When the second heavenly stems and earthly branches, Liu Yanyi takes one's leave Zhang Yan, re-enters in the peak to overcome an obstacle, has not met the rival, the relaxed even/including two, have come on that tenth Nine Peaks directly. 第二日辰时,刘雁依拜别张衍,重入峰中闯关,一路未逢敌手,轻松连过两阵,径直来那第十九峰上。 She stands in the peak, raises eyes to look into the distance. 她立在峰巅,举目眺望。 Sees only under the erecting and sticking out peak, spacious valley lands, the east side sets up more than ten several people of joint holding towering great trees, is flowing, the Cuixia vine vine. 只见孤拔高峰之下,有一片宽敞谷地,东面立着十几株数人合抱的参天巨树,枝流叶布,翠霞蔓蔓。 The west is one piece extravagantly, the ground dead twigs and withered leaves by the sweep trace, the mountain wall were all picked up one about 30 ten feets in width early semicircle stone cliff, repairing is really smooth, center suspended person of high three foot incense burners. 西面是一片阔地,地面枯枝败叶皆早被收拾干净,山壁之挑出一处宽约30丈大小的半圆石崖,修葺得甚为平整,正中摆了一只一人高的三脚香炉。 After stone cliff, is 3-layer that inserts the mountain wall flies to observe, climbs Fujikage, the eave corner/horn emits, the Vermilion Pillar profound tile, in Daoist temple one side mountain Xi has three streams waterfall to wash out, formed a clear bolt of white silk to the valley land, winds up, divides into two valley land, shears like the Yin-Yang. 石崖之后是一座嵌入山壁的三层飞观,攀藤挂枝,檐角冒出,朱柱玄瓦,宫观一侧山隙中有三道流瀑冲刷下来,到了谷地中汇成一股晶莹匹练,蜿蜒前行,将谷地一分为二,割如阴阳。 Above cliff stage has sat several disciple, all first step intrudes the person of this peak compared with her. 崖台之上早已坐着数名弟子,俱是比她先一步闯入此峰之人。 Liu Yanyi treads the cool breeze, curls flutters before stage, beautiful eye one revolution, seeing oneself is the seventh arrival, that several disciple looked askance to look at her one eyes, then no longer looked, was still the holding the breath danger sits. 刘雁依踏清风而下,袅袅飘至台前,美目一转,见自己是第七个到来此间的,那几名弟子侧目瞧了她一眼,便不再多看,仍是屏息危坐。 This peak guards Elder to altogether have five people, from Inspiration Courtyard, Superior Bright Courtyard, Merit Courtyard, Righteous Purity Courtyard comes respectively, all sits well to fly together above the view front stage. 这一峰镇守长老共有五人,分别是从灵机院,上明院,功德院,正清院而来,俱都端坐于飞观前方高台之上。 Sits seems like the forty years of age in center that daoist high and low, the nose straight mouth side, a face righteous qi, the slender arched eyebrows, long beard hangs to the abdomens, in the vision the power and influence is cold, his body bank boy calls loudly: „Superior Bright Courtyard Elder Ji here, enters the valley disciple fast notification name.” 坐在正中那道人看似四旬上下,鼻直口方,一脸正气,卧蚕眉,长须垂至腹间,目光中威势凛凛,他身畔童儿高声喊道:“上明院季长老在此,入谷弟子速速通报姓名。” Liu Yanyi goes forward to bow to salute, said: „disciple Liu Yanyi, has seen Elder Ji.” 刘雁依上前屈膝行礼,道:“弟子刘雁依,见过季长老。” Elder Ji listened to this name, opens the eye slightly, looked at her several eyes, has the sound said: „And sits in waits at the same time temporarily.” 季长老听了这名字,微微睁目,看了她几眼,出声道:“且坐于一边暂候。” Liu Yanyi selected one to empty the rush cushion to sit down, she selected, oneself, here altogether had 16 seating order, seemed sees this 16 people, was the population of this last Grand Competition. 刘雁依择了一只空蒲团坐下,她点了一下,连带自己在内,这里共有一十六个座次,显得见此一十六人,便是此次最后一阵大比之人数。 By after noontime, came several people one after another, filled 16 numbers, besides Weng Zhiyuan, Yuan Yanhui, Liu Yanyi, as well as disciple named Zhu Qingsong, is in Profound Sect Aristocratic Family True Disciple. 到了午时之后,又陆陆续续来了几人,满了一十六之数,除了翁知远,袁燕回,刘雁依,以及一名叫做朱青松的弟子外,余者皆是玄门世家中真传弟子。 