"It's about Linlin," Zong Lu said.
"About Linlin?" Teng Qingshan turned his head and exchanged a glance with Li Jun, who was walking over. Then, he took the stack of papers and said, "Uncle Zong, you can go ahead with your work. We will look through the information slowly. "
Both Teng Qingshan and Li Jun attached great importance to their daughter, Honglin.
*****
Two days later, in the East Flower Garden of the Xing Yi Sect in the Great Yan Mountain:
"Father!" "Mother!"
Honglin, who was dressed in tight clothes, dashed into the courtyard of her family's house. She shouted from afar with an excited smile on her face. Although the ground was covered with snow, Honglin was still very fast when she ran. She directly rushed into the courtyard.
"Linlin, you only know your father and mother. You don't even call them grandpa, "Teng Yongfan, who had a lot of silver hair on his head, said with a smile. Yuan Lan looked at her granddaughter dotingly and said, "Linlin, I haven't seen you for more than a month. Yes, you have grown even more beautiful. I wonder which young man will be lucky enough to marry our Linlin. "
"Grandpa, Grandma," Honglin immediately greeted them sweetly.
Teng Yongfan and Yuan Lan nodded with smiles on their faces.
"Father," Teng Qingshan said with a smile, "Linlin has a sweetheart now."
"Oh? Who is it? "Teng Yongfan and Yuan Lan were shocked and looked at Honglin in surprise.
Honglin touched her nose and looked at Teng Qingshan. "Father, did my younger brother tell you?"
"I also know that the lucky young man is called Fan Anran. Linlin, am I right? " Teng Qingshan said with a smile. Li Jun, who was at the side, even smiled and said, "I heard that my daughter and this Fan Anran went on a boat in broad daylight, hand in hand, and toured the lake together."
Honglin's face turned red with embarrassment.
"Hand in hand?" Teng Yongfan was shocked.
In the Land of the Nine Prefectures, men and women rarely held hands. Even when they were in the Gui Yuan Sect, Teng Qingshan and Zhuge Qing had never held hands. Not to mention holding hands in broad daylight.
The significance of this was extraordinary.
"Where is this Fan Anran from?" Teng Yongfan couldn't help but ask.
"An Ran is a disciple of the Gui Yuan Sect. He is now a Commandant of the Black Armoured Corps," Honglin said honestly.
Teng Qingshan and Li Jun looked at each other and felt that something was wrong.
He even called her 'An Ran'?
This form of address was too intimate.
"Linlin." Teng Qingshan said with a smile, "Your mother and I, as well as your grandparents, all want to meet this young man called Fan Anran. When are you going to bring him home? "
"Bring it home?" Honglin blinked.
"Yes, it will be the annual sacrifice in two days. After the yearly sacrifice. You can bring Fan Anran to the house. Let your mother and I take a good look. " Teng Qingshan smiled and said, "If this Fan Anran really wants to marry my daughter, then he would have to go through me. Otherwise, I will not agree. I have raised my daughter for almost twenty years. "
Honglin giggled.
She knew her father's temper very well. He didn't care about the rich or the poor. He only cared about the person's character.
"Yes, okay." Honglin nodded. "After the new year, I will bring him here to meet Father and Mother. Father and Mother, you have to teach him a lesson. "
…
At night, Teng Qingshan and Li Jun had already gone to bed.
"Qingshan, according to the information we've gathered, this Fan Anran guy is still fine, but he's not that bad. However, the identity of his father is uncertain. "
"Yes. His father only came to Yong 'an County fifteen years ago. According to our investigation, he used to be a mounted bandit. We can't find any other information. "
The Land of the Nine Prefectures was too chaotic. Even with the power of the Xing Yi Sect, it was difficult to investigate the affairs of a destroyed mounted bandit gang fifteen years ago.
"It's fine if his father's background is not clean. Let's see how this young man called Fan Anran is. "Teng Qingshan said," If this Fan Anran passes our test, he will be very good. It will be good for him to be with Linlin. Linlin has already reached the marriageable age. "" Yes.
"Yes, at her age, I would have married you long ago, Qingshan."
Teng Qingshan and his wife obviously attached great importance to their daughter's marriage.
*****
The annual sacrifice passed quickly. Honglin left the Xing Yi Sect and went to Yong 'an County.
…
Yong 'an County. On the second floor of a teahouse, a plain-looking young man with bright eyes was sitting opposite Honglin by the window. At this time of day, there were very few customers who came to drink tea. There were only three to five customers on the second floor.
"What?" The young man was shocked. "Go to your house?"
"Yes. My father and mother want to meet you." Honglin nodded.
The young man was stunned. He blinked his eyes and said, "You … your father … I'm going to meet your father?" The young man's breathing became rapid. On the other side, Honglin couldn't help but laugh. She knew that her sweetheart, Fan Anran, admired Teng Qingshan very much. In fact, the majority of the younger generation in the Land of the Nine Prefectures had grown up listening to Teng Qingshan's legends.
"Don't worry, An Ran. My father won't eat you." Honglin covered her mouth and laughed.
Phew.
