Rhodes has turned the head, looked following the direction of Christie finger. 罗德转过头,顺着克里丝蒂手指的方向望了过去。 At this time two people went to situated in the rural fair central circular steps square, here normally is the people the place that is used to give up any idea, but the present is in the morning, everybody is busy with the work, but also nobody comes to here to rest, only then some children and old man sit above chat, but is making the preparation of performance in some side street artists. 此时两人已经来到了位于集市中央的圆形阶梯广场上,这里平日里是众人用来休想的场所,不过现在是上午,大家都忙于工作,还没有什么人来这里休息,只有一些孩子和老人坐在上面聊天,而在旁边则有一些街头艺人正在做表演的准备。 But Christie refers to is one stands by the park, wears a green clothing, wears a man of feather hat, he is sitting on a chair, writes to draw to the present white drawing board. 而克里丝蒂所指的则是一个站在公园旁边,穿着一身绿色服装,戴着一顶羽帽的男人,他正坐在一把椅子上,对着眼前的白色画板写写画画。 „That is an artist.” “那是一个画师。” Rhodes looked at one to know the status of opposite party. 罗德看了一眼就知道了对方的身份。 „They draw the scenery and character resembles here, if some people will like buying their pictures, naturally, if these fellows will see the person who they want to draw also voluntarily to request......” “他们在这里画风景和人物像,如果有人喜欢的话就会买下他们的画,当然,如果这些家伙看见他们想画的人也会主动要求……” Said here, when Rhodes eyebrow raised, in fact he already passing by rural fair more than once was blocked to hope by these artists oneself can draw his portrait, but Rhodes did not certainly want, but the opposite party was only ordinary person, was not mercenary, he was not good to put out the sword to chop the person directly, therefore after connecting several times, he no longer arrived at this damned place to come 说道这里,罗德挑了下眉头,事实上他已经不止一次的路过集市时被这些画师拦住希望自己能够画他的肖象画,而罗德当然是不愿意的,只不过对方只是普通人,又不是什么佣兵,他也不好拿出剑来直接砍人,所以连接好几次之后,他就不再到这个鬼地方来了 ############### because of Christie, Rhodes will not choose now appear here place again. ###############现在要不是因为克里丝蒂,罗德也不会选择再次出现在这个地方。 „What's wrong, you interested?” “怎么,你有兴趣？” However looks at Christie because of curious and sparkling eyes, Rhodes knows that today cannot hide. 不过看着克里丝蒂因为好奇而闪闪发光的眼睛,罗德就知道今天自己是躲不掉了。 „That let's go and take a look.” “那我们过去看看吧。” Saying, Rhodes was sighing, afterward shook girl's hand to arrive at the side of artist. 说着,罗德叹了口气,随后握着女孩的手走到了画师的身边。 „—— two good, are really a sunny morning.” “哦——两位好,真是个晴朗的早晨。” Sees Rhodes with the arrival of Christie, is manipulating the artist of painting instrument to jump to set out immediately, but very exaggeration warm to their gave a bow, the intonation of his exceptionally exaggeration sounds then to sing probably same one, —— just or gets out of tune very serious that. 看见罗德和克里丝蒂的到来,正在摆弄着画具的画师立刻跳起身来,非常夸张而热情的向他们行了一礼,他那异常夸张的声调听起来就好像在唱歌一样一、——只不过是走调很严重的那种。 „may I ask two place that what need has I to serve? If wants to paint a portrait, I ensure can put out 200% enthusiasms to let two satisfactions, please two feel relieved, but my Francisco Deep Rock City famous artist . Moreover the price is just, so long as five silver coins. Five silver coins, I can draw an incomparably beautiful portrait for you, if you are unsatisfied, can not need to pay money!” “请问两位有什么需要我服务的地方吗？