Chapter 435.

The group of people in front of him who were planning to capture the ‘Rapunzel’ heard someone open his voice to stop them.

Immediately, they burst into a rage:

“What kind of person dares to harbor the Golden Cicada Eldest Princess?

“Could it also be the Golden Cicada Thieves?”

“What a Golden Cicada thieving bandit.”

This time, it was a girl’s voice that came.

And as her voice arrived, a group of people soon appeared in front of Jiang Ran and the others.

It was a group of young men who were dressed as scholars.

The men stood with long bodies, holding scrolls.

The woman had a cool temperament and hung a short sword at her waist.

Although the women were not wearing scholar’s robes, the dress styling was similar to the men’s.

It could be seen that they were from the same family.

The group of people who stopped Jiang Ran immediately changed their faces:

“Disciples of the Xuanji Academy ……

“Let’s go.”

Saying that, he was about to leave when he heard the voice of the man who had previously shouted coldly:

“Stay.”

The gang’s footsteps lurched, and the leader of the group looked up and gazed at the disciples of the Xuanji Academy:

“What do you …… intend to do?”

“A good one is what you intend to do.”

The scholar who had opened his mouth to speak was seen taking a step forward, his face compassionate:

“Some days ago we had already heard that someone was pretending to capture the Golden Cicada Elder Princess and practicing roadblock robbery.

“The young scholar was still in disbelief earlier.

“As the saying goes, when the country is in trouble, how can someone be so ungrateful, at this time of survival, and still do this kind of perverse behavior.

“But I don’t want to, actually really witnessed!

“You just said …… who is the eldest princess?”

Jiang Ran smiled at the words, and immediately raised his hand in a hurry:

“I, I, I, he said that I am the Eldest Princess.”

“You shut up!!!”

The boss of the roadblocker immediately glared at Jiang Ran.

Following that, he looked at the disciples of the Xuanji Academy and grinned:

“This, perhaps, is a misunderstanding.

“The party’s eyes were blurred …… not intending to recognize the mistake.

“I also ask this little brother to forgive me.”

“Is that so?”

I saw a girl standing out behind that scholar, taking out a scroll from her sleeve and slowly opening it:

“On the third day of last month, the western mountain pass of the imperial capital, you and others killed fourteen people, and the plundering of property also sprinted to control.

“On the seventh day of the first month, ten miles outside of Majiatun, still you people, hard to say that a girl in the caravan from the Autumn Leaves, is the Rapunzel.

“Hard to take people away, dared to block the person, by you guys on the spot beheaded, dead a total of five people.

“The following day, the girl’s mutilated body was found in the middle of a dry well in Ma Jiatun.

“Is this also a misunderstanding?

“Not only that …… on the fifteenth day of last month, in the Little Cui Forest, three caravans passed by there.

“But all died tragically on the spot, one hundred and twenty-five corpses, all were hung on the tree.

“This matter, is also a misunderstanding?”

“Nonsense! We didn’t do what happened in Xiao Cui Lin!!!”

The more the leader listened, the more his heart sank.

Until he heard this last one, he really couldn’t help but open his mouth to retort.

Only after these words were uttered, they were replaced with a cold laugh:

“So, the previous two things, were they really done by you guys?

“Well well well, rivers and mountains have talents in their generations …… all of you are all talented.

“Both so, that all over the green mountain burial white bone, you and so on will long sleep in this green mountain green water between good.”

The words fell a shake of the hand, behind the many Xuanji Academy disciples have jumped up, towards this group of people killed over.

“Fight them!!!”

The man at the head broke off and drew his sword first towards the opposite scholar.

However, he did not want the blade to land, but it chopped on a section of the sleeve.

And even the sleeve did not cut, only feel the force fell, all empty, not at all.

Want to draw back the knife, but only feel the blade seems to be stuck in the mire, want to draw back is also powerless.

In his heart, he was horrified, and then he saw the scholar holding a scroll and smashing it hard.

Only heard a bang, that the leader of the bandits, directly to the smash a brain burst.

“Let you and the others also experience what is the weight of the Book Mountain.”

The Xuanji Academy’s gang of people, out to meet the enemy with not what weapons, in addition to the women more than a short sword, the men out, using all the books in the hand.

Don’t know what this book is in the end what thing to make out of, a smash a quasi.

Knock on the injury, touch on the death.

However, in a moment’s time, this group of people had already died all over the place.

Only then did the head scholar of the Xuanji Academy shake off the blood on his books and came to Jiang Ran and the others.

