Capital City was not Jade City, the day just the dusk, on the street already the rare pedestrian, cherished the government official in western hall to be also glad to turn a blind eye, from beginning to end has not inquired about in the car(riage) to load anything. 京城不是璧玉城,天刚擦黑,街上已经罕见行人,怀西馆的官吏也乐得睁一只眼闭一只眼,从始至终没有过问车里装载着什么。 After the carriage leaves the post house, drives in the direction of Chengjiazhuang, after several li (0.5 km), turns the major road, is stationed before the roadside tea stall temporarily, is in charge greets to the tea stall owner warmly: Zheng, rests today early.” 马车离开驿馆之后朝程家庄的方向驶去,数里之后拐出官道,在路边茶棚前暂驻,管事热情地向茶棚主人打招呼:“郑老儿,今天歇得早啊。” The tea stall owner quit work, was planning that enters the room to rest, is accidental/surprised to this accidental/surprised intimate action, ehm the moment obsequiously said: Manager is laborious, some can old man here also good tea, come a pot sleek/moist mouth?” 茶棚主人已经收摊,正打算进屋休息,对这次意外的亲近举动非常意外,嗯啊片刻才点头哈腰地说:“主管辛苦,老汉这里还有些好茶,要不要来一壶润口?” Just thirsty, has several bowls of tea, at the end of the month a round calculates money to you.” “正口渴,来几碗茶,月底一发算钱给你。” Two people there idle talk, several other people have not been idling, spheres the carriage, searches deftly, the car(riage) bottom does not let off. 两人在那里闲话,其他几人也没闲着,围住马车,麻利地搜索一遍,连车底都不放过。 manor Ke did not feel relieved, Dragon King is the Killer(s) family background, crooked gate ramp quite a lot, we are more careful, search for again.” 一名庄客仍不放心,“龙王杀手出身,歪门斜道颇多,咱们小心些,再搜一遍。” Second still had achieved nothing, under several people of even/including horse belly has looked, this is relieved. 第二遍仍一无所获,几人连马肚子下面都看过了,这才算安下心来。 The stewards saw the matter already, cupped one hand in the other across the chest saying: Fellow chivalrous people, delivered to here below, please as one likes.” Said that does not drink tea, from return trip village. 管事见事情已了,拱手道:“各位侠士,在下就送到这里了,请自便。”说罢也不喝茶,自回程家庄。 The tea stall owner looks at the steward to depart dull, the chivalrous people are catching up with the carriage tone, rotates on the major road, Zheng is an honest and good-natured person, returns to the room hurriedly, ** then rests. 茶棚主人呆呆地看着管事离去,侠士们赶着马车调头,回转到官道上,郑老儿是个老实人,急忙回屋,**便睡。 Altogether is six people, a person drives a cart, five people protect the car(riage), the tense atmosphere vanishes gradually, at that time the moon/month bright star was thin, the silver white piece in the world, the path is clearly discernible, several people chat while walking, originally is various factions **. 共是六人,一人赶车,五人护车,紧张气氛渐渐消失,当时月朗星稀,照得天地间银白一片,道路清晰可见,几人边走边聊,原来都是各派**。 Two about, six people arrive at outside the city beyond several li (0.5 km) a small at the foot of the hill, three people from the roadside thick patch of grass walk to greet, guides in front, comes to small temple on a half hillside. 二更左右,六人来到城外十几里以外一座小山脚下,又有三人从路边草丛中走出来迎接,就在前面带路,来至半山坡上的一座小庙里。 This is one already abandoned Shanshen Temple, the temple inner point a small lamp, had dozens people. 这是一座已遭废弃的山神庙,庙内点着一盏小灯,已有数十人等在其中。 jade clear sends the left glow several steps to run out of Shanshen Temple, lifted the car(riage) curtain to look in four corpses, afterward to protecting several people of car(riage) cupped one hand in the other across the chest to express one's thanks, six Senior Brother weaponry volunteered are, spared no efforts to bring back the remains of four Junior Brothers, was deeply grateful below, jade clear sent high and low also inevitably to remember this benevolence.” 