Chapter 112:
There were two people when the Sword Holder Si Yamen went to the Yamen, and there was one more when he came back.
It wasn't the screaming man, but a little girl.
Ye Jingshuang glanced at Jiang Ran with some confusion.
Jiang Ran smiled and greeted everyone to continue their journey while getting on the carriage.
He lent his horse to Zhang Zhihua.
He took over Ye Jingshuang's job of driving the car and told Ye Jingshuang what happened.
Ye Jingshuang was immediately surprised:
"The daughter of the new governor?"
"It's indeed a bit unexpected. I didn't expect that the chance encounter on the road would have such a big connection."
Jiang Ran smiled:
"But it doesn't matter. I am now facing the scene in front of me. , I am more interested."
Ye Jingshuang looked at Zhang Zhihua and Li Tianxin.
He also laughed dumbly.
He just didn't express any opinions.
The rest of the half-day trip was uneventful.
Jiang Ran didn't see any of the people he saw in the woods before, nor the people in the sedan.
We arrived at Cangzhou Mansion smoothly.
As soon as he stepped into the city, Li Tianxin breathed a sigh of relief and said to Zhang Zhihua impatiently:
"Miss Zhang, now that Cangzhou Mansion has arrived, let's say goodbye."
Zhang Zhihua pouted and wanted to say more.
Li Tianxin said quickly:
"We have important things to do, so it's not convenient to take you with us anymore."
Zhang Zhihua's face darkened when he heard this, and he couldn't help but look at Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran spread his hands towards her, looking helpless.
Only then did Zhang Zhihua sigh:
"Well, then... mountains and rivers meet again, brother Li, we will meet again later."
After saying that, he bowed to Jiang Ran and the others again, then turned around and walked away three times. go.
Seeing that the girl was really gone, Li Tianxin's tense body gradually returned to normal.
Unable to help gritting his teeth, he turned back and glared at Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran handed the reins to Ye Jingshuang with a smile, and he led the horse to walk with Li Tianxin: "Why are you staring at me? It's my turn to do this good thing, and I don't even know how to open my mouth to continue it
. ?"
"A good thing?"
Li Tianxin gritted his teeth:
"What's a good thing? Do you know that my life... is worse than death."
"It's not that bad."
Jiang Ran felt that what he said was a bit exaggerated:
"Little girl He is innocent and ignorant of the world. Although he is a bit clingy, he is quite interesting, isn't he? "
At least Jiang Ran was very happy to see it.
Li Tianxin glared at Jiang Ran, took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his body, and said with force, "
I don't covet her at all. Don't do such unnecessary things in the future.
"Otherwise , will only harm others and yourself. Jiang
Ran looked at him in surprise when he heard what he said seriously.
After pondering for a while, he nodded:
"Okay, I understand." "
Huh? " "
Li Tianxin was stunned and glanced at Jiang Ran in surprise.
He thought that Jiang Ran would have to mess around in order to see his joke, but he didn't expect that he actually agreed directly.
"It's not sweet to be forced to watch a show. Not so. "
Jiang Ran smiled and said: "Since you don't want to, then forget it. I don't care about this old father anymore.
"Whose father are you? " "
Li Tianxin was a little confused at first. After he came to his senses, he couldn't help but glared at Jiang Ran.
But he didn't dare to take action. In the end, he still dared to be angry and dare not speak.
But after Jiang Ran's words, he let go The heart came.
Immediately speechless, the group continued forward, found an inn, and rented a small courtyard.
They drove all the carriages and horses in, packed them up, and settled down for the time being.
And this trip to Cangzhou Mansion, There are only two purposes.
The first is to find a place for Liu Wenshan to stay and a job where he can settle down and make a living. The
second is for the two heads in Jiang Ran's hands.
These two things can be divided completely. Two ways.
Let Li Tianxin and Ye Jingshuang take Mingyue to find a place for Liu Wenshan.
Jiang Ran is rich and can buy it directly if he sees a suitable village.
Not to mention giving it to Liu Wenshan, even if it is left to him to buy Reason, by the way, he and Mingyue can live there.
From now on, Jiang Ran will not have to stay in an inn when he returns to Cangzhou Prefecture, and he will have a real place to live.
Jiang Ran took the two wrapped heads and went to find the new owner of Cangzhou Prefecture. The Sword Holding Si Yamen was opened.
