Su Huaiyue raised her head and looked at him, her expression softening a little: "It's just water from a spring I encountered on the road, nothing special."
Wei Che nodded secretly, but he also felt that this person was hiding many secrets that he didn't know.
However, he didn't want to press the issue any further.
As night fell, everyone, exhausted after a whole day, quickly fell asleep, their snoring echoing slowly through the woods.
The night wind was cool, so Wei Che put on his coat and left the camp.
He walked along the path towards the designated location.
Not far away, several figures dressed simply but with firm steps were patrolling the village, as if waiting for something.
Finally, they saw Wei Che's figure in the moonlight, and they moved nervously but made no sound.
Wei Che was alert and pretended to be calm as he slowly approached those people and asked in a deep voice, "Who is it?"
The leader carefully looked at him for a moment, then finally smiled with relief: "Master Wei Che?! We are from the Wei Family Army."
The moment he heard the familiar name, Wei Che felt a little relieved, but he still maintained a wary look on his face.
"So it's you guys."
Wei Che's voice carried a hint of surprise and joy.
"Master, we finally see you."
A soft but slightly hoarse voice responded.
An old soldier of the Wei family army walked out from the shadows, his face showing unconcealable excitement.
"Why are you here?"
Wei Che lowered his voice, his tone full of questions and concerns.
"We were ambushed outside and were injured, so we had to hide here temporarily."
The old soldier whispered, "Only after seeing you did we dare to come out."
Wei Che frowned tightly, anger and helplessness emerging in his heart.
He glanced at those familiar and haggard faces, feeling a mixture of emotions.
The Wei family army, once brave on the battlefield, has now become exiles.
"How dare these people treat the Wei family like this,"
The old soldier gritted his teeth and said, "The Wei family was tragically exiled, and the Wei family army is now in disarray, forced to this point."
Another soldier's eyes were also filled with tears: "Yes, Master, we must take revenge."
Wei Che was silent for a moment, his thoughts surging like waves.
The situation is complicated now and he must act cautiously.
"Hold still for now,"
Wei Che instructed in a low voice, his deep eyes filled with determination.
"I will find a way to contact everyone and take action at the right time."
Just then, a burst of light footsteps was heard. The person was breathing slightly, obviously jogging all the way over.
Wei Che turned around hurriedly, squinting his eyes slightly, trying to identify the source of the slight sound in the darkness.
At this moment, his heartbeat quickened and his hands clenched unconsciously, ready to deal with any possible emergency at any time.
However, the shadows of the trees in the forest were only gently blown by the wind, and seemed calm on the surface.
"Maybe the wind."
The leader of the Wei family army spoke in a low voice, trying to break the tension.
"It's not safe to meet here. Please leave first. I will find a way to contact you another day."
The Wei family soldiers were unwilling but also understood their current helplessness, so they nodded in agreement.
On the other side——
Su Huaiyue tossed and turned, unable to sleep. There were many delicious foods lying in the space, and as she thought about them, Su Huaiyue didn't intend to sleep.
Taking advantage of the cover of night, she tiptoed out of the tent and ran to her own space with a little excitement.
She checked the things that were rewarded in the previous space.
As the items rewarded by the system piled up more and more, Su Huaiyue felt more and more like a wealthy woman.
As I was checking my stomach, I began to make unpleasant sounds.
Although there are many delicious foods in the space, instant noodles are still his favorite, especially the old-style pickled cabbage noodles.
A familiar smell hit her face, and she couldn't wait to open the bowl of instant noodles. In an instant, the noodles with a unique aroma made her swallow her saliva.
Just as Su Huaiyue was immersed in this moment of enjoyment, a slight sound suddenly came to his ears.
Her heart tightened. Could someone be following her?
She quickly put down the noodles in her hand, slipped out of the space, hid behind a tree with light steps, took a deep breath, and held her breath.
However, when I stuck my head out to look, I found that everything around me was quiet and I didn't see anything.
Su Huaiyue consoled herself: "Maybe it was just hallucination."
She packed her things and was about to go back when she suddenly felt a pair of eyes staring at her from behind.
"Su Huaiyue, why are you not sleeping in the middle of the night? What are you doing here?"
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound not far away, as if someone was walking around.
Su Huaiyue's heart tightened, and he wondered if there were any bad guys approaching the camp.
She put down the instant noodles in her hand and carefully followed the sound.
Along the way, her heart beat as fast as a drum, for fear of alerting any lurking danger.
However, she looked around for a long time and found nothing.
Just when she thought she might be hallucinating, a deep and powerful voice suddenly came from behind her: "What are you looking for?"
Su Huaiyue's heart stopped suddenly, and she turned around abruptly, meeting Wei Che's sharp eyes that saw through everything.
She calmed herself down and tried to answer in a steady tone, "I...I was going to the bathroom and heard some noise."
She carefully observed Wei Che's reaction, hoping he wouldn't ask any more questions.
Wei Che narrowed his eyes slightly, as if trying to discern the truth in Su Huaiyue's words.
He said vaguely, "It's easy to attract wild animals here, so it's better not to run around."
As he spoke, he glanced at the end of his sight, as if looking for something.
The moment he looked up, he saw a rapidly moving head.
"Hey! There seems to be someone there! Wei Che, hurry up..."
"You're seeing things! There's nothing."
Before Su Huaiyue could finish her words, Wei Che's tall figure blocked her view, as if it was intentional.
Wei Che stared at her with his dark eyes, trying to find a flaw on his face.
"Well……"
Su Huaiyue felt uneasy. He had never seen Wei Che like this before. He exuded a terrifying and man-eating aura and looked at her like a poisonous snake.
She vaguely felt that Wei Che seemed to have a secret unknown to others.
The atmosphere around was silent for a moment.
Wei Che turned his back and said in an unusual tone, "Did you really not hear or see anything just now?"
The atmosphere around them instantly froze, as if Wei Che would eat Su Huaiyue alive if he dared to say a word.
At this time, Su Huaiyue also reacted immediately, covering her mouth and shaking her head: "No, I just heard the movement, but didn't see anyone, I don't know anything."
After a long time, Wei Che turned around and looked at Su Huaiyue deeply: "It's late, go back to sleep."
Wei Che said calmly, his tone leaving no room for doubt.
