I do not know, in brief, is to go to the upstream!” 穆映雪有点错愕,她抿着红唇道:“我…我也不知,总之,就是要去上游！” forest Hongying seems like smiles knowingly, this said: „Since goes to the upstream, that with me together, on our road is also good to keep company, I alone truly was also cold and still.” 林红英像是心领神会地笑了笑,这才道:“既然是去上游,那就与我一起吧,咱们路上也好做个伴,我一个人也确实冷寂了点。” „That good that good, we then keep company!” Mu Yingxue similarly happy say/way. “那好那好,咱们便是做个伴！”穆映雪同样开心道。 While two people at a time of the conversation, hear to have the sound to transmit suddenly. 而正当两人在交谈之际,忽然听见有声音传来。 They raise the head, seeing is only the middle-aged Daoist, looks around in the , the Daoist also discovers two females, immediately asked submissively: „Forest leader, Mu Zhangjiao!

successfully passed through the imaginary sea. 司言已经从青州拐过另一个州的边角,也成功穿越了幻海。 But when actually also to imaginary sea, he realizes the change, because when the way, he sees in that Yunglo city and surrounding imaginary in the sea unexpectedly, is storing the armies of massive day of Shengguo! 但其实也是到了幻海之时,他才意识到之间的变化,因为在途径幻海腹地之时,他居然见到那永乐城之中和外围,屯着大量天圣国的军队！ That quantity, has 100,000! 那数量,足足有十万！ These armies, should and other approach the state of Black Tortoise country's from Qingzhou, assembles, was stationed associated in the close Yunglo city with day Shengguo. 这些军队,应该是从青州和其余靠近玄武国的州,所调集过来,都驻扎在了与天圣国交往密切的永乐城之中。 It seems like this Emperor Wen will have the foreknowledge forever, no doubt the royal government vitality damages severely, but this did not represent his army to lose many, the fundamental force of royal government, still also not true defect! 看来这永文帝也是有先见之明,固然朝廷元气大伤,但这并不代表他的军队损失了多少,朝廷的根本力量,依然还未真正缺失！ These armies form the battlefield, the might also no small matter, above the plain, the strength is not the common member can compare. 这些军队结成战阵,威力也非同小可,在平原之上,战力也不是寻常修士能够比拟。 Let alone these armies, are actually still rushing to here continuously, the following line of supply, is seems long. 更何况这些大军,其实还在源源不断奔赴此处,后面的补给线,更是显得漫长。 Forever Emperor Wen seems to have known fairly well to the mutation in this Black Tortoise country's, started deploying troops and forming lines, beforehand prepared completely safe for the war. 永文帝似乎早已对这玄武国的异变心中有数,开始了排兵布阵,事先为战争做好了万全的准备。 Imaginary sea Si word is more familiar, he goes to Black Tortoise from another place, was about on the 2nd, has arrived. 幻海司言更熟悉,他从另一个地方直去玄武,才不过两日,就已经抵达了。 The Black Tortoise country is not big, even did not have the region of Qingzhou to be broad, generally is also a Xiaozhou, mercenaries not over 100,000. 玄武国并不大,甚至还没有青州的地域广阔,大抵也就是个小洲而已,佣兵人数也不超过十万。 Black Tortoise country in name in managing of punishment Catholicism. 玄武国名义上是在刑天教的下辖之中。 This was a few years ago, after punishment Catholicism obtained one after another other three countries bowed the head, the Black Tortoise king monarch sovereign under the pressure, is willing to submit , and king monarch sovereign also for this reason from truncating the title, turned into the king by the sovereign, from the solemn emperor, turned into king of the country, just like the feudal lord. 这是前些年,在刑天教相继得到其余三国俯首之后,玄武国主迫于压力,才甘愿臣服,并且国主还为此自削封号,以皇而变成王,从堂堂皇帝,变成了一国之王,犹如诸侯。 But even so, punishment Catholicism actually presses on step by step to the Black Tortoise country in recent years, even is trying to assassinate the king monarch sovereign repeatedly in secret, attempts to plan for the country's good thoroughly successfully, but these factors, caused outside this king monarch sovereign and territory the great nation, day Shengguo more walks is nearer. 