Chapter 181.
Tang Yuyi’s face was slightly red, slightly drunk.
Wrapping her arms around Jiang Ran and leaning back, she closed her eyes.
Jiang Ran glanced at her twice and gently shook his head:
“Are you using wine to act crazy and deliberately taking advantage of me, or are you really incapable of drinking?”
“What cheapness do you have for me to take advantage of ah ……
“Don’t move, I’ll allow you to secretly be beautiful in your mind for a while, just for a while, sister shouldn’t be angry.”
The corners of Tang Yuyi’s mouth spread into a smile, her breathing all gradually smoothed out.
Jiang Ran was speechless for a while, turned back, smoothly pushed open the window of the carriage, looking at the scenery whizzing away on the street, his eyes vaguely flooded with thoughts.
This carriage walk did not cover up, much less leave the Evergreen Mansion.
After a few moments of circling around, it came to a courtyard.
Jiang Ran looked out from the window and saw a plaque hanging above the gate, which read: Green Mountain Residence.
“Young warrior Jiang, we’ve arrived.”
The voice of the man from earlier came from outside the carriage.
Jiang Ran gently pinched Tang Yingyi’s face.
Tang Yuyi yawned and opened her eyes:
“Arrived?”
“En, get off.”
Jiang Ran and Tang Wuyi got off the carriage one after the other, and saw the young men from the Hundred Treasures Society all standing at one side.
The one at the head was full of smiles, and Jiang Ran gently cupped his fists:
“I’m sorry.”
“I don’t dare, you two please follow me, my master has been waiting for a long time.”
The man stretched out his arm as a guide.
Jiang Ran nodded, then led Tang Wuyi to follow behind this person and entered this Green Mountain Residence.
The Hundred Treasures Society was wealthy and powerful, and the layout of this Green Mountain Residence was naturally extraordinary.
From time to time, you can see exotic flowers and plants, without realizing it, there are also exotic treasures just like ordinary furnishings, put aside to fall dust.
The layout of the courtyard is even more elegant, lined up, staggered, step by step, beautiful scenery.
This way, the landscape into the eyes, Jiang Ran all feel that the heart is open a lot.
A short while further in depth, a zither sound could be heard.
The sound of the zither was melodious and melodious, as if someone was whispering in his ear, lightly talking about his sorrows.
Jiang Ran corners of the mouth flooded a smile, along with the young man turned a corner, and then look forward to a small lake in the courtyard.
There is a pavilion in front of the lake.
Inside the pavilion there is a woman, buried in front of the case, accompanied by the smoke curls, plucking strings and stroking the piano.
This woman is dressed in white, dress spread out in the pavilion, long hair with the lake breeze slightly jumped up.
A plain and elegant, with a delicate and colorful face, but not a trace of a smile.
Her eyebrows are the most special, thin and long, like a willow leaf but not curved enough, vaguely translucent stern, under the eyebrow is a pair of phoenix eyes, the corners of the eyes are long and narrow, indifference is reflected in the cold.
This appearance and the sound of the piano in the small ‘sadness’ completely rely on the side.
Jiang Ran had heard Mr. Big mention it before.
Yan Wushuang, the vice-chairman of the Hundred Preciousness Society, whose whereabouts were a mystery, now appeared to have come to the Evergreen Mansion to wait for an unknown period of time.
At this time, the sound of the piano has been from the gentle, into the high pitch, the strings are trembling, as if it is already in a great deal of danger.
Jiang Ran was about to step with the young man, but saw the young man suddenly changed color.
Suddenly step out, the figure is like a meteor across the night, a little starlight abruptly far away.
Look at the appearance, actually seems to want to the woman in the pavilion shot.
But just at this moment, a bang came from the lake, the water column suddenly rose up to the sky, a man in black with two hands flung, two sharp awns suddenly hit the whistling directly rushed to the woman within the pavilion.
