Zhang Yanrecognizescertainlydirection, after transferringseveral, thenbeforeTreasure Jade House, butmarches into, welcomed was actually notfiveyears ago Steward Wang that saw, butwas a black clothcheongsam, twotempleefflorescencesmiddle-agedscholars.张衍认准方向,转了几圈之后,便到了珍玉楼前,只是步入其中时,迎出来的却并不是五年前所见的王管事,而是一个青布长衫,两鬓霜白的中年文士。SawZhang Yan, hecomes upto bow with hands claspedwith smile on the face, says: „honored guestthiscomes, does not know that whatsettles onmybuilding?”
见了张衍,他面带笑容上来一揖,口中道:“尊客此来,不知是看中敝楼何物啊?”Zhang Yanstrangesay/way: „Herethat wasn't in chargein?”张衍奇道:“此处原先那位管事不在了么?”„honored guestsaysSteward Wang?”
“尊客是说王管事?”
This middle-agedscholarbrowwrinkle, in the visionrevealsto be vigilant the color.
这中年文士眉头一皱,目光中露出警惕之色。Hesized upZhang Yan, previouslythatenthusiasmalsofellseveralpointsslightly, saidstiffly: „Is goodto callhonored guestto know, thispersonis insatiably greedy, hisyounger brotherstolemeto draw a chapter of Tanforeign technology, thinks that Fellow Daoistspurned, nowhas made a getaway, did not know the trace.”
他打量了张衍一番,先前那热情也稍稍降了几分,语气略显生硬道:“好叫尊客知晓,此人贪得无厌,其弟窃取了我汲章谭氏一门外技,以为同道所唾弃,如今早已是逃之夭夭了,不知所踪了。”HeisBright Qicultivation base, cannot see the Zhang Yandepth, hits the given name of Steward Wangold friendsto cometo comebecause of some firstalsopeopleseveraltimesto pick a quarrel, selectsto have the Tanbackgroundwith the spoken languageinfaintly, cannotlet the personto insult.
他不过是明气修为,看不出张衍深浅来,因前几次也有人打着王管事故旧的名号上门前来寻衅,是以言语中隐隐点出自己有谭氏背景,不是可以任人欺辱的。Zhang Yanlistened tothissaying, butsighs with emotionslightly, actuallyunconsciouslyaccidental/surprised.张衍听了这话,只是微微感慨,倒是不觉意外。On the same dayWang Huanwill understand after raising the matter of White Beard Mousesaidin the presence of everyone, hethenexpectssurelywill have such a day.
当日王欢将自己懂得豢养白须鼠之事当众说出后,他便料到必定会有这么一天。It is no doubt that decidingwasthatTancovetsWang Familythismethod, bytaking by force and deceiting.
不用说,定是那谭氏觊觎王家此法,是以巧取豪夺罢了。WithoutDao Lawcultivation base that matches, the law of outletthenunderstandingagainwas, was the young childholds the gold/metal, was hardto preserve, finallydid the bridal clothesfor others.
没有相匹配的道法修为,便是懂得的外道之法再是了得,也不过是小儿持金,难以保全,最后还是为他人做了嫁衣。Heshakes the head, asked: „When does this matter happen?”
他摇了摇头,又问道:“此事发生在何时?”Thismiddle-agedscholarknit the browsto look athisoneeyes, butsawitsis impressive, lookedis notcommonperson, tostillbear the temperto reply: „Alwayshad45years.”
这中年文士皱眉看了他一眼,只是见其气度不凡,一望就不是寻常人物,是以仍耐着性子回答道:“总有四五年了。”Zhang Yannods, no longergoes into seriously, said: „Myherehas a substantial number ofmonsterbird, iscan come upfromDivine Passing Peak, can the shop ownerreceive?”张衍点了点头,不再深究,道:“我此处有为数不少妖禽,乃是从神渡峰上得来,店家可收得?”Speaking of the business, the middle-agedscholarcame the spirit, on the face the smiling faceto turn roundimmediately, said: „Does not know that honored guestbringsmanymonsterbird, mustknowourbuildingnot to make the small business transaction.”
