The blade, more and more becomes the Gu Shenwei essential thing. 刀,越来越成为顾慎为必不可少之物。 Almost is bringing the blade when Golden Roc Castle every day, that several jin (0.5 kg) weight was probably long on him, if one day forgot to bring the blade, felt that with has not worn the clothes to be the same, in blade cluster Jianlin Southern Jade City, this feeling was especially obvious. 在金鹏堡时几乎每天都带着刀,那几斤的重量好像长在了他身上,如果有一天忘了带刀,感觉就跟没穿衣服一样,在刀丛剑林的璧玉南城,这种感觉尤其明显。 Next noon, Gu Shenwei alone goes out, is treading the thick snow, goes to his knowledge Tibetan's knife most places. 第二天中午,顾慎为独自出门,踏着厚厚的积雪,前往据他所知藏刀最多的地方。 The high fatty of south wall tavern entrance coldly looks at the tenacious youngster, „this is a tavern, is not the blade shop.” 南墙酒馆门口的高个胖子冷冷地看着固执的少年,“这是酒馆,不是刀铺。” „I disburse money to buy one.” Gu Shenwei in the entrance, does not reach the stance that the goal potential does not give up, did not have the guest turnover in any case at this time. “我出钱买一把。”顾慎为堵在门口,一副不达目的势不罢休的架势,反正这时没有客人进出。 The high fatty and short person fatty looked at one mutually, enters in the shop, before long takes a weapon to come out, throws to Gu Shenwei, „looks in the face of your master, takes away, does not want your money.” 高个胖子与矮个胖子互相看了一眼,走进店内,不一会拿着一件兵器出来,扔给顾慎为,“看在你师父的面子上,拿去,不要你钱。” The fat people actually still remember that he was the Tie Hanfeng apprentice, Gu Shenwei received the weapon, „this was a sword, I wanted the blade.” 胖子竟然还记得他是铁寒锋的徒弟,顾慎为接过兵器,“这是剑,我要刀。” The fatty of guarding a gate was angry, „picks, am I your lackey? Walks.” 守门的胖子生气了,“挑三拣四,我是你的奴才吗？走走走。” Two fat people are holding the bosom, compels to not the tactful youngster. 两个胖子抱着怀,逼向不知趣的少年。 Gu Shenwei returns to the dwelling, draws a sword sheath, this is the weapon that which fake aristocrat leaves behind, the scabbard and sword hilt decorates probably very magnificently, the gems of these crustifications looked that is false, the sword blade is light and thin, even has not operated the blade. 顾慎为回到住处,拔剑出鞘,这大概是哪位冒牌贵族遗下的兵器,剑鞘和剑柄装饰得很华丽,那些镶嵌的宝石一看就是假的,剑身又轻又薄,甚至没开刃。 The steadfast feeling when this grasps slender blade has with the hand not to be completely different. 这和手握狭刀时所产生的踏实感完全不一样。 „Didn't call the hand?” Xu Xiaoyi collects, he is interested in these false gems. “不称手吗？”许小益凑过来,他对那些假宝石更感兴趣。 „I am not familiar with use the sword.” “我不习惯用剑。” „Has anything to distinguish, ten dragon Bangli does not have the expert in any case, hits is you wins.” “有什么区别,反正十龙帮里没高手,怎么打都是你赢。” The Xu Xiaoyi words have reminded Gu Shenwei, he had studied the style in nameless sword spectrum, although when with the master contests has the effect, actually also almost dies in the master hand, that is because Tie Hanfeng martial arts are too more than him, if the match is very weak, does not need to defend, this set has to attack the sword of non- defending to incur just right useful. 许小益的话点醒了顾慎为,他曾经学过无名剑谱里的招式,与师父过招时虽然产生奇效,却也差点死在师父手里,那是因为铁寒锋的武功比他强出太多,如果对手很弱,无需防守的话,这套有攻无守的剑招正好用得上。 