Chapter 73 Invitation + New Year's Eve
In one day, the citizens of Landinburg will be left behind due to the slight impact of the storm; especially during this rare holiday day, everyone who gets the holiday enjoys the pleasant afternoon sunshine - and the song is an exception. The second son of the Northard family in a black coat has not experienced the growth after the war, and still runs roughly towards the bar at the corner of the street.
Along the way, when they met familiar people, they greeted him loudly; and after seeing the singing method, these people responded to the energetic and bright smiles of the child - the older people love polite children, and the handsome children will undoubtedly make this love more than three points.
Of course, when seeing the child rushing into the bar, the stubborn old man shook his head with regret, and then hummed disdainfully at the bar sign - of course they would not blame the ignorant child; however, they expressed dissatisfaction with the bar itself; although this bar did not cause trouble for the surrounding neighbors, just looking at the obviously rebellious sign that "the devil does not cry" has already determined that it is only a matter of time to cause trouble.
If it weren't for the fact that the owner of the bar was a relative of this child, these stubborn elderly people would not have allowed such smart and sensible good children to go to that kind of place. Undoubtedly, in the eyes of these stubborn elderly people, polite singing methods are undoubtedly smart and sensible, and smart and sensible children are all good children.
"Singing method!"
After lunch, Tiger Hill, who was sitting in the bar waiting, saw the second son of the Northod family rushing into the door, immediately shouted happily and jumped up from the chair. As a person of similar age, especially when facing the young witch hunter who held the same viewpoint, he immediately became friends who could talk about everything after a brief contact. Therefore, after moving into the bar yesterday, Tiger began to look forward to the arrival of Songs.
Although Tiger had already prepared a room for the bar's basement training ground, Tiger did not first move into his room because he was following Gran Hill. It was not until Yeqi decided to start the next step of training that Tiger bid farewell to his adoptive father and lived in the bar - in the underground training ground. Tiger not only found the room with his name, but also found a room sign with the name of the Gefa next to his room; almost immediately, Tiger became excited.
Compared with the younger brothers and sisters who have been following the elder sister's head, Tiger is undoubtedly more willing to be with friends of this age; as for looking for the elder sister's head? Think about the electric arc that appeared in unknown time, Tiger's scalp was numb; it was not the numbness of the scalp as described, but the real numbness of the scalp caused by the stimulation of the electric current.
"How is your father?"
Tiger had already found out why his friend arrived late; although the appearance of his friend had confirmed that the patriarch of the Northod family was not seriously injured, out of concern, Tiger could not help but ask.
"It's still very weak and takes a long time to cultivate; however, there is no life danger!"
Gefa recounted the diagnosis of his uncle and the oldest elder of the Northod family. Such a result also completely let go of his last concern after the Holy See retreated; especially Gefa's brothers and the patriarch's wife who had been waiting for a day and a night, cried with joy.
Of course, the weak can only lie on the bed and rest. Norther naturally can no longer preside over the entire Norther family; the legal heir Linda took over the entire Norther family with the approval of Fletcher and others and temporarily managed the father - although his heart would not change if he loved his family, he saw that his sister had started to be busy again, and the two more uncles who had just joined in it, Gefa, the second son of the Norther family immediately began to feel aching all over his body, which was even more painful than the continuous impact he had been hit in the sandbag array dozens of times.
Therefore, I discovered the highest-ranking existence of the Northod family and looked at him. Immediately, Gefa responded - the teacher asked me to go to the bar after the family affairs were over. Under such a high-sounding excuse, Gefa threw out the Northod family's villa in a flash. Although he was assigned a task before leaving, he looked at the two uncles who were so busy that they had to spare their sleep time, and those cousins who were trained to be worse than death, Gefa felt a burst of gratitude.
Although I only had a few days of contact, Gefa already had a considerable understanding of his uncle - he was full of energy and loved his younger generation; however, this kind of love was obviously different because of gender; for female younger generations, the oldest existence in the Northod family would chat with the other party with a smile, and would not get angry even if it was offended. When the younger generation encountered strength problems, he would give him guidance without hesitation; but he was merciless to the younger generation as a male, not only harsh, but also punished him.
In the words of this only Sunlight-level powerhouse in the Northod family, "As a man of the Northod family, if he cannot protect his mother and sister, how can he be called the descendant of the Sea God?" It is precisely because of this sentence that apart from some official duties, all male members of the Northod family who are thirteen years old have been pulled into the training camp; and the abundant energy of this elder made these people feel hellishly from the beginning of opening their eyes in the morning until they went to bed.
