After twodays, Eastern SeaScarlet Wind Cliff.
两日之后,东海赤风岩。Is about 30 ten feetsodd/surpluszhang (3.33 m)Sea Boatanchoringsea, on the sailusesto traceonethreefullphoenixes that fluttersto fly, thisis a Three Suns IsletYin Clanclanwalks the marinebanner, Zhang Yanstandsin the bow, sees the skyclearlysuch asto wash, the frontwaveturnswells up, the flyingfish divewave, 32birdssoundto plunderonce for a whilelowly, heartstretch/leisurelyShenfang.
一艘长约30丈余丈的海舟停泊海上,帆上用描有一只正振翅而飞的三足神鸟,此乃是三阳屿殷氏一族行走海上的旗号,张衍站在船头,见天空澄澈如洗,前方碧浪翻涌,飞鱼跃波,时不时有三两只禽鸟鸣叫着低掠而过,不由心舒神放。At this time, the backheardrapidsound of footsteps, an appearanceuprightmiddle agewas in chargeto runin a hurry, saidrespectfully: „What does honored guestcalllowly oneto come to haveto tell?”
这时,背后传来一阵急促脚步声,一名模样忠厚的中年管事匆匆跑了上来,恭敬道:“尊客唤小人来可有什么吩咐?”Zhang Yandoes not returnasks: „Whystaysinthis?”张衍头也不回地问道:“为何在此停留?”In the effectivesurfacehesitated, seems the color of feeling embarrassed, explainedsubmissively: „honored guest, your family placeoldmadamehasdescendant of severalold friendold friends to go to the open seareply, theyalsowantonthisshippeer, but alsoaskedhonored guestto await calmly the half day.”
管事面上踌躇了一下,似有为难之色,拱手解释道:“回禀尊客,府上老夫人有几个故交旧友的后人需去外海,他们也要上得此船同行,还请尊客静候半日。”
After saying, inhisfreelyheartdisturbed, is actually not afraid.
说完之后,他尽管心中忐忑,却也并不害怕。Heresulted in the Qiu Guanshiinjunctionbeforehand, so long as such a saying, concerned about the signboard of oldmadame, even if the opposite partysees throughhas the trick, does not get angryimmediately.
他事先得了邱管事的嘱咐,只要这么一说,碍于老夫人的招牌,就算对方识破这其中有猫腻,也不会立刻翻脸。Howeverthis actqueerswithout doubt, butQiu Guanshidoes not know the Zhang Yanorigin, will not considerthatmany, ifknows that heisAzure Ocean SectTrue Disciple, will decidewill not mixcasuallycomes.
但是此举无疑得罪人,只是邱管事并不知晓张衍来历,也就不会考虑那么许多,若是知道他是溟沧派真传弟子,定不会那么随随便便掺乎进来了。Zhang Yanstandstherehas not moved, but why thatis in chargeactuallydoes not know, inexplicableheartstartledfeeling.张衍站在那里没有动,可那名管事却不知道为什么,有一股莫名心惊的感觉。Finallyheonlylistens to the earto hear a lightsound of talking, „onlywaits fortwodouble-hour.”
最后他只听耳边传来一声淡淡语声,“只等两个时辰。”Was in chargethissaying, longrelaxes, archedcupping one hand in the other across the chesthastily, such asignorant/veiledpardonedto draw backgenerally, at this timewas ordinaryjust like the prostration, is pale, trembledto pull outwhitePacato wipe the beads of sweat on forehead.
管事得了这话,长长松了一口气,连忙拱了拱手,如蒙大赦一般退了下去,此时宛如虚脱一般,脸色苍白,哆哆嗦嗦掏出白帕擦了擦额头上的汗珠。Hesmiled bitterly, stood the stern, the neckis waiting there extends, in the hearthopes that anythingLady Shanmustarrivesurelyearlier.
他苦笑了一声,又站到了船尾,在那里伸长着脖子等着,心中期盼那什么单娘子千万要早点到来。Hisluckis finally good, after a double-hour, the horizonpresentsglowing redpink cloudsby far, abovestands more than 50just like the Divine Immortalfamilycompanionyoungmen and women.
总算他运气不错,一个时辰之后,天边远远出现一朵红彤彤的彩云,上面站有五十余名宛如神仙眷侣般的年轻男女。Thisline of ostentationsare enormous, the frontFlies sky-highfragrantcar(riage)clears the way, the left and rightmaidservanthand heldmirrorboxbasket of flowers, middlecrowds aroundcloud couch, umbrellaLuowhite muslinis obstructing the tent/account, golden bellhangs the corner/horn, hiddensees a femalewonderfulgracefulphysique.
