Chapter 90: The mission of catching a knife is completed [ ]
Last night, Li Tianxin took action with the Dahua Divine Sword and took advantage of the chaos to rescue Ghost Thirteen.
Although Jiang Ran didn't understand why he suddenly intervened.
But the little old man escaped and Tong Wanli was led away by him.
He shouldn't be in any danger.
But if it was really unlucky to memorize words and get caught by that little old man, then I can only blame him for meddling in his own business.
As for what his purpose is...
we can only ask this after he comes back.
Leaning on the handrail of the corridor, his eyes fell casually.
Just at the door of the inn, someone came in.
This man was dressed in white, his whole body was as cold as ice, and he was holding a long sword in his hand.
"Is she that prodigal woman from the Danyang Sword Sect?"
After all, she was someone he had just met a while ago, so Jiang Ran naturally recognized her at a glance:
"It's really cold..."
It was a quick glance that night, but now we see her again. Her temperament is as cold as her sword. She is not pretending to be cold and arrogant like Li Tianxin.
Her coldness is not ice, but a sword, cold and sharp.
Perhaps Jiang Ran's gaze was a little scorching, and the woman noticed it, raised her head, and met Jiang Ran's eyes.
At this moment, her face showed some changes, and she obviously recognized Jiang Ran, and then she found a table to sit down as if nothing had happened.
The second brother hurriedly came forward and asked what he wanted.
Jiang Ran stopped paying attention.
The door behind him creaked, and Ye Jingshuang pushed it open and came out:
"Sir, I've been waiting for a long time."
Jiang Ran glanced at her and smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter... By the way, do you know the Danyang Sword Sect?" "
Of course. You know, the Danyang Sword Sect and my Liuyun Sword Sect are both among the five major sword sects of Jinchan, and our two sects have always been on good terms with each other and are familiar with each other."
Ye Jingshuang gave Jiang Ran a strange look:
"Why do you ask this, sir? ?"
Jiang Ran motioned her to come forward and asked her to follow his gaze.
"Huh?"
Ye Jingshuang was stunned for a moment and blurted out: "Shi Miao!?"
The sound was louder than Jiang Ran expected, and the woman in white who was sitting there waiting for the waiter to pass the dishes naturally also Attracted by the sound.
Jiang Ran suddenly raised his head and when their eyes met, Jiang Ran discovered that the cold temperament of the woman in white suddenly disappeared the moment she saw Ye Jingshuang.
Her eyes widened:
"Senior Sister Ye?"
After saying that, she didn't even bother walking up the stairs. She took a step forward and jumped up, directly to the second floor.
He grabbed Ye Jingshuang's hand and said,
"Sister Ye...why are you here?"
"It's a long story."
Ye Jingshuang looked at the woman in white carefully and smiled softly:
" It's been a long time since we last saw each other. It should have been three years since the last Five Sects Sword Meeting, right?" "
Yes."
Shi Miao nodded, his eyes gradually moved away from Ye Jingshuang and fell on Jiang Ran.
The bright spring-like gaze in her eyes turned cold instantly: "Senior
Sister Ye... who is he?"
Ye Jingshuang raised his head and glanced at Jiang Ran, and said with a smile:
"This is Jiang Ran Young Master, you are my benefactor."
"Benefactor?"
Shi Miao was stunned for a moment. Then when he looked at Jiang Ran's eyes, the coldness faded a bit. He thought for a moment, then clasped his fists and said,
"I have met my benefactor."
"..."
Jiang Ran didn't expect such a situation.
Should I lament that this world is too small, or should I lament that there are too many coincidences?
But this cold woman's name turned out to be Shi Miao...it didn't sound very consistent with her temperament.
He glanced at Shi Miao and shook his head slightly:
"Miss Ye is too serious. She is not a benefactor. There is no need for the girl to be so polite...
" Since we all know each other, why not eat together? "
Shi Miao immediately looked at Ye Jingshuang.
When she saw her nodding in agreement, she beamed with joy. However, when her eyes moved away from Ye Jingshuang's face, she returned to her cold look again.
Jiang Ran was a little puzzled. Has the girl ever learned how to change her face?
How can her emotions change so quickly without any trace of connection?
"Mr. Jiang, please go down with Shi Miao first.
"I'll call Uncle Tong and the others."
Ye Jingshuang said at this time.
Jiang Ran then told him,
"Your uncle has to keep someone on his side."
"Yes."
Ye Jingshuang nodded, indicating that he understood.
Jiang Ran went downstairs on his own.
I found a place to sit down and asked the second brother for some food and drink.
Immediately afterwards, a figure flashed, and Miao was already sitting opposite him, looking at him coldly.
