The dim light of night arrives, rushes about day of soldiers actually unable to rest, dismount moves the leg and foot at most in turn, spoke several idle talks, the burden of excretion stomach. 夜色降临,奔波一天的士兵们却不能休息,顶多轮流下马活动一下腿脚,说几句闲话,排泄肠胃的负担。. Zhang Ji rushes under escorting of more than ten guards, compared with the Central Plains person earlier a meeting, discovered that meeting place in the tent of roadside, outside gathers round three soldiers, only then the manpower of most surrounding holds the flare, they have dozens remote to the tent, if some people want through these to determine luminously the position of tent, will be disappointed. 张楫在十余名卫兵的护送下赶到,比中原人稍早一会,发现会面地点是在路边的一顶帐篷,外面围着三圈士兵,只有最外围的人手举火把,他们离帐篷有数十步之遥,若是有人想通过这些光亮确定帐篷的位置,将会非常失望。 The flare of entire Shu Le army are miserable, occupies like one in the great snake of Sky Mountain under foot, only reveals the half snake head. 整支疏勒军的火把都少得可怜,像一条盘踞在天山脚下的巨蛇,只露出半截蛇头。 Zhang Ji turns around to look, beyond several li (0.5 km), the luminous platoon of Golden Roc army becomes long one row, is the festival said likely in the team of inspection lamp journey, adds several points of jubilation, but does not bring the fear. 张楫转身望去,十几里以外,金鹏军的光亮排成长长的一列,像是节曰里提灯出行的队伍,平添几分喜庆而不是带来恐惧。 The teaching mister frowned, to a guard whisper number language, the guard nods again and again, transfers the direction to drive toward the Golden Roc army. 教书先生皱起眉头,向一名卫兵耳语数语,卫兵连连点头,调转方向朝金鹏军驶去。 A Shu Le military officer goes forward to greet, Zhang Ji will accompany stays outside, alone enters the tent, discovered that Dragon King is not, what waits in inside is Xu Xiaoyi and Chu Nanping. 一名疏勒军官上前迎接,张楫将随从都留在外面,独自走进帐篷,发现龙王不在,等在里面的是许小益和初南屏。 „Dragon King immediately.” Xu Xiaoyi said worn out. “龙王马上就到。”许小益有气无力地说。 Zhang Ji nods, probably does not know him to be the same, thought that Dragon King also is really discrete, is afraid some people to assassinate him, after must waits for the guest to enter the tent, come, worthily is the Killer(s) family background. 张楫点点头,好像不认识他一样,心想龙王还真是谨慎,害怕有人刺杀他,非要等客人进入帐篷之后自己才来,不愧是杀手出身。 This is an ordinary marching tent, big Zhang Ji must bend the waist, after stiff physique, the hair withstand/top to the awning is less than two chi (0.33 m), inside is unvarnished, only suspends three crude positions in a hierarchy, Zhang Ji is sitting down immodestly, waits for Pang Jing and Dragon King, Golden Roc Castle is in the absolute weak trend now, he naturally is unable to set many requests. 这是一顶普通的行军帐篷,高大的张楫得弯腰进来,挺直身板之后,头发离篷顶不到两尺,里面并无装饰,只摆着三张简陋的交椅,张楫不客气地坐下,等候庞靖与龙王,金鹏堡现在处于绝对的弱势,他自然无法提出过多的要求。 The atmosphere is somewhat awkward, Zhang Ji changes Xu Xiaoyi, said: „Our beforehand agreements looked like must become invalid.” 气氛有些尴尬,张楫转向许小益,说:“咱们之前的协议看来是要作废了。” The face of Xu Xiaoyi is all of a sudden red, afterward said with clenched jaws: „Is you, was you have harmed me.” 许小益的脸一下子通红,随后咬牙切齿地说:“都是你,是你害了我。” The Zhang Ji facial expression is severe, „I do not understand why you will have this idea?” 张楫的神情严厉起来,“我不明白你为什么会有这种想法？” Is this confident appearance, once made Xu Xiaoyi give up insisting that many years of loyalty, „you promised me...... You promise me......” 