Chapter 204 Name Taboo
While Yao Wan and Ya Fei were heading to the Miter Auction House headquarters, Xiao Yan, who was in the small courtyard, after chatting with Xiao Zhan, also mentioned it inadvertently About Nalan Yanran.
"...Yan'er, actually."
Xiao Zhan sighed, then looked at his son with some complicated eyes, and said: "When I first arrived in the imperial capital today, , she happened to meet Nalan Yanran.”
“—She didn’t bump into her father on purpose?”
Of course Xiao Yan knew everything clearly, but for some reason, Xiao Yan couldn't help but ask such questions.
Xiao Zhan shook his head slightly and said: "I have thought about it too...but I feel that for a proud and arrogant person like her, I'm afraid there won't be any deliberate intentions. He wanted to get closer to his enemy's father... Even though the enemy's father was still maintaining a weak relationship between the two families three years ago."
Xiao Yan pondered for a moment and felt that his father's words were not enough. Makes no sense.
"All in all, the little girl from the Nalan family seems to have changed a lot. She is a completely different person compared to three years ago."
Xiao Zhan explained: " She first talked to me about some past events between the two families, and then apologized to me after sending me here... As a father, I was not very angry with her, let alone resented her. , but this is ultimately a conflict between the two of you, whether it is family or sect, these external identities cannot replace your essence.”
"Whether she needs to be forgiven in the end... Yan'er, it all depends on you, and I won't say more."
Xiao Zhan's attitude of completely trusting him naturally moved Xiao Yan extremely : "Father..."
He was just moved but it didn't last long. While he was moved, Xiao Yan gradually discovered something strange in his father's words.
Did Nalan Yanran bring her father to his residence?
No, Nalan Yanran only knows Yan Xiao. Logically speaking, she should not even know that he arrived in the imperial capital.
The more he thought about it, the more Xiao Yan felt that something was wrong - what on earth was going on? Has his whereabouts been exposed?
Or is he under Nalan Yanran’s surveillance from the beginning?
As for Ya Fei - Xiao Yan also feels that with her smooth way of dealing with people, she will definitely not bring someone who has clearly had a problem with her casually.
Either Nalan Yanran can know about him without Yafei and knows where he lives now, or there is something between Yafei and Nalan Yanran that he doesn't know about.
But no matter which one it was, Xiao Yan just felt that there were more and more puzzles and questions in front of him.
Putting aside everything else, Nalan Yanran must have the biggest problem - if that's the case, do you want to test it out?
At the same time that this thought came to his mind, Xiao Yan couldn't help but look up at the red cloud above his head, which was already dyed red by the afterglow of sunset. Night was approaching.
Forget it... isn't there another chance to detoxify Nalan Jie tomorrow? You can try to make good use of it.
After gradually forming a plan in his heart, Xiao Yan planned to go to Nalan's house tomorrow to detoxify Nalan Jie and then find Nalan Yanran to verify his guess.
If the first touch was just an illusion, and the second touch was just an accident, then what about the third and fourth accidents?
How can this be explained?
Perhaps this can only be learned from Nalan Yanran herself.
…………
The next day, Xiao Yan put on a mask and immediately walked into Nalan Mansion.
When the servants of Nalan Mansion saw that it was Mr. Yan Xiao who could cure diseases and detoxify the master, they naturally welcomed him respectfully.
In the past few days, he had also become familiar with the Nalan family. Even if some members of the Nalan family passed by, they would always say hello to Xiao Yan.
Not long after he entered the courtyard of Nalan's house, Xiao Yan saw a figure walking quickly towards him.
"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Yan Xiao - please come."
The person who came was none other than Nalan Yanran's father, Nalan Su. As he spoke, he stopped saying any polite words. Then he led Xiao Yan inside.
Under the mask, Xiao Yan's eyes were incomprehensible, and he suddenly said: "I wonder where Miss Nalan is?"
When Nalan Su heard this, he could no longer keep his pace. He looked back at Xiao Yan in astonishment, feeling confused.
Is it possible that Yan Xiao really has a crush on Yan Ran?
Nalan Su shook his head and said: "Yanran is not at home today, but at the banquet hosted by the old family master tomorrow, Yanran will be there... Mr. Yanxiao, as the benefactor of my Nalan family, this time Please support me at the banquet."
"Oh, it's nothing. I just saw Miss Nalan wasn't there by chance, so I was just curious, so please don't take it to heart."
Xiao Yan smiled, just treating it as a courtesy.
It's just hard to say whether Nalan Su really took Xiao Yan's words as a courtesy.
In Nalan Jie’s room, Nalan Jie was already waiting.
“Today we can almost completely eliminate the poison from your body.”
Before starting, Xiao Yan said, and then glanced at Nalan Su subconsciously, and Nalan Su also It was clear that Xiao Yan didn't like anyone disturbing him, so he took the initiative to close the door and wait outside.
