The emperor cut Immortal whole city to look for the Immortal matter, under handed down quick spread, the common people were clear, since that Immortal had been in a rage by the emperor cutting, will not go back mostly. 皇帝斩了仙人又满城找仙人的事情,在口口相传之下很快就传开了,就连寻常老百姓都清楚,那仙人既然已经被皇上一怒之下给斩了,多半是不会回去了的。 This matter cardinal virtues emperor gave Yan Chang, the latter is also the appearance detail that informs each messenger and official old beggar, making them go to each city the person of numerous positions of begging to have a look. 这件事元德帝交给了言常,后者也不过是告知各个差役和官员老乞丐的模样细节,让他们去各个城中行乞之人众多的位置多看看。 Then is the offical mission attendant goes to various places to inquire the time, Yan Chang also requests everyone benign not devils, is more impossible to post the portrait of beggar everywhere, this in the final analysis what looks is expert, Yan Chang really does not dare to look for the way of offender. 便是官差去各处询问的时候,言常也要求所有人和颜悦色不可凶神恶煞,更不可能到处张贴乞丐的画像,说到底这找的是高人,言常实在是不敢以找钦犯的方式来。 Until that night, the obtained news were actually many, some people heard that which street the old beggar presented that also heard that it appeared in some teahouse, even also some people „finding” the old beggar, waited for Yan Chang to look in the past, but was an ordinary beggar old man, one generation of meter/rice also sent. 直到当天晚上,得到的消息倒是不少,有人听说老乞丐出现哪个街头,也听说其出现在某座茶楼,甚至还有人“找到”了老乞丐,等言常过去一看,不过是一个普通的乞丐老头罢了,给人一代米也就打发了。 Waits to handle matter of this day, all nobles and ministers start to turn toward the imperial palace direction to walk, because the long life festival banquet must start. 等处理完这一天的事,所有王公大臣都开始向着皇宫方向走,因为万寿节大宴就要开始了。 Although the cardinal virtues emperor received the greatest stimulation in the morning, but, he changed that dignity callous 95 revering at night, as if daytime frustration has not manifested in its body. 虽然元德帝早上才受了莫大的刺激,但到了晚上,他又变回了那个威严冷酷的九五之尊,仿佛白天的挫败感一点都没有在其身上体现。 Before the evening banquet starts, Yan Chang was also incurred by the secret to the governing study room questions, did not ask that the process only asked the result, let prepare a lot of words Yan Chang unable to say second, can only disturbed reply „fruitless”. 在晚宴开始之前,言常还被秘密招到御书房问话,不问过程只问结果,让准备一肚子话的言常说不出第二句,只能忐忑的回答一句“无果”。 Fortunately this time had not vented anger to determine guilt actually, cardinal virtues emperor actually are also clearer the matter, can only encourage Yan Chang several to feast with him together, makes continuously with trepidation too often causes to feel extremely flattered. 所幸这次倒是没被迁怒定罪了,元德帝其实自己心里也清楚一些事,只能勉励了言常几句才同他一起赴宴,令一直提心吊胆的太常使受宠若惊。 The entire long life festival banquet is very grand, because is the 70 th birthday, therefore was bigger than the old times scale. 整个万寿节大宴还是十分隆重的,而且因为是70大寿,所以比往年的规模更大。 Even the emperor still confers „Heavenly Master” at the banquet directly, the remaining 14 master everyone must attain „Heavenly Master” the number, enjoys the gold 1200. 甚至皇帝还在宴席上直接册封“天师”,剩下的十四个法师人人得获“天师”之号,赏黄金千两。 Right, truly was left over 14 people, having and before the evening banquet starts says is unaccustomed to the climate, cannot be laid up in the post house. 没错,确实是剩下了十四人,有个和尚在晚宴开始前说是水土不服,在驿馆卧病不起。 Yan Chang also asked the court physician to look specially in the past, diagnosed its has being ill with vomiting and diarrhea sickness, was also very weak. 言常还专门找御医过去看过,确诊其有上吐下泻之症,身体也十分虚弱。 Emperor Yuande did not report to the remaining people too in a big way hopes, got sick the person is not more impossible to enter his eye, therefore also excluded his conferring rank and title qualifications directly, but can also omit a thousand gold (daughter). 元德帝本身对剩下的人也不报太大希望,一个自己都病得要死的人更不可能入得了他的眼,所以也就直接剔除了他的册封资格,还能省去一千金。 