After Zhang Bayan sends off Xiang Zhanfu, thinks that this matter is unable to act on one's own authority, then comes Zhang Yan Pill Room to report . 章伯彦送走项展蝠后,觉此事无法擅专,便又来张衍丹室禀告。. After meeting, he stated in detail this matter, said: „I have seen both sides with that Ying King, the mediocre generation, this person can actually be called deeply seeks Distant Foreshadow, does not have the person of wisdom, although this time was thrown the prison somehow, but will not resign oneself to extinction, will decide will exhaust all chips to withdraw, according to Zhang will look like, will be very credible.” 见面之后,他将此事详说了一遍,又道:“我与那英王见过两面,就凡俗之辈来看,此人其实称得上深谋远虑,不是无智之人,此次虽不知何故被投大狱,可也绝不会束手待毙,定会用尽一切筹码脱身,依章某看来,十分可信。” Zhang Yan considered a while, said: „That Ying King nearly said that can have the sorrow of life?” 张衍思量了一会儿,道:“那英王近曰可有姓命之忧？” Zhang Bayan replied: „Zhang was held responsible, this person after all is the child of Sovereign of Chu, although was imprisoned by the deciding on the nature of the guilt prison, but the place of circle encirclement actually in little hears mountain immortal cave outside the city, some guarded the imperial palace the guard not saying that every time said had the specialist to deliver the dehydration food, except can not meet secretly, pours does not have the place of treating harshly, if did not have the accident/surprise, him to cross this remaining years of life in the mountain.” 章伯彦回道:“章某已是问过,此人毕竟是楚皇之子,虽是被论罪监囚,可圈围之地却在城外小闻山洞府中,有禁卫看守不说,每曰有专人送去水食,除却不得私自与人相会,倒也无苛待之处,若无意外,是要他在山中渡此余生。” Zhang Yan said immediately: „Not eagerly for a while, after that then Dragon Pillar Daoist Assembly, said this matter.” 张衍当即道:“既不急于一时,那便龙柱法会之后再言此事。” At present only has one month from Dragon Pillar Meeting, such as can repel High-Mountain Pavilion smoothly, after that comes back, plans this matter again well. 眼下距离龙柱之会只有一月,如能得以顺利击退轩岳,那回来之后,再好好筹谋此事。 But if Bell Platform suffers defeat, then lifts to send the destruction to near, will fear will unable to attend to a imprisoned imperial prince, must rescue is also easy. 可若是锺台败北,那么举派覆亡在即,恐也不会顾得上一个被囚的皇子,要解救出来也是容易。 Zhang Bayan smiled at this time gloomily, said: „Can Palace Master, want Zhang first to try that valuable chart to take?” 章伯彦这时阴森一笑,道:“府主,可要章某先设法把那宝图取了来？” Although after Xiang Zhanfu the matter becomes, that chart he, but only Profound Light Realm cultivators, meets misfortune now, if he resorts to some methods, actually does not believe unable to take. By that time regardless of rescues with does not rescue, all said considering as finished by oneself, is the extent that to do whether conforms with morality and justice, is not at him to consider in the range. 项展蝠虽说事成之后再把那图予他,可区区一个玄光修士,如今又是落难,他若动用些手段,却不信取不到手中。到那时无论救与不救,皆由自己这边说了算了,至于如此做是否合乎道义,却不在他思虑范围之内。 Zhang Yan suspends the sleeve, said solemnly: „No need.” 张衍一摆袖,沉声道:“不必。” Even if has nothing this matter, he looked, in Ying King two present as a gift in the Flourishing Snake Loop face, is still willing to rescue by to give help. 即便无有此事,他看在英王两赠蛇环菁的情面上,也愿以施援相救。 Furthermore, in the past Da Mi Ancestral Master, although sets the custom, said that anything hides away magical treasure, High-Mountain Pavilion Bell Platform disciple can not take absurdly. But the custom is dead, the person is lives, if must seek after this treasure, in several thousand years, he actually does not believe no one to drill the funnel. 再则,当年大弥祖师虽定下规矩,说什么秘藏法宝,轩岳锺台弟子不得妄取。可规矩是死的,人是活的,若是非要贪图此宝,数千年中,他却不信无人能钻到漏子。 