Elder Ji sees the disciple population to be uneven, then high sound said: „Shutdown!” 季长老见弟子人数已齐,便高声道:“封关！” Sound of talking side stop/rest, in the mountain stream a golden bell sound, departs together flag gate from the azure fog, this flag gate one presently, pass/test Libi, entered the road of valley certainly, behind disciple was unable to reenter. 语声方歇,山涧之中一声金钟响,自青雾之中飞出一道旗门,此旗门一现,阵关立闭,绝了入谷之路,后面弟子已是无法再入此间。 Elder Ji stands up, looked at one toward the sky, said: „Various Teacher, if admonished, can not delay excessively for a long time, after inspecting, disciple may enter in the valley Grand Competition.” 季长老站起身,又朝上空看了一眼,道:“各家师长若要训话,毋需耽搁过久,检视之后,弟子可入谷中大比。” disciple last Grand Competition, must inspect its disciple by its Teacher according to convention, whether there is examines to be plotted by what spell gu insect, sends in last to close the door it again. 弟子最后一阵大比,按例需由其师长检视其弟子,查看有无遭得什么符咒蛊虫暗算,再将其送入最后一道关门。 When this act because of Azure Ocean Sect Sect-Founding engages in fierce battle with Eastern Flower Continent North Monster(s), when in sect is Grand Competition, disciple must guard carefully, is protected and sustained by Teacher. 此举是因溟沧派开派之时与东华洲北方妖魔鏖战,门中便是大比时,弟子亦需小心提防,由师长护持。 Now ten thousand years pass by, Azure Ocean Sect early is Eastern Flower great sect, no one has dared to make this matter, but this case actually followed. 如今万年过去,溟沧派早以是东华大派,已无人敢做此事,但此例却是遵循了下来。 After Elder Ji spoke this words, as soon as he wields whisks, above the peak, Shiping opens greatly, has the world, he with behind four Elder vertical clouds in spatial, invests toward in together, does not see in a flash, only two Deacon Daoist one on the left and other on the right, defend to close the door. 季长老说完此话之后,他一挥拂尘,峰顶之上,有一座石屏大开,其中别有天地,他与身后四长老纵云在空,一起往里投入,转瞬不见,只余两名执事道人一左一右,守住关门。 At this time in the sky in auspicious clouds powder, dropped nine cloud mist, on one from each disciple circled, was met by them respectively. 这时天空中之中祥云一散,落下九道云岚来,自每个弟子身上一绕,便被他们各自接了上去。 Whatever Liu Yanyi that gentle Mist Qi tied down itself, toward that Yuntian / Cloudy Sky , the moment then fell on a flying cot. 刘雁依任由那轻柔烟气缠住了自己,往那云天中去,须臾便落在了一处飞榻上。 Above Zhang Yan is sitting quietly, is smiling the nod saying: „Yanyi, this last pass/test, is delivered you by master a regulation.” 张衍正安坐其上,笑着点头道:“雁依,这最后一关,由为师送你一程。” He puts out a hand a finger/refers, has Mist Qi together to depart, her, as soon as requirement, then along with the cool breeze together, went to the valley. 他伸手一指,就有一道烟气飞出,将她一托,便随清风一道,去了谷中。 After Zhang Yan disciple sends in array gate, then the vision sweeps, sees only among this moment this piece of backdrops, besides him and Elder Zhu, as well as another Hu Elder, other comes this's Core Transformation cultivator, is stems from Five Great Surnames and Twelve Great Families disciple, but prominent family hold sect is actually one does not see. 张衍将自己徒儿送入阵门后,便目光一扫,只见此刻这片天幕之间,除他与祝长老,以及另一名胡姓长老外,其余来此的化丹修士,皆是出自五大姓及十二巨室门下,但那望族盛宗却是一个不见。 In every Aristocratic Family the person, is headed by Five Great Clans, its under is Twelve Great Families, again is prominent family hold sect, has a strict hierarchy stably, after resembling in sect Grand Competition, obtained under bestows, these 17 clans divide insufficiently, does not dare to come up to fight. 凡世家中人,皆以五大族为首,其下便是十二巨室,再次才是望族盛宗,等级森严稳固,似门中大比后所得下赐,这十七族都分不够,余者自是不敢上来争抢。 