Chapter 108.
This kind of thing was by no means impossible.
Jiang Ran was a traveler and a man of the jianghu.
It was also by no means believed that the imperial court was what represented absolute justice.
Although his system was predicated on the premise of seafaring documents and catching and taking people in exchange for rewards.
But this was merely the system’s logic as well as its mechanism.
It did not represent Jiang Ran’s own stance as well as his concepts of good and evil.
Therefore, when he saw this wanted list, the first thing he thought was how much of it was true and how much was false? And how many of them were fake?
And then not ……
The appearance of the Sword Enforcement Division could have been to remove these disobedient people in the Jianghu for the imperial court.
When I first learned about the Sword Enforcement Division and this order to catch the sword.
The thought that came to Jiang Ran’s mind was ‘learning from the barbarians to control the barbarians’.
The jianghu has been in chaos for many years, and there are a few scourges all over the world.
It made sense for the imperial court to come up with such a method.
Jiang Ran has such a system in, itself, although it is not considered to be happy about it, but also think it does not matter.
But once this list came out, it gave him some concerns.
He can kill people, but he is not willing to become a knife in the palm of the hand of others.
Even if he could gain benefits from it, he was not willing to kill innocents indiscriminately.
This was the bottom line.
However, these things could be considered later, as of now, the Yang Yue Er Jun had to die from all standpoints.
Either they die, or they themselves die.
Or else the old drunkard would die.
Ever since the old drunkard chopped off their arms twenty years ago, this feud had to end with the death of one of the parties.
Between the turns of his mind, Jiang Ran looked up at Chang Nian and said with a smile:
“Where’s Dao Wu Ming?”
“He’s already gone.”
Changnian laughed:
“He comes and goes like the wind, I don’t know where he comes from when he comes, and I don’t know where he goes when he goes.”
Jiang Ran nodded and did not ask again.
And at this moment, there was already a magistrate coming over with a tray with many silver bills on it.
“Young warrior count them.”
Seeing this, Chang Nian stretched out his arm as a guide, letting the magistrate hand over the silver bills to Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran nodded and took it smoothly.
The next moment, densely packed tips appeared in front of him.
At this moment, he couldn’t bother to take a closer look, so he hid the system for the time being.
Took the silver ticket and compared it, a total of nineteen thousand six hundred taels.
Jiang Ran counted the money, Chang Nian looked on.
Finally, when Jiang Ran put all the money into his arms, Changnian was disappointed.
Jiang Ran smiled at this:
“Well, the matter here has been settled, the grass people leave.”
Ye Qingshang immediately followed suit and got up to say goodbye.
Chang Nian said with a dry smile:
“Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Why don’t you stay for a light meal?
“But now that there is no money within the county office, you two won’t mind the rough tea and meal, right?”
“Don’t mind, naturally.”
Jiang Ran laughed:
“It’s just that I have a craving today and want to go eat meat, so I’ll bother Lord Chang next time.”
“……”
Chang Nian was speechless for a while and could only get up to see off the guests.
Until after sending the two people out of the county office, he then turned back reluctantly, feeling that what was gone was not Jiang Ran, what was gone was the silver that cost nothing.
The good thing is that this money is not just gone, will be detailed explanation of this matter, and then find someone to compare the head, after checking the identity.
This silver court will be transferred from the treasury to fill the Penma County Yamen.
Just this in a circle, exactly how many hands, and to be exploited layer by layer, and finally fell into their hands will be how much, it is not easy to say.
Thinking about this, Changnian again feel meat pain.
Jiang Ran’s side is in a good mood, and Ye Qingshuang did not go directly back to the inn, but first went to Master Ma’s side.
His things are at that end, the clothes also have to change, this a flowery green is in order to mix into the left road Zhuang gang.
At that time, Tong Wanli and the others went into the Valley of the Living Dead first, followed by the people of the Left Road Manor.
Jiang Ran will be hidden in the left near, to wait for the arrival of the people of the left manor, which is not moving to mix into them.
Only then will he be able to determine when he will encounter Tong Wanli and his party.
Lest by the time they start not to fight, turn back to explain the situation clearly in a few words, then the play will be in vain.
The reason why they were able to fight as soon as they met was due to the words that Jiang Ran had initially said.
Now that the big deal was over, naturally they had to change back into their own clothes.
Putting the silver tickets into his baggage, Jiang Ran pulled at it slightly, feeling that he was really quite rich now.
After the Cangzhou Prefecture matter, Jiang Ran had obtained thirteen thousand five hundred taels.
