Chapter 3686 Ji Ran's Day Off
"Uh... you're awake?"
Ji Ran had just gone downstairs to buy some soy milk, fried dough sticks and buns. When he came back, he saw Xiao Su had woken up and was sitting on the edge of the bed. He lit a cigarette, but didn't smoke it. He was just in a daze.
"It turned out to be you." Xiao Su was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "I didn't see anyone when I woke up, and I thought someone had picked up my body last night."
Ji Ran closed the door calmly, "Do you often get drunk?"
Xiao Su shrugged and said, "Men will find it easy to get their hands on a woman who gets drunk easily, right?"
Ji Ran did not deny it. The room was full of smoke, so she simply opened the window.
"Don't...it's a bit cold." Xiao Su said quickly, and wanted to put out the cigarette in his hand, but he couldn't find the container, so he had to hurriedly pick up his clothes and handbag and ran to the bathroom.
Ji Ran frowned. The temperature today had indeed dropped a lot, at least six or seven degrees.
She felt it when she went downstairs to buy breakfast. She heard that a strong cold air suddenly appeared in the north in the past two days, there were heavy rains in many coastal areas, and there were also a series of strong earthquakes in the southwest.
It seemed as if everything happened at once, and many people on the Internet were discussing this matter... [Qilin City] just cooled down, which is still good.
"I should go back now. Thank you for last night. I'll treat you to dinner when I'm free!" When Xiao Su came out, she had already put on her makeup. She was applying lip balm, "[Four Seasons Flowers Bloom], I'll remember your name! Bye~"
Ji Ran opened his mouth subconsciously, but in the end he didn't try to persuade her to stay.
Her understanding of Xiao Su was not limited to the few words Xiao Su said after he got drunk in the barbecue restaurant last night... After bringing Xiao Su back to the apartment last night, Ji Ran actually gave Xiao Su acupuncture.
A type of acupuncture that can control a person's mind and achieve a hypnotic effect.
At first she was just doing a lie detector test, but as she got to know Xiao Su better, Ji Ran suddenly had some different ideas... Watching from the window that Xiao Su had already gotten into the online taxi and left, Ji Ran picked up her coat and put it on.
……
The town is not far from the famous [Xitang] water town, and the straight-line distance to [Qilin City] is about 900 kilometers - Ji Ran set out early in the morning, it took him more than an hour to leave [Qilin City], and then it took him more than an hour to get here.
The main reason was that I ran to the wrong place halfway, otherwise it should have been faster.
Life in the small town is simple and quite slow. Aunties sit in front of their houses in groups of three or four, chatting about something. They can't help but be curious about the sudden appearance of a woman who is so exquisite that she seems to have turned on a filter in the town.
There is an alley here, with more women sitting there. Xiao Su said that what impressed her most was the alley in front of her hometown. Any dog that passed by it would be ruined.
Facing the secret pointing and criticizing, Ji Ran did not tolerate it. He raised his palm to his lips and blew gently, and a pink-green spiritual energy instantly melted into the air.
The gossipy ladies in the disgraced alley all sat still as if their acupoints were pressed.
Ji Ran passed by like a spring breeze, and finally stopped in an old two-story blue brick house.
The door was only half-open, and a man in his fifties was sitting on a recliner in the yard smoking a hookah... Ji Ran hesitated for a moment, then pushed the door open and walked in.
After leaving [Qilin City], this world had almost no suppression on her... Although the spiritual energy level of Shenzhou was not as good as [Youmingtian], it was already close to the lower continent of [Canglan], and was still growing.
There is nothing noteworthy in this small town... Only in the big mountain behind, there is a demonic aura fluctuation from time to time, which seems to be very cautious.
The demonic energy was too weak. Although Ji Ran, as the [Princess of the Underworld], did not major in martial arts, she had her own cultivation level after all, so naturally she did not take it seriously.
"Are you Lin Gengtang?"
The sudden question made the old man who was smoking a pipe a little confused. When he saw clearly that the person who broke in was a woman with bright eyes and white teeth, who should not appear in such a small town, he was stunned for a long time, "Yes, I am... who are you looking for?"
"Lin Liwei is your son?" Ji Ran asked again calmly.
