slow Elder looks at Li Mu, saw him does not seem like says casually, has saying: „If Sir Li wants to try, after I return to the prominent peak , helping you arrange.” 徐长老看着李慕,见他不像是随便说说,只好道:“如果李大人想要试试,我回主峰后帮你安排。” Has words he, has not said for face-saving consideration. 有句话他碍于面子,并没有说出来。 If he is only „slightly understands” the say/way of talisman, perhaps the first pass/test of trial is not even able to pass. 如果他只是“略懂”符箓之道,恐怕连试炼的第一关都无法通过。 Ancestral Court holds symbol trial every four years a time, this trial, there are selects the disciple goal according to qualification, the trial, will have several thousands each time, even over ten thousand cultivator, from various Great Zhou counties, even is other countries catches up. 祖庭每四年举行一次符道试炼,这次试炼,也有择优选取弟子的目的,每次试炼,会有数千,甚至上万的修行者,从大周各郡,甚至是其他国家赶来。 These cultivator, want to join Talisman Faction, becomes large amount of disciple, takes road of the broader cultivation. 这些修行者,都想要加入符箓派,成为大宗弟子,走上一条更加宽阔的修行之路。 These people who attend the trial, make a long and wearisome journey to come, which having is not to some say/way of confidence own talisman, even so, can through the person of trial, hundred not save one finally. 参加试炼的这些人,长途跋涉而来,有哪个不是对自己的符箓之道有些信心,即便如此,最终能通过试炼的人,百不存一。 Can insist that final person, is the true talisman expert. 能坚持到最后的人,无一不是真正的符箓高手。 The say/way of cultivation, each is very difficult, cultivator can only be skilled in generally together. 修行之道,每一条都十分艰难,修行者一般只能精通一道。 cultivator that is skilled in talisman, in the divine ability technique law, the refine the pill of immortality refiner, on the strategy martial arts, is very difficult to invest lots of time, will not have the too deep attainments. 一名精于符箓的修行者,在神通术法,炼丹炼器,阵法武道上,便很难投入大量时间,不会有太深的造诣。 In slow Chang old eyes, attainments of Li Mu above divine ability technique law, has reached the pinnacle obviously, is talent extremely, if this person is also skilled in the talisman martial arts, that heaven rather is unfair. 在徐长老眼中,李慕在神通术法之上的造诣,显然已经登峰造极,属于绝顶天才之列,这种人若是还精通符箓武道等,那上天也未免太不公平了。 He wants to remind Li Mu, if only „slightly understands” to talisman, the necessity that simply has not attended a symbol trial, thinks or thought that this words extremely offending somebody self-respect, might as well make he himself run into a wall one time, he is clear about in talisman together, many weights. 他本来想提醒李慕,如果对符箓只是“略懂”,根本没有参加符道试炼的必要,想了想还是觉得此话太过伤人自尊,不如让他自己碰壁一次,他便清楚自己在符箓一道,有多少斤两了。 After slow Elder separates, Li Mu to White Clouds Peak flies. 与徐长老分离后,李慕向白云峰飞去。 The tour of this Ziyun peak, is not the harvest does not have. 这次紫云峰之行,并非一点儿收获都没有。 He investigates through the grandson elder, Li Qing 11 years ago to Talisman Faction, moreover enters the sect through the special channel. 他通过孙长老调查到,李清十一年前到符箓派,而且是通过特殊渠道入宗。 Some people wasted the opportunity of becoming Talisman Faction core disciple, with Mei rune/symbol, sent in Talisman Faction her. 有人浪费了成为符箓派核心弟子的机会,用一枚符牌,将她送入了符箓派。 Should record jade Jane/simple who into sends the disciple status information in detail, why does she only have the name only? 原本应该详细记录入派弟子身份信息的玉简,为何唯独她只有名字？ She has what status, the body shouldered anything, why leaves Talisman Faction suddenly ------ In the Li Mu heart emerges riddles, these he remained unknown, only what he can affirm, Li Qing came certainly across anything, moreover is significant, is very likely to endanger to the matter of life. 她到底有何身份,身上又背负了什么,为什么忽然离开符箓派------李慕心中涌现出一个又一个的谜团,这些他都无从得知,他唯一能肯定的是,李清一定是遇到了什么事情,而且是重大的,极有可能危及到生命的事情。 Li Mu is burning with impatience, actually nowhere may check, helpless. 李慕心急如焚,却又无处可查,无能为力。 Suddenly, he thought of anything probably, in the mind emerges a bright. 忽然间,他像是想到了什么,脑海中涌现出一道亮光。 He considered only a moment ago was being worried, unexpectedly forgot an important point. 