(Chapter One: Four Thousand Words.)
Yang Qingfeng participated in the hunt for Yuan Tingshan. He had learned a wide variety of skills and was proficient in unorthodox methods. He was good at controlling animals. Shu Xiu, who was born as a witch in Nanjiang, was not bad either. She had many secret techniques. She kept a distance of a hundred steps from Yang Qingfeng and advanced side by side. Ning Emei threw away the 'bo' iron halberd. With the halberd pouch on her back and two flying halberds in her hands, she led more than a dozen light cavalry to abandon their horses and enter the forest. Assuming a fan-shaped formation, she held short crossbows and charged forward. Jiudou Mi Priest Wei Shuyang's body was like a mountain elf, leaping from branch to branch, coordinating with Ning Emei. The three tracking forces cast an inescapable net in pursuit of the young swordsman.
After Yang Qingfeng entered the forest, he bent down from time to time to check for clues on the ground. At first, he could still see footprints in the forest, deep and shallow. It was easy to chase, but soon the footprints began to fade. His footsteps suddenly widened. The escape route was no longer as simple as simply stepping on the ground. Instead, it was placed on tree trunks or rocks. Yang Qingfeng stopped and squatted down. He stretched out two sickly snow-white fingers to pinch some soil and sniffed it. His other hand took out three red-clawed black rats from a small pouch tied around his waist. He sprinkled the soil on the tips of their noses, and the little fellows scurried into the depths of the forest. Shu Xian came to Yang Qingfeng's side at some point and said lightly, "I didn't expect this kid to have some skills. I think we should just split up and completely widen the distance between us. Otherwise, if we accidentally hang ourselves on a tree, we won't have the face to see His Highness."
The gloomy Yang Qingfeng nodded. He didn't want to work with this woman. It would be best if he could do it alone. He could also use some of his hidden tricks. Shu Xiu didn't dare to neglect His Royal Highness's important task. She waved her sleeves and changed direction. Like a goshawk, she soared into the sky. She stepped on the branches like a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water. After several bounces, she stood at the top of the tree. However, she didn't open her eyes to look into the distance. Instead, she closed her eyes and wrinkled her small nose. She suddenly opened her eyes and the corners of her mouth curled. Her delicate body swooped down quickly. She changed direction in the forest and chased after a breath. The swordsman was very cunning. He had already carefully and deliberately concealed his footprints. However, Shu Xiu was still able to follow him by relying on the breath that was against the wind. She muttered seductively, "Little guy is really naughty. Sister is so tired that I'm sweating all over. If I catch you, I'll skin you alive and pull out your tendons."
In less than an hour, Shu Xiu successfully saw the swordsman's back twice. One time, the swordsman didn't run away. Instead, he ambushed Shu Xiu. His whole robust body was like a gecko sticking to the trunk of a tree. If Shu Xiu hadn't sensed that the breath had become heavier and determined that the swordsman was nearby, she would have been cut in half by the swordsman's saber. After Shu Xiu nimbly dodged this fierce and murderous strike, she retreated. Her hands and feet were glued to the trunk of a nearby tree. She looked down at the young swordsman who was grinning maliciously. She gently patted her heavy chest with one hand and said with a charming smile, "Oh, little brother, you don't even know how to have tender feelings for the fairer sex. Sister was worried about you all the way here for nothing."
Yuan Tingshan, who was being chased by this woman like a shadow, wasn't flustered at all. He sheathed his saber and said with a mischievous smile, "My little brother isn't small. If Sister doesn't believe me, when it's just the two of us later, Yuan Tingshan will definitely make Sister ecstatic."
Shu Xiu, who was glued to the tree like a spider, said with a charming look, "Your little mouth is really sweet."
Yuan Tingshan's ears kept trembling slightly. He tapped his legs with his saber. The two heavy lead weights wrapped around his calves shattered and fell to the ground. He said with a smile, "Sister's lover will be here soon. Little brother doesn't have the hobby of fighting two dragons and one phoenix. I'll leave first. If Sister's mother was still here, she could have called Sister to roll in bed with Little brother. Sister is so beautiful, presumably Mother's charm is still there. With two peaks confronting each other, Little brother will be captured without a fight. Unfortunately, only Sister is here today. Forgive me for not accompanying you! "
While he was flirting, Yuan Tingshan, who had lost more than ten jin of weight on his legs, retreated with unusual agility. In a flash, he disappeared without a trace. Shu Xiu, who wasn't in a hurry to chase, slowly landed on the ground. She stuck out her small lilac tongue and licked the corner of her mouth. She clicked her tongue and laughed, "Teasing this old lady!"
After this close combat, the quick-witted Yuan Tingshan began to flee with the wind. He no longer went against the wind and left clues for Shu Xiu. This made Shu Xiu's anger soar. After she reunited with Yang Qingfeng by the stream, she saw Yang Qingfeng squatting on the ground to pick up a heavy iron inner jacket. Nearby, a black rat was nailed to the ground by a branch. Shu Xiu's mood improved. She looked across the stream and sniffed. She frowned and said, "This boy's martial arts are still okay, but he's as cunning as a fox. It's not a good idea to continue chasing him. Practicing lightness kungfu is clearly the stupid path of carrying a monolith. I estimate that he's carrying at least twenty jin of weight. You and I are not afraid of competing with just the strength of our legs. But he's going to attack faster and faster. The one surnamed Yang, don't fail miserably at such an easy task. Lü Qiantang is dead. Don't fall here. Sister is very lonely. "
Yang Qingfeng snorted coldly. Stepping on a rock, she prepared to leap across the stream. Although Shu Xiu seemed to be chatting idly, she had been sniffing Yuan Tingshan's scent all along. It drifted over from a distance. In addition, there were footprints on the ground by the stream. Logically speaking, they should have crossed the stream and entered the forest. But as Shu Xiu sniffed, her expression changed dramatically. "Be careful!"
Her voice had barely faded when the water in the middle of the stream splashed up violently. He had accurately calculated the flow of Yang Qingfeng's Qi. At the critical moment when Yang Qingfeng's body was slanting downwards, this ruthless saber stabbed out at the perfect moment. Fortunately, Yang Qingfeng's legs kicked against the cloud and rose up, forcibly raising her body by ten feet. But if she stopped there, Yuan Tingshan's determined saber strike could still seriously injure Yang Qingfeng's legs. Shu Xiu's mind was instantly filled with hundreds of thoughts. Gritting her teeth, she kicked out a pebble with the tip of her foot, which violently shot toward Yuan Tingshan's Taiyang acupoint. In this rapidly changing situation, the outsider Shu Xiu held the initiative. If she did not interfere, Yang Qingfeng would most likely be at a disadvantage. Shu Xiu's kick could be divided into two subtle situations. If the pebble hit the blade, it would be most beneficial for Yang Qingfeng to get out of this predicament. But this pebble was aimed directly at Yuan Tingshan's Achilles' heel. Shu Xiu's plan of sitting on top of the mountain and watching the tigers fight could be said to be ingenious.
Without the slightest hesitation, Yuan Tingshan withdrew his saber and blocked the pebble. His body sank into the stream, and then he exploded the stream water and swept to the opposite bank. Laughing loudly, he said, "Sister, you have a new lover, but you still don't forget your old one. You're so greedy. Be careful not to overfill your stomach!"
Expressionless, Yang Qingfeng's toes tapped on the surface of the water. Like a swallow, she swept to the opposite bank. She said flatly, "I owe you one."
Shu Xiu narrowed her eyes and did not say anything.
