53. How are you
"Oh? Then I'd like to see what kind of girl is so fanatical about the Temple of Constant."
Qin Lan said unhurriedly, with a posture that had to be seen
Zu Jinchao smirked twice, for the sake of it:
"I'm afraid this is not appropriate, if I let the oracle know that I showed that girl to others first, I will dislike her for being impure, and I can't afford to blame her when the time comes."
Qin Lan said lightly:
"It's not a big deal, three days later, the divine messenger came, and I naturally told him that it has nothing to do with you"
Saying that, Qin Lan put down the dishes and chopsticks, and was about to walk like Zhainan
When everyone saw this, they didn't dare to drink and have fun, you look at me, I look at you, and finally cast their eyes on the ancestors and the present dynasty
"You stay here, I'll follow, no one will follow"
Zu Jinchao's face changed for a while, and he gave an order, and then walked briskly in front of Qin Lan and said:
"I'll lead the way for Brother Qin"
The two of them went one after the other, and soon came to a house in the south of the stockade
Opening the door, when Qin Lan saw the sleeping girl on the bed clearly, her pupils shook violently
Ye Xiaoxiao!
How did she end up here!
Qin Lan's eyes widened, and her breathing became a little heavier unconsciously
Brother Qin wouldn't have fallen in love with this girl
Zu Jinchao's heart trembled, this girl is indeed the best in the world, and his heart couldn't help beating wildly when he first saw it, but thinking of the divine envoy he was about to face, Zu Jinchao forced himself to calm down
"This girl, I want it"
Qin Lan stabilized his mind and spoke
Zu Jinchao's heart suddenly had 10,000 Cao mud horses galloping past
I'm really afraid of anything!
Taking a deep breath, Zu Jinchao thought of a two-way strategy and said:
"Brother Qin, this girl is going to be dedicated to the divine envoy, if the divine envoy comes in three days, I can't explain it, don't let the little brother embarrass me, you and the divine envoy will meet in three days to decide where this girl is going, I won't intervene in this matter anymore"
Qin Lan's dark eyes stared at the ancestral dynasty, so deep that people couldn't see the end
He Qin Lan was scheming, how could he not see that Zu Jinchao was borrowing a knife to kill people
But at this time, Qin Lan didn't say anything, just said coldly:
"You've really changed a lot over the years."
Zu Jinchao panicked for no reason, lowered his head, and didn't dare to look at Qin Lan's eyes
"Keep the door open, don't let anyone come near here, and I'll take her out of here in three days"
Qin Lan put down a sentence and left abruptly
After this incident, Zu Jinchao was irritable, and he had no intention of returning to the dinner, so he went straight back to his room to rest
Nothing was said all night
At noon the next day, Qin Lan and Zu Jinchao had lunch, and suddenly heard a commotion outside, and someone came to report:
"The master, the big boss appeared a hundred miles away from the stockade and came back immediately!"
Zu Jinchao stood up when he heard the sound, and his eyes flickered brightly and darkly, and he was uncertain
This year, he privately decided to tie Qingfeng Village and Heng Temple together, the big boss never knew that the divine envoy was coming tomorrow, and he couldn't let him spoil my good deeds at this critical juncture!
Qin Lan asked lightly, "Who is this big boss who makes you so nervous?" ”
Zu Jinchao was stunned when he heard this, and he thought about it for a while, and when he looked at Qin Lan again, he seemed to see a treasure
It just so happens that this Qin Lan is also going to trouble me, so it is better to take this opportunity to kill two birds with one stone
Thinking about this, Zu Jinchao sat down slowly, brewed a good mood, and said sadly:
"Brother Qin, you have to stand up for me this time."
Zu Jinchao's face showed a grief-stricken look for a while, and he reached out to grab Qin Lan's cuffs, Qin Lan quietly shrunk his arm and frowned:
"What's wrong, just say it"
Zu Jinchao withdrew his hand, covered his chest, and said slowly:
"Brother Qin, don't you know, since I met you, I have been cultivating day and night, and finally reached the point where I can protect myself, so I left Ganzhou City and came to the suburbs and established Qingfeng Village."
"I was originally doing the righteous thing of robbing the rich and helping the poor, but a year and a half ago, a knife came here to gamble with me, and the winning side sat on the first place in Qingfeng Village, and I lost."
Qin Lan nodded, he had heard all of this from the mouth of the mouse's eyes, and motioned to Zu Jinchao to continue with his eyes
"Which Cheng thought that the true identity of the knife man turned out to be the head of the dart who escorted the disaster relief funds of the imperial court, he embezzled the disaster relief funds, in order to avoid the responsibility of the imperial court, took our Qingfeng Village to the Heng Temple, a year ago he said that he was going to travel, gone, and handed over all the handover work between the Qingfeng Village and the Heng Temple to me to do"
Zu Jinchao continued very aggrievedly:
"Brother Qin, I know that you definitely don't have a good opinion of me in your heart, but I can't help it, and I don't want to collect people's wealth, but if I don't do that, the swordsman and the divine envoy of the Heng God Temple will not let me go!"
Zu Jinchao's words were affectionate, and what he said was touching, making it difficult for Qin Lan to distinguish the truth from the false for a while
So Qin Lan opened his mouth and asked, "How do you want me to make decisions for you?" ”
When Zu Jinchao heard that there was a play, his face suddenly became happy, and he hurriedly said:
"That swordsman will come back soon, Brother Qin, with the cooperation of you and me, we will definitely be able to subdue this person."
