Chapter 456(1/2)
Pure Nature
Changing back into his night clothes, the man in black once again covered his face tightly.
After getting out of bed, she said to Jiang Beiran: "Thank you."
Jiang Beiran smiled again in his heart after hearing this. A "thank you" could convey a somewhat condescending feeling. Combined with Jiang Beiran's previous observations, he could basically determine that this must be the eldest lady from a wealthy family who had sneaked out.
The kind that enjoys the spring water.
But Jiang Beiran was not interested in her life experience. Now he has triggered the system option for the ninth time. He only hopes that after he saves the night traveler, the matter will be settled and no one will have contact with each other in the future.
'It's a pity that I just think about it...'
From his experience, people who can trigger the options above the earth level are basically not so easy to get rid of. As for the heaven level... Jiang Beiran couldn't help but glance at Xia Lingdang.
It's not even that easy.
So after taking a sip of tea, he said: "Ding Ding, pour the guest a cup of tea."
"Yes." Xia Lingdang agreed and immediately poured the tea with quick hands and feet.
The man in black was about to refuse, but found that the aroma of the tea was extremely unusual. He had never smelled such an old fragrance at home.
So out of curiosity, she sat down at the table and took a deep breath, trying to smell what kind of tea it was.
"Please use it." Xia Lingdang placed the cup filled with tea in front of the man in black.
"Thanks."
But when he said thank you, the man in black looked at Jiang Beiran and said it.
Jiang Beiran was not surprised by this. In the eyes of such a wealthy lady, it is normal that there are no maids and servants. To them, servants are just appendages of the master. How can they say thank you to a "thing"?
Picking up the tea, the man in black brought it to his mouth gracefully, but he forgot that there was a layer of black cloth between them.
The man in black struggled for a moment, and finally decided not to drink, because compared to his appetite, ensuring that his face was not seen was the most important thing.
Putting down the tea cup again, the man in black looked at Jiang Beiran and hesitated to speak.
Judging from what she just saw, no matter how stupid she was, she understood that the man in front of her was no ordinary person, and was probably even a cultivator.
Thinking that he had just threatened a cultivator with a short knife, the man in black was a little scared. Fortunately, the person opposite him had a good temper. Not only did he not argue with her, but he also saved her.
For such an arrogant practitioner, it's hard to say what will happen to her.
Because he saw that the other party was a good person, the man in black wanted to ask him for help, but because he saw that the other party was a good person, the man in black was embarrassed to drag him into this huge trouble.
That's why she started to speak but stopped several times, but in the end she said nothing.
If she didn't say anything, Jiang Beiran would be even less anxious. He was unfamiliar with the country and didn't want to get into such seemingly troublesome trouble for no apparent reason.
But after drinking two cups of Shaofeng tea, Jiang Beiran couldn't help but look outside.
Because the officers and soldiers who were searching were still searching around the inn, they were ready to search again, and they didn't even have the intention of dividing the troops into two groups.
This shows that they must be very sure that the man in black is still in the inn, so they carry out the operation so resolutely.
After hearing that the officers and soldiers started searching again from the outermost guest room, Jiang Beiran finally confirmed his guess.
So he turned his head and inspected the man in black with his mental strength, and soon discovered something.
"Give me the sachet on your waist."
Hearing Jiang Beiran's words, the man in black was stunned for a moment, then immediately covered his chest with both hands and shouted: "You, you, you...how did you know there is a sachet in my waist!?"
"It's not important. Give it to me. It's because of it that they are still looking for you in the inn."
After hearing this, the man in black suddenly widened his eyes and shouted: "No! It's impossible! This sachet is me..." The man in black paused mid-sentence and changed his words: "In short, it's impossible.
.”
"Okay, then you can continue to stay here." After Jiang Beiran said that, he stood up and said, "Ling Dang, pack up and let's go."
"Yes, Master."
Seeing that the cultivator was about to leave after a disagreement, the man in black was a little scared and shouted quickly: "Are you...are you sure?"
But Jiang Beiran ignored her and just waited quietly for Lingdang to pack her luggage.
Seeing that the maid was about to pack up the bedding, the man in black was heartbroken. He took out a purple sachet from his waist and handed it to Jiang Beiran: "Here! Here it is!"
Seeing that the cultivator still ignored her, the woman in black became anxious because she could hear the footsteps of the officers and soldiers coming towards them.
Seeing that the man in black was so anxious that he could only jump to his feet, Jiang Beiran said, "When you ask for help, you have to have an attitude of asking for help."
