Chapter 160 After the little
Jingtan layman finished speaking, Jiang Ran, Tang Huayi and Ruan Yuqing who were present all fell silent.
Even Mr. Da, who had been writing beside him, couldn't help but look up at Jingtan layman.
Seeing that his eyes were full of memories and begging for approval, Jiang Ran sighed softly and murmured in a low voice:
"It's true, people are obsessed with love if they are not charming."
Jiang Ran glanced at him and suddenly patted him. Knee:
"Not good!"
Everyone present was shocked.
Jingtan layman also looked around, thinking that the Blood Sword Hall was making a comeback, but he was still wondering, why did it come so fast?
Then I heard Jiang Ran say:
"I was careless. I forgot that Mr. Da is still here.
" I'm afraid the old man has remembered all the past events that the senior just mentioned. "
Mr. Da quickly covered his notebook after hearing this, fearing that Jiang Ran would snatch it away.
Jingtan layman shook his head gently:
"It doesn't matter...it's not a shameful thing at all. "
That's right, the layman is a sensible person, but he is much better than a certain junior!" Mr.
Da glanced at Jiang Ran and touched his beard:
"But now, I understand."
"Why did you have that fight seven years ago...
" At that time, I was quite far away from where you were, and I was wondering that although you two had some entanglements with each other, there seemed to be no hatred. This fight came for no reason.
"It turns out that the root cause turned out to be Guan Jinqiu."
Jingtan layman nodded slightly:
"These old events were originally intended to be kept in my heart for the rest of my life.
" If it weren't for this time that he wanted to borrow the Jiaowei Qin from Jiang Shaoxia, it would have ended Jin Qiu's life. Qiu Yuyuan, I will not tell you frankly.
"Please help me keep it a secret, Mr. Da."
Mr. Da nodded:
"It's easy to tell... I will include the whole story in the Centennial Pavilion. Counting from the time I join the Pavilion, it will not be made public until a hundred years later.
" "As for the golden cicada." As mentioned in the Legend of Xia, it is just a slight excuse.
"In the future, future generations will be able to get a complete picture of today when they read history and combine it with each other."
Jingtan layman thought for a moment and nodded.
A hundred years later, he has long since passed away, and no matter what happened at that time, it has nothing to do with him.
Finally Jingtan layman looked at Jiang Ran and said,
"Young Master Jiang, I have made it clear to you.
" "I wonder how Young Master decides?" "
Let's do this..."
Jiang Ran said: "We will make a decision after the tea tasting and piano appreciation meeting is over." At that time, if the Jiaowei Qin is still in Jiang's hands, it must be lent to a layman. "
Jingtan layman knew that this was the limit that Jiang Ran could reach.
He immediately stood up, cupped his hands and said,
"Thank you, Young Master Jiang. "
Don't dare. " "
Jiang Ran didn't want to accept this gift and stepped aside a little.
Jingtan layman said:
"In addition, I have another unkind request..."
"Senior, please tell me. "
Jiang Ran waved his hand gently.
"Since we have to wait until the eighth day of October, there is still some time left between this place and Sunset Ping.
"I plan to stay with Young Master Jiang... so that I can take care of him."
Since Jiang Ran agreed to borrow the piano, there must be no glitches with the piano at least before the eighth day of October.
Although judging from the martial arts Jiang Ran showed today, it was already extraordinary.
But people are unpredictable, and martial arts is the foundation of one's life, but it is by no means everything.
It's always safer to have more than one person around to look after you.
Jiang Ran didn't refuse when he heard this, and even if he declined, wouldn't Jingtan layman not follow?
What else can be done then?
killed?
Not to mention that the reason Jingtan layman was with him was to help him protect Jiaoweiqin.
Even if he wasn't, he was still on the right track. He didn't have a name on the wanted list, so killing him would just be a waste of time.
It will also ruin your own reputation.
Jiang Ran was supposed to be a knife hunter, but he was put on the wanted list for killing innocent people indiscriminately... That would be a big deal in the world.
Now that they have said yes to each other, the topic has gradually changed.
Jingtan layman is very knowledgeable and knows a lot about astronomy and geography. Although he is aloof, once we talk to him, he is quite interesting.
Jiang Ran saw that what he had said about the blood-piercing formation was clear and logical, so he asked for advice.
When Jingtan lay people ask for help from others, they tell them everything they know.
