The sunset glow peak of Yunshan most surrounding, the gradient is very gentle, the black eyebrow coloring azure mountain massif meanders to launch on the broad plain of billows river middle reaches. 云山最外围的夕霞峰,坡度十分和缓,黛青色山体就在澜江中游的广阔平原上逶迤展开。 Numerous fine pavilion gardens depend on the appearance of the mountain to construct, the far view as if terraced fields tier on tier, these are the other institute of Song Clique clansman. But „Wendao Manor” occupied the entire peak, majority of time in mountain fog partly visible. 众多精致的楼阁庭院依着山势而建,远观仿佛层层梯田,那些都是宋阀族人的别院。而“闻道庄园”占据了整座峰顶,大部分时间都在山雾中若隐若现。 Song Clique main family four generations in the same room, wanted Duchess An of hundred -year-old birthday still to have great power immediately. Wendao Manor is not everyone has the qualifications to go, say nothing of lives in inside, therefore the surrounding boundary has become the marketable valuable land with a good geomantic omen, has formed so the marvelous sight after dozens years. And, the scenery best topography to be best, naturally is various direct descendant. 宋阀本家四代同堂,马上就要过百岁寿辰的安国公夫人仍是大权在握。闻道庄园不是每个人都有资格进去的,更不用说在里面居住,于是周围地界就成了抢手的风水宝地,历经数十年形成了如此奇观。其中,风景最好地势最佳的,自然属于嫡系各支。 Upward goes to the mountain, Qianye deeply had realized what stage heavy space, the family/home of life of luxury, is the brocade is throwing over the secondary rainbow including the maidservants who occasionally in a hurry passes through, the clothes belt creates an incident. 一路向山上行去,千夜深深地体会了何谓高台重宇,钟鸣鼎食之家,连偶尔匆匆走过的侍女都是着锦披霓,衣带生风。 Is the architecure of restoring the old style, Perpetual Dynamo Tower and steam conduit painstakingly does not cover up with the specially designed view everywhere, has spent the big free time at the beginning of the construction deeply buried, needs not to damage the landscape. 到处都是复古风格的建筑,永动塔和蒸汽管道不是煞费苦心地用特别设计的景致遮掩,就是在建设之初花了大工夫深埋地下,务求不破坏景观。 When Qianye feeling generally, somewhat is vaguely clear, why Song Clique that ancestor will revise the successor term examination rule 30 years ago. 千夜感概之余,依稀有些明白,宋阀那位老祖宗为何会在30年前修改继承人大考规则。 Contrasts he once had seen the Zhao Clique city, Song Clique so pursues the flashy but lacking substance life trivia, in senseless place mass consumption resources, perhaps regarding empire upper layer, was wasteful has spent. 对比一下他曾见过的赵阀城市,宋阀如此追求华而不实的生活细节,在无谓的地方大量消耗资源,或许对于帝国上层来说,也是奢靡过费了。 They arrive above the halfway up the mountainside finally, this altitude has the status in Song Clique. The trees complement one row to have seven and eight courtyards, the scale and style difference are not big, obviously is the construction of same time. 他们最后来到半山以上,这个高度在宋阀里算是相当有身份了。树木掩映间一排有七、八座院落,规模和风格都差别不大,显然是同时间的建筑。 However the restoration maintenance as well as the servant from each courtyard passes and out the situation, can see, that Song Zining enters „Cloud Depth Hall” quite sparse quiet. 不过从每座院落的修缮维护以及仆役进出情况,还是能看得出,宋子宁进入的这座“云深堂”颇为寥落沉寂。 After Qianye walks, discovered why this type is lonely. Originally this courtyard majority of place is closing, only tidied up the east side yard, as the places of their these days staying. 千夜走进去后才发现,这种寂寥因何而来。原来这座院落大部分地方都关闭着,只收拾出了东侧一个小院,作为他们这几天的下榻之处。 This „Cloud Depth Hall” the present is also under the Song Zining's father name, but he because of physically weak withdraws from the Song Clique power center in the Song Zining childhood time, year to year in convalesces in „Wendao Manor”, very long has not made an appearance before the person, never comes this housing. 