The carriage had/left the inner city quickly, the good colt that several officers use was being pulled by unpaid laborer in city gate. 马车很快出了内城,几匹官用的良驹被白役们牵着等在城门口。 Xu Qi'an one group of transfer the fast horse, across the streets and bustling streets in outer city, only used half double-hour to leave the outer city, six ride picks up the speed immediately, rushed to Great Yellow Mountain. 许七安一行人换乘快马,穿过外城的一条条街道、闹市,仅用了半个时辰就离开外城,六骑立刻加快速度,火速赶往大黄山。 The horse that „officer uses runs is quick, this approached 50 yards, my previous life horse can run is so quick ....” Xu Qi'an whispered at heart. “官用的马跑的就是快,这都逼近五十码了,我上辈子的马能跑这么快吗....”许七安心里嘀咕。 Differences of spiritual energy content different bring in the novel can have frequently? 小说中常常会出现的灵气含量不同带来的差异？ This guess reasonable, because the Qi Refining instinct is law of the expiration and inspiration. 这个猜测是有道理的,因为练气本能是一种吐纳之法。 The group arrive in the Great Yellow Mountain edge when the high noon, stops in the major road, horse Shengxi on the tree trunk of roadside, after having eaten the dry rations, copies a narrow winding path to walk into the mountain. 一行人在正午时抵达大黄山边缘,在官道边停下,将马绳系在路边的树干上,吃过干粮后,抄了一条羊肠小道进山。 Six people are dashing about wildly hurrying along, after the quarter of an hour, arrived rivers that flows through the Great Yellow Mountain under foot. 六人狂奔着赶路,一刻钟后,来到了流经大黄山脚下的河流。 Along the rivers search moment, they found several fuzzy footprints, is about three feet, width one -and-a-half chi (0.33 m), there are four feet. 沿河流搜寻片刻,他们找到了几个模糊的脚印,长三尺左右,宽一尺半,有四趾。 Lu Qing and two colleague takes off the package that conducts the back, takes out the satchel charge, distributes to the Xu Qi'an three people: 吕青和两位同僚摘下背上的包裹,取出炸药包,分发给许七安三人: „Is centered on the claw seal, we go to the lower reaches to throw the satchel charge, you go to the upstream, looked that can compel the river monster.” “以爪印为中心,我们去下流丢炸药包,你们去上游,看能不能把妖物逼出河。” This was the arranged strategy. 这是早已定好的计策。 Management of Great Feng Dynasty to the gunpowder is strict, the formula security, makes the material also total that the gunpowder needs to be monopolized by the royal government. 大奉王朝对火药的管理非常严格,配方保密,制造火药所需的材料也全数被朝廷垄断。 Even Nightwatcher, and Lu Qing and other prefecture yamen quick workers, still know something to the ingredient of gunpowder. 即使是打更人,以及吕青等府衙快手,对火药的成分也只是略知一二。 Smells. 还是嗅出来的。 both sides light the satchel charge, invest the river water. 双方将炸药包点燃,投入河水。 „Bang!” “轰！” The depressed explosive sound resounds, the river water splashes several feet high. 沉闷的爆炸声响起,河水溅起数丈高。 Quick, the satchel charge exhausts, the group stand in the shore, the looks at billowing turbid wave, waited for a long time, not to see monster to emerge the river surface. 很快,炸药包耗尽,一行人站在岸边,看着滚滚浊浪,等了许久,并没有见到妖物浮出河面。 „If there is a Thaumaturge help of Directorate of Astronomy to be good.” Xu Qi'an says with emotion. “如果有司天监的术士帮忙就好了。”许七安感慨道。 Qi Viewing Technique can through observing monster qi locks the monster position. 望气术可以通过观测妖气来锁定妖物的位置。 