Document analysis

The volume of documents they required was substantial, so a significant amount of time was needed for preparation. Chu Wu had ordered their preparation the previous day, but it was not until the afternoon that the documents were finally delivered.

At this time, the person delivering the documents had already arrived at the gate of Chu Wu's residence, and he said to the guards:

"Please inform Sir Chu Wu that the items he requested have been prepared."

The guards nodded and hurried inside to relay the message. Chu Wu had given them a day off, so they only rested for one day before returning to their guard duties the following day. Chu Wu was not bothered by their presence because, with them around, there was always someone to relay messages to should someone come looking for him.

The guards went directly to the front of Chu Wu's cultivation house. Having spent over twenty years there, the household staff knew to look for him there if needed.
