C86 Chapter 86

Wang Zhi'er pulled the ribbon tighter. "If you leave just like that, where do you want me, Wang Zhi'er, to go?" Wang Zhi'er looked at Bai Lan's back.

"This matter is known throughout the entire city. If you leave, my, Wang Zhi'er's reputation will be ruined."

"This matter is only a misunderstanding. I will help you clear it up." Bai Lan patiently explained to Wang Zhi'er.

However, Wang Zhi'er still tightly held onto the silk ribbon and did not relax for a moment.

The negotiation was fruitless. Bai Lan exerted his strength and shook the silk ribbon into pieces in an instant.

Wang Zhi'er was also shocked by this sudden force and was forced to take a few steps back.

"Are you not willing to be the son-in-law of the family?" Wang Zhi'er looked up and asked.

"The key is not here." Bai Lan turned around and patiently explained.

"I am not familiar with the young lady. Is it because I won over the young lady that I made such a careless promise?"

"I don't mind. What are you, a man, hesitating for?" Wang Zhi'er continued to speak shocking words.

Jiegeng was stunned when she heard this. She thought silently in her heart, The world is really big. There are all kinds of strange things.

"Why don't you beat me up again, Miss, and I will not fight back." Bai Lan could not do anything about it.

"No need." Wang Zhi'er replied coldly.

The two of them were in a deadlock just like that.

At this time, Old Master Wang also heard the news and rushed over. He even brought a lot of people with him.

"My dear daughter, who won against you?" Once Old Master Wang arrived at the inn, he immediately ordered people to surround all the exits of the inn.

"This is going to be troublesome." Duan Shihan saw the situation and shouted.

Lan Hong, who originally had a lot to talk about, now as the one chasing after the chief, did not dare to make a sound.

Following the gaze of his precious daughter, Old Master Wang immediately locked onto Bai Lan.

"Is it you?" Master Wang said to Bai Lan.

"You look extraordinary, not bad, not bad." From Old Master Wang's tone, it could be seen that he was very satisfied with Bai Lan.

"Master Wang, this is indeed a misunderstanding." Bai Lan could only impatiently explain, hoping that Old Master Wang was a reasonable person.

"Why are there so many misunderstandings!" In the end, it was completely out of Bai Lan's expectations.

"Daughter, if this guy doesn't comply, we'll tie him up and bring him back." Master Wang comforted his daughter.

Wang Zhi'er's cold appearance remained unchanged.

"Are those his gangs behind them? Tie them up and bring them back together!" Master Wang ordered.

"How is it? Do you want to fight?" Ouyang Lingfeng asked Duan Shuang.

"Don't make things worse. If the real enemy takes advantage of the situation, the loss will outweigh the gain." Duan Shuang shook his head.

"Then what should we do? Are we really going to be tied up like this?" Ouyang Lingfeng frowned as well.

"Just let Anzhao contact the chief guard here. Didn't they say that the Wang Family and the chief guard were related by marriage? At that time, just let the Great Guardian come forward. There's no need to cause a ruckus here." Duan Shuang was very calm.

Ouyang Lingfeng waved his hand.

Just as Bai Lan was about to resist, Jiegeng went forward and privately told him about Duan Shuang's plan. Only then did Bai Lan surrender.

Thus, everyone was locked up in a room in the mansion.

"Luckily, we weren't locked up in the dungeon." Lan Hong touched an ornament and said luckily.

"You still have the nerve to say it!" Jiegeng glared at him. "Who gave us this?"

"You can't think that way. If it wasn't for me, would Brother Bai have such a miraculous encounter? Perhaps, in the end, it would still be a beautiful marriage." Lan Hong rubbed his nose.

"If that's the case, you can be the groom." Bai Lan also looked at Lan Hong coldly.

"The young lady has her eyes on you, not me."

"Besides, if you are not willing, why would you be willing to be captured?" Lan Hong smiled thoughtfully. "I believe that, including me, the three of you are more than enough to deal with those people just now."

At this moment, the three of them looked at Lan Hong at the same time. Each of them had their own thoughts.

"Why are all of you looking at me? Isn't that right?" Lan Hong revealed his canine teeth, looking innocent.

At this moment, the Grand Guardian had also arrived at the Imperial Residence.

"Did you just catch a few passers-by?" When the Grand Guardian saw Old Master Wang, he immediately asked.

"You are so well-informed? One of them is the husband that Wu'er has recruited."

"We can't afford to offend these people. Hurry up and let them go." When the Grand Guardian entered, his expression didn't look any better.

"What's going on?"

"Those people are related to the Imperial Palace, they are going to carry out the secret order"

"But, one of the kids won against Zhi'er"

"Foolish. How could someone related to the Imperial Family be willing to become the son-in-law of your Wang Family?" The Grand Guardian cursed angrily.

"You, why is it that my niece is involved in this matter? Why don't you know the severity of the matter?" The Grand Guardian lectured. "If you're not careful, then that person might cause both your families to disappear from Spirit Martial City. Let them go before this matter gets out of hand. Otherwise, if we drag this on for too long, neither of us will be able to bear the consequences."

