The slaughter handsome thought that own enduring patiently soon to the end, „Northern Court is really not the place that the person treats.” Her right hand makes an effort to grasp the walking stick, its precession ground, is deeper and deeper slowly. 屠翩翩觉得自己的忍耐快要到头了,“北庭真不是人待的地方。”她的右手用力地握着拐杖,将它慢慢旋进地面,越陷越深。 She stands in the crude tent, the ground was still growing the irregular green grass, outside rainwater please from entering, has flooded the ankle area place. 她站在简陋的帐篷里,地面仍长着参差不齐的青草,外面的雨水不请自入,已经淹到了脚踝处。 „This tent, this ground, this rotten bed, this noise of the rain and this mutton, the corpse stink of distant place, compelled me quickly insanely.” She looks at opposite three unexpected visitors, on the face the facial expression is firm and resolute and arrogant, „only if, but attains the Old King Han head, I will not walk.” “这帐篷、这地面、这烂床、这雨声、这羊肉,还有远处的尸臭味,快把我逼疯了。”她看着对面的三名不速之客,脸上神情坚毅而孤傲,“可是除非拿到老汗王头颅,我绝不会走。” „I am not the Old King Han head.” Gu Shenwei said calmly, one on the left and other on the right is standing in him Tu Gou and Fan Yong da. “我不是来说老汗王头颅的。”顾慎为平静地说,在他一左一右站着屠狗与范用大。 Fan Yong da has the wound in the body, insisted that must accompany Dragon King to come together, only then he can understand various ciphers that the Central Plains school leaves behind, found the Kongtong Faction stopover. 范用大有伤在身,坚持要陪龙王一起来,也只有他能看懂中原门派留下的各种暗号,找到崆峒派的落脚之处。 „Tomorrow the noontime martial arts contest, Dragon King thought can oneself definitely win?” The slaughter handsome ridicule asked that obviously was confident to two Qingcheng leaders. “明天午时的比武,龙王觉得自己肯定能胜？”屠翩翩讥讽地问道,显然对两位青城掌门信心十足。 Tu Gou stands in front of Elder Sister, felt oneself short half, was strong the courage saying: „Senior Sister, Dragon King comes to inquire individual to you.” 屠狗一站在姐姐面前,就感到自己矮了半截,壮起胆子说:“师姐,龙王来向你打听个人。” „Who is your Senior Sister?” The slaughter handsome reprimanded fierce, „you two now are the subordinates of foreigner, had making of martial arts contest, we put together life and death now.” “谁是你师姐？”屠翩翩厉声斥道,“你们两个现在是胡人的部属,要不是有比武之约,咱们现在就拼个你死我活。” Tu Gou does not dare to make a sound, shot a look at Fan Yong da, throws to master the nephew the difficult problem. 屠狗不敢吱声了,瞥了一眼范用大,将难题抛给师侄。 Fan Yong da coughed, partly lowers the head saying: „Big one's teacher's older brother, Dragon King is actually the Central Plains person.” 范用大咳了一声,半垂着头说:“大师伯,龙王其实是中原人。” „Where person regardless of the past were, was not loyal to the emperor, was not the Central Plains person!” “无论从前是哪里人,不忠于皇帝,就再也不是中原人！” „Can this, Kongtong Faction be must treat Dragon King by the ritual of Central Plains?” “可就算这样,崆峒派是不是也要以中原之礼对待龙王？” „Snort, early knows that you will come this set.” The walking stick in slaughter handsome hand entered several cuns (2.5 cm), Dragon King once forgave her life, this was the fact that is unable to deny, „said that inquired anyone, if harmed the Central Plains benefit, I may a character not say.” “哼,早知道你会来这一套。”