Just heard ‘ding ding’ two sounds.
The man who looked like a shooting star had already pointed out two swords, and those two flying swords were immediately sent flying out.
Immediately following that young man’s foot, the longsword in his hand turned and went straight for that man’s throat.
That black-clothed man made a mistake with his two hands, seemingly trying to make a child worship Goddess of Mercy, blocking his sword.
It was just that the speed of this sword was even faster than what he expected.
The moment he clamped both hands on the long sword, it had already penetrated his throat.
The young man was slightly relieved to see this and was about to pull out the longsword when he saw a flash of crazy joy in the eyes of that man in black.
His heart thumped, secretly saying that it was not good.
Suddenly, he turned back:
“Protect the head of the club!!!”
These four words seemed somewhat inexplicable.
The assassin had shown up and had already been killed, so why was it necessary to protect the Head of the Guild?
With this flinch alone, it was already a step too late.
A silhouette had already arrived behind the woman without a sound.
With a sweep of the blade in his hand, he was about to decapitate her.
But by now, the woman was still playing the zither.
It was as if she didn’t care about anything around her.
Jiang Ran held his arms and watched quietly, without the slightest intention to strike.
If this woman is really Yan Wushuang.
If this woman was really Yan Wushuang, if she really died from such a sneak attack under such circumstances.
Then such a person, there seems to be no need to see.
Seeing Jiang Ran’s indifference, turning a blind eye to this big beauty that had suddenly appeared in front of her, Tang Yuyi smiled happily for a moment.
Perhaps this smile was too conspicuous, attracting the woman in the pavilion couldn’t help but glance at her.
In the next moment, this woman suddenly hooked up a string, casually loosening it with a buzzing sound. The blade that had already reached the side of her neck immediately gave a slight lurch.
This knife unexpectedly could not fall down.
The woman also did not turn around, just gently hooked up the string, and there was another buzzing sound.
The person behind her suddenly screamed miserably, and the short knife in her hand almost fell down without being able to hold it.
“Sound power?”
Things have come to this point, where he did not know, not in front of this woman in the face of arrogance, but because, she really have no fear!
Where would he dare to stay? His body shape swayed, no longer cared about this companion’s opportunity to exchange his life for a chance, then wanted to escape.
“Where to go!
Hundred Precious Club’s previous young people stepped forward at the same time, sheathing their long swords in their hands, taking this person’s major acupoints around their body.
However, he did not expect that this assassin’s martial arts skills were extremely high, and his stance was even more bizarre.
A single knife in his hand turned, his body is like a gyroscope, just a tumbling effort, has broken into the Hundred Precious Club between this group of young people.
Wherever the short knife went, there was a succession of muffled grunts.
These few young men had no power to resist, and collapsed at the touch of a button.
It was then that the assassin shifted, half crouched on the ground, and turned back to look at the woman:
“Worthy of being Yan Wushuang, however, today’s matter is not over, Head of the Yan Club, from now on, you’d better sleep with one eye open!!!”
With these words, he turned around and was about to fly away.
However, he saw that a man and a woman were standing on the path he left at an unknown time, and immediately swept the short sword in his hand:
“Die!”
The blade that was taken towards the throat of these two people, then after the word ‘death’ fell, it quietly stopped.
It stopped before Jiang Ran’s throat, three inches away.
It was held between Jiang Ran’s two fingers.
The assassin’s face changed, subconsciously, his internal energy was running, and he used all his strength to try to retrieve the short sword, but it was as if the weapon was welded to Jiang Ran’s fingertips, and he could not shake it by a hair.
Even the woman inside the pavilion saw this scene and her gaze flickered slightly.
She had dealt with this assassin just now, seemingly rather easily.
However, she was also occupying a situation where she had a mind to count.
In fact, this assassin’s martial arts skills were not weak, otherwise, even if these young people from the Hundred Treasures Society were no longer useless, they would not have been defeated at the touch of a button.
