Outside Dawn Mountain Town, in the striking sound of startled sound drum, rows of militiamen was holds the blunderbuss urged by team leader with the spear/gun on the top, several artilleries also raise the artillery clothes, aimed at outside the town/subdues. 晓山镇外,在惊声鼓的敲打声中,一列列民兵在队长的催促下都是持铳拿枪上了城头,几门火炮也是掀去了炮衣,对准了镇外。 In their lines of sight, presented one row of long teams, the number had more than thousand people probably. 在他们的视线里,出现了一列长长的队伍,数目大概有千余人。 Where do these people come?” “这些人哪里来的?” The people on town/subdues are surprised uncertain. 镇上的人都是惊疑不定。 The offensive specially strong barbarian tribe that in Town periphery exists had been scattered by them, the remaining some are quite temperate, is attaches to the town to survive, the economy and livelihood were grasped by the town, and was still continuously being fused, now neighbor in 200 li (0.5 km) does not have over 200 people barbarian tribes. 驻屯镇周围存在的攻击性特别强的蛮人部落早就被他们打散了,剩下一些较为温和的,也都是依附镇子而生存,经济民生都被镇子所掌握,且还在被不断融合进来,现在附近两百里内已经不存在两百人以上的蛮人部落了。 After these people approach, the talent on town/subdues notices, these people goes to some similar barbarian at first sight, but distinguishes carefully, has the obvious difference. 等这些人走近后,镇上的人才注意到,此辈乍一看去有些类似蛮人,但仔细分辨,却又有着明显的不同。 barbarian mostly shades the body by the animal skin leaf, the civilization degree is not high, but these person certainly most parts clone the cotton material clothing, there is a few even to wear the magnificent clothing, is throwing over loading clothing hung at full length of blue yellow interaction, wears the head crown of color feather and gold thread knitting. 蛮人大多以兽皮树叶蔽体,文明程度不高,而这些人绝大部分身着布料衣物,有少数甚至穿着华丽的衣物,披着蓝黄相间的挂装,戴着彩羽和金丝编织的头冠。 Can look at its, not only has the explicit social class division, but also has certain organization and discipline, before this is not them, any uncivilized nationalities that contacts may compare. 看得出来其等不但有着明确的阶级划分,还拥有一定的组织和纪律,这绝非他们之前接触到的任何蛮族可比。 Where do these people come? Simply like that from underground drills. 这些人到底从哪里来的?简直就像从地下钻出来的一样。 Has the militiaman chieftain to inquire whether the mayor must initiate an attack, was denied. The first important matter on town/subdues preserves the safety of townspeople, so long as these people of unknown origin have not stayed in this, destroys the farmland and attacks the Dawn Mountain Town action, then the town will not attack on own initiative. 有民兵头目询问镇长是否要主动出击,却被否定了。镇上的第一要务是保存镇民的生命安全,只要这些来历不明的人没有在此停留,破坏农田及进攻晓山镇的举动,那么镇子是不会主动进攻的。 Chen Zheng leads several students, specifically is responsible for wait/etc one by one recording the appearances, attires, decoration, the exchange way these people, the preparation gives the messenger to deliver to these to the capital later. 陈正则是带着几个学生,专门负责将这些人的样貌、衣着、装饰、交流方式等等都一一记录下来,准备随后将这些交给信使呈送给首府。 On the wilderness presents such a group of people of unknown origin, cannot neglect absolutely. 荒原上出现这么一群来历不明的人,是绝对不能忽视的。 Quick he discovered that these people have not come in the direction of town, but entered in that stretch of ruins, later was quick covers the form by these residual tall wall and pillars. 很快他发现这些人并没有往镇子的方向过来,而是进入到了那片废墟之中,随后很快就被那些残留的高墙和柱子遮挡住了身影。 