One such as is expected to the Capital City traveling schedule from the small town smoothly, Zhou Yu has become friends with several new friends clear while convenient, has the inn shop owner, there is a Jianghu hero of meeting by chance, when will be perhaps useful. 由小镇到京城的行程一如预料中顺利,周羽清顺便结交了几位新朋友,有客栈店主,也有偶遇的江湖豪杰,没准什么时候就会用得上。. In Zhou Yu clear surface in high spirits, is hiding at heart actually the huge restlessness. 周羽清表面上兴高采烈,心里却藏着巨大的不安。 That night after and Han Fen talked, the Zhou Yu clear has awakened the old deity immediately, to him showed that Huo Yun condition, strength card female was extremely dangerous, should not the belt/bring in the side, either persuade to quit her, either discarded her martial arts, remained to do to coerce the Dragon King hostage. 那一夜与韩芬交谈之后,周羽清立刻去叫醒了老神仙,向他说明霍允的状态,力证此女极度危险,绝不该带在身边,要么将她劝退,要么废掉她的武功,留做要挟龙王的人质。 A latter method is despicable, the Zhou Yu clear was only the suggestion can such do, he suggested to persuade to quit, Han Fen do not bring, that was accomplishes to mess things up insufficient burdens. 后一种手段过于卑劣,周羽清只是暗示可以这么做,他更建议劝退,连韩芬也不要带,那是个成事不足败事有余的累赘。 The result old deity has rejected entirely, he is rubbing the eye, a dispirited appearance, my intent has decided that you did not need to manage, slept quickly, had the ingenious plan for the master.” 结果老神仙通通拒绝了,他揉着眼睛,一副萎靡不振的样子,“我意已决,你就不用管了,快去睡觉吧,为师自有妙计。” The honorable people put out a hand place above once again the direction, probably his all behaviors are the heaven arrange. 真人又一次伸手指向上方,好像他的一切行为都是上天安排好的。 Very early in the morning after the time said started off, the honorable person facial expression is good, kept chatting with Han Fen, occasionally also will draw the other two, as if forgot cleanly the caution of apprentice. 次曰一早上路以后,真人气色不错,跟韩芬聊个没完,偶尔还会将另外两人拉进来,似乎将徒弟的警示忘得一干二净。 The Zhou Yu first secondary leaves the light doubts clear from this, the old deity was really old, already a little...... Muddled. 周羽清由此第一次生出淡淡的疑惑,老神仙是不是真的老了,已经有点……糊涂了。 He does not dare deeply to ponder, but saw each time the old deity inserts funny dialog with Han Fen, when does not have appropriately teased meaning, this thought in the heart will recover, was one by one intense. 他不敢对此深入思考,可是每次看到老神仙跟韩芬插科打诨,甚至不得体地带有调笑意味时,这个念头都会在心中复苏,一次比一次强烈。 Finally three days of traveling schedule, Zhou Yu monitors Huo Yun and master clear in turn, thought that own energy quickly is insufficient. 最后三天行程,周羽清轮流监视霍允与师父,觉得自己的精力都快不够用了。 Finally arrives at Capital City, the old deity has not made the matter that does not conform to the status, Huo Yun has several times to display very strangely, but vitality/angry, her words are not few, whoever provokes the thread of conversation, she is perfunctory un two. 终于到达京城,老神仙没有做出更不符合身份的事情,霍允有几次表现得非常怪异,但并未“生气”,她的话很少,无论谁挑起话头,她都是敷衍地嗯两声。 Zhou Yu thought clear Huo Yun is restraining the fluctuation of innermost feelings forcefully, when falls in torrents finally, but time, only feared that will be more terrifying, therefore his restlessness also and said entirely to increase, started to hope Dragon King was quicker takes away this insane woman. 周羽清觉得霍允在强行克制内心的波动,等到最终倾泄而出的时候,只怕会更加恐怖,因此他的不安也在与曰俱增,开始盼望着龙王快些将这个疯女人领走。 The Capital City situation was not very optimistic, has assassination past more than 20 days in Imperial Palace, is who did not have the conclusion with the honored person who desolate king heir apparent simultaneously was murdered, down to the rumor rose from all directions, the ministers also became suspect, in the palace is actually not willing to give any view, the emperor is still not willing to have an audience with the emperor-- this cannot explain anything, although now the emperor is young, but several years ago started little to have an audience with the emperor. 