Inside and outside this time Xiayong City, it may be said that is blustery. 此时的下庸城内外,可谓是风起云涌。 district seat guard soldier has all mobilized, in the meantime, stationed in nearby Chu Army great camp, sets out 5000 soldiers and horses to approach to here instantly ; 县城守卒已然全部动员起来,同时,驻扎在附近的一座楚军大营,即刻出动了五千兵马向这里靠近; Moreover, the Qu Clan private soldier is also „Azure Luan Army”, two teams of soldiers and horses are leaving to here. 另外,屈氏私兵也就是“青鸾军”,也有两队兵马正在向这里开赴。 Under Jade Plate City, Earl Zheng transmitted orders for Tian Wujing, slaughters 40,000 Azure Luan Army elites at one fell swoop, Great Chu Pillar of State Qu Tiannan also body dead Gazing River riverbank, but camel of skinny is big, the Qu Clan no doubt vitality damages severely, but surplus Azure Luan Army added on to supplement in recent years when the recruit, in the battle efficiency definitely compared most flourishing was very different, but also enough used in State of Chu. 玉盘城下,郑伯爷替田无镜传令,一举屠戮四万青鸾军精锐,大楚柱国屈天南也身死望江江畔,但瘦死的骆驼比马大,屈氏固然元气大伤,但剩余的青鸾军加上近年补充进来的新兵,战斗力上肯定比全盛时相去甚远,但在楚国境内也是足够用了。 Moreover, other nearby similar Fan Family Qu Clan servant families, received the order from Qu Clan, various sent out the private soldier to close up to Xiayong City. 另外,附近其他类似范家的屈氏奴仆家族,也都收到了来自屈氏的命令,各家都派出了私兵向下庸城靠拢。 Xiayong City, is attracting several tens of thousands soldiers and horses to depend at this time neat, from wells up to whip just like the ocean waves in all directions to the only reef. 一个下庸城,此时正在吸引着数万兵马靠齐,宛若海浪从四面八方涌来拍打向唯一的礁石。 Mi Family, is not the State of Chu traditional aristocrat, but the Mi Family two generations the State of Chu Son of Heaven officials close to the throne, two generations of Mi Family Family Head are previous sovereign as well as this generation of Imperial Prince studies to grow up one after another together, present age Mi Family Family Head also accepted fate by Prince Regent is State of Chu Ministry of Revenue High Official, runs the royal government land tax matters concerned. 米家,并非楚国传统贵族,但米家接连两代出了楚国天子近臣,两代米家家主都是和先皇以及这一代皇子一起读书长大的,当代米家家主也被摄政王认命为楚国户部尚书,掌管朝廷钱粮事宜。 Now, Mi Family eldest young lady was selected the hand muscle. 如今,米家大小姐被人挑断了手筋。 But Fourth Princess, 而四公主, Then is missing does not see. 则失踪不见。 This grade of matter actually happens in State of Chu, being beyond control imperial family is not angry, being beyond control Qu Clan is not angry. 这等事竟然发生在楚国境内,由不得皇室不愤怒,由不得屈氏不愤怒。 ...... …… In the Xiayong City city wall, a skinny old man sits cross-legged to sit on the battlements, in its side, is standing an holding the blade military officer. 下庸城城墙上,一个枯瘦老者盘腿坐在城垛子上,在其身边,站着一个持刀的将领。 The skinny old man is surnamed Yuan, astral day ; The young military commander is surnamed Li, famous herd. 枯瘦老者姓袁,名罡天;年轻武将姓厉,名牧。 