A+ A- Turn Off Light

The Eldest Princess was angry for a moment.

Then she really honestly took Jiang Ran to the Golden Cicada Secret Vault.

The so-called Golden Cicada Secret Vault was actually a treasure trove.

After all, the Golden Cicada built the country for many years, always a bit of family background, which of these family background is worth a lot of money, can not be placed at random, and finally packed up here to hide.

Then send heavy guards, ordinary people can not come in.

The Princess came in alone, of course, without any problem.

But with the addition of Jiang Ran …… then there is some trouble.

Although Jiang Ran is on the side of the Golden Cicada Prince of Heaven nowadays, he can run amok.

But the Golden Cicada Heavenly Prince still doesn’t know Jiang Ran’s identity as the young master of this demonic religion, and the matter of the Rapunzel leading him to the Golden Cicada’s secret storehouse, if he knows about it, it’s very likely that it will lead to trouble.

Therefore, the two people are divided into one light and one dark, the Princess went in openly, and Jiang Ran followed quietly with the [Subtle Shadow Fascinating God Steps].

Now the day is still early, the Princess wants to travel, naturally, it is not possible to be a person single-handedly.

There should be a row around or must have.

Therefore, after tossing and turning for a while, and seeing that it was almost noon, a group of people came to the so-called Golden Cicada Secret Vault.

And Jiang Ran thought differently, the Golden Cicada secret library is not in the palace.

Instead, it was on the outskirts of the palace.

The Rapunzel’s car had just stopped, and the door to the secret vault had already been opened.

A middle-aged man jogged all the way to the front, and from afar, he had already knelt down:

“My humble servant Kou Xun, see the Eldest Princess.

“I didn’t know that the Eldest Princess had arrived and hadn’t prepared in advance, please punish the Eldest Princess.”

“Freedom.”

The Eldest Princess waved her hand:

“Just go about your business by yourself, this palace will go in and take a look by itself.”

“Yes.”

Kou Xun was the guard of the secret vault, how dare he say anything else when he heard this?

Immediately got up, did not dare to really retreat, just followed from afar.

Only occasionally did his brows knit slightly, looking around, his eyes somewhat puzzled.

Rapunzel looked at him:

“What’s wrong?”

“Ah, nothing.”

Kou Xun bowed:

“It may be that I am suspicious, always feeling as if there are curiosities hiding around.

“But upon closer inspection, I couldn’t find any.”

“Hmm.”

The eldest princess sniffed and no longer looked at him, her eyes turned to the direction of the secret vault, faintly opened her mouth:

“It’s good to do your duty.”

After saying that, she did not say any more.

She is the eldest princess, where can she be like a chatterbox, rambling with others every day?

The honor that the royal family should have, she also had to have.

In fact, other than in front of Jiang Ran, she had never been full of pomp and circumstance, otherwise, as a woman, even if she was the First Princess, would she be able to achieve what she was doing now?

Kou Xun, on the other hand, was overjoyed and thanked the Eldest Princess for her praise.

Immediately followed behind the Princess, ready to listen to orders.

After a few turns, he came to a place where he hid books, paintings, words, and secret letters from the past.

Arriving here, the eldest princess waved her hand:

“Go down.”

Kou Xun knew that this was not the same as the one at the door.

At this time, if he still followed, it would be counterproductive.

At that moment, he hurriedly agreed and turned to leave.

Of course, he did not dare to go too far …… If the Princess has any orders and shouts but does not come to the person, then I am afraid that there will only be a killing disaster.

After waiting for this Kou Xun to go, the eldest princess said in a low voice:

“Come out.”

After speaking, but did not wait for the echo.

Looking around, Jiang Ran did not appear.

Her heart immediately tightened, could it be that this Kou Xun was too sharp, or that this treasure trove was too strict, Jiang Ran didn’t follow him in?

The things in the treasure trove, one can come in and look at them as one pleases.

But if you want to take it out, you have to keep a register.

This is the rule, even the eldest princess can not break.

This makes the Rapunzel a little difficult …… Just as she was torn, she heard a voice coming from one side:

“What is the origin of this Kou Xun?”

The Rapunzel was so scared that she got goosebumps.

Suddenly turned around, and saw Jiang Ran was standing on the side, looking out in the direction that Kou Xun had just left.

