Where projected on?” 这价格,纵然是吴明也有些吃惊,不由接着问:“那天下情况如何,十三路反王,二十七路烽烟呢？打到哪里了？” „This...... lowly one / small only knows that from our Wei post district recent rebel King, is the number is ‚Unibrow King’ Han Hulin, since above has the decree, must capture the under the Heaven / World pointed weapons, after going to the casting that anything nuisance metal statue, the way of the world is more and more chaotic, even in our shop was commandeered a taels of silver coins gold/metal iron tax......” “这个……小的只知道距离咱们渭岗县最近的一路反王,乃是号为‘一眉王’的韩虎林,而自从上面有着旨意,要收缴天下兵刃,去铸造那什么劳什子金人之后,世道就是越来越乱,连我们店里都被强征了一两银子的金铁税呢……” Can look, waiter wants to gain this silver coin(s), doing to the ink is limited, the story was also limited, touches own ears and cheeks, cannot find out more things. 看得出来,小二很想赚这笔银子,奈何墨水有限,见闻也是有限,抓耳挠腮,想不出更多东西了。 „Haha...... this Daoist Elder , to know the under the Heaven / World matter, not how, if asked me to drink one cup?” “哈哈……这位道长若想知道天下事,不若请我喝一杯如何？” At this time, side door a middle-aged person who wore the clothes was sets out to say with a smile, beard half black half white, was shabby, has air/Qi of wind and frost. 这时候,旁门一名穿着青衫的中年人就是起身笑道,胡子半黑半白,衣衫破旧,有着一点风霜之气。 „Meeting by chance is fated, this friend not, if drinks one cup!” “相逢即是有缘,这位朋友不若来喝一杯！” Wu Ming is naturally glad so, making waiter get down, called the pot liquor. 吴明自然乐得如此,让小二下去,又多叫了壶酒。 A moment later, waiter holds the tray, paints on the red wooden plate is one plate of brackens, one bowl of soy-sauce cooked pork, more than ten white steamed buns. 片刻之后,小二就捧着托盘上来,漆红色的木盘上是一碟蕨菜,一碗酱肉,还有十几个白生生的馒头。 Also brings pot old wine, two cups, fill to the brim respectfully, this draws back. 又拿来一壶老酒,两个杯子,恭敬地倒满,这才退下。 Although is very simple, but Wu Ming notices many guests to look own this table, the eye somewhat straightens. 虽然很是简单,但吴明就注意到不少客人就看着自己这桌,眼睛都有些发直。 „This friend, invited, has not known how should call?” “这位朋友,请了,还不知该如何称呼？” Wu Ming shows a faint smile, carries the wine glass. 吴明微微一笑,端起酒杯。 „myself Hu Xin, native, once novice student, now the untaught child is industry......” “在下胡信,本地人,也曾中得童生,现在蒙童为业……” This Hu Xin introduced the sentence slightly, immediately holds up the wine glass, sipped one slightly, eyes is narrows the eyes, the beard curls upwards, resembles not to give up, resembles the struggling moment, tosses down, immediately the complexion becomes flushed slightly, sighed long air/Qi satisfiedly, immediately clamped chopsticks soy-sauce cooked pork, ate up greedily, a moment later, sighed, asked for mercy: „Several months does not see the meat, was laughed at!” 这胡信略微介绍了句,当即举起酒杯,微微抿了一口,双眼就是眯起,胡须一翘一翘,似舍不得,又似挣扎片刻,才一饮而尽,当即脸色微微涨红,又是满足地叹了一口长气,当下夹了一筷子酱肉,狼吞虎咽地吃下,片刻之后,叹息一声,告罪道:“数月不见荤腥,见笑了！” „Only the big heroic energy true colors, are really famous scholar from loose, mister this is free and easy, why to apologize?” “唯大英雄能本色,是真名士自风流,先生这是洒脱,何必道歉？” „Good! This is deep my heart, when drinks a large cup of wine as a penalty for losing in a finger-guessing game!” “好！此句深得我心,当浮一大白！” Hu Xin great happiness, drank one cup, said: „Daoist Elder, if has what thinks to ask, myself must speak out frankly, expresses oneself fully!” 胡信大喜,又饮了一杯,才道:“道长若有何想问,在下必知无不言,言无不尽！” „Pours does not have other, how is the under the Heaven / World situation?” “倒也没有别的,就是天下局势如何？” Wu Ming tranquil say/way. 吴明平静道。 „This small district, if you asked others, took seriously few to know, but my several good friends worked under the Prefecture Governor curtain, once has the mail exchange with me......” “这小县,若是你问别人,当真没几个知道,不过我几个好友在郡守幕下中做事,也曾与我有着书信往来……” Hu Xin narrows the eyes to focus slightly: „If said the important matter, now under the Heaven / World has not had two, first is Ji Yi dispatches troops into battle, performs to occupy the dry state and Yunzhou, the royal government has conferred the title of prince upon, the title is ‚military’!” 胡信微微眯着眼:“若说大事,当今天下无过两件,第一就是姬易起兵,尽占乾州、云州,朝廷已经封了王,封号为‘武’！” This comforts, but Wu Ming knows very well the history, knows that this absolutely does not have the effect. 这就是安抚,不过吴明熟知历史,知道这完全没有效果。 After Ji Yi called Martial King actually, the wing was thoroughly plentiful, only waited for under the Heaven / World 40 groups of beacons to dissipate, must dispatch troops to cut down the business, extinguished the Great Shang state thoroughly. 倒是姬易称武王之后,羽翼彻底丰满,只等天下四十路烽烟消散,就要出兵伐商,彻底灭了大商社稷。 „That second matter?” “那第二件事呢？” „Second, is the heads of 13 groups of rebel King ‚covers Heavenly King’ Xu Zongwu, has captured ten to close certainly, is preparing to invite various group of rebel King to make treaties of alliance, asks for Shengjing, and agrees first under Shengjing is the emperor!” “第二件,就是十三路反王之首的‘盖天王’徐宗武,已经攻下了十绝关,正准备邀请诸路反王会盟,共讨盛京,并且约定先下盛京者为帝！” This Hu Xin lowers the sound, said this earth-shaking news. 这胡信压低声音,说出了这个石破天惊的消息。 ‚Originally the history had arrived here!’ ‘原来历史已经到了这里了！’ Wu Ming hears, actually moves at heart. 吴明听得,心里却是一动。 Ten close certainly, the meeting of golden pond! 十绝关下,金池之会！ This in the Great Zhou history book, of must mention dark ink serious wounds! 这在大周史书上,也是不能不提及的浓墨重彩之一笔！ Shengjing is the Great Shang imperial capital, these ten close it certainly in Shengjing, is similar to tiger firm pass/test it general in Luoyang. 盛京便是大商帝都,这十绝关之于盛京,就如同虎牢关之于洛阳一般。 Xu Zongwu captures ten to close certainly, convenes 40 groups of counter- thief assemblies, and agrees ‚first under the Shengjing emperor’, is must make treaties of alliance the under the Heaven / World counter- business influence, and is total Alliance Lord! 徐宗武攻下十绝关,又召集四十路反贼集会,并且约定‘先下盛京者帝’,乃是要会盟天下反商势力,并且为总盟主！ Once gives him to succeed, even if Martial King Ji Yi has two states, facing entire under the Heaven / World , can only the disciple shout does. 一旦给他成功,武王姬易纵然坐拥两州,面对整个天下,也只能徒呼奈何。 Naturally, Wu Ming has read the history book, knows that the meeting of this golden pond, has not actually succeeded finally, instead the achievement Great Shang last generation of Spirit General, Pingshan King Guo Zihe ‚single spear/gun selected eight kings, the horse treads 13, burns down continually camp 80 li (0.5 km)’ legendary illustrious name. 当然,吴明读过史书,知道这个金池之会,最后却是没有成功,反而成就了大商最后一代神将,平山王郭子和‘单枪挑八王,马踏十三将,火烧连营八十里’的传奇英名。 At that time read the history book, only felt Guo Zihe this person of handle troops like a God, and day fell Great Luck, unexpectedly can sneak attack successfully, but in the real history, makes some Wu Ming slightly doubts now. 当时看史书,只觉得郭子和此人用兵如神,并且天降大运,居然可以偷袭成功,但现在处于真实的历史之中,却令吴明略微有些疑惑。 „Only if these rebel King and Great General are the fools, will otherwise not catch the whole lot in a dragnet absolutely, in the middle of this must have the heaven-shaking accident, but was buried in the history......” “除非这些反王、大将都是傻子,否则绝对不会被人一网打尽,这当中必有惊天变故,只是又被掩埋在历史中了……” Wu Ming is eating the food and wine, often listens to this Hu Xin to shoot the breeze, actually already gradually defined under the Heaven / World situation. 吴明吃着酒菜,不时听着这胡信高谈阔论,却是已经渐渐明晰了天下大势。 Although the history book cannot completely believe that but the situation deduction, the overall trend, is actually nothing issue. 虽然史书不能尽信,但大势推演,总体走向,却是没有什么问题。 „Oh...... was a pity that I am the experience am too few, otherwise the Great Zhou 300 years, ought some dense conceals or the inheritance and so on, may attempt to unearth now......” “唉……可惜我还是见识太少,否则大周三百年,总该有些密藏或者传承之类,现在就可去尝试挖掘一下……” Wu Ming regrets at heart, also moves suddenly: „Perhaps actually these Reincarnator, really have......, this piece of world that does, true or false? Village Zhou Mengdie, dream while dozing Zhuang Zhou, was really difficult to say very much......” 吴明心里惋惜非常,又是忽然一动:“倒是那些轮回者,说不定还真有这么干的……唉,这片世界,到底是真是假？庄周梦蝶,蝶梦庄周,实在难说得很啊……” „Alas...... I study assiduously for many years, in the end is hundred does not have uses, to do to......” “呜呼……我苦读多年,到头来却是百无一用,奈何奈何……” The Hu Xin alcohol capacity is really shallow, drinking finally is actually wine doesn't get you drunk, lies on the long and narrow table directly, muttering: „I read the poetry book in vain full, was actually serves the country impossible, alas...... the under the Heaven / World chaos, the vermilion gate liquor was smelly, the road had the dead bone, the heaven did not have......” 胡信酒量甚浅,喝到最后却是酒不醉人人自醉,直接趴在案桌上,喃喃着:“枉我饱读诗书,却是报国无门,呜呼哀哉……天下大乱,朱门酒臭,路有死骨,苍天无眼……” „Actually is resents the world and detests mundane affairs!” “却是个愤世嫉俗的！” Wu Ming looks at his head literary style, how is also not rich, got down the attribute. 吴明看着他头上文气,也不是如何浓郁,不由下了定语。 „Good! When the under the Heaven / World chaos, we use force! Emperor Jie is muddle-headed, we then threw that to cover Heavenly King and Unibrow King, the pleased love and hate, considered a life big happy event!” “好！天下大乱,正是我们用武之时！桀帝昏聩,我们便去投了那盖天王、一眉王,快意恩仇,当是人生一大乐事！” Suddenly, on nearby table, two youngster Ren Xia are actually the drinking to heart's content strong liquor, shouted fiercely. 忽然间,旁边一张桌子上,两名少年任侠却是痛饮烈酒,猛地喝道。 ‚Rash fellow who where Fuck! comes?’ ‘靠！哪里来的二愣子？’ Before Hu Xin discussed freely under the Heaven / World, has made the full house diner fearful and apprehensive, without thinking was bolder, unexpectedly shouted in the district of Great Zhou control directly, immediately periphery the person will frighten the surface nobody color, many guests set out to leave a seat directly, obviously feared that was involved. 之前胡信纵论天下,已经令满堂食客心惊胆颤,没想到还有更大胆的,居然在大周控制的县内直接呼喊,当即就将周围人吓得面无人色,不少客人直接起身离座,显然怕受到牵连。 Wu Ming is also somewhat depressed, looked at one, the pupil actually concentrates slightly. 吴明也是有些郁闷,又望了一眼,眸子却是微微一凝。 Sees only these two to wear the black clothes vigor attire, shoulders Long Sword, valiant, what is most essential is in Internal Luck, two Sword Qi pure white like frost, has the chill in the air, is actually swordsmanship Rank 2, in small County City, was rare. 只见这两人都穿着黑衣劲装,背负长剑,英姿勃发,最关键的是内运之中,两道剑气纯白如霜,带着寒意,却是实打实的剑道二级,小县城中,就非常难得了。 ‚This attracts the offical mission attendant attention intentionally, prepares to use diversionary tactics? Also or kills the common difference to do to throw describes?’ ‘这是故意吸引官差注意,准备声东击西？又或者杀公差做投名状？’ Sees these two swordsmen, although the histrionics is rough, but is in fact fine within its crudy, frequently looks care in all directions, does not leave the sword hilt, Wu Ming sets out immediately. 看到这两个剑客虽然作派粗犷,但实际上粗中有细,时刻眼观八方,一手更是不离剑柄,吴明立即起身。 Although he is not afraid of getting into trouble, is actually not likes stirring up trouble, immediately leaves the place of this right and wrong on the preparation. 他虽然不怕事,却也不是个喜欢惹事的,当即就准备离开这个是非之处。 „That Daoist wait/etc.!” “那道人等等！” Saw that he must walk, a young swordsman actually smiles: „Daoist Elder you do not repair in the remote mountain clear, actually comes out to inquire that this matter, has the generation of under the Heaven / World inevitably, happen to our brothers also just want to make an enterprise, not, if we tie the sworn brother in this righteousness today, together how threw Unibrow King?” 见到他要走,其中一名年青剑客却是一笑:“道长你不在深山清修,却出来打听这种事,必然也是胸怀天下之辈,正好我们兄弟也正想做一番事业,不若今日我们在此义结金兰,一起去投了一眉王如何？” At this time these two youngster, look like in the story-telling script novel very much these ‚few adore/admire Yong, the happy hero festival, a word does not gather, the blood splashes five steps’ blood brave gentleman. 此时这两个少年,就很像话本小说中那些‘少慕勇,喜侠节,一言不合,血溅五步’的血勇之士。 But Wu Ming hears, actually wants to roll the eyes, deeply understood ‚you do not look for a job, the matter actually looks for you’ meaning. 但吴明听得,却是很想翻白眼,深刻理解了‘你不找事,事却找你’的含义。 At that moment beckons with the hand: „Two esteemed friendships, this poor Daoist actually does not dare to seek friendships, says goodbye!” 当下摆摆手:“两位高义,贫道却是不敢高攀,告辞告辞！” Footsteps flashes, is far in an instant the zhang (3.33 m). 脚步一闪,刹那间已经远出丈许。 „Big brother, why did not make me try him a moment ago, that Daoist is strange, has the possibility is also in Red Lotus Cult the person!” “大哥,刚才为何不让我试试他,那道人希奇古怪,颇有可能也是红莲教中人！” Sees Wu Ming to get out of the way, the younger brother opens out the palm that the Elder Brother stops immediately, asked discontentedly. 见到吴明走开,那弟弟顿时拨开哥哥阻拦的手掌,不满问道。 This sound only disseminates in several chi (0.33 m), only had Long Sword guest to hear that year. 只是这声音只在数尺内传播,唯有那年长剑客一人可听得。 „We present the life of military commander True Daoist, comes to crusade against Red Lotus Cult, do not mess with other...... that Daoist Priest I really to see has cultivation, not necessarily is the person of Red Lotus Cult, do not set up the foe absurdly!” “我们奉兵家真人之命,前来讨伐红莲教,不要沾惹其它……那道士我见得是个真有道行的,也不一定是红莲教之人,不要妄树仇敌！” What a pity these two had not actually discovered, on the Wu Ming previous furniture, a miraculous glow glitters. 可惜这两人却没有发现,吴明之前的桌椅上,一点灵光就是闪烁。 „Military commander? Red Lotus Cult? Actually is cultivation internal fight, I do not need to manage!” “兵家？红莲教？却是修行界内斗,我不必管了！” Beside several streets, Wu Ming moves at heart, at once looks to another, the tone is cold and gloomy: „Bold, dares to track me?” 数条街道之外,吴明心里一动,旋即又看向另外一处,语气森冷:“大胆,竟敢跟踪我？” „Really is Junior Master!” “果然是师叔！” Two Red Lotus Cult disciples go out from the shadow, on the face has the happy expression, kneels down fiercely: „Congratulates Junior Master divine art great accomplishment!”( To be continued.) 两名红莲教弟子从阴影中走出,脸上都带着喜色,猛地跪下:“恭喜师叔神功大成！”(未完待续。)
