Relief

  Inside the carriage, soft fluffy animal skin cushioned on the wooden bench, in the cold weather, making people feel very warm, Merlin although not very clear about the prices of this world, but he knew that the animal skin sitting under his buttocks, absolutely worth a lot of money.

  Even Merlin, a nobleman's son, had to feel in his heart that it was really extravagant! Although the nobility has a high status, but it also depends on some taxes in the territory, on wealth, the Wilson family is far inferior to the Daughran family.

  Sitting inside this ultra-luxurious carriage was really enjoyable, and it didn't take long for them to reach their destination and for the carriage to come to a gradual stop.

  "Okay, get out of the car."

  Anson was already eagerly urging to get out of the car.

  After getting out of the car, they came inside a short store, which looked empty, with just a few artifacts on the shelves.

  Merlin is not familiar with this place, even if there are doubts, but will not say, but close behind Anson and Gut.

  Anson and Gut seem to have been lightly traveled, the two directly then walked to the counter, in front of the counter, there was a young woman dressed in a revealing manner, as soon as they saw Anson and Gut, a smile appeared on their faces.

  "Young Master Anson, Young Master Gut."

  The young woman obviously knew Anson and Gut.

  "Well, let us in, I heard your boss has gotten some new goods recently?"

  Anson rubbed his hands together and asked the exposed woman.

  "Yes, our boss recently got a new batch of goods, including some fine products, to ensure that Young Master Anson and Young Master Gut are satisfied." The young woman said while pressing something under the counter, and immediately afterwards, a wall in front of her actually began to rotate, revealing a dark passage inside.

  "Little Lin, let this young master see if you've grown up recently?"

  Gut came to the girl called Xiaolin, stretched out a fat hand, actually directly into the girl's bosom, rubbed a hand.

  "Fatty, get out of here."

  Anson shouted urgently from the front, seeing that Gut had not followed.

  "Hey, hey, it's coming."

  Gut pulled out his fat hand, reached out and threw a golden gold coin into Lin's hand, and then Gut also followed Anson's footsteps and entered the dark passage.

  The passage was a little dark at first, but after a few steps, the fire could be seen. It turned out that on both sides of the passage, there were candles that illuminated the passage.

  Merlin squinted his eyes to the front, found that the passage has been sloping down, about seven or eight meters deep underground, this tunnel is dug deep enough.

  After walking a hundred meters, finally, there were some sounds in front, vaguely accompanied by some shouts, Anson's footsteps obviously accelerated a lot, and soon passed through the passage.

  At the end of the passage is an incomparably spacious hall, about the size of two soccer fields. There are not many people inside, but they are all standing in twos and threes, and are tasting some of the antiques placed in the hall.

  I think this is where Anson and Gut are coming from.

  Anson arrived in the hall, his eyes looked around, and then he saw a middle-aged man in black walk up quickly: "Young master Anson, young master Gut, you're a little late today."

  Anson's face changed slightly and he hurriedly asked, "Mr. Nathan, are all the good things sold out?"

  The middle-aged man smiled faintly and said, "Of course not, but it's almost done, let's go, Miss Kellys is admiring this new batch in front."

  "Oh? Miss Keris is here too?"

  A hint of joy appeared on Gut's fat face.

  "Just got here not too long ago, too."

  In a short while, the middle-aged man took Merlin and the others to a secluded room where five or six young men and women, gathered around some antiques on the shelves, were whispering something.

  "Hi, Miss Callis, you've come so quickly."

  As soon as Anson entered, he greeted a woman in a green dress with short, wavy blonde hair.

  Gut also came up quickly, his eyes staring straight at Kerris.

  Keris frowned slightly, when looking at Anson, forced a smile and said, "Anson, you are just in time, come to see this new batch, the quality is not bad ah."

  Kellys gaze also saw Merlin, but directly ignored, it seems that this is also a woman very obsessed with antiques.

  Anson took three steps and arrived at the shelves, looking at the shelves full of antiques, almost all of which were made of jade.

  For example, Merlin saw on the shelf, a piece of white jade almost the size of the palm of your hand, was actually carved into a fish-headed person, the mouth spouting water in an odd shape.

  There are also some hideous faces, covered with spikes of monsters, holding chains, is pumping some people in different costumes, this kind of portrait, this style of carving, let the layman Merlin are feeling very strange.

