Chapter 260 Reunion

The wine gourd is the wine gourd of the old drunkard.

Of course, Jiang Ran would not admit his mistake.

Ever since he was a child, he didn't know how many times he had drunk wine with this wine gourd.

Many of the mottled marks on it were made by Jiang Ran.

In this case, the person who took the wine gourd and asked him to meet at the Martial Arts Temple outside the city could only be an old drunkard.

As soon as he entered the city, this old guy discovered him?
Jiang Ran couldn't wait to see him at night. Since he let a child come in with a wine gourd to inform him, how could he stay away?

In this case, he naturally had to look for it.

If we can find him, we will push him to the ground and beat him up now before night!
But Jiang Ran soon discovered that this idea was still a bit unreliable.

The streets in Jinyang Mansion are not too spacious, but they are even more crowded with people coming and going.

In this situation, it is really not easy to find someone.

Jiang Ran wandered around for a long time, then jumped to a higher place to take a look... But until the end, he couldn't find any trace of the old drunkard.

With no choice but to return to the inn.

It was calm inside the inn.

Except that the snot-nosed kid was pulled into the room by Ye Jingxue and others to eat, there were no other changes.

It's just that the kid looks a little nervous.

Especially when he saw Jiang Ran, he felt like he was seeing a ghost.

Jiang Ran was a little puzzled, and Tang Huayi rolled his eyes at him:
"You showed your holiness in front of others and scared their children."

Jiang Ran smiled dumbly.

No wonder.

Just now in a hurry, he used the Intentional Flowing Light Technique, and his body turned into a stream of light, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Let alone a little kid who doesn't know martial arts, even a famous martial arts master may not be able to capture his movements.

As soon as the child raised his head, how could he not be afraid when a large living person suddenly disappeared?
Maybe he started to wonder if he had encountered some evil spirit, trying to trick him into finishing the meal and then eat him alive.

When Jiang Ran thought of this, he smiled slightly and came to the child:

"You...can you tell me what the old man looked like just now?"

The child heard Jiang Ran's soft voice. Although he was still a little uneasy, he was able to remain calm. He thought about it carefully and said:
"Just a...sloppy old man.

"By the way, he also has a knife hanging on his body. It's made of wood and is very delicate.

"I sent him a message. I originally wanted to use the knife as payment, but he was so stingy that he couldn't bear it. He only gave me a few pennies and asked me to buy candied haws."

wooden knife...

Jiang Ran was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly:

"Then besides asking me to meet him at night, did he have any other instructions?"

The child shook his head:
"Nothing."

"Okay, thank you very much. You can eat these as you like."

Jiang Ran pointed to the food on the table, then leaned on the chair, not knowing what to think.

Dong Qingcheng and others looked at each other in confusion. This was the first time they saw Jiang Ran like this.

I was a little stunned for a moment.

In the end, Dong Qingcheng was the first to speak:
"This...but what's the problem?"

Tang Huayi shook his head:
"Nothing, it's his master who ran away from home. I guess he is now thinking about how to deal with someone if he sees him tonight."

Everyone suddenly realized, and Li Xiuwu glanced at Jiang Ran in surprise:
"Your master also likes to run away from home?
"My master is like this too... I broke a broken jar of his a few days ago, and he was about to die.

"I didn't notice him for a moment, and he ran away.

"I don't know if I will bring a few junior brothers and sisters to the temple this time..."

Zhao Ansheng glanced at him when he heard this:
"Can you compare to Daxia Jiang? Your master just can't stand you destroying his belongings every day.

"This is why we moved overnight...

"As for your junior brothers and sisters..."

When he said this, Zhao Ansheng couldn't hold back his lips.

Li Xiuwu's master had a very good heart, and he hated to see his children suffer the most.

Every time he went out to travel around the world, he would inevitably bring a few children who were hungry and half-clothed back to Jiuzhen Temple, and he took them as his disciples and took good care of them.

This was how Li Xiuwu was brought back to Jiuzhen Temple.

And this habit has not changed over the years.

So much so that the population of Jiuzhen Temple is now extremely prosperous.

When Li Xiuwu heard what Zhao Ansheng said, he immediately wanted to retort, but after thinking for a long time, he really couldn't find anything to refute him. With no choice, he could only sigh.