就是这种成竹在胸的模样,曾让许小益放弃坚持多年的忠诚,“你向我保证……你向我保证……” Zhang Ji frowned, a little patiently did not say: „You are not the child, the matter judge, I am the Supreme King military strategist, naturally ensure Dragon King will defeat can die, strangely what this has? The matter is this, has the defeat, likely a man, do not shirk the responsibility.” 张楫皱起眉头,有点不耐烦地说:“你又不是小孩,事情得自己判断,我是独步王的军师,当然保证龙王会败会死,这有什么奇怪的吗？事情就是这样,有成有败,像个男人,不要推卸责任。” Xu Xiaoyi is half of the day speechless, suddenly rises with a spring, wants to plunge Zhang Ji, actually held on by Chu Nanping, „he is the Dragon King guest.” 许小益半晌无语,突然一跃而起,想要扑向张楫,却被初南屏一把拉住,“他是龙王的客人。” Zhang Ji shakes the head disappointedly, thought that Dragon King capable person are too few, is just like this Xu Xiaoyi, for Dragon King works appears intelligent clever, once leaves Dragon King, restores the original appearance, on rascal not many differences with south city street in a business area. 张楫失望地摇摇头,心想龙王身边的能人太少,好比这个许小益,替龙王做事的时候显得聪明伶俐,一旦离开龙王,就恢复本来的模样,跟南城街面上的无赖没有多少区别。 But why will Dragon King win? The Zhang Ji train of thought leaves Xu Xiaoyi, even not in this tent. 可龙王为什么会胜呢？张楫的思绪离开许小益,甚至不在这顶帐篷里。 Pang Jing lifts the tent/account curtain, searches half body, asked with amazement: „Dragon King?” 庞靖掀开帐帘,探进来半个身子,惊讶地问:“龙王呢？” „Immediately.” Xu Xiaoyi opens the mouth reluctantly, the courage of great difficulty accumulating blinked uses up. “马上就到。”许小益勉强开口,好不容易聚积的一股勇气眨眼就用光了。 Pang Jing smacks the lips discontentedly, hesitant one will enter the tent, sits on the middle seat of honor directly, said with a smile to Zhang Ji: „This reminded me at night the day before yesterday, before the martial arts contest started, I, Dragon King, Supreme King was still discussing that who this was responsible for Iron Mountain, everybody did not want, the mutual shove around, has not thought that then two days of free time, the situation inverted, wants to make Iron Mountain reverse to itself. Haha, the humans affair is variable.” 庞靖不满地咂嘴,犹豫一会才走进帐篷,直接坐在中间的主位上,对张楫笑道:“这让我想起前天晚上,比武开始之前,我、龙王、独步王还在讨论谁该对铁山负责,大家都不要,互相推来推去,没想到这才两天工夫,形势就颠倒过来,都想让铁山倒向自己。哈哈,世事无常。” The Zhang Ji complexion is not quite attractive, may raise slightly to protect the officer to salute to Western Region, the corners of the mouth raise, has smiled, then sat the position in a hierarchy, said: „Yes, the humans affair is variable, the day before yesterday cannot think that today's matter, cannot think of the tomorrow's change today.” 张楫的脸色不太好看,可还是欠身向西域都护官行礼,嘴角微扬,算是笑了一下,然后坐回交椅,说:“是啊,世事无常,前天想不到今天的事情,今天也想不到明天的变化。” Pang Jing laughs happily, no matter how Western Region changes, cannot change on him, because he is the Central Plains person, is grass vertical of Western Region this chessgame, but is not the board game piece. 庞靖开心地大笑,不管西域怎么变,都变不到他头上,因为他是中原人,是西域这盘棋局的艹纵者,而不是棋子。 Dragon King walks, Pang Jing greeted warmly, probably he was really the owner of this tent. 龙王走进来,庞靖热情地打招呼,好像他真是这顶帐篷的主人。 Xu Xiaoyi salutes to Dragon King respectfully, bringing Chu Nanping to leave, a few words had not said, regards a time ordinary duty this. 许小益恭敬地向龙王行礼,带着初南屏离开,一句话也没说,将这当成一次再普通不过的任务。 Gu Shenwei sits down, looks at two people backs. 