In the morning fell thick frost, the water puddle surface has formed the glazed frost, noontime, the frost disappearing undermelting, the sunlight even had the midsummer residual heat, two duellists entered the location, this was the time of not most suitable assassination, to both sides was actually similarly fair. 早晨降了一层厚厚的霜,水洼表面结成了薄冰,午时,霜消冰融,阳光甚至带有盛夏的余温,两名决斗者进入场地,这是最不适合暗杀的时刻,对双方却是同样公平。 The apprentices who the black clothes wears a mask defend in the wooden blade lane, cannot see inside situation basically, they waited for, like two flocks of loyal dogs, believes firmly, when some side leader died, oneself smell the fragrance of blood of Killer(s) immediately. 黑衣蒙面的学徒们守在木刀巷,基本看不到里面的情况,他们只是等待,像两群忠诚的狗,确信当某一方领袖死去时,自己会立刻嗅到杀手之血的香味。 Even if the duel continues again for one month, they also proximally, this likely will be one to the ceremony that the god will offer sacrifices, even if believing, were not surrounded among confused crazy letter, does not dare to act rashly disrespects slightly. 即使决斗再持续一个月,他们也会寸步不离地等下去,这像是一场向神献祭的仪式,即使是不信者,被包围在迷乱的狂信者当中,也不敢轻举妄动稍有不敬。 Gu Shenwei only brought a handle slender blade, after entering the ruins, immediately when follows the lower part of wall to go forward, is careful, meets the brick rubble circles, after vegetation clump of cover, rather advance by creeping, does not bump to fall a piece of withering leaf, now has not left behind the trace lures the enemy the time. 顾慎为只带了一柄狭刀,进入废墟之后立刻顺着墙根前进,小心谨慎,遇到砖头瓦砾时绕过去,经过茂密的草木丛时,宁可匍匐前进,也不碰落一片萎叶,现在还不是留下痕迹吸引敌人的时候。 The circle little reduction, Gu Shenwei understood in advance has nine to establish the excellent place of trap, this discovers five also good positions, but by the sign of fudging, Wild Horse is not very been intelligent, will not choose the place that these Killer(s) all know. 圈子一点点缩小,顾慎为事前了解到有九处设置陷阱的绝佳地点,这回又发现五处也不错的位置,但是都没有被动过手脚的迹象,野马很聪明,不会选择这些杀手皆知的地点。 The time little in the past, high noon the warm Xu's sunlight has become remembers, the late autumn chill in the air from underground raises slowly, has quickly seized the complete territory and territorial airspace at dusk. 时间一点点过去,正午暖煦的阳光已成记忆,深秋的寒意从地下冉冉升起,在傍晚时分迅速占领了全部领地与领空。 About 200 Killer(s) apprentices stand in the wooden blade lane of slender blade abreast in row, in the ruins dies general silent, was covered gradually dark, they actually look like are appreciating a fascinating play, the observation inclines the head and listens attentively with rapt attention, each slightest sign of trouble and withered leaf fall to the ground, likely is the splendid transition, made the audience heart movement. 近200名杀手学徒并排站在狭刀的木刀巷里,废墟中死一般寂静,渐渐被黑暗笼罩,他们却像在欣赏一出引人入胜的戏剧,凝神观察侧耳倾听,每一点风吹草动、枯叶落地,都像是精彩的转折,令观众心动不已。 Gu Shenwei in this thing of month of learning, most apprentices in carving wooden institute ten months of learning are more, he traces the enemy adeptly, hidden own whereabouts, but his match is Wild Horse, another in the leader who in the massacring process starts, similarly has the perfect skillful and keen intuition. 顾慎为在这一个月学到的东西,比绝大多数学徒在雕木院十个月学到的还要多,他娴熟地追踪敌人,隐藏自己的行迹,但他的对手是野马,另一个在残杀过程中兴起的领袖,同样拥有完美的技巧与敏锐的直觉。 