Cupping his fists, he said:

“All of you are frightened.”

Jiang Ran felt that he was indeed a bit frightened.

Rather than being scared by this gang of thieves and bandits, it is really the first time to see people kill with a book smash.

Immediately a smile:

“Many thanks to all of you good men to save.”

“Do not dare, we are just a group of unarmed students, just, on the battlefield against the enemy, often by virtue of a cavity of righteousness.”

The man at the head said while his eyes swept over Jiang Ran and the others one by one.

Suddenly, he asked:

“There are quite a number of you, men and women, old and young, why are you walking in the middle of this wild road in the middle of the deserted mountains if you don’t take the official road properly?”

Princess Xiyue heard this and immediately pinched a sweat, not for herself, but for the opposite side of this gang of scholars.

This question was exited, obviously suspicious.

But really suspecting on Jiang Ran’s words …… that is absolutely seeking death.

Don’t look at this gang of scholars just dealt with the group of thieves and bandits, seems to be brave and invincible.

But if they really face Jiang Ran …… then they will know what it means to have no power.

This way, the journey is not short.

She is really recognize Jiang Ran.

Don’t look at this person smiling every day, as if he can chat with anyone.

He can laugh with you one second as if he was a long lost blood brother, and the next second he can kill this blood brother alive, and then pour on the strength of the province, so that he mixed into the soil, anyone can not see that there was once a big living person here.

While thinking about those images that made her feel horrified, Jiang Ran had already smiled and said:

“Truth be told, nowadays the Jianghu is in chaos, and the official road is not safe either.

“We have something want to go to the imperial capital, do not dare to break into, can only walk in the wilderness secluded place, take a chance ……

“But I did not expect to still narrowly suffered a poisoned hand.

“If it is not that all of you came in time …… I am afraid that all of you have already died for a long time.”

Princess Xi Yue in her heart dead spit Jiang Ran this is simply farting.

What died for a long time?

It was clearly the other party who had been dead for a long time!

However, when her thoughts reached here, she suddenly realized that Jiang Ran had also left himself a way out in his words …… He only said that he had been dead for a long time, but didn’t say who had been dead for a long time!

This traitor ah.

Every sentence has a mystery, and must not be disposed of lightly.

In fact along the way, Princess Xiyue not only experienced the horror of Jiang Ran’s martial arts as a human being, but his people’s intelligence and wisdom also made her secretly alarmed.

She always felt that those who went against him would never have a good ending.

Even let her have an impulse, is to want to hurry back to report to the father, never and the Golden Cicada for the enemy.

The last name of the river is forced to hurry, he really dares to rush into the autumn leaves, her poor father, alive in the dragon chair.

Then disguise as his father is natural death, anyone can not find out the clues.

“I see.”

That scholar from the Xuanji Academy nodded slightly:

“In recent days, the Jianghu is indeed getting more and more chaotic.

“While the Golden Cicada is pressing forward step by step, Autumn Leaf has an inexplicable attitude.

“Although my Qing Kingdom is not powerless to fight against the hand, it has lost its head start, causing it to fall behind step by step.

“What’s even more detestable is that there are quite a few people in the jianghu, favoring this kind of crisis moment when the country is in trouble, secretly poisoning their own people.

“It can be described as despicable!

“Your choice to avoid the official road is quite reasonable ……”

At this point in his speech, he gave a slight beat:

“However, there is still a need to verify yourselves!

“At this point, please forgive me, brother.”

“Identify yourself?”

Jiang Ran raised his eyebrows slightly:

“What does that mean? Are you all government officials?”

“Nonetheless.”

The woman who had helped earlier stepped forward and laughed:

“We are not officials, but jianghu characters.

“So we act more recklessly …… but you can rest assured that we will never harm the innocent.

“As long as the identification of the body, you and so on are not the people with ulterior motives disguise, I and other Jianghu personally escort you, to the imperial capital.”

As the words fell, she waved her hand, and instantly those Xuanji Academy disciples who had just killed all the thieves and bandits surrounded Jiang Ran’s group again.

Jiang Ran sighed in his heart.

This group of them couldn’t help checking ah.

The slightest carelessness would lead to the discovery of the end.

After all, not everyone knew his Autumn Water Ice Condensation Skill or Tang Yuyi’s Tianji Duiwei Great Transformation Technique.

If this group of people really want to check …… then there is only one downfall.

Just as he thought of this, he suddenly raised his eyebrows slightly.

Immediately followed by a voice came:

“Stop!!!”

This scene, how is it déjà vu?

