Soil of Qingqing/gently on the stele whisks off, Lu Sheng grasps single-handed, raises. Pū, then draws out the ground the stele fiercely. 轻轻将石碑上泥土拂去,路胜单手一抓,一提。噗的一下,便将石碑猛地拔出地面。 On under one meter high black stele falls a lot of soil detritus. 一米多高的黑色石碑上掉落下大量泥土碎屑。 In stele most, several lines of characters, although is slurred, but can also learn reluctantly. 在石碑的最下方,还有几行字,虽然模糊不清,但还能勉强看明白。 ‚Walks in own lonely, to desperate pain. Joyful, the life, the death, hopes’ ‘行走于自身的孤独,通往绝望的痛苦。喜悦,生命,死亡,希望’ Under these words, is some slight explanation same contents, Lu Sheng narrows the eye 11 to sweep, understands finally why oneself and the others could not find this so-called No Smiles Master. 这句话下面,是一些细微的解释一样的内容,路胜眯眼一一扫过,也终于明白,自己等人为什么找不到这个所谓的不笑主人了。 „This is nothing? Bored anomaly game?” He puts down the stele, looks all around. “这算什么？无聊的怪异游戏？”他放下石碑,环顾四周一圈。 „Everyone, goes back Green Tea Town, this investigation ended.” “所有人,都回去清茶镇,这次探查就此结束。” This saying, the Scarlet Whale Gang people stare immediately, but the command of Gang Lord is infrangible, no one has any question, lowers the head should be respectfully. 这话一出,顿时赤鲸帮众人都是一愣,但帮主之令不可违背,没人有任何质疑,都低头恭敬应是。 Xu Chui and Ning San carefully looked under that stele, they do not know the ancient Song typeface, does not know that Gang Lord saw anything, does not understand that the above writing is what meaning. But they know, surely is the content of this stele, making Gang Lord change the mind. 徐吹和宁三仔细看了下那石碑,他们不认识古宋体,也不知道帮主看到了什么东西,更不明白上边的文字到底是什么意思。但他们知道,必定是这石碑的内容,让帮主改变了主意。 The group return rapidly removes, only left behind the small number of people, defending is leads the way here. 一行人迅速回撤,只留下了少数人,守在这里算是引路。 Lu Sheng makes the person of Shouzai Village spigot staying behind, the urging absolutely do not go. The Scarlet Whale Gang numerous have had the experience that subjugates anomaly and ghostly thing, especially these defend in Lu Sheng guard, therefore they know how should do. Also can make people relieved, the body also provided many dwelling place product the medicinal powder of resistance illusion. The general illusion is invalid to them. 路胜让留下之人守在村子口,叮嘱绝对不要进去。赤鲸帮众很多都有过征讨怪异和鬼物的经历,特别是这些守在路胜身边的近卫,所以他们知道该怎么做。也能让人放心,身上还配备了不少丹房出品的抵抗幻觉的药粉。一般的幻觉对她们都无效。 Has not stayed, Lu Sheng has the Yan Kai three people to return to Green Tea Town. Although three people have doubts, but knows that Scarlet Whale Gang so acts, has their truth inevitably, after all Scarlet Whale Gang has the Elder rank expert to fall into anomaly, life and death unknown, is impossible easily to let off this case. 没有丝毫停留,路胜带着颜开三人一路回到清茶镇。三人虽然疑惑,但知道赤鲸帮如此行动,必然有他们的道理,毕竟赤鲸帮可是有长老级别高手陷入怪异中,生死不明,绝不可能轻易放过这个案子。 „Said on such as Zhao Long, that place, only then went in the fixed time, can see the thing that wanted to see.” “就如朝龙所言,那个地方,只有在固定的时间去,才能见到想要见到的东西。” In the Tea Gang study room, Lu Sheng crosses the hands behind the back to stand, to nearby Yan Kai Xu Chui and the others tranquil say/way. 茶帮的书房中,路胜负手而立,对着边上的颜开徐吹等人平静道。 „Fixed time? Then, before the No Smiles Master legend, happened in the midnight double-hour, will have this time difficultly inadequately, No Smiles Master will appear?” Yan Kai said in a low voice. “固定的时间？