但即使如此,刑天教近些年却还是对玄武国步步紧逼,甚至多次在暗中试图刺杀国主,妄图彻底谋国成功,而这些因素,也导致了这位国主与域外大国,天圣国越走越近。 However this Black Tortoise country, Si word feels actually somewhat strangely, the climate and Jiangnan in Black Tortoise country's are somewhat similar, similarly is the four seasons is distinct, the bloody water is abundant, but in this border, the people are not abundant, many people also emaciated, seeming like the malnutrition. 然而这玄武国,司言倒是觉得有些奇怪,玄武国的气候和江南有些类似,同样是四季分明,血水充沛,但这国境之内,人民却并不算富足,有许多人都还面黄肌瘦,看起来就是营养不良。 Actually according to truth, in the situation of good crop weather, so long as the common people are willing to work, has not eaten does not sate the appetite, but here somewhat is actually just the opposite. 其实按道理,在风调雨顺的情况下,只要百姓肯劳动,就没有吃不饱饭的,但这里却有些恰恰相反。 Here people personality is still very gentle, when the division word must go to Black Tortoise capital city cloud Teng, a way village, when with a Sir chatted, but also by the opposite party whole family, remaining to eat meal. 只是这里的人们性格依然十分平和,司言要去玄武都城云腾之时,途径一个村落,在与一个大爷闲聊之时,还被对方一家人,给留下来吃饭。 Above the table is only some plain food, only meat, a carp that Sir catches from the river. 餐桌之上只是些粗茶淡饭,唯一的荤腥,还是大爷从河里捞上来的一条鲤鱼。 Su peach is pampered since childhood, the mouth nature is tricky, as if a little being hard deglutition, but was poked the thigh to remind with the chopsticks by Si word, this braced oneself to finish eating. 苏桃儿娇生惯养,嘴巴自然刁,似乎有点难以下咽,不过被司言用筷子戳了戳大腿提醒,这才硬着头皮吃完了。 Si word asked on the dining table as outsider: „Uncle, your in crop is very obviously good, but in this border, why so many famine victims?” 司言以外乡人的身份在饭桌上问道:“老大爷,你这地里的收成明明很好,但这国境之内,为何有那么多的饥民？” Asked, the opposite party started to sigh. 这么问道,对方不由开始叹气。 He said: „Young master, the payment of taxes of this monarch was too heavy, crop of our one mu place, at least has half to pay to the monarch, produces outside works, needs the payment high taxes, we also calculate many, my old man plants some sweet potatoes in the back side of the mountain covertly, suffices us to eat reluctantly, this monarch, too cruel wicked!” 他道:“公子,这国君的赋税太重了,我们一亩地的收成,至少有一半要缴纳给国君,就连在外生产打工,也需得缴纳重税,我们还算好些,我这老头子偷偷摸摸在后山种些番薯,勉强够我们吃食,这国君,太残暴无道了啊！” Sees Sir to complain, his son reminded immediately: „Father, do not say!” 见大爷抱怨,他儿子立即提醒道:“爹,不要说了！” Si Yantai the hand hints to be all right, he also knows the truth of careless talk makes trouble, but to let this person felt relieved, he also echoes saying: „I am also hear this king monarch sovereign am an unenlightened ruler, all firm nationalizations, the people will even be eliminated the qualifications of doing business.” 司言抬手示意没事,他也知道祸从口出的道理,但为了让这家人放心,他也附和道:“我也是听闻这国主是个昏君,把所有商行都收归国有,民众甚至连经商的资格都会被剥夺。” Listened to Si word saying that the opposite party felt relieved. 听司言这么说,对方才宽心下来。 Sir one is also the harmony happiness, is not only in the family/home the members, two grandsons, a man and a woman, are very lovable. 那大爷一家也是其乐融融,不仅是家里成员都尚在,还有两个孙儿,一男一女,很是可爱。 That young boy is entangling Si word, the little miss then wants Su Taoer to hug. 那小男孩是缠着司言,那小姑娘便是要苏桃儿抱抱。 When the result that Sir's daughter-in-law comes out, sees this shape, immediately said with a smile: „Young master, my these two small mischievous are hugging to you, you became the family of four actually, is really also good.” 结果那大爷的儿媳妇出来之时,见到此状,随即笑道:“公子,我这两个小顽皮给你们抱着,你们倒是成了一家四口,是也真不错。” Si word laughs, Su Taoer then stamps the feet, shouts to argue: „Where has, he is the masters! He has not married others!” 司言哈哈大笑,苏桃儿便是一跺脚,嚷着争辩道:“哪有呀,他是人家师父呐！他还没娶人家！” But was taking one's leave the family, two people must go toward Black Tortoise capital city cloud Teng. 