Chen Ping'an is in trance goes out of the room, arrives at the yard, looks up, scorching sun overhead, the line of sight is especially clear, sky like slipping off a layer upon layer glaze color porcelain embryo, bright and clean person. 陈平安神情恍惚地走出屋子,来到小院,抬头望去,烈日当空,视线尤为清晰,天空如同褪下一层层釉色的瓷胚,光洁可人。 Chen Ping'an detected accidentally the breath somewhat stagnates, then sits on doorstep, concentrates all one's attention on, the both hands ten fingers tie the sword furnace fist pile. 陈平安无意中察觉到呼吸有些凝滞,便坐在门槛上,屏气凝神,双手十指结剑炉拳桩。 After burning a joss stick, Chen Ping'an then feels the aura to be steadily smooth, just about to stands up, the corner of the eye split vision glance, sits doorstep, stares the big eye to look, does not know when the courtyard corner, is lying down peacefully a black stone, world best Sharpening Sword Stone, Dragon Beheading Platform! 一炷香后,陈平安这才感受气息平稳顺畅起来,刚要站起身,眼角余光一瞥,一屁股坐回门槛,瞪大眼睛望去,不知何时院子角落,安安静静躺着一块黑色石头,世间最好的磨剑石,斩龙台！ Chen Ping'an without delay sets out, walks quickly, the squatting lower part of the body looks at carefully carefully, compared with the day officer idol pedestal of former that collapse, was cut tofu the blade probably, a blade gets down, divides into two on direct and straightforward. Chen Ping'an is rubbing the chin, bit by bit moves the position, traded a position to squat, the east, south, west, and north moved, after the buttocks returned to the home position, even more determined, „Bodhisattva nodded” that idol under foot pedestal. 陈平安赶紧起身,快步走去,蹲下身仔细端详,跟之前那座倒塌的天官神像台座相比,好像被人刀切豆腐似的,一刀直直下去,就干脆利落地一分为二。陈平安揉着下巴,一点一点挪位置,换了一个方位蹲着,东南西北挪了一圈,屁股回到原位后,愈发确定,正是“菩萨点头”的那尊神像脚下台座。 This makes Chen Ping'an terrified, although Miss Ning liked speaking some tone very big words, the spoken language that but all her had nothing to do with indifferently, will definitely not have the least bit to counterfeit, she said that reliable unusual Dragon Beheading Platform, can only be able to break out by the Great Sword Immortal flower big price, Chen Ping'an believed firmly without doubt. Then this Dragon Beheading Platform was the long foot, then went into his Chen Ping'an home house? 这让陈平安悚然,宁姑娘虽然喜欢说一些口气很大的话,但是她所有冷眼袖手的言语,绝对不会有半点作假,她说牢固异常的斩龙台,只能被大剑仙花大代价才能劈开,陈平安就确信无疑。那么这块斩龙台是自己长脚了,然后一路跑到他陈平安家宅子？ Now Chen Ping'an already knows that in the world really has the daoist immortal ghost, countless mandrill fine charm, but the stone becomes a ghost, isn't the possibility big? Also, it ran in which family/home also to enjoy a luck, what runs oneself this house besides enduring hardships can also make, has such stupid stone essence? 如今陈平安已经知道世上确有神仙鬼怪,还有不计其数的山魈精魅,但是石头成精,可能性不大吧？再说了,它跑谁家里也能享点福,跑自己这栋宅子除了遭罪还能做什么,有这么笨的石头精吗？ The Chen Ping'an exploratory nature asked: „Hey, can you not speak? Can understand me to speak?” 陈平安试探性问道:“喂,你能说话不？或者能听懂我说话吗？” Naturally cannot. 当然不能。 The youngster of being overly suspicious and fearful sways the head, looks insufficiently. 疑神疑鬼的少年摇晃脑袋,看不够。 Probably before is, that dreamland is extremely clear, Chen Ping'an has not actually recovered consciousness to the present, causes to look that now anything is passing strangely. 大概是之前那个梦境太过真切,陈平安其实到现在还没有缓过来,导致现在看什么都透着古怪。 The minor matter that many had not thought deeply in the past, the skewer in the same place, can convince now probably all of a sudden. 许多当年没有深思的小事,如今串在一起,好像一下子就说得通了。 Mister Qi said that in the world indeed has, Ning Yao has said the grotesqueness and gaudiness of outside world, 齐先生说世上的确有,宁姚更是说过了外边天地的光怪陆离, Even if Old Man Yao, actually had also said fragmentarily, the simple entering mountain incident, many art, Old Man Yao had said that for example these common old tree blocks, may be the Mountain God seat, cannot sit. Added that in the world mountain, regardless of the size, is actually all connected, but has the division of grandparent and grandchild. 