Jiang Ran frowned slightly:
"What do you think of me like that?"
"Senior Sister Ye will never lie. If she said you were her benefactor, then you must be kind to her.
"But she is from the Liuyun Sword Sect. How can a high disciple easily give others a chance to be kind to others?
"What on earth is going on?"
Shi Miao stared at Jiang Ran, looking for an explanation.
Jiang Ran looked at Shi Miao with a strange expression:
"You don't know?"
"I...why do I know?"
There was no doubt on Shi Miao's face, and it became even colder.
Jiang Ran nodded thoughtfully, and asked again:
"Do you have any grudge against the people in Zuodaozhuang?"
"No."
Shi Miao shook his head:
"The heretics gathered in secret, and they must have some agenda.
"We met. , naturally we cannot ignore it. We, holding the sword, should wipe out the injustice in the world. "
Jiang Ran suddenly realized that she thought she was a cold-blooded master who only wanted pleasure, but she turned out to be a heroine. She wanted to say
something, they just gathered together and didn't do much, so why bother to be so ruthless? ?
But then I thought about it, he didn't understand Zuo Daozhuang, nor Shi Miao, so what he said was a bit presumptuous.
Then he simply stopped talking.
Then the two of them fell into silence.
Jiang Ran looked outside the inn door, not knowing what he was looking at.
Shi Miao looked at Jiang Ran without blinking.
Jiang Ran was thick-skinned and didn't care. It wasn't until Shi Miao could faintly hear the sword's intent that he turned around in surprise:
"Have you become murderous after watching it for so long?"
"...You haven't answered my question yet."
Shi Miao said every word. Suddenly, it was obvious that his patience had been exhausted to the extreme.
"Something happened to Hong Maple Leaf's family. When she was being chased, I rescued her."
Jiang Ran picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea:
"You came here because of Dao Wuming?"
"After you left, he could only ask for help. Me."
When Shi Miao said this, his breath became even colder:
"What happened to the Ye family?"
"You really don't know..."
Jiang Ran was silent for a moment and shook his head:
"This matter is not as good as yours. Just ask Miss Ye directly."
"...Okay."
After these words, the two of them were speechless again, and began to fall into a longer silence.
The last person to break the silence was Ye Jingshuang who came down from upstairs.
Behind her were Mingyue and Tong Wanli.
Zhou Wang and Tong Yan were not seen. Tong Yan was seriously injured and might not be able to get up today. Zhou Wang should have gone to guard Liu Wenshan.
Mingyue's face showed caution and caution.
After all, when I woke up, a cousin I had never met before and a senior I didn't know suddenly came.
Even if Ye Jingshuang reported her identity, she would not believe it easily.
It wasn't until she went downstairs and saw Jiang Ran that she visibly relaxed.
After a few steps, he came to Jiang Ran:
"My benefactor..."
He spoke softly and looked at Ye Jingshuang and the others.
The searching meaning in his eyes is very strong.
Jiang Ran introduced her.
He said that what he told Ye Jingshuang was no longer the same thing. After listening to it, Mingyue suddenly realized:
"It turns out it's really my cousin... Yue'er is ignorant. She suspected her cousin just now. Please don't blame her."
"I don't blame you."
Ye Jingshuang looked at Mingyue. Although he couldn't say he felt the same way about her experience, he could understand it.
She took her cousin's hand and said softly:
"Don't worry, no one will bully you anymore."
Mingyue shook her head:
"It's okay to bully me, but dad..."
"Your dad has been rescued. "
Jiang Ran interrupted at this time and said:
"It's just that he was injured and is resting in the room now. After you finish eating, go and see him." "
Ah!?"
Mingyue looked back at Jiang Ran, it was true. Did you not expect that after asking Jiang Ran to take action yesterday, your father would already be back after this night?
He was surprised and happy for a moment:
"Thank you so much, my benefactor!"
He said, kowtowing to Jiang Ran again.
Jiang Ran had no choice but to stop her and took another look at Ye Jingshuang.
Ye Jingshuang sighed and helped her up:
"That's all. It's just that there are too many lice and it doesn't itch. If there are too many debts, there are no worries. You and my sisters owe him too much.
"Just listen to the young master, eat first, eat After you're done, go up and see your uncle. "
Well..."
After hearing what Ye Jingshuang said, Mingyue was a little curious about the relationship between Jiang Ran and Ye Jingshuang.
But this was obviously not the time to ask more questions.
So she sat down and waited for dinner.
At this time, Jiang Ran was looking at his system interface in a daze.
This time, the knife-catching mission was completed after telling Mingyue.
[Knife-catching mission: Rescue Liu Wenshan!]
[Mission progress: Completed!]
