Chapter 135: Awakening
Feeling the strength in his hand, it seemed that he was still trembling slightly, although Jian Yiyi's heart was already extremely shocked, she still forced herself to look at the old man in front of her calmly.
What does she seem to know?
"Don't be afraid, kid, I'll just confirm." Looking at the cute and soft child in front of him, the old man gently patted the soft palm, and his eyes were as peaceful as ever.
Xu felt the kindness in the old man's eyes, and the girl sighed and nodded.
After receiving the girl's confirmation, the old man's originally nervous mood relaxed, and finally turned into a sigh.
"You know?" For this, Jian Yiyi is really curious.
Grandma has always stayed in the countryside, how could she know about things so far away?
Even the father didn't seem to notice that the daughter beside him had a soul change deep down.
No one would believe such an unbelievable thing, right?
"Son, follow me." Dong Shuzhen got up at this time and walked outside.
With doubts in her head, the girl stepped forward and helped her directly.
The two of them quickly came to the farthest room on the second floor.
"Squeak!" As the door was pushed open, a faint scent of sandalwood slowly wafted out from inside.
"Let's go." The old man glanced at the girl beside him and continued to walk inside.
Because it was daytime, the room was very bright, like a study, and there were many books on the wall on one side.
"Come, kid." The old man skillfully took out a thick pile of paper from the bookcase next to him and handed it over directly.
Although the girl was still confused, she still took it politely.
"After reading this, you'll know." Dong Shuzhen sat on a chair in front of the bookcase, looking out the window, as if caught in a memory.
"Nangong Clan?" Looking at the words on the front page in her hand, Jian Yiyi felt a sigh in her heart, and a strange feeling sprouted.
It can't be the Nangong clan she knows, right?
Flipping through the yellowed paper, there were some handwritten materials on it.
Jian Yiyi read the entire handwritten information in less than half an hour.
It seems that she is still absorbing what is here, and the girl's whole person is a little empty, as if she has not been able to come back to her senses.
"Done?" The old man's voice of concern came from the side.
Jian Yiyi came back to her senses, looking at the old man with a hint of surprise.
"So, our branch is a side branch of the Nangong clan?"
The old man nodded.
"And, for unknown reasons, there are fewer and fewer people? So grandma, you brought your mother to Beicheng with a different name and surname? When the girl said this, some of her previous doubts were answered.
Maybe it's because life is too hard, the old man is so careful in his calculations, right? I was also worried that my mother would encounter danger when she arrived in the city, and deliberately made things difficult for my father.
Thinking of the car accident that happened in the year of my mother's death, could it be related to this?
"The Nangong clan has a secret technique that many people want to get, and sometimes the children who have always been well qualified in the side branch will also inherit this secret technique." The old man seemed to be reminiscing about the old days.
"Can this secret art predict the future or the past?" Thinking of the things in the information, Jian Yiyi's brows couldn't help but furrow.
This world is really fantasy.
"Many people in the Nangong family will not awaken this ability like normal people." The old man seemed to suddenly remember something, and sighed deeply.
"I also knew about Yiyi in my dreams these days, and I thought it would be impossible to awaken this kind of ability that would bring disaster in this life."
Thinking of the things in the family before, the old man's eyes slowly brought a touch of coldness.
