Chapter 341 On the Duanliu Gorge
  The sound of the body falling to the ground could not be heard, but the man in black knew it clearly.

  Shen Tuhong is dead!
  But now, the reason why he is safe and sound for the time being is because he sacrificed his life to gain an opportunity for himself.

  escape!
  must escape!
  He didn't know whether what was in his heart now was fear or anger.

  As long as the thought of 'escape' is carried out from beginning to end, Shen Tuhong's death will never be in vain.

  But at this moment, a strong sense of crisis suddenly filled his whole body.

  He subconsciously stopped and looked ahead. There was nothing in the dark ahead, but his intuition told him that if he took another step forward, he would face great danger!
  But when he wanted to adjust a direction and continue to escape.

  But suddenly I realized...

  The danger does not just come from the front, but from all directions.

  Even under his feet and in the shadow of the trees above his head!

  The world seems to have become a cage, weaving endless traps, just waiting for the prey like himself to take one step forward, and it will be shattered to pieces.

  But... if you continue to stay here, it will also be a dead end!
  How to do! ?

  Going forward is death, and going back is death. Going left, right, even in the heaven and on the earth, there is no way to survive.

  The man in black didn't know what to do... Huge fear gripped his heart, and he even forgot that this was a glimmer of hope that Shen Tuhong had used his life to gain for himself.

  I could only stand here blankly, with big drops of sweat slowly flowing down bit by bit.

  "It's right not to move forward."

  Jiang Ran's voice came again.

  The man in black was not surprised, only frustrated.

  He turned around silently and looked at Jiang Ran.

  Next to Jiang Ran were two girls, one on the left and one on the right.

  But these two girls, from the beginning to now, have been silent.

  The man in black's eyes moved from Jiang Ran's face to his hands.

  The wine gourd in his hand was gone and hung on his waist.

  What I am holding in my hand now is a human head...

  Shen Tuhong’s head!

  The man in black's pupils suddenly shrank:

  "You chopped off his head!"

  "Before he died, he told me that I could do whatever I wanted with the body.

  "For people like him, I usually only take away the head. If it's the body... there's a body collector."

  Jiang Ran chuckled: "If you feel that he is lonely, you can be his companion."

  "..."

  The man in black took a deep breath, and then looked at Jiang Ran with a strange look:

  "I have always heard that Daxia Jiang is a rare righteous knight in the world.

  “But now it seems that it is not worthy of the name.

  "Dragon Jiang's methods are far inferior to those of the evil devil."

  "I can't refute this."

  Jiang Ran chuckled:
  "So, are you afraid?"

  How to answer this?

  The man in black looked at Jiang Ran with a dark face and said nothing.

  He didn't speak, but Jiang Rande said:
  "Speaking of which, we have had some friendly exchanges, but until now, I haven't asked you for your surname."

  "...My name is just a shadow, humbled in the dust. Even if Jiang Daxia is well-informed, he will never have heard of it."

  The man in black said calmly:

  “As of now, there’s nothing more to say.

  "Jiang Daxia is unwilling to join us, so our fate ends here.

  "If you want to kill me, go ahead and attack me, but if you want to pry my mouth open... that's out of the question."

  "it is good."

  Jiang Ran nodded slightly.

  The man in black suddenly changed his expression and suddenly rose into the air. Two sword lights suddenly flew out of the darkness, but they spun around in the air and made two hissing sounds.

  The big tendons in both legs of the man in black were instantly cut off.

  He suddenly fell to the ground and let out a muffled groan.

  Only then did he know why he felt so dangerous just now... I was afraid that there were countless such sword lights hidden in the shadows of the forest. As long as he took a step forward, he would be killed by the sword lights on the spot.

  But when he looked at Jiang Ran who was getting closer, he felt that he might have missed the best opportunity to seek death.

  A hand grabbed the back of his neck and lifted him up from the ground:
  “Come on, let’s change places for a while.

  "Let me ask you a few more questions.

  "There are not many questions...I still need your cooperation."

  ……

  ……

  The changing place is not far away, but it is quite secretive.

