Hunter x Hunter: The Ubiquitous Dragon Life

Ding Ling~

The door was pushed open, and the bells on the porch made a crisp crashing sound. In the slightly dim interior, sunlight rushed in from the wide open door, casting a bright spot on the ground. In the corner at the end of the room, standing Behind the counter, the woman who was doing the accounting raised her head and greeted her appropriately with a commercial smile that could not be picked out at all.

"welcome."

"Hi, Miranda."

The figure of the man who walked in was slightly blurred in the light, and he couldn't see the real face, only his broad shoulders were as calm as a mountain. A pair of clear and bright pupils shone in the shadows, and a clear but majestic voice echoed in the room.

Wei Wei's joy flashed through Miranda's eyes, and the smile deepened, with hidden joy and expectation.

"Brother Jin, you are here, sit down." She greeted warmly and reservedly, her eyes fell on the large cloth bag on Jin's shoulder, "What did you bring today?"

"It's Shadow Panther." Jin threw the cloth bag on the counter, pulled out the chair and sat down.

"It's the shadow leopard again? Brother Jin, you are really amazing. Few of the mercenaries around here have this ability. What else can I say about those guys who said you were lucky to hunt them last time."

He opened his eyes slightly, and the worry didn't appear on his face. After seeing Jin's body unscathed, surprise and admiration flashed across Miranda's face one after another, with a hint of admiration, as if with honor. , there was a hint of pride in her tone.

Jin said a few words of embarrassment and modesty. After handing over the deal with Miranda and stuffing the purse into his arms, he said as if he suddenly remembered.

"By the way, Miranda, I'm leaving. Today should be the last time I come to you. Take care of you in the future."

"Are you leaving?" Miranda's hand that was cleaning up the fur stopped, she raised her head suddenly, a smile condensed on her lips, and her eyes flashed with surprise and a trace of panic.

"Yeah, it was promised to stay here for a month, it's time to go." Jin replied with a look of course.

"Can't you stay? Brother Jin doesn't like it here?" Miranda was a little flustered.

"Well~, but what I have to do is almost over." Jin's tone was a little embarrassed, and there was a trace of confusion on his face that he couldn't understand the intentions of others.

"Really?" Miranda smiled reluctantly. She was always a little absent-minded in the subsequent conversation. After sitting for a while, Jin Zai got up and left.

"It's time for me to go, Miranda, goodbye."

Miranda raised her head sharply, and the man in front of him smiled as warm and bright as usual. Even the farewell speech was the same as his greeting every day before leaving. His back was straight and broad, his steps were steady and high-spirited. Turning back once, she walked neatly and neatly. Miranda liked this gesture very much, it made her feel very manly and heroic, and she liked to watch him leave like this, but today's posture, when it fell into her eyes, was abrupt. dazzling.

The door was pushed open and closed, the sunlight poured in and disappeared, the interior returned to darkness again, and Miranda's smile disappeared from her face. She stood there for a long time in a daze, and then she seemed determined, with bright red lips. Pressing it tight, she gathered her hair, tidied it up a little, locked the door, and left the pub.

"Aunt Mary, do you have time now?"

Mary, who was chatting with a group of aunties in a small shop at the entrance of the village, heard a warm greeting and turned around to look at the situation.

"Huh? Miranda? It's you, what, are you looking for me for something?"

"Yes, what I said to me last time, I want to talk to you, Aunt Mary, is it convenient for you?" Miranda smiled generously.

"What happened last time?" Aunt Mary was a little stunned, and looked at Miranda suspiciously, smelling a touch of gossip, and rolling her eyes, she answered excitedly.

"Convenient, why is it inconvenient, if you have anything, just tell me, it's not convenient to talk here, go to my house."

"Aunt Lao is here." Miranda pushed the boat smoothly.

-------------------------------------------------- ---

"Brother Jin, are you at home?"

Along with the banging sound, Aunt Mary's loud voice pierced into Cellulo's ear. Aunt Li's throat also had a tendency to grow louder than ever. She hurriedly agreed, and Cellulu hurried to open the door.

"Wait a minute, Aunt Mary, I'll open the door right now."

"Oh, it's you Lulu. Where's your uncle, is he at home? I have something to look for."

