Chapter 204: Names
And at the same time that Yao Wan and Concubine Ya went to the headquarters of the Mitre Auction House, Xiao Yan, who was in the small courtyard, chatted with Xiao Zhan, and also inadvertently mentioned things about Nalan Yanran.
ββ¦β¦ Yan'er, actually. β
Xiao Zhan sighed, then looked at his son with a somewhat complicated gaze, and said, "When I first arrived in the imperial capital today, I happened to meet Nalan Yanran. β
"-Happened to meet? Didn't she bump into her father on purpose? β
Of course, Xiao Yan knew it clearly, but for some reason, Xiao Yan couldn't help but ask such questions.
Xiao Zhan shook his head lightly and said, "I've thought about it too...... But I think that for a person as arrogant as her, I am afraid that there will be no scheming intention to get close to the father of her enemy...... Even the enemy's father had maintained the tenuous relationship between the two families three years ago. β
Xiao Yan pondered for a moment, and also felt that his father's words were not unreasonable.
"All in all, the little girl from the Nalan family seems to have really changed a lot, compared to three years ago, it can be said that she is like two people."
Xiao Zhan explained: "She first talked to me about the past between the two families, and then apologized to me after sending me here...... As a father, I didn't get angry with her, let alone any resentment, but after all, this is a conflict between the two of you, whether it is a family or a sect, these external identities cannot replace your essence. β
"Do you need to forgive her in the end...... Yan'er, it's all up to you, and I won't say anything more. β
Xiao Zhan's attitude of completely trusting him naturally made Xiao Yan extremely moved: "Father ......"
It's just that the moving didn't last much, and in addition to being moved, Xiao Yan gradually discovered a strange place from his father's words.
Did Nalan Yanran bring his father to his residence?
No, Nalan Yanran only knows Yan Xiao, and logically speaking, he shouldn't even know when he arrives in the imperial capital.
Thinking about it carefully, the more Xiao Yan felt that something was wrong-what the hell was going on? His whereabouts have been revealed?
Or was he under Nalan Yanran's surveillance from the beginning?
As for Concubine Ya, Xiao Yan also felt that with her sleek way of dealing with the world, she would definitely not casually bring someone who had a clear holiday with her.
Either Nalan Yanran can know him even if he doesn't need Concubine Ya and know where he lives now, or there is something between Concubine Ya and Nalan Yanran that he doesn't know.
But no matter which one it was, Xiao Yan just felt that there were more and more puzzles and questions in front of him.
Not to mention anything else, Nalan Yanran must have the biggest problem - in that case, should you test it?
While this thought popped up in his heart, Xiao Yan couldn't help but look up at the red red glow of the sunset overhead, and night was approaching.
Never mind...... Isn't there another chance to give Nalan Ji another chance to dispel the poison tomorrow? You can try to make good use of it.
After gradually having a plan in his heart, Xiao Yan was ready to go to Nalan Yanran's house tomorrow to detoxify Nalan Yanran, and then find Nalan Yanran to verify his guess.
If the first touch is just an illusion, and the second touch is just an accident, what about the third and fourth accidents?
How can this be explained?
Perhaps these can only be known from Nalan Yanran herself.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
The next day, Xiao Yan put on a mask and immediately walked into Nalan Mansion.
When the subordinates of Nalan Mansion saw that it was Mr. Yan Xiao who could cure the old man's illness and remove poison, they naturally welcomed him respectfully.
In the past few days, he has also become familiar with Nalan Mansion, even if some members of the Nalan family pass by, they will greet Xiao Yan.
Not long after he entered the courtyard of Nalan's house, Xiao Yan saw a figure walking briskly towards him.
"Mr. Rock Owl has worked hard - please."
The person who came was Nalan Yanran's father, Nalan Su, while he was talking, he didn't say any more polite words, and led Xiao Yan inside.
Under the mask, Xiao Yan's eyes were inexplicable, and he suddenly said, "I don't know where Miss Nalan is?" β
Nalan Su couldn't step on his footsteps when he heard this, and he glanced back at Xiao Yan in some amazement, feeling inexplicable.
Could it be that the rock owl really fell in love with Yanran?
Nalan Su shook his head and said, "Yan Ran is not at home today, but at the banquet held by the old family master tomorrow, Yan Ran will be in ...... As the benefactor of my Nalan family, Mr. Yan Xiao will also be rewarded for this banquet. β
"Hey, it's nothing, I just happened to see Miss Nalan wasn't there, so I was curious, just ask, please don't take it to heart."
Xiao Yan smiled, just as a polite.
It's just that whether Nalan Su really took Xiao Yan's words as a polite thing is hard to say.
In Nalan Ji's room, Nalan Ji was already waiting.
"Today, we can almost completely eliminate the poison in your body."
Before starting, Xiao Yan said, and then subconsciously glanced at Nalan Su, Nalan Su also knew very well that Xiao Yan didn't like someone to disturb him, so he took the initiative to close the door and wait outside the door.
