Chapter 219.
Even if one’s martial arts skills were high, it would be difficult to tangle with the vicious beasts in the water when one was in the water.
Although Yan Wushuang thought that her martial arts were good, she didn’t think that she could fight this many salamanders and beasts on her own.
If it wasn’t for Jiang Ran’s Vajra Dharma protection, I’m afraid that when she fell into the water just now, she would have already become their meal.
Therefore, she could only follow Jiang Ran’s orders and dragged him hard to swim to the shore.
It was just that she was injured, and Jiang Ran still had a lot of burdens on his body, so it was quite heavy.
This way of dragging and pulling, can be described as difficult.
Midway choked several mouths of water, changed the air several times, looked close, but felt that his qi veins have been exhausted.
Heart can not help but begin to anxious.
Turning his head to look around, those black shadows are still hovering, constantly crashing, so he had to forcefully tug Jiang Ran:
“This time, we are afraid …… really …… really going to die in one place ……”
“The deputy head of the Hundred Treasures Society is so useless?”
Jiang Ran glanced at her, “Can’t even swim to the shore?”
“I was at least injured to save you.”
Yan Wushuang was annoyed beyond words, “You dragged me Hundred Treasures Society into the water, tired me out and now I’m in danger, and you’re still here to say that I’m useless …… Jiang Warrior, this is not the way of chivalry for you!
“I’m telling you …… me ……”
When she said this, she was finally unable to continue, her feet sank, and her gurgling mouth bubbled, and she was about to fall into it.
Jiang Ran backhanded her embrace, a mouthful of true qi lift, the whole person will fly up.
Since then, the Golden Diamond Dharma phase dissipated, and those evil beasts in the water immediately flew to them.
Jiang Ran stepped on the head of one of the beasts, his figure was like a sword, and in just a flash, he had already crossed the heavenly moat that Yan Wushuang seemed to have difficulty in crossing no matter what, and came to the shore.
Only when the two people had their feet on the ground did Yan Wushuang come back to her senses:
“You …… you obviously can bring me to jump over ……”
“Too far away won’t work, close is okay.”
Between Jiang Ran’s words, the Shattered Gold Blade was already sheathed in his hand.
With a display of the blade, a foreign beast that had followed him to the shore had already been cut in half by his blade.
The bloody aura spread across this square inch area in an instant.
“They are actually able to go ashore!?”
Yan Wushuang was taken aback.
“If they’re salamanders, they should be amphibious ……”
Jiang Ran spoke casually, his blade flashing one after another.
These foreign beasts were ferocious, and the death of their companions didn’t cause them to back down, instead, they stirred up their ferocity.
It was a pity that they were facing Jiang Ran, who was even more ferocious than them.
If they didn’t die, Jiang Ran would let them die completely.
With only a few slashes before and after, the shore was already littered with corpses.
The remaining beasts finally didn’t dare to charge again, and after stopping their steps, they stared at Jiang Ran and Yan Wushuang and slowly retreated into the water.
There were still a few that seemed to be unwilling, and finally retreated with the corpses of their companions in their mouths.
Seeing this, Jiang Ran withdrew his Shattered Gold Blade.
He glanced at Yan Wushuang, who was in a terrible state of distress beside him:
“How’s it going?”
“…… Thanks to your blessing, it’s still alive.”
“That’s good, let’s go.”
“You’re still human aren’t you?”
Yan Wushuang’s eyes widened:
“I’m dying and you’re still letting me go? The first time I went with you, we encountered the Heavenly Que. The second time I went with you, we fell inside this trap.
“This time, are you planning to just dig a pit and bury me straight away?”
“You’re the one who said it was fine.”
Jiang Ran shook his head, “Since there’s something wrong, take a break for now. Can you still run your energy?”
“The qi veins are damaged, so we need to take it slowly.”
Yan Wushuang grunted, sat down on the ground with his knees crossed, and was about to run his internal energy when he sneezed a big sneeze.
“Come here, I’ll run your energy.”
Jiang Ran spoke.
“No need!!!”
Yan Wushuang immediately waved her hand, “I don’t dare to trouble Jiang Warrior!”
“…… So be it.”
Jiang Ran didn’t care, “Then you wait here for a little while, I’ll see if there’s anything usable around.”
After saying that, he didn’t care what Yan Wushuang thought, and directly turned around and went into the darkness.
This shore inward was an open space, only to be shrouded in darkness.
