„Walks, I and others entered a city......” Xiao Hua to have a look at some setting sun of falling to wave to say. “走,我等进城……”萧华看看已经有些落下的夕阳挥手道。 This big city is Copper Pillar Country Capital City, the nature interrogation is also strict. Four people arrive at the city gate unable to locate to anticipate the soldier who was guarded the city gate blocks. This Copper Pillar Country is Confucianism Cultivator founds a nation, does not respect Dao School, Xiao Jian is asked the full head sweat, but fortunately, his officer article is normal, in Mountain Stream Country all is also normal, has spent some silver money, entered the city gate smoothly. 这大城乃是铜柱国的都城,自然盘问也是严密。四人到得城门之处不出意料被看守城门的兵丁挡住。这铜柱国乃是儒修立国,并不尊重道家,萧剑被人问得满头大汗,不过还好,他的官文都是正常,在溪国的一切也是正常,又是花费了一些银钱,还是顺利的进了城门。 An entering a city gate, present lively and was different from the city gate outside. 一进城门,眼前的热闹又是跟城门之外不同了。 Outside city gate, but is village, has plainness that common Xiao Hua and the others see. Entered the city gate, looks like similarly is also some villages, some rivers, but the clothing of person, or the makings of person with city outside different, especially in these villages not outside same smoke from kitchen chimneys curling with city, except for several some smokes from kitchen chimneys, many does not only have the appearance of smoke and fire. 城门之外,不过就是乡村,有寻常萧华等人所见的质朴。进了城门,看起来同样也是有些村庄,有些河流,但无论是人的衣装,或者人的气质都跟城外不同,特别是这些村庄之内并不跟城外一样的炊烟袅袅,只除了几处有些炊烟,多处并没有烟火的样子。 Actually in the sides of these rivers , many children under Sir's leadership, full of enthusiasm is taking the small lamps of some fist sizes, the throwing into water in carelessly, wants to look that these small lamps go downstream, the thing that what a pity these manufacture in a rough way, mostly just got wet to sink under water, stirs up the child to call. 倒是在这些河流之侧,又是有不少孩童在大人的带领之下,兴致勃勃的拿着一些拳头大小的小灯,胡乱的扔进水里,想看着这些小灯顺流而下,可惜这些粗制滥造的东西,大多刚刚沾水就沉到水底,惹得孩童嗷嗷直叫。 „These are Copper Pillar Country rich people in the suburb manor!” Looks that Xiao Hua goes to mountain village the vision in all directions, Xiao Jian light saying, „their hands grasp the big wealth, wants the village leisurely and carefree life, may unable to move to the city outside truly, even other villages, in the Capital City place of picture edge will be the villages, crosses life that will be wanting.” “这些都是铜柱国大户人家在郊区的庄园！”看着萧华将目光投向四处的山村,萧剑淡淡的说道,“他们手握大笔财富,又是想要乡村悠闲的生活,可并不能真正迁到城外,甚至别的乡镇,就会在都城的边缘之处画地为庄,过着自己想要的生活。” Also was rides a horse the less than half double-hour, the road of under foot does not know when changed into the azure flagstone, the two sides trees were also neat, lanterns also hung in the dim light of night on the tree, looked from the distant place, just as Flickering lights Stars Herd. 又是骑马走了小半个时辰,脚下的路不知何时换成了青石板,两边的树木也整齐起来,一盏盏的灯笼也在夜色中挂在了树上,从远处看去,正像闪烁的群星。 Looks at all around construction again, similarly is big, can it be that these look like are very in grand construction Capital City the famous shop, now is decorated with lanterns and colored streamers, the gateway starts greatly, many people strolled above the main road are strolling on own initiative are not going. 再看四周的建筑,同样高大起来,这些看起来很是宏伟的建筑莫不是都城之内有名的店铺,如今又皆是张灯结彩,门户大开,不少人在大路之上逛着逛着就不自觉的进去了。 People were many, Xiao Hua and the others naturally cannot ride a horse, Liu Yi is very smart received the Xiao Hua reins, pulls the steed to walk in Yuan Ya behind. 人多了,萧华等人自然不能骑马,柳毅很是机灵的将萧华的缰绳接过,牵着骏马走在渊涯身后。 Sees with own eyes nearby has an inn, there are many people to seek lodging for the night there, but Xiao Jian only looked at one to pass through, foundation not any stay. Xiao Hua thinks that he reveals here person to be many. Also, was several, Xiao Jian had looked that did not look, Xiao Hua greatly was unconsciously wonderful, asked: „Xiao Jian, the weather early, Xiao has not needed to rest now, you and others must stay! Don't you look for an inn?” 眼见旁边有个客栈,有不少的人在那里投宿,可萧剑只看了一眼就是走过,根本没有任何的停留。萧华以为他显这里人多。