i know i'm sick

Chapter 36

"Drink some tavern".Black plaques, red lanterns, slanting tile eaves, doorway shaded by green bamboos, and ordinary decorations can't hide the publicity of the inscriptions on the plaques.

Looking at the familiar handwriting, Yang Anning couldn't help but ask, "Did you inscribe the words?"

Ling Ran smiled slyly, and said: "It's me, this tavern belongs to the Holy Church, it doesn't make much money, but it's a good place to inquire about news."

This must be a good place to inquire about information!The people who come and go are all Jianghu people who buy weapons, relatives, friends, and colleagues, come to the tavern for a drink when they rest, even if they are not drunk, how many gossip will unconsciously spread from their mouths under the drunkenness?

Ling Ran did a good deal!

Ling Ran was a little complacent, he lowered his head, and said in Yang Anning's ear: "Actually, I am the biggest information dealer in Jianghu now, but unfortunately those famous and decent people don't know about it, and they often patronize my business, usually I will give them a call." Great discount..."

The breath of Ling Ran's words hit Yang Anning's ears, making half of his body numb.

Yang Anning took a few steps forward, seeing Ling Ran's complacent look, couldn't help but also laughed.

71.

There were not many people in the tavern.

Ling Ran and Yang Anning were sitting in the corner of the lobby, there was a screen next to the table, blocking their shadows.

Ling Ran didn't take Yang Anning to the private room, although the environment in the private room is better, but the privacy is also better, not as much as what you can see in the lobby.

Ling Ran ordered a pot of wine for himself, a pot of tea for Yang Anning, and some side dishes to accompany the wine. He sat comfortably in his seat and watched the scene in the lobby with Yang Anning.

As noon approached, the number of people in the tavern gradually increased.

Yang Anning watched the people coming and going in the lobby. Some came alone, and left money without hesitation after drinking and eating meat; They laughed out loud; some of them walked together, but they didn't communicate much, and each silently swallowed the food in front of them.

Apart from carrying weapons on their bodies, these knights of the rivers and lakes seemed to be no different from him.

"They're just ordinary people." Ling Ran said, throwing a peanut into his mouth.

Only then did Yang Anning realize that he had spoken what was in his heart, and he said to Ling Ran, "It's because I think the world is too different."

Ling Ran wanted to answer something, but inadvertently caught a glimpse of several people walking into the door.With a playful expression on his face, he pointed to the door and said, "An Ning, look at those people who just came in."

Yang Anning looked in the direction he pointed, and saw a few young men in gray shirts with long swords on their backs. They didn't seem to be much different from the previous guests.

"What's so special about them?"

Ling Ran smiled and said, "They are disciples of the Cangyuan Sect."

Yang Anning was startled, and couldn't help paying more attention to them.

Several young people sat down at the table in the center of the hall, ordered drinks and dishes, and started chatting. They had no intention of avoiding others, and their voices were quite loud.

"Brother, this time Master sent us out to buy so many weapons, is it true that we are going to start a war with the Demon Cult?"

"How can we figure out Master's thoughts? But judging from the current situation, it should be nine out of ten. The demonic sect is becoming more and more powerful. If we don't stop it, it may become a catastrophe in the future."

"That's right, people in the Devil's Cult are becoming more and more rampant. I'm afraid that my Cangyuan faction alone won't be able to do it. It's better to hold a martial arts conference and join forces with other sects to crusade against the Devil's Sect."

"I heard that Ling Ran, the leader of the Demon Cult, has high martial arts skills, is insidious and cunning, I wonder if the leader is his opponent?"

"Hmph! If all our sects work together, are we still afraid that he won't succeed? When the time comes to break into the main altar of the Demon Sect and chop this demon head under the sword, I will surely become famous in one battle!"

Yang Anning's expression was very strange. It was a wonderful thing to listen to others slandering him with Ling Ran, especially since Ling Ran was not only not angry, but rather excited.

Yang Anning lowered his voice and asked, "What did you do to provoke their resentment?"

Ling Ran rolled his eyes and said, "I can only say that we are different and do not conspire with each other. The habits of our Western Miao people are different from those of the Central Plains people. The methods of doing things and the attitude towards people are definitely not the same. They are unwilling to accept us. Just find all kinds of reasons to exclude us, we have long been used to it."

Yang Anning put down the teacup: "So you guys still did something?"

Ling Ran looked at him with a half-smile, and said, "What did you do? Is it okay for a betrayed woman to make that betrayer unable to perform his duties in this life? A poor man who was framed by a friend breaks off his friend's limbs, cripples his Is it okay to lose your friend’s martial arts? Knowing that someone wants to harm you, is it okay to kill that person’s family first? An Ning, I have never said that the holy religion is upright, maybe our handling of some things is a bit biased , but which of the famous and decent families has not done the things we do? It’s just that we do it openly, while they can only do it secretly and privately.”

Yang Anning had nothing to say.This world is not black and white, even he has used many shady tricks in the mall.

