Volume 2 The Name of the Heavenly Wind Chapter 159 The Misty Burial Monument
Dusk, like most of the city in Starmoon City, has much longer nights than days.
When Shang Hao and Gong Xi arrived in Dusk Town, it was only in the afternoon, and Dusk Town was already a little dark.
"Fourth brother, we are here!" As soon as he got off the airship, Shang Hao heard a familiar call before he saw the person Shang Ming had arranged to pick him up.
Not far away, Shang Yi waved his right hand, jumping and jumping, wanting to make himself look more obvious and let Shang Hao see it.
It's just that Shang Yi has just turned seven years old, and his height can barely reach Shang Ming's waist, and there are people coming and going in the flying station, Shang Hao can only follow the sound from the gap in the crowd to find Shang Yi's location.
"Let's go, my family is coming to pick me up!"
Looking at Shang Yi's appearance, Shang Hao's face was full of smiles and he was extremely happy, but he didn't notice Gong Xi beside him, the imperceptible loss on his face, and the envy in his eyes.
For her, what exists in her memories is the time when she was studying magic with Xue Yuwei in the Spirit Realm and Xue Yuwei, as well as with Luo Ming.
For her, the only person in her memory who can be called a relative is Luo Ming. Her parents, on the other hand, only appeared in dreams, and she didn't know where they were.
"What's wrong?"
Shang Hao looked at Gong Xi, who was standing in place in a daze, and asked, which made Gong Xi even more lost.
"Don't worry, we will definitely find your relatives when we go to the elven clan this time!" Shang Hao saw Gong Xi's loneliness and comforted him.
"Brother Shang Ming, Yi'er!"
As soon as they met, Shang Hao greeted him very warmly, and Shang Yi happily broke free of Shang Ming's hand, jumped up, and hung on Shang Hao's body.
"Who's next to you?"
Shang Ming looked at Gong Xi and asked with some confusion.
"This is the Gong Xi I mentioned with you, this time she went to the elf clan with me, she is a tenth-order holy demon guide!"
Shang Hao hugged Shang Yi and introduced Gong Xi to Shang Ming. Then he looked at Gong Xi and introduced, "This is my eldest brother, Shang Ming, this one is the younger brother, Shang Yi!"
"Hello!" Gong Xi smiled and nodded.
"Hello, I didn't expect the girl to reach the tenth-order Holy Demon Guide at such a young age, I heard that this is the strongest magician on the mainland!" Shang Ming didn't know much about magic, but he was still extremely shocked by Gong Xi's cultivation of the tenth-order Holy Demon Guide, and he seemed a little restrained when he spoke.
"Big brother doesn't have to be so polite, Sister Gong Xi is still very good!" Shang Hao hugged Shang Yi while relieving the embarrassing atmosphere.
"Yi'er, get off your brother Shang Hao, he's so tired from the road, can't you let him rest and rest!" Shang Ming turned to look at Shang Yi and scolded with a smile.
"Don't, I just want Brother Shang Hao!" Shang Yi doesn't care about this, it's rare for Shang Hao to come back once, and he won't get down from Shang Hao if he says anything.
"Forget it, I'm not tired, I'll just hug Yi'er for a while!" Shang Hao was also a little helpless, as if the current Shang Yi was the same as him at the beginning, and no one in the whole family could take care of it.
"By the way, Sister Gong Xi, you are a holy magic guide, can you help me see Yi'er's magic talent?" Shang Hao suddenly remembered Shang Yi's question, and cast a look of help to Gong Xi on the side.
"Ice talent, at least above the eighth order, your family has no magic talent bloodline, Shang Yi's talent has been suppressed, and when his talent breaks through the bloodline suppression, it will be revealed, and it should be soon!" Gong Xi knew the magic of the human race in great detail.
Shang Yi's problem, even Carlo at that time, couldn't find the reason, but Gong Xi broke it down. Of course, this is also because the magic power in Shang Yi's body was extremely weak at the beginning, and it was difficult for Carlo to perceive.
And now the magic power in Shang Yi's body has become so thick that it is about to break through the bloodline suppression, and it is already very good to perceive.
"Is that so, thank you Sister Gong Xi!" Shang Hao heard about Shang Yi's talent and was happy for him from the bottom of his heart.
The merchant's bloodline has no magical talent, as the only person who has awakened the magic power of the merchant for dozens of generations, Shang Hao knows best how wonderful this magic-based continent is.
Shang Yi can have such a high magical talent, presumably he will be able to leave his own traces on this continent in the future.
"Really?" Shang Ming was obviously the one who was the most surprised, he didn't know about magic, but he knew that Shang Hao's magic talent was level six, and he was already very strong, and Shang Yi's eighth-level talent meant that the merchant would have another character like Shang Hao.
"Big brother, don't get excited, although Yi'er is talented, she still needs to exercise more!" Shang Hao looked at the excited Shang Ming, and couldn't bear to pour cold water.
