Early morning Auspicious Light City, rains hard. Rainfall intensity actually continuous like curtain, the sound is unceasing, the water on flagging is flowing along the both sides escape canals, running downstream. 清晨的瑞光城,又下起大雨。雨势却连绵如帘,哗哗之声不绝,石板路上的积水沿着两侧的排水沟渠流淌着,往下游冲泄而去。 Zhang Yu daoist robe, sits under the heavenly stage obstructing awning, looks at present rain scenery, under foot grandeur academy, is distant place that alone Goddess Peak, at this moment cage during misty rains were dim. 张御一身道袍,坐在天台的遮棚之下,看着眼前的雨景,无论是脚下壮伟的学宫,还是远处那孤寂的神女峰,此刻都笼在了一片烟雨朦胧之中。 Before his body, in plate of paint case, places the assorted fruit that Ren Yi and the others sent. 他身前漆案的盘盏上,摆放任义等人送来的各色水果。 These are these miscellaneous storehouse corvee intentions, to thank him saved various people the life yesterday. 这些都是那些杂库力役的心意,为的是感谢他昨日救了诸人的性命。 corvee are goes all out to live, usually makes some meager mouth money to support the family member, these fruits and vegetables that only then oneself plant also calculate that with acts. 力役们都是卖力气活的,平常挣些微薄的口钱养活家里人,只有自家栽种的这些果蔬还算拿得出手。 He has not declined, received at the scene. 他也没有推辞,当场就收了下来。 He knows, because of „old Yang” the matter, enabling these corvee to be worried about the oneself following destiny, only then oneself received, they will feel relieved. 他知道,因为“老杨”的事,使得这些力役在担心自己接下来的命运,只有自己收了,他们才会感到安心。 Yesterday he and Xin Yao discussed many words, this time incident in reality is on Political Council extensions of two schools of influence struggles. 昨天他与辛瑶谈了不少话,这次的事端实际上是都堂上两派势力斗争的延续。 Profound Mansion and Divine Army grasp existence of superior strength as Protectorate two, actual has had in the power and responsibility conflict. 玄府和神尉军作为都护府两个掌握超常力量的存在,实际在权责上一直是有所冲突的。 Originally according to the Celestial Xia rituals of state, Profound Mansion occupies the absolute upstream, does not participate in the concrete trivial matters, even Protectorate to a certain extent must listen to its suggestions, but Divine Army exists as the Profound Mansion dependency. 本来按照天夏的礼制,玄府占据绝对上游,并不参与具体俗务,连都护府在一定程度上也要听取其意见,而神尉军更是作为玄府的附庸而存在。 But with the arrival of Chaos Tide, all was different. 可是随着浊潮的到来,一切都不同了。 60 years ago Hong River Pass that war, Profound Mansion loses extremely seriously, although succeeded in stopping on this piece of continent the recovery of ancient strength, making Eastern Court Protectorate successfully persevere, may also lose highest -level strengths, even low level disciple was ten does not save one. 六十年前洪河隘口那一战,玄府损失极其惨重,虽然成功遏制了这片大陆上古老力量的复苏,使得东廷都护府成功坚守了下来,可也丧失了绝大部分的高层力量,甚至连底层弟子也是十不存一。 The difference is that although Divine Army also same damages big, may because of its characteristics, in the strength recovered on actually to go far beyond Profound Mansion, therefore to the present, is in turn the suppression. 所不同的是,神尉军虽然也一样损伤不小,可因为其特性,在力量恢复上却是远远超过了玄府,所以到了如今,已是反过来将之压制了。 After the contact of Celestial Xia native place cuts off, Protectorate upper layer also same experienced a big change, afterward attitude also continuously indecisive between two. On the one hand this does not want to make Profound Mansion again prosperous, on the other hand is afraid Divine Army to be uncontrolled. 而在与天夏本土的联系断绝后,都护府上层也一样经历了一场不小变动,后来的态度也一直是在两家之间摇摆不定。这一方面是不想让玄府再度兴盛起来,另一方面又害怕神尉军不受控制。 Therefore in recent years, two schools of strengths continuously at mutual battle. 所以这些年来,两派力量一直在相互争斗的。 According to Xin Yao, on this time Scholars' Discussion, Profound Mansion and Peaceful Sun Academy, because prepared fully, made Divine Army suffered a little loss, its should to retrieve the loss, therefore caused this kind of method. 据辛瑶所言,在这一次士议上,玄府及泰阳学宫因为准备充分,令神尉军吃了一点亏,其等应该是为了找回损失,故才弄出了这等手段。 Although Zhang Yu was preventing the Divine Army behavior accidentally, but he understands, the strength that oneself has now is also not enough to participate in these two gambling. 张御虽然在无意中阻止了神尉军的行为,但他明白,自己现在所具备的力量还不足以参与到这两家的博弈中。 His also need many spirit essence come read Grand Dao Chapter, to promote oneself cultivation base. 他还需要更多的神元来观读大道之章,以提升自己的修为。 