两天后。Twilight.
暮色时分。Outsidecity gate that the dayyacitystands tall and erectpalatially.
天琊城巍峨高耸的城门外。SuYicrosses the hands behind the backinback, stares atthatancientcity wallfrom afar, in the mindis reappearingunrestrainedlytogether the beautiful figure of female.
苏奕负手于背,远远凝视着那古老的城墙,脑海中情不自禁地浮现出一道女子的倩影。Femalefacial featurescurved, wears the lotuscrown, wears the cranecloak, the handgrasps a lotuslamp, during is situated inaloneis dark, stillhasbeing able to cover upcertainlygeneration of grace and talents.
女子眉眼弯弯,头戴莲冠,身披鹤氅,手握一盏莲灯,独自立于幽暗之中,兀自有掩不住的绝代风华。Partly after making a sound, SuYishakes the head.
半响后,苏奕摇了摇头。„When does fellow daoistplanto go tomyclan?”
“道友打算何时前往我族?”One side, leafTianquis out of controlto ask.
一侧,叶天渠禁不住问道。„Waits fortimeappropriatetimes.”
“等时机合适的时候。”SuYisuitastes.
苏奕随口道。In ten days, the patriarchal clancongress of ghostsnakeclanwill open, SuYiplansbefore then, firstto understandsomenews, thengoes to the ghostsnakeclan.
再过十天,鬼蛇族的宗族大会才会拉开帷幕,苏奕打算在此之前,先了解一些消息,再择机前往鬼蛇族。„Yourthistimereturns, butmustbe careful.”
“你们此次返回,可要当心一些。”SuYireminded.
苏奕提醒道。leafTianqusmiles, said: „Inmyghostsnakeclan, the same clanremnantis the taboo, so long as the day of yacity, no onedaresto killme.”
叶天渠笑了笑,道:“在我鬼蛇族,同族相残是大忌,只要进了天琊城,就没人敢害死我。”SuYisaidindifferently: „Cannot killyou, canregard as the crimediscipleto closeyou.”
苏奕淡然道:“杀不死你,也可以把你视作罪徒关起来。”leafTianqu the eyespupilconcentrates, at once the deep breathone breath, says: „Thenclosesme, Iwill also supportto elect the newhead of the clanabsolutely not!”
叶天渠眼眸微凝,旋即深呼吸一口气,道:“便是把我关起来,我也断不会支持推选新的族长!”SuYithinks,said: „For serveral days, Iwill livein the city west‚Xiangyunlou’, ifyouencounter the problem, canlook forme.”
苏奕想了想,道:“这些天,我会住在城西‘祥云楼’,若你遇到麻烦,可以来找我。”leafTianqugiveshimthisstranger the inheritedimperial jade seal, istohistrust.
叶天渠将祖传玉玺交给他这个陌生人,是对他的信任。Hewill not disappointthistrust.
他自不会辜负了这份信任。Then, SuYihas taken a steptowardcityBank of China, the steepformdisappearsin the boundlesshuge crowdquickly.
说罢,苏奕已迈步朝城中行去,峻拔的身影很快消失在茫茫人海中。„Sir, you...... reallyfelt relieved that makesthatYoung MasterSuYitake care of the inheritedimperial jade seal?”
“大人,您……真的放心让那位苏奕公子保管祖传玉玺吗?”applyYongsaidin a low voice.
涂镛低声说道。leafTianqu the silentmoment, asked back: „Does not have the Sufellow daoist, can weliveare arriving in the day of yacity?”
叶天渠沉默片刻,反问道:“没有苏道友,我们能活着抵达天琊城吗?”applyYongis startled.
涂镛一怔。leafTianquhas taken a steptowardcityBank of China.
叶天渠已迈步朝城中行去。
......
……City west.
城西。Xiangyunlouis an inn.
祥云楼是一家客栈。Long ago, Xiangyunloutook rootin the dayyacity.
很久以前,祥云楼就扎根在天琊城内。It is reported that the ancestor of Xiangyunlouboss, oncehad/leftextremelyextraordinarysword of oneon the sovereignboundaryroadto cultivate/repair, swordsmanshipattainmentsexceedingly highpenetratingplace, has slaughteredmanydemons and monsters.
