Chapter 533.
Jiang Ran had judged correctly earlier.
Going down from here, he walked about six or seven miles up the mountain before he saw a small courtyard building.
The middle-aged man had already arrived at the entrance of the courtyard.
Jiang Ran limped to the front under the ‘support’ of Ye Shockfang and Tang Shixiang.
Raising his eyes to look out, he skimmed his lips:
“This poor countryside, where people are rare, there’s even such a small courtyard.
“Say, this uncle, you live here alone, is there something unseemly going on?”
That middle-aged man frowned slightly, looked back at Jiang Ran and shook his head:
“I don’t know where the prodigal son came from, I’m kind enough to take you in, if you don’t want to live here, you can do your best to continue wandering in this mountain.
“Let’s see if you guys can survive this night.”
“This senior, you don’t have to be general with him …… He is just spoiled by Uncle Shih.”
Ye Shocking Frost’s eyes flickered as she spoke softly.
“Or you several female dolls understand …… It’s strange, several of you are good looking, how did you have bad eyes and look at such a confused egg.”
“Hey! What are you saying?”
Jiang Ran was furious.
The middle-aged man had already pushed the door in:
“Besides, I’m not the only one living in this house.
“There are also wives and daughters living in this …… brat, you’d better stay away from my daughter.
“Otherwise, I’ll let you know that I’m even more terrifying than the poisonous insects and beasts in this mountain!”
“Scary!!!”
Jiang Ran rolled his eyes.
Ye Shockfang and Tang Shixiang glanced at each other, both realizing that there was some laughter in the other’s eyes.
Jiang Ran’s pretense of playing the role of a playboy was a perfect fit.
Following behind that middle-aged man, he entered the door.
He saw that there was a shelf in the courtyard, on which were all kinds of medicinal herbs, sun-dried poisonous insects, and exotic herbs.
“So senior is a doctor.”
Ye Jingshang spoke softly.
The middle-aged man’s footsteps lurched and he was about to speak when he heard a coughing sound coming from the middle of the room.
His face changed, and without caring about Jiang Ran and the others, he quickly stepped to the door, pushed it open and rushed in.
The woman’s voice spoke eagerly:
“You’re back, take a quick look, she coughed up blood again ……”
“No harm, no harm, first rest assured, let me give Smokey a look.”
Although it is said to be indecent not to see, peeping into other people’s rooms is not appropriate, but the door of the room is wide open, the situation inside is standing outside at a glance.
Only to see a girl lying on the bed, looking probably only fourteen or fifteen years old.
The color of her face was pale, but there was a different kind of redness, looking rather sickly.
At this moment, the corner of the mouth is still hanging a wisp of blood.
Was that middle aged man with a handkerchief carefully wiped away, and then took over her wrist, fingers on it ……
Just seeing here, I saw a middle-aged woman walk to the door, slightly salute to the crowd, and then closed the door of the room.
The crowd looked at each other in disbelief, and the Dodo Demon Underworld King said in a low voice:
“Your Holiness, what are you …… doing?”
“They are not connected to our affairs, since this is the case, it is better not to let them feel that they have seen a group of people like us.
“The person with a heart but who traces it, can only trace it to the fact that he has met a group of public ladies who have mistakenly entered the mountains, rather than the demonic venerable …… who has come from the Golden Cicada
“We can rest here for the time being tonight, and step up our journey first thing in the morning.”
Jiang Ran casually replied, and the reason why he did this, besides this reason, was also because this middle-aged man was not an unusual ordinary person.
Otherwise, the big deal would be to take their legs and leave.
Both of these people had a martial arts skill and extremely deep attainments in the medical field, otherwise, they would never have known to attract Yan Wang soldiers in such a way.
Such people were bound to have some secrets in their bodies.
Their own group of people had triggered the organs they had set up, attracting their attention, and if they didn’t give a reasonable explanation, it was hard to say what the outcome would be.
Nowadays, this kind of behavior was the best choice to eliminate accidents from the root.
Of course, there is another method is to kill and exterminate …… just that this method has never been Jiang Ran’s first choice.
“That girl doesn’t look too good ……”
Ye Shocking Frost then spoke in a low voice.
Jiang Ran nodded:
“Although it’s only a distant side, it looks like she should have been poisoned.
“This person, who attracted the Yan King’s soldiers, and there are many poisons on this shelf, most likely wants to fight poison with poison.