Considering the possibility of continuing to help this woman in the future, Jiang Beiran decided to set the rules first, otherwise it would be too troublesome to persuade her for a long time every time.
The man in black trembled after hearing this, bit his lip lightly, and just as he was about to scold him, he saw that the cultivator was already preparing to leave from the window.
"Please sir, save me!" the man in black shouted, holding the sachet with both hands.
Looking back at the man in black with his head lowered, Jiang Beiran reached out and took the sachet she handed over.
"Wait, then."
After saying that, he jumped out of the window.
Just as the man in black was wondering what was going on, the menacing footsteps at the door suddenly disappeared. A moment later, he heard those footsteps rushing out of the inn.
At this point, no matter how stupid the man in black is, he knows what is going on. No wonder those people find him so easily. It turns out...
'How could this happen...how could this happen.'
The man in black was emotionally depressed for a while, because this sachet was given to her by the person she trusted the most, but now...
After about a cup of tea, Jiang Beiran returned to the inn room, threw the sachet back to the man in black and said: "It's okay now."
But the man in black did not pick up the sachet, but stepped on it hard.
After venting his anger, the man in black stood up and saluted Jiang Beiran solemnly, "Thank you very much for your help."
Nodding, Jiang Beiran sat back at the table and asked Xia Lingdang to make another pot of tea.
At this time, Jiang Beiran had already determined that the man in black was probably a bait, put out to catch something. Otherwise, it would have been based on the positioning of this formation and her brain of wearing night clothes during the day.
She would definitely be captured in a matter of minutes.
The most obvious thing is that that person clearly had the ability to carve formations into her sachet, but he let a group of officers and soldiers search for her. This obviously had another purpose.
As for what this purpose is, Jiang Beiran needs more information before he can guess further.
After the room was quiet for a while, intermittent sobbing suddenly sounded from the side of the bed. Jiang Beiran turned around and saw that the man in black had turned his back, and raised one hand from time to time to wipe away his eyes.
It was obvious that she couldn't vent her emotions freely because there were outsiders around.
But this strength only lasted for a while, and soon the man in black wiped his tears more and more frequently, and finally burst into tears.
Seeing this, Xia Lingdang wanted to go up and hand over a handkerchief, but before handing it over, she glanced at the host first. Seeing that the host nodded towards her, Xia Lingdang walked up and handed the handkerchief to the man in black.
Taking the handkerchief handed over by Xia Lingdang, the man in black took a deep breath, turned his head and looked at the practitioners at the table and said, "Thank you,"
Jiang Beiran shook his head and said: "She wanted to give you the handkerchief herself, you should thank her."
After hearing this, the man in black turned to look at Xia Lingdang. He was about to say thank you, but found that her beauty... her beauty was different from ordinary people.
After being stunned for a moment, the man in black nodded and said, "Thank you."
Xia Lingdang laughed after hearing this: "You're welcome, I didn't do anything..."
The man in black nodded, then turned back and continued crying.
She kept crying like this for a long time, and Jiang Beiran was a little worried about whether she would be short of water.
'It seems that she has been suppressed for a long time.' Jiang Beiran sighed in his heart, looked at Xia Lingdang and said: "Build a bed for her next to her and put a mattress on it."
"yes."
Xia Lingdang immediately followed the instructions.
Jiang Beiran undressed and went to bed. Tomorrow he was going to have a battle of wits with an old fox. He had to get enough sleep today.
…
Yin Shi.
At this moment of complete silence, the man in black who had finished venting washed his face, put on his black mask again and walked softly to the door. After saluting in the direction of the bed, he gently opened the door and left.
go out.
After closing the door again, the man in black took a deep breath and then walked out of the inn with firm steps.
Just when she walked to the small courtyard outside the inn, the practitioner who was supposed to be sleeping in the room suddenly walked out from behind the pillar in front.
"Are you just leaving without saying goodbye?"
Hearing Mr. Cultivator's words, the man in black quickly saluted and said: "Sir, I have been so kind to you. I will try my best to repay you in the future. But now I am troubled by many things, so please forgive me."
To be honest, Jiang Beiran was quite fond of the man in black's move of leaving without saying goodbye.
Because he could see that the man in black needed help now, but she didn't ask him for help in the end. The reason was simple.
That's because she doesn't want to drag herself into this muddy water.
It can be said that if you put aside the behavior of those wealthy people, you can be considered to be of pure nature.
To be continued...