哪怕是姚老头,其实也早就零零碎碎说了许多,简简单单的入山一事,有诸多讲究,姚老头曾经说过很多,比如那些个不起眼的老树墩子,有可能是山神的座椅,坐不得。还说天底下的山,无论大小,其实一脉相承,只不过有着祖孙之分。 Chen Ping'an in this moment, is very suddenly curious, wants to know Black Dragon Pearl Grotto-Heaven that the small town is, how can see the complete picture? is or isn't only then crawls to that compared with a Scattering Clouds Mountain higher mountain peak, can take in everything at a glance? 陈平安在这一刻,突然很好奇,很想知道小镇所在的骊珠洞天,到底如何才能看到全貌？是不是只有爬到那座比披云山更高的山峰,才能一览无余？ Chen Ping'an receives the train of thought that looks down that black stone, is thinking must move the blacksmith shop it, Miss Ning definitely has a need for this Sharpening Sword Stone. How to handle the stone as for Miss Ning when the time comes, is chooses itself to sharpen the sword, gives Master Ruan, as helping cast the thank-you gift of sword, Chen Ping'an is in any case indifferent, how his very curious Sharpening Sword Stone sharpens the sword, meeting doesn't rub the hatchet to be similar to oneself? 陈平安收起思绪,低头看着那块黑色石头,想着要把它搬去铁匠铺子,宁姑娘肯定用得着这块磨剑石。至于到时候宁姑娘如何处置石头,是选择自己磨剑,还是交给阮师傅,作为帮忙铸剑的谢礼,陈平安反正无所谓,他只是很好奇磨剑石到底如何磨剑,会不是跟自己磨柴刀差不多？ Chen Ping'an works never slovenly, after setting firm resolve, begins immediately, extends both hands to lift Sharpening Sword Stone upward, can lift to ground inch distances, is somewhat heavy, but is also insufficient unable to move, this is easy to do, Chen Ping'an goes to the room to look for a wicker basket. 陈平安做事情从来不拖泥带水,下定决心之后就立即动手,伸出双手将磨剑石往上抬,能够抬离地面寸余距离,有些沉重,但还不至于搬不动,这就好办,陈平安去屋子找来一只箩筐。 The quick youngster carries the wicker basket to walk in Mud Vase Lane, above Sharpening Sword Stone covers a clothing. 很快少年就背着箩筐走在泥瓶巷,磨剑石之上覆盖一件衣衫。 After going out of Mud Vase Lane, Chen Ping'an discovered that on the avenue the pedestrian is numerous, it is estimated that is that arrive suddenly night, making person to terrify, see Sun now with great difficulty, is thinking thoroughly the tone. Therefore most small town common people leave home, goes out of alley to arrive at the avenue, discusses spiritedly, once for a while some people run hurriedly, shouts Iron Lock Well already to be dried up thoroughly, even that is hanging in the well not to know a lot of years of iron chain, which bastard also to moved out secretly hides at home. Has the young child child of anxious to stir up trouble, three two or three two, jump, the whole face jumps for joy, is saying the accident of that old locust tree tree at sixes and sevens. 走出泥瓶巷后,陈平安发现大街上行人众多,估计是那场突如其来的黑夜,让人瘆得慌,如今好不容易看到了大太阳,就都想着出来透口气。所以绝大多数小镇百姓都离开家门,走出巷弄来到大街,议论纷纷,时不时有人匆忙跑过,嚷嚷着铁锁井已经彻底干枯了,连那条悬挂井中不知千百年的铁链,也给哪家混蛋给偷偷搬走藏在家了。更有唯恐天下不乱的稚童孩子,三三两两,蹦蹦跳跳,满脸雀跃,乱七八糟说着那棵老槐树的变故。 Originally that old locust tree „overnight” eradicates, falls on the avenue, disruption scholartree and with withered and yellow locust tree leaf everywhere, many neighbor common people thought from the beginning do not waste, picked the branches and leaves to go home to light a fire conveniently, some wearies young, was urged by own young married woman reluctant, carried the hatchet to divide to cut thicker scholartree. Has the person to stop, for generations lives in old locust tree tree peripheral small town old man, mostly hates bitterly, occupies this cheap man young married woman lacking virtue to these, shouted abuse directly, there is old man to do best to convince to say old locust tree with the origin of small town, said this tree had Spirit Qi, in all these last few years, even the deadwood crashed also only selected time of quiet time, is not willing to pound in the head/number of people, did not say on crop not good time, the hops of old tree such as the meter/rice, the bellies of how many people filled. 原来那棵老槐“一夜之间”连根拔起,倒在大街上,满地的碎裂槐枝和和枯黄槐叶,一开始很多附近百姓觉得别浪费了,就顺手捡了枝叶回家烧火,一些个惫懒青壮,不情不愿被自家婆姨催促,拎着柴刀去劈砍更粗大一些的槐枝。