Night arrives, is easier to hide, is more difficult to search, Gu Shenwei already the second search ruins, anything had not discovered, he looks like with the lunatic who fight, transfers the circle in the place of nobody, but he knows that the enemy in the, occasionally has such several times, he even can feel the rhythm of Wild Horse heartbeat, when he approaches quietly, actually has achieved nothing, several other times, he felt that inexplicable anxiety, but the position that places is very disadvantageous, therefore escapes rapidly, does not make the enemy approach. 夜晚降临,更容易隐藏,也更难搜寻,顾慎为已经第二遍搜索废墟,还是什么都没有发现,他就像是与自己搏斗的疯子,在无人之地转圈子,但他知道敌人就在附近,偶尔有那么几次,他甚至能感觉到野马心跳的律动,等他悄悄靠近时,却一无所获,另有几次,他感到莫名的紧张,而身处的位置却十分不利,于是迅速逃跑,不让敌人接近。 In this kind of game, the knife skill and skill are the secondary factor, the endurance and will are the primary coverages of test, person who cannot repress first, person who also earliest exposes weaknesses. 在这样一场游戏中,刀法、身手都是次要因素,耐力与意志才是考验的主要内容,最先按捺不住的人,也是最早露出破绽的人。 Night passed, frost short-time arrives once more, qing gong good Killer(s), will leave the footprint in the frosting, or steps on the broken common glazed frost. 夜晚过去了,冰霜再次短时降临,轻功再好的杀手,也会在霜面上留下脚印,或者踩碎不起眼的薄冰。 It seems the safest tactic holds troops, but Gu Shenwei still along the route search of rule, ambushed in fixed place and other enemies passed through, this is only effective to the enemy who does not know the circumstances of the matter, to early has the expert of preparation, is no different turns oneself in Luo, Killer(s) sees the suspicious trace, will not walk directly, but circles to circle, launches the attack from ambush. 看上去最稳妥的战术是按兵不动,但顾慎为仍然沿着规律的路线搜索,埋伏在固定地点等敌人经过,这只对不知情的敌人有效,对早有准备的高手,无异于自投罗,杀手见到可疑的痕迹,不会直接走过去,而是兜圈子绕过去,从埋伏者背后发动袭击。 Gu Shenwei discovered that three footprints and two ice sludge, oneself has also left almost same number of traces, this is fault accidentally, he substantially narrowed scope the hunting zone, believes firmly very close with the Wild Horse distance already. 顾慎为发现三处脚印和两处碎冰,自己也留下了差不多同样数量的痕迹,这都是无意中的失误,他大大缩小了搜索范围,确信与野马的距离已经十分接近。 That is the region that the courtyard that by four abandoning composes, is surrounding an intersection, the past was the black market main rallying point, almost did not have the plant to cover, all was piles of toppling stone pieces. 那是由四座废弃的院子组成的区域,环绕着一个十字路口,从前是黑市的主要聚集点,几乎没有植物覆盖,全是一堆堆倾颓的碎石块。 Close to the noontime, the duel has carried on soon 12 double-hour once more, Gu Shenwei had discovered that half broken stone bricks moved the position slightly, therefore gathered round this point to carry on the careful search, confirmed this was the fault of Wild Horse, but the tempting enemy trap that did not intend to leave behind, he knows, can attack on own initiative. 再次临近午时,决斗已经进行了快要12个时辰,顾慎为发现一块半碎的石砖稍稍移动了位置,于是围着这一点进行了细致的搜索,确认了这是野马的失误,而不是有意留下的诱敌陷阱,他知道,可以主动出击了。 He moved a wood chip in the crossroad southeastern courtyard, the designation ambush place is one of the Northeast courtyard behind the wall, when Wild Horse investigates around the suspicious trail, definitely will pass through here. 他在路口东南的院子里移动了一段木片,选定的伏击地点则是东北院子的一处断墙后面,当野马绕着可疑的踪迹探查时,肯定会经过这里。 Gu Shenwei then must do crawls in the ground waited for patiently. 顾慎为接下来要做的就是匍匐在地面上耐心等待。 Enough after one double-hour, he heard the extremely slight sound of footsteps finally. 足足一个时辰以后,他终于听到了极轻微的脚步声。 Wild Horse, although the same black clothes wears a mask, actually without a doubt is Wild Horse oneself, when is turning around from the crossroad, walks bends the waist, the right hand grasps the blade, is soundless, every step must stop the observation, like stage in chicken thief secretly. 