Ran Yan immediately fell to the ground, and with a bang, a knife flew overhead with a cold light, inserted into the trunk of the tree in front of him, and the blade of the knife buzzed.

Without waiting for a moment to catch his breath, another whistling wind came.

Ran Yan quickly turned over, and watched a large wooden stick with the thickness of her arm coming towards the door in front of her, and she didn't allow her to pay attention to anything else at the moment, so she waved the dagger to block the wooden stick.

But this person's strength is obviously much greater than Ran Yan's, Ran Yan's blocking, only formed a fierce buffer, the wooden stick still smashed on top of her head, but the strength was weakened, and she was not stunned.

Ran Yan rolled over and rolled out of the murderer's attack range, and after gasping for breath, she also saw the murderer: he was dressed in black cloth, and his entire head was tightly wrapped, revealing only a pair of eyes.

The light in the forest was too dim, Ran Yan was frightened, and before he could get used to his eyes, the stick wind of the man in black swept again.

One inch short and one inch dangerous, although Ran Yan's hand was a sharp weapon, he was forced to retreat by the opponent's long stick. The person specifically beckoned Ran Yan's head, and if he wasn't careful, he might be knocked unconscious. And the other party is obviously good at martial arts, even if he is not smart, he is not Ran Yan's opponent, the two of them are face-to-face, her arm has been several sticks, she is sweating in pain, but the only life-saving dagger she is holding in her hand does not dare to let go.

The speed of the opponent's swing stick also stagnated twice, and it seemed that he was surprised that Ran Yan suffered such a great force, I am afraid that the bones of his hand are broken, and he can still resist stubbornly

After this short pause, it was followed by more violent attacks, but this short breath was enough for Ran Yan, she endured the pain and secretly took out a packet of medicinal powder, and swung it out before the opponent's stick arrived.

The stick hit Ran Yan's Tianling Gai with a whistling wind, this time, she didn't even hide, just when she felt that she was going to die, the stick abruptly stopped at half an inch of her head, and the cool wind swept her scalp numb.

When Ran Yan raised his eyes, he saw a strong man swinging his sword and cutting the wooden stick like a turnip, and the long knife went straight to the chest and abdomen of the man in black. Ran Yan recognized this person as Xiao Song's bodyguard, called Bai Yi. She breathed a sigh of relief at the moment, but her feet were soft and did not seem to be stepping on the ground, and she had just moved half a minute when the ground under her feet collapsed abruptly.

"Stand there and don't move" Xiao Song hurriedly arrived, and saw this shocking scene, and at the same time as he drank this, his body flashed like electricity, and his long arms grabbed Ran Yan's waist, and he borrowed slightly from the ground that was collapsing, and fell back to his original place.

The incident happened between lightning and flint, Ran Yan was tightly clamped in Xiao Song's broad arms, only to hear a bang behind him, and Xiao Song's long breath.

Ran Yan turned his head and saw a big pit where Fang was standing, and the soil collapsed along the place where Ran Yan stepped on it, revealing the bamboo poles erected with sharp points inside, and he couldn't help but gasp.

It seems that the murderer had planned to take her life a long time ago.

Relieved, Ran Yan hurriedly reminded, "Go find Gelan and Evening Green"

Xiao Song's voice was a little hoarse after relaxation, "Don't worry, the two of them are only a little injured, and the master of Yuncong Temple is treating them." ”

"Where's the void?" Ran Yan asked.

Xiao Song paused and said, "She is alive and kicking, and she cries very strongly, but if I am a little late, it will be you who will die."

Ran Yan breathed a sigh of relief, the things she was most worried about had been settled, and she couldn't help relaxing, Xiao Song had a slightly cool water vapor on her body, and the masculine aura surrounded her, her face was pressed tightly on her strong chest by Xiao Song with his hand from the back of her head, and her powerful heartbeat could be clearly heard.

The situation is a little awkward.

In order to divert his attention, Ran Yan secretly calculated in his heart, raised his head and asked, "Your heart beats one hundred and four per minute, have you been idle for too long, causing your body to deteriorate?" ”

Xiao Song's face turned dark, although it was not called a minute, but it did not affect his understanding of this sentence at all, he dared to love this hero to save the beauty, and at the end he was disgusted by the beauty, and his body was not good enough Xiao Song snorted, "Don't worry about Dr. Lao Ran, even if you run the whole mountain, there will be no problem." ”

Because of his tall height, the top of Ran Yan's head only touched his chin, and he couldn't see Xiao Song's slightly drooping eyes with a strange look.

After a while, Xiao Song let go of Ran Yan, and his face was as usual with a faint smile, "Can you still move your hands and skip words."

