Chapter 001: One Against Eight
Mizhou City, the imperial capital of the Great Qin Empire.
The first family of the empire, controlling the military power of the empire, has many reputations such as "the cornerstone of the empire" and "the ancient chariot of the town", and the mansion of the Nanke family is located in the southern city of Mizhou.
Five hundred years ago, Nan Kebo, the ancestor of the Nan Ke family, followed Emperor Taizu to conquer the north and south, opened up the territory, and finally pacified the world.
Inheriting the courage of Nan Kebo, the descendants of the Nan Ke family are all brave and good at fighting, especially the 'Nightmare Army' of the Nan Ke family is even more prestigious, and the military power is terrifying and intimidating.
For five hundred years, they have done their best to protect the Great Qin Empire, and the descendants of the Nanke family have been flattering their ancestors, loyal and good for generations, and taking it as their responsibility to defend the empire.
It is precisely like this that the Nanke family has a prominent background, worthy of the name of the first family of the empire, the first family under the royal family, and no one can shake the status of the empire. Its mansion covers an area of nearly 1,000 acres, with many courtyard houses, countless courtyards and gardens, and dense courtyards and alleys, even the people in the mansion are easy to get lost.
The Nanke family is a martial arts clan, and the martial arts are prevalent, and the children of the clan have all been refining their bodies since childhood, which can be seen from the dozens of martial arts arenas of all sizes in the mansion.
The 'Nightmare' martial arts arena can only be used by the descendants of the family.
Bang bang bang......
The weapons collided, whistling and tearing through the air.
With a loud shout, the eight black-clothed warriors fell to the ground under the blow, their faces full of horror, their weapons scattered around, it seemed that they were no longer able to fight, and from the neckline of their black clothes, the pattern embroidered with the black nightmare beast was faintly visible.
The Nightmare Beast pattern, representing the military emblem of the 'Nightmare Army', the strongest combat power of the Great Qin Empire, I am afraid that there are few people in the Hidden Dragon Continent who do not know, and all those who can be selected for the 'Nightmare Army' are all experienced masters, but these eight people in front of them were defeated, and they were obviously all injured.
In the field, a silver-white spear was stuck upright on the ground, and a young man in white held the spear tightly with a pale face, panting, and the original white robe was broken into strips of cloth at this time, but he remained firm and did not fall.
"General Xu, let's continue!" the young man in white breathed a sigh of relief, turned to the middle-aged man who was already in surprise and shock on the sidelines, his eyes were firm, and his tone revealed an unquestionable taste.
The middle-aged man who was called 'General Xu' heard the sound and did not reply directly, he knew that the young man in white was no longer capable of fighting, and if he continued forcibly, his body would probably be overdrawn, and finally lead to collapse and coma, but his identity did not allow him to refuse, and he couldn't help but be embarrassed for a while.
At this moment, a pretty white shadow walked in from outside the martial arts arena, and General Xu's originally mournful face suddenly burst into a smile, and he hurriedly stepped forward, bowing and saluting, with a look of help in his eyes.
"The last general has seen Miss Su. ”
"General Xu is not polite. ”
The girl in white looked at the eyes of 'General Xu', as if she had insight into his thoughts, and smiled indifferently at him, like Qinglian was elegant and refined, and her voice was extremely soft and tactful, which made 'General Xu' breathe a sigh of relief.
There are only a few people in the world who can influence the young man's decision, and the girl in front of him is one of them.
The girl in white walked straight to the young man in white in the field, and when the young man in white saw her come in, he knew that it was impossible to get his wish, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. When the girl in white walked up to the young man, she took out a silk silk and wiped the sweat for the young man gently and attentively, her pretty face was full of endless love, and at the same time mixed with a trace of worry.
"Brother Rui, I think that's all for today, the challenge of the same level is already your maximum limit, if you continue to force it, I'm afraid you will be exhausted and comatose, and then you will worry your grandmother." ”
The young man in white also knew his state, sighed helplessly, let go of the spear he was holding, and let the girl in white help him to leave the place, sighing secretly in his heart.
"Hey, it looks like it's going to take some time to defeat ten. ”
Although it failed to achieve the expected effect, if it was spread out, I am afraid it would have to cause a shock. But he is not satisfied with the current state, after all, the current Nanke family can no longer afford him to relax in the slightest, only by constantly cultivating, constantly fighting to the death, can he improve his own realm, in order to restore the current decline of the Nanke family, he is now the only hope of the Nanke family.
"General Xu, you should all be busy! "When the young man in white walked to 'General Xu', he sighed and said lightly to 'General Xu'.
"Yes, Young Master Rui!"
'General Xu' finally breathed a sigh of relief, and ordered the 'Nightmare' warriors behind him to help their injured companions in the field to leave, and those 'Nightmare' warriors who had been defeated by Young Master Rui before leaving, they couldn't help but secretly glance at Young Master Rui, there was no so-called resentment or disobedience in their eyes, some just worshipped, worshiped madly.
The eight black-clothed 'Nightmare' sergeants and the white-clothed boy both belonged to the seventh-level realm of the flesh, and the white-clothed boy could defeat eight in the battle of the same level, and his combat power was not much better than that of the masters of the eighth-level realm of the flesh. And the people he defeated were not ordinary samurai, they were all members of the 'Nightmare Army' who had been baptized in blood, even in the 'Nightmare Army' competition at the same level, they were all upstream, if they were ordinary samurai, with the combat power of the young man in white, it would not be a problem to have one enemy and ten.