如果是想要画像的话,我保证会拿出200的热情让两位满意,请两位放心,我佛朗西斯科可是深石城有名的画师,而且价格非常公道,只要五枚银币。五枚银币,我就可以为您画出一幅无比美丽的肖像如果您不满意的话,可以不用付钱！” ....... Sichuan, Sir...... These are draw? …….川,先生……这些都是画出来的吗？ But Christie as if to this had not said artist's speech that Francisco has anything to respond, what she is only interested sizes up on present drawing board —— to draw is the Deep Rock City mountain peak scenery, has saying that thing indeed that this artist draws, good and evil Rhodes at least was understands him to draw anything. The thing that some artists draw actually what he looked at a long time/half of the day not to make clear the opposite party to draw was whose any thing one, —— Rhodes the person or the alien or simply is not not high regarding the distinction request of art, he confessed that was a worldling, so long as appreciated the thing that can understand to be good. Fellow who to can only can commend latter modern cutting edge art anything's —— that gives these to know the business through the line and color as for these everything in disorder to toss about reluctantly. 而克里丝蒂似乎并没有对这个自称佛朗西斯科的画师的说话有什么反应,她只是饶有兴趣的打量着眼前的画板——上面画的是深石城的山峰景色,不得不说,这个画师画出来的东西的确有一手,好歹罗德至少是看懂他画了什么。有些画师画的东西他看了半天都搞不清楚对方究竟画的是人还是外星人或者根本就不是什么人的什么东西一、——罗德对于艺术的鉴别要求不高,他自认是个俗人,只要欣赏能看懂的东西就好。至于那些乱七八糟到只能够通过线条和色彩才能够勉强称赞的后现代先锋艺术什么的——交给那些懂行的家伙自己去折腾吧。 „This is natural, esteemed Young Lady.” “这是当然,尊敬的小姐。” Looks Christie puts on, embed has lace lace cloak as well as she hides in Rhodes behind the timid appearance, makes Francisco feel that which household of Noble Great Family Young Lady this girl should be, slides to play secretly, therefore he has not cared specially, but has the earnest smiling face to introduce to Christie as before. 看着克里丝蒂所穿的,镶嵌有蕾丝花边的斗蓬以及她躲在罗德身后怯生生的样子,都让佛朗西斯科觉得这个女孩应该是哪户贵族的大家小姐,偷偷溜出来玩的,所以他也没有特别在意,而是依旧带着热切的笑容向克里丝蒂介绍道。 „These pictures completely are my work, your interested words, perform please appreciate.” “这些画全部都是我的作品,您有兴趣的话,尽请欣赏。” Hears opposite party reply —— Christie hesitated, but behind has not come out from Rhodes' finally, she grips Rhodes' hand, curious poking head, such is sizing up these paintings, looks that the above scenery and character —— is silent, seems is thinking anything. But Rhodes has not asked that he gently touches the hair of Christie, is waiting for her following decision. 听到对方的回答——克里丝蒂犹豫了下,不过最终还是没有从罗德的身后出来,她只是握住罗德的手,好奇的探出头,就那样打量着那些画作,看着上面的风景和人物——沉默不语,似乎是在想着什么。而罗德也没有开口询问,他只是轻轻摸了摸克里丝蒂的头发,等待着她接下来的决定。 However he discovered quickly —— Christie been lost in thought is sizing up a nearby portrait. Marking was a girl and her mother, mother hugs the child —— two people to show the bright smiling face. Has saying that this Francisco's drawing ability is good, the person who at least sees this picture, can feel in the picture the joy of person. Just...... This to Christie whether joyful, that is uncertain. 不过他很快就发现——克里丝蒂正出神的打量着旁边的一幅肖像画。画上是一个女孩子和她的母亲,母亲抱着孩子——两个人露出了灿烂的笑容。不得不说,这个佛朗西斯科的画技还算不错,至少看见这幅画的人,都能够感受到画里人的快乐。只不过……这对克里丝蒂来说是否快乐,那就不一定了。 