这一行人排场极大,前方飞天香车开道,左右两侧侍女手提镜盒花篮,当中簇拥着一只云榻,伞罗白纱遮帐,金铃挂角,其中隐见一女子妙曼身姿。
In chargesighed: „HearingLady ShanisRemote Smoke SectSect Masterdisciple, is really out of the ordinary.”
管事不禁感叹:“听闻单娘子为蓬远派掌门弟子,果然非同凡响。”Whenthatred cloudto the stern, hedrew backhastilyagainbackwardseveralsteps, bows saying: „Lady Shan, below Jingstretch/leisurely, presents the life of second son, had waited there for some time.”
待那朵彤云到了船尾,他连忙再向后退了几步,躬身道:“单娘子,在下景舒,奉二郎之命,早已等候多时。”
A delicate-lookingmaidgatheredthatgauzegreetingto whisperlow voiceseveral, therefemaleas ifsaid anything, the maidnods, standsto saycrisp: „Mistresshas the life......”
一名面容清秀的婢女凑到那纱帐前小声低语了几句,那里女子似乎说了一声什么,那婢女点了点头,站出来脆生生说道:“娘子有命……”„Slow!”
“慢!”In the meantime, stood a youngcultivatorstationonspindle-shapedmagical tool, hefirstin the femaletothatcurtaintent/accountcupped one hand in the other across the chest, latersaidtothatSteward Jing: „Lady Shanis pure, does not moisten the contamination, Iaskedyou, on your boatmayoncesweepsprinklescleanly, canhave leisure the mixedpersonto mix in?”
就在此时,有一名站在一只梭形法器上的年轻修士站了出来,他先对那帘帐中女子一拱手,随后对那景管事道:“单娘子冰清玉洁,沾不得污秽,我来问你,你这舟上可曾扫洒干净,可有闲杂之人混入?”Thispersonal nameisYang Bingqing, isunder a Eastern SeaMonster KingplaceHanger-on, alwaysdoes not copewithYin Zhijun, heknows that this flourishingsecond son'spositionin the clannot, said that must come outwithSea Boat, thinkshewas boasting, nowseeing is believing, canask for the Lady Shanfavor, heunavoidablyis uncomfortable, thereforejumpsto find faultimmediately, buthebut actuallyalsosaidin the principle, thereforethataccompanyingmaidservantwas onlywhitehisoneeyes, has not stopped.
此人名为杨秉清,是东海一位妖王座下门客,与殷治君向来不对付,他知道这殷二郎在族中地位并不如何,说是要拿一艘海舟出来,原本还以为他在吹嘘,如今眼见为实,得以讨了单娘子欢心,他心里难免不舒服,所以立刻跳出来挑刺,不过他说得倒也在理,因此那随行侍女只是白了他一眼,不曾阻拦。InSteward Jingheartonestartled, hurriedly said: „Thishonored guest, onthisshipexcept forseveraljanitorboatmen, not others.”景管事心中一惊,忙道:“这位尊客,此船上除了几名杂役船夫,并无他人。”
The Yang Bingqingfaint smilesaid: „Has, is notyoudecides, mustdispatch the personto search.”杨秉清似笑非笑地说道:“到底有没有,不是你说了算的,需遣人去搜检一番。”Steward Jingwhenexplained things, at this time, in the curtaintent/accountspread a gentlesound: „flourishingsecond sonthis timehelpedyour servantbe busy, your servant must givehimand a Yin Familyface, wasok.”景管事正待分说,这时,帘帐中传出一个轻柔的声音:“殷二郎此回帮了奴家大忙,奴家也要给他和殷家一点脸面,还是算了吧。”Yang Bingqing must sayagaintwo, thatcloud couchhad lifted, on the paviliontoward the shipwalked, hesnort/hum.杨秉清还要再说上两句,那云榻已经抬了起来,往船上楼阁里走去了,他不由哼了一声。Steward Jingscratchedsecretly the cold sweat, saidluckily.景管事暗暗擦了把冷汗,直呼侥幸。„many thanksSenior Brother Yangescorts, buttoSea Boatabove, my familyMistresshadmeand other servantsto look, Senior Brother Yangpleasereturn.”
“多谢杨师兄一路护送,不过到了海舟之上,我家娘子自有我等下人照顾,杨师兄就请回吧。”
After walkingtwo, thatdelicatemaidservantblockssuddenlyin front ofYang Bingqing, the meaning of faceseeing a visitor out.