而在拜别了这一家人,两人就要往玄武都城云腾而去。 However Sir also comes out to see off, above the facial expression worried, that male Lord humanity: „This you, you, if in this direction, night must pass through opposite that hump, the villages on these humps, how did not know the place, village over a hundred people vanished unexpectedly, regardless of everybody, does not know that perhaps where, had the evil spirit to cause trouble, your you made a detour is quite good.” 不过那大爷一家也都出来相送,神情之上不无担忧,那家男主人道:“这位兄台,你若往这个方向出发,想必夜里要经过对面那个山岗,那些山岗上的村落,不知怎么地,全村上百口人竟然都消失了,无论男女老少,也不知去了哪里,或许是有妖物作祟,兄台你们还是绕道而行比较好。” Did the people in village disappear? 村庄的人都消失了么？ Si word listens, smiles, claimed oneself know in heart, leads Su Taoer to go toward that hump. 司言听罢,也只是笑笑,声称自己心里有数,就带着苏桃儿往那山岗而去。 The mountain in Black Tortoise country is not high, but the woods actually also especially cover, was only to that hump village, Si word also found it strange, in this village truly a person did not have. 玄武国之内的山都不算高,不过树林却也格外茂密,只是到了那山岗村落,司言也是觉得奇怪,这村子里确实一个人都没有了。 The front doors of many houses are also opening, the entrance is also putting the teapot of boiling water, but inside charcoal has extinguished, enters in the house to look, in the bowl the boiled rice has not moved, but is rancid, seems like the cooking a meal time, this accident outbreak, causes in this village, everyone also disappears. 许多房屋的大门还开着,门口还放着烧水的茶壶,但里面的木炭早已熄灭,走进房屋里一看,锅子里煮熟的米饭没动过,但是已经馊了,似乎是正在煮饭的时候,这变故才突然发生,导致这村子里,所有人都随之消失。 Su peach picks up a windmill toy of child from the ground, blew two to ask: „Master, where did everyone in this village go to?” 苏桃儿从地上捡起一个小孩子的风车玩具,吹了两下问道:“师父,这村子的大家都去哪里了？” Si word looked at the circle, said indifferently: „Should not be the evil spirit causes trouble, does not have continually monster qi, seemingly is more like the man-made disaster, I felt actually magical powers remains.” 司言看了圈,漠然道:“应该不是妖物作祟,连妖气都没有,看起来更像是人祸,我倒是感觉到了神通的残留。” The priest and disciple lingered the circle in the surroundings, really had not discovered, this is determined to leave. 师徒两人又在周围徘徊了圈,实在没有发现,这才决心离开。 Almost also in the scheduled time, arrived in Black Tortoise capital city cloud Teng, is the royal palace in it place. 差不多也在预定的时间,抵达了玄武都城云腾,也是王宫的所在之地。 Si word bends down to look at this old city in the nighttime sky, after sending out signal smoke and fire, arrived at a restaurant to wait. 司言在夜空之中俯览这座古城,在发出信号的烟火之后,来到了一处酒楼等候。 In this restaurant is the bamboo collapses, does not have the chair, sits. 这酒楼之内都是竹塌,也没有椅子,都是席地而坐。 However only passed the quarter of an hour, the person who they wait for has come. 然而才只过了一刻钟,他们等待的人就已经来了。 Coming the person is a youngster, evidently is about 15-16 years old, is much longer, is very handsome. 来人是个少年,看样子才不过15-16岁,长得唇红齿白,很是俊朗。 His facial expression is somewhat faint, he sees Si word, first goes forward to bow to salute saying: „Profound Yin Pope still Fangyou taught the disciple, Cao positive/correct, paid a visit vice- sovereign.” 只是他的神情有些淡漠,他见到司言,首先上前躬身行礼道:“玄阴教宗尚方右教弟子,曹正,拜见副宗主。” Si word knits the brows: „I am not your vice- sovereign, I also for from agreeing with clear/pain Xuanyin.” 司言皱眉道:“我可不是你们的副宗主,我也为从同意过楚玄音。” „Grandfather signalling to the villain, making the villain shout you.” “祖父传信给小人,让小人那么喊你。” Cao is looking around in neighbor, then reminded: „Vice- sovereign, starting today you were the Black Tortoise king monarch sovereign, but also please wear the mask, the villain led you to enter the royal palace.” 曹正在附近张望了下,然后提醒道:“副宗主,从今日起你就是玄武国主了,还请你把面具戴起来,小人带你进王宫。” Si word nods, but looks to Su peach, asked: „My this disciple what to do?” 