After finishing their meal, they transferred to an ox cart and started on their way to another small town.

On the way, Father Zhao suddenly said: "Do you know? I always feel like someone is following us."

Zhao Yimu, Zhao Ermu and Zhao Sanmu all nervously clenched the weapons in their hands, while Zhao Zhizhi followed Wei Shao closely.

Wei Shao said in a deep voice: "It seems that our guess is correct. Everyone, be prepared for battle and be sure to protect yourself."

"Okay!" everyone responded.

Finally arriving at the next place, when they got off the carriage, they felt a cold atmosphere.

There are few people on the street and most shops are closed.

Zhao Zhizhi felt a little uneasy, so she secretly pulled Wei Shao's sleeve: "Do you think there is any problem here?"

Wei Shao glanced around and frowned: "I also feel something is wrong. Please be careful and don't act separately."

They carefully crossed the street and arrived at a seemingly ordinary house.

Wei Shao stepped forward and knocked on the door. The door opened quickly, and a middle-aged woman poked her head out. She was stunned when she saw them.

"Who are you?" she asked doubtfully.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Zhizhi immediately stepped forward and explained: "Auntie, we are travelers passing by. Because we encountered some troubles, we want to stay here for one night."

The middle-aged woman hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Come in."

Everyone entered the house, and the middle-aged woman arranged rooms for them.

"This place is no better than an inn. The conditions are simple, so you can make do with it," she said.

Zhao Zhizhi said gratefully: "Thank you very much, aunt."

The middle-aged woman smiled, shook her head, turned and left.

After everyone entered the room and closed the door, Zhao Zhizhi couldn't help but ask: "Do you think this lady is reliable?"

Wei Shao pondered for a moment, "There seems to be no problem at the moment, but we still have to be more careful."

As night falls, the house becomes quiet.

Wei Shao and Zhao Zhizhi were in the same room, sitting side by side and talking in low voices.

"Wei Shao, I'm a little worried." Zhao Zhizhi said softly.

"I know, don't worry, I will do my best to protect you." Wei Shao comforted softly.

Zhao Zhizhi raised his head, his eyes shining with determination, "I know you are powerful, but I am more worried about the safety of the villagers."

Wei Shao was silent for a moment, "I have sent people to protect the people in Xiaohe Village, don't worry."

Zhao Zhizhi threw herself into his arms, "You are so kind."

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, and the moonlight outside the window shone on them, reflecting peace and beauty.

However, in this quiet night, danger was slowly approaching them.

Outside the house, a dark figure quietly appeared, and he quietly observed what was going on inside the house.

His eyes revealed coldness and cruelty, like a beast lurking in the dark.

The black shadow held a sharp dagger in his hand, which glowed coldly in the moonlight.

He took a deep breath and was about to take action when suddenly a figure flashed across and bound him tightly.

The shadow was startled and tried to struggle, but found that he could not move.

Several guards appeared behind him, their gazes as sharp as sharp knives.

It turned out that Wei Shao had already been prepared.

He quietly arranged for guards to guard the surroundings to ensure their safety.

In the house at night, candles flickered, and a faint light illuminated the main hall.

Wei Shao and others sat together with solemn expressions.

"The black shadow has been recruited. It is the enemy's spy." The guard said in a deep voice.

"I just said we can't let down our guard easily." Zhao Yimu frowned, a trace of regret flashing in his eyes.

"The important thing now is that we know the enemy's plan." Zhao Zhizhi analyzed calmly, "They plan to sneak attack us."

"In this case, we have to take a pre-emptive strike and catch them off guard before they take action." A trace of cruelty flashed in Wei Shao's eyes.

"A good idea, but we have to plan it carefully." Zhao Zhizhi nodded in agreement.

Several people were discussing in low voices. The moonlight outside the window was dim and the stars were dotted.

They knew in their hearts that this battle would be difficult, but they were willing to pay any price to return to the capital smoothly.

Wei Shao quietly left the house with his guards, and they walked quickly along the path.

The moonlight shines on the road, giving off a layer of silvery light.

Their footsteps were particularly clear in the quiet night. In order not to alert the enemy, they tried to keep their footsteps as light as possible.

On the way, they met several martyrs who were also heading to the enemy's camp. Everyone nodded and greeted each other with a determined light in their eyes.

They knew that this battle would be extremely brutal, but they had no fear.

Finally arriving at the enemy's camp, they finally arrived at the outskirts of the enemy's camp. They lurked in the dark and observed the enemy's movements.

Those people's so-called looseness obviously means that the enemy has not yet taken action.

They quickly set up an ambush and waited for the enemy's arrival.

In the night, their hearts were tense, ready for any sudden battle.

Suddenly, a faint light caught their attention.

It's the enemy!

They held their breath, gripped their weapons, and prepared to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy.

After confirming the enemy's deployment, Wei Shao decisively ordered an attack.

As a burst of screams pierced the night sky, the battle officially began.

Fire exploded, and the sound of swords clashing echoed above the camp.

The enemy obviously did not expect them to strike first and was caught off guard for a moment.

They rushed into the enemy camp like tigers descending from the mountain and started a fierce battle.

The lights and shadows of swords intertwined into a gorgeous scene, and every figure leaped with determination and determination in the darkness.

Wei Shao took the lead and charged at the front line, slashing the enemy bravely and fearlessly. Every attack was merciless and directed at the vital point, making the enemy retreat in fear.

Holding a long sword, he rushed towards an enemy bravely, slashed the enemy's head with one knife, and chopped him to the ground.

Upon seeing this, other enemies retreated, but Wei Shao's men had already rushed forward and started a fierce fight with them.

Some guards hid in the dark and shot at the enemy with bows and arrows.

Arrows shot out like raindrops, and many enemies fell to the ground.

After a fierce battle, the enemy was finally repulsed.

They quickly swept the battlefield,

Wei Shao stood in the center of the camp, looking at the mess and casualties of the enemy with mixed feelings in his heart.

Although they won this battle, they also paid a heavy price.

"You take the wounded back first." Wei Shao broke the silence, "I will take the people to clean up here."

"Yes." His subordinate responded.

Under the moonlight, they quietly left the camp and embarked on the journey back to their house.

After Wei Shao took care of things here, it was almost dawn when he went back.

"You're back!"

Zhao Zhizhi waited in the house worriedly all night, and was relieved when he saw him come back.