In the Zhang Yan heart sneers secretly, if this happens then, on in sect Grand Competition, is equal to isolating these small Aristocratic Family in disguised form outside. 张衍心中暗暗冷笑,这样一来,每逢门中大比,等于将那些小世家变相隔绝在外。 If said that in these small Aristocratic Family hearts does not have the resentment, he does not believe that but this Five Great Clans and Twelve Great Families almost occupied in the gate the Aristocratic Family ten 78 strengths, they then want to revolt are also absolutely impossible. 若说这些小世家心中没有怨气,他是决计不信的,只是这五大族和十二巨室几乎了占去了门内世家十之七八的实力,他们便想反抗也绝无可能。 The Zhang Yan vision transfers again, looks toward Elder Zhu that place, the Elder Zhu front is standing a man and a woman two disciple, his disciple two disciple all entered the last peak, in the heart is also satisfied, but saw after the Zhang Yan vision throws, the aura stagnates slightly, did not look toward here, only calls two disciple to the nearby careful urging. 张衍目光再转,往祝长老那处看去,祝长老面前站着一男一女两名弟子,他门下两名弟子皆是入了最后一峰,心中也是满意,只是看到张衍目光投来之后,气息微微一滞,也不往这里多看,只把两名徒儿唤至跟前细细叮嘱。 That male disciple wears unreliably purple traces a design in gold the Daoist robe, the white sock glow shoes, said that hair bun tall Wan, two eyebrows are green, handsome tall thin, even if stands in numerous disciple, is still describes outstanding, asking the person unable to look down upon. 那名男弟子身着玄紫描金道袍,白袜芒履,道髻高挽,两眉青青,俊朗高瘦,即便站在众弟子之中,也是形容出众,叫人不能小视。 But that female coils the double spiral, is the bright red ribbon, sways with the wind, is really attractive, a pomegranate color tows the Earth Immortal skirt, the waist binds the jade white silk ribbon, the terminal is hanging the phoenix mark thin silver link, although is the stature petite person, but the nose is very straight, the double pupil is bright, heroic bearing soughing. 而那名女子则头绾双螺,系着朱红丝带,随风飘摇,煞是好看,一身石榴色曳地仙裙,腰裹玉白丝绦,末端悬挂凤纹细银环,虽是身材娇小可人,但鼻挺而直,双眸有神,英姿飒然。 After Elder Zhu words saying , from the sleeve does not know that gave two people with anything. 祝长老把话说完之后,又从袖中不知拿了什么东西交给二人。 This action falls in the people who use their heads eye, suspected that should be the class/flow of treasure, but is just now willing to put out to give disciple until this time, deciding is not the prestige can the really big thing, suddenly, sees this several disciple is the heart one cold. 这举动落在有心人眼里,猜想那应该是宝物之流,不过直到此时方才肯拿出交给弟子,定也不是威能甚大之物,一时间,看到这一幕的几名弟子都是心头一凛。 Zhang Yan quite pondered looked at Elder Zhu one. 张衍颇为玩味地看了祝长老一眼。 magical treasure that this person gives is actually what, might how? No one knows. But sometimes instead cannot see instead most made one dread. 此人给出的法宝究竟是什么,威力如何？无人知晓。但有时候反而是看不见的反而是最令人畏惧的。 This always seems like excels at grasping the will of the people extremely, works as the people to face directly to make this movement, clearly when is to let others and his disciple to has to dread, cannot unshackle. 此老看起来极擅把握人心,当着众人直面做出这番动作,分明就是要让别人与他弟子对上时心存忌惮,放不开手脚。 After crossing the moment, here nine Core Transformation cultivator sent in disciple respectively, then turns head, chitchatted mutually. 过了一刻之后,此处九位化丹修士分别将自己门下送入了阵中之中,便回过头来,互相攀谈起来。 And the person looked at Zhang Yan one, has the sound said intentionally: „Junior Brother, some family background common people, the foundation superficial generation, do not consider resources bite off more than can chew, actually attempts and other Aristocratic Family to contend with me, is really laughable.” 