The opposite party is settles on saintess Sir Xinci (kind-hearted) to be kindhearted, will not give up me, thus built this aspect.” Fang Yuan face upwards the deep sigh, felt oneself implicated Xie Hanmo. “这是一个计谋。对方就是看准圣女大人心慈仁厚,不会放弃我,从而营造出了这个局面。”方源仰天长叹,感觉自己拖累了谢晗沫。 Xie Hanmo has swept his one eyes lightly, said with a smile: „Fang Yuan, you do not need to rebuke oneself. If we initially gave up you, that will have saying that my unfeeling rumors and slander, attacks my prestige in the same old way.” 谢晗沫轻扫了他一眼,微笑道:“方源,你不必自责。若是我们当初放弃你,那就会有说我冷酷无情的流言蜚语了,照样是打击我的威望。” „Saintess Sir, to this time, you have not needed to comfort me.” The Fang Yuan forced smile, „the rumors of these two natures, the order of severity is different, can my this everyone being together time is not short, how in not clear this way?” “圣女大人,到了这个时候,你就不必宽慰我了。”方源苦笑,“这两种性质的流言,严重程度根本不同,我这诸位相处时间也不短了,岂会不清楚此中门道？” Xie Hanmo smiled: „Was good, we did not say these, said that these are useless to the aspect.” 谢晗沫笑了笑:“好了,咱们不说这些,说这些对局面无益。” Fang Yuan, the blue scale and scarlet scale guard in abundance complexion changes, actively adjusts the mentality. 方源、蓝鳞、赤鳞侍卫纷纷脸色一变,积极调整心态。 Xie Hanmo continues saying: „Saintess position is not really good to sit, I just started to look up the corruption, some people want to pull from the position me. This was explaining in the Saint courtyard serious of clan old corruption circumstance! everyone does not need to be extremely pessimistic, although holds the sea god sacrifice, but I have not lost the qualifications, isn't that so? To support a saintess, is not that easy matter.” 谢晗沫继续道:“圣女这个位置真的不好坐,我刚开始查贪腐,就有人想要将我从位置上扯下来。这正说明了圣庭中族老贪腐情势之严重!诸位不必太过悲观,虽然是重新召开海神祭,但我也并未失去资格,不是吗？想要扶持出一位圣女,可不是那么容易的事情呢。” The places of some people, have Jiang Hu. 有人的地方,就有江湖。 These words regarding Merpeople, is specially suitable. 这句话对于鲛人而言,也特别适用。 Among Merpeople also exists to manipulate strategically, has the benefit the dispute. 鲛人之间也存在勾心斗角,也存在利益的纠纷。 Saintess position high weight, Merpeople internal influence, if not can support a saintess, in following some time, will receive the incline and attendance in policy surely, gets bigger interests. 圣女位高权重,鲛人内部势力若非能扶持出一位圣女,在接下来一段时间内,必定会受到政策上的倾斜和照顾,获得更大的利益。 Generally speaking, Merpeople young girl who can compete the saintess, often has the deep background, or is standing 1-2 huge influences in its back. 一般而言,能够竞争圣女的鲛人少女,往往都是有着深厚的背景,或者在其背后站着一两个庞大的势力。 ...... …… The seabed holy city, the melodious singing sound stands still gradually, the intense drumbeats one sounds intermittently. 海底圣城,悠扬的歌声渐渐停歇,激烈的鼓点一阵阵敲响。 In the square, only the remaining final several Merpeople young girls, they be not aware of fatigue dance, revealed the great ambition of competition saintess respectively. 广场上,只剩下最后的数位鲛人少女,她们不知疲倦地舞蹈,各自显露出了竞争圣女的雄心。 Fang Yuan stands outside the square, takes a broad view to look, these seven Merpeople young girls each are the beautiful women, some are charming, some youth, some people, some are solemn. 方源站在广场之外,放眼望去,这七位鲛人少女各个都是美人,有的妩媚,有的青春,有的可人,有的端庄。 The square center is huge essence spring, is known as sea Divine Spring, the spring water spout, picks up old Merpeople old granny, she is Grand Elder in this only Merpeople ethnic group. 广场中央是一口巨大的元泉,号称海神泉,泉水喷涌,托起一位年迈的鲛人老嬷嬷,她便是这只鲛人族群中的大族老。 