Because is, therefore, he judges this magical treasure , to obtain, either loaned younger generation disciple of person of treasure in years past, either is the person of fated. 因是之故,他判断这法宝要想取得,要么是昔年借出宝物之人的后辈弟子,要么就是有缘之人。 In brief, this treasure, if your, others cannot take, if not for your, again anxiously is also useless, why also to make lowly one in vain. 总而言之,此宝若是你的,他人也取不走,若不是你的,再急也是无用,又何必枉做小人。 Hopeful Sound Mountain back side of the mountain. 希声山后山。 The Sect Master Qiao meter robe crown, marches into a dark rock cave, the front is pitch-dark, the stopover, only heard that echo spatial vast, paces back and forth, 乔掌门仪袍正冠,独自一人步入一座幽暗石窟之中,面前伸手不见五指,落脚之处,只闻回声空渺,徘徊不去, After moment, before one's eyes emerges the bright, has gone out from the hole , the front presents one along the stone steps that the mountain wall excavates, the side has a waterfall to plunge downward, polishes slippery the stone-paved road smoothly, the edges and corners completely go. 一刻之后,眼前浮出亮光,已是自洞中走出,面前出现一条沿着山壁开凿出来的石阶,旁侧有一道瀑布哗哗暴泻,将石道打磨得湿滑光润,棱角尽去。 When along this group, are not many thorough valley, half double-hour, before one's eyes absent-minded, imitated again suddenly changed a side world, unexpectedly already to a mountain valley. 顺此路而下,不多时深入山壑,再有半个时辰,忽然眼前一个恍惚,仿似换了一方天地,竟已是到了一处山谷之中。 This place clear profound lonesome, the sound of water, resembles the zither | Jean zheng plectrum, delightful interesting to listen, is away from a cliff, when obvious hundred zhang (333 m) high portal, inside room has the cave mist, the transpiration on. 此地清幽深寂,水声沥沥,似琴筝弹拨,悦耳动听,隔着一处断崖,可见一百丈高的洞门,里间时有出岫云烟,蒸腾而上。 Here to return to feather scenery Heavenly Cave greatly, Bell Platform after Da Mi Ancestral Master, for several thousand years, three Heavenly Cave Daoist all in this cultivation. 此处即为大回羽景洞天,锺台自大弥祖师之后,数千年来,三位洞天真人皆是在此修行。 Sect Master Qiao moves to look, sees above the front smooth big stone, big such as the white rhinoceros dormancy of great shape lies, the huge body is fluctuating with the breath slightly, immediately hit to bow, said: „Dao Brother, This Poor Daoist wants to pay a visit Daoist Master, but also looks to pass reported.” 乔掌门挪首瞧了瞧,见前方一块平整大石之上,有一头大如巨象的白犀眠卧,庞大身躯正随着呼吸微微起伏,当下打了个稽首,道:“道兄,贫道欲拜见真人,还望通禀。” That white rhinoceros separated a while, lifts a crack the eyelid reluctantly, seeing is Sect Master Qiao, does not respond, stands up from failure, rested. 那头白犀隔了一会儿,才懒懒把眼皮抬起一隙,见是乔掌门,也不搭理,翻了个身,又睡了过去。 Helpless Sect Master Qiao shakes the head, does not go forward to urge, but sits cross-legged to sit down. 乔掌门无奈摇头,也不上前催促,而是就地盘膝坐下。 Although this strange beast guards a gate in this, but is not voluntary, but was seized by Daoist Master Zheng, is forced to distribute the pledge, under not indignation because of the heart, in some people by each chapter of Bell Platform Sect sees, must dry in the sun him, as soon as dries in the sun, he has also been used. 这头异兽虽是在此守门,可也不是自愿,而是被郑真人捉了,被迫发下誓言,因心下不忿,是以每回锺台派中有人来见,都要晾他一晾,他也早已习惯了。 A white rhinoceros sleep/felt rested four double-hour, finally stretches the four limbs, stands slowly, he is shrugging the hill general body, both eyes are staring Sect Master Qiao, roared, „Daoist Master calls you to go.” 白犀一觉睡了四个时辰,终于舒展四肢,缓缓立起,他耸动着小山一般的身躯,双目瞪着乔掌门,吼了一声,“真人唤你进去。” The sound rumble, shaking the hole capstone gravel exposed to be many. 其声响隆隆,震得洞顶石砾抖落了不少下来。 Sect Master Qiao opened the eye to stand up, hit a say/way bow, then the under foot got up saying that jumped toward the hole. 