Did you forget him to obtain two Red Iron Relic Gu?” “其实想想,也不算突然。你们忘了他得到过两只赤铁舍利蛊吗？” „Yes, entire two Relic Gu, cultivation base was piled completely hardly. Thinks my cultivation time, oh......” “是啊,整整两只舍利蛊,修为完全是被硬堆上去的。想想我修行的时候,唉……” ...... …… Numerous Family Elders not only amazed and has doubts, to this fact some feelings of being caught off guard. 一众家老们既惊诧又疑惑,对这个事实均有些措手不及之感。 „This Fang Yuan, unexpectedly achievement Rank 3! His trivial third grade natural talent, really in such a short time, has such result, is really makes the person unable to expect.” Sits in Ancient Moon's Mo Chen of left first place, in the heart is sighing. “这个方源,居然成就了三转！他区区丙等资质,竟然在这么短的时间里,有这样的成绩,实在是让人料想不到。”坐在左列首位的古月漠尘,心中感叹着。 He thinks for 2-3 years ago, Fang Yuan in the school, has still killed an own bold slave. 他想到两三年前,方源还在学堂时,杀了自家的一个豪奴。 The name of this bold slave, Ancient Moon's Mo Chen did not remember. However afterward, the Fang Yuan broken corpse gives a present, has made the profound impression on him. 这豪奴的名字,古月漠尘已经不记得了。但是事后,方源碎尸送礼,给他留下了深刻的印象。 From that date, he somewhat regards with a special fondness to Fang Yuan. 从那一天起,他就对方源有些另眼相看。 However concerned about his natural talent, he to its had not held the too high hope. 但是碍于他的资质,他一直没有对其抱有太大的希望。 Unexpectedly, he really had today's such achievement! 没成想,他竟然有了今天这样的成就！ According to the system of family, as long as Gu Master achieves Rank 3 cultivation base, was Family Elder of new promote. 按照家族的体制,但凡蛊师达到三转修为,就是新晋的家老。 New Family Elder, inevitably to some old political patterns, a produce impulse. 一个新家老,势必将对旧有的政治格局,产生一股冲击力。 „If I have gathered him ahead of time, this impulse can be adopted by us, must be have the political advantage. Oh, really had been a pity......” thinks of here, Ancient Moon's Mo Chen involuntarily looked at one to the opposite. “如果我提前招揽了他,这股冲击力就能为我所用,必能有政治优势。唉,真是可惜了……”想到这里,古月漠尘不由地向对面瞄了一眼。 His old enemy Ancient Moon's Chi Lian, sits in the right row first place, at this moment gloomy the face, in the eye is also glittering the gloomy unclear ray. 他的老对头古月赤练,就坐在右列首位,此刻也阴沉着脸,眼中闪烁着晦暗不明的光芒。 „On this Fang Yuan, has the secret. Although two Red Iron Relic Gu help, but such quickly promotes Rank 3, including Qing Shu no result.” Ancient Moon's Bo secretly is also considering. “这个方源身上,定有秘密。虽然有两只赤铁舍利蛊帮助,但是这么快晋升到三转,是连青书都没有的成绩。”古月博亦在暗暗思量。 He thinks of adopted son Qing Shu inevitably, in the involuntarily heart sighs. 他不可避免地想到义子青书,不由地心中一叹。 If Ancient Moon's Qing Shu is also living, perhaps must have Rank 3 cultivation base. What a pity, the reality is brutal. 若是古月青书还活着,恐怕也要有三转修为了。可惜,现实残酷啊。 „Medicine hall Family Elder Sir Ancient Moon's Yao Ji to--!” At this moment, gate child loudly sang one suddenly. “药堂家老古月药姬大人到——！”就在这时,门童忽然高唱一声。 Entered an old woman from the entrance, the face whiten, the whole face wrinkle, under eyelid(s) that the peak built sharp-eyed, almost the flash has observed closely Fang Yuan. 从门口走进一位老妪,脸色苍白,满脸皱纹,耸搭的眼皮子底下目光锐利至极,几乎一瞬间就盯住了方源。 