When I gave an evaluation on the formation method, I still got the same four words: bullshit.
He shook his head gently:
"The idea of combining the four phases and five elements is certainly good, but the combination is extremely rough.
" Xuanyuan Yidao is not good at learning skills, and he shows off everywhere. If he encounters someone who doesn't understand, he will just give it up.
"It's okay to fool people.
"Once you meet someone who knows the key, it won't work.
"I took action earlier because I saw the flaw in his formation.
"He wanted the Four Elements and the Five Elements to complement each other, but unfortunately there was always a moment when they did not interfere with each other even though they did not restrain each other.
"The Four-phase Sword couldn't kill me, and the Five Elements' Traces couldn't trap anyone. Naturally, I captured them in one fell swoop." He
immediately named the key points one by one.
Although Jiang Ran thought it sounded obscure, he most likely didn't understand its meaning.
But he listened attentively.
There are many people in this arena who know how to arrange formations.
Among the five major sword sects, Danyang Sword Sect and Liuyun Sword Sect, the combination of the two formations is extremely difficult even for people like Shi Pingzhang to break.
The enchanting ghost wall of the Ghost Palace is also based on the formation, with enchanting orders written on the wall.
It makes people trapped in the formation and unable to escape, and they can only be affected by the confusing order all the time.
If it weren't for the protection of the Zhengxin Sutra, once he stepped into it, even if Jiang Ran could suppress the confusion in his heart for a while, he would definitely get lost in it over time.
Then there will no longer be that kind of good thing like jumping out of the range of the formation.
In terms of emotion and reason, Jiang Ran felt that he should understand a little bit.
Now when I listen carefully and think carefully in my mind, I have some vague insights.
After Jingtan layman finished speaking, he said:
"In my humble opinion, this junior, if it is as the senior said, it is better to separate the four phases and five elements.
"Although the five elements lack the sword, they still have their own power.
"And the four-phase attack is powerful, but if it goes for a while, although it is not as difficult to defeat as the five-phase attack, it will definitely be more powerful.
"It is better than constraining each other and having someone see through the vital points. "
That's exactly the truth. " Jingtan layman nodded repeatedly: "
It's a pity that Xuanyuan Yida couldn't see where this joint is and thought he was smart." "
Jiang Ran sighed:
"The junior is just making an evaluation based on the current situation. It's not me who is smart, but the seniors who are smart.
"Otherwise, if it is the junior himself, he can only use his martial arts to break the formation."
"Young Master Jiang is interested in the battle method?"
Jingtan layman looked at Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran nodded: "I am indeed interested, but it's a pity that I have no way to study."
Jingtan layman heard this and a smile appeared on his lips. He dug into his sleeves, took out a bamboo slip, and handed it to Jiang Ran.
"This is it?"
Jiang Ran took it subconsciously.
"Young Master Jiang and I were able to agree to lend Jiaowei to me when we first met, which shows that we are worthy friends.
"Since you are curious about the battle method, I happen to be involved in it.
"This book [Hundred Formations Diagrams] is a collection of essays that I have studied in formations over the years.
"There are both simplifications and profound methods. Although it is not formal in itself, I think it can also help Jiang Shaoxia understand the formations. changes.
"Now I will give it to Young Master Jiang to establish a good relationship."
Jingtan layman smiled lightly and said in a sincere tone.
Jiang Ran smiled slightly, knowing that Jingtan layman said this because he was actually worried that he would break his promise and gain weight in the future.
Now he not only agreed to the other party, but also accepted the other party's favor.
After the eighth day of October, it will be really difficult not to borrow it.
He immediately smiled and said,
"In that case, this junior would be disrespectful."
Seeing Jiang Ran accept the bamboo slip, Jingtan layman breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that more than half of the matter was over.
Looking around, everyone else was asleep except Ruan Yuqing who was still listening.
Even Mr. Big was leaning against the tree trunk with his pen in his mouth and snoring loudly.
In the end, Ruan Yuqing waited until the middle of the night before she couldn't bear it and fell asleep completely.
Jiang Ran and Jingtan layman talked all night.
When dawn broke in the east, everyone woke up and found that Jiang Ran was still there talking to Jingtan layman about the formation.
Ruan Yuqing shook his head:
"You are still chatting..."
Seeing them wake up, Jingtan layman felt as if he had been granted amnesty:
"That's great... It's dawn, shouldn't we set off?"
