"Miss - please wait -"
A shout broke through the silence of the mountain forest, startling Cai Wei from her reverie. The echoes kept bouncing in the empty mountains. She paused, turned her head to see who was calling her.
On the nearby hillside, two men in brown brocade clothes were running towards her. Both were tall, roughly 1.9 metres by modern standards and moved with agility and grace. It was obvious at first glance that they had martial training.
Cai Wei stood still, puzzled, and asked: "Are you calling me?"
Having asked, she realized her question was rather stupid. Other than her, there was no one else around. Of course they were calling her!
The lead guard took broad strides, blocking Cai Wei in just a few moves. He extended his hand in the gesture of an invitation, "Miss, please come with me."
