Chapter 436: I am dead?

The group in front of them were planning to capture the 'eldest princess' when they heard someone shouting to stop.

He immediately became furious:

"Who dares to protect Princess Jin Chan?

"Is he also a golden cicada bandit?"

"What a golden cicada bandit."

This time it was a girl's voice.

As her voice came, the group soon appeared in front of Jiang Ran and others.

This is a group of young people dressed as scholars.

The man stands tall and holds a book.

The woman has a cold temperament and a short sword hanging from her waist.

Jiang Ran was delighted when he heard this and immediately raised his hand:

"Is this also a misunderstanding?

But unexpectedly, where the blade fell, it hit a sleeve.

"Fight them!!!"

"Okay, okay, there are talents in this generation... all of you are talents.

I saw a girl standing up behind the scholar, took out a scroll from her sleeve, and slowly opened it:

"We have heard some time ago that someone was blocking the road and robbing her under the pretense of arresting Princess Jin Chan.

"Nonsense! What happened to Xiao Cuilin was not our fault!!"

“The next day, the girl’s mutilated body was found in a dry well in Majiatun.

"Is this also a misunderstanding?"

"is it?"

"Not only that... On the fifteenth day of last month, in the small green forest, three caravans passed by.

The leader gave a loud shout and drew his sword first to slash at the scholar opposite.

The group of people paused, and the leader raised his head and stared at the disciples of Xuanji Academy:

"What... do you want?"

Moreover, the sleeves were not even cut off, I just felt that the strength fell, and it was all empty space, with no effort at all.

"On the seventh day of the lunar month, ten miles outside Majiatun, you guys are still insisting that a girl from the caravan from Qiuye is the eldest princess.

"Shut up!!"

Until I heard the last one, I really couldn't help but refute.

"I was dazzled just now... I didn't mean to admit my mistake.

"I, I, I, he said I was the eldest princess."

It can be seen that they come from the same door.

The scholar who spoke took a step forward with a compassionate look on his face:

"Leave."

The faces of the group of people who stopped Jiang Ran suddenly changed:

"Disciples of Xuanji Academy...

"Please forgive me, little brother."

But after these words were spoken, there was a sneer:

"So, the first two things were really done by you?

"As the saying goes, when the country is facing a crisis, how can someone be so ignorant of the general situation and still do such a perverse act at this time of life and death?

Although women are not wearing scholar's robes, their clothing styles are similar to men's.

Then he looked at the disciples of Xuanji Academy and grinned:

"This may be a misunderstanding.

As he spoke and shook his hands, many Xuanji Academy disciples behind him jumped up and started to kill this group of people.

"Xiaosheng couldn't believe it before.

"You took people away forcibly. Anyone who dared to stop them was killed on the spot by you. A total of five people died.

The more the leader listened, the more his heart sank.

As he was about to leave, he heard the voice of the man who had called before say coldly:

"What does one want to do?"

The boss who blocked the road and robbed him suddenly glared at Jiang Ran.

"In that case, the bones are buried in the green mountains, so you can rest here among the green mountains and green waters."

“But they all died tragically on the spot, and one hundred and twenty-five corpses were all hung on the trees.

“But I didn’t expect that I actually saw it with my own eyes!

"You just said...who is the eldest princess?"

"let's go."

“On the third day of last month, at the Western Pass of the Imperial Capital, you killed fourteen people and looted property.

I wanted to pull the knife back, but I just felt that the blade seemed to be stuck in the mud, and I was unable to pull it back.

Just as he was feeling horrified, he saw the scholar holding a scroll and slamming it at him.

There was only a bang, and the leader of the bandits was hit with a brain that burst open.

"Let you all also realize what the importance of a mountain of books is."

The group of people from Xuanji Academy didn't use any weapons to deal with the enemy. Except for the woman who had a short sword, the man used all the books in his hand.

I don’t know what the hell this book is made of, it’s a sure thing if I smash it.

If you knock it, you will be injured, if you touch it, you will die.

In just a moment, these people were already dead.

At this point, the leading scholar from Xuanji Academy just shook off the blood on his books and came to Jiang Ran and others.