Grand Elder takes a fast look around seven Merpeople young girls, slightly nod, said solemnly: „Saintess first test, petroleum fishes golden needle.” 大族老扫视七位鲛人少女,微微点头,沉声道:“圣女第一关,黑油捞金针。” The voice just fell, immediately more than ten Strength Dao Gu Master, are lifting the giant water jar, marches into the square. 话音刚落,立即就有十几个力道蛊师,抬着巨大的水缸,步入广场。 dōng dōng dōng...... 咚咚咚…… In a series of serious dull thumping sound sounds, seven water jars were placed in the front of seven Merpeople young girls. The giant water jar must be higher than the several fold compared with them, the Merpeople young girls only has to float, can see in the water jar. 一连串的沉重闷响声中,七座水缸摆在了七位鲛人少女的面前。巨大的水缸比她们还要高出数倍,鲛人少女们唯有漂浮上去,才能看见水缸里面。 In the water jar has been filled with rich profound petroleum, the first test test content, must, bail out an ox hair size from petroleum within the given time golden needle. 水缸中是盛满了的浓郁深邃的黑油,第一关的考验内容,就是要在规定的时间内,从黑油中捞出一枚牛毛般大小的金针。 „I request my follower to go on stage.” White Scale Merpeople Su Yi is looking at the present giant water jar, the manner calm said/tunnel. “我要求我的跟随者上场。”白鳞鲛人苏怡望着眼前的巨大水缸,神态从容地道。 „Request authorization.” Grand Elder deeply looked at Su Yi. “请求批准。”大族老深深地望了一眼苏怡。 „Do not be anxious, should not be anxious.” Xia Lin inflates for oneself in the heart unceasingly, likes a cat on hot bricks steps onto the square. “不要紧张,不要紧张。”夏琳在心底不断地为自己打气,局促不安地走上广场。 „What's the matter?

Haven't I misread?” “明明只是二转蛊师,居然能催动五转的蛊虫？我没有看错吧？” „I understood, this must be recently continuously in the insane biography Rank 5 extraction gu.” “我明白了,这应当就是最近一直在疯传的五转采油蛊了。” „Originally this small Merwoman grasps such best quality goods Gu insect, no wonder she will be gathered by Su Yi, becomes her follower!” “原来这位小鲛女掌握这样的极品蛊虫,难怪她会被苏怡招揽,成为她的跟随者呢！” The extraction gu effect is not a lid, a moment later, the water jar, the cylinder bottom is keeping a shining ox hair pintle. 采油蛊效果绝不是盖的,片刻之后,水缸一空,缸底留着一枚金灿灿的牛毛细针。 Audience stir. 全场轰动。 Innumerable say/way burning hot vision, strongly on the body of Xia Lin. 无数道炙热的目光,集中在夏琳的身上。 Xia Lin is more anxious, the whole face blushes, a helpless lovable appearance. 夏琳更加紧张,满脸红晕,一副手足无措的可爱样子。 Su Yi is looking at her, the corners of the mouth have a smile, secretly said in heart: „Gathers her, really yes right.” 苏怡望着她,嘴角含笑,心中暗道:“将她招揽过来,果然是没错。” The first test, Su Yi depends upon the shocking performance of Xia Lin, but limelight does not have two, 第一场考验,苏怡依靠夏琳的惊艳表现而风头无两, The Fang Yuan eye pupil such as the deep deep pool, leaves the square along with the stream of people of breaking up gradually: „The first test, seven candidates have promoted enough six, looked that their performance come prepared. Obviously this test has released the topic ahead of time.” 方源眼眸如深潭,随着散场的人流渐渐离开广场:“首场考验,七位候补晋升了足足六位,看她们的表现都是有备而来。显然这场考验是提前泄了题的。” ...... …… Miserable green flame, in Xie Hanmo at present flaming burns, forms a hot road. 惨绿色的火焰,在谢晗沫的眼前熊熊燃烧,形成一道火路。 Similarly is the White Scale Merwoman autumn frost, walked calmly, stands in the other end of hot road, ridiculing looks at Xie Hanmo: „Former saintess Sir, looked your.” 同样是白鳞鲛女的秋霜,已经从容地走过去,站在火路的彼端,戏谑地看着谢晗沫:“前任圣女大人,看您的了。” „Hateful! This nether fire fires the soul specially, needs to contend with specific Gu insect. We prepare was full, but has not thought of this first test unexpectedly such side door!” “可恶！