"It's okay, it's okay!" Shang Ming also realized his gaffe and hurriedly adjusted his mood.
"I don't know if you would like to let him come to our Xue Yuwei to cultivate?" Gong Xi, as the Xue Yusan of this generation, is naturally qualified to issue such an invitation.
"Then forget it, this kind of life in the army is too restrictive!" Shang Hao snorted, he didn't want to make decisions for Shang Yi so early, set his future path, and all decisions should be handed over to the future Shang Yi himself.
"Alas, look at me, I have forgotten about Yi'er's affairs! The carriage is ready, Hao'er, you take Miss Gong Xi to the car, let's go back to the house and talk slowly!" Shang Ming patted his head, remembered the matter, and hurriedly asked Gong Xi to wait for the carriage here.
The road from the flying station to Shangfu was not too far, and along the way, Gong Xi also talked a lot with them about Shang Yi's situation.
On the one hand, it was because they needed Shang Hao's help, and helping them solve Shang Yi's problem could be regarded as returning this favor, and on the other hand, the relationship between the three merchant brothers also touched Gong Xi a lot.
"It's here!"
Seeing the Shang Mansion not far away from the window of the carriage from a distance, Shang Yi shouted happily, this kid's temperament is better than that of Shang Hao in the past.
"Merchant, the first in the Chamber of Commerce of Xingyue City, sitting on one-tenth of the wealth of Xingyue City, it seems that your background is not small!" Gong Xi looked at the plaque of the Shang Mansion and said with some jokingness.
"What's the matter, compared to you Xue Yuwei, all this money is dung, okay!" Shang Hao was also joking, but what he said was true, if one day Xue Yuwei really wanted this wealth of the merchant, it could be said that it was within reach.
On this continent, no matter how much wealth you have, you must have the ability to defend it.
The merchant's situation is a bit peculiar, and since there is no strong strength, the merchant chooses an extremely sensible solution.
All the proceeds are settled once a year, and half of them are handed over as the military expenses of the various armies of Star-Moon City, and the officials of Star-Moon City acquiesce to this behavior.
In this case, if someone covets the wealth of the business, they also have to consider the huge network of relationships involved behind it.
And the merchant has a more secret layer of identity. The only human chamber of commerce granted by the elves that can trade in and out of the elven royal city.
Although I don't know how the merchants did this, just because of this, the official forces of Xingyue City also took good care of the merchants, so that the merchants could develop extremely smoothly in Xingyue City.
"Miss Gong Xi is too polite, we merchants still need you magic army to take care of it!" After Shang Ming knew the identity of the commander of Gong Xi Xue Yuwei, he respected this young woman more and more.
"Let's go, Brother Shang Ming, take Yi'er back first, Sister Gong Xi and I still have a little thing to do!" Shang Hao put Shang Yi next to Shang Ming, and he didn't plan to take him with him in the future.
"Don't worry, they've already cleaned it up for you!" As early as in the correspondence between the two, Shang Hao had already informed Shang Ming of the purpose of his return this time.
Shang Ming emptied all the people in the family's backyard since the morning, including Lin Nan and others, according to Shang Hao's meaning, he didn't want his family to know.
"Hao'er, you have to pay attention to safety yourself, don't force it!" Shang Ming admonished, coaxed the somewhat reluctant Shang Yi a little, and walked towards the other side with him.
"Let's go, take out that thing!" Shang Hao took a deep breath, after so many years, it was finally time to take out this thing!
The back garden of the Shang Mansion was Carlo's favorite place during his fifteen years of staying here, and it was also the place where Shang Hao often took him to teach magic.
The birthday gift that Carlo gave to Shang Hao was buried in the middle of the back garden, in the middle of a group of sunflowers.
Stepping into this place again, those sunflowers are still blooming brilliantly, although they are no longer the original ones.
Shang Hao's heart moved, he pulled out the Elf King Sword, and slashed it on the dirt ground, stirring up a large piece of broken soil, which was thrown to both sides under the wrapping of his magic power.
After a few swords were slashed, you could see the top of a stone tablet faintly peeking out below.
The burial soil of the mist, this is what this stone tablet called in the mouth of Carlo, who introduced Shang Hao to the origin of the legend of the elves.
It is rumored that the elves were born in the mist of the phantom mist flower, gathering the purest power in heaven and earth, and the elves born from this are pure, kind, and sincere.
In order to prevent this situation, the elf king drew a little power from all the elves, condensed this stone tablet, and suppressed all the fog in the vast forest.
After being drained of power, the elves have some more flaws in their flawless personalities, of course, all this is still incomparably noble compared to those filthy creatures.
The suppressed fog could not cause damage in the vast forest again, and the elven race took root and grew here, slowly growing stronger, and developed into the second largest race on the continent.
There is no way to verify the truth of this tablet and this legend, after all, there are too many things to say about the first elf king in the legend, no one can tell the truth from the false, but one thing can be determined.
This monument, which has always been kept by the elven royal family, is of great significance!
