In the narrow path in the forest, several screams were heard, startling a few birds.
A stumbling figure, running blindly, looking back, it seems like there is some savage beast behind it.
But he didn't notice that a tree was in front of him, and he hit the tree.
In a moment, an arrow shot through the air.
Penetrate the head and nail it tightly.
Li Tianyu took back his long bow, got out of the car, and began to sort out the trophies and recover the arrows.
Jiang Ran held the gourd of wine and drank several sips before taking a deep breath:
"Comfortable."
"Why are you so comfortable... How many times has this happened since you came out of Ziyue Villa?"
Tang Huayi rolled her eyes at Jiang Ran:
"The drama at Sunset Ping was in vain. These people are still chasing Jiaowei."
Jiang Ran smiled:
"The drama at Sunset Ping is not meant to bring peace and tranquility in the future.
"At least these righteous disciples in the world have no reason to covet Jiao Wei anymore.
"And these people who dare to come...are all desperate desperadoes.
"I am quite happy when they come. Even though the harvest is not too much, it is not nothing...
"Tianyu, take a good look at the faces when you clean them up. The heads of those on the wanted posters were cut off and brought back."
"knew."
Li Tianyu agreed from a distance.
"Tianyu is pretty good."
Tang Huayi glanced at it and said with a smile:
"Quite useful..."
Having said this, he glanced at Tian Miaomiao who was squatting on the ground, not knowing what to look at, and sighed:
"What should I do with this child?"
"..."
Jiang Ran also smiled when he heard this.
When she was still with Tian Xiwen, Jiang Ran knew that this girl was not very reliable.
Facts have proved that this is indeed the case.
She was said to be Jiang Ran's maid. Jiang Ran went into the city and asked her to get a bottle of wine. As a result, she went out in the morning and still didn't come back in the evening.
When Jiang Ran was really worried and went out to search, he found that the girl had fallen in love with the book in the restaurant.
Taking Jiang Ran's wine gourd, he became extremely drunk and his face turned red.
When she comes back at night, not only can she not take care of Jiang Ran's daily life, but Jiang Ran has to take care of her when she sleeps...
Forget it, she was still drunk and crazy.
If you have nothing to do, just do a set of Wang Ba Quan.
In other words, Jiang Ran was very powerful in martial arts, so he easily suppressed him.
Anyone else would have been beaten to death by her drunkenness.
And this is just a small thing among all the reasons.
Now, after a fight had just happened, this girl tore two people to pieces and then squatted on the ground to count ants.
Be enthusiastic and never get tired of it.
Jiang Ran originally wanted to teach her the power of the wild dragon, but looking at her posture, he thought it would be better to wait a little longer.
When she rides across the river, she won't be able to carry the horse across the river.
Otherwise, Jiang Ran is worried that if he teaches her martial arts, forget it if she can't learn it, and don't go back and learn it again and become obsessed with it.
But when it comes to being obsessed... Jiang Ran thought of another thing.
Little half a month has passed since I left Ziyue Villa.
During this period of time, Jiang Ran has been struggling with one thing, and it was not until recently that he came to a conclusion.
That’s...whether or not I should receive the Demon-killing Technique of Moving Stars and Yisutian.
This is an extremely powerful martial art!
Really awesome.
Just look at Meng Huan, after four years of practice, he already has such attainments.
Even if we don't mention killing species, if we create a killing path, we can increase our internal strength by killing a few people on a daily basis...it's really wonderful.
The only problem is that the side effects are too strong.
But regarding this point, Jiang Ran was not without ideas.
The side effect of Shifting Stars and Yisutian Demon Killing Technique is that the more you practice it, the shallower your state of mind becomes and the more fear you feel in your heart.
Thinking and worrying too much can lead to illness.
All joints depend on the state of mind.
But Jiang Ran has a method of centering the mind that is unique in heaven and earth - the True Heart Sutra of Creation.
Moreover, if he receives the Demon-killing Technique of Shifting Stars and Yisutian, it might also be absorbed by the Creation Zhengxin Sutra...
Whether it will ultimately affect his state of mind is hard to say.
But when he discussed this issue with Tang Huayi, Tang Huayi poured cold water on him.
"You have the Righteous Heart Sutra of Creation, and you can indeed keep your mind straight and focused.
