LNMTL needs user funding to survive Read More

Wind and Waves Building is not difficult to look. 风波楼并不难找。 As foothold of Traceless Dao on, Wind and Waves Building is outwardly public than the Star and Moon Sect brothel. Star and Moon Sect is basically operating in regional brothels in secret, the bystander does not know who behind mostly this brothel is, the brothel name is also various. But Wind and Waves Building is chain store, everywhere is Wind and Waves Building, because their businesses are meet visibly, who can come Wind and Waves Building to discuss the business, who knows that here does do. 作为无痕道在明面上的据点,风波楼星月宗的青楼还要公开。星月宗在各地的青楼基本都是在暗中经营,外人多半不知道这个青楼背后是谁,青楼名称也各不相同。而风波楼则是“连锁店”,到处都是风波楼,因为他们的业务是明着接的,谁都能来风波楼谈生意,谁都知道这里是干什么的。 Even most times, people the Traceless Dao directly name are Wind and Waves Building, because the Wind and Waves Building reputation compared Traceless Dao mostly...... 甚至在很多时候,人们都把无痕道直接称呼为风波楼,因为风波楼名头比无痕道大多了…… Therefore Xue Mu drew a passer-by to ask casually, knew the Wind and Waves Building position. 所以薛牧只是拉着个路人随便问了一句,就知道了风波楼的位置。 towards Wind and Waves Building walks, the Xue Mu mood is very gentle, he has not lied, he almost can confirm that this goes to a Wind and Waves Building danger not to have. Any high thoughts are many, is this thinking many people, more impossible, when he delivers acts rashly. 风波楼走去,薛牧心情还是很平和的,他没说谎,他几乎可以确认此去风波楼一点危险都没有。任何高位者心思都很多,越是这种想得多的人,越不可能在他送上门的时候轻举妄动。 Actually Wind and Waves Building is not far, separated a street from Hundred Flower Garden. This region has a common ground, is the brothel, the restaurant, the casino, the institutes of various amusement, is manifestation of urban planning, symbolized the civilization of certain extent. 其实风波楼并不远,距离百花苑就隔了一条街。这片区域有一个共同点,都是秦楼楚馆,酒楼,赌场,各类玩乐之所,也是城市规划的体现,象征了一定程度的文明。 In other words, Wind and Waves Building is also institute of the amusement...... 换句话说,风波楼也是个玩乐之所…… Xue Mu looks up the signboard, as well as by the signboard is hanging swayingly the attendant in a brothel who matches the customers with the appropriate prostitute, cannot help laughing. 薛牧抬头看着招牌,以及牌匾旁边晃晃悠悠挂着的大茶壶,哑然失笑。 This special unexpectedly is a teahouse...... 这特么居然是个茶楼…… On this early in the morning, the brothel is out of business, the teahouse is opposite, many people idle is drinking tea. A building is a very big great hall, set out dozens tables, 3322 people are drinking the big pot tea, is eating the snack, talked all over the country blindly, but also on some tables plays chess to have, next Xue Mu has not been seeing chess. 这大早上的,青楼关门停业,茶楼则相反,不少人无所事事的在喝茶。一楼是个很大的大堂,摆了数十张桌子,三三两两的人喝着大壶茶,吃着茶点,天南海北地瞎侃,还有些桌子上摆了棋具,下着薛牧没见过的棋。 The teahouse taste in overall atmosphere actually quite a little Xue Mu memory, but the business is not good, the booking rate less than 1/5, does not know that because of morning reason, is Wind and Waves Building operation also this. 整体氛围倒是颇有点薛牧记忆中的茶馆味儿,不过生意也不好,上座率不足五分之一,不知是因为早上的缘故,还是风波楼的经营也就这样。 According to this appearance looks, this was one of the Wind and Waves Building message source ways. Gains the form to have certain superposition with the information of brothel, but has also distinguished, their civilians. In addition Wind and Waves Building also cruder message source- they by the cultivation technique convenience, the daily four ambushes pry the information, this can make up for the Star and Moon Sect collection pattern many blind spots. 按这个模样看,这就是风波楼的情报来源方式之一了吧。和青楼的情报获取形式有一定重合,但也有所区别,他们的更平民。此外风波楼还有一个更粗暴的情报来源-他们以功法便利,日常四出潜伏刺探情报,这点可以弥补星月宗收集模式的很多盲区。 Sees Xue Mu to pass through the gate sizes up, then some waiters welcomed: „Does customer drink tea? Buys the tea?” 薛牧进门四下打量,便有伙计迎了上来:“客官喝茶?