Chapter 43: Curiosity is the beginning of fall

Chapter 43 Curiosity is the beginning of fallAfter looking around on the rope bridge for a long time, Zhang Chulan finally reached the other side of the cliff.

As soon as he came down from the rope bridge, his legs felt weak.

"It's so damn scary..."

Jiang Lan narrowed his eyes and looked him up and down.

"It's too obvious."

Zhang Chulan smiled bitterly, "I'm not pretending, I'm really unsure, if I fall down, won't I die?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Lan just raised his eyebrows and said nothing more.

Xu Si put his hands on Zhang Chulan's shoulders and said, "Your next opponent might be here. Are you nervous?"

"It would be a lie to say I'm not nervous, but I'm not that nervous. After all, you've already said it..."

"Let's go over there and talk?"

Hearing Wang Ye's voice, Jiang Lan looked back and then nodded.

After making a gesture to Xu Si and the others, Jiang Lan and Wang Ye walked towards the depths of the mountain.

On the mountain road, Wang Ye suddenly spoke:

"You came to this Luotian Grand Ceremony, so you shouldn't just come to help your father to save face, right?"

Jiang Lan was stunned, then responded:

"It was at the beginning, but it's not the case anymore since the incident with Zhang Chulan."

At first, Jiang Lan just listened to his father and planned to go to Longhu Mountain for the formality.

But on the way here, Xu Si suddenly mentioned to him that he wanted Zhang Chulan to compete for the first place in this Luotian Grand Ceremony.

And the price... is naturally to find a job for Jiang Lan.

If it were anything else, Jiang Lan might not be very interested, but when it came to doing dirty work, Jiang Lan became excited and agreed immediately without even thinking about it.

"Why, do you want to help him get the position of the Heavenly Master's successor?"

"I will help him clear the obstacles. As for whether he can become a master in the end, I am not interested."

Wang Ye smiled and said, "I see. You are here to be his babysitter, right?"

"That's not wrong." Jiang Lan said as a matter of course.

"It's not easy to have you as a nanny. Although we meet again after a long time, I can still see that you are still as arrogant as ever." Wang Ye sighed.

"It's just an equal exchange." Jiang Lan said, "You know my situation. I don't know when I will get sick again. I will help Zhang Chulan, and Xu San and Xu Si will help me find someone."

"Looking for someone?" Wang Ye was puzzled. "Looking for whom?"

Jiang Lan's lips suddenly curled up into a smile.

"Damn people."

When he said this, somehow, the black inner elixir that had been silent in Jiang Lan's dantian seemed to have an imperceptible slight vibration.

Wang also shuddered, "How many people have you killed since you came out of the bunker? The murderous aura on your body is about to overflow."

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded behind Jiang Lan.

"Jiang Lan?"

Jiang Lan looked back and saw a young and lovely girl with a bright smile on her face.

"Come on."

Jiang Lan felt a headache and turned around to call Wang and wanted to leave.

Wang was a little confused and was about to speak when the girl came to Jiang Lan.

The girl smiled and said, "We haven't seen each other for just a few days, and you don't recognize me?"

"know……"

The person who came was none other than Lu Linglong, who had met Jiang Lan several times in Baiyun Temple.

"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

After saying that, Jiang Lan pulled Wang Ye along with him, and in just a few steps they disappeared from Lu Linglong's sight.

Lu Linglong stamped her feet, looking angrily.

A tall woman in purple and black-framed glasses walked up to Lu Linglong, looked in the direction where Jiang Lan disappeared, put her arm around her shoulders and said:

"Why, is our Miss Lu feeling amorous?" "No."

Lu Linglong slapped the purple-clothed woman's arm away.

"You're still saying no, but why didn't I see you look like this when other men ignored you?"

"Zhi Jinhua, stop talking nonsense!" Lu Linglong stared, "I'm just a little curious about him."

"Oh?" Zhi Jinhua pushed her glasses lightly. "There aren't many people that can make our Linglong curious. Tell me, what is his origin?"

Lu Linglong spread her hands.

"He said he was from the Jiang family. My grandfather even told me to get in touch with him more, but he seemed a little afraid of me."

"Your great-grandfather? He asked you to have more contact with him?" Zhi Jinhua couldn't believe it. "Is Mr. Lu going to sell you out?"

"What are you thinking about?" Lu Linglong rolled her eyes. "It's just making friends. My grandfather would never do that."

Zhi Jinhua patted her chest.

"I can rest assured that."

After a pause, she continued:

"But you have to be careful. They say curiosity is the beginning of a woman's fall."

"Get out of here..."

……

……

Back mountain, in the square.

A wooden box was placed on a platform in the middle of the square, and the strangers lined up in an orderly manner and came forward one by one to draw lots.

Next to the wooden box, a young Taoist priest said loudly:

"Please come forward one by one and draw a note. The heavenly stems on the note represent the order of entry. There are four of each type of animal below. Those who draw the same animal will participate in the same competition. One of the four will be selected as the final winner and advance to the next round!"

After the young Taoist priest finished speaking, the person leading the team drew out a note, followed by others.

Inside the team, Zhang Chulan took a breath of cold air.

"The first match is a melee, huh?"

"You don't have to be too nervous. Most of the aliens are here just to make up the numbers for this Luotian Grand Ceremony. As long as you are not too unlucky, you will most likely not encounter any difficult opponents."

Behind Zhang Chulan, a handsome young man in a black and green sports jacket and with white hair spoke with a smile.

This handsome boy is Feng Zhenghao’s fourth son and Feng Shayan’s younger brother, Feng Xingtong.

"That's what I say, but my luck..." Zhang Chulan was a little unconfident.

He felt that his luck had been extremely bad recently and he might meet a tough opponent in the first game.

"and me."

Hearing the voice, Zhang Chulan immediately became alert as if he had taken a tranquilizer.

Jiang Lan has spoken, so it doesn't matter how tough the opponent is. At worst, Jiang Lan can take action before the game and knock the opponent out, right?

As they were talking, it was finally Zhang Chulan's turn to draw the lot.

After rummaging in the wooden box for a while, Zhang Chulan took out a note and held it in his hand, then left the team.

After everyone had drawn their lots, the handsome young man in the black and green sports jacket asked:

"Brother Jiang Lan, which group did you draw?"

Jiang Lan glanced at the note in his hand and said, "A, Moshe."

"It's the first match... Anyone who's fighting against you, Brother Jiang Lan, is probably going to be in trouble."

Jiang Lan shook his head.

"will not."

Now the ferocious beast in Jiang Lan's body has hidden in his dantian, so his emotions are unusually stable.

It was just a competition, so he could still control the strength of his attacks.

"Zhang Chulan, what about you?"

Hearing Feng Xingtong's question, Zhang Chulan also opened the note in his hand and took a look, then said:

"B, White Tiger."