说到生意,中年文士顿时来了精神,脸上笑容复起,道:“不知尊客带来多少妖禽,需知敝楼可是不做小买卖的。”
The Zhang Yansmilesaid: „Actual amountThis Poor Daoistdoes not know, slightlyestimate, roughly more than 700monsterbird.”张衍微笑道:“具体数目贫道也是不知,略略估算,约莫七百余只妖禽吧。”Onlycanonlyseparateto seizeto seizeunlikethatordinarycultivator, on the same dayheswept into thatmonsterbirdTrue Lightin groups, more than 700, without doubtonlyastonishingnumber, ifhisProfound Light Realm cultivators, mustevadeat this momentsome, butnowheisCore Transformationcultivation base, does not need scruplesthese.
与那普通修士只能一只只分开擒捉不同,当日他可是将那妖禽成群成群地扫入真光之中,这七百余只,无疑只个惊人数目,若他此刻还是玄光修士,自是要避忌一些,可如今他乃是化丹修为,自是无需顾忌这些了。„More than 700?”
“七百余?”Beginningthismiddle-agedscholar when is a calmappearance, after listening tothisnumber, actuallyhas a scare, almostthinksoneselfmisunderstood, decidesto look atZhang Yan, could not bearand asked that said: „How many?”
这中年文士初时还是一副镇定模样,听了这数目之后,却是吓了一跳,几乎以为自己听错了,定定看着张衍,忍不住又问了一遍,道:“多少?”Zhang Yansmiles, said: „Are only many.”张衍笑了笑,道:“只多不少。”
The middle-agedscholarrevealsurprisedcolor, the subconsciousnessretrocededtwosteps, decidesto look atZhang Yan, after the moment, hefeels shockedcomes back, lowers the headto think,be hesitant, said: „honored guest, thismonsterbirdnumberis large, Icannot take responsibility, invite the honored guestwaiting a bitmoment, Iasked the masterto comethis.”
中年文士目露惊疑之色,下意识后退了两步,定定看着张衍,片刻后他才惊觉回来,低头想了想,犹豫了一下,道:“尊客,这妖禽数目颇大,鄙人做不了主,请尊客稍待片刻,鄙人去请东家来此。”Zhang Yannodded, saidslightly: „Shop ownerdoes as you please.”张衍微微颌首,道:“店家请便。”
The middle-agedscholarsharplysharplywenttowardinhall, soon, hethenwalkedwithyoungcultivatortogether.
中年文士急急往内堂里去了,不多时,他便与一个年轻修士一起走了出来。ThispersonisProfound Light Realm cultivators, after seeingZhang Yan, the complexionslightlychanges, healsoeagle-eyed, lookedunder the Zhang YannoseholeMist Qiis faint, thenguesses correctlyhimindistinctlyisCore Transformationcultivator, does not immediately dareto neglect, catches upanxiouslyanxiouslyseveralsteps, saidsubmissively: „Below Tan Zhong, drawschapter of Tandisciple, may I askhonored guestyour surname?”
此人乃是玄光修士,见了张衍之后,脸色微微一变,他也是有眼力的,一看张衍鼻窍下方烟气隐隐,便隐约猜出他乃是一名化丹修士,当下不敢怠慢,急急赶上几步,拱手道:“在下谭钟,乃是汲章谭氏门下,敢问尊客贵姓?”Zhang Yansaidlightly: „Below surnamed Zhang, isAzure Ocean Sectdisciple.”张衍淡淡说道:“在下姓张,乃是溟沧派弟子。”Tan Zhongis startledsuddenly, bowsbusily a ritual, nervoussay/way: „Immortalharnesses the common perillanearourbuilding, you honor my humble home, but alsopleaseenter the Yayuanseat of honor.”谭钟猛然吃了一惊,忙又躬身一礼,慌道:“仙驾荏临敝楼,蓬荜生辉,还请入雅苑上座。”Saying, heis then sidewaysto direct.
说着,他便侧身一引。AlthoughheisTandisciple, is the Profound SectAristocratic Familyfamily background, butheis the collateral branchborn, the bloodlines and main familyare separated byreallyfar, andhisaptitudeis not high, after enteringProfound Light Realm, firsteven/includingwasted timedozensyears of light shadow, cultivation basedid not have the little advance, thereforewas lostto guardthispieceto be the new industry.
他虽是谭氏弟子,也算是玄门世家出身,但他乃是旁支庶出,血脉与主家相隔甚远,且他资质不高,入得玄光境之后,一连蹉跎数十年光影,修为了无寸进,因此才被丢来看守这片新得产业。In the pastalsohadAzure Ocean Sectdiscipleto comethisImmortal Cityto take a walk, butmostlyisMaster and Disciples Lineagedisciple, mayin his eyeslook like, managedhisanythingmaster and discipleAristocratic Family, Azure Ocean Sectthisand other hugemonsters, came outcasuallydiscipleis notcaneasilyoffend.