刚才他只顾着担心了,居然忘记了重要的一点。 So long as found the original owner of that symbol sign, can't ravel the matter of Li Qing? 只要找到那一枚的符牌的原主人,不就能弄明白李清之事？ A symbol trial, four years one time, the person of every year win, is a focus of public attention surely, looking for Li Qing is very difficult, finding him wasn't easy? 符道试炼,四年才有一次,每年的夺魁之人,必定是万众瞩目,找李清很难,找到他还不容易？ Li Mu flew back to the prominent peak, this time, he does not have the yielding the way bell to invite slow Elder, but visits personally. 李慕又飞回了主峰,这次,他没有让道钟去请徐长老,而是亲自拜会。 The quarter of an hour, saw Li Mu respectively again, slow Elder was surprised the different way: „What matter does Sir Li have?” 分别不过一刻钟,就又再次见到了李慕,徐长老诧异道:“李大人还有何事？” Asking that Li Mu comes straight to the point: The „first person of symbol trial, slow does Elder definitely have the impression each time?” 李慕开门见山的问道:“每次符道试炼的第一人,徐长老肯定有印象吧？” „This is natural.” slow Chang Old Daoist: „Four years ago, the first person of symbol trial, the present is prominent peak core disciple, two years ago stepped into the hole to be unreliable, eight years ago the first person of symbol trial, although has not kept Ancestral Court, but actually founded a Talisman Faction branch vein, 12 years ago......, 12 years ago that 12 years ago that with his symbol sign, received in exchange for the opportunity that Li Qing entered sends.” “这是自然。”徐长老道:“四年前,符道试炼的第一人,如今是主峰的核心弟子,两年前就踏入了洞玄,八年前符道试炼的第一人,虽然没有留在祖庭,但却自己开创了一个符箓派的支脉,十二年前……,十二年前那位,十二年前那位,用他的符牌,换取了李清入派的机会。” Li Mu quickly asked: „12 years ago who that is?” 李慕急忙问道:“十二年前那位是谁？” slow Elder shakes the head, said: „Because he has not kept Ancestral Court, has not joined Talisman Faction, the old man does not remember that his information, Sir Li waited a bit a while, I gave your......” 徐长老摇了摇头,说道:“因为他没有留在祖庭,也没有加入符箓派,老夫不记得他的信息了,李大人稍等一会儿,我去给你查查……” He goes out of a palace, a moment later, walks, said: „Checked, that person is Li two, 12 years ago, he only left this name, Li two, Li Qing, Li Qing should not be his daughter......, but, the Li two this names, should be only the aliases, no one can give such strange name.” 他走出道宫,片刻之后,又走回来,说道:“查到了,那人名叫李二,十二年前,他只留下了这个名字,李二,李清,李清该不会是他的女儿吧……,不过,李二这个名字,应该只是化名,没有人会起这么奇怪的名字。” Li Mu said earnestly: „This matter is very important to me, I want to know that the long and short of the story of matter of past years, troubled slow Elder.” 李慕认真说道:“这件事情对我很重要,我想要知道当年之事的来龙去脉,麻烦徐长老了。” slow Elder has not seen Li Mu is so earnest, after thinking, said: „I check, a past symbol trial, who was being responsible, he should compared with many that I knew.” 徐长老还没见过李慕如此认真,想了想之后,说道:“我查一查,当年的符道试炼,是谁在负责,他应该比我知道的多。” He enters a palace, after the moment, walks, takes out talisman, passes message several to that talisman, throws talisman in in the air, this symbol turns into an origami crane, flies the making a debut palace. 他走进道宫,片刻后又走出来,取出一张符箓,对那符箓传音几句,将符箓抛在空中,此符化成一只纸鹤,飞出道宫。 Soon, an old woman flies from outside. 不多时,一名老妪从外面飞进来。 After the old woman comes, asked directly: „Does Senior Brother slow, what matter look for me?” 老妪进来之后,径直问道:“徐师兄,何事找我？” slow Elder sees the old woman, asked: „Sister Chen, 12 years ago symbol trial, I remembers that is you are responsible, you first to the past trial, impression?” 徐长老看着老妪,问道:“陈师妹,十二年前的符道试炼,我记得是你负责的,你对当年的试炼第一,还有印象吗？” The old woman gawked, said: „Why asked this suddenly?” 老妪愣了一下,说道:“为何忽然问起这个？” slow Chang Old Daoist: „First do not ask these, do you have the impression to that person?” 徐长老道:“你先别问这些,你对那人还有没有印象？” The old woman said: „Naturally also has, that person is Li two, I remember for 13 years ago, he wants to deliver a little miss, enters our Talisman Faction, but the aptitude of little miss is not outstanding, therefore we had not agreed at that time.” 