Everyone didn’t need to rest much. The journey was not fast. Except for Liu Wenshan, no one was tired.
After discussing it, they went out directly.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived at the door of the inn, they saw Zhang Zhihua didn't know when he was waiting here. After seeing Li Tianxin, he called out sweetly:
"Brother Li! "
Jiang Ran, Ye Jingshuang, and Mingyue all focused their attention on Li Tianxin.
Li Tianxin's expression changed immediately. He
glanced at Jiang Ran as if asking for help, and saw that Jiang Ran looked at his nose, nose, mouth, and heart.
He couldn't help but get angry: "It's not you again, is it?
" How is that possible? " Jiang
Ran rolled his eyes: "You chose this inn." "
..."
Li Tianxin frowned slightly and walked towards Zhang Zhihua.
Jiang Ran and Ye Jingshuang looked at each other, and Ye Jingshuang smiled and said,
"Then I'll take Mingyue and leave first."
"Okay, we'll meet you at the inn later. " "
Jiang Ran nodded, and the two of them separated, one facing left, the other facing right, and left.
Li Tianxin was left standing alone in front of the inn door to deal with Zhang Zhihua.
...
...
Dao Wuming In the letter left to Jiang Ran at that time, there was a secret contact note for the Sword-holding Si Yamen.
It was a slightly curved sword-shaped pattern.
You need to follow this pattern to find the location of the Sword-holding Si Yamen.
And this pattern will remain under the wall of the grain and oil store.
Therefore, if you want to find the Sword Holder, you must first find a grain and oil store.
It's not difficult... There are not many other things in any city, and the most common ones are grain and oil stores.
Jiang Ran followed the map and quickly found the first secret mark.
Afterwards, I used this secret sign to find the direction of the sword tip, and gradually went deep into the narrow alleys of Cangzhou Mansion.
The place became more and more remote as we walked, and soon we reached a deserted place.
As he walked further, Jiang Ran's ears twitched.
There seems to be no one here, but there is a faint sound of breathing in the darkness.
Apparently someone was hiding from the guards.
Jiang Ran was not surprised but happy, which meant that he had found the right place.
Sure enough, after walking a few steps further, I saw a grain and oil store also open in the narrow alley.
But under the plaque, in a very inconspicuous place, was printed the secret mark of the Sword-holding Si Yamen.
Jiang Ran smiled and stepped into the store.
The shopkeeper is a hunched old man.
After hearing the noise, he raised his cloudy eyes and glanced at Jiang Ran:
"Who is it?"
"If you are buying food, I want Longya rice."
Jiang Ran said expressionlessly.
The old man glanced at Jiang Ran and said,
"That's expensive. Do you have enough money?"
Jiang Ran took out the knife-catching order from his sleeve with a dark face, unfolded it and gave him a look:
"That's enough."
"Come with me. "
When the old man saw this, he turned around and led Jiang Ran inside.
Jiang Ran sighed and couldn't help complaining in his heart. He didn't know which idiot came up with the secret code.
It was obvious that he was telling others that there was something wrong with this grain and oil store.
Moreover, the Sword-holding Office was clearly established by the imperial court, so why was it so secretive?
So, there really is something wrong with this sword-wielding department, right?
Are you worried that the Jianghu people will find out and come over to ruin the place?
After frantically typing in his mind, he heard a click. The old man had opened a secret door and walked in on his own.
After entering, he took down an oil lamp from the wall on one side and lit it casually. He turned around and smiled at Jiang Ran: "
This road is not easy to walk, so be careful where you step."
"Thank you."
He said to himself immediately. There fell into silence.
The old man walked very slowly, and Jiang Ran couldn't move faster even if he wanted to.
The dark passage is deep and there is no difference in the scenery at all.
It can't help but give people a feeling that no matter how they go, they will never reach the end.
Fortunately, feelings are just feelings.
After almost a stick of incense, there was light in front of my eyes.
The originally smooth road began to slope upward.
Finally, the old man stopped.
He reached out and pressed lightly on the wall, and with a click, a door opened.
The old man said softly:
"Just go in, the master is inside."
Jiang Ran glanced at the old man, thought slightly and walked past him, passed through the door, and came to a place where the sky was dark.
