Second update

----

Since the footprints were found, things were much easier to do. Everyone followed the footprints and followed them all the way. During this period, these footprints passed through a section of stone mountain. The road was full of stones and no more footprints were left. However, the twisted girl actually did not get rid of the strange method of checking the moss on the stones.

After a day of leaving, everyone discovered an abandoned campground with several ashes on the ground. It seemed that they had buried pots and cooked rice here.

The twisted girl couldn't help but frowned, and she said curiously: "This group of people is not all martial arts people, there are soldiers in the army among them."

Li Yanqi said: "Why do you say this?"

The twisted girl explained seriously: "People in the martial arts world are very casual about food and accommodation. They are very common. Even if they set up a tent for the sake of the old lady's body, they will definitely not be able to do such things as burying a pot and making rice. Think about it, which martial arts master would travel with the blame?"

The free and easy girl smiled and said, "Yes, martial arts people will definitely become a laughing stock if they take the blame."

Hei Changzhi Yujie also nodded and said, "If I were going out, I would eat some dry food on the way, and I would never make rice."

The skinny girl said, "I can eat snakes!"

Four people left: "..." Hurry up and ignore the skinny girl.

The twisted girl said, "This group of people actually bury the pot and make rice. That means that there are soldiers among them. When they arrive, the soldiers are responsible for camping and making rice, while the martial arts people continue to be responsible for guarding. See if there is mud on the treetops near this campsite. That is, there are martial arts people flying on the trees and keeping watch on the trees. Leave the mud on the soles of their shoes on the trees."

Li Yan quickly flew over a big tree next to him with a good view. Sure enough, there were a few balls of mud on the top of the tree. It was obvious that someone had stood here, and the mud on the soles of his feet was dipped here.

Li Yan was once again impressed by the twisted girl and jumped back to the ground and asked, "What did you infer?"

The twisted girl said: "Brother Li Yan said that the old lady doesn't look like she has martial arts skills. Now she can introduce her soldiers to accompany her. There is only one possibility. She is a person in the government, but... this is very strange. Ordinary martial arts people may be used by the government, but what kind of person is the northern beggar Hong Qigong? How could she contribute to the government?"

Li Yan was surprised: "Yes, the Northern Beggar would never contribute to the government. This is really strange."

The twisted girl said, "Now I am interested in this old lady. Let's chase after me quickly. If you chase me and ask me, you will know who she is."

Everyone had no objection, and they only slept for an hour or two before getting up. They continued to chase their footprints. Although the black Changzhi Yuxiao was blocked, her skills were still there. Although the rest time was short, she was still energetic. But the free and easy girl was no longer able to do it. Her skills were chaotic by several alien true qi in her body. Now she was a little weaker than ordinary people. She didn't have enough sleep time, so she worked a little harder, so Li Yan had to carry her back.

Fortunately, the free and easy girl is generous and does not care about being carried by men. For her, it is more interesting to find out who this mysterious old lady is than the embarrassment of being carried by men.

The group of people desperately followed their footprints and walked forward. They slept less and rushed faster. They must have walked faster than the old lady and the group. After three days, they chased them very close. The footprints on the ground looked very fresh. At this speed, they could catch up in less than two days.

The five of them stepped up again and walked into a small wood. The twisted girl suddenly looked dark and she whispered: "No, the old lady and her group have been targeted."

Li Yan was shocked: "Why did you say this?"

The twisted girl said: "The footprints of another group of people appeared here, which were clearly for the old lady and her group, and there were many footprints, no less than a hundred."

Li Yan was shocked again. He only saw a lot of footprints on the ground. He really couldn't see the mystery. He didn't know how the Twisted Girl judged that these people were pursuers, and there were as many as a hundred. However, he knew that the situation was urgent. If something happened to the old lady, Sister Hong would definitely blame herself very much. She must catch up and help the old lady.

"Let's go quickly!" Li Yan said to the twisted girl: "Put your Black Changzhi Yujie back on her back so that she won't walk too slowly and drag her speed. We're going to speed up."

At this moment, Li Yan was carrying a free and easy girl on her back, while the twisted girl carried a black long straight lady. The skinny girl followed behind the two of them. Everyone used light skills and chased her desperately. Fortunately, Li Yan's Tiyunzong was already quite good at being. The twisted girl was famous for her light skills. The skinny girl's light skills were not bad at the moment. The three of them acted as fast as a rabbit, turning into three meteors, chasing the wind.