In the ruins, several barbarian drilled from that python cavern, is grasping gold and silver stick to one, the old man of priest appearance spoke several words in reverential awe. 废墟之内,几个蛮人从那个巨蟒洞窟内钻了出来,对着一个手持金银杖,祭祀模样的老者诚惶诚恐的说了几句话。 On the old man face has the scowl, with hand one finger/refers, some people whips these barbarian immediately. 老者脸上出现怒容,用手一指,立刻有人上来鞭打这些蛮人 He steps to arrive in the open area, puts out a candle to light, in the mouth muttered is talking over anything, the youth, above had the white smoke to brave, formed long twig of wicker appearance, lifted slightly, pointed out in some direction. 他移步来到空地上,拿出一根蜡烛点燃,嘴中喃喃念叨着什么,少时,上面有白烟冒起,形成了一个柳条模样的长枝,微微抬起,向着某一个方向指出。 He greeted one, immediately ten bodies are strong, put on skin armor, leading the man of short sword lance to stand. After he said a big crosstalk, these people lower the head to him, rises the thing of one after another meng cat, as these lifeform exude short cries, spreads rapidly in southeast, quick vanished from the line of sight. 他招呼了一声,立刻有十来个身躯强壮,穿着皮甲,带着短刀长矛的男子站了出来。在他上去说了一大串话后,这些人对他一低头,就翻上一头头似獴似猫的东西,随着这些生物发出一声声短促的叫声,就朝着东南方向飞速驰去,很快就从视线里消失了。 In the crowd has a man who brings the white mask walks, said in the Celestial Xia language: Such few people? Can find?” 人群中有一个带着白色面具的男子走出来,用天夏语道:“这么少的人?能找到么?” That old man has turned head, replied equally self-confidently in the Celestial Xia language: „In my tribe the most outstanding soldier, he has the god bloodline, has with your Celestial Xia Gods same strength.” 那个老者回过头,也一样用天夏语自信回答道:“厄兰是我的部族里最出色的战士,他有神明的血统,拥有和你们天夏神明一样的力量。” Men with pondering the sound said: Hope, your time opponents are not common.” 男子用玩味的声音说道:“希望吧,你们这次的对手可不一般啊。” Before this moment Ji River arched bridge, Cai Weng heard the front hand cannon sound, lifts hand indicated, the group slowed down horse Su immediately, he curbed a horse to lean the body to proceed to look, transferred was then saying to Wen Guo: „Front master nephew Wen, you go to ask, who they are.” 此刻济河的拱桥之前,蔡蕹听到了前方火铳声,抬手示意了一下,一行人立时减缓了马速,他勒马倾身往前看了看,转回头对着闻过道:“闻师侄,你去前面问一下,他们是什么人。” A Wen Guo nod, unties body cloak, races a horse to go, seeing him is only a person comes, body also puts on daoist robe, defends the person of bridge not to have any extreme action again. 闻过一点头,将身上大氅解开,就驰马而去,见他只是一个人过来,身上还穿着道袍,守桥的人没再有什么过激的举动。 Wen Guo negotiated very long a while under the bridge with these people, this hurries back, said: uncle master Cai, I have asked that these people are the Guanshan Town garrisons, said that discovered couple days ago has the different god believer to try to destroy the bridge, therefore sends for here guarding.” 闻过在桥下与那些人交涉了很长一会儿,这才赶了回来,道:“蔡师叔,我问过了,那些人都是观山镇的戍兵,说是前几天发现有异神教徒试图毁坏桥梁,所以派人在这里值守。” Wen De asked: „Can we pass?” 闻德问道:“我们可以过去了么?” Wen Guo shakes the head saying: They said that team leader's order before solving the different god believer anybody cannot pass, we are no exception.” 闻过摇头道:“他们说队长的命令是在解决异神教徒前任何人不许通过,我们也不例外。” Wen De strange say/way: We have Profound Mansion book isn't pass good?” 闻德奇道:“我们有玄府的过书路贴也不行么?” Helpless Wen Guo said: Issue here, in these people will not have recognized Profound Mansion pass, for fear that we forge, therefore is not willing to put us to pass in any event, is not willing to deliver a letter to inform in the town/subdues.” 