Chapter 004: Old Taijun Shen

On the way home, Nan Kerui took a detour to the 'Dafugui' cloth village, and specially tailored a few sets of clothes for Hanhan to change and wear in the future.

After returning home, Nan Kerui instructed Wan Guan to take Hanhan to take a bath first, but he went directly to the Women's Garden.

Women's Garden.

The residence of Shen Lao Taijun, the real ruler of the Nan Ke family, one of the three innate supernatural masters of the empire, since Nan Ke Rui's grandfather Nan Ke Hongbo died of a recurrence of an old injury, Shen Lao Taijun has become the actual controller of the Nan Ke family, and has also become the supreme commander of the 'Nightmare Army' with the strongest combat power in the empire and subordinate to the army of the Nan Ke family.

Of course, over the years, if it weren't for Mrs. Shen's presence, the Nanke family would have fallen apart long ago.

It is said that on the day of Nan Ke Hongbo's death, the imperial civil and military officials had quarreled in the main hall, most of them wanted to take the opportunity to seize the military power, and the current emperor Qin Zheng was strong and strong, and also wanted to show his ambitions, Shen Lao Taijun was disheartened at that time, and he was happy to hand over the military power, of course, the family's descendant army 'Nightmare Army' was still in her hands.

The withdrawal of the Nanke family, so that the original eyeing of the Great Yuan, the Great Yan Empire saw the opportunity, the next two years, the two armies frequently invaded the border, many small countries also took advantage of the fire to rob, repeatedly disturbed the border, the current emperor Qin Zheng His Majesty sent a large army to crusade, it can be described as a huge momentum, but in the end it was defeated, and nearly ten cities were lost one after another.

The offensive of the Dayuan and Dayan coalition forces is about to become more and more fierce, and seeing that the troops are about to come to the city, His Majesty Qin Zheng and the ministers suddenly woke up, only then did they think of the Nanke family, the patron saint of the empire, and His Majesty Qin Zheng was even more remorseful, and in desperation, he wanted to personally lead the civil and military officials to visit Shen Lao Taijun, but Shen Lao Taijun, who did not want to wear a military uniform, took the military generals of the Nanke family into the palace to ask for a meeting, and Shen Lao Taijun made a military order in front of the civil and military officials in the main hall, which was bound to drive the enemy out of the empire, otherwise he would apologize.

His Majesty Qin Zheng deeply felt the loyalty of the Nanke family, and gave Shen Lao Taijun a dragon head crutch, and under the emperor, he respected it, and at the same time named him a mighty general, and the imperial army belonged to all under his jurisdiction.

Shen Lao Taijun personally took command, and it only took half a year to force the Great Yuan and Great Yan Empires to withdraw their troops and recover all the lost territories, and even some kingdoms that originally wanted to take a small advantage have now been assigned to the territory of the empire.

After the First World War, no one in the empire dared to underestimate the Nan Ke family, let alone underestimate Shen Lao Taijun, everyone knew that Shen Lao Taijun lived for a day, the Nan Ke family would be undefeated, and the Great Qin Empire would stand tall.

The "Women's Garden" garden gate hangs in the middle of a piece of rosewood carved horizontal plaque, on which is His Majesty's imperial pen inscription 'Women do not let the eyebrows, the mighty general of the Great Qin'.

"Grandma'......"

Nan Kerui pushed the door in, and happened to see Shen Lao Taijun on the dragon head crutches, focusing on pruning flowers and plants in the garden, stepped forward, took the scissors in Shen Lao Taijun's hand, and helped Shen Lao Taijun to leave.

"Tiny went back?"

Mrs. Shen let Nan Kerui help him sit on the soft chair, took the fragrant tea served by the maid, and took a sip gently.

Nan Kerui knows, don't look at Mrs. Shen's stay at home, but she can't hide any news from her old man.

"Hmm. ”

Nan Kerui sat opposite Old Taijun Shen and nodded. "Grandma, I'm here today to ask you to help you look at something. ”

Nan Kerui said as he opened the bag, took out the oval milky white bead, and handed it to Old Lady Shen.

"What a rich aura of heaven and earth!"

When Nan Kerui took out the bead, Shen Lao Taijun was originally squinting, and the old eyes that seemed to be faint opened suddenly, and the momentum of the whole person completely changed.

The powerful aura flashed and disappeared, and Old Taijun Shen once again returned to his previous ordinary appearance, but those eyes flashed with a strange brilliance, took the bead, and kept looking at it repeatedly.

