Chapter 132 Li Lan—Mysterious Ident.i.ty
“Ah, your secretive roommate said it, didn’t he…” Xiao Chengxuan, a little virgin with no love experience, obviously did not have a clear understanding of the situation.
However, Li Canyang clearly saw something from his cousin’s rare gesture as a shy girl, and suddenly realized: “Oh, it turns out that we shouldn’t have been here. Hey hey, we’re leaving, you continue, hey hey, continue…”
As he said this, he took Xiao Chengxuan with a bewildered look to turn their heads away and left.
“Ah, why are you leaving? We are here to thank Brother Ding for saving our life. Ah… what happened?” Xiao Chengxuan was dragged away in a daze and shouted: “Brother Ding, I’ll come back later. Let’s have a good drink. I want to thank you…”
Finally, Li Canyang was dragged away.
“Brother Ding, you… don’t you listen to that guy’s nonsense…” Li Yinuo only felt her face burning. Once the girl’s mind was revealed, she really didn’t know what to say.
Ding Hao smiled, “Yinuo, thank you for your concern.”
Suddenly Li Yinuo’s heart skipped a beat and she lowered her head further. This was the first time she heard Ding Hao call her in such a way; her mind was completely blank.
They walked out of the tree-lined path side by side in this way. Unconsciously, they went near the dining room in the Eastern Academy of green s.h.i.+rts. Saying a few words and waving Ding Hao goodbye, she left reluctantly.
Staying where he was, Ding Hao sighed when he watched that the figure of Little Pepper disappeared at the distant corner of the bluestone steps.
Rus.h.i.+ng back to the residence, Ding Hao found out that the healing medicine that Li Lan had given him to help Zhang Fan and Fang Tianyi healed their wounds. Then he asked w.a.n.g Xiaoqi to spend a lot of money on finding the best doctor in the business district and always took care of them.
Ding Hao simply handed out the “Dragon Heart Seedling ” that he picked from the bottom of the waste cliff at the back of the mountain to continuously stimulate the recovery of the two people’s bodies with the potency of the spiritual medicine.
“Don’t worry, little brother, although the two men were seriously wounded, they were treated in time and were moistened with spiritual herbs. The bottle of healing medicine you handed out is absolutely extraordinary. I (My old and useless self) think that it would take four or five days at most before they could leave their sickbeds without leaving any sequelae.”
The doctor’s words dispelled Ding Hao’s worries and finally made him breathe a sigh of relief.
…
All of a sudden, a busy day had pa.s.sed.
After dinner, he cleared some doubts about practicing martial arts presented by disciples of the Eastern Academy of the green s.h.i.+rts in the dining room. Ding Hao was preparing to return to his room and practice Kungfu carefully.
But unexpectedly on the way back he encountered Li Lan in a green s.h.i.+rt, and with beautifully arched eyebrows: another master of the Eastern Academy of green s.h.i.+rts.
With the friends.h.i.+p of giving medicine in the martial arts compet.i.tion by the five academies, in Ding Hao’s heart he actually regarded this teenager as his friend. The teenager had two completely different temperaments of weakness and delicacy and overbearing and gloominess.
“Are you back?” Li Lan stood quietly in the moonlight, with her calm tone as usual.
“Well, I barely escaped death,” Ding Hao said with a wry smile.
In the face of Li Lan, Ding Hao had a strange and extremely relaxed feeling. Just like staying with a close friend for many years. Very sensitive intuition made Ding Hao feel Li Lan’s hidden deep kindness.
“After killing Mu Tianyang’s brother, you survived his onslaught. You escaped death.” Ding Hao didn’t know whether Li Lan was laughing at him or not.
Ding Hao stretched himself, approached a few steps and smiled, “It seems that you are very well informed. You know all about such things.”
Li Lan said with an expressionless face, “I know not only this, but also the battle that you and Mu Tianyang made an appointment to carry out. One year later, you will fight to the death in the Frozen Peak.”
Ding Hao looked at Li Lan surprisedly and finally showed an astonished expression, “Do you know all the news? It’s inconceivable. I thought that only Mu Tianyang and I knew about it. ”
“Do you think this matter is unimportant?” Li Lan shook his head and sneered to continue, “Now the whole top management in the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect has known about this matter. It is said that the Tranquility Academy, for its part, also attaches great importance to this matter. I believe that before long, the whole Snow Province will know about the compet.i.tion between you and Mu Tianyang!”
Ding Hao was surprised: “How can I get such attention?”
Li Lan shook his head helplessly: “Wake up, it is Mu Tianyang, the known ‘prodigy’ who has attracted people’s attention. Everyone knows that Mu Tianyang once defeated the “Four Great Swordsmen of the Snow Province” with one sword in the Frozen Peak. Among them was Brother Guan Feidu from our sect. From other people’s point of view, you are representing the whole Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect to challenge him. The compet.i.tion has been raised to represent the contest between the Tranquility Academy and the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect!”
“Really?” Ding Hao became dignified and said with a wry smile, “I am just a little registered disciple.”
“You are also the champion in the compet.i.tion among registered disciples of the five academies. Do you think this t.i.tle is really worthless?” Li Lan, with a look that she wished that she could beat Ding Hao up, said, “Anyway, this matter has already caused waves in the top management of the Snow Province. I believe it will soon arouse more peoples’ attention.”
Ding Hao smiled and asked in reply, “If they pay attention to me, they pay attention to me. Sooner or later there will be a battle anyway. Well, does anyone think I can win?”
Li Lan shook his head very formally: “No one is optimistic about you, including me.”
“Oh, you are quite frank,” said Ding Hao discontentedly. “Can’t you have some confidence in me?”
Li Lan hated that Ding Hao didn’t live up to her expectations. She said, “Who do you think Mu Tianyang is? You… Alas, forget it, after all this I talk with you which is also of no use. Anyway, you have been burned on the fire and you have no way out. ” When saying this, she threw over a pamphlet and added: “Although I am afraid that the record in the pamphlet will undermine your confidence; I still think I should show you the record. Before that battle took place, at least I should let you know what kind of opponent you are facing.”
Ding Hao reached out and caught the brochure.
This was a detailed record of Mu Tianyang, a “prodigy”. It gave a detailed presentation about all kinds of brilliant deeds and the amazing development of the first genius out of the younger generation in the Snow Province.
“Thanks.” Ding Hao produced a cupped-hand salute to Li Lan.
“I hope you are not frightened by what is recorded in the brochure. After one year… although I am not optimistic about you, I still expect that you can create a miracle.” Li Lan looked at Ding Hao, looked at him quietly for a moment, then added: “By the way, a reminder that the senior officials of the Zongmen will summon you tomorrow. Prepare well.”
Finis.h.i.+ng what he said, he turned around and left.
“Did the top summon me?” Ding Hao was shocked and asked after Li Lan: “Because of what?”
“Then you would know it. I have revealed too much today.” Li Lan’s voice was floating in the air, but she had already disappeared in the distant dark completely.