[ Mission reward: 'Jiaoweiqin's clue', please wait patiently...]
Jiang Ran looked at this mission reward and fell into confusion.
Jiaoweiqin's clue...
This reward seems to be related to this incident.
However, please What the hell is waiting patiently?
Has the system reflected reality? Does this reward have to be given to him through other people?
Jiang Ran suddenly felt that this knife-catching task seemed a bit of a trap.
Not only that, he took another look at his lifespan.
As a result, he After looking at it carefully for a long time, and counting with his fingers for a while, he finally came to a conclusion!
His life span... increased by one day!
One day!?
Jiang Ran could hardly believe his eyes.
Based on the current situation. Look, the reward the system gave you for the first time was indeed a blessing.
Therefore, you got a year's lifespan and a dozen years of internal strength.
But even if it doesn't work out in the future, you can't only get one day's reward!
On this day, fight Where do you think it is?
"Young Master Jiang? Jiang Shaoxia? "
Tong Wanli's voice reached his ears, which made Jiang Ran come back to his senses from this depressed mood. He
raised his head and glanced at him:
"Senior Tong, what are your orders? "
Nothing. " Tong
Wanli smiled slightly and said,
"I'll go out to buy medicine in a moment. Young Master Jiang has other things he needs. I can bring them back too." "
That's okay. " Jiang
Ran nodded:
"I do need some gadgets. I will write them down later and ask Senior Tong to buy some for me."
"Okay, it's a small matter. " "
Tong Wanli laughed and agreed happily. He just looked at Jiang Ran again and whispered:
"If you have time, young hero, can you help me take a look at my useless thing?
"I know that he was offended by Young Master yesterday, so please don't take offense, Young Master."
Jiang Ran suddenly realized and shook his head:
"Young Master Ling may have some misunderstandings about me, but it's just a trivial matter, don't worry, Senior Tong. "
That's good, that's good."
Tong Wanli nodded repeatedly, seeming to feel more at ease.
There was nothing to say after that, just casual chatting while eating.
There were only two people on the entire table who didn't speak.
One was Ming Yue who was busy working on his meal, and the other was Shi Miao who was as cold as ice and could only carve the words "Keep away from strangers" on his forehead.
After waiting for the meal, Jiang Ran found the Four Treasures of the Study, wrote something and gave it to Tong Wanli.
Tong Wanli agreed and walked out of the inn.
Jiang Ran and his group returned upstairs and asked Zhou Wang to go down to eat.
Mingyue couldn't help but blush when she saw her father lying there unconscious.
But thankfully, at least the person is still alive.
Jiang Ran quietly walked out of the room without disturbing her. He went back to his room first, and when he went out, he already had an extra baggage in his hand.
It's Xu Hongyi's head.
He carried the head and walked on the streets of Benma County. After wandering around for a moment, he came to a place.
What I saw when I looked up was the county government office of Benma County.
In front of the county government office, two government officials were standing on either side of the branch under the scorching sun. When they saw Jiang Ran arriving, they immediately stopped him:
"Who are they? How can you break into the important place of the county government office?"
Jiang Ran turned around in his arms and found a token. :
"Can you recognize this thing?"
The two government officials looked at me and I looked at you, each looking confused.
Jiang Ran sighed:
"Excuse me, please do me a favor. Show this token to the county magistrate. Don't miss anything."
After hearing what Jiang Ran said, the Yamen servant glanced at the token in his hand again, and after thinking for a moment, , then Jiang Ran was asked to wait here, and he turned around and entered the county government office.
Jiang Ran didn't take it seriously and stood on the street with his baggage.
Pedestrians were coming and going on the street, but no one could have imagined that the young swordsman standing on the street was holding a human head.
Not long after waiting, I saw the yamen servant hurriedly walked out of the county yamen.
After seeing Jiang Ran, he trotted all the way to the front, handed over the knife-catching order with both hands, and said with a smile on his face: "Your
Majesty, please come in, I will show you the way, please!"
"Thank you very much. ."
Jiang Ran nodded, feeling relieved.
The reason why he came here was because of the knife-catching order.
Master Liu once said before that the order to capture the sword has the privilege of giving a reward of silver first and then verifying the true identity.
Otherwise, for a veteran criminal like Xu Hongyi, there may not be a notice for his arrest in the county government.
Now that the county magistrate knows this knife-catching order, things will be easier to handle.
As the yamen servant entered the county yamen, after a short while of twists and turns, he came to a hall.
A middle-aged man had been waiting for him for a long time, and then he turned around to look when he heard the sound of footsteps.
After seeing Jiang Ran, he smiled and clasped his fists:
"I have been seeing you young hero for many years."
