Not only was it difficult to sleep, he also felt that his bed was very crowded...
There's no way around it. With three people lying on one bed, it's really crowded no matter how you look at it.
Jiang Ran looked at the Tang poems on the left, and then at the Tang paintings on the right.
Start recalling how things got to where they are now.
In the final analysis, it was Tang Hua who was talking nonsense.
How about sleeping with him in Qiuciyi?
Although Tang Shiqing was not angry about this, she made a request that seemed very reasonable.
She also wants to sleep with Jiang Ran...
When Tang Huayi heard this, he expressed that he also wanted to participate.
Finally, the two people climbed onto the bed and looked at Jiang Ran together:
"Are you not sleeping?"
Jiang Ran thinks he can stay up...
But after struggling for a while, Jiang Ran felt that this was wrong.
This is my own bed, why don’t I sleep on it?
Then it became the current situation.
The poetic sentiment of the Tang Dynasty is on the left, and the artistic conception of the Tang Dynasty is on the right.
Both girls were like zombies, lying upright.
Jiang Ran was infected by this atmosphere and could only lie down straight.
After thinking for a while, Jiang Ran said:
"If you can't sleep, why don't you go back to your room and sleep?"
"I've fallen asleep."
Tang Shiqing responded softly.
Jiang Ran just thinks he believes it.
Suddenly he reached out and poked Tang Huayi:
"Why are you joining in the fun?"
"I want to supervise you here."
Tang Huayi probably thought about it for a long time before he came up with such a 'reasonable reason':
"After all, you are not married yet. I am afraid that you will make a mistake."
"..."
Jiang Ran smacked his lips:
"none of your business!"
"Don't you know the heart of a good person?"
Tang Huayi snorted:
"I'm not only afraid that you will make a mistake, I'm also afraid that you won't know how to do it!"
"???"
Tang Shiqing was stunned and raised her neck:
"What not?"
Tang Huayi spoke freely and opened her mouth to say something. Jiang Ran was so happy that she covered her mouth:
"Shut up!
"Are you ashamed to be from a big girl's family?
"And, you will?"
"I'm well-read!"
Tang Huayi sneered:
"Do you think I'm as ignorant as you? Uncle Duan even threw you on the Madam's bed, and you can even jump out of the window and run away..."
"Oiran, Oiran!!"
Jiang Ran corrected, is the old madam talking nonsense?
"The old courtesan who is more than twenty years older than you is almost here."
Tang Huayi said:
"In short, I have learned a lot. If there is anything you don't know how to do, just ask me and I will make you succeed."
"..."
Jiang Ran covered his forehead, feeling confused.
Tang Shiqing is still asking:
"So, what is it? Why does Huayi know it but I don't?"
"Sister, please come here."
Tang Huayi immediately waved to Tang Shiqing.
Tang Shiqing really came over and planned to learn from Tang Huayi.
"You guys...just calm down and calm down."
Jiang Ran couldn't listen anymore: "It's late at night... If you must sleep here, then go ahead. If you can't sleep, go back to your room and sleep."
"kindness."
Tang Shiqing agreed and then relaxed a lot.
Then he turned over slightly, facing away from Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran suddenly felt the softness on the back of his hand, his mind flashed, and he subconsciously searched for it. After realizing it, he quickly raised his hand.
Tang Huayi snorted:
"I fell asleep too."
As he spoke, he turned his back to Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran stared at the bed tent above his head, his eyes a little straight.
This is a bit... a bit torturous.
Looking from the window, the night is still long now. How can I stay up this night?
Jiang Ran thought, just close your eyes and sleep.
If you really encounter something, it doesn't seem to be a big deal.
But these eyes just can't be closed.
Sometimes I have random thoughts in my mind, so I just close my eyes and feel cruel... Let them fully understand my respect.
But after hesitating for a long time, I finally suppressed the idea.
He now understands the pursuit of the Demon Cult...
It's great, just follow your heart, nothing else matters.
I have been a human being in two lives and have been influenced by various influences. Although I think I am not a gentleman, I cannot help but overcome the hurdle in my heart.
I always feel that something is missing...
But what's missing?
Jiang Ran stared at the tent, thinking for a long time, and finally felt sleepy.
I felt very uneasy this time.
Sometimes it feels like you are in the clouds, and the surroundings are soft and soft. No matter where you are, it makes people feel happy.
