Taoist fast crossing

"Only adult elves are allowed to enter the battlefield. Your Majesty, you still have a while."

Filmes' eyes drifted away, as if he was thinking about something.

"When are you going to the battlefield?" Si Qingyan said calmly.

"After God's birthday."

"I'll go with you."

Firmos looked at Si Qingyan suspiciously. Seeing his determination, he felt a little more trust in his heart. After saluting, he stood respectfully behind Si Qingyan without saying a word.

Outside the hall, High Priest Saul asked to see him.

Si Qingyan finished drinking half a cup of fruit tea before asking High Priest Sol to come in.

The elves are clever and ingenious. In peacetime, they love music and food, live a delicate life, and are full of artistic beauty everywhere.As the newly appointed king of the elves, Si Qingyan enjoys the highest treatment. If there is no war, life now must be as happy as a fairy.

High Priest Sol was very polite, Si Qingyan didn't cry out, and he just knelt there on one knee.In this way, High Priest Saul felt at ease. It would be a bad thing if the Elf King was warm and friendly to him.

"What do you want from me?" Si Qingyan had no intention of intervening in factional struggles.

"Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, and Sol wants to offer something to His Majesty, hoping that it will be useful to His Majesty." High Priest Saul looked respectful.He is always very silent, because of those deep eyes, his temperament is vicissitudes of life and wisdom.

Perhaps before I met him, meeting High Priest Saul on the road would raise two points of respect in his heart, but after what happened last night, Si Qingyan looked at High Priest Sol again, and felt that there was something hidden in his old, wise-looking face. With deep sand sculptures.

"Bring it up."

High Priest Saul respectfully held up a thick book.Intense elemental fluctuations linger in the meantime, not as harmless as it appears on the surface.

Firmos gave High Priest Saul a cool look, with a hint of sarcasm.

Old fox, after being overcast for so long, his car overturned yesterday, did the old face hurt from being beaten?

Si Qingyan opened the book, and on the title page was written the story of elves, and there was a string of praying spells underneath——

Nature's darling born from the tree of life

You are the teardrops from the goddess' drooping eyes

You are the light and shadow in the night sky when the stars fall

You will stick to the rules of the elves and never forsake

Goddess of life is watching you

May the moon hang high on your road ahead, and the wind and rain be quiet

The second page is pattern plus text.The pattern occupying half of the page is like a photo, which clearly records the scene of Si Qingyan's birth. She raised her eyes from the blood light and was frozen. It was recorded at the top of the elf story, and the name below it was Lansa Sloat.Lansa is a natural name, and Sloat is the hereditary surname of the elf royal family.Then there is age—juvenile, rank—Dharma Saint, race: Pure Blood Moon Elf King, attribute, Blood Moon.

The second page is High Priest Saul, full name, Saul Highlander.In the picture, the high priest Sol is young and handsome, closing his eyes and chanting a mantra, behind him are countless elves bowing and saluting.Adulthood, Dharma Saint, half-pure three-generation elf, attribute, nature.

The third page is Filmes. She is a commoner and has no surname.In the picture, she is fighting with a woman holding two scimitars. A long and narrow wound was cut on her face. The blade of the woman holding the knife is stained with blood. The bright red is mixed with a little silver light, which is the blood of the elves.This should be the scene where her face was injured, which was recorded in the story of the elves.Like High Priest Saul, Fermes is an adult Dharma Saint, but her race is a mutated mixed-breed elf, attributes, and ice.

The fourth page is Claudia Sloat. She wears an elf crown and looks up at the moon, as if praying. Her body is wrapped in silver light, which is the moment she broke through the Silver Knight.Childhood, silver knight, pure blood elf royal family, attributes, none.

Si Qingyan turned back page by page, covering almost all the important figures of the elves.

"Dead elves disappear from Elven Tales."

High Priest Sol whispered.It turns out that the elf queen occupies the first place in the elf story.

Not only the blood moon, but the disappearance of the queen's name on Elven Story is also the reason why they believe the queen is dead.

"The ranking is more accurate based on comprehensive factors such as bloodline and strength."

"Ah."

Si Qingyan flipped through the pages very quickly, ten lines at a glance, and never forgetting.

High Priest Saul sat quietly at the bottom, looking very loyal.

