I originally came to Qianliu Villa to help Ye Jingshuang.
Unexpectedly, Qi Cheng actually met Ding Feng, which was obviously an unexpected gain.
When Po Tian's wealth came to him, Jiang Ran naturally had no reason to give it away.
He pinched the back of Ding Feng's neck and carried him back like a chicken.
Ding Feng was furious:
"You... are unreasonable, let me go!
"What kind of behavior is this?"
Jiang Ran heard him croaking, so he tapped his dumb point and threw it on the ground.
Qi Gong quickly asked someone to take care of this person so that Jiang Ran wouldn't have to worry too much.
Ding Feng looked around and was so angry that he couldn't say a word.
Qi Gong continued to invite Jiang Ran and the others to Qianliu Villa.
Although Qi Cheng has never told Qi Gong what he did, how could Qi Gong not know about it?
He led Jiang Ran and his party all the way to a courtyard deep inside the village:
"He put all the things he got from Hongfeng Villa here. There are mostly large items in the yard, and there are also many in the house..."
Opening the courtyard door, everyone stepped in.
As expected, there were a lot of things placed in the yard, but most of them were ancient wooden furniture and gold and silver sculptures.
Ye Jingshuang glanced at these things one by one, and her eyes became red unintentionally.
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Ran noticed that she was in a different mood and asked in a low voice.
Ye Jingshuang reached out and touched a jade pillar on one side. There were two rows of scratches on it, all the way up.
She pointed to one of the columns and said:
"This is me...that's my sister."
Jiang Ran was stunned, and then realized that this was probably to record the height of the two sisters.
I felt emotional for a moment, the Hong Maple Leaf family is really a big business.
Such a good jade pillar, to be so casually scrawled and carved on it...
Even when I was feeling this way, I also understood that this had different feelings for Ye Jingshuang.
The person who carefully carved these scratches for them to celebrate their growth is no longer there.
Along the way, Ye Jingshuang occasionally told Jiang Ran what these things were and how they came from.
However, there are not many who actually have memories.
There are many more that exist in memory but have not been seen in this yard.
After asking Qi Gong, he found out that Hongfeng Villa was not just the Qianliu Villa family that was moving.
There are many people taking a share of the pie.
For example, Luo Zhenxie...he got a lot of benefits.
Otherwise, he would not collude with the young village owner.
After taking a general look at the things outside, I opened the door. There were many exquisite and precious things placed in each room.
There are silk and satin, pearl agate, and various precious ornaments.
Ye Jingshuang didn't pay too much attention to these things, but just took away a pair of jade ornaments.
Then he looked at the two large boxes not far away.
There are all books and secrets inside.
Ye Jingshuang frowned and took out each volume to check. After a while, he took out a volume and handed it to Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran lowered his head and took a look. There were four big characters written on the writing: Nine Steps of the Heavenly Stem!
"This is……"
Jiang Ran's expression changed.
"I haven't had time to check the Ye family's secret room, but since I saw this secret book here, it means that the secret room has been broken.
"Moreover, it was not those people who made the move, but Qianliu Villa."
Ye Jingshuang shook his head slightly, and for a moment he didn't know where the thoughts in his heart came from.
In the past, when Hongfeng Villa was prosperous, there were friends everywhere and good people everywhere.
After encountering a catastrophe, these people not only did not consider revenge for Red Maple Villa, they just wished they could dig out the foundation completely.
Jiang Ran patted her shoulder gently:
"Look for it, the Ye family has a unique skill, but it can't be left out like this."
"kindness."
Ye Jingshuang nodded and started rummaging with Jiang Ran.
These things were obviously delivered not long ago, and Qi Cheng didn't even remember to sort them into categories.
Let alone practice.
After a while, Jiang Ran and the others had sorted out a large number of martial arts secrets.
They are all inherited and learned from the Ye family.
Ye Jingshuang counted them one by one, and finally shook his head gently:
"There is still one missing [Thirteen Maple Leaf Swords]...
"I guess it was taken away by someone else."
This is hard to find...
Qianliu Villa took the lead and arrived at Hongfeng Villa first, and there were still people who could steal this swordsmanship under their noses.
Now I will definitely not stay near Red Maple Villa.
Instead, he found a place to retreat and practice swordsmanship.
If you want to find him, unless this person uses this swordsmanship to gain fame in the world, otherwise there will be a huge crowd and there is almost no need to think about it.
