Chapter 348 Ruyi Lock

  Jiang Ran's face showed an expression of 'surprise', but his heart was much calmer than he imagined.

  It seems that in this world, any battle involving the war twenty years ago cannot avoid the battle between the five major countries and the Demonic Sect.

  However, the cause of that fight was because of a magical weapon of the Demon Cult.

  It is said that this object can change the day and night and has unpredictable power.

  If you get it, you can conquer the world.

  Rumor has it that the reason why the Demon Sect was able to create such a huge Demon Kingdom was because of this magical weapon.

  After the Lords of the Five Kingdoms knew about this matter, the war between the Five Kingdoms began in order to find the magic weapon hidden by the Demon Cult.

  Jiang Ran felt that this matter was actually a bit unreliable.

  Not to mention whether this magical weapon is real or not... If it is real, when Chu Nanfeng destroyed the Demon Sect's main altar a hundred years ago, why didn't the Demon Sect use this weapon to resist?
  Not to mention...if the Demon Sect really had such a thing back then, how could this great Demon Kingdom fall apart? Transformed into the current five-nation structure?

  But now, let Guanlan say this, maybe Xue Chan really discovered... or found something during that battle.

  This is what happened after that.

  Not only that, Jiang Ran thought of more things.

  When I was in Qiuciyi, I mentioned that the late emperor once sent people to find a way to immortality.

  In fact, he is looking for the demon sect's eternal greatest sorrow.

  But in the end, it was forgotten that he was not found, and the imperial court suddenly stopped, as if all this had never happened.

  This is very unreasonable.

  Jiang Ran mentioned this matter to Dao Wuming at that time. Both of them actually suspected that there were some problems in the capital at that time.

  I'm afraid someone around the emperor has evil intentions.

  Now Guan Lan is allowed to say that Xue Chan has become disloyal.

  Judging from the performance of the eldest princess, she really believed that the blood cicada had disappeared. In fact, if Ren Guanlan's words were true, then the blood cicada was just hidden deeper.

  While stirring up trouble in the court, he reached into the rivers and lakes to secretly control the situation.

  If this is true, then this blood cicada is indeed more terrifying than imagined.

  Even... Jiang Ran couldn't help but wonder if Tianshang Que was also part of Xue Chan's plan... Or maybe the Lord of Tian Shang Que had already joined Xue Chan?
  After all, after Jiang Tianye died that year, the Lord secretly joined Tianshangque and later reached the top position.

  Under the pretext of inheriting Jiang Tianye's legacy, he began to act recklessly in the world.

  Using the plan of Youzun to abandon Tianyue, it has contributed to the situation where Qingguo and Jin Chan are now approaching the city. The blood cicada, also known as Jin Chan, has the possibility to use the topic.

  But now this idea is just an idea.

  There is no evidence to prove the relationship between Jun Hezai and Xue Chan.

  What's more, except for Ren Guanlan, there is no evidence to prove the existence of the blood cicada.

  Thoughts were swirling in his mind, and the eldest princess unexpectedly fell into silence.

  After a long while, he slowly said:
  "In other words, the reason why you colluded with Qingguo was because of Xue Chan's instructions?

  “Because you know you are irresistible, why don’t you dare not listen?
  “But this is the grave crime of surrendering to the enemy and treason!
  "Even if you are the leader of the Jianghu Gang, if you encounter this kind of thing, wouldn't you think of directly reporting the blood cicada to the court?"

  "Had."

  Ren Guanlan said:
  "Although it's not me, I know that they are controlled by the blood cicada just like me.

  "At that time, although Xue Chan had not expressed his position so directly... but from their inconsistent attitudes, it was not difficult to see that they had a disloyal heart.

  "Therefore, those people reported to the court, hoping to attract the emperor's attention."

  "The results of it?"

  Although the eldest princess asked this, when she asked this question, she already had the answer in her heart.

  Sure enough, I heard Ren Guanlan sigh softly:
  “They were wiped out overnight.

  "Although it was said at the time that the murderer was someone else...and he was beheaded soon.

  "But I know that the murderer is not him.

  "But the Xue Chan... because there was another thing that happened back then, which was done by the Xue Chan.

  "The techniques used to escape the golden cicada and frame people for blame are exactly the same."

  "Oh?"

