Views:

Nangong Wuyue and Nangong Sanba were sitting on the sofa in the center of the living room, facing Hao Ren and other four people. The scene was like a trial scene, and the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.

However, Hao Ren felt that the biggest source of embarrassment was Nangong Sanba Nalafeng's name...

"Laugh if you want to laugh," Nangong Sanba sighed, of course he could see the expressions on the faces of the people opposite him, except for Yzaks, who was an unknown visitor from another world, even Vivienne was the same. With a delicate face, "It's not a day or two since I want to change this name."

"Is this your real name?" Hao Ren euphemistically expressed his surprise, "Uh, in fact, the name is not important, you can search the Internet to see how many people named Wang Dahammer and Li Goudan are living well. …though I didn't expect a witcher to be called that name."

In fact, he didn't say the whole thing: just these two brothers and sisters, listen to the name of Nangong Wuyue, if you want to be literary and artistic, you should be elegant and elegant, so why did you name it Nangong Sanba when it was your brother's turn? He is still a demon hunter—in Hao Ren's eyes, this profession already belonged to the boss gang of the evil forces, and as we all know, every villain group must have a lot of powerful names, but now this person in front of him is called San Eight, this is enough to prove that he is not a good demon hunter—just as a demon king named Wang Daquan must not be a good demon hunter. "The name was given by my mother." Nangong Wuyue glanced at her brother with a helpless expression on her face, "She doesn't know much about the people on the ground, so she simply named us brothers and sisters according to the month of birth. My brother March 8 I was born on the 1st, so I named it Nangong Sanba, and I was born in mid-May of the second year, and the name Nangong Wuyue Fifteen is not easy to pronounce, so it is called Nangong Wuyue for short... Uh, it's that simple."

Hao Ren glanced at Nangong Sanba: "Actually... Sanba is not a derogatory term. But it's a bit strange to put it on the head of the elders. It's not difficult to change the name now, you can change it too."

Nangong Sanba's face straightened immediately: "The body, hair, and skin are the parents of the parents. The name of the family is passed down to the ancestors, how can you change it casually? I thought changing the name was just an idea, but I never took it seriously!"

Hao Ren stared at the suddenly serious demon hunter in amazement, and really wanted to slap his thigh to be more serious with him: As a demon hunter, can't you have some words that fit your status? At this time, if you jump up and swing your warhammer and say "Holy Light, this enemy is worth fighting", is it more suitable for people than these few classical Chinese sentences? The black and white kitten was strolling through the living room. When it heard someone calling itself, it stopped and meowed. It looked at Nangong Sanba questioningly, as if to confirm whether this was the new tenant. Vivienne beckoned the kitten over, hugged it slowly in her arms, and looked up at Nangong Wuyue: "Is it because your brother doesn't have the full power of a demon hunter because of his mixed blood?"

Nangong Sanba is a half-baked guy. This has been proven since the first meeting in England. At first, Vivienne thought he was an ordinary person who had acquired the knowledge of a witcher by accident. Now it seemed that he did have the blood of a witcher, but it was only a mixed blood.

"Bloodline is one aspect, and another reason is that the inheritance from my father's generation of demon hunters in our family is incomplete," Nangong Wuyue no longer concealed his family background, and simply opened up the conversation, "You should know , Demon hunters and humans are not actually the same race, they are only partially similar. The lifespan of demon hunters is almost as long as that of many other species, so normal demon hunters are intermarried within the ethnic group. The younger generation of demon hunters Received the stimulation and infusion of the power of parents from birth, began to receive training from parents when they were twelve years old, and tried to fight against weaker evil spirits or other demons independently, and left their parents when they were sixteen years old. It is normal for senior demon hunters to receive three to five years of guidance and be introduced to contact other demon hunters. Only at this time can they really integrate into this group and be recognized and accepted by their peers. Next, it was still like this until the generation of my grandparents.

"But something went wrong in my father's generation: my grandparents died unexpectedly when he was thirteen years old, and in the same year, there was a strange organized counterattack in Asia, and the local demon hunter organization was in chaos. When I was just a child, I lost contact with the witcher group before I was introduced to other seniors."

Vivienne nodded thoughtfully: "Thirteen years old... I just started combat training, and I haven't become a stubborn old man. Maybe the stubborn prejudice against aliens is not so serious. After all, demon hunters are also creatures with thoughts and feelings. , is subject to emotion."

Nangong Wuyue spread her hands: "That's the situation. Since my father's generation, our family has lost contact with orthodox demon hunters. My father met my mother after wandering for several years, and then 'something' happened. , and they are together."

As soon as Nangong Wuyue opened the chatter box, she poured out all the past events of her family. Needless to say, she talked a lot anyway. This probably wanted to prove her frankness to offset her previous confession to other people. Although Hao Ren didn't care about concealing the situation, Nangong Wuyue seemed to be quite concerned about it.

And through Nangong Wuyue's narration, Vivienne finally figured out how the pair of unprecedented couples came together, and at the same time figured out what happened to Nangong Sanba, a half-baked demon hunter: he was not only Mixed blood, and didn't even learn all the skills!

"The inheritance from my father's generation has been broken," Nangong Sanba smiled awkwardly, "Of course he couldn't go to other demon hunters after he married my mother. Discovered by a demon hunter or a different species. I learned some half-baked techniques from my dad, and the only thing I learned more completely is the runes and these—”

As Nangong Sanba said, he lifted off the large black windbreaker, revealing the small silver crossbow underneath and some strange gadgets such as throwing knives, medicine bottles, wooden sticks, etc.: "Exorcism tools, the only thing my dad learned I can make these things, but I am not familiar with how to use them. Many exorcism props need to be driven by a specific spirit. I have never learned it, and my dad doesn’t know how to teach it.”

"What's your attitude towards aliens?" Nangong Wuyue felt that this question must be asked head-on.

"I would say that I am a peace lover and hope for the unity of all races in the world, it must be too false," Nangong Sanba spread his hands, "I can only say that I have no hostility towards most aliens, unless they take the initiative to trouble me."

Hao Ren still had a lot of things he didn't understand about this maverick demon hunter: "Do you have any connections with other demon hunters? Do you always walk alone? They don't know that there is such a special guy as you?"

"Of course I'm alone. To be honest, I don't have much interest in those orthodox demon hunters. I know that once my situation is exposed, they will definitely make trouble for me." Nangong Sanba nodded, "The structure of demon hunters Relatively loose, although they are more closely related than the aliens, they only maintain a minimum form of organization for the convenience of jointly strangling "evil". When there is no joint action, demon hunters often act alone, just like walking alone It’s like a hunter, so a guy like me who is alone will not attract their attention, even if I meet them occasionally, it will pass after a few words, and I will say that I am patrolling in another area, and I am rushing to perform the task.” Said , Nangong Sanba smiled slightly: "They never doubt 'one of their own'."

Hao Ren nodded. He had no doubts, but for some reason, he always felt that the Nangong brothers and sisters still had something to say.

Vivienne seemed to think of it: "Then you two are running around... It seems that you don't just like to travel, do you?"
