Chapter 299
The one who finally came forward to explain was Song Nuan.
It was a good proposal, but for various reasons it ended up being messed up, and no one in the room felt good about it, but I’m afraid it was Liu Chen who felt the worst.
“Come on, it’s not your fault. Besides, we’re just being brave, we can’t pretend we didn’t see it and let this guy wreak havoc on people here, right?”
Wang Yifeng persuaded again.
Lin Ran was sitting on the fence by the river, with mixed feelings in his heart.
“What the F**k are you looking at, stand still!”
Wang Yifei shouted angrily, while glaring at the two people in the distance, Nan Ge and Qin Shou, who at that moment were strangely standing by the river, facing towards the Qing River and not daring to move.
“Big …. Big brother did not move, we did not move!”
Nan Ge hurriedly explained, and Qin Shou even nodded with an aggrieved face, his uncle did not care, he had no choice but to accept Lin Ran’s “conditioning” here.
However, Lin Ran was not interested in dealing with them at all, so Wang Yifeng left them standing here, staring at the Qing River.
“It’s all right now, Xu Lan has already agreed to Liu Chen’s proposal!”
A moment later, Song Nuan walked over from one side and patted Lin Ran’s shoulder, comforting him.
Lin Ran nodded, but did not say anything.
The events of today had left him at a loss in his mind, and he remembered a saying from his childhood, that the greater the ability the greater the responsibility on him.
However, there were times when the powerful abilities one possessed would often hurt some of the people around them, just like in this case.
“Ranzi, Song Nuan has said that it’s fine, so don’t blame yourself!”
Wang Yifeng persuaded beside him again.
Lin Ran, however, never said anything, what he was heartbroken about was not the mess up this time, what he was heartbroken about was the loss in Liu Chen’s heart.
“Ranzi, it’s really alright!”
Suddenly, Liu Chen’s voice rang out, followed by him walking over with Xu Lan and Zhang Xu.
Lin Ran lifted his head to look, only to see that all three came to the can with smiles on their faces, but Liu Chen’s smile had a clear trace of bitterness in it.
“Old Six, Xu Lan has already agreed to the boss’s proposal, so you shouldn’t blame yourself!”
Zhang Xu said beside him again.
“Yes Ranzi, just don’t blame yourself, I heard Liu Chen say this, you did the right thing, if I were here, I’d rather not have this surprise, I’d also support you guys doing this!”
Said here, Xu Lan couldn’t help but laugh.
“Moreover, the planning company has just said that the proposal can be carried out as usual, although it is a surprise that is already known, but as long as Liu Chen has this heart, I am already content!”
Hearing Xu Lan’s words, Liu Chen also couldn’t help but reveal his relief, it was rare and valuable that his own woman could understand him.
“Well, let’s hurry up and get ready, the proposal ceremony still has to take place!”
Song Nuan laughed, following which she pulled Lin Ran up and prepared to go on with the proposal.
Lin Ran saw that everyone had said this, so if he went on like this, he would really be a bit pretentious, so he simply stood up straight away too.
Before he set off, however, he did say.
“You guys go over first, Wang Yifeng and I will take care of the two of them and go over right away!”
“Good!”
Song Nuan and the others smiled and nodded, following which they went ahead and got busy.
“What are you going to do with the two of them?”
Wang Yifeng came over and asked, he had been waiting impatiently for a long time, as long as Lin Ran gave the order at this moment, even if he had to throw these two into the river, he wouldn’t have the slightest hesitation.
“The two of them messed up the boss’s marriage proposal ceremony, they can’t be let off easily!”
Lin Ran mused, then said with a twinkle in his eye.
“Let the two of them stand right here and shout their proposal at the sea!”
“Good idea!”
Hearing Lin Ran’s words, Wang Yifeng instantly followed suit and hurriedly took out took out two compulsions from his pocket.
This kind of thing was something he had gotten from the wife-bearer and could control a person’s body for a short period of time.
“This thing can last a full three hours, let them stand guard here for three hours later!”
Wang Yifeng said and ran over, while then placing the compulsion on the two men.
Soon the voices of the two men came from over there and they shouted in a loud voice.
“Xu Lan Liu Chen loves you, please marry him!”
“Xu Lan Liu Chen loves you, please marry him!”
“……”
“How about that, is that slogan loud enough.”
A few moments later, Wang Yifeng trotted back and said with a smile.
Lin Ran was helpless for a moment, but shook his head with the same smile, and then the two of them rushed back to the rehearsal together.
The rehearsal went smoothly and the whole proposal ceremony came to a perfect end amidst a lot of joy, as to when the wedding would be agreed upon after both parents met.
Xu Lan has not yet graduated, so it will be at least a year.
