Jiang Ran saw Yan Wushuang with his own eyes yesterday, in the capital.
How could it be possible that he had left the capital half a month ago?
He was calculating in his mind, but with a calm smile on his face:
"So that's it. In fact, this trip was based on my chance encounter with Vice President Yan, so I took the liberty to pay him a visit.
"Unexpectedly, Vice Chairman Yan is not in the capital."
"Hahaha, what are you talking about, Mr. Jiang? Even without Vice Chairman Yan, we can't even invite such a distinguished guest as Mr. Jiang."
Changsun Wuji smiled and said:
"It would be better if Hero Jiang could stay in this Baizhen Building for a few more days.
"Speaking of which, it's really wonderful that Hero Jiang gave us the elixir recipe.
"So far, many have been sold, and sales records in various places have been recorded. Are you interested, Master Jiang? Let me take a look at it?
"It would also be nice to know how much benefit you have gained from this so far."
Jiang Ran was totally fine with this and nodded lightly:
"Okay, if that's the case, then I'll bother Changsun Hui."
"It should, it should."
Changsun Wuji clapped his hands gently, and someone brought the account book, and then handed it to Jiang Ran for him to read through.
Jiang Ran was reading while Changsun Wuji was still helping to explain.
After taking Jiang Ran through the account books, he finally settled the money for Jiang Ran.
In just six months, the amount that could fall into Jiang Ran's own pocket had reached six thousand taels of silver.
Although it doesn't seem like much... it's a cornucopia.
You can keep making money.
Changsun Wuji smiled and said:
"In recent years, there have been constant turmoil in the world, and the medicinal materials required for this detoxification pill are not particularly precious.
“The efficacy is the best among the same price range.
"For this reason, not only people from the Jianghu community come to buy, but many chambers of commerce and even ordinary people will buy some for emergencies.
"I expect sales will be even better in the next six months."
Jiang Ran nodded lightly:
"Jiang is really a layman regarding this matter, so I will leave everything to the head of Changsun."
"Hahaha, it's easy to talk, easy to talk, making money, I, Baizhenhui, have always accepted everyone who comes."
When Changsun Wuji said this, he paused slightly and glanced at Jiang Ran, seemingly hesitant to speak.
Jiang Ran smiled brightly and saw that he had something to say, so he didn't ask.
Just wait quietly.
Sure enough, after a while, Changsun Wuji said:
"Master Jiang... I heard a rumor recently... I don't know if it is true or not?"
"oh?"
Jiang Ran smiled:
"Most of the rumors in the world are untrue. Changsun Huishou should not take them seriously."
"Hahaha."
Changsun Wuji nodded quickly:
"That's right, that's right. So, why don't we ask Daxia Jiang for verification?"
"So, the rumor heard by the leader of the Grand Sun Council is about me?"
"Exactly."
Changsun Wuji said softly:
"I heard that in recent days, Shanhaihui, the first to beg for Tu Lie, received a letter of greeting from Daxia Jiang.
"Said I was going to visit at midnight...
"I don't know if this is true or not?"
He raised his head and looked at Jiang Ran, his eyes burning.
Jiang Ran did not avoid his gaze, he just smiled and nodded:
"This rumor... is true."
"..."
Changsun Wuji's eyes changed, he pondered slightly, and then he said:
"What misunderstanding does Jiang Daxia have with Shen Tu Lie?
"We are both members of the political circles in the capital, and we can't see each other without looking up, so we can be considered to have some degree of friendship.
"As the saying goes... in life, many friends lead to many paths.
"If there is any misunderstanding, I can make peace with it.
"It is expected that with Jiang Daxia's identity and martial arts skills, Shen Tulie will definitely be willing to have a good relationship with Jiang Daxia... I don't know, I can also get more help in the future."
Having said this, it can be considered a sincere statement.
Jiang Ran's smile did not change and he just said softly:
"I killed Shen Tuhong."
"It turns out he was killed..."