Yan Wushuang had wanted to slowly condense his true qi, however, there were always sounds of subtleties ringing in his ears.
If these voices were in a different environment, there would be no harm.
But at this moment, they were like a magic spell that scratched at her heart.
It made her uncontrollably fearful.
At the same time, she thought of the beasts in the water that Jiang Ran had forced back.
These beasts were ferocious and bloodthirsty, they had been killed by Jiang Ran and were afraid, now they were left alone, in case they returned, when Jiang Ran came back, she was afraid that she would be able to see her own skeleton.
Thinking of this, she gently swallowed a mouthful of water and shouted in a low voice:
“Jiang …… Jiang warrior, are you still there?”
The voice passed empty and eventually dissolved into nothingness.
It did not receive a half-hearted echo from Jiang Ran.
This made Yan Wushuang’s heart sink one by one …… This person wouldn’t have left me behind and he ran away by himself, right?
Called two more times, never saw Jiang Ran response.
Yan Wushuang was then completely surrounded by fear, only as the vice head of the Hundred Treasures Society, she would never be able to show her weakness in any situation.
Therefore, she just took a deep breath and braced herself to mobilize her internal energy.
Just the body is already a thief to the building, Xu Xu Tu Yi is still okay, this kind of hasty, in turn, it is easy to go into the devil.
For a moment, the sanity is muddled, feel the surrounding light and shadow strange, distorted abnormality.
This weirdness adds to the ghostly atmosphere.
Let Yan Wushuang body qi pulse operation intermittent, inadvertently, but also nearly made a mistake.
Eyes about to spray a mouthful of blood, just heard a snap sound.
Along with the sound, there were flames spreading out.
This light caught Yan Wushuang’s attention, and when she looked up, she saw that Jiang Ran had returned at some point.
He was squatting on the ground and hitting the sparks with a flint to ignite a fire-starting object.
“…… You didn’t leave?”
Yan Wushuang subconsciously opened her mouth, just as soon as she spoke, she felt her nose stuffy again.
She was wet, her internal energy was not yet born, and the pool water was cold, these several conditions coalesced in one place, and in the twinkling of an eye, she was cooled.
Jiang Ran did not look back and struck the flint, finally igniting a flame:
“Fire folders and other things have been in the water, can not be used.
“I found some dry firewood and things to start the fire not far away, however, the most troublesome thing is that this flint is not easy to find.
“Good thing is to find …… the clothes on your body are all wet, if you don’t want me to give you the power to carry the words, then take it off and dry it by yourself.
“Otherwise I’m worried that you can’t support to going out from here.”
“……”
Yan Wushuang had now regretted saying the words that she wouldn’t let Jiang Ran carry her energy.
However, for someone like her, words spoken were nails in the ground, that had to count for something.
Immediately, she nodded:
“Have a heart.”
Jiang Ran gently stirred the flames, letting the fire grow brighter and brighter, and only after it was burning brightly did he put down the wooden branch in his hand.
He walked to the side and sat down on his knees:
“Head of the Yan Club is free to do as he pleases.”
Then he closed his own eyes and began to realize his internal energy.
Yan Wushuang looked at Jiang Ran sitting there so openly, hesitating for a moment.
It was only after a long time that she hummed and reached out to unclothe her black clothes, taking them off one by one, leaving only her blasphemous clothes and pants.
What she wore inside was mostly light and comfortable clothes, and now that she was soaked by the pool water, it was better than nothing.
Fortunately, Jiang Ran’s eyes were tightly closed, which made her feel slightly at ease.
Taking up a branch, she picked up the clothes and baked them next to the flame.
The sound of water in her ears, Yan Wushuang is helpless in her heart, how long will this take to bake?
Why don’t we ask Jiang Ran for a favor?
Just let him help himself to dry it with the power ……
“How long do you have to bake this?”
Jiang Ran’s voice entered her ears at that moment.
Yan Wushuang was the first to change was her face, her entire face reddening to the back of her ears.
Hastily, she blocked her front with her clothes:
“Jiang warrior …… haven’t you ever heard of what it means to be impolite?”
“I’ve heard of it.”
Jiang Ran said, “Then Jiang Mou does not look is, Yan will head here, slowly baked, in the next farewell.”
“…… You stand still!”
Yan Wushuang shouted in a hurry.
“En, what else does Yan Hui Shou command?”
Yan Wushuang didn’t know if it was his own illusion, but he always felt that when Jiang Ran said this, there was a three-quarter tease in his tone.
