Ever since Wen Wan started to practice "The True Art of Sword Control and Clear Heart", she never slept. Whenever she had nothing to do at night, she would spend her time meditating.
Talent is important, but only hard work can make talent shine.
Wei Ran stepped aside and allowed Wen Wan to come in from the outside.
After Wen Wan entered the house, she quickly said: "Senior brother, someone is sneaking around."
Wei Ran shook his head and said, "I know, it's okay."
Then he waved his hand, and the candles in the room were lit again.
At this time, he looked at the wooden bookshelf behind the desk in the room.
There is nothing strange about the bookshelf, but there is a throwing knife stuck on the bookshelf that shouldn't be there.
Wei Ran walked up to the flying knife and reached out to take it off. There was a note tied to the handle of the flying knife.
Wei Ran opened the note and saw a few words written in black ink - If you want the roots of the white jade tree, come to this place alone.
The detailed address is written below this sentence.
Wen Wan walked up to Wei Ran, and Wei Ran showed the note to Wen Wan.
In the past three days, Wei Ran had told Wen Wan all the ins and outs of the incident.
Wen Wan looked at the words on the note and said, "This may be a trap for senior brother."
Wei Ran nodded and said, "I know, but I still want to go."
Wen Wan immediately said: "I will accompany senior brother."
Wei Ran smiled and said, "You didn't see the words on the note, you want me to go alone."
Wen Wan held the note in her hand, frowned and said, "But, it's too dangerous."
Wei Ran said: "Of course I know there is danger, that's why I want to go."
Wen Wan said anxiously: "Senior brother!"
Wei Ran put his hands on Wen Wan's slender shoulders and said with a smile: "Okay, Wen Wan, you can rest assured that if I don't take this risk, things will hardly turn around. Crisis, crisis, danger and opportunity coexist. .”
Wen Wan squinted her eyes and stared at Wei Ran's face seriously.
Wei Ran also looked at her and said: "Since you came to Huxia Town, your senior brother Li Chao has been searching for clues about the five keys, white jade branches, white jade leaves, and white jade seeds. Who knows who has these three keys? But the location of this white jade tree root has never been found. Now that the clue is right in front of me, I must go there."
Wen Wan said: "What if the Seven Kills of Destiny explodes and deliberately deceives you? They all know that the White Jade Fruit is in your hands, and their goals are also very clear. Senior brother, you also know that they will get it from you. The white jade fruit inside will definitely use all kinds of conspiracies."
Wei Ran smiled and said, "I know, I know, I know everything."
Then Wei Ran came close to Wen Wan's face and said softly: "Don't I still have you?"
"Wen Wan, now you have the strength to turn the tide, I believe in you."
"But..." Wen Wan still wanted to argue.
But Wei Ran immediately interrupted her and said, "Or do you mean you don't believe in yourself, or do you doubt my vision?"
Wen Wan lowered her head and murmured: "I..."
"Okay, Wen Wan, not only do you and I have an identity jade token to contact us, but we also have the 'Minghun Wandering God' spell. Even if my identity jade token is lost in an accident, you can use this spell to directly communicate with my soul. We need to make contact to communicate." Wei Ran looked at Wen Wan and said earnestly: "As long as I have a problem, I will tell you as soon as possible, so you can rest assured."
Wen Wan is an obedient child. No matter what decision Wei Ran makes, he will not refute it, but he will still stand up for things that are too dangerous.
Wen Wan heard what Wei Ran said. After a long silence, she slowly said, "You must tell me."
Wei Ran smiled and nodded.
Wen Wan suddenly stretched out her hand with a jade bracelet and grabbed Wei Ran's clothes, and said with a trembling voice: "I... you are the only family I have... I don't want to lose it again..."
Wei Ran helplessly touched Wen Wan's head and said, "Harm! It's not that serious. I just went to check the situation. If I encounter danger, don't I know how to run?"
Wen Wan nodded gently, then let go of her hand, and said, "As long as you call me, I will definitely appear."
Wei Ran smiled and nodded, then walked to the window sill.
