
After putting the two unconscious guards in a standing position, Ye Li observed the surroundings through the watchtower and found that no one was paying attention to this side, so he slid down the watchtower.
There was a secret sentry not far ahead. Ye Li wanted to get rid of it first, otherwise he would not be able to go deep into the mountain village.
When sneaking in, Ye Li did not dare to use his spiritual power. After all, there was no guarantee that no one would notice him. If someone discovered him and gave an early warning, his infiltration would fail.
Even if the other party did not notice his intention to save people, they would strengthen their defense, and his success rate would only be lower next time.
After making sure that the patrolling guards were no longer nearby, Ye Li took advantage of the cover of night, kept his hands and feet close to the ground, and quickly crawled to the bamboo shed of the secret sentry like a grass snake, hiding in the corner of a small building.