Song Tingfeng „”, said in a low voice: „Directorate of Astronomy Thaumaturge may be nobler than our Nightwatcher, only obeys orders in His Majesty, this small case, do not count on that can work they.” 宋廷风“呵”了一声,低声道:“司天监的术士可比我们打更人更高贵,只听令于圣上,这种小案子,别指望能劳动他们。” Directorate of Astronomy is Thaumaturge very noble? How I did not feel, when you have not seen their face respect looks at me expression. 司天监的术士很高贵？我怎么不觉得,你是没见过他们一脸崇敬的看着我时的表情。 Xu Qi'an „un” nod. 许七安“嗯”的点点头。 both sides meet, Song Tingfeng shrugs: „It seems like it will not come out, my suggestion is walks into the mountain to have a look. If in Great Yellow Mountain really has anything.” 双方会合,宋廷风耸耸肩:“看来它是不会出来了,我的建议是进山看看。如果大黄山里真的有什么东西的话。” Xu Qi'an added: „First inspects lime burner to collect the limestone the area.” 许七安补充道:“先检查灰户们采集石灰岩的地区。” Lu Qing is hesitating nod. 吕青沉吟着点了点头。 Two groups of people walk into the mountain in turn, in tandem, is separated by dozens meters. 两拨人分批进山,一前一后,相隔数十米。 Song Tingfeng toward the Lu Qing back, pouts: „prefecture yamen the female Constable, the figure may be extraordinary, you look at that buttocks, compact solid, the both legs are powerful, you who can clamp are startled. Although the Music Office miss Water Spirit spirits, but was too delicate.” 宋廷风朝着吕青的背影,努了努嘴:“府衙的这位女捕头,身段可了不得了,你瞧那屁股,紧致结实,双腿有力,能夹的你魂飞天外。教坊司的姑娘虽然水灵灵的,但还是太柔弱了。” Approval, moreover this practicing martial art woman, has the horse A-wire, has the smooth curve and tight thigh, perhaps the abdominal muscles ..... this made me think my wife Duffas ..... Xu Qi'an considered saying: „But she was used to bind the chest probably, this was not good, will cause the chest to distort, sagging.” 赞同,而且这种习武的女人,有马甲线,有流畅的曲线和紧绷的大腿,没准还有浅浅的腹肌.....这让我想到了我的老婆蒂法.....许七安斟酌道:“可她好像习惯了裹胸,这可不好,会造成胸脯变形,下垂。” Song Tingfeng stares, haha laughs: „You really also noticed, I lacked one to look like you such interesting companion, Zhu Guangxiao was three cannot club a an arse puzzle.” 宋廷风一愣,哈哈大笑:“你果然也注意到了,我就缺一个像你这么有趣的同伴,朱广孝是个三棍打不出一个屁的闷葫芦。” Regarding the man, chatting the meat words forever is one not only interesting entertainment that and kills the time. 对于男人来说,聊荤话永远是一个既有趣又消磨时间的娱乐。 Zhu Guangxiao looked at his one eyes, remains silent not to speak. 朱广孝看了他一眼,闷声不说话。 lime burner mainly in Great Yellow Mountain prominent peak collection, group distant saw mountain massif that exposes the stone, like face on steadily floccosoids. 灰户主要在大黄山主峰采集,一行人远远的就看到了裸露出石块的山体,就像人脸上长了白斑。 Mining year after year, puts on hundred thousand of this standing tall and erect prominent peak destruction. 常年累月的开采,把这座高耸的主峰破坏的千穿百孔。 both sides aimless the search in the mountain for a long time, had not discovered what valuable thing. 双方在山中漫无目的的搜寻了许久,并没有发现什么有价值的东西。 Gathers together potable water, Lu Qing said: „ Great Yellow Mountain not only has the high-quality limestone, the rich vegetation, can fell to act as the dye, lime burner operates the kiln is quite convenient, along with digging along with fever, along with fever along with broken. 聚在一起饮水的时候,吕青道:“大黄山不但有优质的石灰岩,还有丰富的植被,可以就地砍伐充当染料,灰户们开窑极为方便,随挖随烧,随烧随碎。 „Foot also has the rivers, Transport is also convenient. But fuel/thin Sheng grey beautiful, strength half but benefits thick.” “山脚又有河流,漕运也方便。