说起来,之前不笑主人的传说,都是在夜半时辰发生,难不成只有这个时间,不笑主人才会出现？”颜开低声道。 „Is Mister Yan Kai interested in this legend very much?” Lu Sheng looks with a smile to him. “颜开先生对这个传说很感兴趣吗？”路胜笑着看向他。 „Eh a little. However since Gang Lord Lu goes into action personally, this matter will not have the issue surely.” Yan Kai polite say/way. “额有一点。不过既然路帮主亲自出马,此事必定不会有问题。”颜开客气道。 „But that East Roaming Flood Dragon Zhao Long, unexpectedly such from afar, to come this small town looks for No Smiles Master, has the secret facts to attempt surely.” Duan Rongrong low voice reminder. “但那个东游蛟朝龙,居然这么远万里迢迢,就为了过来这个小镇找不笑主人,其中必定有隐情企图。”段蓉蓉小声提醒。 „Doesn't matter, finds a time I to go in the evening personally. That place, going to many of significances is not big, regardless of many people, the faced thing is the same.” Lu Sheng shakes the head to say. “没关系,找个时间晚上我亲自去一趟。那个地方,去多少人意义都不大,无论多少人,面对的东西都一样。”路胜摇头道。 „Needs me to accompany you together?” The little umbrella female does not know where from braves, suddenly walks from the bookshelf of study room. “需要我陪你一起吗？”小伞女不知道从哪冒出来,突然从书房的一个书架后面走出来。 „Does not use, quick, quick can solve.” Lu Sheng said with a smile. „This we simplify the population to go again. However not necessarily is today.” “不用,很快,很快就能解决。”路胜笑道。“这趟我们精简一下人数再去。不过不一定是今天。” Others do not know what meaning that he said that but since opened the mouth as Gang Lord Lu Sheng, others do not dare to talk too much. 其余人不知道他说的什么意思,但既然作为帮主的路胜都这么开口了,其他人也不敢多言。 The people after the Tea Gang recuperation, Tea Gang also found the person of that taking a walk rumor. 众人在茶帮休整了一阵后,茶帮也将那个散步传言的人找了出来。 As expected, that person had died for several days, the corpse became stale in home is discovered. When the Tea Gang person found him, the neighbor of family member only knows that he died many date and time. 不出所料,那人已经死了好几天了,尸体在家中发臭了才被人发现。茶帮的人找到他时,那家人的邻居这才知道他死了不少时日。 The clue is all cut off. All fall into the chaos. 线索全断掉。一切又陷入混沌中。 The time flies, was several days passes by an instant. 时间飞逝,一转眼便是数天过去了。 Yan Kai and the others saw Lu Sheng not to plan to move again, cannot see the Zhao Long trace in the town/subdues, knows that he defends there surely, the heart is also then anxious. 颜开等人见路胜不打算再动,在镇上也看不到朝龙的踪影,知道他必定是守在那里,便心头也焦急起来。 Was in front, Yan Kai is asking Lu Sheng several times, not acted reply. Waiting for a long time several days, he but, then has to bring Senior Brother Wan Hezi and Duan Rongrong, goes to that small village quietly again 当着面,颜开试着问了路胜几次,都没有得到行动的回答。久等数日,他无奈之下,便只好带着师兄万和子及段蓉蓉,悄悄再度前往那小村子 In the mountain forest the bad fog fills the air, is the white fog is everywhere misty. 山林中大雾弥漫,到处都是白雾蒙蒙。 Yan Kai and Wan Hezi Duan Rongrong three people, return to the village , before familiar and easy. 颜开和万和子段蓉蓉三人,一路轻车熟路回到村子前。 The mountain village silencing in mist silent, surrounding sounds of people cannot hear. Is much more peaceful. 雾气里的山村静寂无声,周围一点人声也听不到。安静得可怕。 The Yan Kai station the village entrance, looked down the surroundings. 颜开站到村子门口,低头看了看周围。 „Person? The person of Scarlet Whale Gang guarding, isn't the Roaming Heart Group person, here? How can't see?” “人呢？赤鲸帮驻守的人,还有心游会的人,不是都在这里吗?怎么一个都看不见？” To complete to investigate the Zhao Long duty, must follow closely the Zhao Long team not to stop. Before he wanted to borrow the strength, succeeded and Lu Sheng makes contact with the line, was only the later development is unsatisfactory, Scarlet Whale Gang withdrew most manpower unexpectedly, was so then motionless. 要想完成调查朝龙的任务,就必须一刻不停的紧随朝龙队伍。之前他想要借力,也成功和路胜搭上线,只是之后的发展却不如人意,赤鲸帮居然撤回大部分人手,然后就这么不动了。 Lu Sheng seems to be waiting for anything, since looking at that stele, he has then held troops. 路胜似乎在等待什么,自从看了那个石碑后,他便一直按兵不动。 The Yan Kai three people of helplessness, Dugu Family Bounty List has the time limit. Has towed, what is most troublesome is Wan Hezi. 颜开三人无奈,独孤家的悬赏榜可是有时间限制的。一直拖下去,最麻烦的还是万和子。 But, three people can only act. 无奈之下,三人只能自行行动。 At this time stood in the village spigot, Yan Kai then and Duan Rongrong exchanged under the look. 此时站在村子口,颜开回头和段蓉蓉交换了下眼神。 „senior brother, your do not go , in the evening I and Rongrong go in alone, you use the ability to peep at outside, finding the person was good, other did not need to manage.” Yan Kai said in a low voice. “师兄,你这趟就不要进去了,等到晚上我和蓉蓉单独进去,你用能力在外窥视,找到人就好,其他不用管。”颜开低声道。 „That how line!” Wan Hezi shakes the head with deep veneration, „this matter is my behavior, Bounty List is also my one person receives, you have nothing to do with Junior Brother Rongrong. This matter I alone go on the line. Mentioned speaks the joke, some Senior Brother confidence.” He squeezes a somewhat reluctant smiling face. “那怎么行！”万和子肃然摇头,“此事是我一人所为,悬赏榜也是我一人接下,和师弟蓉蓉你们无关。此事我一个人进去就行。说起讲笑话,师兄还是有些信心的。”他挤出一个有些勉强的笑容。 „senior brother” Yan Kai sees the firmness of Wan Hezi, Wan Hezi this person, sometimes very bracelet, but earnest time, was absolutely credible and insisted. He when the decision that the earnestness makes, that will not certainly change. “师兄”颜开看出万和子的坚决,万和子这人,有时候很跳脱,但认真的时候,又绝对靠谱和坚持。他在认真时做出的决定,那就一定是不会更改。 „Let alone. I know that the Junior Brother you are good for me, but, this matter person works a person to work as, the calamity that I rush, I undertake.” The Wan Hezi categorical say/way, said, then foot treads into the village without hesitation, in an instant then submerges in the thick fog to vanish quickly does not see. “别说了。我知道师弟你们是为我好,不过,此事一人做事一人当,我自己闯下的祸,我自己承担。”万和子斩钉截铁道,说完,毫不犹豫便一脚踏入村子里,转眼便快没入浓雾中消失不见。 „senior brother!” Yan Kai two people unexpected, hurries to pursue, what anomaly is, just left their Wan Hezi, goes out of several steps then to vanish to disappear. “师兄！”颜开两人猝不及防下,赶紧追上去,但怪异的是,刚刚才离开他们的万和子,才走出几步便消失不见了。 At this time quiet at dead of night, the white fog is dim, the surroundings cannot hear the least bit sound of footsteps. 此时夜深人静,白雾朦胧,周围根本听不到半点脚步声。 Yan Kai is drawing Duan Rongrong, is trying to find out the advance along the wall. The hand according to icy cold rough village stone wall, often also touches to some creamy mosses, is less careful steadily does not stop. 颜开拉着段蓉蓉,沿着墙壁摸索着前进。手按在冰凉粗糙的村子石壁上,不时还摸到一些滑腻腻的青苔,不小心些根本稳不住手。 