Martial Arts: Gain a Jiazi internal force at the beginning!

Chapter 160 Small Town
After Jingtan layman finished speaking, Jiang Ran, Tang Huayi and Ruan Yuqing who were present all fell silent.

Even Mr. Da, who had been writing beside him, couldn't help but look up at Layman Jingtan.

Seeing that his eyes were full of memories and pleas, he sighed softly for a while, and muttered in a low voice:
"It's really true that people are obsessed with themselves if they are not charming."

Jiang Ran glanced at him, then suddenly patted his knee:
"not good!"

Everyone present was shocked.

Layman Jingtan also looked around, thinking that the Blood Knife Hall was making a comeback, and wondered in his heart, why did it come so quickly?
Then I heard Jiang Ran say:
"I'm careless, I forgot that Mr. Big is still there.

"I'm afraid the old man will remember everything that senior just said about the past."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Da quickly covered his notebook, fearing that Jiang Ran would come and snatch it away.

Layman Jingtan shook his head lightly:
"It doesn't matter...it's not a shameful thing at all."

"That's right, the layman is a sensible person, but he is much better than a certain junior!"

Mr. Da glanced at Jiang Ran, then stroked his beard:

"But in this way, the old man understands.

"Why did you have that war seven years ago...

"At that time, the old man was quite far away from where you were, and I wondered that although you two had some entanglements with each other, there seemed to be no enmity. There was no reason for this battle to come so well.

"It turns out that the root is actually this Guan Jinqiu."

Layman Jingtan nodded lightly:

"These old events were originally intended to be kept in my heart for the rest of my life.

"If it wasn't for this time that I wanted to borrow Jiao Weiqin from Jiang Shaoxia to fulfill Jin Qiu's last wish, I wouldn't have confessed.

"Please also ask Mr. Da to keep it secret for me."

Mr. Big nodded:
"It's easy to say... the reason for this, I will be included in the century-old cabinet, and it will be made public after a hundred years since I entered the cabinet.

"As for what was said in The Legend of the Golden Chan and Heroes, it's just a little excuse.

"In the future, future generations will read history and combine with each other to get the whole picture of today."

Layman Jingtan thought for a moment, then nodded.

A hundred years later, he has long since passed away, and no matter what happened at that time, it has nothing to do with him.

Finally, Layman Jingtan looked at Jiang Ran:

"Jiang Shaoxia, I have already explained the whole story to you.

"I don't know how the young hero decides?"

"It's still like this..."

Jiang Ran said: "Wait until the Tea Tasting and Piano Appreciation Conference is over before making a decision. At that time, if the Jiaowei Qin is still in Jiang's hands, it must be lent to a layman."

Layman Jingtan knew that this was the limit that Jiang Ran could reach.

Immediately stood up, clasped his hands and clasped his fists:
"Thank you Jiang Shaoxia."

"Don't dare."

Jiang Ran didn't want to accept this gift, so he stepped aside a little.

Master Jingtan said:
"In addition, I have a merciless request..."

"Senior, let's talk."

Jiang Ran waved his hand lightly.

"Since we have to wait until after the eighth day of October, there is still some time between this place and Sunseting.

"I plan to stay with Young Master Jiang... so that I can take care of him."

Since Jiang Ran agreed to borrow the piano, at least until the eighth day of October, the piano must not be lost in the slightest.

Although judging from the martial arts that Jiang Ran showed today, it is already extraordinary.

But people's hearts are unpredictable, and martial arts is the foundation of one's life, but it is by no means everything.

It is always safer to have multiple people around to take care of you.

Jiang Ran didn't refuse when he heard the words, and even if he did, wouldn't Layman Jingtan not follow?
What else can we do then?
killed?
Not to mention that the reason why Layman Jingtan is by his side is to help him protect Jiao Weiqin.

Even if he wasn't, he was still a righteous man, and he didn't have a name on the most wanted list, so killing him would be a waste of time.

And it will ruin your own name.

Jiang Ran was going to be a knife catcher, but when he turned around, he was on the most wanted list because he killed innocent people indiscriminately... That would be a big joke in the world.

Now that they say hello to each other, the topic gradually changes.

Layman Jingtan is well-educated and knows astronomy and geography. Although he is indifferent, once chatting, it is quite interesting.

Jiang Ran saw that what he had said to the piercing blood array was very logical, so he asked for advice.

Layman Jingtan knows everything he wants from others.