There are shelves here, big and small, with all kinds of scrolls on them.
Jiang Ran didn't regard himself as an outsider. He picked up a volume and took a look at it. It was a case report.
I put it back casually and picked another roll, but it was the same.
He heard a voice laughing and said:
"On these bookshelves are the records left by the top masters of the Jin Chan Dynasty after they committed crimes over the years."
Jiang Ran had a strange expression when he heard this voice:
"Master Liu?"
"Yes, yes, yes, I Over here."
Master Liu's voice came from behind the bookshelf.
After Jiang Ran walked around, following the light of the oil lamp, he saw a table placed between the bookshelves.
Master Liu was sitting behind him writing furiously.
Jiang Ran walked up to him, lowered his head and glanced:
"What is this?"
"Copying...arranging."
Master Liu yawned greatly:
"I'm tired...I know that the job entrusted to me by your Excellency is absolutely impossible." It won't be so easy.
"But now it seems that he is still underestimated. "
After he finished speaking, he looked up at Jiang Ran and stood up:
"I've met Mr. Jiang. "
Don't dare. " "
Jiang Ran said with a smile:
"I asked you why the master didn't do anything anymore and went to the Sword Holding Division Yamen.
"Isn't this considered a promotion?"
"Not really."
Master Liu said with a smile:
"But Master has no official status. The position of the head of the Sword-wielding Yamen can be regarded as a genuine ninth rank." The
ninth rank is Ninth grade... you are still upright.
Jiang Ran didn't know what expression to make for a moment, so he could only clasp his fists repeatedly:
"Congratulations, congratulations."
Master Liu... No, Chief Liu quickly smiled and said:
"You are so polite, it's all thanks to you.
" "Hey, Now that his old man has gone to Kanglong Pass to serve as the commander-in-chief, he doesn’t know if he will ever have the chance to meet him again in this life. "
When he said this, he paused slightly and said:
"Oh, there are too many gossips.
"Young Master Jiang is here on important matters."
"Not really."
Jiang Ran casually placed the two heads on the table: "Just take a look and see if you can recognize them?"
Boss Liu opened the bag. , carefully identified the head, and after a long time shook his head:
"I am so old, even though it is well preserved, I can't identify it.
" Jiang Shaoxia still gave a clear indication. "
"The two gentlemen of Yang and Moon, Duguyu and Yin Yueniang. "
Huh? " "
Hearing this, Chief Liu immediately rummaged through the cases on the table, but couldn't find them:
"This name is familiar. I just sorted it out not long ago..."
After finishing speaking, he went to the bookshelf next to him to look through it. Looking for it.
Sure enough, he soon got two scrolls tied together and came to Jiang Ran.
"Found it, found it!" "
He untied the rope and pulled the scroll away.
"Yangjun, whose real name is Duguyu, learned from Miaofeng Sanren and inherited the unique Lieyang Divine Art.
"Yin Yueniang and Yin Yueniang are brothers and sisters. They have been together since childhood and have a mutual affection for each other.
"The two poisoned the wedding banquet of Miaofeng San and Yin Yueniang in the past, and jointly attacked and killed Miaofeng San, and obtained the last level of Lieyang Divine Art and Leng Yue Dharma..." The details were recorded in it
.
From childhood until he grew up, everything he did in the world was recorded, as long as it could be investigated.
At the same time, at the beginning of this scroll, there is a portrait.
Boss Liu looked at the portrait and the head for a long time before nodding:
"It's indeed him.
" "Young Master Jiang, I haven't seen you for a few days. Could it be that your martial arts has improved again?" "
" It's a bit of a new experience. "
Jiang Ran smiled slightly.
"As expected of a person valued by adults.
"To be honest, when your lord wanted to give you the order to capture the sword, I felt something was wrong in my heart.
"But I didn't expect that in just a few days, Jiang Shaoxia would be able to defeat such a master.
"It's really amazing!"
After he said this, he turned around and came to the wall.
There are several metal pipes there that lead all the way to the upper level.
He stretched out his hand and tapped on the pipes respectively, which was obviously a signal to communicate with the upper class.
A moment later, a click was heard, and another secret door opened on the other side.
It was a girl who came in.
She wears a black mask on her face, and her specific appearance cannot be seen, but her graceful figure can be recognized at a glance.