"You can summon any elf at any time. We are all willing to serve you. The elves who attacked you yesterday, including me, will always receive punishment from the king."

"Go to the battlefield and kill ten demons." Si Qingyan said casually.

"...Yes." High Priest Saul hesitated for a moment, but said nothing.

Not every adult elf went to battle, and some remained in Silvermoon Forest, in the name of protecting the others.

Firmos smiled gloatingly.

She has been displeased with those cowards for a long time, but it is a pity that the elves prohibit infighting.High Priest Saul was highly valued by the Queen before, and she couldn't say anything. Now that the new king is in office, those cowardly elves might not be able to live a comfortable life.

Si Qingyan found that most of the elves in the front row of the story of elves came from the battlefield, and many of them were close friends of Firmos, while the elves on the high priest Sol's side were generally at the back. But very limited.

In the era of war, there is no place where it is easier to make contributions than the battlefield.

In the past, the queen didn't like to take care of trivial matters, and all matters were handed over to the Presbyterian Council headed by the high priest of Saul, which made the factional struggles within the elves worse, and there was a tendency to transform into vicious competition.

"Let's do this for now, Sol is going to prepare for the god's birthday ceremony."

"Filmers, we are going to the funeral tonight."

After Si Qingyan finished speaking, she signaled High Priest Saul to leave.

"Yes." Filmos was left behind, and gave High Priest Saul a smug look.

"Filmers, I have something to discuss with you. I hope you can keep it a secret."

Si Qingyan pointed to the seat next to her and motioned for Firmos to sit down.

Firmos didn't shy away either. After sitting down, he looked Si Qingyan in the eye and said very seriously:

"As long as the interests of the elves are not harmed, I will keep the secret for the king."

"I want to implement a new order to re-establish the nobility of the elves. Nobles are hereditary, and civilians can become nobles through military exploits."

Si Qingyan's tone was flat, but there was an undeniable determination.

Firmos trembled, and she looked at Si Qingyan in shock.This is tantamount to a thunderstorm on a sunny day.

The distance between the common people and the nobles is almost a gulf. In order to keep the bloodline pure, the nobles will not intermarry with the common people. Those who are waiting for the elves to be born under the tree of life are all nobles.It is impossible for a newborn pure-blooded elf to be handed over to civilians to be raised.

If the natural moat is broken, the status of the elders who maintain the rule of the elf royal family will be impacted.Even the status of the Elf King is not so secure.Because today's new king is recognized because he is a noble pure-blooded royal family with atavistic blood.

If ordinary commoner elves can be named kings, then can commoner elves be kings of elves?

In the past, Firmos only dared to think about this question secretly, even if he had won the trust of the empress, he didn't dare to mention it.I didn't expect His Majesty Lansa to mention this.He wouldn't be a traitor who broke into the elf royal family, right?

Is he testing me?

Seeing Si Qingyan's eyes were deep, but she was already a little impatient because of her silence for a long time, and Firmos shivered deeply.

"Your Majesty, only pure blood can be a nobleman, and the new order cannot be implemented."

"I say yes." Si Qingyan saw Firmos' scruples, and only smiled lightly.

Filmes became embarrassed. Could it be that she really misunderstood what the king meant?Does he really want to improve the status of the common people?

"Don't be too hasty for the time being. I know what you have done to the elves. Firmus, you should not be just a commoner."

Even if Fermes is a saint of law, her status is still lower than that of Sol, and she still has to salute when she sees other elves of the elders.

"If what the king said is true, then the life of Firmos belongs to the king."

Firmos knelt down, lowered his head, and clasped lightly.

"You go and prepare for the funeral." Si Qingyan signaled Firmos to go out.

"Yes."

When Firmes went out, Si Qingyan went to the treasure house of the elves to look around. In addition to some more precious forbidden spells, there were also many spell scrolls, monster crystal cores, various precious materials, elemental plants, elemental fruits, etc. .Judging from the half-empty inventory, the elves suffered a huge loss due to the war, and the replenishment was far lower than the loss.

A lonely family can't overthrow a world, and there are still many problems for the elves.

Si Qingyan was sitting alone in the hall, and there was no one below. He rubbed the space between his brows, feeling a little headache.Lonely family, internal and external troubles, how to make a comeback?