Now he has 19,600 taels, plus those bits and pieces from earlier.
It would never be too much to say that he was extremely wealthy!
What’s more, he had two more heads in his hands now.
The heads of Dugu Yu and Yin Yuniang wanted to be delivered, but not in this county office.
Instead, there is another place.
The nearest one is within the Cangzhou Prefecture.
If this trip is to return to the Red Maple Leaf family first, it is possible to make a detour to the Cangzhou Prefecture first, and hand over this matter.
And this more than 19,000 silver, Jiang Ran also do not intend to leave all by themselves.
After all, this trip, there are Li Tianxin and other people to help.
Not sharing a little bit of silver was really not justifiable.
After fixing his traveling clothes, Jiang Ran led Ye Jingshuang to the inn.
Entered the door to see Li Tianxin is sitting alone inside the inn, holding a cup of wine small sip, holding a pair of chopsticks to clip a peanut to send wine, eat quite contented look.
Instead of seeing the ghost thirteen of Timiao they.
Jiang Ran led Ye Shocking Frost to unceremoniously sit opposite Li Tianxin.
Li Tianxin looked up and glanced at him, then dropped his gaze:
“Received the silver?”
“Where are the others?”
Jiang Ran asked.
“Gone.”
Li Tianxin didn’t beat around the bush:
“Ghost Thirteen said that he had another important matter on his mind, guessing that he was going to see that House Master to report on this matter.
“Timiao said that she came down to the mountains this time to experience the jianghu and sharpen her sword.
“So, not being able to delay sharpening her sword, she left as well.”
As he said this, he glanced at Ye Shockfang:
“She left a letter for you in your room.”
“Thanks for the reminder.”
Ye Jingfang nodded.
Jiang Ran gave Li Tianxin a somewhat odd look:
“What about you?”
“I what?”
“Why don’t you leave?”
“…… Why should I leave?”
Li Tianxin looked up at Jiang Ran.
“Also …… forget it, just your life is good.”
Jiang Ran plucked a moment from his baggage and took out a handful of silver tickets and slapped them on Li Tianxin’s heel.
Li Tianxin froze for a moment as she looked at it:
“This is?”
“Dividing the spoils.”
As Jiang Ran spoke, he pulled out another handful of silver tickets and handed them over to Ye Jingfang.
Ye Jingshang quickly waved her hand:
“Big brother Jiang, I don’t need it, right?”
“People in the world, no money can’t do, haven’t you heard that it’s hard to beat a hero for a penny?
“The force has been contributed, how can I not pay? I’m not Pickpocket Zhou.”
Li Tianxin nodded:
“That’s right, although I don’t know who the Pickpocket Zhou you’re talking about is, he at least wouldn’t just poison people.”
“En?”
Jiang Ran glanced at him, “You’re not going to drink this wine?”
“……”
Li Tianxin froze, looking at the wine glass in his hand and then at Jiang Ran:
“You won’t …… again.”
“You guess.”
“I’ll guess your ass!”
Li Tianxin grunted and collected the silver tickets on the table, not counting them and stuffing them directly into his arms.
Ye Jingshang thought for a moment, but did not push back, and put the silver tickets away.
Then he said to Jiang Ran:
“Then I’ll go to my aunt and cousin first, to talk about what’s next.”
“En.”
Jiang Ran nodded:
“There’s no rush, just rest here for the night and leave early tomorrow morning.”
“Good.”
Ye Jingshang agreed and went upstairs first.
Li Tianxin looked at Ye Jingshuang’s back for two moments, then withdrew her gaze back and landed on Jiang Ran’s body:
“What are you going to do about this girl?”
“What to do?”
“What what to do? This girl is obviously interested in you, aren’t you going to push the boat along and incorporate it into your room?”
Li Tianxin scowled at Jiang Ran.
The corner of Jiang Ran’s mouth twitched:
“Where did your coolness go when you first met her? Originally ugly, a little bit of high cold can barely be seen, this will be the five senses flying, is really hot eyes ah.”
“It’s none of your business whether I look good or not!
“Besides, I’m a big man, a little ugly doesn’t affect anything.
“Like you, greasy hair and powdered face, leaving love everywhere ……”
Li Tianxin blankly glanced at Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran was instantly angry:
“When did I show love everywhere?”
“I’m just afraid you’ll show affection without realizing it.”
Li Tianxin laughed coldly: “If you go back and harm someone else’s girl’s life, let’s see if you feel guilty.”
“What a mess.”
Jiang Ran shook his head:
“Too lazy to talk to you more, I still have business to do.”