Fortunately, Ye Jingshuang can think clearly:
"Brother Jiang, don't worry about this.
"Actually, I'm not stingy about swordsmanship. If someone masters it and is willing to help chivalry in the world, that would be good.
“Even if it’s given to him, what’s the harm?
"The only thing I'm worried about is that he will do evil and harm others by relying on this swordsmanship.
"If this is really the case, then no matter where we are in the world, we will eventually find this person and destroy his martial arts."
"OK."
Jiang Ran nodded: "If one day we hear rumors that someone uses these 'Thirteen Maple Leaf Swords' to kill innocent people, I will accompany you."
"good."
Ye Jingshuang nodded and stood up, asking Qi Gong to fetch a furoshiki, put all the secret books in, and packed them on his back:
"It's too troublesome to move other things around. Besides, I won't stay in Red Maple Villa. If these things are placed there, they will inevitably be coveted, so I'll just leave them here.
"I have to take these secret books with me."
Jiang Ran asked Qi Gong to get a lot of money.
Although it is not as exaggerated as a million taels, it is still as huge as tens of thousands of taels. This is all that Qianliu Villa can produce at present.
Jiang Ran handed these banknotes to Ye Jingshuang:
"Spend it first, then ask for more when you don't have enough."
Qi Gong nodded repeatedly:
"If the eldest lady runs out of money, you can come to Qianliu Villa to get it at any time."
Ye Jingshuang smiled and did not continue, but said to Jiang Ran:
"let's go."
"Walk."
Everything you need to do in Qianliu Villa has been done.
Those who deserved to be killed were also killed.
There is really no need to stay any longer.
After walking out of the gate of Qianliu Villa, I looked back at the village and realized that it might have been burned to the ground.
But the appearance of Qi Gong finally turned things around.
Jiang Ran didn't want to do everything right, which might not be a good thing for Ye Jingshuang.
Now this is considered acceptable.
Immediately, the group returned to Hongfeng Villa, and Luo Qingyi once again played the role of carrying things, but every time, he was carrying people...
Before it was Mo Tingsheng, this time it was Ding Feng, and there was a big bag of secrets.
All the way back, over mountains and ridges, Jiang Ran couldn't help but glance at Shi Miao.
I found that the blood was gone from her eyes at this time.
It looks just like usual.
Thinking back to the battle between her and Ding Feng, Jiang Ran actually felt a little hesitant.
Jiang Ran took the time to ask Ye Jingshuang about Ding Feng's origins.
I know that this person has been in the world for more than 20 years.
With this soul-destroying and life-killing sword, he gained a great reputation and was regarded as a very famous person in the devil's path.
His soul-destroying and life-killing sword is unique, and his internal strength should also be surprising.
Once he takes action, he is invincible and can kill with one hit.
At least judging from the rumors Ye Jingshuang heard, it seems that except for Shi Miao, no one has ever been able to take his soul-destroying sword head-on.
But today, Shi Miao not only accepted it, but he also did it with ease. He fought with her internal sword energy and never lost the slightest bit.
This is not just because Shi Miao himself has extremely high martial arts skills.
What plays a key role may be that touch of blood.
And this bloody color is related to Shi Pingzhang.
This made Jiang Ran a little worried about Shi Miao's current state.
"What are you looking at?"
Shi Miao was finally a little impatient when Jiang Ran looked at him.
His face was cold and solemn, and his eyes were sharp.
"Look at you...how are you feeling?"
Jiang Ran asked.
"Everything is fine."
Shi Miao's voice was cold:
"I should be fine."
Her words were doubtful, but her tone was decisive.
Jiang Ran wasn't sure for a moment whether her words came from the bottom of her heart or if she was just saying it casually.
Ye Jingshuang interrupted and said:
"Don't be careless...Shi Pingzhang is known as the inner demon. Your martial arts is based on your heart and sword. Your state of mind is particularly critical. I'm afraid someone will take advantage of you."
"Senior Sister Ye, what should I do?"
When Shi Miao looked at Ye Jingshuang, his mood finally changed.
After Ye Jingshuang pondered for a moment, he suddenly looked at Jiang Ran:
"Speaking of which, Brother Jiang, do you and Shi Miao... come from the same school?"
"ah?"
Jiang Ran was stunned.
Shi Miao was also a little confused, and his body felt even colder.