往年倒也有溟沧派弟子来这仙市走动,不过多半是师徒一脉门下,可在他眼里看来,管他什么师徒世家,溟沧派这等庞然巨物,随便出来一个弟子都不是自己可以轻易得罪的。Zhang Yanactuallybeckons with the handwith a smile, said: „Fellow Daoist Tandoes not need is so troublesome, This Poor Daoistalsohas the important matterto manage, thismanymonsterbirdyou, ifcanbuy, Ithendeliveryou.”张衍却是笑着摆手,道:“谭道友不必如此麻烦,贫道还有要事去办,这许多妖禽你若能买下,我便都出给你。”Tan Zhongsomewhatis unconsciously awkward, hedoes not know that thesemonsterbirdaredielive, isgoodisbad, how does thisbid?谭钟不觉有些为难,他也不知那些妖禽是死是活,是好是坏,这又如何出价?Hehad once handled the family propertyfor the clan, toalsoknow,inProfound Secttengreat sect, somediscipleoftenthencomewithmagical tool of somebeing unworthyprices, compels their to open the door the person of receiving a guestto buy.
他曾为族中打理过族产,是以也晓得,玄门十大派中,有些弟子往往便是拿一些不值价的法器过来,强逼着他们这等开门迎客之人买下来。Ifbackground not bigshop owner, fordoes not offend the opposite party, ate the pointto owealsorecognized, inhisheartalsothinks that Zhang Yan was also so.
背景若是不大的店家,为了不得罪对方,吃点亏也是认了,他心中还以为张衍也是如此。Did not say that the opposite partyisAzure Oceandisciple, is onlybythatCore Transformationcultivatorstatus, hecannot offendabsolutely, thenclenches teeth saying: „Ifdiscussedby the singlemonsterbird, was on dutySpirit Shellfish20high and low, more than 700monsterbird, collected an integer, ten thousandfiveSpirit Shellfish, how did the immortalharnessandlooks?”
不说对方乃是溟沧弟子,只是以那化丹修士的身份,他也万万得罪不起,便咬牙道:“若是以单只妖禽而论,当值灵贝二十上下,七百余只妖禽,凑个整数,万五灵贝,仙驾且看如何?”
After sayingthispricetag, he was actually the heartdropblood, wanting the opposite partyextremely.
只是说出这个价码后,他却是心头滴血,希望对方不要太过。Mustknow the monsterbirdcultivationdate and time longer, thenStored Refinement Essenceisexpensive, but such monsterbird are also difficultto seize, in his opinion, more than 700monsterbird, whenis not the goodgoods.
需知妖禽修炼时日越长,则其中藏炼髓越是价高,只是此等妖禽却也难捉的很,在他看来,七百余只妖禽,当也不是什么好货色。Zhang Yanactuallynodswith a smile, said: „Pressesthisprice. „ Tan Zhongrelaxesimmediatelygreatly, inheartsecretforced smile: „ Thisappetiteis not luckily big, ifotherwisein the clanblames, will only seekmyis not.”张衍却是笑着点头,道:“就按此价吧。“谭钟顿时大大松了一口气,心中暗暗苦笑:“幸好这一位胃口不大,否则若族中怪罪下来,也只会寻我的不是。”Calms down, saidsubmissively: „Does not know that the immortaldoes harnessthesemonsterbirdto set where? Butcandispatch the personto take below?”
定了定神,拱手道:“不知仙驾那些妖禽置在何处?可需在下遣人去取?”Zhang Yansmiles, a handracket, hassmogtogetherto leap, Tan Zhongonlythinks that a before one's eyeswhitepiece, anythingdoes not see clearly, after thisthick fogdiverge, heis dumbfounded.张衍一笑,把手一拍,就有一道烟雾腾起,谭钟只觉眼前白茫茫的一片,什么也看不清楚,待这片浓雾散去后,他不禁目瞪口呆。Sees onlyin the entirehall, is the heavily / one after anotherpackpiles up with the monsterbird that several hundreddid not awakemurkily, hewas out of sorts the moment, actuallyloses the sound said: „Heavenly Crane? Swan?”
