Chapter 225: Not Qualified

What happened in the Purple Moon Mountain Villa was as if it had grown wings, and in the blink of an eye, it traveled all over the East County Mansion.

All of a sudden, the rivers and lakes shook!

Since the Demon Sect was destroyed a hundred years ago, the Eighteen Heavenly Demon Records have appeared in the rivers and lakes from time to time.

But there are few people who can make such a huge movement.

Remnant Yang Gate not only inherited a magic skill, but also acted arrogantly, killing fellow people in the rivers and lakes one after another.

This has really caused public outrage.

Therefore, it was not only Duguxiong and Lin Wanyi who wrote a letter to invite, but also the masters who were mobilized came towards the Purple Moon Mountain Villa.

There were also many people who heard the wind and came to the door on their own.

So much so that in just a few days, the Purple Moon Mountain Villa was already overcrowded.

It's just what needs to be done, and it doesn't stop.

Meng Huan died after all, he should be funeral, the entire Purple Moon Villa was hung with white silk, and the disciples of the family were wrapped in linen, and the children and nephews were also dressed in linen and filial piety.

And the period of public planning of major events was set on the day of Meng Huan's first seventh.

When the day came, early in the morning, Jiang Ran suddenly took the Jingtan monk to visit Mrs. Meng.

……

……

The small courtyard is quiet and elegant.

Outside the courtyard, Jiang Ran casually glanced around:

"It turns out that the lady and the owner of the village have always lived in separate courtyards."

Hearing this, the Jingtan monk glanced at Jiang Ran.

Looking up at the courtyard again, his eyes were a little complicated.

At this time, a maid came to report:

"Jiang Daxia, Madame is invited."

They came to visit early in the morning, so naturally they couldn't go in directly, so they had to let the maid go in and report.

At this time, when he got a response, Jiang Ran glanced at the Jingtan monk with a smile:

"How is the layman feeling?"

“……”

The Jingtan monk didn't say a word, saying that he didn't want to speak.

Jiang Ran was even happier when he saw this, and smiled at the maid:

"Please ask my sister to lead the way."

The maid's face turned red.

looked up at Jiang Ran and saw Jiang Ran winking at her.

In an instant, it was originally just two temples red, but this time it was completely red to the root of the ears, and there was a cloud of clouds on the neck.

"Good...... Good ......"

The maid responded in a panic, and then hurriedly turned around and walked towards the courtyard.

Her speed was much faster than usual, as if some beast was chasing her behind her.

Jiang Ran hurriedly greeted:

"Sister walks slowly, I can't keep up."

“…… Jiang Shaoxia. ”

Jingtan monks can't stand it anymore, you are a dignified master of the rivers and lakes, martial arts are world-famous, you can't keep up with a maid?

"It's okay, it's okay."

Jiang Ran smiled: "Tease her." ”

“……”

What are you teasing her for!?

The Jingtan monk vomited blood in his heart.

However, Jiang Ran's performance was quite normal next.

He followed the maid into the courtyard.

There is a small pavilion in the small courtyard, and on one side is a pond rockery, and goldfish are raised in the water.

Mrs. Meng stood in front of this small pavilion at this time, waiting quietly.

She looked a little tired, dressed in linen and filial piety, her face was pale, and her eyes were full of sadness.

Looking up at Jiang Ran, his gaze was just a pause, and then he turned to the Jingtan monk.

Looking at each other, the eyes of the Jingtan monks were even more complicated.

It was Mrs. Meng who was the first to stagger her eyes, and after she moved away slightly, she said softly:

"How could Jiang Daxia come to visit early in the morning?"

"Madame, where are you talking about this? What would it look like if I came late at night? ”

Jiang Ran stepped forward, looked at Mrs. Meng and sighed:

"Madame, I'm afraid I'm just having a hard time these days."

When she heard his first sentence, Mrs. Meng should have been angry, after all, even if there was no intention of teasing, but in her words, there were three points of banter.

But when she heard the latter words, she was a little shocked.

I can only sigh softly:

"The owner of the village is killed, and I, the surviving person, are naturally sad in my heart......

"Jiang Daxia, sit down."

"Madame, please."

Jiang Ran stretched out his arm to guide him, and glanced at the Jingtan monk again:

"Sit down, too."

Seeing this, Mrs. Meng pondered for a while, and then said to the left and right:

"You go down first."

The left and right maids glanced at each other, whispered yes, and then turned around and dispersed.

