Chapter 323.
Zhao Chen felt that he had about met a psychopath.
Inexplicably, he came to the door and said that the sword technique he practiced was taught by his master ……
And listening to his tone, it seemed like he couldn’t even be sure himself.
What is this if not a psychopath?
So he turned around and left at that time.
That young man didn’t come after him either.
It was a relief for Zhao Chen, and as a result, the next day he went to the place where he practiced his sword as usual, intending to continue his bitter training.
Then he saw that young man still there.
And it was still in the same position …… where he was lying at that time Yesterday night there was a bit of snow drifting, and it didn t go to waste at all, and it all covered his body.
It was good that the snow wasn’t too big, it was just a thin layer, otherwise, Zhao Chen might not even be able to see him.
“Why are you here again?”
Zhao Chen couldn’t help but get a little annoyed.
He had easily obtained the sword technique taught by the Blade Immortal and planned to practice it properly, and the Blade Immortal had sent word that this sword technique would help kill the enemy when practiced.
It was the right time for him to build his career.
It was a good thing that such a stumbling block came out.
As a result, that young man looked at him in a daze, as if he had just woken up, then yawned big time and rolled over to sit up:
“What again? Laozi didn’t leave at all.”
“…… Don’t tell me that you were sleeping here all night, last night?”
Zhao Chen asked while suddenly being a bit heartbroken.
The clothes that this person was wearing were not ragged, but they were also very dirty.
There were also scars on all parts of his face.
Visible in the past is ate a lot of pain ……
Cold days, not even a place to sleep, just sleep in this wild land for a night.
Surprisingly, he has not frozen to death?
This head is most likely to be frozen, right?
Thinking in his heart, he saw that young man nodded indeed.
“Why don’t you go into the city to sleep?”
Zhao Chen asked again, and after asking, he felt that he had asked a nonsense question, who wouldn’t want to go into the city to sleep in an inn if they had money?
Otherwise, there are friends and relatives to join, it’s not as bad as being alone and suffering from the cold here.
Then he saw that young man glancing at him:
“Lazy.”
“……”
Zhao Chen was silent for a moment, and finally decided that this young man’s brain was really broken.
“You’re still going to practice your sword today?”
The young man suddenly opened his mouth to inquire.
“…… Yeah.”
“Who taught you your sword technique?”
“Didn’t you say it was taught by your master?”
Zhao Chen cried and laughed, this person was talking out of turn, he had forgotten what he had said himself.
Then he saw that the young man seemed to be meditating for a while before he said:
“Actually, I’m not too sure ……
“I just know that I’ve been looking for someone.
“Always looking, always looking …… But I don’t know why, I was always one step behind him.
“By the time I got there, he’d gone to another place.
“Then I found a big house, and an old man at the door told me that he knew me, that I was looking for my master.
“But I don’t remember I have a master, and then he said, your master is the amazing god knife Jiang Ran, his knife law is very powerful …… how how.
“Hey …… but I think left and right, also can’t remember, this person is not my master or not.
“But there is one thing, I do know this name, and, I can definitely say that I am indeed looking for this person.”
Zhao Chen was dumbfounded by what he heard.
It could still be about the Blade Immortal?
He thought for a moment and asked:
“Then …… you don’t even remember, how did you say that my blade technique was taught to me by your master?”
“That old man gave me a demonstration of my master’s martial arts so that I wouldn’t find the wrong person when the time came and get tricked again.
“You can’t hide his intention from me when it’s hidden in your blade strokes.”
The young man sneered:
“Old things know to worry blindly, old me I’m extremely smart, who can fool me?”
“Right right right ……”
Zhao Chen felt it was better to go along with this psycho’s words first.
It always felt as if what this person said was still true.
It wasn’t made up ……
In case this person was really Jiang Ran’s lost disciple, he had to help others, didn’t he?
After all, he had also taught himself the art of the sword.
Thinking this way, he continued to ask:
“Then what happened later?”
“Then I lived in that big house for a while, listening to that old man tell me about my master.
“And then later, I suddenly became impatient.
“and planned to go and find my master and ask him to his face.
“Then I inquired about him and found my way here …… But, again, just like in the past, whenever I came, he was gone ……
“Why is this man so capable of running away? Can’t he wait peacefully in a place where I can find him properly?”
