„Mr. Zou?” “邹先生么？” Tao Sheng looked at Zhang Yu, sighed: „Originally young man does not know his whereabouts.” 陶生看了看张御,感叹道:“原来小郎不知道他的下落。” He recalled, said: „ Mr. Zou this person is well-informed, the knowledge is extraordinary, the manner is also humble courteous, I also admire very much, he has a skill, but many people do not know. 他回忆了下,道:“邹先生这个人见闻广博,学识非凡,为人也是谦逊有礼,我也是很佩服的,他有一身本事,可是许多人并不知晓。 You asked where, I not am quite clear, I remember that sees Mr. Zou for the last time, is you follows Mr. Xun to go to cultivate the dao few days the matter. 你问去了哪里,我也不太清楚,我记得最后一次见到邹先生,也是你跟随荀先生去修道没有几天的事。 At that time he received a letter probably, resembled must anxiously to setting up a matter, moreover in a short time did not seem to prepare to come back, therefore presented as a gift the matter in dwelling. He also contributed a number of books for the town/subdues, also delivers to me to take care some books, therefore met with me. ” 那时他好像接到了一封书信,似是要急着离开办一件事,而且短时间内似乎不准备回来了,是故将宅中的物事都是赠了出去。他还替镇里捐了一批书册,又将一些书册交予我保管,所以才与我见了一面。” Zhang Yu said: „Books?” 张御道:“书册？” Tao Sheng said: „Is some archaic preserved book, majority are some native aspect bark books, I had read afterward, above writing taking the form of drawing, although is vivid, but the meaning is obscure, some are the broken flagstone develop the article, the thing very fallen disintegrate.” 陶生道:“都是些古旧存本,大多数是一些土著方面树皮书,我后来翻看过,上面的文字形似图画,虽然生动,但意思晦涩,还有一些是破碎的石板拓文,东西非常零落散碎。” In the Zhang Yu heart moves, said: „Where doesn't these things know now?” 张御心中一动,道:“这些东西不知如今何在？” Tao Sheng said: „Because in the town/subdues moves, I am unable long-time to carry these things along, therefore was I asked somebody to transport Eastern Court Peaceful Sun Academy afterward, was taken care by there. young man, you look to want your adoptive father's whereabout, that might as well turns these books, perhaps you can find some clues..” 陶生道:“因为镇中搬迁,我也无法长久随身携带这些东西,故是我后来托人运到了东庭泰阳学宫,由那里代为保管。小郎,你找要你义父的下落,那不妨翻一翻这些书册,或许你能从中找到一些线索。。” Zhang Yu ponders saying: „Peaceful Sun Academy?” 张御忖道:“泰阳学宫么？” Tao Sheng said at this time: „You wait.” He turned around the vine hut deep place, after a while, put out a wooden chest, went to outside wax to seal, he took out one to fold the book, said: „This was the initial request book, you took away, these things entrusted for dozens years here , should be a thing returning to rightful owner.” 陶生这时道:“你等一等。”他转身了藤屋深处,过了一会儿,拿出了一个木匣,去了外面的蜡封,他取出了一份折册,道:“这是当初的托书,你拿去吧,这些东西在我这里寄放了几十年了,也该是物归原主了。” Zhang Yu puts out a hand to receive, he does not have sharply to turn, but is bowing with hands clasped to Tao Sheng, said: „Student thanks teacher.” 张御伸手接了过来,他没有急着去翻,而是对着陶生一揖,道:“学生谢过老师了。” Tao Sheng said with a smile: „Is only the minor matter, is not obstructing anything. Right, in the past the adoptive father also had/left the wealth to subsidize youngster in many town/subdues, it is said Eastern Court many youngster have received his giving financial aid, the population are also many, does not know that these people have seen your adoptive father, if you in the book collection could not find the clue, but can also go to these people to locate to ask.” 陶生笑道:“只是小事,又不碍着什么。对了,当年你义父还出财资助了不少镇内的年轻人,据说东庭不少年轻人都收到过他的接济,人数也不少,也不知道这些人见没见过你义父,你若是藏书之中找不到线索,还可以去那些人处问问。” Zhang Yu nodded, said: „This matter is not anxious, for a long time has not seen with teacher, the student also wants to talk about old days with teacher, wants in teacher thank your for your hospitality, the student still to remember while convenient, in the past teacher made the vegetables and rice to be especially delicious.” 