野马,虽然同样黑衣蒙面,却毫无疑问是野马本人,正从路口转过来,走路时弯着腰,右手握刀,蹑手蹑脚,每一步都要停下来观察,像极了戏台上的偷鸡贼。 Gu Shenwei will not have the heart of scoffing, his movement is also same, Killer(s) not dazzling skill, so long as practical on line. 顾慎为不会对此有耻笑之心,他自己的动作也一样,杀手没有令人眼花缭乱的技巧,只要实用就行。 Wild Horse only took two steps to anchor motionless, does not know that was anything attracted his attention and arouses the vigilance, in brief he no longer went forward, the body bent down lowly, shook the hand of blade also to increase the strength, then, his vision went to the Gu Shenwei hiding place. 野马只迈出两步就停住不动了,不知道是什么吸引了他的注意并引起警觉,总之他不再前进,身子伏得更低了,握刀的手也在加大力道,然后,他的目光投向了顾慎为的藏身之处。 Before Gu Shenwei body, has the crushed stone camouflage, only reveals an eye, to the ground is about several cuns (2.5 cm), his position back to the sunlight, is the vision most sharp goshawk, is impossible to discover him. 顾慎为身前有碎石遮蔽,只露出一只眼睛,离地面不过数寸,他的位置背对阳光,就是目光最锐利的苍鹰,也不可能发现他。 But Wild Horse is staring at that pile insignificant crushed stone, perhaps his anything had not discovered that but stems from the intuition, that type regarding close at hand intuition of dangerous sudden germination. 但野马还是盯着那堆无意义的碎石,或许他什么也没发现,只是出于直觉,那种对于近在眼前的危险突然萌生的直觉。 Gu Shenwei still waited for, the eye does wink, Killer(s) superstitions, namely the mood fluctuation at heart will transmit through the mysterious way to the vigilant enemy, therefore, wants not to be discovered that should maintains mind like still water. 顾慎为仍然等待,眼睛一眨不眨,杀手们都有一种迷信,即心里的情绪波动会通过神秘的方式传递给警觉的敌人,所以,想要不被发现,最好保持心如止水。 Wild Horse puts aside the vision to take one step, the heart of Gu Shenwei jumps suddenly, he even suspected that this jumped to alarm the match, because Wild Horse next step changed the direction, not only need bypass a big stone likely, and must circle a bigger circle likely, in that case, Gu Shenwei will expose the back, thus the superiority completely lost. 野马移开目光又迈出一步,顾慎为的心突地一跳,他甚至怀疑这一跳惊动了对手,因为野马下一步改变了方向,既像是要绕过一块大石,又像是要绕一个更大的圈子,那样的话,顾慎为就会将后背暴露,从而优势尽失。 The true idea of Wild Horse forever some people will not know, because at this moment, a series of sounds transmits from the ruins, „Wang Zhu has the command, stands bans the private war. Wang Zhu has the command, stands bans private war......” 野马的真实想法永远也不会有人知道了,因为就在这时,一连串的声音从废墟外面传来,“王主有令,立禁私斗。王主有令,立禁私斗……” This sound looks like one strong winds that blows dry to decay to blow the wooden blade lane, will cover the giant bubble about 200 youngster top of the heads to clear off, suddenly, immerses the apprentices in mysterious atmosphere wakes up suddenly. 这声音像一阵吹枯拉朽的狂风吹过木刀巷,将罩在近200名少年头顶上的巨大泡沫一扫而光,猛然间,沉浸在神秘气氛中的学徒们恍然醒来。 The past month, Dongbao looked like sea Nakakoshima that a Spiritual God forgot, the residents on island once think oneself were the god, controls, „Wang Zhu” two characters reminded them, the true Spiritual God still overlooked this scrap land in the high place, now, he regained to lose announces the right. 过去的一个月,东堡就像是一座神灵遗忘的海中小岛,岛上的居民一度以为自己就是神、就是主宰,“王主”两个字提醒他们,真正的神灵仍在高处俯视这一小块土地,现在,他来收复失地宣布权利了。 Each survivor, belongs to Supreme King. 每一位幸存者,都属于独步王。 What vertical horse transmitted orders is one team of red waistband Killer(s), the place visited, the apprentices seem to be awakening from a dream, have apprehensively ashamed, diverges in abundance, in their eyes, that two also keep in the ruins „leader” halo completely loses, but also is the ordinary schoolmate youngster. 