At this time, Christie finally opened the mouth. 就在这个时候,克里丝蒂终于开口了。 „...... Sir...... Can ask you to give me to draw a picture?” “……先生……可以请您给我画一副画吗？” „This is not certainly a problem, esteemed Young Lady.” “这当然不成问题,尊敬的小姐。” Saw that the guest visited, Francisco's enthusiasm immediately once more enhanced a stair, he puts away then putting out nearby pure white canvas quickly rapidly, has been ready along with the back-up foot deftly, then attentive has given a hand signal to Christie. 眼看客人真的上门了,佛朗西斯科的热情又立刻再次提高了一个台阶,他很快就拿出旁边一张洁白的画布迅速放好,随后手脚麻利的做好了准备,接着殷勤的对克里丝蒂做了个手势。 „Please stand here to come.” “请您站到这里来。” „ Wants “要 Does ############### want me to pass? ” ###############要我过去吗？” Hears artist's request, Christie surprised stared wide-eyed, she holds the Rhodes' clothes restlessly, in a low voice asked. But hears her issue, Francisco has laughed. He thought that this girl was really too interesting, could it be she does not know that can do? 听到画师的要求,克里丝蒂惊讶的瞪大了眼睛,她不安的抓住罗德的衣服,低声询问道。而听到她的问题,佛朗西斯科则是大笑了起来。他觉得这个女孩实在是太有意思了,难道她不知道要怎么做吗？ „This is natural, Young lady, I must have a look at your appearance, then comes to draw, now you wrap in yourself are so strict, do I who in cloak binds how want to draw you? Always cannot this appearance draw now you.” “这是当然的,小姐,我必须要看看你的样子,然后再来画,现在您把自己包在斗蓬里裹的这么严,我又要如何画您呢？总不能够把您现在这个样子画下来吧。” Francisco smiles, brandishes the stone carbon pen in hand to answer to Christie. But the girl still somewhat hesitates, she is looking at all around tide of people restlessly, does not know how should do is good. However Rhodes actually saw the idea of Christie, coming out that looks, Christie wants this sketch really very much, but she did not like person many places, now here is so lively, conceivable, if Christie takes off cloak to stand before the easel, certainly will capture the attention of many person, this regarding Christie, calculates absolutely on is a suffering. 佛朗西斯科一面笑着,一面挥舞起手中的石碳笔向克里丝蒂解释道。而女孩则依然有些犹豫,她不安的望着四周的人潮,不知道该怎么做才好。不过罗德却已经看出了克里丝蒂的想法,看的出来,克里丝蒂是真的很想要这张素描,但是她本来就不喜欢人多的地方,现在这里这么热闹,可以想象如果克里丝蒂脱下斗蓬站在画架前的话,一定会吸引不少人的目光,这对于克里丝蒂来说,绝对算的上是一个煎熬。 „Does not need to be worried, Christie.” “不用担心,克里丝蒂。” Rhodes has patted girl's shoulder gently, afterward gentle voice comforted. 罗德轻轻拍了拍女孩的肩膀,随后柔声安慰道。 „The words that you want do, I will protect your reassurance in side, nobody dares to be what kind to you.” “你想要的话就去做吧,我会在旁边保护你的放心,没有人敢对你怎么样的。” ############### ” ###############” After hearing the Rhodes' comfort, Christie nodded, then her silent for a moment, arouses courage stand forth, but has not walked two steps, the girl stopped, she has sized up under that portrait once more, afterward has turned around, has held on the Rhodes' lower hem corner. 听到罗德的安慰之后,克里丝蒂点了点头,接着她沉默片刻,鼓足勇气向前走去但是还没有走两步,女孩又停了下来,她再次打量了下那幅肖像画,随后重新转过身去,拉住了罗德的衣角。 Air/Qi...... Rhodes...... ” 气……罗德……” „What matter? Christie?” “什么事？