不是没有人阻拦,祖祖辈辈生活在老槐树周边的小镇老人,大多痛心疾首,对那些占这种缺德便宜的汉子婆娘,直接破口大骂,也有老人苦口婆心说着老槐跟小镇的渊源,说这棵树是有灵气的,这么多年来,连枯枝坠落也只挑夜深人静的时候,不愿砸在人头上,更不说每逢收成不好的时候,老树的槐花如米,填饱了多少人的肚子。 No matter with. 不管用。 These young men ignore either, cuts trees down by all means earnestly, the temperament is poor, had the conflict with old man, pushes and shoves. In brief is a little chaotic. 那些青壮男人要么不理不睬,只管埋头砍树,脾气差一点的,就跟老人起了冲突,推推搡搡。总之有点乱。 After hearing old locust tree tree that side sound, Chen Ping'an at the back of wicker basket, indecisive, slows down the footsteps, three steps turn head, looks to the old locust tree direction. The intuition told him to go to that side the locust tree to take a look, but the heart the sound, making his without delay go to the blacksmith shop. 听到老槐树那边的动静后,陈平安背着箩筐,犹豫不决,就放慢脚步,三步一回头,望向老槐方向。直觉告诉他应该去槐树那边瞅瞅,但是心底又有一个声音,让他赶紧去铁匠铺子。 He sees a wind general clever form suddenly, brushed past from own side, is little girl who wears the scarlet cotton-wadded jacket, making one not know whether to laugh or cry is on the small daughter shoulder, carries one thickly such as scholartree of young arm, scholartree and the others were long, the little girl footsteps, with wheel, vividly are very fast smart-alecky. 他突然看到一个风一般的灵巧身影,从自己身边擦肩而过,是个身穿大红棉袄的小女孩,让人哭笑不得是小闺女肩膀上,扛着一根粗如青壮手臂的槐枝,槐枝等人长,小女孩脚步飞快,跟车轱辘似的,活泼俏皮得很。 Chen Ping'an recognizes her, is that coming and going freely little girl, round trip like wind, likes loitering in the small town everywhere, she is from an exchange of blows friendship grows with Gu Can, a short time ago had met in Azure Ox Back, she follows side these daoist immortal character, probably is especially good with that young Daoist Nun relations, Chen Ping'an also gives her small snake bluestone. 陈平安一眼就认出她,是那个独来独往的小女孩,来去如风,喜欢在小镇四处逛荡,她跟顾粲属于不打不相识,前不久在青牛背又见过一面,她跟在那些神仙人物身边,好像跟那位年轻道姑关系尤其好,陈平安还送给她一块小蛇胆石。 Chen Ping'an without delay makes noise to shout her, the red cotton-wadded jacket little girl has turned the head, after seeing is Chen Ping'an, cracks into a smile, the autumn waters eye pupil that a pair can speak, was saying probably you had the matter to say quickly, I am listening, I must be busy ant moving! 陈平安赶紧出声喊她,红棉袄小女孩转过头,看到是陈平安后,咧嘴一笑,一双会说话的秋水眼眸,好像在说你有事快说啊,我听着呢,我还要忙着蚂蚁搬家！ Chen Ping'an bears smile, beckons saying: „I discussed a matter with you, most delayed your a while.” 陈平安忍住笑,招手道:“我跟你商量个事,最多耽误你一会儿。” The scarlet cotton-wadded jacket little girl, carries the branch to run over vigorously and resolutely, is sideways slightly, she raised the head, some doubts. 大红棉袄小女孩,扛着树枝就雷厉风行地跑过来,微微侧身,她抬起头,有些疑惑。 Chen Ping'an asked: „This section of branch, you move from the old locust tree tree?” 陈平安问道:“这截树枝,你是从老槐树那边搬来的吧？” The little girls make an effort to nod, the regret said: „Not the quick point words, must be snatched up. My strength is small, can only be able to move selects in a big way, I strive to run several.” 小女孩使劲点头,遗憾道:“不快一点的话,要被人抢光了。我力气小,只能搬得动这么点大的,我争取多跑几趟。” The Chen Ping'an thoughts racing, the exploratory nature asked: „Your family, if that side Good Luck and Fortune Street, that were far, if you trust me, can first place my family courtyard scholartree, like this you can run back and forth several.” 陈平安心思急转,试探性问道:“你家如果是在福禄街那边,那就远了,你如果信得过我,可以先把槐枝放在我家院子,这样你就可以来回多跑几趟。” The little girls weigh the advantages and disadvantages silently, earnest consideration at the same time, she has been observing the Chen Ping'an look and complexion, thought probably Chen Ping'an does not have the evil heart, she nods saying: „What do you want me to make? Beforehand reaches an agreement, I may shoulder the motionless too big branch, sinks very much, my present shoulder is a little burning down probably.” 小女孩默默权衡利弊,认真思量的同时,她一直在观察陈平安的眼神和脸色,大概是觉得陈平安没坏心,她点头道:“那你要我做什么？