In the pavilion, in the blink of an eye, only Jiang Ran, Mrs. Meng and Jingtan monks remained.

At this time, the Jingtan monk dared to speak:

"You...... How have you been doing all these years? ”

When Mrs. Meng heard these words, her expression changed slightly.

After a long time, she slowly said one word:

"Okay."

This word, like a mountain, can overwhelm people's hearts.

The eyes of the Jingtan monk turned red all of a sudden.

He bowed his head slightly, smiling as if self-deprecatingly.

Then he looked up and said:

"Earlier, you wrote to me, do you remember?"

“…… Remember. ”

Mrs. Meng said: "I am seriously ill and my days are numbered. When I heard that Jiaowei was in the world, I wanted to see it. I should have counted on Meng Huan for this matter...... It's just, it's just ......"

"But he doesn't want to?"

Jiang Ran helped her finish.

Mrs. Meng nodded:

"Purple Moon Villa is naturally the way to establish the world with Purple Moon Villa.

"Although there are many people on this river and lake who like to join in the fun, they will run wherever there is something.

"But there are also people who know how to protect themselves......

"Actually, strictly speaking, I'm the former.

"Jiang Daxia may not know that my mentor is Xiao Wumei, the green sword among the Azure Twin Swords.

"I have been practicing swords since I was a child, and when I was young, I walked the rivers and lakes with my senior brother, punishing evil and promoting good."

"Yes."

Jiang Ran said: "I know that Madame's senior brother is Heavenly Dragon Divine Sword Gu Xizhi. ”

"Jiang Daxia has seen my senior brother?"

Mrs. Meng seemed a little surprised.

Jiang Ran frowned:

"In this way, Madame still doesn't know that the ancient predecessors are now in the Purple Moon Mountain Villa."

"What?"

Mrs. Meng suddenly looked at the Jingtan monk.

The Jingtan monk nodded slightly:

"He was injured and couldn't see anyone. I've been recuperating in the small yard all the time......"

"Wounded......"

Mrs. Meng's eyes were stunned:

"How could it get hurt? Yes, he has always been soft-hearted, even in the face of heinous criminals, as long as the other party sincerely repents, he is willing to give a chance.

"He must have been deceived again, that's why he ...... That's when I got hurt......

"He must have been badly wounded, otherwise he wouldn't have stopped coming to see me.

He ...... How is he? ”

Looking up again, Mrs. Meng's eyes were full of tears.

Jiang Ran secretly admired in his heart, and then smiled:

"Madame, don't worry too much, I also have a little bit of Qi Huang's technique in the next, the injuries of the ancient predecessors need to be recuperated more, but there is no big problem, but for a while, I can't get up and go to the ground."

"It's no big deal, then ...... That's good. ”

When Mrs. Meng said this, she couldn't help but glance at the Jingtan monk again.

Turning his head slightly, he sighed.

The Jingtan monks were also silent.

The two sides were speechless, Jiang Ran looked at this and that, so he had to untie a box behind him and put it on the stone table in the pavilion.

"Mrs. Meng...... Under the Heavenly Dragon Sword Gu Xizhi, Yaxin Xiaozhu Jingtan Lay Trust, this Jiaowei Qin will be borrowed from you to watch for a few days. ”

"Huh?"

Mrs. Meng, who was originally silent, seemed to be stunned when she heard this.

She looked at Jiang Ran blankly, and then at Jiao Wei in front of her.

"Scorched Tail? Isn't it already lost? ”

"I didn't lose it, on the sunset flat, it's just a little trick. Use this technique of concealing the sky and crossing the sea, so that this Jiaowei can stay in my hands steadily.

"Just before this, I promised the Jingtan monks and the ancient seniors to lend Jiaowei to Madame.

"So our group came to this Purple Moon Mountain Villa as a guest.

"Speaking of which...... This matter does not seem to be as secret as I imagined, and there is no impermeable wall under this world.

"On the night of Master Meng's accident, someone sneaked into my room and wanted to steal it.

Unfortunately, I didn't fall asleep and followed the man.

"Listening to them, it seems that there is a way to unravel the secret of this scorched tail...... I don't know if it's true or not.

"When I tried to listen carefully, they found out."

Jiang Ran sighed: "It's a pity, I'm probably the person closest to the truth of Jiaowei in the past thousand years." What a shame......"

"There is such a thing!"

Mrs. Meng's face was full of shock.