Unable to resist, she reached out and then slapped Jiang Ran on the chest:

“Are you going to die? What good will it do you to scare the Palace to death?”

“You can worry less.”

Jiang Ran replied frankly.

“…… Then this palace is really thank you, except for father’s life for this palace from worrying, these years no one has ever worried for this palace.”

“Hmm?”

Jiang Ran thought for a moment:

“I treat you as a friend …… you originally treat me as a father ……”

These words were just too edgy for the eldest princess.

She stared wide-eyed, unable to accept this ethical joke for a moment.

Until Jiang Ran casually picked up a painting and opened it, she then woke up as if in a dream and gritted her teeth:

“Just based on that one sentence you just said, it’s enough to execute your nine clans ten times!!!”

“Eldest Princess feel free to do as you please, well, who painted this? So ugly?”

“…… Nonsense, don’t talk nonsense if you don’t know, okay? This is everyone’s masterpiece, just this one painting, ten thousand gold is hard to exchange.”

Jiang Ran skimmed his mouth and casually threw the painting to the side:

“Where’s the letter you mentioned?”

“Here.”

The Rapunzel led Jiang Ran, to a corner, and casually pressed her hand on the wall, and suddenly a dark door opened on the wall:

“Here are all the secret letters that passed back then, and I don’t know why, but they were packed up here.

“In fact, this palace thinks, these things all have no need to keep ……

“Hm? Someone has been here?”

She said and glanced at Jiang Ran.

“How can I see that?”

Jiang Ran raised his eyebrows slightly.

“Before this palace left, it had made some markings on the things over here, and now that the markings have changed, it’s obvious that someone has come here and seen the things here.”

The Eldest Princess spoke here with a pensive expression:

“These letters and secret letters have been placed here for many long years.

“Although they are hidden in a dark compartment, when this Palace came here last time, a layer of fine ash had also fallen on them.

“It can be seen that it has been a long time since anyone took care of it.

“It doesn’t make sense that after this Palace came, someone suddenly and diligently ran over to clean it up.”

Jiang Ran nodded slightly:

“Then there are probably only two possibilities ……”

“Tell me.”

The eldest princess turned back to Jiang Ran.

Then she heard Jiang Ran say:

“The first possibility is because of you.

“You are the Eldest Princess, nothing to run to the treasury to see these aged letters, that Kou Xun found out about this, thought you have certain quirks, in order to facilitate your next time to come over to see not to get a handful of dust.

“So it rushed to clean up a bit.”

“That’s impossible.”

Rapunzel shook her head:

“They can clean the exotic treasures here, and to prevent the paintings from getting worms and fading colors or something like that, they also have a duty of care.

“But the organs hidden in the dark compartments, they don’t have the right to open them.

“And look ……”

She said and took out a letter and handed it to Jiang Ran:

“The dust on this is still there.”

“Hmm.”

Jiang Ran nodded, glancing at the dust on his fingertips and said:

“Since they don’t have the right to open the secret compartment, those who are able to open this secret compartment, I’m only afraid that there aren’t many people.

“Then the second possibility is that someone knows that you have come to see these letters, and understands that you are investigating the matter of that year,” he said.

“So came over and wanted to take away the letter ……

“Well, no, you first say that letter in what place?”

“It’s in this box.”

The Rapunzel said, going to take a black box that was placed in the middle of a dark compartment.

Jiang Ran, however, pressed her hand:

“And stay.”

“Hmm?”

“Since someone has been here and the box is still there, what if this person has tampered with the box?”

Jiang Ran said and felt around his body, then felt empty.

“What are you looking for?”

“Deerskin gloves ……”

Jiang Ran sighed:

“Walking the rivers and lakes lately has rarely used this item.

“I think I forgot about it when I changed my clothes last time ……”

As he said this, he slowly probed out his palm.

As soon as the palm force started, the box suddenly flew out from the dark compartment with a whistling sound and went straight to Jiang Ran’s palm.

Jiang Ran’s force turned, and the box suddenly spun in the air.

Then it slowly fell to the ground.

He saw Jiang Ran reach into his pocket and took out a small bottle, spilling out some powder and pouring it onto the box.

The eldest princess silently watched Jiang Ran’s maneuver and was about to ask what it was for.

Just then, she saw a layer of black gas suddenly arise on the box.

“This is ……”

The Eldest Princess was taken aback, “Is it really poisonous?”