Just didn’t expect that this assassin with not weak martial arts skills would be casually held by Jiang Ran’s blade, and couldn’t even yank it back.
“Who do you want to die?”
Jiang Ran raised his eyebrows slightly.
This person had struck out at someone else earlier, and Jiang Ran didn’t intend to take care of it.
After all, this was the land of the Hundred Treasures Society, it wasn’t his turn for an outsider to overstep his bounds.
But just because he and Tang Wuyi were in his way, he wanted to kill and take the road …… then this was a wrong calculation.
He out of the knife moment, Jiang Ran will hand in hand show Kun word 13 crazy devil claw.
To wait to pinch the single knife after, will run the savage dragon strength.
With Jiang Ran’s internal strength now to perform the Barbarian Dragon Force, that is simply brutal …… That assassin with all his strength, the veins on his brain are about to bleed, but also can not help a point a little bit.
Jiang Ran saw that he wanted his knife back, in the end he sighed and let go of his hand.
This person was using all his strength to grab the knife back, Jiang Ran was caught off guard by a hand, the whole force suddenly fell into the empty space, and heard a bang, he yanked back with both hands, and the knife hilt was directly hammered on his chest.
The whole person was driven by this force, flew backwards, violently sprayed a mouthful of blood, fell to the ground.
When he tried to stand up again, he heard a few whooshing sounds of long swords popping up and resting on his neck.
Seeing this, the assassin was slightly dumbfounded, but without the slightest hesitation, he violently slammed towards the long sword on his neck.
A bloodstain immediately appeared on his neck.
The entire person’s body flipped over and died on the spot.
“To be so obsessed with a sword, and to look down on one’s own life.”
Tang Yuyi tilted her head to look at it:
“It’s a swordsman.”
“…… Knifemen aren’t all like this.”
Jiang Ran felt that he should do right by the swordsman.
“Then what is a swordsman like?
“Not all of them are the kind that are cold, pulling out their swords at the drop of a hat.
“Crazy people who don’t care about anything other than victory, defeat, and their swords?
“Even when they’re poisoned, seriously injured and dying, they rush off to compete with their opponent.
“Finally defeated at the hands of the opponent, dying, the other side surprised to realize that he was highly poisoned, his own victory.
“Lamenting that the other party is a true swordsman ……”
Tang painting Yi gushing to tell do not know from which talk book seems to story.
Jiang Ran skimmed his mouth, “Sooner or later, I’ll sew your mouth shut.”
“Thanks to young warrior Jiang for stepping in, otherwise, this fang would have gotten away.”
The young man who was the leader earlier had already folded back at this time and came to Jiang Ran, clasping his hands to express his gratitude.
Jiang Ran waved his hand:
“I had no right to intervene in the affairs of the Hundred Treasures Society, much less to overstep my bounds,” he said.
“It’s just that this person ran at me and tried to kill me, more or less not knowing any better, that’s why I took the liberty to step in.
“But I don’t know which family’s assassin this is, why so flinty?”
“This …… under me also do not know.”
That young man let out a bitter smile:
“Since the Vice Guild Leader came to the Evergreen Mansion, he has had to face at least five or six assassinations in a day.
“At this point in time, all have stopped tracing the source ……
“Young warrior Jiang and this girl, quickly follow me.”
“No need.”
A clear and cold woman’s voice came from behind him.
As soon as he turned around, he saw that the woman who had been playing the zither in the pavilion just now had already arrived in front of him, so he immediately bowed and saluted:
“See Vice Head of the Council.”
“Get up.”
Yan Wushuang slightly waved his hand:
“The people under your hands still have to grind.”
“Yes.”
The young man nodded and glanced back at the few young men around him, sighing softly.
The performance of these few people just now was really poorly meant.
“I’ve made young warrior Jiang laugh.”