走了两步之后,那清秀侍女突然拦在杨秉清面前,一脸送客之意。On the Yang Bingqingface the happy expressionis invariable, saidsubmissively: „YangwishedLady Shanbon voyage.”杨秉清脸上笑意不变,拱手道:“那杨某就祝单娘子一路顺风了。”
The maidtohiscurtsies, thenno longerrespondshim, turned around into the boat the garret.
那婢女对他万福一礼,便不再搭理他,转身入了舟中阁楼。Yang Bingqingsaw with own eyes that the sea boatdrives awayslowly, graduallychangedin the line of sightmakes a sunspotgloomy, the complexion, exchanged a gloomytone, said: „Snort, Shan Huizhen, youkeep aloofnow, several days later, waited forMonster King Qiaoto takeyourPrimordial Yin, will then transferyougrantsme, when the time comesImusthave a lookbut actually, howyoufawned and obsequiousedbeforeme.”杨秉清眼见海船慢慢开走,逐渐在视线中变作一个黑点,脸色不由阴沉了下来,换上了一副阴森语气,道:“哼,单慧真,你现在高高在上,再过几日,等乔妖王取了你的元阴,便会将你转赐予我,到时候我倒要看看,你在我面前是如何摇尾乞怜的。”Hehahalaughed wildlyone, in the mouthreadsecret art, todayonefinger/refers, a short-swordthenchanged to a white lightto soar to the heavensto fly.
他哈哈狂笑一声,口中念了一句法诀,向天一指,一把短剑便化作一道白光冲天而飞。Helooked atseveralagainbitterly, thensteps onmagical toolto turn aroundto depart.
他再恨恨看了几眼,便踩着法器转身离去。When various hanginghousehold utensils, after arranging the tableprepare, Lady Shanthenuncovered the gauzetent/account, on the cotsat wellto the pavilion.
待各类挂饰器皿,陈设桌案布置好后,单娘子便揭了纱帐,到了阁内榻上坐定。Herappearanceis extremely beautiful, the powdercheekblackeyebrow, the fleshsuch as the porcelainlike the jade, the cherry lipsjust likered, althoughsomewhatflatters the colorfulposture, but the pupil is very incorruptible, at this momentsaidin a soft voice: „Xiu'er, Steward Jingseemed likesomewords to sayjust now,youwent to come inhim.”
她面貌极美,粉腮黛眉,肌肤如瓷如玉,樱唇犹如丹朱一点,虽说有些媚艳之姿,但眸子却很清正,此刻轻声说道:“秀儿,适才景管事似乎有话要说,你去把他请进来。”„Yes, Mistress.”
“是,娘子。”
The maidsturn around, before long, thenbroughtSteward Jing.
婢女转身出去,不一会儿,便将景管事带了进来。
After the roomstood firm, Steward Jingthenlettertakes out, both hands presented that said: „ Thisis the second sonassigns/lifemeto giveLady Shan.
到了房中站定后,景管事便把一封书信取出,双手呈递了上来,道:“这是二郎命我交给单娘子的。
After the maidsreceived, hands overin the Lady Shanhand, sheread, soft voicesaid: „flourishingsecond sonwas polite, your servantusestaking advantage ofthisYin FamilySea Boat, how dare does the posing asmaster, drive away the Yin Familyguest? In chargealsopleasefeel relieved, your servantnotthatand otherimpolitearbitrarypeople.”
婢女接过后交到单娘子手中,她翻看了一遍,温声说道:“殷二郎客气了,奴家只是借这艘殷家海舟一用,又怎敢自居主人,驱赶殷家的客人?管事还请放心,奴家并非那等无礼蛮横之人。”Steward Jingresulted inthissaying, isfelt relievedtruly, to be honest, when Qiu Guanshiexhortshimto managethis matterhethenknows, iftwosideshad the conflict, is unjustly discreditedorwantshimto carry, nowhas not settledfinally, enduredthisone month is also OK, bows a ritualtowardLady Shan, drew backslowly.景管事得了这话,才算真正放下心来,说实话,邱管事嘱咐他操持此事时他便知道,若是两方起了冲突,黑锅还是要他来背,现在总算没了事,熬过这一月也就可以了,朝着单娘子躬身一礼,缓缓退了出去。
The maidservantlooks, looked atLady Shan, laterpursued, inout of the doordoes not know that saidanythingwiththatSteward Jing, before long, herreturn / rotatecomespanting in indignation. Not indignationsaid: „Mistress, flourishing the second sonhandled mattersverytypically, reached an agreementonobviouslybeforehandthisSea Boatistaking advantage of meand others, unexpectedlyalsosomepeoplecamewithriding a boat.”