“Highly toxic.”

Jiang Ran said:

“The thing I used can test whether or not poison is coated on top of the item.

“The reactions are white, yellow and black respectively.

“White is the lightest, and the toxin is not strong.

“Yellow is moderate, yet it can already put people to death.

“The black color is the strongest …… The person who is hit is almost hopeless!”

The Rapunzel’s face was a bit ugly:

“This is not used against you …… this is used against this palace.”

Jiang Ran nodded:

“That’s right, you are still somewhat self-aware.”

“Can …… you speak properly to this palace.”

The Eldest Princess gave Jiang Ran a somewhat complaining look:

“This palace was almost about to be killed just now.”

Jiang Ran, however, shook his head and flew out a finger, the box shook, and the lid opened at once.

Inside was a letter properly placed.

“The letter is still there!”

The Eldest Princess’ eyes lit up.

Jiang Ran smiled:

“Since the person who applied the poison did so in order to kill you, it doesn’t matter if the letter is there or not.

“After all, you’ve already copied the letter down, and even if it’s not there, it can’t do anything other than cause suspicion between you and me.

“And if you play this type of tactic too much, it will be ineffective instead.”

Speaking of this, he did as he had done and sprinkled the powder on top of the envelope again.

This time there was no change.

Jiang Ran, however, did not fully believe …… that there were too many means above this Jianghu.

The so-called hundred poisons are invulnerable, and there is no way to be sure that you will not be hit by that one hundred and one poison.

The poison detecting powder Jiang Ran used was from the Hundred Poisons Sect’s Hundred Poisons Sutra.

But who could be sure if this thing could really detect a hundred poisons?

So after Jiang Ran hesitated for a moment, he still couldn’t reach out to take it.

When the eldest princess looked at his appearance, she knew what was in his mind, and after hesitating for a moment, she said:

“Why don’t you let this palace do it, if this palace is poisoned, you will save me.”

Said, reaching out to get it.

Jiang Ran, however, stopped her again.

The eldest princess looked up at him:

“Now that the trust between you and I is in question, this palace wants you to trust me, there is only this one way.”

Jiang Ran raised his eyebrows slightly:

“My trust is important to you?”

The eldest princess nodded seriously:

“Incredibly important!”

Jiang Ran smiled:

“Don’t be in a hurry first, I suddenly remembered that I still have a good thing on me.”

He said as he took out a pair of silver silk gloves from his bosom.

“Hmm?”

Rapunzel looked at the gloves and smiled:

“Oddly good looking, doesn’t look like something a man would wear, you still have this kind of fetish?”

Jiang Ran blankly glanced at her and put these gloves on himself:

“Long hair and short knowledge, you think this is an ordinary glove?”

“Then what is this?”

“Star picking hand.”

“Twelve Heavenly Craftsmanship’s Star Picking Hands?”

The Rapunzel’s eyes suddenly lit up.

Only then did she remember that Jiang Ran had said that he had met someone from the Blood Cicada last night.

There were many experts among the Blood Cicada who had treasures on the Twelve Heavenly Coincidences, and it was really a matter of course for Jiang Ran to be able to obtain this Star Picking Hand.

The Star Picking Hand, being a work of Wind and Fire Lashan, was ranked as one of the Twelve Heavenly Coincidences.

In itself, it has the efficacy of being invulnerable to fire and water, and invulnerable to swords and spears, so the poison is naturally not a problem.

Jiang Ran reached out and took out the letter.

Opening it casually, the words on it were indeed the same as what the Princess had said to herself.

Jiang Ran closed his eyes and put the letter back.

“See? This palace didn’t lie to you!”

The Eldest Princess felt herself raise her eyebrows a bit.

Jiang Ran, on the other hand, smiled:

“This doesn’t mean anything …… Maybe, this box was originally arranged by you, and this poison was placed by you to deal with me.”

“!!!”

The Rapunzel’s eyes widened:

“If I wanted to harm you, why did I go through all this trouble?”

“Because it was two plans.”

Jiang Ran said:

“I can even make a reasonable guess ……

“Your original plan was to want to have an encounter with me, be it sentient or in love.

“Wanting to use this to get closer to me so that you could use me for something.

“However, I am, after all, the Young Exalt of the Demon Sect.

“You also worry that I followed you back to the capital in order to investigate what happened twenty years ago.

