• Yin Xiaofei and the leader agreed to set the ambush on the stretch with five forks, avoiding a dangerous area where someone could fall from the tunnels.
• The leader told the disciples to beat any newbie they caught half to death, then reassured the youngest Registered Disciple that he would choose the least likely route for him to guard.