张御点了点头,又道:“此事不急,许久与老师未见,学生还想与老师叙叙旧,顺便还想在老师叨扰一顿,学生犹记得,当年老师所做菜饭尤为可口。” Youth foster father moves frequently outside, sometimes would return only after three to five days, does not know to make anything, he eats food in Tao Sheng, although will taste many delicacies from now on, but only has the vegetables and rice that in this teacher makes most to make him unforgettable. 少时养父经常在外跑动,有时候要三五天才回来,也不知道做些什么,他就是在陶生家中进食,虽然过后尝了诸多美味,但是唯有这位老师家中所做的菜饭最让他难忘。 Although cultivator does not need to eat food, but this is only lies in choices in their heart, they also approve oneself are „person”, that will then not abandon these, but resembles profound cultivator to maintain personality most community of person. 虽然修道人不需要进食了,但这只是在于他们心中的选择,他们还认同自己是一个“人”,那便不会去摒弃这些,而似玄修正是保持着人的性情最多的一个群体。 Tao Sheng laughingly says: „, So many years you still remember, good, I sang at the remote mountain and stream voice insect for the partner, does not know that present Celestial Xia was what appearance, many which knowledge, you also said with me well.” 陶生失笑道:“没想到,这么多年你还记得,也好,我在深山与溪声虫唱为伴,也不知道如今的天夏是何模样了,又多了些哪些学问,你也和我好好说吧。” At the same time that Zhang Yu stations here, before his another clone has fallen Peaceful Sun Academy at this moment, profound and chaotic cicada wings mark on looks at Peaceful Sun Academy front door, he has not thought beforehand, matter transferred, actually returned to the zero point. 张御在这里驻留下来的同时,他的另一道分身此刻已然落到了泰阳学宫之前,看着泰阳学宫大门上的玄浑蝉翼纹,他事先也没想到,事情转了一圈,却是回到了原点。 Should say, initially he came this to study, this batch of request books then should then be depositing here, but he did not know this matter at that time. 应该说,当初他来此读书的时候,这批托书便应该便已是存放在这里了,只是当时他并不知晓此事。 However on the other hand, at the foster father level, is above has anything, perhaps at his then level, did not look clearly. 但是话说回来,以养父的层次来看,便是上面有什么东西,以他当时的层次,恐怕也看不明白。 He treads the step on, walked into, at this moment in the afternoon, may foresee the young scholars of many difference, occasionally will also see two teacher. 他踏阶而上,一路走入了进来,此刻正值午后,可预见不少出出入入的年轻学子,偶尔还会见到一两个师教。 He has not revealed the form, therefore these people cannot see his, but can unconsciously avoid from his side, oneself actually knows nothing. 他并没有显露出身影,所以这些人都是看不见他的,但是都会不知不觉从他身边避开,自己却是一无所知。 He the good direction, is Peaceful Sun Academy main hall in Kuiwen Hall. 他一路所行方向,正是泰阳学宫的正殿所在奎文堂。 In Kuiwen Hall, Liu Guang is turning in the looks at institute to deliver a letter to the appraisal of teacher to various continents, elaboration article that but also these teacher write. 奎文堂内,柳光正在翻看着院中对各洲投书师教的评议,还这些师教所撰写的论述文章。 Peaceful Sun Academy teacher may now, not only Eastern Court family background, many from the Celestial Xia native place. 泰阳学宫的师教如今可不只是东庭出身了,还有许多就从天夏本土来的。 Eastern Court this place mountain sea amphibious all prepares, the like spring all year round, is scenic and comfortable, the price is cheap, the product is also rich, and gathered regional good food, moreover besides the Celestial Xia local scenery, various native cultures, vast territory with a sparse population, occupies moreover very suitably, therefore causes native many teacher to come this to settle down, and teaches the knowledge. 东庭这地方山海水陆皆备,四季如春,风景宜人,物价便宜,物产也是丰富,且更是汇聚了各地美食,而且除了天夏风物之外,还有各种土著文化,兼之地广人稀,十分宜居,所以引得本土不少师教来此定居,并传授学问。 But Eastern Court Administrative Continent, Peaceful Sun Academy without doubt is peak, in the past and present is so, therefore also hopes entered academy teacher to have many. 而东庭府洲,泰阳学宫无疑是最顶尖的,过去和如今都是如此,故是也希望进入学宫的师教有不少。 But these elaboration article Liu Guang are oneself reads personally, and makes the judgment, never uses somebody as a cat's-paw, 而这些论述文章柳光都是自己一篇篇亲自翻看,并作出评判,从不假手他人, Outside some people said: „Study Supervisor Liu, some people seek.” 外面有人言道:“柳学令,有人找寻。” Liu Guang is concentrating on the looks at article, thinks that is which teacher seeks him, access road/simply said: „Asked him to come.” 