Xu Lan and the others did not know that Qin Shou and Nan Ge had been shouting at the river for three hours.
They only found out about it when they were watching TV after checking into the hotel that night.
“According to the latest reports, yesterday at Qinghewan Square, there was a vicious incident in which several men ate in the square and clashed with other tourists in public!”
“One of them caused a tourist to have a heart attack and was admitted to hospital!”
“Later on, for some reason, two disruptive men were standing by the river for three hours shouting the words “Xu Lan Liu Chen loves you, please marry him!”
“According to this we interviewed the eyewitnesses involved and it is said that these two men disrupted an otherwise elaborate proposal ceremony and finally did so in order to repent!”
“Here, we would also like to send our sincerest wishes to the couple who saw justice done!”
“I didn’t expect you to know how to be romantic!”
In front of the TV, Xu Lan was lying in Liu Chen’s arms, full of happiness, although there was no surprise in the proposal, but the latter had this heart, he was content.
“Hey hey you look quickly, that’s her yesterday is her sudden heart attack!”
Liu Chen suddenly pointed at the TV and said.
Xu Lan looked, only to see an older woman on the TV saying words of thanks with a grateful face, while next to him stood a professor-like old man in a white coat who seemed to be some kind of expert scholar in the hospital.
“Professor, what can you tell us about this patient’s condition yesterday?”
The reporter asked.
“Yes!”
The professor looked very excited and tightened his hand and said.
“She was not in a good condition when she was brought in yesterday. We asked the patient’s family and found out that the patient has a congenital heart condition and it is very serious!”
“But when the patient was brought here yesterday, she was laced with silver needles, which is the art of acupuncture among our national Chinese medicine, and later several experts proficient in Chinese medicine and I have studied it over and over again and found out something very significant! ”
“And what is that matter?”
The reporter asked with a smile.
The professor said with an excited look on his face.
“This one who administered the needles to the patient must be a highly skilled person with very high attainments in the ways of Chinese medicine, and the formation he landed on the patient yesterday is known in Chinese medicine as the Taiyihua Needle, which is a very ancient and lost needle technique!”
“And now someone can actually perform it, this is definitely a treasure-level discovery for our Chinese medicine community!”
“…….”
In front of the television, Wang Yifei couldn’t help but laugh as he watched, and turned to Lin Ran and said.
“And Taiyi Needle Technique, is it that mysterious? They just said that you should hurry up and contact them, they want to return the silver needles to you personally!”
Lin Ran smiled at his words and said.
“No need, this set of silver needles originally belonged to Temperance Hospital, I’ll ask Dean Yang to take over!”
Chapter 300
After all, Qinghewan is also a tourist town, and since they had already come here, they could not just go back hastily.
In the evening, after everyone went back to their rooms to rest, Lin Ran left the hotel alone and went to Qinghewan Square once again.
During the daytime, there were many people and inconveniences, while at night it was much colder, with only a few people walking along the river.
“Hold the tortoise armour and go to Qinghewan Square to find him!”
Lin Ran kept recalling these words in his mind, he was sure that this was what Jiang Sansi had said to himself the other day.
“Qinghewan Square is so big, where do I go to find him?”
As he walked on Qinghewan Square, Lin Ran kept muttering in his mind.
He had never met that Feng Shui master at all, and he had no way of knowing whether the other party was fat, thin, male or what kind of appearance he had.
He could only deduce from his age that the other party should already be in his fifties or sixties, after all, it had been twenty years since the incident back then.
“It should be an old man!”
Lin Ran thought in his mind, while continuously skulking around Qinghewan Square.
But after an hour of wandering around, he hadn’t found any old man in particular, and he had even seen one old man this hour, still drunk and sleeping on the river.
“Where to find this!”
Lin Ran was so helpless that he sat down on his butt in front of the statue and looked at the tortoise bone in his hand and launched into a daze.
The turtle bone was only the size of a palm, and its entire body was already black, but it was being held by Lin Ran every day for the past few days, so it was somewhat about to dish out a bright light.
And on the black turtle nail, there was a stripe, the very same stripe that naturally formed between the seams of the turtle nail.
“Hmm? Why does this stripe look a little familiar?”
Lin Ran’s heart suddenly moved, as if he had seen the lines on the tortoise nail somewhere before, but for a while he couldn’t remember.
“Let’s get up and turn around!”
Lin Ran’s heart moved and he hurriedly stood up, when he came across such things that he suddenly couldn’t remember, the best way was to divert his attention away from them and wait for himself to calm down before continuing to think about them.
So Lin Ran went to the statue and looked at the words inscribed on the statue of Laozi riding a bull.
There was nothing substantial in the opening text, just some description of the unit department that built it, and why it was built, and so on.
Lin Ran simply ignored it and skipped to the bottom to start reading from the official content.
