It was getting late, the moon was on the mountain, and there were no big city lights and stars here that were particularly bright, and the sky was full of stars. At this time, after the banquet, except for the people of Nangong's own family, most of them slept, and a few people were drunk, and Nangong He paced in the house with the maidservant.

They walked through the front hall, the middle hall, the boundary rockery, the patrol did not stop, the two continued to walk, through many residential houses, although the light was dim, but she could roughly distinguish, and finally they stopped in front of a big house, by the moonlight, vaguely can recognize the solemn appearance of the big house, and look at it, two solemn big characters on the plaque "ancestral hall".

Nangong He took a deep breath to adjust her mentality, of course she knew what the ancestral hall meant to mortals, except for the people of her own family, no one could enter the ancestral hall, most of the ancestral halls were placed in the spiritual positions of the past dynasties, but there were few other things, such as Buddha statues and other things for worship.

The maid who led the way stretched out her hand and said, "Lord Nangong is inside, and the slave can only send you here." With that, he turned and walked away.

Nangong He had just gotten off the banquet, and his clothes hadn't had time to change, and the food on his body still smelled strong, so he took out the cleansing charm from the storage bag, cleaned up the clothes, adjusted his makeup, adjusted his breathing again, raised his hand to open the door, and went in.

After Nangong He entered the door, he saw many people sitting in the ancestral hall, about ten or twenty, old people and children, presumably, this is all the people in the family, it was late at this time, and everyone in the family was waiting for herself, so she was a little unhappy.

Nangong Crane closed the door, walked to the middle of the hall, her eyes swept around the hall and the situation was clear in her mind, there were two people sitting in the hall, one was old, but his eyes were bright, and just one sat down to look very majestic, the other person was Steward Zhou, more than a dozen seats under the hall surrounded Nangong Crane in a semicircle, and in front of them sat the head of Nangong and Mrs. Nangong, Yang Wan'er. On either side sat young men in their twenties and thirties, and some of them sat a boy or girl, presumably their child. One of the young men threw a few magic circles into the main hall and disappeared, presumably a soundproof magic circle, and then the man nodded to Nangong Ao.

At this time, Nangong Ao said: "It's all your own people here, you don't need to be restrained, Ming Lu, move a stool for Aunt Brown." I saw a teenage boy on the right get up and obediently go to the wall and make a stool behind Nangong He.

The little boy said in a childish voice: "Aunt Brown, please take a seat." ”

Nangong He smiled slightly: "Thank you, go back." The little boy returned to his seat.

Nangong Ao continued: "Your name... Nangong Brown, right, don't look at what I said about the regular meeting during the day, in fact, it's all the credit of my wife, and I'm not very good at talking, so let's go straight to the point, I don't know what the relationship between you and Nangong Quan is. ”

Nangong He paused, and then the corners of his mouth went up an arc: "Does the head of the Nangong family know which 'crane' in my name is? Is it the 'crane' of the crane? or the brown 'brown'?" Nangong He answered the question, and many people didn't understand what she meant.

Suddenly, two twenty or thirty-year-old beauties on the right covered their mouths and laughed, which was very incompatible with this solemn situation but no one blamed them, only to see one of them touch the head of the child named Minglu before: "Presumably it was brown 'brown' before, but the person who named you thought it was too vulgar and changed it to 'crane' according to the homonym, so it is indeed his style, he is your master? ”

Nangong He was taken aback, she had already pulled far away, but she didn't expect this person to be thoughtful and far superior to others.

The rest of the people immediately laughed when they heard the explanation, Nangong Quan's random name did have his style, and the embarrassing atmosphere eased a lot.

Nangong said proudly: "I don't know, can you tell me about the encounter with my son Nangong Quan." "They don't know all this, and getting to know each other is the basis of chatting.

Nangong He also let down his guard, talked about his past, and met Nangong Quan, to later, Nangong Quan gave her a choice, she chose the south gate, and later entered a small shop under the south gate, after more than ten years of hard work to the position of the current hall master, finally had the opportunity to contact the family, so that now there is an opportunity to communicate privately.

After finishing speaking, Nangong He immediately asked a question: "Can you tell me how you can conclude the relationship between me and the master from a brand?" She knew something about the Nangong family, and at that time, Nangong Quan only said that it was okay to hand over the jade plate to the head of the Nangong family, but in this way, it can be determined that this is Nangong Quan's possession?