"After that, he was handed over to the imperial court, which is also a credit."
Qin Lan was silent, judging in his heart whether the facts in Zu Jinchao's mouth were credible
As early as on the way here, he saw the misery of the people's livelihood in Ganzhou, even if the ancestors had all kinds of hardships, it was an unchanging fact that they could harm the people
As for the mysterious swordsman, it is rumored that he has embezzled the money of the imperial court, and he is not a good person, so he can dispose of it easily this time
No matter who comes from the Heng God Temple, if they kill it, are there still fewer people in the Five God Temple's hands in his hands these days?
With a plan in his heart, Qin Lan agreed:
"Okay, I'll take him down when I see that knife man in a moment."
Zu Jinchao's joy was overflowing, and he thanked him repeatedly, looking at Zu Jinchao's hypocritical appearance, Qin Lan secretly shook his head in his heart
I was so young that I casually signed a pact with such a two-faced person
But it's too late to regret it now
Qin Lan was not worried at all about what Zu Jinchao would do to him, the reason why Zu Jinchao was calculating Qin Lan like he was now, was also to forget the most important one when he signed the pact with Qin Lan, that is-
As long as the content on the underworld contract is violated, no matter when and where Qin Lan is, he can easily deprive the ancestor of his life!
Outside Qingfeng Village,
The yellow sand covers the sky, covering the sky and the sun, and the vision is limited from ten meters away, and no one is seen
The man's muscles bulged slightly, his bare arms were an earthy bronze color, and a long knife was pinned to his waist
His face was tightly wrapped in coarse cloth, revealing only a pair of narrow eyes, with occasional flashes of palpitating coldness
However, if you look at it from a distance, the scene that falls into your eyes is a humanoid creature wrapped in strips of cloth walking slowly on the sand
It looks a little funny
But there is no way
The air was full of sand, and the man had to wrap his face tightly so that the sand would not blow all over his nose and mouth
"I haven't come back for more than a year, these must save Ganzhou"
The man's eyes flashed eagerly, and he muttered to himself
Suddenly, there was a whistling sound in the nearby air, and then a black iron rod slashed at the man's head
The man's heart was shocked, and he picked up the scabbard to block upwards and kicked out at the same time
bang
With a muffled sound, the two figures parted in the yellow sand, each leaving deep footprints on the ground
The man looked at his left foot in a daze, trembling slightly, the kick just now obviously felt like a kick, but the other party seized the opportunity to cut his ankle with a hand knife
It's a hard stubble!
The man's eyes were solemn, he was obviously about to arrive at Qingfeng Village, but he was ambushed outside the village, and the twists and turns in it were self-evident
Zu Jinchao, you really can't let go of the mustard in your heart!
The man pulled out the long knife without hesitation, and now it is useless to say more, and he can only see the truth in his hands!
I saw the man's fingers lightly tap the blade of the knife, and the blade seemed to respond to him, but it trembled slightly, and then, a loud knife groan sounded, and the man slashed in the direction of the footprints
This knife carried great might, like a dazzling white rainbow, setting off a turbulent air flow in the air, causing the surrounding yellow sand to be scattered
The person who had just sneaked up was instantly exposed to the dazzling light of the sword
But the man did not panic in the face of such an attack, and picked up a beautiful stick flower with both hands, and easily defused it
Which Cheng thought, after the man slashed this head, his figure suddenly became illusory, as ethereal as a cloud of smoke
"The wind and clouds!"
But a cold knife light slashed through, tearing through the mask on the man's face, revealing a familiar face
The man recognized the person opposite him and couldn't help but cry out
"Qin Lan!?"
Qin Lan made a movement in his hand, his eyes staring at the man tightly
The man pulled off the mask and said in surprise:
"It's me, Zhai Qingfeng!"
Qin Lan was stunned for a moment, and asked the letter suspiciously:
"Are you the big boss of Qingfeng Village? The legendary leader of the dart who robbed the imperial court of disaster relief funds? ”
Zhai Qingfeng's face was strange and said:
"I am indeed the big boss of Qingfeng Village, but I didn't rob the disaster relief funds, Brother Qin, who are you listening to?"
"Ancestor Jinchao, your second master"
Qin Lan had already put away the iron rod and replied lightly
Since it was confirmed that it was Zhai Qingfeng, there was no need for Qin Lan to be tempted
When he was in the Tianji Monument, Zhai Qingfeng was open-minded and did not take advantage of people's danger, Qin Lan believed that it was impossible for such a chivalrous person to forcibly expropriate people's wealth
Sure enough, I saw Zhai Qingfeng's face turned pale, and he said coldly:
"I came here a year and a half ago to escort the disaster relief funds of the imperial court, but I was accidentally plotted, lost the materials, and my official hat was gone, my family has been the emperor's sword guard for generations, but I didn't expect that my generation would lose face to my ancestors."
Zhai Qingfeng paused in his tone, and then said:
"I originally wanted to stay in Ganzhou to find out the real culprit who plotted against me, but found that Qingfeng Village robbed the people's wealth, so I went to this village to teach them a lesson, the ancestor of the village at that time made a life and death contract with me, I was chivalrous, won him but did not want his life, only asked him to preside over the Qingfeng Village to rob the rich and help the poor"
"Now it seems that what he did was completely contrary to what I said at the beginning!"
