Hong An island, Grasping Gold Palace. 洪安岛,持金宫。 Above Main Hall, sits well the white clothing man who a reputation is pulling a hair bun, at this time is selecting the eyebrow to look in the hand letter. 大殿之上,端坐着一名头挽道髻的白衣男子,此时正挑眉看着手中书信。 His complexion is delicate, is only the bridge of the nose eagle hook, both eyes divine light is deep, even if the figure is thin and small, actually also supports the figure exceptionally straightly. 他脸色清秀苍白,只是鼻梁鹰钩,双目神光湛然,纵然身形瘦小,却也把身形挺得异常笔直。 This person of precisely Surpassing Sublime True Temple True Disciple Shen Minggu, he snort/hum, in letter the hand threw to be on record above several, said with a sneer: „This Xu Cuo ability is bad, making one to seize, actually wants me to go to him to attend to this pulpy matter, is really absurd.” 此人正是崇越真观真传弟子沈鸣孤,他哼了一声,将手中书信扔在案几之上,冷笑道:“这徐错本领不济,叫人擒去,却要我去给他料理这稀烂事,真是岂有此理。” What sits below head is one is longer much the eyebrow big nose, cultivator of body fat waist circle, this is his same sect Junior Brother Shen Cong. He sees Shen Guming seems quite does not bear, is busy at saying: „After Xu family several Elder know this matter, has inquired, asking Senior Brother to consider prudently.” 坐在下首的乃是一名长得短眉大鼻,体胖腰圆的修士,这是他的同门师弟沈聪。他见沈孤鸣好似对此颇为不耐,忙说道:“徐氏几个长老得知此事后,已来过问,请师兄慎重斟酌。” Shen Minggu disdains to smile, said: „This Zhang Yan meets in me, if I do not go, feared that was they must say me to see somebody in danger and do nothing, deliberately killed same sect?” 沈鸣孤不屑一笑,道:“这张衍约战于我,我若是不去,怕是他们就要说我见死不救,刻意害死同门了吧？” Shen Cong asked carefully: „That is Senior Brother goes or does not go?” 沈聪小心问道:“那师兄是去还是不去？” Shen Minggu looked down letter, the corners of the mouth floating off chuckle, said: „My these date and time have met Southern Flower Sect and High Sky Sect True Disciple, is mediocre, when I slightly edits a book one, you send to with that Zhang Yan, I must have a look at Azure Ocean Sect disciple to have what extraordinary place but actually.” 沈鸣孤低头看了看书信,嘴角浮起轻笑,道:“我这些时日来会过南华派和太昊派的真传弟子,也不过如此而已,我稍时修书一封,你送去拿给那张衍,我倒要看看溟沧派弟子有何了不起的地方。” Shen Cong sought information: „3000 drops of Ninth Sunflower Water Essence that...... Zhang Yan demanded whether can take?” 沈聪征询道:“那……张衍索要的三千滴壬葵水精是否要带上？” Shen Minggu Great Hand wields, said: „Belt! Xu Cuo is willing, me then to take to him, so as to avoid Xu family said me to harbor ulterior motives, do you also fear them also?” 沈鸣孤大手一挥,道:“带！徐错愿意给,那我便给他带上,免得徐氏说我别有用心,难道你还怕他们还不起么？” Shen Cong thinks, said: „Hears this person and Daoist Tao disciple gathers now in one, few days ago I and others grasped that Shen Yan, Senior Brother this went, only feared that has the trap.” 沈聪想了想,又道:“听闻此人与陶真人门下如今聚在一处,前些日子我等抓了那审严,师兄此去,只怕是有陷阱。” Shen Minggu does not care muddily said: „Junior Brother considered thoroughly, in the letter/believes explains, makes me to meet with before Ox Horns Island, this island is my Surpassing Sublime True Temple boundary, feared that what mystery they do make to be inadequate?” 沈鸣孤浑不在意地说道:“师弟多虑了,信上说得明白,约我在牛角岛前会面,此岛乃是我崇越真观的地界,难道还怕他们弄什么玄虚不成？” Shen Cong thinks carefully, thought is more careful, is impossible to have what accident/surprise. 沈聪仔细一想,觉得只要小心一些,也不可能有什么意外。 However in the meantime, his is actually smudging dazzling scarlet color flies into the palace tally, flies toward the palace. 然而就在此时,却他有一封涂抹着刺目猩红色彩的符信飞入宫中,直往殿上飞来。 