However, Jiang Ran came back to his senses at this time and glanced at Tang Huayi:
"You come with me tonight."

Ye Jingxue looked at Tang Huayi, then at Jiang Ran, and fell into silence.

Tang Huayi nodded:

"Okay."

She doesn't have any stage fright.

Having said that, it's almost the same.

Things to do at Huweiguan should be done sooner rather than later. Dong Qingcheng and others had just settled down and had to set off.

However, in order to seek speed, a few people left their disciples here and allowed themselves to be driven by Jiang Ran.

Jiang Ran couldn't take care of them, so he asked Hu Nan to help with the arrangements for the time being.

Hu Nan didn't refuse. After getting Jiang Ran's order, he felt as if he had obtained the feather arrow, which made him feel arrogant.

Jiang Ran had no choice but to ask Li Tianyu to keep an eye on him again, so as not to cause any trouble and end badly.

Nothing much happened on this day.

In the blink of an eye, night has enveloped the earth.

Jiang Ran and Tang Huayi went out in starry night clothes. After climbing over the city wall, they rushed towards the Martial Arts Temple.

As for the situation and location of the Martial Arts Temple, they had naturally already found out.

In the early years, this martial arts temple was still very popular, but now it has long been dilapidated.

On weekdays, except for some beggars or people who really don't have money to stay in a hotel, no one passes by here.

When Jiang Ran and Tang Huayi arrived here, they saw no one else except two children of about ten years old hidden under the altar table.

The two children were alert and woke up immediately when they heard someone coming.

The older one quickly covered the mouth of the child next to him.

Jiang Ran glanced at them and smiled:
"Go to sleep then."

Then he sat on the floor, took off the wine gourd from his waist, and looked around:
"This old guy asked me to meet here, why haven't you come yet?"

"Don't worry..."

Tang Huayi took out a pack of dried meat from his pocket, took out a piece and stuffed it into his mouth. Before he could swallow it, he heard a loud swallowing sound.

Looking back, it was the two children who couldn't help but swallow their saliva when they saw her eating the meat.

Tang Huayi thought for a while and said:
"It's not good to eat at night... I won't share it with you."

The two children simply closed their eyes after hearing this, not wanting to look at her... If she doesn't give it, she won't give it. If you don't eat well at night, why are you eating so hard?

However, seeing that Jiang Ran and Tang Huayi didn't seem to have malicious intentions, they felt a little relieved.

The older one whispered to the children next to him:

"Go to sleep first."

He still had to keep an eye on these two uninvited guests.

Of course, just staring.

Two little beggars, living in the Martial Arts Temple, naturally have no right to call themselves masters.

Others passed by and even started talking.

They are all ordinary things...as long as they are not harmful to you, everything else doesn't matter.

Jiang Ran's eyes glanced at the two children again, then returned to Tang Huayi:

"Eat less, too."

"Then you should drink less."

Tang Huayi retorted.

Jiang Ran was speechless for a while, and just as he was paying no attention, he suddenly frowned slightly.

"coming?"

Tang Hua noticed that his expression changed and immediately realized something was wrong:
"not him?"

"Probably just passing through."

Jiang Ran shook his head slightly and didn't take it to heart.

But soon I realized something was wrong. The sound I heard was coming straight from here.

Moreover, there were a lot of people coming, and they all came at a high speed.

At this moment, Tang Huayi also heard the voice and raised his eyebrows slightly:
"There are thirteen riders in total? Who could they be?"

"Just look at it and you'll find out."

When Jiang Ran finished speaking, he noticed that the two children had already climbed up, with panic on their faces.

Apparently he heard the conversation between him and Tang Huayi.

After looking at each other, they actually crawled out from under the altar table and hid behind the statue of the God of War.Jiang Ran and Tang Hua were both stunned when they saw this.

Looking at each other, the same thought came to mind.

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves was very close, and a moment later, a loud bang was heard.

But the door of the Martial Arts Temple was forcefully broken open.

Looking up, 13 cavalrymen filed in, and they stopped before they reached the main hall of the Martial Arts Temple.

The leader, Wolf Gu Ying, turned his eyes and landed directly on Jiang Ran and Tang Huayi.