It turned out to be Aunt Mary who was outside the door. When she saw her, she greeted her in a pre-emptive manner. She pushed Celluloid away, pulled her arm, and her feet spontaneously rushed into the room, her eyes not forgetting to look east. Looking west, talking to himself as if at home, naturally and casually.

Seeing that Aunt Mary seemed to be on the verge of moving, she had a tendency to want to take something to see after the tour. Celluloid hurriedly turned her back on the guest, turned her hand over, grabbed Mary's arm, and took it to the wooden table by the window, mouthing. Followed by greetings.

"Aunt Mary, sit here, is Auntie looking for Uncle? He went to the lake to fetch water just now, and he should be back soon. I'll pour you a drink and moisten your throat first."

After she said that, Aunt Mary calmed down a bit, and after taking a sip of the tea brought by celluloid, her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Hey, what kind of water is this? It's delicious." As she said that, she gulped down the whole glass of water in one gulp.

"It's made from thin vanilla and golden-flowered red tung, the fragrance is very refreshing, it is refreshing to drink, and it has the effect of calming the mind."

Cellulu took the kettle and poured another glass for Mary before explaining it in detail.

"This tastes really good. You are a clever idea. Those things are also common in the mountains and fields, but no one has ever thought of using them to soak them in water." Aunt Mary smacked her lips, a little surprised.

"What, it's just messing around. If Aunt Mary likes it, I'll send you some dry products later. Just brew it with boiling water." Seeing that Mary was a little jealous, Cellulu said quickly.

"Hehe, I'm so sorry, thank you eldest niece."

Aunt Mary pretended to shirk and accepted it happily. After sitting for a while, Mary rolled her eyes and asked.

"Lulu, have you ever thought about having an aunt?"

"Auntie?" Cellulu froze for a moment, her voice raised suspiciously.

"Yeah, you also know that your uncle is alone and widowed, and you will always marry and leave him in the future, and he will be left alone. It's not very pitiful, and an aunt can take care of you. When you grow up, there will always be some problems. It's not convenient for your uncle to mention it."

As soon as she opened her mouth, Aunt Mary instantly felt as if she had been beaten with chicken blood, full of energy, and her face was flushed, just like a salesman selling fake and shoddy products, exuding an unusual enthusiasm, lobbying hard.

"Also, you also know the person I want to introduce, that is Miranda from the tavern. She is beautiful, has a good temper, and is smart and capable. She is definitely a good player at home and abroad. I like your niece, come here in the future, it won't be very difficult for you to get along, how about it, what do you think?"

"Miss Miranda?"

Whispering, Cellulu thought of that sophisticated but enthusiastic woman. She was very reserved in dealing with her uncle, but every now and then, she could see the seemingly non-existent affection towards her. It's also quite good. It's not to please my uncle. It seems that my uncle likes Miranda a little bit. Otherwise, why would he go to the pub every day? suitable, there is absolutely no reason to object.

"If uncle likes it, I have no objection, and Miss Miranda is really good."

From now on, it will be the life of three people, no, maybe soon she will have many younger cousins ​​or cousins. With a wife and children, an uncle will officially have his own home, Cellulu thought with a smile. As he continued, there was a hint of grief and confusion in a certain corner of his heart, very light and superficial, and he resisted and did not go into depth, and this feeling also disappeared.

"Hehe, I knew that you are a considerate child, and Miranda will be able to get along well with you in the future."

Aunt Mary seemed to be relieved. The sister-in-law problem has always been one of the big problems. Although this Lulu is not a sister-in-law, the situation is not much worse. With her nod, Mary's confidence has increased, and she seems to see herself. The scene of drinking the Xie media wine of the two, holding a big red envelope and smiling from ear to ear.

The door opened at this time, Jin walked in, and saw Mary at a glance, a little surprised.

"Huh? Aunt Mary? You're here too. Are you here for the lease?"

"Hehe, it's not urgent, Brother Jin, I'm here to tell you a good thing, a great thing."

Aunt Mary had a smile on her face. In Jin's eyes, she looked like a wolf-grandmother, a very humble person. She stuck her head out with wild intuition, reminding him that what happened next might not be good for him.