When I thought of the cousin who was famous for his naughtyness in the family, he was punished to stand up all night because he was not serious in training, and after the training remained unchanged the next day, Songfa still couldn't help but chill. After all, before becoming Ye Qi's disciple, he was the most naughty person in the entire Northod family.
"Hey, why are your face so bad suddenly?" Tiger looked at the singing style with his changing face and couldn't help but say, "Otherwise, our competition will be cancelled today?"
The after-meal competition between demon hunters under the age of eighteen is a tradition of demon hunters; although Gefa and Tiger are not formal demon hunters, and they are not even trainees, but as Ye Qi's disciples and adopted children, they are destined to maintain such a tradition.
"It's okay, I'll send a family invitation to the teacher first!" As a disciple of Ye Qi, I undoubtedly liked the song method even more. I swung my fist at Tiger and ran upstairs quickly; and shouted while running: "In a while, I will let you see my true strength!"
"Tsk, you don't use a holy weapon, but you are just about the same level as my younger brothers and sisters. At most, you can only be more than that!" Tiger, who stood against the back of the chair, couldn't help but curl his lips, deliberately showing a disdainful expression: "Did you forget that we competed ten times with empty hands. You only won three times!"
"So, I will definitely win again this time!"
"I hope so!"
Listening to the answers passed from the building, Tiger spoke relaxedly, but his expression was very solemn - no one knew the strength of this newly recognized friend better than him; from the first time, the first defeat in less than thirty seconds, the last three minutes after the third time, and even half of the final victory or defeat; every progress surprised Tiger, who was the opponent; after all, the song method was to fight him naked, and although he was not very good at fighting with bare hands. However, after the training of the Gran Hill system, he was definitely much better than the song method.
Moreover, Tiger knew very well that if Gefa picked up the sacred sword, even if he used the gun he was best at, he would have no chance of winning—the fallen black-clothed priests in the Northod family manor were the best proof.
However, this did not make Tiger lose his fighting spirit, but instead made him look forward to it even more. He looked forward to his future growth - although it was only a short day. But he already understood that the skills he learned from the instructor bartender were enough to make him face his friends holding the holy artifact!
It’s so lucky to have such a friend to catch up with him!
With a smile, Tiger took the lead in walking towards the underground training ground.
...
Dong, Dong, Dong!
After passing through the second floor of the bar where people were crawling because of drunkenness, Gefa waved at the only sober little man and rushed straight to the third floor. He knocked on Ye Qi's door.
"Come in!"
"teacher!"
The singing method that came in with sound saluted respectfully to his teacher. He put the invitations from the family on the table - he hated the singing method that was bound by various etiquettes and did not do anything perfunctory to Ye Qi as in the family, but was regular. If the etiquette teacher of the singing method saw it, he would definitely stare out his eyes; because, even when facing his father, the singing method did not really respect from the heart as he is now.
“I did a good job the day before yesterday!”
After just glanced at the invitation, Ye Qi turned his head to look at his disciples and couldn't help but nodded with a smile - He had already known through the small retelling of the small man; with the same strength, except for the compensation of experience, Ye Qi did not think he could do better than the other party; therefore, Ye Qi felt satisfied from the bottom of his heart for this disciple who was just accepted because of the alliance with the other party's family.
When facing the disciple's mistakes, you need to point them out; when facing the disciple's excellence, you don't have to be stingy with praise - this is what a teacher should do. Although Ye Qi may not be a competent teacher in other aspects, he is quite qualified in encouraging students, just like Old John who was the same as he was to him back then.
"Then, those people from the Holy See are too weak!"
Obviously, in the face of the teacher's praise, the second son of the Northod family was a little shy and even embarrassed. Looking at the disciple's slightly red cheeks, Ye Qi couldn't help but shake his head and said, "Don't underestimate yourself. No one in the Inquisition is a weak person!"
"Every level from becoming an ordinary deacon in black to a priest in black, and then becoming a priest with a knife has been strictly screened within the Holy See, without any tricks! And you who can escape from the siege of these people is enough to show that your strength has reached a new level!"
"Most of these are the meteors' credit, and I am not that strong myself!"
"Whether the power of the holy weapon is, the most important thing is to look at the holder!" Looking at the disciple who was obviously unconfident, Ye Qi pointed to the meteor on the other party's waist, pointed to the Yanmo Sword on his waist, and asked slowly: "The Yanmo Sword is obviously one level higher than the meteor, but do you think that after taking the Yanmo Sword, you can be stronger than you holding the meteor?"