乔掌门睁目站起,打了一个道躬,便脚下起云,腾身往洞里去。 In this tunnel the concealed hole, like the honey-comb, does not thoroughly understand the way densely, cannot seek the proper way completely. 此地洞中藏洞,密如蜂巢,不是通晓路径的,绝然寻不到正途。 After does not know many holes, finally to the end, above the mountain wall, the white jade picture, high was ten zhang (3.33 m), deeply inserts in the wall, its appearance is big ear daoist facial features is lifelike, before the body, suspends a double dragon to the first furnace, in the whole body bathing dense fog cloud. 穿过不知多少孔穴之后,终是到了尽头,山壁之上,有一尊白玉像,高有十丈,深深嵌入壁中,其形貌乃是一名大耳道人五官栩栩如生,身前摆有一尊双虬对首炉,全身沐浴氤氲雾云之中。 Sect Master Qiao before this jade likely, in the point high-grade incense, in the insertion furnace, waits a bit the moment, then bows for the ritual, said: „Daoist Master, Martial Nephew then must lead the numerous next month to Dormant Star Mountain, contends with High-Mountain Pavilion, after this war, who may decide is the Da Mi Ancestral Master main story.” 乔掌门到此玉像前,点上一株高香,插入炉中,稍等片刻,便躬身为礼,言道:“真人,下月师侄便要率众去往眠星山,与轩岳一决雌雄,此战之后,可定谁人为大弥祖师正传。” That jade looked like an eye to live suddenly, emitted together the rays of light, later a great sound showed from, „you felt relieved to go, in Mountain Sect / Gate had me, may guarantee the no worries.” 那玉像一双眼睛忽然活了过来,放出一道毫光,随后一把宏大声响自里透出,“你放心前去,山门之中有我在,可保无虞。” In the Sect Master Qiao forehead is to actually reappear worried look, he can feel, although is in the Daoist Master Zheng spoken language has nothing the difference, when may come back to come compared with on, the aura actually resembled weakly, 乔掌门眉宇之中却是浮现出一丝忧色,他能感觉,虽是郑真人言语中无有异样,可比上回来前来时,气息却又似弱了许多, This Daoist Master longevity more than 3000, according to logic is the longevity completely, but Bell Platform these millenniums lack successors, if he once depart, will then have by him shortly are sent the danger of annexation. 200 years ago secret Zao this jade picture came out, connects bottom Spiritual Vein, at times warm and nourish, good to extend the life by this. This act also can only postpone 200-300 years, to cultivator, is actually in a flash. 这位真人寿已三千余,照理已是寿尽,可锺台这千年来后继无人,若是他一旦离去,则顷刻就有被他派吞并之危。是以两百年前秘凿了这尊玉像出来,又连通地底灵脉,时时温养,好以此延命。只是此举也不过只能推迟个200-300载,对修道人而言,却是转瞬即过。 Sect Master Qiao bows said: „Martial Nephew takes the liberty to ask, Daoist Master whether......” 乔掌门稽首道:“师侄冒昧一问,真人是否……” Daoist Master Zheng sees in his heart to think, simply said: „I at least may also support for 20 years. This is Grand Master opens in Small World, the bystander does not steal a glance, you felt relieved that is.” 郑真人看出他心中所想,便道:“我至少还可支撑二十载。此为师祖开辟小界之中,外人是窥看不得的,你放心就是。” In the Sect Master Qiao surface sad does not draw back, he hesitated, suddenly deeply does obeisance, said: „Martial Nephew requested earnestly Uncle Master, whether to keep hundred years again.” 乔掌门面上忧愁不退,他迟疑了一下,突然深深一拜,道:“师侄恳请师伯,可否再多留百年。” Bell Platform Sect currently the biggest concealed worry, does not have disciple to be able «Spiral Key Secret Record» cultivation to the boundary of Nascent Soul 3-layer, in sect cultivation base highest is he and Elder Yan, Du Shixun, although is not weak, but cultivation not this sends Technique. 锺台派目前最大隐忧,是没有一个弟子能把《抟纲秘录》修炼至元婴三重之境,门中修为最高的便是他与燕长老,杜时巽虽是不弱,可修炼的并非本派法门。 Even if this time can win High-Mountain Pavilion, suddenly still no one can reach to the boundary of Heavenly Cave, then and other Daoist Master Zheng go, how can also to resist with the south three schools? 此次就算能胜了轩岳,一时间也无人能臻至洞天之境,那么等郑真人一去,又如何能对与南方三派相抗？ A variable, then Python Division that occupies above North Sea, this Monster Division eyes covetously in the entrance, possibly comes up to gnaw one momentarily. 还有一个变数,便是在北海之上盘踞的蟒部,这妖部在门口虎视眈眈,随时可能上来啃一口。 So internal disorder and foreign invasion, if not the aspect to extraordinary not for the situation, he really does not hope puts together life and death in this time and High-Mountain Pavilion. 如此内忧外患,如不是局面到了不得不为的地步,他实在不愿在这个时候与轩岳拼个你死我活。 The Daoist Master Zheng silent moment, hears one deeply to sigh later, „non- is I am not willing, to extend the life several hundred years, this act is not greatly easy, at present I can still emit Atmosphere to deter three schools, said that drags for a long time, is easier to expose weaknesses, 200 years are the pinnacles, go again downward, but are the actions of futile effort.” 郑真人沉默片刻,随后传来一声深深叹息,“非是我不愿,延命数百年,此举已是大不易,眼下我尚能放出气象威慑三派,可时曰拖得越久,越易露出破绽,两百余载已是极致,再往下去,不过是徒劳之举。” Sect Master Qiao said excitedly: „So long as Daoist Master also sends, how dare do others act rashly?” 乔掌门激动道:“可只要真人还派中,他人岂敢妄动？” Daoist Master Zheng did not say. 郑真人只是不言。 Sect Master Qiao trembling sound said: „ Is it possible that isn't able seriously? 乔掌门颤声道:“莫非当真无法了么？ Daoist Master Zheng is thinking deeply about anything, some little time, said slowly: „A law.” 郑真人似在思索什么,好一会儿,才缓缓道:“还有一法。” Sect Master Qiao goes forward several steps, is happy: „Uncle Master invited the word, so long as Martial Nephew can achieve, when vigorously is.” 乔掌门不由上前几步,喜道:“师伯请言,只要师侄能做到,当倾力去为。” Daoist Master Zheng said: „Your this time, if can exceed High-Mountain Pavilion, said that tomorrow my Bell Platform, your available in sect Supreme Treasure white elephant cauldron revolutions will move the destiny unceasingly, in addition in my body, so may then your hoping, but if did that is also forced to exceed one's present income, my Bell Platform must have mishap calamity, you may, if wants.” 郑真人道:“你此次若能胜过轩岳,说明天不绝我锺台,你可用门中至宝白象鼎转挪气数,加于我身,如此就可遂你之愿,可若是这么做了,也不过寅支卯粮,我锺台也必有不测此祸,你可要想好了。” Sect Master Qiao is startled, the congealing eyebrow thought for a long time, to lift the head later, said decisively: „If no Uncle Master oversee Mountain Sect / Gate, Bell Platform is then difficult to base Eastern Victory, if one prospers, all prospers, if one suffers, all suffer, so the law seriously is it may be said that feasible, Martial Nephew would rather try.” 乔掌门一怔,凝眉想了许久,随后一抬首,断然道:“若无师伯坐镇山门,锺台便再难立足东胜,可谓一荣俱荣,一损俱损,如此法当真可行,师侄情愿一试。” He cannot attend to saying now , the matter, only had the before one's eyes difficulty crossed, then can think other. 他现下也顾不得曰后之事,唯有把眼前难关渡过,然后才可以去想其他。 In the Daoist Master Zheng sound cannot listen to the happy anger, only said: „You have decided that that then does, but you must remember, this time spars extremely, then all rest.” 郑真人声音之中听不出喜怒,只道:“你既已下了决心,那便去做,可你要记得,此次斗法不胜,则一切皆休。” Sect Master Qiao for this war, it may be said that the Zen essence uses up the worry, almost also pulls out the Bell Platform family property, his said solemnly: „This Bell Platform lifts to send high and low to hold the heart of To break the cauldrons and sink the boats, so long as that celebrates Daoist Master not to create difficulties, that then approximately.” 乔掌门为了此战,可谓禅精竭虑,几乎把锺台家底也是掏出,他沉声道:“此次锺台举派上下已是抱着破釜沉舟之心,只要那贺真人不从中作梗,那便无虑。” Daoist Master Zheng said: „This you actually do not need to worry, to congratulate Su the age is similar to me, must discuss the age, almost was also this/should completely, a few years ago I in observed the air/Qi in the clouds, actually did not fade as before abundantly, used to extend the law of life, is also no better now compared with it me.” 