He gently pinched the horse's belly, and the galloping horse took him two steps forward and entered the main hall of the Martial Arts Temple:

"Have you... ever seen the two children?"

Jiang Ran smiled:
"You are here in such a rage. It turns out you are just here for the two children, but you don't know what the relationship between these two children is and you?"

The leader's eyes narrowed slightly:
"I'm asking you."

"It does not matter."

Jiang Ran said with a smile:

"The important thing is that I asked you too."

"presumptuous!!"

There was a loud shout, followed closely by figures flying around.

The twelve people outside the temple abandoned their galloping horses and threw themselves into the hall, surrounding Jiang Ran and Tang Huayi.

Jiang Ran glanced at these people, and suddenly seemed to think of something.

Then he spoke softly:
“The Thirteen Iron-Blooded Riders?
"Are you from the Iron Cavalry Alliance?"

"good eyesight."

The leader said calmly:
"Now, who do you think should answer who first?"

"I think you should answer me first."

Jiang Ran casually took a piece of dried meat from Tang Huayi and stuffed it into his mouth. After chewing twice, he frowned slightly:

"It's salty. Where did you buy it?"

Tang Huayi also ate a piece: "An old man sells it at the entrance of the inn, I think it's pretty good."

"Eat lightly, it's good for your health."

Jiang Ran casually gave instructions and then asked the person opposite:
"What are the people from the Iron Cavalry League doing here at Jinyang Mansion? If I remember correctly, this should be where Wenjiang Pavilion is..."

Not only did he not answer the other party's questions, but he also asked more questions himself.

The leader frowned slightly.

They are all experienced in the world, and he can tell that Jiang Ran is not pretending to be calm, he is really not afraid.

The Iron Cavalry Alliance is not enough to scare this person.

So who is he?

As the thoughts in his mind turned, he spoke softly:
"Your Excellency is so unreasonable. I asked you a question, but you didn't answer. You asked me a question, but I had to answer...

"This is unreasonable. Why don't you and I take a step back? I'll answer a question for you, and you'll answer a question for me."

Jiang Ran waved his hands repeatedly:

"No need to go to such trouble.

"You do not deserve."

As soon as these three words were spoken, the face of the leader opposite suddenly turned pale:
"You ungrateful animal!

"Kill them and find the two behind the Martial God statue."

Regardless of whether Jiang Ran was really not afraid or was just bluffing, the words "You're not worthy" left no room for relaxation between the two.

When people hang out in the martial arts world, they are usually just trying to save face.

If Jiang Ran doesn't give them face like this, then he can form a deadly feud! !

The remaining 12 people have been waiting for a long time, and they will take action when they get the order.

But at this moment, a thunderous voice shouted:

"You guys of the Iron Cavalry Alliance, I let you run away in the middle of the last fight. Let me see today, where can you escape?"

As soon as these words fell, blood-colored figures were seen coming from all directions.

But in the blink of an eye, there was another circle around the Martial Arts Temple.

The Martial Arts Temple, which was deserted and miserable just now, was suddenly overcrowded.

Jiang Ran's face didn't look good either.

He was invited here by an old drunkard, and so many people came out for no reason.

Moreover, with the subsequent group of people showing up, there was no doubt about the identity of these two children.

This matter...could it have been done intentionally by the old drunkard?
The one with an equally unsightly look on his face was the leader of the Thirteen Iron-Blooded Riders on the opposite side.

He gently reined in the horse, his face as sinking as water:

"Xuanyuan Yida!! You are really... a gangrene attached to your bones, your ghost is still there!!"

"Hahaha."

The bloody figure moved out of the way, and an old man with white hair and a strong back stepped into the crowd.

He casually pulled the shoulders of the two Iron-Blooded Thirteen riders, and neither of them dared to resist, so they gave way.

Just listen to Xuanyuan Yidao shouting loudly:

"Tie Qingshan, everyone said that you, the Thirteen Iron-Blooded Riders, are a heroic hero, but they didn't expect that these Thirteen Riders were used by you like flying. You really put oil on the soles of your feet and ran away as fast as you wanted!
"You bully and fear the strong, if you have the ability, try the Thousand Knife in my hand!

