Since the last generation of cruel stupid kings died, and has not left behind any heir, the Land of Fragrance common people give up all contacts with outside, careless hundred have the remaining years of life, thinks that own country already vanished in the mouth of common people. 自从最后一代残暴昏庸的国王死去,并且没有留下任何子嗣,香积之国的百姓就放弃与外界的一切交往,忽忽百有余年,自认为本国早已在世人的口中消失。 This country defends a paradise alone, the vast territory with a sparse population, the resident selects in the city occupies friendly, only has the royal palace, appointed its desolated, the past resplendent in gold and jade green present became overgrown with weeds, becomes the paradise of wild animal and child. 该国独守一片世外桃源,地广人稀,居民在城内择善地而居,唯有王宫任其荒芜,昔日的金碧辉煌如今已变为杂草丛生,成为野兽与儿童的乐园。 They no longer elect the king, but is divided into ten clans and tribes, implements autonomous, each clan supposes a leader, in the member by the clan holds the post in turn. 他们不再推选国王,而是分成十个部族,实行自治,每族设一位首领,由族内成员轮流担任。 A about 2000 people of army suddenly intrudes fresh flower plain everywhere from the forest, immediately vibrated Land of Fragrance, the ten leaders of idle safe, all of a sudden were always pushed up the keenest struggle, all night after the discussion, ten people decide to go out of town together, represent the national common people, seems the barbaric and hungry army negotiations with this. 一支近2000人的大军突然从森林中闯入鲜花遍地的平原,立刻震动了香积之国,向来清闲无事的十首领,一下子被推上风口浪尖,彻夜商议之后,十人决定一起出城,代表全国百姓,与这支看上去野蛮而饥饿的军队谈判。 To a national capital ten li (0.5 km) place, the Gu Shenwei order army backs on a creek to pitch camp, then receives the envoy in the main tent/account. 离国都十里的地方,顾慎为命令军队背靠一条小河安营,然后在主帐里接见使者。 This is in the world most mild-mannered most and cultivated one group of people, all wears the tinted long gown, the loose synthesis, except for the fine waistband, the body does not have other accessories again, actually gives off the intermittent fragrance, the having an easy-going manner synthesis, the sound supple slow clear, although language barrier, the listener will immediately also feel good intentions. 这是世上最温文尔雅的一群人,一律穿着浅色的长袍,宽松合体,除了精美的腰带,身上再无其它饰品,却散发出阵阵香气,举止大方合体,声音柔缓清晰,虽然语言不通,听者也会马上感受到其中的善意。 Ten leader ages differ disparately, minimum talent 20 years old, handled matters was still not experienced, was somewhat nervous, the senior beard and hair was all white, in the hand was leaning on and almost same color walking stick. 十名首领年纪相差悬殊,最小的才20来岁,处事尚不老练,神情有些紧张,年长者须发皆白,手中拄着与差不多同样颜色的拐杖。 Ten people of status are equal, in ordinary circumstances was spoken by the elder. 十人地位相等,一般情况下由长者发言。 Gu Shenwei listened to several, only understands a word, old man named room, therefore he subpoenaed one to speak the several languages Bladesman to come, when translated, guessed belt/bring ignorant/veiled continually, in addition all sorts of complex hand signals, finally approximately understood the opposite party intention. 顾慎为听了几句,只听懂一个词,老者名叫室利摩罗,于是他传唤一名通晓多国语言的刀客进来当翻译,连猜带蒙,再加上种种复杂的手势,终于大致明白了对方意图。 Room declared that our people are scarce, less than 6000, for over a hundred years, little contact the outcomer, especially have not seen the soldier with various types of weapons, changed/easy Shou have frightened, therefore requested earnestly the Dragon King restraint hand/subordinate soldier, do not enter the capital city, as for the city outside, may pitch camp everywhere, how long want to keep to be good. 