Chapter 113 When Jiang Ran
came out of the inn from the Sword-holding Si Yamen, he felt a little awkward.
This trip made him feel a little unspeakable about Si Yamen.
I have to say that I am disgusted, but that’s not the case.
But there is always a little more worry in my heart.
"Every knife catcher with a knife catching order will be followed by someone like Qingli.
" Although he is not always with him, it still makes people feel awkward.
"Are you worried that the knife won't work well?"
Jiang Ran shook his head. His purpose was actually very simple.
Through the sea arrest documents issued by the court, he kept people alive.
In the process, if he makes more money, one day he can live to the end of his life, and after washing his hands in the golden basin, he can also live a better life.
Why did the imperial court establish a sword-holding department, and why did the sword-holding department's yamen become so secretive?
Jiang Ran didn't want to care about it, and he couldn't.
In the final analysis, he is just a commoner. The court is too far away and has nothing to do with him.
As long as it doesn't exceed his bottom line, just let them go.
But if he had this green raccoon follow him, even if it wasn't close to his body, Jiang Ran would feel like he was being controlled by others.
I am even more worried that under the influence of influence, I will inadvertently do something that I didn't want to do.
The situation will become very troublesome.
Therefore, Jiang Ran refused simply.
When he walked out of the narrow alley and onto the busy streets of Cangzhou Prefecture, these things were temporarily forgotten by him.
Walking along the street, Jiang Ran went back to the inn first.
Collect the rewards from the Second Lord of Yang and Moon.
Needless to say, he has already become accustomed to it by now.
However, Lengyue Dharma is worth mentioning.
This is superior martial arts.
Following Jiang Ran's thought, a vast inner secret suddenly flowed in his heart.
Just like the Great Brahma Vajra Secret, as Leng Yue's true energy emerges from the Dantian, every bit of it is swept away by the Creation Zhengxin Sutra.
This time Jiang Ran had more experience than the last time, so he gave himself a lesson first.
Only then did he assist the Zhengxin Meridian in digesting the cold moon energy.
This time the time was much shorter than the last time. An hour and a half later, Jiang Ran opened his eyes and slowly landed on the bed from mid-air.
He opened his palms, and a touch of cold air naturally arose, and then condensed into ice spikes, rising and jumping on his palms.
"Leng Yue Nail..."
Jiang Ran flicked his hand and the ice nail collapsed, but he felt relieved.
Now that he has read the entire Lengyue Dharma, Jiang Ran naturally knows a lot about Lengyue Ding.
It was precisely because of this that Jiang Ran knew that Leng Yueding should not be underestimated.
This nail is made from the condensed energy of Leng Yue, and contains cold poison. Once it hits, the opponent will not only suffer unbearable pain in the area where it is penetrated, but also have cold poison enter the body.
If there is no expert to help expel it, even if it seems to run away, it will only delay the death.
Nowadays, Jiang Ran does not use Leng Yue's true energy to activate it, but uses the Zhengxin Sutra of Creation, fused with the cold energy of Leng Yue's Dharma, and creates the Leng Yue Nail, which has more of an essence of "like controlling infinity". Among them, the power surges.
"It can be said to be a relatively vicious martial arts."
Jiang Ran gave an evaluation in his mind.
In the Leng Yue Dafa, Leng Yue Nail is not the only method.
In addition to this, there is also a grappling technique called [Leng Yue Opera] and a set of [condensing water into ice] methods.
The latter, in particular, is extremely malleable.
However, it requires water before it can be used.
Otherwise, like Yin Yueniang, you have to use your own blood as a guide, and it is also possible to coagulate blood into ice.
Finally, there is a move among the internal skills [Cold Moon in the Sky], which stimulates the internal energy of the whole body, leaps into the air, looks like a cold moon, and slams down.
According to the saying in the secret book, 'The air-conditioning is like boiling, and the ice burns the entire wasteland'.
Whether this is an exaggeration or not is a matter of opinion.
Jiang Ran felt that the Great Brahma Vajra Secret and the Lengyue Dharma contained in the Right Heart Sutra of Creation seemed to be connected in series through the Right Heart Sutra of Creation.
But after he gave it a try, he found that it was not as easy as he imagined.
After all, these two martial arts are very different and have nothing in common. It is only through the connection of the Zhengxin Meridian of Creation that it is possible to cohere.