Sometimes I have some strange dreams.
I dreamed of wandering around the world with Tang Shiqing to catch a bandit who committed evil crimes.
The two men fought from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain and killed all the bandits around them. Then they entered the Zhongyi Hall and found that the person sitting in the first place was actually Tang Huayi.
Tang Huayi laughed wildly, and with a wave of her hand, she and Tang Shiqing were tied up somehow.
Then Tang Huayi ordered his men to dress them in phoenix crowns and harems, and to marry them as the wives of Yazhai.
There was a lively wedding, and Jiang Ran got married inexplicably.
Sitting on the bed with Tang Shiqing, still shyly waiting for Tang Huayi's arrival...
Tang Huayi came to the bridal chamber drunkenly, lifted the hijabs off their faces, and then threw them onto the bed.
He also muttered:
"This bed is so small...it's so crowded..."
Jiang Ran's eyelids swayed, he yawned and turned over, not knowing who he was holding in his arms.
The voice in my arms was very impatient:
“It’s really crowded!”
Jiang Ran then opened his eyes.
It's not bright yet outside the window.
Tang Huayi slept so unconsciously that she was half-pressed there by Jiang Ran, unable to move and could only express dissatisfaction.
The waist was tight, and when I looked around, I saw that there was an arm on the waist and a leg on the leg.
Needless to say, it is exactly the poetry of the Tang Dynasty.
Jiang Ran stood there quietly and reacted for a while before remembering what happened last night.
The sleepiness is gone.
He patted his face gently and carefully turned over.
As a result, his arms tightened... and Tang Huayi was pillowing him under his head.
He had no choice but to gently pull Tang Huayi to open a gap, and then carefully pulled out his arm.
Then he took off Tang Shiqing's arms and legs bit by bit from his body.
At this moment, he lightly pressed his palm on the bed, and his figure suddenly appeared and was already standing on the ground in front of the bed.
At this point, Jiang Ran let out a big sigh of relief.
Looking at the two girls lying on the bed again, Jiang Ran smacked his lips and planned to turn around and go out.
As soon as the door opened, he saw Tian Youfang walking from a distance.
Close the door immediately.
Tian Youfang glanced at Jiang Ran in surprise, feeling that Jiang Ran seemed a little weird and guilty today.
"Son."
Tian Youfang cupped his fists and saluted Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran nodded slightly:
"Why are you here?"
"...Didn't you say that I would come to see you early this morning?"
Tian Youfang was even more confused.
Jiang Ran was stunned when he heard this, and then he remembered that he had indeed told him this yesterday.
He nodded immediately:
"Wu Di is here."
Tian Youfang was stunned and looked around subconsciously.
"Now I have arranged it somewhere else."
Jiang Ran said:
"I came here just to ask you, but are you sure that even if you stand next to him, he won't recognize you?"
Wu Di pondered for a moment and said:
"But my subordinate is not good at the art of disguise."
"That's okay... What I care about is, if your face is different, is there any other way he can identify you?"
"As long as you don't use the poison in front of him, I guess he won't be able to find out."
Tian Youfang smiled and said:
"This subordinate is quite confident."
"That's good."
Jiang Ran nodded:
"I'll get someone to arrange a disguise for you later. In a short period of time, you'll have to come into contact with me.
"But the name Tian Youfang... I'm afraid you can't use it."
"Okay, this was originally a pseudonym."
Tian Youfang smiled:
"In that case, let me call you... Fang Liang."
"Fang Liang..."
Jiang Ran thought for a moment and nodded:
"Okay, then you go ahead and I'll greet you later if you have something to do."
"My subordinates resign."
Tian Youfang clasped his fists slightly, turned around and left.
Jiang Ran walked to the courtyard and sat down.
He looked at the surrounding rooms and shook his head slightly.
The inn was lively two days ago, but now it's quiet.
Just as she was thinking about it, she heard a creaking sound and Chu Yunniang yawned and came out with a basin in her hand.
After seeing Jiang Ran, he was obviously still upset.
But after hesitating for a moment, he accepted the gift honestly.
Jiang Ran nodded:
"Just go and get some water. I need to wash my face."
"..."
Chu Yunniang went there reluctantly.
After a while, he brought a basin of water with a smile:
"I'll wait for you to wash your face."
