Chapter 346 Familiar Handwriting

After upgrading the two items, Jiang Qian took out the tourmaline set from the locker.

The tourmaline set is made of four-color tourmaline crystal columns of black, blue, green and rose, and is placed in an elegant and simple box.

According to the description of the item, it has the functions of effectively suppressing evil spirits, warding off evil spirits, and maintaining health, including regulating the harmony of intimate relationships. And once these four aspects of abnormal phenomena appear in the home, the tourmaline will report to the prop holder as soon as possible.

Jiang Qian can't wait to experience its additional functions.

Of course, this matter cannot be sloppy and must be done step by step.

So, Jiang Qian quietly placed the four props in the four corners of the house according to the description of the props. The tourmaline crystal column automatically disappeared into the house when it touched the facilities in the room.

When the last crystal column was laid out, Jiang Qian, as the prop holder, saw the brilliant brilliance of the layered reflection after the prop set was completed.

[The tourmaline has been laid out. Please select the object of protection and monitoring. The effective distance is 100 kilometers. ]

[Tip: The number of people under protection is inversely proportional to the effect of protection. Please choose the object of protection carefully. ]

Then, Jiang Qian's mind appeared with image options, which were the permanent objects in the house: the old Buddha, the sister, the aunt, and himself.

Jiang Qian selected the old Buddha, the sister and the aunt.

The effective distance is 100 kilometers, which is equivalent to the span of the city. The old Buddha and the aunt basically will not leave the city, especially the old Buddha, who will at most walk around near his own community. As he is old and does not travel far, this distance is no problem.

As for his sister, Jiang Qian is not worried.

A feather tribe leader who is to be verified, even he, a four-state·complete body with "compatibility power", cannot see through the depth of the existence, most of the time it is not his turn to worry about her safety.

Clicking on the sister is more like a psychological comfort, at least in this way, he can know the status of his sister at any time.

Even if it is just a health condition and intimacy problem...

[Connecting...]

The props give a prompt.

Yu Xuan, who was peeling oranges for Mr. Fo in the living room, suddenly paused, and looked towards the bathroom.

The last tourmaline crystal column was hidden in the bathroom by Jiang Qian.

[Connected, the house-guarding function is turned on. ]

[Hi, hello, private detective A Xi is at your service. ]

[It is sunny today, there is no abnormality in the house, the three family members you are protecting are in good health, have no emergency, and their intimate relationship is stable. ]

?

It is also an intelligent voice... Jiang Qian was a little surprised.

[You can talk to A Xi through "consciousness", and the smart A Xi will do his best to meet your requirements. ]

"If there is an abnormality in the house, you will notify me as soon as possible, right?" Jiang Qian tried to communicate with consciousness.

[Yes. ]

The tourmaline suit replied.

Jiang Qian smiled slightly, and the poison sac at his wrist contracted, releasing a small ghost.

This was an abnormal living body absorbed from the axe-dragging man during the battle in the "Containment" copy. Jiang Qian released one of them, of course, only within the bathroom.

As a result, the little thing was crushed by a dazzling light before it completely left his body, and disappeared in an instant.

The bathroom returned to normal, and the house-guarding tourmaline said nothing.

It was as if it didn't bother to take the initiative to report this risk that posed no threat at all.

But Jiang Qian still asked rigorously: "Axi, what's the strange phenomenon at home today?"

The house-guarding tourmaline answered truthfully:

[In the mansion, a trace amount of abnormal energy invaded once, which has been dealt with. 】

Although the tone was still friendly, Jiang Qian still heard the arrogance from this powerful prop set.

Very good, this at least shows that the props are extremely sensitive to abnormal detection, and the effect is very strong. Abnormal energy that appears in the mansion area will be detected and cleared as soon as it appears, even if it has not posed a threat to the family... Jiang Qian silently calculated.

"Give me the detailed health data of my family members." Jiang Qian made another request to private detective A Xi.

[Family member: Tang Hongmei]

[Gender/age: female/71 years old]

[Basic diseases: high blood pressure, osteoporosis, hyperopia, early symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. ]

[Overall evaluation: general]

...

[Family member: Jiang Chuntao]

[Gender/age: female/36 years old]

[Basic diseases: high blood lipids, varicose veins, breast hyperplasia. ]

[Overall evaluation: good]

...

[Family member: Yu Xuan]

[Gender/age: female/26 years old]

[Basic diseases: none. ]

[Overall evaluation: excellent]

...

Jiang Qian stared at the health overview of Mr. Lafayette, and the "early symptoms of Alzheimer's disease" was particularly eye-catching here.

Many signs that he didn't pay much attention to before surged in his memory, stimulating a nerve of Jiang Qian.

When Jiang Qian came out of the bathroom, the dish was already on the table.

Aunt and Ye Xiaojing were serving plates and setting up bowls and chopsticks. Yu Xuan took the old man's arm and arranged the old man in a special seat while chatting and laughing. Then he turned his face and lip-read to him: "So slow!"

The meaning was obvious: the first time he brought his girlfriend home, he left her to serve a large family, and he went to the toilet to dawdle. Is that right?