玉清派左芒几步冲出山神庙,掀开车帘看了一眼里面的四具尸体,随后向护车的几人拱手称谢,“六位师兄仗义勇为,不辞辛苦取回四名师弟的遗体,在下感激不尽,玉清派上下也必然记住这段恩情。” The entire duty not startled does not have danger, protected the car(riage) person still to fervently express views, no one will waste the opportunity of the jade clear Faction becoming friends with. 整趟任务无惊无险,护车人仍慷慨陈辞一番,谁也不会浪费与玉清派结交的机会。 The people meet in front of the temple, helter-skelter lifts the corpse to enter the temple, places them on the incense table, treats as the testimony of this meeting. 众人在庙前相见,七手八脚地抬着尸体进庙,将它们摆放在香案上,算是当作此次聚会的见证。 The Kongtong Faction Zhou Huai jade thought that the time was similar, bows to four corpses deeply executes a ritual, set out saying: Rests slightly, listens to my word.” 崆峒派周怀玉觉得时候差不多了,向四具尸体躬身深施一礼,起身说:“诸位稍歇,听我一言。” When Zhou Huai jade daytime has lost to Dragon King, but he dares to defy this school of leader's orders in the presence of everyone, during keeps slaughter dragon to meet, obtains the enormous appreciation and respect, the Luo Family swordsman is not, he unclearly becomes a leader, only misses an acknowledgment. 周怀玉白天时败给了龙王,但他敢于当众违抗本派掌门的命令,留在屠龙会当中,获得极大的赞赏与尊敬,骆家剑客不在,他隐然成为领袖,只差一句承认。 The people ban the sound, listening to him to speak. 众人禁声,听他说话。 Dragon King relies on an evil merit, coming Central Plains Jianghu to stir up trouble, kills secretly my martial arts world person of same belief, assassinates the imperial family ancestor and relative, confuses the deliberation hall, harasses various school of elders and superiors, facing such unpardonably wicked big demon, how I and other gentlemen of justice can stand by?” 龙王自恃一身邪功,来中原江湖兴风作浪,暗害我武林同道,刺杀皇室宗亲,迷惑朝堂,扰乱各派尊长,面对此等十恶不赦的大魔头,我等正义之士岂可袖手旁观?” Although tonight's meeting specific goal, but is not everybody idea is consistent, Qingcheng sent most to hate Dragon King, Deng spring/lust to say that a truth, Dragon King was not the evil merit, he used may be the Luo Family village and Kongtong Faction palm law.” 虽说今晚的聚会目的明确,但是并非人人想法一致,青城派最恨龙王,邓春还是要说一句实话,“龙王算不上邪功吧,他用的可都是骆家庄和崆峒派的掌法。” The Zhou Huai jade is just about to speak of this, Dragon King has indeed put forth Central Plains martial arts, I was also deceived at that time, afterward thinks, clear Dragon King sinister deceitful.” 周怀玉正要说到这,“龙王的确使出了中原武功,当时我也被骗过去了,事后一想,才明白龙王的阴险狡诈。” How did this words say?” “此话怎讲?” Dragon King this grows perceptibly in the knife skill, why abandons the blade not to use, can compared with the palm law? Hasn't been afraid the knife skill to reveal the technique of homicide person? He wants to conceal itself and relation of Western Region Killer(s), the nature not being at all numerous uses the blade, moreover his three sets of palm law is specious, actually at all is not true Central Plains martial arts.” 龙王本以刀法见长,为何弃刀不用,非要比掌法?还不是害怕刀法会显露他杀人的手法?他想掩饰自己与西域杀手的联系,自然不敢当众用刀,况且他那三套掌法似是而非,其实根本不是真正的中原武功。” The people nod, the person who forgot to choose the competition palm law at that time is not Dragon King. 众人点头,都忘了当时选择比试掌法的人并非龙王 Was needless saying that Dragon King slaughtered innocents, has jade clear to send the remains of four Junior Brothers to suspend here, he was the public enemy of Central Plains Jianghu chivalrous person, we only said how to cope with him.” left glow somewhat believes Dragon King was framed, but after returning to slaughter dragon to meet, his idea slowly changed, for the hesitation before covering up, he is instead firmer than other people. “不用多说,龙王滥杀无辜,现有玉清派四位师弟的遗体摆在这里,他是中原江湖义士的公敌,咱们只说怎么对付他吧。”左芒原本有几分相信龙王是被陷害的,可是回到屠龙会之后,他的想法慢慢又变了,为了遮掩之前的犹豫,他反而比其他人更坚定。 