Almost at the same time when Yan Huisheng received the hawk messenger, the hawk also found Zhou Che, who was on his way to Jibei.
The hawk circled twice above the clouds, then dived down, landing directly in front of Zhou Che's horse.
Seeing this, a soldier immediately shouted, "General, be careful."
Zhou Che didn't sense any danger, but he still drew the sword from his waist, ready to defend himself.
Seemingly aware of his preparedness, the hawk took a few steps back, its head tilted, seemingly trying to recognize if he was the person it was seeking.
Training hawks to deliver messages naturally required them to develop sharp senses of smell, hearing, and vision. Recognizable maps were marked for the hawk to memorize in order to accurately deliver the message. Most importantly, they needed to have an item from the person to whom the message was addressed, which the hawk could use to track by scent.