据传祥云楼老板的祖上,曾出过一位在皇境路上极为了不得的剑修,一手剑道造诣通天彻地,屠戮过诸多妖魔鬼怪。Regardless of the hearsaygenuine and fake, Xiangyunlou can indeed be calledis an ancientinn.
无论传闻真假,祥云楼的确称得上是一座古老之极的客栈。Cannot remembertosomeelderscharactersancient, when thisinnwhenappearsin the dayyacity.
古老到一些老辈人物都想不起,这座客栈时何年何月出现在天琊城的。Butinnow, Xiangyunlouwas regarded asin the day of yacity the safestinn.
而在当今,祥云楼又被视作天琊城中最安全的客栈。Thenannoys the dreadfuldisaster, so long as the front door of Xiangyunlou, canhave a guest roominXiangyunlou, thendoes not needto be worriedto sufferanydanger.
便是惹出滔天祸患,只要进了祥云楼的大门,能够在祥云楼拥有一间客房,便不必担心遭受任何危险。Before the time, once the arroganceominoushorizontalbigmonsterprovoked the ghostsnakeclan, issued a warrant for arrestby the entirecity, butafterenteringXiangyunlou, the strength of ghostsnakeclanthenevacuated.
以前时候,曾有一个气焰凶横的大妖招惹了鬼蛇族,被全城通缉,但在进入祥云楼之后,鬼蛇族的力量便撤离了。However, thisbigmonsterwas seizedby the ghostsnakeclanfinally.
不过,这个大妖最终还是被鬼蛇族抓走了。
The reasonis very simple, the guest room in innwas too expensive.
原因很简单,客栈的客房太贵了。ThisbigmonsterhidinXiangyunlouhalf a month later, finallybecause ofnot being able to pay the room charge, butbyXiangyunlourumbling......
这位大妖躲藏在祥云楼半个月之后,最终因为付不起房费,而被祥云楼给轰了出去……Room charge of Xiangyunlou, verystrange.
祥云楼的房费,也很邪乎。If the bossis happy, not takes a single cent.
老板若心情好,分文不取。If the boss the moodis very bad, the opens the mouth is the sky-high price.
老板若心情很坏,张口便是天价。Naturally, the room chargeprice of commontime, is not the commonmember can pay.
当然,寻常时候的房费价格,也不是一般修士能付得起。Because a commonguest room, needsto pay888eightspirit stones!
因为一座寻常客房,都需要付出八百八十八块八品灵石!Thisisonemakes the family propertyrichspiritwheelboundarycharactersfeel the anxietypricesufficiently. Therefore, the passingtheseyears, the business of Xiangyunlou has been very lonely.
这是一个足以让家底殷实的灵轮境人物都感到肉疼的价格。故而,过往这些年来,祥云楼的生意一直很冷清。At this time, the dim light of nightsoonapproaches, colorful lights start to their splendor.
此时,夜色快要来临,华灯初上。Xiangyunloubosssitsafter the counteralone, is carryingpotliquor, is sippingone after another.
祥云楼老板独自坐在柜台后,拎着一壶酒,一口一口地抿着。Hismedium stature, wears an obsoletegraycotton robe, the cheeksare thin, the lookis faint, does not have anyexpression.
他中等身材,穿着一身陈旧的灰色布袍,脸颊消瘦苍老,神色淡漠,没有任何表情。In a buildingspaciousmain hall, onlysitstwoguests.
一楼宽敞的厅堂内,只坐着两个客人。Thisis a young girland a middle age, the clothing and personal adornmentsare all gorgeous, looksapparentis unusual.
这是一个少女和一个中年,皆衣饰华美,一看便知身世不凡。
The middle agefor a long time, clenches teethto set outhesitantfinally, before arriving at the counter .
中年犹豫许久,最终咬牙起身,来到柜台前。Inhislooksternpassesis respecting the color, holds the fist in the other handto salute upon meetingtowardXiangyunloubosssaid: „Ghostsnakeclanmain nerveelder‚leafZishan’, has seen the senior.”
他神色庄肃中透着敬色,朝祥云楼老板抱拳见礼道:“鬼蛇族主脉长老‘叶紫山’,见过前辈。”Xiangyunloubosssitsinthatindifferently, the eyelidhas not lifted, said: „The terrible business of yourpatriarchal clan, do not say.”