"But... practicing both good and evil martial arts together... aren't you afraid of going too far?"
Holding a flower and smiling, one thought will make you a Buddha, and one thought will turn you into a demon.
After Jiang Ran thought about it for a while, he felt that this made sense.
The Zhengxin Sutra of Creation is indeed powerful, but the technique of moving stars and changing the sky to kill demons is not simple either.
If something really happened in the end, the two forces of good and evil would be entangled in the body, which could lead to a person being possessed by a demon, or... a direct death.
Then play big.
So after struggling to the end, Jiang Ran decided not to receive it.
The magic power, one of the Eighteen Heavenly Demon Records, was replaced with BUFF.
After this matter came to a conclusion, Jiang Ran sorted out the rewards after exchanging heads.
Overall, I gained a total of thirty-two years of internal strength, three buffs, and three sets of martial arts.
Leaving aside the aspect of internal strength, among these three sets of martial arts worth mentioning, the first one is the [Intentional Flowing Light Technique] from Bai Xichao.
This is a light skill.
【Let your mind be free in the world, and transform into a little stream of light.】
Bai Xichao has been practicing this light skill for seventeen years, and now it has become Jiang Ran's third light skill.
Different from the Heavenly Stems Nine Steps and the Hidden Shadow Confused God Steps, the key to this Qing Kung is that there is only one word... and that is fast!
This can be regarded as making up for Jiang Ran's shortcomings in Qinggong.
The Nine Steps of Heavenly Stems are extensive and profound, and can increase one's own speed, but are quite limited. They are more used in body movements during combat.
Not to mention the latent shadow step. Once this step is performed, it can appear and disappear as if teleporting, but the distance is limited and it cannot withstand long distances.
Its core key is that when it is performed, it is silent and can stick itself to any terrain.
It's a good skill to be a thief.
Only this Intentional Flowing Light Technique is really fast!
Before Jiang Ran received it, he added a BUFF to it, turning seventeen years into twenty-seven years.
Now that it is used, it is like a flash of inspiration that can travel thousands of miles in the blink of an eye.
Of course, this is an exaggeration.
Jiang Ran didn't know whether the second set of kung fu came from the deputy sect master of the blue sect or the master of the white sect.
This is a set of fingerings.
It’s called [Xia Guangzhi].
There are a total of one hundred and thirty-six moves before and after. There is a unique mental method of exercising power and a unique set of acupoint-pointing techniques, which is called [Xiaguang Acupoint Dinging Technique].
When performing it, use your strength to move your fingers, and your fingers will glow with a slight glow.
One hundred and thirty-six moves, the moves are endless, and the shadows of the fingers are like a film, like the sunset filling the sky.
The moves are exquisite and profound.
It is different from the Great Brahma Crossing World Finger that Jiang Ran previously obtained from the Great Brahma Vajra Secret.
The Great Brahma Crossing the World refers to the attack and has no ability. It is mostly used to save people and heal their wounds.
This fingering method is the real way of attack.
And then comes the end...
This last method, Jiang Ran thought, was not martial arts.
Although there are mental methods that can operate, they are like wild dragon powers, which enhance specific abilities.
However, what the Barbarian Dragon Strength improves is strength.
This secret...
Jiang Ran guessed that this last income must come from Mrs. Meng.
Tang Huayi once said the true origin of Mrs. Meng.
Therefore, when he received this [Harmony Art], he knew that no one except her would be proficient in these eighteen classes of martial arts.
At first, Jiang Ran was really frightened by the name.
I'm still wondering, what kind of martial art is Heming Yaoshu?
After waiting to receive it, I found that all that came to my mind were various postures and different ways of experiencing the heart secrets.
Only then did I realize that it turned out to mean the harmony of the harp and the harp.
At that time, Jiang Ran's old face turned red and sighed, who said that the past is not the present?
At least within a certain scope, the ancients' fantastic ideas were far superior to those of today's people... They were even able to find ways to exercise their power, and they could also use this to strengthen their bodies, which was far more imaginative than those of today's people. I don’t know how much it’s consumed.
However, this is not the true evil power of the Hehuan Sect.
At best, it is just one of the small methods that can be used to enhance the happiness of the boudoir.
