When struck with bad luck, one could choke even while drinking water. Yan Wang had never had things go his way since entering the bandit's den. After the Sha Hai Group conspired to rebel, they implemented the strategy of ‘cunning rabbits have three caves’ for safety and changed the location of their headquarters once every ten days.

At this time, the headquarters had just been moved to a small hill in Jiangbei, leaning on a mine — Jiangbei did not lack mines like this. If Chang Geng had an expert Mechanic beside him right now, they would remind him of these small mines, for the wooden birds might not be able to fly out in places near the mountain.

Some mines would invalidate compasses and other objects. Even though Lin Yuan’s wooden bird was exquisitely made, its core mechanics relied on a special magnet in the abdomen, which could establish a connection with the magnets carried by individuals of Lin Yuan Pavilion. Wooden birds could only fly in the air using height to bypass the interference. When they were not, circling around the mines, the magnets in the abdomen of all wooden birds would be ruined immediately.

The bird could not fly out. With no other way, Chang Geng had to use a clumsy method — let Liao Ran himself run to send the message. It was the letter Gu Yun's personal guard brought to the capital.

As a result, something went wrong.

The four rebel leaders generally did not have good education. Their level of hobby was very close to old peasants who listened to plays in the temple, referring to themselves as ‘King of Heaven’, ‘King of Earth’ and ‘King of Man’, evoking goosebumps.

Boss Sun was the ‘King of Man’, the ‘King of Heaven’ was the especially stubborn thorn who was extremely vicious and harbored deep hatred towards the court.

The stubborn man originally had great influence. Everyone once wanted to follow him in rebellion, but he now suddenly turned from a big boss to a hard-head minority. After careful consideration, he felt that everything in this started from the ‘King of Man’, who was always unwilling to confront Jiangbei Camp. Holding a grudge against Boss Sun who was ‘greedy for life and afraid of death’, he bribed a trusted underling of Boss Sun, ready to catch him by his weak point and eliminate him.

The result was quite coincidental. The man who had been bribed spied for six to seven days, unable to catch Boss Sun's weak point, but managed to see Liao Ran leaving the headquarters late at night, making contact with people from the court.

When the King of Heaven saw that the man who they had called brother for so long was a hound for the court, he turned furious at once, his little trust in the man collapsed in an instant.