Is this person …… not enjoying seeing himself in this predicament?
Thinking about it carefully, this may not be impossible.
This person seems to be chivalrous, but in reality, his face is thick and his heart is black.
Sunset Ping staged such a big scene, almost the entire Jianghu are cheated.
After a little trick, borrowed Ximen Feng’s mouth, lured himself and Hundred Treasures into the Heavenly Que’s bureau.
What he did was really not related to being honorable.
Black hearted and ruthless might be a bit too much, but this bastard is by no means a good person.
Thinking of this, she took a deep breath and felt that she couldn’t be caught in the current predicament, so she opened her mouth and said:
“Do you have a way to be able to get out from this place?”
“Since it’s a trap, there must be a way out.”
Jiang Ran glanced at the water surface of the pool not far away, “What I’m curious about now is whether these foreign beasts originally flourished here naturally, or whether someone raised them here later?”
“En……”
Yan Wushuang understood what Jiang Ran meant.
If it was natural reproduction, then there was nothing to say.
But if it was the latter …… If this place itself was a trap that one could not get out of, why would there be a need to keep these foreign beasts in captivity to eat people?
Thinking of this, she glanced at Jiang Ran:
“Then what do we do next?”
“After you’ve gotten dressed, we’ll take a walk and stroll around, I see that the space over there isn’t small, so exploring a bit might be able to yield some rewards.”
Jiang Ran said while looking up again at the direction they had fallen from.
That location was not too close to here, the four fields were empty, there was nowhere to land, it was estimated that unless one had a lightweight skill that could step on emptiness in the air, otherwise, it would be impossible to climb up from the original path.
Yan Wushuang nodded:
“Then you turn around.”
“…… Why?”
Jiang Ran asked.
“Don’t you think that’s a redundant question to ask?”
Yan Wushuang frowned slightly, “I’m a girl!”
Jiang Ran was dumbfounded for a moment, so he honestly turned his back to Yan Wushuang:
“I didn’t expect that the Vice Head of the Hundred Treasures Society would still care about the difference between men and women.”
Seeing Jiang Ran being honest, Yan Wushuang was slightly relieved.
She re-twisted the clothes vigorously, saving the moisture inside, before setting them up to re-bake:
“The Vice Head of the Hundred Precious Guild can’t care about the difference between men and women?
“I’m the Vice Head of the Guild, does that mean you can’t think of me as a woman?”
“That makes sense.”
Jiang Ran nodded, “Head of the Yan Guild is not only a woman, but also a very beautiful woman.”
“I won’t forgive you even if you say nice things about me now.”
“Have I done anything that must be forgiven by Yan HuiHou?”
“You dragged my Hundred Precious Guild into the machinations of the Heavenly Que, you wouldn’t think that I’d forget about it just because we experienced life and death together, would you?”
“That’s not true.”
Jiang Ran probed his hand, “But earlier you and I have already said that being poor is to be alone, and being rich is to help the world.”
“Warrior Jiang, do you think I’m easy to fool?”
Yan Wushuang felt a little exasperated again as she had indeed been tricked by Jiang Ran.
From this aspect, it seemed like she did listen to being well tricked:
“Although I had some misunderstandings about Jiang Warrior earlier, but now it seems that Jiang Warrior is by no means the kind of person who is chivalrous and righteous.
“What exactly do you want to do?”
“…… Head of the Yan Association, your mouth is overly mercenary, so put it away for a while and don’t scare people.”
“……”
Yan Wushuang subconsciously rubbed his face:
“Now that you and I have fallen into the middle of such a situation, with no way to the sky and no door to the ground, why don’t we open up and talk about it?”
“I am the knife catcher.”
Jiang Ran laughed, “Can head of the Yan Club understand what a knife catcher is?”
“Naturally understand.”
Yan Wushuang frowned slightly, “So?”
“You’ve seen the Heavenly Que’s scheming this night, although it’s not completely certain that they really want to set off this heavenly storm.
“But now that they have acted several times, they all have the intention of tipping over, in the end, they still can’t be careless.
“If really let them have their way, this world of chaos, I this knife catcher, and how to settle down?”
“…… Your martial arts skills are world-class, in the midst of the chaotic world, shouldn’t it be the right time to build a career?”
Yan Wushuang looked at Jiang Ran with some surprise:
“With your skills, if this world’s chaos comes, you might be the overlord of a party.”
“That’s not what I wish for.”