He cupped his fists and said:

"Everyone is shocked."

Jiang Ran felt indeed a little shocked.

It's not that I was scared by these gangs of thieves, it was actually the first time I saw people fighting with each other and smashing them with books.

He immediately smiled:

"Thank you all heroes for saving me."

"I don't dare. We are just a group of powerless scholars. When facing the enemy in battle, we often rely on our righteousness."

As the leader said, his eyes swept over Jiang Ran and others one by one.

Suddenly asked:

"There are many of you, men and women, old and young. If you don't follow the official path, why are you walking on this wild mountain road?"

Princess Xiyue suddenly sweated when she heard this, not for herself, but for the scholars opposite her.

This question was obviously aroused by suspicion.

But if you really doubt Shang Jiangran's words... that is definitely asking for death.

Don't look at this group of scholars who just dealt with the group of thieves, they seemed to be invincible.

But if they really face Jiang Ran... then they will know what it means to be powerless.

The journey along the way is not short.

She really got to know Jiang Ran.

Even though this person is smiling every day, he seems to be able to chat with anyone.

One second he can smile with you like a long-lost brother, and the next second he can beat the brother to death, and then save his energy and let him blend into the dirt so that no one can tell. There once was a big living person here.

Just when she was thinking about those scenes that made her feel horrified, Jiang Ran had already said with a smile:

"To be honest, the world is in chaos now, and officialdom is not safe.

"We want to go to the imperial capital for something, but we don't dare to wander in. We can only walk in secluded places in the wilderness and try our luck...

“But I didn’t expect that I was almost killed.

"If you hadn't arrived in time... I'm afraid you would have been dead for a long time."

Princess Xiyue complained in her heart that Jiang Ran was just farting.

What has been dead for a long time?

It's obvious that the other party has been dead for a long time!

However, when her thoughts came to this point, she suddenly discovered that Jiang Ran's words had left a way out for her... He only said how long he had been dead, but he did not say who had been dead for how long!

This traitor.

There is a mystery in every sentence and must not be dealt with lightly.

In fact, along the way, Princess Xiyue not only realized the horror of Jiang Ran's martial arts skills, but also his intelligence and intelligence, which also made her secretly frightened.

He always felt that anyone who opposed him would never end well.

She even had the urge to go back and report to her father immediately, and she must not become an enemy of Jin Chan.

This person named Jiang was so desperate that he really dared to rush into Qiuye and beat her poor father to death on the dragon throne.

Then he pretended that his father died naturally and no one could find out the clues.

"I see."

The scholar from Xuanji Academy nodded slightly:

“In recent days, the world has indeed become increasingly chaotic.

"Jin Chan presses forward step by step, but Qiu Ye's attitude is incomprehensible.

“Although our Qing country is not powerless to resist, it has also fallen behind step by step because it has lost the opportunity.

"What's even more despicable is that there are many people in the world who secretly murder their own people at this critical moment when the country is facing a national crisis.

“It’s despicable!

"It is reasonable for you to choose to avoid officialdom..."

After saying this, he paused slightly:

"However, we still need to verify your identity!

"Brother, please forgive me for this."

"Verify your identity?"

Jiang Ran raised his eyebrows slightly:

"What do you mean? Are you from the government?"

"No."

The woman who helped earlier stepped forward and said with a smile:

"We are not officials, but figures in the world.

"So we act more unscrupulously...but don't worry, we will never harm innocent people.

"As long as your identity is proven and you are not disguised as someone with ulterior motives, I and I will personally escort you to the imperial capital."

After she finished speaking, she waved her hand, and the Xuanji Academy disciples who had just killed all the bandits immediately surrounded Jiang Ran and his group.

Jiang Ran sighed in his heart.

They guys can't help but investigate.

If you are not careful, you will find clues.

After all, not everyone knows his Qiushui Ice Condensation Technique, or Tang Huayi's Heavenly Secret Transformation Technique.

If these people really want to investigate... then there will only be one end.

Just as he was thinking of this, his brows suddenly raised slightly.

Then a voice came:

"stop!!"

Why does this scene seem so familiar?

The scholar at the head of Xuanji Academy frowned slightly, but he felt that the voice sounded familiar.

