There was neither wind nor rain tonight, and the group also missed Sutou.
Entering the main hall gate, we met each other.
A lot of people from the Fierce Sword Sect came, more than ten people in total.
The leader is a man in his twenties, the same person who spoke earlier.
His voice was deep and his face was resolute.
The square face gave Jiang Ran an indescribable sense of déjà vu.
I couldn't help but think of Cheng Jimo...
Of course, this person's face is still not as square as Cheng Jimo's.
Every member of the Fierce Knife Sect is dressed in black, with flame patterns on their sleeves and waist.
After standing still, the leader clasped his fists and smiled:
"I've met you all."
Jiang Ran waved his hand gently:
"This Taoist temple has been abandoned for a long time. We are just here first. You don't have to be polite. Just do what you want."
When it comes to being away from home, that's about it.
Moreover, Jiang Ran noticed that the faces of these people seemed to have some different looks.
There is nothing relaxing between actions.
It seems that I am still worried about something...
It was just the first time we met, so Jiang Ran didn't have much to talk about.
Tang Huayi couldn't help but look at them twice more, and then glanced at Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran nodded to her and asked her to calm down.
Seeing the group of people looking for a place to sit down, someone among them let out a muffled groan.
But as if he didn't want to show weakness, he endured it forcefully.
The leading man looked back, his face a little solemn. He came behind the man, stretched out a hand and slowly entered the inner force.
After a while, the man's face looked a little better.
Looking at Jiang Ran and his party again, I felt relieved when I saw that they didn't ask any questions.
He opened his mouth and said:
"Find something to make a fire."
After receiving the order, several Lie Knife Sect disciples went out to search.
After Jiang Ran hesitated for a moment, he pointed out where the woodshed was.
The leader was slightly startled, and then thanked him with clasped fists.
Jiang Ran smiled and said:
"Speaking of which, the Fierce Sword Sect, one of the seven sects, has been famous for a long time.
"Not long ago, I met Hu Nan, the son of Master Hu, at Wangshui Villa. I heard that he had joined the Fiery Knife Sect."
"Hu Nan?"
The leader was stunned: "Do you recognize me, Junior Brother Hu?"
"We had a chance encounter."
Jiang Ran nodded.
The leader's face suddenly became calm. After hesitating for a while, he said with a smile:
"I see."
Then there was no more content.
Jiang Ran smiled when he saw this and didn't say anything more.
The two sides were silent for a moment, and Tang Huayi chuckled:
"I wanted to strike up a friendship with someone, but I didn't expect that they didn't want to pay attention to you at all."
Jiang Ran rolled his eyes at her:
"They looked hurriedly, their faces were quite frightened, and some of them were injured. They must have encountered something.
"When I asked just now, it was just because of my close relationship with Hu Nan.
"Since they don't want to involve us in this whirlpool, there is no need to get to the bottom of it."
Tang Huayi nodded:
"You finally learned not to mind your own business."
"..."
Jiang Ran rolled his eyes: "What are you talking about?"
The two of them chatted casually in a low voice, and when they looked up again, they saw that the few disciples of the Fierce Sword Sect who had gone out to collect firewood had returned.
It's just that both of them don't look very good-looking.
After entering the door, keep your head as low as possible.
Occasionally, he glanced at Jiang Ran and the others secretly, then quickly lowered his head.
Sneaky and weird-looking.
One of them even whispered a few words into the ear of the leader. The leader's face suddenly changed, and there was even a hint of fear in his eyes.
Jiang Ran saw that the expressions on their faces were like a revolving lantern, and it was quite interesting to see how they changed.
Suddenly a thought came to his mind and he asked Li Tianyu:
"Where is the carriage?"
"It's just outside the woodshed."
Li Tianyu replied casually.
The case was solved.
Jiang Ran immediately understood what was going on with these two disciples of the Fierce Sword Sect.
The carriage was just outside the woodshed. The two men had just gone to the woodshed. When passing the carriage, they could not help but smell the smell of blood.
With their current appearance, how could they turn a blind eye to the carriage smelling of blood?
Once I lift the door curtain and take a look... my dear, there are several heads in the carriage!
Now when I come back and look at my group, I wouldn't be sorry for the people in the carriage if they didn't have such expressions.
