At 5:05 am, the sky was just getting light and people outside the city were lining up with their baskets on their shoulders, ready to sell fresh vegetables into the city. Shops in the city were also opening one after another to welcome the first batch of customers in the morning.
It was still early, and except for some breakfast shops where some people lingered, other shops were at their busiest.
The shopkeeper was wiping the small table in front of him in a disinterested manner, thinking that business had been very slow recently and he didn't know if it would be better today.
Suddenly, there was a rapid sound of horse hooves outside the door, and at the same time, a voice shouted: "Report! Great victory in Xizhou!"
The shopkeeper quickly threw away the rag in his hand and ran out of the door in three or two steps, but the other party was too fast. He only had time to see a black figure flash past him, and then the other party's figure completely disappeared at the end of the street.