According to the description of Xin Jue, this Men Xin Jue serves as an auxiliary and needs the real secret method of performing exercises of the Hehuan Sect in order to achieve the effect of gathering yin and replenishing yang.
Jiang Ran sighed in his heart, "No need!"
Even if it is this harmonious art, he has no one who can perform it now. No matter how advanced the Hehuan Sect's method is, it is of no use to him.
Is it really possible to steal incense and jade by relying on the ability of a rooster and a dog?
However, as a man, he feels quite good about having obtained the Harmony Technique.
With this ability, you can always feel more confident.
Finally, the whole thing was sorted out.
In addition to internal strength and BUFF, he also gained an extra six months and seven days of life.
Now Jiang Ran's life span has reached four years, ten months and twenty-one days.
Approaching the five-year mark!
It is gratifying to have made considerable progress.
Just as he was thinking of this, he saw Li Tianyu coming back carrying two human heads.
"Brother, there is no one worth mentioning, but these two are on the list. One has a reward of 300 taels, and the other has a reward of 200 taels."
Li Tianyu sighed, like a hunter going up the mountain and finding only two mice.
Jiang Ran didn't mind it and asked him to pack his head and stuff it into the carriage.
This carriage was not sold until Jiang Ran exchanged all the heads for silver rewards.
There is nothing better than using it to hold human heads.
Then I took stock of my things.
Li Tianyu collected various types of elixirs and broken silver from these people.
The group of people separated for a moment and then continued walking forward.
The area is densely forested and the roads are quite difficult to walk.
So I walked slowly.
Tang Huayi looked up at the sky:
"I'm afraid we won't be able to reach our hotel before dark."
Now I have been traveling around the world for a long time and I have a clear goal.
Jiang Ran no longer cares about where he goes.
Study the maps available on the market as much as possible, judge the distance before and after, and plan the route.
To avoid not knowing the depth and sleeping in the wild every three days.
Then I encountered all kinds of bad things.
But looking at it today, I guess I will have to sleep in the wilderness again.
Fortunately, everyone is an expert in this area.
I walked forward again and had good luck.
In the middle of the mountain, there is a dilapidated Taoist temple... The plaque has fallen off, and I don't know its specific name. The temple is dedicated to Sanqing.
However, these three brothers are now lying down and standing, and one of them is missing.
It looks quite desolate.
Li Tianyu packed up the horse, freed it, and tied it up again before it could get away with it.
A group of people tidied up a clean area in the main hall of the Taoist temple.
Tang Huayi found the woodshed, which contained a lot of dry firewood. After getting it, Tian Miaomiao volunteered to bury pots for everyone to cook.
Jiang Ran was instantly horrified!
Tian Miaomiao's cooking skills can be described in one sentence... stew yourself in an iron pot!
She is not only able to make delicious food that is both unsightly and unpalatable.
What's more, if she gets anxious, she can give up all of herself.
For the sake of her physical and mental health, Jiang Ran asked her to give up her ambition, pointed to a corner of the ruined temple, and asked her to change places to count ants.
Tian Miaomiao suddenly felt depressed.
I feel that I am very incompetent as a maid, and Jiang Ran does not support her work, which is really difficult.
Finally, the flames rose, and it was Li Tianyu who was cooking.
Tang Huayi refused to touch Yang Chunyu and asked Jiang Ran to cook. Everyone collectively opposed it.
Only Li Tianyu is left for training.
But so far, his cooking skills have not surpassed Luo Qingyi's.
At this time, Jiang Ran and Tang Huayi would miss that upright figure.
The fire was sizzling and the aroma of food was flying.
The hazy light and shadow illuminate the statues of the Three Pure Ones with a bit more warmth.
Jiang Ran stared at the fire in a daze, and Tang Huayi's voice came to his ears:
"What are you thinking about?"
"ah?"
Jiang Ran seemed to be really distracted. Hearing this, he was stunned for a moment. After coming back to his senses, he said:
"Think of something..."
"Can't tell?"
"It's not that I can't say it... I just haven't thought about it and don't know how to say it."
Jiang Ran smiled:
"Some time ago, at Ziyue Villa, Lin Wanyi and Dugu Xiong came to surrender.
"Said there is a huge force behind me..."