With a slight movement of his arm, there was a piercing pain, and a cold sweat suddenly broke out on his back.

"Broken bones?" Xiao Song frowned, and a compelling power was unconsciously revealed.

Ran Yan hissed, "The left hand is fine, the right forearm is broken." ”

Xiao Song tore off his sleeves without saying a word, skillfully helped her handle her arms, his black hair dripping with water hung down on the side of his face, chest, and back, soaking his plain white clothes, and the sturdy chest, abdomen and back could be faintly seen from the speckled moonlight leaking from the branches, and the well-defined face and neck were stained with shiny droplets. It looked like he had just crawled out of the tub in a hurry.

Behind him, Bai Yi and the man in black were in full swing, and Ran Yan, a layman, also saw that the man in black was already at the end of his crossbow in a short time, and he was afraid that he would not last long. Ran Yan was thinking about it, but he saw that as soon as the black-clothed man's weapon was loosened, he took the initiative to hand his chest to Bai Yi's knife.

Before Ran Yan could open his mouth and make a sound, he heard a pop, and the blade penetrated his body.

Bai Yi was stunned and pulled out his sword. The man in black slowly slipped down against the trunk of the tree, and fell crookedly on the edge of a bush, his eyes slightly turned to face the mouth of the woods.

The soldiers who had just surrounded him didn't expect this person to seek death, and they were stunned for a while. The noise in the woods fell silent abruptly, save for the crackling of torches.

"Subordinates should be damned" Bai Yi reacted, and hurriedly knelt down to Xiao Song to ask for guilt. I didn't sweat a few drops in the fierce fight just now, but now I suddenly soaked my entire clothes.

Tonight, Xiao Song asked him to protect Ran Yan from twenty zhang away and ambush and arrest Su Fu by the way, but he only arranged people to wait for Su Fu to throw himself into the net, causing Ran Yan to almost lose his life. Protect Ran Yan and ambush "by the way...... Xiao Song said that he didn't say no, but he privately thought that Ran Yan would not be in danger, and it was more important to arrest Su Fu, which was his first, and the second was to kill the important suspect in the case by mistake.

Xiao Song helped Ran Yan to leave, glanced at Bai Yi lightly, didn't seem to have the slightest anger, and said calmly, "Uncover the cover." ”

According to experience, Bai Yi felt even worse, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore at the moment, so he casually stuck the sword by his side and reached out to open the mask of the man in black.

An extremely ordinary face was revealed, about forty years old, with peaceful eyebrows and eyes, a serene demeanor, and a faint mist in his eyes, and he slowly closed his eyes after muttering "Nan no Amitabha".

Ran Yan recognized this person as Mrs. Jingyuan, but wasn't she taken into custody? But if you think about it, she is a monk who doesn't care about the world, and no one thought that she could do martial arts, and ordinary prison cells can't control her.

Ran Yan's body is not very good, and after a fierce fight, he has long been a little unable to support it, once he relaxes, there will be bursts of flowers in front of him, and the picture he sees is becoming more and more blurred, his body shook, and he only heard Xiao Song's anxious call, and then fell into an extremely warm place.

A dreamless night.

The coldness in the quilt in the early morning made Ran Yan wake up suddenly, and moved her body slightly, and the dull pain in her right arm instantly spread to every nerve ending, and she even stood up with cold hairs in pain.

"Xing Niang?" Ran Yan shouted.

The sound of footsteps outside seemed a little eager, but after a while, Ran Yan saw Xing Niang's face that was soaked in tears and was a little swollen, Xing Niang sat down in front of the couch and said in a hoarse voice, "But I can scare the old slave to death, it's good that the lady wakes up, it's good to wake up."

Ran Yan suddenly thought of yesterday's incident, "Master Jingyuan is dead?" ”

"Dead, monks, you deserve to die," Xing Niang gritted her teeth. After that, he said softly and gently, "The lady has been meditating here for more than a month, it is better to ask Lang Jun, let's go back to the house, it is too dangerous outside, now there is a marriage proposal between the Xiao family and the Cui family, and Lang Jun is also close to you." ”

Is it safe to go home? I'm afraid not. Ran Yan hummed undeniably, and did not argue with Xing Niang.

"Lady awake?" Evening Green came in with a basin of water, and her voice was hoarse.

Ran Yan looked up and saw her neck wrapped in a thick plain cloth.

Wan Lu noticed her gaze, touched her neck and smiled, "I haven't been able to get past my neck for a murderer recently, no, I was hung to a tree again last night, hehe, but this time Gelan was hung with me, so I have a companion." ”

Xing Niang knocked her on a chestnut violently, and said angrily, "You should be a good thing, the three masters and servants took a dangerous trip to the ghost gate, and they looked like monkey skins with a hippie smile."

