Pine cypress, pavilions! 青松翠柏,亭台楼阁！ In a desolate isolated hill, is secret a quiet dwelling. Divine Predictor Leng Wuchang, calmly sits under a backyard graceful pavilion, the wine-tasting looks at the scenery, is very comfortable. 一座苍凉的孤山之中,隐秘着一座静谧的宅院。神算子冷无常,静静地坐在后院的一处优雅的凉亭下,品酒观景,好不自在。 ! 咻！ Suddenly, the sound, a shadow appears in his front air-splitting suddenly, fixes the eyes on to look, actually Zhuo Fan without doubt. 突然,破空声响,一道黑影陡然出现在他的面前,定睛看去,却正是卓凡无疑。 Sees this old opponent, the old friend, Zhuo Fan laughs, holds cups the fist and says: „Ha haha...... was sorry, sorry, was chased down by Gu Santong, now just now throws off, comes late, but also looks to be broad-minded.” 见到这位老对手,老朋友,卓凡不由大笑一声,抱抱拳道:“哈哈哈……抱歉,抱歉,一路被古三通追杀,现在才刚甩掉,来晚了,还望海涵。” „Hehe...... Gu Santong, although only then a brute force, but wants to escape from his hand, is not that easy matter. Entire Universe, it is estimated that also only then Butler Zhuo can achieve, admire!” Leng Wuchang also holds the fist in the other hand, thinks highly to say. “呵呵呵……古三通虽然只有一身蛮力,但是想从他手里逃脱,也不是那么容易的事啊。整个天宇,估计也只有卓管家能够做到了,佩服佩服！”冷无常同样一抱拳,恭维道。 Zhuo Fan nods with a smile, then looks to all around, the scenery flower-and-bird, a face sighed: „Emperor Sect is Emperor Sect, unexpectedly in away the imperial capital is about in the isolated hill of ten li (0.5 km) place, but also is hiding such a graceful other institute, does not know for the bystander, is really rare!” 卓凡笑着点头,转而看向四周,山水花鸟,一脸感叹:“帝王门就是帝王门,居然在距帝都不过十里地的孤山中,还藏着这么一处优雅的别院,为外人所不知,真是难得啊！” „This is natural, the imperial capital good and bad people mixed up, all sorts of people all gather in this, is the information most circulates the place. My Emperor Sect has an emotional tie with the world, naturally must construct an unknown secret intelligence to stand here. Moreover, Butler Zhuo can feel relieved, the scout of this foothold imperial family, does not know even, we may speak freely greatly safely!” “这是当然,帝都鱼龙混杂,三教九流皆聚于此,乃是情报最为流通之地。我帝王门心系天下,自然要在这里建个不为人知的秘密情报站了。而且,卓管家可以放心,这个据点就算是皇室的探子,也不会知道,我们大可安心畅谈！” Zhuo Fan understands clearly the nod, then directly soars the subject, cups the fist and says: „Mr. Leng, this time many thanks you lend a hand in emergency, should to succeed in obtaining our Luo Family people, doesn't know them now where?” 卓凡了然点头,接着直奔主题,抱拳道:“冷先生,这次多谢你拔刀相助,应该把我们洛家的人都要到手了吧,不知他们现在何处？” At this point, Zhuo Fan feigns to all around observes, but also puzzled say/way: „Well, how to have seen them to come out?” 说到这里,卓凡佯装向四周察看,还一脸疑惑道:“咦,怎么还没见他们出来？” In the eye the fine glow flashes, Leng Wuchang actually smiles one, shakes the head: „Butler Zhuo, you found the old man initially, making the old man help, after you have an accident, does everything possible to arrive in the Luo Family hostage Emperor Sect completely, the old man all achieved. As the matter stands, you should not work as the enemy me.” 眼中精芒一闪,冷无常却是哂笑一声,摇了摇头:“卓管家,当初你找到老夫,让老夫帮忙,在你出事后,想方设法将洛家人质全部要到帝王门手里,老夫可是全都做到了。