After saying that, he got up and went upstairs as well.
Li Tianxin’s gaze lingered behind him for a while, and her mouth rambled, saying two sentences of something in a voice only she could hear.
Finally, she stomped her foot gently and grunted:
“Not a single good thing.”
As soon as the words fell, Jiang Ran’s voice was heard:
“Who are you talking about?”
“Huh?”
Li Tianxin was startled, then she looked at Jiang Ran who had come down from upstairs again at some point:
“Didn’t you go upstairs?”
“Suddenly thought of something, want to ask you.”
Jiang Ran also didn’t hold on to what happened just now:
“As far as your insight is concerned, have you ever heard that there is a martial art in the Devil’s Cult that allows people to instantly dissipate without a trace in front of you?
“It is as if one is invisible and hiding.”
After hearing this, Li Tianxin was visibly stunned and stood up with a huff:
“The person you saw, where is he now?”
“Long gone.”
Jiang Ran looked at him twice:
“You know this person?”
Li Tianxin frowned and looked at Jiang Ran twice more before saying:
“This kind of kung fu you’re talking about is a mastery in the Eighteen Heavenly Demon Records.
“The name is [Great Selfless Heavenly Devil Ten Thousand Thoughts Technique], and it is one of the most brilliant martial arts in the Eighteen Heavenly Devil Records.
“It can be utilized to create illusions of form with thoughts through the externalization of internal energy.
“It is rumored that when practiced to a high level, it can transform into seven in one body.
“And each phantom preserves a certain amount of the body’s power, while its own power remains intact.
“As the power deepens, the distance between the phantom and the main body will gradually become longer.
“At first, it is three zhang square, and the distance increases by one zhang for each level of refinement of the internal kung fu.
“Up to eighteen zhang.
“The time of simultaneous existence will also gradually increase with the depth of the kung fu.
“It can last up to half an hour.”
After these words entered his ears, Jiang Ran’s heart was also vaguely flooded with a sense of horror.
Seeing that old man today, he only felt that this person’s power was unfathomable, but he didn’t realize that it wasn’t even his real body.
His real body should be hidden within the eighteen square feet of where he was at that time.
He hadn’t even noticed this person in the slightest.
“Who the hell is he?”
Jiang Ran asked in a deep voice.
“If it’s really the Great Selfless Heavenly Demon Ten Thousand Thoughts Technique, as far as I know, amongst these remaining members of the Demon Sect today, there is only one person who has practiced this martial art.
“It is the head of these remnants, the current …… Demon Sect Sect Master!”
Li Tianxin said this and gave Jiang Ran a serious look:
“Where exactly have you seen this person?”
“Ask the Fragrant Forest.”
Seeing that Li Tianxin said it this way, Jiang Ran then didn’t hide it.
Li Tianxin then got up and left.
“He’s already gone.”
Jiang Ran said.
“For the first time in all these years, I’m so close to him, even if he’s gone, I still have to go and take a look.”
Li Tianxin glanced back at Jiang Ran:
“Don’t mind your own business.”
“Can you be sure?”
“Even if we meet, it’s not yet known who the deer will die.”
Li Tianxin spoke coldly.
Jiang Ran raised his eyebrows, although he didn’t know where Li Tianxin got this confidence.
However, hearing him say this, he nodded in the end:
“Then you go.”
“Farewell.”
Li Tianxin looked deeply at Jiang Ran and flew out of the inn’s entrance.
Jiang Ran frowned slightly, and after hesitating for a moment, he still didn’t follow.
Li Tianxin had his own thoughts, his origin and birth were far from ordinary.
Now that he was determined to go, he really didn’t have the right position to stop him.
After thinking for a while, he sighed and got up to go upstairs.
He really did have business to attend to.
Dugu Yu and Yin Yue Niang’s heads had to be dealt with.
Otherwise, just according to today’s weather, it was estimated that within a few days of work, these two heads would rot.
Secondly, he had to receive the rewards.
After working on these two heads for nearly an hour, Jiang Ran sat down in front of the bed.
Only then did Jiang Ran sit down in front of the bed, and with a thought, the system interface popped up in front of him.
[Gained reward: two years of internal strength!
[Obtained Reward: Three Years of Internal Strength!
[Gained Reward ……]
The first few were all internal strength, and Jiang Ran estimated that it added up to exactly twenty years.
However, Jiang Ran didn’t collect it.
Instead, he continued to look down.
There were three more rewards to come.
[Receive Reward: Subterranean Shadow Fascination Steps (thirty-five years)!