This act appears somewhat rash, does not conform to the Golden Roc Castle consistent principle, Gu Shenwei wants to attempt very much, although he once warned He Nu do not practice, oneself never forget to the swordsmanship. 此举显得有些莽撞,不符合金鹏堡一贯的原则,顾慎为很想尝试一下,虽然他曾告戒荷女不要练,自己还是对剑法念念不忘。 Uses the sword, receives the sword. 出剑,收剑。 Xu Xiaoyi sits falls on the floor, puts out a hand wound that feels on the neck not to have, complexion blanch, „does? Silences a witness of crime?” 许小益坐倒在地板上,伸手摸着脖子上不存在的伤口,脸色发白,“干嘛？杀人灭口吗？” „All right, tries this sword to be what kind.” “没事,试试这剑怎么样。” The face of Xu Xiaoyi all of a sudden became red, „tried the sword? Tries the sword? Has tries the sword with the live person? If you let slip, I die from some unknown cause.” 许小益的脸一下子变得红了,“试剑？试剑？有拿活人试剑的吗？万一你失手,我岂不是死得不明不白。” „Cannot.” Gu Shenwei receives the sword to sheathe, starts to think that it was quite convenient, „I will not let slip.” “不会。”顾慎为收剑入鞘,开始觉得它比较顺手了,“我不会失手。” Xu Xiaoyi does not believe, the sword point has bumped into his neck, only needs to go forward again one inch, can set at the person in the deathtrap, in his opinion, everybody will let slip, but he has not continued to argue, does not want to stir up this Golden Roc Castle Killer(s) to try again one time. 许小益可不怎么相信,剑尖已经碰到他的脖子了,只需要再前进一寸,就能置人于死地,在他看来,谁都会失手,不过他没有继续争论,不想惹得这个金鹏堡杀手再试一次。 When the air/Qi has disappeared slowly, Xu Xiaoyi starts to think that sword mysteriously appeared and disappeared a moment ago, the reality is he has seen the most marvelous swordsmanship, „, what swordsmanship is that? You use the sword to be possible using blade are fiercer.” 等气慢慢消了,许小益开始觉得刚才那一剑神出鬼没,实是他所见过的最奇妙剑法,“嘿,那是什么剑法？你用剑可比用刀厉害。” Xu Xiaoyi does not understand martial arts, Gu Shenwei has no way to explain to him, seems very fierce martial arts, in actual combat actually not necessarily useful, „punctures the neck swordsmanship.” 许小益不懂武功,顾慎为没法向他解释,看上去很厉害的武功,在实战中却未必有用,“刺脖剑法。” „Is barebacked? The swordsmanship of stripped using?” “赤膊？光膀子用的剑法？” „Punctures the swordsmanship of neck specially.” “专刺脖子的剑法。” Xu Xiaoyi according to the neck, is curling the lip, „good swordsmanship, gives such coarse name.” 许小益又按着脖子,撇撇嘴,“挺好的剑法,取这么难听的名字。” Xu Yanwei has the guest to visit, two people must hide, the sister and brother cannot rent to keep person of lane little building, can only look for the dwelling in the south city edge, the place that the nearby may not have a rest, Gu Shenwei is unfamiliar with the people and place, is not willing with Xu Xiaoyi to at sixes and sevens place, to lead him to re-enter the south wall tavern. 许烟微有客人上门,两人只得躲出去,姐弟俩租不起留人巷的小楼,只能在南城边缘找住处,附近没有可歇脚的地方,顾慎为人生地不熟,又不愿意跟着许小益到乱七八糟的场所,只得带着他重回南墙酒馆。 Gu Shenwei hands over the sword, two fat people search on him very much carefully, then would rather not putting two people to go. 顾慎为交出剑,两个胖子很仔细地在他身上搜索,然后不太情愿地放两人进去。 „I come out will take the sword, if it can turn into the blade to be better.” “我出来的时候会取剑,它要是能变成刀更好。” Gu Shenwei has exhorted one, entered has chosen table in a corner to the tavern, does not want to be remarkable. 顾慎为嘱咐了一声,进到酒馆里选了一张角落里的桌子,不想惹人注意。 