  Jiang Ran asked:

  "How did the golden cicada escape from its shell, and how did it frame up the blame?"

  "Speaking of this matter..."

  Ren Guanlan hesitated and asked:
  "I wonder if you two have ever heard of Ke Beisheng, the strange old man from the devil?"

  The eldest princess nodded slightly. The reputation of Ke Beisheng, the strange old man from Moli, was actually not small, so she naturally knew it.

  Jiang Ran narrowed his eyes slightly:

  "You want to say that what happened to the Zhao family back then was caused by Xue Chan?"

  "Master Jiang actually knows all about this?"

  Ren Guanlan was also a little surprised: "I didn't expect that Jiang Daxia would be so well-informed at such a young age."

  Jiang Ran couldn't care less about being happy now.

  When he met Ke Beisheng, it was before arriving at Jinyang Mansion.

  Ke Beisheng went to trouble Dong Qingcheng and the others because of his grudge with the Lie Knife Sect.

  The cause of this grudge was because the Liehuo Sect believed that the Zhao family was massacred by Ke Beisheng, and then chased him along the way. In the end, Liehuo gave Ke Beisheng a knife, almost cutting his head in half alive.

  Ke Beisheng was originally just a high-spirited young man who had just come out of the world.

  But because of this incident, he turned from a young man into an old man.

  He has lived under the shadow of being hunted all his life...his personality is naturally extreme and eccentric, so he has the reputation of a strange old man.

  Although Jiang Ran was not sure whether these things were true or false at the time, he did not chop off his head.

  However, the real reason was not because he wanted to find out who this person was, but because the Liuyuan meeting was imminent, and they would inevitably run the risk of being exposed if they entered under false pretenses.

  But Ke Beisheng didn't have to pretend...he went in directly and openly, which was one of Jiang Ran's best internal responses.

  As a result, the ending of Liuyuan's scene was unexpected.

  Because the owner of Zuodaozhuang appeared, the secret underground of Liuyuan was revealed in advance, and Jiang Ran had to leave Liuyuan one step ahead of schedule.

  Ke Beisheng was left in Liuyuan.

  After that, he made a little plan and planned to capture all the cows, ghosts and snakes in Liuyuan alive.

  But he didn't expect that it would be completely destroyed by the Wuxin Palace Master's misbehavior.

  In the end, even Ke Beisheng was taken away by Master Wuxin.

  Now that Guanlan is allowed to mention this matter, does it mean that Ke Beisheng is really innocent?

  Then wouldn't the grievances and grievances of his life have to be settled on Xue Chan's head?

  Ren Guanlan's words continued.

  Talk about why the Zhao family was targeted by the blood cicada, how they wiped out the whole family, how the golden cicada escaped from its shell, and how it was framed and blamed.

  The means used are truly extraordinary.

  Finally, Ren Guanlan sighed:
  "We have seen this method with our own eyes, and if they use it later, it will naturally not be hidden from our eyes.

  "This is also their attempt to scare the monkeys."

  "What about the court?"

  The eldest princess asked quickly.

  "The imperial court? The imperial court meeting was held as scheduled, and there was no trace of this matter at all.

  "They fought for the lives of the whole family, but in the end they only ended up with the whole family's heads hanging in front of their own door."

  The eldest princess closed her eyes.

  Jiang Ran asked softly:

  "Is there any way you can contact them?"

  Ren Guanlan shook his head:
  "They are the ones looking for me every time, and I have no way to find them."

  "Who is the person looking for you?"

  "He is a young man with a somewhat pale complexion."

  What surprised Jiang Ran was that the young man who went to see Ren Guanlan was not masked.

  As Ren Guanlan told the person's voice and appearance bit by bit, Jiang Ran's mind already had the appearance of a young man with a gray complexion, narrow eyes, and sharp eyes.

  "By the way, the most impressive thing about this man is that there is a lock hanging around his neck..."

  "longevity lock?"

  The eldest princess was stunned: "What's so impressive about this? Although I'm older... but if you like it, it's nothing to hang on to."

  "No, it's not the Longevity Lock... it's the Ruyi Lock."

  Ruyi lock!
  As soon as these three words were spoken, Jiang Ran and the eldest princess looked at each other.

  Just because this is one of the twelve heavenly coincidences!