Jiang Ran found that Chu Yunniang's smile was much more sincere this time:
"Did you practice in front of the mirror last night?"
Chu Yunniang's smile suddenly became stiff...because Jiang Ran was right.
After she went back, she really looked in the mirror and tried it.
Not to mention that Jiang Ran found it unsightly, Chu Yunniang herself found it outrageous.
Under that situation, if Jiang Ran could be attracted to him, then Jiang Ran could do nothing more than that.
However, Chu Yunniang will not be convinced or admit defeat.
Since the problem is your own expression, then focus on solving this problem.
Then she practiced ogling in front of the mirror...
Unfortunately, this cannot be accomplished in a day or two.
After practicing for half a night, I found that the difference was too big.
If so, practice smiling.
In the middle of the night, I finally managed to change this smile from stiff and cold to a slightly softer one.
I was happy to feel that I had made some progress... but Jiang Ran saw through it at a glance.
Jiang Ran smiled, and while washing his face with water, he said:
"Not bad, keep it up, it's good for the eyes and the eyes."
"..."
Am I here to please you?
Chu Yunniang gritted her teeth in her heart.
But he still nodded:
"Yes, sir, I understand."
Jiang Ran was also a little dumbfounded and waved his hand:
"Go ahead and do whatever you need to do. By the way, bring me pen, ink, paper and inkstone."
Chu Yunniang was stunned, and after leaving with the bucket, she quickly brought the Four Treasures of the Study.
She was studying ink for Jiang Ran next to her, planning to see who Jiang Ran was writing to... and what ulterior purpose it contained.
It turned out that Jiang Ran was not writing a letter.
But I am making pictures.
The brush strokes outline a simple human figure, holding a knife in his hand and making a chopping gesture.
"Is this a sword technique?"
Chu Yunniang looked at Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran nodded slightly:
"Just now I suddenly remembered the soldier who was chatting with me on top of the city.
"It's a bit of a fate... I'm about to leave Jinyang Mansion, so I plan to leave him a small gift."
"This can't be the Nine Frightening Blades, can it?"
Chu Yunniang's heart suddenly became full of energy, she wanted to see if there was a way to crack this sword in the book of swords.
I heard Jiang Ran smile dumbly:
"Although when the old drunkard taught me the Jingshen Nine Swordsmanship, he didn't say anything like not spreading it to outsiders or accepting disciples.
"But after a long chat and a drink, I taught you the Nine Frightening Knives... Did you not wake up, or did I drink too much?"
Chu Yunniang curled her lips:
"This is true... How can the Nine Shocking Swordsman be passed lightly?"
"It's not impossible."
Jiang Ran thought for a moment and said:
"If you like something, you will pass it on."
"Then what kind of person pleases you?"
Chu Yunniang was a little curious.
"Now that you are not so pretentious, I find you very pleasing to the eye."
Jiang Ran smiled.
Chu Yunniang was stunned. She had just been attracted by this sword technique that seemed to be the Nine Shocking Swords, but she had forgotten her usual plot.
But after hearing what Jiang Ran said, Chu Yunniang still asked:
"Then can you pass on these nine shocking swords to me?"
"Can."
Jiang Ran nodded.
Before Chu Yunniang was happy, she heard Jiang Ran say:
"Use your [South Wind Hidden Sword Style] in exchange."
Chu Yunniang suddenly stared:
"The evil heretic turns out to be coveting my family's martial arts. Don't even think about it!"
"Look, I'm going to fall out when I say I'm going to fall out. When you asked me if I could teach you the Nine Shocking Swordsmanship, why didn't you think that you were also coveting my unique skills?"
Jiang Ran rolled his eyes:
"To be honest, Miss Chu...I wonder if I can treat you.
"When you fell into my hands, I neither beat you nor scolded you, nor did I do anything wrong.
"Let me ask you, if we were in a different place, how would you treat me like this?"
"..."
Chu Yunniang was stunned by Jiang Ran's question.
These demon sect thieves naturally want to kill first and ask questions later. Why should they be captured?
If Jiang Ran had fallen into her hands, he would have died long ago.
But when this thought came to me, I was horrified.
Could it be that... I am more vicious than Jiang Ran?
After a second thought, he sneered again:
"If you don't kill me, you have other motives."