可是,又是过了几家,萧剑连看都不看,萧华不觉大奇了,问道:“萧剑,如今天色已经不早了,萧某不必休憩,你等可是要住宿的啊！你不找个客栈么？” „Hehe, the Immortal Elder long time does not tread on Mortal World, feared that does not know. If the common day, I and others can put up at a inn but actually. But today is Ghost Festival, is the holiday of common custom person, is my Dao School sacrificial offering, I and others, since is Dao School ** should put up for the night in a temple to Daoist Temple, cannot pass the night beside Daoist Temple!” The Xiao Jian forced smile said. “呵呵,仙长久不履红尘,怕是不知道的。若是寻常日子,我等倒可以投店的。可今日乃是中元节,是世俗人的一个节日,更是我道家的一个祭祀,我等既然是道家**就应该到道观之内挂单,不能在道观之外过夜！”萧剑苦笑道。 Dao Sect also so many customs that „good......” Xiao Hua unable to think of reduce, have unexpectedly nods. May immediately, see with own eyes the person to be many, Xiao Jian starts to inquire, but sees Xiao Jian dao robe, these people probably saw the fly, the hurried avoidance, foundation does not give the opportunity that Xiao Jian opens the mouth. “好……”萧华想不到已经沦落的道宗居然还有这么多的规矩,只好点头。可随即,眼见人多了,萧剑开始打探,但是见到萧剑身上的道袍,这些人都好像见到了苍蝇,急忙躲避,根本不给萧剑开口的机会。 „Priest Xiao, small going!” Liu Yi looked at moment some not to endure, said in a low voice. “萧道长,还是小的去！”柳毅看了片刻有些不忍,低声说道。 „Un!” Heard complying of Xiao Jian, Liu Yi has given Yuan Ya the reins of steed, the son disappeared in the crowd speedily, but was the free time of half tea, Liu Yi came back, said a hand finger/refers of front, „Priest, the front two miles had West Spiral Ridge, above had Seven Yang Daoist Monastery!” “嗯！”听到了萧剑的答应,柳毅将骏马的缰绳交给了渊涯,一溜烟儿消失在人群之中,不过是半盏茶的工夫,柳毅已经回来,将手一指前方道,“道长,前方两里有个西螺岭,上面有个七阳观！” Immediately is arrives in front of Xiao Hua, said respectfully: „Priest Xiao, small just also had inquired, tonight happen to have Bid Gathering, in the Ming Yue / Bright Moon work place, that place is away from Seven Yang Daoist Monastery too to be not far. However now the double-hour also early, are you go to Seven Yang Daoist Monastery or go to the Ming Yue / Bright Moon work place?” 随即又是走到萧华面前,恭敬道:“萧道长,小的刚刚也打探了,今夜正好有个竞买会,就在明月坊,那处距离七阳观不算太远。不过如今时辰还早,您是去七阳观还是去明月坊？” Xiao Hua listened to the great happiness, said with a smile: „Since Xiao is also Dao School **, that first goes to Seven Yang Daoist Monastery, after puts up for the night in a temple, goes to the Ming Yue / Bright Moon work place not to be late again!” 萧华听了大喜,笑道:“既然萧某也是道家**,那就先去七阳观,待得挂单之后再去明月坊不迟！” „Good, small front guides!” Liu Yi was clean, received the reins in Yuan Ya hand, has arrived front, is just has transferred several streets, Xiao Hua at present one brightly, during this big constructions, presented an enormous botanical garden suddenly! But Xiao Hua all around person suddenly sees many, not only Xiao Hua behind some men and women emerge, this botanical garden several other directions clearly have other street to connect, person who these places come are also many. “好,小的前面带路！”柳毅干净利索,接过渊涯手中的缰绳,走到了前面,刚刚不过是转过几个街道,萧华眼前一亮,这高大的建筑之间,豁然出现极大的一片园林！而萧华四周的人蓦然间见多,不仅萧华身后有些男女涌入,这园林其它几个方向显然有别的街道可以连通,那些地方过来的人也是多了。 „Good......” sound of the noise to give birth from the front crowd, one foot Lotus lamp raises from the crowd slowly, that Lotus lamp looks like is very fine, flower petal that around the bottom lotus leaf or the chimney draw up, is lifelike, moreover these flower petals under the lights turnover, shiver slightly, is seeming general that blooms in bud! “好……”一阵喧闹之声自前方人群中生出,紧接着,一个一尺大小的荷花灯从人群中冉冉升起,那荷花灯看起来很是精致,无论是底部的荷叶还是灯罩四周所绘制的花瓣,都是惟妙惟肖,而且这些花瓣在灯火吞吐之下,微微颤抖,正好似含苞绽放的一般！ Just, that Lotus lamp just departed ten several feet high, also had a sound to call out: „Today is Ghost Festival, this Lotus lamp considers along with the water, but the line is good! This flies the midair, although is attractive, may be also incompatible with Etiquette! Moreover in my Copper Pillar Country Capital City refuses Rare Object to lift off, if Little Scholar this Lotus flew high, feared that was supposed by the bow and arrow of imperial guard Sir, was everybody pitiful this lovable Lotus?