这幽火专门灼烧魂魄,需要用特定的蛊虫才能抗衡。我们准备的已经非常充分,但没想到这第一场考验居然这么偏门！” „What is more hateful, autumn frost has Gu insect unexpectedly, can contend with nether fire. Is this Luck Qi? Snort! Perhaps already ahead of time knew. This is the cold wave tribe plot, this is scarlet bare bare engaging in malpractice for personal gains!” “更可恶的是,秋霜居然真的备有蛊虫,能抗衡幽火。这是运气？哼！恐怕是早就提前知晓了。这是寒潮部族的阴谋,这是赤・裸・裸的徇私舞弊！” The blue scale and scarlet scale two guards are filled with righteous indignation. 蓝鳞、赤鳞两位侍卫义愤填膺。 „Makes me come.” Before Fang Yuan arrives at the Xie Hanmo body that frowns. “让我来。”方源走到皱着眉头的谢晗沫身前。 „You?” Xie Hanmo limpid such as the vision of water, sizes up Fang Yuan. “你？”谢晗沫清澈如水的目光,打量方源。 „Believes that my one time, I have the energy.” In Fang Yuan eye fine glow twinkle, is looking at Xie Hanmo directly. “相信我一次,我有底气。”方源眼中精芒闪烁,直接望着谢晗沫。 Two people look at each other meeting, finally Xie Hanmo shifted the vision. 两人对视一会,终于谢晗沫转移了目光。 „Absolutely careful, this nether fire not simple...... If cannot support, drew back in the midway.” Xie Hanmo said. “万万小心,这幽火可不简单……若是支撑不住,就在中途退下了罢。”谢晗沫道。 Fang Yuan laughs, suddenly turns around, the starting to walk stride, walks into the middle of nether fire. 方源哈哈一笑,猛地转身,迈开大步,走入幽火当中。 Pain! 痛！ The pinnacle bitterness, bursts out from the deep place of soul, the flash raids the Fang Yuan whole body. 极致的惨痛,从魂魄的深处迸发,一瞬间就袭遍方源全身。 The Fang Yuan whole body play trembles, step by step difficult journey. 方源浑身剧颤,一步步艰难跋涉。 He closes tightly the tooth, bites hemorrhage. 他将牙齿咬紧,咬出血。 He is astounded to look angrily , the eye socket stares to split. 他瞠目怒视,眼眶都瞪裂开来。 His soul was roasted in the flame roasts, the ablation, is good because of him has second to accumulate, is the Demon from Beyond The Heavens status, the nether fire effect to him, must slightly weak in the average man. 他的魂魄在火焰中被炙烤,消融,好在他有着两世积累,又是天外之魔的身份,幽火的效果对他而言,要稍弱于常人。 His midway will not give up, because he knows, but he substitutes Xie Hanmo take action, means that once he is defeated, Xie Hanmo is defeated. 他绝不会中途放弃,因为他知道,但他替代谢晗沫出手,就意味着一旦他失败,谢晗沫就失败。 When he takes the nether fire road finally, the audience is shocked, innumerable say/way shocking vision centralized on his body. 当他终于迈出幽火的路,全场轰动,无数道震惊地目光集中在他的身上。 Innumerable Merpeople change countenance. 无数鲛人动容。 Fang Yuan spells to go all-out to smile diligently, but a moment later, he thoroughly faints. 方源拼尽全力想要努力地笑一下,但下一刻,他就彻底昏死过去。 But when he must fall down the ground, Xie Hanmo catches up promptly, hugs him in the bosom. 但就在他要栽倒到地上的时候,谢晗沫及时赶来,一把将他抱在怀中。 „You could rest assured that I will certainly not disappoint your payout.” Xie Hanmo deeply is looking at Fang Yuan, looks up to the autumn frost. She gentle such as in the double pupil of water, first time presented the cold light. “你放心,我一定不会辜负你的这番付出。”谢晗沫深深地望着方源,又抬头看向秋霜。她温柔如水的双眸中,头一次出现了冷冽的光。 Benefits fights bravely from Fang Yuan's at risk of life, Xie Hanmo surmounted a trap difficulty of careful design. 得益于方源的拼死奋战,谢晗沫跨越了一道精心设计的陷阱难关。 The second test, the third test and fourth test...... 第二场考验、第三场考验、第四场考验…… She advances triumphantly, quick makes other competitors be overshadowed, only has the Merwoman autumn frost to have strength of the wrestling. 