柴省而灰美,力半而利厚。” prefecture yamen another Bailiff added: „Therefore the tax revenue is also heavy, after cannot pick the ash, broke the way out.” 府衙的另一位捕快补充道:“所以税收也重,不能采灰后,就断了生路。” Therefore considered prefecture yamen to go .... Xu Qi'an silent, sighed: „Oppressive taxes expedite the refugee, the flesh and blood of the people are most delicious food.” 所以告到府衙去了....许七安沉默了一下,叹息道:“苛捐杂税催生流民,民脂民膏是最美味的食物。” The people are instantaneously silent, no one dares to do right after something else. 众人瞬间沉默,没人敢接茬。 Song Tingfeng coughs, shifts the topic: The words manpower who „the monster non- water leakage, searches for the mountain is insufficient. Constable Lu, you have anything to suggest.” 宋廷风咳嗽一声,转移话题:“妖物不出水,搜山的话人手不够。吕捕头,你有什么建议。” Although a moment ago also in greedy families' body, but Song Tingfeng not because this woman chest big buttocks curl upwards to despise her. 虽然刚才还在馋人家的身子,但宋廷风并不会因为这个女人胸大屁股翘而轻视她。 Lu Qing considers saying: „We fan out in three groups, two people are one group, looks for the head in nearby village respectively ; Returns to capital to convene to search for the recluse hand ; I go to Sir Prefecture Governor there to seek, looks for Directorate of Astronomy Thaumaturge to help.” 吕青斟酌道:“我们兵分三路,两人为一组,分别去找附近村落的里长;回京城召集搜山人手;我去府尹大人那里求一求,找个司天监的术士来帮忙。” „Such too wasted the time,” Xu Qi'an beckons with the hand, said: „Elects a person to look for the head in nearby village, remaining remains behind here.” “那样太浪费时间了,”许七安摆了摆手,说道:“选一个人去找附近村落的里长,剩下的留守这里。” Lu Qing knits the brows. 吕青皱了皱眉。 Xu Qi'an looked at her one eyes: „Without the harvest, I am responsible for Directorate of Astronomy looking for Thaumaturge.” 许七安看了她一眼:“如果没有收获,我负责去司天监找术士。” He said that has confidence very much .... Directorate of Astronomy can Thaumaturge listen his? 他说的很有把握似的....司天监的术士能听他的？ Lu Qing carefully examined the Xu Qi'an moment, the slight nod, sending a companion to invite the person. 吕青审视了许七安片刻,微微点头,派遣一位同伴去请人。 Less than half double-hour, Bailiff of that Essence Refining Boundary peak leads an old man to return. 半个时辰不到,那位炼精境巅峰的捕快带着一名老者返回。 „Villain is surnamed Zhang, is outside Great Yellow Mountain the head in Hegou Village.” Old men not too standard good a ritual, is agitated: “小人姓张,是大黄山外河沟村的里长。”老者不太标准的行了一礼,语气激动: „Villain waited till several Sirs finally, you did not come, in the village the common people went hungry.” “小人终于等到几位大人了,你们再不来,村里百姓就揭不开锅了。” This matter dragged the less than half year. 这事儿拖了小半年。 Lu Qing is staring at him, is sharp-eyed, the look is dignified: „this official asked you, finally walked into the mountain that more than ten people, died where?” 吕青盯着他,目光锐利,神色威严:“本官问你,最后进山那十余人,死在了何处？” „In the south side ....” Head is pointing at south the mountain range: „Goes from the reversed direction of rivers.” “在南边....”里长指着山脉南方:“是从河流的反方向进去的。” Song Tingfeng moves at heart: „Does that side have cave/brothel of incineration?” 宋廷风心里一动:“那边也有烧灰的窑子？” After the exploration, they discovered that incineration most crowded place, is not far from the rivers. lime burner detour to walk into the mountain, definitely does not dare to choose here incineration. 