Chapter 81 - Cutting the Water with a Knife
Nanhu Lane Mengfu.
Geng Huyuan threw the Pinhua Daoist on the chair in the hall, and then went out of the courtyard and carried the half-dead knife man outside into the courtyard.
Li Haoran sat on the chair, looking lacking in interest.
Pinhua Daoist smiled flatteringly at Li Haoran and said, "Senior, when will you let me go?"
Li Haoran glared at him and scolded, "What's the matter?
Pinhua Daoren shrunk his neck and said nervously: "Are the seniors going back on their word?"
"Fart. Li Haoran scolded and said disdainfully: "Is Lao Tzu that kind of person? You can leave if you want to, and Lao Tzu won't take care of you." With the way you look now, I'm afraid you'll be slaughtered before you leave the city, so let's think about your dog's life. ”
Pinhua Daoren looked stunned, the corners of his eyes were a little more frightened, and he said haha: "Then the junior will bother the seniors for a few days and beg the seniors to take them in." ”
Li Haoran snorted and scolded: "Aren't you leaving? The gate is there, hurry up." ”
Pinhuadao people smiled, not knowing how to answer, and looked a little lonely.
Geng Huyuan, who was standing on the side, played a round for him, and said with a smile: "Brother Li, since he is injured, let him stay for a few more days, and it is not too late to leave after the injury is healed." ”
Li Haoran glanced at Pinhua Daoren, and said in a stiff tone: "What can you do if you raise it well? It's just a waste person, and there is no hope in this life." ”
Pinhua Daoist showed a bitter smile and said in a low voice: "It's all my own fault, and I'm just asking for my own hardships." ”
Li Haoran's heart was tugged at by that weird smile, his tone slowed down slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Don't be discouraged, there are many miracle elixirs in this world, as long as you don't give up, there is always hope." ”
Pinhua Dao people glanced at Li Haoran very gratefully, and said in a choked voice: "Thank you for the comfort of the seniors, the juniors are grateful." No matter what happens in the future, my predecessors are my benefactors. ”
Before the words were finished, there were two more autumn waters in the eye-catching peach blossom eyes.
Li Haoran sighed and said softly: "Don't you know how to prepare poisons? You must also know how to dispense medicines, do you know the potions that can cure the muscles and veins?"
Pinhua Daoist shook his head and said, "Those rare medicinal materials only exist in legends, and even if they do, they will be collected by the Daoist royal family, and ordinary people like us can't see them." ”
Li Haoran sighed again, although he was annoyed by the behavior of the flower man, he was moved by his depressed temperament, and he wanted to help this young man.
Li Haoran looked at Geng Nursing Courtyard and asked in a deep voice, "Brother Geng, do you know such a panacea?"
Geng Huyuan pondered for a while, and said, "Meng Ran's bottle of elixir may be useful, after all, this tendon and vein are newly broken, and it may be possible to repair it." ”
Li Haoran's face was overjoyed, and he said loudly: "Then I'll go find Meng Xiaozi......"
As soon as Li Haoran got up, he was stopped by Geng Huyuan and said: "Brother Li, don't worry, Meng Ran is meditating in the backyard, and the breath in his breath is not stopping, thinking that it is a critical moment, and it is not appropriate to disturb." ”
Li Haoran's expression was stunned, he sat back on the chair heavily, and said apologetically to Pinhua Daoren: "Then you kid just wait, if you miss the injury, don't complain." ”
Pinhua Daoren's expression was solemn, and he said respectfully: "The juniors thank the two seniors for their kindness, the juniors are willing to wait, even if they can't be cured, the juniors will remember the kindness of the two seniors." ”
Li Haoran snorted.
Geng Huyuan waved his hand, indicating that it was okay.
The three of them sat like that for a long time, chatting about some interesting stories and anecdotes in the rivers and lakes, so as to pass the time.
......
Around midnight, the eastern sky gradually whitened, and then the whole sky became brighter.
A ray of golden sunlight pierced the endless sky and sprinkled into the world.
Meng Ran, who was sitting near the lake, had a ray of light on his face, he slowly opened his eyes and looked at the lake quietly, the injustice between his chest and abdomen became more and more intense, so much that the whole person could not bear it.
Meng Ran slowly stood up and let out a clear roar at Nanhu, and the grievances and indignation in his heart were swept away.
In an instant, the mind turned, and all thoughts were revived.
With a slight swing of his knife, there was already a thin knife mark on the calm and waveless water, which was filled by the autumn water in an instant.
Meng Ran smiled heartily and said in a low voice: "I have a knife that can cut off the flow of water." ”
When the voice fell, there were already two more figures behind Meng Ran, it was Li Haoran and Geng Huyuan, who came to hear the news.
Geng Huyuan looked at Meng Ran with a satisfied expression, and praised in a low voice: "I originally thought that you would be lost for a while, but I didn't expect that you would have come out of the setback of failure so quickly, and the future can be expected." ”
Meng Ran bowed deeply to Geng Huyuan, and said very seriously: "Thank you Uncle Geng for your reprimand, without your advice, maybe my state of mind will be covered with a thin veil from now on, and my future achievements will be limited." ”
Geng Huyuan helped Meng Ran up and said, "Everything is your own chance, just cultivate well." I see that your cultivation is already very close to the fourth grade, just work hard, and the matter of breaking through the realm is at your fingertips. ”
Meng Ran smiled and replied, "Then borrow Uncle Geng's auspicious words." ”
Li Haoran, who was standing on the side, was so anxious that he said impatiently: "You two are not finished." Meng boy, there are still people waiting for you to be treated. ”
After hearing this, Meng Ran froze in place, and asked with a puzzled expression: "Ah, you want me to be treated, but I won't." ”
Li Haoran rolled his eyes and said, "I know you won't, I just want your pill." ”
Meng Ran didn't ask much, took out the porcelain bottle from his arms, and handed it to Li Haoran.