Jiang Ran was a little disappointed. He glanced at Dongfang and sighed:
"Unfortunately, I still have a lot of questions that I haven't asked yet."
"I'll ask you tomorrow."
Ruan Yuqing said with a smile: "It's still some time before Sunset Ping. It's quiet for a while. Master Tan is with us, and there is plenty of time for you to study."
Jiang Ran nodded when he heard this:
"It is true, the way of formation is indeed profound and profound, and it cannot be achieved overnight.
"I will trouble you, Master Tan, in the future ." . "
Jingtan layman regretted his proposal to go with Jiang Ran and the others yesterday.
That night, he was tortured deeply.
Jiang Ran has good qualifications, high understanding, and the ability to draw inferences from one instance.
As he said, this Tao is profound and profound, even if ordinary people Even if you spend a lifetime of energy, you may not be able to master everything.
Although Jingtan layman claims to be a master, he cannot be proficient in everything. However, although Jiang Ran is a beginner, he gets started quickly. The
questions he asks are tricky and weird, and some of them are even learned by Jingtan layman himself. I have never thought about it, how can there be an answer to this?
In order not to show any cowardice, I just talked about him.
After one night, there are too many things to mention.
It makes Jingtan layman feel miserable.
As a senior, naturally he cannot lie. Deception.
And the Jiao Weiqin matter has not been settled yet, so
we can only muddle along like this.
It is really unbearable. I finally made it to daybreak, but when I think about the next period of time, I have to be... However, he was entangled with all kinds of tricky and weird questions, and for a moment he felt a bit desperate. How could
other people know the suffering of Jingtan Jingtan?
Tang Huayi even patted Jiang Ran on the shoulder:
"Jingtan Jingtan is a senior. , scholarly heavenly being, I am very relieved that you have such an opportunity.
"You must study hard and never let down this good relationship."
"..."
Jingtan Jingtan layman secretly said, please stop saying a few words...
Then Jiang Ran nodded repeatedly:
"This is natural."
Jingtan layman: "..."
Ruan Yuqing looked at Jiang Ran in surprise.
"Li Tianxin" talked to him like this. In the past, he would never stop. Today, in order to learn the formation, he was so obedient.
Although his martial arts skills were so high, he could still learn from him humbly, and he didn't even bother to quarrel with 'Li Tianxin'.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but secretly admire him.
After everyone woke up, they cleaned up individually, while Luo Qingyi prepared breakfast, everything was done with ease.
After eating, Jiang Ran and others gathered the people from the Blood Knife Hall together and dug a big pit to bury them.
After death, people should still be buried in peace.
There are ferocious beasts in this forest. There was someone there last night. If you leave today and leave the body alone, there is no guarantee that it will not fall into the belly of the beast.
In line with the rare tenderness in this cold world.
Jiang Ran collected the bones for them.
After everything happened last night, everyone went back on the road.
But when Jiang Ran was about to carry the famous name, Jingtan layman took the first step to help Jiang Ran carry it.
By the way, he asked what happened to Man Shengming.
Jiang Ran said casually, while Jingtan layman was a little surprised.
See Jiang Ran and the others were ruthless in killing people yesterday, and even robbed the dead of their belongings.
I didn't expect that there would be such an act of saving lives.
The journey was peaceful for the time being, but Jiang Ran felt that it was not possible to rush along like this.
Previously, I planned to go sightseeing all the way, so I never rode a horse.
But now that there were many injuries, he couldn't carry it like this all the time. Jiang Ran planned to buy a carriage and a few horses in the next town, so that everyone could save some energy when moving.
It takes half a day to walk like this.
Jingtan layman and Gu Xizhi have known each other for many years, and they really understand each other extremely well.
Gu Xizhi, who left last night, followed everyone this morning as he said.
He paid no attention to anyone, just like a normal person.
Jiang Ran asked him to go with him, but he just said: "We don't agree with each other."
Jiang Ran stopped arguing with him.
Half a day later, Jiang Ran and others came to a town that looked quite dilapidated.
Tang Huayi raised his head and glanced at the mottled wall, and couldn't help but exclaimed:
"Can there be carriages for sale here?"
"It's not like we are so poor..."
Jiang Ran smiled: "Go in and have a look."
It's just a step. As soon as they set foot in the town, everyone felt that sights were coming from everywhere.
Some are ordinary people walking on the street, some are beggars begging on the roadside, there are also guests chatting in restaurants, and there are also women posing in front of the windows of brothels.