In the blink of an eye, the twisted girl kept adjusting the tracking direction through her footprints. Since there were a group of enemy footprints to be followed, it was easier to chase them and not to go to the wrong path. When she arrived at a small river beach, there was a sudden sound of shouting and killing, as well as the sound of weapons colliding in front of her.

Li Yan was excited and finally caught up! On the river beach ahead, the old lady and her group were besieged by hundreds of enemies. The sword light and blood splattered, and the fight was very fierce. The old lady left the sedan chair and stood on the edge of the river beach. The sedan chair was tilted to one side. The two sedan chairmen fell to the ground. It seemed that they were shot to death by the enemy with hidden weapons. Fortunately, she was not injured and did not seem to be frightened. Standing in the sword light and sabers, she actually seemed very calm, but it was a little inconsistent with her kind appearance. Usually these kind old ladies didn't see much blood, but she was a little different.

The hundreds of enemies who besieged the old lady were obviously from the same gang and were wearing uniforms. This uniform was a bit strange, very similar to the shorts and short sleeves worn by a fisherman, which was convenient for working on the boat. It seemed to be a gang that had something to do with water.

Li Yan had almost zero knowledge on the world, so he had to ask the girls around him: "What kind of gang's uniform is that?"

The black Changzhi Yujie Zuo Lengchan has a very broad knowledge. He only took a look and said, "That is the uniform of the Twelve Docks of the Yangtze River Waterway..."

Li Yan was stunned: "Twelve chain docks of the Yangtze River Waterway? What's the matter?" He immediately searched the database in his mind, but there seemed to be no such thing in the novels of Jin Yong, and there seemed to be no such thing in Gu Long and Huang Yi... This is... Could it be in Wen Ruian's novel? But Li Yan was not familiar with Wen Ruian's novels and really couldn't remember the details, so he was not sure whether it was.

I saw that the Twelve Channel Docks on the Yangtze River Waterway not only had the advantage of the number of people, but also three experts were very active, rushing left and right in the crowd, killing the old lady's guards to the point of being in a mess.

Hei Changzhi Yujie said, "These three are the small leaders in the twelve chain docks of the Yangtze River Waterway, collectively known as Sanying. The one with the double sword is the boss, called the 'Double Swordsman' Fu Yongxiang, with the highest martial arts skills, the one with the axe is called the 'Purple Gold Axe', Sato Jinying, with the second martial arts skills, and the one with the long spear is called the 'Gun to the Death', fighting with the weakest martial arts skills... Well, although their reputation is very powerful, they are very ordinary in martial arts, so don't take it too seriously."

The twisted girl rolled her eyes at her and hummed, "You have the strength of Heimu Cliff College. In your eyes, these three heroes are of course ordinary martial arts, but for ordinary people in the martial arts world, they are quite difficult and tough characters."

Sure enough, as soon as the twisted girl finished speaking, she stabbed a swordsman with one shot when the gun was dead. As the spear turned, she picked up the man's body and flew high and fell into the river in the distance. The river water splashed with a loud bang, and several drops of water splashed on the old lady standing by the river.

The old lady sighed softly, as if she was observing a silence for the dead man in the world. But she did not show any fear, and was still calm as before, looking at the bloody battle in front of her without blinking.

A man from the martial arts world jumped in front of her and shouted: "Old lady, go quickly, we can't win. These people are good players at the Twelve Channel Docks of the Yangtze River Waterway... We are not able to protect us, please leave first..."

The old lady shook her head and said, "You fight for me, how can I leave? If I retreat in the last battle, I will cover my son's face. Don't say anything more. If you all die here in battle, the old woman will die with you."

The man from the world shouted: "But they didn't want to kill you, they wanted to capture you and threaten your son, ask him to collude with the enemy and treason the country, and ruin the country of our Song Dynasty..."

The old lady laughed and said, "When they want to catch me, I will naturally commit suicide. Even if I fail to commit suicide, I will not negotiate terms with these bandits to save me. Is he such a person? I have taught him to be loyal to the country since I was a child, and I will die after death. How can I betray the motherland for my mother? Even if the enemy cut me into pieces, he will never waver."

The man from the world was stunned and sighed, "Old Madam, I'm a mistake. He is indeed not such a person. He is worried too much. Since that's the case, he can only fight to the death today!" After saying that, he turned his head, waved his long sword, and joined the battle circle. Unfortunately, this man had a passionate heart and his martial arts were so easy that he was very ordinary. Within ten moves, he was slashed to the ground by the "Purple Gold Axe" Satsu Jinying, with an axe, and blood splattered onto the stone beside the old lady.

The old lady sighed lightly, obviously very sad, but her eyes were still firm and she had no intention of escaping.
Chapter completed!