柳光专注着看着文章,以为是哪个师教寻他,便道:“请他进来。” As the calm footsteps resound, Liu Guang looks up, was actually one revealed the color of pleasant surprise, stood up saying: „brother Zhang?” 随着沉稳脚步响起,柳光抬头一看,却是一下露出了惊喜之色,不由站起道:“张兄？” Zhang Yu lifts a hand ritual, said: „brother Liu, disappears for a long time.” 张御抬手一礼,道:“柳兄,许久不见了。” When previous time he comes Peaceful Sun Academy, is comes this to teach Celestial Xia ancient word, but, two people have the letter contact in these years occasionally, but Zhang Yu has not mentioned oneself to make anything specifically, Liu Guang also knows him is cultivator, never closely examines. 上次他来泰阳学宫时,乃是来此传授天夏古言,不过这几十年来,两人也偶尔有书信往来,只是张御并未言及自己具体做什么,柳光也知他是修道人,也从不追问。 Liu Guang is also a ritual, said with a smile: „brother Zhang you are an infrequent visitor, please sit down in a big hurry.” He asked Zhang Yu to sit down at the same time, said: „Did brother Zhang have the student who what regarded as important?” 柳光也是一礼,笑道:“张兄你可是稀客,快快请坐。”他请了张御到一边坐下,道:“张兄可是又有什么看重的学生了么？” Zhang Yu said: „Pouring non- is, today is for a private affair, initially in my academy teacher held to take care of some books in Peaceful Sun Academy for my foster father, now I plan to bring back, does not know these books whether also in?” 张御道:“倒非是,今日来乃是为一桩私事,当初我塾中老师替我养父将一些书册托在泰阳学宫之中保管,如今我打算取回,也不知这些书册是否还在？” Liu Guang asked in detail, said with a smile: „Holds the book usually to be about 60 years, that will then not lose. Actually this is also on outwardly some customs, hundred years ago some request books, if unnecessary, will not go deliberately to move, these books that brother Zhang said that should at this moment.” 柳光详细问了下,笑道:“托书通常不过六十载,那便不会有所遗失。其实这也就是明面上一些规矩,百年前的一些托书,若无必要,也不会去刻意动的,张兄所言的那些书册,此刻应该都在。” In Publishing Literature Hall the book collection are innumerable, collects except for itself, is some private donations and others is entrusted with, but was placed outside book cannot look, if not for the precious rare book incomplete book, piling will be some people will not inquire there. 宣文堂内藏书无数,除了本身收藏的,就是一些私人捐赠和他人托管的,只是摆在外面的书就看不过来了,若不是珍贵的孤本残本,堆在那里是根本不会有人过问的。 Liu Guang chatted two with him, said: „My matter is not tense, might as well I accompany brother Zhang to go, took the books.” 柳光与他聊了两句,又道:“我这里事情也不紧张,不妨我陪张兄前往,将书册取了出来。” Zhang Yu gladly complies, although his also status is Peaceful Sun Academy Study Supervisor, but compares also to alarm many people, might as well makes Liu Guang help be more convenient. 张御欣然应下,虽然他也有一个身份是泰阳学宫的学令,但是对照起来也要惊动不少人,还不如让柳光帮忙更为方便。 Two people had/left Kuiwen Hall, comes toward Publishing Literature Hall, on the road Zhang Yu asked: „brother Qu now or Publishing Literature Hall manager?” 两人出了奎文堂,一路就往文宣堂而来,路上张御问道:“屈兄现在还是文宣堂的管事么？” Liu Guang said: „Manager Qu? He, did not go back to care for the aged early.” 柳光道:“屈管事？他早不是了,回去养老了。” The Zhang Yu slight nod, said: „Is brother Qu also over 80-year-old now?” 张御微微点头,道:“屈兄如今也才年过八十吧？” Liu Guang said with a smile: „Manager Qu, although the body is healthy, but the temper is sluggish, now builds a simple hut to occupy in the seashore, heard and looks for one to remarry, there is one son and two daughters.” 柳光笑道:“屈管事虽然身体康健,不过性子懒散,现在在海边结庐而居,听说又找了一个续弦,又有了一儿二女。” Zhang Yu said: „This was also the ideal of brother Qu past.” 张御道:“这也是屈兄以往之理想了。” Liu Guang said: „Right, I and other common people, usually in were also this grade of idea, but Celestial Xia, if inside and outside seeing enemy, can bravely step forward.” 柳光道:“对,我等寻常人,平日里也就是这等想法了,但天夏若见内外之敌,也是能挺身而出的。” Two people spoke, gradually before arriving at Publishing Literature Hall . Liu Guang said: „Present manager mentions is also the brother Zhang student, An Chu'er. Does brother Zhang still remember?” 两人说话之间,逐渐来到了文宣堂前。柳光道:“现在的管事说来也是张兄的学生,安初儿。