"Haha, who did the little brother Yan Xiao study under? How can he have such superb fire control skills?"
When Xiao Yan was detoxifying Nalan Jie, the old man couldn't take any time off at all, so he couldn't help but say.
After all, as a patient whose body is directly exposed to Xiao Yan's strange fire, Nalan Jie can very clearly feel the strange fire swimming in his body, but it has never hurt his meridians. What kind of terrifying soul control ability is required to possess this fire control technique?
Nalan Jie was secretly frightened. Even though he had already made guesses and prepared mentally, he would only be shocked when he actually came into contact with it.
“The teacher is just an idler in the mountains, and I am just a mediocre person, not a genius.”
Xiao Yan subconsciously replied with a serious tone, but Nalan Jie couldn't help but shake his head after hearing Xiao Yan's words.
Isn’t he a genius?
If he is not a genius, there are not many geniuses in the world.
But being polite is a courtesy, Xiao Yan's movements were also very fast, and the last detoxification was over in less than one stick of incense.
"Okay, the branding poison on your body has been completely removed."
Xiao Yan withdrew his strange fire and said.
"That's true - hahahaha! Okay, thank you very much, little brother Yanxiao."
"It's just that everyone gets what they need, no need to be polite."
While the two were chatting, Nalan Jie clapped his hands, and then several maids came up, holding treasure boxes specially used to preserve rare medicinal materials, and appeared in front of Xiao Yan.
“This is the medicinal material that the Nalan family promised to little brother Yan Xiao.”
"Yes."
Xiao Yan was not polite either. Everyone wanted to get what they needed, so there was no need to be polite. With a wave of his hand, the boxes turned into streams of light and flew into Xiao Yan's chest. Within the precepts.
Xiao Yan chatted with them for a while, and Nalan Jie and Nalan Su just went out with Xiao Yan.
“Thank you, little brother Yanxiao, for helping my Nalan family this time. If you need anything in the future, just come to the Nalan family.”
“Master Nalan, you are so polite. Curing the head of the Nalan family so quickly is not entirely my fault.”
On the way to leave, Xiao Yan suddenly thought of something while chatting and couldn't help but say.
“Oh? Little brother Yan Xiao means...?”
“The nature of the poison in the main body of the Nalan family is not too serious. It is just integrated into the body of flesh and blood. Among them, there is also the fighting spirit of the Nalan family as a suppression. "
"And what is more important is actually another medicinal power that suppresses the poison for a long time -"
Xiao. Yan pondered for a moment and asked: "Out of curiosity, I can't help but want to say something more - I wonder where this medicinal property comes from?"
Xiao Yan's words undoubtedly surprised Nalan Su and Nalan Jie, so they couldn't help but look at each other.
"Oh... I'm telling you the truth."
Finally, it was Nalansu who said: "At this time, it has to be said that he was poisoned more than two years ago. Get up.”
“The poison is extremely fast. Even if I suppress it with the fighting spirit of my Dou Wang, it will only get worse day by day. In the end, I can only stay in bed all day long.”
Nalan Jie snorted displeasedly.
Nalan Su then continued: "To this end, the Nalan family recruited alchemists, and even the honorary elder of the Yunlan Sect, Alchemist Gu He, was invited. However, he did not expect that even Gu He was helpless with the poison. ”
“Until the end, it was a coincidence. We were lucky enough to invite A mysterious strong man who is famous in the northwest continent traveled here and took a look out of interest."
"As a result, the mysterious strong man also said that he needed to hire someone else, but she. The elixir used to suppress the poison was also left behind. It was thanks to this elixir that my father fell ill in the past two years. He is at peace with the poison, and is even no different from ordinary people."
Nalan Su sighed and said, "In this case, the mysterious strong man probably has the ability to heal his father. Ability, but I don’t know why, but I have never been willing to take action - a pill that just takes action How can the alchemist be helpless when the medicine can significantly suppress the poison?"
"Well, since they are willing to help us, it is a great kindness. In the past two years. I have never lied down in bed without thanking anyone so much.”
Nalan Jie shook his head.
The words of Nalan Su and Nalan Jie made Xiao Yan feel even more strange.
"...don't you know the name of that mysterious powerful man?"
"This..."
Nalan Su and Nalan Jie looked at each other, Then Nalan Jie said: "Little brother Yan Xiao, that strong person has a bit of a weird temperament. He also said that her name is not allowed to be spread. You are also kind to me, so I can't hide it from you. I just hope that you will be the only one." Just know it, don’t spread it, I hope my little brother will understand.”
Xiao Yan nodded: "That's natural, Yan Xiao is very tight-lipped."
"Well... that mysterious and powerful man is the Medicine Fairy who has become famous in the countries of the northwest continent in recent years."
"——What?"