她一路高歌猛进,很快就使得其他竞争者黯然失色,唯有鲛女秋霜才有一搏之力。 „So looks like, Sir Xie Hanmo keeps the position of saintess, should be greatly hopeful.” Outside, the Fang Yuan complexion still palely, weakly sits, the facial color is joyful. “如此看来,谢晗沫大人保住圣女的位置,应该是大有希望的。”场外,方源脸色仍旧苍白,虚弱地坐着,面色喜悦。 „This had been lucky you, the Fang Yuan boy, without you performance in first test, we will not arrive at the present.” “这还是多亏了你啊,方源小子,没有你在第一场考验中的表现,我们不会走到现在。” „Hahaha, your boy takes the going too far road successfully, all people almost looked silly. A few days later, you revive, you do not know you still living the news, has shocked in the holy city many Merpeople!” “哈哈哈,你小子成功走过火路,所有人都几乎看傻了。几天后,你又苏醒过来,你不知道你仍旧活着的消息,惊呆了圣城中多少的鲛人！” The blue scale and scarlet scale two guards laugh. 蓝鳞、赤鳞两位侍卫大笑。 Fang Yuan has actually restrained the happy expression: „Is careful, present aspect is favorable for us, but the opposite party will not give up.” 方源却收敛了喜色:“要小心,如今的局面对我们十分有利,但对方绝不会善罢甘休的。” Fang Yuan expects cold wave Patriarch to meet take action, but has not thought in this sinister way. 方源料到寒潮族长会出手,但没想到会以这种阴险的方式。 In the room, the scarlet scale guard kneels on the ground, reddens all over the face: „Saintess Sir, please authorize me to go to battle, scrubs them to my slandering and wrongful treatment. Will I bully how possibly a widow?!” 屋中,赤鳞侍卫跪在地上,满脸通红:“圣女大人,请你批准我出战,洗刷他们对我的诬蔑和冤屈。我怎么可能会欺负一位寡妇？！” Xie Hanmo sighed: „You get up, I know certainly your manner, but at this time the situation obviously is the clever trick of opposite party. If you such impulsive clash, definitely will make the person plot of design prevail.” 谢晗沫叹息:“你起来,我当然知晓你的为人,但此时情况明显是对方的诡计。你若这么冲动地冲出去,必然会令设计的人阴谋得逞。” Blue scale guard whole face anxious look: „This widow is not the common widow, is Saint courtyard predecessor three clan old widow Bu Sulian. Perhaps opposite party idea extremely very ruthless, Supervision Envoy soon will arrive, detains the scarlet scale to interrogate. as a result, the scarlet scale is unable to participate in the following test, our strength will be damaged greatly!” 蓝鳞侍卫满脸愁容:“这位寡妇可不是寻常的寡妇,乃是圣庭前任三族老的遗孀步素莲。对方此计太过狠辣,恐怕监察使不久就会到来,扣押赤鳞加以审讯。如此一来,赤鳞无法参加接下来的考验,我们实力将大为受损！” Fang Yuan then said: „This predecessor three clan old widow Bu Sulian, are willing to discard the reputation unexpectedly, entraps scarlet scale guard. She and cold wave Patriarch this is the person is involves inevitably deeply, the corruption inside story inevitably is very serious, otherwise so will not come out into the open. Since the opposite party can suppose this idea, decides however is the preparation is full, we must clarify the truth constantly, will fall into the middle of the opposite party rhythm. Only makes the best of a bad situation, has a favorable turn.” 方源接着道:“这位前任三族老的遗孀步素莲,居然愿意舍弃名誉,来坑害赤鳞侍卫。她和寒潮族长这一系人必然是牵扯极深,贪腐内情必然是十分严重的,否则绝不会如此赤膊上阵。对方既然能够设下此计,定然是准备充分,我们一味要澄清事实真相,就会落入对方的节奏当中。唯有将错就错,方有一线转机。” „How to make the best of a bad situation?” “如何将错就错？” „Is very simple, makes me take punishment for somebody else.” Fang Yuan indifferently said. “很简单,就让我来顶罪。”方源淡淡地道。 The blue scale and scarlet scale stare big both eyes, stupidly are looking at Fang Yuan. 蓝鳞、赤鳞瞪大双眼,呆呆地望着方源。 „May not.” Xie Hanmo rejects pointedly. “不可。”谢晗沫断然否决。
