The winter heavy snow flutters about. 冬日大雪纷飞。 In the Great Undertaking Street streets and alleys, Zhu Manzhi is holding the oiled paper umbrella, unpurposed stomacher to stroll, then looks at one from time to time, after determining no one follows, steps out to move toward the Ning Qingye courtyard. 大业坊的街巷之间,祝满枝撑着油纸伞,毫无目的的兜兜转转,时而回头看一眼,确定没有人跟着后,才加快脚步走向了宁清夜的院落。 Days before found the Locking Dragon Gu clue, under the Zhu Manzhi pleasant surprise, in the heart also felt alarmed and anxious unavoidably, only then nearby Xu Buling will feel relieved. But Xu Buling is King Su Heir Apparent, is not the common person wants to see sees. 前几日找到了锁龙蛊的线索,祝满枝惊喜之下,心里面也难免担惊受怕,只有到了许不令跟前才会放心。可许不令是肃王世子,不是寻常人想见就见的。 Where Zhu Manzhi does not know Xu Buling, makes the appearance that patrols the streets to transfer several in Exceptional Longevity Street, knew that Xu Buling was closed in Imperial College, she must run nearby Imperial College to saunter, a person did not know, has no way to give Xu Buling to deliver the news. 祝满枝也不知道许不令在哪儿,做出巡街的模样在魁寿街转了几圈,才得知许不令被关在国子监,她只得跑去国子监附近转悠,一个人都不认识,也没法给许不令送消息。 Was good because has the seventh child of casual acquaintance to brave to inquire finally, said this big news. 好在最后有过一面之缘的老七冒出来询问了一番,才把这个重大消息说了出去。 Has not seen the Xu Buling person, Zhu Manzhi did not feel relieved eventually, the inborn courage is not big, knows the danger of Jianghu, to protect oneself to find a safe place to wait. 没见到许不令的人,祝满枝终究是不放心的,天生胆子不大,又知道江湖的险恶,为了自保只得找个安全的地方等着。 Zhu Manzhi comes capital shortly, does not know what backer, King's mansion person many mixed of Exceptional Longevity Street, the expert who can think of only then only then hid in that female assassin in marketplaces. 祝满枝来京城没多久,根本就不认识什么靠山,魁寿街的王府人多眼杂,唯一能想到的高手便只有藏在市井间的那个女刺客了。 That female assassin and Xu Buling knew, possibly is small that Xu Buling raises, stands in the united front, is naturally impossible to harm her. 那女刺客和许不令认识,可能是许不令养的小的,站在统一战线,自然不可能害她。 Thereupon, Zhu Manzhi then arrived at outside the yard of unmanned lane, lifted the hand to knock the front gate. 于是乎,祝满枝便来到了无人巷子的小院外,抬手敲了敲院门。 Thump thump —— 咚咚—— In the courtyard has the flame, obviously some people, the light taste scatters in the air, the chilly sound also resounds: 院子里有火光,明显是有人的,淡淡的药味飘散在空气中,清冷声音随之响起: „Who?” “谁？” Zhu Manzhi winked the big eye, pondered over slightly, very earnest opens the mouth: 祝满枝眨了眨大眼睛,略微琢磨了下,很认真的开口: „I am Heir Apparent Xu...... retainer! Previous time has seen you......” “我是许世子的……门客！上次见过你……” Retainer and guards, although handles matters to the host family, but status huge difference. 门客和护卫虽然都是给主人家办事,但身份天壤之别。 The guard is the goon protects the institute, can draw in the street casually, some even are the servants in your family place. 护卫就是打手护院,随便在街上就能招来,有些甚至是府上的仆役。 But ‚retainer’ was different, is the host family welcome the person of high skill who lives in a strange or foreign place to your family place, is the friend relates with the host family, some ability big staff, the host family even must welcome and see off to politely call one personally ‚mister’. 而‘门客’就不一样了,是主人家请到府上客居的高人,和主人家是朋友关系,有些能耐大的幕僚,主人家甚至要亲自迎送尊称一声‘先生’。 But can work as the retainer in King Su's Mansion, is roughly Old Xiao this type can in the corpse mountain blood sea the host family the rank that carries forcefully, even Xu Buling when the elder regards, its position can be imagined. 而能在肃王府当门客的,约莫就是老萧这种能在尸山血海中把主人家硬生生背出来的级别,连许不令都当长辈看待,其地位可想而知。 Zhu Manzhi supports paper umbrella according to the waist sword, head high, chest out is standing outside the front gate, but also really somewhat the stance of expert. 祝满枝撑着纸伞手按腰刀,昂首挺胸站在院门外,还真有几分高手的架势。 zhī ya - — 吱呀—— The front gate opens. 院门打开。 