Princess Nami was confused. She said in a daze, "Grandpa, I don't understand. Since he can't say it, why do you say that he can be taught? You're too hypocritical at your age."
Iza Kawatani laughed, "Is there any granddaughter who talks to her grandpa like this?"
"Grandpa, you're still talking. I was scared to death just now. Like I said, why did you call us to your training room for no reason? Sure enough, there's something. "
Iza Kawatani touched Princess Nami's head and said, "Let's talk in my room. Oh, Nami, what's in your hand?"
Xiao Bing and Nami had bought the authentic work of Tang Bohu. Because Xiao Bing came in first, it was in Nami's hand. Nami was so nervous that she forgot about it. Now that Iza Kawatani reminded her, Nami immediately said with a smile, "This is a gift for grandpa. It's the authentic work of Tang Bohu."
"Oh?" Iza Kawatani took the scroll with great interest and said with a smile, "Let's go to my room. It's not easy to find the authentic work of the famous Tang Bohu in Cathaysian State …"
"Of course. Now you know how good your granddaughter is. Let's see if you still talk about your granddaughter."
Iza Kawatani froze for a moment and then laughed.
The three of them walked out of the practice room together. Xiao Bing kept a faint smile on his face and said nothing. Although Iza Kawatani was about to be a hundred years old, in Xiao Bing's opinion, Iza Kawatani was more shrewd than anyone else. When Xiao Bing entered the room just now, he not only wanted to test his kung fu, but also to see if Xiao Bing had hidden his strength. If Xiao Bing's willpower was not strong enough, he would have been seen through and it would have been difficult for him to walk out of the Kokyo alive today.
Iza Kawatani walked in front and Princess Nami was always half a step behind him. Xiao Bing was half a step behind Princess Nami. Iza Kawatani's pace was like stepping on a bell and drum, with a magical sense of rhythm, which made Princess Nami involuntarily follow his rhythm. Although Xiao Bing could completely get out of this rhythm, he also deliberately fell into this rhythm in order not to expose himself. This was also for the sake of acting.
After passing through this corridor and the hall, he walked into the opposite corridor on the left. The corridor wasn't long, and it felt like a normal corridor. There were a few rooms on both sides, and it didn't feel as gloomy as the corridor that led to the training room.
Finally, when they reached the innermost room, Iza Kawatani stopped, gently pushed the door open and walked in. Xiao Bing and Nami followed. The room was large, spacious and bright. There was a big bed, solid wood furniture, tables and chairs, a tea table, and some words hanging on the wall. Apart from that, there was basically nothing else. It was very clean and simple.
Iza Kawatani asked Xiao Bing and Nami to sit down. Then he unfolded the calligraphy bought by Nami and hung it on the wall.
His eyes fell on the calligraphy scroll, and his eyes sparkled. Suddenly, his eyes fell on the seal. Then he turned his head to look at his granddaughter and asked, "Did you buy this calligraphy?"
Nami did not know if there was something wrong with it. Was it really a fake? Did Aoki Ichiro make a mistake?
Nami said with some guilt, "Yes … Yes."
There was a hint of a smile in Iza Kawatani's eyes. He said, "Is there a master next to you?"
Hearing Iza Kawatani's words, Nami breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Grandpa, you're right. Aoki Ichiro told me that this piece of calligraphy was real, so I bought it at a low price. It's not that I don't want to spend money. I just heard that Tang Bohu seems to be very famous in Cathaysian State. "
"Very famous." Iza Kawatani sighed, "And this calligraphy is also real, but most people should not be able to see it. Aoki Ichiro, I didn't expect you to be so accomplished in this aspect. It's really rare."
Xiao Bing hurriedly said, "Senior, you flatter me. I was just lucky."
Iza Kawatani also sat down opposite them. He looked at Xiao Bing with his deep eyes and said, "This is not something that can be achieved by luck alone. Young man, do you also study calligraphy?"
Xiao Bing said, "A little."
"Yes." Iza Kawatani nodded and said, "If you are not very good at it, it can only mean that your IQ is far higher than that of ordinary people."
Xiao Bing said with a wry smile, "You can say that."
"Well, it's very good for a young man to be like you. I don't like people who are too humble, nor do I like people who are too proud." Iza Kawatani's eyes then fell on the long knife that Xiao Bing carried with him. When entering the Imperial Palace, the long knife must be unloaded, but when entering the Hall of Martial Gods, he did not need to. This might be because Iza Kawatani was too confident in himself, so he did not care whether Xiao Bing brought a weapon or not. No matter whether Xiao Bing brought a weapon or not, it would not be a threat to Iza Kawatani.