Naturally, this remaining 14 people of actually majorities are also for „Heavenly Master” title, simply not for the heart of senior emperor working. 当然,这剩下十四人其实大部分也是只是为了“天师”称号,根本没有为老皇帝效力之心。 When inviting palace inside Jiao cup of whole body of ministers changes put on a show of peace and prosperity, in the law platform nearby post house, an originally being laid up pale good-looking monk, traces somewhere secretly lifted the own quilt. 在宴请群臣的殿堂里交杯换盏歌舞升平之时,某处法台边上的驿馆内,一个原本卧病脸色苍白的俊俏和尚,偷摸摸掀开了自己的被子。 Because is the long life festival, the person in post house was also bestowed the food and wine by above, many people are also drinking to eat the meat, but a houses this pitch-dark piece that the monk is. 因为是万寿节,驿馆内的人也被上头赐了酒食,很多人也在喝酒吃肉,而和尚所在的房舍这则黑漆漆的一片。 The monk mew mew from the bed, dresses quietly the clothing cassock, grips the tying up rope on shoes again, then takes up the own monk's staff to the corner, wears the own bamboo hat. 和尚悄咪咪从床上下来,穿戴好衣物袈裟,再扎好鞋子上的绑绳,然后到墙角拿起自己的禅杖,又戴好自己的斗笠。 „Fine Omiya Buddha...... slides!” “善哉大光明佛……还是溜吧！” He is soundless to gate near, „” opened the door. 他蹑手蹑脚的到门边,“吱呀”一声打开了门。 „Aiyu......!” “哎呦……！” Outside opens the door sees is standing a complexion bad old man, after that imposing manner frightens the monk in a panic, fled far more than one zhang (3.33 m). 才开门就见到外头站着一个面色不善的老者,那股气势吓得和尚仓皇后窜了一丈多远。 „Ahem snort/hum...... the monk, do you want to go to do?” “哼哼哼……和尚,你要去干嘛？” On the Buddhist priest face not red is not dry, but under the bamboo hat the bare top of the head actually emits the close sweat. 僧人脸上不红不燥,但斗笠下光秃秃的头顶却冒出细密的汗水。 „Fine Omiya Buddha...... monk this is about to leave the post house, is the donor?” “善哉大光明佛……小僧这是准备离开驿馆,施主是？” Outside the post house complexion bad person old dragon Ying Hong, seeing monk appearance is the air/Qi does not hit one. 驿馆外面色不善的人正是老龙应宏,见和尚这幅模样更是气不打一处来。 „Didn't you... the long life banquet in good condition you go, install to get sick then sneak off?” “你…好端端的万寿大宴你不去,装了病然后溜走？” „...... The donor are you person of Great Zhen royal government?” “呃……施主您是大贞朝廷的人？” In monk heart disturbed, the Great Zhen royal government has such character, does that senior emperor also serve a need to seek the immortal everywhere? 和尚心中忐忑不已,大贞朝廷有这样的人物,那老皇帝还用得着四处求仙？ ‚Fine Omiya Buddha, this was too absurd!’ ‘善哉大光明佛,这太荒唐了！’ „Hehe... I? Great Zhen royal government? Hehe......” “呵呵…我？大贞朝廷的？呵呵……” old dragon smiled to the air/Qi, puts out a hand to grasp toward that monk, stands in the entrance obviously, the arm has not lengthened, the law of more useless what ingestion, but the space of entire house seems is compressed, the monk pastes the wall is also being evades not to be possible to evade, was held the neckband by old dragon directly. 老龙给气笑了,伸手就朝那和尚抓去,明明站在门口,手臂也没延长,更没用什么摄取之法,但整个房屋的空间好似被压缩,和尚贴着墙也是避无可避,直接被老龙一把抓住领口。 Afterward seems the eagle to catch the chicken to be the same, old dragon carries this monk one step to step forward the post house, soars to fly away directly. 随后好似老鹰抓小鸡一般,老龙拎着这个和尚一步跨出驿馆,直接腾空飞走。 „Aii yeah...... donor, Immortal Elder! Has the words saying that has the words to say! The monks will not fly to lift the technique!” “哎哎哎……施主,仙长！有话好说,有话好说啊！小僧不会飞举之术啊！” Does not dare to wield in the in the air monk hands and feet randomly, instead grasps old dragon arm stubbornly, for fear that falls down, this hundred zhang (333 m) upper air falls falls, did not meet a cruel death is also paralyzed. 在空中的和尚手脚都不敢乱挥,反而死死抓紧老龙的手臂,生怕掉了下去,这百丈高空摔落,不是粉身碎骨也是半身不遂了。 This disaster tribulation previous point track does not have likely, in any event cannot calculate that the monk was not clear when offended this cultivated/repaired for the character. 