闻过无奈道:“问题就在此处,这些人里面没有会辨识玄府路贴的,生怕我们是伪造的,所以无论如何不肯放我们过去,也不肯送信去告知镇里。” Wen De for a while is also speechless. 闻德一时也是无言。 Cai Weng hesitates, said: „ We are impossible to delay here, moreover these different god believers likely are that gang that we must pursue and exterminate, that cannot wait, detours. „ 蔡蕹沉吟一下,道:“我们不可能在这里耽搁,况且这些异神教徒很可能就是我们要追剿的那一伙人,那就更不能等了,绕路吧。“ Must say that their group, can rush with the strength, even if this team of militiamen have hand cannon unable to block them, but these actions will cause certain casualties unavoidably. But they are not the robbers, the conduct must comply with the well-mannered law, will not do the matter that kills the under the Protectorate's jurisdiction soldiers, and this might provode very big confusion. 要说他们这一行人,凭着实力怎么也是能闯过去的,就算这一队民兵有火铳也拦不住他们,不过这些举动难免会造成一定的伤亡。可他们又不是强盗,行事都是要遵从规矩法令的,更不会去做杀伤都护府治下兵卒的事,且这样很可能会引发很大的混乱。 They in can investigate that actually afterward these people delay the responsibility for an offense of Profound Mansion conduct, but their where can with several militiaman who is loyal to the duty haggles over, best way that therefore avoids conflicting at present from elsewhere in the past. 倒是他们在事后可以追究这些人耽误玄府行事的罪责,可他们哪里会和几个忠于职守的民兵计较,所以眼下避免冲突的最好办法就是从别处过去了。 Wen De said: „Did uncle master Cai, have other place to cross this river?” 闻德道:“蔡师叔,有别的地方可以渡过此河么?” The horse under Cai Weng body swayed from side to side suddenly two, he patted the pats the horse neck, comforted, said: „When my previous time comes, this Ji River water flow many that the present is more turbulent. But now was actually shallow many, water flow is not anxious, should be the reason that this two moon/month has not rained, in middle and lower reaches narrow places, when had the place to pass. Really inadequate, temporarily keeps here the horses and assistant, our four people of logging are the boats, in advance crosses the river, when the view early morning the town/subdues, then aided again.” 蔡邕身下的马突然扭动了两下,他拍了拍马脖,安抚了一下,道:“我上次来时,这济河水势比现在汹涌的多。而现在却是浅了不少,水势也没那么急了,应该是这两个月没有下雨的缘故,在中下游的狭窄处当有地方可以过去。实在不成,就暂把马匹和助役留在这里,我们四人伐木为舟,先行渡河,待到了观晨镇,回头再来接应好了。” Wen family brothers thinks rational. 闻氏兄弟都觉有理。 Zhang Yu also from unobjectionable. 张御也自无异议。 Therefore the group then spread toward the Ji River downstream. this time seems like the luck is not good, gradually falls into dimly to the weather, cannot find the appropriate fording place. 于是一行人转而往济河下游驰去。只是这一回似乎运气不好,一直到天色逐渐陷入昏暗中,也并没有能找到合适渡河地点。 Cai Weng stopped at this time, he in the horse river bank, is looking at the torrential running water, said: Today is late, is inferior to seek tomorrow again, if was unable to find appropriate place tomorrow morning, our four people try first to pass.” 蔡蕹这时停下,他驻马河畔,望着滔滔流水,道:“今天已是晚了,不如明日再寻吧,若是明早还不能找到合适的所在,我们四人就设法先过去。” Zhang Yu actually felt, the weather was dim or not and has no influence on their four people, Cai Weng has been stressing a moment ago races against time, that can make assistant first rest greatly, they continued to seek. 张御其实觉得,天色昏暗与否对他们四人并无什么影响,蔡蕹刚才一直在强调抢时间,那大可以让助役先休息,他们继续找寻。 