Nan Kerui sat opposite her, and did not speak in a knowing interest, for fear of disturbing her.

After the tea effort, Shen Lao Taijun slowly regained his former calmness, held the bead in his hand and did not make any more movements, and soon even closed his eyes.

During the whole process, Nan Kerui's eyes never left her, for fear of missing something, he knew that his grandmother had come to his senses, and at this time he had entered a state of concentration.

"Maybe when grandma wakes up, there will be a breakthrough again......"

Nan Kerui couldn't help but look forward to it. "I don't know what this bead is? ”

Nan Kerui clearly knew that her grandmother had been in the realm of the Great Perfection of the physical body, and she couldn't step through that hurdle, but her grandfather's death made her have an epiphany, and she stepped into the innate divine power realm that everyone yearns for, and became one of the three masters of the empire, but she has not advanced an inch in the past ten years, and maybe today she will be able to break through again because of this mysterious bead.

Nan Kerui sent all the servants of the Women's Garden, and secretly mobilized the 'Nightmare Army' to guard outside the Women's Garden with a dragon head and a cane.

For a whole day and night, just when Nan Kerui was about to lose his life, two rays of light shot out of Shen Lao Taijun's eyes, and then returned to normal again, so fast that people almost thought it was an illusion, but it was still captured by Nan Kerui.

"Grandma, did you break through?"

Nan Kerui was awake violently, jumped up excitedly, leaned in front of Old Taijun Shen, and observed carefully.

"Huh?" Old Taijun Shen was stunned by Nan Kerui's question. "How do you know?"

"Guess what. "Nan Kerui's funny spread of hands is a rare joke.

Mrs. Shen kindly touched Nan Kerui's head, nodded with a smile, and took Nan Kerui's hand, put the bead in his hand, and sighed.

"The nine levels of innate nature, one step at a time, how can it be easy to break through. If it hadn't been for it this time, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to make any more progress even when I die. ”

"It's amazing. ”

Nan Kerui was also quite curious at this time, and spread out his palm to look carefully left and right, but he didn't find any difference. "Grandma, what the hell is this bead?"

Old Mrs. Shen shook her head.

"This thing is rare in life, although I don't know what it is, but it is certain that it contains a large amount of heaven and earth aura, which is of great help to cultivation, and grandma is absorbing some of the aura inside it to break through the barrier. ”

"I don't even know my grandmother?" Nan Kerui couldn't help but be curious.

"By the way, you don't seem to have told me yet, where did you get this from?" Old Lady Shen was also very curious, such a treasure is unique in the world.

"Here's the thing......"

Nan Kerui told Mrs. Shen in detail what happened, and even some of his guesses were not reserved.

After hearing this, Mrs. Shen was silent for a long time and sighed.

"Being able to silently reverse the opponent's sword qi is beyond the reach of my generation. ”

"Can't even grandma do it?"

As one of the three masters at the pinnacle of the empire, Nan Kerui originally thought that she might be able to do it, and she had broken through now, but now it seems that he still underestimated the strength of the mysterious person hidden in the dark.

"Maybe only those people who come out of those places can do that. Old Mrs. Shen sighed, her eyes yearning.

"Grandma, what do you mean, that person is a guardian from the Holy Land?" Nan Kerui had also heard Old Taijun Shen mention this, and he had been longing for this for a long time.

"The little aunt is from the Luo Tian Holy Land, grandma, do you think that person is with her, or is the person who secretly shot is the little aunt?" Nan Kerui couldn't help but guess. "After all, she has just come to Mizhou City, which may not be a bit too coincidental. ”

According to what Shen Lao Taijun once mentioned to him, people in those mysterious places rarely come out and walk around, unless it is to collect disciples or eradicate some demons who harm the common people.

"Perhaps. ”

When it comes to those hidden forces, Old Taijun Shen feels powerless, don't look at her esteemed status in the Great Qin Empire, and she is known as one of the three masters of the empire, but if compared with those forces, I am afraid that even the weakest one is much stronger than her, even if she breaks through now, she is still very weak.

"I don't know why I always feel that the master is the old man you saved......" Old Taijun Shen always had a feeling that the old man was a master, a master who was even more powerful than Su Xiaoxiao's aunt.

Nan Kerui also tried to recall that scene, and found that the old man did have a lot of doubts, and he was also biased towards this view.

