After Zhang Yan along with that width shoulder cultivator to inner palace, a before one's eyes width, then the dazzling rays put. 张衍随那宽肩修士到了内殿之后,眼前一宽,便有一股耀眼光芒放了出来。 He caught the eye looks, sees here to raise up the short copper columns of hundred several long non- mores than a chi, encircled, in palace bright spacious, on the both sides lamp bowl holds the pearl color stone, was gleaming, center suspended Jade Platform, is inlaying the pearl color stone, above the colored clothing long belt/bring, the waist wore the golden ring bright and beautiful female to sit well. 他抬眼一瞧,见这里竖起了百数根长不盈尺的短小铜柱,围了一圈,殿内亮堂宽大,两侧灯盏上托着明珠彩石,光彩熠熠,正中摆了一只玉台,镶着明珠彩石,正有一名彩衣长带,腰佩金环的明秀女子端坐其上。 In front of this female float together apricot official announcement, her beautiful pupil looks above dedicated, at times extends the white jade delicate hands to move back and forth, then the miraculous glow flashes through, talisman that Pure Qi change to flew above the copper column, flutters gyrates there slowly. 此女面前悬浮着一道杏黄色的榜文,她美眸专注地看着上面,时时伸出白玉般的纤手来回拨动,便有一丝灵光闪过,一道道清气化作的符箓飞到了铜柱之上,飘在那里缓缓旋动。 Wide shoulder cultivator comes up to greet with a smile, said submissively: „Martial Uncle Qi, this Dao Brother is comes to visit Elder Gong.” 宽肩修士笑着上去打了声招呼,拱手道:“齐师叔,这位道兄乃是前来拜望龚长老的。” paused, he saw the female is still a being enthralled condition, resembled has not heard, said busily, said: „Martial Uncle Qi, this Senior Brother seeks Elder Gong, he brings Elder Gong token talisman along, when is not a bystander.” 顿了顿,他见女子仍是一副入神状态,似是未曾听见,忙又说了一句,道:“齐师叔,这位师兄来寻龚长老的,他随身带着龚长老的牌符,当不是外人。” This female „un”, lifted the small head to look at Zhang Yan one at this time gently, the beautiful eye flashed through a surprised color slightly, is smiling to say to him: „Elder Gong goes to hundred Kagawa today, wants to return in the afternoon, this Senior Brother feared must in this multi- and other times.” 这女子这时才轻轻“嗯”了一声,抬起螓首看了张衍一眼,美目略略闪过一丝惊讶之色,对着他微笑道:“龚长老今日去了百香川,要午后方回,这位师兄怕是要在此多等些时候了。” Zhang Yan suspends the sleeve, said with a smile: „Might as well.” 张衍一摆袖,笑道:“无妨。” The females draw out the hand to rub, in the palm a miraculous glow, a delicate fingers point, had flying letter together to send again, above this flying letter has a pair of clever wing, flashes carelessly, looks that the fine show is lovable, flies not to see swiftly. 女子起手一搓,掌中起了一道灵光,再纤指一点,就有一道飞书发了出去,这飞书之上有一对灵巧羽翼,忽忽地闪动,看着精秀可爱,倏尔飞去不见。 Zhang Yan knows this to transform with magic power to the wing, itself has nothing anything to affect, but in sect female cultivator is actually partial to these to decorate especially, by mostly in the thing of using spent some wishful thinkings in the body side especially. 张衍知晓这对翅膀不过是用法力幻化而出,本身并无有什么作用,只是门中女修却格外偏爱这些装点,是以大多在身侧所用之物上格外花费了一些小心思。 This female looks like is also in the hand busy, cannot attend to greeting Zhang Yan, throws an apologetic look to him, then concentrates on the mind above that say/way flying list as in the hand, when above after these 110 copper columns fully occupied talisman, a have several maid, went forward to take talisman then to walk. 这女子看来也是手中着忙,也顾不得来招呼张衍,对他投去一个歉然眼神,便依旧把心神投注在手中那道飞榜之上,待这百十根铜柱之上占满了符箓之后,有数个婢女上来,上前取了符箓便走。 