I'm afraid this may be a big misunderstanding.
Jiang Ran sighed and saw that although the leader of the other party looked ugly, he was also quite forbearing.
There was no rush to explain.
After all, it is difficult to explain clearly.
It's not that I'm afraid that I can't explain clearly, but that I'm afraid that the other party won't believe me, and I'm afraid that there will be hidden suspicions. Who knows where I'm thinking of, and if I keep talking about it in vain, it will be endless.
It's better to stay silent for the time being and just live in peace with each other.
In fact, the same was true. Time was passing by every second, and everyone on Jiang Ran's side closed their eyes and rested.
However, the more the members of the Fierce Blade Sect sat down, the more they felt like the ground under their feet was burning their buttocks.
Gradually, he began to feel uneasy, and those who had remained silent could not help but speak:
"Why is there no movement yet?"
"She has great martial arts skills, so she should be fine."
"We shouldn't leave like this..."
"But they are right. If we stay there, we will not only be unable to help, but will become a burden."
"Hey, what should we do? Junior Brother's life or death is still uncertain."
"No, I can't sit down anymore."
A disciple of the Fierce Sword Sect stood up with a roar:
"Brother, we can't wait any longer.
"If something really happens, it will become our inner demon from now on.
"Let's go out and look for it. Even if we fight to the death, it's better than just living here."
The man at the head had been sitting cross-legged in meditation. After hearing these words, he slowly opened his eyes.
He didn't know what kind of martial arts he was practicing, but when he opened his eyes, it seemed like a ball of flame was burning.
After glancing at the speaker, he breathed out softly:
“When I first entered the profession in the past, my mentor once warned me that chivalry must always come first.
"Fire fire becomes a sword, forever guarding my way!"
"You are right. Even if I protected you and my own life today, if I lose the way in my heart... I will be nothing more than a walking zombie from now on!"
Having said this, he slowly stood up, stretched out his hand to hold the single sword at his waist, and slowly unsheathed it.
The blade pointed at Jiang Ran.
"Who exactly is your honorable master?
"Where did the head in the carriage... come from?
"Please tell the truth!"
Jiang Ran closed his eyes tightly. He was just closing his eyes to rest his mind. Hearing this, he opened one eye, glanced at the person opposite, and smiled helplessly:
"If I said that they are evil people and they all have the means to die, would you believe it?"
The leader was stunned for a moment, and moved the single sword in his hand slightly downward a few inches:
"Who is that distinguished driver...?"
"Down here..."
In the middle of speaking, Jiang Ran suddenly turned his head and looked out the door.
The leader subconsciously followed Jiang Ran's gaze and found nothing. A look of anger suddenly appeared on his face:
"Are you kidding me?"
Jiang Ran was stunned, and immediately understood what he meant, and smiled helplessly:
"You are overthinking, it's just that someone is coming."
"Where are the people?"
"far away."
"...Why don't I know?"
"Because your internal strength is not as good as mine."
"You said you weren't just teasing me?"
People from Lie Dao Sect are inherently fiery, which is related to the martial arts they practice.
Now I am so angry that I can no longer suppress the anger in my heart.
The sword in his hand shook, and with a roar, the blade actually burned with flames.
The fire turned and headed straight towards the river.
"presumptuous!!"
When Tian Miaomiao saw this, her eyes lit up, she shouted loudly, and she grabbed a black iron axe, swung it into a round shape, and rushed forward.
Ding!!
There was a soft sound, fire splashed out, and the blade and ax collided.
The face of the leader opposite changed slightly, and he felt his mouth was numb:
"What a powerful force!!"
Tian Miaomiao was also surprised: "You can still hold the knife?"
He looked back at Jiang Ran and muttered:
"Why did I meet so many masters after meeting the young master..."
However, she was not afraid. Instead, she became more enthusiastic and shouted:
"You deserve a fight!!!"
After he finished speaking, he swung the black iron ax in his hand again.
Her moves are actually very simple. They are clumsy and skillful, but in fact they are not clever at all. Some of them are all about brute force.
However, this brute force was overwhelming, and he showed a magnanimity that could defeat ten people with one force.
When Jiang Ran and others saw this, they all moved back, for fear of being affected by her axe.
When this girl started to move, she would not be recognized by her relatives.