室利摩罗声言本国人民稀少,不到6000,上百年来,很少接触到外来者,尤其没见过战士与各种兵器,易受惊吓,因此恳请龙王约束手下士兵,不要进入都城,至于城外,可随处扎营,想留多久都行。 As the repayment, the residents in city want to provide enough food every day. 作为回报,城里的居民愿意每日提供足够的食物。 Gu Shenwei agrees, this is one both has the agreement of profit to both sides, the local resident needs to be safe, the soldiers need to rest fully. 顾慎为表示同意,这是一个对双方都有益处的协议,当地居民需要安全,战士们需要充分的休息。 Gu Shenwei makes the translator inquire that to room goes to the Xiaoyao Lake path, the old man actually knows nothing, but he said that in the city has the old map that a emperor time spreads, when he goes back, sends for delivering. 顾慎为让翻译向室利摩罗询问前往逍遥海的道路,老者却一无所知,但他说城里有一份帝王时代流传下来的老地图,等他一回去,就派人送过来。 The negotiations such ended. 谈判就这么结束了。 At that time many people surrounded these whole bodies to send out the alien race man of fragrance inside and outside main tent/account, after the envoy walked, standing on one side Shangguan Fei curls the lip to smile one, „installed to resemble.” 当时有不少人在主帐内外围观这些浑身散发着香气的异族男子,使者走后,站在一边的上官飞撇嘴笑了一声,“装得好像。” Gu Shenwei understands that his meaning, among ten messengers, including room, least three people can understand the Central Plains words actually, actually disguises to know nothing, but they installed somewhat excessively, naturally could not deceive Dragon King and Shangguan Fei this year to year in the person who in the schemes and tricks used all might. 顾慎为明白他的意思,十名使者当中,包括室利摩罗在内,最少有三个人其实能听懂中原话,却假装一无所知,可他们装得有些过头了,自然骗不过龙王与上官飞这样常年在阴谋诡计中摸爬滚打的人。 Similarly stands Shangguan Hong in tent/account has not looked exceptionally, asks at a loss: „What installs? You were said that they did have the fragrance like the woman?” 同样站在帐内的上官鸿没看出来异常,茫然问道:“装什么？你是说他们像女人一样有香味吗？” Two people do not pay attention to him, although Gu Shenwei saw the Land of Fragrance common people might as well seem such simple, but he does not want to reveal at the scene, perhaps these people harbor the deep fear to the army, under the pretext of language barrier, avoids exposing many details. 两人都不理睬他,顾慎为虽然看出香积之国的百姓不如看上去的那样纯朴,但他不想当场揭穿,这些人或许只是对军队怀有深深的恐惧,以语言不通为借口,避免暴露过多的底细。 However, since some people will speak the Central Plains words, indicated that this place completely is by no means secluded from the world. 不过,既然有人会说中原话,表明此地并非完全与世隔绝。 Later that day, room really sends for sending an obsolete map, on the cloth has the loopholes of many being destroyed by insects, was still approximately complete, is only the writing is strange, the translator cannot understand. 当天晚些时候,室利摩罗果然派人送来一张陈旧的地图,布帛上有不少虫蛀的漏洞,大致仍然完整,只是文字怪异,就连翻译也看不懂。 Above has a great lake, looks at the position likely is Xiaoyao Lake, but does not have the path to lead to Land of Fragrance, as for other Western Region areas, draws extremely not accurately, does not have the reference value basically. 上面有一处大湖,看方位很可能就是逍遥海,但是没有道路通往香积之国,至于西域其它地区,画得极不准确,基本没有参考价值。 Gu Shenwei is a little strange, the resident of any place, will pack off the army of unknown origin impatiently, but room and the others as if do not worry. 