"Yes." The old man... Lin Gengtang nodded subconsciously, "Are you looking for Ah Wei?"
He might be wondering why his son knew such a remarkable woman.
Ji Ran said again, "So, Huang Cuirong is your wife, and Su Xiaozhen is your adopted daughter, right?"
"Who are you?!" Lin Gengtang frowned and stood up. "What are you doing in my house?"
When he stood up, he was almost 1.9 meters tall, which was considered burly for a southerner of his age, with a sturdy body and a face full of flesh.
Ji Ran flicked his fingers slightly, and the tall and strong Lin Gengtang fell to his knees on the ground in an instant.
"I can't move?" Lin Gengtang was shocked. "What did you do to me!"
"Let me ask you." Ji Ran took out a silver needle and stabbed it directly in front of Lin Gengtang's eyes, "Have you ever violated Su Xiaozhen?"
“I didn’t… I didn’t!! Aa ...
The silver needle instantly pierced Lin Gengtang's left eye, causing him to almost faint from the pain. However, a strange airflow flowed through his body, making him more awake.
He was still kneeling on the ground, unable to move, and at this moment, Ji Ran put the silver needle in his hand in front of his other eye again, "If you don't behave, you won't have a third eye anymore."
"...Yes, Su Xiaozhen asked you to come?" Lin Gengtang's face was extremely pale, half of it was in pain, and the other half was obviously in fear. "Where is she! Call her! Her mother died of illness two years ago, and I helped bury her... If there is any grudge, I will discuss it with her... Let me go! I, I did something wrong... I have always regretted it..."
At this moment, an equally sturdy young man rushed out of the house, holding a knife for chopping wood in his hand, "Let go of my dad!"
Ji Ran snapped his fingers again, and the young man fell onto the stone slabs in the yard.
"You must be Lin Liwei." Ji Ran said expressionlessly, "No hurry, after all, you have a share... I still have a lot of time today."
boom--!
The yard door closed automatically without any wind.
……
After lunch, it is a good time for idle men to go around the houses...A man who was about fifty years old pushed open the door of Lin Gengtang's house.
"Lao Lin, have you eaten yet? I'm here to discuss something with you. When were the banana trees next to your fish pond cut down? They're growing next to me... Lao Lin?"
The man walked into the house and instantly fell to his knees, his face pale with fear.
Lin Gengtang and his son were seen hanging on the beams of the house at this time. They looked extremely frightened, as if they had seen something terrible before they died.
“Someone’s dead! Someone’s dead!!!”
The old man crawled out of Lingengtang's old house.
……
People in the town live door to door, so the news spread quickly during the leisurely time after lunch... Ji Ran was sitting in a snack bar with a happy expression, eating tofu pudding, a local specialty.
The main reason is that her spending power is limited to this amount.
Looking at the people outside the street gradually walking towards Lin Gengtang's house, Ji Ran actually didn't know why he came here today... It was as if he suddenly had an idea, as if he was in the mood to eat something, or go somewhere, so he just left.
When she was in [Netherworld], she suddenly remembered that she needed to collect some medicinal herbs, so she left immediately.
The practitioner follows his heart and only seeks to have a clear mind...Ji Ran thinks it is worthwhile to spend half a day to make his mind flow smoothly.
Ji Ran didn't even think about telling Xiao Su about how Lin Gengtang and his son had been dealt with. Perhaps many years later, when she had the courage to set foot in this place again, she would find that the father and son were dead, and Huang Cuirong had also died of illness.
The tofu pudding is good and sweet.
She packed an extra portion, intending to have it as dessert after dinner when she returned...When leaving the town, Ji Ran suddenly remembered the weak demonic aura in the mountain behind the town, and she changed direction with an idea in her mind.
The last time I walked out of [Qilin City] in the middle of the night, I met several [supernormal people], all of whom were humans, and they were also practicing Taoism... but I didn't encounter any monsters.
There are actually quite a few monsters visiting Dr. Long's hospital every day, but the monsters in the [Forbidden Zone] are not very powerful and there is nothing worth studying... Ji Ran has long been interested in the monsters here.
I wonder if the monsters in Shenzhou are different from those in [Canglan]?