The disciples of the Cangyuan sect changed the subject at this moment.

"Speaking of which, 20 years ago, the master led the heroes of the various sects to attack the main altar of the Demon Cult. Even the leader of the Demon Cult at that time was killed by the sword of the master. Unfortunately, the success fell short in the end. If it was possible to kill the grass and roots, today How can the Demon Cult be so arrogant and domineering?"

"Yes, yes, the master shouldn't be merciful at the beginning, leaving Ling Ran as a scourge, and raising a tiger to eat himself back. Not only was the devil Ling Ran not grateful to the master for saving his life, but he killed the master's life, it's really hateful !"

"If we can break into the main altar of the Devil's Cult again this time, we will definitely wipe out the roots and leave no future troubles!"

Ling Ran was expressionless, and there were two clear fingerprints on the wine glass in his hand.He doesn't care what they say about him, but what happened 20 years ago was Ling Ran's restricted area, and he heard them talk about it, so they have to be prepared to bear the consequences.

Yang Anning quickly pressed his hand to prevent him from getting up.

Yang Anning knew the truth of the matter. It was true that Ling Ran's father was stabbed to death during the war, but it was all lies about them letting Ling Ran go.If it wasn't for the presence of the Gu King, they would definitely not have left Ling Ran a way out.

But he can also understand the approach of the Cangyuan faction.Later, Ling Ran came to the door to take the life of the previous head of the Cangyuan Sect. The disciples in the sect were panicked, and they had to make up a lie to appease the disciples.It has been 20 years since the incident, and the original truth has been buried under time, leaving only their one-sided words.

Yang Anning said: "Ah Ning, don't be impulsive in public."

Ling Ran pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, that smile was somewhat cruel.

Before Ling Ran could speak, a clear female voice suddenly sounded in the lobby.

"Listen to your nonsense! Who doesn't know that you were the ones who couldn't kill Ling Jiaozhu, and were driven out of the mountain by him using Gu! Now you have the face to turn black and white here, and you are not afraid of the wind flashing your tongue!"

"Who is talking nonsense there? Come out!"

The disciples of the Cangyuan Sect patted the table and stood up one after another, and some of them also sacrificed their swords.

"It's me, your aunt!"

In the corridor on the second floor of the tavern, a girl was lying on the railing, waving at them.

Ling Ran suddenly relaxed, shaking his head and laughing.

"Who is she?" Yang Anning asked.

Ling Ran held Yang Anning's hand instead, and said, "She is Fan Yu's younger sister, Fan Ying, the eldest lady of Hidden Sword Villa."

Yang Anning looked at Fan Ying, the girl had bright eyes and white teeth, pink cheeks and red lips, big eyes with willow leaf eyebrows, and her eyes were indescribably vivid.

Yang Anning said: "You and Hidden Sword Villa really have a good relationship. It's fine for the young master to help you, and even the eldest lady will help you."

Ling Ran poured a glass of wine, put it to his mouth and drank it: "She is not talking for me. She has been chasing Ling Xiao for some time, but Ling Xiao has never agreed to her."

Yang Anning was taken aback, lowered her eyes and lowered her head.

At that moment just now, he was a little jealous!The beautiful young woman speaks for Ling Ran, his first reaction is to wonder what is the relationship between her and Ling Ran!

Yang Anning withdrew his hand, picked up the cup and took a sip of tea.

The disciples of the Cangyuan School also recognized the speaker as the eldest lady of Cangjian Villa, but they were young and vigorous, even if the speaker was a landlord, they couldn't help but retort.

Naturally, Fan Ying wouldn't give them face. After some verbal confrontation, the disciples of the Cangyuan Sect were defeated and left in despair.

The moment they stepped out of the tavern, Fan Ying said loudly: "In Yicheng, you should keep your tail between your tails and don't gossip like a gossip. Let me hear you spread rumors again, and I will ask my eldest brother to never sell weapons to you again." you!"

"How unreasonable!" Cangyuan Sect disciple said bitterly: "As the eldest lady of Hidden Sword Villa, you actually speak for the Demon Cult. I will definitely inform the owner of the villa and let him discipline you properly!"

Fan Ying's response to this was only one word: "Bah!"

"Ha..." Yang Anning laughed out loud, "What a straightforward woman, are you going to say hello to her?"

Ling Ran said: "No, what she wants to see is Ling Xiao, not me. She might not feel comfortable seeing me."

The two sat for a while, Yang Anning felt a little tired, so he stretched out his hand to touch his brow.

After seeing it, Ling Ran pulled him up and said, "Let's go out for a morning, let's go back and have a rest. There is still a lot of time, don't be too tired."

Yang Anning nodded.

72.

Zhang Qian arrived only one day later than Ling Ran and Yang Anning.

Early the next morning, before Ling Ran and Yang Anning had breakfast, Fan Yu brought Zhang Qian over.

Yang Anning's attitude towards Zhang Qian is very complicated.

He is grateful to Zhang Qian
