You looked that side several female is long is really water spirit! The words saying Shi Tou (stone), which person can your meeting challenge? Before so many people, do not lose face to me!” “石头,这擂台真是大呀！哇,你看那边几个女的长得真是水灵哇！话说石头,你一会要挑战哪一个人？在这么多人面前,你可别给俺丢脸哇！” „Peaceful, otherwise enters in the Soul Pet bag to treat.” Shi Mu knocked a head of Cai'er gently. “安静点,否则就进灵宠袋里待着。”石牧轻轻敲了一下彩儿的脑袋。 Cai'er hears word, the body shakes, immediately closed the mouth, but a small eye was still round and round toward the surroundings sweeps off. 彩儿闻言,身子骨一抖,顿时闭上了嘴巴,不过一双小眼睛仍旧骨溜溜朝着周围扫去。 The Shi Mu brow slightly wrinkle, does not want to bring Cai'er to come, but Cai'er acts shamelessly today desperately, must follow, he does not have the means that so long as brought. 石牧眉头微皱,本来不想带彩儿过来,但是彩儿今天死命耍赖,死活非要跟着过来,他没有办法,只要带过来了。 „Big Brother Shi, you hid here, harms me quite to look!” At at this moment, a clear female voice passed from side. “石大哥,你原来躲在这里,害我好找！”就在此刻,一个清脆女声从旁边传了过来。 Shi Mu turns the head to look, is actually Mǎ Lóng, a face smiling is looking at itself. 石牧转头看去,却是马珑,正一脸笑盈盈的望着自己。 „Horse miss, congratulated you to adopt the big ratio.” Shi Mu said. “马姑娘,恭喜你通过了大比。”石牧说道。 „Compared with Senior Brother Shi, younger sister's result is not worth mentioning! Right, today challenges the high-rank disciple, by Senior Brother Shi strength, should have confidence greatly.” Mǎ Lóng is nodding to Shi Mu shoulder on Cai'er, said. “和石师兄比起来,小妹的成绩根本不值一提！对了,今日挑战上位弟子,以石师兄的实力,应该也大有把握吧。”马珑对着石牧肩上的彩儿点了点头,如此说道。 „these high-rank disciple is the having god-given wisdom rare talent, where I had confidence, does everything possible.” Shi Mu hehe smiles, said. “这些上位弟子一个个都是天纵奇才,我哪有什么把握,尽力而为吧。”石牧呵呵一笑,说道。 „Shi Tou (stone), you looked that that side is quite lively, some probably people in gambling house! Do we have a look?” Two people are chatting, Cai'er gathers near the Shi Mu ear, mumbled low voice. “石头,你看那边好热闹哇,好像有人在开赌局！我们也去看看吧？”两人正在谈笑,彩儿凑到石牧耳边,小声嘟囔道。 Shi Mu and Mǎ Lóng hears word, turns the head the direction that follows Cai'er to refer to look. 石牧与马珑闻言,转头顺着彩儿所指的方向看去。 Sees only in the open area of not far away, suspended several square tables impressively, the table upper berth the gambling special-purpose paper, several azure clothes people stand behind the table, shouts at the top of one's voice to call, the stance of solemn gambling house. 只见不远处的一处空地上,赫然摆了几张方桌,桌子上铺了赌博专用的纸张,几个青衣人站在桌子后面,扯开嗓子吆喝,俨然一副赌局的架势。 „This...... does Azure Orchid Holy Land as the orthodox school big faction, permit the behavior of this blatantly gambling unexpectedly?” Shi Mu said. “这……青兰圣地作为正宗大派,竟然允许这种公然赌博的行为？”石牧说道。 „Hehe, Junior Brother Shi was friendless and unlearned! Our Azure Orchid Holy Land is heavy regarding disciple's management in the heart is not heavy in the shape, but is some small gambling houses, harmless, counter- may raise the morale, the Sect elder protect the law will not naturally manage.” In the meantime, a person's shadow does not know when appears by the Shi Mu two people, is actually Qīng Cháng Tiān. “呵呵,石师弟孤陋寡闻了吧！咱们青兰圣地对于弟子的管理重于心而不重于形,不过是些小小的赌局,无伤大雅,反可鼓舞士气,宗门的长老护法们自然是不会管的。”就在此时,一个人影不知何时出现在石牧二人身旁,却是青长天。 „Azure brother, your movement even more mysteriously appeared and disappeared, if who becomes enemies with you, but was really even cultivation closes up is with trepidation.” Shi Mu looked at opposite party one eyes, said with a smile. “青兄,你这身法是愈发神出鬼没了,谁要是与你结了仇,可真是连修炼闭关都要提心吊胆了。”石牧看了对方一眼,笑道。 „Brother Shi, looked that your facial expression is relaxed, is it possible that was already confident?” Qīng Cháng Tiān nods to Mǎ Lóng, has greeted, saying that immediately Hehe smiles. “石兄,看你神情轻松,莫非已经成竹在胸了？”青长天对马珑点了点头,算是打过招呼,随即嘿嘿一笑的说道。 „Azure Senior Brother chatted, as far as I know, the these high-rank disciple immerses mostly for over hundred years in this sacred place, is not first round these low-rank disciples may compare. Although Shi is proud some strength, but is not the extent that to pull rank.” Shi Mu shakes the head, said. “青师兄说笑了,据我所知,这些上位弟子大都在这圣地沉浸百年以上,可不是第一轮那些下位弟子可比的。石某虽然自负有些实力,但是也不至于如此托大。”石牧摇了摇头,说道。 „Shi Tou (stone), these gambling houses are very probably interesting, we have a look.” Cai'er digression suddenly called out. “石头,那些赌局好像挺有意思,我们也去看看吧。”彩儿忽的插话叫道。 „This Parrot is Junior Brother Shi Soul Pet, the spirit wisdom is so unexpectedly big, is actually very rare.” Qīng Cháng Tiān looked at Cai'er one, said. “这鹦鹉是石师弟的灵宠吧,灵智竟然如此大开,倒是少见得很。”青长天看了彩儿一眼,说道。 Cai'er shot a look at Qīng Cháng Tiān one, did intentionally the arrogant revolutions the line of sight. 彩儿瞥了青长天一眼,故作傲慢的转开了视线。 „This Parrot besides is boisterously more gluttonous, without other skills, making the azure brother be laughed.” Shi Mu said with a smile. “这鹦鹉除了聒噪贪吃些外,也没有其他本事,让青兄见笑了。”石牧笑道。 „Haha!