郑真人言道:“这你却不用担忧,贺粟年岁与我仿佛,要论寿数,差不多也是该尽了,前些年我于云中观气,却依旧盛而不衰,想必也是用了延命之法,比之我如今也好不到哪里去。” Sect Master Qiao feels relieved slightly, just wants to retreat, but before leaving, actually remembers the incident, cannot bear ask: „Under that Dragon Pillar, if really there is Da Mi Ancestral Master to record Dao Scripture?” 乔掌门稍稍宽心,正想退去,可临行前,却想起一事,忍不住问道:“那龙柱之下,果真有大弥祖师手录道书么？” Before this matter is also former generation Sect Master passed away, once had had few words, the concrete reason he actually does not know, afterward contended with High-Mountain Pavilion, because of two schools is almost to encounter the same predicament, by, no matter whether there is, he cannot give away submissively. 此事也是上代掌门故去前,曾有过只言片语,具体情由他却不知,后来又与轩岳相争,因两派几乎是遭遇同一困局,是以不管有无,他都不能拱手让出。 Did not say that must with a High-Mountain Pavilion war, perhaps this time is he comes to here for the last time, then wants to ascertain. 不曰就要与轩岳一战,此次或许是他最后一次来至此处,便想问个清楚。 Daoist Master Zheng said: „This matter non- is the nonsense, in the past before Da Mi Ancestral Master had not become enlightened in the past, once toward a Dragon Pillar roaming, brought two attendant boy specially at that time, one of them was my Bell Platform golden bell Daoist Master afterward, another person is the High-Mountain Pavilion faction receives Kuang Daoist Master.” 郑真人道:“此事非是胡言,当年大弥祖师当年未成道前,曾特意往龙柱一游,那时带了两名随侍童儿,其中一人便是后来我锺台金钟真人,另一人便是轩岳派承匡真人。” Sect Master Qiao nods again and again, said: „Is so.” 乔掌门连连点头,道:“原是如此。” His secretly thought the sound was a pity, two schools of Dragon Pillar nearly several hundred years prohibit dead away, two schools had the opportunity is not missed, actually idea previously one peeped, is unable to start. 他暗道了声可惜,两派龙柱只是近数百年封禁渐弱,两派才有了可趁之机,先前就是有一窥究竟的想法,也无从下手。 Also resulted in the reliable news, he also puts aside the thoughts thoroughly, remaining struggled the life and death height with High-Mountain Pavilion, is saluting to the Daoist Master Zheng jade likely seriously, turns around the portal. 既得了准信,他也就彻底放下心思,剩下就是与轩岳争个生死高低了,对着郑真人玉像郑重施了一礼,转身出了洞门。 After he walked for a long time, that lies in the entrance white rhinoceros said suddenly: „Zheng Weixing, you that clearly is the nonsense.” 他走了许久之后,那趴在门口的白犀忽然道:“郑惟行,你方才那分明是鬼话。” Daoist Master Zheng said calmly: „If otherwise, he must lose the frame of mind, how can also fight High-Mountain Pavilion.” 郑真人平静言道:“若不如此,他自家也要失了心气了,又怎能斗得过轩岳。” White rhinoceros said with a sneer: „But you die late for hundred years, do I want to guard a gate for hundred years for you?” 白犀冷笑道:“可你晚死百年,我岂不是又要多为你守门百年？” Daoist Master Zheng said at this time lightly: „When I urged you waited again some saying that anxiously is not being the good deed.” 郑真人这时淡淡言道:“我劝你还是再等些时曰,急着出去也非好事。” The white rhinoceros doubt said: „Why?” 白犀狐疑道:“为何？” Daoist Master Zheng said: „In the past I once asked the person to look at your destiny with the stargazing book, considers as finished, said during your life, when two lords, I then put you to depart, ran upon your that second master , was still one rode to harness the strength of legs, could not escape the sleepiness of reins imprisoning, was easier more and comfortable than here fears was inferior.” 郑真人道:“当年我曾请人用观星书看过你气数,算了下来,说你一生之中,当有二主,我便是放了你离去,撞上你那第二任主人,也仍是一头骑驾脚力,脱不得缰囚之困,比此处安逸恐更是不如。” ...... ……