Did she really not know, or was she pretending not to know... Jiang Qian walked to the dining table with hesitation.

Ye Xiaojing had already placed the bowls and chopsticks next to him considerately.

Jiang Qian didn't say much, but looked around the table of dishes with expectation and exclaimed: "Wow, what a big deal! Aunt, your teaching effect is remarkable, so fragrant!"

But he was already grateful in his heart: Thank you my Xiaojing, I finally have a few edible dishes!

Ye Xiaojing naturally agreed: "Aunt Jiang's cooking skills really opened my eyes. It turns out that passion fruit and peanuts can also be a delicious companion. I really learned a lot..."

Jiang Qian's aunt smiled from ear to ear, waved her hands modestly, and praised Ye Xiaojing's cooking skills:

"Jiang Qian, I'm not saying that your girlfriend is really not simple. She is diligent and smart, and she is as good as your aunt in the early years! In a few years, maybe your aunt will have to help you!"

Ye Xiaojing lowered his head embarrassedly: "I'm still far away..."

"Yes, aunt, you are too modest. Xiaojing can't reach your apron corner in another ten years." Jiang Qian sighed from the bottom of his heart: It would be better not to catch up with you in a hundred years.

Yu Xuan watched the three people interacting with a smile, picked up the chopsticks, put a piece of braised pork into the bowl of the old Buddha, and said: "Aunt instructed Xiao Jing to make it, grandma, try it first."

Even though the old Buddha was old, he still liked the sweet braised pork that he was best at when he was young.

At this time, he took out the attitude of a gourmet, solemnly picked it up and put it in his mouth, chewing it, he felt that the fat and lean were evenly distributed, the softness was moderate, and the taste was delicious but not greasy.

Ye Xiaojing watched the chewing action of the Jiang family grandmother nervously, and couldn't help swallowing slightly.

Jiang Qian gently shook her hand under the table, indicating that it was nothing, relax.

"Not bad!"

The old Buddha finally smiled and expressed his approval of Ye Xiaojing's cooking skills.

Everyone laughed.

"Xiaojing, you are really talented in cooking, come to our house often for dinner in the future." Yu Xuan smiled.

You think someone can finally take down the Queen of Dark Cuisine, right... Jiang Qian gave his sister a wicked smile: "No problem, give me the red envelope!"

He saw Yu Xuan was slightly stunned. A moment of loneliness flashed in his eyes, and then quickly disappeared.

"You wish." Yu Xuan smiled.

This made Jiang Qian think that what he just saw was his illusion.

"Xiao Jing, what do your parents do for a living?" The old man was happy, and he actually let go of his reserve and took the initiative to start a conversation with his precious grandson's girlfriend.

Ye Xiaojing glanced at Jiang Qian and slowly said frankly: "My father is a foreign lawyer, and my mother is an opera singer."

"Lawyer? Not a bad job!" The aunt couldn't help but feel relieved that her nephew had found a white, rich and beautiful girlfriend.

"Mom's job is also very good. She is an artist in the system." Yu Xuan also smiled and praised, "She is in the same industry as A Qian's mother."

Jiang Qian paused slightly, he almost forgot what his mother looked like.

"I remember Jiang Qian's mother is a painter?" Ye Xiaojing looked at Jiang Qian with a little curiosity, puzzled by his reaction.

When she first read Jiang Qian's information, she knew that Jiang Qian grew up in a single-parent family, his father died early, and his mother's profession was a painter. Her boss at the time, Lan Junxian, also used this to analyze the causes of Jiang Qian's personality.

"Yes, no wonder Xiaojing and I hit it off at first sight, it turns out that we have a family background." Jiang Qian regained his smile and said casually.

"Then why didn't Xiaojing follow the career path of his parents, but chose to work in a private enterprise?" Yu Xuan continued to ask in a gentle tone.

"Because..." Ye Xiaojing considered his words, "They are often on business trips, and it is difficult to see them all year round... I think I may be more pursuing stability."

"Yes, foreign-related lawyers are very hard, and artists are even more! Famous ones have to perform all over the world and are not at home all year round. Isn't Qian's mother like this?"

Jiang Chuntao chatted very well with Ye Xiaojing in the kitchen, and seemed to understand Ye Xiaojing's choice immediately.

She also wanted to scold Yu Xuan for bringing up all sorts of issues: "You too, stop asking so many questions, just eat your food!"

"Why can't I ask?" The old Buddha said, "We are not from the same family, we are not from the same door, we need to communicate and contact more to understand each other."

Seeing the old Buddha's support, Yu Xuan nodded repeatedly, as if he was already worried about his brother's affairs!

Before she had time to be happy, the old Buddha of the Jiang family turned the tables on her: "Don't be like your sister, who has high aspirations and low hands, and has no place to go at an old age!"

Jiang Qian almost laughed when he heard it.

Yu Xuan was shocked: "Grandma, I haven't offended you recently!"

"You haven't offended me, but I'm anxious." The old Buddha of the Jiang family drank the soup calmly.

"Yes, Xuanxuan, you should hurry up and get married, or your brother will have to get married before you!" Aunt followed suit.

