The time passes, in an instant passed by over half a month. 时间流逝,转眼间又过去了大半个月。 During this period, the caravan has not bumped into the big danger again, eastern Yin Quyu who even if occupies in flight Monster Beast, had not been attacked massively. 在此期间,商队没有再碰到大的危险,即便在飞行妖兽盘踞的东尹区域,也并未遭受到大规模的袭击。 Now, the caravan had arrived at the eastern Yin Quyu peripheral zone, from destination Green Dawn City also few day distances, this made the atmosphere of entire caravan also gradually relaxed. 如今,商队已来到了东尹区域的边缘地带,距离目的地苍旭城也没有几日路程了,这让整个商队的气氛也渐渐变得轻松起来。 On this day noon, the caravan arrived around great mountain range. 这一日晌午时分,商队来到了一座宏大山脉附近。 mountain range fluctuates, the mountain peak shape exceptionally is mostly precipitous, as if stretches out the bamboo shoots of ground towering, on the mountain massif the trees are luxuriant, look very attractive. 山脉起伏,山峰形状大都异常险峻,仿佛突兀伸出地面的竹笋,山体上树木茂盛,看起来非常漂亮。 The mountain breeze has blown, in mountain range spreads an intermittent strange sound, sharp, simple and beautiful, as if the Crane Chirp sound is common. 山风吹过,山脉中传出一阵阵奇怪的声音,尖锐,清丽,仿佛鹤鸣声一般。 The sound is not loud, but the quantity is extremely numerous, as if a lot of white cranes, stretch out the neck with one voice long cry in mountain range. 声音不大,不过数量极多,仿佛有千百只白鹤,在山脉中齐声引颈长鸣。 The people in caravan the first time is arrived here, hears this sound, in abundance curious looks to mountain range, some people look around everywhere, seek for the white crane that makes the sound. 车队中的人大都是第一次来到这里,听到这个声音,纷纷好奇的看向山脉,有人四处张望,寻找发出声音的白鹤。 Front is area the nearby famous Crane Chirp mountain range, but this sound is not really has Crane Chirp, but is the mountain peak has blown this place special plant, sound that the Crane Chirp grass makes.” On the second floating clouds vehicle from the bottom, Leng Yuetong looks at front mountain range, said. “前方就是附近一带大名鼎鼎的鹤鸣山脉,不过这个声音并不是真的有鹤鸣,而是山峰吹过此地一种特殊的植物,鹤鸣草所发出的声音。”倒数第二辆浮云车上,冷月彤看着前方的山脉,如此说道。 Crane Chirp mountain range......” Shi Mu muttering looking pensive, in the eye the unusual look flashes passes. 鹤鸣山脉……”石牧若有所思的喃喃道,眼中异色一闪即逝。 He has also studied on the road this time route that escorts the caravan, the sphere of influence of Crane Chirp mountain range fierce wing crane section. 他在路上也研究过了这次护送商队的路线,鹤鸣山脉正是凶蛮翼鹤部的势力范围。 The Crane Chirp mountain range surrounding area has more than ten thousand li (0.5 km) broad fully, the key communication lines in three big regions, is precipitous, is hard to pass through, only then the mountain range center has the path that was developed to pass through, or detours. 鹤鸣山脉方圆足有万余里之广,地处三大区域的交通要道,地势险峻,难以通行,只有山脉中央有一条被开拓出来的道路可以通行,或者绕路而过。 However the Crane Chirp mountain range topography are general, wants to detour to spend several times the time, therefore many trade routes clearly know that in the wing crane section has many risks, has to take among that path mountain range. 不过鹤鸣山脉地势广大,想要绕路过去要花费数倍的时间,所以很多商旅明知道翼鹤部中有很多风险,也不得不走山脉中间的那条道路。 Everyone listened!” In midair azure light flashes, a person's shadow appears, is Ling Chu. “所有人都听好了!”半空青光一闪,一个人影浮现而出,正是凌蜍 Below caravan people hears word, expression inspires, looks up. 下方车队众人闻言,纷纷神色一振,抬头望去。 „The situation in Crane Chirp mountain range, did not need me saying that you should know, everyone spunked up to me! Waited to cross this piece of mountain range, Green Dawn City was close at hand!” Ling Chu shouted. 鹤鸣山脉里的情况,不用我说,你们应该都知道,所有人都给我打起精神!等翻过这片山脉,苍旭城就近在眼前了!”凌蜍喝道。 Yes!” The people complied with one with one voice. “是!”众人齐声答应了一声。 Ling Chu satisfied nod, looked at one toward caravan finally, immediately before flying caravan, leading caravan to continue to go forward. 凌蜍满意的点了点头,朝着车队最后方看了一眼,随即飞到车队前,带领车队继续前进。 When the dim light of night arrives, the person arrived at cities at the foot of the hill moderate scale in the presence of everyone, Cloud Wing City. 当夜色降临之际,当众人来到了山脚下一处中等规模的城镇,云翼城 The guard in this city questioned simply, then adopted the examination. 这城的守卫只是简单盘查了一番,便通过了审查。 After entering the city, everyone got down the floating clouds car(riage), eight car(riage) crowding around in most, walks slowly. 入城后,所有人都下了浮云车,将八辆车簇拥在最中间,缓缓步行起来。 