祥云楼老板漠然坐在那,眼皮都没抬一下,道:“你们宗族的麻烦事,就不要说了。”

声音也淡漠得毫无情绪波动。
The middle-agedcomplexionnamedleafZishanchanges, maybrace oneself saying: „Senior, even ifannoysyou is not quick, Iwantto askyouto act, helpmyclan!”
名叫叶紫山的中年脸色微变,可还是硬着头皮道:“前辈,纵使惹您不快,我还是想请您出手,帮帮我族!”
The Xiangyunloubossbrowslightlywrinkle, hesippedliquor, said: „Thisisyourpatriarchal clanownmatter, non-bitter experienceforeign invasion, from, whenis solvedbyyou.”
祥云楼老板眉头微皱,他抿了一口酒,道:“这是你们宗族自己的事情,又非遭遇外敌入侵,自当由你们自己来解决。”
The leafZishanfacial featuresfluctuate, bitter and astringentsay/way: „Seniorhasnot to know,myclanremote antiquitythreeelders, alreadyandadjoinMoroccansuccessorriverYingliuto unite the same place, wantedto recommend that in the August15same daynewhead of the clan, the intentionwas really big, ifmadethemwork, the consequencewas really dreadful.”
叶紫山面容变幻,苦涩道:“前辈有所不知,我族太上三长老,已和毗摩传人江映柳联合一起,欲在八月十五当天推举新的族长,意图甚大,若让他们得逞,后果着实不堪设想。”„Adjoinsrubsto teach others......”
“毗摩传人……”Xiangyunloubosstalked to oneself.
祥云楼老板自语。Halfsound, heshakes the headto sayslightly: „I said that thismatter, Iwill not meddle.”
半响,他微微摇头道:“我说了,这件事,我不会插手。”Expressionfaintchilling.
语气淡漠冷硬。
The leafZishanlookis low-spirited, resemblesloses the vigorall of a sudden, saidreluctantly: „Thank your for your hospitalitysenior.”
叶紫山神色黯然,似一下子失去精气神般,勉强说道:“叨扰前辈了。”Then, hefolds the bodyto return to the seatplace, talkedin a low voicewiththatyoung girl.
说罢,他折身返回坐席处,和那少女低声交谈起来。Quick, the young girlalsoreveals the dejectedcolor.
很快,那少女也露出颓然之色。„Iswhomakesyouaskmeto act?”
“是谁让你们来求我出手的?”
, Behind the distant placecounter, Xiangyunloubossopens the mouthsuddenly, the lookis quiet.
忽地,远处柜台后方,祥云楼老板开口,眼神幽冷。
The young girlsets outimmediately, saidhastily: „Smalltime, the younger generationoncelistened to the ancestor saying that the senioris a hiddenworldperson of high skill, has the method of exceedingly highpenetratingplace, andhas the specialrelationswithmyclans, therefore, Iact without authorization, invited the uncleandIcomestogether, the hopecan the help of senior.”
那少女当即起身,连忙道:“小的时候,晚辈曾听老祖宗说过,前辈乃是一位隐世高人,有通天彻地的手段,并且和我族之间有着特殊的关系,故而,我才擅自做主,请叔父和我一起前来,希望能够得到前辈的帮助。”Young girlblack colorskirtclothes, the facial featuresrise above worldly affairsdelicately, the tenderbodyis tall and straight, the manneris graceful.
少女一袭墨色裙裳,面容清秀绝俗,娇躯挺拔傲人,举止落落大方。Onlyhasin the foreheads, hasworried look that wipesto be able hardly be removed.
唯有眉宇间,有着一抹挥之不去的忧色。Xiangyunloubossaskedagain: „Who is the ancestor in yourmouth?”
祥云楼老板再问道:“你口中的老祖宗是谁?”
The black inkskirtyoung girldeep breathone breath, said: „My familyancestorgiven nameleafYu, the worldallsaid that hisfeatherfalls the spiritsovereign!”
墨裙少女深呼吸一口气,道:“我家老祖宗名讳叶妤,世人皆称其羽落灵皇!”Xiangyunloubossinfaintquietcoldeyepupil, exudingnot to wipeabsent-minded that is easyto detect.