Ye Xiaojing couldn't help but feel a little dazed when she heard the word "marriage" and the scene of the Jiang family urging the national goddess Yu Xuan to hurry up and get married, and suddenly felt that Jiang Qian's family was a little cute.

Fortunately, the doorbell rang at this moment, and a courier was delivered, giving Yu Xuan a chance to run away.

"I'll go open the door!"

Yu Xuan got up and ran out, retreating like avoiding the plague.

So the topic returned to Jiang Qian and Ye Xiaojing.

Jiang Qian and Xiaojing were very smart in observing people's expressions, and they could always make the two elders smile with their words.

At the end of dinner, the elders were completely relieved about Jiang Qian's long stay away from home, and they also expressed their attitude: work hard! Young people should go out and see the world more often, and not stay at home all the time...

This made Jiang Qian very satisfied, and all the purposes of going home this time had been achieved.

Yu Xuan did not return to the restaurant until after dinner, holding a large box and handing it to Jiang Chuntao: "The kitchenware ordered by my aunt has arrived."

After delivering the goods, he quickly left.

Before leaving, he said he was going to a party, and he also emphasized that it was a "sister party", which was once again complained by Mr. Lafayette and my aunt...

"Xiao Jing, come and help my aunt unpack!"

At this time, Jiang Qian's phone just showed an incoming call. Seeing that his aunt invited Ye Xiaojing to appreciate her kitchen art without any hesitation, Jiang Qian was somewhat relieved, so he went back to the room to talk about business with peace of mind.

Back in the room, Jiang Qian picked up the phone: "Minister, you want to see me?"

The cold and emotionless voice of Ji Ming came from the other end of the phone:

"The Nine-tailed Fox has woken up. She asked to see you again, saying that she has important information about Shenshan to exchange with the authorities. Mr. Lan has also learned about this matter and is on his way from Donghai."

"Mr. Lan means that he wants to ask for your opinion first. If you are willing, he wants to arrange for you to meet with the Nine-tailed Fox tomorrow. The specific response will be discussed after you all arrive."

After listening to Ji Ming's words, Jiang Qian had already made a rough judgment in his mind: Shenshan may have unusual movements.

If it had not reached a very urgent level, Lan Junxian and Ji Ming would not choose to execute this matter at the critical moment when he was about to go to Beijing for further studies.

"No problem for me." Jiang Qian agreed without hesitation.

Shenshan Nine-tailed Fox fell into the control of the authorities after he came out of the "Hungry Ghost Apocalypse". During this period, he asked to see him in exchange for information about Shenshan. Unfortunately, he was under the strict protection of the supervision center at that time, so the Nine-tailed Fox never got his wish.

Now that the old story is brought up again, Jiang Qian is not surprised, but rather expects it.

The algae of Shenshan once predicted that I would die at the Beast King level, killed by the overly ferocious Teng Snake, but now all parties should know that I am safe and sound, and the people of Shenshan must be very upset... Jiang Qian then speculated on the reason why the Nine-Tailed Fox insisted on meeting.

"Well, go to work early tomorrow. If the Nine-Tailed Fox's matter goes well, you and I will go to Beijing as planned." Ji Ming's voice came again.

Originally planned to go to Beijing? The schedule is so tight, it seems that you have more urgent things in Beijing... Jiang Qian readily agreed: "Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Qian stretched and lay flat on the bed in his room.

I haven't come back to live for a long time.

Including tonight, it's not possible.

Because I have to prepare for the trip to Beijing tomorrow, I can't alarm my family.

Jiang Qian silently calculated, sat up on the edge of the bed, and his eyes swept over the family portrait still placed on the desk.

He recalled the scene of his first meeting with Ayiguli, and then he was slightly startled and stood up!

…

In the kitchen, Ye Xiaojing assisted Jiang Chuntao in taking out the strange kitchen utensils and posing for photos.

"These are all rare goods that my aunt bought from afar! We don't like these things, don't you know..."

Ye Xiaojing listened to Jiang Chuntao's description of the uniqueness of each rare item with great interest for half an hour before she was released: she carried the express box to the door.

When she passed by the living room, she smiled at Grandma Jiang who was watching TV on the sofa, and silently evaluated Jiang Qian's family members in her heart:

Grandma is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. She seems serious, but she is actually very tolerant and loving to the younger generation; Aunt is straightforward and enthusiastic, and dares to think and act. Although her imaginative dishes are very challenging to the taste buds, how can I show my exquisite cooking skills and closeness to the people without the foil of my aunt?

And my sister... She is really a noble and gentle beauty! I originally thought that she would be an older sister who was not easy to get along with, but it turned out that I was worrying too much. She might not necessarily approve of me. Maybe it was the opposite, or she was just trying to save face for her younger brother.

Ye Xiaojing was thinking about it, but her eyes were attracted by the ballpoint pen marks printed on the surface of the carton...

That was left when Yu Xuan signed for the express delivery.

The light pen marks were not obvious at first, but they were still as sharp as the mantis's vision.

Ye Xiaojing stopped and stared at it for a long time. He always felt that the handwriting was indescribably familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.
