We enter a city.” Hou Sailei waves, when first leads a horse to walk toward the City Gate mouth. “走吧。我们进城。”侯赛雷一挥手,当先牵马朝着城门口走去。 The City Gate mouth is bustling and filled with people, guards sternly.

In the heart the thought actually tumbles. 石牧听闻此话,恩了一声。心中念头却翻滚起来。 Two people follow the people to walk toward the City Gate mouth, Cai'er is peaceful squatting on the Shi Mu shoulder, as if common Parrot is ordinary. 两人跟随着众人朝着城门口走去,彩儿则是安静的蹲在石牧肩膀上,仿佛一只寻常的鹦鹉一般。 „This Parrot is really clever, the completely not shy person, is actually unexpectedly rare.” Yu Yì looked at Cai'er one, said. “这鹦鹉真是乖巧,竟然完全不怕生人,倒是少见。”余意看了彩儿一眼,说道。 Shi Mu smiles, puts out a hand to tease Cai'er, and fed a nut. 石牧笑了笑,伸手逗弄了彩儿一下,并喂了一颗坚果。 Cai'er appeared on the same day suddenly, Shi Mu said that picks in that lakeside Forest, for these days it pretended is common Parrot.

With Cai'er field of vision connection, all clear shine near City Gate in his eye. 石牧目光随意的朝着城门周围看去,在这里他不太敢放出神识探查。和彩儿视野连通,城门附近的一切清晰的映照在了他的眼中。 „Four, five, six, altogether six......” his vision glittering. “四,五,六,一共六个……”他目光闪烁。 Nearby City Gate, hid six powerful aura openly or covertly, should be Star-Rank Warlock or Xiantian Warrior. 城门附近,或明或暗隐藏了六个强大的气息,应该都是星阶术士或是先天武者。 „What person!” The person who guards the team leader appearance walked, vision alert. “什么人！”一个守卫队长模样的人走了过来,目光戒备。 „We from the pi city.” Hou Sailei expression is saying calmly, takes out that black jade board from the bosom.

What thing Mu does the brother have to buy? In the store regarding city is quite familiar below, if you intend, pouring to recommend 12 for you.” Yu Yì said. “怎么？穆兄有什么东西要买吗？在下对于城里的商铺颇为熟悉,若你有意,倒可以为你推荐一二。”余意说道。 „thank you Brother Yu, I was still considering, if when the time comes really has the need to consult you again.” Shi Mu said. “多谢余兄,我还在考虑,到时候如果真的有需要再去请教你。”石牧说道。 Yu Yì nods. 余意点了点头。 After half double-hour, the group arrive at western city district, before a dusky tall building . 半个时辰之后,一行人来到西城区,一片灰蒙蒙的高大建筑前。 In here city the Dark Moon Church large-scale foothold is, possibly is goes to sea the relations of selection, here stream of people are many, is wears the Dark Moon Church disciple of grey robe to come and go out. 这里正是城中冥月教的大型据点所在,可能是出海选拔的关系,这里人流很多,都是身着灰袍的冥月教弟子出入。 „Should be the pi city divides the participating disciple who the altar/jar selects. I just already received you to enter the news of city.” The group arrive at outside a main hall, a grey robe managed to walk from inside, the side followed two grey clothes disciples. “诸位应该就是郫城分坛选出的参赛弟子。我刚刚已经接到你们入城的消息了。”一行人来到一个大殿之外,一个灰袍执事从里面走了过来,身旁跟着两名灰衣弟子。 „Good. Lord Li Shen below dark green wolf palace. Be responsible for the receiving and instructing envoy in pi city.” Hou Sailei said. “不错。在下苍狼殿堂主李绅。是负责郫城的接引使者。”侯赛雷说道。 „Originally is Li Senior Brother, was laborious.” The grey robe deacon looked at Hou Sailei two. Takes out a thing from the bosom, as if contrasted two, nods. “原来是李师兄,一路辛苦了。”灰袍执事看了侯赛雷两眼。从怀中取出一物,似乎对比了两下,点了点头。 Hou Sailei sees that in heart a loosen. 侯赛雷见状,心中一松。 „Li Senior Brother please come along with me.