司言点头,但是看向苏桃儿,问道:“我这徒儿怎么办？” Cao positive/correct takes out one package of clothes from the bosom, said: „May put on this, dresses up the palace maid to be able.” 曹正从怀中取出一包衣裳,道:“可穿这身,装扮成宫女便可。” Su peach received, yes smiles, sneaked in Si word the universe bag to start to replace. 苏桃儿接过,也是嘿嘿一笑,钻进了司言的乾坤袋里开始换装。 The division word facial expression moves slightly, takes up own small bag, pushes aside a small opening to peep at toward. 司言神情微动,拿起自己的小袋子,往里面扒开一个小口子窥视。 However the girl, completely had not actually discovered, until soon , the girl comes out. The Su peach even chignon also untied, made into two small steamed stuffed buns in the head, became a water spirit young palace maid. 然而那丫头,却全然没有发现,直到不久之后,那丫头出来。苏桃儿连发髻也解开,弄成了两个小包子在头上,成了个水灵的小宫女。 She

is the typical big long leg, naturally is puts on anything to be attractive. 这丫头身材本来就高挑,算是典型的大长腿,自然是穿什么都好看。 Su peach looked at Si Yancheng another appearance, went forward to pull his beard to say with a smile: „Master, your gets older!” 苏桃儿一看司言成了另一幅模样,上前拉扯他的胡子笑道:“师父,你年纪变大啦！” But Si word sits respectfully, then pretends to say with deep veneration: „Come, peach you sit.” 而司言则是正襟危坐,然后装作肃然道:“来,桃儿你坐好。” This small girl is obedient, is going against two small steamed stuffed bun heads, kneels to sit in the face of the division word. 这小丫头听话,顶着两个小包子头,跪坐在司言面前。 Si word goes forward, is pulling the meat of Su Taoer two sides cheeks, opposes with her, then like the toy, about pulled, sexually harasses saying: „Our harem beautiful woman 3000, big spring water, there is a disciple your scoop.” 司言上前,拉扯着苏桃儿两边脸颊的肉,与她对立,然后就像玩具一样,左右拉扯了下,调戏道:“朕后宫佳丽三千,偌大的一池春水,也有徒儿你这一瓢。” Su peach strikes Si word the chest to shout: „Master you plays tricks on others!” 苏桃儿敲打司言的胸口嚷道:“师父你又戏弄人家！” Cao Zhengqing coughed several to remind: „King monarch sovereign, you are not an emperor, can only say this solitary one, but cannot say Us.” 曹正轻咳了几声提醒道:“国主,您已经不是皇帝了,只能自称孤,而不能自称朕。” Si said: „Good, understood this solitary one.” 司言道:“好,孤明白了。” Cao positive/correct also said: „King monarch sovereign, in this royal palace, there are too many traps, there are too many dangers, you decide however must be careful, particularly in recently, your even king monarch sovereign, but still might lose the life.” 曹正又道:“国主,这王宫之中,有太多的陷阱,也有太多的危险,您定然要当心,尤其是在最近,您即使是国主,但却也有可能丢了性命。” When Si happily chatted, revealed a row of white teeth. 司言笑起来之时,露出了一排皓齿。 „Knew.” As he dispatches a picture scroll, „also has to be exhausted your matter, found the female above this picture scroll for me, the quicker the better, after finding, brings to see me.” “知道了。”随着他递出一个画卷,“还有劳烦你一件事,替我找到这画卷之上的女子,越快越好,找到之后,就带来见我。” Cao positive/correct received from Si word the hand, should say: „Also asked the king monarch sovereign to feel relieved, must lead this female.” 曹正从司言手中接过,应道:“还请国主放心,务必会将此女带到。” The division word wears a straw hat, had/left this restaurant with Cao positive/correct, passed through the bustling crowd, goes toward the royal palace directly. 司言戴着一顶草帽,和曹正一起出了这酒楼,穿越了熙攘的人群,径直往王宫而去。 „Hears the this solitary one biggest support influence is the column country Great Generals and current dynasty prime minister, has this, this solitary one this dissolute and unrestrained king monarch sovereign, can support today, is.” “听闻孤最大的支持势力乃是柱国大将军和当朝宰相,正是有这位在,孤这荒淫无度的国主,才能支持到今日,是不是。” „Very much so, king monarch sovereign.” Cao Zhengying said, „column country Great Generals and prime minister, were my profound Yin Pope still in the side the founder, Li Jiaozhu, board of personnel Shangshu are my Pope protected the law respectively greatly, Eastern Protector.” “正是如此,国主。”