事先说好,我可扛不动太大的树枝,很沉的,我现在肩膀就有点像是火烧着了。” Chen Ping'an pulls out one bunch of keys, takes off, gives the little girl, „this is the my family courtyard door key, you take. I do not want you to make anything, but lets you snatch a locust tree time, having a look at the ground to have not changed the yellow green leaf, some words remember that helps me receive.” 陈平安掏出一串钥匙,摘下其中一把,递给小女孩,“这是我家院门的钥匙,你拿着。我不要你多做什么,只是让你抢槐树枝的时候,看看地上有没有没有变黄的绿色树叶,有的话就记得帮我收起来。” She had not received the key, stares the big eye, „this?” 她没有接过钥匙,瞪大眼睛,“就这？” Chen Ping'an said with a smile: „Right, this. Do you know the my family place?” 陈平安笑道:“对,就这个。你知道我家地方吧？” She un, „near Mud Vase Lane left hand several, the 12 th house.” 她嗯了一声,“泥瓶巷左手边数起,第十二个宅子。” She had not received the key finally, „your family that side courtyard wall is not high, I can put gently scholartree, does not need to open courtyard door.” 她最后还是没有接过钥匙,“你家那边院墙不高,我可以把槐枝轻轻放进去,不用打开院门。” Chen Ping'an receives the key, red cotton-wadded jacket girl already turns around to dash to depart. 陈平安才收起钥匙,红棉袄女孩已经转身飞奔离去。 Chen Ping'an thought that she looks like who walk into the mountain, she drops from house to house, he goes over hill and dale. 陈平安觉得她就像是进了山的自己,她是走街穿巷,他是翻山越岭。 Chen Ping'an goes out of the small town, continuously toward south, wait until he close to „covered bridge” time, discovered with amazement covered bridge disappears. 陈平安走出小镇,一直往南,等到他靠近“廊桥”的时候,骇然发现廊桥不见了。 already restores in the middle of memory that old-fashioned stone arch bridge. 已经恢复成记忆当中的那座老旧石拱桥。 Why does not know, although covered bridge brand-new atmosphere, but also is hanging the gold/metal character inscribed horizontal tablet of bright eye, but Chen Ping'an likes the present old bridge. 不知为何,廊桥虽然崭新大气,还挂着亮眼的金字匾额,可陈平安还是喜欢眼前的老桥。 Chen Ping'an stand stone bridge bridge head, without the reason remembers that unable to explain dream, the deep breath one breath, steps onto the pitch slowly. 陈平安站在石桥这一头,没来由想起那个无法解释的梦,深呼吸一口气,缓缓走上斜坡。 Close to the bridge center, Chen Ping'an is anxious, sweated profusely, streaming with sweat, but he has arrived at arched bridge that head, does not have any matter happened, Chen Ping'an self-ridicules smiles, speeds up the step to walk toward the blacksmith shop. 越是临近桥中央,陈平安就越是紧张,本就大汗淋漓,更加汗如雨下,只是等他一直走到了拱桥那一头,也没有任何事情发生,陈平安自嘲一笑,加快步子往铁匠铺子走去。 - -- That side Azure Ox Back, Old Man Yang sits in the azure rock cliff edge, is smoking the tobacco smoked dry in gulps. 青牛背那边,杨老头坐在青色石崖边缘,大口大口抽着旱烟。 The puddle of old man under foot, the ripples are intermittent, are sparkling lake, under the water surface, has water plant large bundle to sway probably, under Sun, still passed one unable to explain gloomy treacherous. 老人脚下的水潭,涟漪阵阵,波光粼粼,水面之下,好像有大把大把的水草在摇晃,大太阳底下,仍是透着一股无法言喻的阴森诡谲。 On the water surface, gradually appears a fuzzy old woman face, but she has a crow azure hair, blooms in the water, at this time old woman looks grief-stricken, trembling sound said: „Great Immortal, I really do not dare to approach that side last night, I tried several times, a past looked like sneaked in the wok with cooking oil, compared with being cut to pieces also uncomfortably, Great Immortal, you forgave slightly, really did not have the means.” 水面上,逐渐浮现出一张模糊的老妪面孔,但是她却拥有一头鸦青色的头发,在水中绽放,此时老妪如丧考妣,颤声道:“大仙,昨夜我是真的不敢靠近那边啊,我试了好几次,一过去就像是钻进了油锅,比千刀万剐还难受,大仙,你就饶过小的吧,实在是没有办法啊。” Old Man Yang said indifferently: „I am not send a punitive expedition, you later are also the same, only needs to handle matter in one's power, is unambiguous, was OK. However now the chance of a lifetime, are placed in front of you, looked that yourself do dare to strive.” 杨老头冷漠道:“我不是来兴师问罪的,你以后也一样,只需要做力所能及的事情,不含糊,就可以了。不过现在有一个千载难逢的机会,摆在你面前,就看你自己敢不敢争取了。” The old woman quiet green face sways, the ghost who along with the water could not say air/Qi densely, heard that Great Immortal to intend for oneself to direct a bright road, without delay adopts the stance of listening in reverent attention. 