Just then, three sharp sounds suddenly echoed through the valley! They instantly pierced through the night's silence, startling everyone in the camp.
Pan Chen looked up at the sky and shouted harshly.
"Signal arrow?! Who fired it?!!" Not only did they hear it, but Ruan Mian also heard the sharp sound.
It was like a flare, shooting straight into the sky.
Shortly after, Pan Chen quickly lifted the tent and said to Ruan Mian, "Miss Ruan, someone has fired a signal. Just in case, we have to leave immediately."
Before Ruan Mian could speak, Pan Chen was already urgently summoning the surrounding soldiers: "Leave everything behind, go grab the grain and salary and go!!"
They had been trained in the barracks and were well-disciplined.
With Pan Chen's order, everyone left the tent at an extremely fast pace.
Shaoxi pulled Ruan Mian aside and said, "Miss Ruan, this signal arrow was originally used for signaling in military camps. We don't know who it might attract, should we also..."