The Jingtan monk glanced at Jiang Ran and said in a deep voice:

"The night that the Remnant Yang Gate broke into the Purple Moon Villa, that night, someone wanted to steal your Jiaowei.

"Could it be a coincidence?"

"We'll talk about that later."

Jiang Ran waved his hand:

"I am here today for nothing else, just to fulfill the promise of the day.

"This scorched tail will be given to Madame for enjoyment, but Madame must remember that it should not be played.

"The scorched tail is dangerous, and anyone who carelessly plays it will die.

"Well, as for the deadline......

"Tomorrow, Mrs. Tomorrow will return it to me, I just hope that Mrs. will not blame me for being stingy, I am only willing to borrow one day, I don't know what Mrs. wants?"

"That's good, of course."

Mrs. Meng hurriedly said: "Jiaowei is a twelve-day skill inherited for thousands of years, and ordinary people cherish it, and they easily refuse to show it. Jiang Daxia is willing to keep his promise and lend me this Jiaowei for a whole day, and I am already grateful and grateful. Where can you dislike having less time......"

"It's good if Madame doesn't dislike it."

Jiang Ran stood up: "At today's conference, Madame has to attend as a surviving person. Jiang still has to prepare some things, so he won't bother his wife and say goodbye......"

After he finished speaking, he glanced at the Jingtan monk again:

"Would you like to talk again?"

“……”

The Jingtan monk looked at Jiang Ran with a dark face.

You're gone, what am I doing here?

"If you don't talk, you don't talk, I'm not thinking...... Forget it, let's go. ”

After he finished speaking, he turned and walked out.

Mrs. Meng hurriedly beckoned the maid to come over to see off the guests.

It was still the little girl who had been teased by Jiang Ran before, and she trotted all the way behind Jiang Ran and Jingtan Jushi.

Until she was discharged from the hospital, Jiang Ran still smiled at her:

"Don't know my sister's name yet?"

"Jiang Daxia, don't make a joke about the weeds......"

The little girl didn't dare to raise Jiang Ran's head.

Jingtan monk really couldn't stand it anymore, and flicked his sleeves:

"The old man went back first."

"Walk slowly, I'll talk to her again."

Jiang Ran didn't raise his head.

The Jingtan monk was stunned, he never expected that Jiang Ran would be so shameless.

It was also aggressive for a while, but he was complicated today, and he didn't want to dwell on it, so he snorted and turned away.

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Ran and the maid were left in front of the courtyard gate.

Jiang Ran's gaze withdrew from behind the Jingtan monk, and then he looked up at the little girl with a blushing face:

"Sister, come over with your ear, I'll tell you a few thoughtful words......"

……

……

Dongjun Mansion.

Today is a sunny sky and the sun is shining.

In the study, Yin Zhao Riming, the head of the East County Government, was bowing his head to deal with government affairs.

He has a rigorous attitude.

When I was done with the matter at hand, I stretched my back and suddenly remembered something.

When I looked up, I saw a young man with a sallow face not far away, sitting there with a knife in his arms, not moving, as if he had been carved in stone with an axe.

"Strong."

Zhao Riming spoke softly.

"Do you have something to say?"

Li Tianxin glanced back, and his voice was calm.

Zhao Riming shook his head lightly:

"Just to say, you don't have to sit here all the time."

"Entrusted by men, loyal to people."

Li Tianxin pursed his lips:

"Since he asked me to protect you, then I should naturally protect you closely, and I can't be slack."

"Hey......"

Zhao Riming was speechless for a while.

A few days ago, this person named Li Tianxin suddenly held a knife arrest order, and Tian Xiwen's handwritten letter, saying that he suspected that someone would be unfavorable to him in the near future.

However, the big event on the side of Purple Moon Mountain Villa was imminent, and he didn't dare to leave the hands of people easily.

Therefore, this person can only be entrusted to come and protect it.

There are both knife arrest orders and Tian Xiwen's letters.

Zhao Riming naturally didn't doubt Li Tianxin's origin, but he just ...... In the past few days, this strong man has been really meticulous, ready to fight, and always watched.

somewhat made Zhao Riming a little uncomfortable.

Fortunately, people have their own sense of proportion, so they reluctantly accept it.

It's just that he feels that this person seems to be sleepless, it's really hard, he admires this person's trustworthiness, and his heart naturally can't bear it, so he always wants to let him rest.

But he refused to listen.