张兄还记得吧？” Zhang Yu said: „Remembers.” As cultivator, only if his oneself deliberately forgets, each scene in life, only need change mind, may come clearly into view. 张御道:“自是记得。”身为修道人,除非他自己刻意去遗忘,人生之中的每一幕,只需一转念间,就可历历在目。 As two people walk into Publishing Literature Hall, Liu Guang person informed, before long, figure slender female walks from inside. 随着两人走入文宣堂中,柳光着人通传了一声,不一会儿,一个身形窈窕的女子自里走了出来。 She sees Zhang Yu and Liu Guang together here, is unconsciously joyful, immediately to his curtsies, was saying: „mister, the student was courteous.” 她见到张御与柳光一同在此,不觉欣喜,立时对着他万福一礼,道:“先生,学生有礼了。” Zhang Yu looked at several, considers, because takes pill frequently, exercised the breathing technique reason, An Chu'er with saw other day when still differed not in a big way, bright eyes and white teeth, the flesh was bright and clean, the surface seemed like also at most 20 over ages. 张御看了几眼,当是因为经常服用丹丸,锻炼呼吸法的缘故,安初儿与上回见到时依然相差不大,明眸皓齿,肌肤光洁,表面看上去也至多二十出头的年纪。 He said: „Does not need to be overly courteous.” 他道:“不必多礼。” Liu Guang in bypath/side said: „brother Zhang this, is checks the passing elder to keep here request book today.” 柳光在旁道:“张兄今日来此,是查过往一位长辈留在这里的托书。” An Chu'er asked: „Can mister have the request post?” 安初儿问道:“先生可有托贴么？” Zhang Yu took that letter from the sleeve, An Chu'er checked under the above page number, does not need to go to compare with effort, the apparent situation, said: „Can these things, mister take out reads or carries off?” 张御从袖中将那份帖子取了出来,安初儿查了下上面的页号,不必去费力对照,便知情形,道:“这些东西都在,先生是要取出翻看还是带走？” Zhang Yu said: „First look.” 张御道:“先看一看吧。” An Chu'er said: „Good, mister please come along with the student.” 安初儿道:“好,先生请随学生来。” Liu Guang was not accompanying at this time, to his cups the hands, said: „brother Zhang, remembers before leaving, goes to my there to sit again.” 柳光这时也不陪着了,对他一拱手,道:“张兄,记得离开之前再去我那里坐坐。” Zhang Yu complies, walks into Publishing Literature Hall sealed storehouse with An Chu'er, An Chu'er was arriving at stone gate before the page number, said: „mister, holds the book in this place , from the files, in this period and unmanned cleaning up has consulted.” 张御应下,就跟着安初儿走入文宣堂的封库之中,安初儿对着页号来到了一座石门之前,道:“先生,托书都在此间,从档册上看,期间并无人清理查阅过。” Zhang Yu nods, this situation to him is also the good deed, although he can trace passing, but now thing words here, can save one to be troublesome. 张御点头,这情况对他来说也是好事,虽然他可以追溯过往,但是现在东西都在这里的话,也就能省却一番麻烦了。 An Chu'er inserted the door lock a metal key, hears quack several capstan sounds, stone gate, then puts aside slowly. 安初儿将一枚金属钥匙插入了门锁,听得嘎嘎几声绞盘响动,石门便即缓缓移开。 Zhang Yu looks at one inward, although these request books put place of place alone, but the thing are not very many, chocked up the two bookshelf, here also plan, two chairs, should be facilitate the person to consult to set. 张御朝里望有一眼,虽然那些托书单独放了一个置放之地,但东西并不十分多,也就是摆满了两个书架,这里还有一张方案,两把靠椅,应该是方便来人查阅所置。 An Chu'er asked: „Is mister, these?” 安初儿问道:“先生,是这些么？” Zhang Yu looked at several, said: „No mistake.” Under, he then knows that these books after moving into the definite number in ten years no one have come, moreover several book or the oneself youth has looked, can determine that is these things. 张御看了几眼,道:“没有错。”只是一眼之下,他便知道这些书册自搬入进来后的确数十年中无人来过,而且其中有几本书还是自己少时看过的,可以确定就是这些东西。 An Chu'er looked that he seems in the meaning that this glances through, then holds a pearl, placed on the table, caresses with the hand gently, then illuminated entire inner hall instantly, said: „That mister, the student is waiting outside, if there is any need, mister can tell the student.” Then, her curtsies, drew back. 安初儿看他似有在此翻阅的意思,便捧出一枚明珠,摆在了案上,用手轻轻一抚,便霎时照亮了整个内堂,道:“那先生,学生就在外面候着,若有什么需要,先生可以吩咐学生。”说完,她万福一礼,就退出去了。 After Zhang Yu treats it leaves, then walked, the vision sweeps, then books will take. 张御待其离开之后,便是走了上去,目光一扫,便将其中一本书册拿了起来。 ...... …… ...... ……