Not long after Duan Shuang and the others were locked up in the room, the firm lock was opened.

"What does this mean?" Lan Hong was the first to open the door and found that there was no one outside.

"What else can it mean? Of course, let's go quickly." Shihan replied impatiently.

"Master Wang let us go so easily?" Lan Hong did not believe it.

"Then you can stay here." Jiegeng stuck out her tongue at him.

The group of people left the mansion unimpeded.

"The things are already in the north of the city. Let's go directly to the north of the city." After receiving Anzhao's report, Duan Shuang informed everyone.

"Should we let him follow us?" Jiegeng thought. It would be best to take the opportunity to get rid of him.

"Hey, don't. I promise I won't cause any trouble in the future. " Lan Hong immediately swore. "At most, I will cover all of your expenses while I am following you."

"Who cares about you..." Duan Shuang interrupted Jiegeng before she could finish.

"Deal." Duan Shuang ordered Anzhao to secretly investigate for two days, but he still did not find out the origin of this person. Since he was willing to stay under his watch and was willing to be a fool, why not?

"But, how did this happen?" Lan Hong asked curiously.

"Use silence to stop the movement, do you understand?" Ouyang Lingfeng raised his eyebrows. "However, I don't think you have the brains to comprehend the profundities within."

The group soon arrived at the north of the city. They got on their horses and carriages and continued their journey.

One. In two hours, the group of people was getting faster and faster. Even Jiegeng, who was the most nervous, felt that something was wrong.

"What's going on? Why are we even faster than yesterday?" Jiegeng started to support the wooden fence inside the carriage.

"Yeah, this is too much." Shihan agreed.

"Stop the car!" Duan Shuang ordered, and everyone gradually stopped.

Duan Shuang took the lead to get off the carriage and said to Bai Lan directly, "You deal with it yourself."

Jiegeng and Shihan also jumped off the carriage. "What happened?"

"Haven't you found out yet?" Shihan knew the whole story as soon as she got off the car. "Look behind you."

Jiegeng turned her head and saw a yellow figure.

"This is not, not!" Jiegeng was so surprised that she started to stutter.

"Yeah, he caught up with us." Shihan looked at Bai Lan and teased him on purpose.

Bai Lan's face darkened.

Ever since he left the city, he had noticed Wang Zhi'er following him from behind. If he was alone, it would naturally be easy to get rid of her. But when he brought the carriage with him, the commotion would become bigger, and it would become much more difficult.

Helpless, Bai Lan could only go alone.

"Why did you follow me?"

Wang Zhi'er jumped off the horse lightly, still wearing the same stoic face. "I don't know how you guys persuaded my father, but rules are rules. You are the husband that I, Wang Zhi'er, have decided on."

"Why are you so stubborn?" No matter how good Bai Lan's temper was, Wang Zhi'er had provoked him again and again.

"Between you and me, not to mention liking each other, even if we don't know each other well, it is impossible." Fortunately, Bai Lan's upbringing was not bad, so he could still suppress his temper and explain to Wang Zhi'er.

"Then I will always follow you. First, I will start from getting familiar with you." Wang Zhi'er was repeatedly rejected and did not have the slightest intention of retreating.

"You are simply unreasonable." This Wang Zhi'er did not do anything to harm them. With her own conscience, Bai Lan could not directly knock her out and send her home. He could only wave his hand and ignore her.

When Bai Lan returned to the team, he could only helplessly say, "Don't worry about her. She will follow if she wants to. If she gets tired of following, she will naturally return."

"Since that's the case, just follow the original speed." Duan Shuang directly returned to the car.

After a small interlude, the team continued to move forward.

For the past few days, the group had been moving forward according to the original plan. The carriage had gradually become the exclusive carriage for the two girls.

"Ouyang Lingfeng, have you thought it through?" Duan Shihan angrily opened the car door and shouted at Ouyang Lingfeng in front of her.

Early this morning, Ouyang Lingfeng said that he had been here before and knew a shortcut. It only took him a day's work to cover the distance of two days.

Although Ouyang Lingfeng usually laughed and laughed, it made people feel that he was not very sure. However, when he became serious, he did not miss out on anything. Thus, the whole team followed Ouyang Lingfeng's instructions and walked on this shortcut.

"Shihan, don't be anxious. I remember that it is like this. If we walk a bit more, we might arrive." Ouyang Lingfeng quickly comforted her.

"The sun is about to set. Let alone seeing a town, there is not even a shadow of a person. Who are you trying to scare?" Shihan angrily closed the car door.

Duan Shuang raised his left hand and the group stopped.

"Bai Lan, Lingfeng, Lan Hong, you guys stay here first. I will go and scout around." After finishing his instructions, Duan Shuang used both of his legs to grab the horse's belly, and soon disappeared into the distance.

Shihan and Jiegeng also got off the carriage.

While waiting, Shihan and Ouyang Lingfeng bickered happily as usual.