"elder brother!"

Clodia has been asleep for a while, and her energy will recover faster than ordinary children after all.

When she woke up, she was led to the main hall by Si Qingyan, and when she walked to the door, the elves around her turned into phantoms, and the person she longed to see was sitting on the throne of the main hall.

She trotted to Si Qingyan's side, hugged Si Qingyan and asked, raised her head, and whispered:

"I'm very hungry."

"It seems like I haven't eaten for three days, and I can eat a giant dragon in one bite."

Si Qingyan picked her up, hugged her, and took her to dinner.

Only the two of them sat at the long table, at least a few meters away from each other.The butler led the elf maid to serve carefully cooked food, and stood by, adding food to Claudia from time to time.

According to elf etiquette, it is rude to make noise while eating, so this meal is very quiet.

After finishing the meal, Si Qingyan asked the butler to change the table into a round table, so that the upper floor could turn.

Clodia's eyes sparkled, looking forward to it.

A child's world is always small.Can't hold too much sadness, and will soon be filled with new life.It's just that she doesn't know when she can change her habit of crying when she sleeps.

The blood moon of last night has dissipated, and the moon tonight is still silvery white.

The bodies of the elves who died in battle will be thrown into the fountain of life.

Born from the tree of life, it turns into spring water after death to nourish the tree of life again.

It's a complete cycle.

The elves regard it as an honor to merge into the fountain of life.

There were no complicated ceremonies at night, but their family members personally gave birth to a flower boat and put the dead elves into the fountain of life.

Because of the power invested by the elf crown at that moment, Claudia's platinum-blond hair grew back, reaching her waist, soft and beautiful, with some natural curls.Si Qingyan braided her hair, and it hung down behind her back in a simple braid.

The baby fat on Claudia's cheeks has long since disappeared due to intensive training. Her clear blue eyes indicate her noble status by birth, and there are tiny tears hanging on her curly and slightly curled eyelashes, which are especially beautiful under the moonlight. gentle.A small face the size of a palm, with delicate features, cute and cute, but her eyes are so firm, as if nothing can stop her from moving forward.

Unlike the sad funeral song last night, the elves sang a farewell song to soothe their souls tonight.

They firmly believe that the dead elves will return to the embrace of the goddess of nature, and obtain eternal tranquility in the distant kingdom of gods.

The singing is long and gentle, like a mother comforting her young son, patting his back gently, like a lover's soft and hot gaze, hesitating to speak, like a friend's smiling eyes, trying to reach out but stopping at the last moment.

please hear my whisper

we will always remember

You are now immortal

flowers and moon accompany you

Back to Mother God

May you sleep forever in the light of God

……

Clodia also sang along with the other elves, and the singing contained strange power, as if it could heal all the pain in her heart, leaving only the shallow sadness of remembering the deceased.

In Si Qingyan's eyes, the bodies of those dead elves melted into the spring water and became transparent for a moment. The souls in them floated up and were attracted by the moonlight, as if they had gone to another dimension.

Their souls are still conscious, sadness, reluctance, blessing, all kinds of emotions are intertwined, disappearing in the silver light spots all over the sky.

The fertility of elves is not the same. A pure blood may give birth to two or three elves after reaching adulthood, and a commoner elf may give birth to more than ten.Most of the dead are commoner elves, and occasionally a few purebloods, so the flower boat should be extra grand.

Si Qingyan didn't know their funeral song at first, but she learned it naturally while standing in it.It seems to be an innate instinct.

After the funeral, the sky turned slightly white.

Clodia was so sleepy that she went back to her room to sleep after washing.She clasped her hands together and prayed softly:

"Beautiful goddess, I hope I can sleep with my brother tonight."

In the past, Claudia often slept under the light cocoon where Si Qingyan was.

As long as she can sense Si Qingyan's breath, she can sleep peacefully.

After praying, she took a peek at Si Qingyan.

"One last story. I'll be here watching Clodia fall asleep."

The cool tone softened.

"Ok."

Clodia covered the small quilt, revealing only a pair of eyes.

"A long time ago, there was a little rabbit who liked to eat carrots..."

Si Qingyan opened the book "1000 Stories That Elf Babies Should Hear", found the place where she read it last time, and continued reading.

