Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Knife Hunting Mission Is Complete [Chapter 5]
Last night, Li Tianxin shot with the Dahua Divine Knife and took advantage of the chaos to save the ghost thirteen.
Although Jiang Ran didn't understand why he suddenly intervened.
But the little old man got out and left, and Tong Wanli was led away by himself.
He shouldn't be in any danger.
But if it's really bad luck to memorize the words, and he is bumped into by the little old man again, then he can only blame himself for being nosy.
As for what he did it for......
I'll have to wait for him to come back.
Leaning on the handrail of the hallway, his gaze falling at random.
Just at the door of the inn, a man came in.
This person was dressed in white, his body was as cold as ice, and he was holding a long sword in his hand.
"Is that the loser of the Danyang Sword Sect?"
After all, she was someone she had just met not long ago, and Jiang Ran naturally recognized her at a glance:
"It's so cold......"
That night was a quick glance, and now goodbye, her temperament is as cold as her sword, she is not like Li Tianxin, pretending to be cold and arrogant.
Her coldness is not ice, it is a sword, and the edge of the cold is exposed.
Xu is Jiang Ran's eyes were a little scorching, but the woman noticed it, and raised her head to meet Jiang Ran's eyes.
At this moment, her face showed a little change, and she obviously recognized Jiang Ran, and then she found a table and sat down as if nothing had happened.
The little second brother hurriedly stepped forward and asked about the needs.
Jiang Ran didn't continue to pay attention.
The door creaked behind him, and Ye Jingshuang pushed the door out:
"Childe, I've been waiting for a long time."
Jiang Ran glanced at her and smiled slightly: "It's okay...... By the way, do you know the Danyang Sword Sect? ”
"Naturally, I know that the Danyang Sword Sect and my Liuyun Sword Sect are both the Five Great Sword Sects of the Golden Cicada, and our two factions have always been good friends, so they are familiar with each other."
Ye Jingshuang glanced at Jiang Ran strangely:
"Why would Childe ask that?"
Jiang Ran motioned for her to come and let her follow her gaze.
"Huh?"
Ye Jingshuang was stunned for a moment, and blurted out: "Shi Miao!?" ”
This sound was louder than Jiang Ran expected, and the woman in white who was sitting there waiting for Xiao Er's dish was naturally attracted by this voice.
Suddenly raised his head and looked at each other, Jiang Ran found that the cold temperament on the woman in white suddenly disappeared the moment she saw Ye Jingshuang.
Her eyes widened:
"Senior Sister Ye?"
After finishing speaking, he didn't care about walking down the stairs, and after stepping a little, the whole person jumped up and went directly to the second floor.
grabbed Ye Jingshuang's hand:
"Senior Sister Ye...... How did you end up here? ”
"It's a long story."
Ye Jingshuang carefully looked at the woman in white and smiled lightly:
"It's been a long time, it's been three years since the last Five Factions Sword Meeting, right?"
"Yes."
Shi Miao nodded, and his gaze gradually moved away from Ye Jingshuang's body and fell on Jiang Ran's body.
The bright gaze in her eyes like spring instantly became cold:
"Senior Sister Ye...... Who is he? ”
Ye Jingshuang glanced up at Jiang Ran and said with a smile:
"This is Jiang Gongzi, my benefactor."
"Benefactor?"
Shi Miao was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Jiang Ran's eyes, the cold meaning subsided a little, and he groaned slightly, then clenched his fists and said:
"I've seen a benefactor."
“……”
Jiang Ran didn't expect this to be the case.
Should we lament that the rivers and lakes are too small, or that there are too many coincidences?
But this cold woman turned out to be called Shi Miao...... It doesn't sound like her temperament.
He glanced at Shi Miao and shook his head slightly:
"What Miss Ye said is too serious, she is not a benefactor, and the girl doesn't have to be so polite......
"Since we all know each other, why don't we eat together?"
Shi Miao immediately looked at Ye Jingshuang.
Seeing her nodding in agreement, she was overjoyed, but when her gaze was removed from Ye Jingshuang's face, she once again returned to her cold appearance.
Jiang Ran was a little puzzled, did this girl learn to change her face?
How can the emotional transformation be so fast and without any traces of cohesion?
"Jiang Gongzi, you go down with Shi Miao first.
"I'll call Uncle Tong and them."
Ye Jingshuang opened his mouth at this time.
Jiang Ran instructed:
"Your uncle has to keep someone on his side, too."
"Yes."
Ye Jingshuang nodded, indicating that he understood.
Jiang Ran went downstairs by himself.
Find a place to sit down and ask the little second brother for some food and drink.