I had to sigh and say:

"Now that there is nothing going on in the house, maybe everything is too much to think about.

"Although the crime of the Remnant Yang Gate is unforgivable, it may not dare to dare to assassinate the official in the sky.

"You've been so sleepless to protect me, and I'm really sorry to go.

"Moreover, if you take 10,000 steps back, even if they really dare to come, they are still waiting for work, you haven't had a good rest for many days, and how much martial arts can you exert?

"According to the official, you should go and rest for a while, if there is really something, the official will find someone to call you."

Li Tianxin smiled:

"Thank you Lord Yin for your concern, but if something really happens, I'm afraid that my lord won't have a chance to find me."

"This ......"

Zhao Riming was silent for a while.

He is a civil official through and through, and he has no knowledge of martial arts.

This is different from Yin Guochong, the capital of Cangzhou at that time.

Guo Chong was born in the military, and the matter of Feiyunzhai at that time had aroused the suspicion of the imperial court, so he went to be the governor of the palace.

At the end of the day, it's just a stopgap measure.

Therefore, after the incident of Feiyunzhai ended, Guo Chong was transferred away and replaced by a civil official who was in charge of the government.

If there is really a master who assassinates Zhao Riming, it is estimated that Zhao Riming will really not be able to do anything except shout 'ah'.

"That is ......"

Zhao Riming was about to continue talking.

I saw Li Tianxin suddenly raise his head, his eyes changed color, and the next moment, a figure suddenly burst into the room.

Before Zhao Riming could react, what happened.

I saw a flash of the knife, followed by two dings, and then a thud.

Zhao Riming only had time to make a gesture of raising his head at this time.

I saw that Li Tianxin had already grabbed the neck of a man in black with one hand and pressed it against the wall.

seemed to want to ask something, but without waiting for Li Tianxin to speak, he saw that the man in black suddenly opened his mouth, and the black scarf blocking the door shook, Li Tianxin tilted his head, Zhao Riming only felt as if a silver light flashed, but he couldn't see what it was.

Li Tianxin ripped off his black scarf at this time, and saw that the black-clothed man had no tongue in his mouth, but installed a strange mechanism, which looked shocking.

"Dead?"

Li Tianxin frowned slightly, followed by a flash of the knife, and a human head fell to the ground.

At the same time, there were exclamations everywhere in the palace.

Zhao Riming's expression sank:

"How daring! How dare you come! Strong, come out with me! ”

Li Tianxin was stunned:

"What are you doing out there?"

"In broad daylight, in the midst of the bright and prosperous world, this official, as the governor of the Eastern County Government, has an enemy to kill, how can he sit in the hall and let his subordinates be wantonly slaughtered?

"Let this night be done in every way, why should this official be afraid!?"

Zhao Riming straightened his clothes, and then looked at Li Tianxin:

"What's more, the strong man is strong in martial arts, where are you afraid of him?"

Li Tianxin looked at Zhao Riming, and only nodded deeply after a long time:

"Good! My lord is reasonable, where are you and I afraid of him?

"Let's get out!"

Zhao Riming nodded deeply, and walked towards the outside of the study.

Pushed open the door and strode into the courtyard.

After a certain step, he spoke:

"Where is Xiaoxiao, the official Zhao Riming is here, and he still doesn't show up?"

The sound of his voice was accompanied by a tinkling sound.

This is because the moment he walked out of the courtyard, there were hidden weapons flying around him.

was intercepted by Li Tianxin with a single knife.

And Zhao Riming was at this moment, his back was not bent, his eyes were not flinching, his voice was loud, and he was full of energy!

"Good, good, good!"

A voice suddenly rose from one side of the wall.

One after another, men in black appeared around.

Some of these people carried a human head in their hands, and some dragged a surviving servant.

Eyes from all directions were cast towards Zhao Riming, and a man in black whispered:

"I have long heard of the name of Zhao Riming of the Dongjun Mansion, and today I saw that it was really extraordinary, and he was indeed an iron-clad man.

"Seeing you like this, this seat is a little unbearable to kill you, so this seat will give you a chance, you kneel, enter my remnant yang gate, do my way, and be my official.

"I can spare your life!"

"What a remnant sun...... gate"

Li Tianxin took a step forward: "You guys, haven't you ever put the next in your eyes?" ”

"Li Tianxin?"

The man in black at the head glanced at him and shook his head slightly:

"If Jiang Ran is here, I am still afraid of him, you ...... Not qualified. ”
