Chapter 9: Luochuan Talent
Nangong Mu gently pushed open the door of his grandfather's wooden study, gently poked his head in, and saw him sitting on a chair, concentrating on writing and drawing. That is her maternal grandfather, Nangong Yi.
"Come in!" Nangong Yi didn't look up, and shouted in a dull voice. Although he is old, his spirit is the same as he was back then.
"Hehe......" Nangong Mu jumped in as soon as he raised his foot, and said with a smile, "Grandfather, you are so powerful, you didn't even look up to know that I was coming......"
"Hmph...... As long as you are poor, don't you know how to come back to report peace to me?" Nangong Yi showed a dissatisfied look, "Do you still have my grandfather in your eyes!"
Nangong Mujiao said angrily, "Yes, my eyes are full of you, don't you see that I'm here?"
"It's your cousin this time, they're wrong, I've already punished them!" Nangong Yi's eyes darkened.
"Aren't I doing well?" Nangong Mu spun around with a smile. "How many times have I suffered since I was a child?"
Nangong Yi looked at Nangong Mu, she was slender and bright-eyed, I don't know when she had grown into a big girl. It's just a man's clothes, quite a bit of Yushu's posture in the wind, and he can't help but sigh.
"Amu...... My grandfather made you live like a man, did you ever blame me?" If it was a girl from an ordinary family, at this age, she would have already started to do things with her family.
"What are you complaining about, I don't want to squirm like a girl......" Nangong Mu said with a smile on his face.
If you don't look closely, you really can't see that it is a woman...... "Alas......" Nangong Yi sighed again. I don't know if he's right or wrong to do this! He turned his head and looked at the picture he had just drawn, "Amu, my grandfather will test you a few questions!"
"Well, you ask!" Nangong Mu sat on the wooden recliner and waited quietly.
"How many families are there in Luochuan?"
"There are four in total, namely East Jiufang, West Baili, North South Palace, and North and South Tang. In addition, there are some branches of each big family, such as the Nalan family and the Nangong family, which are of the same root and origin. In addition, there are some branches that have been divided, and they occupy a territory and have their own faction. ”
"Hmm!" Nangong Yi nodded with satisfaction and stroked the beard on his chin, "Then let me ask you again, which of the four major families is more special?"
"Naturally, it is the Baili family, the Baili family has no spiritual power, but they are proficient in magic weapon swordsmanship, and they have obtained the true inheritance of the beast control technique, so they can be on an equal footing with the other three. ”
"Why do you say that big family, which was plagued by internal and external troubles, put down a rebellion and expanded its territory in just twenty years?"
"Hmm......" Nangong Mu thought for a moment, "For a big clan to rise in such a short period of time, either there is a leader who understands strategy and makes good use of people, or there is a capable general who is extremely brave." ”
"Good...... It's worthy of my granddaughter!" Nangong Yi nodded happily, "That's not bad at all!"
"What my grandfather said...... Which one is it?" Nangong Mu asked curiously, slowed down, and said slowly, "Rising rapidly and expanding the field in the past twenty years, isn't it the Jiufang family?"
"Naturally. At this time, Nangong Yi's face showed a grim look, "And if it continues to develop in this form, it won't be long before the Nangong family will be coerced." ”
"Is the Jiufang family really that powerful?" Nangong Mu was surprised.
"Do you know the four most famous outstanding teenagers in Luochuan?" Nangong Yi did not answer her directly, but asked her another question.
"Naturally, I know!" Nangong Mu nodded, "The Nine Fang Moon Evil of the Jiufang Family, the Baili Ling Tian of the Baili Family, the Northern Tang Xuan of the Northern Tang Family, and our Nangong Family's Cousin Yuan!"
"Well, the strength of these people should not be underestimated, but in fact, the most powerful is the Nine Directions Moon Evil of the Nine Directions Family. Nangong Yi suddenly showed a look of helplessness and envy!"Although your cousin Yuan's reputation is on par with him, whether it is cultivation or swordsmanship, it is definitely not comparable to your cousin Yuan...... It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the first person in the Luochuan Continent in a hundred years. Jiufang Yi was able to give birth to such a son, it was really a blessing from his previous life......"
"So powerful?" Nangong Mu was surprised, the person who could make her grandfather praise so much must not be an ordinary person, she suddenly remembered the man she met in the magic forest who was as cold as ice and snow, and unconsciously fought a cold war. It immediately occurred to me that this person would be ...... Her instincts have always been accurate.
"Amu is almost sixteen, isn't he?" Nangong Yi suddenly changed the topic.
"Hmm......" Nangong Mu's scalp suddenly jumped up, and she had a bad premonition.
"Do you have any young talents in any family? If so, when you are an adult, let you marry in style......
Sure enough...... "Grandfather, what are you talking nonsense? I'm still young! Besides, how can you let me marry a fake man?"
"You don't have to worry about this! My grandfather will definitely not wronged you in the husband's area, the Baili family and the Northern Tang family are good! Which one do you prefer? I think it's still the Baili Ling Tian of the Baili family......
"Grandfather!" Nangong Mu raised his eyebrows angrily, "Before Nalan Qianyu didn't get married, I would never think about it!"
"......" my grandfather paused, and spoke again, "The one in the Northern Tang family, although he is a talent, is too young and has too little experience, and now it is the Northern Tang Lan who is in charge of the affairs of the Northern Tang family...... But Bei Tanglan is a little older than you, and he seems to have a marriage contract. This person is very deep in the city, and his grandfather may not be able to see through it...... He's not suitable for you after all! Going around, it's better to go around and around for a hundred miles!"
"I'll go back first!" Nangong Mu ran out of the study as if he had run away.
Nangong Yi looked at the back of Nangong Mu who fled in the wilderness, and sighed deeply.
The Baili family is the best choice, they also have no spiritual power, if Nangong Mu marries over, they will definitely not be discriminated against. It's just that...... I heard that Baili Ling Tian is very high-spirited, and he is romantic. How could such a man be worthy of his own family's Amu?
Nangong Yi turned his head back to the room and took out a portrait from the bookcase. The painting shows a woman, wearing a green Luo skirt, holding a bouquet of flowers and smiling like a flower.
Nangong Yi looked at it for a long time and said in a deep voice, "Zixuan...... What do you want your father to do?"
※※※
Nangong Mu did not return to his bedroom, but climbed the Wangsheng tree...... Lying on the wide trunk of the tree, I leisurely watched the sun slowly set in the west, and the sunset dyed the sky fiery red, which was a unique sight. She looked at the clouds in a daze, and slowly a wave of sleepiness hit, her eyelids became heavier and heavier, and she fell asleep.
Nangong Mu felt a little itchy in her sleep, and opened her eyes dimly sleepy, and a face suddenly appeared in front of her, a man's face to be precise. At this moment, he was looking at her with a smile on his face......
"Ah......hh Hell!" Nangong Mu screamed and jumped up from the trunk, and his feet slipped and he was about to fall.
The person who came covered her mouth and pressed her down on the trunk of the tree, his eyes were a little anxious and dodged, and he hurriedly said, "Shhh......h
Nangong Mu came to his senses and carefully looked at the man in front of him, dressed in a blue flowing dress, with slender eyebrows and eyes, and his appearance was excellent. In her right hand, she was still holding a tender green leaf, which had just pulled her out of her sleep, and it must have been its fault.
Nangong Mu pushed away the hand covering his mouth, and asked in a low voice, "Who are you?"
The man suddenly looked embarrassed, and squirmed for a long time before he slowly spoke, "My name is Bei Tang Xuan!"