这样一来,您该不会把我当敌人了吧。” „This is natural!” “这是当然！” Understands clearly nods, a Zhuo Fan face said firmly: „At that time I said that so long as you help me make this matter, was equal to my ship!” 了然点点头,卓凡一脸坚定道:“当时我就说了,只要你帮我做成这一件事,就等于上了我的船！” „But, under a few words, not?” “可是,还有下一句话,不是吗？” In the eye none flashes, the Leng Wuchang chuckle makes noise: „Leng only helps you do this matter, then, Leng or Emperor Sect chief butler, all take the Emperor Sect benefit as the standard. Therefore even Butler Zhuo does not work as the enemy Leng, Leng still has to also regard as the biggest opponent Butler Zhuo at this time!” 眼中精光一闪,冷无常轻笑出声:“冷某只帮你做这一件事,接下来,冷某还是帝王门的大管家,一切以帝王门的利益为准。所以即便卓管家不把冷某当敌人,冷某此时也不得不还把卓管家看做最大的对手！” The brow selects unconsciously, Zhuo Fan deeply looked at his one eyes, is laughing in spite of trying not to nod: „Right, that is true. Then, Mr. Leng must be the same to the imperial family, does to coerce by the Luo Family hostage, copes me?” 眉头不觉一挑,卓凡深深地看了他一眼,失笑着点点头:“没错,的确如此。那么,冷先生是要跟皇室一样,以洛家人质做要挟,来对付我吗？” „How to dare? When the Butler Zhuo temperament, the old man is not does not know, hundred school of thought contends has asked for advice. By our present strengths, angers a Butler Zhuo such peerless expert, absolutely is the non- wisdom. If so, how to fail the imperial family wish, mutually wounded, does the bridal clothes for others? Leng, so stupid?” “怎么敢？卓管家的脾气,老夫又不是不知道,百家争鸣时就早已领教过了。以我们现在的实力,惹怒卓管家这么一位绝世高手,绝对是不智的。若真的如此,岂不遂了皇室心愿,两败俱伤,为他人做嫁衣吗？冷某,会有如此愚蠢吗？” „Your meaning is......” eye narrows the eyes slightly, Zhuo Fan coldly said. “那你的意思是……”眼睛微微一眯,卓凡冷冷道。 „Transaction!” “交易！” Leng Wuchang is categorical, is serious: „Butler Zhuo made Leng probably arrive in the Luo Family hostage the hand initially, thought from the Emperor Sect important person, the life-saving from imperial family is much more relaxed. But actual situation, indeed so. Such hot potato in the hand, how we indeed does not dare them, but must such as make offerings to ancestors same is supplying, handed over on Butler Zhuo on safely. However, so easily gave Butler Zhuo, we strove in vain, that also owed. Therefore, but also asked Butler Zhuo to put out a thing to exchange!” 冷无常斩钉截铁,一脸严肃:“卓管家当初让冷某将洛家人质要到手里,想必是觉得从帝王门要人,比从皇室手里救人轻松得多。而实际情况,也的确如此。这么个烫手山芋拿在手里,我们的确不敢把他们怎么样,还得如供祖宗一样供着,就等安全交到卓管家手上了。不过,就如此轻易地给了卓管家,我们是不是白白出力了,那也太亏了吧。所以,还请卓管家拿出一物来交换！” The brow selects, Zhuo Fan is perplexed, the doubts looked on oneself, stood to transfer, said lightly: „Any thing, oneself select, even the moral integrity, sentiment and chastity are still casual you to take away!” 眉头一挑,卓凡不明所以,疑惑地看了看自己身上,站起来转了一圈,淡淡道:“什么东西,自己挑吧,就算是节操、情操、贞操也随便你拿走！” „These three types of things, do you have?” Helpless shows the whites of the eyes, Leng Wuchang smiles impartially. “这三样东西,你有吗？”无奈翻翻白眼儿,冷无常不置可否地笑笑。 The eye pupil concentrates unconsciously, the Zhuo Fan brow stands, reprimands: „Who said does not have, at least chastity, old fraction for ten years, but also has been retaining!” 