[Reward: Split Tendon and Bone Hand (thirty years)!
[Reward obtained: Great Brahma Vajra Technique (27 years)!
Looking at these three rewards, Jiang Ran’s brows furrowed.
Especially the Splitting Tendon and Bone Hand among them.
There were quite a few people in the world who knew this technique, and some martial arts centers were even able to learn it for a price.
Although there is no thirty years of enchantment …… it is nothing more than a matter of proficiency.
Not to mention that there are a lot of people, on top of this foundation, but also to push the new, derived from a different faction, more skillful techniques.
Therefore, this reward …… is really a little bit difficult to say.
As for the Subterranean Shadow Fascination Step.
This kung fu should be that Liao Chengfeng’s.
Liao Chengfeng is a remnant of the Sojourn Sect, a sect that Jiang Ran doesn’t know much about, but judging from Dugu Yu’s words and theirs, it’s most likely to be practicing sneaky things within its sect.
From the name of this reward, it should be one of the light skills.
If it really has the ability of ‘submerged shadow mesmerizing god’, it is not too bad.
However, the most important thing was the final [Great Brahma Vajra Technique].
Yesterday, he had seen the protective power of this martial art.
Although it was flawed, its power was there for all to see.
This rather made Jiang Ran a bit torn.
The point he was torn about was that he had already given up two rewards and gained two buff boosts.
It was possible to boost the next reward received.
Originally, with so many rewards this time, if there was anything he didn’t need, Jiang Ran could have given up.
But nowadays, it seemed that the most unreliable one was the thirty years of Splitting Tendons and Bone Hands.
But to say that he would give up, he felt that it was a pity.
If you just rely on the two buffs, you don’t know to what extent you can raise this Da Van Vajra Skill.
In addition to this, Jiang Ran also had another concern in his mind.
He himself practiced the Taoist’s Creation and Corrective Heart Sutra.
If he were to receive this Great Brahma Vajra Skill, could Buddhism and Taoism possibly merge?
“Such a choice …… is a bit risky.”
Jiang Ran gazed at this reward for a long time, and after hesitating, he gave up on the Splitting Tendon and Bone Hand.
This kung fu was a grappling technique, one already had the [Kun Zi 13 Crazy Devil Claws], which was stronger than this Tendon Splitting Hands, I don’t know how much stronger it was.
From this, Jiang Ran had indeed stacked another buff.
He then looked towards the Great Brahma Vajra Skill and chose to receive it.
The next moment, a prompt appeared in front of Jiang Ran.
[Whether or not to upgrade this reward?
“Yes.”
[The Great Brahma Vajra Skill has been elevated to thirty-seven years!
[Whether to continue upgrading?]
“Upgrading once is ten years?”
Jiang Ran drifted off, then elevated it two more times.
When the last choice was made, no prompts appeared, and in the next moment, the vastness of words like an ocean surfaced in his mind, while an extremely pure internal force flooded from his dantian.
This internal force was different from Jiang Ran’s Creation Positive Heart Sutra.
Pure in the seemingly golden light, Jiang Ran’s ears are faintly Zen sound, words and phrases to make its treasure solemn.
At the time when this internal force was dispersed, Jiang Ran’s body of Creation Heart Sutra abruptly turned.
It had come out from its original trajectory and involved the internal force of the Da Brahma Vajra Skill.
Jiang Ran was stunned, and in his heart, he said that it was not good.
Could it be that these two types of internal force could not coexist?
This thought had just arisen when he realized that the power of the Creation Positive Heart Sutra, which he had broken through to the eighth level, had begun to become thicker and thicker.
As for the Da Brahma Vajra Skill internal force derived from the dantian, every bit of it that appeared was naturally swept up by the Creation Positive Heart Sutra, growing itself!
“This ……”
Jiang Ran suddenly thought of all the rumors about the Creation Positive Heart Sutra.
Someone had pushed the Creation Positive Heart Sutra with many years of refined internal strength, and subsequently, because they hadn’t reached the sixth gravity, they had caused their internal strength to regress.
No one had elaborated on whether or not it was possible to switch to the original martial arts after regressing in one’s internal strength.
Nowadays, it seems that it is not possible!
The Creation Positive Heart Sutra appeared to be clear-sleeved and Taoist in nature.
In fact, it is overbearing to the extreme, it simply can not allow other internal forces to coexist with it.
There is no hope for a change of practice, only a mind in this martial arts on the dead beat.
Knocked to the end, ended up with a miserable end.