……
……
In the forest, two young men in black suits were exploring one after the other... Bu Bugao was holding a demon power detector and constantly adjusting the direction.
Wang Hu followed behind with an expressionless face, holding a large bag of roasted sweet potatoes...The arm holding the bag of roasted sweet potatoes was actually a metal arm.
"...Strange, where did that guy hide? The direction should be correct, right?" Bubugao couldn't help but frowned, "Ah Hu, stop eating. Do you sense the evil spirit?"
Wang Hu said without thinking: "I sensed it, and it disappeared again, but it shouldn't have gone far."
Bu Bugao scratched his head. The weather in various places had been abnormal in the past two days, and the fire-fighting systems across the country had exploded... Not only that, many monsters that had been hiding in the deep mountains and forests to practice had taken the opportunity to run out.
Bu Bugao and Wang Hu were chasing a goat demon at this time. After coming down the mountain, this guy sucked the essence of more than a dozen living people in succession... Some of them probably got too high while sucking and directly sucked the people dry.
The local administration can no longer tolerate this.
Last night Bu Bugao had already locked onto the goat demon's location, but the demon cleverly escaped... But the demon was also hit by Wang Hu, so he was probably seriously injured.
Wang Hu said that he was very gentle and was already showing mercy.
Bu Bugao believed it - because they had been partners for so long, he found that Wang Hu was really fierce - but when he thought that Bu Bugao was a South China tiger that had become a demon, he felt relieved.
The tiger, the king of beasts, can become a spirit... Isn't being fierce a basic skill?
"That guy must be afraid of you and dare not come out." Bu Bugao sighed.
This goat demon actually has some abilities, and has learned some Taoist magic. He is very good at earth escape and knows some talismans, which seems to be some kind of ancient Taoist inheritance.
No one can tell what kind of experiences these monsters that escaped from the deep mountains and old forests have had... After all, before the revival of spiritual energy, many Taoist traditions could not be practiced, and even if they were obtained, they would be like waste paper.
"Let's split up and look for him." Bubugao thought for a moment and said, "That guy is seriously injured. Even if I run into him first, I should be able to find you to come and support me... But don't leave me too far, Ah Hu!"
"Oh!"
Then Wang Hu disappeared without a trace.
The corners of Bubugao's mouth twitched involuntarily. He had no choice but to pick up the detector and continue searching seriously.
After a while.
Boom—suddenly a thunder sounded.
Bubugao was stunned. Although the weather had been strange in the past two days, it shouldn't rain nearby today, right?
Suddenly a strong wind blew, and a low scream seemed to be heard from the forest... Bu Bugao's face instantly became solemn. He took out some equipment from his suitcase, equipped with spell bullets and a defensive umbrella, and approached the source of the sound cautiously.
"Ah Hu, I have something going on here, you come back first!"
Strictly speaking, Bubugao is not yet a true [supernatural], but he has already practiced the secret manuals distributed by the Administration, and has now cultivated the true qi of a warrior. With the equipment provided by the Administration, he can actually deal with ordinary low-level monsters alone without any problem, and can also deal with mid-level monsters.
His progress is not slow, he just can't compare with the geniuses and elites... However, Wang Hu is a very powerful logistical support, so Bu Bugao has made several contributions in the past few months.
Bu Bugao had hoped that Wang Hu would officially become an agent after several years of hard work and graduate from the support logistics department. However, his application could not pass the review process and was rejected on the grounds that Wang Hu had lost his memory and his life experience could not be investigated.
At this moment, Bu Bugao stepped on empty air and fell directly!
Fortunately, he still had some strength on him at this time, and he stabilized his body in a hurry, and finally landed safely without falling like a dog.
Just as he was feeling relieved, Bu Bugao suddenly took a breath of cold air.
All he saw was a huge sheep's head appearing in front of him!
Bu Bugao held his breath suddenly...the place where he fell was a steep slope, and below the slope was a hidden mountain stream!
At this time, the sheep's head was placed on a piece of talc beside the stream... The blood from the neck had already seeped down along the stone.
Looking at the sheep head with eyes wide open and extremely frightened, Bubugao shuddered suddenly - this was the evil goat demon he was chasing!
——Who killed him?
