On the main road, not long after Hu Yicheng and the other people left the gazebo, an arrow was shot from the nearby forest.
The arrow came so suddenly that everyone was shocked. Fortunately, they were quite alert because they just had a conflict with Ou Yangming and the other big men, so one of the cavaliers moved and narrowly dodged it.
Nonetheless, everyone was enraged. Several cavaliers got off their horses and retrieved their shields from the horsebacks, then they approached the forest quickly. They moved orderly, which made it clear that they had been training for years.
Normal people could not have been so calm in the tense situation; only soldiers who had been to battlefields had such quality.
Nevertheless, as the soldiers entered the forest while risking being shot by arrows, they could only see a figure that was about to disappear. The person turned around when he was far away and made a gesture of contempt at the soldiers.