Tang Huayi glanced at Jiang Ran:
"You're right, you do have a huge force behind you now.
"One is the Blood Knife Hall, and the other is the Luo Hua Yan Yu League.
"Now that the Blood Knife Hall has settled in the East County Mansion, its power will inevitably expand further...
"Based on this, we may be able to take down all the Thirteen Gangs in the future.
"Before you left Ziyue Villa, weren't you also planning Qingfeng Pavilion?"
Jiang Ran touched his nose and smiled:
"So, I suddenly thought of a possibility."
"What's possible?"
"You said... is it possible for us to design a sword-wielding division outside the imperial court?"
Jiang Ran took a wooden stick and gently drew it twice on the ground:
"Cooperating with the imperial court, specializing in dealing with right and wrong in the Jianghu... His subordinates are all knife hunters.
"We directly communicate with the imperial court. As many wanted criminals as there are in the imperial court, they can be handed over directly to us, and then we will distribute them to the hands of those who want to catch them.
"Let them investigate, capture, and kill. After bringing them back, I will hand them over to the court in exchange for the reward.
"Send it to them again..."
Tang Huayi blinked:
"But...how is this different from them receiving the reward directly from the court? They still have to go through your hands...it's all unnecessary."
"It's different."
Jiang Ran smiled and said:
"I can set up an arsenal here.
"Every time they complete a knife-catching mission, they can get a certain amount of merit.
"If you have enough merit, you can enter the arsenal and choose a martial arts."
Before he said this, Tang Huayi felt that Jiang Ran was talking about castles in the air and rootless duckweeds.
But as soon as these words came out, it was like a magic needle fixing the sea.
Tang Huayi's eyes lit up immediately:
"If that's the case, then this will definitely happen...
"It's just that you have so many martial arts skills to set up an arsenal?"
"It's not even close now."
Jiang Ran took a look at what he had learned, and then said:
"But it should be possible in the future."
Instead of just focusing on rewards, Jiang Ran felt that the martial arts that rewarded his luck should be refined.
But if you have this idea, you can deliberately collect it in the future.
The families and sects living in the world, and even the families themselves, those who did evil things, dug up their roots and moved away the entire treasure house of their families...
This may not be possible.
If you go back and do the corresponding business a few more times, won't the arsenal in Jiang Ran's mind take shape?
Tang Huayi took a deep look at Jiang Ran and then said:
"Then things will be easier to handle. Now that you have power behind you, and your power is still expanding, the organization you mentioned has a foundation.
"Initial personnel can be selected from places like Blood Knife Hall, Luohua Yanyu League, Lin Family, and Dugu Family.
"By the way, you still have connections with the five major sword sects.
"I can't say anything else, but at least Liuyun Sword Sect and Shuiyue Sword Sect will definitely support you.
"There are also people who can join...
“Once this reputation is established, there will be real benefits.
"Why worry about not succeeding?
"I just have a question..."
She looked at Jiang Ran: "What good will this do to you?"
"Then there are so many benefits."
Jiang Ran smiled and said:
"One of the most obvious benefits is that in a monopolistic business, can you still worry about not making money?
"Even if you only earn 10% from each order, it's still a lot of money. Sitting at home, you can make a lot of money!"
Moreover, if these tasks are handed over by him...
He felt that he could live as long as heaven and earth.
Tang Huayi opened his mouth and suddenly muttered:
"Suddenly I feel that you and that Yan Wushuang are quite a match..."
As soon as I said this, I heard someone outside say:
"Brother, look there is fire over there."
Jiang Ran and others glanced at the sound and heard footsteps approaching them very quickly.
A man's deep voice said:
"In the wilderness, there are ruined temples and Taoist temples. There are friends from all walks of life. Don't make any mistakes."
A group of people behind him agreed.
Immediately afterwards, the deep voice was heard again. This time the voice was mixed with some internal force and spread far in the dark night:
"Guo Mao, the Fierce Sword Sect, and his junior brothers and sisters traveled through this place, but they had nowhere to stay.
"I see there is a fire here, could you please disturb me?"
Fierce Sword Sect?
Jiang Ran suddenly thought of Hu Nan.
That kid is also from the Fierce Sword Sect.
Just a smile:
"We are all friends when we go out, so you are welcome to come in."