The war in my head was probably already going on, and the fight was going to be fierce, but there was no certainty of victory or defeat, and smoke was about to come out.
"Think about it... what you practice is the True Heart Sutra of Creation.
"The Zhengxin Sutra of Creation is the unique teaching of the Zhengxin Sect in the past.
"The Zhengxin Sect was broken into pieces and spread all over the world, and the Danyang Sword Sect was one of them.
"Of course, so is Dao Yizong.
"They are inseparable...
"Even if you and Shi Miao are not from the same sect, we still have a very close relationship.
"Because the foundation of the inheritance you have learned is in Zhengxin Sect."
Jiang Ran really couldn't refute this point.
The battle in Shi Miao's mind finally came to a winner.
She looked at Jiang Ran:
"You practice the Good Fortune Sutra?"
When she said this, she felt so cold that she could freeze to death.
It showed how surprised she was.
Not only her, Luo Qingyi and Ding Feng looked at Jiang Ran in horror at the same time.
It's like looking at a monster.
How come there are still people in this world who practice the True Heart Sutra of Creation?
And... Judging from his appearance, he is still practicing?
Jiang Ran nodded:
"Exactly."
There is nothing to hide about this, this is not some evil martial art, and no one has said that this martial art cannot be practiced by others, and can only be practiced by the inheritance of Zhengxin Sect.
After all, judging from the current situation, these sects that claim to be orthodox to the Zhengxin Sect are eager to remove the Zhengxin Sutra from the inheritance of the Zhengxin Sect.
"Brother Jiang, after you return to Hongfeng Villa, you can help her conduct a thorough investigation."
Ye Jingshuang continued:
"The inheritance between you is involved. The Righteous Heart Sutra of Creation is also named after the Righteous Heart, and it has extraordinary power.
"Shi Miao's sword heart was tainted by murderous aura. Considering the current situation, it may not be a bad thing, but it has greatly increased the power of her swordsmanship.
"But I'm worried that if things continue like this, there will be disaster in the future."
Luo Qingyi also nodded:
"Miss Ye is right, especially the murderous intention came from Shi Pingzhang.
"Before this person became a demon, he was still a crazy scholar.
"Whether it's inner demons or crazy scholars, these are definitely not good words when it comes to one's state of mind.
"Others are fine, but I'm afraid that Miss Shi will be affected by this all year round and become a demon..."
Jiang Ran knew what they said made sense, so he looked at Shi Miao:
"What do you think?"
"good."
Shi Miao was also very happy.
"Okay, let's go back and explain to Elder Su. Let's see if we can find out anything."
When Ding Feng saw that they had finished talking, he finally couldn't help but ask:
"Did you really learn the True Heart Sutra of Creation?
"Have you already reached the sixth level?"
Ye Jingshuang glanced at Jiang Ran and saw that he had no objection, so she chuckled:
"You underestimate Brother Jiang too much. He has already mastered this magical skill to the eighth level!"
"What!?"
Ding Feng only felt his scalp numb:
"This is impossible!
"How can this be?"
The first one was "this is impossible", but when I thought about the methods Jiang Ran showed, I felt that it was really possible.
For a moment, his eyes were empty, and he felt that he had not been wronged.
This is like meeting a group of monsters.
Look at these people...
A monster who has practiced the Righteous Heart Sutra of Creation to the eighth level.
Shi Miao was a master of swordsmanship and was dedicated to swordsmanship. In terms of swordsmanship alone, Shi Miao was even better than himself.
There is also the Liuyun Sword Sect, a genius who has mastered the Liuyun Sword Technique to the point of "self-generated clouds".
The worst one is Luo Qingyi.
But even if he is this person, none of the four masters of Qianliu Villa can be his opponent in a single fight.
For it to fall into their hands is... just too normal.
If there are words, it will be long; if there are no words, it will be short.
In the blink of an eye, everyone had returned to Hongfeng Villa.
As soon as I arrived in front of the door, I saw another visitor coming to Hongfeng Villa.
Ye Jingshuang immediately recognized:
"It's the Shuiyue Sword Sect!"
"It's really just five factions gathering together."
Jiang Ran smiled and looked around, thoughtfully.
I saw Fu Chengen running out of the door. When he saw Jiang Ran and his party, he quickly said:
"Brother Jiang, Junior Sister Ye, you are finally back.
"Comrades from the Shuiyue Sword Sect have arrived, this time led by Senior Ruan Yuqing of the Roushuijian.