But this needs to be carefully tried and deduced, and not rushed.
Moreover, Jiang Ran carefully thought about it, if he combined these two martial arts, and when he performs the Brahma Vajra Technique, the Vajra who is originally wearing a Taoist robe, and there is a cold moon on his back... will the painting style become different
? Something strange?
After thinking about it for a while, Jiang Ran stopped thinking about it.
Instead, he went to chat with Liu Wenshan.
Waiting for the evening, Ye Jingshuang returned with Mingyue. Both girls were very tired.
But the harvest was good.
There are many houses that I am interested in listed, both large and small.
The most expensive ones cost tens of thousands of taels. Jiang Ran glanced at it and realized that the Tang Mansion...
this house was really big... one entered after another, one courtyard after another.
The Tang family emptied out overnight, and this huge mansion was taken back by the government.
I guess Guo Chong's handwriting was still there.
Nowadays, the price is clearly marked and sold.
Jiang Ran thought for a while and realized that the house was too big for two people to live in, so he naturally skipped it.
It is estimated that even Ye Jingshuang has no intention of letting Jiang Ran take over this house.
Just let him know.
The others are some houses with relatively normal prices.
The more expensive ones are only a few hundred taels, and the cheapest ones are dozens of taels.
However, this kind of thing is not suitable.
At least Jiang Ran didn't feel it was appropriate.
In any case, on the surface, this house was not given to Liu Wenshan, otherwise there would be no reason for Jiang Ran to pay for it.
If Jiang Ran were to buy a property on his own, with his current wealth, he would naturally not buy a small house that could be bought for a few dozen taels of silver.
After picking and choosing, I finally chose a decent-sized three-entry courtyard.
The price is three hundred and fifty taels.
The courtyard is not too big, and the three entrances are due to the layout.
It won't feel too empty for two people to live in.
There is a front yard, an atrium and a back yard, and there are four side rooms on the left and right, plus the wing rooms and the main room, so there is room for a lot of people.
The more Jiang Ran looked at it, the more he thought the yard was good. After discussing it with Liu Wenshan, Liu Wenshan didn't get too entangled and nodded in agreement.
It was getting late now, so it was hard to do anything, so I made an agreement with Ye Jingshuang to buy the house early tomorrow morning.
Everyone here had made up their minds, and when they turned around, they found Li Tianxin walking into the inn door with a lost look.
He raised his eyes and looked around, his eyes were empty.
Jiang Ran was a little puzzled:
"Why does it look like this? Is this Zhihua capable of cannibalism?"
Ye Jingshuang was also a little surprised, and his mind began to lose control of his fantasies.
What if Zhang Zhihua has ulterior motives?
Li Tianxin followed him out this time. Could it be that something unexpected happened?
Could it be that there is a conspiracy in this?
At this time, Li Tianxin finally focused his eyes on Jiang Ran and his group. He immediately rushed over, picked up Jiang Ran's wine bowl and drank it.
He let out a sigh of relief, as if he had just come back to his senses.
After looking at Jiang Ran intently for a while, he stood up and said,
"I'll go first! After you finish your work, come find me."
"Ah?"
When Jiang Ran and others were stunned, they saw He had already hurried upstairs.
After a while, he came down again carrying his own baggage.
After nodding to Jiang Ran and others, he rushed out of the door and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Only Jiang Ran and the others were left looking at each other.
Liu Wenshan looked confused:
"What happened to this child?"
"I don't think that sister is a bad person..."
Mingyue also expressed her opinion in a low voice.
Ye Jingshuang and Jiang Ran looked at each other, and they both saw confusion in each other's eyes.
This gesture of running away was either because someone took advantage of him, or he took advantage of someone else. I guess he couldn't think of a third possibility.
But looking at him like this, he probably didn't suffer much, so he didn't take it to heart.
In the remaining two days, besides busying themselves with the house, Jiang Ran and Ye Jingshuang were looking for someone to arrange work for Liu Wenshan.
For this reason, Jiang Ran went to the Sword Holding Division Yamen again to ask for help from Chief Liu.
Boss Liu took care of everything, which reassured Jiang Ran.
In fact, this is indeed the case. For him, some things are just a greeting.
