Traveling through the Lotus Tower: Li Lianhua, you must live well

The next day, just after daybreak, the team began to pack up and prepare to set off.

They crossed the valley and walked along the rugged mountain road. The morning light shone through the treetops, dappling the ground. The air was filled with the freshness of the morning and the fragrance of grass and trees.

Shi Shui led the way in front, she looked alert and looked around from time to time. Liu Ming was at the back of the team, making sure no one was left behind, while also keeping an eye on the movements behind.

Just as the team was marching to a relatively open area, a burst of hurried horse hooves broke the tranquility of the early morning.

Shi Shui immediately signaled the team to stop, move closer to the carriage, protect the carriage in the center, and prepare for possible attacks.

The sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer, but to everyone's surprise, it was not the enemies coming, but a team of warriors dressed in Sigumen uniforms.

The leading warrior dismounted and saluted when he saw Shi Shui: "Master Shi, the sect leader learned that you might be in trouble, so he sent us here to help."

Shi Shui recognized the warrior and waved his hand to signal the team to lift the alert: "He is one of us, there is no need to be nervous."

After hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Su Ci discovered that Shi Shui not only did not relax, but instead frowned and looked a little worried.

She thought about it for a while and then understood the problem: ever since Li Xiangyi had secured the title of leader of the martial arts world, no one had dared to cause trouble for Si Gumen openly.

This time, Li Xiangyi first sent someone to deliver a letter to warn, and then sent more people to escort. It was obvious that the resistance he encountered this time was unusual. No wonder Shi Shui was worried.

After the two teams joined together, they continued to move forward quickly.

With reinforcements, vigilance along the way became tighter.

As time passed, the sun gradually rose higher, the sunlight penetrated the treetops, and sprinkled on everyone, bringing a touch of warmth.

Under the leadership of Shi Shui, the team successfully crossed the dense forests and valleys before them and moved quickly towards Sigumen.

However, just as they were about to walk out of the mountain, an accident happened.

A cold arrow suddenly shot out from the woods next to it, pointing directly at the carriage.

Su Ci, who was standing by the carriage, was quick to shoot away the arrow that flew towards him, and warned Lin Wenxiu in the carriage, "Mr. Lin, stay in the carriage and don't come out."

He turned around and pushed Liu Tian'er behind him into the carriage, asking her to go inside to take care of Lin Wenxiu. He took out his weapon and stood in front of the carriage with Liu Hai.

Shi Shui quickly ordered the four disciples to disperse and form a defensive formation.

More than twenty masked men rushed out of the dense forest, holding sharp blades and with agile bodies, they were obviously well-trained masters.

Faced with enemies that were more than twice as many as his own, Shi Shui was not panicked at all, and even felt a sense of relief as if the other boot had dropped.

Shi Shui said disdainfully: "Humph, a bunch of cowards who hide their heads and show their tails, dare to provoke Si Gu Men? You are looking for death!"

The masked man ignored Shi Shui and kept rushing towards the carriage.

Seeing this, Shi Shui stopped talking and rushed towards the masked man.

She swung out the whip with her right hand, and the whip stretched forward like a snake. The tip of the whip made a whistling sound and pointed directly at the masked man in the front.

Her whip techniques were unpredictable. The tip of the whip drew arcs in the air, moving left and right, up and down, making it difficult for the masked man to defend himself.

Each whip strike was extremely precise, either hitting the masked man's sword or bypassing the sword edge and going straight to the masked man's vital points.

After a few rounds, the masked man was at a disadvantage.

Finally, Shi Shui exposed a flaw and lured the masked man into a trap.

The whip broke through the masked man's defense like lightning and tightly wrapped around his neck. Shi Shui pulled hard and the masked man fell to the ground.

After dealing with her opponent, she did not delay and turned around to help others deal with their enemies.

Liu Ming was not to be outdone. He waved the spear in his hand and shuttled across the battlefield like a dragon. Wherever the spear went, the enemies retreated.

Su Ci stood in front of the carriage, waving the brush with a nimble and graceful posture, pressing acupoints and cutting meridians, immobilizing all the approaching enemies; Liu Hai stood on the side of the carriage, waving his long stick so tightly that it blocked the arrows shot from the dense forest.

The two fought side by side, with perfect understanding, and protected the carriage tightly. Although it was their first time working together, they cooperated perfectly.
