Chapter 120.
“See anyone yet?”
Jiang Ran swept a glance at Li Tianxin, then skimmed this tailed seven-stringed zither in front of him.
The zither looked rather ancient, not like an unusual object.
At this moment, the seven strings of the zither were all broken.
Li Tianxin then shook her head slightly:
“Didn’t see ……”
“Where did you go just now?”
Jiang Ran asked again.
“……”
Li Tianxin stopped speaking.
Jiang Ran looked at him with some surprise:
“Can’t say?”
“Don’t want to say ……”
“Why?”
Jiang Ran raised an eyebrow, although he didn’t want to suspect Li Tianxin, but just now all the people from the four factions were present, and they were all caught up in the path.
He was the one who broke away from the battle circle, and when he was asked where he had gone, he was still unwilling to say ……
How can this make people not suspect?
At least have to say a reason …… Otherwise, it is too difficult to explain.
Li Tianxin was silent for a long time, he obviously also understood the key to this.
At the end, he looked up at the sky and spoke in a deep voice:
“Cutting down trees ……”
“?”
A flash of confusion flooded Jiang Ran’s mind.
Li Tianxin, on the other hand, slowly pulled out his blade.
The blade had quite a few openings, and there were even some that had curled up.
Above the blade, there were still a few wood shavings remaining at the corners of the openings.
Then he heard Li Tianxin say quietly:
“After …… you guys left, the Cloud Mountain Sword Sect’s people came again, and Ling is not easy to want to continue to share a victory with Huang Xuan.
“Huang Xuan naturally unafraid, the two of them show off some tongue, and then want to make a move.
“And just at this moment, Danyang Sword Sect’s people also arrived.
“Declaring that Shi Pingzhang was nearby.
“When I finished saying this, I felt a ghastly wind come over me, and my heart was filled with murderous rage.
“I know that this situation is not right, in order to avoid accidentally injuring the bystanders, this is to hurry to hide away ……
“But I didn’t realize that it was difficult to suppress this murderous aura.
“I used all my efforts, just barely maintain sanity, looking for the person who secretly shot.
“But not waiting for me to find him, that zither sound up.
“This time, I couldn’t hold on any longer.
“Drawing my sword and looking around, I only felt that the trees around me all had repulsive faces, and I hated that I couldn’t lead my sword to kill them ……”
Although the way Li Tianxin said these words with a cold face was cool.
But in Jiang Ran’s mind, he couldn’t help but picture the scene of Li Tianxin angrily treating the trees around him as enemies that he couldn’t share with anyone, and angrily slaying them……
He gently rubbed the corners of his mouth.
Li Tianxin’s eyes instantly jumped and he coldly glanced at Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran subconsciously didn’t make eye contact with him.
Just then, he heard Li Tianxin hum:
“Laugh if you want to ……”
“Hahahahahahaha !!!!”
Jiang Ran was submissive.
Li Tianxin’s face became even darker: “You’re really laughing! I’m telling you, this matter, out of my mouth, into your ears, if it’s known by a third person, you and I, there will be a death!”
“Not so much.”
Jiang Ran rubbed his face, calming his sore muscles from laughing:
“Some small thing, even if someone knows about it, you don’t have to kill yourself.”
“You!”
Li Tianxin glared at him with hatred.
There was the intention to retort, yet in terms of each other’s martial arts, it seemed as if fighting for one’s life with him was indeed no different from killing oneself.
“Since the people are gone, let’s go back.”
Jiang Ran thought for a moment and brought that tailed guqin to the end as well.
The person who played the zither just now should be Shi Pingzhang.
The one used was most likely the Messy Heart Funeral Chapter that Huang Xuan had mentioned.
Just so, this person’s martial arts, really has changed again.
In the past, the Heart Killing Demon Sticker had to be written on top of the city wall.
Now people have not yet seen, so many people present are all caught up in the way.
The ability to sneak into the night with the wind is really a bit alarming.