At this time, Yang Wan'er took out the account handed in by Nangong He, opened it, and took out a metal brand from it, only to see the words 'South Gate' written on it, Yang Wan'er gently stroked it: "Miss Crane is really smart and smart, and she has a lot of customers under you, so the accounts are far more detailed than others, so it is better to hand over such a large account with a knife, and use a knife to hollow out the blank paper and embed the brand, and the accounts are heavier, deepening our attention to the accounts." It wasn't until the time of posting that the brand was discovered by us. For her compliment, Nangong He is neither modest nor proud, if he doesn't think about it, he just won't do business.

Yang Wan'er paused and continued: "At first, Jing'er didn't recognize you when she got the sign, but she just thought that you designed a waist card for the south gate and hoped that we could adopt your opinion, but after thinking about it carefully, it seems to be more efficient to persuade us if you are honest and upright to get more consent from the hall master, so I discussed with Yan'er, thanks to Yan'er's sharp eyes, I found that the material of this brand was extraordinary, so I knew that you might be an informant sent by Quan'er." ”

At this time, the man who threw out the magic circle before said: "I'm ashamed, I am quite accomplished in the refining weapon, but the material of this brand has really not been seen, not only that, but even many materials are not recorded, maybe the girl you don't know, Xiaoquan left a knife before leaving, and the material of the knife is the same, plus the girl is surnamed Nangong again, so many coincidences add up to no longer coincidences, but inevitable, presumably Xiaoquan told you to enter my house and then get in touch." ”

Nangong He smiled: "I see." I saw her wave, and the sign flew from Yang Wan'er's hand to her hand: "The master told me that I must join the ...... of the family" said and stopped

At this time, the dignified old man on the seat spoke: "Since Quan'er confessed, we naturally treat you as a family, although Quan'er may have introduced you to you, now I will formally introduce the people of the family, I am Quan'er's grandfather Yang Zhentian, although I am the housekeeper of the Nangong family, but it is equivalent to Xiaoquan's grandfather, this is Xiaoquan's father......" After a while, she memorized the people of the family, he didn't expect that Nangong Quan's generation actually had children, the previous Ming Lu was the son of Nangong Jing and Qingyan, Nangong Ping and others actually had it, and the mortal world was much faster than the immortal cultivation world.

Nangong He was puzzled: "I remember that the master said that he has two uncles, why is there only one here?"

As soon as she said this, there were all kinds of expressions on the faces of the people present, Yang Zhentian continued: "I'm ashamed to say it, the eldest of the two sons of the old man, Yang Ming, the second Yang Feng, my second son has always thought that the Nangong family is weak and disdainful of being with it, when the family decided to relocate, the second child strongly objected, at that time, both the status of the Yang family and the status of the Nangong family were very high in Tiancheng Country, my Yang family had the help of the army, and made countless military exploits for the Tiancheng country, and the Nangong family was very good at doing business, and the taxes paid every year were not many times more than other families. Xiaoquan came back at that time, and we expelled him from the family, presumably he also told you about it, and now that I think about it, this is the stupidest decision we have ever made. ”

Speaking of this, the other people's faces were very bad, and an atmosphere of regret filled the entire room, Yang Zhentian continued: "A few years after Xiao Quan left, we found that because the family was too strong, it had threatened the country, and there was more than one country. Originally, the world is not peaceful now, and our growth has become a thorn in the side of all countries, and they all want to annex my Yang family and Nangong family. We found some signs, discussed it for a long time, and decided to relocate, but the second child strongly opposed it, and took away part of the army to stand on its own. At this time, we also began to move our family, and it didn't take long for the news of my Yang family's Nangong family treason, the second child's army was completely wiped out, and the corpse was hung on the city gate for three days and three nights. Therefore, there is only the eldest Yang Ming here, although the second child is dead, but the two grandchildren are still alive, and he pointed to Yang Qi and Yang Rou as he spoke. He sighed.

Nangong He also regretted: "I'm really sorry, I didn't expect my family to have this kind of past." How did the family finally get here without the eyes and ears of the nations? She avoided the crowd's grief for too long, and then changed the subject.