She came to Jiang Ran with a tray in her hand.
"Thank you."
Jiang Ran glanced at what was on the tray, which was a total of nineteen thousand taels of silver notes.
When I reached out to take it, the system prompts came as expected.
[Target of arrest: Yangjun Duguyu. ]
[Task progress: Completed. ]
[Reward: ten years of inner strength! ]
[Target of arrest: Yue Jun Yin Yueniang. ]
[Task progress: Completed. 】
【Reward: Leng Yue Dharma (53 years)! ]
Jiang Ran's heart skipped a beat when he saw the former.
Although he knows that it is impossible to get the opponent's martial arts every time he gets a reward.
But... Duguyu and Yin Yueniang are different after all.
The martial arts of these two people really made Jiang Ran hungry.
If he can get the skills of the two of them, and then use the Creation Right Heart Sutra to perfect it, his Creation Right Heart Sutra can directly enter the ninth level.
Among these two skills, the one that excited Jiang Ran the most was the Lieyang Magic Skill.
As soon as the inner breath turns, it is like a blazing sun reaching up to the sky.
As a result, Duguyu only 'exploded' ten years of internal strength.
On the other hand, Yin Yueniang gave the Leng Yue Dharma.
"Well, it's better to get one of the two than to get neither."
If he spent so much effort and only gained twenty years of inner strength, then Jiang Ran would really be unwilling to accept it.
After thinking for a while, Jiang Ran opened his system interface again.
You can see that the bottom line has also changed.
[Remaining life span: two years, ten months and nineteen days. 】
About five months longer than last time.
In other words, Lord Yang and Moon alone gave Jiang Ran five months of life.
Although not as good as the previous two times, there were many people there.
This time, just two people have achieved such a harvest. As expected, this master is more of a 'nurturer'.
Just as he was thinking of this, he heard Boss Liu say:
"Jiang Shaoxia, let me introduce you again."
"Huh?"
Jiang Ran looked up, a little confused.
Boss Liu pointed to the girl standing on the side:
"Her name is Qingli, and she will be responsible for connecting with you from now on.
" She will not be with you all the time, but she will often be in the same place with you. So that you can find her at any time.
"For example, if you encounter a situation like today, you don't have to waste time coming to the Sword-holding Division Yamen. Instead, you can directly call Qingli to your side through a secret message. "Let
her run errands for you.
"Besides, if you need anything, you can just ask her.
"Ask her to do it for you..."
"What about? "
For example, if you want a certain person's case, she can get it for you at any time. If she knows it, she can also tell you the details directly." "
Headmaster Liu said:
"Now that you have come to the Yamen of the Sword Holding Division, everyone who has the sword catching order will have such a person by his side to assist him.
"Of course, if Jiang Shaoxia doesn't want to, he doesn't have to do it.
"I don't dare to force this. Jiang
Ran glanced at Qingli thoughtfully and smiled slightly:
"This is a lot more convenient. There seems to be no reason to refuse." "
You are not following closely, and you don't have to worry about being monitored.
As for whereabouts, Jiang Ran has no intention of hiding anything. After all, even if he is not Qingli, he often has to deal with the local officials wherever he goes. This whereabouts are
basically It can't be covered up.
It would be a lot more convenient if Qingli was always in the same place with him.
Especially the Sword-holding Si Yamen...
Nowadays, they are only opened in various prefectures and are not found in ordinary county towns.
And in Jiang Rantuo Without opening the body, the importance of the green raccoon is self-evident.
"Okay, then it's settled.
Boss Liu nodded.
Jiang Ran smiled and said,
"But I refuse. " "
Ah?" "
Boss Liu was stunned.
"I'm not used to people following me.
"If there's nothing else to do, I'll take my leave now."
Jiang Ran hugged his fists at Boss Liu, turned around and walked towards where he came from.
Boss Liu had no choice but to nod: "Okay, walk slowly."
But after Jiang Ran took two steps, he paused slightly and looked back:
"Where is this place?"
"Under a private house."
Boss Liu smiled and said,
"I can't reveal the specific location."
Jiang Ran nodded and walked towards where he came from without asking any more questions.
After crossing the secret door through which they came in earlier, they saw the old man still waiting.
Seeing Jiang Ran coming back, he held up the oil lamp and continued to lead him.