Suddenly, he saw a hand swishing in front of him.

He subconsciously reached out to grab it, and the two palms met, and a figure suddenly arrived in front of him.

When he stood still, the hand that flew over had already returned to his wrist.

This man was dressed in green, with a mask on his face, and a huge "wood" character written on it.

"Good boy, I haven't seen you for a few days, and my martial arts has improved even more."

The visitor laughed, his posture relaxed. "Uncle Zhen?"

The scholar was stunned:

"How will you be here?"

Jiang Ran blinked:

"Real master uncle? Do you still have a fake master uncle?"

This was meant as a joke, but unexpectedly, the scholar actually nodded seriously:

"Yes, I also have a Master Jia, how did you know about it?"

"Because he and I are old friends."

The visitor said with a smile:

"Just call him...Uncle Jiang."

"..."

Jiang Ran glanced at the Baimumen man with a darkened face.

After so many days, he thought that even if he met again in the future, it would not be so fast, but he did not expect that this guy had already caught up with him before he reached the capital.

Moreover, come as soon as you come, and send a nephew over as soon as you come up?

What kind of gift is this?

The scholar from Xuanji Academy was also a little embarrassed:

"Master Zhen, don't be joking. This brother and I are not much different in age..."

"In the world of martial arts, when did seniority begin to be ranked based on age?"

The man from Baimumen snorted:

"In terms of age, there is not much age difference between you and me. What, are you going to call me Brother Zhen?"

"This...this is not the same thing."

The man couldn't laugh or cry:

"Baimumen has a good relationship with my Xuanji Academy, but he is not from Baimumen."

"But he and I know each other well, and we treat each other as brothers. Why, do you not recognize him, or do you not intend to recognize me?"

The man from Baimumen snorted, then hugged the scholar's neck and said in his ear:

"Listen to what Uncle Master says, can Uncle Master still harm you?

"Acknowledge this uncle, and you will reap the benefits."

Jiang Ran's face turned dark:

"Who taught you to plot loudly? I heard everything."

Uncle Zhen didn't look at Jiang Ran at all, but patted the scholar firmly on the shoulder.

Although the scholar was helpless, the other person was older than him, so now he could only be obedient and bowed to Jiang Ran with a frown on his face:

"Uncle Jiang..."

The remaining Xuanji Academy disciples, look at me and I look at you. The senior brothers have all called me uncle. What can they do?

Then Jiang Ranxi mentioned a lot of nephews and nieces.

Jiang Ran's mouth twitched and he looked at Baimumen.

The man smiled at Jiang Ran. Of course, he could only see his voice but not his face:

"Brother Jiang, long time no see, are you okay?"

"Still alive for now."

Jiang Ran breathed out:

"Just now I thought I had to be forcibly identified."

"Hahaha, don't worry, he won't dare."

Uncle Zhen patted the scholar on the shoulder and said:

"This boy's surname is Chen, and his name is Chen Mu.

“Although he is young, he is still ranked number one in Xuanji Academy.

"You can give him any orders from now on. It will definitely work."

"..."

Chen Mu wanted to protest. He was not being manipulated at will.

However, under the suppression of Uncle Baimumen Zhen, there was nothing he could do.

I can only nod with a wry smile:

"If Uncle Jiang has anything to do, you can tell me..."

"it is good."

Jiang Ran was not polite either.

"..."

Chen Mu's face turned dark, and he suddenly felt that it was not unreasonable for Jiang Ran to have a similar affinity with Master Zhen.

"Okay, this is not the place to talk."

Baimumen looked around:

"Let's change places and talk carefully... Speaking of which, your boy almost got into a big trouble just now. If you bump into the noble man, I'm afraid this matter will be difficult to solve."

"Noble?"

Chen Mu was slightly startled, where did this noble person come from?

Although I had doubts in my heart, I still led the way.

They had been walking around here for more than a day or two. Otherwise, how could they have collected so much evidence of other people's crimes?

There are naturally places for them to stay around here.

Soon everyone arrived in a cave.

It's just that the cave is deserted, and except for traces of campfires, there are no utensils.