Nangong said proudly: "Father-in-law, I'll talk about this." In the process of migrating, my Nangong family absorbed many people, refugees from various countries, and bandits who were forced to go to the cottage. After a long time, we decided to find a deserted place, so we sent the eldest son and the second son-in-law to find such a place, so the son-in-law chose to come here, after setting up a maze, we dispersed the personnel, and it took a month to transfer all the people of our family to the night in batches, at this time this is not the case, we took into account that there are still refugees and cottage people, so we made a decision, some people are based on the world of cultivating immortals, revitalize' South Gate', otherwise the materials here would not be able to keep up at first, and in addition, it would be good for Quan'er to know that we had left the Tiancheng Kingdom, and now it would not be a problem for him to return to the family at all. At the same time as everyone was transferred, we established the village, and the outside world, with the 'South Gate' as a foothold, we were able to get to where we are today. I don't need to say more about the rest. Nangong He smiled and nodded slightly.

After he finished speaking, Yang Wan'er said anxiously: "Quan'er must have told you about our recognition of him, if he knew that we had separated from Tiancheng Kingdom, he would definitely return to the family, Quan'er, Quan'er." Tears welled up in his eyes as he spoke

Nangong He said: "Madame, there is no need to worry, Lord Nangong sent me to return to his family instead of him, he already knows the situation of his family, but he doesn't know how to go home, I am doing business in the 'South Gate' as the hall master, if he goes out of Shushan, he will naturally contact me, you don't need to worry." Oh, by the way, he said that he can't recognize his family now, he said that he still has a lot of things to deal with now, and he will recognize his family when he leaves Shushan. This is a more complicated thing, and it may not be completed in a hundred years. ”

Everyone gasped, a hundred years ago? Nangong Ao frowned: "Indeed, how can it be so easy to get out once you enter the immortal cultivation realm, I thought that he could have a good cultivation and live a better life in the future, but now that even the family is separated, I am incompetent as a father." 100 years? Alas. ”

At this time, Yang Zhentian said: "Put away your mortal thoughts, we are all monks in the early stage of foundation building now, what is a hundred years? The voice was deafening, and he was indeed a battle-hardened person, but why did this sound so penetrating?

Yang Wan'er shook her head helplessly: "Father, what nonsense are you talking in front of outsiders?"

Yang Zhentian said: "What kind of outsiders, is the person sent by Quan'er an outsider? You all step up your cultivation, hurry up your cultivation to the foundation building period, and live to be about two hundred years old, and no one is allowed to die until you wait for Quan'er!"

Yang Wan'er smiled bitterly: "Let the girl smile, the old man is such a person." I was wrong just now, don't take it personally. ”

Nangong Crane said: "No, no, by the way, the master also explained, if you return to the south gate, you will have to distribute the jade card, the family must have one, and you must also understand the secret of the waist card." ”

Everyone's eyes focused on Qing Yan's face, and Qing Yan asked, "What secret?"

Nangong He put his hands on the jade plate, and saw that the jade card was divided into several and distributed to everyone: "The master didn't say too much, just said that after success, he could communicate with divine thoughts, and they had succeeded." Everyone's face was stunned, if others said that they might not believe it, but the words came from Nangong Quan's mouth, they couldn't help but believe it, Divine Mind Communication, I have never heard of anyone below the Yuan Infant Stage who can do it, even with the help of tools.

After a long time, Qing Yan seemed to accept this fact, and said, "Why didn't he get your jade plate on it?"

Nangong He smiled bitterly: "The master said that there is no refining equipment there, and it is quite troublesome to get this one, and it is better not to get in touch for the time being, the master still hopes that the Nangong family will hide for a while, because his current situation is not very good." ”

Qing Yan said: "Indeed, just talking about the exchange of divine thoughts, if it is exposed, let alone not being able to gain a foothold in Shu Mountain, even the immortal cultivation realm may cause an uproar." ”

Nangong He breathed a sigh of relief, in this way, he completed the things that Nangong Quan explained, and one of the purposes of arriving at his house this time was also completed.

But I heard Nangong Jing say: "Thank you Miss Crane for everything you have done for my Nangong family, I thought about it for a while, I hope that the girl can become the altar master of the general altar that is about to be established, I don't know what the girl wants." ”