Immediately followed by a flash, Miao was already sitting opposite him, looking at him coldly.
Jiang Ran's brows furrowed slightly:
"What do you think I'm doing?"
"Senior Sister Ye never lies, she said that you are her benefactor, then you must be kind to her.
"But she is a high-ranking disciple of the Liuyun Sword Sect, how can she easily give people a chance to show grace?
"What the hell is going on?"
Shi Miao stared at Jiang Ran, wanting to find an explanation.
Jiang Ran's expression was also a little strange and looked at Shi Miao:
"You don't know?"
"I ...... Why would you know? ”
Shi Miao's face was not confused, and the coldness was deeper.
Jiang Ran nodded thoughtfully, and asked again:
"Do you have a grudge against the people of Zuo Daozhuang?"
"Nope."
Shi Miao shook his head:
"The side door is left, and the secret assembly must have a plan.
"When you meet, you can't ignore it, and if you hold a sword, you should wipe out the injustice in the world."
Jiang Ran suddenly, he thought he was a cold lord who didn't care about the world and only wanted pleasure, but he didn't expect it to be a woman.
I wanted to say something, but people just gathered together and didn't do anything, so why bother to be so ruthless?
But after thinking about it, he didn't know Zuo Daozhuang or Shi Miao, so he couldn't help but be a little self-righteous when he said this.
So he simply stopped.
Then the two of them fell into a cold spot.
Jiang Ran looked out of 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, until there was a faint sword intent on Shi Miao's body, and then he turned back in surprise:
"After watching it for a long time, you have a murderous intent?"
“…… You haven't answered my question yet. ”
Shi Miao was stunned, obviously his patience had been exhausted to the extreme.
"Something happened to the Red Maple Leaf family, and when she was chased and killed, I saved her."
Jiang Ran lifted the teapot and poured a cup of tea:
"You're here because the Tao is nameless?"
"After you're gone, he'll have to turn to me for help."
When Shi Miao said this, the breath on his body was even colder:
"What happened to the Ye family?"
"You really don't know......"
Jiang Ran was silent for a moment and shook his head:
"You might as well ask Miss Ye about this."
“…… Good. ”
After these words, the two of them were speechless again, and began to fall into a longer silence.
In the end, it was Ye Jingshuang who came down from upstairs to break the silence.
Behind her is also followed by Mingyue, Tong Wanli.
I didn't see Zhou Wang and Tong Yan, Tong Yan's injuries were not light, and he might not be able to get up today, so Zhou Wang should have gone to guard Liu Wenshan.
Mingyue's face was cautious and cautious.
After all, when I woke up, there was a cousin I had never met before, and a senior I didn't know.
Even if Ye Jingshuang reported her identity, she didn't dare to believe it easily.
It wasn't until she went downstairs and saw Jiang Ran that she was obviously relaxed.
A few steps came to Jiang Ran's side:
"Eun Gong ......"
He spoke softly and looked at Ye Jingshuang at the same time.
There is a strong sense of exploration in his eyes.
Jiang Ran introduced her.
He said that it was not the same thing to tell Ye Jingshuang, and after listening to it, Mingyue suddenly realized:
"It turned out to be really my cousin...... Yue'er was ignorant, so she was still suspicious of her cousin, and asked her cousin not to blame. ”
"I don't blame you."
Ye Jingshuang looked at Mingyue, although she couldn't say that she could empathize with what happened to her, she could also understand it.
took his cousin's hand and whispered:
"Don't worry, no one will bully you in the future."
Mingyue shook her head:
"It's okay to bully me, it's just that Daddy ......"
"Your dad has been rescued."
Jiang Ran interjected at this time and said:
"It's just that he's injured and he's resting in his room. After you've finished eating, go see him. ”
"Huh!?"
Mingyue looked back at Jiang Ran, did she really not expect that Jiang Ran was invited to make a move yesterday, and after this night, her father had already returned?
Surprised and delighted for a while:
"Thank you so much, thank you so much!"
As he spoke, he wanted to kowtow to Jiang Ran again.
Jiang Ran had no choice but to take the trouble to stop her, and glanced at Ye Jingshuang again.
Ye Jingshuang sighed and helped her up:
"That's it, it's really just that there are too many lice and no itching, and if there are too many debts, you and my sister owe him too much.
"Just listen to the son, eat first, and after eating, you go up to see your uncle."
"En......"
Hearing Ye Jingshuang say this, Mingyue was a little curious about the relationship between Jiang Ran and Ye Jingshuang.
But this will obviously not be the time to ask more.
Then he sat down and waited for dinner.
Jiang Ran was looking at his system interface in a daze at this time.
This time, the task of catching the knife was completed after telling Mingyue.