Yan Wushuang, on the other hand, clasped his fists and arched his hands at Jiang Ran at this moment:
“I have taken the liberty of inviting Young Swordsman Jiang to come and meet with us, so please don’t be offended.
“My name is Yan Wushuang, I have long admired the name of Young Warrior Jiang’s Amazing Divine Blade, which is why I took the liberty of inviting you.
“At today’s sight, it is indeed better to be known than to be seen, Young Swordsman Jiang is indeed a hero.”
Jiang Ran smiled at his words:
“Mr. Yan is too kind, I’m just a newcomer to the jianghu, I have some humble reputation, but it’s also because of my friends in the jianghu who love me.
“On the contrary, it’s Head Yan’s reputation that is truly as good as thunder.”
Tang Yuyi glanced at these two people, her brows furrowed slightly, and suddenly smiled:
“I’m afraid that this time, Head of the Yan Association has sought us out, it’s not just for the simple purpose of meeting us, is it?
“But for the scorched tail zither?”
Yan Wushuang sniffed and glanced at Tang Yuyi, saying with some surprise:
“I have heard a bit about the friend beside young warrior Jiang.
“I’ve long heard that Miss Red Maple Villa is Young Master Jiang’s confidante.
“I have also heard that the Soft Water Sword of the Water Moon Sword Sect is also a close friend of Young Warrior Jiang. ……
“But I don’t know who this girl is?”
This was not a very good question to answer.
Tang Wuyi also can’t say that she is his wife and sister …… After all, under deep investigation in case the demonic sect is involved, it’s never a good thing for Jiang Ran.
For the sake of Jiang Ran’s reputation, no matter what, we can’t let him get involved with the devil’s religion.
This was also one of the reasons why the Tang family had left.
In the midst of the dilemma, he heard Jiang Ran laugh:
“This is the child of a friend’s family, not properly serving his parents at home, running out and wanting to venture into the world.
“I didn’t expect to be caught by me in the Evergreen Mansion ……
“After waiting for the matter in the Evergreen Mansion to end, I still have to return her to her parents.”
“……”
Tang Yuyi more or less wanted to bite.
“I see.”
Yan Wushuang smiled and didn’t pursue the matter:
“But what this girl said is actually correct, I am here to invite you, and it is indeed for the Jiao Tail Qin.
“Young warrior Jiang, I have prepared some fruits and snacks, please take a seat and sip tea, can we talk in detail?”
“Please.”
Since he had come, he was at peace, the Hundred Treasures Society had set out their cart with a clear goal, but it was better than the kind of people from the Penetrating Thunder Hall who were secretly practicing their tactics.
Arriving within the pavilion, the two sides were seated in groups of guests and hosts.
Yan Wushuang gently clapped her hands, and immediately someone came with a tray.
On the tray was a wine pot, Yan Wushuang took it with both hands and said with a smile:
“I have long heard that young warrior Jiang has no wine and is a great man of drink.
“I am a businessman, and have always liked to throw in my lot.
“The indulgence on top of the carriage, does Young Warrior Jiang still like it?”
“It is indeed good wine.”
Jiang Ran nodded and patted his wine gourd again, “So I’ll just load it in, ready to go back and savor it slowly.”
“This is naturally good.”
Yan Wushuang nodded with a light smile before pouring Jiang Ran another cup:
“This pot is also from the Thousand Yums Villa, named [Gao Ge].
“First taste the Indulgence, then the High Song.
“Drunkenness and song, the geometry of life.”
Jiang Ran laughed dumbly, picking up the wine cup and first sniffing it before tasting it, and finally drinking it all in one go:
“Indulgence in the first, high song in the second.
“En …… actually led to a smooth heart, and it really has a great aftertaste.”
“It’s good that young warrior Jiang likes it.”
Yan Wushuang said, “Some time ago, I just pulled these two kinds of wine from the Thousand Yum Villa, each pulling in three hundred pounds. When Young Swordsman Jiang leaves in a while, he can take all of them with him.”