Clodia listened carefully, smiled innocently, her eyes flickered, and she fell asleep before the story was finished.

Si Qingyan pampered Claudia a little more when she thought that she would leave with Firmos to go to Cold Winter Fortress soon.

In the future, if he is not in the Silver Moon Forest, Claudia will return to her previous life.She was so lonely and terribly insecure.

Now she is too young to be taken into battle.

It seems that we still need to find some playmates for Clodia.

The playmates that the Elf Queen had found for Claudia in the past all entered adolescence early and lived their own lives because of their rapid growth.After changing several batches in a row, the Elf Queen never found a playmate for Claudia again.

Si Qingyan intends to find a few civilian elves who practice fighting qi to stay with Claudia. This matter can be handed over to Firmos.Compared to High Priest Saul, Filmos is more believable.

Soon, God's birthday will come.

This is the biggest festival of the elves.

Because of the sudden death of the Elf Queen, the Forest of Silver Moon did not have any festive atmosphere.

If it wasn't for the god's birthday that required the Elf King to sacrifice in person, Si Qingyan would have gone to Cold Winter Fortress now.There are also benefits to presiding over the ritual, such as being recognized by all elves, increasing some prestige, and so on.

The winter snow has not yet melted, and the Silver Moon Forest is full of ice sculptures.

Exquisite ice lanterns are hung on the tall ancient trees. Inside are soft element lighting techniques, which can be bright for a long time, and there are lights of various colors.

The palm-sized goblins are also carrying super small ice lanterns, which are filled with glowing green grass seeds, which are very beautiful.These goblins are mainly responsible for planting various plants. They are very mischievous and like to play tricks the most.

The sacrificial offering was held in the Elven Holy Tower, which is said to be an artifact left by the Goddess of Life, containing the will of the Goddess of Life.

Si Qingyan was dressed in a dark silver costume, followed by Clodia who was wearing the same costume.The lines on his clothes are golden and extremely gorgeous, while Claudia's clothes are more clean.

Si Qingyan walked to the Elven Holy Tower, looked at the lonely snow-capped mountains in the distance, and recited a long and beautiful sacrificial prayer.

There are probably tens of thousands of words in this thing, and you must read it without missing a word.

Fortunately, Si Qingyan copied a copy of his existence consciousness, so he can read it accordingly.

The elves present looked solemn, without blinking their eyes.

Clodia was very serious at first, but then her eyelids gradually drooped, and she seemed to be falling asleep.Fortunately, there was only Si Qingyan in front of her, and no one else saw her.

I don't know how long it took, but Si Qingyan finally finished it.

Every character he read was materialized into silver elf language, condensed in the air, and surrounded by the elf holy tower.

Clodia slept and woke, and woke and slept, and it had been several rounds.

She didn't know how to practice a skill, and she could fall asleep while standing still. After falling asleep, her body didn't move, and she couldn't see it from behind.

High Priest Sol raised his scepter and began to chant the spell.

The elves in the sky shone with silver light, as bright as the stars in the sky, and the other elves followed the High Priest Sol to chant the spell, and the light was shining brightly.

Si Qingyan took the lead to salute the elf holy tower.

Like a domino falling, countless elves lay behind.

Only Si Qingyan and Clodia knelt on one knee in the audience to show their respect for the goddess.The other elves are all bowed to the ground, with a pious posture.

The sacrificial rites in the air were thrown towards the Elven Holy Tower, leaving it like a brand mark.

The surface of the Elven Holy Tower is covered with silver light, and there seems to be strange fluctuations inside.

This is the most important link, the divine omen.

Whenever a new king appears in the elves and presides over the god's birthday ceremony, they must recite sacrificial prayers and pray for the gods to prophesy.

Legend has it that the snow-capped mountain behind the Elven Holy Tower was transformed by the corpse of a god. For countless years, the prophecies given by the gods have all come true, and they are all accurate.

After all the mantras were absorbed by the Elven Holy Tower, a silent consciousness came out with a sentence:

"The blood moon rises often, and the silver moon becomes purgatory."

Many elves changed their faces.

Clodia's face was even paler.

The blood moon... The blood moon will only appear when the Elf King dies. Could it be that my brother will die too?

The silver light on the surface of the Elven Holy Tower dimmed, and the place returned to silence.

