However, the three of them were not weak in strength. Despite the current situation, they tried to maintain a calm demeanor as much as possible.
Soon, under the leadership of Bing Tianyi, the trio arrived at the vicinity of the location they had previously divined. Looking up at the moonlight, they saw that this place was merely a rundown building. Bing Tianyi recalled that it seemed to have been unmaintained for three or four years. As for why it had not been repaired for such a long time, there were many theories circulating in society.
Some said that during the construction of this building, accidents occurred frequently, leading to its current state. It was unknown how many people had died on this construction site.
Another theory suggested that the company responsible for building this structure went bankrupt, and due to debt issues, no one had taken over the construction since then.
However, these reasons had nothing to do with Bing Tianyi and the others' actions today.
"Be careful, you two. We'll go check it out first," Bing Tianyi said with a smile to Ouyang Tian and Old Huang.
Upon hearing this, Old Huang was the first to respond with a smile, "Don't worry about that; we'll definitely be careful." Old Huang thought to himself that in such a situation, if he wasn't careful, he might end up losing his life for nothing.
Just as Old Huang finished speaking, Ouyang Tian stepped forward and smiled at Bing Tianyi, saying, "Wait a minute. How about I go in first?"
Bing Tianyi quickly shook his head and smiled, "Forget it; let's all go in together."
As a special forces soldier, Ouyang Tian understood one principle: when scouting enemy territory, the fewer people who go in, the better. This way, they wouldn't draw attention. If all three rushed in together and were discovered by the enemy, escaping would become an issue.
Thinking of this, Ouyang Tian couldn't help but continue, "I think it's better if I go in alone. If there are too many people going in, we become an obvious target and risk exposure."
Bing Tianyi thought for a moment and then said directly to Ouyang Tian with a smile, "Alright then, but be careful once you're inside."
"Don't worry," Ouyang Tian said, leaping directly over the two-meter-high wall in front of him.
Bing Tianyi and Old Huang crouched beneath the wall, waiting quietly while gazing at the full moon in the sky. After about seven or eight seconds, Bing Tianyi curiously asked Old Huang, "Do you think we will succeed tonight?"
Old Huang chuckled and replied, "It should be fine."
Hearing Old Huang's laughter, Bing Tianyi sighed, "Old Huang, I've actually been curious for the past three years. Do you think it's better to live an ordinary life or to face great challenges?"
Seeing Bing Tianyi's inquiry, Old Huang pondered briefly before smiling and saying, "Both have their advantages."
"What do you mean by that?" Bing Tianyi asked with curiosity.
Old Huang stated plainly, "Think about it. If a person lives an ordinary life, then wanting to live a life of wealth and luxury becomes impossible. You won't have the funds to enjoy luxury brands or gourmet delicacies even if you want to. But if you can endure life's challenges, sooner or later you'll become wealthy, and at that point, your living conditions will greatly improve."
After Old Huang finished speaking, Bing Tianyi chuckled softly and said, "Old Huang, are you limiting these two questions to just these aspects of life?"
Old Huang, curious and somewhat puzzled, asked Bing Tianyi, "President Bing, what do you mean?"
"I think this way: living an ordinary life has its benefits, but relatively speaking, how significant are those benefits? It's just that you won't encounter certain dangers or conflicts; you'll live comfortably. But from another perspective, how can life be without risks? When we go out, there's a risk of being hit by a car, right? Setting up a stall carries the risk of being checked by street authorities. Even going out for a haircut might lead to someone mistaking you for a prostitute," Bing Tianyi said with a grin as he reflected on recent events.
Upon hearing this, Old Huang smiled wryly and said, "What you're talking about are random occurrences."
"Random occurrences? You're mistaken, Old Huang. I can assure you these things happen every day; it's just that they occur at different times and places. Plus, many incidents go unreported," Bing Tianyi said earnestly with a smile.
Old Huang had been in society for several years, but after leaving the military, he had stayed in school. Later, he followed Bing Tianyi and spent his days driving and doing trivial tasks, never paying attention to the small details of society. So when Bing Tianyi finished speaking, Old Huang simply chuckled and said, "Anyway, these things don't really concern me, so why bother worrying about them?"
As soon as Old Huang finished speaking, Bing Tianyi bluntly replied, "How can they not concern you? Think about it—could any of these things happen to you?"
"First, I wash my hair at home. Second, I don't set up stalls on the street. Third, I have a car. Do you really think what you just mentioned could happen to me?" Old Huang said with a hint of pride in his voice.
Bing Tianyi was left speechless; if Old Huang was going to be so stubborn, he really had no way to explain things to him.