还是买茶?” This is the Wind and Waves Building margin, is very simple, drinks tea drinks tea, buys the tea was buys ominous or buys the information to come. 这就是风波楼切口,很简单,喝茶就是喝茶,买茶的就是买凶或者买情报来了。 Xue Mu smiles: I find the person.” 薛牧笑笑:“我找人。” The waiters see him to be impressive, in the heart a little bottom, said in a low voice: What looks is......” 伙计见他气度不凡,心中有点底了,低声道:“请问找的是……” Xue Mu said lightly: Star and Moon Sect Xue Mu, seeks an interview Wind and Waves Building Master.” 薛牧淡淡道:“星月宗薛牧,求见风波楼主。” Waiter with amazement look changes. 伙计骇然色变。 *********** *********** Expects like Xue Mu, he received the treatment of ultra-high specification. 如同薛牧所料,他受到了超高规格的待遇。 Teahouse storekeeper led him to go to highest tower personally obsequiously, in the top level of only private room, on best tea. From storekeeper to the waiter, the facial expression is respectable. 茶楼掌柜亲自点头哈腰地引领他上了最高阁,在顶层唯一的雅座里,上了最好的茶。从掌柜到伙计,神情全是尊敬。 Has respect that Xue Mu to the status represents, there is to him rushes to dragon pool the respect of courage alone. The Wind and Waves Building people know that sect master just assassinated Xue Mu in the morning, is wounded to turn over, this Xue Mu dared to enter at this time unexpectedly fearlessly. No matter and he has anything to rely on, is only this guts color makes one have profound respect. 有对薛牧所代表的身份的尊敬,也有对他独闯龙潭的胆气的尊敬。风波楼的人都知道宗主早上刚刚刺杀薛牧,负伤而归,这薛牧居然胆敢在这时候昂然而入。且不管他有什么凭恃,光是这份胆色就让人肃然起敬。 This world people honor admire the atmosphere of hero to be inferred. 这种世界人们崇慕英雄的风气可见一斑。 Xue Mu single sits before the table, judges tea easely. The tea leaves is in same that there Xue Qingqiu drinks, there good compared with Xiahou Di, explained that others Wind and Waves Building is very rich, at least was not worse than Star and Moon Sect. 薛牧独身坐在桌前,悠然品茶。茶叶是和在薛清秋那儿喝到的同款,比夏侯荻那儿的好,说明人家风波楼还挺有钱的,起码不比星月宗差了。 He knows that some people are peeping at him, but he does not care at all. 他知道有人在窥视他,但他毫不在意。 Passed the moment, on front spatial chair, the air twists suddenly strangely, the distortion congealing reality slowly, formed a frame of human form more and more, slowly really turned into a person. 过了片刻,面前的空椅子上,空气忽然诡异地扭曲起来,慢慢的扭曲越来越凝实,形成了一个人形的框架,又慢慢的真的变成了一个人。 Is growing the populace face, seemingly does not have slightly the special person, it is estimated that loses that in the crowd cannot look. But the vision sinister and vicious is sharp, conceals divine light, puncturing is similar to the sharp needle to be deeply ingrained on the face, is revealing unusual refined cultivation base. 一个长着大众脸,看上去没有丝毫特别的人,估计丢人堆里都找不出来的那种。但目光阴鸷锐利,隐含神光,刺在人脸上如同尖针刻骨,显露着超凡脱俗的修为 Manager Xue really good guts color.” The populace face carries the teacup very much seriously, bumped by tea generation of liquor and Xue Mu: this eminence respects you.” 薛总管果然好胆色。”大众脸很严肃地端起茶杯,以茶代酒和薛牧碰了一下:“本座敬你。” Xue Mu sipped a tea, said with a smile: Sect Master Ying Yi?” 薛牧抿了口茶,笑道:“影翼宗主?” this eminence.” Ying Yi said lightly: Manager Xue is in the world person who sees the this eminence appearance/portrait few, is respect of this eminence to hero.” “正是本座。”影翼淡淡道:“薛总管是世上屈指可数看见本座真容的人,也是本座对英雄的敬意。” The previous quarter is still assassinating, at this moment sits chats, has the knight-errant flavor world is such interesting, is a modern difficult homing stimulation and elegant demeanor. 上一刻还在刺杀,这一刻坐着闲聊,有着武侠味道的世界就是这么有趣,也是一种现代难寻的刺激和风采。 „Does Manager Xue this come, to have what advice?” 薛总管此来,有何指教?” Xue Mu said with a smile: Last night some expensive/noble sect people independently decided to assassinate in me, was good worries about the sentiment of person of same belief because of sect master, cut to kill destroys the people of your my two friendship arbitrarily. Just now already vanishing past animosity, is right?” 