to blame

Those from the second team who came out on vacation stayed in Qingqiu Mountain for three days. Before leaving, Qingtan came to see them off and brought everyone a pack of local specialties.

Ming Xia asked him, "Where's Qingqiu? Didn't you mean to come and see me off in person?"

"I can't wake up." Qing Tan spread her hands, "I can't help it either."

Ming Xia was surprised, "Why can't I wake up?"

A fox is a particularly vigilant creature, and even the slightest disturbance around him can make his fur all over his body blown up.Not to mention the Nine-Tailed Fox, who is born with powerful abilities.

"Teacher Wen took him to do night training," Qingtan said with a complicated expression, "running around the hill until midnight, and only fell asleep when it was almost dawn."

Ming Xia, "..."

Ming Xia and Qing Tan looked at each other for a moment, Qing Tan couldn't stand it and turned his head to the side, "Don't look at me like that, I can't do anything about it. I just said something here, take a break, and Teacher Wen was attracted After scolding, I said that I delayed the good seedlings in the clan."

Teacher Wen is the uncle of the two of them, no matter how distressed he is, he can't resist.

Well, I dare not say it again.

Nan Jiang patted Ming Xia on the shoulder, "Don't be like this, you two, it's a good thing for Qingqiu. You don't want him to grow up to be incompetent and be bullied by others, right?"

The two hard-pressed senior brothers regained their senses a little bit, "That's right."

Behind them, Tang Xun and Bai Ying squeezed in front of the second car, fighting back and forth to grab the steering wheel.Feng Ming stood by the car door, stretched out a hand to cover Li Youran's hair to protect her from getting into the car, lest she kowtow frizzily.

Li Youran has a special ability, that is, she can treat all the opposite sexes she meets as brothers.This led to her age, and she had never been taken care of by any opposite sex like a little flower.

Now there is a Feng Ming who is courteous before and after running, almost putting her in his pocket, Li Youran is simply not used to it.But there was a bit of joy in this unaccustomed, so... the female man became shy, and her face was flushed.

Nan Jiang frowned and asked Qing Tan, "What does this kid mean?"

"It's so wide?" Qing Tan also frowned, "Are you her father?"

Nanjiang, "..."

Ming Xia choked on this weird conversation and coughed, "Don't say a few words!"

Qing Tan rolled his eyes, "Feng Ming's ability is not bad, and his appearance is passable, what about his personality... I think he gets along well with that girl. Besides, we Feng Ming is rich, whoever doesn't call him rich and handsome when we go out .I advise you not to find fault with the egg.”

"Isn't it normal to ask?" Ming Xia felt that Nan Jiang was suspected of being bullied, and jumped out to refute Qing Tan, "Xiao Li is our comrade-in-arms. Besides, you told us not to be picky, and don't treat yourself as a phoenix." Call him father, why don’t you even ask? Are we still from our mother’s family?”

Feng Ming raised his head and glanced at them, with a slightly helpless expression.

Ming Xia's heart skipped a beat, and he lowered his voice and asked Qing Tan, "Can he hear it?"

Qingtan raised her eyebrows, "What do you think?"

Ming Xia, "..."

Ming Xia scratched his face in embarrassment, and dragged Nan Jiang Yiliuyan into the car.

Fortunately, they separated after going on the road, and Ming Xia's attention was quickly distracted by Nan Jiang's narration.

"Here," Nanjiang pointed to the navigation map on his phone, "to the south, about two hours away, there is a small ancient town called Xiahe Town."

Ming Xia glanced at the map, it was a place he had never heard of, "Have you been there? Is the scenery beautiful?"

Nan Jiang smiled wryly, "That's where I woke up."

Ming Xia looked at him in surprise.He remembered that Nanjiang said that his hometown was a medium-sized city in the north, and Xiahe Town was separated by more than half a national map.

Nanjiang smiled, "After the college entrance examination, I went out to play with my roommates. One of the roommates' hometown is here. He brags to us every day about how beautiful the scenery is...so they all come. Unexpectedly, the first night we arrived in the ancient town, I started I had a fever. When I had a fever, injections and medicine didn’t work, and my roommates were terrified, so they called my home.”

"Is it appropriate for you to say these things at this moment?" Ming Xia was a little worried, "Drive well."

"What's the point of saying a few words... Do you still want to hear it?"

Ming Xia still wanted to know about Nanjiang's past, so she struggled in her heart, gritted her teeth and said, "Listen!"

Nan Jiang smiled, "Both my parents work in government departments, and their identities...are also registered. When something happened to me, someone immediately contacted the relevant local agencies. It happened that Commander Du was on a business trip in this area. It was the closest, so I arranged for him to come over."

Ming Xia nodded.He also thought about it before, Nanjiang's home is not in Yaozhou, why he was arranged in the Yaozhou branch, but now he understands that it is because of Commander Du.

"Actually, my parents mentioned our family background before. But I was ignorant at the time, and I was very repulsive, so they didn't go into details." Nanjiang sighed softly, "I'm young, I don't know fate, is it You can't avoid it. By the way, our family is the descendant of Qinglong."

Ming Xia said: "You have that kind of aura... the righteousness of the Dragon Clan."

Nan Jiang smiled, "Well, you also have the characteristics of Suzaku. You are smart, dexterous, and pretty."

The topic is a little off...

"Come back to business." Ming Xia reminded him.

Nan Jiang stopped the car at the intersection and waited for the red light, stretched out one hand to hold Ming Xia, and confessed, "If Lao Du told me at that time that I could find a high-quality boyfriend after joining the job, I might not have So confused."

Ming Xia, "..."

Does the organization care about this?