这座“云深堂”现在还属于宋子宁的父亲名下,但他早在宋子宁童年时期就因体弱退出宋阀权力中心,常年在“闻道庄园”内静养,已经很久不在人前露面,也从不来此居住。 As for Song Zining, waterfront another belt garden the garden under mountain, his concubine and accompanies to place in that side majority. However in order to prepares for the term examination peacefully, for these days, Song Zining and Qianye, as well as another guest's seat warrior put on the spot here. 至于宋子宁自己,在山下的江边另有一处带花园的庭院,他的姬妾和大部分随从安置在那边。不过为了能够安静备战大考,这几天,宋子宁和千夜,以及另外一名客座武士都将住在这里。 The side institute is not big, arranges quiet and beautiful ancient rhyme. 侧院不大,布置得清幽古韵。 The azure flagstone overspreads the courtyard, only keeps the muddy land in four corner/horn, has planted several clumps of bluish green Zhu separately, has planted two Japanese bananas, has put a wonder stone, in addition ancient intent abundant Bajiaojing, looking has the meaning of dust. 青石板铺满院子,只在四角留出泥地,分别栽了几丛碧竹,种了两株芭蕉,放了一块奇石,外加一眼古意盎然的八角井,望之有出尘之意。 Qianye does not like this style, cannot help but approves one, „actually good place.” 千夜就算不太喜欢这种风格,也不由得赞一声,“倒是个好地方。” Song Zining from remaining in guard in a big way received one to fold the document, greeted Qianye to enter the main hall, said: „The arrangement in courtyard is actually Origin Force formation, every day the Daybreak time can double accumulation nature Origin Force, you can give a try the effect tomorrow.” 宋子宁从留守的亲卫手里接过一大叠文件,招呼千夜走进正厅,说:“院子里的布置其实是一个原力法阵,每天黎明时刻能够加倍聚集自然原力,你明天就可以试试看效果。” Qianye stares, thinks very speechless. Does not know that this commendation designer hasn't considered only the art not to forget practical? Should sigh their binding energy Origin Force formation to do an ideal condition. 千夜一愣,觉得十分无语。不知道该称赞设计者没有只顾艺术不忘实用呢？还是该叹气他们连一个聚能原力法阵都要搞出点意境来。 Song Zining walks the document in the hand crossed, puts out several pages to fill to Qianye, is the material of this successor term examination. 宋子宁边走边把手上文件翻过一遍,拿出几页塞给千夜,是这次继承人大考的资料。 He said: „Your guest's seat status has registered, meets me to arrange the person to lead you to select the equipment. Now the time not early, the library and cultivation room will go tomorrow again. Late High Grade I together eat meal.” 他道:“你的客座身份已经登记好了,一会我安排人带你去挑装备。现在时间也不早了,藏书楼和修炼室明天再去。晚上等我一起吃饭。” Then, Song Zining turned head also to tell guard several matters, including placement formerly wounded person, in a hurry departed. Then, some lot wait for him to be done, not only need rush to „Wendao Manor” to start to his father's one group of elders to send respects from Duchess An, but must report on activities to several great elder, reported the business result in the near future distributing. 说完,宋子宁回头又吩咐了亲卫几件事,包括安置先前的伤员,就匆匆离去。接下来,有很多事情等着他去做,不但要赶往“闻道庄园”给从安国公夫人开始到他父亲的一堆长辈问安,还要向几个大长老述职,报告近期分派下来的事务结果。 In small hall that Qianye in peaceful sits down, flipped Song Zining to fill to his material, shakes the head. 千夜在安静下来的小厅中坐下,翻了翻宋子宁塞给他的资料,摇摇头。 Even if this outsider, looked that Duchess An in fact was failed regarding the transformation that the successor inspected. The Song Zining's experience is the evident proof. 哪怕是他这个局外人,都看出来安国公夫人对于继承人考核的变革实际上是已经失败了。宋子宁的经历就是明证。 