那侍女瞧了一眼,又看了看单娘子,随后追了出去,在门外叽叽呱呱也不知道和那景管事说了什么,不一会儿,她气呼呼地回转过来。不忿道:“娘子,殷二郎办事好不地道,明明事先说好这海舟上乃是借与我等,居然还有人来同乘一舟。”Lady Shansmiles, said: „Inthatletter/believessaid that whatthiswasflourishingMasterguest, hisYin Zhijunwas not goodto shirk, but alsoaskedmewiththatguestdo not feel embarrassed, Ithought that thisletter/believesdecidedis nothewrites, such aswas the Yin Familysecond son, howis willingmy humble homefaceto cometo explain thingswithme?”单娘子莞尔一笑,道:“那信中说什么这位是殷老爷的客人,他殷治君也不好推脱,还求我不要与那位客人为难,我看此信定不是他写得,如是殷家二郎,岂肯舍下这张脸面来与我分说?”Maidservantapproves: „Mistresssaidright, the Yin Familysecond sonmostwants the face, was wronged and driven to deathwas not willingMistressto despisehim, according toXiu'erlooked, whicheffectivechildnephewonthisship the person of carryinguncertainwasYin Family.”
侍女赞同道:“娘子说得没错,殷家二郎最要脸面,便是屈死了也不愿娘子小看他,依秀儿看,这船上所载之人不定是殷家哪个管事的子侄。”Lady Shansighedgently, said: „Mythistimegoes to seaon a grand scale, takes itselfto directNine Headed Monster Kingas the bait, thisMonster Kingmagic powerexcels, hisfiveClonedo not know that whichthiswill come, even ifIhavemagical treasureto assist, stillerraticallycanto beheadresult inhim, this matteris not suitableinvolves others, Yin Familythatguest, Xiu'eryougreetedone, without the issue, pleasewalkhim,”单娘子轻轻一叹,道:“我此次出海大张旗鼓,是以自身为诱饵把九魁妖王引出来,这妖王法力高强,他的五个分身也不知道今次会来哪一个,就算我有法宝相助,也不定能斩杀得了他,此事不宜牵连他人,殷家那位客人,秀儿你去问候一声,若是没有问题,就将他请走吧,”
A Xiu'ereyeballrevolution, reveals the cunningcolor, said: „Mistressfelt relieved,Xiu'erwill handlesurely.”秀儿眼珠一转,露出狡黠之色,道:“娘子放心,秀儿定会办好。”Lady Shandelicate eyebrowsonepressed, said resolutely: „Xiu'er, youcannotact sloppily, ifthisYin Familyguestispropercultivator, yourgood wordsgoodlanguageto persuadeis.”单娘子秀眉一蹙,正色道:“秀儿,你不可胡来,若这位殷家客人是正经修道人,你好言好语相劝就是。”Xiu'ersaidaccordingly: „Relax, Mistress, Xiu'erhas inquiredjust nowclearlyinSteward Jingthere, thispersonsingleacts alone, accompaniescontinuallyhas not takenone, poorvery much, Igivehimto selectSpirit Shellfishat the worst, if the smart person, will decidewill accept the little darlingto depart, nothing more thanwill tradeSea Boatagain, if not foris willing, Mistressalsoto calculateto dedicate, the life and deathonlylooked at the destiny.”秀儿应声道:“放心吧,娘子,秀儿适才已在景管事那里打听得清楚,这人单人独行,连随从也没有带上一个,寒酸的很,大不了我给他点灵贝,若是聪明人,定会收下乖乖离去,不外再换一艘海舟罢了,若不是肯,娘子也算尽了心,生死只看天命了。”Lady Shansmiles, teased: „My familyXiu'erwas actually sensible.”单娘子轻轻一笑,调侃道:“我家秀儿倒是懂事了许多。”Xiu'erjadefaceonered, said: „FollowingMistresswas long, studied a point.”秀儿玉脸一红,道:“跟着娘子久了,也学了一点。”Lady Shanwavesgently, says with a smile: „Goes.”单娘子轻轻一挥手,笑道:“去吧。”
The Xiu'erluck a ritualdrew back, had/left the garret, seeksSteward Jingto inquire,thenwalkstoward the Zhang Yandwelling, toout of the door, herhighsound said: „Can misterin?”秀儿福了一礼退下,出了阁楼,寻景管事一打听,便往张衍的住处走去,到了门外,她高声道:“先生可在?”