薛牧笑道:“昨晚贵宗有人自作主张暗杀于我,好在宗主顾念同道之情,斩杀擅自破坏你我两家友情之徒。方才已经冰释前嫌了,对不对?” In the Ying Yi eye shows the happy expression: Right.” 影翼眼里露出笑意:“对。” Wind and Waves Building opens the front door to do business, since can get others' business, naturally will not reject the business of person of same belief is right?” 风波楼打开大门做生意,既然能接别人的生意,当然不会拒绝同道的生意对不对?” The Ying Yi vision sparkles: „The matter of last night was the disciple independently decides, this eminence does not know that he was the business that and who discussed.” 影翼目光闪了闪:“昨晚之事是门下自作主张,本座也不知道他是和谁谈的生意。” Obviously he thinks that Xue Mu is asks instigation, even wants instead to kill one wave, then pushed clean rapidly. Cracks a joke, the killer also has good of principle, is impossible to disclose the employer information casually, won't be bought instead to kill the employer, the prestige also wants? 显然他以为薛牧是来问主使者,甚至想反杀一波,便迅速推了个一干二净。开玩笑,杀手也有原则的好不好,不可能随便泄露雇主信息的,更不会被收买去反杀雇主,信誉还要不要了? Xue Mu beckons with the hand: sect master misunderstanding. In fact I must kill me not to care to whom, most curious my value how much money. Does not know whether sect master does satisfy below this small curiosity?” 薛牧摆摆手:“宗主误会了。事实上我对谁要杀我一点都不关心,最多好奇一下我值多少钱。不知宗主可否满足在下这点小小的好奇心?” This price anything secret, the killer often has with honest price tag displayed to various grade of business actually not, Ying Yi then also along the Xue Mu intent, replied: According to this eminence knows, the opposite party had/left the gold 1200.” 这价格倒不是什么机密,杀手往往对各档生意都有明码标价的,影翼便也顺了薛牧的意,答道:“据本座所知,对方出了黄金千两。” Grass......” Xue Mu spurted a tea: „Does father select on the value?” “草……”薛牧喷了口茶:“老子就值这么点?” Ying Yi looks unemotionally he did not speak. The gold 1200 are these years Wind and Waves Building receives the biggest single business...... your Ocean of Qi rookies, originally the silver 120 are even unworthy. Because follows throughout by Xue Qingqiu, the difficulty turns into the hell level instantaneously, has the golden 1200 prices, haven't you known good from bad? 影翼面无表情地看着他不说话。黄金千两已经是这些年来风波楼接到最大单的生意了……你一个气海菜鸟,本来连白银百两都不值。因为始终跟在薛清秋旁边,难度瞬间变成地狱级,才有黄金千两的价,你还不知好歹了? Xue Mu is smacking the lips, looks at Ying Yi with the vision that sympathizes with very much, like looking at the beggar is the same: Wind and Waves Building is very poor......” 薛牧咂着嘴,用很同情的目光看着影翼,如同看着叫花子一样:“风波楼很穷吧……” To spurt the tea this feedback to Ying Yi. god damn one generation of King of the Shadows were despised poorly! 这回轮到影翼很想喷茶。神特么一代暗影之王被人鄙视穷! Poor? Do you know that the killer business does bring in money much? 穷?你到底知不知道杀手生意多来钱? On the other hand, although is not poor, pouring is not rich. They are not a pulling out commission organization that ganged together various killers, but is sect. All disciple assassins, all train from infancy to maturity, sect fostered the expenditure of talent not to say. Moreover the murder obtained must apportion the person who acts most probably, this is their Traceless Dao objective, actual sect pulls out to be not many. 话说回来,虽然不穷,倒也不富。他们不是一个纠合了各类杀手的抽佣组织,而是一个宗门。所有的门下刺客,全是从小到大培养起来的,一个宗门培养人才的花费可不是说说而已。而且杀人所得大半要分给出手的人,这是他们无痕道的宗旨,实际宗门抽成不算多。 However their profitability model also is not only is the assassin, the assassin business is open for business after all rarely one time, but must have the non- main business. For example sells the expired information to the fool, this business really gains very much, moreover some offensive information can create the value. To put it bluntly Star and Moon Sect Joyous Union Sect is not has this bowl of food, really thinks that light/only depends on the brothel to be a prostitute to maintain this big sect resource demand...... because of this, Wind and Waves Building always wants to monopolize the information, has looked Star and Moon Sect Joyous Union Sect is not quite pleasing to the eyes. 