Expression calm Shen Minggu looked at one, the look actually changes, is busy at putting out a hand to grasp, will take tally in the hand. The facial color concentrates important place to disassemble it, takes out the letter paper to shake off looks, his brow wrinkle, immediately stretch/leisurely open/start. After looking, his both eyes emit light, stands up suddenly, said: „Divine intervention, divine intervention! It seems like I must return at once Mountain Sect / Gate!” 原本表情沉稳的沈鸣孤看了一眼,神色却为之一变,忙伸手一抓,将符信拿在手中。面色凝重地将其拆开,取出信纸抖开一看,他眉头一皱,随即舒开。看完之后,他双目生光,霍然站起,道:“天意,天意！看来我需速回山门了！” Shen Cong one startled, is following whole face anxious standing up said: „Did Senior Brother, actually have what matter?” This smudges scarlet tally is not ordinary letter, will be Surpassing Sublime True Temple in sect has the extremely urgent matter to send out. 沈聪一惊,也是跟着满脸紧张的站起道:“师兄,究竟发生了何事？”这涂抹上猩红色的符信并非普通书信,乃是崇越真观门中出了极为紧急之事才会发出。 Shen Minggu washes one's hands of shakes, this letter paper then became place detritus, laughs saying: „The Elder Xu Breakthrough failure, millennium cultivation base, are destroyed in a moment forcefully, now had died, but in his hand leaving behind Yin Slaughtering Blade the three treasures must select the host in 3rd Generation disciple in addition, is really the day helps me, Xu Cuo is not, asked that in sect also who can contend with me?” 沈鸣孤抖手一震,这信纸便成了一地碎屑,哈哈大笑道:“徐长老强行破境失败,千年修为,毁于一旦,如今已然身故,只是他手中留下的本门三宝之一的阴戮刀则需在三代弟子中另择寄主,真是天助我也,徐错不在,试问门中还有谁可与我相争？” Shen Cong hearing this, is two illumination, hears to be excited, some little time, he realized suddenly, small sound said: „The meaning of Senior Brother is...... Xu Cuo becomes him to go, didn't use the manages?” 沈聪闻言,也是两眼发光,听得激动起来,好一会儿,他才猛然醒觉,小声道:“师兄的意思是……徐错就任他去,不用去管了？” Shen Minggu beckons with the hand, said: „No, how could it not be does that fall the person pretext? Not only need go, but must go quickly.” He remembered anything suddenly, asked: „Hears that Zhang Yan and Tao Zhenhong disciple in one?” 沈鸣孤一摆手,道:“不,那岂非落人口实？不但要去,还要去得快。”他突然想起了什么,问道:“听闻那张衍和陶真宏的门人在一处？” The Shen Cong nod said: „Right.” 沈聪点头道:“对。” Shen Minggu referred to him, said: „Good, this matter you kiss, not only need take that 3000 drops of Ninth Sunflower Water Essence, Shen Yan that grasps also one and puts, in brief we must cast aside clean this matter, did not call Xu family to catch the handle,......” 沈鸣孤指了指他,道:“好,此事你亲去一趟,不但要带上那三千滴壬葵水精,还有抓来的审严也一并放回去,总之我们要撇干净此事,不叫徐氏抓到把柄,还有……” His vision brilliant looks at Shen Cong, said: „You go to time, might as well suggested that Zhang Yan, making him detain Xu Cuo on several th, do not put anxiously, but do not leave behind what handle.” 他目光灼灼地看着沈聪,道:“你去的时候,不妨暗示那张衍,让他把徐错多扣留几日,不要急着放回来,但你不要留下什么把柄。” Shen Cong nods, looked at this matter bursting with life Shen Minggu, stuffy sound said: „Is only Senior Brother does not go to battle, perhaps this matter will bother to your reputation, will make others think that you feared that Zhang Yan.” 沈聪点了点头,看了一眼此事神采奕奕的沈鸣孤,闷声道:“只是师兄不去赴战,此事会或许对你名声有累,会让他人以为你怕了那张衍。” Shen Minggu laughs at one, said: „Comes compared with Yin Slaughtering Blade, what this trivial reputation was considered as, in the future will find the opportunity also to come back again is . Moreover, the day of Tao Zhenhong Sect-Founding in January, immortal mansion was born at the appointed time, if I had Yin Slaughtering Blade to assist, what worried that the important matter was inadequate? As for other all things, gives me first to throw entirely in one side.” 