Why did Tian Xiwen always yell for her to stop in the past?
That's because I don't dare to rush forward...
Otherwise, she would kill her brother in a matter of minutes.
The leader's face was calm, and his sword skills were measured and controlled. Sometimes there was a flame burning on the sword, and sometimes it dissipated completely.
But after experiencing the previous scene, he no longer had a head-on confrontation with Tian Miaomiao.
After several fights, he saw Tian Miaomiao's weakness. He nodded slightly and spotted a flaw. Just as he was about to take off the black iron black ax in Tian Miaomiao's hand, he heard a burst of laughter:
"Where have my disciples and grandsons of Mr. Liehuo gone? It turns out they are fooling around in this ruined Taoist temple!"
Upon hearing this voice, the expressions of the members of the Liehuo Sect suddenly changed.
"It's him!"
"He actually came."
"I came just in time, I was going to find him."
"But, if he comes...then..."
Several people from the Fiery Fire Sect were discussing when they heard a gust of wind howling.
A figure that looked like a madman rushed into the Taoist temple.
He crashed directly into Tian Miaomiao and the senior brother from the Fierce Sword Sect.
The two people were fighting at a critical point. When they heard something was wrong, they turned around at the same time, greeted each other with swords and axes, and then fell towards the intruder together.
Above the blade, flames blazed.
The black ax is dull and overwhelming!
The figure of the coming person changed very quickly, like a ball of light and shadow, with hands and eight legs stretched out from the middle, and many phantoms greeted the sword and axe.
Just listen to two bumps.
The man at the head of the Fierce Knife Sect stepped forward and took three steps back in an instant. The blade in his hand trembled and there was no longer any spark of fire.
Tian Miaomiao felt that her palm was empty. When she raised her head again, the black iron ax in her hand had been knocked out.
She put up the awning with her hands, looked at it for a while, and then took a few steps to the side. Then she stretched out her hand and caught the black ax that shattered the roof and then smashed it back in her palm.
He turned to look at the person coming, furious:
"Who are you? Do you know that my ax was hard-earned? If I lose it, where will I find this handy weapon?"
The visitor had already stood still.
But he was an old man with messy hair, gray and white hair, and a face full of arrogance. Although he was not too tall, he was majestic.
There was a hideous scar on his face from the eyebrow bone on the left side to the corner of the mouth on the right side. This blow was extremely vicious, as if he was going to cut his head in half.
Among the scars, there are also burn marks.
After Jiang Ran took a look, he looked at the knives in the hands of the Fire Sect group, and suddenly realized.
While he was pondering, he saw the man raise his eyes and look at Tian Miaomiao:
"court death!"
As he finished speaking, his body rolled, and when he explored his palms, Tian Miaomiao felt that the palms under his feet seemed to be overgrown with weeds. For a moment, he couldn't tell which ones were real and which ones were fake.
Just when he was about to ignore the situation, he hit it directly with the axe.
He saw a ray of fire stabbing him diagonally.
The messy palms suddenly slapped on the ground at the same time, then flew up, fell in the air, and continued to press towards Tian Miaomiao.
Why is Tian Miaomiao afraid of him?
Just as he was about to round up the black iron axe, he felt his wrist tighten. When he raised his head again, the old man had caught it without knowing it.
A force entered her body along her meridians. Just as she was about to use her strength to resist, she felt a void all over her body, unable to move at all.
I didn't understand why, and I felt my other hand tighten.
When I looked back, I saw that it was my son.
A wave of warmth flowed into the body, and the next moment, the body seemed to explode. Jiang Ran felt that Jiang Ran's internal energy was following his own meridians, crushing him all the way, and directly driving the other party's internal energy out of his body. Only then did he stop.
The old man was inadvertently surprised.
There was a slight tremor under his feet, and he let go of Tian Miaomiao's hand, squinting and looking at Jiang Ran on the other side:
"who are you?"
"Master Jiang!!!"
Before Jiang Ran could answer, he heard a voice coming from outside the door.
Everyone present looked outside and saw two people flying towards the door.
To be precise, a person flew over with one in his hand.
The one who shouted these words was the one holding the slip...
Jiang Ran recognized this person's identity at a glance:
"Hu Nan?"
It's just not the same as when I was in Wangshui Villa that day.