However, it is not all bad news.
Jiang Ran’s 30,000 taels of bounty seems to have landed.
……
……
Jiang Ran and Li Tianxin returned to Red Maple Villa.
There weren’t many people left in front of the door, only a few disciples of the four sects, as well as Luo Qingyi and Zhang Zhiying were waiting in front of the door.
Seeing the two return, Zhang Zhiying rushed to Li Tianxin’s front at the first opportunity.
Not daring to say anything, she just swept a glance at him to make sure that nothing was wrong with him, and then quietly stood behind him.
Luo Qingyi clasped his fist at Jiang Ran:
“Miss Ye invited the others to go into the Red Maple Villa first and asked me to wait for you here.”
“Good.”
Jiang Ran nodded, “Let’s go in as well.”
Stepping into the Red Maple Villa, the first thing that caught his eye was …… Qi Kai.
He was still stuck on the shadowback wall, and no one cared to snap him down for a while.
Around the shadow back wall to go inside, this courtyard depression scene, suddenly presented in front of everyone s eyes.
Withered leaves all over the ground, collapsed lamp posts, and traces of dried blood could be seen everywhere, making the entire courtyard appear to be broken and sparse.
Just as he was about to distinguish the path, he saw Fu Chengen standing in front of a corridor.
Seeing Jiang Ran he hurriedly said:
“Young warrior Jiang, come this way, everyone is waiting for you.”
Jiang Ran nodded, and Fu Cheng En currently led the way.
While walking, he said:
“The person who struck just now was Shi Pingzhang.
“We have fallen into his path, the breath in our body is difficult to round out, we have to meditate for a moment.
“When you want to go after you, Ye Sister said that there is no need to worry …… about your martial arts, Shi Pingzhang may not dare to face with you.
“This is why we entered the Red Maple Villa first, waiting here.
“Senior Sister Ye really does know Young Master Jiang well.”
Li Tianxin glanced at Fu Cheng’en as he sniffed.
Fu Chengen then felt some chills on his back shins, and was unsure why, when he heard Jiang Ran laugh:
“Brother Fu is joking, Shi Pingzhang’s accumulation over the years cannot be underestimated.
“And, as of now we have not even seen on the face, there is almost a loss.
“This person’s martial arts skills are indeed formidable.”
Fu Chengen nodded his head repeatedly at his words:
“Indeed so …….”
Between their casual conversations, they had already arrived before the main hall of Red Maple Villa.
Only the plaque on the door of this main hall was placed on the side of the door pillar.
There were three big words written on it, with iron paintings and silver hooks: Know Autumn Hall.
Seeing a leaf and knowing the fall, it was indeed in line with the mood of this Red Maple Villa.
At this time, the hall’s doors were open, and most of the disciples of the four sects were sitting in front of the Hall of Knowing Autumn, except for the few who were at the head of the hall.
Ascending to the main room, I saw Ye Jingshang sitting in the first place, looking at the field of quarrel Huang Xuan and Ling not easy, full of helplessness.
Huang Xuan and Ling Yiqiu quarreled, but there is nothing to say.
It wasn’t as gold as a three year old child.
The two were only focused on the momentary verbalization, not caring about what was said at all.
Only when they heard footsteps coming did they turn around at the same time.
Huang Xuan’s eyes instantly lit up, as if he had found a backer and said to Ling Yiqi:
“Come on, say it again!
“My brother Jiang is here, believe it or not I’ll let him beat you up!”
“Hall of Heavenly Dipper Sword, you’re really something!!!”
The corner of Ling’s mouth didn’t easily twitch, and even though he said so, he subconsciously stepped back.
He had only seen Jiang Ran strike twice.
The first time, he had received a sword from himself and Huang Xuan, and he was fine.
The second time was in front of the Red Maple Villa.
By virtue of his own strength, a finger directly broke the Chaotic Heart Burial Chapter.
In other words, his finger directly slapped the disciples of their four major sword schools on the ground.