屠翩翩手中的拐杖又入地数寸,龙王曾经饶过她一命,这是无法否认的事实,“说吧,打听谁,要是有损于中原利益,我可一个字也不说。” „Marshal Yang.” Gu Shenwei said the name. “杨元帅。”顾慎为说出名字。 „Marshal Yang?” The slaughter handsome draws out the walking stick, the place of bottom foot surplus moistened completely the spate, „I understood, can you Gu Clan knife skill, what you be relate with Marshal Yang?” “杨元帅？”屠翩翩拔出拐杖,底部尺余高的地方沾满了泥水,“我明白了,你会顾氏刀法,你跟杨元帅是什么关系？” „I am also surnamed Yang.” Gu Shenwei sent out him in the Western Region false surname, although the increasing number of people know that the Dragon King details, he as far as possible kept secret. “我也姓杨。”顾慎为报出他在西域的假姓,虽然越来越多的人知道龙王的底细,他还是尽可能保密。 „Un, are you child nephew of Marshal Yang? Good, told you also to might as well, everybody said that Marshal Yang was Master Jianghu, but I saw clearly, he was disciple of the seeking fame, ‚hero’ character placed on him, was really a big joke.” “嗯,你是杨元帅的子侄？好吧,告诉你也无妨,人人都说杨元帅是江湖大侠,可我看得清清楚楚,他不过是一个沽名钓誉之徒,‘侠’字放在他头上,实在是个大笑话。” Fan Yong da face was red first, inserts the tastes: „But I hear......” 范用大的脸先红了,插口道:“可我听说……” „You hear is idle talk.” The slaughter handsome is impolite breaks master nephew. “你听说的都是废话。”屠翩翩不客气打断师侄。 „Does Marshal Yang, melt the Jianghu enmity the legend to be fake for the slave three years everywhere?” Tu Gou was startled, he just missed to see the chivalrous person who to regard the idol this, does not want such quickly to dump. “难道杨元帅为奴三年、到处化解江湖仇怨的传说都是假的？”屠狗吃了一惊,他刚刚将这位无缘晤面的侠士当成偶像,不想这么快就倒掉。 „Legend mostly real, but Marshal Yang handles these matters to have the goal.” “传说大都是真的,可杨元帅做这些事情另有目的。” „What goal?” Tu Gou is more curious than Dragon King. “什么目的？”屠狗比龙王还要好奇。 „Heh, you do not think, Marshal Yang formerly was a pirate, like this person, how to transfer the surname suddenly, from killing a person and taking his possessions to turn takes pleasure in serving others? He pays respects old Gu General for the master, learns Gu Clan alone gate martial arts first, latter infiltrates the east of the river Luo Family village, learns the first-grade profound swordsmanship, this is his goal, afterward helps people overcome their difficulties, but is the acrobatics of covering their ears and eyes.” “嘿,你们也不想想,杨元帅从前是一名海盗,像他这种人,怎么会突然转姓,从杀人越货变成助人为乐？他先拜老顾将军为师,学会顾氏独门武功,后又混进河东骆家庄,习得第一等的高深剑法,这才是他的目的,事后排忧解难,不过是掩人耳目的把戏而已。” „Not, even if Marshal Yang concurs two martial arts, does not calculate that despicable scandal, he is a chivalrous person, so long as a few words, I also want......” Tu Gou to think that Elder Sister was really arbitrary. “不是吧,就算杨元帅身兼两家的武功,也不算卑鄙的丑事,他是大侠,只要一句话,我也愿意……”屠狗觉得姐姐实在过于武断了。 Fan Yong is nodding greatly, by the Jianghu custom that he understands, Marshal Yang the actions not too much are improper. 范用大也在点头,以他所了解的江湖规矩,杨元帅所作所为并无太多不妥。 „You are not understanding!” The slaughter handsome most hates others' rebuttal, the desperate end opening spits the dirty words, immediately speeds up the language fast to conceal, „is just like Central Plains with Northern Court, two national strength with the water and fire, will carry on the life and death war, a person actually receives the salary in the two sides, you said that this person is shameless?” “你们懂个屁！”