沈鸣孤嗤笑一声,道:“比起阴戮刀来,这区区名声又算得了什么,日后再找机会还回来再是,况且,陶真宏开派之日就在元月,届时仙府出世,我若有阴戮刀相助,又何愁大事不成？至于其余诸事,统统给我先抛在一边。” Shen Cong always admires his Senior Brother, at this time loudly said: „Senior Brother you felt relieved that you completely may return / rotate Mountain Sect / Gate, this matter give me to handle.” 沈聪一向敬佩他这位师兄,此时大声道:“师兄你放心吧,你尽可回转山门,此事交给我来处置。” Shen Minggu is looking at him, said solemnly: „Remember, few speeches, are much courteous, at this moment do not create side issues.” 沈鸣孤望着他,沉声道:“记住,少说话,多谦恭,此时此刻不要横生枝节。” Shen Cong heavily / one after another nods, later cups one hand in the other across the chest, said: „Senior Brother, my arranged.” 沈聪重重点头,随后一拱手,道:“师兄,我这就去安排了。” Shen Minggu waves, said: „Goes.” 沈鸣孤一挥手,道:“去吧。” Shen Cong has Main Hall, goes back to make the arrangement slightly, raised Shen Yan to come out the personnel packed in bags, took the water of 3000 drops of ninth stem sunflower, but thinks, he took thousand drops to come out. 沈聪出得大殿,回去稍作安排,提了审严出来用人袋装了,又去取了三千滴壬葵之水,只是想了想,他又多取了千滴出来。 Afterward built escape light to have the Hong An island, came toward Ox Horns Island at a moderate pace, two islands could not be distanced remote of thousand li (500 km), less than half double-hour, he then saw more than 400 zhang (3.33 m) big Sea Boat to span above the sea level, on had a light brilliance to cover the boat body. 随后架起遁光出了洪安岛,不紧不慢往牛角岛而来,两岛相距不过千里之遥,半个时辰不到,他便见一艘四百余丈长的大海舟横亘在海面之上,上有一层薄薄光焰覆盖舟身。 In his heart is also surprised, so big Sea Boat he is also first sight, no wonder this Zhang Yan so felt relieved that the bold period of five days here, was then surrounded, on this ship restrictive seal Nascent Soul Daoist still not necessarily can break even for a short time. 他心中也是惊讶,如此大的海舟他也是第一次见到,难怪这张衍如此放心大胆的候在这里,便是遭人围堵,这船上禁制就算元婴真人一时半刻也未必破得进去。 Before boat, he keeps firmly in mind that Shen Minggu injunction, does not dare to be extremely dissolute, loudly said: „Below Shen Cong, is Surpassing Sublime True Temple disciple, presents the life of my family Senior Brother Shen Minggu, comes this to pay a visit Fellow Daoist Zhang especially.” 到了舟前,他牢记沈鸣孤的嘱咐,不敢太过放肆,大声道:“在下沈聪,乃是崇越真观弟子,奉我家师兄沈鸣孤之命,特来此拜见张道友。” Above Sea Boat has a clear and bright sound to transmit: „Originally is Fellow Daoist Shen, please enter Treasure Pavilion to see.” 海舟之上有一个清朗声音传来:“原来是沈道友,请入宝阁一见。” The voice falls, above this Sea Boat the brilliance disappears, restrictive seal then shed. 话音落下,这海舟之上光焰一消,禁制便褪了下去。 Shen Cong saw, calms down, later flies toward that sound whence, after entering Treasure Pavilion, then the appearance rough and work-soiled man goes forward, evil report Evil Qi said: „honored guest please along with small toward here.” 沈聪见了,定了定神,随后往那声音来处飞去,入了宝阁之后,便有一面目粗黑的男子上前,恶声恶气地说道:“尊客请随小的往这边来。” Shen Cong slightly knits the brows, mused: „This Zhang Yan Sea Boat is extremely actually lordly, several tens of thousands Spirit Shellfish feared that was also said toward few, wants also to see this Fellow Daoist Zhang is extremely powerful and wealthy, perhaps was Azure Ocean Sect in sect Aristocratic Family disciple, but how was servant actually the so thick air/Qi?” 沈聪略一皱眉,暗想:“这张衍的海舟倒是极有气派,数万灵贝怕是也是往少里说,想见得这位张道友也是极为豪富,说不定是溟沧派门中世家弟子,可怎么身边的仆役却是这般粗气？” He follows Zhang Pan to arrive at the inner courtyard, turned several to turn along the winding corridor, went to a leaning hall, the front had the bamboo curtain blocking together, Zhang Pan stopped the footsteps, bends the waist, loudly said: „Master, that honored guest brought.” 