Chapter 29: Why Does This Sound Familiar? (Ask for Recommendation Votes)
"What? My second uncle is here, then I'm sure I'll see you!" After a brief moment of consternation, Ji An quickly nodded in response.
How could he not see it? That was his second uncle.
In a family like Ji An, the time that his family is with him can be imagined to be short, his father and mother are fine, they can see him many times during winter and summer vacations, and they can accompany him for two or three long vacations a year when they are busy. His third uncle and third aunt have rarely been out of Yuanzhou in recent years, especially after he was born, only he, the second uncle, in Ji An's memory, the two have met only a handful of times.
It was that the whole family gathered for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and when they took the family photo, they didn't see his second uncle appear.
The few memories he had came, he also came and went.
And Ji An was also a little afraid of him when he was a child, because he was burly, his eyes were like knives, and he swished out when he looked at people, and he always had a straight face, fierce, with a fierce aura.
But when he was a little older, Ji An was not afraid of him, but admired him a little.
Not everyone can become a war correspondent.
It was not a battlefield for ordinary human beings, nor was it a hot weapon confrontation war that broke out among monks because of national struggles, but an alliance of human monks and demon monks, and an alliance of monsters and demons with a huge number of monsters and demons, because of the violent contrast between races, ideas, and beliefs.
The older generation of the Ji family fell on such a battlefield.
There are a large number of monk legions, what about the centralized protection of the monk war department? Vast monsters and demons rushed over, countless corrosive demonic qi spread over, the magic power spells were exhausted, and the big names among the human monks who had been squeezed out of their true essence were still dying.
The Xuhua Empire paid a very tragic price to win this difficult war of resistance, and now most of the monsters and demons have been pressed out of the border line, and there are only sporadic remnants in the country.
Even so, until now, the battlefield of anti-demon is still full of dangers, as the first of the ten fierce places!
Moreover, there is no opportunity on the battlefield, if you don't live or die, after so many years, the battlefield of resistance to demons is still the same as before, leaving them with only endless pain and despair!
Those who leave the battlefield are afraid, they fear that if they leave that terrible place, they will be washed away by the merciless river of time, and the fears and worries that should be deep in their hearts. In order to keep them in mind the cruelty of the anti-demon battlefield at all times, and to make the people in the Xuhua Empire who have never been on the battlefield realize the seriousness of the matter, they are prepared for danger in times of peace, and war correspondents came into being.
It was in this context that more than 30 years ago, Ji Tianfang was ruthlessly expelled from the army because he made some major mistake, gave up his supposed privileged life, took a few simple storage bags, and resolutely stepped on the battlefield of anti-demon and became an independent and glorious war correspondent.
In this regard, the family could only persuade him to change his mind from the initial kindness, and slowly changed to understanding and support for him.
It's just that Ji An, like his third uncle's two children, after gradually becoming sensible, he also developed a curiosity when he understood.
What mistakes did the second uncle make back then, so that it was irreparable and he had to be expelled from the army?
Ji An was taken away by a strange monk with a family crest engraved on it, and entered a place where he could not see any difference from ordinary residential houses on the outside, and as soon as they met, the second uncle gave him a big bear hug.
"Eldest nephew, you don't want to stay in Yuanzhou, why are you running to this place?" Second uncle Ji Tianfang hugged Ji An fiercely with his strong and powerful arms, and patted Ji An's back vigorously, almost knocking out Ji An's lungs.
"Ahem, ahem, second uncle, why do you have so much strength, can't you pay a little attention, you slapped me like this when I was a child, and I still haven't been beaten by my mother for so many years?" Ji An couldn't help but complain to him.
Ji Tianfang didn't care, put his arms back to his side, smiled, and let go of Ji An: "Okay, dare to take care of me when you grow up?" and dare to threaten me with your mother and my sister-in-law, okay, boy." ”
The two of them didn't talk about this topic any further, the simple greetings ended here, Ji Tianfang and Ji An sat opposite each other, there was a row of jade boxes on the table, Ji Tianfang pointed the opening of the box at Ji An, stretched out his hand to open them one by one, and introduced them in turn: " You're going to go to the Taoist Academy to practice a month or two early, and I don't have anything good to give you here, so I'll bring back so many tatters in total, these are two Xuanbing pills, you remember to melt the water suit when you want to practice the first three layers of qi, a bottle of Guan Xianglu here is for you to clean your body after detoxification, and the instructions are written on the bottle, and there are ......"
Ji An didn't say that he had all these things, nor did he say that these things were really tattered things according to his living standard, Ji An just smiled, looked at the second uncle fixedly, and after the second uncle finished talking about them all, he asked him softly: "Second uncle, did you come back this time because you felt tired and wanted to rest?" Second uncle, some time ago, grandparents were asking, when do you plan to come back?"
Probably living in blood and death for a long time, suddenly the family's sentence "When will you come back" is like a knife stuck in the heart, the knife is not sharp, but the heart is dull and painful.
Ji Tian was stunned, and then scolded with a smile: "Stinky boy, don't worry about the affairs of adults." ”
This sounds familiar......
Ji An remembered that he had said something similar to his cousin Ouyang Dong not long ago, this is true, feng shui takes turns.
"By the way, in fact, I came back this time to find you," Ji Tianfang didn't mention the matter of Niu Kelian in front of Ji An, and Ji An also pretended to be stupid and didn't ask, only to see that his face gradually became serious, and he said in a solemn tone, "Big nephew, I have a very important task here that you need you to help me complete." ”
"Okay second uncle, no problem second uncle. Ji An didn't ask, and agreed to come down.
"I need you to complete a lot of tasks, the most important of which is that you help me take care of a person, this person has a very important strategic value for me, I don't trust other people very much, and they can't help, plus for some reason, the other family members are not suitable, I think it's only you. Nephew, I want to emphasize to you again, this person is really very important to me! So if you agree, you have to treat it as a profession, and make a place, and that's probably ......."
Ji An thought about it, our second uncle is a perennial demon fighting battlefield, and people like him said that they would give him a very important task, so just by imagining, Ji An's mind appeared several occupations similar to the captain of the martial arts team behind enemy lines, the head of the young anti-demon group, and the captain of the demon hunter team.
Ji An's eyes automatically burst out with a warm and yearning light, blazing.
"Kindergarten principal. ”
"Ah???h
Ji An looked at him puzzled, some suspecting that he had misheard: "Second uncle, what did you say?" I didn't hear clearly, you say it again." ”
"Kindergarten principal, anyway, just help me take care of the children. ”
Hah!Kindergarten Principal?
I'm sorry, it's too windy today, I didn't hear clearly, or you can come back another day, second uncle.
