Chapter 1 Jiang Ran
Barren hills, heavy rain!
A leisurely whistling sound suddenly sounded from a ruined temple in the middle of the mountain.

It's like a dragon singing in a big lake, like a tiger roaring in an empty valley.

As soon as it came out, the heavy rain seemed to stagnate slightly.

Its sound spreads over a radius of more than ten miles, and it takes a full cup of tea to rest.

When the howling sound subsided, a figure flew out of the temple.

Before you get a stone tablet engraved with the three characters of "Mountain Temple".

A distance of Zhang Xu, the man gave it away with one palm.

Then there was a loud noise, and the stele was shattered by his volleying palm, and the broken stones flew around.

A flash of lightning pierced the sky, revealing the figure's true face, but it was a handsome young man.

At this moment, he looked at his palm fixedly, his face was full of astonishment, and he muttered to himself:
"This Jiazi's internal strength is actually so tyrannical?"

Thinking of this, his heart skipped a beat.

A translucent panel appeared in front of him.

【Knife Catcher System】

[Host: Jiang Ran]

【Target: Iron Swallow Zhou Chang】

【Capture Progress: Completed】

[Award obtained: One Jiazi internal strength (already received)]

[Nine Deaths: Repairing...]

[Remaining lifespan: one year and 29 days! 】

"One year and twenty-nine days..."

Looking at this line of text, Jiang Ran didn't feel disappointed at all, instead he let out a low laugh.

The laughter was small at first, then it became louder, and in the end it was even more manic, full of joy!

"This is me!!"

After a long time, Jiang Ran took a deep breath, stopped laughing, and his eyes flickered.

Turn around and set foot in the ruined temple again.

Come to the fire and sit down. Beside the fire are a bundle and a black single sword with sheath.

He put the knife aside, took out a roast chicken wrapped in oiled paper from the bundle, skewered it with wooden sticks, and put it on the fire to warm it up.

But in my heart, I think back to the nine deaths recorded in the medical book.

Nine deaths and no pulse is an incurable disease.

This disease does not originate from the twelve regular meridians, the eight extra meridians.

The root cause is that people with this disease have nine more hidden veins than ordinary people.

Its symptoms are weird, not so much a disease, but a constitution different from ordinary people.

There is a saying in the medical classics: those who have lost their pulse after nine deaths are like a funnel in their bodies, and their vitality flows by itself, and there is no cure for it.

Therefore, although there are not many people with this physique since ancient times, none of them can live beyond the age of 20.

And Jiang Ran is exactly 20 years old this year...

After traveling to this world 20 years ago and being carried home by that slovenly old alcoholic.

In the past 20 years, Nine Deaths and Jue Mai has been a knife hanging over his head.

He watched the knife fall little by little, but there was nothing he could do.

It seems that since the day he crossed, his life has come to an end.

The old drunkard went to great lengths for this, and Jiang Ran himself was also tossed a lot.

But all in vain.

When this system was awakened, there was only one month left before his deadline!

"If it weren't for the old drunk who suddenly sent a letter asking me to go to Cangzhou Mansion to save him.

"If it wasn't for the lack of money, as a last resort, I could only go to uncover the list and catch the snitch in exchange for some money.

"I'm afraid that even if I die, I won't know that there is a system in my body...

"It's really a misfortune and a blessing."

Jiang Ran let out a sigh of relief, with a strange expression on his face.

After all, he did not expect that the activation condition of this system was to reveal the list!

Moreover, he only completed the mission once.

As a result, he not only received a reward of internal strength.

Even this hopeless near-death can be repaired by this.

"Doesn't this mean that as long as I continue to arrest those wanted criminals, I can even...can completely cure this near death?"

Thinking of this, my heart is full of fire.

And it's not difficult to do this.

In today's world, there are not many other things, but there are many arrest notices and wanted criminals.

Although the Jin Chan Dynasty was not a chaotic world, it was not a peaceful one either.

Especially since the 13th year of Tianzong, the end of the ten-year war among the Five Kingdoms, the national power of the Jinchan Dynasty has declined, and the world has become more and more unfriendly to ordinary people.

The imperial court was weak, and disputes arose everywhere.

There are many gangs in the market, and there are frequent fights.

In every chaotic battle, many corpses will be left behind.

There are even masters who, relying on their martial arts, run amok in the world, committing crimes, and regard human life as worthless.

If the government is unable to catch the thief, it will issue arrest documents at sea, and ask the masters in the rivers and lakes to catch them on their behalf.

The knife catchers in the Jianghu refer to the kind of people who make a living by offering rewards and bonuses.

Judging from the name of his system, it is also aimed at this item.

"In other words, there are good medicines to save my life everywhere in this whole river and lake!!"

He clenched his fist lightly, calmed his mind, and resisted the urge to rush into the county seat immediately to reveal the notice.

Whenever there is a calmness in major events, this matter will not be accomplished overnight.

Now that my life has been extended for one year, I can gradually figure it out.

Don't make the mistake of rushing.

Thinking of this, he exhaled lightly, took off his drenched clothes, and planned to use the fire to dry them.

Although it has been written in martial arts novels, Jianghu masters can dry clothes through internal force.

The reason why Jiang Ran didn't do this was very simple... because he didn't know how to do it.

Just as he was about to find some logs to hang his clothes on, he suddenly heard a burst of wind.

Jiang Ran was slightly taken aback. In this weather, there are still people walking outside?
And listening to this movement, it seems that they are coming straight here.

Sure enough, within a short while, the visitor had already arrived at the gate of the ruined temple.

Jiang Ran set up the crossbar with wooden sticks, and looked back, and saw a woman with a cold face stepping into the ruined temple.

When the four eyes met, Jiang Ran was slightly taken aback.

Unexpectedly, it was a woman running around all over the mountain without sleeping at night.

The woman was staring at the shirtless Jiang Ran, her originally cold eyes widened for a moment.

Jiang Ran wasn't afraid to look, he was just shirtless and his pants were still on.

I just silently looked at this uninvited guest...

She is not very old, so she should be as different as herself.

His face was exquisite, his face was pale, and he looked a bit downcast.

There were injuries on his body, more than one place, and his plain white dress was already stained with blood, which was melted away by the rain, and his whole body showed a tinge of blush.

That pale face also came from this.

She has a sword in her hand, and the light of the sword has already been unsheathed.

I don't know how many times better than Jiang Ran's single knife bought from a blacksmith's shop for two taels of silver.

No matter how you look at it, this seems to be a heroine who has just experienced a lot of fighting in the rivers and lakes.

It's just that this would seem to be dumbfounded.

Jiang Ran was a little puzzled, so beautiful?

Glancing at the long sword in her hand, she felt that she should be reminded.

Then he coughed lightly:
"Girl, you are holding a murder weapon, are you planning to rob money, or are you planning to rob sex?"
