Chapter 162 Escape to the Valley
The development of the matter was completely beyond Xiao Yuer's expectations.

He originally thought that as long as he hid his identity well this time, he would be able to find Lu Ping easily.

Unexpectedly, after he left Zhengqi Villa with Tie Xinlan and Su Ying, he was soon recognized by an unknown person in the martial arts world.

No one knows who exposed the appearance of the six people. In short, now not only do all the people in the world know that the "Six Taiping Sons" have weapons and martial arts classics in their hands, but they also know what each of them looks like.

Once you know his appearance, the next thing that naturally comes next is tracking and assassination.

In order to obtain the legendary weapons and martial arts manual, various people from the martial arts world either hired killers or took action themselves, causing a lot of commotion and vowing to capture these three people.

The assassination masters in the underworld are all shrewd and experienced, with many methods at their disposal. They either disguise themselves as roadside vendors or dress up as elderly people passing by, and attack Xiao Yuer and the other two through poisoning, stabbing, sneak attacks and other methods.

Fortunately, Xiao Yu'er is smart, alert, and has good luck. Su Ying is proficient in medicine and always has various detoxifying pills on her. In addition, the three of them have made some progress in martial arts, so they can repeatedly escape danger.

In fact, Xiao Yuer disguised the three of them the day after their identities were exposed.

He learned the disguise skills from the androgynous Tu Jiaojiao when he was a child in the Valley of Evil, including the complete set of techniques of face changing, voice changing, and "bone shrinking".

Tie Xinlan and Su Ying had never learned the skill of shrinking bones, so they could only manipulate their faces.

However, Xiao Yuer was very deft and the disguised face he made was very delicate, making it difficult to recognize with the naked eye. He then took the two girls to find a place to take a bath and changed their clothes and shoes.

In this way, about 70% of the killers were finally eliminated, but unfortunately there are still 30% of the killers following behind.

In the woods, three tired figures were running hurriedly.

The chaotic footsteps and rapid, heavy breathing disturbed the tranquility.

The ones who disturbed the tranquility of the forest were none other than the 'seven-year-old child' Xiao Yu'er, the 'middle-aged man' Tie Xinlan, and the 'pockmarked aunt' Su Ying, who had been disguised beyond all recognition.

In the forest, he lay on the ground and listened quietly for a while.

After confirming that there were no pursuers behind them, Xiao Yuer stood up, nodded, and said to the two of them, "It looks like we should be safe for the time being."

Tie Xinlan finally breathed a sigh of relief, ignoring the mess and slumping on the ground: "It's been three days, a total of forty-one assassinations, and these people finally retreated..."

"not that simple!"

Su Ying shook her head, and a deep fear appeared on the face of the 'pockmarked aunt': "Don't forget, we thought so before, but we were discovered again the next day."

Xiao Yuer clenched his fist and punched the old tree next to him: "Damn it! How did they find us?"

The air was silent for a while.

Su Ying suddenly blinked and said, "In the past, Wei Wuya had trained his mice to find treasures and people. Those mice would dig holes everywhere in the ground and finally follow the smell to find the target."

The two understood what Su Ying meant by this, but the idea didn't make sense.

"We have changed our clothes several times over the past few days, and have bathed from head to toe several times. It is impossible for an animal to follow the smell and find us!"

"They must have used some other method!"

It was a rare moment to calm down and think seriously. Xiao Yuer recalled the various precautions he had learned before about navigating the world and analyzed them step by step.

"If someone is targeting you and you can't get rid of them, there are only two possibilities."

"First, the team left a mark during the operation..."

The so-called "marks" are not as simple as marks in the ordinary sense. They also include footprints, smells, and various traces of life and biological information left by people when they pass by.

But the possibility of this is basically zero.

Because they seemed to have confirmed that there was nothing strange about them.

Moreover, the three people present are all in the same boat. If they are caught by the killer behind them, they will not have a good end, so it is impossible for them to betray.

"Second, our actions were under enemy surveillance from beginning to end."

Similarly, the "enemies" here are not necessarily all "humans", but also include animals such as "rats" or poisonous insects such as the "five poisons".

Tie Xinlan said: "But along the way, we didn't find any special animals behind us."

Su Ying thought for a moment: "If there is nothing behind me, could it be somewhere else?"

other places?

Xiao Yu'er's eyes moved, and he suddenly saw two rows of wild geese flying in the sky. In an instant, he suddenly realized what was going on and jumped up with a scream.

"I know, it's a bird!"

"What has been following us these days is the birds in the sky!"

"No wonder those assassins disappeared after they reached this forest. The trees in this forest are too tall and the branches and leaves block our view. Even birds can't see our tracks!"

bird?
It turned out to be like this...

With Xiao Yuer's conclusion, the two girls finally realized the reason.