Day also not black, the guest are not many, Gu Shenwei sizes up in all directions, the form that has not seen the master, outside old men to several table has actually had the interest. 天还没黑,客人不多,顾慎为四处打量,没看到师父的身影,却对几张桌子以外的一位老者产生了兴趣。 The old men drink with flies, each must think slow shallowly, on the table is only suspending a liquor, showed that he is a senior alcoholic. 老者自斟自饮,每一口都要浅酌慢品,桌上只摆着一种酒,显示他是一名资深酒客。 The old men are surnamed Zhang, the famous oar, was the teaching mister in Golden Roc Castle family school, the neck of Gu Shenwei is hit one time by this dignified venerable, close to the end of the year, it is estimated that the Shangguan Family juniors did not go to school. 老者姓张,名楫,乃是金鹏堡家族学堂里的教书先生,顾慎为的脖子曾经被这位威严的老先生打过一次,临近年底,估计上官家的子弟们又都不上学了。 Zhang Ji also holds public office in the concealed study room, he in piling in heaps the interested party of old paper, Bing Zhuye read only frequently, Gu Shenwei thinks suddenly, this person could answer questions to dispel doubt for oneself. 张楫也在藏书房供职,他是唯一对成堆的旧纸感兴趣的人,常常秉烛夜读,顾慎为突然想到,这个人或许能为自己答疑解惑。 Xu Xiaoyi is gobbling up the food and wine on table like a whirlwind that sweeps away scattered clouds, big of capacity for food is not extremely symmetric with its slim figure, Gu Shenwei pulls out the complete silver coins in bosom, probably 30-40 two, „pay up.” 许小益正在风卷残云般地吞吃桌上的酒菜,饭量之大与其瘦小的身材极不相称,顾慎为掏出怀中的全部银两,大概三四十两,“去结帐。” „Hadn't I finished eating?” The Xu Xiaoyi mouth is chewing food, stared in a big way the eye. “我还没吃完呢？”许小益嘴里嚼着食物,瞪大了眼睛。 „Pays up to that venerable.” “给那位老先生结帐。” Xu Xiaoyi was motionless, took a look at Zhang Ji, „was he your father?” 许小益不动,瞅了一眼张楫,“他是你爹？” Gu Shenwei sighed one pretentiously: „Aiya, tomorrow I must to Dongbao report, to my this good helper, be possible to result in say two.” 顾慎为装模作样地感叹了一句:“哎呀,明天我就要向东堡报告情况了,对我这位好帮手,可得多说两句。” Xu Xiaoyi jumps down the chair, holds silver coins, walks toward the counter, the mouth was whispering low voice, „bullied.” 许小益跳下椅子,抱起银两,向柜台走去,嘴里小声嘀咕着,“仗势欺人。” A meeting, Xu Xiaoyi had not come back, the complexion is not very good, „old man is not simple, drank continually for several days, all was the best liquor, your money was insufficient.” 没一会,许小益回来了,脸色很不好,“老头儿可不简单,连喝几天了,全是最好的酒,你那点银子根本不够。” „That keeps accounts.” “那就记账。” „Whose account?” “记谁的账？” „Tie Hanfeng.” “铁寒锋。” Xu Xiaoyi grudgingly and moves toward counter, this time comes back quickly, the storekeeper also together came, „Tie Hanfeng does not have the account here.” 许小益不情愿地又走向柜台,这次回来得更快,掌柜也跟着一块来了,“铁寒锋在这里没有账。” „That from now on will record.” “那就从现在开始记。” Gu Shenwei learns a matter from the master, cannot appear in south city hesitates timidly, insisted that could achieve the goal, will flinch is swallowed. 顾慎为从师父身上学到一件事,在南城绝不可显出胆怯犹疑,坚持或许能达成目的,退缩就会被人吞掉。 The storekeepers are taking a look at the present youngster, „are you his apprentice?” 掌柜上上下下打量着眼前的少年,“你是他徒弟？” „Un.” “嗯。” „He what to do, if doesn't recognize your account?” “他要是不认你的账怎么办？” „I take the head/number of people.” “我拿人头还。” Gu Shenwei is pressing the tabletop, the sound probably is light is disciple many years of Killer(s), his first time enters south city to be informed: The head/number of people is also here currency. 