Alert! Miracle doctor released from prison

"Let's start with those two Miao girls at the counter!" Ibu glanced at them.

"What do you mean?" Old Xie asked, looking back. "Ibrahimovic, you're not thinking of using torture to extract a confession, are you?"

Ibu rolled his eyes: "That's a last resort. If we really want to extract a confession, why don't we just storm the Gu King's Palace!"

"We need to spread rumors first!"

"Tell the people in the Miao village that we know this is an illusion and we are searching for the key to the formation!"

"If they find out, they'll definitely take it seriously and put extra protection on the eye. Then, their weakness will naturally be exposed!"

Old Xie's eyes lit up: "Ibrahimovic, I didn't realize you could be so clever sometimes! This idea is pretty good!"

Ibrahimovic's face immediately darkened: "Old Xie, what do you mean?!"

"Do I usually act like an idiot?"

puff!

Chen Huo and Murong Bingyun almost burst out laughing.

"Cough, no, Ibu, from the first day I met you, I knew you were an exceptionally intelligent kid!" Old Xie quickly flattered him.

Next, they started acting out each other's stories.

He described the illusions and the array's core in a very detailed and convincing way, deliberately making sure that outsiders could understand him clearly.

"Are you all full? Let's go for a walk outside!"

After spreading the news, the group got up and walked outside.

Before leaving, Chen Huo glanced at the two Miao girls at the counter.

Seeing that they looked calm and normal, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

"How's it going? Have they made a move?" Old Xie asked in a low voice.

Chen Huo shook his head: "Not for now!"

"Never mind them, the message has already been sent out, they'll take action eventually!" Ibu waved his hand. "Let's split up and look around the Miao village now, see if we can find the location of the array's core!"

"good!"

The three groups split into three routes.

They each began their search.

Shortly after confirming that they had left the dormitory building, the two sales assistants who had been laughing and joking to themselves immediately changed their expressions.

"How's it going? Did they leave?"

"Let's go!"

"I didn't expect them to be able to see through the illusion. If they find the core of the formation, it'll be troublesome!"

"Hmph, the key to the formation isn't so easy to find. You stay here and guard it; I'll go report!"

After saying that, one of the girls walked out, making several turns, and finally entered a very secluded little house in the alley, where she knocked on the door.

The door creaked open automatically.

The younger sister slipped inside, bowed, and said, "Greetings, Priest!"

In the dim light, an elderly man with a cane in his hand was sitting cross-legged on the ground.

He wore a long robe, and his hat covered his eyes, revealing only half of his gaunt face.

If Chen Huo and his group were present, they would definitely have recognized him.

It was the same old man I saw in the Gu King's Palace last night!

"What's going on?" the priest asked slowly.

"Report back to the priest, the group of corpse drivers have realized they are in an illusion and are searching for the key to the formation, attempting to break it!" the younger sister immediately said.

"Oh?" The priest's expression changed slightly, clearly surprised. "I underestimated them. I didn't expect them to discover the problem so quickly!"

"But that's normal; an illusion is still an illusion, and you can always sense it!"

"Priest, if they find the array's core, we might not be able to trap them!" the younger sister said gravely. "Should we protect the core, or should we relocate immediately?"

After a moment's hesitation, the priest countered, "Were you saying they were having breakfast downstairs and discussing this matter?"

"That's right!" the younger sister nodded.

The priest didn't speak, but a sneer appeared on his lips: "Heh, all's fair in war!"

"This approach is utterly clumsy!"

"They want us to reveal the core of the formation ourselves? Not so easy!"

The younger sister was taken aback for a moment, then reacted quickly: "Priest, do you mean they deliberately passed the message to me, hoping to throw us into disarray and find a flaw in our strategy?"

"If they were truly confident in finding the array's core, would they be discussing it so openly, and letting you all hear it?" The priest's lips still held a mocking smile. "Give the order: everyone, hold your positions and do not make any unusual moves!"

"Our strategic core isn't something they can just find so easily!"

"Let them be!"

"Yes!" The younger sister accepted the order and respectfully withdrew.

Time passed second by second.

Chen Huo and his men searched from morning until nightfall, but found no clues whatsoever.

Finally, he met up with Lao Xie and Ibu in the room.

"So, have you found anything?" Chen Huo asked.

Old Xie shook his head.

Ibrahimovic also shook his head.

Clearly, nothing was gained!

"This shouldn't be happening!" Ibuki stroked his chin. "Logically, if someone noticed the illusion, they would at least take some action!"

"But after a whole day, we couldn't find anything unusual about them!"

"That's really strange!"

"Just because this little girl is naive doesn't mean everyone else is easily fooled!" Chen Huo said. "We were too hasty; we were too obvious when spreading the message!"

"Anyone with a bit of experience should be able to tell something's wrong!"

"They must have seen through our plan and chosen to remain inactive!"

"That was indeed too hasty!" Old Xie sighed, his brow furrowed. "What are we going to do now?"

"The longer this drags on, the worse it will be for us!"

"They might have already looted all the treasures of Miao territory, and we're still wandering around aimlessly!"

Ibrahimovic scratched his head; there was no other way for the time being.

Murong Bingyun suggested, "Since we can't fool them, let's just play our cards straight!"

"Forcefully storm the Gu King's Palace to capture the person, forcing them to hand over the array's core, or directly dispel the illusion!"

"Damn it, let's do it!" Ibu slammed his fist on the table. "Just because we're not showing our teeth doesn't mean we're pushovers!"

"They're treating us like monkeys, making fun of us. They really think we're easy to bully!"

"Brother Chen, with your strength, you should be able to suppress that person from the Gu King's Palace!" Old Xie said. "How about you take the lead in the attack, and we'll provide support from the sidelines?"

"No problem!" Chen Huo nodded. "However, even if we capture that person from the Gu King's Palace, he might not obey us!"

"At that point, we won't be able to do anything about him, so we need to prepare for a two-pronged approach!"

"How so?" Old Xie asked.

"It's simple, use everyone's strength to put psychological pressure on them!" Chen Huo said, revealing his thoughts. "Spread the word about the illusion and the array's core. There are quite a few martial arts forces coming to the Miao village; since they're all after the treasure, they certainly won't stand idly by!"

"Let the whole Miao village descend into chaos, the more chaotic the better!"

"That makes sense!" Old Xie slapped his thigh and turned to his two apprentices behind him, saying, "I'm leaving this matter to you two. And be quick about it!"