Si Qingyan held Claudia and walked towards the palace.

High Priest Saul and Firmus followed with ugly expressions on their faces.

The blood moon often rises, is it possible that one elf king will die one after another, the latter sentence, the silver moon reduced to purgatory is even more puzzling.There is a legacy left by the gods here, and it is one of the safest places on the San Siro continent. How could it be reduced to purgatory?

Does all this have anything to do with the newly appointed Elf King?

The elves felt uneasy.

Si Qingyan had no expression on his face. He thought it would increase his prestige, but now he looked very precarious, maybe he would fall down.Originally, he didn't appear many times, and most elves thought that he succeeded to the throne because of his blood returning to his ancestors. Now it seems that there may be some twists and turns.Life is so difficult, you can never guess what will happen in the next moment.

"Your Majesty, how do you think the prophecy should be interpreted?" High Priest Saul asked.

"The demons may build a new space channel in the Silver Moon Forest. Apart from this, I can't think of any other possibility that the Silver Moon Forest will be reduced to purgatory." Si Qingyan was calm and unhurried, as if he hadn't been predicted at all. Affect.

"This may indeed be the reason. If this is the case, Your Majesty, how do you think we should solve this problem?" Firmos instinctively felt that things were just as Si Qingyan said.

Si Qingyan pondered for two seconds, then said:

"First quickly clean up the demons in Winter Fortress to remove worries, and then unite with other races to guard the Silver Moon Forest. And move some of the coalition forces near the Silver Moon Forest. It is best to build a war fortress in the Silver Moon Forest in advance. "

Among the elves present, except for High Priest Saul and Firmus, the other elves showed skeptical expressions.

"Your Majesty is right, I think it can be implemented." High Priest Saul saluted respectfully.

"Secondary." Firmus didn't even raise his eyelids, looking calm and not surprised.

"What if the king's guess is wrong? We are pushing in the wrong direction, and when a real crisis arises, how should we resist?" an elf from the Presbyterian Church asked.

On the surface, the Presbyterian Church is under the control of High Priest Saul, but in fact it is not monolithic.And the elder had something to say.

"Then what do you think is the real crisis, which is even more threatening than the demons?" Si Qingyan asked with interest.

"..." The elder was at a loss for words for a moment.

Indeed, there is nothing more terrifying than the invasion of the demons.

"Just do as I say. If anyone has illusions, thereby slowing down the process and affecting the life and death of the elves, I will wring his head off."

Si Qingyan looked around, and wherever his gaze fell, all the elves lowered their heads in a submissive posture.

"Yes." They said in unison.

"I will go to the Cold Winter Fortress with Firmos, and strive to eliminate the demons as soon as possible and cut off your worries. You can stay in the Silver Moon Forest to build a war fortress, but if you dare to hold me back, you will bear the consequences."

Although Si Qingyan was still a teenager, no elf opened his mouth to refute what he said.They only dared to slander in their hearts, the newly appointed Elf King did not seem to speak elegantly.

Based on the current situation, it is most appropriate for Si Qingyan to go to Cold Winter Fortress.

Claudia has been listening, she frowned, hesitated to speak.

She didn't speak until all the elves assigned tasks and left:

"Brother, can you not go to Winter Fortress?"

"I will definitely come back safely." Si Qingyan patted Clodia's little head.

"It's all my fault... I didn't know it would become like this."

Clodia felt a little regretful.

If I knew that the prophecy was so dangerous, I shouldn't have crowned my brother.The elves in their youth didn't have to go to the battlefield.

"Claudia, when you grow up to be a teenager, you can also go to the battlefield. I will wait for you in Winter Fortress."

Claudia practiced fighting qi, and whether she was an adult or not had little effect on her combat power.

"Okay! I will try my best to keep up with my brother."

Clodia is not afraid of the battlefield, only the death of her loved ones.

It would be nice to stay in Winterhold with my brother.

Even if the space channel of Winter Fortress is destroyed, the demons entrenched there cannot be cleaned up in a short time.

Firmus has already gone to find playmates for Claudia, mainly civilian elves who practice fighting spirit.Si Qingyan allowed Claudia to pass on the battle qi cultivation method she taught to others, hoping to improve the strength of some elves, and it would be best to make a few friends.