Li Haoran was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly turned around and went to the front yard.
Geng Huyuan patted Meng Ran on the shoulder and asked, "You gave away such a precious pill without even asking, don't you want to know who Brother Li wants to save is?"
"Who are you going to save?" Meng Ran asked.
"A young man who broke into the house last night. After Geng Huyuan finished speaking, he waited and watched Meng Ran's reaction.
Meng Ran was just stunned for a moment, and then his face was calm, he didn't ask anything, and he didn't have any extra expressions of remorse.
Geng Huyuan smiled lightly and said, "You, everything is good, but your temperament is too straight and your methods are too soft, and you will be easy to suffer big losses in the future." ”
Meng Ran just smiled and didn't say anything.
Then the two went back to the front hall together.
In the hall, Li Haoran had already fed Pinhua Dao people a pill.
Subsequently, the porcelain vase naturally returned to Meng Ran's arms.
Meng Ran sat down on the main seat, looked at the fierce figure lying on the ground, and asked Geng Huyuan, "Uncle Geng, who is this?"
Geng Huyuan said lightly: "The swordsman who cultivates the sword drawing technique, he also participated last night. ”
Meng Ran sighed and said softly: "Then it was quite lively last night, how many people came to our mansion in total?"
Geng Huyuan replied: "There are five people in total. ”
"So many?" Meng Ran was shocked for a moment and continued to ask, "What about the other two?"
Geng Huyuan glanced at the swordsman on the ground and said, "After I knocked him down, the two people hiding on the roof fled separately, and I only chased the old man with a higher cultivation, he has been killed by me, and as for the other one, he is missing."
I was a little worried about your safety, so I didn't pursue it any further, turned around and went back here, just in time to meet you going out. ”
Meng Ran's face flushed slightly, and he changed the subject and asked, "Uncle Geng, what is the situation with this swordsman?"
Geng Huyuan frowned slightly, and said with a solemn face: "It's not easy to say, if you treat it well, you can still recover, if you let it go, I'm afraid it won't last at night." ”
Meng Ran reached out and touched his arms, looking like he was about to take out the porcelain bottle.
After Geng Huyuan saw Meng Ran's movements, he just sighed lightly, but didn't say anything, just watched coldly.
Li Haoran, who was on the side, instantly exploded, and scolded loudly: "Meng boy, are you full of food? Do you think there are too many pills? If you have too much, give it to me." ”
Meng Ran's expression froze, his hand stopped in mid-air, and he didn't know whether to advance or retreat for a while.
After Meng Ran's hand was raised for a while, Geng Huyuan asked softly, "Do you really want to save him?"
Meng Ran thought for a moment and nodded.
Geng Huyuan smiled bitterly and said, "You young people, you really don't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive. Well, if you want to save him, hurry up. ”
Meng Ran snorted, took out the porcelain bottle in his arms, poured out a fragrant pill, and then took a few steps forward, helped the majestic swordsman up, and stuffed it into his mouth with great difficulty.
Then in the hall sat three idle Meng Fuzhong, plus two wounded people who had nothing to do, and beyond that was the poor worm who was tied to a pillar.
In the time that followed, the rest of the people in the Meng Mansion gradually got up and started a new busy day.
Several women living in the front yard were really frightened when they saw the strange and bizarre scene in the hall, and they all stayed away from that area, as if the hall was a gloomy hell that captured people's souls, and people did not dare to approach.
After breakfast, Meng Ran and the three of them felt that it was not a problem to go on like this, so they carried the three poor worms to the pavilion in the backyard and began to interrogate.
Meng Ran asked Hua Rong, who was heavy with an arrow and a calm face, "Are you the sharpshooter on the Mid-Autumn Night?"
Hua Rong glanced at Meng Ran and did not answer.
Meng Ran didn't get the answer he imagined, he just smiled lightly and said with a nonchalant expression: "With your cultivation, you are definitely not the only one who came here last night." Is your companion the old man who died or the coward?"
Hua Rong was speechless.
Meng Ran was unimpressed and continued: "If your companion is dead, then you are relatively lucky, and if your companion escapes, then you are unlucky. So are you lucky or unlucky?"
Hua Rong glanced at the chattering Meng Ran angrily, and said disdainfully: "You talk so much nonsense, like a girl, you kind of kill me." ”
Meng Ran smiled lightly and replied: "I think your companion is a girl, his brother is shouting and killing in front, and he is a turtle with a shrunken head in the back." ”
Hua Rong was immediately furious and scolded loudly: "You fart, my brother is not a bitch, he will definitely come back and kill you." ”
Meng Ran smiled and said, "Then the matter will be clear, the one who escaped is your companion and your brother." ”
Hua Rong, who knew that he was speechless, scolded loudly, eager to tear apart the smiling Meng Ran in front of him.
