Chapter 4 Grandma is a Soul Master?
The old woman kept eating popcorn, and the love for Chen Mofei in her eyes became more and more intense, and she suddenly said for no reason: "Fei'er, do you want to go to the imperial city?"
"Imperial City?"
"The old lady chose Chen Mofei?"
"He... But a wild boy... How could it be..."
Everyone was dumbfounded, and Chen Mofei was also puzzled.
"Why are you going to the Imperial City?"
Chen Mofei asked.
The old woman said patiently: "The youngest princess of Cangqing is also twelve years old now, but she is slim and elegant, a standard beauty embryo, the royal family has promised me a marriage contract, in the future, my Chen family can marry a royal princess, I think you are good, so I want to give you this marriage contract, let you marry a princess, okay?"
As soon as the old woman finished speaking, someone in the hall spoke out against it.
Chen Qitai in the second room said in a deep voice: "Grandma, do you know the origin of this six-room boy?"
The old woman asked suspiciously, "Where did it come from?"
Chen Qiwu from the third room continued: "Twelve years ago, the sixth brother suddenly returned to the mansion in a hurry in the middle of the night, and before he entered the door, the horse ran to death, he was covered in blood, and he took this son out of his arms, and it didn't take long for the sixth brother to pass away due to injuries. ”
The people in the other rooms stood up one after another at this moment and added them one by one.
At that time, no one knew what was going on, and the big guy was full of doubts, but the sixth brother just didn't explain the reason. ”
"The sixth brother entrusted this son to us before he died, let us take good care of him, and regard him as our Chen family's own bloodline, but in the end, the blood on this child's body is not our Chen family's!
"Yes, grandma, we have never treated him as an outsider, since the sixth brother has to save this child at the cost of his life, we also treat him as the sixth brother's own son, he has everything that the Mo generation in the house enjoys, this is already a great care, at this time grandma actually wants to give him the marriage contract with the royal family...... This..... It's unfair!"
"yes, it's not fair!"
In the midst of everyone's gossip, the old woman figured out Chen Mofei's origin, but he did not change his attitude towards Chen Mofei at all, but his eyes showed a look of distress, and he still asked Chen Mofei at this moment: "Just tell me, would you like to go to the imperial city?"
Chen Mofei lives in the Chen Mansion, and has always understood that he is not the real descendant of the Chen family, and in the face of everyone's opposition to this matter, he also understands very well, after all, it is a marriage with the royal family, why should it be his turn as an outsider.
Chen Mofei stood up, knelt down in front of the old woman, and said seriously: "Thanks to Grandma's love, it's just that Mo Fei is not the bloodline of the Chen Mansion, and other brothers should be chosen for this matter, and it is unreasonable for me to accept such a happy event." ”
Seeing that Chen Mofei knew the general situation so well, everyone's anxious faces eased a little.
Seeing this, the old woman looked a little sullen, and her face gradually gloomy looked at several fathers in the family: "This family, or am I not in charge? Don't you think that I am old and useless in my words?"
Everyone was suddenly frightened and knelt down one after another: "Don't dare to .........."
"Since I chose Fei'er, that is Fei'er, he is related to my Chen family, he is the heir of my Chen family, and he will also be written into the family tree! ”
The crowd tried to protest, but the old woman gave them no chance, and staggered back to her yard on crutches.
For a while, Chen Mofei became the target of public criticism, and everyone in the whole house gave him a good look, Chen Mofei was also helpless, thinking that I also refused, but this old lady just insisted on me, and he had no way at all, in the end, he was not interested in trekking through mountains and rivers to the imperial city, where he was unfamiliar with life, and he didn't know if it was fun or not.
Besides, since it is a marriage, why not let the princess come to Suzhou City, but let herself go to the imperial city, isn't this a burden?
Nine-foot ..... Although he is only six feet old now, he is also a little husband after all, but if he is rich, what dignity is there?
And that's the princess, the emperor's daughter, if you accidentally provoke her, or if the other party brushes the seven-star purple, will she still have a way to live?
But these words are useless, the old woman has made up her mind, looking at her posture is vigorous and resolute, she can't listen to the advice of others, Chen Mofei is too lazy to speak, since he has decided so, then he will wait to be a colt.
But a few adults were unhappy with themselves, and they didn't even let a few brothers play with them.
It's really a big family!
Chen Mofei returned to his room depressedly, and Xu's mother also came in at this time.
I saw him holding a bowl of white fungus soup, brought it to Chen Mofei's face, and comforted him with concern: "Sixth Young Master don't have to feel embarrassed, the old woman may have her reasons for doing this, these people don't like you on weekdays, although they have been coping with it on the surface, but behind the scenes, you can always hear them complaining to you, leaving here to go to the imperial city, maybe it's a good thing." ”
Hearing Xu's mother's comfort, Chen Mofei felt a little better, he picked up the white fungus soup and drank it, and said vaguely: "But I'm only twelve years old, doesn't Cangqing's law stipulate that a man can't get married until eighteen?"