“It is just that this method may have some effect on the poison that is in this girl’s body, but when two kinds of poison meet in the body, it is two tigers fighting.
“Although they will damage each other, however, the first one that can’t support it will most likely be this child’s body.”
“Big brother Jiang …… you can ……”
Ye Alarming Frost said here, and then stopped his mouth.
Now that they were at the very core of the world’s storm, at this juncture, naturally they shouldn’t have another branch.
Jiang Ran, on the other hand, nodded:
“I will see to it, if there is a chance, can save or save a good …… However, this middle-aged man has some means, maybe we do not need to bother.”
Ye Jingshuang heard this and then sighed in relief.
As for Jiang Ran, when this kind of thing came across, he couldn’t just pretend he didn’t see it.
Neither he nor Ye Jingfang were any great benefactors who could save the people from suffering, unable to save the people.
But the thing that was right in front of their eyes, if they didn’t do it, then Jiang Ran could hardly accept it.
This middle-aged man in the mountain lanterns, know that some people mistakenly enter, see them this group of ‘children of the family’ has not shot harm, but also take them home to rest for the night, visible for people not bad, under such circumstances, can help, or as far as possible to help.
The heart slightly did some calculations, then heard a creaking sound.
Jiang Ran immediately body shape a soft, directly lying in the arms of Tang Shixiang.
The middle-aged man opened the door and looked at it and grimaced:
“Serves me right for being blind …… line, just now something can not care about you guys.
“Well …… you will be in this east and west two compartments first put together a night. Well, how to live, you guys look after yourselves.
“No more, even if it is in this courtyard curtain sky and mat, or better than losing your life outside.
“By the way, the rooms on both sides of the house have fire kangs, which have not been inhabited for a long time, and are quite cold, and even at this season are not free from dampness.
“There is firewood at the back of the house, you guys take it by yourselves to burn the kang …… You guys, shouldn’t even know how to do this, right?”
“Will will will will!”
The eldest princess immediately nodded her head:
“You can rest assured that’s it, we know everything.”
Jiang Ran subconsciously rolled his eyes, whoever said this can say it, the Rapunzel said it, why is it so unbelievable?
However, the middle-aged man did believe it, and after saying that, he went back into the room and re-closed the door, leaving the matters outside to them to resolve on their own.
Jiang Ran and the others looked at each other.
In the end, they checked the situation of the rooms on the left and right respectively.
Within the compartments were large kangs, capable of housing quite a few people.
The bedding was all in the cupboards, not dirty, just a bit damp.
There was some dust on the kang, but a little sweeping would make it livable.
After a few people had a look around, Jiang Ran said that he and the Demon King would live in the west wing, and the other girls would live in the east wing.
As a result, Tang Shixi and Tang Wuyi were the first to be reluctant, wanting to stay with Jiang Ran.
Ye Jingfang mouthed her words, and Ye Jingxue unveiled herself, stating that she also wanted to live together, or at least fight for her sister.
As for the Rapunzel,…… they all lived together, how could they separate from them?
The final result was that Jiang Ran and Poetic Love and others all lived in the east wing, and the only one who lived in the west wing was the Duo Demon Underworld King.
The King of Demons was speechless for a while, but he could only honestly go over to clean up the house and burn the kang to sleep.
Jiang Ran, on his side, had almost packed up the things on the kang, so he let Ye Jingxue go and carry firewood back.
But Jiang Ran had to do the actual burning of the fire himself.
This is a small matter, but anyone who has done it knows how to do it …… But these are either the eldest young lady in the devil’s religion, or the heir to a famous family, or the eldest princess whose status is honorable and noble.
When have they ever done this little thing?
Jiang Ran, this ‘playboy’, squatted on the ground with a speechless face, lighting a fire to burn the kang.
Just looking up, he found several girls sitting in a circle on the bed, and under the firelight, the more beautiful they looked, the more beautiful they were.
For a moment, he couldn’t help but be distracted.
Ye Jingxue glared at him:
“It’s okay for you to look at them swinging, but what are you looking at me swinging for?”
“……”
Jiang Ran’s swinging calmed down immediately.
Skimming his mouth:
“One rat shit, spoils a pot of porridge.”
“Who are you calling a mouse shit?”
Ye Jingxue was furious, wanting to come down and fight with Jiang Ran.
However, she was pulled by Tang Wuyi:
“Alright, alright, you don’t have to talk tough, with someone like him hanging around with you every day.