With such martial arts, one was indeed no match.
Not to mention, nowadays, he was also favored by others.
After all, Jiang Ran had the ability to hold all of their four sect disciples down on the ground, and naturally, he also had the ability to kill them all.
Now that he didn’t kill them, he even allowed them to get rid of the entanglement of the Chaotic Heart Burial Badge.
This is grace!
Can’t not repay the great favor!
It wasn’t just Ling Yiqiu, seeing Jiang Ran come in, that ancient uncle from the Green Pine Sword Sect, as well as a middle-aged woman at the head of the Danyang Sword Sect, all stood up to greet Jiang Ran:
“Greetings, Young Warrior Jiang.”
Obviously during this time, Jiang Ran’s situation had been clarified.
Jiang Ran clasped his fists:
“You’re all welcome, quickly take a seat.”
“Big brother Jiang.”
Ye Shockfang arrived at Jiang Ran’s heels and led him to the main seat and sat down.
Jiang Ran froze:
“This is inappropriate, isn’t it?”
“There’s nothing inappropriate.”
Ye Shocking Frost said:
“Big Brother Jiang, you just sit down.”
The crowd also nodded their heads:
“Young warrior Jiang quickly take your seat.”
Seeing this, Jiang Ran no longer excused himself, so he sat down in a practical manner.
Ye Jingshuang came to the right side of the chair and sat down.
Li Tianxin, on the other hand, touched the wall and stood by it, clutching his sword, looking at the scene, his brows locked, his eyes vaguely anxious and indignant.
Zhang Zhi Hua looked at Li Tian Xin with an odd expression, and then at Jiang Ran.
Suddenly, she opened her mouth slightly, as if she had discovered something incredible.
After being stunned, her eyes were filled with a gloomy color.
Finally, she gazed at Jiang Ran for a couple of moments, lightly biting her lower lip, not knowing what she was thinking.
Luo Qingyi naturally stood behind Jiang Ran’s side.
Today’s Red Maple Villa also didn’t have any tea that could be used to entertain the guests, so Jiang Ran placed the tailed guqin on the table and said:
“Gentlemen, please take a look, can you recognize this object?”
The crowd swept a glance, most are full of confusion.
Only the middle-aged woman from the Danyang Sword Sect stood up with a frown on her face:
“This seems to be …… a hibiscus zither.”
“A hibiscus zither?”
Jiang Ran glanced at the woman.
When he had met her just now, she had also introduced herself as an elder of the Danyang Sword Sect.
Surnamed Su, her name was Su Wan Yi.
At this moment, she nodded slightly and said softly:
“The hibiscus zither is the item used by Shi Pingzhang back then.
“Among the elders of the division, there is one who has a great love for music, and in the past years, he also participated in the hanging of Shi Pingzhang.
“The only regret in his hands hibiscus fell into the broken heart rock.
“Every time I think back, I will sigh with my wrists. Subsequently also this hibiscus piano painting down …… I have the honor to see a few times, when it is with this end of the ancient piano in general.”
Jiang Ran nodded at his words.
In this way, Shi Pingzhang’s identity was considered to be solidified.
However, he heard Ling not easily laugh:
“Great.”
“Great what?”
Huang Xuan glared at him, “At your age, you’re still crazy, no wonder you’re still not as good as you were eight years ago.”
“You fart!”
“For you to smell!”
“You ……”
Ling did not easily seem like he was about to enter the established process and was about to launch into the previous set, but then he forced himself to hold back and said:
“Shi Pingzhang lost the hibiscus zither, chaotic heart funeral chapter is no longer available.
“It can be said that his martial arts are greatly reduced!
“Is this not good?”
“This ……”
Huang Xuan thought for a moment and realized that it was indeed quite good.
Only with Ling not easy to be accustomed to opposing, but is not willing to give up the opportunity so easily, immediately cold snort, is pondering to say something to be able to retrieve the scene, just to hear that ancient master uncle said:
“Do not take it lightly.