[Knife Catching Mission: Rescue Liu Wenshan! ] 】
[Mission Progress: Completed!] 】
[Reward: 'Jiaowei Qin Clue', please wait patiently......]
Jiang Ran looked at this task reward and fell into confusion.
Clues to the Jiaowei Qin......
This reward seems to be tied to this one.
But what the hell is it to be patient?
Is the system a reality? Does this reward have to be given to you through someone else?
Jiang Ran suddenly felt that this knife-catching task seemed to be a bit of a pitfall.
Not only that, but he took another look at his lifespan.
As a result, he carefully studied it for a long time, pulled his fingers and counted for a while, and finally came to a conclusion!
His lifespan...... One more day!
One day!?
Jiang Ran could hardly believe his eyes.
Judging from the current situation, the reward given to itself by the system for the first time is indeed blessed.
Therefore, a year's lifespan was obtained, as well as the internal force of a jiazi.
But after that, even if it is not good, it is impossible to only have a one-day reward!
On this day, what's the count?
"Jiang Shaoxia? Jiang Shaoxia? ”
Tong Wanli's voice came into his ears, making Jiang Ran come back to his senses from this depressed mood.
Glancing up at him:
"What do you command?"
"Nothing."
Tong Wanli smiled slightly:
"I'll go out to buy medicine later, Jiang Shaoxia has other things I need, I can bring them back."
"Okay."
Jiang Ran nodded:
"I really need some gadgets, I'll write them down later, and I'll buy some for me."
"Good, little thing."
Tong Wanli laughed, and agreed very happily, but looked at Jiang Ran again, and said in a low voice:
"If Shaoxia has time, can you help me see what I can't do later?
"I know he offended Shaoxia yesterday, and I ask Shaoxia not to be surprised."
Jiang Ran suddenly shook his head:
"Ling Gongzi is only afraid that there is a misunderstanding with me, but it is all a trivial matter, and Senior Tong can rest assured."
"That's good, that's good."
Tong Wanli nodded again and again, and seemed to be a lot more steady.
After that, there was nothing more than casual chatter while eating.
On the entire table, only two people did not speak.
One is the bright moon who is bored and dry, and the other is as cold as frost, just engrave the words 'don't get close to the living' on the door of his head.
After waiting for dinner, Jiang Ran found the four treasures of the study, wrote some things and handed them to Tong Wanli.
Tong Wanli said yes and walked out of the inn.
Jiang Ran and his entourage returned upstairs and asked Zhou Wang to go down for dinner.
Mingyue couldn't help but redden when she saw her father lying there unconscious.
Thankfully, at least people are still alive.
Jiang Ran didn't bother her, so she quietly walked out of the door, first went back to her room, and when she went out again, she already had an extra burden in her hand.
It's Xu Hongyi's head.
He carried the head and walked on the streets of Benma County, and after a while, he came to a place.
When I looked up, I saw the county government of Benma County.
The two officials in front of the county yamen were on both sides of the sub-station under the scorching sun, and when they saw Jiang Ran coming, they immediately stopped them:
"Who? How can the county government intrude? ”
Jiang Ran rummaged through his arms and found a token:
"Do you know this?"
You look at me, I look at you, two officials, each confused.
Jiang Ran sighed:
"Do me a favor, show this token to the county magistrate, don't make a mistake."
When the official heard Jiang Ran say this, he glanced at the token in his hand again, and after groaning slightly, he let Jiang Ran wait here, and turned around and entered the county office.
Jiang Ran didn't care, and stood on the side of the street with his baggage.
Pedestrians came and went on the street, but no one could have imagined that the young swordsman standing on the side of the street was carrying a human head in his hand.
After waiting for a short time, I saw the official hurriedly beating the county yakin and walking out.
After seeing Jiang Ran, he trotted all the way to him, handed over the knife capture order with both hands, and his face was full of smiles:
"Lord Prefectural, please come in, I'll show you the way, please!"
"Thank you."
Jiang Ran nodded, and his heart was relieved.
The reason why he came here was also because of this knife catcher.
Master Liu once said before that this knife capture order has the privilege of giving a reward of silver first, and then verifying the true body.
Otherwise, an old criminal like Xu Hongyi, who has been involved for many years, is afraid that there may not be any notice of his sea fishing in this county office.
Now that this county order knows this knife arrest order, things can be easily handled.
As the official entered the county office, he came to a hall in a moment.
A middle-aged man had been waiting for a long time, and only then did he turn around when he heard the sound of footsteps.
After seeing Jiang Ran, he smiled and clenched his fists with both hands:
"This official has been around all year round, and I have seen young heroes."