老妪道:“自然还有,那人名叫李二,我记得十三年前,他想要送一名小姑娘,入我们符箓派,但那小姑娘的资质并不出众,所以当时我们并未同意。” slow Elder is surprised the different way: „This matter?” 徐长老诧异道:“还有此事？” The old woman nods, said: „Afterward he asked me, how must, Ancestral Court be willing to receive that little miss, I told him, so long as the little miss in a symbol trial, can enter first 30, or he can win in a symbol trial, she can do obeisance into Ancestral Court......” 老妪点了点头,说道:“后来他问我,要怎么样,祖庭才肯收那个小姑娘,我告诉他,只要那小姑娘在符道试炼中,能进入前三十,或者他能在符道试炼中夺魁,她就能够拜入祖庭……” slow Elder asked: „Afterward?” 徐长老问道:“后来呢？” The old woman continues saying: „Continually the qualifications that little miss cultivation, has not attended a symbol trial do not have, Li two, after listening actually, departure of saying a word, until six months, he will really attend the trial unexpectedly, moreover even/including Guoshu will close, will take the leader at one fell swoop, with that Mei rune/symbol, will receive in exchange for that little miss entering the Ancestral Court opportunity, I remember that she went to the Ziyun peak afterward......” 老妪继续说道:“那小姑娘并未修行,连参加符道试炼的资格都没有,倒是那李二,听完之后,一言不发的离开,直到半年后,他居然真的来参加试炼,而且连过数关,一举拿下魁首,用那枚符牌,换取那小姑娘进入祖庭的机会,我记得她后来是去了紫云峰……” 12 years later, she mentioned that Li two, on the face also revealed the color of admiration, said: „That person has the generation of big will, attended the trial six months ago, he did not understand the say/way of talisman, borrowed rune/symbol book from here, I saw him to feel sorry, then passed on an attainment of his book symbol, who will know six months, his symbol attainments, progressed by leaps and bounds, was as good as rune/symbol to say many years of elder unexpectedly gradually, the forcing several thousand symbol experts, captured the trial first, actually that time, the Sect Master True Person special permission, besides that little miss, he himself can also become Ancestral Court core disciple, but was actually rejected by him......” 时隔12年,她说起那李二,脸上还露出钦佩之色,说道:“那人真是有大毅力之辈,参加试炼半年前,他根本不懂符箓之道,还是从我这里借了一本符书,我见他可怜,便传了他一点书符的心得,谁知道半年后,他的符道造诣,突飞猛进,竟然不亚于浸淫符道多年的长老,力压数千名符道高手,一举夺得试炼第一,其实那一次,掌教真人特许,除了那小姑娘之外,他自己也能成为祖庭核心弟子,但却被他拒绝了……” The old woman sighed, said: „12 years ago, if he is willing to keep Talisman Faction, perhaps by his will and natural talent, I sends also to be many a first elder, what a pity......” 老妪叹了口气,说道:“十二年前,若是他肯留在符箓派,以他的毅力和天资,恐怕我派又会多一位首座长老,可惜了……” Li Mu hopeful asking: „Where can senior know this Li two to go to?” 李慕满怀希望的问道:“前辈可知这李二去了哪里？” The old woman shakes the head, said: „Since 11 years ago, the girl will deliver to Talisman Faction, he has not appeared again.” 老妪摇了摇头,说道:“自从十一年前,将那女童送到符箓派后,他就再也没有出现过。” Li Mu does not lose heart continues to ask: „What appearance Li are two long?” 李慕不死心的继续问道:“那李二长什么样子？” The old woman waves, Li Mu at present, presented a picture, the man in picture wears the grey robe, the head wears a bamboo hat, the bamboo hat edge is hanging the black cloth, covers his appearance thoroughly. 老妪一挥手,李慕的眼前,出现了一幅画面,画面中的男子身穿灰袍,头上戴着一个斗笠,斗笠边缘垂着黑布,将他的样貌彻底遮盖。 Li Mu sighed, Talisman Faction the remaining only clues, broke. 李慕叹了口气,符箓派所剩下的唯一的线索,就这么断了。 When returns to White Clouds Peak slightly to build, Han Zhe and Sister Qin have left. 回到白云峰小筑时,韩哲和秦师妹已经离开了。 Before Li Mu walks, traded his liquor, at the Han Zhe alcohol capacity, few cups will be drunk, does not know that Sister Qin can seize the opportunity. 李慕走之前,换了他的酒,以韩哲的酒量,没几杯就会醉,也不知道秦师妹能不能把握住机会。 Li Mu does not have the thoughts to be Han Zhe was worried, at heart thinks only has the Li Qing matter. 李慕没心思为韩哲担心,心里想的只有李清的事情。 A year ago, when Li Mu when her side, but also is only small bailiff, could not help her anything. 一年之前,李慕在她身边时,还只是一个小小的捕快,帮不了她什么。 