As for the evaluation of the formation, the result is still four words: bullshit does not make sense.

He shook his head slightly:
"The combination of four phases and five elements is a good idea, but the combination is extremely rough.

"Xuanyuan Yidao is not good at learning, and he shows off everywhere, if he encounters something he doesn't understand, let's just let it go.

"It's perfectly fine to fool people.

"Once you meet someone who understands the key points, it won't work.

“I took action earlier because I saw the flaw in his formation.

"He wants the four phases and the five elements to complement each other, but unfortunately there is always a moment when they don't restrain each other, but they don't interfere with each other.

"The Four Phase Sword couldn't kill me, and the Five Elements Lost Trace couldn't trap anyone, so naturally I took it down in one fell swoop."

Immediately he named the key points one by one.

Although Jiang Ran thought it sounded obscure, nine times out of ten he didn't understand what it meant.

But also listen attentively.

There are quite a few people in the arena who can arrange formations.

Among the five major sword sects, Danyang Sword Sect and Liuyun Sword Sect, the combination of the two formations is extremely difficult even for people like Shi Pingzhang to break.

The enchanting ghost wall in the Ghost Palace is also based on formations, and the enchanting orders are written on the wall.

People are trapped in the formation and can't escape, they can only be affected by the obsession order all the time.

If it weren't for the protective body of the Good Fortune Heart Sutra, once he stepped into it, even if Jiang Ran could suppress the confusion in his heart for a while, he would definitely get lost in it after a long time.

Then there will no longer be that kind of good thing like jumping out of the range of the formation.

In terms of emotion and reason, Jiang Ran felt that he should know a little bit better.

Now that I listened carefully and calculated carefully in my mind, I faintly got some insights.

After waiting for Master Jingtan to finish speaking, he said:
"The humble opinion of the younger generation, if it is as the senior said, it is better to separate the four phases and five elements.

"Although the five elements lack swords, they also have their own power.

"And the four-phase attack is strong and fierce, but after a while, although it is not as difficult to break as the five elements, it is definitely more powerful.

"It's better than holding each other back and being seen through."

"That's the truth."

Layman Jingtan nodded repeatedly: "Unfortunately, Xuanyuan Yidao can't see where this joint is, so he thinks he is brilliant."

Jiang Ran sighed:

"The younger generation is just giving an evaluation based on the current situation, it's not me who is smart, but the seniors who are smart.

"Otherwise, if this junior himself, he can only use martial arts to forcibly break the formation."

"Jiang Shaoxia is interested in the formation?"

Layman Jingtan looked at Jiang Ran.

Jiang Ran nodded: "I am indeed interested, but it's a pity that I have nowhere to study."

A smile appeared on the corner of Jingtan's mouth when he heard this, he dug out of his sleeve, took out a bamboo slip, and handed it to Jiang Ran.

"This is?"

Jiang Ran took it subconsciously.

"Young Master Jiang agreed to lend me his Jiaowei when we first met, which shows that we are worthy friends.

"Since you are curious about the match, I happened to dabble in it.

"This [Hundred Formation Diagram] is a notebook of essays that I have studied together with the formation over the years.

"There are both simplifications and profound methods in it. Although it is inappropriate in itself, it can also help Jiang Shaoxia understand the changes in the situation.

"Now I will give it to Jiang Shaoxia to form a good relationship."

Layman Jingtan smiled lightly, but his tone was sincere.

Jiang Ran smiled slightly, knowing that Lay Jingtan said this because he was actually worried that he would renege on his promise and get fat in the future.

Now I have agreed to the other party and accepted the other party's favor.

After the eighth day of October, it's really hard not to borrow.

Smile immediately:
"Since that's the case, the younger generation will be disrespectful."

Seeing Jiang Ran accept the bamboo slips, Layman Jingtan breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that more than half of the matter had been completed.

Looking around again, except for Ruan Yuqing who was still listening, everyone else was asleep.

Even Mr. Big was leaning against the tree trunk with his pen in his mouth and snoring loudly.

In the end, Ruan Yuqing couldn't help falling asleep until the middle of the night.

Jiang Ran and Layman Jingtan talked all night.

Waiting for the dawn to break in the east, everyone woke up and found that Jiang Ran was still talking about the formation with Layman Jingtan.

Ruan Yuqing shook his head:

"You guys are still talking..."

Seeing them waking up, Layman Jingtan seemed to be pardoned for a moment:
"Great...It's dawn, shouldn't we also set off?"

