night seized the chance to launch an attack, succeeded by luck at one fell swoop.” 顾青山拱手道:“县令大人,这些盗匪喝多了酒,个个醉的不像样子,早失了防备,我也是等到深夜才趁机发难,侥幸一举成功。” A county magistrate facial expression loosen, slow sound

县令神情一松,缓声道:“这几人实力不怎么样,但总是藏在偏僻的山野之中,我们人手有限,一直没有精力去剿灭,这下可算是了却一桩事。” He had a yawn, the facial expression said tiredly: „Congratulates you, Village Guard Gu, on faces head/number of people bounty of robbers and bandits is not a small number, your boy must pay dirt!” 他打了个哈欠,神情倦倦的说:“恭喜你,顾村守,上面对盗匪的人头悬赏可不是一笔小数目,你小子要发横财了！” Gu Qingshan. 顾青山顿了顿。 Unexpected wealth? 横财？ The wealth arrived on oneself not

县令哈哈笑了两声,站起身来,走到那几个人头前,顿下去仔细验看。 „You look, these two people are the bandit chieftains, respective body has dozens human lives, their heads are most expensive ; As for their subordinates, each violated

from now on, next time my specially returning hospitality brother.” 顾青山抱拳道:“多谢刘老哥,今后我可跟你混了,下次我专门回请老哥。” Patrolling Guard Liu laughs, assumes an air of self approbation saying: „Can kill the robbers and bandits, is the skill person, my old Liu likes having the later generation of skill, walks, chooses the weapon.” 刘巡守哈哈一笑,摇头晃脑道:“能杀盗匪,是个本事人,我老刘就喜欢有本事的后辈,走,选兵器去。” In the Gu Qingshan heart concentrates. 顾青山心中一凝。 What killing the robbers and bandits is? 杀盗匪算个什么？ This minor matter unexpectedly repeatedly mentioned by the senior official and colleague, had what fishy? 这种小事竟然被长官和同僚一再提及,难道是有什么蹊跷？ He is

unusual color, said: „Is this sword? I grow up in the mountain village, has never seen such strange weapon.” 顾青山面露稀奇之色,说道:“这就是剑么？我在山村长大,从未见过这样古怪的兵器。” His look is gazing at Void, sees only the rows of scarlet small character continuously to appear: 他眼神注视着虚空,只见一行行猩红小字不断出现: „Grasping the sword must stimulate your strength to awaken.” “握剑必会激发你的力量觉醒。” „Five Elements is undecided, Human World is not steady, all Saint Selection lost the strength in average, if at this moment you awaken, will inevitably bring to the attention of entire Six Paths of Samsara, secretly cross is defeated immediately.” “五行未定,人间未稳,一切圣选之人均丧失了实力,此刻你若觉醒,势必引起整个六道轮回的注意,偷渡立即失败。” „Was sure to remember!” “切记！” Gu Qingshan looks silently, maintaining composure walks toward the one side, puts out a hand to grip a long blade. 顾青山默默看完,不动声色的朝一旁走去,伸手握住一柄长刀。 „The custom uses the blade.” He said. “还是习惯用刀。”他说道。 Patrolling Guard Liu approves the person of same belief: „Naturally, the blade was easiest-to-use, sword thing does not favor wields cuts, the average people cannot use.” 刘巡守赞同道:“当然,刀最好用了,剑这种东西不利于挥砍,一般人都用不惯。” Gu Qingshan conducts the arm the blade in the waist, took to select a standard long bow, then nods toward Patrolling Guard Liu. 顾青山将刀挎在腰间,又取挑了一张制式长弓,便朝刘巡守点了点头。 Patrolling Guard Liu visits him, only thought that he put on leather armor, holds the bow to grasp the appearance quite somewhat imposing manner of blade, to praise sighed: „The bow that right now, your rotten iron blade and goes hunting can lose.” 刘巡守望望他,只觉得他穿了皮甲,持弓握刀的样子颇有几分气势,赞叹道:“这下子,你的那烂铁刀和打猎的弓都可以丢了。” Two people go out, has gone through

Although this courtyard is small, but various thing have it all, even the rice flour seasoning prepared. 这处院子虽小,但各种东西一应俱全,连米面调料都准备好了。 Gu Qingshan relaxes- 顾青山松了口气- Then was always insufficient to have