纵马传令的是一队红腰带杀手,所过之处,学徒们如梦初醒,顿生惶惑羞愧,纷纷散去,在他们眼中,那两名还留在废墟中的“领袖”光环尽失,还身为普通的同学少年。 Wild Horse retrocedes quietly, Gu Shenwei also leaves from another direction along with it, everyone thought oneself grasped actively, only misses fatally finally strikes, in the heart is extremely cannot help but regrettable. 野马悄声后退,顾慎为随之也从另一个方向离开,每个人都觉得自己已经掌握主动,只差致命的最后一击,心中不由得万分遗憾。 When Gu Shenwei returns to the wooden blade lane, already nobody, only then the most hardcore several members, nod to him, walked immediately. 顾慎为回到木刀巷时,已经没什么人了,只有最铁杆的几位成员,冲他点点头,也马上走了。 Side transmitting orders Killer(s) rode a horse to turn back, satisfied the need „arm slave helps master” not spare a glance. 传令的杀手们骑马折返,对路边的“臂奴帮帮主”不屑一顾。 The nightmare that massacres had ended, will open both eyes is actually a bigger nightmare, Gu Shenwei that revenges the never youngster servant. 残杀的噩梦结束了,睁开双眼却是一场更大的噩梦,顾慎为还是那个报仇遥遥无期的少年奴仆。 Wooden blade lane crossroad is standing young group of people, wears a mask with the apprentices same black clothes, but Gu Shenwei knows that they do not have one are the people in Dongbao. 木刀巷路口站着一小群人,跟学徒们一样黑衣蒙面,但是顾慎为知道他们没有一个是东堡的人。 That young group of people are looking at jue however independent Servant Huan, stares at the young lion that was just catching like the curious aristocrat, the interest pleasure abundant and unfeeling. 那一小群人望着孓然独立的欢奴,就像好奇的贵族盯着刚抓到的幼狮,兴味盎然、冷酷无情。 Gu Shenwei has guessed correctly their status, even thought how many acquaintances oneself have recognized, he early should think that this kind of splendid real game, how can not cause „Tenth Young Master” the Shangguan Ru interest? 顾慎为猜到了他们的身份,甚至觉得自己认出了几位熟人,他早该想到的,这样一场精彩真实的游戏,怎么会不引起“十公子”上官如的兴趣？ Shangguan Ru stands in the middle of the crowd, perhaps stands in the middle that thin and small person. 上官如就站在人群当中,或许就是站在中间的那个瘦小的人。 The youngster who in the crowd goes out of bamboo pole, the trend stands motionless Servant Huan. 人群中走出一名竹竿似的少年,走向站立不动的欢奴。 „Young Master Yu.” “雨公子。” „When bamboo pole” arrives at the front, Gu Shenwei bowed slightly, calls the name of masked man. “竹竿”走到面前时,顾慎为微微躬身,叫出了蒙面人的名字。 „You have killed my brother.” When Shangguan Yu comes straight to the point, look one such as in Gu Shenwei memory such, arrogant heartless, „our family thanks you.” Her even slightly nodded, „, but I must revenge for him, you best careful, this is the words that I must speak.” “你杀了我哥哥。”上官雨时开门见山,眼神一如顾慎为记忆中那样,高傲无情,“我们全家都感激你。”她甚至微微点了点头,“但我还是要为他报仇,你最好小心点,这就是我要说的话。” Gu Shenwei looks at front high young girl, several months ago, this is he hardest to deal with match, now is actually only one does not pass through the humans affair and selfish arrogant little girl, she accompanies Shangguan Ru to come to see lively, has not passed through the true revenged kill and blood. 顾慎为看着面前的高个少女,几个月前,这是他最难缠的对手,现在却只是一名不经世事、自私自大的小女孩,她陪着上官如来看热闹,从来没有经过真正的仇杀与鲜血。 She knows that what is hates? What is revenges? 她知道什么是仇恨？什么是报仇？ „Welcome to the hatred the heaven, this is the words that I must speak.” “欢迎来到仇恨的天堂,这就是我要说的话。” Suddenly, status base and low Gu Shenwei becomes is imperially self-poise, bringing „Shangguan” Young Master Yu of surname to be panic-stricken, the right hand grips the hilt, actually lost the strength and will of drawing a sword, she retrocedes step by step, finally turns around to run away. 突然间,身份卑微的顾慎为变得如帝王般镇定自若,带着“上官”姓氏的雨公子惊慌失措,右手握住刀柄,却失去了拔刀的力气与意志,她步步后退,最后转身逃走。 