Sure enough, after listening to Mary's "good thing", Jin Zai was stunned for five seconds before he realized it.

"Aunt Mary, I didn't think about it, and we're leaving soon, Miranda and I are not suitable."

"It's okay, Miranda also told me this point, you don't want to stay, she is willing to sell the pub and go with you."

Thinking that Jin was embarrassed, and Miranda had mentioned this matter to her, Mary added with a smile to make him feel relieved, but Cellulu heard Jin's true meaning from that sentence. He also looked at him in surprise.

Somewhat surprised by Miranda's determination, for a moment, Jin Cai found another reason.

"Ah? But•••, she really left her hometown after following me, and I've achieved nothing now, and I'll have a lot of sleepovers in the future. It's better for her to run a tavern now than to follow me."

"Oh, since you know this problem, then you don't have to worry about it. You are not afraid that a man will be poor for a while, but he is afraid that a man will not be enlightened. Besides, marrying a chicken follows a chicken and a dog follows a dog. We women, once you marry a man, as long as your husband If you can hurt people, the future child will be promising, what else can you ask for, treat her a little bit better, even if you are down for a while, it is always better than a widow showing her face to seek a life."

Aunt Mary immediately blocked her back in a few words. Although the words were plain, they were true, and Cellulu nodded secretly.

Jin was choked for a while, but he could only say that men's logic is always different from women's, so he immediately held on to a very reasonable reason for his decision.

"I don't have any prospects now. It's when I'm working hard. I don't have the heart to start a family now."

"Begging a wife has nothing to do with your asking for money. Why, you have to have a career before you can start a family, what's the reason!"

Mary rolled her eyes in disapproval, but seeing that Jin's righteous expression of 'stunned green' was completely ignorant of women, Mary decided to persuade him from a different angle.

"Brother Jin, I also know that men always want to do big things, but starting a family is not contradictory. Besides, look at a few men who do big things without the support of women, not to mention how much they can help in big things. , but taking care of your life, speaking from your heart, and the beauty of these and those, but those men who don't have a family can't understand it."

Although she has reached the age where she doesn't want to avoid meat and vegetables, she saw Cellulu with her eyes wide open and she was listening carefully. In the end, Mary didn't have the nerve to say it too clearly in front of a child. I understand what she means.

Cellulu was at a loss for a while, and then suddenly came to her senses. She felt embarrassed, and it was obviously inappropriate to continue listening. She stood up, picked up the kettle on the table, and went out.

"The water is gone, I'll go and boil some more water."

Jin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He naturally understood, and he didn't expect that Mary would persuade him in this regard, but now he can only hold on to the end. Lulu has already left anyway, so some words can only be confused first. Help uncle and me through this difficult time, Jin apologized to Lulu in his heart with some shame.

"Aunt Mary, I don't think it makes any difference whether it makes a family or not. Besides, you said to take care of my life and so on. It's not inconvenient for Lulu to be with me now."

"Ah? Can this niece be the same as my wife?"

Mary was really frightened by Jin's seemingly innocent and righteous face, she immediately slapped the table and said loudly.

"I think it's the same." Jin bit to the end.

Mary felt that this man really needed a good brainwashing. She looked at Jin pitifully and decided to establish a correct concept of a wife for him.

"Look, your wife can take care of the house for you and keep you comfortable every day."

Jin didn't answer, but just looked around, and Mary glanced around. In fact, just when she came in, she found that the house was absolutely clean, spotless, and the outside was warm and comfortable. It was several times better than her own home. , well, this is not good, change, Mary will keep trying.

"My wife can do laundry and cook for you, sew and mend your clothes, and she will ask for warmth when it's hot and cold. Always pay attention to your physical changes. A niece doesn't have such a delicate mind."

"Usually Lulu prepares meals and drinks. I think her craftsmanship is much better than the restaurants here. There are also several types of herbal teas at home, each with different effects. She said that it corresponds to different seasons and physical conditions. As for clothing."

As Jin said, he took an underwear from his bed and handed it over.

Mary took it suspiciously, but when she saw it, she was quite surprised. This dress was handmade, but the stitches were fine, the patterns were fine, and the tailoring was neat. It was far from being shoddy at home, but looked like it had been seen before. The clothes on the nobles are as delicate.