Changsun Wuji nodded, and after saying half a sentence, he paused, his eyes turned into ice, and he looked up at Jiang Ran in disbelief:
"Kill...kill who?"
"Shen Tuhong."
Jiang Ran said:
"Shen Tu Lie's biological brother, Shen Tu Hong!
"The heads have been cut off.
"But I don't know that Changsun will be the leader. Maybe he can make peace?"
"..."
This is nonsense!
Changsun Wuji felt his head was buzzing.
This is a deadly feud!
Great hatred!
There is no possibility of peace anyway.
No wonder Jiang Ran was full of hostility when he sent a greeting card. He not only sent arrows to the greeting card, but also threatened to pay him a midnight visit.
A serious visit should not only be at midnight, but even during the day, it must be before noon.
It is considered disrespectful to visit friends in the afternoon.
Thinking of this... Changsun Wuji breathed out lightly:
"So that's it, it's Meng Lang.
"From this point of view, I really have no possibility of making peace."
Jiang Ran smiled:
"The president of the Changsun Association has this kind of intention, and Jiang is very grateful."
"Is there anything you need my help with?"
Changsun Wuji said:
"Based on Jiang Daxia's character, he would never kill Shen Tuhong without any reason.
"Although I don't know the specific reason for this matter, I am willing to believe Jiang Daxia... If there is anything you need me to do, just speak up."
"That's not necessary."
Jiang Ran shook his head:
“It’s just a whirlpool, so why bother getting Sun Hui into the game first?
"Actually, coming to visit today is a bit inappropriate..."
"These words are not pleasant to hear. Not to mention that Daxia Jiang and I, Baizhen, will have business dealings. Even if they don't, don't they still have some friendship with our vice-president?
"When you come to the capital, why not come and take a look?
"To be honest, if Hero Jiang hadn't been staying at the Princess Mansion, I would have wanted to pay him a visit first.
"Well, don't leave at noon today. I've already arranged a banquet for everyone. We won't go home until we get drunk."
"Hahaha, the leader of the Changsun Council has this intention, how can I dare to shirk it?
"Then..."
When he said this, he glanced at Tang Huayi and said with a smile:
"You won't come home until you're drunk!"
What I say next is irrelevant.
Talk about romance, relationships, rivers and lakes, grievances and grudges.
As the leader of the Baizhen Society, Changsun Wuji is a master he has truly met before. Although he has a pleasant smile and is full of kindness, he has actually been through all kinds of storms.
The conversation also opened Jiang Ran's horizons.
By the time it was noon, Changsun Wuji had indeed prepared a large table of delicacies.
There was no one else at the table, only Jiang Ran and Changsun Wuji were toasting and changing glasses, chatting and laughing loudly, and the more they talked, the more they felt like they were in agreement.
This meal lasted until evening.
Jiang Ran was supported by Tang Huayi and left Baizhen Tower.
Changsun Wuji was sent three streets away, only to be carried back by his subordinates.
Tang Huayi supported Jiang Ran all the way back to the princess's house. After entering Jiang Ran's room, Jiang Ran was stunned and raised his head.
"You've been playing this scene for a long time."
Tang Huayi glanced at Jiang Ran:
"Those who didn't know better thought you were really drunk."
"Are you planning to do something while I'm drunk?"
Jiang Ran glanced at Tang Huayi.
Tang Huayi pouted:
"It's a pity that you have a good capacity for drinking. Otherwise, it wouldn't be a bad idea to cook the rice while you're drunk."
"You don't want to lose face?"
"In front of you, I don't even need to wear clothes, let alone my face?"
Tang Huayi smiled and said:
"This eldest grandson Wuji is lying."
This naturally refers to things about Yan Wushuang.
Jiang Ran breathed out softly:
"I hope he really doesn't know."
Tang Huayi came to the ceremony, rummaged around for a while, and took out a set of night clothes:
"I will go with you?"
"I'd better go alone."
Jiang Ran said:
"The capital city is very complicated. I got drunk today in front of so many people.
"No one would have thought that I would go out tonight."