Wan Lu said it easily, but she was also a little afraid in her heart, last night fortunately Bai Yi came in time, she and Ge Lan were hung on the tree for only a few breaths, and they were supported by their hands, otherwise such a thin and tough thread would only take a moment to cut off their throats.

Wan Lu rubbed her head, approached Ran Yan and whispered to her, "Phantom Sky is waiting at the door, saying that Liu Tingshi is leading people to dig the grave, do you want to see it?" ”

Ran Yan's heart moved, and he got up and said, "Let's go, let's take a look." ”

Seeing that Ran Yan was going out again, Xing Niang immediately glared at Wan Lu fiercely, and stopped Ran Yan and said, "Lady old slave please stop, if it wasn't for Xiao Langjun's rescue last night, you can ...... He can't always protect you in the future, so it's better for the lady to leave these things alone. ”

When it comes to Xiao Song, Xing Niang's heart is full of regrets, she was originally very optimistic about Xiao Song, dignified, high-ranking officials, dignified and calm, and seems to be a person who can protect people

And last night's incident confirmed Xing Niang's guess, but it's a pity that Xiao Song's life is too hard. Xing Niang is dedicated to Ran Yan's goodness, so naturally she only wants peace and does not seek fame and fortune, so she gives up painfully.

"Jingyuan is not necessarily the real murderer, or maybe there are accomplices, I have to go and see, otherwise her accomplices will come to kill me again, wouldn't it be worse?" Ran Yan comforted Xing Niang while being served by Wan Lu and put on her clothes, "When this case is concluded, I promise that I will not get involved in this kind of thing again." ”

After this incident, Ran Yan also completely understood that although the laws of the Tang Dynasty were relatively perfect, they were not as good as her time, and she didn't even have the strength to keep them, and if she continued to perform the autopsy, she might not be wiped out one day, and even the people around her would probably suffer. So what she said to Xing Niang was definitely not just perfunctory.

It seems that there is no other way out.

Ran Yan lowered her eyes and sighed, just like she had thought at the beginning, to practice medicine in Datang to earn some money, and then find a lover to marry out. It's just that at the beginning, she deviated from the track she originally envisioned, so that once she participated in the case and got the scalpel for dissection, the blood all over her body instinctively burned, and she had already forgotten herself.

This lesson was like a slap in the face, and it made her sober.

Xing Niang saw that she looked serious and there was a depressed look between her eyebrows, so she didn't stop it anymore, but said, "It's good that the lady can understand." ”

Xing Niang sighed and watched Ran Yan go out, if her own lady is no longer willful, Sang is really a no-choice, even if there is no Boling Cui clan, with the skills of the two of them, they can live no.

Ran Yan put on the power fence, just walked out of the door, and saw the phantom sky shrunk by the bamboo fence, a little face was even paler than when she saw it yesterday, she saw Ran Yan come out, stood up, and said in a weak voice, "You said last night that you would help me with the autopsy, do you still count?" They are digging their mother's grave ......"

"Count naturally." Ran Yan looked at her, and her expression softened unconsciously, "However, can you hum last night's song to me again without skipping words."

Phantom Kong looked at Ran Yan blankly, and said for a long time, "When you don't have a stiff face, you look so good." ”

Ran Yan was stunned, but listened to her, "Then I'll sing, you have to count." ”

As he spoke, he hummed softly, with a slight immaturity in the bleak tune, Ran Yan walked slowly, and walked side by side with her to the outside of the nunnery.

Listening to Phantom Kong humming a song all the way, when he approached the outside of the nunnery, he heard the sound of nuns chanting.

Yesterday passed by the side door near the two more government soldiers, saw Ran Yan and Phantom Kong, did not stop, as soon as Ran Yan entered the door, he saw the nuns sitting cross-legged around the tomb, hands folded, reverently reciting the ** of the undead.

Half of the grave has been dug up, Xiao Song couldn't help frowning when he saw Ran Yan, but he didn't ask, but explained the case, "Half of the grave is newly buried, and it has obviously been dug up recently, but the surface turf is very well covered." You would have been here yesterday? ”

Ran Yan squinted his eyes and looked at the early morning sun through the soap veil, falling on the bright red begonias, "I heard the singing of the phantom sky, so I took a look, and I didn't want to correct the murderer's plan." ”

Xiao Song's eyes turned sharply to the phantom sky, "Why did you come here last night?" ”

Phantom Sky shrank behind Ran Yan and whispered, "Master told me that it was my mother's sacrifice day, and the begonias bloomed just right, and my mother could hear me." ”

Yes By].