The Zhang Yanclear and brightsoundspreads from, said: „Whatperson outside?”张衍清朗的声音从里传出,道:“什么人在外面?”Xiu'ersaid: „My familyMistressandmisterride a boat, bysending the maidservantcomesto give regards.”秀儿道:“我家娘子与先生同乘一舟,是以派小婢前来问个好。”Zhang Yansaid: „Your familyMistresshad a mind, greetedoneforme.”张衍道:“你家娘子有心了,也代我问候一声。”Xiu'erpurses the lips, said: „Misterwhetherto open the doorsees, somemy familyMistressthingswantmeto take to the mister.”秀儿撅了撅嘴,道:“先生可否开门一见,我家娘子有些东西要我带给先生。”
The front doorcalmlyfromopening, Xiu'ercatches the eyelooks, actuallysees the frontto be away from the bamboo curtain, youngdaoistsitson the cot, cannot see clearly the appearance, shedoes not enter the room, takes out a jadechestto put downfrom the sachet, said: „My familyMistresssaid,thisgoes to the open sea, waves, the undercurrentis turbulent, the misteracceptsthisthing, couldask a safe and secure.”
大门无风自开,秀儿抬眼一瞧,却见前方隔着竹帘,一个年轻道人坐在榻上,也看不清容貌,她也不进屋,就从香囊中取出一只玉匣放下,道:“我家娘子说,此去外海,风高浪急,暗流汹涌,先生且收下此物,说不定能求个平安。”
The word, hercurtsies, thenturns aroundto depart.
言罢,她万福一礼,便转身离去。
When Xiu'erare not manyreturns to the cabin, Lady Shanaskedin a soft voice: „Thispersonhow?”秀儿不多时回到舱房中,单娘子轻声问道:“此人如何?”Xiu'eris a maidservant, cultivation baseIs feeble, notopening the meridians, butexperiencesbyoneselfjudgesopposite partycultivation base, usuallypoursalsolooksextremelyaccurate, butZhang Yancultivation basehighsheis too many, let aloneis away fromonevolume of bamboo curtains, is in front of unable to completely understandhisdepth.秀儿不过是一个侍女,修为低微,还未曾开脉,只是凭借自己经验判断对方修为,平时倒也看得极准,但是张衍修为高过她太多,别说隔着一卷竹帘,便是当着面看不透他的深浅。Howeversheis usually influenced by what one sees and hears, thesecultivation baseprofoundyoungcultivatorwhichare notwith attendants crowding round, the differencehas the ostentationextremely, Zhang Yanis onlyall alone, borrowedYin FamilySea Boatto go to sea, taking for grantedrecognized that thisperson of cultivation basewas not much, thereforesaid: „Mistress, butcommoncultivator, the cultivation baseratio also has not necessarily resulted inXiu'erI, Ihad put downthatthousandSpirit Shellfish, in the spoken languagealsoselectedhisseveral, if he smart person, shouldknow how shoulddo, if stubborn, diesto remain, has an accidentalsono wonderIand others.”
不过她平时耳濡目染,那些修为高深的年轻修士哪一个不是前呼后拥,出入极有排场,张衍只是孤身一人,又是借了殷家的海舟出海,想当然的认定这人修为不怎么样,因此说道:“娘子,不过一个寻常修士罢了,修为还未必比得过秀儿我呢,我已把那一千灵贝放下了,言语中也点了他几句,他若是聪明人,就应该知道该如何做,若是榆木脑袋,死留着不走,出了事也怪不得我等哦。”Sinceiscommoncultivator, Lady Shandoes not care, the nodsaid: „Xiu'er your mattercan complete, ifthis timecancutthatNine Headed Monster Kingsmoothly, respected teacherwill then pass onme**, becomes one of the in sectfourFirst Disciple, at the appointed timeIhad the qualificationsto makeyoucross the threshold.”
既然不过是一个寻常修士,单娘子也就不放在心上了,点头道:“秀儿你这事做得好,此番若是能顺利斩了那九魁妖王,恩师便会传我**,成为门中四大弟子之一,到时我就有资格让你入门了。”Xiu'erhearing thisis very happy, howboth eyesactuallydo not knowonered, kneelingevil ways: „Mistressis goodtoXiu'er, Xiu'erwill repayMistresssurelyat risk of life.”秀儿闻言喜上眉梢,双目却不知怎么一红,跪下道:“还是娘子对秀儿好,秀儿定会拼死报答娘子的。”............
