Chapter 34: A Family of Three

The news of the Black Blade Mantis killing two first-order martial artists quickly spread throughout the City Hunter Bar.

Many people were curious about which second-order martial artist would get this bounty in the end.

One million, it will increase in a few days, even if the corpse of the Black Blade Mantis is not as valuable as the second-order demon beast, but such a generous bounty alone is enough to make more powerful hunters excited.

Xia Fan listened to these discussions and silently left the Hunter's Bar.

That's when he realized the importance of teaming up.

In the face of this extremely strong first-order demon beast, even with his current strength, he may not be his opponent.

It would be nice to have two more teammates of equal strength to him.

But where are teammates so easy to find?

He hadn't been a city hunter for long, and few people trusted him.

Of course, he doesn't trust anyone either.

If you don't trust each other, it's better not to team up.

Thinking of this, he sighed, his father's wounded revenge, he probably won't be able to avenge it personally.

After all, now that school starts, there are only fifteen days left, and in these fifteen days, the Black Edge Mantis may not appear.

……

Back home.

Mother Zhao Rou was busy cooking in the kitchen, while Xia Feng was doing some housework.

Now no matter how late Xia Fan comes home, the husband and wife have to wait for Xia Fan to eat together.

In Zhao Rou's words, that is, her son is about to go to college, and it is likely that he will not be able to come back once in half a year or even a year.

I don't know when we will have to have a meal together in the future, but now we must cherish it.

Xia Fan also tried his best to meet his parents' small wishes, and took time out to go home every day.

Besides.

There is also a floor where a family of three has not been thoroughly lit.

You must know that going to college is not a child's house, not only do you often have to perform various tasks, but you will even go to the battlefield when necessary.

Death in battle is a common occurrence in such situations.

Of course, Xia Feng and his wife didn't want this kind of thing to happen to Xia Fan.

But even if they don't think about this possibility, they are still very worried in their hearts.

This concern has translated into the fact that no matter who is in the family now, they cherish the time they can spend together.

"Dad, you put down the matter at hand first, I have something to tell you."

Xia Fan saw that Xia Feng was sorting out the mop seriously, and pulled him aside with a smile.

"What's the matter?"

Xia Feng wore an apron, quite the bearing of a family man, and after hearing Xia Fan's words, he wiped his hands on the apron, and then asked curiously.

Xia Fan didn't answer immediately, but put a box in Xia Feng's hand.

"The Restoration Pill can allow you to repair your foundation and become a reserve martial artist."

Hearing this, Xia Feng's pupils shrank suddenly, and the next moment, a trace of chagrin flashed in his eyes.

As the pillar of the family, he repeatedly spent so much money on his son, which made him blame himself very much.

"Didn't I tell you not to buy such an expensive thing? Why are you always disobedient, kid? ”

"How expensive can it be? Dad, you have recovered your foundation, and if you eat some body forging pills or something in the future, you may have the hope of becoming a first-order martial artist.

I have the ability to make money now, and I don't care about it.

And this family can't be left to me, right? You have become a first-order martial artist, even if something happens to me in the future, you have the ability to take care of your mother.

Don't look at the people outside now who are polite to our family, but if something happens to me and you are all ordinary people, then they can bully you in minutes. ”

Xia Fan's expression was serious.

Xia Feng's eyes were slightly red.

Xia Fan put the possibility of "accident" on the bright side, and he felt very uncomfortable.

"In this world, you have to rely on yourself, and the respect you get by knowing great people is not stable.

What's more, Zhanzhou is the land of four wars, and there are more than several times more demon beasts than Nancheng, so I may not be able to come back completely......"

Hearing this, Xia Feng couldn't listen to it anymore, so he took out the Recovery Pill and swallowed it without saying a word.

"Xiaofan, don't say it, don't say anything about accidents in the future, I told you your fortune when I was a child, saying that you can live to ninety-eight!"

Xia Fan laughed when he heard this, but he was a little speechless in his heart.

According to scientific predictions, it is very easy for a warrior to live to be 100 years old, and to say that he will live to 98 is not a curse on him?

But it's no wonder that fortune tellers say that.

After all, a fortune teller knows what martial arts are, and in their eyes, living to ninety-eight is a cow's pen.

Moreover, martial arts have only been developed for decades, and there has not yet been that kind of super-old martial artist.

At this time, Zhao Rou in the kitchen seemed to hear something and walked out quickly.

"What are you father and son muttering, I seem to have heard something?"

Hearing this, Xia Fan replied: "I told my dad about the mantis demon beast, and yesterday the mantis demon beast appeared again, and the two first-order martial artists had an accident!" ”

"That's right...... This demon beast is really damned, it would be nice if a powerful warrior would clean it up one day. ”

Zhao Rou showed a rare trace of hatred on her face.

That demon beast hurt her husband like that, can she not hate it?

"There will be powerful warriors going." Xia Fan said with a smile.

Zhao Rou nodded when she heard this, and went back to the kitchen again.

……

After a while, the family of three sat down to eat together, and Zhao Rou chatted about the interesting things that happened in the community from time to time, and the smiles on her face continued.

Xia Feng had a worried look on his face, obviously what Xia Fan had just said to him had affected his emotions.

At this moment, Zhao Rou seemed to suddenly think of something, put down the chopsticks in her hand and instructed Xia Fan: "You are going to school in half a month, have you bought a ticket?" ”

Xia Fan was stunned when he heard this, and then shook his head.

But after thinking about it carefully, he should indeed buy a ticket, Zhanzhou is in the west of China, far away from Nancheng.

If you take the train, it is estimated that it will take a day, and the fare may be around 10,000 yuan.

Yes, ten thousand, but there's a reason why train fares are so expensive.

In this era, if you want to go far away, the means of transportation are very simple, except for trains or trains.

Civil aircraft are absolutely not good, decades ago when the monster first appeared, there were more than a dozen cases of civilian aircraft being attacked by flying monsters.

The result was a crash and a death.

Since then, civil aircraft have been outlawed.

As for cars, that's not okay, there are not many coherent roads in the situation where monsters are everywhere now, and the security of cars is not strong enough, so it is easy to have accidents outside.

Once humans thought of building underground tunnels between cities.

But I found that there were also monsters infested in the depths of the earth.

As a last resort, a huge railway system connecting all the cities was built.

The route planning of these railways was completed by the high-level leaders of Huaguo for several years, and almost all the areas infested by high-level demon beasts were avoided.

But you will still encounter some low-level demon beasts from time to time.

For this reason, each train must be equipped with a strong escort team, in addition to firearms, the escort team also needs at least one martial artist of the third order or above.

The high cost of escorts, combined with the limited frequency of trains, makes train tickets very expensive.

But it will be much cheaper for the warrior to take the train.

Like a first-order martial artist, the ticket price can be discounted by 5%.

If it's a third-order martial artist, you can even sit for free.

Because the official hopes that these warriors can help when the train encounters an accident.

For a long time, Xia Fan's official identity was only a reserve martial artist.

Now it's time to certify as a first-order martial artist.

With the certificate of a first-order martial artist, it will be much more convenient to do anything when you go out.