曹正应道,“柱国大将军和宰相,分别是我玄阴教宗尚方上正教主,李教主,吏部尚书乃是我教宗大护法,东方护法。” Si word hears is startled however. 司言听闻不由怔然。 Originally the influence of this profound Yin Pope, went down to the Black Tortoise country unexpectedly, it seems like forever Emperor Wen or clear/pain Xuanyin, seems to be deep to this Black Tortoise country layout. 原来这玄阴教宗的势力,竟然深入到了玄武国之内,看来无论是永文帝还是楚玄音,似乎早已对这玄武国布局已深。 The division word even starts to suspect, the death of this Black Tortoise king monarch sovereign, is this to mother and child personally director. 司言甚至都开始怀疑起来,这玄武国主之死,是不是这对母子亲手导演。 After all forever Emperor Wen, should already the clear neat profound sound Pope sovereign status. 毕竟永文帝自己,应该是早已清楚楚玄音教宗宗主的身份。 But Cao positive/correct also reminded: „King monarch sovereign, but, punishment Catholicism is even so bigger in the influence of Black Tortoise country's, some are in the hidden place, some are in public, virtually impossible to guard against, your several heir, these princesses and prince, was removed by these influences, therefore you under the grief and indignation, will go to the capital to request reinforcements.” 但曹正也不由提醒道:“国主,但即使如此,刑天教在玄武国的势力却更大,有些是在暗处,有些是在明处,防不胜防,您的几个子嗣,那些公主和王子,也都是被这些势力先后除掉,所以您才会在悲愤之下,上京求援。” Si word hears, repeatedly nod. 司言听闻,频频点头。 Cao positive/correct also said: „Punishment Catholicism smokes the day in the power and influence of this eastern earth, even if the king monarch sovereign you have chosen to submit, but punishment Catholicism actually still did not press hard on to you, wants to kill you, the stratagem seizes the strength of this country, if not the boost of my profound Yin Pope, your landscape does not save, some time past, big Protector is also seriously injured time.” 曹正又道:“刑天教在这东土的权势熏天,即使国主您已经选择臣服,但刑天教却仍旧对您不不紧逼,想杀了您,谋夺这国之力,若非我玄阴教宗的助力,您的江山早已不存,前些时候,大护法还受过一次重伤。” Si word the moment, then took out the compounded drug that refine from the universe bag suddenly, said: „You give big Protector, if common internal injury, several days later recoverable.” 司言顿然了片刻,然后从乾坤袋里取出一枚自己炼制的丹药,道:“你去给大护法,若是寻常内伤,过几天就可痊愈。” „Thank the king monarch sovereign.” “感谢国主。” However Si word also said with amazement: „Then other three countries, punishment Catholicism has not started to them.” 然而司言却又不由惊讶道:“那么其余三国呢,刑天教就没有对他们下手么。” „Other three countries underwent the turbulence, now is steady, but the king monarch sovereigns of three countries', have actually changed players.” “其余三国经历了动荡,如今已经平稳,但三国的国主,却已经换人了。” „Changed players?” Si word quite being astonished different way. “换人了？”司言颇为讶异道。 „Yes, now the king monarch sovereigns of these three countries', are three sons who the punishment Catholicism palm teaches, the king monarch sovereign, only had your here one person alone cannot save the situation.” “是啊,如今这三国的国主,乃是刑天教掌教的三个儿子,国主,只剩下您在这里独木难支了。” Si word hesitated the moment, sighs with emotion with a smile: „This punishment Catholicism actually somewhat skill.” 司言沉吟了片刻,笑着感慨道:“这刑天教倒是有几分本事。” „The palm of punishment Catholicism teaches, is one of the present age youngest person gods, the rumor, he cultivates a person of god incessantly, he even obtained a jade board that had the god law, has practiced half god boundary.” Cao positive/correct tune as if had timidly some in this time however, „king monarch sovereign, the punishment Catholicism palm teaches, the punishment reveres, he is the heir of god!” “刑天教的掌教,可是当世最年轻的人神之一,传言,他不止是修炼到了人神,他甚至得到了一块有成神法的玉板,已经修炼到了半步神境。”曹正的腔调在此时仿佛有了些怯然,“国主,刑天教掌教,刑尊,他可是神的子嗣啊！”
