Chapter 9
It was as if the wind was riding on the feet of the tea shop, and the surrounding scenery flew by and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Jiang Ran felt as if he could run to the end of the world like this!
Of course, he also knew that this was just an illusion.
However, the feeling brought to him by this set of Nine Steps of Heavenly Stems was completely different.
Every time I lift my Qi, I feel as if my body is as light as a swallow.
It was completely different from the clumsy rush before.
At the same time, the true energy in the body is flowing, emerging one after another, endlessly, and I feel endlessly relaxed as I fly along.
Subconsciously go faster and faster.
Just as I was about to forget what was going on, I heard Ye Jingshuang's voice coming from behind:
"Mr. Jiang... just wait for me!"
After hearing her words, Jiang Ran just woke up from a dream and looked back. Ye Jingshuang's face was pale with a hint of blush, and his breathing was a little heavy.
The wounds on his body had a faint appearance of being opened, with some blood seeping out, which was then melted away by the rain.
"Miss Ye, what's wrong with you?"
"..."
Given Ye Jingshuang's temperament, at this moment, she also had the urge to curse.
After this person learned the Nine Steps of Heavenly Stems, he ran without caring and completely forgot about himself.
If he hadn't shouted, he might have gone somewhere.
But now looking at Jiang Ran's innocent face, he finally took a deep breath and calmed down his mind: "It's nothing, it's just that
Mr. Jiang is walking too fast, and I can't keep up..."
If She was not injured, so she was not unable to keep up.
But at this time, after all, he was injured both internally and externally. He was running too fast and was unable to breathe internally, and the wounds were also threatening to burst.
If she continued like this, she might be killed by Jiang Ran before the pursuers came to kill her.
Jiang Ran scratched his head:
"Is this... fast? I still have some unfinished ideas...
"If the girl can't keep up, then I'll just walk slower.
"How about we go under the tree first and rest for a while?"
"That's not necessary."
Ye Jingshuang adjusted his breathing a little to calm down the surging energy and blood in his body. He just looked at Jiang Ran again, but he couldn't hide the look in his eyes. Shocked expression:
"Young Master Jiang's understanding is indeed astonishing. No wonder his internal skills are so impressive at such a young age.
"The Nine Steps of Tiangan seem to be simple but complicated. I thought that even you, after becoming familiar with the inner skills of the footwork, would need a night. Only through enlightenment can you get started.
"But I didn't expect that I could use it as soon as I brought it."
"The girl is so impressed."
Jiang Ran smiled slightly: "I don't have any understanding, it's just that the girl taught me well."
Ye Jingshuang shook his head slightly:
"Jingshuang Everything he said was sincere and full of praise."
Jiang Ran looked at Ye Jingshuang's expression and knew he was not joking.
But as a result, Jiang Ran was a little confused.
Could it be that my understanding is really very high?
But when I learned swordsmanship from the old drunkard in the past, the old drunkard complained more than once, saying that his qualifications and understanding were really unsatisfactory.
His sword technique is called [Nine Swords] because it only has nine moves.
Jiang Ran liked knives in his previous life, and given this opportunity in this life, he was very interested in this knife technique even though he knew his own situation.
I dare not slack off for a day, but it is indeed not fast to enter the country.
He started holding a knife at the age of six, and it wasn't until he was fourteen that he became somewhat successful.
After six years of polishing, according to the old drunkard, his sword skills are barely usable.
This also made Jiang Ran never have expectations for his own qualifications and understanding.
But he didn't expect that he would receive an astonishingly understanding comment from Ye Jingshuang today.
"Could it be that the old drunkard hit me on purpose?"
Jiang Ran pondered for a moment, feeling that this was the only explanation.
However, he did not dwell too much on this issue.
Now that Qinggong has been learned, the two of them started walking much faster than before.
After walking in the dark all night, the rain finally stopped after dawn.
On the way, I met a farmer and took a set of clothes from the clothes drying pole for Ye Jingshuang to change into. Of course, he also left some money, so Quan thought he bought it.
Ye Jingshuang's outfit can no longer be worn after a long night of tossing it over last night.
The blood stains were too heavy and eye-catching.
However, Jiang Ran's clothes were just wet and he felt a little uncomfortable wearing them.
Ye Jingshuang also taught him how to dry clothes using his internal power. Jiang Ran had been yearning for this for a long time. He had profound internal power and he was dry in no time if he followed the law.
The two of them moved on for another day and night without incident.
Another day, it was a nice day, the sun was shining brightly and there was no cloud in the sky.
The two of them followed the wild path and used Qinggong to go to Cangzhou Mansion.
While walking, I heard Ye Jingshuang say:
"There seems to be a tea shop in front of you, so be careful."
Jiang Ran nodded.
The road they took was a bit remote, and it was hard to tell what kind of road it was for such a wild tea shop.
Of course you have to be a little more careful.
But if nothing happens, it would be good to take a break and drink a sip of tea to moisten your throat.
The two looked at each other and knew that they had the same idea.
He immediately slowed down and walked towards the tea shop.
In front of the tea shop is a tall pole with a banner hanging on it and a huge "tea" character written on it, which looks very eye-catching.
There were not many customers in the tea shop at this time.
They were sitting in twos and threes, chatting casually about their parents' affairs and gossip.
Jiang Ran and Ye Jingshuang looked at each other and walked into the tea shop.
I saw a young man who looked very smart and came over quickly:
"What do
you want, sir?" "Although we are a tea shop, we also have good wine, meat, and fragrant white flour steamed buns. You two come over." How many won’t come?
"Forget it about meat and wine and steamed buns. Just bring us a pot of tea. " "
Before Jiang Ran could speak, Ye Jingshuang took the lead and said.
The younger brother glanced at Jiang Ran and saw that he had no objection. He nodded immediately:
"Okay, you two, sit down and we'll be there soon. "
As he spoke, he took the rag on his shoulder and scratched it twice symbolically on the table, then turned and left.
Just as Jiang Ran and Ye Jingshuang sat down, Jiang Ran raised his head and glanced at a tree outside the tea shop.
He was slightly startled, and just as he was about to talk to Ye Jingshuang, he heard the sound of horse hooves.
Looking around, I saw smoke and dust everywhere, and a group of people arrived in front of me in a blink of an eye.
There were a lot of people in this group. Six horses were currently leading the way, and there were guards on the left and right sides. In the middle was a soft sedan chair.
Behind the sedan, there were more than ten guards with swords on their bodies.
The group of people arrived at the tea shop in a blink of an eye. The first horse reined up its horse, stretched out its hand and shouted:
"Stop!"
The whole team stopped immediately.
The man got off his horse and came to the sedan in a few steps. He said softly:
"Madam, this is a tea shop. Brothers have been running around for a long time. Do you want to take a rest before leaving?"
A soft voice was heard from the sedan. It came out:
"Okay, let's take a rest, but Guard Geng remembers to tell you not to drink alcohol."
"Yes, thank you madam!" He
immediately turned around and waved his hand gently:
"Madam has ordered me to dismount and rest, and not to drink alcohol."
