„Matter is this. Actually the moon/month secondary rainbow princess of land mountain dynasty had not been elected originally, what election is another female named Zhong Xiu. In the final moment, this female does not know why proposed suddenly must give up rising the immortal qualifications voluntarily.” Xu Luzi answered. “事情是这样的。其实原本陆山王朝的月霓公主并未当选,当选的是另一个名叫钟秀的女子。只是在最后关头,此女不知为何却忽然提出要自愿放弃升仙资格。”徐鲁子解释道。 „Yes, this rise immortal grand ceremony half This one time, demanded harshly to the candidate, the quota also only had only six, was in ten thousand does not have one simply. Once selects that to have the opportunity to reach the sky in a single bound, becomes Immortal in legend, some unexpectedly people were selected, actually gives up on own initiative, this matter classics and commentaries leave, in entire Tian Yu City, and even the land mountain dynasty caused a big stir.” Field Storekeeper added. “是啊,这升仙大典半甲子一次,对参选者要求苛刻不说,名额又仅有区区六名,简直是万中无一。一旦选中那可就有机会一步登天,成为传说中的仙人,竟有人被选中了,却又主动放弃,此事一经传出,在整个天虞城,乃至陆山王朝都引起了不小的轰动。”田掌柜补充道。 Shi Mu hears this words, complexion changes, looks at the front, in the heart suddenly five senses Chen Za. 石牧听闻此话,脸色微变,怔怔看着前方,心中一时间五味陈杂。 Reason that Zhong Xiu does that perhaps others do not know, but in his heart can actually guess correctly faintly 78. 钟秀这么做的理由,别人或许不知道,但他心中却能隐隐猜到个七八分。 Own this time was passed the Celestial Church and Celestial Church liangs big influence on collaborate the issue Heavenly Dao to close-stitch kills the command to issue a warrant for arrest, how Zhong Xiu can not know, but with its character, naturally cannot sit by and do nothing...... 自己此番被通天仙教大势力联手发布的天道缉杀令通缉,钟秀岂会不知,而以其性格,自然不会坐视不理…… Read and this, in the Shi Mu heart raised inexplicable move, the state of mind does not know that unconsciously had a change. 一念及此,石牧心中不由升起了一丝莫名的感动,心境也不知不觉起了一丝变化。 „Xiu Er, how you are so silly......” in his heart to talk over secretly. “秀儿,你怎么这么傻……”他心中暗暗念叨。 „Is it possible that solemn does Fellow Daoist know Zhong Xiu this female?” Xu Luzi observed Shi Mu expression to change, speaks to ask. “莫非穆道友认识钟秀此女？”徐鲁子观察到了石牧神色变化,出言问道。 Nearby field Storekeeper hears word, looked to Shi Mu. 一旁的田掌柜闻言,也望向了石牧。 „Good.” Shi Mu had not denied. “不错。”石牧没有否认。 „Hehe, has not thought that this miss who makes startles to lift shockingly, unexpectedly is the solemn Fellow Daoist friend.” Xu Luzi shows a faint smile to say. “呵呵,没想到这位做出惊世骇举的姑娘,竟是穆道友的朋友。”徐鲁子微微一笑道。 „Grandmaster slow, does not know whether your Heavenly Wu Merchant Association can help check that Zhong Xiu now where?” Shi Mu suddenly raised the head to ask. “徐大师,不知你们天吴商会能否帮忙查到那个钟秀如今在何处？”石牧忽的抬头问道。 „, Solely investigates that Zhong Xiu whereabouts?” Xu Luzi asked. “哦,单单只是调查那个钟秀的行踪吗？”徐鲁子问道。 „Temporarily first this, waited to find her trail to say again, from now on perhaps will have other things to ask you.” Shi Mu considered, said. “暂时先这样,等找到她的踪迹再说,今后或许还有其他事情要拜托你们。”石牧考虑了一下,说道。 „Ok. Usually my Heavenly Wu Merchant Association looked for missing people. Minimum thousand Spirit Stone, make an exception today, calculates solemn Fellow Daoist five hundred Spirit Stone.” Xu Luzi said. “可以。平素我天吴商会寻人。起码一千灵石,今日就破例,算穆道友五百灵石吧。”徐鲁子道。 Shi Mu not hesitant. The hand wields, on the desktop presented five middle grade Spirit Stone. 石牧没有犹豫。手一挥,桌面上出现了五块中品灵石。 „Good. We will give you to answer as soon as possible.” Xu Luzi is saying, gave a hand signal, hinted field Storekeeper to receive Spirit Stone. “好。我们会尽快给你答复。”徐鲁子说着,做了个手势,示意田掌柜收起了灵石。 „In view of this, I waited for your good news.” Shi Mu stand. “既如此,那我就等你们的好消息了。”石牧站了起来。 „Solemn Fellow Daoist , the result of demon Yang grand ceremony has not looked.” Xu Luzi referred to another jade talisman. “穆道友,还有魔阳大典的结果没有看呢。”徐鲁子指了指另一块玉符。 „, Almost forgot.” Shi Mu shows a faint smile, has taken jade talisman, is studying just now the Xu Luzi appearance. Poured into wisp of Magic Power. “哦,差点忘了。”石牧微微一笑,拿过玉符,学着方才徐鲁子的样子。注入了一缕法力。 jade talisman shines white light immediately, condenses a picture, above appears six person's shadows, four male and two female. 玉符顿时亮起白光,凝聚成一个画面,上面浮现出六个人影,四男二女。 The Shi Mu vision sweeps, the brow wrinkled. 石牧目光一扫,眉头皱了一下。 In six people, has not seen the Jin Xiaochai form, is somewhat not as he expected. 六人之中,并没有看到金小钗的身影,有些出乎他的预料。 „Well!” “咦！” His eye circle suddenly stares, looks to a rightmost grey robe youngster, this person looks extremely young, perhaps is only 17-18 years old. 他眼睛忽的圆瞪,看向最右边的一个灰袍少年,此人看起来极为年轻,恐怕只有17-18岁。 „Feng Li!” In his heart is startled. “冯离！”他心中一惊。 Since Feng City left in the past. Two people have not then met again, never expected that he went to Heavenly Demon Sect unexpectedly, but also attended the demon Yang grand ceremony. 自从当年丰城一别。两人便再也没有见过面,没想到他竟然去了天魔宗,还参加了魔阳大典。 His vision revolution. Falls in Feng Li name. 他目光一转。落在冯离身旁的姓名上。 Feng Mao...... 冯茂…… It seems like this Feng Li does not know that with what method, using the fictitious name to attend the demon Yang grand ceremony, surely not known stories, if later can meet, he wants to ask actually well. 看来这冯离也不知用了什么手段,用了假名参加了魔阳大典,其中必定有一番不为人所知的故事,若是以后能见面,他倒是想要好好问问。 „Solemn Fellow Daoist , is it possible that do you recognize this Feng Mao?” Xu Luzi vision glittering, asked. “穆道友,你莫非认得这个冯茂？”徐鲁子目光闪烁了一下,问道。 „Did Grandmaster slow what this ask?” Shi Mu asked. “徐大师何出此问？”石牧反问道。 „Solemn Fellow Daoist , if knows that the details of this person, the old man is willing to have thousand Spirit Stone to buy.” Xu Luzi said. “穆道友若是知道此人的底细,老夫愿意出一千灵石买下来。”徐鲁子说道。 „Sorry, before below felt this person somewhat looks like me a friend who knows. However is careful looks, seemed like below admitting mistakes person.” Shi Mu said with a smile. “抱歉,在下只是觉得此人有些像我以前认识的一个朋友。不过仔细一看,似乎是在下认错人了。”石牧笑道。 „So that's how it is.” Xu Luzi deeply looked at Shi Mu one. Said. “原来如此。”徐鲁子深深看了石牧一眼。道。 „Then first said goodbye below.” Shi Mu looks but not see the Xu Luzi vision, nods toward two people. Walks toward outside. “那在下就先告辞了。”石牧对徐鲁子的目光视而不见,朝二人点了点头。朝着外面走去。 Field Storekeeper quickly walked, delivered Shi Mu personally. 