“…… This, perhaps the fate of your master and disciple meeting has not yet arrived.”
Zhao Chen casually made a perfunctory remark, then asked again:
“Then since you know that he’s not here anymore, why don’t you move to find him?”
As he said this, he listed a whole bunch of possible reasons in his mind again.
Then he saw the young man roll both eyes:
“I’m lazy ……”
“…… Look out.”
Zhao Chen felt that this person wasn’t lazy, most likely he was really sick.
And the sickness wasn’t light ……
But this was a call for Zhao Chen to get tangled up.
What to do next?
This seemed to really be Knife Immortal’s disciple, and he himself had been greatly favored, so he couldn’t help but return the favor.
But Knife Immortal, his old man is not short of anything, and the dynasty Princess are ambiguous.
What one returns is a joke.
But …… his disciple seems to be in need of help.
Then himself, should he help him find the Knife Immortal?
Zhao Chen’s heart was flooded with this idea, yet he felt it was a bit whimsical.
Just as he was mulling it over, he heard the young man rub his belly and say:
“Senior brother, can you find me something to eat.”
“Ah? Senior brother?”
Zhao Chen froze and looked around:
“Calling me?”
“Of course, my master taught you the sword technique, aren’t you my senior brother?”
The young man revealed a rare soft smile:
“Senior brother good boy, senior brother I’m hungry, can you find me something to eat.”
“…… OK.”
Zhao Chen had originally felt that he should return the favor to Jiang Ran.
Originally, he was still worried about not having a suitable doorway.
As a result, this doorway was delivered to his door.
Wouldn’t entertaining this Blade Immortal disciple properly by himself be repaying Jiang Ran?
As for the words master, disciple …… Zhao Chen didn’t even dare to think about it.
He has self-awareness.
His own a small border city pawn, age is not small, long past the best time to practice martial arts.
Knife fairy like a high figure, how can he climb up?
But it doesn’t matter if you can’t climb up, this Knife Immortal disciple likes to call, then he will listen to it.
Thinking of this, he suddenly smiled.
Accelerating his pace, he went to buy a lot of food and drink for this Sword Immortal disciple.
Roasted chicken, roasted cakes, and the like were all available.
Soon, Zhao Chen came back and saw that the young man was still in the original position ……
Suddenly blessed, he asked:
“Do you have silver on you?”
“There is.”
The young man nodded, reached out and took the roasted chicken, grabbed it and gnawed hard, and then pulled out two large Yuanbao from his arms:
“On the way out, that old man slipped them to me, along with silver tickets, sewn into my clothes.”
“……”
Zhao Chen grinned, “Then why don’t you go buy them yourself?”
The young man raised his head and smiled an untamed smile:
“Because I’m lazy ……”
Zhao Chen took a breath and glanced down at his still bandaged leg.
Suddenly felt that this young man’s face was repulsive.
As a result, the young man said while eating:
“I see that you’re weirdly reliable, why don’t you come with me to find Master after I’m done eating.”
“Ah?”
Zhao Chen froze, what would he do if he went to find him?
Immediately, he said in a hurry:
“Actually, I’m not his disciple, he just taught me a sword technique.
“We’ve just met once …….”
That young man nodded his head repeatedly at his words.
Zhao Chen was relieved, yet a little disappointed.
He was actually quite looking forward to seeing Jiang Ran one more time.
If this Blade Immortal disciple had been inviting himself, it wasn’t impossible for him to ‘reluctantly’ not go.
But now that the words had been made clear, he probably knew that he was just a passerby.
There was no qualification to meet the Blade Immortal again.
Then he sat down and watched that young man eat.
He probably hadn’t eaten for a few days, so he ate very quickly, a roasted chicken but in a few moments, only the bones were left.
The roasted cakes were all two or three bites a ……
Looking at Zhao Chen, he grinned straight:
“You take it easy, don’t choke, drink some water, yes, drink ……”
Soon, the young man ate and drank his fill, took his sleeve and wiped his mouth, then stretched his boss a lazy waist:
“Let’s go.”
“Where to go?”
“To find the master.”
“Ah? I just said I’m not …… eh, what are you doing?”
“You have too much nonsense.”
That young man came up and clutched Zhao Chen’s shoulder, Zhao Chen only felt that this person’s palm was like an iron clamp, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t break free in the slightest.
In his heart, he realized that this person was really something, worthy of being a Blade Immortal disciple.