屠翩翩最憎恨别人的反驳,情急之下口吐脏字,立刻加快语速掩饰过去,“好比中原跟北庭,两国势同水火,正要进行你死我活的大战,一个人却在两边领取俸禄,你们说这个人无耻不无耻？” Tu Gou and Fan Yong da know in her words to refer, all lowers the head does not speak, no one dares to argue that Dragon King cannot calculate the Northern Court person. 屠狗与范用大知道她话中所指,全都低头不语,谁也不敢辩解说龙王并不能算北庭人。 „Is Gu Clan with Luo Family an enemy?” Gu Shenwei is somewhat surprised, he has not listened to the father and elder brothers to raise two relations, but wants to come carefully, the father indeed had not said that crosses river the word of praise of eastern Luo Family village, Yang Zheng of familiar Jianghu literary reference, as far as possible evades the subject to Luo Family. “顾氏跟骆家是对头吗？”顾慎为有些惊讶,他从来没听父兄提起过两家的关系,不过仔细想来,父亲也的确没说过河东骆家庄的好话,就连熟悉江湖典故的杨峥,对骆家也是尽量避而不谈。 „Far more than is the enemy, radically is the personal enemy, it is said old Gu General was persecuted to death in Imperial Court for the clansman of officer by Luo Family, old Gu General graciousness is heavy to Marshal Yang like mountain, but he not only does not revenge, but also has worked as three years of lackey the thrusting out face to Luo Family, you said that this person can be a chivalrous person?” “何止是对头,根本就是仇人,据说老顾将军就是被骆家在朝中为官的族人逼死的,老顾将军对杨元帅恩重如山,可他不仅不报仇,还腆脸到骆家当了三年奴才,你们说这种人会是大侠吗？” In the Gu Shenwei brain is somewhat chaotic, he had thought father Gu Lun does not have the personal gratitude and grudges in Imperial Court, Wei Song also said that but listens to the slaughter handsome meaning, Gu Family has the mortal enemy actually, the background is not small. 顾慎为脑子里有些混乱,他一直觉得父亲顾仑在朝中没有私人恩怨,就连卫嵩也这么说,可是听屠翩翩的意思,顾家其实是存在死敌的,来头还不小。 The procedure of Marshal Yang also appears very strange, mixes in Golden Roc Castle to be somewhat similar to Gu Shenwei for the slave three years actually, may actually not revenge finally, „hasn't Marshal Yang killed Luo Family anybody?” 杨元帅的做法也显得很奇怪,为奴三年倒是跟顾慎为混入金鹏堡有些相似,可最后却没有报仇,“杨元帅没杀骆家的任何人？” „Naturally has not killed, his relations with the Luo Family is good, Marshal Yang is everywhere good the hero to uphold justice, you think what everybody looks is his face? Is his back east of the river Luo Family village, they to annihilate distressedly, is the expert of seeking fame.” “当然没杀,他跟骆家的关系好着呢,杨元帅到处行侠仗义,你以为大家看的是他的面子吗？是他背后的河东骆家庄,他们狼狈为歼,都是沽名钓誉的高手。” Tu Gou said low voice: „No matter what, the good hero upholds justice always.” 屠狗小声说:“不管怎样,行侠仗义总是真的。” Fan Yong da said to Dragon King by a smaller sound: „Sir health/guard with Luo Family is also an enemy.” 范用大以更小的声音对龙王说:“卫大人跟骆家也是对头。” Gu Shenwei already thinks, Kongtong Faction works for Wei Song, naturally also will involve the Imperial Court dispute, from slaughter handsome to the manner of east of the river Luo Family village, Wei Song obviously with Luo Family is not a friend. 顾慎为早已想到,崆峒派是替卫嵩做事,自然也会牵涉进朝廷纷争,从屠翩翩对河东骆家庄的态度来看,卫嵩显然跟骆家不是朋友。 „What does Qingcheng send with the Luo Family village is relates?” Gu Shenwei puts down the doubts temporarily, his goal is to uncover the Lu Mian loophole, but does not unearth previous generation's gratitude and grudges. “青城派跟骆家庄又是什么关系？”顾慎为暂时放下疑惑,他的目的是找出吕勉的漏洞,而不是挖掘上一代的恩怨。 „Is simple, Luo Family is this martial arts world hegemon, in the clan some people are the high official exactly, Qingcheng sends the position of leader to have the dispute, oneself do not distinguish clear, has to look for Luo Family to decide, Luo Family is not silly, uses them to work for oneself, said that is who captures the Old King Han head, supports who works as the leader, such matter.” “简单得很,骆家恰好是这一届的武林盟主,族里又有人当大官,青城派掌门之位发生争执,自家分辩不清,只好找骆家定夺,骆家也不傻,利用他们为自己做事,说是谁夺得老汗王头颅,就支持谁当掌门,就这么回事。” Tu Gou has not walked in Jianghu for a long time, are not usually many with the Elder Sister words, at this time heard with great interest, asked: „Will the Qingcheng leaders have two? This is Lu Mian with previous generation leader Lü Tong one?” 屠狗好久没在江湖行走,平时跟姐姐的话也不多,这时听得津津有味,问道:“青城掌门怎么会有两位？这个吕勉跟上一代掌门吕通是不是一家啊？” The slaughter handsome stared younger brother one eyes, „Lu Mian is Lü Tong son, your this doesn't know? Lü Tong dies early, the Lu Mian two brothers at that time the sword technique has not become, does not dare to challenge to the willow green garden, now had confidence, snatched the position.” 屠翩翩瞪了弟弟一眼,“吕勉就是吕通的儿子嘛,你怎么连这个都不知道？吕通死得早,吕勉兄弟二人当时剑术未成,不敢向柳青圃挑战,如今有了把握,就来抢位置了。” „Two brothers?” Tu Gou pays attention to the detail in story very much. “兄弟二人？”屠狗很注意故事中的细节。 „Lu Mian and Lü Xinghui......” “吕勉和吕星回……” „Lü Xinghui died.” Gu Shenwei said, remembers that Central Plains swordsman all of a sudden. “吕星回已经死了。”顾慎为说道,一下子想起那名中原剑客。 Before that is imperial court congress starts, Chu Nanping suddenly comprehends alone cultivates the Ruthless Sword Technique secret, Gu Shendai he is seeking to practice the object of sword to the outcastes area, the first person called palace purple brave, at the point of death before , gave Chu Nanping own sword, disclosed that another name was called „palace star to return”. 那还是龙庭大会开始之前,初南屏突然领悟独修无情剑法的秘诀,顾慎带着他到贱民区寻找练剑的对象,第一个人叫宫紫英,临死前将自己的剑送给初南屏,透露另一个名字叫“宫星回”。 Lü Xinghui swordsmanship is elegant, recalled that then scene, Gu Shenwei did not think he has what similarity with the Lu Mian sword technique. 吕星回剑法飘逸,回想当时的情景,顾慎为不觉得他跟吕勉的剑术有何相似之处。 „Died?” The slaughter handsome was startled, „can? Lu Mian is one has not mentioned.” “死了？”屠翩翩吃了一惊,“怎么会？吕勉可是一句也没有提起过。” „What he uses is the alias, Lu Mian had not heard probably.” At heart Gu Shenwei thinks is actually, Lu Mian is possibly pretending not to know the circumstances of the matter. “他用的是化名,吕勉大概还没听说。”顾慎为心里想的却是,吕勉更可能在装作不知情。 The slaughter handsome shrugs, she is not interested in Lu brothers, „noon tomorrow will and that's the end tie, either will be Dragon King hands over the head, either will be the Central Plains martial arts world people gives up in light of this, finally can leave this damned place.” 