不过他们盈利模式也不仅仅是做刺客,刺客生意毕竟难得开张一次,还得有非主营业务。比如卖过期情报给冤大头,这生意真的很赚,而且有些先手情报本身就能创造价值。说穿了星月宗合欢宗不也是吃这碗饭么,难道真以为光靠青楼卖笑就能维持这种大宗门的资源需求啊……就因为这个,风波楼始终想要垄断情报,一直看星月宗合欢宗都不太顺眼。 The world confusion, is the advantage toward. 天下攘攘,皆为利往嘛。 Xue Mu seems like at will typical: Even if the disciple independently decides...... for the death war that the trivial gold 1200 almost cause two rivers of blood, wasn't under expensive/noble sect has gone mad because of poverty?” 薛牧看似随意地道:“即使是门下自作主张吧……为区区黄金千两就差点导致两宗血流成河的死战,难道不是贵宗门下已经穷疯了?” This has not truly resulted in actually washes, or went mad because of poverty either is cried stupid, Ying Yi both do not want to acknowledge, divulges the details: In fact, no one knows Manager Xue in the expensive/noble sect so position. The words if we had known, did not say that gets this business, even if must meet, first continues this price, secondly...... will not make the disciple make a move to alert the enemy.” 这个倒是确实没得洗,要么是穷疯了要么是蠢哭了,影翼两个都不想承认,还是透了个底:“事实上,没人知道薛总管在贵宗如此地位。早知道的话,不说接不接这生意,即使要接,一来不止这个价钱,二来……不会让门下出手打草惊蛇。” Truly, when receives the business Ying Yi not to know that Xue Mu in Star and Moon Sect is what position, after all properly speaking Star and Moon Sect will not let male being in power, generally the male killed killed, his Traceless Dao and Star and Moon Sect were also the discord millenniums, did not fear this offending. 确实,在接下生意的时候影翼并不知道薛牧星月宗到底是个什么地位,毕竟按理说星月宗不会让男的掌权,一般男性杀了就杀了,他无痕道星月宗也是龃龉千年,才不怕这点得罪。 Until assassinated to see Shining Moon Divine Stone personally, was ambushed by Yinye, he in heart great enlightenment. This Xue Mu grasps the card of sect master, the position clearly is much higher, so-called manager that is real power manager, succeeding sect master is entitled, does not crack a joke! 直到亲自刺杀看见了辉月神石,又被夤夜狙击,他才心中大悟。这薛牧手持宗主之证,地位分明是高得离谱,所谓的总管那是实权总管,继任宗主都有资格,不是开玩笑的! The Ying Yi regret not , the Xue Mu position is so if we had known heavy, how much money he does not meet, if really causes to make war with Star and Moon Sect comprehensively, that loss is not money can make up! Only if...... can kill Xue Qingqiu directly, that is worth considering. 影翼悔之莫及,早知道薛牧地位这么重,多少钱他也不接,要是真导致和星月宗全面开战,那损失根本不是钱能弥补的!除非……能直接杀了薛清秋,那才值得考虑考虑。 Xue Mu narrows the eye, his probe has been completed. 薛牧眯起眼睛,他的试探已经完成了。 Ying Yi goes to the capital deliberately to not to kill him absolutely comes, but coveted that 1200 gold before, misinterpreted his importance, therefore sent a disciple to act at will, originally thinks that was adds...... in other words, Ying Yi went to the capital to have the important matter, being worth him making a move personally the important matter that. 影翼进京绝对不是刻意为了杀他而来,只是之前贪那千两黄金,又误判了他的重要性,所以随意派了个门下出手,本来以为是个添头……换句话说,影翼进京另有要事,值得他亲自出手的要事。 Thinks of here, Xue Mu strikes an attitude to want: This thinks that the expensive/noble sect 1200 gold must go all out continually, 10,000 tael is interested in the gold. Now seemed like the Xue understanding made a mistake, the expensive/noble sect did not lack this money, that Xue this came to take the liberty.” 想到这里,薛牧作势欲走:“本以为贵宗连千两黄金都要拼命,想必对黄金万两更感兴趣。如今看来是薛某理解错了,贵宗原来不缺这点钱嘛,那薛某此来就太冒昧了。” 10,000 tael? The muscle on Ying Yi face pulls out, said rapidly: Wind and Waves Building is truly poor, hehe...... hehe...... Manager Xue, if has any good source of income, looks in the person of same belief share, may want the patronage 12.” 万两?影翼脸上的肌肉一抽一抽的,迅速道:“风波楼确实挺穷的,呵呵……呵呵呵……薛总管若有什么好财路,看在同道份上,可要带挈一二。”