  "Tsk, these are all antiques from the time of the Morta Empire."

  Anson has some attainment in antiques and immediately saw the origin of these antiques.

  Keris is holding a somewhat slightly yellow ancient jade, is also carved into a monster model, she frowned to Anson asked: "Anson, this time the antique is a little special, look at the shape, I have not seen this look before, but look at the material, look at the carving style, is indeed another antique of the Morta Empire period, this is certain. "

  Anson also frowned, apparently also some doubts.

  At this time, the middle-aged Nathan on the side opened his mouth and said, "This new shipment is from a ruin in the time of the Morta Empire, and the things found there are all peculiar, one by one, but I guarantee that they are definitely antiques from the time of the Morta Empire."

  Merlin also casually looking at the shelves, he knows nothing about antiques, naturally can not intervene, these antiques, the shape is really strange, in his eyes, not only did not feel a sense of beauty, but also feel some discomfort.

  Most of the shelves are jade products, which is also in line with the style of the Morta Empire period, Merlin continued to look down, in the bottom shelf, in an inconspicuous corner, Merlin saw a somewhat broken relief.

  Yes, the relief, at a glance, was knocked down hard from the building.

  The relief is only palm-sized, carved with a naked man sitting on the ground in an extremely bizarre position.

  Merlin gently picked up the relief and fixed his eyes on some lines on the relief.

  Suddenly, Merlin felt a blur in front of his eyes, he saw the relief in his hands as if "alive" in general, the relief carved naked man, is doing a very bizarre pose step by step.

  "Phew ..."

  Merlin's heart was startled, the illusion in front of him immediately disappeared, his hands still held the bizarre relief, not even the slightest movement.

  "Was it a blur just now? Illusion?"

  Merlin could not help but rub his eyes, and then carefully stare at the relief, especially the relief on the pattern, gradually, the illusion just reappeared, the hand of the relief seems to "come alive" in general, the relief on the naked man, very slowly doing the relief on the very bizarre movements.

  "Merlin, what's wrong with you?"

  Just then, Merlin felt someone holding him behind him, and he immediately came to his senses and found that it was Anson who was holding him.

  At this time everyone looked at Merlin with odd faces, just now they can see, followed by Anson Merlin, holding a piece of relief in his hands, his face changing expressions, his body constantly shaking, seems to faint general.

  "This relief, what do you see?"

  Merlin hurriedly handed the relief to Anson, two hallucinations in a row, then it is definitely not a coincidence, this piece of relief must have problems.

  Anson turned over and looked at the relief, nodded slightly and said, "This relief is also exquisitely carved, and is also an antique from the Morta Empire period, but it looks like it is broken, and there should be more than one such relief, why? You like it?"

  Merlin had been watching Anson and found that there was nothing unusual about Anson at all, so he couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Is that all? You didn't find anything special about this piece of relief?"

  "Special?"

  Anson looked again carefully, then shook his head and said, "It's just a unique shape, I only like the jade products of the Morta Empire period, I don't like this piece of relief."

  With that, Anson handed the cameo back to Merlin.

  And Merlin after the previous panic, at this time has calmed down, he knows very well that just now those are definitely not hallucinations, but everyone here, it seems that in addition to himself, no one else can see the uniqueness of this relief.

  "Am I the only one who can have hallucinations?"

  Merlin couldn't stop playing with the relief in his hands, and although he didn't know exactly what was going on, it was clear that there was something wrong with the relief.

  "Mr. Nathan, how much is this cameo?"

  Merlin wanted to buy the relief and go back to study it more carefully.

  Nathan looked at Anson and said with a slight smile, "Young Master Anson, who is this?"

  Before Anson could answer, Gut grinned next to him and patted Merrill, "Hey, Mr. Nesson, this is Wilson Merrill."

  Nathan's eyes suddenly lit up, although he had not seen Merlin, but Wilson the name is too loud, in Blackwater City, the nobility only so few, Nathan could not be unclear.

  "So it's Young Master Merlin, since Young Master Merlin likes it, we'll charge only the cost price for this relief, ten gold coins!"

  Anson also attached to Merlin's ear and whispered, "Not bad, ten gold coins, a fair price, if you really like this relief, you can buy it."

  Merlin naturally believed Anson, so he nodded and then took out ten gold coins from his pocket and bought the bizarre relief.