Ancient Moon's Yao Ji the half step approaches, while said: „Fang Yuan can you promote Rank 3 unexpectedly? I do not believe! Come, making the old lady I inspect personally, I must examine your aperture!” 古月药姬一边快步走近,一边道:“方源你竟然能晋升三转？我不信！来,让老太婆我亲自检查一下,我要查看你的空窍！” aperture is a Gu Master most important secret and privacy, how possibly so readily to make other people inspect? 空窍是一个蛊师最重要的秘密和隐私,怎么可能如此轻易让他人检查？ Fang Yuan is sideways slightly, looks at Yao Ji walks, involuntarily sneers: „Ancient Moon's Yao Ji, you must inspect my aperture, why?” 方源微微侧身,看着药姬走来,不由地冷笑一声:“古月药姬,你要检查我的空窍,凭什么？” Before, when oneself just cultivation, was receiving the periodic inspection of Academy Elder. However was now different, he is Rank 3 Gu Master, wait/etc. treated as an equal with Academy Elder and medicine hall Family Elder. 以前,自己刚刚修行时,受着学堂家老的定期检查。但是现在不同了,他已经是三转蛊师,和学堂家老、药堂家老等等平起平坐。 Must inspect cultivation base, is very simple. 况且,要检查修为,十分简单。 white silver primeval essence does not counterfeit easily, simultaneously the Rank 3 aura is truly. 白银真元并不容易作假,同时三转的气息是确确实实的。 „Bold! Does your junior also dare to say my name?” Yao Ji stares big both eyes immediately: „Can't I inspect you? Depending on my status, I am medicine hall Family Elder, is your elder!” “大胆！你一个小辈也敢直呼我的姓名？”药姬立即瞪大双眼:“我怎么就不能检查你？就凭我的身份,我是药堂家老,更是你的长辈！” „Snort, Old lady, called you name to you face. Among us the account must calculate well. Formerly you wanted to buy my Wine Insect, I did not sell, you bore a grudge. Unexpectedly wants Nine Leaf Vitality Grass in plunder my hand? Snort, I wanted to trade that three steps fragrant grass gu, you secretly were also preventing me. I now am also Rank 3, you are best to be short the rack before my surface!” “哼,老太婆,叫你名字是给你面子。我们之间的账还得好好算算呢。先前你想要买我的酒虫,我不卖,你就怀恨在心。居然想要收刮我的手中的九叶生机草？哼,我想要换了那棵三步芳草蛊,你也在幕后阻止我。我现在也是三转,你最好少在我面前端架子！” Fang Yuan narrows the eye, the spoken language like the blade. He is very neat, has torn to pieces the face directly. 方源眯起眼睛,言语如刀。他十分干脆利落,直接撕破了脸。 If Rank 1(turn) and Rank 2, he said that this, decides however is suppressed, was attacked by the group. However now his Rank 3 cultivation base, in status has been equal to with Family Elders, the pattern became different. 若是一转、二转,他说这样的话,定然被打压,被群攻。但是如今他三转修为,地位上已经和家老们等同,格局都变得不同了。 Saw that Fang Yuan abuses each other with Ancient Moon's Yao Ji directly, other Family Elder silent have chosen standing by. 看到方源直接和古月药姬对骂,其他家老都沉默地选择了作壁上观。 Places the top digit, the thoughts are deep. Even if no shrewd, meets tempering to leave shrewd to come. 身处高位,都心思深沉。哪怕没有城府,也会锻炼出城府来。 They too had not known about Fang Yuan, happen to can taking this opportunity, the secret observation. 他们对方源还不太了解,正好可以借此机会,暗暗观察。 „Boy you dares to make false accusations!” Ancient Moon's Yao Ji becomes angry out of shame, although the Fang Yuan speech is true, but will she in the presence of everyone acknowledge? “小子你竟敢血口喷人！”古月药姬恼羞成怒,虽然方源说话属实,但她怎么会当众承认？ Family Elders present is silent, silently the development of looks at situation. Although many Family Elder present, knows the Nine Leaf Vitality Grass matter, even has the benefit exchange with Ancient Moon's Yao Ji. 在座的家老们都沉默着,默默地看着事态的发展。尽管在座的许多家老,也都知道九叶生机草的事情,甚至和古月药姬有过利益交换。 However politics, only then the eternal benefit, does not have forever enemy, does not have forever friend. 但是政治嘛,只有永恒的利益,没有永远的敌人,也没有永远的朋友。 Sees Ancient Moon's Yao Ji instead to nip one, Fang Yuan hehe sneers, did not refute unexpectedly. 见古月药姬反咬自己一口,方源呵呵冷笑,竟也不反驳。 In the hall, reverberates the residual sound that Ancient Moon's Yao Ji is curling. 大厅内,回响着古月药姬袅袅的余音。 This old person is the whole body slightly is actually shivering, this type makes her feel own weak silent! 这个老人却是浑身微微颤抖着,这种寂静让她感受到自己的势单力孤！ Different. 不同了。 The situation was different. 情况已经不同了。 If Fang Yuan is only Rank 1(turn) and Rank 2, these Family Elder will jump immediately, with Ancient Moon's Yao Ji stands, jointly punishes Fang Yuan. The high-level authority, does not allow the lower-level challenge! 若方源只是一转、二转,这些家老都会立即跳出来,和古月药姬站在一起,联合制裁方源。高层的权威,绝不容许下层挑战！ But this moment Fang Yuan is Rank 3, Patriarch, although formally had not announced, however the Family Elder status has been settled. Thus, he and Ancient Moon's Yao Ji contradiction, are the high-level internal contradictions. 但此刻方源已经是三转,族长虽然还没有正式宣布,但是家老的身份已经是板上钉钉。这样一来,他和古月药姬的矛盾,就是高层的内部矛盾。 Fang Yuan was new promote Family Elder, was not deep with the foot, does not have the background, but this was also his superiority, barefoot did not fear that put on shoes. 方源是新晋家老,跟脚不深,没有背景,但这也正是他的优势,光脚的不怕穿鞋的。 Reviews Ancient Moon's Yao Ji, she was very old, although governs medicine hall, the position high weight, the personal connection is extremely broad, however this is her weakness. 反观古月药姬,她已经很老了,虽然掌管药堂,位高权重,人脉极广,然而这正是她的弱点。 She was old, could not lose, Yao Lineage successor Yao Le was also missing. Huge benefit that in her hand grasps, making one covet. 她老了,输不起了,药脉的继承人药乐也失踪了。她手中掌握的庞大利益,令人觊觎。 The peace period is good, but now just when wolf tide, even if were Family Elder also has the possibility of death. 和平时期还好,但如今正值狼潮,就算是家老也有死亡之可能。 The turbulent situation, the new person high-rank, old person draws back. 局势动荡,新人上位,老人退下。 This is the time of transformation, Family Elder cannot guarantee oneself will be safe and sound. Even if Patriarch, there is a fallen possibility. 这是变革之期,没有一个家老能保证自己会安然无恙。就算是族长,也有陨落的可能。 A Ancient Moon clan historical, because of wolf tide death Patriarch, and was not infrequent. 古月一族的历史上,因为狼潮而死亡的族长,并不在少数。 Regarding Family Elders, the self-preservation is difficult, does not have the huge benefit, mixes other people's fight busily. 对于家老们来讲,自保都困难,没有天大的利益,更无暇去掺和他人的战斗。 Ancient Moon's Yao Ji felt is thorny. 古月药姬感到了棘手。 In main hall a dreariness. 厅堂里一片沉寂。 For granddaughter's matter, she three days and three nights has not closed the eyes, at this time is standing, an invisible pressure covers her body and mind, making her forehead seep the one layer close cold sweat. 