祥云楼老板淡漠幽冷的眼眸内,泛起一抹不易察觉的恍惚。At once, heweakens the say/way: „Your familyancestorwill not die, whenshereturns, will still the consequence that ghostsnakeclandisturbanceincurs.”
旋即,他淡漠道:“你家老祖宗不会死,等她归来时,自会平定鬼蛇族这一场风波所引发的后果。”
The black inkskirtyoung girlis startled, saidanxiously: „But once recommended that the newhead of the clan, according tomyclancustom, was the ancestorcame back, is unable to changethisresult.”
墨裙少女一怔,焦急道:“可一旦推举新的族长,按照我族规矩,就是老祖宗回来了,也无法改变这个结果。”
, Shecontinued saying: „And, wesuspected,thistimematterhas the secret facts, the remote antiquitythreeeldersandthatriverYingliu must schemeanything, in the event ofwhatuncertaindisaster, butis unable to make upagain.”
顿了顿,她继续道:“并且,我们怀疑,这次的事情另有隐情,太上三长老和那江映柳明显要图谋什么,一旦发生什么不可预测的祸事,可就再无法弥补了。”Listens, Xiangyunloubossactuallyremains unmoved, faintsay/way: „You , if no otherthings, leaves.”
听罢,祥云楼老板却不为所动,淡漠道:“你们若没有其他事情,就离开吧。”Hetakes up the wine pot, sippedonesilently.
他拿起酒壶,默默啜了一口。Seesthis, the black inkskirtyoung girlstayed, scared.
见此,墨裙少女呆了呆,失魂落魄。HerleafZishan, sighedhoweversighs.
她身旁的叶紫山,也不由喟然一叹。In the presentghostsnakeclan, the strengths of theirmain nervefall intocompletelypassively.
如今的鬼蛇族内,他们主脉的力量完全陷入被动中。What we definitely know is that in Augustin15same daypatriarchal clanconferences, depended on the strengths of theirmain nerve, is unable to preventto recommendmatter that newhead of the clan happened!
可以肯定的是,八月十五当天的宗族会议上,就凭他们主脉的力量,根本无法阻止推举新族长的事情发生!
The atmosphere, for a whilebecomesverydepressed.
气氛,一时变得很沉闷。At this time, a youngster who wore the azurerobewalked.
这时候,一个身着青袍的少年走了进来。Hecrosses the hands behind the backinback, the deportmentis leisurely and carefree, the visionsweepssitsincounterrearXiangyunlouboss, thenlooked that toleafZishanandblack ink that skirtyoung girlsitinnot far away.
他负手于背,仪态悠闲,目光一扫坐在柜台后方的祥云楼老板,而后看向了坐在不远处的叶紫山和墨裙少女。Then, hewalksdirectly, said: „leaf is Yuyour familyancestor?”
而后,他径直走过去,道:“叶妤是你家老祖宗?”
A strangeyoungster, said„leafYu” the name, thisletZishanand a black inkskirtyoung girlbrowallslightlywrinkle.
一个陌生的少年,却直呼“叶妤”之名,这让叶紫山和墨裙少女眉头皆微微一皱。„Uncle, wewalks.”
“叔父,我们走吧。”
The black inkskirtyoung girlis disinclinedto pay attention, sets outto planto leave.
墨裙少女懒得理会,起身打算离开。„Alsogood.”
“也好。”LeafZishanalsolongbody.
叶紫山也长身而起。SuYismilesdeprecatingly, said: „Replied that Isomeissues, perhapsIcanhelpyoureduce and solvethisdisturbance.”
苏奕不以为意地笑了笑,道:“回答我一些问题,或许我可以帮你们化解这一场风波。”Such remarks, the black inkskirtyoung girlandleafZishanstare.
此话一出,墨裙少女和叶紫山一愣。SitsXiangyunloubossaftercounter, looked atSuYioneeyes, at onceshakes the head, takes back the vision.
就是坐在柜台后的祥云楼老板,也不由多看了苏奕一眼,旋即就摇了摇头,收回目光。
A smallrole of spiritwheelboundary, regardless ofwantsto makewhatmonster, is very difficultto arouse his old person'sinterest.
一个灵轮境的小角色罢了,无论想作什么妖,都很难引起他这种老人的兴趣。„You?”