  Jiang Ran had not made a fire, but fortunately Ye Jingshuang had achieved great success in internal martial arts. Even though he was still far from being enlightened, the cold night wind penetrated people, but it would not damage him.

  As for Ye Jingxue, let alone that.

  Liu Piaoling's internal strength cannot be faked after all.

  Jiang Ran used the starlight to carefully bandage the legs of the man in black.

  Half of the words on his face have been lifted.

  Sure enough, as he said, no one knew anyone present.

  Yu also rubbed one side of his cheek, but there was no human skin mask.

  Jiang Ran finally gave up on trying to catch this person's true identity.

  "What are you going to use in Duanliu Gorge?"

  This is the first question raised by Jiang Ran.

  The man in black decided to become one with the darkness. Can the darkness speak? Of course he can't, so he can't either.

  Jiang Ran waited quietly for a while and finally sighed:

  "You have become the kind of person I hate the most."

  "..."

  The man in black felt that this was unreasonable. He was tied up by him, and then he said that he hated himself...

  I don’t hate him yet!
  This man is simply inexplicable.

  Then he saw Jiang Ran take out a small box from his arms. After opening it, there was ointment inside.

  After lightly scratching the small wooden board, Jiang Ran told him about the function of this thing.

  The king of hell is angry.

  How could the King of Hell not be angry when he suffered so much pain but refused to enter the Palace of the King of Hell?
  The expression of the man in black turned ugly in an instant.

  Jiang Ran comforted him:

  "It doesn't matter, it will get worse in a while."

  Taking a small spatula, Jiang Ran gently applied the Wrath of Hell on the eyebrows of the man in black. Jiang Ran blew on it and waited for the medicine to take effect before he flicked it with his finger.

  The voice is clear, which shows that he has a good head.

  At this moment, the man in black had veins rising from his forehead and spreading to his neck. His face was red and his teeth were bleeding.

  But he still insisted on saying nothing.

  Jiang Ran knew that the person in front of him had probably gone through quite rigorous training to be able to be so tight-lipped.

  This is different from ordinary martial arts warriors.

  No matter how high their martial arts skills are, some of these masters may still be unable to bear the pain or torture.

  Compared with the person in front of them, they often lack a lesson in being captured.

  Fortunately, Jiang Ran had plenty of time to spend time with him.

  And I was really impatient, and Ye Jingshuang and Ye Jingxue came to take over.

  But even so, it took nearly an hour before the man opened his mouth.

  "It's gunpowder..."

  This answer is not unexpected.

  Jiang Ran was not moved by this, but continued to ask:

  "Where is this gunpowder hidden?"

  "It's... between the mountain walls on both sides of the Duanliu Gorge. It was originally a backup move.

  "If...if we fail to get the tiger away from the mountain, you have to live and die with the eldest princess...we will detonate this gunpowder, and the huge rocks on both sides of the mountain will smash you alive."

  The man in black said with a ferocious expression:

  "I said...I said everything, give me a good time."

  "No."

  Jiang Ran shook his head:

  "You have to let me think again, there should be other questions I need to ask you.

  "By the way, is the person behind you really Prince Wu?"

  "Yes!!"

  "lie?"

  "……it is true."

  "It's even more fake."

  Jiang Ran nodded, feeling a little embarrassed:
  “After all, this kind of thing should not be taken lightly, no matter who it is, it may be a catastrophic disaster.

  "You say these three words Prince Wu so easily, it seems like you are dealing with me.

  “And by the way, the trouble will be diverted to the east... After all, Prince Wu is really a perfect target.

  "But similarly, this does not rule out the possibility that you did it deliberately to draw my attention away from Prince Wu.

  "Well, ultimately, it's because I don't have a deep understanding of the court affairs.

  "It seems like someone else has to ask you about this matter.

  "Okay, that's it for today...Shuang'er, Jingxue, please do one thing for me.

  "We're just afraid we'll have to split up into two groups."

  Ye Jingshuang and Ye Jingxue looked at each other and nodded at the same time:

  "it is good."

  ……

  ……

  It was before dawn.