Is this truth.” The Zhou Huai jade continued promptly, Dragon King has deceived the government authorities, various school of leaders are well aware, is only not good direct over, can only put together by us, so long as removes Dragon King and his Western Region Killer(s), dismisses in refusing stubbornly.” “就是这个道理。”周怀玉及时接过话头,“龙王骗过了官府,各派掌门心知肚明,只是不好直接出头,就只能由咱们这些人拼一拼了,只要除掉龙王和他的西域杀手,在死不辞。” The people make noise to echo, the person asked the issue: We contended in martial arts lost, cannot look for Dragon King to be troublesome according to the custom again, how did this solve?” 众人出声附和,却有一人提出问题:“咱们比武已经输了,按规矩不能再找龙王麻烦,这怎么解?” The Zhou Huai jade sneers, Dragon King, copes with Central Plains Jianghu with Western Region that set of shameless method sinisterly, did we sit waiting for death and are at a loss? Simply replies in kind.” 周怀玉冷笑一声,“龙王阴险至极,用西域那一套无耻手段对付中原江湖,难道咱们就坐以待毙、束手无策了?干脆以其人之道还治其人之身。” The Zhou Huai jade kept guessing, shut up intentionally did not say, the people urged repeatedly, he said: Three martial arts contests, the one who loses to Dragon King is slaughter dragon meeting, wanted me saying that slaughter dragon might as well dismiss in light of this, we made a fresh start.” 周怀玉卖了个关子,故意闭嘴不说,众人连声催促,他才道:“三场比武,输给龙王的是屠龙会,要我说,屠龙会不如就此解散,咱们另起炉灶。” This idea obtains everybody to approve of immediately, then, the focal point of discussion transfers the new fire pivot to call anything, which in gets together, whom to work as in a president kind of issue, the Zhou Huai jade brings to light the spirit, the control topic trend, must earn people's support firmly shortly, Deng spring/lust who Qingcheng sends comes out to feel disappointed. 这个主意立刻得到大家赞同,接下来,议论的焦点转为新炉灶该叫什么、在哪聚会、谁当主持者一类的问题上,周怀玉抖搂精神,牢牢控制话题走向,眼看着就要获得众人的支持,青城派的邓春偏偏又出来扫兴。 Was a pity, the Luo Qi dark green severe wound, Luo Family nobody dares to come again, a group of people without a leader, Dragon King martial arts so is also fierce, even if slaughter dragon will change name, not necessarily is his match.” “可惜,骆启苍重伤,骆家再没人敢来了,群龙无首,龙王武功又那么厉害,就算屠龙会改名,也未必是他的对手吧。” Everybody still remembers the daytime three martial arts contests, some people of silence, some people are not convinced, quarrelled. 大家都还记得白天的三场比武,有人沉默,也有人不服气,你一言我一语地争吵起来。 That the Zhou Huai jade most is not convinced, said loudly: Dragon King martial arts is merely mediocre, he is good at sneak attacking to plot, even if in compared with martial stage on, likes with the trick, is just like Senior Brother Deng, observes the Jianghu custom honestly, modestly declined dozens moves to be willing to leave full power, was used by Dragon King. If Senior Brother Deng begins uses unique skill, where can make Dragon King insist finally? I and Senior Brother Luo was also deceived by the Dragon King strange move of institute, will be regretfully lost, his martial arts is actually not strong.” 周怀玉是最不服气的一个,大声道:“龙王武功不过尔尔,他擅长偷袭暗算,即使在比武场上,也喜欢用奇招,好比邓师兄,老老实实遵守江湖规矩,谦让了几十招才肯出全力,被龙王利用。若是邓师兄开场就使出绝招,哪能让龙王坚持到最后?我与骆师兄也都是被龙王怪招所骗,才会惜败,他的武功其实没有那么强。” These people are various school of younger generation ** middle outstanding person, the happy victory was unhappy to defeat, listening to a Zhou Huai jade such saying, the confidence to surge upward, many people mused, the big school not necessarily had the expert, Deng , Zhou and Luo loses to Dragon King, perhaps was the scholarship not fine, traded to be me, finally was perhaps different. 这些人都是各派年轻一代**当中的佼佼者,喜胜不喜败,听周怀玉这么一说,信心又都高涨起来,许多人暗想,大门派未必就出高手,邓、周、骆三人败于龙王,没准是学艺不精,换做我,结果或许就不一样。 