Fan Anran let out a long breath. "Linlin, your father. I'm going to see your father … This, this. Although I know that your father is Senior Teng Qingshan, I have never seen him and I don't feel anything. However, the thought of seeing him. I feel nervous. I'm even more nervous than when I was in the Gui Yuan Sect, during the centurion selection. "
"Look at your useless appearance. In front of my father, you have to have some manliness. My father despises weak people the most, "Honglin said deliberately.
Fan Anran nodded. "Don't worry. I won't embarrass you in front of your father."
"Hmph, you have to remember … If you can't get past my father, don't even think about marrying me," Honglin said straightforwardly.
"Ah —" Fan Anran had a bitter look on his face.
Seeing this, Honglin couldn't help but laugh.
While this pair of lovers were flirting, another person who was drinking tea at the side frowned and quickly left. Only Honglin and Fan Anran were left on the second floor.
"Get ready. We will leave the day after tomorrow," Honglin decided.
"Okay." Fan Anran nodded.
"What do you have to prepare to see my father? Let's go. Let's go and see what we can buy, "Honglin said as she stood up.
…
This pair of young people prepared some gifts and arrived at the Xing Yi Sect in the Great Yan Mountain on the 21st day of the first month.
In the living room:
Teng Qingshan, Li Jun, Honglin, and Fan Anran, who had brought many gifts, were sitting at the same table and eating lunch.
"Anran." Teng Qingshan looked at this young man with a smile. "Why are you only eating plain rice? You don't need me to help you eat, right? "
Fan Anran's face was slightly red. Beads of sweat could be seen on his forehead and nose. It was obvious that he was extremely nervous to sit at the same table as Teng Qingshan.
"No need, no need." Fan Anran quickly picked up some food for himself.
"Father," Honglin glared at Teng Qingshan and said, "This is Anran's first time. He can't let go."
Teng Qingshan smiled and exchanged glances with Li Jun, who was sitting beside him.
After their initial contact, both husband and wife were satisfied with this young man named Fan Anran.
After lunch …
"Anran, come with me." Teng Qingshan stood up and walked towards the door.
Fan Anran froze.
"Hurry up and go," Honglin said in a low voice and pushed him. Fan Anran woke up with a start and hastily left with Teng Qingshan. Only Li Jun and Honglin were left in the living room.
"Mother, is everything okay?" Honglin looked at Li Jun.
"It seems good now." Li Jun smiled and nodded. "Later, your father will personally talk to Fan Anran. If he can get past your father … then the matter between you two will be settled. However, if he can't get past your father, then I can't do anything. "
Honglin snorted and said, "Anran will definitely get past my father."
*****
"Creak!"
Teng Qingshan pushed open the door of the study room and walked in. He walked towards the armchair at the side and sat down. Fan Anran then entered the study room. Teng Qingshan's study room was obviously more spacious. It was about four to five Zhang wide. After Fan Anran entered, he seemed slightly reserved.
"Anran," Teng Qingshan said.
"Uncle," Fan Anran answered respectfully.
"What weapon did you use in the Gui Yuan Sect?" Teng Qingshan asked.
"I used a spear," Fan Anran said hastily.
Teng Qingshan smiled and waved his right hand outside. The branch of a big tree in the courtyard was immediately broken. The messy branches were all cut off. Then, a wooden stick flew into the study room and landed in Teng Qingshan's hand.
"Show me your most powerful spear art. This place is good enough, right? "Teng Qingshan smiled and threw the wooden stick over.
Fan Anran reached out his hand and caught it. He took a deep breath and cupped his hands. "Uncle, please guide me."
After he finished speaking, Fan Anran's entire aura changed. For a moment, he was as sharp as a sword. With a "pa" sound, Fan Anran began to display his spear art. Fan Anran's spear art was extremely fast. Every move was as fierce as a wild wolf biting. For a moment, the entire study room was filled with the shadows of the spear.
"Yes." Teng Qingshan nodded slightly.
One could see a person's character from his spear art. Fan Anran was definitely a person with a firm heart. Otherwise, his spear art wouldn't be so imposing.
Only by putting one's heart could one practice a good spear art.
Similarly, one could also see part of a person's heart from his spear art.
"Hmm?" Teng Qingshan frowned slightly.
As the number one spear artist in the Land of the Nine Prefectures, Teng Qingshan felt an obscure ruthlessness from Fan Anran's spear art.
"Is there a ruthlessness hidden in the depths of Fan Anran's heart? Could it be that he was tortured when he was young? "Teng Qingshan's heart stirred.
"Anran, use your most powerful technique." Teng Qingshan's voice suddenly became a little strange. It faintly carried a strange fluctuation. In his previous life, Teng Qingshan was already somewhat proficient in hypnosis. In this life, his' Spirit 'was extremely powerful, so he understood the principles of hypnosis even better. To hypnotize a person who hadn't even reached the Innate Realm …
It was too easy!
One should know that the God of Heaven of the God of Heaven Mountain could even affect the eighty thousand soldiers of Hong Tian City who were unafraid of death with just his voice.
Even if Teng Qingshan wasn't as powerful as that God of Heaven, hypnotizing Fan Anran was a piece of cake.
For the sake of his daughter, Teng Qingshan obviously had to carefully investigate Fan Anran's background!