The scholar at the head of the Xuanji Academy furrowed his brows slightly, listening to this voice but feeling somewhat familiar.

In a flash, he saw a hand arrive with a whoosh.

He subconsciously probed his hand and grabbed it, the two palms exchanged hands, and a silhouette swiftly arrived in front of him.

By the time he stood still, the flying hand had returned to his wrist.

This person was covered in green, with a masked scarf on his face, on which was written a large ‘wood’ character.

“Good boy, it’s only been a few days since I’ve seen you, your martial arts have grown more and more.”

The visitor laughed, his posture relaxed.

“Uncle Zhen?”

The scholar froze:

“Why are you here?”

Jiang Ran blinked:

“True master uncle? Do you have a fake uncle?”

This was meant to be a tease, but he didn’t expect the scholar to nod his head seriously:

“That’s right, I also have a Master Jia, how do you know that?”

“Because he and I ah, are considered old friends.”

The visitor said with a smile:

“Just call him …… Uncle Jiang.”

“……”

Jiang Ran’s face darkened a bit as he glanced at this Hundred Wood Sect member.

After these many hours apart, he thought that even if he encountered it again in the future, it wouldn’t be possible so quickly, but he didn’t expect that this hadn’t even reached the capital yet, and this bastard had already chased after him.

Moreover, just come, come up and send a great nephew over?

What kind of gift is this?

That scholar from the Xuanji Academy was also a bit embarrassed:

“Senior Uncle Zhen don’t joke, this brother and I are not a few years apart ……”

“When did the seniority ranking in the jianghu begin to be based on age?”

The Hundred Wood Sect man grunted:

“To calculate age, there isn’t a difference of a few years between you and me. What, are you going to call me Big Brother Zhen?”

“This …… is not the same thing.”

The man cried and laughed:

“The Hundred Wood Sect and my Xuanji Academy are friends, but he is not from the Hundred Wood Sect.”

“But he and I are familiar with each other, we treat each other as brothers, what, are you disowning him, or are you not going to recognize me?”

The Hundred Wood Sect man grunted, then put an arm around the scholar’s neck and whispered in his ear:

“Listen to the words of the master uncle, can the master uncle still harm you?

“Recognize this uncle, and your benefits will be inexhaustible.”

Jiang Ran’s face darkened:

“Who taught you to conspire out loud, I heard everything.”

Uncle Zhen didn’t even look at Jiang Ran, he just patted the scholar’s shoulder.

Although the scholar was helpless, yet the other party’s seniority was greater than his own, now he could only listen honestly, bashfully bowing to Jiang Ran:

“Uncle Jiang ……”

The remaining Xuanji Academy disciples, you look at me, I look at you, senior brother has shouted uncle, what can they do?

Then Jiang Ran joyfully brought up a whole bunch of great nieces and nephews.

The corners of Jiang Ran’s mouth twitched as he looked at the Hundred Wood Sect person.

That person smiled at Jiang Ran, of course, only the voice could be seen not the face:

“Brother Jiang, long time no see, are you still well?”

“For the time being, I’m still alive.”

Jiang Ran exhaled:

“Just now, I thought I had to be forcibly examined.”

“Hahaha, don’t worry, he wouldn’t dare.”

Uncle Zhen patted the scholar’s shoulder and said:

“This kid’s surname is Chen, called Chen Mu.

“Although he’s not very old, he’s still considered a number one in the Xuanji Academy.

“In the future, you can order him for anything, it’s definitely good.”

“……”

Chen Mu wanted to protest that he wasn’t being used to be used at will.

However, under the suppression of Hundred Wood Sect’s Uncle Zhen, there was nothing he could do.

He could only nod his head with a bitter smile:

“If Uncle Jiang has something to do, feel free to order me ……”

“Good.”

Jiang Ran wasn’t polite either.

“……”

Chen Mu’s face darkened, suddenly feeling that it wasn’t unreasonable for Jiang Ran to be able to stink with Uncle Zhen.

“Alright, this is not the place to talk.”

This one from the Hundred Wood Sect looked around:

“Let’s change a place to talk carefully …… Speaking of which, your kid just narrowly escaped a big trouble, if he bumped into a nobleman, I’m afraid this matter will be difficult to settle.”

“Nobleman?”

Chen Mu was slightly stunned, where did the nobleman come from?

In his heart, he was skeptical, but he still led the way.

They hadn’t been walking around this neighborhood for a day or two, otherwise how could they have collected such a complete collection of evidence against people?

There were naturally places for them to land around here.