京城的事态很不乐观,发生在皇宫之内的刺杀事件过去20多天了,与萧王世子同时遇害的贵人是谁仍无定论,以至谣言四起,就连大臣们也变得疑心起来,宫内却迟迟不肯给出任何说法,皇帝仍然不肯上朝——这说明不了什么,当今皇帝虽然还年轻,可是从几年前开始就很少上朝了。 The Imperial Court manner is ambiguous, the only advantage is Kongtong Faction avoids a tribulation temporarily, the government authorities send out large amount post a reward to capture Assassin(s), Lin Xiaoshan impressively in row, but Chen Jinke, his present status is not very fuzzy, may be the Assassin(s) partner, may be the pure victim, nobody gives the conclusion. 朝廷态度暧昧,唯一的好处是崆峒派暂时躲过一劫,官府发出巨额悬赏追捕刺客,林小山赫然在列,但是陈锦克不在其中,他现在的身份很模糊,有可能是刺客同伙,也有可能是单纯的受害者,没人给出结论。 But on Jianghu, Kongtong Faction actually faces the extremely disadvantageous situation, various factions had recognized Fan Yong has hired oneself with Chen Jinke greatly Dragon King, particularly Fan Yong da, he was turned in the experience of Northern Court and Western Region, many fact proof, he had received the Dragon King kindness, and publicizes to it kneels down to give loyalty. 可是在江湖上,崆峒派却面临极为不利的处境,各门各派认定了范用大与陈锦克已经投靠龙王,尤其是范用大,他在北庭西域的经历又被翻出来,诸多事实证明,他曾经受过龙王的恩惠,并公开向其下跪效忠。 Then, sending under custody Lin Xiaoshan to go to the Luo Family village by ** the plan of Dragon King appeared very suspicious, the plan of Fan Yong da formulation, he most understood Dragon King personally, knew perfectly well that the fearfulness of Killer(s), has actually formed a chaotic team, looked like keeps loophole intentionally. 如此一来,押送林小山前往骆家庄以**龙王的计划就显得非常可疑了,范用大亲自制定的计划,他最了解龙王,明知杀手的可怕,却组建了一支混乱的队伍,就像是故意留出漏洞似的。 The war of Shiliping is more dubious, Fan Yong da leads to go to accept a challenge personally, after martial arts contest victory, actually does not allow the murder, the strict order to capture alive, result dozens Assassin(s) hide among the captive, when the victor relaxes the alert time, they made a move. 十里坪之战更值得怀疑,范用大亲自带队前去应战,比武胜利之后却不允许杀人,严令必须活捉,结果数十名刺客就隐藏在俘虏当中,等到胜利者放松戒备的时候,他们出手了。 The important personages of various various world faction help/gang meetings to the Capital City set, must dead a tragic death ** wants a justice, has not participated that time sends under custody the motion the school, comes in waves, hoping is the Jianghu person of same belief speaks out from a sense of justice. 天下各门各派各帮各会的重要人物都在向京城集合,要为惨死的**讨个公道,就连并未参加那次押送行动的门派,也纷涌而至,愿为江湖同道仗义执言。 Arrives at Capital City first day, Zhou Yu receives these not too wonderful news clear. 到达京城的第一天,周羽清就接到这些不太妙的消息。 Kongtong Faction has the industry in Capital City, four people did not need to live in the inn again, five remained ** awaited eagerly, finally hopes that the old deity masters and disciples, were wild with joy all, the purple crane honorable person has not held on to your hat, they have knelt on the ground complain tearfully. 崆峒派京城拥有产业,四人不用再住在客栈里了,五名留守的**望眼欲穿,终于盼来老神仙师徒,无不欣喜若狂,紫鹤真人还没坐稳,他们已经跪在地上哭诉起来。 In nasal mucus tears, the disadvantageous situation gradually surfaces, has not been in the beyond redemption situation, but is not easy to deal, Kongtong Faction just like has become the Jianghu public enemy, openly announced on difference last. 就是在一把鼻涕一把泪当中,不利形势渐渐浮出水面,还没到不可收拾的地步,但也不易应对,崆峒派俨然已成江湖公敌,就差最后一声公开宣布了。 Zhou Yu rejoiced clear they rush promptly. 周羽清庆幸他们赶到得及时。 Han Fen keeps interrupting, always wants to know that Gu Shenwei whereabouts, ** does not recognize these two women, may not dare to offend, said: Dragon King had not made an appearance, that crowd of Assassin(s) again have not come, various government authorities and schools almost soon Capital City back and forth turned three inside and outside, has caught many people, may not have one to be confirmed is really Assassin(s), dozens people, suddenly went away.” 