Jian Xingxing was immediately unhappy. It was not easy for him to take advantage of his father.
He put his hands on his hips and looked up at Chu Yan confidently: "Although you are older, in terms of seniority, I am your elder! That's what you should call me, senior brother!"
The man lowered his eyes and looked at him calmly: "I don't have a big brain, but I think it's quite beautiful."
"How can you talk like this!"
Jian Xingxing was immediately furious. He stepped on his feet and scolded Chu Yan: "I am not old, but you can't insult my IQ! If you call my sister master, then I will be your senior brother!"
"Okay, okay, stop making trouble."
Jian Anran shook her head helplessly. Why hadn't she noticed before that these two people were absolutely two living treasures?
Forget about Jian Xingxing, it has always been like this before, but what happened to Chu Yan?
He actually quarreled with a child.
If Chu Yan really screamed, the situation would be wrong!
This is really bad!
That won't work!
"Don't you want to go with me?"
In desperation, Jian Anran could only forcefully change the topic, "If you want to go, get in the car and set off now. The destination is far away. If you delay for a while, it will be too late."
"Go, go! Let's go now!"
Jian Xingxing was successfully diverted and happily ran into the car first.
Jian Anran shook her head, held her forehead and sighed.
Really... I convinced the father and son.
Chu Yan is still responsible for driving.
Just as Chu Yan said himself, he became Jian Anran's driver.
By the time they arrived at the location marked on the map, it was almost evening.
Chu Yan looked at the narrow mountain road in front of him that could hardly be called a road, and asked with a frown: "Are you sure you are here?"
Seeing the mountains and forests in front of him that looked like wilderness, Chu Yan fell deeply into thought.
Would the Zhuque Zhenwu Thousand-Year Candle, which is so valued by the Taoist Association, be in this place where birds don't poop?
After all, it should be worshiped properly like the Shaolin Temple, right?
"Well, it's right here."
Jian Anran didn't think there was anything unexpected. She took out the compass and looked at it again to confirm that the direction was correct. Then she walked in front and led the way: "The compass shows that this is also here. If the car can't drive in, stop here first."
Come on, let’s go in and take a look at the situation.”
Dusk stretched Jian Anran's figure very long, slender but full of tenacious strength.
Chu Yan was fascinated for a moment.
He may really know very little about his wife.
In such a remote place, she didn't even frown.
"Sister, don't walk too fast, wait for us!"
Jian Xingxing's voice brought Chu Yan back from his thoughts. The man followed quickly and grabbed Jian Xingxing, who almost fell down because he was jumping too fast.
Following Jian Anran, he turned left and right in the woods, and then passed through a narrow cave. The sight in front of him gradually broadened.
There are no prosperous villages like in Peach Blossom Spring. At first glance, the villages here are not only backward but also very desolate.
"This is it."
Jian Anran put away the compass and took a look at the situation in the village. She didn't seem very surprised.
And Jian Xingxing also adapted well to stand by Jian Anran's side.
Chu Yan pursed his lips and swallowed the words that came to his lips.
"The Millennium Candle has been guarded by the villagers for generations. It is located at the southernmost point of the Demon City and is already the boundary of the city."
Seeing that Chu Yan was hesitant to speak, Jian Anran simply explained,
"What we need to do is determine whether the Millennium Candle is still intact."
"Um……"
Chu Yan thought for a while, but still hesitated to speak, "It's getting late, are you not used to being here?"
"ah?"
Jian Anran was stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect that Chu Yan was actually concerned about this issue.
She waved her hand: "Of course not. This has happened before when I was dealing with things outside."
After saying this, Jian Anran suddenly looked at Chu Yan: "If you're not used to it, why don't you go back to the car?"
I almost forgot that the young master next to me has always lived a life of fine clothes and fine food.
"No, let's go and visit the village."
Upon hearing that he was being driven back, Chu Yan immediately spoke and even took the initiative to walk towards the small village.
This scene made Jian Anran dumbfounded.
When did this man Chu Yan become so cute?
As soon as the three people arrived in the village, they attracted the attention of many villagers.
They are located in a remote place, and it is difficult to go out, let alone someone come in. It is no exaggeration to say that there are probably some people in the village who have never seen anyone outside the village in their lives.
"Who are you? What are you doing in our village?"
An old man who was obviously the leader walked in front, staring at the three of them warily.
"Old man, we are people sent from above to check the situation of Millennium Candle."
Jian Anran spoke with a smile and took out her identity token to show the old man.
A place like this that is responsible for guarding town objects will all recognize such a token.
Sure enough, when he saw the token, the old man's expression immediately softened.
A smile appeared on his old face: "It turns out to be the master! Master, please come here. We haven't had guests in this village for a long time, so we are a little more wary. Master, don't be offended!"
"It's okay, it's okay. Are you the village chief here?"
Jian Anran waved her hand and asked the other party's identity.
"Yes, my name is Lin Tu, and I am the village chief of Honglie Village."
Lin Tu smiled happily and led the way: "I wonder what you call Master?"
"Just call me Jian Anran."
As Jian Anran walked, she and Lin Tu asked about the situation in the village: "Village Chief, has anything unusual happened in the village recently?"
Lin Tu walked in front and led the way, making his expression invisible: "Abnormal thing? I have never heard of this. No one has come to our village for many years, and you are also the first group of people to come here."
It seems that Millennium Candle has no problems for the time being.
Just when Jian Anran was about to propose going to see the Thousand-Year Candle, Lin Tu interrupted him: "Master Jian, it's already getting late. You can see the Thousand-Year Candle at any time. Why don't you take a rest first?"
It must have been a hard and tiring journey all the way.”
Without waiting for Jian Anran to answer, Lin Tu ordered the villagers around him: "Go, prepare wine and food, and be sure to entertain the master!"
The villagers also seemed very happy for the arrival of Jian Anran and the others, and immediately responded: "Okay! Let's go now! Master can't be wronged here!"
The other party was so enthusiastic that it was hard for Jian Anran to refuse.
Moreover, it was indeed getting late.
Jian Anran glanced at Jian Xingxing and Chu Yan, and nodded: "It's troublesome."
"No trouble, no trouble. I'll go and inform the villagers that there are guests coming to the village. This is a big deal!"