"Before, the boss told me, 'Don't go into the woods.' If you get into trouble in the martial arts world, you must never go into the woods. Now it seems that's not always the case!"

"If we hadn't happened to enter this forest, how could we have shaken off the pursuers behind us?"

Having solved a problem that had troubled him for days, Xiao Yuer was finally overjoyed. He felt much more relaxed and even started talking nonstop: "Sure enough, I am still smarter..."

When he finally stopped showing off, Su Ying slowly spoke: "Don't be too happy too soon!"

"Even if we know the whole story, how are we going to get rid of those assassins?" "It won't be long before they find their way to this forest. But once we leave the forest, the three of us will be targeted by the birds in the sky again..."

Yes, what should I do?

Xiao Yu'er's face was not filled with worry, and he continued to laugh: "Any difficulty, as long as you know the cause, there are ways to deal with it, don't worry, there is always a way out!"

The two women didn't know where Xiao Yuer's confidence came from, but they believed in his intuition.

The three of them kept moving forward without paying attention to direction. Half an hour later, a river appeared in front of them.

Seeing this, Xiao Yuer smiled brightly: "Look, isn't there a way out?"

The killers were able to catch up with the three people because birds could lead the way in the air, but if the three of them hid underwater, the birds in the air would lose their sight.

After that, as long as you swim a certain distance and go ashore from another place, you can completely get rid of the killer behind you.

Fortunately, the three people present were all good at swimming.

But when they came out of the woods and reached the river bank, they found that things were not as simple as they had thought.

The river is turbulent and the source is far away from the upper reaches, so it is obviously impossible to go upstream.

The downstream is visible, but it disappears without a trace after stretching for hundreds of meters.

The three of them felt strange. They looked at each other and walked over to take a closer look. They found that the river was not cut off, but had become a waterfall.

The waterfall rushes down and flows into a valley hundreds of feet deep.

Seeing this situation, the three of them were still frightened.

"Luckily, we didn't jump into the water just now, otherwise we would have been smashed to pieces now!"

Xiao Yu'er whistled: "This situation reminds me of the time when I was in Emei Mountain..."

Tie Xinlan's eyes lit up: "Yes, yes... We climbed down like this at that time, and finally found the underground palace at the bottom of the valley..."

The girl's voice was delicate and sweet, like the song of an oriole, but unfortunately she had the face of a rough man when she spoke, which made her look a little weird.

Xiao Yuer smiled secretly in his heart, but when he turned around, he found that Su Ying's face was not very good.

Why does Su Ying look unhappy?

The "experience in Emei" mentioned just now was an adventure that Xiaoyuer and Tie Xinlan had participated in. There was no "outsider" like her in it, so of course she was unhappy.

Xiao Yuer scratched his head in confusion. He wanted to mediate, but he didn't know where the problem lay, so he had to change the subject.

"Where do you think is underneath this?"

Su Ying pouted: "We have been chased for so many miles these days, and now we don't even know the direction. How can we know what is below..."

The pockmarked-faced auntie's pouting look is even more ridiculous than the delicate man.

Xiao Yuer curled his lips and didn't say much.

At this time, the three of them stood on the top of the waterfall and looked down. They could vaguely see the prosperous valley, like a paradise. Among the trees, there were many pavilions and towers, which were magnificent and noble.

The water flowing down from the waterfall formed a clear lake in the valley, embracing the palace in the valley.

“What a magnificent place!”

"Could this be... the address of some martial arts sect?"

Xiao Yu'er pondered for a moment and asked, "I heard that Yihua Palace is in a place called Xiuyu Valley. Could this be Xiuyu Valley?"

What are you thinking about?

Tie Xinlan sighed speechlessly: "Xiuyu Valley is covered with ice and snow all year round, and it is located southeast of the Suzaku Dynasty. We came out of Zhengqi Villa, and even if we rode horses, it would be impossible to reach there in three days!"

Xiao Yuer said angrily: "Okay..."

At this moment, Su Ying suddenly said, "I remembered a place rumored in the martial arts world, and the environment here is very similar!"

"where?!"

"Shenshui Palace!"

Shenshui Palace, the territory of Jellyfish Yin Ji.

Xiao Yu'er and Tie Xinlan realized at the same time: "Indeed, if you say this is the Shenshui Palace, I'm not surprised at all..."

Then, the three of them started shaking out their book bags one after another.

"I heard that this Jellyfish Yin Ji is one of the women with the highest martial arts skills in the world, and her martial arts were practiced in the water. It is a unique style and very powerful."

"I also heard that many years ago, Jellyfish Yin Ji, for some unknown reason, fought alone against the two palace masters of Yihua Palace, and in the end, the fight was evenly matched."

"I have heard people say that she looks like a man, is tall, masculine and majestic, hates men and likes women..."

At this point, the three of them were stunned at the same time, vaguely smelling some kind of gossip.

Is that rumored battle really serious?