Because Song Clique the direct descendant heir is not abundant, the rank way is always different from other three cliques, does not divide the title or the head of family branch, but is a direct descendant unified foreword tooth of rank. Song Zining was grandchildren once, is ranked seventh, obviously few of direct descendant juniors. But Song Clique also has the tradition of direct descendant suppressed collateral branch, for several hundred years firmly are grasping the clan authority. 宋阀由于嫡系子嗣不丰,排行方式向来和其他三阀不同,不分堂号或者房头,而是一个辈分的嫡系统一序齿。宋子宁是曾孙辈,排行第七,可见嫡系子弟人数之少。而宋阀又有嫡系压制旁支的传统,数百年来牢牢把握着族权。 In the situation in direct descendant so being short of manpower, aptitude the juniors like Song Zining, unexpectedly due to the cultivation potential insufficient reason, will be assigned as the Chevalier marrying object. Must know, the age of old family Origin Force initiation is six years old to eight years old, completely has the time adaptive correction test result. 就在嫡系如此缺人的情况下,象宋子宁这样资质的子弟,居然会由于修炼潜力不够的原因,被指定为士族联姻对象。要知道,世族原力启蒙的年龄是六岁到八岁,完全有时间修正测试结果。 But Song Zining actually when eight years old chose Yellow Spring Training Camp, obviously his then situation. But reason that creates this situation, a large part is as a result of his father not in the power center, the direct descendant bloodlines that therefore should attach great importance to also lost the protective function. 但宋子宁却在八岁的时候自己选择进了黄泉训练营,可见他当时的处境。而造成这种情况的原因,很大一部分是由于他的父亲不在权力中心,于是就连本应被重视的嫡系血脉也失去了保护作用。 If a family trained the juniors already narrowly to this situation, the non- person in power direct line cannot obtain the resources, definitely slowly will turn into the dead situation. 如果一个家族培养子弟已经狭隘到了这种地步,非当权者直系不能获得资源,必然会慢慢变成一潭死水。 But Song Clique sets up the characteristics of clan by the business, without defending the demand of fief development territory, could not feel the threat of death and flames of war, to a great extent has covered this narrow consequence. Today, does not change a system to turn around, because the system lost the soil of implementation. 而宋阀以商立族的特性,没有保卫封地开拓疆土的需求,也就感受不到死亡和战火的威胁,很大程度上掩盖了这种狭隘的后果。以至于今天,不是改变一个制度就能扭转过来的,因为制度已经失去了实施的土壤。 This has clique of most wealth, the military force is actually emaciated, does not know that its people in power, saw the fresh flower the Sheng's of back shadow brocade. 这个拥有最多财富的门阀,武力却最是羸弱,不知道它的当权者们,是否看到了鲜花着锦之盛背后的阴影。 After Qianye reads the material, has rested a while, guard come to report, drives to deliver him to go to the Song Clique entrance door arsenal. He knew from the guard mouth, Song Zining's another guest's seat warrior wants to rush tomorrow evening, will therefore go to the library tomorrow also only then he. 千夜看完资料后休息了一会儿,就有一名亲卫前来报道,开车送他前往宋阀外门武库。他从亲卫口中得知,宋子宁的另外一个客座武士要明天晚上才能赶到,所以明天去藏书楼也只有他一个人。 Song Clique this time for the successor term examination, has invested the huge resources, particularly gives the advantage of guest's seat warrior to be quite rich, mainly above armaments and military provisions and library opening. 宋阀这次为了继承人大考,投下了大量资源,尤其是给客座武士的好处极为丰厚,主要在武备和藏书楼开放上面。 After the guest's seat warrior registers, may loan one set of equipment from the entrance door arsenal, so long as wins over three in the challenge match, can buy at the half price. If wins five, then offers completely free of charge. 客座武士登记后,就可从外门武库里借出一套装备,只要在擂台赛中胜三场以上,即能以半价买下。若胜出五场,则完全免费赠送。 