In this period after the maid looked at talisman, be hesitant, side the gathering female doubted to ask: „Martial Uncle Qi, this Senior Brother Yao established six great merit, can calculate big high merit, why actually pares his merit? If he refuses to accept, how I should mention with him.” 期间有一名婢女看了一眼符箓之后,犹豫了一下,凑到女子身边疑问道:“齐师叔,这姚师兄立下了六大功,能算一大上功了,为何却削去他一功？若是他不服,我该如何与他说起。” This female smiles lightly, said: „You told Yao Heng, his monster pill was buys from Immortal City, rested thinks that can hide the truth from me to go, this time made the light punishment slightly, if he dares to pester endlessly, thinks not I do not dare to bevel his merit.” 这女子淡淡笑了笑,道:“你去告诉姚衡,他那枚妖丹乃是从仙市之中购得,休以为能瞒过我去,此次不过稍作薄惩,若是他敢胡搅蛮缠,莫以为我不敢把他功德削平。” The maid does not dare to say anything again, is busy at lowering the head to draw back. 那婢女不敢再多说什么,忙垂首退下。 Zhang Yan knew at this time, originally this female unexpectedly is in this Merit Courtyard the people of group of merit, this greatly is actually not simple. 张衍这时才知,原来此女竟是这功德院中批功之人,这倒是大不简单了。 Looks that the Zhang Yan vision looks, perhaps is also in the hand the matter settles, this female smiles to him, said: „In this Merit Courtyard is the Elder senior, is not always good to ask them to bustle about daily, by seizing the girl coming manservant, was really miserable beyond description.” 看着张衍目光望来,或许也是手中之事了结,这女子对他轻轻一笑,道:“这功德院中皆是长老前辈,总不好叫他们日日忙碌,是以捉了小女子过来当差,真是苦不堪言。” Zhang Yan smiles, where will take seriously this saying, this female clearly is deep in Merit Courtyard the Elder trust, to can come here to approve the merit again, moreover looked at her a moment ago that appearance, had fun, the hand handshake grasped the merit power, in sect disciple feared that was many must flatter in her. 张衍一笑,哪里会把这话当真,此女分明是深得功德院中长老信任,是以再能来得此处批功,而且看她刚才那副模样,也是乐在其中,手握手握功德大权,门中弟子怕是多数都要来巴结于她。 This female also said: „Daughter hasn't Qi Mengjiao, consulted the Senior Brother lofty name/surnamed Gao given name?” 这女子又道:“小女齐梦娇,还未请教师兄高姓大名？” Zhang Yan said: „Below Zhang Yan.” 张衍道:“在下张衍。” The Qi Mengjiao beautiful eye stares slightly in a big way, is astonished saying: „Well? Originally are you Yanyi master?” 齐梦娇美目微微瞪大,讶道:“咦？原来你就是雁依的师傅？” The Zhang Yan eyebrow selects, is astonished saying: „This does Senior Sister also know the young apprentice?” 张衍眉毛微挑,微讶道:“这位师姐也认识小徒么？” Qi Mengjiao is just about to open the mouth, actually listened to outside one sound of laughing to pass on, the Elder Gong half step entered in the hall, saw Zhang Yan, the surface flood happy expression, came up to hold on him saying: „Junior Brother Zhang, you came, comes, along with me drinks, haha......” 齐梦娇正要开口,却听有一阵外面大笑之声传了进来,龚长老快步入堂中,见了张衍,面泛喜色,上来就拉住他道:“张师弟,你可是来了,来来来,随我喝酒去,哈哈……” Zhang Yan is cuping one hand in the other across the chest to that Qi Mengjiao with a smile, then sprinkles however says goodbye to depart. 张衍笑着对着那齐梦娇一拱手,便洒然告辞离去。 Qi Mengjiao is also the setting out innumerable blessings, gazes after Zhang Yan to depart, vanishes until his back, stands there lost, does not know that is thinking anything. 齐梦娇也是起身万福,目送张衍离去,直到他背影消失,还是出神地站在那里,不知在想些什么。 Two people harness the wind, Zhang Yan sees the Elder Gong interest extremely to be high, said with a smile: „Is it possible that does Elder Gong have what celebration to be inadequate?” 