为了孙女的事情,她已经三天三夜没有合眼,此时站着,一股无形的压力就笼罩住她的身心,让她的额头都沁出了一层细密的冷汗。 She felt that she probably is a disabled old wolf, stands in the middle of the pack of wolves alone. 她感觉自己就好像是一只伤残的老狼,孤零零地站在狼群当中。 The surrounding pack of wolves, stands in shadow, is staring at her with the deep quiet green wolf pupil indifferently. 周围的狼群,站在阴影里,用深沉幽绿的狼眸漠然地盯着她。 Stands in her front Fang Yuan, looked like just in the male wolf that in the hunting showed the talent. He is such young, such ambitious, such vigorous strong. 站在她面前的方源,就像是一头刚刚在狩猎中展露头角的雄狼。他是那样的年轻,那样的野心勃勃,那样的矫健强壮。 Really after-- rivers and streams , the wave by the former wave, the first generation new person changes the early man! 真是——江河后浪逐前浪,一代新人换旧人！ At this moment, Ancient Moon's Yao Ji felt oneself were really old. 这一刻,古月药姬感到自己真的老了。 Old old! 苍老年迈！ Her eyelid(s) peak built fiercely, the imposing manner also lowered in gradually. 她的眼皮子耸搭得更厉害了,气势也在渐渐地降下。 When in her heart appears the Ancient Moon Yao Le form, she haunches the dim-sighted old eyes, the imposing manner suddenly rises. 但是当她的心中又浮现起古月药乐的身影时,她强撑起昏花的老眼,气势又陡然升上去。 She opens the mouth saying: „Was Fang Yuan, your three days, why missing? If you do not appear, in the casualty report of medicine hall your name, has arranged in order in dying in battle the Gu Master's list. You have been missing three days and three nights, comes back, has become Rank 3 Gu Master. In this process, actually to have what? hey hey, I believe that some everybody very much interests understand.” 她开口道:“方源,你这三天来,为什么失踪了？如果你不出现,药堂的伤亡报告里都已经将你的名字,列在阵亡蛊师的名单里。你失踪了三天三夜,回来的时候,就成了三转蛊师。这个过程中,究竟发生了什么？嘿嘿,我相信大家对此都很有兴趣了解一番。” Realized that Fang Yuan was not easy to act bashful like before, her tone has relaxed, no longer looked like so was just aggressive. However dismisses the front actually to teach person to be hard to resist, in the words is hiding the treacherous sinister ponder. 认识到方源再不像之前那样容易拿捏,她的语气已经缓和下来,不再像刚刚那么咄咄逼人。但是辞锋却更教人难以抵挡,一番话中潜藏着诡谲的阴险思考。 Is the qualifications is oldest, the politician who places the top digit! 到底是资格最老,身处高位的政客！ Family Elders listened to this saying, each both eyes shine, reveal the obvious interest. Present, no one is the idiot, Fang Yuan promotes Rank 3 suddenly, indeed is passing the fishy. 家老们听了这话,各个双眼发亮,流露出明显的兴趣。在座的,谁都不是蠢货,方源忽然晋升三转,的确透着蹊跷。 After all his third grade natural talent, is known to all. 毕竟他的丙等资质,为人所共知。 The Ancient Moon's Yao Ji words, made numerous Family Elder stand oneself once more. 古月药姬一番话,就让众家老再次站在了自己这边。 However, since Fang Yuan dares so majestically to return, naturally early is prepared. 不过,方源既然胆敢如此堂皇回归,自然早有准备。 Under glare of the public eye, he raises head to laugh: „Old lady, you want to know, I do want to tell you? However...... Visited you dead in the granddaughter so pitiful share, I showed mercy tell you to be good. I for serveral days, in the Chi Lian Family Elder mansion, with heart and soul closed up, attack Rank 3. This, Ancient Moon's Chi Lian Family Elder can definitely testify for me!” 