Soon the crowd arrived in a cave.

Only the cave was cold, except for the traces of bonfire, there was no utensils.

Jiang Ran saw that it was almost time, so he let Luo Qingyi live to cook.

Watching Luo Qingyi skillfully take out the pots and pans and start washing and shuffling, a group of young people from Xuanji Academy flocked up.

With an expectant face, they watched Luo Qingyi display her skills.

Jiang Ran glanced at them in wonder, then asked that Senior Uncle Zhen:

“What’s wrong with them?”

“Hahaha, you have no idea.”

Uncle Zhen laughed and said:

“This bunch of readers have a lot of rules and a lot of stinky problems.

“You should have heard of what is food is not too fine braising is not too fine, and there is even the so-called gentleman far from the kitchen.”

When Jiang Ran heard ‘a gentleman is far from a cook’, then he couldn’t help but think of Abandon Heavenly Moon.

Immediately dumbfounded.

Then he heard Senior Uncle Zhen say:

“That’s why, when they go out, they don’t make their own fires to cook.

“They all bring dry food and swallow hard down on wild fruits.

“Look at them one by one, the men are clear and elegant, the women are slim right? All of them are hungry.”

“Reasonable!!!”

Jiang Ran really didn’t know what to say other than these two words.

Going out, it was obvious that they couldn’t care less about that preaching that food is not too fine and braising is not too fine, and it would be good to have a bite to eat.

But they can’t cook yet ……

So, starving out a good figure?

After Jiang Ran cried and laughed, he looked at this Master Zhen:

“Speaking of which, so far I don’t know what your name is.”

“Zhen Cheng.”

“…… Seriously?”

“What’s the point of lying to you?”

“That name sounds like a lie then.”

Jiang Ran looked helplessly at this Zhen Cheng:

“How’s Quit Delusion?”

“Still alive.”

Zhen Cheng said:

“He was picked up by the monks of the Da Fan Zen Academy, and left this matter of finding you to me.”

As he said this, he suddenly peeked around and asked in a low voice:

“You killed them, didn’t you?”

Jiang Ran’s eyes narrowed slightly, followed by a slow nod:

“Precisely.”

“…… That’s scary.”

Zhen Cheng shrank back:

“You don’t even pretend a bit in front of me anymore?”

“At that time you pretended to be unconscious, lying there should hear should not hear all heard, now pretend, there is a point?”

Jiang Ran smiled faintly:

“You should also know that if I was willing, you would have already died.”

“……”

Zhen Cheng had nothing to say to this.

A single Winning Divine Blade made it difficult for him to live or die, yet the Winning Divine Blade was like a three year old urchin in front of this person.

Looking at the entire Green Country Jianghu, he couldn’t even think of anyone who could fight against this Jiang Ran in front of him.

Thinking of this, he sighed:

“The Great Brahma Zen Academy and my Hundred Wood Sect are of the same righteous path.

“According to the position, I should speak out about this matter now and lead this group of people from the Xuanji Academy ……”

“Die together?”

“…… Don’t say it so bluntly.”

Zhen Cheng was helpless:

“We’re not made of clay either, how can we die like this?

“But it has to be said that …… over the years, the Great Brahma Zen Academy has become more and more unaware of change.

“Gradually, it does not distinguish between good and bad.

“Those you let me see, I have not said a word to the preceptor.

“Only because, you came back that night.

“and, at the critical moment, did not take my life.

“This shows that you are by no means a malicious person.

“If this all makes you must have a reason to kill …… then I think, only may be they have to seek death.”

“The people of the Hundred Wood Sect are all as understanding as you are?”

Jiang Ran smiled:

“I hope you won’t regret what you did today.”

“I’m a person who never regrets what I do.”

Just as Zhen Cheng’s words reached this point, he saw Chen Mu walking over holding an altar:

“What are you guys talking about? What never regret?

“By the way, Uncle Zhen, what was the matter with the nobleman you mentioned earlier?”

He said as he put the altar down, and an aroma of wine immediately rushed into Jiang Ran’s nose.

And after Zhen Cheng glanced at Jiang Ran, he didn’t see any objections from him and said:

“Brother Jiang has been escorting Princess Xi Yue of Autumn Leaves all this way to the Imperial Capital to discuss joining forces against the Golden Cicada.”

“What! Princess Xi Yue!?”

Chen Mu’s eyes widened violently:

“Wasn’t she already killed by that evil thief Jiang Ran?”

Princess Xi Yue also turned around in shock at his words:

“This Palace is dead?”