This niece is too capable. Aunt Mary is both admiring and anxious. It seems that she can't find any other differences between this niece and her wife. She is finally anxious, anyway, Lulu is not there. , shouted without hesitation.

"Oh, even if your niece is better than most wives, can she have **** with you? Can she give birth to a child for you? Besides, even though she is a relative, she is alone, and people will gossip after a long time. what."

This is a bit vulgar. Jin never thought that the other party would say such a thing. At this moment, the door was also opened. Jin and Mary turned back at the same time. Li and Jin also stiffened. One was guilty of saying that someone was caught behind their backs, and the other was flustered when he used his niece as a shield to be pierced. people ignore.

After being quiet for a while, Cellulo spoke very calmly.

"The color of the tea soup is very pale. I want to get some dry products to brew it."

She walked to the cabinet very calmly, took out a bunch of dried and tangled hay-like things, walked to the door very calmly, and spoke very calmly.

"You guys continue."

The remaining two were also released from petrification, trying to explain something embarrassingly.

"Ouch, this, this, eldest niece, I didn't mean that."

"Lulu, it wasn't the one just now..."

The door closed immediately.

Mary was thick-skinned after all. After a while, she recovered. She shyly apologized before returning to the topic without giving up.

"Brother Jin, I'm sorry, what I said just now went too far, but you are not too young, even if you haven't experienced this kind of thing, you will still need it, Miranda is a good woman, you two are always together. It's a hundred times stronger than if you endure it or go out and find a dirty woman."

"She's a good woman, but I really didn't think about having anything to do with Miranda." Jin replied helplessly.

After being put off by Jin for a long time, Mary gradually came to the aftertaste. At this time, after hearing his words, she suddenly understood, she exclaimed in shock.

"You have one reason on the left and one reason on the right. You said that you don't want to marry for a long time? Then why did you provoke Miranda in the first place? She was moved by it, so she said that she didn't have such an idea. She looked at a sincere person, why? That's right, Miranda wants to sell the pub and live with you."

"I didn't." Jin felt that he was wronged.

"Hmph, what else is there to say now, I'm blind, Miranda is really pitiful, to meet a heartless person like you."

Mary stood up angrily, dropped the words, and slammed the door away, walking away without even listening to what Cellulu wanted to keep and send tea.

"Lulu, Aunt Mary said that I'm going to provoke Miranda, what's the matter?" Staring at the door that was shaken by Mary's ruthless hand, Jin laid his head on the table, his face Inexplicably, she complained to Cellulu.

"Uncle, you•••well, forget it, it's nothing." She opened and closed her lips for a long time, but Celluloid didn't say anything, just shook her head.

"You don't even think Aunt Mary is right."

Judging from Cellulu's expression, how could Jin not understand what she meant, but maybe he was embarrassed to criticize him face to face, so he couldn't bear it, but he was still a little unconvinced and didn't understand.

"Character problem, it's not all your fault, uncle, it's just that it can easily be misunderstood by some people."

Cellulu thought about it for a while, and then reluctantly comforted her.

Warm, enthusiastic and cheerful people are always easy to attract people, but many people forget that the sun does not emit heat because it knows you need it, but it is just a kind of nature, burning on its own, taking care of itself To shine, but not for anyone.

-------------------------------------------------- --

"Uncle, before you set off, shave your beard. It's getting longer and longer. Don't you feel uncomfortable when you eat?"

After watching Jin wake up, he came out of the bathroom with a refreshing body, but the beard on his face was still dense, almost covering most of his face. Cellulu stopped the luggage in her hand and finally couldn't help but say .

"Well, in fact, I have scraped it before, but this knife is not very easy to use."

Jin touched his chin, and was also very distressed. The beard on his face was indeed exaggerated, but blood dripped every time he shaves, and over time he had to give up.

How could he still remember that he used an electric razor instead of a knife before. Even in the world of women, the yin and yang declined, and the secretion of androgen was not strong. After staying for half a year, the beard hardly grew. Like now, it is simply a spring breeze, and it is growing like crazy.