眼瞳不觉一凝,卓凡眉头一立,斥道:“谁说没有的,至少贞操,老子数十年如一日,还一直保留着！” Laughs in spite of trying not, Leng Wuchang suddenly the facial expression one austere, said earnestly: „Butler Zhuo, please do not crack a joke. We want your thing, so long as you hand over, Luo Family everyone, we hand over in your hand safely, did not make an indiscreet remark. If you are not willing, sorry, we do not have idea with you, you must save others, where also does not know them. We have been consuming, waits for the imperial family victory report to transmit, had it all by them together, finally at the worst perished together!” 不由失笑一声,冷无常蓦然神情一肃,认真道:“卓管家,请你不要开玩笑。我们就要你一件东西,只要你交出来,洛家所有人,我们安安全全交到你手上,绝不失言。若是你不肯的话,抱歉,我们拿你也没辙,你要救人,也不知他们在哪里。我们就这么一直耗着,等皇室捷报传来,一起被他们一锅端吧,最后大不了同归于尽了！” „This thing is so important, is what, do I have?” Facial color unconsciously one austere, the Zhuo Fan brow deeply wrinkled, under heart imposing. “这件东西这么重要,是什么啊,我有吗？”面色不觉一肃,卓凡眉头深深地皱了起来,心下凛然。 He looked that Leng Wuchang said does not counterfeit, this thing is very as if important to them, rather fight in which both sides perish must obtain. Is being, the non- adult then becomes the ghost! 他看冷无常所说不似作假,这件东西似乎真的对他们很重要,以致于宁可鱼死网破也要得到。正可谓是,不成人便成鬼！ He really cannot think, what thing he has, can have such important function? 只是他实在想不到,他有什么东西,能有如此重要的作用？ Deeply inspires, Leng Wuchang closely is staring at him, said one word at a time: „Bodhi Fibrous Root!” 深深地吸了口气,冷无常紧紧地盯着他,一字一顿道:“菩提须根！” „What?” Zhuo Fan stares, calls out in alarm makes noise. “什么？”卓凡一愣,惊叫出声。 Leng Wuchang saw, rushes saying: „Butler Zhuo should not does not remember, eight years ago when makes a big row Rain of Flowers Building, snatched their eighth grade efficacious medicine while convenient, Bodhi Fibrous Root. Please give the old man this thing, the old man releases people immediately!” 冷无常见了,赶忙道:“卓管家应该不会不记得吧,八年前大闹花雨楼时,顺便抢了她们的八品灵药,菩提须根。请你把这件东西交给老夫,老夫马上放人！” „But...... this thing is not on me. Or, I take other eighth grade efficacious medicines to you!” Zhuo Fan blinks, the probe said. “可是……这东西不在我身上。要不,我拿其他八品灵药给你吧！”卓凡眨了眨眼,试探道。 Shakes the head ruthlessly, the Leng Wuchang color of face resolution: „No, we want Bodhi Fibrous Root, other ninth grade tenth grade efficacious medicine, we are not even rare!” 狠狠摇了摇头,冷无常一脸坚定之色:“不,我们就要菩提须根,其他就算是九品十品灵药,我们也不稀罕！” Looks at the color of his resolution, Zhuo Fan was so shocked, the complexion is strange, doubts saying: „This Bodhi Fibrous Root, is so important? I compensate your several eighth grade efficacious medicines, isn't good?” 看着他那如此坚定之色,卓凡不由愣住了,面色诡异,疑道:“这菩提须根,有这么重要吗？我多赔你几件八品灵药,还不行？” „, Naturally is not good!” “不不不,当然不行！” Deep sigh tone, Leng Wuchang, helpless said: „Since now has arrived at the major aristocratic families to contend the time finally, the old man was also open about the facts Butler Zhuo you. Knows why we have stared at Rain of Flowers Building not to put? It is not because they are one group of women manage a household, the strength is weakest , because in their hands, grasps rare treasure that all previous generations are handing down, Bodhi Fibrous Root, this is the thing that we win. Otherwise, our Emperor Sect must develop the influence, may first start from other aristocratic families greatly, why solely to be staring at that group of women, bears an infamy that bullies the woman, making the world person scoff?” 