经过刚才的勘探,他们发现烧灰最密集的地点,距离河流不远。灰户们绕路进山,肯定不敢选择这边烧灰。 Because monster comes ashore, no one can escape. 因为妖物一上岸,谁都逃不掉。 The head nods: „Fragmentary several point, without here many.” 里长点头:“零星几个点儿,没有这边多。” „Leads us to go.” Lu Qing sinking sound said. “带我们去。”吕青沉声道。 „Yes!” The head as if dreads this female Constable very much. “是！”里长似乎很畏惧这个女捕头。 The group walk toward the south side, the mountain road is rugged, the climb is extremely difficult. Also must care about head bad old man, walked is not quick. 一行人往南边走去,山路崎岖,攀登极其困难。又要顾及里长这个糟老头子,走的并不快。 „Is here.” The head stops in narrow winding path, is pointing at the front, that is the open area that a piece was unearthed. “就是这里。”里长停在羊肠小道上,指着前方,那是一片被挖掘出的空地。 The quarry stone stack, the vegetation was felled, several mountain hole cave/brothel, are used for the incineration. 乱石堆积,植被遭砍伐,有几个山窟般的窑子,是用来烧灰的。 Several people searched for on the spot, had not discovered that valuable clue, here gave the person to clean up early. 几人现场搜寻了一番,没发现有价值的线索,这里早给人清理过了。 Song Tingfeng and Lu Qing look at each other, shakes the head. 宋廷风和吕青相视一眼,都摇了摇头。 Xu Qi'an said: „Enters cave/brothel to look.” 许七安道:“进窑子看一下。” Several people make use of local materials, ignite, extracts blade, discrete entry earthen kiln. 几人就地取材,点了火把,抽出佩刀,谨慎的进入土窑。 Thinks that is used for cave/brothel of incineration, will not be deep, may walk, Xu Qi'an and the others did not realize right. 原以为只是用来烧灰的窑子,不会太深,可走着走着,许七安等人意识到不对劲。 This where is cave/brothel, clearly is the tunnel that the population excavates, walked time of tea to arrive at the bottom. 这哪里是窑子,分明是人口开凿出的隧道,走了一盏茶的时间才走到底。 Song Tingfeng narrows the eyes to focus saying: „cave/brothel does not need to dig is so deep, this obviously is excavating anything, on stone wall does not have the trace of scorched by fire.” 宋廷风眯着眼道:“窑子不用挖这么深,这明显是在开凿什么东西,石壁上也没有烟熏火燎的痕迹。” Lu Qing draws on the head, drinks to ask: „What's the matter?” 吕青招来里长,喝问道:“怎么回事？” The head was ignorant, said slow: „I, I do not know...” 里长懵了,呐呐道:“我,我不知道啊...” Xu Qi'an is holding the flare, is observing the dike, careful survey moment in ground. Picks up a palm of the hand big white ore conveniently. 许七安举着火把,观察着岩壁,又在地面上仔细勘察片刻。随手捡起一块巴掌大的白色矿石。 What mining is this thing? 开采的是这东西？ This does not seem like the limestone. 这好像不是石灰岩吧。 The Xu Qi'an palm catches up, internal qi surges, „kacha” in sound, the white ore was pinched the powder by him. 许七安手掌发力,气机涌动,“咔擦”声里,白色矿石被他捏成了粉末。 He is holding the flare, scatters the powder thinks the flame. 他举着火把,把粉末撒想火焰。 Hū! 呼！ The flare flees instantaneously the roaring flame, bright yellow has the gloomy purple. 火把瞬间窜起烈焰,明黄中带着暗淡的紫色。 Niter?! 硝石？！ The Xu Qi'an pupil shrinks. 许七安瞳孔一缩。 The roaring flame that suddenly raises makes the people in rock cave be startled, blade has the sound of sheath to transmit one after another. 突然升起的烈焰让石窟内的众人吃了一惊,佩刀出鞘的声音接连传来。 Lu Qing sees is the ghost who Xu Qi'an does, the microstrip anger: „What do you do?” 吕青见是许七安搞的鬼,微带怒意:“你搞什么？”