  There are twelve pieces of Twelve-day Skills in total, and Fenghuo Lanshan wrote a special volume of Twelve-Day Skills for this purpose.

  It's just that these twelve days of Qiaolu inheritance, after many storms, were finally divided into two.

  Half of the volume was missing, and the other half was shelved in a high cabinet by the Qingguo Baimu Gate.

  The six Twelve Heavenly Skills known to the world were circulated from this half-volume of Baimumen.

  They are Jiaowei Qin, Everlasting Candle, Ruyi Suo, Tianyin Xiao, Purple Jade Futon and Star Picker.

  The Jiaowei Qin is now eating ashes in Jiang Ran's hands. Although this thing is powerful, Jiang Ran's martial arts is too high, so it is useless to use it. He has been hiding in the hidden compartment of the carriage.

  But I didn't expect that after walking around the world for so long, I finally heard the second twelve-day secret... It was actually in the hands of Xue Chan?
  Both Jiang Ran and the eldest princess could see the surprise in each other's eyes.

  But Jiang Ran discovered that in addition to surprise, there was some inexplicable brilliance in the eldest princess's eyes.

  However, Ren Guanlan waved his hand quickly:
  "Well, I don't know if it's...

  "He never used it to defend himself against his enemies.

  "I've never seen him take action...it's just that the lock was very big and hung around his neck, which was too eye-catching.

  “Not only that, there are two big characters ‘Ruyi’ written on the lock.

  "So I couldn't help but call it Ruyi Lock.

  "But whether it was a coincidence or not, I don't know."

  "Even if it's not, it's probably not far away."

  Jiang Ran chuckled:
  "If not, who would write the word "Ruyi" on the lock and hang it around his neck so openly?

  "Speaking of which, do you two know what is so magical about the Ruyi Lock?"

  Ren Guanlan shook his head:
  "I have limited knowledge, so I don't know if it's true."

  "The Ruyi Lock...is a weapon that can transform."

  The eldest princess said:

  "As you wish, it changes as you wish. It can be a long sword, a spear, a steel whip, or a heavy axe."

  "If that's all, it doesn't seem to be as good as Jiaoweiqin?"

  "I haven't finished speaking yet."

  The eldest princess glanced at Jiang Ran:
  "The most surprising thing is that there are one hundred and eighty-three kinds of hidden weapons and seventy-six kinds of poisons hidden in the Ruyi Lock, three of which are incurable."

  Jiang Ran raised his eyebrows slightly:

  "After all these years, are these poisons still useful?"

  "Of course it's useless...but you can add new poisons."

  The eldest princess smiled and said:
  “This is the cleverness of Ruyi Lock.

  "Fenghuo Lanshan did not explain how these poisons should be configured, but only reserved holes for adding poisons.

  "Once the poison in the Ruyi Lock is used up, each type of poison can be classified into categories and fed through the holes.

  “These poisons will sort themselves into categories and be blended in specific proportions.

  "And...these poisons don't just act on hidden weapons.

  "It can also be used on various transformed soldiers of Ruyi Lock.

  “The exact location of the poison...even the person in control of Ruyi Lock doesn’t know.

  “So when using this thing, you need to be most cautious.

  "Three hundred years ago, Ruyisuo appeared in the world, causing a series of bloody storms. In the end, it was snatched by one person. Hundreds of masters simultaneously used their killing moves to snatch it away.

  "That person directly activated the Ruyi Lock.

  “In almost an instant, those hundreds of masters were dead and injured!
  “Only less than a handful of people survived.

  "You need to know that those masters are not ordinary martial artists, and every one of them is a master who can stand alone.

  "After this battle, Ruyisuo disappeared again..."

  Ren Guanlan was dumbfounded when he heard:
  "There is such a thing?"

  "The eldest princess actually knows so clearly?"

  Jiang Ran was also a little surprised.

  The eldest princess thought for a moment and said:
  "Because the person who won the Ruyi Lock back then was a member of my royal family.

  "After he returned to the capital, he sealed up all the news about the battle, and the five people who survived were frightened into dementia.

  "Since then, the Ruyi Lock has been included in the treasure house of our Golden Chan royal family.

  "Until...until...sigh...until my grandpa gave him to the leader of the Blood Cicada back then.

  “From that time on, Ruyi Lock has been one of Xue Chan’s treasures.

  "After the war twenty years ago, they said that the Ruyi Lock...had been lost."

