Seeing Shuang'er walking further and further away, the two of them were so anxious that they stopped chanting. One person said: "Lao Zhang, I'm watching here. Go and call Lao Wang back."
Lao Zhang said: "Lao Li, are you doing this alone?"
Lao Li said anxiously: "Go quickly! If we can't catch that little girl named Zhao, with Commander Shi's temper, we will definitely not get any good results when we go back."
Lao Zhang nodded and said: "Lao Li, I'll go then, you be careful."
After seeing off Lao Zhang, Lao Li looked back and saw that Shuang'er had reached the other side of the lotus pond and was about to reach the other side. Lao Li couldn't wait any longer and didn't care whether there was an ambush in the water. He closed his eyes. Leap forward and jump into the water.
Shuang'er heard the sound of water splashing behind him, turned around and saw Lao Li chasing him through the water and riding the waves. Shuang'er didn't dare to be lazy, he hurriedly exerted force on his feet and moved forward quickly.
If Shuang'er had enough internal energy on the shore, even if she carried Zhao Niantong on his back, Lao Li alone would definitely not be able to catch up with her. But it is very different in the water. First, Shuang'er is not familiar with water and does not know how to use force and always goes against the direction of the current. Second, Shuang'er does not know Qinggong. In a waist-deep pond, he can neither jump nor jump. No treading water, just moving forward step by step. In contrast, after Lao Li found out that there was no mechanism in the pool, he immediately started the light skill of "floating on water", taking three steps and one leap, and five steps and one leap, and chased Shuang'er straight away.
Fortunately, Shuang'er was relatively close to the shore, so he could reach the other shore in just a few steps. There were several straw huts for the servants to rest on the shore. Shuang'er took advantage of the darkness and got into one of the huts. He put Zhao Niantong down and said to himself: "Young Master Zhao, I'll wrong you for a moment. I'll go out and lead this bad guy away. I'll come back later." Looking for you."
After settling Zhao Niantong, Shuang'er immediately hid in another straw shed. As soon as he hid, Lao Li jumped ashore. Seeing him looking around with no clue, Shuang'er secretly prayed in his heart, hoping that he would retreat and let them go.
At this moment, a flash of lightning suddenly flashed across the sky, and the entire lotus pond suddenly became as bright as day. Using the light, Lao Li looked forward and saw a pool of water on the ground, twisting and turning towards the thatched shed in front of him.
Lao Li chuckled and said, "Little girl, let's see where you are running to?" After saying that, he took out the scimitar in his hand and walked slowly towards the hay shed.
Shuang'er was shocked when he saw Lao Li walking straight towards the hut where Zhao Niantong was. He looked around and suddenly saw a rake for collecting water weeds at his feet. He hurriedly bent down and took it in his hand. When I looked up, I saw Old Li walking by the shed. He raised his rake and plow, rushed out of the shed, and aimed a rake at the back of Old Li's head.
Lao Li heard the evil wind behind his head and did not look back. He lifted the scimitar in his hand back, only to hear a few sounds of "clang...swish...plop..." and then saw the scimitar making a slash in the air. The beautiful arc fell straight into the pond.
Lao Li was shocked, jumped up, jumped ten feet away, looked at the little girl in front of him up and down, and thought to himself: "This girl has such strong internal strength, she can fly away my single sword with just one move. Could it be that she is actually a hidden person?" A secret master? It seems that I can't act rashly for the time being, and I need to find a way to hold her back. When Lao Zhang, Lao Wang, and Lao Zhao arrive, the four of us will do it together. I don't believe I can't beat her then."
Thinking of this, he said loudly: "Little girl, you...who are you?"
Shuang'er was stunned when he heard this, and thought to himself: "You are obviously the ones who broke into the house without permission. I haven't asked you who you are yet, so you are asking me instead?"
"My name is Shuang'er, and I am the maid in the mansion. Who are you?"
"Shuang'er? Is that your name? What's your last name?"
Shuang'er shook his head and said: "I don't know what my last name is. I am an orphan and have never seen my parents' faces. Even the name Shuang'er was given to me by the family who adopted me."
"Okay, let me ask you, who is your master?"
Shuang'er thought to himself: "Nvxia Yin once taught me the method of breathing out luck, and also taught me the 'Shen Gong of Haina'. Logically speaking, she should be my master. I also wanted to worship her as my master, but she said nothing." If I don’t agree, it must be because I am dull and if I become her apprentice, I will inevitably lose her face.”
Thinking of this, he shook his head and said, "I don't have a master."
Old Li was stunned. He wanted to find out the little girl's martial arts background so that he could deduce her martial arts moves and methods. Unexpectedly, the little girl refused without giving him any chance.
"Hmph, you little girl are really bold and dare not recognize your master. Aren't you afraid that the news will reach your master's ears and you will be expelled from the master?"
Shuang'er said: "I don't have a master myself, so how can I tell my master?"
"Nonsense! If you don't have a master, where did you learn this advanced internal skill?"
When Shuang'er heard this, he understood, and thought to himself: "No wonder this person kept chatting with me on the same spot after taking action alone. It turned out that he was afraid of my internal strength and did not dare to come forward to compete. In this case, I am still talking to me. What are you so entangled with? Let’s lure you away first, and then we can rescue Zhao Shaoxia from danger.”
Thinking of this, he ignored Lao Li and turned around to leave.
"Stop...stop! Where...where are you going?"
Shuang'er didn't even look back and replied, "I'll go to Xuanzang Hall to find the master. Do you dare to come?"
Old Li still knew about Chen Xiaotian's reputation, and thought to himself: "If this girl really goes to find Chen Xiaotian, then even if Old Wang and the others arrive, the four of us together may not be Chen Xiaotian's opponent."
Seeing Shuang'er walking further and further away, Lao Li became worried and said to himself: "Even if we lose, we still have to fight. Lao Zhang, Lao Wang, Lao Zhao, you three had better come back quickly, otherwise I can't hold on It won't be long." Thinking of this, he exerted force on his feet, lunged forward, and swung out his right fist, hitting Shuang'er directly in the back of the heart.
As Shuang'er walked, he watched Lao Li's actions out of the corner of his eye. When he saw him punching him, he suddenly remembered the method Pan Suxuan had taught him. He turned around, turned his palms, and pushed against Lao Li's fist. Go up.
Lao Li knew that Shuang'er had strong inner strength, so when he saw her hitting with both palms, he did not dare to take the blow forcefully. He hurriedly withdrew his right hand and at the same time swung out his left fist and hit Shuang'er's cheek.
When Shuang'er saw Lao Li's left fist attack, he still used his old method. He raised his palms to meet it, intending to block the punch. According to martial arts routines, if the opponent punches with one hand, you can block it with one palm, leaving one hand free to prevent the opponent's next attack. But what Pan Suxuan told Shuang'er at that time was to block with both palms, and never mentioned receiving the move with one palm. However, even if Pan Suxuan said it at the time, Shuang'er would definitely use both palms to receive the punch to ensure safety.
But who knew that Lao Li's left fist was actually a feint. Both hands were beside his face, and the door in the middle was wide open. When Lao Li saw him, he was overjoyed and said to himself: "You can't run away now!" He punched out with his right hand and hit the "Tanzhong point" on Shuang'er's chest.