只见整个大厅之中,已是重重叠叠堆满了数百只昏沉不醒的妖禽,他失神了片刻,却失声道:“天鹤?鸿鹄?”
The type of before one's eyesthismonsterbird, issomemostis hardto seizeto seizeunexpectedly, in the heartknowsimmediately, thistime was actually takes advantage.眼前这妖禽之种,竟是一些最为难以擒捉的,心中顿时知晓,此次却是自己占了大便宜了。Butat this timein a Immortal Cityflyingbuilding, Daoist Simasitsabove the rush cushion, the browcloselywrinkles, seems having the matter of feeling embarrassed.
而此时仙市一座飞楼中,司马道人坐于蒲团之上,眉头紧紧皱起,似乎正有为难之事。Previously after Zhang Yansigngate, hethensawthisperson of preciselyHou BaxuandthatMadameslowfrom the warningmirror the person of seeking, according topreviously agreed that heshoulddispatch the personto goto informimmediately, butheactuallysomewhathesitated in making a moveat this moment.
先前张衍过了牌门之后,他便从鉴镜中看出此人正是候伯叙和那徐夫人所寻之人,按照先前约定,原本他应该立刻遣人前去告知,只是此刻他却有些举棋不定。Hedid not knowthisperiod of five days, actually the slowtwopeopleare looking for, are manybecause of the reward that these twogive, at that timeheurgently neededSpirit Shellfish, andhealsoowed a Hou Clanfavorin the past, tois unable to shirk, thencomplied.
他原先不知道这候,徐二人究竟在找寻何人,因这两人给出的报酬不少,当时他正急需灵贝,且他当年还欠下候氏一份人情,是以也无法推脱,便应了下来。Afterwardhedoes not feelright, how couldcanletthese twois the commonperson who makes a moveto cope?
只是事后他却觉得不对,能让这两人出手对付的又岂能是寻常人?Actuallythensends peopleto nosesecretlythisZhang Yaniswhatstatus, afterwardreturned is to make himhave a scare, feltoneselfplunged into a pitfaintly.
便暗底下派人去查探这张衍究竟是何身份,后来回报却是令他吓了一跳,觉得自己隐隐跳入了一个坑中。„Azure Ocean SectTrue Disciple.”
“溟沧派的真传弟子啊。”Hisbrowtightwrinkle, andlooks likefrom the warningmirror, Core Transformationcultivator that Zhang Yannowor the elixirmeritbecomes. Heknows certainlythisweight/quantityto be heavy, althoughheis willingto helpHou Baxu, butactuallydoes not wantto falloneself.
他眉头紧皱,且从鉴镜中看来,张衍如今还是炼药功成的化丹修士。他当然知晓这分量有多么重,他虽然愿意帮助候伯叙,可却又不想把自己陷进去。
After long time, hemade the decisionfinally, sinkingsoundshouted: „Comes the person.”
半晌之后,他终于做了决定,沉声喝道:“来人。”Quiteis immediately capable, both eyesbrightyoungcultivatorwalked, saidsubmissively: „Simaholds the service, what mattertold?”
立时有一个颇为精干,双目明亮的年轻修士走了进来,拱手道:“司马执役,何事吩咐?”Daoist Simafirsttoldlow voice, saidlater: „After yousawhim, said that somepeoplewantto seekhistrouble, makinghimhaveto guard.”司马道人先是小声吩咐了一句,随后又道:“你见了他后,就说有人欲寻他的麻烦,让他有个提防。”Thisyoungcultivatordoes not dareto ask,bows a ritual, thenreceived an order.
这年轻修士不敢多问,躬身一礼,便领命去了。Before long, previouslyresulted innewsHou BaxuandMadameslowalsorushesin a hurry, Madameslowshoutsimpatiently: „Fellow Daoist Sima, butthatsmallveryappeared?”
过不了多久,先前得了消息的候伯叙与徐夫人也是匆匆赶至,徐夫人迫不及待地喊道:“司马道友,可是那小贼出现了?”MadameslowthatuniquesharpsoundpuncturesDaoist Simato knit the brows, hecoughed, said: „Before halfdouble-hour, This Poor Daoistdiscovered that personarrives atthisplace, under examines minutely, is really twowantsto seek the person.”
