Lin Ran lowered his head and drank his tea, not daring to say a word. He was a man of honor. That day he severely desecrated the starry sky, and now he missed it a little!

……

52. Spring Water City

It is said that women are particularly sensitive to other people's gazes. Lin Ran bravely questioned this conclusion which had no scientific basis and decided to conduct an experiment.

Of course, he did not make up such an excuse just because he wanted to be a hooligan. He was devoting himself to the great science!

Li Yuhan was still tasting the tea made from the leaves of the Tree of Wisdom. She had collected these things but had only drunk them a few times. That day, Lin Ran discovered them and the shameless guy took them for himself without any hesitation. If she had not come over today, this guy would have drunk all of them.

Feeling the coolness in her soul and the sense of clarity was really addictive. She couldn't help but close her eyes to feel it. As soon as she opened her eyes, she was met with a pair of shifty dog ​​eyes.

Li Yuhan raised her eyebrows, stretched out her slender jade fingers, and drew circles on Lin Ran's big hand on the table with a smile in her eyes. She asked knowingly: "What are you looking at... so engrossed? It feels like your eyeballs are about to pop out!"

Lin Ran was also very shameless. He grabbed the naughty little hand and rubbed it with his backhand. With a gangster-like look on his face, he smiled and said, "I'm looking at the stars!"

When she heard the word "starry sky", Li Yuhan recalled what happened that day. Although she concealed her expression well, a hint of pink could be seen on her vaguely visible white neck, and it was obvious that her heart was not as calm as she appeared to be.

She pretended not to know and said, "It's broad daylight, there is no starry sky, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Before Lin Ran could say anything, Li Yuhan took his hand back and continued with a straight face, "I'm not kidding you anymore. There's something I need your help to figure out!"

"What's the matter? I have already placed soul restrictions on anyone in the entire northwest region who can threaten you. I also gave you the token that controls them!" Lin Ran asked doubtfully.

He was also preparing for a rainy day. Although the little maid was the queen of the Northwest region, she had no means to deal with this group of Nirvana realm masters. It was difficult to control the Nirvana realm masters of the Li Dynasty alone. After all, they were the strongest among the Nirvana realm masters in the Northwest region.

As for killing them all, that is absolutely impossible.

If they are all killed, there will be no one left under the little maid. Without strong men with Nirvana realm strength, how can they be the overlord of the Northwest region? It is estimated that someone will attack us in a few days, and then the Northwest region will return to the previous chaos, and it may be even worse than before.

"That's not the case. They are very obedient!"

Li Yuhan shook her head. She had also come into contact with Li Tianyi and the royal guardian Li Lao during this period. They really had no objection to her becoming the queen.

She has been through so many years of experience and her ability to judge people is not bad. She can feel that the other party not only has no objection, but is even particularly happy for her to do it.

In fact, the reasons behind this can be understood if you just think about it. After all, the dynasty has not changed its name, and the people leading it are still from the royal family. Moreover, the territory has expanded, and there is one more strong man with the combat power of the Dragon Transformation Realm. Isn't this definitely a good thing?

Even if their lives are in someone's hands, so what? As long as Li Yuhan is still there and they don't do anything out of line, it's the same as nothing.

What's more, this restriction will be removed in the future as long as they behave well. In addition, Li Yuhan has provided a lot of training resources. They just need to concentrate on training, and be the first to deal with any major problems.

"If they're not causing trouble, then what is going on?" Lin Ran really couldn't figure it out.

Li Yuhan propped his elbows on the table, rubbing his cheeks, and said helplessly: "Something happened in Yun Province recently, and the Void Evil Clan you mentioned appeared again!"

"Ah, there are still remnants?"

Lin Ran couldn't help but be stunned, but then he thought, ever since he dealt with Andes, he has been in seclusion to recuperate. The last time he came out, he just took a walk around and knocked down some forces that were ready to make moves. He stayed in this Lin Mansion and didn't really go to wipe out the remnants of the Void Evil Clan.

"Those guys... should be the remnants of the Demonic Weapon Sect, right? Why do they dare to come out?" Lin Ran asked puzzledly.

If it were him, he would definitely find a place to hide, avoid the limelight for a period of time, and then sneak out to cause trouble. How come these guys came out to cause trouble before he even left?

"Who knows!"

Li Yuhan took out a small piece of paper from the space ring and handed it to Lin Ran.

Lin Ran took it and looked at it. When he saw the familiar place name, he was stunned. He took out the map that Xin Zhiqing gave him before leaving and looked at it, but found that he was not familiar with this place. He handed it to Li Yuhan and said, "Look and see if it is this place. I am not familiar with it!"

"map?"

Li Yuhan snorted lightly, took it and looked at it carefully. She herself was from the Chamber of Commerce, and she knew the terrain of various places in the Northwest region very well, but she could recognize it roughly.

After a while, Li Yuhan looked up from the parchment map and asked in surprise: "Where did you get this map? And the level of detail of the painting is also very professional..."

"According to the information reported by my men, traces of these guys were indeed found in Menghun Township near Chunshui City, and there have been a lot of strange disappearances in Sishui City recently. The main reason is that they saw that dark red demonic energy!" Li Yuhan said with a little fear.