两人驾风而出,张衍见龚长老一路兴致极高,笑着言道:“龚长老莫非有什么喜事不成？” Elder Gong laughs saying: „Junior Brother Zhang you are ask something already known, if not for you come, how could that several Jade Pellet of idea old lunatic do fall into Old Daoist my hand?” 龚长老大笑道:“张师弟你这是明知故问啊,若不是你来,计老疯子的那几块丹玉岂能落入老道我的手中？” He smiles several, feels the beard saying: „This time you seek Old Daoist I, whether can go to that Lesser Cold Boundary one line?” 他又笑几声,摸着胡须道:“此次你来寻老道我,是否是要去那小寒界中一行？” The Zhang Yan nod said: „precisely.” 张衍点头道:“正是。” Elder Gong also nods, he collects slightly the smiling face, said: „Lesser Cold Boundary 11 p.m. to 1 a.m just now opens immortal cave every day, here still many good wines, might as well first drank several cups, when the double-hour went again not lately.” 龚长老也是点头,他将笑容稍稍敛起,道:“小寒界每日子时方才开启洞府,我这里尚不少美酒,不妨先饮上几杯,待到了时辰再去不迟。” In the Elder Gong spoken language mentioned in again and again the mansion the good wine, Zhang Yan then sensed this liquor possibly has what not simple place, but lets off this matter not to raise, Elder Gong is the age is also highest in Merit Courtyard, the qualifications are oldest, has the social dealings not to have the fault with him, therefore also complies joyfully. 龚长老几次三番言语中提到府中美酒,张衍便觉出这酒可能有什么不简单的地方,不过放过此事不提,龚长老在功德院中也是寿数最高,资格最老,与他打好交道没有坏处,因此也是欣然答应。 Two people good cloud rides the wind, toward in a flying pavilion that is located in the southern position goes, in that 9th-layer building, is the place of Elder Gong anchorite, Spiritual Qi in this Merit Courtyard is not abundant , can only compare with common Blessed Land, but Elder Gong actually thinks little. 两人行云乘风,往一座位于南位的飞阁中而去,那第九层楼上,便是龚长老隐修之地,这功德院中的灵气并不充裕,也只能与寻常福地相比,但是龚长老却不以为意。 After he strides in the Nascent Soul 3-layer boundary, is several hundreds carried, the aware age not many, was also thinking in that Lesser Cold Boundary long ago secluded cultivation, hoping breakthrough Realm, does not know afterward looked pale, was in order to got the share to be in this Merit Courtyard, every day fished to visit friends, drinks wine to make music, passes the leisurely and carefree day. 他跨入元婴三重境后已是数百载了,自觉寿数无多,早些年还想着去那小寒界中闭死关,以期突破境界,后来不知怎么也看淡了,是以便在这功德院中领了份司职,每日垂钓访友,饮酒作乐,也是过得悠闲日子。 Crossed the main entrance, after entering in the hall, Zhang Yan looked at several, Elder Gong this dwelling place actually refined, azure bamboo is very elegant, the spring water ding-dong, several side Guaishi is crowding around Cloud Pavilion, several orioles stand above the branch, trades the cry to continue, the place of near gate hangs has a cross rod, above is setting up a mildew parrot, is only the eyelid heavy, a dozing off appearance. 过了正门,入了内堂之后,张衍看了几眼,龚长老这处居处倒是雅致的很,青竹郁郁,泉水叮咚,几方怪石簇拥着一座云亭,几只黄鹂立在枝头之上,换鸣不止,近门之处悬着有一横杆,上面立着一只白毛鹦鹉,只是眼皮沉沉,一副打瞌睡的模样。 Elder Gong saw to be angry extremely, gets angry: „Master came back, how didn't your domestic animal call?” 龚长老见了极为生气,怒道:“老爷回来了,你这畜生怎么不叫？” The mildew parrot quickly grasps the meaning of something, immediately says with high voice: „Master called, Master called......” 白毛鹦鹉一个激灵,立刻尖声道:“老爷叫了,老爷叫了……” Elder Gong Face pulls out, strikes an attitude to hit, this mildew parrot is startled to fly, hides toward the grove, says: „Master hits not, Master hits not, the small knowledge, knew mistakenly mistakenly......” 