“In the future, what kind of husband will you still be able to look at?
“Is it one with better martial arts skills than him? Or one who looks better than him?”
“……”
Ye Jingxue was speechless for a while.
A martial arts skill higher than the current world’s demonic father?
That fear would have to be a thousand year old monster to be …… able to see that even Bai Yu Lou was beaten into flying dust by him?
Bragging is not bad, what three strokes of the best moves …… result in two strokes after the fight people are gone.
Such a guy, who s martial arts can be higher than him?
As for the looks ……
Ye Jingxue originally wanted to be unconvinced, but looked at Jiang Ran who was squatting on the ground and burning the fire.
Finding out that even if this guy was in this scenario, with the fire light flickering, that face was still outstanding, making people’s hearts pound.
“Simply a vixen!”
Ye Jingxue hummed, not wanting to look.
Jiang Ran: “??”
Following that, he was furious:
“Who is a vixen? I’m a male, you call me a vixen, is that like it?”
“Foxes have males and females, why should a vixen only be a female?”
Ye Jingxue hummed:
“My sister was just mesmerized by your vixen-like stinky man!”
“Xue’er.”
Ye Shuangfang pulled over Ye Jingxue’s hand and gave her a helpless blank look:
“Don’t quarrel.”
“The louder the voice, the weaker the heart.”
Tang Yuyi grunted twice:
“I’ll see how long you can hold out.
“Don’t forget, he hasn’t finished healing your wounds yet, and with skin to skin every day, I don’t believe you don’t feel anything at all.”
“I …… I strangle you this little demoness.”
Ye Jingxue couldn’t say anything about her, and under annoyance immediately pounced on her and twisted with her in a ball.
Jiang Ran began to cry and laugh, wanting to advise against impulsiveness.
But looking at the two beauties rolling around on the bed, surprisingly do not feel disturbed, on the contrary, some pleasing to the eye.
Then also do not bother.
The two girls tossed for a while, only to stop.
Jiang Ran at this time the kang is almost burned, the kang emits heat, steaming, a little sitting hot ass, the people had to sit in a circle, the bedding will be taken out on the kang slightly baked.
“How will we sleep later?”
I don’t know who raised this question first.
“Vixen sleeps in the middle.”
Ye Jingxue said:
“Whoever you guys like to stick to him, whoever sticks to him, I’m not sticking anyway.”
“It’s not your turn either.”
Tang Yuyi said:
“I’ll sleep plastered against my brother-in-law.”
Between words, she raised her eyes to Jiang Ran, her big eyes blinking:
“Okay?”
Jiang Ran was happy and was about to nod his head when he saw Ye Shockfang and Tang Shixiang also secretly looking at him.
It wasn’t easy to decide for a moment.
Coughing, he was about to find a topic to skim over this one, when suddenly his ears twitched:
“Someone’s coming again.”
Tang Shiyi looked up after a while:
“The number of people is quite a lot, perhaps there are about twenty people ……
“Raging, heading straight for this place.”
“Are they here to find us, or to seek revenge?”
The eldest princess spoke in a low voice.
Jiang Ran shook his head:
“Let’s wait and see what happens first.”
As the words fell, he turned around and exhaled a breath, directly blowing out the oil lamp in the room.
The firelight went out, and the entire room was suddenly plunged into darkness.
Several people came together in a ball, and Jiang Ran was again squeezed in the center.
Surrounded by soft jade and warm fragrance, even though he usually endured such treatment every day, somehow, this night felt a bit extraordinarily difficult.
“They are still a distance away from this place …… probably still have to wait for a quarter of an hour ……”
Tang Shixi said:
“Why don’t we turn the quilt over first, and then we’ll toast it later.”
The crowd nodded their heads.
And just then, the window was knocked.
Jiang Ran came to the window without surprise, pushed it open, and saw Mo Bai standing outside the window.
After seeing Jiang Ran, his footsteps were a little bit, and his figure unexpectedly walked away like a shuttle.
After Jiang Ran mused for a moment, he looked back at Tang Shixiang and the others:
“I’ll go and come.”
“Good.”
The crowd agreed, and only then did Jiang Ran burrow out, chasing after Mo Bai’s footsteps and running towards the outside for a short distance.
Only then did Mo Bai stop his steps.
Turning back to look at Jiang Ran:
“The owner asked me to tell you that she probably saw the identity of this family.