顾慎为有点奇怪,任何一地的居民,都会迫不及待地送走来历不明的军队,可室利摩罗等人似乎一点也不着急。 He puts down this matter temporarily, Golden Roc Castle is asking for west the Western Region eastern expedition, the Great Snow Mountain army hides is very here appropriate, but he ordered to set up the sentry post inside and outside the camp, protection surprise attack. 他暂时将此事放下,金鹏堡正在西域东征西讨,大雪山军队躲在这里很合适,但他下令在营地内外多设哨卡,防备突袭。 The following half a month, both sides live in peace with each other, the residents in city defer to the agreement, every day will send the massive fruits and wheaten food, but does not have the meats, but enough more than 1600 people are also satiated with food and wine. 接下来的半个月,双方相安无事,城里的居民按照约定,每天都会送来大量的水果与面食,只是没有肉类,但也足够1600多人吃饱喝足。 The Gu Shenwei strict restraint subordinate, does not permit anybody to approach the capital city, then sent out dozens to scout to Northeast, hopes to find the path to Xiaoyao Lake. 顾慎为则严格约束部下,不准任何人靠近都城,然后向东北派出数十名斥候,希望找到通往逍遥海的通路。 The idle time, he mostly is used to train that more than 300 savage soldiers. 空闲时间,他大都用来训练那300多名野人士兵。 Leaves the forest and family member, making these savages not adapt, the diet of this place does not gather their appetite, the custom in military compound also makes them feel that is hard to accept. 离开森林与亲人,让这些野人非常不适应,此地的饮食不合他们的口胃,军营里的规矩也让他们感到难以接受。 But few people escape, they were infatuated with these sharp incomparable weapons, rather die than does not hate to give up. 但很少有人逃跑,他们迷上了那些锋利无比的兵器,宁死也舍不得放弃。 Most savages have not seen the steel, when they discovered when the most common steel knife can also cut off the wooden javelin effortlessly, immediately is unable to put down to the weapon that succeeds in obtaining newly, even night must hold it to sleep. 大多数野人从来没见过钢铁,当他们发现最普通的钢刀也能毫不费力地砍断木制标枪时,立刻就对新到手的兵器爱不释手,甚至夜里要抱着它睡觉。 They are very from the beginning repugnant to various equipment maintenances, does not adapt to the clothing later burden feeling, but also thought that this is the behavior of coward, demonstrates until Dragon King personally, wears the chest protector iron armor, after the wood and iron arrow that the command shoots all expire, the people rush to exchange to rob armor. 他们一开始对各类护具都很反感,既不适应穿戴之后的累赘感,还觉得这是懦夫的行为,直到龙王亲自示范,穿上护胸铁甲,令射来的木、铁箭头全都失效之后,众人才抢着换上盗甲。 The Tuo Nengya injury was much better, Gu Shenwei assigned old Bladesman and young head of the clan sword edge taught that these savages used the sword, had the person to teach them to speak the Central Plains words. 陀能牙伤势好得差不多了,顾慎为指定老刀客与小剑锋族长教导这些野人使用刀剑,另外有人教他们说中原话。 The savages will bend the bow the archery since childhood, after exchanging the strong bow advantage arrow, the might increases, between Bladesman and swordsmen, few people can with it side by side. 野人们从小就会弯弓射箭,换上强弓利矢之后,威力更是大增,在刀客与剑客们中间,很少有人能与其比肩。 Shangguan Fei discovers unusually, Dragon King possibly for several months mixes up with the savage. 要不是上官飞发现异常,龙王可能一连几个月都与野人混在一起。 Shangguan Fei received many pain, follows Dragon King far exceeds his imagination difficultly, as long as the escape route, his also without hesitation first will also be the military deserter. 上官飞受了不少苦,跟随龙王的艰辛远远超出他的想象,但凡还有一条退路,他也会毫不犹豫地第一个当逃兵。 