“A total of six hundred pounds?”
Although Jiang Ran forced himself to hold back, his eyes couldn’t help but light up a bit.
With these six hundred pounds of fine wine, he could make a wine pool to soak himself in.
Moreover, these two kinds of wine are very expensive …… a small pot can be sold for two hundred taels.
This pot holds up half a catty of wine.
Then this six hundred pounds, less say more than two hundred thousand taels of silver.
Jiang Ran has always felt that he is rich and generous, all the money in his baggage.
However, compared to Yan Wushuang, he instantly felt that he was poor.
He gave a bitter laugh:
“Head of the Yan Club is really good at throwing his weight around ……
“Rather, it’s so hard for people to part with it.”
Yan Wushuang smiled at his words:
“Young Master Jiang, you know the legend of the Jiao Tail Qin.
“I think this qin has no use in your hands.
“It doesn’t dare to play it, it can’t be thrown away, and it’s always inviting disaster.
“Such a thing, eat inappropriate food, drink inappropriate drink, why always stay around it?”
“Then if the Jiao Tail Qin is handed over to the Hundred Treasures Society, what will you do with it?”
Jiang Ran casually picked up the wine pot and poured himself another cup.
Yan Wushuang said softly:
“Naturally, I will look for ways to unlock the secrets of this qin.”
Jiang Ran smiled:
“The Jiao Tail Qin is one of the twelve heavenly dexterities, and possesses great power in itself.
“If we can unlock the secrets of …… this six hundred pounds of fine wine, I’m afraid it can’t be compared to it, right?”
“That’s why I’ve prepared a few other gifts for Young Master Jiang.”
Yan Wushuang said and gently clapped her hands.
Immediately, someone walked over with one tray covered in red cloth.
There were a total of three before and after.
There were large and small, with different shapes, hidden within the red cloth, so it was impossible to see exactly what they were.
These few people came to the front and did not put the things down, but listed them in a row.
Yan Wushuang stood up and walked to the first treasure, reached out and lifted the red cloth on it, smiling:
“Young warrior Jiang and look.”
Jiang Ran looked up and saw that underneath the red cloth was a gourd.
Body purple gold, belly large crooked, the center tied a red polyester jade string, looks very extraordinary.
“This is?”
Jiang Ran gave Yan Wushuang a somewhat strange look.
Yan Wushuang took this gourd in his hands and let out a light laugh:
“This item is called the Purple Jade Gourd, it is an exotic treasure, and is even known as the world’s number one wine vessel.”
“Purple Jade Gourd?”
Tang Yuyi was taken aback, “This thing actually exists?”
“You know?”
Jiang Ran was somewhat surprised while glancing at Tang Wuyi.
Tang Yingyi nodded:
“It is recorded in the Record of Curious Treasures that the Purple Jade Gourd can turn clear water into fine wine, and ordinary wine into aged wine.
“It’s just that the legend is too bizarre, and I’ve always just taken it as conjecture.
“I didn’t expect the Hundred Treasures Society to be this capable, to be able to seek out this thing that makes the world’s alcoholics go crazy.”
Yan Wushuang smiled faintly:
“Girl’s erudition and knowledge calls for admiration.”
After saying that, she first inverted the gourd, indicating that it was empty, and then came to the edge of the lake and filled a gourd of lake water:
“What is the magic of this thing, the book to get the ultimate shallow, as the saying goes, it is better to hear than to see, Jiang young warrior personally see.”
She said, flipped open a teacup, poured out the water in the gourd, and stretched out her arm as a guide:
“Please.”
Jiang Ran would believe it, picked up the teacup and brought it up to his nose for a sniff, his expression changed slightly, and he looked at Yan Wushuang with an odd expression:
“This seems to be …… still lake water ah.”
Yan Wushuang’s originally certain smile, suddenly slightly stiffened:
“Ah?”