Immediately following, Zhao Chen only felt himself rising up in the clouds.
But he was dragged by this young man and directly swept away.
Only when he waited and watched the Jin Yang Mansion get further and further away did he react to the fact that he had been robbed?
“You …… you at least wait for me to leave a message to the family ah ……”
“What?”
The young man cocked his head and looked at him:
“Forget it, I’m too lazy to listen ……”
“……”
……
……
Jiang Ran naturally knew nothing about what happened in the Jin Yang Mansion.
Their journey, however, was much smoother than expected.
Apart from the fact that they encountered that Northern Dao Wonder Warrior in the middle of the journey, which was considered to be a slight twist, the rest of the time, they didn’t even see a single mountain bandit.
The Rapunzel said that this was because the Golden Cicada Dynasty ruled the country well.
The people have food to eat, there is no need to fall into the weeds as bandits.
Jiang Ran can only say huh …… to this
Although there is a saying that if there is food to eat, who wants to be a thief?
But in fact there are really people like to be a thief.
Not to do production, no capital camp, kill a few people can get silver, women, there is a better deal than this?
Under the world, what kind of people do not have.
But this way no mountain bandits, in the end is a little strange.
But this was harmless.
On the contrary, it accelerated the pace of Jiang Ran and the others, making their journey smoother and smoother.
And seeing as the New Year’s Eve was approaching, they didn’t intend to sleep outside on New Year’s Eve.
So they simply stayed in a city called Sifangfu for the time being.
In the inn, chartered a courtyard, intending to spend the New Year here.
Around the delay is only two or three days of light, and then continue to depart.
As today is not yet completely dark, Jiang Ran was a group of people from the room pulled out.
The Eldest Princess said that the Sifang Province was most lively around New Year’s Eve, and the streets were filled with lanterns of all colors, and the people stepped out of their homes to see the lanterns, guess the lantern riddles, compete in poetry contests, and so on and so forth abounded.
Tang Yuyi said that she had just entered the city when she heard that tonight in the city’s Rouge House, there was a flower girl who had been selling her art but not her body, and she was planning to start accepting customers.
All the luxurious customers from all sides wanted to throw away a lot of money to buy this first night.
Then said to Jiang Ran, do you want to help him buy …… to make up for the old drunkard s killing and maiming of him back then?
Even Tang Shiyi jumped at the chance to go out on the streets with Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran had no choice but to go out.
Leaving Li Tianyu to look after the house, Jiang Ran brought along the Princess, Shixue, Ye Jingxue, and Chu Yuniang.
Originally, he also wanted to bring Tian Miaomiao.
As a result, Tian Miao Miao wasn’t interested in it and said that she would be willing to go and watch if someone sang an opera.
Wu Di wasn’t at the inn, so Jiang Ran didn’t bother.
Anyway, Tian Youfang was watching silently, so nothing could go wrong.
A few people took a look at this side, that side, Jiang Ran in the middle of this, naturally is a little unrestrained.
In front of a booth with poems and gifts, Jiang Ran was very much a copyist.
Borrowed a few masterpieces from the past life, shocked the four sides of the tongue.
The Princess and others looked at Jiang Ran is even more astonished.
Then there is no then.
Poetry talent how, in this era is not very meaningful.
There are literati who are good at writing and practicing ink, but they have nothing to do with people like Jiang Ran.
What’s more, this kind of thing, once in a while is harmless, but it’s meaningless to keep copying.
Walking all the way to see, to wait for the night to fall, surrounded by lanterns colorful light up, it is indeed very beautiful.
Jiang Ran also rarely see such a scene.
When I was a child, I was not interested, and then the old drunkard left home every now and then, and Jiang Ran was even lazier to go out alone.
Now this ten thousand families fireworks, but let Jiang Ran suddenly feet of this world, there is a kind of indefinable feeling.
Especially around the poetic, a left and a right standing on both sides, but also let Jiang Ran heart inexplicably more than a few feelings of stability.
This night is not without the slightest change.
The most striking thing was that the flower girl of Rouge House failed to really find a benefactor.
Because right at the critical time, a good Jianghu fighter came.
Regardless of the reaction of the people around him, he directly took the flower girl away by force.
It is said that that person’s martial arts is strong, the pimp of the rouge building sent a lot of people to chase, to find …… the result is all failed to return.