After sitting under the wall for less than ten minutes, Bing Tianyi saw a shadow leap down from the wall. He quickly stood up and prepared himself cautiously before hurriedly walking towards the shadow.
When he reached the figure, Bing Tianyi immediately asked, "What happened?"
Ouyang Tian replied directly, "Boss Bing, I have to hand it to you; let's hurry to the construction site."
Bing Tianyi smiled and the three quickly got into the car. He turned to Ouyang Tian and asked, "Is the person at this construction site?"
Ouyang Tian nodded quickly and said, "Yes, they're at the site right now. I just went to check; there are five people along with their security personnel—over twenty in total."
"Only over twenty?" Bing Tianyi asked curiously.
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Tian smiled wryly and asked, "What's wrong with you? Do you think twenty armed personnel is a small number?"
"That's not right; I remember there should be forty or fifty people. How could there only be over twenty? Did you check carefully?" Bing Tianyi questioned Ouyang Tian with a tone of doubt.
After hearing this, Ouyang Tian said to Bing Tianyi in a very certain tone, "I am sure there are only a little over twenty people, yes, twenty-seven. There aren't many floors built inside; if I can't figure out these few people, then I've wasted my time in the army."
Seeing Ouyang Tian say this, Bing Tianyi sighed, "In that case, let's deal with the Elemental Envoy tonight first. As for the remaining people, I'm sure there are other leaders among them. We can take action when they come looking for us."
Once Bing Tianyi finished speaking, Old Huang and Ouyang Tian didn't ask too many questions. After nodding in agreement, Ouyang Tian took out his phone and quickly began contacting his subordinates to prepare firearms.
When they arrived at the construction site office, Bing Tianyi's group of brothers had not yet rested. Hearing someone knock on the door, Haizi hurriedly got up and went to the door to ask Bing Tianyi with a smile, "Who is it?"
"It's me, open the door."
Upon hearing Bing Tianyi's voice, Haizi quickly opened the door. Seeing Bing Tianyi, Haizi directly asked, "How is it? Did you find their hiding place?"
Before Haizi could finish his sentence, Bing Tianyi looked at him and said clearly, "Quickly get me the brothers' Ba Zi."
"What is Ba Zi?" Haizi asked curiously.
"Their birthdays and the exact time they were born. Also, where their hometowns are. Get it to me right now," Bing Tianyi said with a helpless expression to his brothers in front of him.
Hearing this, the brothers didn’t ask further and began writing down their Ba Zi on paper.
While these brothers were writing their Ba Zi, Bing Tianyi immediately drew a floor plan of the Rundown Building on the table. Having worked in engineering for so many years, drawing a floor plan was second nature to him.
Once he finished drawing, Bing Tianyi took the papers from his brothers and glanced at them before smiling and saying, "Brothers, for tonight's operation, I don't want to hide anything from you. We are facing twenty-seven armed personnel. But don’t worry; our firearms will arrive soon. So now I must emphasize three points: First, everyone must follow my arrangements tonight without any negligence. Second, during the mission, everyone must remain highly vigilant to prevent any accidents. Third, after the mission is over, each of you must hand over your firearms. If anyone loses their weapon for any reason, they will end up in prison for life."
As soon as these words were spoken, the group of brothers nodded in agreement.
However, at that moment, Mouse stepped forward and curiously asked Brother Bing, "Brother Bing, when you said the other side is also a group of armed personnel, what do you mean by that?"
"Don't you understand what that means?" Bing Tianyi asked with a smile.
"I really can't comprehend it," Mouse replied helplessly.
"Are you worried that they outnumber us and that we might be completely wiped out?" Bing Tianyi asked Mouse with a grin.
Mouse shook his head and laughed, "Brother Bing, that's not what I meant. I'm just curious why we have to face so many armed personnel. What are the police and soldiers for? Why don't they take action?"
Seeing Mouse's inquiry, Bing Tianyi felt a bit helpless. He chuckled and said, "How would I know?"
At this moment, Ouyang Tian stepped forward and said with resignation, "Brothers, I'll naturally tell you the reason after the operation is over. But right now, I can't disclose the specifics."
"Brother Ouyang, I think you know that although our brothers are quite capable, we are all under Brother Bing's command. If it weren't for Brother Bing being caught up in this crisis, we wouldn't be helping you at all," Mouse frowned as he spoke.
As the saying goes, those involved are confused while bystanders see clearly. After nearly a night of contemplation, Mouse had figured out what was really going on; simply put, they were being used as pawns by some team.
However, until now, only Mouse among Bing Tianyi's brothers had realized this.