长叹口气,冷无常无奈道:“如今既然已经到了各大世家最后角逐时刻,老夫也就不瞒卓管家您了。知道为何我们一直盯着花雨楼不放吗？不是因为她们是一群女人当家,实力最弱,就是因为她们手里,掌握着历代相传的秘宝,菩提须根,这是我们志在必得的东西。否则的话,我们帝王门要拓展势力,大可先从其他世家入手,何必单单盯着那群娘们,背上一个欺负女人的污名,令天下人耻笑？” Deeply looked at his one eyes, Zhuo Fan saw him not to lie, understands clearly the nod, but actually also smiled bitterly again and again: „Mr. Leng, I also told the facts with you. You want other things to be indifferent, but this Bodhi Fibrous Root, but also really not in my hand. Initially I robbed that gadget, was a camouflage, directed the line of sight of Emperor Sect for Rain of Flowers Building, actually that thing already, how otherwise we may become the union, do you with snatching the person of your thing form an alliance?” 深深地看了他一眼,卓凡见他不似说谎,了然点头,但却也苦笑连连:“冷先生,我也跟您实话实说吧。您要其他东西无所谓,但这菩提须根,还真不在我手上。当初我抢走那玩意儿,就是一个障眼法,替花雨楼引走帝王门的视线,其实那东西早已还回去了,不然我们怎么可能会结为同盟,你会跟抢你东西的人结盟吗？” Is startled, Leng Wuchang caresses the beard lightly, the slight nod, about the eyeball transferred the revolutions, sighed: „Really, actually the old man also has so guessed correctly, but obtains Butler Zhuo to confirm today, confirmed this guess. However even so, the old man must beg this thing to Butler Zhuo!” 不由一怔,冷无常轻抚胡须,微微点头,眼珠左右转了转,叹道:“果然如此,其实老夫也早已猜到了,不过今日得到卓管家确认,也算是证实了这个猜测。不过即便如此,老夫还得向卓管家讨要这一物件！” „Why to beg to father, do you look for Rain of Flowers Building to go?” The eye pupil stares, Zhuo Fan is perplexed. “干嘛向老子讨要,你找花雨楼去啊？”眼瞳一瞪,卓凡不明所以。 Laughs at shaking the head, Leng Wuchang was sighing: „We stared at Rain of Flowers Building so many years , they do not regard that Bodhi Fibrous Root, is more important than their lives, even if we take entire Rain of Flowers Building, it is estimated that could not find. But Butler Zhuo you are different, you and they are the allies, words that you go to......” 嗤笑着摇摇头,冷无常叹道:“我们盯了花雨楼这么多年,都没要到,她们看待那菩提须根,比她们的命都重要,就算我们把整个花雨楼拿下,估计都找不到。但卓管家你不一样,你和她们是盟友,你去的话……” „Are you make me deceive?” The eye narrows the eyes, Zhuo Fan cold snort/hum makes noise: „You also said that they are our allies, the father must do the words of this matter, Luo Family then meets the prestige to lose immediately greatly, was abandoned by their three, is isolated, was besieged by you. Mr. Leng, is really the good idea of killing two birds with one stone!” “你是让我去骗出来？”眼睛一眯,卓凡冷哼出声:“你也说了她们是我们的盟友,老子要干出这种事的话,洛家马上便会信誉大失,被他们三家抛弃,陷入孤立,被你们围攻。冷先生,真是一石二鸟的好计啊！” „Hehe...... the old man has not thought so many, but wants Bodhi Fibrous Root purely.” Caressed beard lightly, Leng Wuchang is contented: „The condition has opened in any case, is willing to do is your matter. The person in our hands, when you changes players after all, as you like. This always saves others from imperial family compared with you, is much more relaxed!” “呵呵呵……老夫没想那么多,只是单纯地想要得到菩提须根而已。”