龚长老脸皮一抽,作势欲打,这白毛鹦鹉惊得飞起,往林子里躲去,口中道:“老爷莫打,老爷莫打,小的知错了,知错了……” Zhang Yan looks smiles, but in the heart also sighed secretly, can this Elder Gong day seemingly had satisfied, how many years but have to ramble? The years in a hurry, glaring are hundred years the millenniums, vertical for a while pleasant, do not get the immortal, all are the floating clouds spatial dreams. 张衍看着不禁莞尔,但心中却又暗暗叹息,这龚长老的日子看似过得惬意,但是又能过得几年逍遥呢？岁月匆匆,晃眼便是百载千年,纵得一时如意,不得长生,一切皆是浮云空梦。 Elder Gong here few person, Zhang Yan arrives today, is warm greeting, he draws Zhang Yan to sit to the pavilion , a hand racket, have several white monkey jumps to the pavilion in immediately, moves in the world good wine. 龚长老这里少有人至,今日张衍到来,自是热情招呼,他拉着张衍坐到亭中,手一拍,立时有数个白毛猴儿跳到亭中,搬来一坛美酒。 Elder Gong sees the lute to go, then ridicules saying: „These domestic animals drank secretly.” 龚长老见封泥已去,便笑骂道:“这几只畜生又偷喝了。” He hand one finger/refers, does not know that drops a pair of wine glass from where, that wine pot from flying, the altar/jar mouth sinks, then fills to the brim that wine glass. 他把手一指,也不知从何处落下一对酒杯,那酒坛自飞而起,坛口一沉,便将那酒杯倒满。 Elder Gong carries the wine glass, said: „Comes, Junior Brother Zhang, and drinks to heart's content several cups with me.” 龚长老端起酒杯,道:“来来来,张师弟,且与我痛饮几杯。” Zhang Yan shows a faint smile, shakes the robe sleeve, from carrying the wine glass, with Elder Gong one pair, then from drinking, this liquor arrives in the abdomen, then thinks that nice and warm air current walks randomly everywhere, the whole body gives off heat, the pore diastole, really had several points of feeling of being drunk slightly. 张衍微微一笑,将袍袖一抖,也自端起酒杯,与龚长老一对,便自饮下,这酒一到腹中,便觉一股暖烘烘的气流到处游走,浑身发热,毛孔舒张,竟然就微微有了几分醉意。 In his heart is astonished however, must know the cultivator all over the body breath and pulse penetration, takes world Spiritual Qi, regardless of how much liquor water drink is muddy if safe/without matter, but this liquor drinks, then can have effectiveness so, is not very really ordinary. 他心中不禁讶然,需知修道人通体气脉贯通,又服食天地灵气,无论多少酒水喝下去都是浑若无事,可是这酒才一口喝下来,便能有这般效用,委实很不一般。 Elder Gong happily said: „Junior Brother Zhang, how? My this liquor named Returning Yang Wine, drank this liquor, can drive Yin Wind cold qi, in expands Yang, you wanted in that Lesser Cold Boundary dead at the age of the snow and ice duplicate cage, the Yin Qi seeping bone, the non liquor cannot drive out the cold.”, 龚长老得意道:“张师弟,如何？我这酒名为还阳酒,喝了此酒,能驱阴风寒气,壮大内阳,你要所去得那小寒界中终年冰雪覆笼,阴气沁骨,非此酒不能驱寒。”, Zhang Yan said with a smile: „Originally is a Gong good intention, then must drink several cups below but actually.” 张衍笑道:“原来是龚老一片好意,那在下倒要多饮几杯。” Elder Gong listens more delighted, said: „Although drinks, this liquor Old Daoist my something.” 龚长老听着更为欢喜,道:“尽管喝,这酒老道我这处有的事。” Two people drinks wine, while discussed the matter of in sect, the opposite party was Nascent Soul Daoist, Zhang Yan then consults the in the path of cultivation unclear matter while this opportunity, Elder Gong spoke out frankly. 两人一边饮酒,一边谈论门中之事,对方乃是元婴真人,张衍趁此机会便请教了修道途中的许多不明之事,龚长老自是知无不言。 Arrived 7 to 9 p.m end, Elder Gong watched the weather, then took a gold/metal sword to come, has a hand sacrifice, then from departing outside pavilion, went toward north, later he said: „Junior Brother Zhang, the double-hour, that Lesser Cold Boundary then must set up a government office the gate again, you may go, right,......” 