In Shanshen Temple seethes with excitement, Deng spring/lust did not speak to feel disappointed, instead had plenty of fight in one volunteers, must come a secondary dead duel with Dragon King again. 山神庙内沸腾起来,邓春也不出言扫兴了,反而斗志昂扬地自告奋勇,要与龙王再来一次生死决斗。 Feeling disappointed has other people. 扫兴的另有他人。 Hehe, Dragon King is useless including the blade, hits the falling in the water running water various school of experts, do you also want to ask him to revenge? slaughter dragon must change name in any case, might as well call Bairon the meeting.” “嘿嘿,龙王连刀都没用,就把各派高手打得落水流水,你们还想找他报仇?屠龙会反正要改名,不如就叫拜龙会吧。” Which Senior Brother so extinguishes oneself power and prestige? Please stand the speech.” The Zhou Huai jade hears the sound in crowd, therefore on the mouth is also maintaining several points of politeness. “哪位师兄如此灭自家威风?请站出来说话。”周怀玉听声音是在人群中,因此嘴上还保持着几分客气。 I am not a Senior Brother, I am your founder grandfathers.” “我不是师兄,我是你们的祖师爷爷。” Facing the so obvious insult and provocation, the people have exploded all of a sudden, berated, many people put out a hand to touch the pointed weapons. 面对如此明显的侮辱与挑衅,众人一下子炸了,纷纷喝斥,许多人伸手去摸兵刃。 The Zhou Huai jade understands finally provocation is not a person on one's own side, transports the internal strength to make the sound, has pressed noisy in temple, where the sorcerer, has the skill to speak face to face, what hero stealthy is?” 周怀玉终于明白挑衅者不是自己人,运内功发出声音,压过庙中的嘈杂,“何方妖人,有本事当面说话,鬼鬼祟祟算什么英雄?” That sound smiles several strangely, this outside temple, you, since knows Dragon King to resort to all means that but must ask where the master does come from?” 那个声音怪笑数声,这回又在庙外了,“你们既然知道龙王不择手段,还要问老爷来自何方?” Dragon King?” 龙王?” „It is not right, this is not the Dragon King sound.” “不对,这不是龙王的声音。” In the crowd has several people good with Zhou Huai jade personal friendship, obtains his suggestion, disperses, in the temple outside the temple searches. 人群中有几人与周怀玉私交不错,得到他的暗示,分散开来,庙内庙外搜寻。 The Zhou Huai jade sneers saying: Originally is the Dragon King hand/subordinate running dog, coming this to bark wildly, can contribute to a great merit before the lord?” 周怀玉冷笑道:“原来是龙王手下走狗,来此狂吠,能在主子面前立一大功吗?” That sound quiet a meeting, again when opens the mouth appears gloomy, ignorant young child, you knows that the master is only the speech teases you to play? The prestigious family honest old fools teach one group of young fools, today master must give you......” 那个声音沉寂了一会,再开口时显得阴森森的,“无知小儿,你怎么知道老爷光是说话逗你们玩?名门正派的老傻瓜教出一群小傻瓜,今天老爷要给你们……” The voice has not fallen, only hears also the sound to shout to clear the way: Gets down!” 话音未落,只听又有一个声音喝道:“下来!” Deng spring/lust goes out of Shanshen Temple quietly, first discovers the enemy trace, began, in the temple the people shouted to draw to run, the Zhou Huai jade late one step, loudly said: Grasps lives.” 邓春悄悄走出山神庙,第一个发现敌人踪影,已经动手,庙里众人呼拉全跑出去,周怀玉晚了一步,大声道:“抓活的。” That person hides on a tree outside temple, the whereabouts exposition the flying step jumps to leap up to the mountain immediately, the foot does not moisten, seems a spirit fox in moonlit night. 那人躲在庙外的一棵树上,行踪暴露立刻飞步向山下跳蹿,脚不沾地,好似月夜中的一只灵狐。 Various factions ** does not have the untalented person, Deng spring/lust daytime to lose to Dragon King, in the heart early feels suffocated, after following close on that person, only misses 78 distances. 各派**也没有庸手,邓春白天败于龙王,心中早憋着一口气,紧跟那人身后,只差78步距离。 Will pursues more than hundred steps, 45 people rush to the front to outflank, that person has no way out, turns round to meet Deng spring/lust. 堪堪追出百余步,又有45人跑到前方包抄,那人无路可走,回身迎战邓春。 