“And in this matter, the Golden Cicada Dynasty is bound to be involved. Once I am taught the details of that year, it is highly likely that you will be exposed to danger.

“Therefore, if I were to seriously investigate, I should be the only one to die.

“That’s why you applied a strong poison on this box and then led me here …… wanting to use this poison to kill me.”

The Rapunzel bit her lip while listening.

Even though she had been strong all her life, at this moment, hearing Jiang Ran say this, a layer of water mist rose in her eyes.

Under the impulse, she gritted her teeth and said:

“Yes, all of it was done by this palace!

“This palace put poison on this box just to kill you, this son of a bitch,” he said!

“Now this palace’s treacherous plan has failed, you have gained insight into all the plots and tricks …… Come on, you come to kill me!”

“You scold me ……”

“What’s wrong with me scolding you? I also want to bite you!!!”

The Rapunzel said, even when she really rushed over and grabbed Jiang Ran’s arm and bit it hard.

It seems that she is still not relieved of her hatred, but also wants to take her foot and kick it, kicking and cursing at the same time:

“I kick you to death this heartless bastard!!!”

Jiang Ran cried and laughed for a moment, naturally, he did not put this set of fancy fists and kicks of the Rapunzel in his eyes.

He casually held her down, reached out and directly picked her up, and by the time she landed, she was already carried on Jiang Ran’s shoulders.

Reaching out, he slapped her on the ass:

“It’s just reasonable speculation, it’s not really you, what’s the rush?”

“This palace has done so many things for you, and you still suspect that this palace wants to harm you …… How can this palace not be anxious?”

The eldest princess said angrily:

“I know it was wrong of me to hide it from you earlier …… But, in your place, would you not have hidden it?

“This palace has also not seen you tell me the truth immediately after meeting me.

“Even if you and I became familiar with each other later, you did not tell me your true identity.

“Has the Palace ever blamed you for this?

“Now it’s good, you not only blame me, but also suspect me ……”

“Okay, shut up.”

“Just don’t shut up!”

Jiang Ran reached out and slapped again:

“Shut up or not?”

“No!”

Jiang Ran continued to hit, and asked after a single hit:

“Do you live or not?”

The Princess fully embodied what is called hardcore, let Jiang Ran’s slaps fall like rain, hard to grit her teeth and did not stop talking.

Do not know how many times, Jiang Ran turned his head, suddenly found that the Princess face red, eyes moist, although said ‘do not stop talking’, but the voice is soft and sticky, no longer half a point of toughness.

The corner of Jiang Ran’s mouth twitched:

“You …… you should not still enjoy it?”

“Not living …… ah? What did you say? Not fighting?”

Rapunzel looked around blankly.

Jiang Ran reached out and put her down:

“Are you a pervert?”

“Pervert?”

Rapunzel looked confused.

“Forget it…… not cheap.”

Jiang Ran gently let out a breath, and the Rapunzel rubbed her butt and was silent as well.

The two people looked at me and I looked at you, then they heard Jiang Ran say:

“Actually, this matter was not on my mind.”

“!!!”

The eldest princess looked at Jiang Ran with violently wide eyes.

Didn’t take it to heart, and you still beat me? And beat me for so long?

Now that your ass has been beaten into twenty-four flaps for you, you say you didn’t take it to heart?

So you were just playing around?

Jiang Ran then said:

“Just as you said, what you can understand, I can naturally understand as well.

“Moreover, from the very beginning, I have already sensed something.

“Just Princess acting is too good, I have not been seized to the actual evidence.

“Now the blood cicadas from the middle of this stirring, but can call you and me to open up.

“However, I have to advise you first …… want to use me to do things, can not be so easy.”

“…… I certainly know.”

Rapunzel muttered:

“Right now, we are merely both acting for our own purposes.

“When the day comes that you and I have conflicting goals.

“it will be time for us to go our separate ways.

“You’re surrounded by countless confidants, you’ll never change your purpose for me.

“I know all these things.”

She looked up at Jiang Ran as she said this:

“However, I also know another thing.

“If the Demon Sect is in your hands, it will inevitably not be the Demon Sect of the past.

“The Demon Sect will not once again stir up a monstrous storm, much less cause chaos in this Jianghu.

“Even if there are people with monstrous ambitions, they will be suppressed by you.

“To me, this is enough.”