Jiang Ran saw that it was almost time, so he asked Luo Qingyi to cook.

Seeing Luo Qingyi skillfully take out the pots and pans and start washing them, a group of young people from Xuanji Academy rushed up.

Watching Luo Qingyi display his skills with expectation.

Jiang Ran glanced at them in confusion, and then asked Uncle Zhen:

"What happened to them?"

"Hahaha, you don't know something."

Uncle Zhen smiled and said:

"These scholars have very strict rules and a lot of bad habits.

"You must have heard of what it means to never tire of food and fine cooking, and the so-called gentleman stays away from the kitchen."

When Jiang Ran heard "The gentleman is far away from the kitchen", he couldn't help but think of Qi Tianyue.

He immediately smiled dumbly.

Just listen to Uncle Zhen say:

“So, when they go out, they don’t know how to light a fire and cook.

“They all bring dry food and eat wild fruits and swallow them hard.

"Look at them one by one, the male is Qingjun and the female is slim, right? They are all hungry."

"Reasonable!!"

Jiang Ran really didn't know what to say other than these two words.

When I'm out and about, I obviously don't care about the importance of never getting tired of fine food and careful cooking. If I can only eat one bite, it's considered good.

But they don’t know how to cook yet…

So, hungry makes you in good shape?

After Jiang Ran couldn't laugh or cry, he looked at Uncle Zhen:

"Speaking of which, I still don't know your name."

"Zhen Cheng."

"……seriously?"

"Why did I lie to you?"

"Then this name sounds like a lie."

Jiang Ran glanced at Zhen Cheng helplessly:

"How's the abstinence going?"

"Alive."

Zhen Cheng said:

"He was picked up by the monks of Dafan Zen Temple and left the matter of finding you to me."

When he said this, he suddenly glanced around and asked in a low voice:

"Did you kill Jie evil and the others?"

Jiang Ran's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he nodded slowly:

"Exactly."

"...It's really scary."

Zhen Cheng shrank back:

"You don't even pretend to be in front of me?"

"You pretended to be comatose then, and you heard everything you should and shouldn't hear while you were lying there. Does it make sense to pretend now?"

Jiang Ran smiled lightly:

"You should also know that if I wanted you to, you would be dead long ago."

"..."

Zhen Cheng had nothing to say about this.

A Ying Shen Sword would put him in a dilemma of life and death, but in front of this person, Ying Shen Sword was like a three-year-old naughty boy.

Looking at the entire Qingguo world, he couldn't think of anyone who could stand up to the Jiang Ran in front of him.

Thinking of this, he sighed:

"Dafan Chanyuan and my Baimumen are both on the right path.

"According to my position, I should tell this matter now, and then lead the group of people from Xuanji Academy..."

"Die together?"

"...Don't say it so bluntly."

Zhen Cheng was helpless:

"We are not just fools, so how could we die like this?

"But I have to say... Over the years, Dafan Chanyuan has become increasingly inflexible.

“Gradually there is no distinction between good and bad.

"I never said a word to Jieli about what you showed me.

"Just because you came back that night.

“Moreover, at the critical moment, my life was not taken.

“This shows that you are by no means a malicious and malicious person.

"If this gives you a reason to kill...then I think the only possibility is that they had to seek death."

"Are all the people in Baimumen as considerate as you?"

Jiang Ran smiled:

"I hope you won't regret what you did today."

"I never regret anything I do."

As soon as Zhen Cheng finished speaking, he saw Chen Mu walking over with a jar in his arms:

"What are you talking about? What never regrets?

"By the way, Uncle Zhen, what happened to the noble person you mentioned earlier?"

He put the jar down as he spoke, and a smell of wine suddenly rushed into Jiang Ran's nose.

After Zhen Cheng glanced at Jiang Ran and saw no objection from him, he said:

"Brother Jiang has been escorting Princess Xiyue of Qiuye all the way to the imperial capital to discuss joining forces to fight against Jin Chan."

"What! Princess Xiyue!?"

Chen Mu suddenly widened his eyes:

"Hasn't she already been killed by the evil thief Jiang Ran?"

Princess Xiyue turned around in shock when she heard this:

"I am dead?"