Crossroad young group of people left, Gu Shenwei looks at him to think that is the Shangguan Ru form, kills the heart completely to disappear. 路口的一小群人离开了,顾慎为望着他以为是上官如的身影,杀心尽消。 Gu Shenwei has visited He Nu first, her injury is not quite good, therefore leaves early. 顾慎为先去探望了荷女,她的伤势不大好,所以离开得早。 „Arm slave helps also.” “臂奴帮还在。” He Nu definitely said, Gu Shenwei has not refuted, but he knows, but also, only then the remnant shade, this remnant shade also will quickly vanish, is similar to early morning frost. 荷女肯定地说,顾慎为没有反驳,但他知道,还在的只有残影,就连这残影也会很快消失殆尽,如同清晨的冰霜。 Killer Master return to the fort one after another, takes inventory own apprentice, some people lost the given name, must leave Golden Roc Castle low-spirited, is admitted to near the mountain road the narrow lonely small dwelling, was anticipating next year can receive several nice Killer(s) apprentices. 杀手师父们陆续回堡,清点自己的徒弟,有些人失去了名号,只得黯然离开金鹏堡,住进山路边上狭窄冷清的小宅,期待着明年能收几个像样的杀手学徒。 These have Killer Master that the apprentice fortunately survives, even if the disciple only remains one person, joyful extremely, inquired that all assassination details, then give everything one has to give oneself experience. 那些还有徒弟幸存的杀手师父,即使门下只剩一人,也欣喜万分,询问一切暗杀细节,然后将自己的经验倾囊相授。 In fact, more than one Killer Master openly declared, among since this group of apprentices, will emerge Golden Roc Castle many years topest Killer(s). 事实上,不止一位杀手师父公开宣称,这一批学徒当中,将涌现金鹏堡多年以来最顶尖的杀手。 However, nobody was rewarded, Golden Roc Castle as if thought the training that the apprentice receives is insufficient. 不过,没人受到奖赏,金鹏堡似乎觉得学徒受到的训练还不够。 Tie Hanfeng also came back, has not drunk, therefore the temperament is not quite good, fortunately survives this matter to the only apprentice, has not revealed slight happy intent. 铁寒锋也回来了,没有喝酒,所以脾气不太好,对唯一的徒弟幸存这件事,没有显露出丝毫的喜意。 „Heard that you formed one ‚woman to help’, making a little girl take responsibility, protected the security by her? I think that your biological mothers turned into ash, how to have been weaned? Said that your boy hides is asking for the woman happy unique skill, will plan from now on the galloping happy field?” “听说你组建了一个‘女人帮’,让一个小女孩做主,靠她保护安全？我以为你亲娘都化成灰了,怎么还没断奶？还是说你小子藏着讨女人欢喜的绝技,打算今后驰骋欢场？” If one month ago, Gu Shenwei will be enraged by these words, now he is aloof, one month of massacring is more effective than ten years of instruction. 如果是在一个月以前,顾慎为会被这些话激怒,现在他却无动于衷,一个月的残杀比十年的教诲更有效。 „She is qualified Killer(s), is not weak in anybody.” “她是合格的杀手,不弱于任何人。” Tie Hanfeng to apprentice calm was very as if angry, stares at him to look at for quite a while, changed the topic, „your also several next month tries?” 铁寒锋对徒弟的冷静似乎十分恼怒,盯着他看了半天,改变了话题,“你还有几次月试？” „One time.” “一次。” The Gu Shenwei fifth next month tries in assassinating moist reciprocal several days carries on, the match dies on the road, he wins by default, only needs to be many result that a blade kills the enemy, he can finish an apprenticeship, removes „apprentice” two characters, obtains the Golden Roc Castle Killer(s) title. 顾慎为的第五次月试在暗杀潮的倒数几天进行,对手死在路上,他不战而胜,只需要再多一次一刀毙敌的成绩,他就能出师,去掉“学徒”二字,获得金鹏堡杀手称号。 „Un, is very good, the last time does not permit you to kill the match, your also need much trains.” “嗯,很好,最后一次不准你杀死对手,你还需要更多训练。” Tie Hanfeng ejects the lethal weapons lightly, Gu Shenwei cannot control the mood, is burning with anger suddenly. 铁寒锋平淡地抛出致命武器,顾慎为没能控制住情绪,突然间怒火中烧。