田掌柜急忙走了过去,亲自将石牧送了出去。 Xu Luzi stands near the window, looks at the Shi Mu form distant place, turns the hand to take out a white jade slip, passes the Celestial Church promulgation Heavenly Dao to close-stitch impressively kills the command. 徐鲁子站在窗边,看着石牧身影远处,翻手取出一枚白色玉简,赫然正是通天仙教颁布的天道缉杀令。 On jade slip appears the Shi Mu image, his name. 玉简上浮现出石牧的影像,还有他的姓名。 „Shi Mu, but also somewhat is really unusual.” “石牧,还真有些与众不同。” Xu Luzi muttered, the chuckle shaking the head, turned the hand to receive jade slip. 徐鲁子喃喃自语了一句,轻笑着摇了摇头,翻手将玉简收了起来。 After the moment, the living room gate was shoved open again, field Storekeeper walked. 片刻后,客厅门再次被推开,田掌柜走了进来。 „Grandmaster slow, Liu An came, wants to see you.” Field Storekeeper said. “徐大师,柳岸来了,想要见您。”田掌柜道。 „Good, you first lead him to go to No. 2 reception room, I later on the past.” The Xu Luzi look moves, said. “好,你先带他去二号会客厅,我稍后就过去。”徐鲁子眼神一动,说道。 Field Storekeeper complied with one, but in tone some faint resentment. 田掌柜答应了一声,不过语气中隐隐有些怨气。 „Are you still caring about the matter of Tian Yu City unusual brightness pavilion?” Xu Luzi said. “你还在在意天虞城宝光阁发生的事情？”徐鲁子说道。 Field Storekeeper has not spoken, is default. 田掌柜没有说话,算是默认。 „Dark Moon Church had offered the compensation for the influence that the same day had, moreover gained chamber of commerce's high-level understanding, this matter then calculates that uncovered. don't must forget my Heavenly Wu Merchant Association getting along with people principle, does not participate in the secular dispute, all take the benefit as first, must let some prejudices not, affected your judgment.” Although the Xu Luzi tone is tranquil, but in words the meaning of concealed warning, making in the field Storekeeper heart shake. “冥月教已为当日造成的影响作出了赔偿,而且也得到了商会高层的谅解,此事便算揭过去了。莫要忘了我天吴商会的处世原则,不参与世俗纷争,一切以利益为先,莫要让一些偏见,影响了你的判断。”徐鲁子语气虽然平静,但是话语中隐含的告诫之意,让田掌柜心中一震。 „Yes, thank you Senior Teacher admonishes.” Field Storekeeper respectful saying, drew back. “是,多谢上师训诫。”田掌柜恭敬的说道,退了下去。 Xu Luzi takes up two Magic Tool that Shi Mu leaves behind, walked. 徐鲁子拿起石牧留下的两件法器,走了出去。 After the moment, in another reception room, wears the pale blue long gown, the blood sends the handsome youth of shawl to lower the head tea, the manner is optional, is Liu An. 片刻后,另一间会客厅之中,一名身着月白长袍,血发披肩的俊朗青年正低头饮茶,神态随意,正是柳岸。 In the meantime, out of the door hears sound of footsteps, then Xu Luzi pushed the door to walk. 就在此时,门外传来一阵脚步声,接着徐鲁子推门走了进来。 „Palace Master Liu, was sorry that something need to process, making you wait for a long time.” “柳殿主,抱歉有些事情需要处理,让你久等了。” „Grandmaster slow does not need to be polite.” Liu An said with a smile. “徐大师不必客气。”柳岸笑道。 „Palace Master Liu doesn't this, what matter know behavior today?” Xu Luzi sat opposite of Liu An, asking of coming straight to the point. “柳殿主今日来此,不知所为何事？”徐鲁子在柳岸对面坐了下来,开门见山的问道。 „Naturally that matter.” Liu An received the smile. “自然还是那件事。”柳岸收起了笑容。 Xu Luzi has not revealed accidental/surprised expression, has not spoken, resembles is waiting for Liu An to say the purpose in coming. 