Jiang Ran went to see him in the morning, and things had been arranged by the afternoon.
Let Liu Wenshan serve as a teacher in the government-run academy of Cangzhou Prefecture.
This matter is over.
Other than that, nothing happened during this period, everything was peaceful.
That is to say, on the second day, Zhang Zhihua came to look for Li Tianxin again. He knew that Li Tianxin had run away, and he felt a little distraught for a while.
There were no further visits after that.
After Jiang Ran and Ye Jingshuang had almost arranged the matter, they said goodbye to Liu Wenshan and Mingyue and continued their journey to Hongfeng Mountain.
Liu Wenshan and Mingyue were both a little reluctant to leave, and they only stopped after sending them all the way out of the gate of Cangzhou Mansion.
Watching Jiang Ran and Ye Jingshuang gradually disappear from sight.
Liu Wenshan turned around to leave, but found that Mingyue was still standing there without moving.
He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and looked at his daughter carefully before sighing and patting her shoulder.
Mingyue was stunned and looked up at Liu Wenshan, her eye circles a little red.
Liu Wenshan smiled:
"Go home."
"Yes."
The father and daughter turned around and returned to Cangzhou Mansion.
After taking two steps, Mingyue couldn't help but look back. However, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't see the two people.
...
...
Hongfeng Mountain needs to go all the way south.
To be honest, it's not too far. After all, something happened to the Ye family that night. Ye Jingshuang fled all the way, but she ran into Jiang Ran in just half a night.
According to the normal journey, starting from Cangzhou Mansion, it can basically be reached in half a month.
If you use Qinggong to rush on the road, or ride a horse, the distance can be shortened by almost half.
Jiang Ran and Ye Jingshuang were on their way on horseback this time.
The two of them spent the night at dawn, not in any hurry.
Although Jiang Ran had been worried about the old drunkard before, now that he knew that the old drunkard was unusual and far away in Jinyang Mansion.
There's no need to worry at all.
If you want to get to Jinyang Mansion, you have to cross mountains and ridges, almost crossing the entire territory of Jin Chan Dynasty.
This cannot be achieved in one or two days.
He had already planned that he would see the scenery of the rivers and lakes along the way, and he was no longer as eager as before.
Eat something delicious, watch something nice, and live up to the life you fought so hard for.
And the reason why we must go to Hong Maple Leaf’s house.
In addition to reassuring Ye Jingshuang, Jiang Ran also planned to visit Sunjiazhuang.
Although Jiang Ran felt that the reward for the knife-catching mission was very deceptive.
But...he finally got the whereabouts of Jiao Weiqin.
Now that you have it, there is no reason not to look for it.
Otherwise, if something unexpected happened and Jiao Weiqin was obtained by others, Jiang Ran would still feel uncomfortable.
On this day, the two of them walked to a place with no village in front of them and no store behind them. They saw dark clouds rolling in, and it looked like the sky was about to change again.
"The weather has been really crazy lately. It's too hot when it's hot, and it's suffocating when it's cloudy.
"It's so easy to look forward to a rain, but it happened while we were rushing outside. "
Jiang Ran glanced at the sky above his head and couldn't help but muttered a few words.
Ye Jingshuang smiled and said:
"This is an unexpected situation.
"That's because there's no weather forecast. " "
"? ? ? "
Ye Jingshuang was a little confused again. After spending time with Jiang Ran for a long time, she could always hear some strange and unheard words from Jiang Ran's mouth.
And whenever she wanted to delve deeper, Jiang Ran would Waving his hand:
“Don’t worry about the details. "
Ye Jingshuang was no longer entangled.
He turned his eyes, but was suddenly stunned:
"Brother Jiang, look over there..."
Following Ye Jingshuang's finger, he saw a small building in the distance.
There is such a place next to the main road in this out-of-the-way place?
The two people looked at each other and felt something was wrong.
"Have you seen him before?"
Jiang Ran asked Ye Jingshuang casually.
After all, it is not too far from Hongfeng Mountain.
As soon as Ye Jingshuang shook his head, the rain stars in the sky had already fallen. The big raindrops hit the sky, which showed that the rain was full of force.
Once it does fall, it's a downpour.
Seeing this, Jiang Ran nodded:
"It's too dangerous to ride horses in this weather.
" If there is a problem with this house, we can just take it.