“Although the zither string is broken, it does not mean that his martial arts will be weak on what.
“And ……”
He said here with a slight lull and said to Jiang Ran:
“Where did young warrior Jiang get this zither from? Have you ever met Shi Pingzhang?”
Jiang Ran shook his head slightly and briefly explained the situation.
Master Gu frowned:
“In that case, I’m afraid it’s not good.
“Although the strings of the zither are broken, with this person’s skill, it’s not difficult to repair it.
“Why abandon this zither?
“Unless ……”
“Unless he has other better ones to replace it with?”
Jiang Ran tapped his fingertips on the back of the chair and nodded lightly after a little thought:
“This is all unspoken, and is indeed not something to be taken lightly and carelessly.
“This person’s purpose is unpredictable, and it is also difficult to say that he has really left the Red Maple Villa …… when all of you are traveling and behaving, the guru must also be careful for a moment or two.”
“Good.”
The crowd nodded their heads.
When this matter came to an end, they saw Cheng Tianyang stand up:
“Eldest Miss Ye, before, Cheng was entrusted by the One Sword Lifeless Sword Lifeless to hand over the Shattered Gold Blade to Lord Ye Zhuang.
“But I didn’t expect that the Red Maple Villa would endure this misfortune, now that Lord Ye died, this Broken Gold Knife has to be handed over to Miss Ye.”
As he spoke, he removed a box from his back.
This box has always been behind his back, never leave his body.
At this time, he brought it and handed it to Ye Jingshuang with both hands.
After Ye Jingfang pondered for a while, he took it:
“Chief Bodyguard Cheng was entrusted by a man and was loyal to him, and sent this item to Red Maple Villa from a long distance, which is really admirable.”
“Eldest Miss Ye is overstating it.”
Cheng Tianyang laughed:
“Being in the jungle, one should practice what one preaches.
“It is also the iron rule that my Tianyang Dart Bureau has always abided by.
“In the future, if Miss Ye has anything to do, you can entrust it to my Tianyang Dart Bureau.
“No matter if it’s a long way from home or across the ocean.
“But if you have something to entrust to me, I, Tianyang Dart Bureau, will never let you down!”
Jiang Ran suddenly felt that this Cheng Tianyang was really powerful, and deserved that he was able to make this Tianyang Dart Bureau the number one in the Golden Cicada.
This moment are not forget to advertise …… really is not an unusual character.
At this time Cheng Tianyang let Ye Jingshuang open the box, check whether the dart is missing.
Ye Shocking cream also do not excuse, reach out to the above package will be unlocked, and then gently pushed the box cover.
A black horizontal sword with gold carvings embedded in its sheath was slowly presented in front of people.
Ye Shockfang took a look, but did not take the knife out, instead looking towards Jiang Ran:
“Big brother Jiang, divine weapons are always gifted to heroic figures.
“This Shattered Gold Knife, let’s give it to you, I hope you won’t excuse yourself.”
Jiang Ran blinked:
“Give it to me? I this person fee knife …… three days have to go to buy, this knife fell into my hands, I am a little worried to give it cut bad.”
“That can’t be.”
Huang Xuan laughed:
“Brother Jiang does not know, this knife is a generation of sword casting master Tie Kaihe, take the sky outside the strange iron, melted gold cast.
“Inherited for so many years, from time to time in the jianghu appear.
“Through the size of the battle countless, but even to this day, has not been damaged to the knife body a little bit.
“So, Ye senior sister this some intention, you accept it.”
“Oh?”
Jiang Ran was silent for a moment, gently nodding his head as he reached out and took the blade out of the box.
Reaching out, he pressed down on the hilt of the blade and slowly drew it.
Buzz!
As the knife’s roar presented itself, a flash of golden light also quietly arose.
At that moment, Jiang Ran no longer hesitate, cross the knife out of the sheath, the blade of a show, not yet force, heard a clattering sound, not far from a chair, immediately was divided into two.