This also quite in Maiming money, although said that is the life and death arena, runs into the Song Clique juniors not to be impossible to start not to worry, but two guest's seat warriors bump into the same place, if the respective side also has the long standing grudge, possibly branches out the life and death enormously. 这也相当于买命的钱了,虽然说是生死擂台,遇到宋阀子弟还是不可能下手毫无顾虑,但两个客座武士碰到一起,若各自一方又有旧怨的话,极大可能分出生死。 But the library of family say nothing, usually almost will not be open to the bystander. Now although already has open bookshelf limit, but also can only read at the scene, was the extremely rare opportunity. If the luck suffices, saw that happen to suits own Cultivation Technique, that is equal to works for ten years of harvest for the old family. 而家族的藏书楼就更不用说了,平时几乎不会对外人开放。现在虽然既有开放书架限制,还只能当场阅读,也是极为难得的机会了。如果运气够好,看到一本正好适合自己的功法,那就等同于为世族效力十年的收获。 After Qianye arrives knows, this so-called entrance door arsenal is almost equal to a small town size. He walks out with Song Zining's guard, saw in small space that the gate side two long narrow table stages separate, an old man is drowsy. 当千夜到达之后才知道,这所谓的外门武库几乎相当于一个小镇的大小。他跟着宋子宁的亲卫跨过门槛,看到门侧两条案台隔出来的小空间里,一名老头正在昏昏欲睡。 guard found the An Renyi name in the registration book, then awakens the old man respectfully, said: „Old Lu, this is the Young Seventh guest's seat warrior, now chooses the term examination to equip.” 亲卫在登记簿上找到安人忆的名字,然后才毕恭毕敬地叫醒老头,道:“鲁老,这位是七少的客座武士,现在来挑选大考装备。” The old man opens the eye slowly, looked at Qianye one. 老头慢慢张开眼睛,看了千夜一眼。 When his both eyes open, Qianye only thinks in the room, if has lightning together to flash through, for a while anything could not see unexpectedly. But the bright feeling still exists in the consciousness, as if whole body inside and outside also kept in lightning, every delicate hair was completely shown! 当他双眼张开时,千夜只觉得房间中如有一道电光闪过,一时竟什么都看不到了。而亮堂堂的感觉还存在于意识中,仿佛全身上下里里外外也都留在了电光中,纤毫毕现！ In the Qianye heart with amazement, instinct revolution Song Clan ancient scroll Luminary Sheet, pure Daybreak Origin Force sends out from the node. He the Bloodline Concealment ability does not dare to stimulate at this time, all blood energy complete contractions, dark gold blood energy flees for the first time the heart, together with ability rune together sinking depth place. 千夜心中骇然,本能地运转宋氏古卷曜篇,精纯的黎明原力从节点中散发出来。他此时连血脉潜伏的能力都不敢激发,所有血气全部收缩起来,暗金血气首次窜回心脏,连同能力符文一起沉进深处。 Old person's vision in Qianye body coming up back feed several, „is the Young Seventh person, looks well, goes in! The custom you remember that told him.” The old person was saying, has closed the eye slowly. 老人的目光在千夜身上来回扫了好几遍,“是七少的人啊,看着不错,进去吧！规矩你记得告诉他。”老人说着,又缓缓闭上了眼睛。 guard busy say/way: „You felt relieved.” 亲卫忙道:“您老放心。” Then, alloy front door that two people prepare to stride in front that leaf of being indomitable spirit. 说罢,两人就准备跨入前方那扇顶天立地的合金大门。 Old Lu behind said in them suddenly: „youngster is easy to be quick-tempered. The arsenal is very big, inside thing are many, do not worry, slowly selects. Song Family is so big, the good thing always to have.” 鲁老忽然在他们身后道:“年轻人容易性子急。武库很大,里面东西很多,不要着急,慢慢挑。宋家这么大,好东西总是有的。” Qianye hears word has turned round, the polite nod salutes, said: „Many thanks Old Lu direction.” 千夜闻言回过身,礼貌地点头行礼,道:“多谢鲁老指点。” Old Lu waved, starts to hit sleepily. 鲁老挥了挥手,又开始打起瞌睡。 What the entrance door arsenal is open to the guest's seat warrior is Rank 4 weapon and Rank 5 origin gun region. 外门武库向客座武士开放的是四级武具和五级原力枪区域。 