老妪幽绿色的脸庞随水晃荡,说不出的鬼气森森,听到那位大仙有意为自己指点出一条明路,赶紧摆出洗耳恭听的姿态。 old man said slowly: „Now small Grotto-Heaven already falls the world slowly, borders on with the land, is in the crucial phase of air planting, before long, must with Great Li dynasty domain brothers, you only be able to be called River Matron, rather than River God, looks like in the secular dynasty, you were still only did not enter the pure running water rank petty official, has not obtained the person in office truly, a difference, huge difference.” 老人缓缓说道:“如今小洞天已经缓缓落回人间,跟大地接壤,正处于落地生根的关键时期,过不了多久,就要与大骊王朝版图同气连枝,你之所以只能被称为河婆,而不是河神,就像是在世俗王朝,你仍然只是个不入清流品秩的胥吏,并未真正获得官身,一步之差,天壤之别。” He uses the old smoke pole toward stone arch bridge that side one finger/refers, „the reason for this is that the root does not lie in your district of jurisdiction is small, but lay in your domain cut off around the middle, found that bridge not to have, will be it cut off your future burning incense, you want to be able from the bridge bottom downstream in the past, to be able now to have a big future. Your small stream, will become the sources of many important rivers in the future, let alone is a black hair length is about several hundred li (0.5 km) inferior River God, by the Great Li imperial edict to seal/confer Weijiang god, was sent the silk is several thousand miles, is not difficult.” 他用老烟杆往石拱桥那边一指,“之所以如此,根源不在于你辖境小,而在于你的地盘被拦腰斩断了,瞧见那座桥没,就是它把你的未来香火斩断了,你现在只要能够从桥底下游过去,就能有一份大前程。你所处的这条小溪,将来会成为许多重要河流的源头,别说是一头青丝长不过数百里的下等河神,就是被大骊敕封为江神,发丝长达几千里,也不难。” The old woman eyeball rotates slightly. 老妪眼珠子微微转动。 Old Man Yang did not urge, said with a smile: „In mud lies down is also being actually comfortable, is right, why wants others to hold, is right?” 杨老头也不催促,笑道:“烂泥里躺着其实也蛮舒服的,对不对,为什么要别人扶起来,对不对？” Before old woman, has timid intent not to dare one should , at this time hears taunting of Great Immortal, knows in the heart wonderfully, does not beg for mercy immediately, deep deep pool creek water turns immediately wells up. 老妪之前心生怯意不敢一口应下,此时听到大仙的冷嘲热讽,心知不妙,立即讨饶,深潭溪水顿时翻涌。 old man is aloof, said indifferently: „Is the loach that continues to make to fawn and obsequious, changes into the river flood dragon that assumes a side water transportation, depends on this. Also, how do not forget me is you to tell initially, this road, without the road back may walk, can only a say/way arrive black, the good deed that in the world has not gotten it over and done, said that coarse, the small town common people who can have the reward for good works, but how is not one's turn you.” 老人无动于衷,淡然道:“是继续做摇尾乞怜的泥鳅,还是化为坐镇一方水运的河蛟,在此一举。还有,别忘了当初我是怎么跟你说的,这条路,没有回头路可走,只能一条道走到黑,天底下没有一劳永逸的好事,说句难听的,小镇百姓谁都可以有善报,但是如何也轮不到你。” That Divine Ability general Great Immortal, more are so serene, River Matron old woman more beats a drum at heart, finally clenches teeth ruthlessly, sneaks in the water swiftly and violently. 那位神通广大的大仙,越是如此云淡风轻,河婆老妪越是心里打鼓,最后狠狠一咬牙,迅猛潜入水中。 A moment later, the old woman form disappears does not see, however in creek water between Azure Ox Back and stone arch bridge, probably one wipes the quiet green shadow, crooked to downstream. 片刻之后,老妪身影消失不见,但是在青牛背和石拱桥之间的溪水中,好像有一抹幽绿暗影,歪歪扭扭向下游。 This shadow after the stone arch bridge, the speed slows down, finally is the turtle delimits the water to be the same simply. 这道暗影临近石拱桥后,速度放缓,最后简直就是乌龟划水一般。 From stone arch bridge that deep deep pool also more than ten zhang (3.33 m), the River Matron old woman form accelerates suddenly, obviously is search for riches and honor within danger, must wrestle at risk of life. 距离石拱桥那座深潭还有十余丈,河婆老妪的身影骤然加速,显然是富贵险中求,要拼死一搏了。 A roaming. 一游而过。 Opening access. 畅通无阻。 