The sharpness of this blade was far better than any knife Jiang Ran had used earlier.
Of course, this was also because Jiang Ran really hadn’t used any good knives in the past.
They were all bought from the blacksmith store.
The expensive ones were no more than twenty to thirty taels, and the cheap ones could be bought for two taels of silver.
A knife of this level like the Shattered Gold Knife, not to mention using it, it was the first time I had ever seen it.
At this time to look at the body of the knife, found that the body of the knife is pitted, extremely irregular and uniform, but in the depth of the pits, but also vaguely flooded with golden light.
In the midst of the dilapidation, there was a magnificent splendor.
And the blade was indeed as Huang Xuan had said, without the slightest damage.
“It is indeed a good blade.”
Jiang Ran nodded gently, glanced at Ye Shockfang, and smiled:
“Since that’s the case, then I won’t push it any further, many thanks to Frost for sending me the precious blade.”
“Big brother Jiang, between you and me, don’t be so polite.”
Ye Shockfrost smiled gently.
The others also came to congratulate Jiang Ran on his joyous acquisition of the precious sword, it was really a joyous occasion.
Jiang Ran responded one by one for a long time before it ended.
And again, Ye Shocking Frost let everyone within the Red Maple Villa, choose a room to live at will.
The disciples of each faction, naturally, there are also the leader of each faction is responsible for, but does not need to worry about Ye Jingshuang.
Just Ye Shocking Frost can not rest assured that Shi Miao, want to go to see.
Jiang Ran was a little surprised to hear this:
“She hasn’t woken up yet?”
Those other people had long since woken up and were still able to run to the door of Zhiqiu Hall to bask in the sun.
Timiao’s martial arts were far above theirs, but instead, she was not easy to wake up, but she didn’t know what the reasoning was?
Immediately after a little bit of organizing, he went with Ye Jingshuang to see.
Entering the door, he saw Su Wan Yi sitting in front of the bed, looking at the unconscious Shi Miao gently sighing.
Looking up to see Jiang Ran and Ye Jingfang arrive, she immediately got up:
“Miss Ye, Young Scholar Jiang.”
After greeting each other, Jiang Ran then looked at Shi Miao:
“Still no sign of waking up?”
“No. ……”
Su Wan Yi shook her head.
Ye Jingshang glanced at Jiang Ran, who understood her meaning, so he took Shi Miao’s wrist and gently probed it.
It felt like she had plenty of internal energy and didn’t have the slightest bit of injuries or illnesses in her body.
For a moment, his brows were furrowed.
Su Wan Yi said softly:
“Young warrior Jiang shouldn’t make things difficult for himself either, Shi Pingzhang’s martial arts are straight to the heart.
“Timiao’s nature is simple, and after that, the only thing that makes the heart is the sword, it is the purest of all.
“Perhaps it is precisely because of this, let her heart sword dust, this is not wake up it ……”
Jiang Ran slowly nodded, since there were no injuries on his body, the only possibility was what Su Wan Yi said.
He sighed softly:
“Since this is the case, then we have no choice but to wait.
“Miss Shi is still quick to wake up so that she can follow me and your Senior Sister Ye and go out to kill people.”
As these words were uttered, Shi Miao’s fingertips suddenly moved.
Everyone present saw this scene and looked at each other for a moment.
Jiang Ran was also somewhat stunned:
“You reacted at the mention of killing? Are you a homicidal maniac?”
“Kill who?”
Timiao suddenly opened his mouth and slowly spat out two words.
Immediately followed by his eyes slowly opening, his eyes shallow with killing intent.
“Thousand Streams Villa …… up and down.”
Jiang Ran said, “Red Maple Villa was emptied by them, and Qi Kai died in my hands. Thousand Streams Villa, regardless of whether or not they can stop, when this news comes back, I’m afraid they won’t be honestly waiting for death at home.
“So, we have to go out early so that we can kill and set fire.”