Throws over Ning Qingye of snow white fox fur coat to appear the figure, the fox fur coat such as the snow and long hair like the waterfall, the beautiful woman appearance just like the space fairy maiden, the tall and slender frown shoulder slightly, look down front small young lady: 披着雪白狐裘的宁清夜显出身形,狐裘如雪、长发如瀑,倾城容颜宛若天上仙子,细长双眉微微挑起,低头看着面前的小姑娘: „Has the matter?” “有事吗？” „......” “……” The Zhu Manzhi stature is not high, at most to the chin of Xu Buling, but the Ning Qingye figure is slender, to the eyebrow of Xu Buling, to near reason, but must look up the person, imposing manner naturally weak several points. 祝满枝个儿并不高,顶多到许不令的下巴,而宁清夜身形修长,到了许不令的眉毛,离得近的缘故,还得抬头看人,气势天然就弱了几分。 Zhu Manzhi very chest, diligently seemingly was been subconsciously bigger by oneself, solemnly said: „I made Heir Apparent Xu, must wait...... to think in your here”, added one: „Heir Apparent Xu makes you protect my safety.” 祝满枝下意识挺了挺胸脯,努力让自己看起来高大些,沉声道:“我约了许世子,要在你这儿等着……”想了想,又加了一句:“许世子让你护着我的安危。” Ning Qingye long, shapely eyebrows is light, brings several points of accident/surprise, pondered over, pours had not asked, made way the path: 宁清夜柳眉轻蹙,带着几分意外,琢磨了下,倒也没有多问,让开了道路: „Comes.” “进来吧。” Zhu Manzhi receives to remove a grease or oil stain the paper umbrella, about sizes up several, numb slip entered in the courtyard, closes to tie up the gate, but also is pasting door panel hear of outside sounds. These are the methods of Wolf Guards counter- tracing. 祝满枝收起油纸伞,左右打量几眼,才麻溜的钻进了院子里,把门关起来拴上,还贴着门板听外面的动静。这些都是狼卫反追踪的手段。 Ning Qingye ignore, turned back under the eaves , to continue medicine that boils the blood circulation to remove extravasted blood. The common saying had a fracture for 100 days, in the shoulder and arm Zhang Xiang two, obstructed not to have greatly, but the words of not careful recuperation were easy to leave behind the old ailment. The body is the martial artist qualification, if not pay attention to recuperate, basically 40 years old became the medicine jar. 宁清夜对此视而不见,自顾自的走回了屋檐下,继续熬着活血化瘀的药物。常言伤筋动骨一百天,肩膀和手臂中了张翔两下,大碍没有,但不仔细调理的话容易留下病根。身体是武人的本钱,若是不注意调养,基本上四十来岁就成了药罐子。 Winter cold wind bone-chilling cold, in the courtyard is quite chilly. 冬日寒风凛冽,院子里比较清冷。 Ning Qingye binds the snow white fox fur coat to sit on the small backless stool, the long sword places on hand, under the eaves is also putting 78 wine pots. 宁清夜裹着雪白狐裘坐在小板凳上,长剑放在手边,屋檐下还放着七八个酒壶。 The Ning Qingye inborn words are few, person of also few words being intimate with, to the meaning that the guest has not entertained. 宁清夜天生话少,亲近之人也没几句话,对来客也没有招待的意思。 Zhu Manzhi is different, inborn originally ripe, can ramble on several with anyone. 祝满枝则不一样,天生自来熟,和谁都能瞎扯几句。 Outside after determination no one, Zhu Manzhi has nothing to do in the deserted institute, then selfish moved a small backless stool from the room, sits down opposite of Ning Qingye, thinks: 确定外面无人之后,祝满枝在空落落的院里无事可做,便自顾自的从屋里搬了个小板凳,在宁清夜对面坐下,想了想: „Hey ~ were you injured?” “喂~你受伤了？” „I called Ning Qingye, did not call ‚feeding’, you called my Sister Ning then.” “我叫宁清夜,不叫‘喂’,你叫我宁姐姐即可。” „?” “？” The Zhu Manzhi small eyebrow selects, immediately is not glad, why does she want to call the elder sister? 祝满枝小眉毛一挑,顿时不乐意了,凭什么她要叫姐姐？ „Young Lady Ning, below Zhu Manzhi, the Jianghu person delivers nickname ‚Fen River Sword God’, if you did not mind, asking me to wish the woman then......” “宁姑娘,在下祝满枝,江湖人送混号‘汾河剑神’,你若是不介意,叫我祝女侠即可……” „Fen River Sword God?” “汾河剑神？” Ning Qingye never cracks a joke, complexion earnest several points, recalled earnestly, determined after has not listened to ‚Fen River Sword God’ this character, lifts the view: 宁清夜从不与人开玩笑,脸色认真了几分,认真回想了下,确定没听过‘汾河剑神’这号人物后,才抬起眼帘: „Wish the woman also to use the sword?” “祝女侠也用剑？” Zhu Manzhi coughed lightly: „Slightly understands, but I do not use the sword generally, uses the sword to see the blood, has no way to contest with young lady, really pitifully.” 