“That family head, should be the third head of the ‘Apricot Grove Hall’ of the Li Country ……
“This person’s name is Su Qing.
“He is known in the jianghu as the ‘Wonderful Hand of Mercy,’ and his medical skills are extraordinary.
“However, this wonderful hand with extraordinary medical skills was unable to save his own daughter.
“It’s rumored that Su Yan’er has a strange disease that can’t be saved by medicine.
“No matter how many ways the people of the Apricot Grove Hall tried, they were unable to save her.
“In order to save his daughter, Su Qing also gradually stopped showing up in the jianghu, but unbeknownst to him, it turned out to be hiding in seclusion here.”
Jiang Ran nodded gently at his words:
“Then does Aunt Rou know if this Su Qing has any enemies?”
“…… Wonderful hands and kind heart, saved many people in the Jianghu. There aren’t many enemies, but those who have been favored by him abound.
“It is said that even the White Jade House has received his help before.
“Your Holiness asked about enemies …… does that mean there is something to discover?”
“Someone came late at night, looking at the appearance, the visitor is not good.”
“I see.”
Mo Bai nodded:
“That is, does Your Holiness intend to remain here? Or will you leave first? The grudge of the Li Kingdom has nothing to do with us, so it’s better not to get involved.”
Jiang Ran smiled:
“A chance encounter is also fate, let’s wait and see what happens first.”
“Good, I will convey your honor’s meaning to the owner ……”
Mo Bai said this, but then paused in his steps and glanced at Jiang Ran:
“The relationship between Your Holiness and the Building Master is really good.”
Jiang Ran looked up at Mo Bai with an open mind:
“What do you want to say?”
“Nothing ……”
Mo Bai smiled:
“I’ll take my leave.”
After saying that, he turned around to leave.
“Wait.”
Jiang Ran suddenly spoke:
“Brother Mo Bai, have you and I met somewhere before?”
Mo Bai looked back at Jiang Ran:
“How could this be said …… How could my humble self have that honor to have met Your Holiness?”
“That being the case, why don’t you take off your mask and let me see your true face?”
Jiang Ran said while taking a step forward.
Mo Bai froze:
“Could it be that Your Holiness intends to forcefully remove my mask?”
“Why not?”
Jiang Ran laughed:
“Could it be that there is also a rule in your sect that you have to kill whoever removes your mask?
“That’s something we’ll have to see if you have such a skill.”
Even if there was such a rule, facing someone like Jiang Ran, Mo Bai couldn’t kill him even if he died.
He subconsciously took a step back:
“I ……”
Just after saying a word, his shoulders were tightened:
“Why be nervous?”
Jiang Ran’s voice came in his ear.
“Your honor, I am the owner’s person …… wearing a mask has its own reasons, if your honor forcibly take it off, you are not worried about angering the owner?”
Mo Bai forced himself to speak, a hint of nervousness in his voice.
Jiang Ran smiled:
“The more you say that, the more curious I am.
“Moreover, you don’t need to worry, your building master is my nursemaid, her relationship with me is extraordinary, even if she is angry with me, it will only be for a moment.”
At this point, that Mo Bai suddenly picked his shoulder, wanting to shake off Jiang Ran’s hand, followed by a point of his foot, his body shape was going to scurry out.
However, when he fell between Jiang Ran’s five fingers, where could he run away so easily?
Jiang Ran’s five fingers clasped, and directly pressed it to one knee on the ground.
The upper and lower part of his body was penetrated by a force in an instant, and it was as if the whole person was nailed to the ground by a big invisible nail.
Jiang Ran stood with his arms folded:
“Your hands are still able to move, take them off on your own and don’t let this honored one make a move.”
“…… Surnamed Jiang, you ……”
Mo Bai gritted his teeth.
Jiang Ran turned to look at him, his eyes narrowing slightly:
“At this point, you still don’t take it off? That is, then it’s better for this father to help you.”
As the words fell, he hooked his five fingers, and the mask that was worn on Mo Bai’s face instantly flew directly into Jiang Ran’s palm with a whoosh.
The next moment, four eyes relative ……
Jiang Ran was first shaken for a moment, but soon had already reacted:
“So it’s you ……”
Mo Bai hurriedly reached out to cover his face, yet knew that even if he covered it, it was useless.
Helplessly, he sighed:
“Jiang warrior …… long time no see.”