Arrives at Land of Fragrance, he was happier than anybody, made him not be feeling well only, was half blood brothers Shangguan Hong. 来到香积之国,他比任何人都高兴,唯一令他不爽的,还是同父异母兄弟上官鸿。 Two people relations once slightly relaxed, but along with being together in the course of time, the loathing is longer than quickly the spring weeds, Shangguan Fei forever does not have the means to accept this servant Elder Brother and mother's dirty matter, even/including thinks one thinks disgusting. 两人的关系曾经稍有缓和,可是随着相处日久,彼此间的厌恶比春天的野草长得还快,上官飞永远也没办法接受这个奴仆般的哥哥与自己母亲的龌龊事,连想一下都觉得恶心。 Therefore, he like the surveillance enemy, momentarily pays attention the Shangguan Hong whereabouts. 因此,他像监视敌人一样,随时留意上官鸿的去向。 „Shangguan Hong revolted.” That evening, Shangguan Fei did intentionally discloses the information to Dragon King mystically. “上官鸿叛变了。”这天傍晚,上官飞故作神秘地向龙王透露情报。 „Right?” The Gu Shenwei tone is light, as if not care. “是吗？”顾慎为语气平淡,似乎不怎么在意。 „Really.” Shangguan Fei was a little anxious, „I personally see, he woman who comes out with the city in fools around, in the riverside, the boy now is beautiful with deity, let alone Dragon King, even if the biological mother, he will be also same will betray.” “真的。”上官飞有点急了,“我亲眼所见,他跟城里出来的女人鬼混,就在河边,那小子现在美得跟神仙似的,别说龙王,就算是亲娘,他也一样会背叛。” Gu Shenwei started to care about the Shangguan Fei information. 顾慎为开始在意上官飞的情报了。 Room Luo Qianglie opposes the soldier to enter a city, how to allow this clan female to go out of town? 室利摩罗强烈反对战士进城,何以会允许本族女子出城？ „Next time he will leave the camp, told me.” “下次他出营,过来告诉我。” The order of Dragon King makes Shangguan Fei very happy, is complying repeatedly, just before leaving before , has not forgotten additional one, „should to the serious discipline time, Dragon King, you have not been able to be softhearted.” 龙王的命令让上官飞非常高兴,连声答应着,临走前还不忘加一句,“该到严肃军纪的时候了,龙王,您可不能再心慈手软啦。” The Great Snow Mountain camp is located in the riverside, usually fetches water in the upstream, in Shangguan Hong and city the place of women's lover's rendezvous in the downstream, is nearer to the capital city. 大雪山营地位于河边,平时都在上游取水,上官鸿与城内女子幽会的地点却在下游,离都城更近一些。 Shangguan Hong is obviously familiar and easy, knows including the trenches that the weed covers clearly, does not have to discover oneself have encountered the track. 上官鸿显然轻车熟路,连杂草掩盖的沟沟坎坎都知道得清清楚楚,却一点也没发现自己遭到了跟踪。 Indeed strange women in waiting for his arrival, she put on with this country male the similar tinted long gown, was only the cotton material is worse, on the waist merely was cotton tape, without any decoration. 的确有一名陌生女人在等待他的到来,她穿着与该国男了差不多的浅色长袍,只是布料差一些,腰上仅仅系着一条布带,没有任何装饰。 Two people act affectionate, quick sneaks in a piece of lush thick patch of grass. 两人动作亲昵,很快就钻进一片茂盛的草丛里。 „Seizes sees the pair deceitfully, is now.” Shangguan Fei said excitedly low voice, just about to sets out, was held by Dragon King. “捉奸见双,就是现在。”上官飞兴奋地小声说,刚要起身,被龙王一把抓住。 „First returns to the camp.” Gu Shenwei thought that the issue is not so simple. “先回营。”顾慎为觉得问题不那么简单。 Shangguan Fei first is surprised, afterward knowingly nods, the time that Dragon King waits for more long starts more to hate, to be just right for his intent. 上官飞先是惊讶,随后又心照不宣地点点头,龙王等待的时间越长下手越恨,正合他意。 Gu Shenwei thinks is actually not Shangguan Fei, this all the way, he discovered the much stepped on weed, indicates likely , not only a person who in the woman with the city has an affair. 