Jiang Ran spoke softly, his tone was not heavy, but Yan Wushuang heard sincerity in these words.
She thought for a moment and said:
“You are the knife catcher, I am the buyer and seller.
“From this aspect, you and I really aren’t the type of people who expect the world to be in chaos.
“It is only that the knife catcher has a way of doing things in the midst of a chaotic world.
“Buying and selling in the midst of chaos is more profitable. ……
“What you don’t want may not be what I don’t want.”
“You’re going to get your head killed for that.”
Jiang Ran raised an eyebrow.
“Just saying it in private, I won’t recognize a word of it after leaving this cave.”
Yan Wushuang smiled a bit roguishly, “So, even if Heavenly Que really has some plans and wants to stir up some storm.
“You dragging me into the situation will do me a hundred harms but no good.”
“But for me, there are a hundred benefits without a single benefit.”
The corner of Jiang Ran’s mouth hooked up slightly.
“……”
Yan Wushuang more or less understood Jiang Ran’s meaning.
She mused for a moment, but then laughed:
“You underestimate my Hundred Precious Society too much, the Hundred Precious Society is the Hundred Precious Society of the Hundred Precious Society, not my Yan Wushuang’s Hundred Precious Society.
“At critical moments, one always has to be ruthless and give up the burden.”
“I don’t mind if the Hundred Precious Guild is willing to break their arms in a heroic manner.”
Jiang Ran laughed: “Anyway, will you drag into this game, this was not thought how far-reaching, just suspect that the matter of this place and the Heavenly Que has a relationship, want to borrow you Hundred Treasures will be medical only.
“Now there is a deeper benefit, I am happy to see it. As for the specific can be used to what extent …… actually do not matter, anyway, is picked up for nothing.”
“……”
Yan Wushuang fell into silence for a moment.
Finally shook his head:
“What you and I talked about just now is too vain.
“Why don’t we take advantage of the fact that we have the time now to talk about this Purple Moon Villa?”
“There is nothing to talk about the Purple Moon Villa. It’s just an idle move …… of Heavenly Que If I hadn’t been intent on it, they themselves would have only given up on it.”
Jiang Ran said:
“And the moment I fell into this trap, the whole thing, I already understood it to a tee.
“When we get out, we’ll kill the people we need to kill and do the things we need to do, and then we can set sail for the Jin Yang Mansion.
“Is head of the Yan Council …… interested in accompanying me to the Jinyang Mansion again?”
“Not going!!!”
Yan Wushuang refused without even thinking, “You don’t want to harm me again.”
The matter of the Jinyang Mansion was actually extremely secretive, even for an organization like the Hundred Treasures Society, it was impossible to figure out what was going on among them.
But tonight, Yan Wushuang had personally heard the people from Heavenly Que and Jiang Ran mention the Jinyang Mansion.
From this, it could be imagined that the Jinyang Mansion must be a place where the storm clouds converged.
And Jiang Ran, in this, also played a very important role.
It was just that Yan Wushuang did not know what this role represented.
If she and Jiang Ran showed up together in the Jinyang Mansion at this time, the position of the Hundred Treasures Society would be bound to Jiang Ran.
This was an absolute no-no!
Jiang Ran smiled:
“The Jiao Wei Qin couldn’t even tempt you?”
“It’s just a twelve heavenly coquettish …… piece to give up. How can I drag the Hundred Treasures Society to be buried with you?”
Yan Wushuang took a deep breath:
“Jiang warrior, why don’t we discuss one thing?”
“You tell me.”
“After we go out from this cave, you and I will return to the bridge, and the road will return to the road, after that, we will part ways, and no one will recognize anyone, what do you think?”
Yan Wushuang laughed: “Jiao Tail’s matter, I am bound to keep my mouth shut, even if someone comes with ten thousand gold to inquire, I will bite the bullet and not say a word, how is it?”
“No good.”
Jiang Ran shook his head categorically.
“…… Jiang warrior, you must not go too far!”
Yan Wushuang said angrily, “This matter has nothing to do with my Hundred Treasures Society, and we don’t want to get involved in it!”
“The Hundred Precious Guild is in business.”
Jiang Ran said indifferently, “The gathering of wind and clouds is certainly treacherous. But likewise, for the Hundred Treasures Society, isn’t this also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
“What’s more, the Hundred Treasures Club’s business can be so big, if there is no imperial court relationship in it ……
“Mr. Yan, do you think I would believe that?”
