Volume 1 Youth Chapter 44 How Long Can You Be With Me?
The spaceship arrived in Xingyue City at noon on the third day of departure, Xiao Mingyue and Lin Xingyan both went down in Xingyue City, and the three of them were about to separate from this station.
"Shang Hao, then I'm leaving with Sister Xingyan?" Standing at the entrance of the passage of the airship, Xiao Mingyue looked at Shang Hao and said, still with a smile on her face, without the depression of last night.
Shang Hao leaned into Xiao Mingyue's ear and said softly, "Don't think so much, besides, no matter what happens, at least we will be by your side to support you!"
"Well, it will!" Xiao Mingyue was first stunned by Shang Hao's sudden move, and then replied.
"Have you finished speaking, it's not that you can't see it, I'm still waiting" Lin Xingyan crossed his arms over his chest, stood under the airship, looked at Shang Hao and Xiao Mingyue in the passage, and shouted with a smile.
Xiao Mingyue heard Lin Xingyan's words, blushed and said, "I'm leaving", then turned around and walked down quickly with his head down, Shang Hao stood on the deck and watched Xiao Mingyue's departing back.
Xiao Mingyue went down and walked to Lin Xingyan's side, turned to look at Shang Hao and waved his hand, Shang Hao also smiled and waved his hand, and then walked towards the airship, unable to help but feel a little lost.
In the next two days, Shang Hao spent all the rest of his time practicing in his room except for three meals.
At noon on the fifth day, the airship finally reached the sky above Dusk Yin Town, and when Shang Hao got off the airship and stepped on this familiar land, the excitement in his heart was indescribable.
When he came back this time, Shang Hao didn't give any notice to his family, and after leaving the flying station, Shang Hao rented a carriage and went straight to Shangfu.
Shang Hao, who was sitting in the carriage, imagined a lot of scenes when he saw his parents and Carlo when he returned home, but when he was standing at the door of the Shang Mansion, Shang Hao left all the pictures behind.
When Shang Hao got down from the carriage, the guard standing at the door was stunned for a moment, and then happily saluted Shang Hao, and said, "The young master is back."
"Yes, Uncle Taru, I'll go in first" Shang Hao greeted the guards with some joy, and then walked briskly towards the house.
After going out for more than half a year, I came back again, and everything in the yard was still so familiar.
"Sister An Ran, do you know where my mother is now?" Shang Hao estimated that Shang Qian should still be busy in the Chamber of Commerce at this time, so he thought about going to find his mother first, but he didn't know where Lin Nan was now, so he could only stand in the courtyard and ask the maid who passed by.
"Young master, you're back, Madame is taking a walk in the back garden now." An Ran looked at Shang Hao with some surprise, and after being stunned for a moment, he opened his mouth to answer Shang Hao's question.
When Shang Hao heard this, he quickly walked towards the backyard, and as soon as he walked into the garden, he saw Lin Nan walking alone not far away.
"Mother, I'm back"
Lin Nan, who was taking a walk, suddenly heard Shang Hao's voice, immediately turned around, and was surprised to see Shang Hao running over. Lin Nan also stepped forward quickly, looking at Shang Hao who came closer, Lin Nan first touched Shang Hao's head, then pinched Shang Hao's face, and looked at Shang Hao carefully.
Shang Hao just stood like this to show Lin Nan with a bright smile on his face.
"You kid, why don't you tell us when you come back!" Lin Nan said with some disgust.
"Didn't I want to surprise you......" Shang Hao replied with a smile, looking at him like this, Lin Nan was also very happy.
"Have you eaten lunch? If you haven't eaten, I'll make it for you."
"Mother, no need, I've eaten! I'll go with you."
"Well, okay, tell my mother about your life in the academy? I see that you have lost a lot of weight and grown taller."
"The college life is very good, I lost weight because the academy didn't have a game in the last period, and I was tired in the last period!"
"The last time you wrote to say that you won the first place in that competition, your father's happy Chamber of Commerce goods were all discounted for a week, he wanted to become a magician back then, but he didn't have that talent, and now his son is so powerful, it can be regarded as fulfilling his wish!"
"My dad too, it's too much fuss"
Faced with a bunch of questions from Lin Nan, Shang Hao couldn't laugh or cry, while introducing Lin Nan to the life of the academy, which naturally included places about Xiao Mingyue and Huang Tianyang.