  Both sides of Duanliu Gorge are already manned. This is a canyon, and it is also a road.

  The only way back to the capital.

  Some people also call this world a line of sky.

  Standing in the canyon and looking up, there is only a thin line of blue sky, winding forward.

  If you look closely, you will feel that the remaining line of sky looks like a ferocious dragon.

  Therefore, stories are born from these imaginations.

  Some people say that in ancient times, there was a flood in Dishui River, which spread across the world and caused countless deaths.

  There are also demonic dragons that cause trouble and take advantage of the opportunity to eat people.

  The gods above the nine heavens saved all the people from the fire and water, and then descended to earth to cross the world. They collected the demon dragon here and used its ability to control water to break up the flowing water. Therefore, this place was renamed "Duanliu Gorge".

  There are countless such stories, and they are often not taken seriously by people. They are spread by word of mouth to scare children because they do not sleep at night.

  For example, if you don't sleep, the demon dragon will come to eat you.

  This method often has immediate results and very fast results.

  But in the eyes of the soldiers, this place is a natural danger, but one person can guard it against ten thousand people!

  If there are strong soldiers guarding it, all of them can be broken and sink into the sand here.

  It's just that now this place is considered to be in the golden cicada's land, and there is no need to specially guard it, so it is abandoned.

  The killers gathered here today looked at the Duanliu Gorge with a hundredfold confidence.

  But when they looked around, they felt toothache.

  There are many more people around than expected...

  Take Wushenglou as an example. They thought that the person who took action this time, besides themselves, was a master from the Qing Kingdom.

  As a result, it was only at this moment that I realized that in addition to Wusheng Tower, there was also Wangchen Island.

  I heard that there are people from the Jing Mie Pavilion...but they haven't come yet.

  A young man sitting on the stone frowned.

  If Jiang Ran were here, it would not be difficult to find that this person was the man who appeared in front of him that night and told him that a master from the Qing Kingdom went to Wusheng Tower to place an order and wanted to assassinate the eldest princess.

  That night, Jiang Ran followed him.

  Finally, we had an inexplicable New Year’s Eve dinner.

  At this moment, he was actually not in a good mood.

  Because I just discovered today that something is wrong...

  But at this time, it was already too late to notify Jiang Ran.

  Nowadays, there are eyes all around. If one of them leaves this place before the assassination begins, it will definitely attract the attention of others.

  So we can find out the clues...

  For a moment, my heart was filled with anxiety.

  "Why is this young master so sad?"

  A woman's voice came into my ears.

  The young man subconsciously touched the mask on his face. Seeing that the mask was intact, he glanced at the speaker.

  One of the four great masters of the Qing Kingdom.

  These four people are two men and two women.

  Each one is enigmatic.

  But what I saw today was that one woman was missing among the four people, and I don’t know where she went.

  After pondering slightly, he slowly said:
  "Too many people."

  "Isn't it bad to have too many people?"

  "It depends on the situation."

  He said softly:
  “When dealing with others, having more people will naturally give you a huge advantage.

  "But to deal with Jiang Ran... the number of people has no meaning at all.

  "On the contrary, it will alert him in advance."

  "Makes sense."

  The woman smiled:

  "But it doesn't matter, the purpose is to let him know that we are here to ambush him."

  "Why?"

  The young man was a little confused.

  “Because the mountain walls on both sides are full of gunpowder.

  "Jiang Ran is arrogant and will not take us people seriously, so he will definitely stand in the canyon and talk nonsense to us.

  “When the time comes, use a little gunpowder and make a loud bang!
  "Do you think this Jingshen Sword is dead or alive?"

  The woman chuckled: "How?"

  "...Where did you get the gunpowder?"

  The young man ignored the danger in her words, and instead raised another question:
  “Whether gunpowder is in Qingguo or Jinchan, the control is extremely strict.

  "The royal family used it to mine mountains and mines, and some people even tried to use it to make weapons and hidden weapons... It is impossible for anyone with a large amount of gunpowder to get away with it.

  "It can range from imprisonment to three thousand miles in prison.

  "The most important thing...is to kill him immediately.