其中有一人看了张衍一眼,故意出声道:“师弟啊,有些出身凡民,根基浅薄之辈,自不量力,却妄图与我等世家相争,着实可笑。” Immediately some people meet the thread of conversation, said: „Senior Brother Zheng said is really, thinks that my Aristocratic Family common surname, which clan does not have several thousand years of foundation, a trivial cultivate the dao 20-30 years of person may compare can it be that.” 立刻有人接了话头,道:“郑师兄所言甚是,想我世家大姓,哪一族不是有着数千年的根基,岂是区区修道20-30年之人可比。” Zhang Yan hears their surnames, knew that originally is Zheng Family disciple, this was so also hostile to oneself no wonder, on the same day above Core Grade Assembly, he swept the Zheng Family face ruthlessly. 张衍听得他们之姓,得知原来是郑家弟子,这也难怪对自己这般敌视了,当日品丹大会之上,他可是狠狠扫了郑家的脸面。 He sprinkles however smiles, is disinclined to haggle over with these two, but waits for the Grand Competition result. 他洒然一笑,懒得与这两人去计较,只是坐等大比结果。 Passes half double-hour, only listens to a drum sound, stone door to open greatly, eight disciple one after another from departing. 过得半个时辰,只听一声鼓响,石门大开,就有八名弟子陆陆续续从飞出。 These disciple all first are by the person of opponent defeating, cannot stay for a long time in that valley. 这些弟子俱是先被对手斗败之人,自是不能在那谷中久留。 That Senior Brother Zheng originally from self-confident, suddenly saw own disciple is also one of them, the facial expression changes, stands to lose the sound said: „Zheng Xu, you have the valuable garment cover body, some gold/metal sew is grasping, how to let slip?” 那郑师兄原本自自信满满,忽然见到自己弟子也在其中,不由神情一变,站起来失声道:“郑旭,你有宝衫罩身,又有金雷钉在握,怎么会失手？” That disciple is a face was dejected, listens from Master Fu Zewen, in the heart the fear to fear unavoidably, on the flying cot, „plop” kneels down to kotow, puts on a long face saying: „respected teacher, non- is disciple does not make contribution reply, the reality was that Liu Yanyi has ‚5-Spirits Whitecarp Shuttle’ in the hand, disciple had had the full power, may really unable to resist......” 那弟子原本是一脸垂头丧气,听自家师傅责问,心中不免惶惧,上得飞榻来,“扑通”一声跪下叩首,哭丧着脸道:“回禀恩师,非是徒儿不尽力,实是那刘雁依有‘五灵白鲤梭’在手,徒儿已是出了全力,可委实抵挡不住啊……” „5-Spirits Whitecarp Shuttle?” “五灵白鲤梭？” Senior Brother Zheng almost stamps one's foot, as soon as he transfers the head, looks angrily toward Zhang Yan, must eat latter's appearance. 郑师兄差点跳脚,他一转首,怒气冲冲朝着张衍看过来,一副要吃了后者的模样。 Xiao family this magical treasure falls in the Zhang Yan hand is well-known, he had also ridiculed for this reason in secret Xiao family several times, has not thought such bulletin should fall to own on. 萧氏这件法宝落在张衍手中已是人尽皆知,他为此还暗中嘲笑过萧氏几次,可没想到这么快报应就落到自己头上了。 Profound Artifact first-class, in Five Great Clans is also rare. 玄器一流,在五大族中也是少见。 Let alone this „5-Spirits Whitecarp Shuttle” wins great reputation, in Profound Artifact is also High-Grade in High-Grade, specially broken magical treasure restrictive seal, except for True Artifact, only then a few magical treasure can restrain. 更何况这“五灵白鲤梭”名声在外,在玄器之中也是上品中的上品,专破法宝禁制,除了真器,也只有少数几件法宝能够克制。 Senior Brother Zheng immediately in heart oppressed, several people of this Grand Competition that no wonder is on good terms with him do not dispatch disciple to come this unexpectedly, now wants to come, wants to expect possibly has this one. 郑师兄顿时心中憋闷,难怪与他交好的几人此次大比竟不遣弟子来此,现在想来,想是早就料到可能有此一着。 In those days was their Aristocratic Family disciple depends magical treasure to bully master and disciple disciple, how now was actually in turn? 往日里都是他们世家门下仗着法宝去欺压师徒弟子,怎么如今却是反过来了？ He really cannot repress, arrives in front of Zhang Yan indignantly, loudly said: „Zhang Yan, your magical treasure is difficult to deal with, my disciple also calculates that today loses not injust, but on this day, also not just your has good magical treasure in the hand, rests thinks that no one can make you, the day after tomorrow above Grand Competition, I, when must ask for advice is very wise, said goodbye.” 他实在按捺不住,愤愤来到张衍面前,大声道:“张衍,今日你法宝厉害,我徒儿也算输得不冤,不过这天底下,也并非只有你一家有上好法宝在手,休以为无人可以制你,后日大比之上,我当要领教很高明,告辞了。” Then, as soon as he flicks the sleeve, bringing the disciple escaping smoke to walk. 说完,他一拂袖,带着弟子遁烟而走。 Elder Zhu listened to „5-Spirits Whitecarp Shuttle” several characters, the look slightly changes, he caresses the beard to hesitate does not speak. 祝长老听了“五灵白鲤梭”几个字,神色微微一变,他抚着胡须沉吟不语。 Crossed not long, he as if settled on what idea, suddenly arrived one side, near Deacon Daoist ear light language before the gate several, that daoist confuses, but was surprised looked at his one eyes, seeing his face was serious, be hesitant, then nodded, turns around to walk toward stone in sect. 过了没有多久,他似乎拿定了什么主意,突然走到了一边,在门前执事道人耳边轻语了几句,那道人迷惑而惊奇得地看了他一眼,见他一脸郑重认真,犹豫了一下,便点了点头,转身往石门中走去。 The people all are curious, does not know that he said anything, some people cannot bear stand up immediately, drink to ask: „This Senior Brother holds on a minute, can the matter to the criticism/human language, what your two people say there all stealthily?” 众人皆是好奇,不知道他说了些什么,有人登时忍不住站起,喝问道:“这位师兄且慢,事无不可对人言,你二人在那里鬼鬼祟祟说些什么？” That Deacon Daoist different outside these disciple, oneself are also High Clarity Palace Elder, is the Master and Disciples Lineage family background, sees this person to ask not politely, he does not show due respect for the feelings, cold sound said: „This is Elder Zhu looks after some disciple private affairs, waits a minute This Poor Daoist to meet the inform Elder Ji resolution, if this Senior Brother has to see to doubt, may from look for Elder Ji to explain things, does not need to make much ado about nothing, lost the status.” 那执事道人不同外间那些弟子,自身亦是上明殿长老,乃是师徒一脉出身,见此人问得不客气,他也是丝毫不给面子,冷声道:“此乃祝长老关照门下弟子一些私事,稍候贫道自会禀明季长老决断,这位师兄若有见疑,可自去找季长老分说,不必大惊小怪,失了身份。” „You......” that person of he withstand/top has food stuck in the throat, but actually by manifesting suddenly, snort/hum, must sit. “你……”那人他顶得噎住,但却由发作不得,哼了一声,只得重新坐了回去。 The people waited half double-hour, stone door opens again, this time actually four disciple depart outside the valley dejected, saw oneself disciple to suffer defeat, that several masters also felt ashamed, has no intention to remain, bringing oneself disciple to soar to go. 众人又候了半个时辰,石门再开,此次却有四个弟子神情黯然地飞出谷外,见了自己徒儿败北,那几个师傅也是脸上无光,自是无意多留,带了自家徒儿飞腾而去。 Above this moment this day border, stopped other Zhang Yan unexpectedly, Elder Zhu, the Elder Hu three people. 此刻这天际之上,竟止余下了张衍,祝长老,胡长老三人。 Elder Zhu and Elder Hu each other look at each other one, saw several points of surprised in opposite party eyes, such as accidental/surprised, that this Grand Competition, was Master and Disciples Lineage disciple occupied the first four seating order unexpectedly! 祝长老与胡长老彼此对视一眼,都是看出了对方眼中的几分惊讶,如是不出意外,那此次大比,竟是师徒一脉弟子占了前四座次！ This is more than hundred years first time! 这可是百多年来头一遭！ Actually whose disciple can seize first, but must wait again can see the result. 只是究竟谁人门下能夺第一,还要再等等方能见得分晓。 Arrived 5 to 7 p.m., hears in the valley sound of the bell chime sound, including Zhang Yan, their three people catches the eye to look, sees only in stone door, four escape light departed array gate. 到得酉时,听得谷中一声钟磬音之声,包括张衍在内,他们三人都抬眼看去,只见石门之中,有四道遁光一齐飞出了阵门。 ( to be continued ) (未完待续)