"Brother Bai Lan, is the young lady of the Wang Family still following?" Jiegeng came to Bai Lan's side and asked. "It has been a few days. She should have left, right?"

Bai Lan patted the back of his horse and shook his head.

"We are still following them."

Jiegeng waved her hand and turned around. Slowly, she saw a faint yellow figure.

After a while, the sound of horse hooves in front of them became louder and louder. Duan Shuang's strong body soon appeared in front of them.

"How is it?" Lan Hong had just climbed up the tree in boredom. When he saw Duan Shuang come back, he jumped down.

"Lingfeng was right to come in this morning."

"You see, I told you I didn't lie to you." Ouyang Lingfeng immediately wanted to prove it to Shihan.

"Shut up." Shihan habitually hit Ouyang Lingfeng's chest.

"Then why do we seem to be moving further and further away now?" Jiegeng continued to ask.

"When we passed by a fork in the road at noon, we did not notice that the other road was blocked by falling stones on the mountain. So, we are now sparing a long way."

"Then what should we do? Should we return from a long way?" Shihan suggested.

"No need. There is a path ahead. But today, I don't think I can make it out in time."

"Then let's find a dry place near the river to camp for the night." Bai Lan suggested.

"That's the only way." Ouyang Lingfeng said. "But it seems like we will be able to reach the Central Prefecture tomorrow afternoon. It's still half a day faster than before, isn't it?" Ouyang Lingfeng looked at Shihan in a hurry.

Shihan rolled her eyes at him. The answer was self-evident.

Duan Shuang relied on his years of experience in the wilderness and his sensitivity to the terrain to quickly find the most suitable place to set up camp.

Anzhao swiftly took out a tent from the bottom of the carriage and quickly set up a few simple tents.

"Then what do we eat tonight?" Lan Hong asked.

"There are some dry food in the car. It should be enough for us to eat." After spending these few days together, Jiegeng gradually realized that Lan Hong was just a little playful and did not have any bad intentions. Her attitude towards him improved a bit.

"Just eat dry food?" Lan Hong frowned and raised his head. It seemed that he could pinch a fly to death.

"Jiegeng, do you want to catch fish?" Duan Shuang asked.

"Fish?" Jiegeng's eyes lit up. "Okay!"

"You too. Quickly go and catch a few pheasants or wild rabbits." Shihan kicked Ouyang Lingfeng's calf.

"If you want to eat it, I will go right away." Ouyang Lingfeng took the opportunity to touch Shihan's head.

"My skin is itchy again?" Shihan immediately knocked Ouyang Lingfeng's hand away.

"This kid also wants to go with me." Ouyang Lingfeng suddenly grabbed Lan Hong's neck from behind.

"Cough cough." Lan Hong looked confused. "Why should I go?"

"Cut the crap. If you don't go, you will have to eat some dry food later." Ouyang Lingfeng pulled Lan Hong away.

"Sister, the jealousy is quite strong." Jiegeng blinked her big eyes and said quietly beside Shihan.

"Little girl, take care of yourself." Shihan directly hooked Jiegeng's chin.

"You also say the same about me!" Jiegeng's most sensitive words right now were none other than "little girl film."

Because they had set up tents near the river, Jiegeng and Duan Shuang quickly came to the riverside.

Jiegeng immediately tied her skirt around her waist and even pushed her pants to her knees.

"Your Royal Highness, how do you want to grab it?" When there was no one else around, Jiegeng was still used to calling Duan Shuang 'Your Royal Highness'.

"Aren't you being too impatient?" Duan Shuang found a few thick tree trunks by the river. When he turned around, he found that Jiegeng had also removed her shoes and socks.

"Don't worry." Duan Shuang shook his head.

Duan Shuang picked the slimmest one among the few trees he picked up. He waved his arm and threw it into the middle of the river.

"The water is not deep. You can go down." Duan Shuang looked at the position of the water on the tree trunk and told Jiegeng.

"Go down directly. Do you want to use your hands to scoop it up?" Jiegeng raised her hands and opened her fingers. She moved her fingers and joints at the same time.

"Wait." Duan Shuang used the few tree branches to shake in front of Jiegeng.

Then Duan Shuang took out a dagger from his pocket and used the sharp edge to cut the trunk. "Have you seen how fishermen cut fish?"

"Yes, I have!" Jiegeng immediately happily took a tree trunk. "I saw it on the way. It was easy!"

"Really?" Duan Shuang asked on purpose.

"That's right. This fish is so big, and I can hit it with such a small acupoint. It's easy to catch a fish." Jiegeng waved the new tool.

"Are you sure you don't need me to teach you?" Duan Shuang confirmed it again. The corners of his eyes showed that he wanted to watch a good show.

"No need, no need!" Jiegeng was full of confidence. "Your Royal Highness, just wait for me to catch a few big fish!"

After saying that, Jiegeng excitedly ran towards the river.

Duan Shuang narrowed his eyes. He conveniently put his tools aside and sat down.
