ipple's voice:"All players, the survival game test has failed, the game system has been destroyed. From now on, you will survive in the real world set up by the game map. I hope you find a new directi..."It turns out he didn't go missing, but blended in as Mrs. Zhen's carriage driver, thus evading the pursuit all the way. He was only recognized by Hai Zang Hong, which is why they were attacked."
Qi Qi's people were all from a background of intelligence gathering, and they reacted quickly. They immediately sorted out the situation.
"There must have been a master who helped him escape the pursuit, I suspect it was that Ripple Guard. But what is their purpose"
Qiqi tapped her fingers on the table, muttering to herself.
"We're still running background checks on the two of them, but we haven't turned up anything. They seem to have come out of thin air."
His subordinate spoke in a low voice.
"She's with those underworld figures, maybe they know about Lady Zhen and Ripple. Keep investigating."
"Yes."
"How is the leader's side doing Do you need our support"
“We received word before that the line has been mostly cleared and some scouts have been sent into Mengguo to gather information. We don't need to support them for now. The leader said to finish your current task as soon as possible and find the treasure.”
"Well, I understand! I'll set off first thing tomorrow morning and catch up to them as soon as possible."
"Yes!"
Recently, the Jianghu has been abuzz with excitement. A treasure map has appeared and been found, prompting many to scramble after it. Snake Lao, Xiao Shu, Wang Meimei, Xiong Zigeng, and others have come into the spotlight as potential possessors of the map.
For a time, these people went by pseudonyms in the underworld and were tracked by various factions.
The ripples from this had already left Wujang County. She had originally wanted to watch the commotion and wait for Wang Meimei to meet up with her, but the news that the treasure map had been found and fallen into those people's hands spread somehow. She feared trouble, so she left early.
"Who could be so unethical as to leak the secrets of the treasure map"
Ripples said unhappily.
"It's not you, it must be someone else! Those people with the treasure map in their hands definitely want to keep it all for themselves. They might have contacted their own sects or families, and word spread like wildfire, reaching everyone."
Wang Zhenzhen wasn't surprised. So-called secrets, are only secrets when only one person knows them. Once a second person knows, it's no longer a secret. Those people in the Jianghu have forty of them, each with their own thoughts, and news getting out is just a matter of time.
"I hope they don't suspect me."
The ripples lashed their whip.
The next place on Lian Yi's journey is Huangsacha City. It got its name because the constant strong winds bring in yellow sand grains. The local people are also known for being fierce, and very few people want to live there. However, it's the closest route to Longxi, so Lian Yi chose this path.
Wang Yaozu was already familiar with his new identity. He would often just sit in the carriage, now that he was a rough-and-tumble maid and no longer needed to drive it. But his hard days had just begun.
Wang Zhenzhen began to quiz Wang Ya zu on his studies, pulling him from the first chapter of *The Great Learning* to refresh and learn anew. This left him feeling quite overwhelmed. Are all martial arts practitioners this dedicated now This scholarliness was no less than that of his own master!
How could he know, as the eldest daughter of the Wang family, she was being cultivated as an heir before anything happened. It's just that after Wang Yaohui was born, things became easier for her. But some habits once formed are hard to change. Besides, Wang Zhenzhen liked reading from the start, so she never let go of her pursuit of knowledge.
Since her face was injured, she was secretly sent to the Sùnǚ Palace by her mother for treatment. She wanted to become stronger so that she could protect herself and her younger sister, and no longer be controlled by others. So she stayed in the Sùnǚ Palace, and teaching new disciples literacy was also her task, which is why she was valued by the palace master.
They had a smooth journey all the way, encountering no bandits along the road. After ten days, they reached the city gates of Huangsha City. At this time, everyone rushed into the city as if being chased by wolves.
The ripples turned back to look, and found that two miles outside the city gate, a vast expanse of yellow sand was rolling over. It was moving very fast, and it was estimated that within half an hour, it would engulf them.
Liàn yī this time understood why these people were so hurried, directly slapped Bai Long's butt, and loudly said:
“White Dragon, run faster, or we’ll be eaten!”
The white dragon let out a roar and took off running, leaving those who ran on two legs far behind in an instant.
When the three of them, Deng Lian and his companions, ran into an inn, a sandstorm entered Huangsha City. In an instant, the entire city was filled with yellow sand. People on the road were blown backward, could only lie on the ground, hoping not to be blown away.
With a shake of their bodies, ridding themselves of the sand clinging to them, the three ripples addressed the proprietress:
"We need two rooms. Do you have any available"
"Only the upper room is left, has the young lady chosen the upper room"
"Two rooms."
Ripple didn't waste any words, and directly tossed a tael of five ounces of silver.
The proprietress immediately beamed, taking the silver and calling her son to lead the guests upstairs.
The boss's son was only ten years old, looked sturdy and strong, wearing roughspun clothes. He immediately jumped out and led the three of them upstairs.
As Lián Yī walked up the stairs, he happened to meet a group of three people coming down. They were tall and burly with distinct features and deep-set eyes. At first glance, they didn't look like Han people, and their long robes seemed ill-fitting.
The man in the middle suddenly stopped, reached out to touch Lian Yi's face, and said with a smirk:
"Such a beautiful woman in this remote village Looks like our three brothers won't be lonely on the road ahead."
Unfortunately, before his hand could even reach Ripples' face, his arm was severed.
“Ah!” A pig-like squeal startled everyone in the inn. The proprietress, seeing this, cursed under her breath and pulled out a broad-backed cleaver from under the counter, ready to silence these troublemakers who were causing havoc in her shop.
While ripples here moved faster, severing the opponent's arm while simultaneously kicking them down. Then, with a low lunge, she dodged the blades of the other two. Gazing at the scimitars in their hands, she had a guess about these three people's identities.
"You have guts, since you're here, don't even think about leaving!"
A ripple kicked a person in the stomach. The other party crashed into the railing of the stairs and fell down a floor, crushing a wooden table, unable to get up for a long time.
Another person's blade came at Lian from behind, she twisted her body to the side and dodged it, directly snapping the opponent's saber in two.
The sound of the blade breaking was very sharp, somewhat similar to the cracking of bones.
With a “bang”, the man who attacked from behind was struck in the ribs by Ren's punch, and he fell to the first floor.
The ripples immediately dove, wrists turning as they wove a sword flower, slashing through the necks of both people, leaving only the one who had first dared to flirt with her.
"Tell me about your purpose for coming to Hanzhong."
The ripples sword was pressed against the other's throat, causing the pained man's face to pale. He involuntarily trembled.
"Don't want to say"
The ripple sword gently brushed against the other's neck.
"I said! It's for the treasures of your Han Kingdom!"ress for her daughter was still kept, also a kind of reminiscence. I won't take what others love."Mrs. Meng didn't expect Lian Yi to say that, but she was indeed happy. Her daughter's dowry was what s...