"Then I'll shave it for you. Speaking of which, I don't even know what you look like, uncle." After thinking about it, Cellulu volunteered.

"Huh? I'll do it myself."

"Uncle, aren't you good at shaving?"

Ignoring Jin who refused, Cellulu grabbed a knife from the kitchen and approached him.

The knife in Cellulu's hand shone with a cold light, and she stared at her beard with high interest, which made Jin suddenly feel very conscious of the fish on the chopping board, and Cellulu was the blade of 'sharpening the knife to the pig and sheep'. , shrinking his neck uneasily, he asked.

"Lulu, do you really know how to shave?

"I think I should shave."

Cellulu pondered for a while, and gave an answer that sounded extremely unreliable.

Jin swallowed his saliva secretly, then glanced at the cold knife again, and wanted to say that he should do it himself, but he was afraid that it would hurt his niece's enthusiasm. Thinking about it, as soon as he closed his eyes, he shouted in a rather death-like temperament.

"Come on, I'm ready."

"Uncle, why are you nervous? Are you afraid that I will cut your flesh?" Seeing Jin's reaction, Cellulu was both amused and angry.

Jin, who closed his eyes, only felt a faint fragrance rushing toward his face. A soft and cool little hand touched his cheek, and his cold fingertips touched the skin, itching. There was a rustling sound in his ear, and his cheek With a light follow-up, the skin was directly exposed to the air, blowing cool, and the rustling beard and hair brushed from time to time on the cheeks.

It seems that this girl is not talking nonsense, this level is really good, after calming down, Jin opened his eyes and saw that Cellulu was very close to him, so close that their breaths seemed to blend together, so close that he could. Seeing that her eyes were drooping, her curled eyelashes fluttered like a small fan, and Jin's heart suddenly seemed to be crawling with a small bug, scratching and scratching, crisp and itchy. .

Jin was a little overwhelmed, and he began to look for words.

"Lulu, your shave is really good."

"kindness."

Cellulu replied, but apparently she had no plans to continue. Jin thought about it for a while, and had to find another topic.

"Lulu, do you want to prepare more dry food? I'll go get some game later."

"Uncle, it's up to you to decide." Cellulu replied.

"Er • Do you have anything to eat? Rabbit, or duck? Or pheasant." Jin tried hard to imagine.

"Uncle, don't worry so much, you can eat whatever you hit."

How could Cellulu know what Jin was doing? Although Jin felt that she was staring at herself, the atmosphere was very strange, but in fact her whole mind was on the edge of the knife, and her eyes never left for a moment. Injuring him, but in order to answer Jin's question, she could only temporarily slow down the movements of her hands. After being interrupted a few times, Cellulu stopped her hands and pouted her mouth slightly unhappily. You disturbed me' accusing expression and looked at Kim complainingly.

"Uncle, don't talk to me anymore. I'll be distracted. It's not good to cut you."

"Okay, I won't say it."

Jin touched his nose and stopped wisely, but he didn't say anything to distract himself. Jin was a little uneasy again, his eyes started to wander around, but because Celluloid was standing about the same height as when he was sitting down, so Jin's eyes were basically still focused on her.

Looking at it this way, Jin Cai suddenly realized that she was really just a child. Although she always gave him the impression of being independent, her body couldn't deceive anyone. Lulu's body was obviously not yet developed.

Well, it looks like he's going to ask her to eat more in the future. He's too thin, and with pure intentions to worry, he looks all the way from the corner of Cellulo's slightly pursed pale pink mouth. Below is a small and delicate chin, and then a slender chin. The white neck, the next is the chest•••Well, this avoidance skips over, and then goes down•••

Hmm, Lulu's waist is so thin that it seems like it can be broken with a single grip. He should be able to fit both of his hands together, right? Looking at the small waist wrapped in the thin cloth, Jin didn't realize that his current thinking was already thinking about his own niece.

However, even if he didn't realize it now, when Jin stretched out his hands like a ghost, and wrapped his hands around the girl's waist, he was satisfied that his guess was correct, and even squeezed it impulsively. When he came, Jin's face suddenly hurt, but Cellulu screamed and laughed, and her body twisted violently.

"Ah! It's so itchy! Uncle, let go! It's so itchy!"