The Eastern four great nations, after present age Sovereign of Yan ascends the throne, in the nation suppresses the religious forces wantonly, when changes previous sovereign to reign „whole heaven's gods and buddhas” fishy ; 东方四大国,当代燕皇登基后全国境内大肆打压宗教势力,一改先皇在位时“漫天神佛”的乌烟瘴气; Qian people always believes in qi refiner, thought that these people can understand heavenly secrets, mysterious ; 乾人则向来信奉炼气士,觉得那些人可以参透天机,玄而又玄; Jin people forms because of the three families divide up Jin pattern too for a long time, the Helian Family ancestor is savage falls the person to come, Wenren Family letter/believes Confucian, therefore Jin land not most potential big worship ; 晋人因三家分晋格局形成太久,赫连家祖上是野人降人出身,闻人家信儒,故而晋地没有最为势大的崇奉; But Chu people, what letter/believes is the witch. 而楚人,信的是巫。 Yuan Gangtian is one of the Great Chu Twelve Shaman Directors, this Twelve Shaman Directors does not defer to the strength to divide, in fact, the witch, was comprehensive. 袁罡天是大楚十二巫正之一,这十二巫正并非按照实力划分,事实上,巫,本就包罗万象。 shaman culture, originated from Great Xia, shaman, may survey and may treat an illness and may practice divination and to be possible be lucky, may the work wait/etc, therefore , Great Chu Twelve Shaman Directors, divides, is 12 from 12 branches that witch primitive point next divides. 巫文化,最早起源于大夏,巫者,可勘测、可治病、可占卜、可行运、可著作等等,所以说,大楚的十二巫正,所划分的,是十二个自巫这个原始点下分出来的十二个分支。 Just, these branches have the new title in other countries, no longer described with witch to come. 只不过,这些分支在其他国家已经有了新的称谓,也不再用巫来形容。 Meanwhile, 同时, In the past the shanyue person also had to be the oneself shaman culture, after Chu Marquis presents Great Xia Son of Heaven made open the border, the Chu people fusion absorbed the shaman culture of shanyue person, integrated itself, and has developed, finally made shaman culture the only mainstream belief of Great Chu. 当年山越人也有属于自己的巫祝文化,楚侯奉大夏天子令开边后,楚人融合吸纳了山越人的巫祝文化,融入自身,并且一直发展下来,最终使得巫文化成为大楚的唯一主流信仰。 Li Mu does not stem from the large clan, in fact, he and Nian Yao are the same , is the person who in the Prince Regent mansion comes out, current Congzhou City General. 厉牧并非出自大族,事实上,他和年尧一样,也是摄政王府邸里出来的人,现任淙州城将军。 Congzhou City situated in the Qu Clan fiefdom, is the big aristocrat to one product that the imperial family compromises, the imperial family allows the big aristocrat to maintain the oneself independence, but the big aristocrat also allows the imperial family to leave leeway the garrison in the oneself fiefdom. 淙州城位于屈氏封地内,是大贵族向皇室妥协的一种产物,皇室允许大贵族保持自己的独立性,而大贵族也允许皇室在自己封地内留有驻军。 Therefore, the Li Mu responsibility, monitors Qu Clan. 所以,厉牧的职责,就是监控屈氏。 But now, 但现在, These things can first put down, at present needs to do, found Princess. 那些事情都可以先放下了,眼下需要做的,是将公主找到。 Fourth Princess and Mi Family young lady leaves the field headquarters, leaves behind early, the chart, wants to be able before getting married to play jokes upon freely. 四公主和米家小姐离开行辕,早早地落单出来,图的,就是想要在成婚前可以自由自在地戏耍一番。 Current dynasty Empress Dowager, is the daughter who Prince Regent and Fourth Princess birth mother tender oneself will soon get married, therefore chose turning a blind eye. 当朝太后,也就是摄政王和四公主的生母怜惜自己即将出嫁的女儿,所以对此选择了睁一只眼闭一只眼。 The State of Chu atmosphere and State of Qian are different, although does not have the Great Yan female to have the heroics that the horse draws curved, but also is far from the State of Qian female by the situation of Confucianism fetter. 