Two people heart somewhat is anxious, here fell Scarlet Whale Gang Elder level expert the place of trouble, even his two experiences are rich, fortifying at every step that must be careful, muddling through, to/clashes slowly like Senior Brother Wan Hezi, was too dangerous. 两人心头都有些急,这里可是陷了赤鲸帮长老级高手的麻烦之地,就算是他两经验丰富,也必须小心的步步为营,慢慢摸索前进,像万和子师兄那样一口气冲进去,太危险了。 „Rongrong, with tightening me!” “蓉蓉,跟紧我！” „Knows!” “知道！” Yan Kai heard behind reply sound, the heart decided slightly, they can always travel to be safe and sound everywhere, biggest taking advantage, was keen response of within the body bloodlines to the dangerous and threat. At this time within the body had not responded, wants to come good all. 颜开听到身后的回答声,心头稍微定了定,他们两人一直以来能够到处游历而安然无恙,最大的依仗,便是体内血脉对危险和威胁的敏锐反应。此时体内没反应,想来一切还好。 Pulls Rongrong, Yan Kai is following stone wall to try to find out slowly, pair of eyes ear highly vigilant is staring at all around. 牵着蓉蓉,颜开慢慢顺着石壁摸索进去,双眼耳朵高度警惕的盯着四周。 . 啪。 Suddenly front has a silhouette to flash through fuzzily, seems like Senior Brother Wan Hezi. 忽然前面有一道人影模糊闪过,似乎是师兄万和子。 „senior brother!” Yan Kai shouted one lowly, drew Rongrong then to pursue. “师兄！”颜开低呼一声,拉着蓉蓉便追上去。 The person's shadow has not stayed, a revolution, then rushed to stone steps fiercely, then turns in a stone building. 人影没有停留,猛地一转,便冲上了一道石阶,然后拐进一间石屋内。 Yan Kai paused, Congealing Spirit/concentrates proceeds to look slightly, if really saw is Wan Hezi wipes the lower hem corner. 颜开稍稍顿了顿,凝神往前看去,果真看到了是万和子的一抹衣角。 He does not hesitate, clenches teeth, loosens the hand of Rongrong. 他再不犹豫,咬咬牙,松开蓉蓉的手。 „Rongrong you are waiting in out of the door, I pursue the Senior Brother!” “蓉蓉你就在门外等着,我去追师兄！” „Good!” “好！” The Duan Rongrong sound conveys faintly. 段蓉蓉的声音隐隐传来。 Yan Kai has not thought, pushes the door to follow to crash in the stone building. 颜开也没多想,推门跟着冲进石屋。 Inside is a courtyard, empty, Wan Hezi is traceless, does not know where ran up. 里面是一片院子,空荡荡,万和子踪影全无,也不知道跑到哪去了。 Yan Kai draws out the back long sword slowly, vigilant is staring at the surroundings. Walks toward the room hall step by step. 颜开缓缓拔出背后长剑,警惕的盯着周围。一步步朝着屋子正堂走去。 …… 啪 …… 啪啪啪 Suddenly the bean big raindrop falls rapidly. 忽然豆大的雨点迅速掉落下来。 The thick white fog, like blown off the common, rapid naked eye obvious speed by the wind starts to dissipate. However several breaths, all mist then diverge thoroughly. 浓密的白雾,如同被风吹散一般,迅速肉眼可见的速度开始消散。不过数息,所有的雾气便彻底散去。 kāchā. 咔嚓。 The sky thunder and lightning has delimited together, the thunderclap is billowing, rumble makes noise.

The wooden door of stone building is closed, inside by the window paper, sees to sit a person faintly. 他正站在一个石屋内的院落里,正前方,便是一个亮着光的石屋正堂。石屋的木门关闭着,里面透过窗户纸,隐隐看到坐着一个人。 He narrows the eyes, backs up slowly, the mist dissipates too quickly, somewhat went against the natural common sense. 他眯起双眼,缓缓倒退,雾气消散得太快,以至于有些违背自然常理了。 But that at present presents, that sits in the hall hall person, in No Smiles Master with legend presents the way to be extremely similar. 而眼前出现的一幕幕,那个坐在正堂大厅里的人,和传说中的不笑主人出现方式极其相似。 He has not prepared to face directly here legend 他还没做好准备直面这里的传说 „Aiya, here has the bright, here here!!