他一路跟着张盘来到内院,又沿着回廊拐了几拐,来到一处偏厅,前方有一道竹帘遮挡,张盘停了脚步,弯了弯腰,大声道:“老爷,那尊客带来了。” Afterward as soon as he raises the bamboo curtain, said: „honored guest may from entering.” 随后他一掀竹帘,道:“尊客可自入内。” Shen Cong one step strides in toward, sees this inner room empty, has the thing ornaments, only the opposite jade collapses, sits cross-legged to sit look fine-looking young daoist, he first was approved one secretly „good look”, later went forward to bow said: „Below Shen Cong, has seen Fellow Daoist.” 沈聪一步往里跨入,见这间内室空空荡荡,别有物件摆设,只对面有一玉塌,盘膝坐着一名相貌英挺的年轻道人,他先是暗赞了一声“好相貌”,随后上前稽首道:“在下沈聪,见过道友了。” Zhang Yan that sharp vision walked on him, later said with a smile pale: „Shen Minggu Fellow Daoist why don't come?” 张衍那犀利目光在他身上走了一圈,随后淡笑道:“沈鸣孤道友为何自己不来？” Shen Cong compensates to say with a smile: „Senior Brother Shen has the important matter to handle, for a while cannot pull out the body, Fellow Daoist do not blame, but in the Fellow Daoist letter/believes said, is Senior Brother Xu the thing of buying freedom, I have all brought now.” 沈聪赔笑道:“沈师兄有要事处置,一时抽不得身,道友勿怪,不过道友信中所说,为徐师兄的赎身之物,我如今已俱都带来。” He puts out a hand into the sleeve, took water pockets of three palm sizes to come out, and proceeded to deliver. 他伸手入袖,取了三只一掌大小的水囊出来,并往前一送。 Zhang Yan puts out a hand a move, these three water pockets fall toward the table on, he took one to get up, pull Kaisai distinguished slightly, was Ninth Sunflower Water Essence is indeed unmistakable, in the heart was astonished unconsciously. 张衍伸手一招,这三只水囊往桌案上一落,他取了一只起来,拔开塞盖略微一辨,的确是壬葵水精无误,心中不觉讶异。 He had not thought of this water so succeeding in obtaining easily, but also saved and that Shen Minggu has made a meaning, the opposite party this act, made him somewhat unable to understand actually. 他原本并没有想到此水如此轻易的到手,还存了和那沈鸣孤做过一场的意思,对方此举,倒是令他有些看不懂了。 In his surface maintains composure, covers that stopper, put slowly, smiled saying with a smile: „Fellow Daoist Shen such quick sends this thing, is significant in the in sect friendship with Fellow Daoist Xu?” 只是他面上不动声色,将那瓶塞盖上,缓缓放了下来,笑了笑道:“沈道友如此之快就将此物送来,想必和徐道友在门中交情匪浅吧？” The Shen Cong spirit inspires, lifted lifting, looked that said to Zhang Yan: „slow, Shen two surnames, although is the relatives, but my Senior Brother and Senior Brother Xu are the communication are not many.” 沈聪精神一振,把头抬了抬,看向张衍道:“徐,沈二姓虽说皆是亲眷,但我师兄和徐师兄却是来往不多。” The Zhang Yan vision flashed slightly, this words, if said Xu Cuo and Shen Minggu not big friendship visibly, even also possibly relates bad. 张衍目光微微闪动了一下,此话等若是明着说徐错和沈鸣孤并没有多大交情,甚至还可能关系糟糕。 Shen Cong coughed, took a person bag to come out from the sleeve, untied it, reveals a remaining unconscious young man to come out. He bows said: „Recently because of misunderstanding, Senior Brother seized Daoist Tao disciple Fellow Daoist, hears Fellow Daoist Zhang and Daoist Tao disciple is on good terms. Assigns me by my family Senior Brother also one and sends specially this position, only asked Fellow Daoist to take care of my Senior Brother Xu well, do not make him have any damage is.” 沈聪咳嗽了一声,又从袖中取了一只人袋出来,将其解开,露出一个昏迷不醒的年轻男子出来。他稽首道:“前次因为误会,师兄将陶真人门下一位道友捉了,听闻张道友与陶真人门下交好。是以我家师兄特意命我将此位也一并送来,只求道友好好看顾我那徐师兄,不要让他有任何损伤才是。” Un? 嗯？ The Zhang Yan facial expression were many several points of subtle expression to come out. What person is he? Where will unable to listen to the meaning in Shen Cong these words. 