Chapter 109: The Beautiful Sword Demon, the Blood Cloud Tower Killer
Jiang Fan looked at the word "drought" in the letter and his mind started working quickly. If he wanted to break the rumor, the best way was to solve the root cause of the rumor, which was drought.
In this era, if you encounter a drought, there is almost no way to solve it, unless you are in a place with abundant water resources. You can also borrow water.
But the problem is that the water resources around the capital are not sufficient everywhere. Judging from the information mentioned in the letter, this drought has even affected several prefectures around the capital.
Borrowing water is extremely labor-intensive and resource-intensive, so this method should only be used as a last resort.
However, for Jiang Fan, he came from the 21st century and had a lot of technological skills at hand. A mere drought was really not a problem for him.
He asked several recorders to write back to the Emperor of Yan, telling him not to worry about the drought as there were ways to solve it and that everything could be dealt with after he returned to the capital.
Moreover, this incident is not a bad thing for him, maybe even a good thing. He wants to use this incident to completely establish his prestige among the people. Then, let's see how Ye Ren and Jiang Yi will use rumors to hurt him again.
When Emperor Yan received the news from Jiang Fan, he was stunned for a moment, then his heart was filled with joy. He thought that his son was extraordinary and could even solve this problem.
Although he was still somewhat uneasy, he believed that his son would not do this without a purpose, and he waited for his son's extraordinary performance in the face of this matter.
After Jiang Fan sent the letter to Emperor Yan, he saw that the matter in Huaining had been almost resolved and fifteen days had passed since the bet. He decided to go to Huai'an Prefecture.
In addition, he also sent Xia Qianxing and others to purchase farmland in Huaiyang, another county in Huainan Prefecture.
He even planned to let Xia Qianxing buy some of the land in Huaining and Huai'an. He would buy as much as he could. Anyway, he had plenty of money.
If we don’t work hard to develop during this period, when will we be able to do so? We should first pave the way and let time settle everything.
After arranging everything, Jiang Fan set off for Huai'an Prefecture. The disaster victims in Huai'an County were all invisible wealth, so he took this opportunity to ask Chu Yan'er for them. He was accompanied by a hundred white-robed guards.
Not long after he left Huaining County and reached the border with Huai'an County, a team of thirty people appeared in front of him, led by a woman in black.
Her face was covered by a black veil, so her appearance could not be seen clearly, but her exquisite figure showed a unique beauty.
However, beneath that beauty, there was a violent murderous intent, and those cold eyes showed no emotion at all.
She held a long sword in her hand, an ancient long sword that, even without being unsheathed, could make people feel a strong chill.
The moment they saw these people, the pupils of Chu Chengxiong and Chu Chengrui brothers shrank slightly, and a hundred white-robed guards immediately protected Jiang Fan in the middle.
The two brothers also felt a strong sense of crisis from the woman opposite them, which was a fear that came from the depths of their souls.
"Old Eight, this woman is not simple. Her strength has at least reached the level of a first-class master. Even if her internal energy has not reached the highest level, it is extraordinary. The sword intent formed around her is full of murderous intent. If I am not mistaken, this woman should be the second Sword Demon Blood Rose on the Jianghu Killer List!"
Chu Chengrui's voice was slightly deep, and his hand was already on his sword. Chu Chengxiong's long sword was already unsheathed, and his eyes were full of fighting spirit.
"I've heard of the name of Blood Rose a long time ago. It's great to be able to fight her today. However, Lao Ba, you should leave quickly when the opportunity arises. This woman is very powerful. Even if the two of us attack together, we may not be her opponent. Unless Yan'er comes, we can fight her."
At this time, Chu Chengrui took over and said:
"Moreover, those people beside her should be assassins from the Blood Cloud Tower. With them around, we can't protect you! I will let half of them take you to escape to Yan'er! As for the rest, we will hold them back!"
He looked more cautious than ever before, with deep fear and worry in his eyes.
Jiang Fan frowned and looked at the woman opposite him. It was the first time he heard of the term "internal energy". It should be the internal force he had heard of in his previous life.
Moreover, this was the first time he heard about the rating of masters, and there was even a term called first-class masters.
"By the way, what level of experts are you two?" Jiang Fan did not respond to Chu Chengrui's words, but asked back.
Chu Chengrui was stunned when he heard this. He couldn't help but feel angry and amused. What time has it come for this guy? He actually still has the mind to ask this?
However, he still said: "According to our rank, Old Seven and I should have just entered the ranks of first-rate masters, but our internal energy is still a few points behind that woman."
Chu Chengxiong heard this and said, "It's okay. Although that woman is a killer, she is said to be a good person and never kills innocent people. We are just holding her back, she won't kill us."
"The trouble is those assassins from the Blood Cloud Tower. They were able to hire thirty assassins this time. Those who want to kill you must have spent a lot of money, and they are very powerful."
Chu Chengrui said again.
At this time, Chu Chengrui frowned and continued:
"However, this person was able to ask the Sword Demon Blood Rose to take action. He must have some skills. You should know that the Sword Demon never attacks casually, and never kills indiscriminately. Those she kills are all extremely treacherous and evil."
"But you... shouldn't count, but since you don't count, the man who made the Sword Demon attack you must have used extraordinary means!"
Jiang Fan was a little angry and amused when he heard this. What did Lao Liu mean by this? Why did it sound so awkward?
However, he was not in the mood to argue with Chu Chengrui about this issue at the moment. He frowned and wondered who had asked the Sword Demon to kill him.
The people who sent assassins to kill him were none other than a few princes.
However, from what he knew, it was possible for the first, third, and fifth princes to ask the people of Blood Cloud Tower to help. But it was unlikely for them to ask the Sword Demon to help.
But apart from these three princes, who else could it be?
The other party ambushed him as soon as he left Huaining County. They must have been hiding in Huaining County for a long time.
"Alright, Lao Ba, this is no joke. The people from the Blood Cloud Tower are troublesome, and that woman is even more troublesome. You should take fifty people and prepare to leave. The rest will be left to us!"
Chu Chengxiong said to Jiang Fan anxiously.
He was just about to give an order, asking the hundred white-robed guards to send fifty people to escort Jiang Fan away.
However, Jiang Fan shook his head after hearing this and said, "Xiao Qi, have you forgotten the sharp weapons in our hands? No matter how powerful they are, can they be more powerful than what we have in our hands?"
As soon as he said this, Chu Chengxiong and Chu Chengrui were stunned, and a strange look suddenly appeared on their faces.
The two looked at Jiang Fan, and the nervous expressions on their faces suddenly disappeared, replaced by a playful look.
After seeing the situation on the opposite side, the two brothers were so nervous that they forgot about the bamboo mines in their hands.
However, they could not be blamed. They were used to head-on fighting, and the bamboo thunder was only used once that night, and they had hardly used it recently. They had long forgotten that the white-robed guards had such a powerful killing weapon.
The brothers began to feel some sympathy for the Blood Cloud Tower killer and Blood Rose on the opposite side!