Ruan Yuqing frowned slightly:
"Be careful, there's something wrong with this town."
Tang Huayi sneered:
"Someone who doesn't care about life or death is here again."
"Please be patient."
Jiang Ran smiled:
"Let's go, find a place first. Let’s eat.”
Jingtan layman sighed in his heart, Jiang Ran still had a big heart.
This town was obviously extremely weird, and he still had time to eat first...
Just as he was about to say something, he saw Ruan Yuqing, Tang Huayi and others nodding.
I was a little confused for a moment.
He didn't understand Tang Huayi's disguise as 'Li Tianxin', but Roushuijian still had a great reputation.
Now that we see something weird in this town, shouldn't we advise Jiang Ran not to cause more trouble and leave as soon as possible?
Why are you messing around with him?
However, since I had just arrived, it was hard for me to speak casually.
I could only follow Jiang Ran, watching him pick and choose from behind, and finally came to a rather run-down restaurant.
"In the whole town, this is the only restaurant that I can pass by.
"We'll just make do with it, have a bite and then we'll leave. "
Jiang Ran asked everyone to sit down and shouted again:
"Where's the waiter? "
Come on, come on. " "
A young man who looked extremely thin trotted all the way to the crowd and said,
"I've seen a few guests... What do you want to eat?
" Is there any wine? "
Jiang Ran asked. "
Yes!" "
The younger brother suddenly smiled: "Your Majesty, you are here, our restaurant, there is nothing like running on the mountains and swimming in the water... But good wine is enough... you don't know. Our shopkeeper has a jar of 30-year-old Nuerhong!
"This is the treasure of our store!"
"Thirty-year-old daughter's red?"
Ruan Yuqing was stunned for a moment:
"This..."
The so-called daughter's red is often buried deep in the ground when the daughter is born.
When you are old enough to get married, you will take it out to entertain your relatives and friends.
It usually only lasts for more than ten years...
The treasure of this store is the daughter who has been red for thirty years. Doesn't it mean that the shopkeeper's daughter is still unmarried at the age of thirty?
In this era, if she didn't wander around in the world, she could definitely be called an old girl.
Even among those who live in the world, there are only a few who are still unmarried at the age of thirty...
Luo Qingyi blinked:
"Then the daughter Hong of these thirty years is probably worth a lot of money, right?"
"That is certainly extraordinary... ...How many of you are here?"
The waiter looked at the money bags around Jiang Ran and others' waists.
Jiang Ran casually took out an ingot of gold and said softly,
"Give me a jar."
"Okay!"
The younger brother's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw the money.
He wiped it in his hand, took another bite, and then hurried to get the wine.
As a result, Jiang Ran called him back before he could even take two steps.
I also ordered a few side dishes to go with the wine, as well as staple food such as steamed buns and sesame seed pancakes.
The second brother's legs were like hot wheels, and he disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Jingtan layman said softly:
"There's something wrong with this restaurant, Young Master Jiang... It's better not to drink this wine."
Jiang Ran nodded:
"Senior, don't worry, I'll drink less."
As he said that, he took it off his waist. I picked up the wine gourd and drank several sips.
"..."
Jingtan layman felt that he had said it in vain.
Just these few mouthfuls would make most people drunk.
He sighed, not wanting to say anything more, and decided to wait and see what would happen.
After a while, the second brother came over from behind with a wine jar with mud on it.
Place it gently on the table, turn around and walk away again.
When I came back this time, I had a big tray in my hand.
It has pork and mutton, stir-fried vegetables and cold dishes, and the combination of meat and vegetables is very good.
The second brother happily put the tray on the table and said with a smile:
"The dishes are here, please use them slowly..."
Jiang Ran nodded and picked up the chopsticks as if to pick up the food, but just as the chopsticks were about to fall down At that moment, it suddenly turned sharply, and there was a ding sound, but it was caught on a dagger.
The waiter who was poking Jiang Ran's waist and eye with a dagger was stunned for a moment, his face full of ferocity:
"Death!!"
He used all his strength to press the dagger, trying to pierce Jiang Ran's heart.
Unfortunately, it didn't move at all.
As soon as Jiang Ran pressed his chopsticks, there was a bang, and the second brother fell to his knees involuntarily.
He knelt so hard that the bluestone ground cracked.
The bones made a cracking sound.