轻抚了一下胡须,冷无常怡然自得:“反正条件已经开出来了,愿不愿意去做是你的事。总归人在我们手里,你什么时候来换人,都随你了。这总比你从皇室手里救人,要轻松得多吧！” „Ok, you considered again well, Leng first said goodbye. When you attain the thing, looks for Leng again.” Leng Wuchang wielded the sleeves, sprinkles however leaves. “好了,您再好好思量一下,冷某先告辞了。等你拿到东西,再来找冷某吧。”冷无常挥了挥衣袖,洒然离开。 Zhuo Fan is the double fist grips tightly, the eye narrows the eyes, turned around, vanished the person's shadow. 卓凡则是双拳紧握,眼睛微眯,一转身,消失了人影。 Here, becomes this solitary one coldly is lonesome and quiet...... 这里,再次变得孤冷幽静起来…… ! 唰！ Inside and outside one in the jungle away that dwelling, the Zhuo Fan form appears suddenly, there, Gu Santong is bored to death sits on a branch, sees Zhuo Fan to come back, is happy: „Father, you came back. Well, did not say that belt/bring these fellows come back, how you yourself?” 距那宅院一里外的密林中,卓凡的身影陡然出现,那里,古三通正百无聊赖地坐在一棵树枝头上,见到卓凡回来,不由喜道:“老爹,你回来了。咦,不是说带那些家伙回来吗,怎么就你自己？” „A paternal grandmother bear, this old fox, opens the condition to release people to the father!” “奶奶个熊,这个老狐狸,给老子开条件才放人！” Scolded one bitterly, Zhuo Fan looked that said to Gu Santong: „Right Little San, young lady these person of you should know, your nose is not very spirit, looks that this area does have their smells?” 恨恨地骂了一声,卓凡又看向古三通道:“对了小三子,大小姐那些人你应该都认识,你的鼻子不是很灵吗,看一看这一带有没有他们的气味？” A Gu Santong nod, the exquisite fine jade nose shakes slightly, then inspires fiercely, closes eyes to calm the mind to feel the distinction of each aura. 古三通一点头,小巧的琼鼻微微一抖,便猛地吸了一口气,闭目静心感受着每一道气息的分别。 However finally, Gu Santong helpless shakes the head saying: „Father, in the surrounding area thousand li (500 km) does not have their trails!” 但是最后,古三通还是无奈摇摇头道:“老爹,方圆千里内都没有他们的踪迹！” „This old thing may be really discrete enough, feared that the father found them, unexpectedly does not bring to arrive at the nearby the hostages, from the start has not thought gives the father the hostage face to face!” “这老东西可真够谨慎的,怕老子找到他们,居然连人质都不带到附近,压根就没想过当面将人质交给老子！” Zhuo Fan cursed angrily one panting in indignation, under the heart the secret consideration. 卓凡气呼呼地怒骂一声,心下暗暗思量。 Long time, puts out foul air long, in the eye none flashes, sets firm resolve: „Good, father this goes to Rain of Flowers Building, brings that thing. However this tent/account, father remembered, snort/hum!” 良久,才长吐出一口浊气,眼中精光一闪,下定了决心:“好,老子这就去花雨楼,把那东西拿过来。不过这笔帐,老子记下了,哼！” The anger snort/hum, the Zhuo Fan under foot treads, flies high to fly. Gu Santong saw, changes to together the red light, sharply sharply follows! 怒哼一声,卓凡脚下一踏,凌空飞起。古三通见了,也化作一道红光,急急跟上！ Hence, two big monsters fly to the Rain of Flowers Building direction rapidly. Is rushing to their treasure, Bodhi Fibrous Root goes. 至此,两大怪物向花雨楼方向急速飞行。正奔他们的宝贝,菩提须根而去。 Rain of Flowers Building, one group of young females, had difficultly...... 花雨楼,一帮妙龄女子,有难了……