顾慎为一手按着桌面,声音平淡得好像是执业多年的杀手,他第一次进入南城就被告知:人头也是这里的货币。 The storekeepers are cold the face, has flash he to get angry probably, beard did not have half big kid who is long, dares to while away the time with him, when but he opens the mouth, said is actually, „162, under the Tie Hanfeng account.” 掌柜冷着脸,有一瞬间他好像要发火,一个胡子还没长出来的半大孩子,竟敢拿他消遣,但当他开口时,说的却是,“162,记在铁寒锋账下。” Xu Xiaoyi sits on the chair of Gu Shenwei left hand, probably the understanding does not visit him, „, you are really...... Do you name?” 许小益坐在顾慎为左手的椅子上,好像不认识似地看着他,“哇,哇,你真是……你叫什么名字？” Two people knew for a long time, Gu Shenwei has not mentioned own name, Xu Xiaoyi had not asked that continuously „you and he” name. 两人认识很长时间了,顾慎为从来没提过自己的名字,许小益也不问,一直“你、他”地称呼。 „Yang Huan.” Gu Shenwei sent out the fictitious name, he by the status conduct of Killer(s), does not need to use „Servant Huan” now these two characters. “杨欢。”顾慎为报出假名,他现在是以杀手的身份行事,不必用“欢奴”这两个字了。 „Happy elder brother, I asked you happy elder brother to result, you were greatly 1 or 2-year-old than me,......” “欢哥,我叫你欢哥得了,你比我大一两岁吧,啧啧……” Xu Xiaoyi shakes the head, probably does not believe. 许小益摇着头,好像不相信。 Gu Shenwei has not responded him, has stared at the storekeeper to move toward Zhang Ji, did not have a meeting, Zhang Ji calls the youngster who the waiter please pay money in the past. 顾慎为没搭理他,一直盯着掌柜走向张楫,没一会,张楫叫伙计请付钱的少年过去。 „I have taught that many students, does not have a lackey to understand filial.” “我教了那么多学生,都没有一个奴才懂得孝顺。” Zhang Ji actually still remembers that this once the lackey who caused trouble in the school, although two people worked together as colleagues in the concealed study room, has not spoken. 张楫竟然还记得这个曾在学堂里闹事的奴才,两人虽然在藏书房共事,却从来没有说过话。 „A respect, asking Mr. open/stretch to kindly accept.” “一点敬意,请张先生笑纳。” „Some people disburse money, I kindly accept certainly. Sits, you did not need to beat around the bush, have the words to speak frankly, but I reminded you first, money do I did not draw back, help not to be uncertain.” “有人出钱,我当然笑纳。坐吧,你也不用绕弯子,有话直说好了,不过我先提醒你,银子我不退,帮不帮忙可不一定。” Gu Shenwei has smiled, „might as well, this not being able to add on, will have asking for advice from now on time.” 顾慎为笑了,“无妨,这次帮不上,今后也有讨教的时候。” That copy clerk who Gu Shenwei will remember has carried low voice, abbreviation name, „does Mr. open/stretch, whether you think these a little out of the ordinary place?” 顾慎为将自己记得的那份文书小声背了一遍,省略其中的名字,“张先生,您觉得这其中是否有点与众不同的地方？” Zhang Ji carries one glass of liquor, slowly sways, „this was busy at me not being able to help, obsolete disabled person, never the other people's business in multibarreled fort.” 张楫端起一杯酒,慢慢摇晃,“这个忙我帮不了,老朽废人一个,从不多管堡里的闲事。” „Thank you, Mr. open/stretch.” “谢谢你,张先生。” Gu Shenwei does not plan to ask again, the Zhang Ji manner showed many things . Moreover the Golden Roc Castle influence is complex, no one can guarantee the reliability of Zhang Ji. 顾慎为不打算再问下去,张楫的态度说明了许多东西,况且金鹏堡势力复杂,谁也不能保证张楫的可靠。 Gu Shenwei returns to own position, does not pay attention to talking incessantly of Xu Xiaoyi, is lost in thought that Zhang Ji also thought that this copy clerk has the issue, this makes him even more affirm own suspicion. 