Because the people clothes vary, including Human Race also to have Barbarian Tribe, so a 60-70 people of team, pouring is also quite noticeable. 由于众人衣着打扮不一,其中有人族又有蛮族,如此一支60-70人的队伍,倒也颇为引人瞩目。 Here resident majority are haggard-looking wing crane section Barbarian Tribe, looks at the people so enormous and powerful caravan, in the look had not disclosed that many are too friendly and warm, even some people stare at the people to look steadily, often and has swept the middle floating clouds car(riage) with the greedy vision. 此处的居民大多数都是面容消瘦的翼鹤部蛮族,看着众人这般浩浩荡荡的商队,眼神中并没有透露出太多友好和热情,甚至还有一些人目不转睛的盯着众人看,并不时用贪婪目光扫过中间的浮云车。 However the these person, is Ling Chu of head sweeps occasionally obsolete with the vicious vision, mostly complexion changes has turned the head in abundance, does not dare to look at one again. 不过这些人,被为首的凌蜍偶尔用凶狠目光扫过时,大都面色一变的纷纷转过头去,不敢再多看一眼了。 This makes Ling Chu quite contented. 这让凌蜍颇为自得。 Shi Mu and the others have not relaxed similarly vigilantly, often observes all around situation. 石牧等人同样没有放松警惕,不时观察四周情况。 Is good because of the people completely is the Xiantian rank above expert, Ling Chu and Zhong Xiu is Earth Rank, existence of Moon Rank, no one dares to go forward to have a joke backfire. 好在众人尽皆是先天级别以上的高手,凌蜍钟秀更是地阶,月阶的存在,也没有人敢上前自讨没趣。 As far as eyes can reach, here architectural style is quite special, is primarily the apex, often can see the decoration of Manchurian crane shape, the relief, the design, making Shi Mu be first flabbergasted secretly, is opens mind greatly, actually nearby Leng Yuetong sees not the strange appearance. 一眼望去,此处建筑风格颇为特异,以尖顶为主,不时能看到仙鹤形状的装饰,浮雕,图案,让初次到访的石牧暗暗乍舌,也算是大开了眼界,倒是一旁的冷月彤一副见惯不怪的样子。 The town last night vividly makes noise similarly, a main road passed from the cities, extends in mountain range, was in mountain range the predecessor of that ancient road, by the path is each family style different store, the restaurant and inn. 城镇上夜间同样繁华喧闹,一条主道从城镇中间通过,延伸到了山脉之中,正是山脉中那条古道的前身,道路两旁是一家家风格迥异的商铺,酒楼和客栈。 Weather is late, before this Cloud Wing City is enters Crane Chirp mountain range , the last stand. This line everyone was also deficient, late at night hurries along to be perhaps more dangerous in Crane Chirp mountain range, then rests a evening.” Zhong Xiu arrives at frontline the team, discussed with Ling Chu. “天色已晚,这云翼城已是进入鹤鸣山脉前最后一站了。这一路行来大家也是乏了,深夜在鹤鸣山脉中赶路恐怕更危险,便休息一晚吧。”钟秀来到队伍最前方,与凌蜍商议道。 „The Young lady Zhong thoughts are exquisite, the consideration is complete, has this intent below, tonight then raises the essence to gather slightly, when the 2nd day early morning.” Ling Chu nods to say again and again. 钟姑娘心思细腻,思虑周全,在下也有此意,今夜便养精蓄略,待第二日清晨出发。”凌蜍连连点头道。 That lives in this inn.” Zhong Xiu does not have to the flattery of Ling Chu, looks to not far away roadside an inn of moderate scale. “那就住这个客栈吧。”钟秀凌蜍的奉承毫无所动,看向不远处路旁的一家中等规模的客栈。 This inn condition was also too bad, Ling had come to here before, remembers that front not far away then large-scale inn, the condition is excellent, moreover in the shop several local characteristics famous cuisine, the flavor is good, believes that Young lady Zhong will also like.” Ling Chu said. “这个客栈条件也太差了些,凌某以前来过这里,记得前面不远处便有一家大型客栈,条件极好,而且店内还有几道本地的特色名菜,味道非常不错,相信钟姑娘也会喜欢的。”凌蜍说道。 Ice Fellow Daoist , our times do not play, living extremely to be how could it not be conspicuous in that place?” Zhong Xiu frowns to say. “凌道友,我们此次并非游玩,住在那种地方岂不太过显眼?”钟秀蹙眉道。 Hehe, Young lady Zhong this word is bad, where we arrived here not to provide lodging, wanted not noticeably is not possible, in view of this, why so senseless careful!” Ling Chu said with a smile. “呵呵,钟姑娘此言差矣,我们来到了这里不管住在哪里,想要不引人瞩目是不可能的,既如此,何必这般无谓的小心!”凌蜍笑道。 The Zhong Xiu brow tip selects, some Ling Chu this words also truth, she pours is not quite good to refute. 钟秀眉梢一挑,凌蜍此话倒也有些道理,她倒也不太好反驳。 Has your me here, in addition your Heavenly Wu Merchant Association signboard, the thief who these do not enlarge ones vision wants us, but must think over.

I like actually very much, what a pity is not Parrot.” In the meantime, in the Shi Mu heart remembered the Cai'er sound. 石头,这个冷姑娘真的又火又辣,不过真是个大美女啊,你真的没兴趣?俺倒是很喜欢,可惜不是头鹦鹉。”就在此时,石牧心中想起了彩儿的声音。 Shut up!