克里丝蒂？” „Can you with me together?” “你能和我一起吗？” ############### ” the silk request, Rhodes split second thought that —— is really makes him jump to the pit that oneself dig was too deep ###############”丝蒂的请求,罗德一瞬间就觉得——自己给自己挖的这个坑实在是让他跳的太深了 ############### ############### From the sentiment, Rhodes is 100 is not willing to beam with joy before the people, Christie is afraid ——, but he loathes. Good and evil Christie is a girl, others when will see her also only to sigh that „will really be a pretty lovable girl”, how this said that also will be a positive/direct praise. However? 从感情上来说,罗德是100个不愿意在众人面前露脸的,克里丝蒂是害怕——而他则是厌恶。好歹克里丝蒂是个女孩子,人家在看到她的时候也只会感叹“真是个漂亮可爱的女孩子啊”,这怎么说也是个正面的赞美吧。但是自己呢？ „Really is attractive lovable man Ah......” “真是个漂亮可爱的男人啊……” Thought of this, Rhodes has to plant to draw a sword to chop the past impulsion directly. 一想到这点,罗德就有种拔剑直接砍过去的冲动。 Changed others to raise, even if were Leiya to him proposed that this request, Rhodes is absolutely absolutely will not fling this face. However is actually not able such to do facing Christie Rhodes, maintains the vigilance to many people like Christie, can let loose the intention to be the same to him only. Even if Rhodes can reject all people's requests, but does not have the means to reject her request absolutely. He does not know why this is, with Christie does not understand will be why same to the Rhodes so dependence. The same face perhaps is only on the one hand reason, but some deep levels, did not have the reason of means understanding including them. 换了别人来提,哪怕是莉洁向他提出这个要求,罗德都是绝对绝对不会甩她这个面子的。但是面对克里丝蒂罗德却无法这么做,就象克里丝蒂对不少人都保持戒心,惟独对他能够放开心怀一样。罗德即便能够拒绝所有人的要求,但是也绝对没办法拒绝她的要求。他不知道这是为什么,就和克里丝蒂也不明白为什么自己会对罗德如此依恋一样。相同的面孔或许只是一方面的原因,但是却还有一些深层次的,连他们自己都没有办法了解的原因吧。 Finally, Rhodes also can only clench teeth to accept the request of Christie, stood with her in the front of artist. 最终,罗德也只能够咬着牙答应了克里丝蒂的要求,和她一起站在了画师的面前。 Has saying that the —— Rhodes' worry indeed is very reasonable, after taking off cape, two people much were paid attention quickly, these arrive at side them in the old man children who in the steps park rests, curious is taking a look at two people. These round trip in a hurry for person also can't help but that livelihood rushes about casts the surprised peeping at vision to two people. After all two so beautiful, appearance completely same person —— was really too noticeable. 不得不说——罗德的担心的确是很有道理的,在脱下斗篷之后,两人很快就受到了不少的关注,那些在阶梯公园里休息的老人孩子都纷纷来到他们身边,好奇的打量着两人。就连那些来去匆匆为生计奔波的人也都不由的向两人投去惊讶的窥视目光。毕竟两个如此美丽,容貌又完全相同的人——实在是太引人瞩目了。 But Francisco after seeing two people similarly is exceptionally excited, as an artist, he expected certainly that can preserve the beautiful thing. Although Francisco also plans to praise two people again, but Rhodes that has killing intent and look of warning nature obviously makes him seethe with excitement finally the enthusiasm of fell rapidly the —— little darling makes a fresh start own work. 而佛朗西斯科在看见两人之后同样是异常兴奋,作为一个画师,他当然期望能够把美丽的东西存留下来。虽然佛朗西斯科还打算再赞美一下两人,不过罗德那明显带有杀意和警告性质的眼神最终还是让他本来沸腾的热情迅速降了下来——乖乖的重新开始自己的工作。 