顾慎为回到自己的位置上,不理睬许小益的唠叨,陷入沉思,张楫也觉得这份文书有问题,这让他越发肯定自己的怀疑。 Alcoholics were gradually many, everybody talks of this and that had not keeled over drunk near several of table, is circling politely, the speech way is the same with Tie Hanfeng and Zhong Heng these people. 酒客渐渐多了起来,大家谈天说地,临桌的几个还没有醉倒,正在客气地兜圈子,说话方式跟铁寒锋、钟衡这些人一样。 Gu Shenwei at present one bright, the language is the place labyrinth, to probe the opposite party hides itself, the speaker must add more smog to this labyrinth, is the person of familiar rule, can smooth the labyrinth. 顾慎为眼前一亮,语言是座迷宫,为了试探对方隐藏自己,说话者还要给这座迷宫添上更多的烟雾,得是熟悉规则的人,才能顺利趟过迷宫。 Gu Shenwei makes Xu Xiaoyi probably come pen paper, writes down from memory the content on that copy clerk, from the beginning reads attentively to a room character character, finally understands why oneself will produce restlessly. 顾慎为让许小益要来笔纸,将那份文书上的内容默写一遍,从头到屋一字一字地细读,终于明白自己为什么会产生不安了。 In these genteel glossaries, plans the decision maker to the motion whether succeeds not to have the full assurance, therefore hides between the lines was suggesting, to indicate he knows is possibly defeated, moreover thinks that the failure perhaps is the good deed, can reduce the arrogance of apprentices...... 在那些文诌诌的词汇里,计划制定者对行动是否成功没有十足把握,所以在字里行间藏着许多暗示,以表明他知道可能失败,而且认为失败也许是好事,能够减少学徒们的傲气…… Gu Shenwei rips the fragment the paper, when stands up walks outward, passed by Zhang Ji , said that „thank you, Mr. open/stretch.” 顾慎为将纸撕成碎片,站起身向外走去,路过张楫时,又说了一遍,“谢谢你,张先生。” „Thanked me to leave my distant point.” “谢我就离我远点。” The people mean to focus mixed, the Zhang Ji manner becomes stiff, did not lift said. 人多意味着眼杂,张楫的态度变得生硬,头也不抬地说。 Gu Shenwei has not stopped, the passenger flow that counter tidal is welling up walks toward the entrance, Xu Xiaoyi forces in the last vegetable, drinks next big liquor, closely follows on the heels. 顾慎为未做停留,逆着潮水般涌进来的客流向门口走去,许小益塞进最后一口菜,喝下一大酒,紧紧跟在后面。 Does not wait for the Gu Shenwei opens the mouth, the high fatty returns the weapon, the weapon had the change, but has not turned into the blade, was still the sword, former short was lighter, probably was child's toy. 不等顾慎为开口,高个胖子将兵器交还,兵器有了变化,不过没有变成刀,仍然是剑,比从前的更短更轻,好像是孩子的玩具。 On the fatty face shows smile that teased, Gu Shenwei received the short-sword confidently, showed the smiling face, „your trick should also become many.” 胖子脸上露出调侃的微笑,顾慎为坦然接过短剑,也露出笑容,“你的戏法还应该变得更好些。” The weather fades out, two people are stepping on the crisp hard thick snow, arrives at ten dragons to help the foothold again, this chapter did not need to hand over joining a group of 12 money to spend, but the blue ruin was not free, Gu Shenwei the stony broke, Xu Xiaoyi must pull out own money to pay a bill, repeatedly stressed that this was borrows. 天色渐暗,两人踩着脆硬的厚雪,再次来到十龙帮据点,这回不用交12银子的入帮费了,但劣酒可不是免费的,顾慎为已经身无分文,许小益只得掏出自己的钱付账,一再强调这是借的。 Gu Shenwei grasps the short-sword, the eye is staring in the crowd a man of making widely known, thought how can fight one with him. 顾慎为握着短剑,眼睛盯着人群里一名张扬的男人,心想怎么才能和他打一架。