Yesterday's matter caused medicine material that he previously purchased to be destroyed, Ren Yi has complied to purchase for him, but here loss will be compensated by academy. 昨天的事导致他先前采买的药材都是被毁,任义已是答应为他重新购置,而这里的损失会由学宫来补偿。 He does not care to these, but cared whether to purchase these to conceal source energy bone fragment again. 他对这些倒不在意,只是关心能否再采买到那些隐含源能的骨片。 He thinks that this thing absolutely will not is only one, should have in that small firm, originally this grade of matter he should go personally, that can process time, but Xin Yao told him, Su Kuang that here was seized was Divine Army corporal, according to the Divine Army class, was divided into the soldiers, corporal, squad leader and army inspector, as well as the nominal chief of the Divine Army, the Army Lord. 他认为这东西绝对不会只是一枚,在那家小商行里应该还有,本来这等事他应该亲自去走一趟,那一次便可处理好了,不过辛瑶告诉他,这里被捉起来的苏匡是神尉军的伍长,按照神尉军的阶层,分为士卒、伍长、队率及军候,以及名义上总领神尉军的尉主。 It is said Su Kuang is deep the trust of Low Army Inspector Pang Gong, moreover Divine Army will work will not care about the consequence sometimes, the institute thinks own safety idea, urging his this period of time should better to treat in academy. 据说苏匡深得下军候庞巩的信任,而且神尉军做事有些时候根本不会顾及后果,所以为自身安全计,劝他这段时日最好待在学宫内。 He recalled that yesterday's and a Su Kuang war, the strength of this person is actually not weak, it has a low opinion of the enemy, comes up to cause heavy losses by him, but uses own speed and concealment correctly can, that is not so easy to cope. 他回想起昨天与苏匡的一战,此人的战力其实并不弱,要不是其过于轻敌,一上来就被他所重创,而是正确利用好自身的速度和隐匿能为,那绝不是那么容易对付的。 Only he although at that time only used two swords, the mind of but consuming is actually many, particularly finally that sword, remote wields the blade spatially, the breath pulls intent, even he, still felt the slight exhaustion at that time. 只他当时虽仅出了两剑,但消耗的心神却是不少,尤其是最后那一剑,遥空挥刃,呼吸牵意,即便是他,当时也是感到了些微的疲累。 However after at that time did slightly controls one's breathing, immediately eliminated these negative impacts, now has fully restored. 不过当时稍作调息后,便就消除了这些负面影响,现在更已是完全恢复了过来。 He reminded oneself secretly, after this approach , can not as a last resort, must little use. The consumption mind is next, mainly after is sword lets go, if not successful, then had the danger. 他暗暗提醒自己,这种做法以后不得万不得已,还是要少用。消耗心神是其次,主要是剑器脱手后,要是不成功,那么接下来就有危险了。 Naturally, this is only he reconsiders the summary at this moment. 当然,这只是他此刻的反思总结。 When intense life and death fighting, each sword goes out to probably have the faith that must win, some slightly hesitant suspicions, or flinch to retain, that suffers a defeat and flees is oneself, cannot allow any to keep the hand. 在激烈的生死搏杀之时,每一剑出去都必需要有必胜的信念,稍有犹豫怀疑,或者退缩保留,那败亡的就是自己,容不得任何留手。 He put out a hand, lifted wooden casing cover, took Xia Sword from, drew out from the sheath the sword blade, used a cotton fabric to start to clean. 他伸出手,掀开了身旁的木匣盖子,从里将夏剑拿了出来,将剑身从鞘中拔出,就用一块棉布开始擦拭起来。 But he can feel, in this moment Chaotic Chapter of the Grand Dao, "sword seal" must be slightly brighter than before, this explained that experienced yesterday that post-war, his communication with this sword has gone a step further. 而他能感觉到,此刻大道浑章之中,“剑印”比之前还要稍微明亮一些,这说明经历了昨日那一战后,他与此剑的沟通已是更进一步了。 Although sword and controlling seals has the stress respectively, but two printed books are the bodies, the light has the sword, but not drives a horse, still lacked one point, is not very perfect. 只是“剑”、“驭”二印虽各有侧重,可两印本为体,光有剑,而无驭,仍是缺了一环,不够完满。 He is pondering over, gets down, if after resulting in spirit essence, how regardless of must make up controlling seal together, otherwise looks at is really uncomfortable. 他思忖着,下来若是得了神元后,无论如何也要把驭印也一起补上,不然看着实在太不舒服了。 After cleaning Xia Sword, he in this obstructs under the awning to sit in meditation. 待擦拭完夏剑后,他就在这遮棚之下打坐。 Arrived close to day in time, he swept the dwelling place reorganization sprinkled, quite used some time. 到了临近日中的时候,他将居处整理扫洒了一下,颇用了一些时间。 He thought of oneself also to teach the scholar Hard Claw Tribe language at this time next month, the certainly matter must many, if the inside and outside are all processed by a oneself person, although also yes, but extremely delayed the time, now indeed needs to look for assistant. 