Now, he has protected her ability, but actually seeks her nowhere. 现在,他已经具备了保护她的能力,但却无处寻她。 The destiny often so plays with. 命运时常如此玩弄于人。 When she makes to leave the decision of Talisman Faction , is very certainly painful. 她做出离开符箓派的决定时,一定也很痛苦。 Therefore, the symbol sign of this symbol trial, Li Mu exerts its utmost. 所以,这一次符道试炼的符牌,李慕势在必得。 This matter, in he planned beside, Li Mu thinks, decides to inform Empress one. 这件事情,在他原本的计划之外,李慕想了想,决定还是告知女皇一声。 Li Mu puts out the conch, stimulates to movement after magic power, asked in a soft voice: „Your majesty, in busy?” 李慕拿出海螺,用法力催动之后,轻声问道:“陛下,在忙吗？” Quick, in the conch broadcasts the Empress sound: „Do you want to come back?” 很快的,海螺里就传来女皇的声音:“你要回来了吗？” Li Mu coughs lightly, somewhat awkward saying: „It is not, the feudal official returns to Divine Capital, may wait for some days, several days later, will be a Talisman Faction symbol trial, the feudal official will plan to attend this trial......” 李慕轻咳一声,有些尴尬的说道:“不是,臣回神都,可能还要等些日子,再过几日,是符箓派的符道试炼,臣打算参加此试炼……” „Symbol trial?” In the conch, Empress sound, asked: „A symbol trial is not Talisman Faction to select disciple supposes, you have promised Us, will not join Talisman Faction......” “符道试炼？”海螺内,女皇声音一顿,问道:“符道试炼不是符箓派为了选取弟子而设的吗,你答应过朕,不会加入符箓派的……” Li Mu explained hastily: „It is not such that your majesty thinks, your majesty first listens to the feudal official to explain......” 李慕连忙解释道:“不是陛下想的那样,陛下先听臣解释……” Spoke with Empress, Li Mu always felt somewhat strangely, as if the status of two people in turn. 这么和女皇说话,李慕总觉得有些奇怪,似乎两个人的身份反过来了。 Afterward he realized, this is he should have the status that he can finally by this normal status and Empress speech. 随后他才意识到,这才是他应该有的身份,他终于可以以这种正常的身份和女皇说话了。 Empress silent moment, said: „You explained.” 女皇沉默了片刻,说道:“你解释吧。” Li Mu thinks, said: „Feudal official felt, Great Zhou now the internal disorder and foreign invasion, New Party, the old party, the academy, with your majesty is not a heart, is loyal to your majesty domestic protection only, the strength is extremely also small and weak, Imperial Court seem like the official to be numerous, but actually only then your majesty person is supporting with hardship, if Talisman Faction can support your majesty, your majesty did not need a person is so laborious......” 李慕想了想,说道:“臣是觉得,大周如今内忧外患,新党,旧党,还有书院,和陛下都不是一条心,唯一忠于陛下的内卫,实力又太过弱小,朝中看似臣子众多,但其实只有陛下一个人在苦苦撑着,符箓派如果能支持陛下,陛下就不用一个人那么辛苦了……” Changlegong, in the heart of Zhou Wu appears warm feeling, even the vision was also gentle, said in a soft voice: „These sect, always aloof extra mundane, no matter the dynasty rise and fall, they are not possible to meddle toward the bureau......” 长乐宫,周妩的心中浮现出一丝暖意,连目光也柔和了许多,轻声道:“这些宗门,向来都超然世外,不管王朝兴衰,他们是不可能插手朝局的……” Li Mu said: „Feudal official can first become Talisman Faction disciple, then slowly cultivation, if later has the opportunity to step into the sixth boundary, can become a peak seat of honor, had certain right to speak in Talisman Faction, if the feudal official has the opportunity to step into the seventh boundary, becomes Talisman Faction Sect Master hopefully, when the time comes, the feudal official and entire Talisman Faction, are your majesty solid backing......” 李慕道:“臣可以先成为符箓派弟子,然后慢慢修行,如果以后有机会踏入第六境,就能成为一峰首座,在符箓派也就拥有了一定的话语权,如果臣有机会踏入第七境,就有希望成为符箓派掌教,到时候,臣和整个符箓派,都是陛下坚实的后盾……” Slightly builds beside, slow Elder takes a trial letter, a foot had made great strides forward the courtyard, hears the Li Mu words, on the face appears the awkward color, entering is not, drawing back is not...... 小筑之外,徐长老拿着一张试炼函,一只脚已经迈进了院子,听到李慕的话,脸上浮现出尴尬之色,进也不是,退也不是…… Li Mu also discovered behind unusuality, when has turned around, with slow Elder vision looking at each other, the expression gradually becomes awkward. 李慕也发现了身后的异常,转过身时,和徐长老目光对视,表情逐渐变得尴尬。
