It was probably close to noon, because they weren't walking very fast. The road wasn't wide, so their car couldn't pass. They could only follow slowly behind them, but didn't get any closer.

They observed the caravan ahead, which appeared to be a merchant caravan transporting goods.

So the group discussed it and put away the hovercar, releasing a more ordinary horse-drawn carriage. They then switched to the carriage, so they could overtake them without drawing attention.

Actually, we're not far from Danzhou now. Since we've encountered a caravan here, it must also be heading to Danzhou.

After following them for a while, when they reached a grove of trees, they stopped and found a spacious spot by the roadside.

After they parked their car and made room, they slowly walked past them.

Because Cheng Ying and Ye Jinxuan possessed mental power, they casually used their mental power to scan the contents of the carriage as they passed by.

They discovered that most of the goods were grain being transported; it turned out to be a grain merchant. But as they looked closer, something seemed off.

From the moment they passed their vehicles until they reached the middle section, there were several carts carrying grain on top, but underneath, they found weapons such as swords, bows, and crossbows.

Cheng Ying then whispered what they had seen to the others!

"They're carrying food and weapons; that's unusual!"

"If they were worried about being ambushed along the way, it wouldn't be a big deal for them to take some weapons. But these weapons are custom-made models that can only be used by the military, which further proves that these people are not ordinary businessmen."

Upon hearing Cheng Ying's words, the group immediately perked up; it seemed they had something to do again.

Meanwhile, Ye Jinxuan continued to observe the contents of the vehicle and the people around him, intending to see if any of them were familiar faces.

Unexpectedly, he actually found one inside. Although the person was dressed in all black and wearing a bamboo hat, Ye Jinxuan was using his spiritual sense to see him, so he didn't care whether the person was covering his face or not.

Soon, they passed the convoy, and after walking a little further and getting some distance away, they also stopped.

Ye Jinxuan said mysteriously, "Guess who I just saw in the crowd?"

The others all looked at him, waiting for him to reveal the answer. Ye Jinxuan lived up to their expectations and said the name, "Huang Youan, that's Mr. Huang."

Cheng Ying asked in surprise, "Didn't they say before that he and the leader of the Thunder Eagle Gang had escaped? Are they both in this caravan?"

Ye Jinxuan said thoughtfully, "The leader of the Thunder Eagle Gang, I've never seen her before, so I'm not sure which one it is."

"However, when I was observing just now, there was indeed a woman wearing a straw hat next to Huang Youan. Could she be the leader of the Thunder Eagle Gang?"

Liu Haoyang said, "It's very possible that after they escaped, they encountered this caravan and returned to Danzhou with them."

Chu Qiao also analyzed, "Then this caravan is very likely to know them."

Shi Mobai interrupted them, saying, "Let's stop guessing here. Why don't we go and see for ourselves? Then we'll know everything."

Everyone looked at Shi Mobai. "How do we get there? Do we just go straight there?" Liu Haoyang asked, a rather silly question.

Shi Mobai proudly raised his head and said, "Of course I have my own way. Let's see what this is?"

As he spoke, Shi Mobai took out a silver box from his spatial storage, pressed a button, and a stand popped out.

As the support slowly unfolded, revealing a small tray, Mo Bai pressed another button. Several flying objects, roughly the size of mosquitoes, detached from the support.

"Open the door and let them out!" Shi Mobai said.

After Chu Qiao opened the door, she saw the flying objects fly out.

Shi Mobai pressed two more buttons, and a small screen appeared, attracting everyone's attention.

Just as they had guessed, the screen they had seen earlier was the view shared by those little creatures that had just flown out.

The scenery on the screen changed in an instant, and we were suddenly in front of the group of merchants. At that moment, the screen split into several parts.

Upon closer inspection, Cheng Ying exclaimed in surprise, "It was taken from different angles!"

"This little thing is pretty good; it even knows to shoot scenes from different angles. Can it hear them talking?"

"Of course I can hear it!" Shi Mobai said while operating the few small devices.

Just then, a sound came from the screen.

"Second Young Master, should we deal with that carriage that just passed by?"

"Mr. Huang, you're being far too paranoid."

"Exactly, if we keep saying things like that, we'll be exhausted."

"I'm sorry, Second Young Master, but I can't trust anyone except our own people right now!"

"Hey! Mr. Huang, relax. We're just businessmen now. We've met too many people along the way. We can't kill them all, in case something unexpected happens."

"Besides, at our current speed, we'll be in Danzhou very soon."

“At our speed, they can’t catch up with us for now. How about this: if those people still aren’t leaving after we finish lunch, we’ll take care of them.”