Nan Jiang laughed again, with a little self-mockery in his smile, "At that time... well, I happened to be the most rebellious age, and I believed in 'my fate is up to me'. The way to go. This idea is actually correct. But when I look at this issue at my current age, I will have some different ideas.”

Ming Xia looked at him, and felt that the profile of Nan Jiang's side seemed to have a kind of calm fortitude, which was the trace left on his face by countless life-and-death battles.

"What a person wants to do and what he can do are sometimes difficult to unify. It depends on how the person chooses." Nan Jiang said: "When I was young, I would choose what I wanted to do. Now at this age... I will put Responsibility is more important."

The responsibilities that his identity and ability put on his shoulders are things that need to be borne by him.

"You did a good job." Ming Xia wanted to show that his choice was not wrong, "The meaning of this job... I learned it from you."

Nan Jiang looked at him with a smile in his eyes.

"Green light!" Ming Xia withdrew his hand.They are on their way, not a good time to get bored.

Nan Jiang started the car and continued to move forward. From the rearview mirror, Feng Ming and Li Youran's car was separated by two cars, but fortunately, the distance was not far away.

Ming Xia urged him, "Keep talking."

"Where did it go?" Nanjiang recalled for a moment, and continued: "Commander Du came to see me and stayed with me in that ancient town for a week. Take care of how I can pass the awakening period smoothly."

"He told me about the history of the Demon Suppressing Division, the battle of ten thousand demons, how to gain the power from the Qinglong's bloodline through training, and the growing tension between the human and monster races and the responsibilities of being a half-monster. "

Ming Xia couldn't think of what it would be like for a tough guy like Commander Du to drag Nan Jiang to talk about it, but since Nan Jiang said that he was in the rebellious period at that time, it was not smooth to persuade Du Commander.

Nan Jiang guessed what he was thinking, nodded and said, "My thought at that time was to be responsible to myself first, to my own ideals..."

Ming Xia interrupted him and asked curiously: "What is your ideal?"

"My childhood idol was Sherlock Holmes."

Ming Xia blinked, and felt that the work of the demon hunter still had a lot of overlap with his ideals, they both had to use their brains to fight wits and courage with enemies, whether they were overt or hidden.The part that doesn't overlap is that he needs to have a stronger fighting ability.

Nan Jiang obviously thought of it too, he said with a smile: "The difference is actually not that big... Or, I have realized my ideal from another angle."

"In the next few days, I avoided Lao Du," Nan Jiang said, "Then Lao Du said, we each take a step back, he will not press me, but I will go to the action team to participate in a basic training. "

"Should all demon hunters participate when they awaken?"

"Everyone must participate." Nanjiang nodded, "You also know that the demon hunter is a half-demon in blood, and controls power far exceeding that of ordinary humans. If he does not control it, it may cause some irreparable consequences. And awakening It is also risky in itself, improper care will cause certain harm to the body of the person concerned. Therefore, the registered half-demon family will report to the town demon division for assistance when their children are about to awaken."

"Is there no wild demon hunter family?"

Nan Jiang looked at him jokingly, "Isn't that your family?"

Ming Xia, "..."

He even forgot his home.

"If the ability to catch demons will be awakened at a certain age, then how did our family get here all these years?" Ming Xia was a little confused, "Jiu Xiao can never control all the offspring."

"Not every descendant of the half-demon will inherit the bloodline of the half-demon." Nan Jiang said: "Sometimes only one person will appear in several generations. And once there is a descendant with a particularly powerful bloodline ability, Jiuxiao finds signs of uncontrollable signs in him, he He should get rid of this person at the first time, and then continue to wait for the next successor to appear. Anyway, as long as Bai Hao doesn't call him, he will wait patiently in the Ming family's lair. He is not a grandson. He doesn't even care about a few."

Ming Xia thought of Dong Xin's grandfather.

"I checked the files of the Ming family on purpose." Nan Jiang said, "Not all the disciples of the Ming family believe in Jiuxiao's statement. He also participated in the investigation. He should have a certain understanding of your situation."

Ming Xia remembered that he could recognize Mr. Hu just by his nose, and also felt that Grandpa Ming knew more about the situation than he showed.

"They are ordinary people," Nan Jiang said with emotion. "Even if they know more than ordinary people, they are still ordinary people. They don't have the ability to contend with a big monster like Jiuxiao. They can only deal with them in the dark in their own way. You probably I don't know, Jiu Xiao has been entrenched in the Ming family for these years, and his strength is indeed constantly weakening."

Ming Xia was stunned for a moment, "Grandpa and the others did it?"

Nan Jiang nodded, "This process is very slow, so slow that Jiu Xiao didn't notice it for a long time. After Jiu Xiao woke up with your power, he became extra crazy. I think he may have noticed that Ming What did they do to him?"

"It's all from the past," Nan Jiang sighed softly, "People like Grandpa Ming will probably be very happy after receiving the news that the big monsters have left."

Ming Xia smiled slightly, "You really hit the spot. When Grandpa called, he said that when I got back, he wanted to call the whole family together for dinner and celebrate."

At first, Ming Xia thought that Grandpa Ming was just celebrating their victory in the sixth team, and that his grandson came back alive smoothly.Now that I know about the Ming family, I feel that Grandpa Ming's celebration banquet has a deeper meaning—the shackles that bind the whole family have finally been released, and it is too much.

It's worth celebrating.Maybe people from my hometown will be called to open the ancestral hall and record this good news in the family tree.

Ming Xia said to Nan Jiang, "You can go with me."

Nan Jiang paused slightly, his eyes began to light up, this invitation meant to meet his parents, right? !

"Then... when you meet your grandparents, how do you introduce me?"

Ming Xia smiled slyly, "Let's say that when the ancestral hall is opened in my hometown, our Yaozhou branch has a new daughter-in-law who can fill in."