  "Everyone is new to Jin Chan. Why is he so powerful?"

  "For a killer, you seem to be asking a little too many questions."

  The woman looked at the young man with a smile:
  "However, sister, I am in a better mood today. If you are willing to let me see what you look like, I will tell you where this gunpowder comes from."

  "..."

  There is no succession among young people.

  Because you don’t have to guess, you all know it’s a lie.

  If he takes off his mask for this answer, it will definitely make him suspect that he has ulterior motives.

  As for what he looks like... it's none of her business.

  The woman chuckled lightly:
  "Not to show?"

  "Except Wangchen Island, who are those people?"

  The young man suddenly raised his hand.

  "Those... won't tell you."

  The woman smiled and said:

  “However, besides them, there are other helpers coming.

  "It seems the time has come..."

  "What helper?"

  "Jingmie Pavilion."

  As soon as she finished saying these three words, she saw a figure flying over.

  When they arrived, someone immediately jumped up and tried to stop him.

  There were only two bangs and bangs, and the two figures who blocked him were spitting out blood and died on the spot.

  After the body fell to the ground, a man was seen standing on a big rock and looking down at everyone present:

  "It's just nonsense..."

  "The red face of Jing Mie Pavilion!"

  "It turned out to be him?"

  "It turns out that the deputy master of the Jingming Pavilion arrived, and he was greeted from afar."

  Several voices came from everywhere, and a figure was seen flying under the stone. He looked up at the man wearing a red mask on the stone.

  "What do you mean, deputy master? Kill our people as soon as they come?"

  A voice with a broken voice came:

  "If you don't give us an explanation today, let alone you, even if you, the master of the Jingming Pavilion, come in person..."

  "Blowing the air."

  Chi Mian chuckled and waved his hand:

  "If my pavilion master came here in person, I'm afraid you would have already pissed yourself off.

  "I said you were just fooling around... isn't that true?
  "The eldest princess passed by the Duanliu Gorge today, and there was even a Jingshen Sword in the team.

  "With all this fanfare, do you really think that Jiang Ranshi, a three-year-old child, wouldn't notice anything different?
  "In my opinion, you guys should not fight with open fire like this.

  "Xu De spread out to avoid its sharp edge. This person is suspicious by nature. The more so, the more he will feel that the situation is not trivial.

  "Only after he realizes it himself will he have no worries and let us succeed in our plan.

  "Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be self-defeating."

  After he said these words, he flew down from the stone.

  I saw an old man with a gray beard, stretched out his hand to touch his beard, and nodded gently:

  "The Master of the Red Face Pavilion is right. Our hiding is indeed too superficial."

  "That's it, then just follow the instructions of the Deputy Pavilion Master."

  "But, Deputy Pavilion Master, why are you the only one here?"

  I heard the red-faced pavilion master sneer:
  "So what if you come alone? So what if you just kill them all like me?"

  Everyone was speechless.

  Wangchen Island, Wu Sheng Tower, and Jing Mie Pavilion are all killers, and they have reached the level of the top three in the world. They don't like each other.

  Several people from the Qing Kingdom were considered financial backers. Seeing that they were about to start a fight before even finishing a few words... they immediately made peace.

  Claiming that peace is the most important thing, wait until the big event is over before making other calculations.

  "Humph!"

  The red-faced Pavilion Master sneered, said no more, looked directly at the young man in Wusheng Building, and walked towards him.

  The young man frowned slightly, feeling wary in his heart. It wasn't until the other party came to him that he spoke:
  "How are you doing?"

  "No way."

  The red-faced pavilion master conspired face to face with the voice of only two people:

  "How about you and I join forces and kill them all?"

  The young man's eyes suddenly widened, and he used an unknown amount of concentration to suppress the urge to turn his eyes and stare at the person in front of him.

  Then he said with fear:

  "You...are you Jiang Ran?
  "Aren't you... afraid that they will hear it?

  "Wait a minute, did you just say the truth?"

  He said that he had killed all the masters of Jing Mie Pavilion.

  I just thought it was a joke, but now it seems like it's not!