他这时想及下月自己还要教授学子坚爪部族的语言,定然事情还要多出不少,若是内外全由自己一个人来处理,虽然也是可以,但太过耽误时候了,现在倒的确是需要找一个助役了。 After thinking, he changes the auxiliary teacher clothes, holds an oiled paper umbrella to go out, soon, arrived was away from Scholarship Hall not far General Affairs Hall, this place then arranges the assistant place to teacher. 思定之后,他换上辅教衣冠,就撑着一把油纸伞出了门,不多时,就来到了距离治学堂不远的庶务堂,此间便是给师教安排助役的地方。 After he steps into the hall, is responsible for the matters concerned manager wearing a smile the approach immediately. 他踏入堂中后,负责事宜的从事立刻堆笑迎上来。 Because under the matter of assistant is regarded as the duty, therefore here is different from other academy halls is, the person of director does not hold the post of study the duty in academy, but is responsible for running about and processing the miscellaneous matters, therefore in position natural on low first-grade. 因助役之事被视为下职,所以这里不同于学宫其他堂属,理事之人在学宫中并不担任学职,只是负责跑腿和处理杂事,所以在地位上天然低上一等。 This manager after finding out the Zhang Yu purpose in coming, immediately carries five volumes of register book respectfully, said: „What here takes down is in academy may be for the choice assistant, the net worth is pure, according to the sex, age and manager sorts, assistant may choose slowly.” 这位从事在问明张御来意后,立刻恭敬端上五卷文册,道:“这里记下的是学宫中可供挑选的助役,身家都是清白,按性别、年龄、所长排序,助役可慢慢挑选。” Zhang Yu read, on this indeed is placed in detail, when makes concrete to every people, but also some facial expressions and characters described, when the change, his vision, noticed a person. 张御翻看了一下,这上面的确分列详细,具体到每一人时,还有的貌相和性格描述,就在翻动之时,他目光一顿,留意到了一个人。 He carried carefully to look, that person was a 14-year-old youngster, was one quite the age that was easy to mold, although looked the record has read the book were not many, but was literate, but something actually studied again, the most important thing is, this was bearded men. 他端起来仔细看了看,其人是一个14岁的少年,是一个较为容易塑造的年龄,虽然看记述读过的书不多,只是堪堪认字,可有些东西却是再学的,最重要的是,这是一个须人。 Since Protectorate sets foot on this lands, if said that which native tribe is trustworthy, that was bearded men. 自从都护府踏上这片土地后,若说哪个土著部族值得信赖,那就是须人了。 The reason for this is that is because its entire ethnic group regards Celestial Xia people as children of the Gods that walk the earth, takes being the servant of Celestial Xia person as the honor. 之所以如此,是因为其整个族群都视天夏人为地上神子,以做天夏人的仆人为荣。 In the record of documents according to Publishing Literature Hall, in the Celestial Xia person is hundred years after this land, well-known bearded men has not betrayed master, if not for bearded men does not want manager equally high any duty service of Celestial Xia person position, that was not one's turn over serenese afterward. 根据宣文堂里文档的记载,在天夏人达到这片陆地后的这一百年来,从来没有一个有名有姓的须人背叛过主家,若不是须人不愿意从事任何一样高过天夏人地位的职役,那后来也轮不到安人出头了。 He comes with, hit a check in the above selecting and including frame, said to manager: „On this young fellow.” 他拿笔过来,在上面的选录框中打了一个勾,对从事道:“就这个少年人吧。” The manager probe head looks, reminds: „auxiliary teacher, this is bearded men, according to the bearded men custom, even if his oneself wants, but also needs in the clan the elder agreement is not possible, otherwise still reluctantly, their customs, is academy permits.” 从事探头一看,提醒道:“辅教,这是须人,按照须人的规矩,即便他自己愿意,还需得族中长老同意不可,不然也勉强不来,他们这个规矩,也是学宫所允许的。” Zhang Yu said: „Safe/without matter, you asked that was good, I and other General Affairs Hall news.” 张御道:“无事,你去问一声好了,我等庶务堂的消息。” manager hesitated, bows saying: „That also asked auxiliary teacher to extend a time limit several days.” 从事迟疑了一下,躬身道:“那还请辅教宽限几日。” Zhang Yu stood up, takes the umbrella that attendant has handed over, walked. The side to out of the door, sees had seen Profound Mansion assistant to walk toward oneself, his standing firm footsteps, the opposite party comes to him, bows with hands clasped respectfully, said: „Auxiliary Teacher Zhang, chief is invited.” 张御站了起来,拿过役从递来的雨伞,就走了出去。方至门外,就见一个曾经见过的玄府助役正朝自己走来,他不由站定脚步,对方来至他跟前,恭敬一揖,道:“张辅教,主事有请。” ...... …… ...... ……