“你?”black inkskirtyoung girldoubt.
墨裙少女狐疑。LeafZishancoldsnort/hum, said: „Young people, aresovereignhere, does not dareto speakso the boast, but alsoplease be dignified!”
叶紫山则冷哼一声,道:“年轻人,就是皇者在此,也不敢说这般大话,还请你自重!”
A strangeyoungster, bravedto saysuddenly,canhelptheirghostsnakeclanreduce and solvecurrent to contract the disturbance, howthissawhowlikely a not knowing the immensity of heaven and earthignorantyoung child.
一个陌生的少年,忽然冒出来说,能帮他们鬼蛇族化解当前面临的内患风波,这怎么看怎么像个不知天高地厚的无知小儿。ActuallyseesSuYito think,said: „Youdo not believe,poursis also reasonable, wait a bit.”
却见苏奕想了想,道:“你们不相信,倒也在情理之中,稍等。”Hefolds the bodyto move toward the counterplace.
他折身走向柜台处。leafZishan the browwrinkles, does not know that thisazurerobeyoungsterwantsto makeanything, passes on the sound saidin a low voice: „Rexi, and wait/etclooked.”
叶紫山眉头皱起,不知道这青袍少年想做什么,低声传音道:“若溪,且等等看。”
The black inkskirtyoung girlpasses messageto whisper: „Uncle, Ithinksthatfellowis a lunatic, pays attention tohimto doreally?”
墨裙少女传音嘀咕道:“叔父,我看那家伙就是个疯子,理会他作甚?”leafZishan the pupillight flashmoves, said: „For the time beinglooks is.”
叶紫山眸光闪动,道:“姑且一看便是。”
The black inkskirtyoung girlheartunwillingsentimenthopedoes not nod.
墨裙少女心不甘情不愿地点了点头。Behind the counter, Xiangyunloubosssippedliquor, lookedhas not looked atSuYi, lookfaintsay/way:
柜台后方,祥云楼老板自顾自抿了一口酒,看也没看走过来的苏奕,神色淡漠道:„Little fellow, ifyouarestay at an inn, payment, if not, leavesas soon as possible. Iam now sad, ifwere sick, do not blamemeto loseyou.”
“小家伙,若你是来住店的,就交钱,若不是,就尽早离开。我现在心情不好,万一厌烦了,别怪我把你丢出去。”SuYi, took up the beverage bottle on counter, placed the tip of the noseto smellsmelling, thissaid: „Does seniorbutcher, go into debtto render back the money, owes the life?”
苏奕哦了一声,拿起柜台上的酒瓶,放在鼻端嗅了嗅,这才说道:“老屠夫,欠债还钱,欠命呢?”Bewilderedwords, mayfall into the Xiangyunloubossear, actually after imitatingtogether the great distanceendlessyears, resounds throughinheartstartling thunderclap.
一句莫名其妙的话,可落入祥云楼老板耳中,却仿似一道相隔无尽岁月之后,重新响彻于心田的一道惊雷。Histhatfaintquietcoldpupil, exudes the fearfulgloss, is staring atSuYistubbornly, did not say a word.
他那淡漠幽冷的眸,泛起慑人的光泽,死死盯着苏奕,一言不发。ThisXiangyunlouboss, beforewas the stance that a calamitywas also without turning a hair, likehaving been through repeatedlyrock of yearswashout, was coldandhard, looked atallpale.
这位祥云楼老板,之前一直是一副天塌地陷也面不改色的姿态,就像历经岁月冲刷的磐石,又冷又硬,淡看一切。Butat this time, hesomewhatis obviously rude!
可此时,他明显有些失态!This, catches the eyegroundbyleafZishan and black inkskirtyoung girl, is surprised, realized that someare not right.
这一幕,被叶紫山和墨裙少女捕捉到眼底,都不由顿感意外,意识到有些不对劲。Seniorbutcher?
老屠夫?Why will the youngstercallXiangyunlouboss?
那少年为何会如此称呼祥云楼老板?Also, whatmeaninghisthose words...... are, howto letthishiddenworldinthis'sterrifyingcharacter, can't take a seatall of a sudden?
还有,他那句话……又是什么意思,怎会让得这位隐世于此的恐怖人物,一下子就坐不住了?
