At this point, how could Hu Ma not understand?
Earlier in Shima Town, when he had encountered the Shousui great hall officer and Second Young Master Meng, Hu Ma had overheard some important matters.

The Meng family was planning to go to Mingzhou to find him, and he even hinted that he wasn't the only one with the surname Hu?
Now that Hu Ma was in a rush to break through the Three Column Tao and also needed to retrieve the Hu Family's token, it was hard to say there wasn't an element of urgency related to this.