Tang Huayi nodded:
"Well, be careful. If it doesn't work, just arrest the eldest grandson Wuji directly. I will dig out his secrets with my inner demon thoughts."
"This is the only way to do it when necessary."
Jiang Ran smiled and didn't object.
After a few more explanations, Jiang Ran left the door. Tang Huayi did not go back. He took off his clothes and lay on the bed. His body bones cracked for a while, and his whole body changed into Jiang Ran's appearance.
She planned to pretend to be Jiang Ran here to hide from others.
Even if someone comes to inquire about the truth, they can only see Jiang Ran sleeping soundly in the room.
As for Li Tianxin...how many people in this world care about Li Tianxin?
…
…
Under the night, a person shuttled through the night like a stream of light.
The capital is worthy of being a capital. Even at night, thousands of lights are always on.
With a few steps, Jiang Ran landed on the Baizhen Tower of Baizhen Club.
As soon as he started to move, he walked off the eaves in a completely unnatural state.
His footsteps landed on the wall, and his body was suspended in the air. His feet walked on the wall, but they did not fall down, and they made no sound.
After finding a window, he pushed it open and got in.
He pressed his palm against the wall, and when he stretched out his foot, it landed not on the floor, but on the ceiling.
He was hanging upside down from the ceiling and moving forward.
This is the Latent Shadow Magic Step!
The body blends into the darkness and can shuttle and move in an instant, and can also stick itself to any place without falling off.
This is the best way to sneak in.
He walked forward, based on what he had learned during the day, and soon came to the door of a room.
But before entering, Jiang Ran stopped.
There's an ambush inside.
There are at least ten masters hiding around.
"It seems that the insinuations during the day attracted Changsun Wuji's attention...
"This place is fake, just a trap."
Jiang Ran thought for a moment and was about to leave, but listened carefully:
"No... the person among them has long breathing, deep energy, and the overall rhythm is the same as Changsun Wuji.
"Is he using his body as bait?"
Thinking of this, he swayed and reached the eaves of one side of the house.
I saw a man hanging upside down on the eaves with a weapon in his hand. He was just waiting for the prey in the room to arrive before rushing in.
It's a pity that Jiang Ran was right next to him, but he didn't notice it at all.
Following his gaze, I looked into the room, and sure enough I saw Changsun Wuji sleeping soundly on the magnificent bed in the middle of the room.
Jiang Ran raised his eyebrows, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth:
"interesting……"
His breathing rhythm was steady, as if he were asleep.
However, how can our breathing after falling asleep be exactly the same as when we are awake?
Even if some martial arts can be operated secretly after falling asleep, they will not change at all.
This person is pretending to sleep!
Even so, Jiang Ran was not in a hurry.
Then just wait.
Jiang Ran has nothing but patience.
Time just passes by minute by second.
In the blink of an eye, the third watch gong sounded, and the entire capital gradually fell into darkness.
Changsun Wuji, who had been lying in bed 'sleeping', suddenly turned over and stood up:
"Here comes someone."
As soon as he said this, Jiang Ran saw the man hanging on the eaves next to him with a focused expression, and he got into the room in a flash.
At the same time, people hiding in other places also jumped out one after another.
Some of these people were hiding in the closet, some were hiding under the bed, and some were hanging outside the window. There were really people everywhere.
The group of people lined up around Changsun Wuji, knelt on one knee, and met at the head of the meeting.
Changsun Wuji stood up and said:
"At this moment, there is still no sign of anyone. It seems that he is really drunk.
"Since he didn't come, Wushuang probably wasn't doing it for him yesterday...
"That's good.
"You continue to guard here, I want to go out."
"yes."
After everyone agreed, Changsun Wuji had already changed into a different outfit, also wearing black clothes and covering his face.
It's just that this man is a rich man, so his night clothes are actually embroidered with a few gold threads.
When running in the air, the golden thread turns into a golden void mark, which is very beautiful.
Jiang Ran followed Changsun Wuji quietly. The two of them went one behind the other, and within a moment, they had arrived at the southeastern corner of the capital.