"But before arriving at Hongfeng Villa, they met Shi Pingzhang..."
"What?"
Ye Jingshuang was surprised:
"How are Senior Ruan and the others doing?"
"Senior Ruan was seriously injured, and several of his disciples were also killed or injured.
"However, Shi Pingzhang has no piano in his hand. After all, he was frightened away by Senior Ruan... But now, she is infected with murderous aura and can hardly suppress it."
Ye Jingshuang suddenly realized it and glanced at Jiang Ran.
"Go quickly!"
Jiang Ran didn't hesitate.
Saving people is like putting out fires. Although the person infected by this murderous aura will not die, if this person cannot suppress it, others will die.
Fu Chengen led the way again, and in a blink of an eye the group had arrived at a courtyard.
All the disciples of the other four sects gathered in the courtyard.
Some were sitting cross-legged, and some were transmitting internal energy to several people from the Shuiyue Sword Sect to ensure that their minds were clear.
There were two girls guarding the door, looking into the door with impatient faces.
Huang Xuan's sharp eyes saw Fu Chengen at a glance, and he quickly shouted:
"Brother Jiang! Is Brother Jiang here?"
"coming."
Hearing Jiang Ran's voice, everyone quickly parted ways to let Jiang Ran step forward.
Huang Xuan then opened his mouth and said to the two girls in front of the door:
"Get out of the way quickly, help is coming."
The two girls looked at me, and I looked at you, and finally looked at Jiang Ran:
"How...why is he a man?"
Jiang Ran was stunned: "What's wrong with the man?"
"My uncle...has never let a man enter the boudoir."
A girl glanced at Huang Xuan:
"What...what should I do?"
Huang Xuan almost laughed angrily:
"You are not allowed to enter the boudoir? Then invite your uncle out!"
"Otherwise, let her murderous intent enter her heart and go on a killing spree!
"Who will win, each based on his own ability?"
"Among the five major sword sects, you, the Shuiyue Sword Sect, are the only one who is in trouble."
Ling Buyi's voice came from the other side:
"It's okay in normal times, but now it's a matter of life and death. Are you still here grinding and whining, is it over yet?"
When the two girls heard this, their eyes turned red.
After looking at each other, he took a step back and said to Jiang Ran:
"Sir, I'm sorry to trouble you, but I must save Uncle Ruan."
"...This is natural."
At this point, Jiang Ran didn't quite understand what the style of the Shuiyue Sword Sect was.
The children of Jianghu have always been informal, and when I first met Ye Jingshuang, I had given her medicine.
One of the "Five Swords" of the Shuiyue Sword Sect, at the moment of life and death, he is still thinking about these things?
This doesn't seem to make sense.
However, he didn't want to think too much at this moment. Jiang Ran opened the door and stepped inside. On the bed, he saw Su Wanyi reaching out and pressing her hand on the back of a woman who looked to be in her twenties.
She has a beautiful appearance, but there is a certain sharpness about her.
Nowadays, his clothes are messy, his hair is loose, and beads of sweat are slowly flowing down from his face, from his collarbone to his arms, making people think.
Jiang Ran just glanced at it and stopped looking. With a turn of his feet, he was already in front of this person.
He pointed his finger a little, and his heart-centered finger was about to land on Ruan Yuqing's eyebrows.
The woman suddenly opened her eyes.
A force of energy suddenly spread, and Su Wanyi behind her let out a muffled groan, and was bounced away by the internal force.
Immediately afterwards, Ruan Yuqing's two fingers moved together with a buzzing sound, directly between Jiang Ran's eyebrows.
Jiang Ran frowned slightly, and could only temporarily remove his Zhengxin finger, and turned his head slightly to get out of the way of the sword energy. He was about to reach out to grab this person's wrist, but found that her sword energy... did not stop there.
Instead of spreading out, it circled around and wrapped directly around Jiang Ran's neck.
"Can this sword energy turn corners?"
Jiang Ran was surprised.
With a change of heart, the body-protecting dharma appeared.
As soon as the sword energy came into contact with this protective technique, he was immediately shaken.
Ruan Yuqing swayed, then reached out and clapped his hand, and flew up from the bed. It seemed that he realized that Jiang Ran was not easy to mess with, so he rushed directly to the door.
Jiang Ran shook his sleeves and heard a clang sound.
The door slammed shut, startling the two girls outside.