The environment that fights in the arena the origin gun display leeway is limited, but Qianye cannot come out with Twin Flowers, therefore has chosen a medium-range pistol at will, then focused in the close-in weapon. 在擂台战的环境下原力枪发挥余地有限,只不过千夜总不能拿双生花出来,所以随意地选了一把中程手枪,然后把注意力放在了近战武器上。 Qianye walks looked, at times takes up a weapon to heft the component, brandishes several. The weapon that he starts is getting more and more heavy, however the battle axe or the heavy hammer, the total feeling is not very convenient. 千夜一路走一路看,时时拿起一件武器掂掂份量,挥舞几下。他入手的武器越来越重,然而无论是战斧还是重锤,总感觉不是十分顺手。 guard with behind Qianye, looks to have doubts, he and Qianye same are Rank 8, a little knew about these weapon standard weight many, but looked that Qianye enters to handle gently such as the appearance of feather, is very surprised. 亲卫一路跟在千夜后边,面露疑惑,他和千夜一样都是八级,对这些武器基准重量多少有点了解,但看千夜入手轻如羽毛的样子,十分惊讶。 He cannot bear grip a handle long hammer that Qianye just put down, under raises is entirely still unexpectedly, is surprised. Looks again to the Qianye slenderly slightly frail personal appearance, is admires eyeful. 他忍不住握住千夜刚放下的一柄长锤,一提之下竟是纹丝不动,不由大吃一惊。再看向千夜修长略显单薄的身形,已是满眼佩服。 Slowly Qianye had transferred the big half-turn this region, suddenly in the corner slanting in wall falls into his eyes by near the heavy sword. 慢慢地千夜已经把这个区域转过了大半圈,忽然角落里一把斜靠在墙边的重剑落入他眼中。 It grows half compared with the ordinary saber, approached the length of both hands great sword, sword edge actually slightly extends. The sword blade is dark, without any magnificent decoration. But the Qianye's vision actually cannot help but was attracted the past. 它比普通佩剑长出一半,已接近双手巨剑的长度,剑锋却只是略宽。剑身黑沉沉的,没有任何华丽装饰。可是千夜的目光却不由自主地被吸引了过去。 He walks, puts out a hand to grip sword hilt, wants to mention comes to see, unexpectedly unexpectedly falls to below, the sword almost lets go. 他走过去,伸手握住剑柄,就想提起来看看,不料居然向下一坠,剑差点脱手而出。 Qianye was startled, this compared with before him has tried all weapons wanted heavily the several fold. Second time he did not treat it lightly, acts bashful the strength, finally has raised Long Sword steadily, the keep flat at present, pulls open the scabbard slowly. 千夜吃了一惊,这比他之前试过的所有武器都要重了数倍。第二次他再不掉以轻心,拿捏准了力量,终于把长剑稳稳地提了起来,平放眼前,缓缓拉开剑鞘。 sword edge is dark, a commonplace, namely is not specially sharp, does not have the design of front that rarely seen (weirdo). 剑锋黑沉沉的,毫不起眼,即不是特别锋利,也不是无锋那种奇葩的设计。 On the ridges have several to say the Origin Force trace, is simple and rough, has a primitive aesthetic sense. However that also means that this origin array is impossible to have the how complex function, like attainments high everybody, told a give an exaggerated account of things story with few characters very much difficultly. 剑脊上有数道原力纹路,简单而粗犷,有种原始的美感。然而那也意味着这个原力阵列不可能有多么复杂的功能,就象造诣再高的大家,也很难用寥寥几个字讲述一篇天花乱坠的故事。 Qianye looked at several unable to confirm the material quality of sword repeatedly, if said that unique element, perhaps lay in that extraordinary serious component. 千夜反复看了几遍也无法确认剑的材质,若要说特殊之处,或许就在于那出奇沉重的份量上了。 He more looked that more thought this work that Long Sword has not completed probably, is similar to together the peerless honest material, but carved the artisan only to carve few blades conveniently to put down generally. 他越看越觉得这把长剑好像是未完成的作品,如同一块绝世好料,但雕匠只刻了寥寥几刀就随手放下了一般。 The Qianye reverse sword blade, saw two characters: East Peak . 千夜反转剑身,看到了两个字:东岳。
