Transmigrated to the 1960s Beginning With Kidnapping and a Sign-In Routine

[Sign-In System + Space + Educated Youth + Ancient Martial Arts]

Gu Zuozuo, heir to an ancient martial arts family, was dragged down by a stupid man and ended up transmigrating into a history...

Chapter 41: Tracking (2/2)

It is most famous for its bizarre methods of repairing chains and its most powerful means of concealment after the chain repair is completed.

In my past life, when the ancient martial arts world of China sparred with the ninjas of the island nation, they suffered a lot of humiliation at their hands. The people of that country were inherently unreasonable, barbaric, and ambitious, and when they fought against the younger generation of the ancient martial arts world of China, they took their shamelessness to the extreme.

If you can't beat them, hide and then suddenly appear when you let your guard down, catching them off guard. She herself has suffered quite a few losses at their hands.

Gu Zuozuo followed the man even more carefully, even putting away the spirit bee, for fear that the sound of the spirit bee's wings vibrating would arouse suspicion.

The spirit bee was a spirit pet she obtained through daily check-ins. It was usually not very useful, except for scouting and keeping watch. However, she never expected it to fail today.

The further you go in, the taller the vegetation becomes, and the darker the surroundings become.

It was already a remote, untouched forest, and the further you went in, the less human presence there was; even the paths trodden by hunters had disappeared.

[Host, ahead lies what used to be the most notorious bandit stronghold. Those ruthless bandits used to be entrenched there.]

Seeing its host wandering further and further into remote areas, the system couldn't help but speak up to remind it.

Gu Zuozuo dodged the vines that had formed a thicket of thorns and brambles, silently following the man's movements. Whenever the man turned around to look, she would be quickly wrapped and entangled in the vines, blending into the other vines without leaving a trace. It was at this moment that she realized that wood-type superpowers did have some advantages.

Hearing the system's notification, she merely raised an eyebrow, completely unconcerned about what the bandit's den it described was like, and continued to follow.

Looking at the mountain with its pointed peaks ahead, Gu Zuozuo didn't hesitate at all and floated up directly. She wanted to see what kind of monsters and demons were inside.

The mountain is covered with dense weeds and entwined vines, and its terrain is treacherous, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack.

The only path up the mountain was a narrow, man-made passage, which was now completely abandoned and covered with weeds and vines, making it impossible to tell that there had ever been a path there.

Fortunately, I had mastered the art of lightness skill, otherwise climbing up there would have been a real challenge.

Before even reaching the summit, Gu Zuozuo spotted other people, and it seemed there were more than just one or two.

[Host, be careful, you seem to have entered a very dangerous place.]

Even without a system notification, Gu Zuozuo noticed something was wrong.

The man seemed to be a minor leader here, and he was very familiar with the area. Along the way, many people greeted him openly and subtly.

Gu Zuozuo became even more cautious, fearing that a moment of carelessness would result in her having to deliver groceries to someone's door.

There is a very large cave on the mountaintop, which was the stronghold of bandits before liberation, but it seems to have been occupied by the islanders now.

Gu Zuozuo took out an invisibility cloak. The only regret was that the energy source was only enough for her to use for three hours after wearing it. After three hours, the energy would run out, and the invisibility cloak would automatically destroy itself.

"Tsk, they're really generous to get such a one-time item just for checking in weekly."

The system chuckled awkwardly. It couldn't very well say it was its fault. It would never admit that it had taken the energy source for itself. After all, it was so weak that its skin was practically peeling off. It hadn't expected the consequences of reversing time to be so severe.

Donning her camouflage suit, Gu Zuozuo walked in silently.

Inside, there was a large hole leading to a smaller hole, and within the smaller holes, there were many branching paths.

"This looks even more complicated than a beehive. These people really know how to hide things."