Jiang Ran glanced at Dongfang with some disappointment, and sighed:

"Unfortunately, I still have a lot of questions to ask."

"Ask again tomorrow."

Ruan Yuqing smiled and said, "It's still some time before Sunseting. During this period of time, Layman Jingtan will be with us. There is plenty of time for you to study."

Jiang Ran nodded when he heard the words:

"That's true, the way of formation is really broad and profound, and it is definitely not accomplished overnight.

"In the next few days, I will trouble the layman."

Layman Jingtan regretted his proposal to go with Jiang Ran and the others yesterday.

That night, he was tortured deeply.

Jiang Ran has good qualifications, high comprehension, and the ability to infer other things from one instance.

As he said, this Tao is so broad and profound that ordinary people may not be able to understand it all even if they spend a lifetime of energy.

Although Layman Jingtan claims to be a master, it is impossible for him to be proficient in everything.However, although Jiang Ran was a beginner, he got started quickly.

The questions asked were tricky and weird, some of which even Layman Jingtan himself had never thought about. How could there be an answer to this?

In order not to show timidity, he talked about him from left to right.

After one night, there are too many to list.

It made Jingtan Layman feel miserable.

And as a senior, naturally he can't lie with lies.

Besides, the matter of Jiao Weiqin has not been settled yet, so they can only muddle along like this.

It was extremely difficult.

After finally staying up until dawn, thinking about the next period of time, Jiang Ran would have to be entangled in all kinds of tricky and weird questions, and suddenly felt a little hopeless.

How do other people know the suffering of Layman Jingtan?
Tang Huayi even patted Jiang Ran on the shoulder:

"Jingtan Layman is a senior, pedantic heaven and man, I am very relieved that you have such an opportunity.

"You must study hard, and don't disappoint this good relationship."

"..."

Layman Jingtan thought to himself, don't say a few words...

Then Jiang Ran nodded again and again:

"It's natural."

Layman Jingtan: "..."

Ruan Yuqing looked at Jiang Ran in surprise.

'Li Tianxin' talked to him like this, in the past he would never give up, but today he is so obedient in order to learn the formation.

His martial arts are so high, but he can still learn from them with an open mind, and he doesn't even care about bickering with 'Li Tianxin'.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help secretly admiring him.

After everyone woke up, they cleaned up separately, while Luo Qingyi made breakfast, everything was done with ease.

After eating, Jiang Ran and others gathered the people from the Blood Knife Hall together, dug a big pit and buried them.

After death, people should still be buried in peace.

There are ferocious beasts in this forest, there were some people there last night, if they leave today and leave the corpses behind, there is no guarantee that they will not fall into the belly of wild beasts.

In this cold world, there is a little tenderness that is rare.

Jiang Ran restrained the bones for them.

After waiting for everything last night, everyone went on the road again.

It's just that when Jiang Ran was about to recite his name, Layman Jingtan helped Jiang Ran recite it first.

By the way, he asked about Man Shengming.

Jiang Ran said casually, but Jingtan Layman was a little surprised.

See Jiang Ran and the others were ruthless in killing people yesterday, and even robbed the dead of their belongings.

I didn't expect that there would be such a life-saving act.

For the time being, the road was fairly peaceful, but Jiang Ran felt that it was not good to be in such a hurry.

Previously, I planned to travel all the way to the mountains and rivers, so I never rode a horse.

But now that there were many injuries, he couldn't carry it like this all the time. Jiang Ran planned to buy a carriage and a few horses in the next town, so that everyone could save some energy when moving.

It takes half a day to go like this.

Layman Jingtan and Gu Xizhi have known each other for many years, and they really understand each other very well.

Gu Xizhi, who left last night, really followed behind everyone this morning as he said.

He doesn't care about anyone, just like a normal person.

Jiang Ran called him to go with him, but he just said: "If the way is different, don't conspire with each other."

Jiang Ran didn't argue with him anymore.

Half a day later, Jiang Ran and others came to a town that looked quite dilapidated.

Tang Huayi looked up at the mottled wall, and couldn't help being speechless:
"Can there be a carriage for sale in this place?"

"It will never be so poor that..."

Jiang Ran smiled: "Go in and have a look."

As soon as they stepped into the town, everyone felt that sights came from everywhere.