Deng spring/lust accepts the lesson, the first move is not forgiving, two people fist palm intersection, has fought three moves personal, other people have encircled, sees Deng spring/lust not to drop the wind, has not gone forward to help. 邓春接受教训,第一招即不留情,两人拳掌相交,贴身斗了三招,其他人已经围上来,见邓春不落下风,也就没有上前帮忙。 Also has fought two moves, that person sees is in itself not a match, unexpectedly puts forth unexpected strange to draw on: The opens the mouth spouts blood rain, transferred same place. 又斗了两招,那人见自己不是对手,居然使出令人意想不到的怪招来:张口喷出一片血雨,原地转了一圈。 The blood rain stench, the people were startled, gives way to traffic flurriedly, that person is catching the opportunity, leaps up to the woods in roadside, Deng spring/lust hits emerges, does not attend to dangerously, pursued to carry on the back to pat a palm in the enemy. 血雨腥臭,众人吃了一惊,慌乱避让,那人逮着机会,向路边的树林中蹿去,邓春打得兴起,不顾险恶,追上去在敌人背上拍了一掌。 That person called out pitifully, speed was instead faster, suddenly vanished in the jungle. 那人惨叫一声,速度反而更快,眨眼消失在丛林之中。 A hard-pressed enemy should not be pursued too far.” The Zhou Huai jade pursues, is careful the ambush.” “穷寇莫追。”周怀玉追上来,“当心埋伏。” Deng spring/lust and the others halted. 邓春等人止步。 „The Western Region person really depends on the evil move and toxicant to base, Dragon King daytime installs very to look like, hand/subordinate worried to reveal the secret.” 西域人果然还是靠邪招、毒药立足,龙王白天装得挺像,手下一着急可就露馅了。” Who said is not, Senior Brother Deng this palm suffices him to receive, I looked at him exactly tonight.” “谁说不是,邓师兄这一掌够他受的,我瞧他活不过今晚了。” Deng spring/lust was flattered, under heart self-satisfied, the mouth said: Where where.” 邓春受到奉承,心下得意,嘴里却说:“哪里哪里。” The people crowd around Deng spring/lust to return to Shanshen Temple, jade clear send left glow to see the blood rain that person has spouted from afar, in the heart have doubts, stay in behind, observes the ground bloodstain, then overtakes the people, holds on a Songshan Faction **, asked low voice: You did not think that person of style is a little strange?” 众人簇拥着邓春重返山神庙,玉清派左芒远远望见了那人喷出的血雨,心中疑惑,留在后面,观察地上血迹,然后追上众人,拉住一名嵩山派**,小声问:“你不觉得那人的招式有点怪?” Western Region martial arts is very strange.” 西域武功都挺怪。” „, I did not mean that he ** self-help, I listen to the person to mention this move probably.” “不不,我是说他**自救,我好像听人说起过这一招。” Well, your saying, I thought that when the Ten Ways Religion believer went to war loved with this move, can frighten many people, but bumped into the bow and arrow......” “咦,你这么一说,我想起来了,十方教的教徒打仗时爱用这一招,能吓到不少人,可是碰到弓箭……” The front person has gotten to temple entrance, in left Mangxin startled, Senior Brother, that person is not the Dragon King subordinate, is the Ten Ways Religion sorcerer.” 前边的人已经走到庙门口,左芒心中惊慌,“诸位师兄,那人不是龙王手下,是十方教的妖人。” Zhou Huai jade hears Yanleng, said loudly: Dragon King colludes with Ten Ways Religion in secret, is really the jackals from the same lair, heh, early should think that Dragon King dares to come Central Plains, must have the evil faction to be the planted agent.” 周怀玉闻言愣了一下,大声道:“龙王暗中与十方教勾结,果然是一丘之貉,嘿,早该想到的,龙王敢来中原,必有邪派做内应。” The people even more are filled with righteous indignation, cursed angrily, while entered Shanshen Temple. 众人越发义愤填膺,一边怒骂,一边走进山神庙。 left glow thinks does not suit, asked that Songshan Faction **, what evil move does Ten Ways Religion have?” 左芒还是觉得不对劲儿,问嵩山派**,“十方教还有什么邪招?” ** Has thought a meeting, the complexion sudden change, called out: Do not enter the temple, poisonous!” **想了一会,脸色骤变,叫道:“不要进庙,有毒!” In the temple yellow light twinkle, turned into the green suddenly.( To be continued.) 庙中黄光闪烁,突然变成了绿色。(未完待续。)
