25. The Battle of Bowan, the Mystery of Tengtai Mountain (II)
"Do you know Luo Chengrong?!" the third uncle's bronzed square face showed a surprised expression.
Sui Xing is only in her early twenties today, and Luo Chengrong can be her grandmother at her age. So it's impossible to know, at most it's about knowing the person.
Sui Xing's face flashed a trace of displeasure, and he said in a humming voice: "There is a picture of her in the drawer of my grandfather's study, and when I was a child, I often used my grandfather to sit alone in the study and look at it secretly.
If it weren't for the name, I wouldn't have remembered it just by looking at the photos.
When my grandmother was alive, she used to quarrel with my grandfather, and she would always say this name every time she argued. I said, Luo Chengrong, why is this word so familiar!"
The third uncle pondered for a while and continued: "It's not uncommon for major families to have secret cards, but if it is said that the Luo family deliberately hides the strength of Teng Taishan, I think it is absolutely impossible. ”
"Why?"
Because, Luo Chengrong died in the Battle of Bowan. ”
Sui Xing glanced up at the third uncle, his fingers kept tapping on the tablet, and the frequency became faster and faster.
"Teng Taishan is Luo Chengrong's martial servant, and Luo Chengrong is married to a Bai Ding. Therefore, the two of them were originally looked down upon in the Luo family.
Therefore, the Locke family didn't care about his little warrior at all.
According to my speculation, nine out of ten Teng Tai is hiding his own strength.
Also, Xing'er, the Bowan Battle thirty-one years ago was the Locke family and ......"
The third uncle paused at this point, and Sui Xing's fingers on the computer also stopped.
She raised her eyes to look at the third uncle, nodded and said, "It was initiated by the Luo family and the Sui family." There's nothing to say, third uncle, can't you trust me?"
"Where are you talking about this, the third uncle's heart is narrow-minded. ”
Sui Xing waved his hand, and the two were no longer entangled in this little thing.
"When I was a child, I heard my grandfather talk about it, but after so many years, I have completely forgotten it. ”
The third uncle continued: "The main general of the Bowan Battle is your grandfather - Sui Yuanzheng, and the deputy general is Luo Chengrong's uncle - Luo Heshan.
After the Great War that year, the [Gate of the Superweight Vortex] was sealed, the foreign army was defeated, and there was no more than the Gate of the Vortex above the second level in our country for nearly thirty years.
In this battle, the Sui and Luo armies suffered many casualties. It can be regarded as exchanging human lives for decades of peace. ”
Of course, Sui Xing understood what the third uncle said, the Vortex Gate of the second level and below was simply as weak as Grandma's house.
Even in Fan Wujiang's mission, a fourth-level vortex gate appeared. Of course, this kind of overstepping mission is extremely rare.
Ye Ming is right, although Suixing is a mid-level first-grade, but in addition to not having mastered the [Space Secret Talisman], he can already compete with the high-level third-grade in terms of strength.
Therefore, if another bounty catcher took over Fan Wujiang's task at that time, it would be difficult to make a mistake.
As for why Teng Taishan set the task at the F level, Sui Xing didn't think that the old man was worried about the money, and he looked at his attitude towards that kid from the bottom of his heart. It is very probable, but I did not expect to encounter such a big crisis.
Thinking astray, Sui Xing shook his head and put the issue aside for the time being.
"Grandpa was also seriously wounded in that battle and retired from the position of lord. ”
Regarding the Bowan War, Sui Xing heard his grandfather mention it when he was a child. It's just that most of them have forgotten, and this is the only memory point she has left.
Speaking of this, the third uncle was a little embarrassed, and sighed: "Yes, my father was swallowed by a phantom beast and fell disabled. ”
This generation of wizards, whether it is Sui Xing or the third uncle who is more than ten years older than her, has no specific concept of war.
Although they are both bounty hunters, small-scale hunts and real wars are not at all comparable.
They can't imagine the tragedy of the year, and they can only have a rough impression in their hearts through the narration of their elders.
For the sacrifices of their predecessors, they can only hold the highest reverence and gratitude, and there will be no more.
Moreover, the glamorous image of today's wizarding world has long since lost its glory.
The major families are pampered, and every year they compete for a name, honor, and the like.