"For no reason, you came to this ruined temple to bully people again in the middle of the night... Let me see, who are you bullying?"

He kept staring at the iron green mountain, and only then turned to look.

As a result, Jiang Ran and Tang Huayi were spotted at a glance.

Tang Huayi also waved to him, and then handed out the dried meat:

"Do you want to eat it? He said it's a bit salty...but I think it's okay."

Tie Qingshan sneered when he heard this:
"It seems that these two young men have never taken you, the master of Blood Knife Hall, seriously.

"How about it? Do you want to eat it or not?"

eat!
Xuanyuan Yidao came to Tang Huayi in small steps without even thinking about it. He carefully pinched a piece, stuffed it into his mouth, and nodded:

"It's definitely a bit salty."

Tie Qingshan: "..."

Tang Huayi rolled his eyes:

"If he says salty, you have to say salty too?
"You are colluding together, which is most undesirable."

Xuanyuan Yidao smiled awkwardly, and Tie Qingshan's face turned even livid:
"Do you know?"

As soon as these four words were said, Xuanyuan knelt down in front of Jiang Ran with a splash of his sword:

"Disciple Xuanyuan Yida, pays homage to my mentor!
"We haven't seen each other for ten months, but my mentor's demeanor remains the same, so this disciple can feel relieved."

Jiang Ran smiled when he heard this, and before he could speak, he saw Tie Qingshan suddenly turn the horse's head and clamp his legs on the horse's belly:
"Stop them!!"

Before he could open his mouth, people had already jumped out of the Martial Arts Temple along with the galloping horses.

Everyone in the world knows that Xuanyuan Yida is apprenticed to the Jingshen Sword Jiang Ran.

The battle at Sunset Ping has already spread throughout the world.

At this moment, how could he not know Jiang Ran's identity?

This was a shocking sword that killed one of the two leaders of the Thirteen Gangs and injured the other with one against two on the Sunset Ping!

Not to mention myself today, even if the leader of the Iron Cavalry Alliance comes in person, I am afraid I will have no choice but to run away.

Therefore, after recognizing this person's identity, his first reaction was to run!
If you don't run, you will die today!

And running is also very particular.

It's not just running casually... If you're running casually, whether you want to capture the thief first or capture the king first, or rely on the large number of people in the Blood Knife Hall, you won't have an advantage here.

Therefore, when he ran, he had to leave something behind.

Although I can't help them, I can only leave my brothers who have been through life and death here.

First, they used them to delay the steps of Jiang Ran and others, and then used the speed of the thousand-mile horse under his hip to escape thousands of miles in the blink of an eye. Only then did he have a chance to escape death.

Fortunately, his ability to ride a horse is far beyond that of ordinary people. He can turn the horse's head in a small space, just like an arm using his fingers, and he is very flexible.

Otherwise, even if ordinary people think of such a method, they won't be able to do it.

Seeing this, Xuanyuan Yidao couldn't help but cursed:

"Tie Qingshan, you are just an old dog!

"Besides running away with your tail between your legs, what else do you have?
"From now on, you might as well stop calling me the Thirteen Iron-Blooded Riders, just call me the Thirteen Bereaved Dogs!

“Let’s change the Iron Cavalry League to the Iron Dog League!”

And following Tie Qingshan's order, the remaining twelve people took action at the same time, trying to stop Jiang Ran and others from pursuing them.

It's just that although this idea is good, before they can implement the move, they see a flash of light passing through the crowd.

Tie Qingshan had just jumped out of the temple, and before the hooves of the galloping horse hit the ground, he heard an evil wind behind him. When he turned around, he saw a huge palm already in front of the door.

At this moment, there was no time to react, so he could only cross his arms in front of his chest.

But he didn't expect that the next moment Jiang Ran turned his palms into claws, broke through his frame, grabbed his chest and shirt, and pulled him up from the horse with a flick of his hand, raised it high to the top, and fiercely He threw it hard and threw it into the surrounding area of ​​Martial Arts Temple.

Jiang Ran himself placed one foot on the horse's back. With a slight pressure, the good horse seemed to be carrying a mountain on its back, and its four hoofs were trembling and unable to move.

At this moment, a familiar voice came into Jiang Ran's ears:
"Bunny, where did you learn all this nonsense?"