Finally, he said to Wen Wan: "By the way, I still ask you to take care of the little kite. With these talismans and magic weapons, as long as they are used properly, there will be no problem walking sideways in Huxia Town."
Wen Wan looked at him and nodded, the expectation and worry in her eyes undisguised.
Then, Wei Ran stood up and flew out of the window, straight into the sky.
Wen Wan quickly came to the window sill and watched Wei Ran's figure disappear into the lightless night.
All she could do now was pray that Wei Ran would come back safely.
…
The sky and the earth are colorless, only boundless darkness.
The outline of the buildings in Huxia Town has disappeared into the distant horizon.
The whirling leaves scattered their leaves in the wind, and the fallen leaves floated down.
Wei Ran stood under the fallen leaves.
He was alone in the lonely woods, as if he was the only one left in the dark world.
Wei Ran put his hands behind his back and walked forward.
Walking slowly, but not stopping.
After passing through an unknown number of trees, he finally saw a pavilion not far away.
The pavilion is not big and can only accommodate eight people.
There is a stone table in the middle of the pavilion where things can be placed.
At this time, there were things placed on the stone table. Things appeared at a time and place that shouldn't have appeared.
The things on the table were wine, a jug of wine, and two wine glasses.
The wine is good. Wei Ran smelled the aroma of the wine before he saw the pavilion. The cup is a blue and white porcelain cup. It was bought from the best porcelain shop in Ziwu Mountain and shipped here. One cup costs five taels. stone.
Wei Ran slowly came to the stone table in the pavilion and sat down.
He seemed to be dating a good friend here, admiring the moonless and starless scenery.
Wei Ran looked at the glass filled with wine in front of him and slowly picked it up.
Then he drank it all without hesitation.
At the end, Wei Ran said with emotion: "Good wine, really good wine."
But his voice was lost in the night wind.
Then there was no response to his words.
After a long time, Wei Ran filled up another glass for himself, picked up the wine glass, and said slowly: "It is a great regret in life that no one can drink such a beautiful wine with you."
At this time, someone answered his words.
"You like drinking, and you drank the wine I prepared for you. Aren't you afraid that I would poison the wine?"
The voice came from Wei Ran's back.
Wei Ran didn't turn around or ask who this person was, because when he heard his voice, Wei Ran already knew who this person was.
Wei Ran said slowly: "Even if this wine contains a huge intestinal poison, it would be a waste not to drink it."
"It's true that you are addicted to alcohol."
The person who spoke slowly walked from Wei Ran's back to Wei Ran's side, and then sat opposite Wei Ran.
When Wei Ran saw this person, he drank all the wine in his hand.
The man asked in confusion: "Why are you drinking?"
Wei Ran said with a smile: "Because I have an extra friend, I am very happy, so I drank this wine."
The man said disdainfully: "Me? Friend? Are you making me laugh?"
Wei Ran still smiled and said: "Friends can be the wind, clouds, trees, leaves, the stone bench under my butt, and of course they can be you."
The man said: "Aren't you curious why I invited you here?"
Wei Ran said: "I'm curious, but with wine in hand, everything will be fine."
The man said: "You know I'm waiting for you."
Wei Ran said: "I know you are waiting for me, and only you know that I am waiting for you too."
The man said: "Haha, it seems Wen Wan didn't keep his promise."
Wei Ran looked at the face of the person opposite, a pair of pig ears, but a pig nose on the face of a handsome man.
Wei Ran smiled and said to Pete Pig: "You don't want her to keep her promise, right?"
Pete Pig snorted coldly, picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it all in one gulp.
Then he said: "Aren't you afraid that this is a trap? You have the White Jade Fruit in your hand. Everyone's eyes are staring at you. Do you really dare to come alone? Are you really not afraid of death?"
Wei Ran said leisurely: "The White Jade Fruit in my hand has nothing to do with whether I dare to come or not."
Pete Pig said coldly: "I don't know if you are overconfident in your own strength, or because you are a fool."
Wei Ran raised his shoulders and said, "Anyway, I'm not the only one taking risks. If you're not afraid, what should I be afraid of?"