After the old woman one breath runs out of dozens zhang (3.33 m), the underwater form hit a spin, to congratulate to be survivor of disaster, rotate unrestrainedly, one group of black hair twine that already the skinny body of no flesh. 老妪一口气冲出数十丈后,水下身影打了一个旋,为了庆贺劫后余生,情不自禁地一圈圈转动起来,一团青丝缠绕那具已无血肉的干瘦躯壳。 This River Matron stands hovering in the middle of creek water, looks up to that bedstone arched bridge, finally saw that old sword strip clearly. 这位河婆站直悬停在溪水当中,抬头望向那座石拱桥,终于清清楚楚看到了那把老剑条。 As before rusty stain stained, when with her is the infancy, young when young married woman sees, not least bit difference. 依旧锈迹斑斑,跟她还是孩提时、年少时、少妇时所见,并无半点异样。 However next quarter, but looked at old sword strip River Matron old woman, a pair of eyes bead explodes at the scene. 但是下一刻,只是多看了老剑条这一眼的河婆老妪,一双眼珠子当场爆裂。 Wailing. 哀嚎。 creek water tumbles, the spray is intermittent. 溪水翻滚,浪花阵阵。 For a long time later, this small stream restores finally uneventfully, old woman gave birth to an eye, but she becomes the aura emaciated, the ear bank resounds that Great Immortal voice, „others are not rare pay attention to you, naturally your ancestor braves the light smoke, do not reach out for a yard after taking an inch. Later after stone bridge time, was sure to remember that do not gain ground.” 许久之后,这一段小溪总算恢复风平浪静,老妪重新生出了一双眼睛,但是她变得气息孱弱,耳畔响起那位大仙的嗓音,“人家不稀罕理睬你,那是你祖上冒青烟,你别得寸进尺。以后经过石桥的时候,切记不要抬头了。” old woman speaks haltingly said: „Does not dare, does not dare.” 老妪嚅嚅喏喏道:“不敢了,再也不敢了。” The Old Man Yang voice transmits spookily, „you swim away by all means downward, give a try where can swim arrives. After that blacksmith's shop time , should not be wild. However does not need too to be worried, your existence, can make this creek water especially ‚gloomy’, once expedites the nymph , helping cast the sword to quenching, therefore that Master Ruan, will not feel embarrassed you. If you work assiduously, could not say that others also meet gives free residence your destiny. Although Black Dragon Pearl Grotto-Heaven disrupted, Spirit Qi overflows to scatter in all directions rapidly, but on generally can also continue 30-40 years, Master Ruan the position of Saint, consolidates very much, to him, instead is the good deed.” 杨老头的嗓音幽幽传来,“你只管往下游去,试试看能游到哪里。经过那座铁匠铺的时候,也别太猖狂。不过不用太担心,你的存在,能够让这条溪水变得尤为‘阴沉’,一旦催生出水精,有利于铸剑淬炼,所以那位阮师,不会为难你。你要是做事勤勉,说不得人家还会施舍给你一点机缘。骊珠洞天虽然碎裂了,灵气迅速流溢四散,可大抵上还能延续个30-40年,阮师的圣人之位,稳固得很,对他来说,反而是好事。” old woman relaxes, flatters: „Respectfully follows the Great Immortal method aim.” 老妪松了口气,谄媚道:“谨遵大仙法旨。” Azure Ox Back, some people said a word full are admiring, „senior big Divine Ability , can actually the imperial edict seal side River Matron, the key was can also not alarm the Heavenly Dao.” 青牛背这边,有人言语中满是钦佩,“前辈好大的神通,竟然能够自行敕封一方河婆,关键是还能够不惊扰到天道。” Old Man Yang still maintains the original sitting posture, does not transfer, sneers saying: „River Matron, with River God, one character difference, difference of cloud mud. Can your scholar ?” 杨老头依然保持原先的坐姿,头也不转,冷笑道:“河婆,和河神,一字之差,云泥之别。你这种读书人,会不懂？” The studying seed of future Viewing Lake Academy greatest, Cui Minghuang, he should be able to be last outsider who leaves this place. 来者正是观湖书院最大的读书种子,崔明皇,他应该会是最后一位离开此地的外乡人。 This abundant divine jade bright handsome scholar, said with a smile: „already was very shocking. In breaks on the top-grade goods, the branch has the alley forcefully, this grade of writing skill, being beyond control younger generation does not admire.” 这位丰神玉朗的英俊书生,笑道:“已经很骇人听闻了。在一条断头路上,硬生生岔出小路来,这等手笔,由不得晚辈不佩服。” Old Man Yang asked indifferently: „Does boy, you know my status?” 杨老头淡然问道:“小子,你知道我的身份？” Cui Minghuang shakes the head to say with a smile: „Mountain Lord has not informed beforehand, but I guess correctly a clue reluctantly.” 崔明皇摇头笑道:“山主事先并未告知,但是我勉强猜出一点端倪。” Old Man Yang did not say patiently: „Urges to go faster, your boy also unqualified discussed with me, changes into your Mountain Lord also almost.” 