祝满枝轻咳了一声:“略懂,不过我一般不出剑,出剑就要见血,没法和姑娘过招,实在可惜了。” On Jianghu certain becoming famous swordsmen, really have this art. 江湖上某些成名剑客,确实有这个讲究。 Ning Qingye is doubtful, the depth of Jianghu expert, very difficult to look from the representation. After sizing up Zhu Manzhi several, her then double pupil concentrates...... 宁清夜半信半疑,江湖高手的深浅,很难从表象瞧出来。打量祝满枝几眼后,她便双眸微凝…… chā - — 嚓—— Three chi (0.33 m) cold front comes out of the sheath, carries over together the silver glow in the yard that the heavy snow flutters about. 三尺寒锋出鞘,在大雪纷飞的小院中带出一道银芒。 The sword light sweeps, then took back the scabbard. 剑光一扫而过,便又收回了剑鞘。 Ning Qingye as before is the original posture, as if the gearing has not moved. 宁清夜依旧是原来的姿势,似乎连动都没有动一下。 Trembling that Zhu Manzhi frightens, slightly latter supine, anything has not seen clearly, some opens the mouth of doubts: 祝满枝吓的一哆嗦,微微后仰了下,什么都没看清,有些疑惑的开口: „Un...... young lady you are......” “嗯……姑娘你这是……” During the speeches, feels body slightly cool suddenly. 说话之间,忽然觉得身上微凉。 Looks down, discovered the front piece place does not know when presented an opening, was cut by sword edge together with inside bellyband, reveals inside white and shiny circular arc, actually no wound to body half a point. 低头看去,才发现衣襟处不知何时出现了条口子,连同里面的肚兜都被剑锋划开,露出里面白花花的圆弧,却没有伤到皮肉半分。 „yā - —” “呀——” The Zhu Manzhi complexion becomes flushed grasps chest, annoyed looking to the opposite, wants to curse at people not dare. 祝满枝脸色涨红的抱住胸脯,恼火的望向对面,想骂人又不敢。 The Ning Qingye cheeks are light, in the foreheads does not have the least bit respect again, selfish is tossing about the small stove: 宁清夜脸颊平淡,眉宇间再无半点敬重,自顾自的折腾着小炉子: „Stature is not big, chest is big, is not dull to breast-feed a baby at home, runs to rush to what Jianghu, which day falls in the evil manpower you knew fiercely......” “个儿不大,胸脯不小,不呆在家里奶孩子,跑出来闯什么江湖,哪天落在歹人手里你就知道厉害了……” The Zhu Manzhi almond eyes stare round, the tooth of air/Qi is itchy, may be not as skillful as others and not have the right to speak. Only can mystifying snort/hum: 祝满枝杏眼瞪的圆圆的,气的牙痒痒,可技不如人又没话语权。只能阴阳怪气的哼了一声: „What Young Lady Ning lesson is, only then Young Lady Ning such stature is high, that anything the small ability rushes to Jianghu, so as to avoid stared by the bad man......” “宁姑娘教训的是,只有宁姑娘这样个儿高,那啥又小的才能闯江湖,免得被歹人盯上……” Ning Qingye hand movement came to a stop, lifted the view to cast aside Zhu Manzhi one, then sat the straight body, both hands presses firmly between the fingers the collar, opened wide the fox fur coat slightly, revealed following exquisite graceful figure. 宁清夜手上动作一顿,抬起眼帘撇了祝满枝一眼,便坐直身体,双手捏住领子,略微敞开了狐裘,露出下面玲珑曼妙的身段儿。 During the breath, the peaks and ridges fold. 呼吸之间,峰峦叠起。 The Ning Qingye leaning head, in the pupil of seven points of heroic spirit three points of foxlike charm, has several points of provocative flavor slightly. 宁清夜微微偏头,七分英气三分狐媚的眸子里,带着几分挑衅的味道。 Un hmph~? 嗯哼~？ This enchantress, bullies the person ~! 这狐媚子,太欺负人啦~！ Zhu Manzhi air/Qi almost could not speak, big young lady did not keep overnight enmity, how could at this time to have stage fright. 祝满枝气的几乎说不出话来,大姑娘不留隔夜之仇,此时岂能怯场。 The Wolf Guards uniform/subdue is very tight, Zhu Manzhi lifts the hand to untie the front piece, with front this enchantress open and aboveboard contend. 狼卫制服很紧,祝满枝抬手就想解开衣襟,和面前这狐媚子堂堂正正的一较高下。 Front Ning Qingye root of the ear moves slightly, detects anything, gripped the sword hilt to look to the front gate: 只是面前的宁清夜耳根微动,察觉到什么,握住剑柄看向了院门: „Who?!” “谁？！” Zhu Manzhi sees Ning Qingye with the sword, just wants to shout that ‚woman forgives’, hearing the words to respond, chest that also grasps hastily...... 祝满枝见宁清夜拿剑,正想喊‘女侠饶命’,听见话语才反应过来,连忙又抱住的胸口……