"If there's no problem, let's stay overnight...wait for the rain to stop before we go on our way.
"But you still have to be careful, don't capsize the boat in the gutter. "
Okay." "
Ye Jingshuang nodded and had no additional opinions.
Jiang Ran's martial arts skills are superb, and his swordsmanship is also pretty good. With this confidence, even if there is something weird in this place, there is no need to worry too much. The two
people immediately urged The horses moved forward.
The small building was not too far away from them, and in a moment, they had arrived.
There was also a small courtyard in front of the building, where some chickens and ducks were raised.
At this time, they were all locked in cages, shivering. , waiting for the heavy rain to fall.
There were some carriages scattered around the yard, but no horses. They
were presumably placed elsewhere.
In addition, there was a large fence hanging on the wall of the small building.
When you go out and encounter a house that does not have an inn sign but a big fence hanging outside, it means that it is also an inn. You
can spend money to stay in the hotel and buy food and drink.
Seeing this, Jiang Ran and Ye Jingshuang looked at each other and said He turned over and dismounted.
Just as he was walking inside, he saw a middle-aged man coming out of the door and saying,
"You two, come in quickly, and I'll help you with your legs. "
The so-called 'foot power' refers to Jiang Ran and Ye Jingshuang's horses.
Jiang Ran said thank you, handed the reins to the middle-aged man, and led Ye Jingshuang through the door first.
Their front legs were just As he entered the door, he heard a loud explosion and thunder. When he turned around, the heavy rain had already fallen.
Jiang Ran shook off the water stains on his hands and looked back at Ye Jingshuang:
"It's so dangerous. "
Ye Jingshuang nodded and looked inside. The first floor was turned into a hall.
There were many tables and chairs, and scattered guests were sitting among them, drinking tea and chatting casually.
Some were merchants on their way, and some were people with weapons. They
seemed to be quite harmonious.
I didn’t pay much attention to the two of them. I glanced at them and ignored them.
There was a person behind the counter who was keeping accounts.
Jiang Ran and Ye Jingshuang came to the shopkeeper. Jiang Ran and Ye Jingshuang came to the front. The shopkeeper glanced at the two of them and said before they could speak:
"There are quite a few guests on the way today, but now there is only one room left... ...
"What do you two say?"
Ye Jingshuang glanced at Jiang Ran, and Jiang Ran smiled:
"That's just enough."
In fact, even if there are rooms in this inn, Jiang Ran plans to get a room.
It's not that he has any undue thoughts about Ye Jingshuang.
Mainly because it is an unusual place and someone has to be vigilant.
One room, one bed, and two people taking turns to rest is the best way.
"Okay, okay."
The shopkeeper nodded immediately, and just as he was about to say something, he saw the middle-aged man outside the door walking in, drenched all over.
The shopkeeper also waved to him:
"Old Wang, take them upstairs."
"Okay."
Old Wang had a simple and honest face. After hearing this, he just shook his head and smiled at Jiang Ran and Ye Jingshuang:
"Follow me, you two."
As he spoke, he passed by them and walked to the second floor.
Jiang Ran stared at this person, but he had not noticed it when he glanced outside. Now when he listened carefully, he could see that this person's breathing was light and thin, and there was a strange pattern hidden in it.
It seems that a mysterious mental method is running at every moment.
Unfortunately, his steps were heavy, as if he didn't know martial arts...
which was a bit weird.
The stairs were in disrepair and creaked with every step.
In a matter of moments, the three of them were already upstairs.
The old Wang led them to a room and said with a smile:
"This is your room.
" If you need anything, just call me at any time.
"It's free to eat when you stay here, but you can't choose. You can eat whatever is in the store.
"If you want to eat something else, you have to pay money according to the price... By the way, you also have to pay money for drinking. of. "
Jiang Ran nodded while listening. Just when he heard this, there was the sound of horse hooves coming to the door of the inn. He
lowered his head to look and saw that several fast-footed people had already entered the door.
He saw a young man shouting loudly:
" Damn it, this damn weather is killing people.
"Where's the shopkeeper? I'll bring you any good wine or food. I'll give you the money."
Jiang Ran looked at him and was slightly startled. This man... was the young man who designed Zhang Zhi's paintings in the woods that day.
Why did he come here?