到了戌时末,龚长老看了看天色,便拿了一只金剑过来,起手一祭,便自飞出亭外,往北而去,随后他言道:“张师弟,再有一个时辰,那小寒界便要开府门了,你可前去了,对了,还有……” He took an appearance exquisite Yuxiu's wine pot to hand over from the sleeve, said mysterious in a low voice: „My this ‚spring bottle’ can put water of river, but now its Chinese dress is this Returning Yang Wine, this treasure then delivered you, but must record, cannot make Yuan Old Daoist snatch.” 他从袖中取了一只模样玲珑玉秀的酒壶递了过来,神秘兮兮地低声言道:“我这‘春来瓶’能装一河之水,不过如今其中装得俱是这还阳酒也,此宝便送你了,但需记着,不能让袁老道抢了去。” Zhang Yan does not decline, receives to accept, said submissively: „This time this, was actually thank your for your hospitality Elder Gong.” 张衍也不推辞,接过来收下,拱手道:“此番来此,却是叨扰龚长老了。” Elder Gong haha said with a smile: „Where words, you remember in the future will come to see my old Undying much is.” 龚长老哈哈笑道:“哪里话来,你记得往后多多来看我老不死的就是。” Zhang Yan arched cupping one hand in the other across the chest seriously, is about to depart, Elder Gong said: „Wait, you drink the remaining these half altar/jar nice wines to take this again, give that Yuan.” 张衍又郑重拱了拱手,待要离去,龚长老却道:“慢着,你再把这喝剩下的这半坛好酒带上,送给那袁老儿。” Zhang Yan looked at that already the wine pot that breaks the seal, is astonished however said: „Half altar/jar?” 张衍看了看那早已启封的酒坛,不禁讶然道:“半坛？” Elder Gong as if waits for him to ask, happily said: „Thing are many were not rare, Old Daoist I was to hang his appetite, making him suppress uncomfortably, otherwise hasn't he overturned the heavens? You listen my right, you, were saying that is you harbors with his, takes care of you to be good.” 龚长老似乎就等着他这么问,得意道:“东西多了就不稀罕了,老道我就是要吊着他的胃口,让他心里憋着难受,否则他还不翻了天去？你听我的没错,你记着,就说是你私藏下来与他的,保管你有好处。” Zhang Yan nods, the sleeve wields, that half altar/jar liquor puts in the bag, to say good-bye later with Elder Gong, the vertical cloud, searches to go toward the place of Lesser Cold Boundary place. 张衍点了点头,袖子一挥,将那半坛酒收入囊中,随后与龚长老辞别出来,纵云而起,往小寒界所在之处寻觅而去。 This Lesser Cold Boundary is side Small World Heavenly Cave, immortal cave leaves depart from the peak due north Dragon Abyss Great Lake, above this peak all year long dreary this solitary one cold, the group bird trace, is the chilly silencing is certainly colder under the dim light of night now. 这小寒界乃是一方小界洞天,洞府在龙渊大泽正北别离峰上,此峰之上终年萧瑟孤寒,群鸟绝踪,如今在夜色之下更是凄静寂冷。 Zhang Yan used half double-hour, just now to here, saw one to have five zhang (3.33 m) gigantic stone tablet to stand erect high above the peak, he then stopped over in this, seeing the tablet surface trace was motley, all around was overgrown with weeds, above the handwriting has not identified clear, was is only clear below corner/horn place but actually one line of illegible hand-written letters, above wrote „is urging Monarch to turn head early, came the this world roaming not, the cold wind xyster, nine lives must rest”. 张衍用去了半个时辰,方才到了此处,见有一块高有五丈的硕大石碑矗立在峰顶之上,他便在此落脚,见碑面痕迹斑驳,四周杂草丛生,其上字迹早已辨认不清,只是在下角处倒有一行潦草手书还算清晰,上面写着“劝君早回头,莫来此界游,寒风刮骨刀,九命也要休”。 Zhang Yan smiles lightly, the eye looks toward the front, sees above high cliff to have a Daoist temple, including this solitary one lamps sway, as if possibly extinguishes momentarily, he then said loudly: „Can Elder Yuan in? Below Zhang Yan interview!” 张衍淡淡一笑,眼往前方看去,见高崖之上有一座宫观,其中有一盏孤灯飘摇,似乎随时可能熄灭,他便大声言道:“袁长老可在？在下张衍求见！” ( to be continued ) (未完待续)
