Chapter 385: Just showing off a little bit of skills, that's all
Looking at Duan Yinghe's expression as if he had seen a ghost, Gu Yanchen was a little worried whether Ran Qingxuan would be exposed.
Duan Yi's face turned pale, and when he was about to ask, he suddenly felt a chill in his throat.
A Magnum dagger with a cold glow was placed on Duan Yi's aorta. Ran Qingxuan appeared behind him silently, and the dagger on his neck could take his life with just a slight touch.
"father..."
Duan Yi's voice was trembling slightly. Duan Yinghe turned around and saw the knife on his son's neck, and Ran Qingxuan took a step out from behind Duan Yi with a mocking look on his face.
"you..."
"See? As long as I want, no one can survive in my hands!"
Putting the dagger back into the sheath, Ran Qingxuan took a few steps back and returned to Gu Yanchen. This move was undoubtedly shocking in the eyes of the Duan family father and son.
How could they have imagined that Ran Qingxuan's 'body skills' were so powerful.
Duan Yi reached out and touched the neck that had been stabbed by the knife. The cold touch was still there. He never wanted to feel that hairy feeling again in his life...
Duan Yinghe admitted that he looked down on Ran Qingxuan. How could he be accepted and loved by the God of Killing who enjoyed the title of God of War in Northern Qi, but he was just a pretty face?
"My dear young marquis, if you have nothing else to do, my husband and I will leave first."
Gu Yanchen didn't want to stay any longer. What he learned today was something he had never dared to imagine in his entire life. He was afraid that if he continued to stay, he would become distracted.
Duan Yinghe wanted to keep the two of them for dinner, but after being rejected twice, he realized that Gu Yanchen really wanted to leave.
"I hope you will think long-term and not act impulsively before settling down."
Gu Yanchen: "I will investigate the matter in the secret letter. I will not act rashly before I get a definite answer."
"That's good, that's good..."
Duan Yinghe looked a little disappointed. Ran Qingxuan could feel that he must have a lot to say to Gu Yanchen, but he just didn't know where to start.
After leaving the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, Ran Qingxuan could clearly feel that Gu Yanchen was in a very low mood.
Although he knew clearly why, Ran Qingxuan did not choose to comfort him immediately, but stayed by his side silently.
The coachman from the Qi Mansion drove the carriage up to them. Ran Qingxuan knew that he was going to take him somewhere, so he spoke to the coachman.
"Please go back and tell Master Qi that we will stay in Hancheng tonight and return tomorrow."
The coachman was flattered by Ran Qingxuan's politeness and nodded in agreement.
It gets dark quickly in winter, and it was completely dark at half past six. Ran Qingxuan just stayed silently by Gu Yanchen's side until they were about to walk out of the gate of Hancheng.
"Where are we going now?"
Ran Qingxuan asked quietly, and Gu Yanchen pointed to a small shop near the city gate and said, "This wonton is good. Let's eat something hot before we leave."
"good."
The wonton shop is owned by a middle-aged couple, and those who come here to eat wontons are all about to leave the city.
After Gu Yanchen entered, he ordered two bowls of wonton and two pancakes, and took Ran Qingxuan straight to the innermost table.
The couple worked quickly and quickly, and soon the steaming wontons were on the table. Gu Yanchen considerately wiped the spoon with a handkerchief before handing it to her.
"Eat it while it's hot, or it will get cold later."
"Well, you eat too."
The wontons were indeed delicious, but Ran Qingxuan didn't believe that he brought him here just to eat a bowl of wontons.
When she left, she pretended not to notice the handkerchief left on the table. After they left the cold city, they drove away quickly while no one was around.
After entering Silver Moon City, Gu Yanchen first bought some food and packed it up at a restaurant in the city, then walked to the alley and asked Ran Qingxuan to put all the things into the space.
"Where are we going now?"
"Didn't I say before that I would take you to a place called Bai Niao Mountain in Silver Moon City?"
Ran Qingxuan remembered that she was afraid that the Wumen Dam would burst, so Gu Yanchen asked Wei Yiping to find the two people who escorted their family and ask them to take them to Bainiao Mountain for temporary shelter.
It was cold today, and the temperature difference was even greater on the mountain. Ran Qingxuan thought that it would not be as simple as delivering food at this late hour.
"Then let's go now and stay in the space tonight, and then go back to the Qi family tomorrow."
"I have the same plan."
Bainiao Mountain is in Yinyue City. It is not convenient for them to drive or take a carriage. It is only about one kilometer away. Gu Yanchen took her and used light skills to walk and stop, and they arrived in about twenty minutes.
There are more than a dozen households living scattered at the foot of Bainiao Mountain. At this moment, the doors of every household are closed, and occasionally one can hear the barking of dogs and the crowing of chickens.
It was not easy to climb the mountain. The two men walked up along the path made by the villagers. After walking around for nearly an hour, they saw a fire in a concave cave.
But before they could get close, a sound of breaking air suddenly came from above the cave.
Gu Yanchen was quick-witted and quick-handed. He suddenly pulled Ran Qingxuan into his arms and hid under the stone wall.
"It's me."
"Sixth Master?"
Gu Yanchen's voice rang out, and Kuang Ze and others who heard the noise in the cave also came out.
Zhuo Yong, who was on top of the cave, was almost scared to death by his own behavior. He jumped down and quickly walked to Gu Yanchen.
Just as he was about to confess his crime, he was stopped by Gu Yanchen.
"No problem, let's go into the cave first."
The temperature on the mountain was too low, and Gu Yanchen was afraid that Ran Qingxuan would catch a cold, so he went in directly.
Zhuo Yong followed behind, with a sad face when he passed by Wei Yiping and the others.
"what to do..."
"Be quick with your hands. If you hurt the lady, you'll be in trouble."
Inside the cave, the families of Shan Qi and others sat together around the fire to keep warm. They all came from poor backgrounds, and some were the only sons in their families. Wherever they took their parents, that was their home.
Some people are the only male in the family, and except for their married sisters, their parents are brought to live with them.
But there were also one or two people who brought their parents, brothers and sisters along. The cave was not big but was crammed with nearly twenty people. The thermal blankets they brought were also distributed, and were mostly used by the elderly and some children.
When these people saw two good-looking young men and women wearing cloaks coming in, they immediately stood up somewhat awkwardly.
Before Wei Yiping could introduce himself to everyone, he was stopped by Gu Yanchen, who put down the large food box he had taken out in advance and whispered.
"Don't make it public. We brought some things here. You and Zhuo Yong can go and move them."
Gu Yanchen signaled to Ran Qingxuan, who understood that what they brought was not enough.
These people will follow Gu Yanchen in the future, and it would not be good to let their families suffer as well.
After walking ten meters away, Ran Qingxuan took out two half-person-high travel backpacks from the space, and placed an order directly on the tablet, buying thirty blankets with excellent thermal insulation effects.
The backpacks were filled with blankets alone. Ran Qingxuan thought about it and realized that the Wumen Dam in Cangzhou had not burst, so these people could leave directly for Zixi County.
These blankets can also come in handy on the road, so you don't need to buy any other clothes.
But the conditions on the mountain were not good, and they probably hadn't eaten well during this period. The food boxes they brought only contained fifteen dishes, which was not enough for twenty or thirty people.