在众目睽睽之下,他仰头哈哈一笑:“老太婆,你想要知道,我就一定要告诉你么？不过……看你死了孙女这般可怜的份上,我就大发慈悲地告诉你好了。我这些天,都在赤练家老的府中,全心闭关,冲击三转。这点,古月赤练家老完全能为我作证！” „What?” Ancient Moon's Yao Ji hearing that, reveals the surprised look immediately. “什么？”古月药姬闻言,顿时流露出吃惊的神色。 Other Family Elder, one by one change countenance, presents various rich complex expressions. 其余的家老,亦是各个动容,呈现出各种丰富复杂的表情。 Instantly, the innumerable both eyes light go to complexion gloomy Ancient Moon's Chi Lian. 霎时,无数双目光都投向脸色阴沉的古月赤练。 This Ancient Moon clan, Chi's lineage heads of household power and influence heaviest two big Family Elder, this time complexion gloomy, almost can drop to launch. 这位古月一族,权势最重的两大家老之一的赤脉家主,此时的脸色更加阴沉,几乎能滴下水来。 But under glare of the public eye, he knows to the people a confession, therefore opens the mouth to say reluctantly: „This matter, indeed is this. Fang Yuan for serveral days, in my mansion in the secret room closed up, I testified for this reason.” 但在众目睽睽之下,他知道必须要给众人一个交代,于是勉强开口道:“这个事情,的确是这样的。方源这些天,都在我府中密室里闭关,我为此作证。” Such remarks, the audience in an uproar. 此言一出,全场哗然。 The Family Elders self-control is very deep, will not kick up a fuss, lost the deportment. The discussion sound that however whispered must have. 家老们涵养很深,不会大吵大闹,失了仪态。但是嘀嘀咕咕的议论声是少不了的。 „Cannot think of Ancient Moon's Chi Lian, unexpectedly and Fang Yuan had the relations!” “想不到古月赤练,居然和方源扯上了关系！” „Does the Fang Yuan's promotion, have the relations with Chi Lian?” “方源的晋升,和赤练有关系吗？” „Perhaps has the connection greatly! Formerly some people did not speculate, Fang Yuan behind had the secret influence to support him. Cannot think that is Chi's lineage.” “恐怕大有关联！先前不是有人推测,方源身后有幕后的势力支持他么。想不到就是赤脉啊。” „Fang Yuan's cultivation can be so fast, perhaps is the investment of Chi's lineage. Fang Yuan is Brother Fang Zheng's, the Chi Lian Family Elder this act significance is profound.” “方源的修行能够如此快速,恐怕是赤脉的投资。方源是方正的哥哥,赤练家老此举意义深远呐。” Some Family Elder were discussing, another Family Elder state of mind tumbled. 一些家老议论着,另一些家老则心绪翻滚。 „This Fang Yuan is not with the young man of foot, he has hired oneself Chi's lineage, later must discretely to him.” “这方源原来不是毫无跟脚的后生,他已经投靠了赤脉,以后务必要谨慎对他。” „Just had not meddled luckily, jumps in Fang Yuan and in the Yao Ji battle.” “幸好刚刚没有插手,跳进方源和药姬的争斗中去。” „Yao Ji was then miserable, she wants to cope with one not to have background Family Elder, has not actually thought that the opposite party background is too solid. Unexpectedly is Chi's lineage!” “药姬这下惨了,她想要对付一个毫无背景的家老,却没想到对方背景太扎实。竟然是赤脉！” Ancient Moon's Yao Ji looks deathly pale incomparably. When she just heard the Ancient Moon's Chi Lian nod acknowledgment, on startled falls back one step, the whole body slightly shivers. 古月药姬脸色惨白无比。她刚听到古月赤练点头承认之时,就惊的后退一步,浑身都微微颤抖起来。 Regarding lonely Family Elder, with coping with Chi's lineage background Family Elder, this completely is two concepts! 对于一个孤单的家老,和对付赤脉背景的家老,这完全是两个概念！ ( to be continued ) （未完待续）