Some are unable to find, some find the fight, and ended up in a mess.
But this person is therefore famous.
His surname is Mo, called Mo Bufan.
Of course, this matter had nothing to do with Jiang Ran.
If he had to be involved, then he could only say that the Rouge House was the property of the Iron Cavalry Alliance.
The Iron Cavalry Alliance and the Blood Sword Hall were rivals.
Jiang Ran, as Xuanyuan Yidao’s master, had a grudge against the Iron Cavalry Alliance.
He did kill quite a few people from the Thirteen Iron-Blooded Cavalry at that time in the Jin Yang Province, including their horses, and carriages, all of which were looted from the Thirteen Iron-Blooded Cavalry.
Now that this person had made this mess, he had actually offended the Iron Cavalry Alliance.
In a way, it was in a similar position as Jiang Ran.
It was just that it would be meaningless to talk about it in such a hard way.
After the lanterns, another day, it is the 30th day of the Lunar New Year.
The inn is all red-hot, and the innkeeper is also full of joy.
Seeing people on the smile, but also one by one to the guests who stayed overnight, are more than a few complimentary dishes.
The store assistants were all stuffed with big red envelopes, so each one of them was elated.
Jiang Ran their group of people naturally also put together a large table, he was pushed to the first seat, originally he was reluctant, after all, the Princess is still there.
As a result, he was not willing to, after all, the Princess is still there, but the result of excuses, so-called.
The jianghu people, pay attention to is a unrestrained.
And this line of all the people, all were called over.
Including the prisoner Yi Cangxian …… were dragged, looking for a small bench to sit at the door.
Jiang Ran raised his bowl of wine, and originally wanted to say something, but the result was that Tian Miao Miao had already winded up eating a face full of oil.
Jiang Ran, in light of this, simply didn’t talk nonsense:
“Hurry up and move your chopsticks, otherwise, Tian Da Silly Girl will eat it all!!!”
The crowd woke up like a dream and ate and drank.
This meal did not have so many preoccupations, and there was no hidden storm.
The crowd ate and drank painfully.
Jiang Ran himself is really open belly, drink the shopkeeper’s face pale over to explore, for fear that the New Year’s drinking death.
The result is to see Jiang Ran face as usual, half of the difference is not, began to suspect that is not under the hands of the people took their own silver to buy fake wine for themselves ……
A lot of lively tossed to the middle of the night, the crowd only then all happy to disperse.
This night, in addition to Jiang Ran all drunk.
Tang painting Yi usually seldom drink alcohol, in addition to the indulgence of singing a class of thousand yun mountain villa wine, the other simply do not look at.
Tonight is also drink five confused.
He pulled Tang Shixi to pay tribute to him.
Tang Shixi looked at her own sister’s nonsense, but there was nothing she could do.
In the end, she really worshiped with her.
The result was that everyone worshipped together.
Tang Shixi, Ye Jingxue, Chu Yuniang, even the Princess was pulled over to join in the fun, and naturally Tian Miao Miao.
I don’t want to be born in the same year and month on the same day, but I want to die in the same year and month on the same day…….
Jiang Ran let them fool around, guessing that tomorrow morning, basically forget about it.
Until all of them were sent to the guest room to rest peacefully.
Only then did Jiang Ran carry a gourd of wine alone to the roof:
“Go rest, I’ll keep watch tonight.”
Li Tianyu glanced at Jiang Ran and didn’t ask any more questions, so he nodded and rolled over to go down.
Jiang Ran smiled dumbly:
“This kind of reticence ……”
Suddenly he twisted his head and asked softly:
“Is this also the style of your Lifeless Building?”
He did not see anyone where he gazed.
But there were voices coming out of the shadows:
“The Lifeless Building has death and no life, so it naturally has few words, so I’m sorry to have called Jiang Ran a laughing stock.”
The voice came from the direction Jiang Ran was looking, but Jiang Ran shook his head and raised the wine gourd in his hand, handing it to his left:
“It’s the New Year, don’t want to kill anyone.
“Accompany me for a drink?”
The visitor actually took the wine gourd in Jiang Ran’s hand in earnest, then sat down beside Jiang Ran:
“Someone from the Qing State has come to the Lifeless Building to put down a single child, wanting the Lifeless Building to execute Shan Yu Chan.”