But facing surrounding of people, Christie obvious some does not adapt to her by before the Rhodes' body, both hands tight holds the Rhodes' clothes, restless is looking at these people. But Rhodes is stroking the long hair of young girl lightly, simultaneously with slighting and having the caution look is sweeping to all around and ensure will not have the idiot to look for their troubles. His statement indeed is also useful, seeing Rhodes to have the discontented expression, many people had realized they the polite behavior, do not ask to be excused to leave. But these originally also cherished the illegal person also to stop the footsteps at this moment, although Rhodes did not like oneself this face, the characteristics that but its was in sole possession of were very good propaganda —— ” —— these local ruffian nobody do not know that Rhodes began to kill people the brilliance fact that in the Mercenary Association entrance, moreover his characteristics were so obvious, does not need to guess. 而面对众人的围观,克里丝蒂明显有些不适应她靠在罗德的身前,双手紧紧的抓住罗德的衣服,不安的望着那些人。而罗德轻抚摸着少女的长发,同时用冷淡和带着警示的眼神扫向四周,确保不会有白痴想要来找他们的麻烦。他的表态也的确有用,看见罗德带着不满的表情,不少人已经意识到了他们的不礼貌行为,纷纷告退离开。而那些原本还心怀不轨的人此刻也是停下了脚步,虽然罗德不喜欢自己这张脸,但是它那独有的特征还是非常好的宣传——”——那些地痞流氓没有人不知道罗德在佣兵协会门口动手杀人的光辉事迹,而且他的特征是如此明显,根本不需要猜测。 They naturally do not hope oneself also directly took down like that crowd of stupid mercenary in the place turns into the corpse, therefore in unwilling paced back and forth a moment later, these fellows do not have the guts to challenge real degree —— of rumor finally, if Rhodes said the terrifying like the rumor, then perhaps they , even if will be the provocation on glib lips also similarly will bring in the fatal disaster. 他们当然不希望自己也象那群愚蠢的佣兵一样被人直接放倒在地变成尸体,所以在不甘的徘徊了片刻之后,那些家伙最终也没有胆量来挑战一下流言的真实程度——如果罗德真的象流言所说的那样恐怖,那么他们哪怕是嘴皮子上的挑衅恐怕也同样会引来杀身之祸。 Person who after scattering these has watched the fun, Rhodes and Christie also finally relaxed, but Francisco also starts to show oneself skill, he is gazing at two people at the same time, fast flutters about on the canvas, was describing two people appearance. 在驱散了那些看热闹的人之后,罗德和克里丝蒂也总算是放松了许多,而佛朗西斯科也开始展现自己的技巧,他一面注视着两人,一手飞快的在画布上纷飞而过,描绘着两人的模样。 As an artist of seeking a livelihood, Francisco's speed is not slow, this is also normal, if he takes several hours to draw a picture, then whether some people of reasons stand when here his model is also a question. Warning and urging that in addition in the Rhodes' look obviously has, forces this artist to pick up the speed, guarantees by own guest satisfaction. Regarding Francisco, makes him feel only lucky is the makings of these two is very outstanding, does not need to ponder and decorate like other guests specially, can save a lot of time. 作为一个讨生活的画师,佛朗西斯科的速度一点都不慢,这也是正常的,如果他需要好几个小时才能够画一幅画的话,那么是否有人原因站在这里当他的模特也是个疑问。再加上罗德的眼神中明显带有的警告和催促,也迫使这位画师不得不加快速度,来确保让自己的客人满意。对于佛朗西斯科来说,唯一让他感到幸运的就是这两人的气质都很出众,不需要象其他客人那样必须思考和特意修饰,能够节省不少时间。 Therefore has not made two people and others too long, Francisco has then completed the painting on hand. 所以没有让两人等太久,佛朗西斯科便完成了手上的画作。 „Two, please look.” “两位,请看。” Received surface to do from the hand of artist, after careful observation, Rhodes also has to acknowledge, this artist indeed had many skills —— ” he to hold very slight movements between two people to make the subject, on the canvas, Rhodes was caressing the hair of Christie lightly, lowered the head to look at girl, has shown the gentle happy expression. But the girl raised the head, both hands tight grabbed the Rhodes' clothes, in the eye has been full of the sentiment of dependence. Any person after seeing this picture, can can't help but is this big one is small among two people to be harmonious and sigh happily, even saw picture PC Rhodes continually, after seeing this picture greatly acclaimed. 从画师的手上接过面作,仔细观察之后,罗德也不得不承认,这个画师的确有两把刷子——”他抓住了两个人之间的一个非常细微的动作来做主题,在画布上,罗德轻抚着克里丝蒂的头发,低头望着身边的女孩,露出了温柔的笑意。而女孩则抬起头来,双手紧紧的抓着罗德的衣服,眼中充满了依恋之情。任何一个人在看见这副画之后,都会不由为这一大一小两人之间的和谐与美好而感叹,甚至连见惯了照片pc的罗德,在看见这副画之后都是大为赞叹。 „Time is limited, I also can only achieve this situation, two guests.” “时间有限,我也只能够做到这个地步了,两位客人。” Francisco has shown a helpless happy expression. 佛朗西斯科露出了一丝无奈的笑意。 „If you permit, I think that I can take some time color to install the travel it, such certain......” “如果您允许的话,我想我可以花点时间把它上色装旅,那样的话一定……” „Does not use, this is very good.” “不用了,这样就很不错。” Is looking at black and white portrait in hand, Rhodes nodded very satisfied, then he has given Christie the picture, afterward puts out a hand into the bosom, put out gold coins to hand over. But Francisco some are underprepared facing this gold coins, he takes gold coins surprisedly, does not dare believe is looking, afterward placed in the mouth to make an effort to nip has bit, this as if awakening from a dream has shown the excited smiling face. 望着手中的黑白肖像画,罗德非常满意的点了点头,接着他将画递给了克里丝蒂,随后伸手入怀,拿出了一枚金币递了过去。而佛朗西斯科面对这枚金币则有些准备不足,他惊讶的拿过金币,不敢相信的望着,随后放在嘴中用力咬了一咬,这才如梦初醒般的露出了兴奋的笑脸。 „Thank your generous, Dear Guest, you were really too natural, confessed that I did not plan collected charges actually from you, as an artist, can beautiful forever preserve is my pride, you can enjoy the surface to my this opportunity really my being honored, I......” “感谢您的慷慨,尊敬的客人,您真是太大方了,坦白来说,我其实不打算向您收费的,作为一个画师,能够把美丽永远留存下来才是我的骄傲,您能够赏面给我这个机会实在我的荣幸,我……” Rhodes did not have the interest to listen to him to say anything, but was direct nodded, afterward pulled up the cloak plan to leave, but at this time, suddenly a sharp female sound. 罗德没有兴趣听他多说什么,而是直接点了点头,随后拉起斗蓬打算离开,而就在这个时候,忽然一个尖锐的女声响了起来。 „Has not thought really, unexpectedly here also has such pretty girl.” “真没有想到,居然在这里还有这么漂亮的女孩儿。” With this sound, a woman of beautifully making up has arrived at Rhodes and Christie front, she has a happy expression to look at the present girl, afterward put out a hand. 伴随着这个声音,一个浓妆艳抹的女人走到了罗德和克里丝蒂的面前,她带着一丝笑意望着眼前的女孩,随后伸出了手。 „Come, little brat, making Elder Sister take a good look you.” “来,小家伙,让姐姐好好看看你。” Facing hand that the woman extends, Christie obvious somewhat scared, she to relieving under body, but at this moment, Rhodes held on to the wrist/skill of opposite party. 面对女人伸出来的手,克里丝蒂明显有些害怕,她向后缩了下身体,而就在这时,罗德一把住住了对方的手腕。 ( to be continued ) （未完待续） " " = " _ " >\; " target="_blank">\;www.piaotian.com" = " _ " >\; : // " >\; target="_blank">\;http://www.piaotian.com">\;