The participating disciples in pi city just arrived, this is there receiving and instructing envoy Li Shen.” The grey clothes manages respectfully toward silver-haired old man good a ritual, said. “方长老。郫城的参赛弟子刚刚到达,这位是那里的接引使者李绅。”灰衣执事恭敬的朝着银发老者行了一礼,道。 Hou Sailei also followed quickly good a ritual. 侯赛雷也跟着急忙行了一礼。 Silver-haired old man hears word opened the eye. Swept Hou Sailei one, immediately sat straight the body, said: 银发老者闻言睁开了眼睛。扫了侯赛雷一眼,随即坐直了身子,道: „, Was laborious.” “哦,一路辛苦了。” „For Sect, the subordinate is more laborious should also be.” Hou Sailei takes out that black jade board, respectful both hands give the silver-haired old man. “都是为了宗门,属下辛苦一些也是应该的。”侯赛雷取出那块黑色玉板,恭敬的双手递给银发老者。 Silver-haired old man satisfied nod of, received the jade board, pointing to the door of does not lift: 银发老者满意的点了点头,接过了玉板,头也不抬的下了逐客令: „Good, your receiving and instructing duty already completes.

Turns around to walk toward outside. 侯赛雷心中一松,朝着银发老者行了一礼。转身朝着外面走去。 Had/Left the main hall, went out of the field of vision range of that silver-haired old man. In the Hou Sailei heart then relaxes, still has the lingering fear. 出了大殿,走出了那个银发老者的视野范围。侯赛雷心中这才松了口气,犹有余悸。 He will look at one in the future, when takes a step along coming the path walks. 他往后看了一眼,迈步沿着来时的道路走去。 As for reward that the white hair elder mentioned, he naturally cannot receive, at the same time received needs to show the Dark Moon command, was very easy to give it away, on the other hand, he does not know where should to receive the reward. 至于白发长老提到的奖励,他自然不会去领取,一方面领取的时候需要出示冥月令,很容易穿帮,另一方面,他也不知道该到什么地方领取奖励。 Hou Sailei raised the collar, covered half face, went out of the black construction quickly. 侯赛雷提了提衣领,遮住了半张脸,很快走出了黑色建筑。 His footsteps keep slightly, left here quickly. 他脚步丝毫不停,很快离开了此处。 After the quarter of an hour, he arrived at a remote alley, long shouted Took a Breath, whole body already had/left thin Han. 一刻钟后,他来到了一处偏僻的小巷,长长呼出了一口气,全身上下已经出了一层薄汗。 „Haha, looks at your timid appearance, is really useless.” At this moment, sound towering resounding. “哈哈,看你那胆小的样子,真是没用。”就在此刻,一个声音突兀的响起。 Hou Sailei is startled, in the hand black light flashes, already took out that black bamboo law stick, goes following the prestige suddenly. 侯赛雷大吃一惊,手中黑光一闪,已经取出了那根黑竹法杖,豁然循声望去。 On nearby wall, colored Parrot is standing above, is Cai'er. 一旁的墙壁上,一只彩色鹦鹉正站在上面,正是彩儿。 „Cai'er, is your fellow, in a big way frightened me one to jump!” Hou Sailei sees is Cai'er, shouted the one breath, ill-humored saying. “彩儿,原来是你这家伙,吓了我一大跳！”侯赛雷看到是彩儿,呼了一口气,没好气的说道。 „Snort, if not Shi Tou (stone) makes me come, who cherishes to frighten you!” Cai'er some not happy mumbled. “哼,如果不是石头让我过来,谁稀罕来吓你！”彩儿有些不高兴的嘟囔起来。 „Does not know that solemn Senior does go has what instruction?” Hou Sailei hears word, expression austere asking. “不知穆前辈接下去有何指示？”侯赛雷闻言,神色一肃的问道。 „Shi Tou (stone) said that although you also decided that participates this time goes to sea the competition, but provides against contingencies, you look for an inn to stay in the nearby casually.” Cai'er said. “石头说,虽然你也决定参加此次出海比试,但以防万一,你还是在附近随便找个客栈住下。”彩儿道。 „Good, Cai'er you passed on to solemn Senior for me.