"By the way, mother, did Uncle Carlo say anything when I won the first place in the competition?"
After Shang Hao asked this sentence, he suddenly felt that the atmosphere was not quite right, and turned to look at his mother who stopped in place and was silent, Shang Hao's heart was shocked.
"Hao'er, my mother was so happy to see you just now, I forgot to tell you, since you are back, hurry up and go to your Uncle Carlo to have a look!"
After Lin Nan finished speaking, Shang Hao did not hesitate at all, thunder flashed blessings, lightning turned on, and ran directly to Carlo's cottage in the courtyard of the Shang Mansion.
The moment the door was opened, the aroma of the windward herbal tea in the room was still there, but the life breath of the elf sitting on the chair reading the book was already extremely low. At this time, Carlo had no magic fluctuations, and his breath of life was thin like a little firefly in the vast night.
Carlo heard the sound of pushing the door before slowly getting up from the chair, which in the past, as soon as Shang Hao approached the wooden house, Carlo could detect it.
The moment Carlo turned around, Shang Hao's tears could no longer be held back. His impression of Carlo, although he is full of gray hair, has a noble temperament and handsome appearance, making Carlo look very young all the time.
At this time, Carlo's face was wrinkled, like dry willow bark, which was very different from the person with a smile on his face in Shang Hao's image who taught him swordsmanship.
"Card.. Uncle Carlo.. You.. Why didn't anyone tell me?" Shang Hao's words were a little choked, and his tears couldn't stop flowing down.
Shang Hao stood at the door, tears welling up in his eyes, Carlo originally wanted to step forward and wipe away the tears of the child who was tired and crying from practicing swords. But as soon as he took two steps, Carlo's body shook a little.
Shang Hao immediately rushed forward and held Carlo.
"Uncle Carlo, sit down quickly," Shang Hao carefully helped Carlo to sit on the chair.
Carlo raised his arm staggeringly and wiped the tears from Shang Hao's eyes with his sleeve. Shang Hao bent over like this, not daring to look at Carlo.
"Hao'er, don't be sad, don't blame your parents, I didn't let them say it!" Carlo spoke in a hoarse voice, his voice was very soft, but it was not that he lowered his voice, but that Carlo's body was about to come to an end at this time.
"Fifteen years ago, I burned the Holy Wood Heart, and I thought that my life was going to end in this way, and I didn't have to worry about it.
I came to Twilight to walk the places I had been and the roads I had traveled.
I happened to meet you who were born with the source of your life damaged, and out of the desire to repay your kindness, I saved you.
Then, I wanted to pass on my swordsmanship, so I stayed, using a secret method to block the power of the Burning Holy Wood Heart, and forcibly supported it.
Actually, I should have left when I was done teaching you swordsmanship, but I found that over the years, I had become accustomed to the sound of Uncle Carlo, and I found that I suddenly had a little more concern in my life.
If I could, I would like to grow up with you and teach you more things, but the power of the Holy Wood Heart after burning has been completely exhausted, I can't accompany you anymore, you have grown up, and it is time for Uncle Carlo to leave!"
Carlo spoke, a hint of relief on his face. Shang Hao had already cried into tears, and his words were choked.
"Uncle Carlo won't, there must be a way to replenish your life source, right? I'll give you back my life source, I'll give it back to you, you can live well! I don't want you to leave me!" Shang Hao said and wanted to release his life source.
"Hao'er, it's useless"
Carlo grabbed Shang Hao's hand and shook his head gently.
"Then I'll go to the elf clan, I'll go find the fruit of life for you, anything that can help you, I can go and find it, Uncle Carlo, tell me how I can help you!" Shang Hao cried, his eyes blurred.
"It's useless, my life has long been no longer extended"
Carlo shook his head anyway.
"By the way, Sister Xingyan, I'll beg her, they must have a way in the snowy region!" Shang Hao stood up violently and was about to walk out.
"Shang Hao, stand up and look at me" Carlo suddenly accentuated his voice.
Shang Hao, who turned around and walked outside, was stunned in place, turned to look at Carlo, and was silent for a long time, Shang Hao held back his tears and spoke again, "Uncle Carlo, you, how long can you stay with me?"