顾慎为坐下,看着两人的背影。 Pang Jing has misunderstood the meaning in Dragon King vision, said sigh with emotion: „Day being jealous person with outstanding ability, a person , if extremely prominent in some aspect, sooner or later can encounter the misfortune, Luo Qi Kang is the example, Chu Nanping is also, the appearance of unparalleled in the world, the eye actually went bad. Oh, is Old Man Mu, he is Killer(s) that the heaven sends, died finally, what a pity, died easily, actually to give us to save a big gold.” 庞靖误解了龙王目光中的含义,感慨地说:“天妒英才,一个人若是在某方面太过突出,早晚会遭遇不幸,骆启康就是例子,初南屏也是,天下无双的容貌,眼睛却偏偏坏了。唉,都是木老头,他就是上天派来的杀手,总算死了,可惜,死得太容易了些,却给咱们都省下一大笔黄金。” The tent is narrow and small, Pang Jingcai said several characters, Xu Xiaoyi and Chu Nanping have put down the curtain, the form vanish. 帐篷狭小,庞靖才说出几个字,许小益与初南屏已经放下帘幕,身影消失了。 Gu Shenwei takes back the vision, „what do we want to discuss?” 顾慎为收回目光,“咱们要谈什么呢？” Zhang Ji both hands are pressing the knee, said: „A 100,000 people of army is approaching thousand to ride the pass/test, the war at present, but I hope to make the pen transaction, prevents this not to have the victory and defeat war.” 张楫双手按着膝盖,说:“一支100000人的军队正在接近千骑关,战争就在眼前,可我希望做笔交易,阻止这场没有胜负的战争。” Xu Xiaoyi intends to slow down the footsteps, every time walks several steps to turn head to look at Chu Nanping, discovered quickly oneself do not need so discretely, Chu Nanping with tightly, one step has not gone astray very much, the pits and stone in ground can also bypass with ease, not like the vision blurring person. 许小益有意放慢脚步,每走几步就回头看一眼初南屏,很快发现自己无需如此谨慎,初南屏跟得很紧,一步也没有走错,就连地面上的坑洼和石块也能轻松绕过,一点也不像视力模糊的人。 His vision still appeared empty vacant, probably changed returns the several years ago appearances, was pure and callous. 只是他的目光仍然显得空洞茫然,好像又变回到几年前的模样,单纯而冷酷。 The Tie Linglong front surface walks, Xu Xiaoyi did not need to undertake the role of guide again. 铁玲珑迎面走来,许小益不用再承担领路人的角色了。 Chu Nanping stops the footsteps, asked: „We go to nobody's place.” 初南屏停下脚步,问道:“咱们去没人的地方吧。” Xu Xiaoyi nods, has forgotten the eye disease of good friend. 许小益点点头,忘了好朋友的眼疾。 This chapter is Tie Linglong guides, Xu Xiaoyi comes, Chu Nanping brings up the rear, three people walk to the south, is far from the army and tent, enters the wilderness gradually, bypasses shrubberies, goes down together the gentle slope, turns around again, anything could not see, occasionally the horse's neigh will transmit. 这回是铁玲珑带路,许小益居中,初南屏殿后,三人向南方行走,离军队和帐篷越来越远,渐渐进入荒野,绕过一片灌木丛,走下一道缓坡,再转身,什么都看不到了,偶尔会有一声马嘶传来。 Moon has lacked the majority, exceptionally is bright, Xu Xiaoyi this whole life has not seen such bright night, looks out into the distance, the Sky Mountain outline puts at clearly at present, Chu Nanping and Tie Linglong are shining likely, sends complete(ly) present, beyond several, three horses are lowering the head, gnaw a small bunch of thick patch of grass in food ground. 月亮缺了一多半,却异常明亮,许小益这辈子也没见过这么亮的夜晚,极目远眺,天山的轮廓清晰地摆在眼前,身前身后的初南屏与铁玲珑像是在发光,毫发毕现,十几步以外,三匹马正低着头,啃食地面上的一小簇草丛。 „You thought where is quite unnecessary?” Chu Nanping asked. “你觉得哪里比较多余？”初南屏问。 „?” Xu Xiaoyi has not understood these words the meaning. “啊？”许小益没明白这句话的意思。 