屠翩翩耸耸肩,她对吕氏兄弟不感兴趣,“明天中午就是了结,要么是龙王交出头颅,要么是中原武林人就此放弃,终于可以离开这个鬼地方了。” „But didn't the head turn over to Qingcheng to send?” Tu Gou thought that the Senior Sister has forgotten an important content. “可是头颅不就归青城派了吗？”屠狗觉得师姐忘了一项重要内容。 „Goes, the plan of Kongtong Faction has nothing to do with the rebel.” Slaughter handsome hasty words and stern countenance. “去,崆峒派的计划跟叛徒无关。”屠翩翩疾言厉色。 After the Qingcheng Faction captures the head, but must face more school struggles, this was the part that Gu Shenwei was not interested, „the Lu Mian swordsmanship probably was not the Qingcheng Faction.” 青城派夺得头颅之后,还得面对更多的门派斗争,这就是顾慎为不感兴趣的部分了,“吕勉的剑法好像不是青城派的。” „Haha.” Slaughter handsome laughing several, „I know that Dragon King wants from here to inquire the details of Lu Mian swordsmanship, sorry, cannot say.” “哈哈。”屠翩翩大笑数声,“我就知道龙王想从我这里打听吕勉剑法的底细,抱歉,不能说。” Tu Gou sudden both eyes shine, he to Elder Sister most cannot find, immediately looks to have problems, „actually you have not understood the Lu Mian swordsmanship, is?” 屠狗突然双眼发亮,他对姐姐的最了解不过,立刻看出问题,“其实你也没看懂吕勉的剑法,是不是？” „Do you also want to return to Kongtong Mountains? Hasn't had a face to pay a visit the leader and founder memorial tablet?” “你还想不想回崆峒山？还有没有脸拜见掌门和祖师牌位？” Tu Gou was reproven, bends over, an imposing manner did not have, does not dare to speak the truth, does not dare to say the lie. 屠狗受到训斥,弯腰低头,一点气势也没有了,既不敢说实话,也不敢说谎言。 Gu Shenwei went out of the tent, the rain just stopped, the sky has washed likely, beyond the star month bright. 顾慎为走出帐篷,雨刚停,天空像是洗过一遍,星月分外明亮。 Dozens Kongtong disciples or far or near-earth are standing, the vision is scattered, in the hand is actually grasping the weapon. 数十名崆峒弟子或远或近地站立着,目光分散,手里却都握着兵器。 , 5000 Northern Court cavalries are in a state of readiness, heavy rain has not flushed breaking ranks. 更远一点,5000名北庭骑兵正处于备战状态,一场大雨也没冲散队型。 Steps the return trip, after going out of several li (0.5 km), Gu Shenwei said to Long Fanyun: „You go back first, I have the matter to do, Old Man Mu follows me.” 踏上回程,走出数里之后,顾慎为对龙翻云说:“你们先回去,我有事情要做,木老头跟我走。” Although Long Fanyun is very surprised, but he will not question that order of Dragon King, is Tu Gou opens the mouth to say on the contrary: „Dragon King, this early, tomorrow the noontime will not contend in martial arts, don't you rest?” 龙翻云虽然很惊讶,但他不会质疑龙王的命令,反倒是屠狗开口道:“龙王,这可不早了,明天午时就是比武,你不休息一下吗？” The Old Man Mu itchy several days, „shut up, Dragon King has the idea, having no need for you caring.” 木老头手痒好几天了,“闭嘴,龙王自有主意,用不着你关心。” „I will catch up.” “我会赶上的。” „Lets me and with also stays behind greatly, can always help busy.” Tu Gou is eager to try, closes up for many years, making him double fondly remembers the profession of Jianghu risk. “让我和用大也留下吧,总能帮点忙。”屠狗跃跃欲试,闭关多年,让他加倍怀念江湖冒险的生涯。 Tu Gou and Fan Yong da martial arts and Western Region Killer(s) extremely few coordination, but they are familiar with the Central Plains character, may be helpful, Gu Shenwei agreed. 