In the hall of golden tile glaze, carved dragons and phoenixes, a little girl dressed in a gorgeous princess dress, curled up in a soft and comfortable soft chair, her eyes were wet, obviously she had just cried for a long time, and muttered in her mouth, "Brother, grandpa, how can you leave me behind, Nian'er misses you very much, I really want to." ”

Long Nian, who has never left home since she was a child, has already secretly cried dry tears, she knows that something big must have happened to her grandfather and brother, otherwise she would not say goodbye like this, she guessed many possibilities, but there is no possibility to make herself feel at ease.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, the little prince said that he would come over after the martial arts training was over in a while. The guard outside the door reported carefully.

"Well, got it. Nian'er replied.

It's been almost two months since I left home, and I don't know if my grandfather and brother have gone back to look for me, and if I will worry about myself. Nian'er still remembers the scene of that day clearly.

That day, Nian'er was woken up by a few strange screams in a daze, and when she opened her eyes, she saw that the sky was not completely bright, and she followed the prestige to the door to the fourth uncle of the back mountain, and there was a monster standing next to her with a green body, although it looked strange and fierce, looking at its eyes gave Nian'er a sense of docility.

"Fourth Uncle, why are you here?" Nian'er asked curiously.

"Come with me first, let's talk as we go. The fourth uncle's words were a little eager.

"What about my grandfather and brother?" Nian'er asked.

"They've gone first, come with me. Nian'er followed the fourth uncle out of the house.

What caught Nian'er's eyes was no longer the quiet village of the past, everything that was familiar was beyond recognition, a large number of houses had collapsed, everywhere was a mess, his yard was also dilapidated, there were many wild beasts rushing by, and there were still people's cries in the distance, Nian'er asked in horror: "What's the matter, grandpa, where did my brother go?"

The fourth uncle hugged Nian'er on the monster's back and urged: "This place is not suitable for a long time, hurry up and follow me, I will tell you slowly." ”

The fourth uncle told him that the village barrier had disappeared, and all kinds of powerful spirit beasts in the deep mountains had broken into the village, and it was no longer safe here, and her grandfather and brother had already left first, so there was no need to worry about it. The fourth uncle then left Long Nian on the monster's back alone, and told her not to come down, the monster would take her to where she should go, and her grandfather and brother would look for her in the future, and finally, with complicated eyes, he said to her: "Remember, don't trust anyone from now on!"

The monster ran as fast as she could, and Nian'er watched the scene fly by, and in a blink of an eye, she could no longer see the village where she had lived for twelve years.

I don't know how long I ran, the monster stopped in front of a group of people, Nian'er saw a man in a fancy dress walking towards him, and kept chanting: "Auspicious from the sky, the divine beast is coming!" The monster put Nian'er down, then turned around and hurried away.

Nian'er saw the man's entourage kneeling on the ground one by one, kowtowing incessantly.

The man asked, "Are you a fairy?"

"My name is Long Nian. Nian'er replied timidly.

The man looked at the girl who was a little panicked, took her hand, and said softly, Come with me, so he took Nian'er on his horse and galloped all the way to the palace to meet the emperor.

The emperor was a middle-aged man with a gentle appearance, and when he first saw Nian'er, he stared at Nian'er in surprise for a long time. Later, he said that he had a fate with Nian'er and wanted to recognize Nian'er as his daughter.

When he first arrived in a strange environment, Long Nian was resistant to everything, let alone recognize a man he had never met as his father, but when he thought of his grandfather and brother, Nian'er's heart was still shaken. Now that he is alone, he has long been separated from them, let alone looking for them, and he doesn't even know where they are. Perhaps only by becoming the emperor's daughter will they know that they are safe, and perhaps only in this way will they have a greater chance of seeing them again.

So, Nian'er nodded with tears in her eyes.

Then the emperor summoned the world, collected the dragon as a righteous daughter, gave the name and also sought the thought, and worshiped the ancestors in the astrological altar on the first day of the winter month of the ninety years of the Hai Ji.

In two months, Long Nian got to know this new world little by little. I also learned some things about the monk spirit master from the prince, and it can be said that in the past two months, Long Nian's growth has not been less than that of Long Xiao.