韩芬不停地插嘴,总想知道顾慎为的下落,**们不认得这两个女人,可也不敢得罪,其中一个说:“龙王一直没露面,就连那群刺客也没再现身,官府和各家门派几乎快要将京城内外来回翻三遍了,抓了不少人,可没有一个被确认真是刺客,好几十人,说没就没了。” Han Fen and Huo Yun are not interested in other matters, ** leads them to go to the guest room to rest, other people continue to the leader told that the Capital City situation, old deity good and evil goes to desolate Palace first, although that side had not said that Brother Chen and teacher's younger brothers model/pattern are...... Is annihilates thin, but the attitude toward this faction was inferior greatly formerly, it is said desolate king was furious, temporarily bore patiently does not send.” 韩芬霍允对其它事情不感兴趣,一名**带着她们去客房休息,其他人继续向掌门讲述京城的形势,“老神仙好歹先去一趟萧王府吧,那边虽然没说陈师弟和范师叔是……是歼细,可是对本派的态度大不如从前了,据说萧王震怒,暂时隐忍不发而已。” After honorable people since taking a seat, is crooked the head, has probably not perceived several, occasionally un on, Zhou Yu clear cannot bear think, if these ** is the beautiful woman, can the master display is warmer. 真人自从落座之后就歪着脑袋,好像没听进去几句,偶尔嗯上一声,周羽清忍不住想,如果这几名**是美女的话,师父会不会表现得更热情一些。 ** Said, wiped the tears, waited for the old deity to speak dull. **们说完了,擦去泪水,呆呆地等着老神仙发话。 The honorable people indeed have not listened many, he thought that oneself brain was not quite sufficient, can only install some most useful information, were many a point unable to withstand, therefore after a while he discovered that humming sound the sound stopped, is on the rise, looked surprisedly, said: This...... The apprentices, you are the doorkeeper are big **, said the idea first.” 真人的确没听进去多少,他觉得自己的脑子不太够用了,只能装些最有用的信息,再多一点就承受不住了,所以过了一会他才发现嗡嗡的声音已经停止,抬起头,惊讶地看了一圈,说:“这个……徒弟,你是监门大**,先说说想法。” Zhou Yu hears to be very careful clear actually from beginning to end, moreover this already thought the good strategy all the way, „the crisis of this faction has two......” 周羽清倒是从头到尾听得很仔细,而且这一路上早已想好策略,“本派的危机有两层……” Said well.” The first few words just exported, the honorable person loudly commended, made on the apprentice face one red, thought with me similar was the same, then said.” “说得好。”第一句话刚出口,真人就大声称赞,令徒弟脸上一红,“跟我想的差不多一样,接着说。” One is the Jianghu crisis, various factions threaten, recognized this faction ** is annihilation that Dragon King sent is thin, it is estimated that will collaborate quickly to launch an attack, but they did not have the clear evidence, I thought that also had the moderate leeway, was acted by me then.” “一层是江湖危机,各派气势汹汹,认准了本派**是龙王派来的歼细,估计很快就会联手发难,但他们没有明确的证据,我觉得还有缓和的余地,由我出面即可。” That is acted by you.” The honorable people agreed immediately, turns down a lost/carrying heavy burden very much happily. “那就由你出面。”真人立刻同意,很高兴推掉一负重担。 Another crisis from deliberation hall, is not quite temporarily obvious, but it destroys the surname. desolate king entrusted the itself to send Fan Yong da to solve Dragon King personally, finally was a disastrous defeat, the heir apparent is actually murdered, Kongtong Faction must take on the responsibility, the key must undertake many. desolate king bears patiently does not send, I guess must have the reason.” “另一层危机来自朝堂,暂时不太明显,可它才是毁灭姓的。萧王亲口委托本派范用大解决龙王,结果却是一场惨败,世子遇害,崆峒派是要担责任的,关键是要承担多少。萧王隐忍不发,我猜其中必有原因。” What reason?” Honorable people and other ** earnestly listens attentively equally. “什么原因?”真人跟其他**一样认真倾听。 Another honored person who in Imperial Palace is murdered, making us make the worst guess, what is murdered is emperor.” 皇宫中遇害的另一位贵人,让咱们做最坏的猜测吧,遇害的是皇帝本人。” Although similar news already spread, several ** holds breath cold air. 虽然类似的消息早已流传,几名**还是倒吸一口凉气。 We know, now under the emperor knee does not have the child, in the palace agrees did not reveal the truth, possibly for this reason, desolate king was the emperor is close, his status was quite sensitive in this time, therefore he was not willing to act rashly.” “咱们都知道,当今皇帝膝下无子,宫里不肯公布真相,可能就是为了这个原因,萧王是皇帝至亲,他的地位在这种时刻极为敏感,所以他也不愿轻举妄动。” Is started by the honorable person, Kongtong Faction various people also nod, thought that the doorkeeper is big ** this analyzes to be reasonable. 由真人开始,崆峒派诸人同时点头,都觉得监门大**这番分析有道理。 