"Hide this bead close to your body, and don't tell outsiders, even if it's a little for the time being, so as not to attract the attention of her aunt and grandmother. "Old Taijun Shen didn't want to cause Nan Kerui to be killed because of this bead, she knew better than anyone else the truth of her guilt.

Although it was speculated that the old man might have something to do with the little aunt, it was not confirmed.

Moreover, the preciousness of this bead on Nan Kerui's body is absolutely extraordinary, I am afraid that even the little aunt and grandmother may not be able to get it, if the other party knows about it, they will definitely ask for it, it will not be in vain to extinguish Nan Kerui's hope and stifle his future.

"Grandma, since this bead is useful to you, I think I'd better leave it for you. I'm still weak now, and I can't sense the aura inside...... "Nan Ke Rui plans to give that bead to his grandmother, in his opinion, the stronger Shen Lao Taijun's strength, the more stable their Nan Ke family's position in the empire will be.

And he was telling the truth, he couldn't sense the aura inside this bead, wouldn't it be a waste to leave it to him.

Before Nan Kerui could finish speaking, Old Taijun Shen had already refused with a smile.

"It's enough for you to have this heart, it's no longer useful to grandma, I just sensed it, and I can't get into that state anymore. What's more, grandma is already old, and it is enough to be able to break through again, even if there is a good panacea, the future progress is minimal, but you are different, you still have a lot of room for improvement. ”

"Put it away. Since the senior gave you this bead, it proves that you are related to it. ”

Nan Kerui and Mrs. Shen looked at each other for a while, then stared at the bead in the palm of her hand for a moment, and finally nodded seriously at Mrs. Shen, put the bead into the bag, and hid it closely.

Mrs. Shen gently stroked Nan Kerui's head, and Nan Kerui also leaned on her arms, he liked to nest in his grandmother's arms and listen to her tell stories when he was a child.

"Since the accident happened to your parents seven years ago, Zhan'er has been in a coma since he was injured, but the murderer has been hiding in the shadows, happy and happy" Shen Taijun's expression was much more depressed, and his eyes were full ......of murderous energy.

Old Mrs. Shen paused for a moment, did not continue, but changed her words.

"Do you know how many pairs of eyes are watching us orphans and widows across the empire right now, and they are all waiting to see our jokes. If it weren't for grandma breaking through the physical confinement and stepping into the innate divine realm, I'm afraid some people would have been unable to sit still. ”

Nan Kerui listened quietly all the time, and did not interject in a knowledgeable way.

"There are three years left to be the day when the 'Sword Pavilion' opens once in a hundred years, and then grandma wants you to try your luck, I have been worried that you will not be able to stimulate your own potential in such a short period of time and get the recognition of the 'Sword Pavilion', now it seems that there is no need to worry, as long as you can get a glimpse of the true meaning of this bead, it is only a matter of time before you step into the innate threshold, even if you can't be selected by the 'Sword Pavilion', it is reliable that this bead will reach their realm, or even higher. ”

"'Sword Pavilion'? could it be the 'Sword Pavilion' that you once mentioned to me, Grandma, and is as famous as Luo Tian Holy Land?" Nan Ke Rui straightened up violently, his eyes shining.

Whether it is Luo Tian Holy Land, the 'Sword Pavilion', or other hidden forces, every hundred years, the mountain gate will be opened, and genius young people under the age of fifteen from the entire Hidden Dragon Continent will be selected to teach their stunts.

Nan Kerui has been yearning for this for a long time, in fact, what he wants to enter the most is the Luo Tian Holy Land, but unfortunately there are still forty years before it opens the mountain gate, and at that time he has long exceeded the age limit.

Although you can't go to Luotian, it's a good thing if you are lucky enough to enter the 'Sword Pavilion' with the same name as it.

Old Taijun Shen saw Nan Kerui's expression in her eyes, and didn't say anything, just bowed slightly.

"I hope you can grasp these three years and try your best to get into it. It is said that that place is full of capable people, maybe they can find a way to wake up Zhan'er......" Old Lady Shen looked ashamed and guilty.

It's been seven years, and she's searched almost the entire empire, and even the entire continent, but she's still helpless about the situation of Nanke's war, she's almost desperate, if it weren't for those mysterious realms.

"Brother...... Nan Ke Rui stood up violently when he heard this, clenching his fists, at this moment, he had made up his mind that he was bound to enter the 'Sword Pavilion', no matter what the price was.