徐夫人那特有的尖利声响刺得司马道人一皱眉,他咳嗽了一声,才道:“半个时辰之前,贫道发现那人来到此地,细察之下,果然是两位欲寻之人。”
The Hou Baxufacial expressionrousesimmediately, Madameslow is also the apricotcirclestares, closelygrasped firmlyin the hand the streamer, the nailas ifmustfall into the meat.候伯叙神情顿时振奋起来,徐夫人也是杏目圆瞪,紧紧攥住了手中飘带,指甲仿佛都要陷入肉中。TheyinthisDivine Passing Peaksuperiorseveral years, has not actually waited forZhang Yanto comethis, insteadalsooffendedmanypeople, eventwopeoplealsohad the discord, if not forUncle Hounarratedalwaysinsisted,andunder the promiseall sorts ofconditions, Madameslowfearedhad departed, at this timeheardthisnews, extremely, Madameslowfeltunconsciouslyjoyfully, the bigenmitysoonmustreport.
他们二人在这神渡峰上等了数年,却并未等得张衍来此,反而还得罪了不少人,甚至二人还生出了龃龉,若不是侯伯叙始终坚持,并许诺下种种条件,徐夫人怕是早已离去了,此时听闻这个消息,不觉欣喜万分,徐夫人更是觉得,大仇即将得报了。Uncle Hounarrated is actually discrete, exciting after past, thensuspected saying: „Hasn't Fellow Daoistmisread?”
只是侯伯叙却是谨慎了许多,兴奋过去之后,便又怀疑道:“道友未曾看错?”
The Daoist Simacomplexionis tranquil, saidlightly: „Such asistwoinstitutesdescribes the appearance is not bad, considersthisperson of certitude.”司马道人脸色平静,淡淡说道:“如是二位所描述形貌不差,当是此人无误。”„Good!”Hou Baxuis cuping one hand in the other across the chesttoDaoist Sima, said resolutely: „No matterIand otherswhethercaneliminate this youngthief, wanted the thanksDao Brotherthickrighteousness.”
“好!”候伯叙对着司马道人一拱手,正色道:“不管我等是否能除此小贼,都要谢过道兄厚义了。”Daoist Simabeckons with the handgently, said: „Twodo not needto be polite, This Poor Daoistalsoobtainedtwomanyadvantage, but the This Poor Daoistactuallylanguagerespectfully informs.”司马道人轻轻摆手,道:“两位不必客气,贫道也得了两位不少好处,只是贫道却有一语奉告。”Hou Baxusaid: „Fellow Daoistpleasesay.”候伯叙道:“道友请说。”Daoist Simawas archingcupping one hand in the other across the chesttotwopeople, said: „ThisplaceisFlying Boat Immortal City, iftwoseek revenge, but alsopleasegiveinnextseveralpoints of face, waited forthispersonto haveImmortal Cityto make the planagain, how?”司马道人对着二人拱了拱手,道:“此地乃是飞舟仙市,二位若要寻仇,还请给在下几分薄面,等此人出了仙市再作打算,如何?”Hou Baxulooks atMadameslow, sees the meaning of hernotopposition, then the nodsaid: „Good, Fellow Daoist Simatheseyearsalsoassistedmytwopeople of many, thentreatedslightlythisveryhad/leftImmortal City, Iand othersbeganagain not lately!”候伯叙看徐夫人一眼,见她并无反对之意,便点头道:“好,司马道友这些年来也襄助了我二人不少,便待这小贼出了仙市,我等再动手不迟!”Madameslow the silvertoothbitessecretly, said: „When todayisthissmallverygives, your servantsurelymustkill with one's own handthisthief, avenges a grievanceformychild.”
徐夫人银牙暗咬,道:“今日就是这小贼授首之时,奴家定要手刃此贼,为我孩儿报仇雪恨。”Hou Baxulaughs, said: „Madamefelt relieved,mytwopeoplego into action, no matter whathishowis difficult to deal with, isProfound Light Realm cultivators, the tripisninety percent sure, butaccording said beforehand,thisperson of severed headactuallymustturn over tome.”候伯叙哈哈一笑,道:“夫人放心,我二人出马,任他如何厉害,也不过是一个玄光修士,此行是十拿九稳,只是按事先所说,此人首级却需归我。”Daoist Simawatches critically, does not know that forgotorintendsso, heactuallyhas not been the Core TransformationcultivatorincidentinformstwopeopleZhang Yannow.司马道人冷眼旁观,也不知是忘了还是有意如此,他却并未将张衍如今已是化丹修士一事告知二人。( to be continued )