Iza Kawatani asked, "You use a knife?"
"Yes."
Iza Kawatani asked again, "Do you think the knife technique is the same as the sword technique?"
Xiao Bing thought for a moment and said, "There are similarities and differences."
"Very good. Go to my practice room and practice for a while. I will come to you later. I want to talk to my granddaughter first. "
Xiao Bing got up and Princess Nami did not stop him this time. Although Princess Nami did not regard Xiao Bing as a relative, it seemed that it was really not convenient for Iza Kawatani to talk to her granddaughter when Xiao Bing was present.
Xiao Bing got up and walked out of Iza Kawatani's room. At the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief. It was said that an old man who did not die was a thief. Xiao Bing felt that this sentence was too reasonable. Iza Kawatani would see through almost every aspect. Xiao Bing was afraid that he would accidentally reveal a flaw in a small detail, and then all his efforts would be in vain.
Fortunately, he stayed in the Imperial Palace tonight instead of the Hall of Martial Gods. Otherwise, he might encounter trouble when he went in and out of the Hall of Martial Gods to look for God's blood. Although the Imperial Palace was heavily guarded, Xiao Bing might be able to go in and out. But there was such an old monster living in the Hall of Martial Gods, which was really a big trouble.
Xiao Bing walked out of the practice room unconsciously. Thinking that the old man asked him to practice in the practice room while waiting for him, Xiao Bing could not help but be a little curious. Was Iza Kawatani really so obsessed with martial arts? Not only was he obsessed with martial arts, but he also thought that others were also obsessed with martial arts. Generally speaking, when someone came to your home, even if it was inconvenient for this person to hear your words, you should find a place for him to drink tea or rest. Why would you arrange for him to practice?
Xiao Bing also felt that although this old man was really old, he should not be a lunatic from his speech and behavior. There might be other reasons.
After Xiao Bing left, Princess Nami immediately ran to sit next to Iza Kawatani. She kissed Iza Kawatani on the face and then said with a smile, "Grandpa, Nami misses you so much."
Iza Kawatani smiled slightly and said, "Then you should come to see me often … Alas, I am nearly 100 years old. I don't know how far I can see you. Now my biggest hope is to see you get married and have children one day, and then hold a child for me to see."
Nami said with some embarrassment, "Grandpa's body is so strong that I can live for another 100 years."
Iza Kawatani laughed and said, "Silly girl, if I live for another 100 years, won't I be an old monster? Unless I can cultivate to … But it's easier said than done. "
The Immortal Realm was even higher than Mount Everest. So far, no one had ever reached it, at least no one had actually reached it. That kind of legend did not count. This realm was also Iza Kawatani's lifelong pursuit.
But the more powerful he was, the more difficult it was for Iza Kawatani to improve even a little bit.
Iza Kawatani suddenly said, "That Aoki Ichiro, you seem to be interested in him …"
Nami did not deny it at all. She said with a little shyness, "Yes, he is a different man. In this life, I will not marry anyone except him. It's a pity that he hasn't agreed yet."
Iza Kawatani said with some surprise, "You want to pursue him? And he still doesn't agree? "
"Yes, grandpa, don't you think it's strange? So many men used to pester me like toads, but I didn't even bother to look at them. But I just don't know what kind of magic he has, I fell in love with him deeply."
Nami looked happy and sweet, "Although he doesn't agree, I believe that one day he will be mine. Grandpa, if that day comes, can you help Nami? Nami wants to marry this man. "
Iza Kawatani asked, "Now you are the adopted granddaughter of His Majesty the Mikado, and also a member of the royal family. What if the royal family doesn't want you to marry an ordinary warrior?"
Nami said stubbornly, "I have to make my own decisions. If the royal family doesn't agree, I will not be a princess. If not, I will elope with my man."
Iza Kawatani shook his head and said, "Elope? That's just your immature idea. According to your temperament and the fact that you have been spoiled since you were a child, you will not be able to stand it in a few days if you don't have the servants in the manor to serve you. "
Princess Nami also knew this. She suddenly pouted and said unwillingly, "Then what should I do? Grandpa, you don't agree, do you? "
Iza Kawatani's eyes showed that he was thinking, and then a ray of light bloomed in his eyes. He said in an inexplicable tone, "That's not necessarily true. If he is really a sensible young man, a young man who can stand the test, then it's okay for me to help him. With my help, the royal family's opinion is not a big deal …"
Speaking of this, Iza Kawatani's eyes showed that he was confident and domineering from the bottom of his heart!