徐鲁子没有露出意外神色,也没有说话,似在等着柳岸说出来意。 „Counts years ago below to your excellency scheduled 25 desert great boats, does not know the preparation how?” Liu An asked. “在下数年前向阁下预定的二十五艘瀚海巨舟,不知准备的如何了？”柳岸问道。 „According to your excellency request, already preparation was similar. According to plan, but also took a half year then to deliver.” Xu Luzi said. “按照阁下的要求,已经准备的差不多了。按计划,还需要半年便可以交货了。”徐鲁子说道。 Liu An hears word is silent, the brow wrinkled slightly. 柳岸闻言默然,眉头略略皱了一下。 „What's wrong, what issue had?” Xu Luzi asked. “怎么了,有什么问题吗？”徐鲁子问道。 „Below this time, was wants your chamber of commerce to deliver half a month later.” Liu An said. “在下此次来,便是想要贵商会能够在半个月后交货。”柳岸说道。 „Is impossible! The desert great boat takes Spirit Tool, not only needs the material to be difficult to seek, refining the procedure/program is also quite numerous and diverse. Our already catches up to make according to the working procedure full power, was really not possible to be ahead of time.” Xu Luzi shakes the head to say directly. “不可能！瀚海巨舟作为灵器,不仅所需材料难寻,炼制程序也极为繁杂。我们已经按照工序全力赶造,实在不可能提前了。”徐鲁子直接摇头道。 „Below also knows that this request is somewhat awkward, but now the situation changes, probably needs to use this batch of great boats below ahead of time. The quantitative aspect, can only deliver 20, the expense below is willing in the total price foundation, to be many 30%, but also asked slow Elder to take on much.” Liu An said. “在下也知道这个要求有些为难,不过如今事态有变,在下可能需要提前用到这批巨舟。数量方面,可以只交付二十艘,费用在下愿意在总价基础上,多出30%,还请徐长老能够多多担待一下。”柳岸说道。 „Good, if 20, do not have the issue actually.” Xu Luzi said. “好吧,若是二十艘的话,倒是没有问题。”徐鲁子说道。 „That asked Grandmaster slow.” Liu An stand, good a ritual. “那就拜托徐大师了。”柳岸站了起来,行了一礼。 „Palace Master Liu does not need to be polite, this is the job of old man.” Xu Luzi said. “柳殿主不必客气,这是老夫的分内之事而已。”徐鲁子说道。 „In view of this, Liu visited half a month later.” Liu An has not treated, sets out to say goodbye to depart. “既如此,柳某半个月后再来拜访。”柳岸没有多待,起身告辞离去。 „Grandmaster slow, this Liu An this coming, for what matter? How then to leave quickly?” Field Storekeeper pushed the door to walk. “徐大师,这个柳岸这次前来,是为了什么事情？怎么这么快便离开了？”田掌柜推门走了进来。 „The matter of that batch of desert great boats, he wants to receive goods ahead of time.” Xu Luzi the condition that the request of Liu An and pledges, narrated simply. “还是那批瀚海巨舟的事情,他想要提前收货。”徐鲁子将柳岸的要求及开出的条件,简单叙述了一番。 Field Storekeeper hears word nods, perhaps according to the progress, the chamber of commerce headquarters also just built 32. 田掌柜闻言点了点头,按进度来看,恐怕商会总部也就刚刚打造完二十一二艘罢了。 „This Liu An is really not a simple character, as if all in it plans, Eastern Xian heaven has the disciple so, perhaps really can strive to turn the tide?” Xu Luzi eye pupil glittering, muttered. “这个柳岸果然不是个简单人物,似乎一切都在其算计中,东方冼天有徒如此,说不定真有可能力挽狂澜呢？”徐鲁子眼眸闪烁,喃喃自语道。 ...... …… At dusk, Silver Moon like the hook, the stars is densely covered. 傍晚时分,银月如钩,繁星密布。 Dashes from eastern Quyang entrance, is above mundane thoughts to go toward the East. 一匹单骑从曲阳城东门口飞奔而出,朝着东方绝尘而去。 