  "I see."

  Jiang Ran nodded, no wonder the eldest princess' eyes looked different just now.

  However, he did not say much more about this, but asked Ren Guanlan some more questions.

  It wasn't until he was sure that this person's knowledge was limited that he stopped.

  Then asked Ren Guanlan:

  "What are Alliance Leader Ren's next plans?"

  "..."

  Ren Guanlan didn't know what to say for a moment.

  He was originally in good health, his family had food, fields, and a foundation...but he got caught between the fight between the blood cicada and the eldest princess.

  Became an inexplicable victim.

  Jiang Ran used a trick to save his own life.

  Now I am asking about the future...

  How can I make the decision by myself from now on?

  If he leaves just like that, can Jiang Ran feel relieved?

  Jiang Ran is relieved, and so is the eldest princess.

  After being silent for a while, he cupped his fists and said:

  "It all depends on Hero Jiang and the eldest princess."

  "That's it..."

  Jiang Ran thought for a while and said:
  "Just stay with me for a while.

  "However, I can't show my face for the time being. I will have to do a little trick before I can be included as a 'newcomer'.

  "After my trip to the capital, I expect that Xue Chan's suspicion of Madam and Young Master Ling will dissipate.

  “At that time, Alliance Leader Ren can return to the Iron Cavalry Alliance.

  "only……"

  "Understand!"

  Before Jiang Ran could finish speaking, Ren Guanlan blurted out.

  He knew what Jiang Ran was worried about...

  Jiang Ran's purpose was simply to help Xuanyuan Yida expand the power of the Blood Sword Hall.

  There are actually some explanations for this matter.

  At that time, Xuanyuan Yidao worshiped Jiang Ran as his teacher, although it was said that he kept his word and kept his word.

  But it also made many people laugh.

  After all, one is seventy or eighty years old, and the other is standing behind. To become a disciple like this is really laughable.

  The results were great. Since Xuanyuan Yidao became a disciple, Blood Sword Hall has grown rapidly.

  In just a short time, the power has spread rapidly.

  Not long ago, what happened in Jinyang Mansion, Blood Knife Hall has completely used the excuse of Gu Renlong's son to clean up the influence of Benlei Hall.

  The entire expansion is fully doubled.

  There were some people who were not convinced at the time, but the Luo Hua Yan Yu League openly and secretly helped the Blood Sword Hall speak for themselves.

  Until this time, the Blood Knife Hall and the Luohua Yanyu League no longer took cover, and directly took down their own Cavalry League with open fire.

  Becoming a disciple would bring about such a change. If he moved to another place, Ren Guanlan would want to become a disciple.

  Of course, the people who laughed at Xuanyuan Yida back then have something to say now... He said that the reason why he became a disciple was because he was attracted by the martial arts of Jingshen Sword and wanted to use his master to conquer the world...

  In Ren Guanlan's view, this is just sour grapes.

  Now, all Jiang Ran is worried about is whether he will interfere with it after returning to the Iron Cavalry League, so that his original plan will collapse.

  So he said without thinking:

  "Hero Jiang saved my life. As of today, I am finally out of Xue Chan's control. If I continue to interfere with this and my true identity is revealed, it will not only be unlucky for our cavalry alliance, but also the lives of my entire family.

  “I will keep this matter secret no matter what.

  "Please rest assured, Master Jiang!"

  When Jiang Ran heard what he said, he nodded slightly:
  "Leader Ren can naturally distinguish the important from the important...

  “However, the Iron Cavalry Alliance is still your Iron Cavalry Alliance, Ren Guanlan.

  "When everything is settled in the future, the Iron Cavalry Alliance will return to your hands.

  "As for your son... With a big enemy like me standing in front of you, I expect that he will be more diligent in practicing martial arts.

  "I can't say it, but it actually makes me more talented."

  Hearing Jiang Ran say that the Iron Cavalry League would still be handed over to him, Ren Guanlan was happy, but he didn't care too much.

  But when he heard that Ren Chaosheng could be successful, Ren Guanlan couldn't help but crack his lips, but he quickly suppressed it and didn't dare to get too carried away:
  "To borrow the good words of Jiang DaXia, that boy, if I can have [-]%, no, [-]% of DaXia Jiang, I will have nothing to worry about even if I die now."