When Gefa faced his teacher's question, he lowered his head and thought seriously for a while, then slowly shook his head. Although the strength of the Yanmo Sword is beyond doubt, compared with the long sword slashing like the Yanmo Sword, he is undoubtedly better at using the flexibility of the thin sword to sting more strangely. He even instinctively thought of several extremely feasible self-held with meteors against himself holding the Yanmo Sword.
"So. You have to believe in the weapon in your hand! Because it is the best proof of your strength!" Ye Qi made an objective evaluation of his disciples: "As for his own strength? What needs long-term tempering! Whether it is the skills of using weapons or the body of using skills, it requires long-term tempering! However, fortunately, you have a very good apostle talent. As long as you continue to develop and utilize it, it is not too difficult to reach the Yuehui level! At that time, you will feel like you are reborn!"
"If your energy allows, you can learn a new technique with Tiger and others recently; although it is too profound and you still can't meet the standards, the most basic ones can already be of great help to you!"
"Yes, teacher!"
Looking at the teacher who turned his eyes back on the invitation, Gefa bowed respectfully and replied; then slowly and gently exited the teacher's room - as for whether his teacher agreed to go to the family to attend the banquet a week later, Gefa didn't care about it; just as he could not control the family's thoughts, he could not control the thoughts of his teacher; therefore, the family asked him to bring the invitations, and he brought them; as for the others, it naturally depends on his teacher's thoughts.
Moreover, compared to completing the family's tasks, he likes to compete with Tiger and other teenagers in the underground training ground, dancing the sword wrapped in rubber, or simply pointing the gun at the target and shooting to the fullest.
...
The moment Gefa closed the door, Ye Qi looked at the invitation and frowned. The invitation from the Northod family was undoubtedly an invitation that inherited the specifications of the great nobles in the dark era. It was not only exquisite in workmanship that ordinary people could imagine, but just the materials for making the invitation were enough to be surprising.
The blue invitation overall expresses the identity of the descendant of the Northod family's sea god, and a faint fragrance comes from it. Anyone with a little knowledge will know that this is the natural fragrance produced in the sacs of the giant objects in the deep sea. It is not only refreshing, but also the auxiliary product that dark wizards like the most when meditating. However, it is definitely not easy to face the deep sea overlord that seeks life-related sacs in his body. Apart from the Northod family, which has the title of the sea god, it is extremely difficult for other individuals or families to hunt down the deep sea overlord, even if they want to find that deep sea overlord.
Of course, this is not the real reason why Ye Qi frowned - even in the presence of luxury, except for items that can be linked to strength growth, Ye Qi will basically not be seen by him; the most important thing is the signatures under the invitation: Gail Northard, and Moreti.
Although the former made strategic mistakes and was so weak that he could not get out of bed, as the head of the Northod family, he still represented the Northod family before he chose the trusted head of the family. This was undoubtedly the highest government. The latter represented the highest government. On the night when Sars Port was invaded by pirates, the highest government played an unlucky role, but now it can appear on this invitation, and as one of the invitations, plus Molietti's special identity in the highest government; it is obvious that the highest government paid a considerable price for the "mistake" that night in exchange for the Northod family's understanding.
Ye Qi was not interested in this transaction that was completely within the political category from the bottom of his heart and did not want to participate. Looking at this invitation, even an idiot could understand the meaning of it. It was nothing more than that the two parties had reached a certain or several agreements and would "join" him or her "cooperate"; after all, as the chairman of the Bay Area Witch Hunter Branch, he not only had an identity, but also had strength, and was really the most suitable candidate for "joining" and "cooperation".
However, whether it is "joining a partner" or "cooperating", Ye Qi cannot raise any interest now. Compared to Ye Qi, who thinks that maintaining the status quo is the best, such "joining a partner" and "cooperation" is undoubtedly tasteless and even a little disgusting.
The most suitable party for the witch hunter is definitely not included in the so-called banquets - with false faces, maintaining one demeanor, talking with each other with a clever conversation, and completing shocking transactions in private. Such banquets are definitely not noisy and yelling witch hunters can tolerate; but as the president of the Bay Area witch hunter branch, he must attend as the witch hunter union.
Looking at the invitation in his hand, Ye Qi pressed the radio button the next moment, and immediately a small man's slightly weak voice came: "Ye, if there is no urgent matter for 100,000 yuan, please contact me in two days. I need to go back to my room and discuss life with my bed!"
"There is a task that is urgent for me and must be you!" With a smile, Ye Qi said slowly: "Of course, besides you, Mori will also accompany you!"