Mother Xu patted Chen Mofei's elm head: "Stupid, then you can't get acquainted with the princess, cultivate some feelings first, do you know why the old woman can marry the royal family?"
Mother Xu had also heard a lot about what happened back then, so she told Chen Mofei everything at this time.
"That was many years ago, when the old lady was still young, she was indeed a peerless beauty as you said today, but not only that, the old lady was also a spirit master!"
"Soul Master?"
Chen Mofei had heard of this name for the first time.
Mother Xu continued: "That's right, Imperial Soul Master, when the old lady was young, it was a peerless generation, with the ability to burn the sky and boil the sea, she helped Cangqing at that time to erect an unshakable regime in the east of the Heavenly Desolate Continent, that is a famous place for the founding of the country! ”
"Grandma is so interested and so free-spirited, but she is really a heroine among women!"
Chen Mofei listened with admiration on his face, and a yearning rose in his heart, he also wanted to become a spirit master, with many extraordinary abilities.
So, that night.
Chen Mofei took advantage of the night to sneakily wander around the mansion.
After several twists and turns, he came to a courtyard, and just wanted to climb into the low wall, but saw the voice of an old woman coming from inside.
"If you want to enter, you will come in through the gate of the courtyard, and you will do something over the wall. ”
Chen Mofei was startled, and was struggling to climb halfway when he fell down in response.
Standing up in embarrassment, Chen Mofei pushed open the courtyard door while rubbing his buttocks and walked in, but saw the old woman in the courtyard, lying on a bench, enjoying the moonlight.
"Grandma, you didn't say it earlier, it hurt me to fall and my ass hurt. ”
Chen Mofei looked aggrieved and complained and came to the old woman's side.
The old woman smiled: "Little ghost, what is the so-called thing about coming to me in the middle of the night? ”
Chen Mofei waved his hand, as if he didn't care about the marriage contract anymore: "It's not for that, I want to.... I want to ask my grandmother for a little ....... That...."
Seeing that Chen Mofei had been holding back for a long time and didn't hold back a fart, the old woman urged impatiently: "Go out without saying anything, don't disturb my rest!"
"Don't, grandma, I said I said, I just wanted to ask about the spirit master!"
Chen Mofei shrank his neck and was very embarrassed to say his purpose, he was worried that the old lady in front of him would feel that he was not able to do anything, so he reprimanded himself.
Unexpectedly, the old woman looked disapproving, but looked a little surprised: "You want to learn the art of spirit control?"
Chen Mofei nodded cowardly.
But the old woman sighed and said, "Alas, there is no way to learn it." ”
Chen Mofei's heart was empty, and he hurriedly asked, "Why?"
At this time, the old woman slowly raised one of her hands, and in Chen Mofei's fuss, a flame suddenly appeared out of thin air in her hand.
"Wow, this is?"
Chen Mofei asked the old woman with a look of disbelief.
"That's the power of the Soul Master. ”
The old woman put away the flame and said indifferently: "In the past, this flame of mine was ten thousand feet high, but now, it can only condense such a small flame. ”
"Ten thousand zhang high?" Chen Mofei raised his eyes and looked at the starry sky, calculating in his heart how high the flame was, I was afraid that it was going to burn the clouds.
"It's not what it used to be, and I don't know when the aura between heaven and earth is getting thinner and thinner, and today, even I can't feel much anymore, and the spiritual power in my body is gradually passing, maybe in a few years, even this small flame is gone. ”
The old woman said with regret.
Chen Mofei also felt a trace of regret, according to the old lady, his crossing seemed to have become meaningless, if he just lived a dull life, it would be too boring.
With a hint of unwillingness, Chen Mofei still insisted on learning the art of controlling spirits.
The old woman couldn't resist her, but fortunately, she still had some books on learning the art of controlling spirits, so she simply gave them to Chen Mofei.
Chen Mofei returned with a full load, returned to his room with a bunch of old and dilapidated books, and immediately studied them with great interest.
After opening the book, Chen Mofei seemed to open the door to a new world all of a sudden, and the various bizarre descriptions in the book deeply touched his nerves.
This look is a whole night.
When it was dawn on the second day, when Xu's mother entered the house early, she was instantly startled by the scene in front of her.
I saw all kinds of books scattered on the ground and on the table, but Chen Mofei fell asleep on a book.
"What's the matter? I haven't heard that the sixth young master loves to learn?"
Mother Xu also doesn't know a single big character, so she naturally can't recognize what kind of book this is, and thinks it's the Four Books and Five Classics that other young masters and young ladies are reading, in her eyes, Chen Mofei has never liked to read, could it be that her brain is open and willing to work hard?
Carrying Chen Mofei to bed, Xu's mother packed up the scattered books and left.
At this moment, Chen Mofei turned over in a daze on the bed, and muttered: "It's fast, it's fast, I found the feeling ......."
At this moment, a thunderbolt appeared in his palm without warning, and it was fleeting.
But if you look closely at this thunder light, it is actually black.