张衍脸容多了几分微妙的表情出来。他是何等样人？哪里会听不出沈聪这句话中的意思。 If the opposite party really want to redeem Xu Cuo, why must to say again what wants him „to consider well” and so on spoken language? Clearly is suggested that he keeps here this Xu Cuo, does not need anxiously bleeding off. 对方要是真想将徐错赎回去,何须再说什么要他“好好照顾”之类的言语？分明是暗示他将这徐错留在这里,不必急着放走。 Although he is not clear true whole story, but can also think, this cannot come inevitably this related with Shen Minggu, perhaps was in sect had any important matter, the opposite party did not want that Xu Cuo to return to Mountain Sect / Gate at this time. 他虽然不清楚其中真正原委,不过也能想到,这必然和沈鸣孤不能来此有关,说不定是门中发生了什么重要事情,对方不愿意那徐错此时返回山门。 He smiles secretly, so also good, this Xu Cuo killed Dai Huan, he originally not its plan of bleeding off, but also is saving with that Shen Minggu one fight of thoughts, the thing that since now want takes, that then had nothing to do with oneself, gives Guo Lie and the others to be able this person and that Shen Yan, calculated also their favor. 他暗自笑了笑,如此也好,这徐错杀了戴环,他本来也没有将其放走的打算,还存着与那沈鸣孤一斗的心思,如今既然自己要的东西拿到了手,那接下来就与自己无关了,将此人和那审严交给郭烈等人便可,也算还了他们一个人情。 However, since the opposite party is not willing to meet Xu Cuo, he cannot such simple letting off opposite party. 不过,既然对方不愿意将徐错接回,他就不能这么简单的放过对方。 Therefore he feigns ignorance, makes a heartfelt sigh with emotion appearance, sighed: „Senior Brother Shen is really the letter/believes person, in view of this, Fellow Daoist may in this waiting a bit moment, I go to the life servant to go Fellow Daoist Xu to meet, is met by you is.” 所以他故作不知,做出一副由衷感慨的模样,叹道:“沈师兄果然是信人,既如此,道友可在此稍待片刻,我去命下人去将徐道友接来,由你接回去便是。” „This......” “这……” The Shen Cong complexion slightly changes, this can't Zhang Yan understand in his words the meaning? 沈聪脸色微微一变,难道这张衍听不懂他话中之意么？ In his heart one anxious, raised the head, to is Zhang Yan has the vision of profound meaning, is first startled, later in the heart suddenly, criticized one, forwarded two steps, took a jade bottle coming out swayed to be on record on several from the sleeve, later withdrew two steps, did not say that what this was, but stood there keeps silent. 他心中一急,一抬头,对上的却是张衍别有深意的目光,先是一怔,随后心中恍然,暗骂了一句,向前走了两步,又从袖中取了一只玉瓶出来摆在案几上,随后退后了两步,也不说这是何物,只是站在那里默不作声。 The Zhang Yan eye narrows the eyes slightly, silent moment, he smiles, said: „Fellow Daoist Shen, I remember suddenly, this Fellow Daoist Xu as if killed a Daoist Tao disciple, his several same sect are really the grief and indignation, if I put Fellow Daoist Xu, must be stopped by them, feared that cannot turn back as you like, but I am not do not defend the person of Cigna, these matters I am first receiving, in the future Shen Minggu Fellow Daoist will have the free time, may come here to bring back.” 张衍眼睛微微一眯,沉默了片刻,他才轻轻一笑,道:“沈道友,我忽然想起,这位徐道友似乎杀了陶真人的一位门人,他几位同门甚是悲愤,我若放了徐道友,必会遭他们阻拦,怕是不能随你折返了,不过我也不是不守信诺之人,这些物事我先收着,日后沈鸣孤道友何时有暇,可来我这里取回。” Shen Cong could not bear and criticized one, in the heart is actually grows the one breath, in the surface makes a regrettable appearance, said with a sigh: „That is really the day of failing person hopes, this matter no one has expected beforehand, it seems like below , only then crosses my Senior Brother reply, then did to haggle over.” 沈聪忍不住又暗骂了一句,心中却是长出一口气,面上作出一副遗憾模样,叹气道:“那真是天不遂人愿,此事谁也未曾事先料到,看来在下只有回禀过我那师兄,然后再作计较了。” ( to be continued ) (未完待续)