"Brother Rui, Xiaoxiao understands your thoughts, since your uncle and aunt suffered, Brother Zhan fell into suspended animation, the burden of the family has fallen on your head, you have become the only hope of the Nanke family, you want to revive the prestige of the Nanke family, and you want to find out the real murderer to avenge your uncle and aunt, so you keep practicing, keep fighting, but have you thought about it, if you have any mistakes, how can grandma bear it? How can the Nanke family bear it?"
"Everything must be done gradually, if you are in a hurry, it will have the opposite effect, Brother Rui promised me, don't torture yourself like this anymore, okay?"
Nan Kerui sighed, for seven years, he has been cultivating all the time, in order to be able to share his grandmother's worries one day, and he wants to find out the real culprit and avenge his parents.
He understands the meaning of the little one, and understands it even more, but whenever he sees the deeper and deeper wrinkles on his grandmother's face and the unconscious brother on the bed, he can't control it no matter what.
"Brother Rui, Xiaoxiao believes that you are the best, one day you will succeed, and Xiaoxiao will always be with you and never give up for life. Xiao Xiao's hand holding Nan Kerui tightened, and his eyes were extremely firm.
Nan Kerui bowed his head and was silent for a while, and finally nodded.
Bang! The door to the arena was slammed open.
"Young Master......"
A meatball-like guy who didn't know the current affairs 'rolled' in, and when he saw Nan Kerui and Xiaoxiao's hands, he habitually touched the top of his bare head, and he smirked twice.
"Wanguan, why are you running here?" Nan Kerui raised his head suspiciously.
Wan Guan is Nan Kerui's only attendant, and he also grew up with him, loyal to Nan Kerui, only Nan Kerui's order is obeyed, his biggest hobby is to eat, as long as there is food, he never asks for anything else.
"Young master, the 'dwarf winter melon' from Su Mansion is here, it was Master Su who sent him to find the little girl, and he seems to be in a hurry, so I brought him here. ”
He moved forward like a ball, grinning, his fat greasy hand brushing the sides of his wide robe, apparently having eaten merrily before he came.
Xiaoxiao is the most beloved granddaughter of the old lady of Sufu, and also the future wife of Nan Kerui, because the two of them were born on the same day, the same month and the same year, the two mansions thought that a miracle fell from heaven, and on the day they were born, they decided on this family business.
'Dwarf Winter Melon' is the son of the head of Sufu, who is responsible for some errands, he is meticulous in his work, and he has always been unaccustomed to eating and lazy Wanguan, and Wanguan is also not used to his serious appearance, the two have never dealt with each other, it's okay not to meet, and they pinch each other when they meet.
"Dead fat man, who do you say is the 'dwarf winter melon'......" As soon as the 'dwarf winter melon' entered the door, he happened to hear Wan Guan's words, and he couldn't help but glare at the fat man.
Nan Kerui and Su Xiaoxiao glanced at each other and smiled wryly.
"Ai Dong, looking at your hurried appearance, is there anything important for my grandfather to ask you to find me?" Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly diverged, for fear that the two would twist again and miss the right thing.
"Ah......" 'Dwarf Winter Melon' then remembered what was going on, and hurriedly turned to Su Xiaoxiao respectfully. "Miss, your aunt and grandmother are back, and the old lady asked the servant to come and call you back to the house to see you. ”
"What!?"
Su Xiaoxiao stood up in shock, and her pretty face was full of incredulity. "Grandma, is it the aunt who went to the Luotian Holy Land?"
Nan Kerui also stood up in shock, equally incredulous.
They had all heard that Su Xiaoxiao's aunt and grandmother had been selected by the Luo Tian Holy Land when she was six years old, and she was fortunate enough to enter the legendary Luo Tian Holy Land to cultivate, but it was the old yellow calendar sixty years ago, and they originally thought that they would never see her in this life, but they didn't want her to come back at this time.
'Dwarf Winter Melon' nodded his head fiercely, when he first heard the news, he was really frightened, in fact, he still hasn't come to his senses.
Su Xiaoxiao has always admired her aunt and grandmother, and now that she has the opportunity to meet the real person, she can't wait, but she still suppressed the excitement in her heart and turned to Nan Kerui.
Looking at Su Xiaoxiao's movements, Nan Kerui was moved in her heart, she was thinking about him all the time, stepped forward to pinch her Xiao Yao nose, and said with a smile.
"What are you doing standing here, haven't you always admired your aunt and grandmother, why don't you go back and see you soon, and don't forget to tell me about your aunt and grandmother by the way when you come back, in fact, I also admire her too." ”
"Hmm. Su Xiao nodded happily. "Brother Rui, I'll come to see you in two days. I'm not here for the past two days, so don't be so desperate anymore, or I'll punish you. ”
Nan Kerui nodded with a smile, suddenly thought of something, quickly stepped forward and took Su Xiaoxiao's white and tender little hand, and walked out without saying anything. "Su Mansion is a little way from here, so I'll give you a ride. ”