Fortunately, it was discovered early. If it was discovered later and Lin Ran left, there would be no way to deal with this strange thing.

"Then I'll go and take a look tomorrow!" Lin Ran said.

"There's no need to be so anxious!"

Li Yuhan said with some concern: "It hasn't been long since your last battle, and you came out to help me in the middle. Have you recovered from your injuries? If you have any underlying illness, it will greatly affect your cultivation!"

"No, I'm in good health!"

Lin Ran proudly showed off his biceps. If it wasn't for the uncivilized act of his clothes bursting suddenly, he would have even wanted to show Li Yuhan his muscular upper body. But ever since the mysterious egg transformed his body last time, he felt like he had a lot of energy now.

But the strange thing that had entered his body could not be found anywhere, which was very strange.

Li Yuhan looked at Lin Ran showing off, lowered his head and took a sip of tea, muttering softly: "No matter how much you show off, there is no place to use it..."

Lin Ran had sharp ears, and when he heard what Li Yuhan said, he sat behind Li Yuhan with a smile and hugged Li Yuhan in his arms. Li Yuhan struggled symbolically for a while, then let Lin Ran do what he wanted.

Lin Ran put his arms around Li Yuhan's slender waist and rested his chin lightly on Li Yuhan's shoulder. The heat from his breath seemed to float to Li Yuhan's ears, causing the latter's body to tremble slightly. The hand that picked up the teacup trembled a little, indicating the ups and downs in his heart.

"I still remember...some guys still owe me a promise. Do you know what it is?" Lin Ran leaned close to the ear that was so white and tender that you could see the tiny hairs on it, and said while breathing hotly.

Li Yuhan suddenly struggled, but the hands on her waist were like handcuffs, locking her there tightly. But was it the hands that locked her, or was she unwilling to leave? Perhaps only she herself could know!

Li Yuhan felt that she was useless. Every time she faced this guy, if he got close to her, her body would suddenly become limp like a puddle of mud.

"You are really my nemesis in this life!" Li Yuhan leaned against Lin Ran's arms, listening to Lin Ran's strong heartbeat, and couldn't help muttering: "I know the promise. Since I said it, I will definitely do it, but I have to wait for a while. Then I promise to give you a big surprise!"

"Then I won't be in a hurry to leave!"

Lin Ran couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

In fact, Lin Ran had not intended to leave immediately after finishing dealing with things here. The matters with the Ghostly Face Flower were secondary. The most important thing was his little maid. He could not leave with peace of mind until the little maid had established a foothold in the northwest region!

"Hey, I'm afraid that you'll be so weak that you'll just stay here. Haven't you heard that there's no such thing as 'only dead cows, but no ruined fields'?" Li Yuhan said aggressively.

She is like a little vixen, or perhaps she is a vixen, and this vixen is showing off her ferocity with her babbling voice.

"Then I'll just have to wait and see who gets weak-legged!"

Lin Ran patted the plump full moon provocatively, and saw Li Yuhan tremble subconsciously. Lin Ran couldn't help but find it interesting. It turned out that this person was the one who was tough on others!

He said: "I will collect some interest first, and then I will execute you on the spot!"

"I'll execute you on the spot!" Li Yuhan pouted and resisted.

"Snapped!"

……

A carriage was parked under the shade of a tree outside Chunshui City, and a figure wearing a cloak and a hood was resting under the tree.

After a while, several dark shadows appeared on the side of the road. Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that they seemed to be from the same force, as the servant had a pink flower logo on his chest.

They chatted with each other until they came to the two ordinary carriages, stopped their horses, dismounted and came to the cloaked man under the shade of the tree. The sturdy man in the lead bowed and asked tentatively: "Excuse me...are you Mr. Lin Ran?"

The cloaked man heard the voice, took off his hood, revealing an exceptionally young face, and said with a smile: "I've been waiting for you for a long time, and you're finally here!"

The burly man leading the group couldn't help but laugh when he saw this face: "It's you, Mr. Lin. Every time I see your youthful appearance, I can't believe you're the same age as me!"

"Alas, I'm old. These are just some little tricks I use to deceive myself that I'm not old!" Lin Ran said modestly.

He continued, "How's the situation recently?"

When the sturdy man heard Lin Ran's words, the smile on his face faded, and he looked helpless. He said, "Mr. Lin, you should follow us into the city. When you get here, you will understand!"

"All right!"

Lin Ran nodded.

A group of people rode on horses, whipped the horses, and with a melodious roar, raised a cloud of dust, and headed towards Chunshui City...

……

53. The Story of Spring Water City

Now the territory of the Yun Dynasty belongs to the Li Dynasty. Lin Ran applied the previous system of conduct, and Li Yuhan sent people to formulate relevant policies. After some improvement, the Yun Dynasty was transformed into Yun Province.

Chunshui City was a medium-sized city under the former Yun Dynasty. The reason why it was named Chunshui was mainly because a nearby river was called Chunshui by the locals for generations, and naturally the name was applied to the city.