杨老头不耐烦道:“去去去,你小子还不够格与我谈,换成你们山主还差不多。” Cui Minghuang not only has not departed, instead sits in Azure Ox Back, before taking a seat, does not forget to put out a hand the waist jade pendant cautiously to pull, in order to avoid hits on rock cliff, he looks up does not have the deep blue sky of shade again, said in a soft voice: „Has exceedingly high cultivation base spatially, to protect this Black Dragon Pearl Grotto-Heaven, does not make the Heavenly Dao infiltrate some, is the least bit is not willing to put forth unexpectedly, to can only depend on two this life characters finally, dies to support truly finally. Yang old gentleman, you said that our Mister Qi, what attempts?” 崔明皇非但没有离去,反而在青牛背席地而坐,落座之前,不忘伸手将腰间玉佩小心翼翼挽住,以免撞击在石崖上,他抬头望着再无遮拦的蔚蓝天空,轻声道:“空有一身通天修为,为了护住这座骊珠洞天,不让天道渗透进来些许,竟是半点也不愿使出,到最后只能靠两个本命字,真正死撑到最后。杨老先生,你说我们这位齐先生,到底图什么？” old man is smoking, the look is gloomy. 老人只是抽着烟,神色阴沉。 Cui Minghuang muttered: „If Fig. ‚recognizes and develop one's being for the people’, that also owed, he is Qi Jingchun, Mountain Cliff Academy Mountain Lord, the proud disciple of Confucianism's fourth Saint, his life, will trade next life of 5,000-6,000 ordinary people next life, cost-effective? I do not look cost-effective, conversion is I, cannot do absolutely.” 崔明皇喃喃道:“若是图一个‘为生民立命’,那也太亏了,他是齐静春啊,山崖书院的山主,儒教第四圣的得意弟子,他的一条命,换来5,000-6,000凡夫俗子的来生来世,划算吗？我看不划算,换成是我,绝对做不来。” Old Man Yang puts out smog, „your saying , can only talk incessantly with me, otherwise passes on, your whole life do not think, when academy Mountain Lord. Looked in you first said in several innermost thoughts shares, do we chat casually?” 杨老头吐出一口烟雾,“你这话,也就只能跟我唠叨,要不然传出去,你这辈子也别想当书院山主。看在你先说了几句心里话的份上,咱们随便聊聊？” The scholars smile saying: „That is indeed good, the younger generation wishes for earnestly.” 读书人微笑道:“那敢情好,晚辈求之不得。” old man is looking at the water surface, „before then, I want to ask your question.” 老人望着水面,“不过在这之前,我想问你一个问题。” The Cui Minghuang nod said: „Senior asked then.” 崔明皇点头道:“前辈问便是了。” old man said slowly: „Compels that only seeking death position Qi Jingchun step by step, is or isn't your writing skill?” 老人缓缓道:“一步步把齐静春逼到那个唯有求死的境地,是不是你的手笔？” Cui Minghuang first stares, immediately smiles bitterly, finally self-ridicules saying: „Senior did is or isn't too look at me high?” 崔明皇先是一愣,随即苦笑,最后自嘲道:“前辈是不是太高看我了？” Old Man Yang has not turned the head, bunch of smog curl to raise before the old man body, „my other skill does not have, to watch the will of the people incident, but also is passable. Therefore you should not come to here.” 杨老头没有转头,一团团烟雾在老人身前袅袅升起,“我别的本事没有,看人心一事,还算凑合。所以你不该来这里的。” Cui Minghuang explained with a smile: „Even if late calculates, from my Confucianism fourth Saint in the Culture Shrine position's first drop, takes the beginning by this, that was also the 80 years ago things, can I the 30 year-old, how convince now?” 崔明皇笑着解释道:“哪怕是晚一些来算,从我儒家第四圣在文庙位置第一次下降,以此作为开端,那也是八十年前的事情了,我如今不过而立之年,怎么说得通？” old man has turned the head, beaming said: „Your meaning, yes said oneself come to here to take the town/subdues country jade jade tablet fortunately, bumps into this massacre fortunately, is the yellow mud to fall in the pants crotch, isn't the excrement is also the excrement?” 老人转过头,笑眯眯道:“你的意思,是说自己不过凑巧来这里取走镇国玉圭,又凑巧碰上这桩惨案而已,属于黄泥巴落在裤裆里,不是屎也是屎？” Cui Minghuang is calm and composed, says with a smile: „Human affairs is variable, curious coincidence.” 崔明皇神色自若,笑道:“世事无常,无巧不成书。” Old Man Yang hehe is smiling, false smile. 杨老头呵呵笑着,皮笑肉不笑。 Cui Minghuang is not willing to continue to waste, comes straight to the point saying: „Younger generation has only one in mind to that Scattering Clouds Mountain, hopes it as a new academy address, the younger generation comes this is a guest, does in Rome as Rome does, in emotion in reason, should greet with Old Senior Yang. Does not know that what the senior does have to request?” 