"Hehe, I said who did the little brother of the rock owl learn from? How can you have such a superb fire control technique? β
When Xiao Yan was detoxifying Nalan Ji, this old man couldn't be idle at all after all, and couldn't help but speak.
After all, as a patient whose body would be in direct contact with Xiao Yan's alien fire, Nalan Jian could very clearly feel the alien fire swimming in his body, but he did not hurt his meridians.
What kind of terrifying soul control ability is required to possess this fire control technique?
Nalan Ji was secretly frightened, even if he had already guessed and mentally prepared, but only when he really came into contact with him, people would feel shocked.
"The teacher is just an idler in the mountains, and I'm just a mediocre person, not a genius."
Xiao Yan subconsciously replied, his tone was quite serious, but Nalan Yan couldn't help but shake his head when he heard Xiao Yan's words.
He's not a genius?
If he is not a genius, I am afraid that there are few geniuses in the world.
However, politeness is politeness, Xiao Yan's movements are also extremely fast, and the last time to remove the poison is not more than a stick of incense, and it is over.
"Okay, the poison on your body has been completely removed."
Xiao Yan withdrew his strange fire and said.
"That's the caseβhahahaha! Okay, then thank you little brother Rock Owl. β
"It's just that everyone takes what they need, and it's not polite."
While the two were chatting, Nalan Ji clapped his hands, and then several maids came up, holding a treasure box specially used to maintain rare medicinal materials, and appeared in front of Xiao Yan.
"This is the medicinal herb that the Nalan family promised to the little brother of the rock owl before."
"Hmm."
Xiao Yan was not polite, he just took what he needed, so naturally he couldn't talk about any politeness, and with a move of his hand, the boxes turned into streamers and flew into Xiao Yan's ring.
Xiao Yan chatted with them for a while, and Nalan Ji and Nalan Su went out with Xiao Yan.
"Thank you little brother Yanxiao for helping my Nalan family this time, if you need anything in the future, just come to the Nalan family."
"The head of the Nalan family is polite, and being able to cure the head of the Nalan family so quickly is not entirely my own credit."
On the way to leave, Xiao Yan, who was chatting, suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help but suddenly.
"Oh? What does Little Brother Rock Owl mean ......? β
"The nature of the poison in the main body of the Nalan family is not too serious, it is only integrated into the flesh and blood, but it also has the fighting spirit of the Nalan family master as a suppression."
"And what's more important is actually another medicinal property that suppresses the poison for a long time-"
Xiao Yan pondered for a moment and asked, "Out of curiosity, I can't help but want to say moreβI don't know where this medicinal property comes from?" β
Xiao Yan's words undoubtedly made Nalan Su and Nalan Ji a little unexpected, so the two couldn't help but glance at each other.
"Ho...... Tell the truth. β
In the end, it was Nalan Su who opened his mouth and said: "At this time, it has to start from more than two years ago, not long after his old man was poisoned. β
"The poison is very fast and abnormal, even if it is suppressed by the fighting spirit of my Dou King, it is only getting worse day by day, and in the end, I can only stay in bed all day long."
Nalan snorted in displeasure.
Nalan Su then continued: "For this reason, the Nalan family recruited alchemists, and even the honorary elder of the Yunlan Sect, Danwang Guhe, was invited, but he didn't expect that even Guhe would be helpless with the poison. β
"In the end, it can be regarded as a coincidence, we are fortunate to have a mysterious powerhouse famous in the Northwest Continent, she traveled here, and took a look out of interest."
"As a result, the mysterious powerhouse also said that she needed to invite another master, but she also left an elixir for suppressing the branding, and it was thanks to this elixir that my father had nothing to do with the branding in the past two years, and even the same as ordinary people."
Nalan Su sighed and said, "In this way, that mysterious powerhouse is only afraid that he already has the ability to heal his father, but for some reason, he has never been willing to make a moveβhow can an alchemist who can significantly suppress the branding poison with just a shot of the elixir be helpless against the branding poison." β
"Okay, since people are willing to help us, it's already a great kindness, and I haven't been in bed in the past two years to thank them a thousand times."
Nalan Ji shook his head.
Nalan Su and Nalan Ji's words couldn't help but make Xiao Yan more and more strange.
ββ¦β¦ I don't know the name of that mysterious powerhouse? β
"This ......"
Nalan Su and Nalan Su glanced at each other, and then Nalan Wei said: "Little brother Yanxiao, that strong man has a strange temperament, and he also said that her name is not allowed to be circulated, and you are kind to the old man, so it is not easy to hide it from you, I just hope that you alone can know, and you must not spread it, and I hope that the little brother understands." β
Xiao Yan nodded: "That's nature, and the rock owl is tight-lipped like a bottle." β
"Hmm...... That mysterious powerhouse is the medicine fairy who has been famous in the countries of the Northwest Continent in recent years. β
"-What?"