楚国风气和乾国不同,虽说没有大燕女子起得马弯开弓的豪迈,但也远远没到乾国女子被礼教束缚的地步。 Chu people, is quite romantic. 楚人,是好浪漫的。 However, matter, had actually happened, has the person, under eye of one crowd of guard hides, steals Princess. 但是,事情,却已经发生了,有人,在一群护卫的眼皮子底下,将公主劫走。 Li Mu sighed, 厉牧叹了口气, Puts out a hand to trace the oneself knife handle subconsciously. 下意识地伸手摸了摸自己的刀把。 Yuan Gangtian shows a faint smile, said: 袁罡天微微一笑,道: „Was bothersome?” “烦了？” „Un.” Li Mu direct acknowledgment. “嗯。”厉牧直接承认了。 In his opinion, a woman, even if she is Princess, lost, lost, was not worth so dragging in too many people, but must make his Congzhou General coming organization search for specially. 在他看来,一个女人,哪怕她是公主,丢了,也就丢了吧,不值得这般劳师动众,还得让他这个淙州将军特意过来组织搜找。 Yuan Gangtian shakes the head, he was disinclined saying that to Li Mu anything must change this temperament the words, because to appreciate in possible Prince Regent, was Li Mu the temperament. 袁罡天摇摇头,他懒得去对厉牧说什么要改一改这个脾气的话,因为在可能摄政王所欣赏的,就是厉牧的这种脾气。 world's people thinks that Nian Yao seals young is Great Commander, the lord defends South Guarding Pass, this is the trust from Prince Regent, but Yuan Gangtian knows, the Li Mu generous treatment, is not lower than Nian Yao. 世人都以为年尧年纪轻轻就封为大帅,主守镇南关,这是来自摄政王的信任,但袁罡天知道,厉牧的恩遇,并不比年尧低。 „ My Great Chu Imperial Clan, is the phoenix descendant, although that side Yan people, is not raising Pixiu generations of as before, but in my Great Chu Imperial Palace, the collection has the Fire Phoenix essence and blood. “我大楚皇族,是凤凰后裔,虽不似燕人那边,依旧将貔貅一代代饲养着,但我大楚皇宫内,珍藏有火凤精血。 Each generation of imperial family core members, will attain to bestow the essence and blood fortunately. ” 每一代皇室核心成员,将有幸获赐精血。” Li Mu hearing this, disdains saying: „Useless thing.” 厉牧闻言,不屑道:“没用的东西。” Did he once ask Prince Regent, whether Fire Phoenix essence and blood strong physique has increased qi and blood? 他曾问过摄政王,火凤精血可否强健体魄增持气血？ The reply of Prince Regent cannot, only be able to stay behind on the arm together just like the mark of flame, will not fall off for a lifetime. 摄政王的回答是不能,只能在手臂上留下一道宛若火焰的印记,一辈子都不会脱落。 From now on, Li Mu snorts contemptuously to what Fire Phoenix essence and blood. 自此,厉牧就对什么火凤精血嗤之以鼻。 Yuan Gangtian spreads out the hand, in his palm, the small bats is opening the wing slowly, reveals the fang at the same time, in the small pupil pupil glitters the dark green ray. 袁罡天摊开手,在其掌心,有一只小小的蝙蝠正在缓缓地撑开翅膀,露出獠牙的同时,小小的瞳眸里闪烁出墨绿色的光芒。 „This is black bat that the old man feeds carefully, has the intelligence, what a pity, my Great Chu Fire Phoenix bloodlines had cut off, can only multiply by subspecies of this retention Fire Phoenix bloodlines.” “这是老夫精心喂养出来的黑蝠,极具灵性,可惜了,我大楚火凤血脉早已断绝,只能以这种保留一丝火凤血脉的亚种进行繁衍。” Saying, 说着, Yuan Gangtian spreads out another palm, said: 袁罡天摊开另一个手掌,道: „General Li, taking advantage of a blade.” “厉将军,借把刀。” Li Mu draws a sword, receives the blade. 厉牧抽刀,收刀。 Yuan Tiangang palm was delimited to pull out blood-stained mouth. 袁天罡掌心被划拉出一道血口子。 „Hū .........” “呼………” Yuan Tiangang lip trembles. 袁天罡嘴唇微颤。 „What's wrong?” Li Mu asked. “怎么了？”厉牧问道。 Yuan Tiangang narrowed the eye, is nipping the jaw slightly, said: 袁天罡眯了眯眼,微微咬着牙关,道: „So long as lacerated a small mouth to be OK on the finger.” “只要在手指上割破个小口就可以了的。” Li Mu not slightly guilty color, but said: „Next time earlier will say.” 厉牧没有丝毫愧疚之色,只是道:“下次早点说。” Yuan Tiangang is helpless, turns the palm , the blood drops on black bat, simultaneously in the mouth meditates to make incantations. 袁天罡无奈,将手掌下翻,鲜血滴落在黑蝠身上,同时口中默念巫咒。 Black bat hair, starts to reveal that a translucent color, is not the illumination, but is on the coat color instantaneously becomes incomparably fine, the vigor also raised all of a sudden. 黑蝠身上的毛发,开始显露出一种透亮之色,不是发光,而是毛色上瞬间变得无比精致,精气神也一下子提了起来。 „Went, found the Fire Phoenix aura.” “去,找到火凤气息。” Black bat flew from Yuan Tiangang palm, to in the air flies. 黑蝠飞离了袁天罡手掌,向空中飞去。 Black bat that Li Mu looks at flies, said: „Under, is?” 厉牧看着远飞的黑蝠,道:“下面,就是等？” Yuan Tiangang somewhat eats puts out the knife wound medicine to start to give the oneself palm painful to spread, simultaneously opens the mouth saying: 袁天罡有些吃痛地拿出金疮药开始给自己掌心敷着,同时开口道: „ How you should look, how must look, I, there is my means. Black bat is means that another means that in the divination say/way of witch deduce. “你们该怎么找,还是得怎么找,我呢,也有我的办法。黑蝠是其中一个办法,另一个办法,就是用巫中的占卜之道来进行推演。 Fourth Princess is my Great Chu Imperial Family, fate is clear, should be able to deduce anything. ” 四公主到底是我大楚皇室,命格清晰,应该能推演出来些什么。” Li Mu nods, said: „You also so helped Nian Yao initially?” 厉牧点点头,道:“你们当初也是这般帮年尧的吧？” Past Sovereign of Chu passed away, Great Chu many Imperial Prince struggled the position. 昔日楚皇驾崩,大楚诸多皇子争位。 The Fourth Imperial Prince subordinate Nian Yao rate/lead loyal starts to put down a rebellion in Fourth Imperial Prince Imperial Clan Imperial Guard, captured three Imperial Prince one after another , but also hides in the shanyue person tribe cannot escape by luck. 四皇子麾下年尧率忠诚于四皇子的皇族禁军开始平叛,接连俘虏了三个皇子,其中一个,还藏身于山越人部落之中也未能幸免。 Li Mu knows, under this fast marching goal explicit representation, definitely has the help of external force. 厉牧知道,这种快速行军目标明确的表象下,肯定有外力的帮助。 Used to seek the Fourth Princess way on for example this time, if initially the Nian Yao side had the Shaman Director help, time after time „capturing the ringleader first” fast even to extinguish rebelled, somewhat was natural, because on that several Imperial Prince also had definitely been granted the Fire Phoenix essence and blood. 就比如此时用来寻找四公主的方式,当初年尧身边若是有巫正帮忙,一次次的“擒贼先擒王”快速平灭叛乱,也就有些理所当然了,因为那几个皇子身上肯定也被赐予过火凤精血。 Yuan Gangtian starts to count, in the mouth sends out obscurely the incantation that is difficult to speak unceasingly. 袁罡天开始掐指,口中不断发出晦涩难懂的咒语。 Li Mu holds the blade , to continue calmly to stand side this Shaman Director. 厉牧持刀,继续静静地站在这位巫正身旁。 The night breeze has blown the Xiayong City city wall, brings the winter bone-chilling cold. 晚风吹过下庸城的城墙,带来冬日的凛冽。 ... … In Fan Residence bloomy spring yard, 范府春暖花开的小院内, The old woman sits there, facial