Nian'er was still immersed in thick memories, the door suddenly opened, and a young man ran in, the young man's face was like a crown of jade, his facial features were full of aura, and a golden dress added a lot of noble temperament, he said with a smile while running, "Nian'er, what are you doing?" Today I am full of rank, and I am finally about to enter the ranks of Dongxuan monks. ”

In two months, the two of them have already become acquainted, and they also respect this prince, although they are not as good as their brother, Nian'er feels that he is really good to himself, Nian'er smiled slightly and said, "Congratulations." ”

"I know it's boring in the palace, but it's okay, we can go out the day after tomorrow, my father said that the day after tomorrow is an auspicious day, and he is going to take us to the astrological altar to worship the gods. The young man saw Nian'er's sad face and said with concern.

"Well, he told me before, I know. ”

The streets were emptied early in the morning, and from the gate of the palace to the astrological altar, the floor was covered with glittering and gorgeous carpets, and the sedan chairs and ceremonies all showed the dignity of the owner. The bustling crowd stood on both sides of the street, waiting for the newly recognized righteous daughter of the emperor of the first empire in the world, the Holy Ancient Xuanguo, and everyone wanted to see with their own eyes what kind of girl she was, and she could have such great luck and honor.

In the crowd, there was a person who seemed particularly impatient, he kept looking at the direction of the honor guard slowly coming, his breathing became more and more rapid, beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and his two eyes were eager to see through the whole street, and the anxiety in his heart was already overflowing.

"Second uncle, do you think it could really be Nian'er?" asked Long Xiao looking at the street without squinting.

"You've asked me dozens of times, maybe yes or maybe not. The second uncle shook his head helplessly.

They also thought about going directly to the palace to find out, but found that there were too many courtyards of buildings, intricate roads, and the aura of masters that could be felt everywhere, which was not something they could cope with at all, so they could only wait for this opportunity to worship the gods.

"Long Xiao, if it's really your sister, what are you going to do?" the second uncle asked.

"Take her away, of course. Long Xiao replied categorically.

"Where are you going, fleeing with you and wandering with you?" the second uncle asked coldly.

After listening to the words of the second uncle, Long Xiao stayed there all of a sudden, and his heart, which was still a mess just now, was dead silent.

Long Xiao frowned, his brain went blank, he closed his eyes tightly, held his head in both hands, and let out a long breath.

He suddenly remembered what his grandfather had said to him, "Your sister, if we can prevent her from stepping into the ranks of spirit masters, we must do our best to protect her and prevent her from being drawn into the right and wrong of the spirit master world, which is also the wish of your parents." ”

"Yes, do you want to accompany me to escape and endure hardships with me? With me, will Nian'er really be happy? Grandpa probably doesn't want this, will my father and mother complain about me in the future? Maybe this palace compound is the place that can protect Nian'er's life and safety. Long Xiao muttered.

The emperor's guard of honor drove slowly, and the girl on the sedan chair was getting closer and closer, Nian'er looked through the gorgeous pearls swaying in the wind through the window of the sedan chair, anxiously searching for Long Xiao and his grandfather in the crowd, but only saw the heads of the guards on both sides of the road.

Long Xiao looked at the sister in the sedan chair who had been hurt by him for twelve years and gradually approached him, but he couldn't say a word.

It was the first time Long Xiao saw Nian'er wearing such beautiful clothes, the first time he saw Nian'er and so many people envy him, and the first time he felt that his sister who was ignorant of the world had also grown into a big girl. Long Xiao just watched Nian'er pass by quietly like this, and gradually walked away, letting his tears flow so recklessly.

Long Xiao looked at the sedan chair in the distance and muttered: "Nian'er, no one will laugh at you anymore for being a child without a father and a mother, you must be good." Then, he wiped away his tears and turned away.

After Long Xiao turned to leave, Nian'er seemed to feel something, turned around and searched carefully in the crowd, but there was no result after all, she turned her head in frustration, looked ahead blankly and said, "Grandpa, brother, where are you? What should I do in the future?"

"Fortunately, the whole world thinks that your parents only gave birth to you, and for your sister, staying away from you is protecting her, maybe the palace is the safest place, and your decision is right. Looking at Long Xiao's lonely back, the second uncle said.

"So where do we go now?"

"Let's go to Zhang's house first. The second uncle sighed and said.