Tie Linglong explained: „Look, that three horses are give you to prepare, is bringing enough ten days of food and water, you ride them to walk for probably 1-2 days to east, will arrive in Shuangquan Village, turns from there to south, enters Xiaoyao Lake Shi Guo......” 铁玲珑解释道:“瞧,那三匹马是给你准备的,带着足够十天的食物与水,你骑着它们向东走大概一两天,就会到双泉村,从那里拐向南,进入逍遥海石国……” Xu Xiaoyi more listens more startled, „what meaning, do you want to put me to walk?” 许小益越听越惊,“什么意思,你们要放我走？” „It is not we, is Dragon King.” Tie Linglong sighed, probably would rather not, „he gave you that many opportunities, you actually did not run, has to let go you by us, but you must leave behind a thing, from now on conceals identity, cannot make others discover that Dragon King was lenient to you.” “不是我们,是龙王。”铁玲珑叹了口气,好像不太情愿,“他给你那么多次机会,你却一直不跑,只好由我们把你放走了,但你得留下点东西,今后隐姓埋名,不能让别人发现龙王对你手软。” Xu Xiaoyi is opening the mouth, cannot believe that own ear, changes Chu Nanping, „real?” 许小益张着嘴巴,不敢相信自己的耳朵,转向初南屏,“是真的吗？” Chu Nanping is grasping the sword hilt, „why do we want to deceive you?” 初南屏握着剑柄,“我们干嘛要骗你？” Xu Xiaoyi has thought a meeting, shakes the head, „I do not believe that this is the idea of Dragon King, he to these words that you did speak personally?” 许小益想了一会,摇摇头,“我不相信这是龙王的主意,他对你们亲口说的这些话吗？” Tie Linglong anxiously and sighed, „naturally does not have, did Dragon King possibly speak such words? But he contends in martial arts to end later has not killed you immediately, has not closed you, even has not published the news, wasn't is giving you opportunity to escape? You are booing, running whereabouts Elder Sister prays for rescue, gets bigger and bigger the matter.” 铁玲珑焦躁地又叹了一口气,“当然没有,龙王怎么可能说这样的话？可他比武结束之后没有立刻杀死你,没有把你关起来,甚至没有公布消息,不就是在给你机会逃跑吗？你倒好,跑去向姐姐求救,把事情越闹越大。” Xu Xiaoyi could not say a few words dull, the Tie Linglong words truly a little truth, entire yesterday can escape from Jade City easily, will not receive any detains, even can carry off a large quantities of gold and silver, that was he collects the information the funds. 许小益呆呆地说不出一句话来,铁玲珑的话确实有点道理,整个昨天自己都能轻易逃出璧玉城,不会受到任何拦阻,甚至可以带走一大批金银,那是他收集情报的经费。 But he too has been afraid, thought that entire Western Region and Northern Court are the Dragon King domains, oneself have no place to go, he has not thought that Dragon King will not capture him. 可他太害怕了,觉得整个西域和北庭都是龙王的地盘,自己无处可逃,他可没想过,龙王根本不会追捕他。 Is looks at the Xu Xiaoyi appearance to be pitiful probably, Tie Linglong has relaxed the tone slightly, „small initially to the Dragon King important person, this is the last opportunity, Dragon King is well aware, agreed that therefore do not ask, leaves behind a hand, foot anything, showed that you died, then-- never come back again, goes to Land of Fragrance, there vast territory with a sparse population, is suiting hides.” 大概是瞧许小益样子可怜,铁玲珑稍稍缓和了语气,“小初向龙王要人,这是最后一次机会,龙王心知肚明,还是同意了,所以你不要多问,留下一只手啊、脚啊什么的,证明你已经死了,然后——永远不要再回来了,去香积之国吧,那里地广人稀,正适合藏身。” „My Elder Sister?” Xu Xiaoyi asked at a loss. “我姐姐呢？”许小益茫然问。 „Do not think her, she has not done the wrong thing, Dragon King will not punish her, waits several years later, I with small beginning tells her again the truth.” “别想她了,她又没做错事,龙王不会惩罚她的,等过几年,我跟小初再告诉她实情。” Xu Xiaoyi changes once again is small beginning, probably to the Tie Linglong words cannot believe. 