崔明皇不愿继续空耗下去,开门见山道:“晚辈对那座披云山情有独钟,希望将它作为一座新书院的地址,晚辈来此是客,入乡随俗,于情于理,都应该跟杨老前辈打声招呼。不知道前辈有什么要求？” Old Man Yang is wrinkling the face, keeps silent. 杨老头皱着脸,默不作声。 Cui Minghuang does not seem to dare to urge old man arbitrarily, sets out slowly, said in a soft voice: „Senior felt relieved, so long as a senior day does not nod, academy one day of younger generation does not dare to begin the project. If which day of senior feels this matter to be feasible, can make the kiln service oversee the manufacture of that side the yamen, passed message to Viewing Lake Academy Cui Minghuang then.” 崔明皇似乎不敢擅自催促老人,缓缓起身,轻声道:“前辈放心,只要前辈一天不点头,晚辈的书院就一天不敢破土动工。如果哪天前辈觉得此事可行,可以让窑务督造衙署那边,捎句话给观湖书院崔明皇即可。” Old Man Yang un, had not been aloof beside. 杨老头嗯了一声,没有拒人千里之外。 Cui Minghuang bows in salute to say goodbye. 崔明皇作揖告辞。 Compares in River Matron old woman this small Go piece, whether the genuine achievement god position, is Viewing Lake Academy must in the Great Li dynasty, seeks together the administrative enclave on Chinese chess, selected that Scattering Clouds Mountain, actually old man is not quite careful to these, because not lifts the weight. 相较于河婆老妪这种小棋子,能否真正成就神位,还是观湖书院要在大骊王朝,寻求一块围棋上的飞地,选中了那座披云山,其实老人对这些并不太上心,因为无举轻重。 Matter that old man cares about only, was that night of Qi Jingchun to covered bridge, what said with Ruan Qiong, finally he sat in covered bridge one night alone, after dawn set out to return to the small town, during that what Qi Jingchun also said that what made? 老人唯一在意的事情,是那夜齐静春到了廊桥,与阮邛说了什么,最后他独自坐在廊桥一夜,天亮之后才起身返回小镇,在那期间,齐静春又到底说了什么,做了什么？ old man carries the old smoke pole to stand up, scolded in a low voice: „Does not have one is to let the person is free from worry.” 老人拎着老烟杆站起身,低声骂道:“就没一个是让人省心的。” - -- In the school, four untaught children look at each other in blank dismay. 学塾内,四个蒙童面面相觑。 The children have not seen Mister Qi, instead is that probably all year round in the uncle of sweeping the floor, exchanged one with Mister Qi attire similar confucian garment, the waist was hanging a jade pendant, the efflorescence hair tidied up neatly, wore tall hat, old man sits in originally the Mister Qi position, told four children, Mister Qi already resigns from school teacher and academy Mountain Lord, therefore later was led that to study away from home by him. 孩子们没有见到齐先生,反而是那位好像一年到头都在扫地的老大爷,换上了一身跟齐先生装束相似的儒衫,腰间悬挂了一枚玉佩,霜白头发收拾得整整齐齐,头戴高冠,老人坐在原本齐先生的位置上,告诉四个孩子,齐先生已经辞去教书先生和书院山主,所以之后就由他来带领那趟游学。 Goes out travelling far, was Mister Qi has reached an agreement with the children, in their family/home the elder also nodded to comply. 出门远游一事,是齐先生跟孩子们早就说好的,他们家中长辈也都点头答应下来。 old man no longer saw the past benign countenance, the imposing manner was dignified, asks: „Li Baoping? Why doesn't have to come to go to school?” 老人不复见以往的慈眉善目,气势威严,问道:“李宝瓶呢？为何没有来上学？” Cunning Li Huai, usually does not cope with that red cotton-wadded jacket, immediately informs saying: „On road that Li Baoping comes, heard that the old locust tree tree, must run to join in the fun but actually, I cannot hold on her, her temperament is bad, how I urged not to listen, she must begin to hit the person.” 鬼头鬼脑的李槐,平时就跟那个红棉袄不对付,立即告密道:“李宝瓶来的路上,听说老槐树倒了,就非要跑去凑热闹,我拉不住她,她脾气差得很,我怎么劝都不听,她还要动手打人呢。” Other three untaught child respective unstated criticism, Li Huai is really with his mother, the lie through the teeth ability, is fiercer than anyone. 其余三个蒙童各自腹诽,李槐真是随他娘,睁眼说瞎话的能耐,比谁都厉害。 old man turns the head to say to a little girl of sheep's-horn braids: „You shouted Li Baoping to come back, we must leave the small town today.” 老人转头对一个扎羊角辫的小女孩说道:“你去喊李宝瓶回来,我们今天就要离开小镇。” The little girls, some stood up grudgingly, slightly runs to leave the school. 小女孩哦了一声,有些不情愿地站起身,小跑离开学塾。