Bu Bugao swallowed subconsciously and took two steps back cautiously - he planned to meet up with Wang Hu first and then make other plans.
But at this moment, Bubugao's leg suddenly felt numb, and it turned out that something hit the acupoint on his leg.
He fell directly to the ground and looked around in horror.
Suddenly, a figure walked out from among the reeds beside the stream.
Bu Bugao was stunned for a moment.
I saw a woman with bright eyes and white teeth, walking towards me with her sleeves rolled up... In one hand, she was holding a pair of washed sheep lungs, and in the other hand, she was holding two meat balls tied with reeds.
Looks like... Yang Bao?
Emmmm…
……
This time, I went into the mountains on a sudden impulse and the harvest was quite good.
In fact, many parts of this somewhat powerful Aries monster's body can be used as medicine, and Ji Ran also plans to expand the medicinal material library in this world - but she never thought that just when she had finished processing the sheep's lungs and sheep's treasure, she felt someone approaching.
In the unclear situation, she did not kill the man, but simply subdued him.
Looking at Bu Bugao who fell to the ground and lost the ability to move, Ji Ran couldn't help but frowned - because she saw the small notebook that fell out of Bu Bugao's body.
The emblem of the Shenzhou Administration!
The reason why Ji Ran recognized this thing was because there were hotline numbers and advertisements for the administration on TV every day... calling on the public to report any [supernatural] incidents they encountered.
"Is this Aries demon a wanted criminal of the Administration?" Ji Ran thought for a moment and guessed roughly.
When she entered the mountain and found the Aries demon tribe, they were obviously injured, and their injuries were not light... If they hadn't attacked her without asking any questions, she might have been able to eat some grass by now?
"It...it was you who killed it?" Bubugao trembled.
Suddenly, a figure flashed out and rushed directly towards Ji Ran without any pause.
Wang Hu is here.
——What a powerful demonic aura!
Ji Ran's face changed instantly and she threw away the thing in her hand... She was not good at fighting and she didn't even have time to protect her vital parts.
Wang Hu punched out!
In an instant, the demonic power exploded, directly breaking the stream in the mountain. The water burst into the sky and turned into drizzle, instantly filling the surroundings with water mist.
In the mist, Wang Hu's eyes were unusually strange. During the battle, he did not show any of his usual dullness, as if he was an ancient ferocious beast.
"Got you."
Wang Hu’s figure flashed out and rushed straight into the water mist.
Ji Ran was feeling the severe pain in her arms at this moment. She was horrified at the same time, and the strength in her body was directly catalyzed into the drug effect and spread out... If she was hit by such a punch again, her body would probably fall apart!
Was it my bad luck that I ran into a powerful demon randomly... or were there many such demons in Shenzhou? Or was it because I had stayed in [Qilin City] for too long, so I had some misunderstandings about this world?
"The Medicine God Canon is useless?!"
"Ba Fist!"
Wang Hu's fist was seen expanding wildly in Ji Ran's mind like a huge shadow reaching the sky... The medicinal power that she catalyzed and converted was actually unable to produce any effect on Wang Hu at all - she didn't know whether it was because the opponent's resistance was too high, or because the Medicine God Canon really didn't work here.
But Ji Ran had no time to think about these things, she had to deal with them with all her strength.
"Wait, Ah Tiger, show mercy!!"
call--! ! !
Wang Hu's fist suddenly stopped, and the terrifying wind from the fist caused Ji Ran's cheek to vibrate for a long time...even his hairstyle changed.
The mist dispersed a little, and Bubugao staggered over with an umbrella, "Don't hurt anyone, ask first!"
"Oh."
Wang Hu had already withdrawn his hand. Upon hearing this, he simply nodded and returned to his dull look.
Ji Ran looked at Bu Bugao who was already able to move, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes... Although she just sealed him casually, the other party still broke through her seal!
Moreover, this seemingly weak agent of the Administration could actually command an extremely ferocious demon like Wang Hu... Ji Ran was even more confused about the situation.
At this time, Bu Bugao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Ji Ran did not have any obvious injuries.
He cleared his throat, straightened his messy face, and said seriously: "Miss, please show me your [Abnormal Creature ID Card], I need to verify your identity."