顾慎为想的却不是上官飞,这一路上,他发现不少被踩踏的杂草,表明与城内女人有染的很可能不只一个人。 Returns to the camp, he transferred everywhere, spoke thoughtlessly to chat with the ordinary soldiers, finally made him surprised, a while ago the swordsman was homesick becomes the illness/quick and Bladesman is depressed, now actually gets better satisfied. 回到营地,他到处转了一圈,跟普通战士们随口闲聊,结果令他惊讶,前段时间剑客思乡成疾、刀客闷闷不乐,现在却都变得心满意足。 Gu Shenwei awakens suddenly, for half a month, he rarely hears the complaint, are few little not normally. 顾慎为猛然醒悟,这半个月来,他很少听到抱怨,少得有点不正常。 Suddenly, most loyal swordsman, had no way entirely to believe. 突然之间,最忠诚的剑客,也没法完全相信了。 Gu Shenwei has transferred a duty to Shangguan Fei, in military compound, only then he impossible to be enticed by the woman, „tomorrow you will also go to the riverside, if there are woman to wave to you, you well chat with her.” 顾慎为向上官飞交待了一个项任务,在军营里,只有他不可能受到女人的诱惑,“明天你也去河边,如果有女人向你招手,你就好好跟她聊聊。” „Dragon King, you know that I do not like......” “龙王,你知道我不喜欢……” „I know, therefore trusts you.” “我知道,所以才信任你。” „But I cannot understand here language.” “可是我听不懂这里的语言。” „Issue is very simple, I only want to know in the city many people.” “问题很简单,我只想知道城里到底有多少人。” Room claimed Land of Fragrance , is less than 6000 people, can actually not supply sufficient food to more than 1600 soldiers difficultly, Gu Shenwei was getting more and more suspicious. 室利摩罗声称香积之国只有不到6000人,却能毫不困难地向1600多名战士供应充足的食物,顾慎为的疑心越来越重了。 Shangguan Fei looks distressed, would rather not receiving duty. 上官飞愁眉苦脸,不太情愿地接受任务。 Previous day in the evening, he reported after carrying out orders to Dragon King, „the mouth of woman was very strict, she understood my meaning, but has installed muddled, only if grasped to interrogate and torture her, I may not have other means.” 隔天傍晚,他向龙王复命,“女人的嘴很严,她明白我的意思,可是一直装糊涂,除非把她抓来拷问,我可没别的办法了。” In order to make up for this not too successful duty, Shangguan Fei asked some contents, before sees Dragon King, tries to prove unmistakably to several soldiers of being better, „this Land of Fragrance, simply is an ultra-large brothel, so long as does not rain, every day most little has dozens women to be in the camp periphery to tour, waits for the man specially, all comes are welcome, has not received money, really does business at a loss the business. The man of entire battalion, except for these savages, it is estimated that moistened to the advantage, was hiding the truth from a Dragon King person.” 为了弥补这趟不太成功的任务,上官飞多问了一些内容,来见龙王之前向几名要好的战士求证无误,“这个香积之国,简直就是一家超大的妓院嘛,只要不下雨,每天最少有几十名女人在营里周围游逛,专等男人,来者不拒,还不收钱,真是赔本买卖。全营的男人,除了那些野人,估计都沾到好处了,就瞒着龙王一个人。” The fresh flower spreads the place of wild being harmless, immediately turned into the trap numerous is at sinisterly, but Gu Shenwei cannot master, detains a strange army, has any advantage to Land of Fragrance, „we need to enter a city.” 鲜花遍野的无害之地,立刻变成了陷阱重重的阴险所在,可顾慎为还是搞不懂,留住一支陌生的军队,到底对香积之国有什么好处,“咱们需要进一次城。” „We?” Shangguan Fei is not always interested in the risk, but he does not dare to reject the order of Dragon King, „, goes, what in has a look at city procuress child long/grows.” “咱们？”上官飞对冒险向来不感兴趣,可他更不敢拒绝龙王的命令,“嘿嘿,去就去,看看城里的老鸨子长什么样。”
