"Oh? Then I want to see which girl is so fanatical about the Temple of God."

Qin Lan said something unhurriedly, with an attitude of insisting on seeing it.

Zu Jinchao faked a smile twice, wondering:

"I'm afraid this is inappropriate. If the messenger knew that I showed the girl to others first, he would think she was impure. I can't bear the blame then."

Qin Lan said calmly:

"It's no big deal. When the envoy comes in three days, I will naturally tell him that it has nothing to do with you."

With that said, Qin Lan put down the bowls and chopsticks and walked towards Zhainan.

Seeing this, everyone did not dare to drink and have fun. You looked at me, I looked at you, and finally they all turned their attention to Zu Jinchao

"You continue to stay here, I will follow you, no one should follow you."

Zu Jinchao's expression suddenly changed, he gave an order, then walked quickly in front of Qin Lan and said:

"I'm here to lead the way for Brother Qin."

The two of them, one after the other, soon arrived at a house in the south of the village.

Opening the door, Qin Lan's pupils trembled when she saw clearly the sleeping girl on the bed.

Ye Xiaoxiao!

How could she appear here!

Qin Lan stared, and her breathing became a little heavier without realizing it.

Could it be that Brother Qin has fallen in love with this girl?

Zu Jinchao's heart trembled. This girl was indeed stunning in the world. When he first saw him, his heart couldn't help but beat wildly. But thinking of the divine messenger he was about to face, Zu Jinchao forced himself to calm down.

"I want this girl"

Qin Lan stabilized her mind and said

Zu Jinchao's heart suddenly had ten thousand cao mud horses galloping past.

Whatever you are afraid of will come to you!

Taking a deep breath, Zu Jinchao thought of a solution that would meet both needs and said:

"Brother Qin, this girl is going to be dedicated to the divine envoy. If the divine envoy comes in three days, I won't be able to explain it. Don't make it difficult for me, little brother. You and the divine envoy will meet in three days to decide where this girl will go.

I won’t interrupt anymore on this matter.”

Qin Lan's dark eyes stared at Zu Jinchao, so deep that one could not see the end.

Qin Lan is so scheming, how could he not see that Zu Jinchao was borrowing a knife to kill people?

But Qin Lan didn't say much at this time, and just said coldly:

"You've really changed a lot over the years."

Zu Jinchao felt panicked for no reason and lowered his head, not daring to look into Qin Lan's eyes.

"Keep the door guarded and don't allow others to come near. I'll take her out of here in three days."

Qin Lan said her next sentence and left.

After Zu Jinchao experienced this, he felt irritable and had no intention of returning to the dinner party. He went straight back to his room to rest.

A night of silence

At noon the next day, Qin Lan and Zu Jinchao had lunch when they suddenly heard a commotion outside, and someone came running to report:

"Master, the master appeared a hundred miles away from the village and will be back soon!"

Zu Jinchao suddenly stood up when he heard the sound "Teng", his eyes flickering in and out, filled with surprise and uncertainty.

This year, he privately decided to tie Qingfeng Village and Hengshen Temple together. The boss never knew that the divine envoy was coming tomorrow. I can't let him ruin my good deeds at this critical moment!

Qin Lan asked calmly: "Who is this big boss who makes you so nervous?"

Zu Jinchao was stunned when he heard this, and for a moment he thought about it. When he looked at Qin Lan again, he seemed to see a treasure.

It just so happens that Qin Lan is also looking for trouble with me. Why not take this opportunity to kill two birds with one stone?

After thinking about this, Zu Jinchao slowly sat down and worked up a good mood.

He said sadly:

"Brother Qin, you have to stand up for me this time."

Zu Jinchao's face showed a look of grief for a moment, and he reached out to grab Qin Lan's sleeves. Qin Lan calmly retracted his arm and frowned:

"If something goes wrong, just tell me"

Zu Jinchao retracted his hand, covered his chest, and said slowly:

"Brother Qin, you don't know something. Since I met you, I have practiced day and night, and finally reached the point where I can protect myself, so I left Ganzhou City and came to the suburbs to establish Qingfeng Village."