These are all wealthy families, and the houses are bigger than the others.
The eldest grandson Wuji came to a mansion. Jiang Ran took a look at the plaque, but there was no word on it.
This basically means that no one is using this house.
But there were no weeds in the house, and it was obvious that someone was secretly tidying them up.
Changsun Wuji did not push the door in, but climbed over the wall and fell into the courtyard. He drove forward on a familiar road and soon arrived at a hall in the house.
There is a Buddha statue in the hall.
It's just that this Buddha statue didn't hold the flowers and smile, but stretched out a hand.
Changsun Wuji took out ten taels of silver from his arms and threw it into that hand.
Then the Buddha's hand sank, there was a click sound, and a secret door suddenly opened on one side.
After this sinking, the silver also fell down, but it fell to the other side and fell behind the wall.
Jiang Ran was surprised:
"How much money must be behind this wall?"
Just when he was surprised, Changsun Wuji had already slipped into the secret door on one side.
Jiang Ran observed it quietly and made sure that no one was around, then he came to the Buddha statue and studied it for a while.
Then I went out to find a stone, weighed it, and found it was exactly ten taels.
Then he threw it casually onto the Buddha's hand.
As a result, the Buddha's hand didn't move at all.
"..."
Jiang Ran touched his chin:
"Is it because the size is wrong... What is the principle of this?"
Jiang Ran discovered that although this was a martial arts world, there were some things he was unreasonable about.
Just like that person yesterday, with half a jade flute, he was able to give the illusion that he was around.
Even if Yuxiao has a big background, its function similar to that of a telephone is really surprising.
And if the Buddha statue in front of you requires ten taels of silver to open, then it must have been designed from the beginning so that objects of a specific shape and weight can trigger the mechanism.
Jiang Ran sighed and took out twelve taels of silver from his arms, feeling a little distressed.
He shook his hand and threw it onto the Buddha's hand.
Sure enough, a click was heard.
The secret door opened again.
Looking up at the Buddha statue smiling kindly, Jiang Ran gritted his teeth a bit.
Although he doesn't love money as much as the eldest princess thinks.
But... who would dislike having more money?
After looking at the secret door, Jiang Ran stepped inside, while the road went all the way down.
Not far away, there is an iron gate.
The iron door had been opened by someone at this time, and a voice came from inside the door:
"You should also understand that the reason why I do this is to protect you."
The person who spoke was Changsun Wuji.
Jiang Ran followed him in in a flash, and found a simple room inside.
At this time, a person was sitting cross-legged on the bed with his hands shackled. It was none other than Yan Wushuang.
Her eyebrows were lowered, and there was no expression on her face.
Sitting opposite her was Changsun Wuji.
He is admonishing with sincerity:
"At this point, isn't everything I've done enough?
"If it weren't for me, Baizhen Society would have existed in name only long ago.
"Your grandfather handed over the Baizhen Society to me back then for this reason... What have I been working so hard for over the years?
"Wushuang, how could you hurt me behind my back like this?
"Tell me the truth, why did you go out yesterday?
"Who did you go to after hearing about that incident?
"As long as you tell me the truth, I will treat this as if it never happened!"
Yan Wu rolled his eyes, slowly raised his head, looked at Changsun Wuji and shook his head gently:
"I didn't find anyone, and I didn't tell anyone.
"However, grandpa handed over the Baizhen Society to you just because I was too young to take on the important responsibility.
"Baizhenhui was in your hands back then, and it really maintained the situation.
"However, it is me who has grown the Baizhen Society over the years!
"I remember your kindness and have never thought about competing for the position of leader.
"But... I can't understand what you are doing anymore.
"The Baizhen Society should be subordinate to the dynasty, and all starting points should be for the people.
"But you asked me to go to Jinyang Mansion to discuss business with Tianshang Que.
“Now that Tianshangque has provoked disputes between the two countries, we can no longer hide it.
"If that deal had been negotiated at that time, we would now be considered treasonous and treasonous. As the leader of the association, have you ever thought about such a result?"