Shi Mu rides that variation warhorse, Cai'er is squatting in the Shi Mu shoulder, without carrying a heavy load of meteoric iron blade stick, unusual lively, during several breath that the horses run, then vanished in the boundless dim light of night. 石牧骑着那匹异种战马,彩儿蹲在石牧肩头,没有陨铁刀棍的负重,马匹跑的异常轻快,几个呼吸间,便消失在了苍茫夜色中。 „Cai'er, this time whether to strike to kill a lion vulture, looked your.” Shi Mu said. “彩儿,这次能否击杀一头狮鹫,就看你的了。”石牧说道。 „Relax, this matter wraps on me!” Cai'er said. “放心吧,此事包在俺身上！”彩儿道。 The Shi Mu vision looks to the front, Heavenly Demon Sect, although sent out Black Wing Gryphon to monitor various Xixia country key communication lines, but the Quyang city after all was the Xixia capital city, they did not dare dissolutely sent here the lion vulture. 石牧目光看向前方,天魔宗虽然派出黑翼狮鹫监视西夏国各处交通要道,不过曲阳城毕竟是西夏都城,他们也不敢放肆的将狮鹫派到这里。 On arriving at the road in Quyang city, from the scopes of Quyang city 34 days of distances, then could not see the shadow of lion vulture. 在来到曲阳城的路上,距离曲阳城三四天路程的范围内,便看不到狮鹫的影子了。 Shi Mu is calculating, so long as speeds away a distance along this Great Dao toward the East, so long as the luck is not too bad, should be able to bump into the lion vulture army, has Cai'er let alone. 石牧盘算着,只要往东方沿着这条大道疾驰一段路程,只要运气不是太差,应该能碰到狮鹫部队,更何况还有彩儿在。 „Shi Tou (stone), you killed the Heavenly Demon Sect lion vulture, was not equal to that with them directly was the enemy?” Cai'er said. “石头,你杀了天魔宗的狮鹫,不是等于和他们正面为敌了吗？”彩儿道。 „How is! Heavenly Demon Sect with passing Celestial Church issues a warrant for arrest me with no reason at all in first, that fine river closes the owner ambush manpower to ambush me, this time is just right the one breath foul odor.” Shi Mu said. “是又如何！天魔宗与通天仙教无缘无故通缉我在先,那个嘉河关堂主埋伏人手伏击我在后,这次正好出一口气恶气。”石牧说道。 After two days . 两日后。 Desolated mountain range, Shi Mu moved along a mountain peak fast forward, did not have carrying a heavy load of meteoric iron blade stick, his speed was faster than before about half, just like together the shadow, fast in ravine jump vanguard. 一处荒芜山脉,石牧沿着一座山峰快速向前移动,没有了陨铁刀棍的负重,他的速度比之前快了近半,恍如一道影子,快速在山间跳跃前行。 Sky over mountain range, several sunspots circle in the upper air, is Heavenly Demon Sect Black Wing Gryphon . 山脉上空,几个黑点在高空盘旋,正是天魔宗的黑翼狮鹫。 Shi Mu cautious from ground close to lion vulture, before his also already did many investigations. 石牧小心翼翼的从地面靠近狮鹫,在来之前他也已经做了不少调查。 The Heavenly Demon Sect lion vulture is extremely difficult to throw seizes to strike to kill, on the one hand is because this birds flying speed is extremely fast, endurance, can long time stay in the sky. 天魔宗的狮鹫之所以极难扑捉击杀,一方面是因为这种飞禽飞行速度极快,持久力强,可以长时间停留在天空。 On the other hand, this lion vulture eyesight is keen, the under ground has the slight change unable to escape their eyes. 另一方面,这种狮鹫目力敏锐,下方地面有丝毫异动也逃不过它们的眼睛。 A moment later, he mounted nearby biggest barren hill, hides after a big stone, the vision looks to the midair lion vulture. 片刻之后,他登上了附近一座最大的荒山,藏身在一块大石之后,目光看向半空的狮鹫。 His side, does not know when has disappeared the Cai'er form.( To be continued.) 他的身旁,不知何时已不见了彩儿的身影。(未完待续。)