"I was originally doing a good job of robbing the rich and giving to the poor. But a year and a half ago, a swordsman came here and wanted to have a bet with me. The winner took the top spot in Qingfeng Village, but I lost.

"

Qin Lan nodded, he had heard all this from Mouse Yan's mouth, and motioned Zu Jinchao with his eyes to continue talking.

"I never thought that the swordsman's true identity was actually the leader of the bodyguard escorting the imperial court's disaster relief funds. He embezzled the disaster relief funds. In order to avoid the imperial court's accountability, he took our Qingfeng Village to the Hengshen Temple. A year ago, he said that he would

Go travel, leave, and leave all the handover work between Qingfeng Village and Hengshen Temple to me."

Zu Jinchao continued with great grievance:

"Brother Qin, I know you definitely don't have a good opinion of me in your heart, but I can't help it. I don't want to collect people's wealth, but if I don't do that, then the swordsman and the envoy of the Hengshen Temple will be the first to fail.

Will you let me go!"

Zu Jinchao's words were out of emotion and touching, making it difficult for Qin Lan to tell the truth from the lie.

So Qin Lan asked: "How do you want me to make the decision for you?"

When Zu Jinchao heard that there was something going on, his face suddenly lit up and he hurriedly said:

"That swordsman will be back soon. Brother Jie Shi Qin, if you and I work together, we will definitely be able to defeat this man."

"It was also a credit to hand him over to the imperial court later."

Qin Lan remained silent, mentally judging whether the facts in Zu Jinchao's mouth were credible.

As early as on the way here, he had seen the misery of the people's livelihood in Ganzhou. Even though his ancestors had many difficulties, it was still a fact that they would harm the people.

As for the mysterious swordsman, it is rumored that he embezzled the court's money. I guess he is not a good person. He can be dealt with easily this time.

No matter who comes from the Hengshen Temple, just kill them. Are there not many people from the Five Temples who have died at the hands of Qin Lan these days?

With some calculation in mind, Qin Lan agreed:

"Okay, I will take action to capture the swordsman as soon as I see him."

Zu Jinchao's joy was beyond words and he thanked her repeatedly. Seeing Zu Jinchao's hypocritical appearance, Qin Lan shook her head secretly in her heart.

I was really too young to sign a contract with such a duplicitous person.

But it's too late to regret now

Qin Lan is not worried at all that Zu Jinchao will do something detrimental to him. The reason why Zu Jinchao is plotting against Qin Lan like this is because he has forgotten the most important thing when he signed the contract with Qin Lan, which is——

As long as the contents of the underworld contract are violated, Qin Lan can easily deprive Zu Jinchao of his life no matter when or where he is!

Outside Qingfeng Village,

The sky is filled with yellow sand, blocking out the sun. The view beyond ten meters is limited, and no one can be seen.

The muscles all over the man's body are slightly bulging, his exposed arms are a simple bronze color, and there is a long knife on his waist.

His face was tightly wrapped in coarse cloth, revealing only a pair of narrow eyes, occasionally flashing a heart-stopping cold light.

But if you look at it from a distance, what you see is a humanoid creature wrapped in cloth walking slowly on the sand.

This looks a little funny

but no way

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

There was sand in the air, so the man could only cover his face tightly to prevent sand from blowing all over his nose and mouth.

"I haven't been back for more than a year. These must save Ganzhou."

The man's eyes flashed with enthusiasm and he murmured to himself

Suddenly, bursts of whistling sounds came from the nearby air, and then, a black iron rod rushed towards the man's head and struck it hard.

The man's heart was shocked, he picked up the scabbard and blocked it, and at the same time kicked out

boom

With a muffled sound, two figures separated in the yellow sand, each leaving deep footprints on the ground.