Thinking of the current situation in the wizarding world, Sui Xing couldn't help frowning, and his chest tightened for a while.
She shook her head and continued to discuss the business at hand, "As soon as Luo Chengrong dies, Teng Taishan will inevitably be expelled by the Luo family." ”
"I'm afraid he doesn't have the heart to stay in the Locke family himself. In short, he must have had little to do with the Locke family for a long time. The third uncle concluded.
"It doesn't make sense!"
"That's right! That's the most suspicious thing about Teng Taishan. The status of the Locke family in our country is second only to Sui and Mao. The third uncle knew that Sui Xing didn't care about him talking about the Sui family, so he said it bluntly.
"Martial servants, most of them are half-blood wizards can't take the way.
Although Teng Taishan was born as a civilian, he is also pure-blooded. He did not hesitate to give up the power of the elements and devote himself to the way of martial arts, in order to hug the thick leg of the Luo family?
Even if he is assigned as Luo Chengrong's military attendant, he can completely propose to untie Luo Chengrong after marrying Bai Ding and losing his family status, and switch to someone else's wing.
Luo Chengrong's generation has twenty or thirty brothers and sisters. With Teng Taishan's strength, who can't you talk to?"
Sui Xing thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Maybe, his strength was not strong back then?"
He is almost seventy years old now, and when Luo Chengrong got married, he was at most in his twenties, so maybe his cultivation has not yet improved?"
The third uncle glanced at her: "Stupid, isn't it." If you can enter the Locke family's martial arts, where will you go?"
Old things, what I found are only scratching the surface, and it is not enough to analyze anything.
"Regardless of whether he is voluntary or what, you just think, after Luo Chengrong dies, where does he get the resources to practice witchcraft and spells?
You saw him open the [Spatial Secret Talisman] with your own eyes, so where did this cultivation come from? Can it fall out of thin air? Is it possible? Why doesn't this kind of good thing fall on our heads?"
The more the third uncle talked, the more sour it became, like a lemon essence.
But don't blame him for this reaction, you know, wizards can't advance out of thin air.
Taking elemental wizards as an example, from awakening the power of the elements to the entry level, they mainly rely on their own talent, understanding, and diligence;
After the entry-level is promoted to the beginner level, it is not enough to work your own, but also to rely on a lot of resources.
After the entry level, it is the first level three, two, and one product, and it is not easy to upgrade the product, and it is even more difficult to cross the level;
It is difficult to cross from the beginner to the intermediate level, and it is even more difficult to cross the intermediate level from the advanced level.
Even a genius would require a lot of resources, let alone an ordinary wizard.
Resources include, but are not limited to: Witchcraft Inheritance, Potions, and Esoteric Scrolls.
These things, the higher the level, the more expensive they are, the kind that makes people dizzy.
And the expenditure of resources is bound to be traceable.
Whether in China or other countries, as long as it is a national federation of buying and selling mixtures, there are records.
Even if you go to the black market and buy it, the best product on the black market is the mixture for promotion to the middle level.
Keteng Taishan started with a proper high-end three-grade product, what kind of black market can provide this kind of supply?!
Not to mention that the federation has cleaned up your family in minutes, but all major families have to step on it.
In addition, every time a registered wizard advances, he must register with the federation and obtain a rank title after passing the energy test.
And behind this title, there is a lot of writing.
The major families of various countries, in addition to cultivating their own bloodline, should not develop?
Of course, it won't be so limited, otherwise it would not be possible to stand out and develop into an existence that people look up to.
Civilian wizards, half-blood wizards, no money, no power, no way, what to do?
Hug the thighs! A small person with the ability to hug thin legs, has great ability, like Teng Taishan, didn't he hug the big thick leg of the Luo family.
Therefore, this Teng Taishan finally hugged the second thickest leg of Huaguo, why did he give up halfway?
Where did the promotion concoction come from? Where did the space secret talisman cultivation method come from? The higher the promotion, the greater the danger of breaking through, who gave him guidance and protection?
Moreover, those who can guide and protect the promotion to the higher ranks can be counted in the entire wizarding world.
Those big guys, what do they have to do with him as a bad old man?
It's not an unsightly thing to have strength, what is the reason why he hides it like this?
