To set the trap, Ma Lijin had restored every arrangement in the plaza.
Back then, the central plaza had not only served as the processing area for harvested grain—the drying area—but also had a parking area on one side.
When the farm owner came here for vacation and recreation with a group of friends and relatives driving over, there naturally had to be a parking area. That kept things from getting in the way and made centralized parking more convenient.
Therefore, the farm road had been built directly to one side of the plaza, close to the main house. The central plaza was also paved with concrete to make drying crops easier.
So after excavating and burying everything, Ma Lijin had people restore it all. That was to ensure the enemy would not notice anything. To erase the traces completely, they had even covered the area with turf and loose soil, all to make sure no one would spot anything suspicious.
All of this had been completed in just a few hours, at the cost of tremendous effort. To ensure it would not be discovered, they had checked the trap locations several times. Some areas had even been covered with another layer of loose soil, just to ensure they would not be noticed.
Now Chen Mo had parked his car not far from the entrance to the plaza. Why? Had he discovered the traps here? Or had he noticed something else?
Ma Lijin hurriedly grabbed his walkie-talkie and told all the ambushers not to make a sound, to remain calm, make no movements, and stay quietly where they were.
He also notified the group of masters he had called in for support, telling them to remain quiet for now and wait until the target entered the trap before acting. Of