After finishing speaking, he suddenly remembered that he still wanted to seduce Jiang Ran and gain his trust.
Why did it suddenly self-destruct?
But if you say it, you obviously can't take it back.
Chu Yunniang could only stand there awkwardly, feeling uncomfortable all over.
Jiang Ran smiled:
"Then Miss Chu, what do you think I am planning?
"Is it the girl's peerless appearance, or is it the Nanfeng Hidden Sword Style? Or...are you planning to use you to intimidate you, a disciple of the Chu family?"
"...There are no other disciples in the Chu family."
Chu Yunniang spoke softly.
Jiang Ran was stunned:
"What's the meaning?
"To put it bluntly, Chu Nanfeng was a genius of his generation and the number one person in the world.
"Why don't future generations see and hear about the world?"
"..."
Chu Yunniang was silent for a while and said softly:
"My ancestor is naturally invincible in the world, but my father's qualifications are mediocre.
"It is difficult for him to master the peerless swordsmanship passed down from his ancestors.
"After a hundred years of waiting for our ancestors, someone with a conspiracy will come to our door.
"Kill my family and try to take away my Chu family's secret knowledge.
“My parents took me on the run and finally found a secluded place to live in seclusion.
"Unfortunately, my father was seriously injured and died soon after.
"Although my mother is sad, after all, I still have not grown up, so she... left a life to educate me.
"And he asked me to practice the Nanfeng Hidden Sword Style according to the secret manual left by my father.
"It wasn't until she felt that I was successful in my art that she died at my father's grave and went with him."
Jiang Ran listened silently and sighed softly:
"Do you know who did it?"
"Who else could it be?"
Chu Yunniang sneered:
"Of course it's you demon sect monsters."
Jiang Ran thought about it and asked:
"May I ask how old the girl is now?"
"After this new year, we will be twenty-three."
"That means she is two years older than me... How old was the girl when that incident happened?"
"...Why are you asking this? He only looks like four or five years old."
Chu Yunniang looked at Jiang Ran and frowned slightly.
Jiang Ran said thoughtfully:
"To be honest, the demon sect suffered a great disaster twenty years ago, and the previous demon lord and his wife both died.
"The disciples are scattered in all directions, and even today, not all of them have reunited.
"When something happens to your family, it's unclear whether they can protect themselves. How dare they try to steal your family heirloom?"
"That's not the Demon Cult, who else could it be?"
Chu Yunniang shook her head:
"The actions of your demonic sect are inherently confusing and cannot be dealt with by normal principles.
"What if you just like to be hunted down while trying to harm others?"
Jiang Ran smiled hoarsely:
"You are just like the eldest princess of the Qing Kingdom. There is no need to blame anyone... You believe in your heart that this matter is the work of the Demon Cult, so I am afraid that no matter how much I say, it will not help.
"I just hope that the girl will think more carefully about her actions in the future, so as not to regret her sudden actions when things come to pass."
Chu Yunniang was stunned when she heard this:
"You want to let me go?"
"It's a beautiful thought."
"Then what you said..."
Chu Yunniang almost died of anger.
"It's impossible to let you go now, but I won't lock you up forever."
Jiang Ran smiled and said:
"You will have to leave from now on..."
"..."
Chu Yunniang didn't believe Jiang Ran, she looked at him suspiciously.
Jiang Ran ignored her, but stared at the little man on the paper and wrote two more sentences.
Finally, I filled in two sentences.
[The parting ritual, if practiced diligently, can help kill the enemy.]
After finishing writing, I lightly shook the ink on the paper, waited for the ink to dry, and then put it into the envelope.
When I turned around, I saw Tian Miaomiao coming out of the house with her eyes closed.
Then he waved to her:
"Miao Miao, come here."
Tian Miaomiao came to Jiang Ran with her eyes closed.
Jiang Ran was about to give her the letter, but when he saw her eyes closed tightly, he couldn't help but ask:
"Why are you still closing your eyes?"
"This way I can sleep a little longer..."
Tian Miaomiao yawned and said:
"Sir...what do you call me for?"
Jiang Ran said:
"Reach out your hand."
As expected, Tian Miaomiao stretched out her hand.
Jiang Ran put the letter in her hand and asked her to hold it:
"Go to the government office and ask the governor to help find a man named Zhao Chen... and then give him this letter.