Hu Nan looks a little embarrassed now.
There were quite a few bruises on his body, but they didn't look like they had been beaten, but rather like they had been dropped.
When Jiang Ran was carrying Hu Nan, he suddenly felt familiar.
When I looked carefully, I was surprised:
"Shuang'er!?"
The visitor's expression changed when he heard this. He glanced at the man in his hand, then at Jiang Ran, and suddenly smiled:
"Brother Jiang."
When the words came to this, the two people had already entered the Taoist temple.
Tang Huayi and others also stood up one after another.
The scene looks somewhat strange.
The old man stood in the middle, opposite Tian Miaomiao and Jiang Ran.
On the left and right sides is the Lie Dao Sect on one side and Tang Huayi and others on the other.
Blocking the door were Hu Nan and Ye Jingshuang.
People from all directions seemed to surround him.
It’s just that the old man was not false at all. He looked at this, then that, and raised his eyebrows:
"Who is Brother Jiang?"
"Hahaha."
Hu Nan laughed wildly when he heard this:
"Old grandson, you are dead today! I tell you, your arrogance has come to an end!
"Just forget it if you bully us young people!
"Now that Master Jiang is here, he will naturally make the decision for us."
Everyone present fell silent.
I really want to say that this Daxia Jiang is also a young man...
And he looked younger than many people present.
The old man was stunned when he heard this, glanced at Jiang Ran, and said suddenly:
"Could it be...that you are Jiang Ran?"
As soon as the word "Jiang Ran" came out of his mouth, there was a sudden gasp of air.
The leader of the Liehuo Sect hurriedly retracted the single sword in his palm and looked at Jiang Ran in disbelief:
"Is it true that your Majesty is really the Jingshen Sword Jiang Ran?"
"Don't dare."
Jiang Ran smiled:
"This is Jiang Ran."
He glanced at Hu Nan again and said with a smile:
"I won't see you for a while. How are you doing, Mr. Hu?"
Hu Nan laughed twice:
"Dr. Jiang is teasing me again. Do you think I'm okay if I look like this?"
"good."
Jiang Ran was also happy and set his sights on Ye Jingshuang again.
But now when I look again, I find that although this person looks exactly like Ye Jingshuang, there are still some differences between his features.
She has a bit more smile than Ye Jingshuang, and she always has a smile on her face.
"Are you...Ye Jingxue?"
Jiang Ran suddenly realized: "That's quite naughty."
"You recognize it now?"
Ye Jingxue was stunned, then rubbed her nose:
"They say we look alike. Even my father sometimes gets us wrong. I didn't expect that I couldn't deceive you...
"It seems that the rumors in the world are good. You and my sister are indeed entangled in it. Otherwise, how could you see the difference in such subtleties?"
"Cough cough cough..."
Tang Huayi coughed twice and turned to look at Jiang Ran. His eyes were dull, but there was an indescribable taste in his eyes.
Dayou...my sister-in-law meets my sister-in-law again...you can't treat one favorably.
Jiang Ran rolled his eyes and was too lazy to pay attention to her.
Then his eyes fell on the old man:
"Senior, do you want to leave?"
The old man paused and reluctantly twitched the corner of his mouth:
"What nonsense are you talking about, you little kid? Why do I want to leave?"
"Just now, the senior's gaze is no longer as strong as it was at the beginning, and his eyes are wandering, looking for flaws.
"Don't you want to escape?"
Jiang Ran smiled:
"Speaking of which, I haven't asked senior Gao for his name yet."
"Master Jiang, this person is Ke Beisheng! People in the Jianghu world call him Moli Weisou. He is a man of great martial arts and heinous crimes.
"Don't let him get away!!"
The leader of the Fierce Fire Sect spoke quickly.
Jiang Ran suddenly realized:
"Moli Weisou? I remember you... The Sword Holder offered a reward of four thousand taels of silver. It's not a lot of money, but I heard that he was a master of evil ways... he acted eclectically, did not submit to Zuo Daozhuang, and lived freely on his own.
"Okay, okay, I can't find it normally. I didn't expect to find it here.
"Senior, I miss you because of your old age, and I don't want you to suffer more.
"In this case, you can kill yourself."
What he said was gentle, as if he was not asking someone to commit suicide, but was offering gentle words of comfort.