The word "uncle" hit Jin's head like a stone. He was shocked, and quickly withdrew his hand as if he had been scalded. Thinking of what he had just thought, he could not wait to slap himself, what was he doing? , molesting his niece?

"Uncle, hate it! Why are you tickling me all of a sudden? Look, you scratched your face!"

After Cellulu laughed, her cheeks were flushed, and she said angrily.

"Sorry, sorry, it wasn't intentional, I didn't expect you to be so carefree."

Jin said with a smile, apologizing repeatedly, how dare he say that he was hot-headed just now, and he didn't know what he was doing.

"How can anyone scratch someone else's itch when they're being shaved, really, uncle, you're not joking like this, right? Look, there's still half of your face left, do you want to continue shaving? Or are you going to wear a Yin Yang Hu?"

Cellulu asked in a high-spirited manner with her hands on her hips.

"Scratch, of course continue to scrape!" Jin Kuang nodded affirmatively.

After the episode just now, Jin, who was frightened into a cold sweat by himself, finally looked at his nose and heart, and his heart was like still water.

"It's just a shave, but it turns corruption into magic. I didn't expect you to be young and handsome, uncle. It's a far cry from the original."

After a long time, Cellulu put down her hand, her face full of surprise, tsk tsk, and handed over a mirror.

"Am I that bad before? Still rotten and magical."

Touching his smooth chin, Jin, who was looking left and right, heard the words, a black line appeared on his forehead, stood up, and was about to go to the bathroom to clean up, but he was startled when his eyes swept away.

"Miranda, when did you come? Why didn't you come in by the window?

Cellulo turned her head in surprise, Miranda bit her lip, her face pale, she forced a smile.

"Brother Jin, can you come out?"

"Er, of course there's no problem." Thinking of the previous rejection, Jin agreed with some embarrassment.

Miranda was at the front and Jin was at the back. The two went to the forest one after the other, and stood by the lake. Miranda turned her back to Jin, and seeing that she didn't speak, Jin didn't dare to speak first. For a time, only The flowing voice of the wind, just when Jin couldn't hold his breath and was about to apologize first, Miranda turned around, her expression had returned to normal, her smile was reserved and dignified.

"Brother Jin, I originally wanted to ask you again and fight for myself, but it seems that I don't need it now."

"Ah? Really, Miranda, you deserve a better man."

After Jin was slightly stunned, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother Jin, you don't need to say some comforting words." Miranda smiled slightly, but there was a hint of bitterness, and she said after a moment.

"Brother Jin, before we say goodbye, can you agree to my last request? Please don't run away, okay?"

"Ah? Good." Jin glanced at Miranda blankly before agreeing in confusion.

Miranda stepped forward and threw a slap across the face, loud and crisp. Looking at Jin, who seemed to be a little silly with his mouth open, she smiled.

"Brother Jin, if you don't care about a woman in the future, don't be so kind to her. Since you are a heartless person, why should people mistake them for being affectionate? It's cruel."

Jin blankly watched Miranda straighten the hem of his clothes, and then walked away, thinking about it for a while, and then he touched his cheek and looked up at the sky, completely depressed.

The forced smile faded from Miranda's face after leaving Kim, and she walked in a trance.

"Miss Miranda, are you all right?

She raised her head, Jin's niece looked at her with a worried face, remembering the look in Jin's eyes she saw outside the window just now, Miranda suddenly didn't want to lose face in front of her, armed with an expression on her face, she smiled.

"You care, I'm fine."

Lulu just nodded, as if she didn't know what to say, Miranda hurried past her, took a few steps, then turned back,

“You and your uncle••”

After a pause, Miranda shook her head, stared at Cellulu for a while, and then asked meaningfully.

"Isn't it stupid to chase the wind that doesn't stop, you say?"

A look of surprise crossed Lulu's face, and after a long while, Miranda heard her answer, her voice scattered in the wind, a bit empty.

"If you can't follow, then don't follow, and become the unstoppable wind."

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

The exam is over, but my vitality is seriously damaged, so I am late for the update, and I have to move next time. I am really busy. This chapter is longer than I thought, and it took two days to finish it, alas~