Some are ordinary people walking on the street, some are beggars begging on the side of the road, there are also guests talking loudly in restaurants, and there are also women who are posing in front of the windows of brothels.

Ruan Yuqing frowned slightly:
"Be careful, this town is wrong."

Tang Huayi sneered:
"Another person who didn't know how to live or die came to the door."

"Everyone stay calm."

Jiang Ran smiled:
"Let's go, find a place to eat first."

Layman Jingtan sighed in his heart, Jiang Ran still had a big heart.

This town is obviously extremely weird, and he still has time to eat first...

Just as he was about to say something, he saw Ruan Yuqing, Tang Huayi and others nodded.

I was a little confused for a while.

He doesn't know Tang Huayi's disguised 'Li Tianxin', but Roushuijian still has a great reputation.

Now that the town is weird, shouldn't Jiang Ran be advised not to make more troubles and leave as soon as possible?
Why are you messing around with him?
But since I'm new here, it's not easy to speak casually.

I could only follow Jiang Ran, watching him pick and choose from behind him, and finally came to a dilapidated restaurant.

“In the whole town, this is the only restaurant that I can look at.

"Make it easy, take a bite and let's go."

Jiang Ran called everyone to sit down, and shouted again:

"Where's Xiao Er?"

"I'm coming."

A young man who looked extremely skinny trotted all the way to the crowd:
"Meet a few guest officers... what do you want to eat?"

"Is there any wine?"

Jiang Ran asked.

"Have!"

The little second brother smiled immediately: "Guest officer, you are here. Our restaurant, there is no such thing as running on the mountain and swimming in the water... there is no such thing. But good wine is enough... You don't know. Our shopkeeper I have a jar of 30-year-old Nuerhong!

"This is the treasure of our store!"

"30-year-old Nuerhong?"

Ruan Yuqing froze for a moment:
"This……"

The so-called daughter red is often buried deep in the ground when the daughter is born.

Wait until the year of Ji, when you get married, take it out to entertain relatives and friends.

Often it is more than ten years...

The 30-year-old daughter of the store's treasure, Hong, doesn't it mean that the shopkeeper's daughter is still unmarried at the age of 30?

In this day and age, if she hadn't wandered around in the world, she could definitely be called an old girl.

Even those who are wandering around the rivers and lakes, those who are still unmarried at the age of 30 are still in the minority...

Luo Qingyi blinked:

"Then the 30-year daughter Hong is probably worth a lot, right?"

"That's naturally extraordinary... How many of you are here?"

The waiter in the shop looked at the money bags on Jiang Ran and the others' waists.

Jiang Ran took out an ingot of ingot and said softly:

"Give me an altar."

"okay!"

When the second brother saw the money, his eyes immediately lit up.

He wiped it in his hand, took another bite, and then hurried to get the wine.

In the end, he didn't take two steps before being called back by Jiang Ran.

I also ordered a few side dishes with wine, and staple foods such as steamed buns and biscuits.

The little second brother's legs are like hot wheels, and he disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Layman Jingtan said softly:

"There's something wrong with this restaurant, Jiang Shaoxia...it's better not to drink this wine."

Jiang Ran nodded:

"Don't worry senior, I'll drink less."

While speaking, he took off the wine gourd by hitting his waist, and gulped down several mouthfuls.

"..."

Layman Jingtan felt that what he said was in vain.

Just a few sips, most people would be drunk directly.

Sighing, I didn't want to say anything more, and decided to wait and see what happened.

After a while, the second brother came from behind and carried a wine jar with mud on it.

Put it gently on the table, turn around and walk away.

When I came back this time, I had a big tray in my hand.

There are pork and mutton on it, and the stir-fried vegetables are all cold, and the combination of meat and vegetables is very good.

The second brother cheerfully put the tray on the table and said with a smile:
"The dishes are ready, please use them slowly..."

Jiang Ran nodded and picked up the chopsticks as if to pick up vegetables. But just when the chopsticks were about to fall, they suddenly turned sharply and made a ding, but they were caught on a dagger.

The waiter who was poking at Jiang Ran's waist with a dagger was stunned for a moment, and his face was full of ferocity:
"die!!"

Use all your strength to press the dagger, trying to poke into Jiang Ran's heart.

Unfortunately, nothing happened.

As soon as Jiang Ran pressed his chopsticks, there was a bang, and the little brother knelt on the ground involuntarily.

Kneeling so hard, the bluestone ground burst apart.

The bones made a crackling sound.