这灾劫此前一点迹象都没,无论如何都算不到啊,和尚更不清楚自己什么时候得罪了这等修为的人物。 old dragon brings this and still at in the air soared a small meeting, finally flies sky over the imperial palace, points below dance noise to say. 老龙带着这和尚在空中腾飞了一小会,最后飞到皇宫上空,指着下方的歌舞喧嚣道。 „This?” “这是哪？” The monk felt the strong winds of night upper air to swallow a saliva. 和尚感受着夜晚高空的狂风咽了口口水。 „Imperial palace.” “皇宫。” „Un, below just conferred Heavenly Master, you must ask for one, relax, I throw down unable to plunge to death you you, moreover you appear, that senior emperor seals to enjoy you absolutely!” “嗯,下面刚刚册封完天师,你要不要去讨一个,放心,我把你丢下去摔不死你,而且你这么出现,那老皇帝绝对封赏你！” „No, left! Immortal Elder do not play tricks on the monk, when the monk offended you, dying also to the sentence understands that the words aren't?” “别,别了吧！仙长您就别戏弄小僧了,到底小僧是什么时候得罪了您,死也得给句明白话不是？” Looks appearance that this monk does not hope, old dragon also shouts the air vent gentle mood. 看着这和尚死活不愿的样子,老龙也是呼出了一口气平缓情绪。 „You must really not hope, when Heavenly Master, nine days ten meetings time what Saint you reveal, did you eat to the full were supporting? I and Ji Yuan hit gambling a time, was supposing wins steadily, afterward feels should be even, good, very good, just now has a feeling in the national capital mansion nether world heart, calculates discovered I lost bewilderedly, being puzzling, originally is your monk feigns illness unexpectedly!” “你要真不愿当天师,九天十会的时候你显什么圣,你吃饱了撑着？我和计缘打一次赌,原先估摸着稳赢,后来觉着应该是平,好,很好,方才在京畿府阴司心有所感,一算发现我莫名其妙输了,百思不得其解,原来是你个和尚居然装病！” The monk thinks quickly in emergencies, finds the opportunity to rush to open the mouth to say certainly. 和尚急中生智,找准机会赶忙开口道。 „Immortal Elder, you, since makes a bet, naturally must be willing to bet to concede, you this is cheating now, is not applicable, is not applicable!” “仙长,您既然与人打了赌,自然要愿赌服输啊,您现在这是在作弊,使不得,使不得啊！” old dragon is in the heart somewhat is also depressed, grabs the monk to frighten his, if this monk has been self-poise will be very definitely annoyed, now looks at his flustered appearance, disappeared on the contrary many air/Qi. 老龙也就是心中有些郁闷,抓着和尚吓唬他一下,若这和尚一直镇定自若肯定会很恼火,现在看他慌张的样子,反倒消了不少气。 Also no longer spoke, raised this monk to welcome the emperor the wind to fly to the national capital mansion, then escaped into the nether world. 也不再说话,提着这和尚直接驾着风飞向了京畿府,然后遁入了阴司之中。 Few days ago the generation of grasped demon was also all detained in the nether world, naturally all was the soul body, the true body mostly already by the dragon flood dragon digestion. 前些日子被抓的邪魔之辈也全都被扣押在阴司,当然全是魂体,真身多半已经被龙蛟消化了。 This is the first time that the monk entered to the nether world hell in truly, one share intense gloom to the body, in the mouth talked over „Ming Dynasty king Buddha” unceasingly. 这是和尚第一次真正进入到阴司地府之中,一股子强烈的阴气冲身,口中不断念叨“大明王佛”。 In the nether world City God palace, giant circular mist fills the air in the palace center, presents a scene in the mist center, is the scene of nether world punishment prison most deep place. 阴司城隍殿内,一片巨大的圆形雾气在殿中心弥漫,在雾气中心呈现出一片景象,正是阴司刑狱最深处的景象。 A large crowd is watching in the City God main hall, numerous Jade Heart cultivator, has the nether world ghosts and gods and national capital mansion City God , some obviously are the form transformation monster people. 一大群人正在城隍大殿中观看,有一众玉怀修士,有阴司鬼神和京畿府城隍,也有一些明显是化形妖物的人。 „Father, you go out to do suddenly , shouldn't this monk in the imperial palace?” “爹,您突然出去干嘛啊,呃,这和尚不应该在皇宫吗？” dragon child Ying Feng loves to talk about somebody's most vulnerable points, but this matter also has nothing to conceal, old dragon is also willing to bet the dragon of conceding. 龙子应丰哪壶不开提哪壶,不过这事也没什么好隐瞒的,老龙也是愿赌服输之龙。 „This monk feigns illness has not gone to the imperial palace, cannot obtain Heavenly Master that the senior emperor confers rank and title ‚’ the position.” “这和尚装病没去皇宫,没能得到老皇帝册封的‘天师’之位。” „, Isn't this good?” “不是吧,这也行？” Nearby dragon daughter also loses the sound said. 一旁龙女也是不由失声道。 „Can this also lose?” “这也能输？” Then is bewildered except for the person who some do not know the circumstances of the matter, understood that this matter's several people look to Ji Yuan at the same time. 然后除了一些不知情的人莫名其妙,了解此事的几人都看向一边的计缘。 Ji Yuan has a look at the monk who this cup of old dragon raise, the latter salutes to a numerous immortal monster and ghosts and gods, cultivates since Buddha, this scene let alone has seen, never imagined, felt that on and bright king Buddha stands is the same, is one crowd. 计缘看看这杯老龙提回来的和尚,后者正对着一众仙妖和鬼神行礼,修佛至今,这种场面别说见过,想都没想过,感觉就和明王佛站在一起一样,还是一群。 „Monk is participates in water and land Way Conference, now Way Conference finished, is about to leave Capital City, does not know whether to be accommodating?” “小僧不过是来参加水陆法会,现在法会结束,准备离开京城,不知可否行个方便？” Ji Yuan looks at this monk disturbed appearance, smiles to open the mouth to say to him. 计缘看着这和尚忐忑的样子,冲他一笑开口道。 „Grandmaster, you do not think that Venerable Ying is really only the vitality/angry, therefore caught the nether world you?” “大师,你不会以为应老先生真的只是生气,所以将你抓到了阴司？” Isn't? 难道不是？ „...... Venerable bearing extraordinary, naturally cannot......” “呃……老先生气度不凡,自然不会的……” In monk heart surprise, the words that but the mouth said considered the reality. 和尚心中诧异,可嘴里说出来的话还是十分考虑现实的。 „Grandmaster please look!” “大师请看！” Ji Yuan puts out a hand to aim in the City God palace the scene in mist, although does not have the sound, but in the scene is completely some monster soul wicked mortal forms suffers the criminal law the sad scene, painful shouting shows through the expressions of these fierce terrors. 计缘伸手指向城隍殿内雾气中的景象,虽然没有声音,但景象中尽是些妖魂恶魄遭受刑法的惨像,痛苦的嘶吼通过那些狰狞恐怖的表情展现出来。 „These mix in Great Zhen the generation of demon, the generations of many fishing in troubled waters, some are naturally unusual with the foot, although could not support the pain of punishment prison to confess something, but they knew also limited.” “这些乃是混入大贞的邪魔之辈,其中自然有不少浑水摸鱼之辈,却也有一些跟脚不同寻常,虽然撑不住刑狱之苦交代了一些事,但他们自身知道的也有限。” old dragon is also cold snort/hum a sound said. 老龙也是冷哼一声道。 „My Eastern Earth Cloud Continent has the resembles of turbulence, you are north Liang Guo Daliang Temple Buddhist priest, wanders to arrive at Great Zhen, didn't how many years have?” “我东土云洲有动荡之像,你是廷梁国以北的大梁寺僧人,云游来到大贞,有多少年没回去了？” After the Buddhist priests knit the brows the consideration, returns. 僧人皱眉思量后回到。 „Monk is 42-year-old now, calculates that must have 17 years.” “小僧如今四十有二,算来应当有十七年了。” Although clear(ly) knew in this palace is one crowd of ages does not know young old monster, but this monk pretty appearance of extremely „non- middle age”, made Ji Yuan look at his one eyes subconsciously much. 虽然明知道这殿内全是一群年龄不知道几岁的老怪物,但这个和尚俊秀的面貌太过“不中年”,还是让计缘下意识多看了他一眼。 „Un, you should go back to have a look, although we are not clear about behind these evil monster involves to be, but has a big part to come from north Liang Guo the boundary with the Tianbao country that borders on.” “嗯,那你该回去看看了,虽然我们不清楚这些妖邪背后的更多牵扯所在,但其中有不小的一部分都来自与廷梁国北境接壤的天宝国。” „In Tianbao country!? How can?” “天宝上国！？怎么会？” „Hehe, how to have so many evil monster?” “呵呵,怎么会有这么多妖邪？” Hears old dragon words, this monk nods subconsciously, the population of Tianbao country's in boundary north Liang Guo is honored as „on country”, where that naturally cannot miss to goes, may present so many making a name evil monster to here, definitely has problems. 听到老龙的话,这和尚下意识点点头,天宝国在廷梁国北境的人口中被誉为“上国”,那自然不会差到哪去,可出现这么多成了气候的妖邪到这边来,肯定是出了什么问题。 () ()