This crisis can only solve by the old deity.” Is working as this faction ** surface, the Zhou Yu clear resumed the former name to the master. “这层危机只能由老神仙解决了。”当着本派**的面,周羽清对师父恢复了从前的称呼。 Oh, several old friends, should see must see.” The honorable people do not decline but actually, he knows that oneself comes Capital City to make anything, first inquires in the palace with desolate king That side situation, can explain clearly best, if can find Fan Yong greatly with Chen Jinke, perhaps the matter can also be simpler.” “唉,几个老朋友,该见还是得见。”真人倒也不推辞,他知道自己来京城要做什么,“先打探一下宫里和萧王那边的情况,能解释清楚最好,要是能找到范用大和陈锦克,或许事情还能简单一些。” ** Nods in abundance, in Zhou Yu purifies the mind sighs one secretly, the old deity does not believe that Dragon King is a chief instigator, still thinks that explained, actually did this matter possibly explain clearly? Hands over Dragon King or thinks means certificate Kongtong Faction and Dragon King has not colluded, is solves the crisis to be most ideal the simplest means. **们纷纷点头,周羽清心里暗叹一声,老神仙还是不相信龙王是主谋,仍想“解释”,其实这种事情怎么可能解释清楚?交出龙王或者想办法证明崆峒派龙王没有勾结,才是解决危机最理想最简单的办法。 Thinks of here, he rejoices Huo Yun and Han Fen in Central Plains not well-known, if known the Dragon King two ambiguous female subordinates live at the Kongtong Faction foothold, moreover is the old deity colleague arrives at Capital City, will be a crisis. 想到这里,他庆幸霍允韩芬中原都不知名,若是被人知道龙王的两名暧昧女部下就住在崆峒派的落脚点,而且是与老神仙一路同行来到京城的,又将是一场危机。 The discussion nearly will end, Zhou Yu wants to suggest that incorruptibly the old deity lists the meeting list, quite lets ** delivers the famous post ahead of time, guards a gate ** unexpectedly first sends one, has an invitation that pastes simultaneously sends with. 商议将近结束,周羽清正想建议老神仙列出会见名单,好让**们提前去送名贴,守门**居然先送来一份,与名贴同时送来的还有一份请柬。 The name pastes with the invitation came from the Capital City most well-known chivalrous person Cheng Yi regulation nine masters, he is the organizer who that time sends under custody the motion, after the massacre occurred , actually successfully got rid of the suspicion. 名贴与请柬都来自京城最知名的豪侠程屹程九爷,他本是那次押送行动的组织者,惨案发生之后却成功摆脱怀疑。 The regulation nine masters are ** lake, when invited various school of characters to get together, unintentionally disclosed oneself were generation of Kongtong Faction ** Fan Yong da spoke, the idea was Fan Yong da, what he provided was only the face. 程九爷是**湖,早在邀请各派人物聚会的时候,就有意无意地透露自己是代崆峒派**范用大说话,主意都是范用大的,他提供的只是面子。 This move made him pass the crisis safely, after experiencing the initial suspicion, various factions rather believe that the regulation nine masters were used. 这一招让他安然度过危机,经历最初的怀疑之后,各派宁愿相信程九爷是被利用了。 The famous post is sends by the servant, regulation nine master have not arrived, in the invitation explained that said noontime leader congress, hopes that the Kongtong Faction leader wants to find time arrive in any event, the leaders anticipated extremely. 名贴是由仆人送来的,程九爷本人未到,请柬中说明曰午时有一场掌门大会,希望崆峒派掌门无论如何都要“拨冗亲临”,众掌门不胜期待。 This is the Hongmen banquet.” Zhou Yu said clear indignantly, a little admires Cheng Yi, unexpectedly such quick knows the old deity to arrive at the news of Capital, what leader congress, even/including Ju informs not to have beforehand, has anyone of you heard?” “这就是鸿门宴。”周羽清气愤地说,也有点佩服程屹,竟然如此之快就知晓老神仙到京的消息,“什么掌门大会,连句事先通知都没有,你们谁听说过吗?” Several young ** shakes the head, they bore the tremendous pressure for serveral days, receives interrogates and threat. 几名年轻**摇头,他们这些天来承受巨大压力,接到的都是质问与威胁。 Old deity, I will go to be able tomorrow they, does not need to be tired you.” “老神仙,明天我去会会他们,不用劳累您。” The honorable people nod slowly, first such decides.” 真人缓缓点头,“先这么定吧。” The discussion ended, the old deity evidently was really tired, consecutively ten days of whirling, the young people thought exhausted, let alone was the 80-year- old person? 商议结束,老神仙看样子是真累了,连续十来天的急行,年轻人都觉得疲惫,何况是80岁的老人?