许小益又一次转向小初,好像对铁玲珑的话还是不敢相信。 Chu Nanping stands straightly, the long sword in hand momentarily can come out of the sheath. 初南屏笔直站立,手中的长剑随时都会出鞘。 „A bit faster decision.” Tie Linglong urged, „I suggested you gave up a foot, walked, although was affected, but can also ride a horse, without the hand, works is not convenient.” “快点决定。”铁玲珑催促道,“我建议你放弃一只脚,走路虽然受影响,但是还可以骑马,没有手,做事就不方便了。” Xu Xiaoyi is not willing to open the mouth, Chu Nanping said: „Dragon King had not said faith token that actually must kill people.” 许小益还是不肯开口,初南屏说:“龙王其实没说非要杀人的信物。” „Dragon King anything had not said.” Tie Linglong raises the sound slightly, „releases people are our two independently decides, if news revelation, is you and I shoulders the responsibility, has not related with Dragon King. Xu Xiaoyi after all...... Can't a penalty not?” “龙王什么也没说。”铁玲珑略微抬高声音,“放人是咱们两个自作主张,万一消息泄露,也是你和我承担责任,跟龙王没关系。许小益毕竟……总不能一点惩罚也不受吧？” Xu Xiaoyi looks at Tie Linglong, spanned a thing in chest cavity to disrupt suddenly, he drew big air, discovered that the flavor of wilderness was so tasty, almost did not endure to shout again. 许小益看着铁玲珑,横亘在胸腔里的一块东西突然碎裂了,他吸进一大口空气,发现荒野的味道如此鲜美,几乎不忍再呼出来。 „No, I do not run away.” He said, thought all are so simple, „I have done matter, I undertake, tell me Elder Sister, this is my idea, is I wants dead, please she do not complain about anybody. Small beginning, help me, last time.” “不,我不逃。”他说,觉得一切都是如此简单,“我做过的事,我承担,告诉我姐姐,这是我的主意,是我自己想死,请她不要埋怨任何人。小初,帮我个忙吧,最后一次。” Tie Linglong thought that has wasted the time, just about to opens the mouth, swallowed back the innermost thoughts, turns around to go out several steps, making them decide voluntarily. 铁玲珑觉得浪费了时间,刚要开口,又将心里话咽了回去,转身走出几步,让他们两个自行定夺。 Chu Nanping still grasped the sword, has not actually drawn out. 初南屏仍然握剑,却没有拔出。 „My Elder Sister said right.” Xu Xiaoyi said in a soft voice, „, if I guard the door for Dragon King, when accompanies, will not have such matter, I will be joyful, we will not be probably estranged, but this did not complain about Dragon King, was I am too greedy, Dragon King deprived the property rights time, I is actually very discontented. I too overestimated myself, was small beginning, sometimes you also overestimated yourself, please help to give me a sword, I rather died in your hand, this was Dragon King to I biggest kindness, only then you can explain clearly to my Elder Sister. However asked your matter, do not think any swordsmanship, you were not such person, treasured the iron girl, although the world was big, only then she only the person who was worth cherishing, was not I, was not Dragon King, only then she.” “我姐姐说得对。”许小益轻声说,“如果我只是替龙王看门,或者当一名随从,就不会发生这样的事,我还会非常快乐,咱们大概也不会生分,可这不怨龙王,是我自己太贪心,龙王剥夺财权的时候,我心里其实很不满。我太高估自己了,小初,有时候你也高估自己了,请你帮忙给我一剑,我宁愿死在你手上,这是龙王对我最大的恩典,而且只有你能向我姐姐解释清楚。但是求你一件事,不要想着什么剑法,你不是那样的人,珍惜铁姑娘,世界虽大,只有她才是唯一值得你爱护的人,不是我,也不是龙王,只有她。” Chu Nanping draws a sword slowly, only said three characters, „will not be painful.” 初南屏慢慢地拔剑,只说了三个字,“不会痛。” Not far away Tie Linglong wants to cry bewilderedly. 不远处的铁玲珑莫名其妙地想要哭。 ( Sought subscription to seek recommendation)( to be continued.) （求订阅求推荐）(未完待续。)