屠狗与范用大的武功与西域杀手殊少配合,但他们熟悉中原人物,或许会有帮助,顾慎为同意了。 Therefore, sometimes to after midnight, 5000 Northern Court cavalries return to the military compound, Dragon King and other people stay in the wilderness. 因此,时至子夜之后,5000名北庭骑兵返回军营,龙王等四人却留在荒野之中。 A Fang Wenshi night has not slept, heard after this news is greatly disappointed, complained at heart Dragon King more and more not like Military commander, after several double-hour, this complaint became publicizes. 方闻是一夜未眠,听说这个消息之后大失所望,心里埋怨龙王越来越不像一军统帅,几个时辰之后,这种埋怨变得公开了。 Noontime, Central Plains martial arts world public figures will go to the military compound on invitation, Dragon King has not actually made an appearance. 午时将至,中原武林人士应邀来到军营,龙王却没有露面。 „King must say sends the cauldron, the scheme is in private full, must keep one's word outwardly, said that noontime contends in martial arts on the noontime contends in martial arts, cannot be late, this...... Where is Dragon King at?” Fang Wenshi was anxious the face to be red. “君王就得一言发鼎,私下计谋百出,明面得讲信用,说午时比武就午时比武,一刻也不能晚,这……龙王到底在哪啊？”方闻是急得脸都红了。 Long Fanyun feels in a terrified way rebukes oneself, boldly thrusts forward saying: „Makes me go on stage, this martial arts contest had not said in any case must be Dragon King acts.” 龙翻云感到惶恐自责,挺身说道:“让我上场,反正这场比武也没说必须是龙王出面。” Long Fanyun is a brave general, but spoke of the martial arts contest to be far on the difference, Shangguan Fei first shaking the head, but he does not want to shoulder such big responsibility, „Moullin, your knife skill was best, but also has fought with them.” 龙翻云是员猛将,但是说到比武就差远了,上官飞第一个摇头,但他不想承担这么大的责任,“莫林,你刀法最好,还跟他们交过手。” „I can go on stage.” Moullin said lightly, „confrontation willow green garden I have seven points of assurance, as for Lu Mian, is less than 30% odds of success.” “我可以上场。”莫林平淡地说,“对阵柳青圃我有七分把握,至于吕勉,只有不到三成胜算。” „This what to do?” Fang Wenshi touches own ears and cheeks, „I early said that should not agree to contend in martial arts, but since compare, cannot lose......” “这怎么办？”方闻是抓耳挠腮,“我早说不该同意比武,可既然要比,就绝不能输……” „Makes me try.” “让我试试。” In the military compound also several experts, Han Wuxian and Shangguan Yun on own initiative have not requested a combat assignment, the person who opening the mouth is Chu Nanping. 军营中还有几位高手,韩无仙与上官云都没有主动请战,开口的人是初南屏。 Fang Wenshi is puzzled, although he does not understand martial arts, but guesses correctly a matter from the Dragon King sentence words: The youngster swordsman present is worse than the past, martial arts drops much. 方闻是大惑不解,他虽然不懂武功,但从龙王的句里话间猜到一件事:少年剑客今不如昔,武功下降不少。 „Your sword...... Didn't break?” Fang Wenshi said carefully. “你的剑……不是断了吗？”方闻是小心说道。 „I have a handle.” Chu Nanping is somewhat desolate. “我还有一柄。”初南屏有些冷淡。 Fang Wenshi suddenly discovered that usually always stands with Chu Nanping in Tie Linglong disappears unexpectedly, the secretly thought, the young lover acts difficult, will not crack a joke with the Dragon King important matter. 方闻是突然发现平时总跟初南屏站在一块的铁玲珑竟然不见踪影,暗道,小情侣闹别扭,不会拿龙王的大事开玩笑吧。 ( to be continued ) （未完待续）