“Laozi’s surname is Li Er, his name is Dan, and his name is Boyang, his name is Laozi, a native of Lixiang Qurenli in the Bitter County of the State of Chu (nowadays east of Henan title Yi), a famous thinker of the late Spring and Autumn Period ….”
The connection between Laozi and Qinghewan goes back to his time before he came out of the Hakka Pa*s in the west.
It is said that when Laozi was travelling west out of the Hangu Pa*s, he once visited Qinghewan, which was not yet called by that name and was only a very small village.
At that time, Laozi saw that the Qinghe River was winding and twisting, but the water was unusually calm, like a jade belt around a small village, which was a feng shui treasure, so he mentioned the name Qinghewan.
The name has since stuck and is still called Qinghewan today, and with the rise of the tourism boom, Qinghewan has gradually become a calling card for the area.
And to commemorate this nomination of Laozi, there is the statue of Laozi riding a bull here …..
“So that’s how it is, I didn’t expect Qinghewan to have quite a history!”
Lin Ran exclaimed, while getting up and preparing to go look for it again.
However just as he raised his head, suddenly a curved tentacle above his head appeared in front of his eyes, none other than the bull’s horn of Laozi Qingniu.
The moment he saw the horn, Lin Ran’s whole body felt as if he had been struck by electricity, and he suddenly remembered that the pattern on top of the tortoise armour was not exactly the same as the pattern on the horn of the green bull.
“There must be a connection between the two!”
Remembering what Jiang Sansi had said to him, combined with the connection between the bull’s horn and the tortoise nail’s patterns at this moment, Lin Ran immediately felt that he had found a breakthrough.
He hurriedly looked towards the bull’s horn, starting from the horn and looking down little by little, and indeed, at the place of the bull’s neck, he found the end.
The lines on the horns of the bull became more and more shallow the further down the bull’s body they started from the horns, until finally they disappeared completely.
In the neck area, however, the lines are still very clear, and this is where the problem lies.
The original clear lines were suddenly missing in one of the parts, and its size was similar to that of the tortoise bone in Lin Ran’s hand.
Lin Ran placed the tortoise bone on it, and the lines on it actually corresponded to each other.
“Hm?”
Suddenly, the moment the lines on the turtle bone and the lines on the bull got along and corresponded, Lin Ran clearly saw that the lines all over the green bull’s body lit up along with it.
But only for a moment, the bright light dimmed in the blink of an eye, and the entire statue once again returned to its normal state, as if nothing had changed before.
“Young man, why don’t you go back to bed at this late hour?”
Suddenly a somewhat mellow voice came over, startling Lin Ran, who hurriedly turned his head to look, but when he saw the person who spoke, the expectation in his heart was immediately dashed.
“Grandpa, why are you out sweeping the floor so late!”
He looked almost sixty years old, but his whole energy was not bad.
“If you don’t sweep at night, when do you sweep?”
The old man asked rhetorically, but with a cheerful smile at the corners of his mouth.
“Since this place has become a scenic spot, I can only sweep at night, otherwise there are so many tourists during the day, it’s not convenient to sweep!”
The old man explained with a smile.
“That’s true.”
Lin Ran nodded his head and then laughed.
“Boss I’ll sweep it for you, I have nothing to do anyway!”
With that Lin Ran went to take the broom from the old man’s hand, however the latter flicked it up and directly dodged Lin Ran, laughing.
“That won’t do, the leader will have to deduct your salary if he sees you!”
“Er …..”
Lin Ran was speechless, but in his heart, he was a bit puzzled, his current stature, not to mention the old man, even a young lad, would not be able to dodge his palm.
However, just now, the old man in front of him was able to dodge it very easily, which made his heart very puzzled, was it because he did not use his full strength? Or was the other party really unfathomable?
“Old man, what are you doing! Are you annoyed!”
Just as Lin Ran was wondering in his mind, a voice suddenly came from not far away.
When he looked up, he saw a drunken youth stumbling over, while cursing.
“What are you sweeping at night? Let’s not let me sleep!”
With that, the youth had already walked up to the old man, followed by grabbing the broom in the latter’s hand and throwing it towards the distance.
“Hey, hey! Don’t throw it!”
The old man said in a hurry, while rushing towards the broom.
Lin Ran took this opportunity to look at the other party’s pace, which was indeed unique to the elderly and did not look like a deep hide.
“Could it be that he was overthinking things? Is he just a pure sweeper?”
Lin Ran thought to himself.
However, the drunken youth, seeing Lin Ran standing still, felt provoked and immediately walked towards Lin Ran, cursing as he did so.
“Kid? Are you F**king looking down on me? I have to beat you up today!”
With that, the youth swung out his fist and greeted Lin Ran’s head.