"Mr. Lin, this city has a special story. I wonder if the ghostly face flower has anything to do with this!" After entering Chunshui City, the leading burly man mentioned it to Lin Ran.

"Mueller, just say it!"

Lin Ran led the carriage and looked at the situation in Chunshui City. There were still a lot of people. The shouting on both sides of the street and the carriages and horses passing by the city gate all showed the vitality of this city.

It is a bit hard to imagine that the ghostly face flower, which can only be born in an extremely yin environment with many ghosts, would be in such a place.

"This story is quite special. Legend has it that there used to be many fox demons living here. These fox demons were so charming and seductive. Although they were demons, they actually lived in harmony with the local humans. Some of them even intermarried!"

Lin Ran was also happy to hear Muller say this. He was reminded of the story of the people and the fox demon in "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio".

Mueller continued, "This place is a peaceful paradise, but it is said that evil has descended from the sky, and the fox demons have bravely stood up to fight against it, but many fox demons have also exposed their identities.

The husbands who were originally in love with each other, because they saw the true identity of the fox demon, which was as strange as the evil, believed that the fox demon and the evil were in the same group. Those human husbands pushed their wives to the evil with their own hands. "

"Fox demons are actually very loyal in their relationships. After being hurt by their husbands, they lost their fighting power and were almost completely wiped out by the evildoers. It is said that the battlefield back then is where the Ghostly Resentful Face Flower is now - the Ghost Forest."

Lin Ran felt a little surprised when he heard this story. For some reason, he felt that this story was very true!

"Fanhua, what do you think?"

Lin Ran decided to find his "Yuan Fang" to ask.

"I'll lie down and watch!"

After Fanhua complained, she answered seriously: "This kind of legend is half true and half false. If you can find a relic of the Sky Fox Clan, maybe you can help your girlfriend improve her strength."

Lin Ran secretly affirmed in his heart that what Fanhua said made sense. If he could really get a treasure from the Sky Fox Clan, he could give it to the little maid as a gift.

Now the little maid's life has been changed beyond all recognition by him. She is no longer the unknown and transparent girl in the original novel.

In the original book, the little maid was not as powerful as she is now, and she was not the queen of the northwest region. Now the future of the little maid is becoming more and more confusing.

Muller led Lin Ran to the yard where they were stationed. As soon as he entered, he saw a group of men and women grilling skewers of meat around a campfire. The fragrant aroma of meat lingered in the air, mixed with the smell of burning charcoal.

"Hey, Muller, you're finally back. If you don't come back, I'll eat your share!" A bearded and slightly fat man stood up with a bulging belly. He just took a sip of wine and saw Lin Ran next to Muller. He hurriedly pulled up his baggy pants and shouted, "Greetings, Dean!"

When Mueller saw his good brother like this, he slapped his forehead and shouted helplessly: "Cato, look at you, you drunkard, this is the vice president!"

Lin Ran also made a joke at the right time: "Fortunately there is no dean here, otherwise I would have been beaten up by that woman in the Dragon Transformation Realm because of what you said!"

"Hahaha~"

Everyone couldn't help but laugh, and the sky was filled with hearty laughter.

Led by Mueller, Lin Ran entered the backyard and happened to meet a woman in the corridor.

"Hey, Captain Muller, this guy next to you is..."

After the woman called out "Muller" in a familiar manner, she felt a little unfamiliar with Lin Ran next to her.

"Hello, my name is Lin Ran!"

Lin Ran extended his hand and took the initiative to introduce himself. He also took a look at the woman. She was fair and pretty. She was not stunningly beautiful, but her temperament, coupled with the light blue dress, made people feel clean and comfortable.

"Lin Ran...is that Vice President Lin?"

The woman suddenly became excited, and hurriedly held Lin Ran's hand, shouting anxiously: "Vice President Lin, I know you are very familiar with Elder Wen, can you ask Elder Wen to give me an autograph!"

"what?"

Lin Ran couldn't help but be stunned. Does Sha Qianyi have so many fans?

Mueller on the side smiled and explained: "Xiaoying is also an alchemist, but her rank is not high, only level three. She likes Elder Wen's youthful deeds very much, so she really wants an autograph from Elder Wen."

"Why don't you have a guide?"

Lin Ran smiled and said, "I see that your soul power is not bad either. You should be able to meet the requirements of a third-level alchemist. I will arrange for you to audit the course. You should be able to gain more. As for the autograph, go get it from her after class and say my name!"

"Ahhh, I love you so much, Vice President Lin!"

Xiaoying was very excited after hearing this, and was even so excited that she rushed forward to save Lin Ran. If Mueller had not been quick to stop her, Xiaoying might have really rushed forward.

"Okay Xiaoying, take Mr. Lin to see the patients!"

After much persuasion from Muller, Xiaoying finally suppressed her excitement and turned around to lead the way.

While walking in the aisle, Mueller whispered to Lin Ran: "Mr. Lin, I apologize to you on behalf of Xiaoying. I offended you!"

Lin Ran shook his head and said, "No, she's quite a young and energetic girl. Who is the patient you want to see for me?"

"Sir, you will understand when you see it later!" Muller sighed.