However this chief after all is Cai Weng, since that person changed the idea, does not encounter the extremely special situation, he will not speak the opposition. 不过这次主事的毕竟是蔡蕹,既然其人改了主意,不是遇到极为特别的情况,他也不会出言反对。 The group transferred the revolutions in the , seeks a topography high place, assistant dismounts in abundance, unloaded from pack horse general tent and other thing, and fells the trees, supported several big accounts quickly. 一行人在附近转了转,寻到一处地势较高的地方,助役纷纷下马,从驮马上将帐篷等物卸了下来,并砍伐树木,很快支起了数个大帐。 Four single tents above four corner/horn, two big tent/account at middle position. 四个单人帐篷处在四角之上,两个大帐处在中间位置。 Afterward its dug out a gulley with the shovel outside the station, outside also suspended a simple antler, the crevice place drew one is the rope of bell is coming out, is completely a army squad histrionics. 随后其等又用铲子在驻地之外挖出了一道深沟,外面还摆了一圈简易的鹿角,空隙地方更是拉了一圈系着铃铛的绳索出来,完全是一副军伍的作派。 Because the nearby possibly has the different god believer, therefore they cannot light a fire to roast at this moment boil food, is good has pill that Protectorate provides side trip everyone, the fresh water that carries along is also enough, will not therefore come under many influences. 因为附近可能存在异神教徒,所以他们此刻也不能生火烤煮食物,好在此行每个人身边都有都护府提供的丹丸,随身携带的淡水也是足够,并不会因此受到多少影响。 Zhang Yu and Cai Weng and the others said after a while words, a person walked, he wears the cape, stands looks into sublime steep mountain peak of distant that in the high place still obviously in the sinking evening. 张御蔡蕹等人说了一会儿话后,一人走了出来,他身披斗篷,站在高处眺望远方那一座在沉暮中犹显壮美峻拔的山峰。 For these days hurried along, was away from this Goddess Peak to be getting more and more near actually. 这几天赶路,倒是距离这座神女峰越来越近了。 That was known as when lightens can let the beacon tower that the Celestial Xia native place sees there, if will have the free time in the future, but actually looks at reverently one or two. 那号称点亮时能让天夏本土看到的烽火台就在那里,若是日后有空闲,倒是可去瞻仰一二 Calmly looked at a while, he returns the station, arrived in the oneself single tent, with hitting the water washed simply, then takes next Origin Essence Pill, sits cross-legged to sit down immediately. 静静看了一会儿,他才转回驻地,来到了自己单人帐篷之内,用打来的水简单洗漱了一下,而后服下一枚元元丹,便就盘膝坐下。 After sitting in meditation had Xia hour, his exits meditation, this moment surroundings had gotten down completely peacefully, helping under the heart call, as luminous encircles in around the body raises, that Chaotic Chapter of the Grand Dao also appears. 在打坐了有一个夏时后,他从定中出来,此刻周围已是完全安静下了来,便于心下一唤,随着一阵光亮在身周围升起,那大道浑章随之浮现出来。 Since that day after the suggestion obtained Tao Dingfu, he has been strengthening the alert, the daytime matter makes him feel that the danger is been close, perhaps these different god believers in, then under enhancement the oneself strength is very necessary. 自那日得到桃定符的暗示后,他一直在加强着戒备,白天的事让他感觉危险正在接近中,说不定那些异神教徒就在附近,那么加强下自己的实力是十分有必要的。 spirit essence that now he has can only read two seal, but Profound Chapter there, three seal of new acquisition must according to Profound Mansion chapter order read, this be possible to discover Heart Light Seal together, therefore is unusable temporarily, like this he can only try to find the solution toward Chaotic Chapter on. 现在他所具备的神元只能观读两枚章印,而玄章那里,新收获的三枚章印需按照玄府章法一同观读,这才有可能找出心光之印,所以暂时不能用,这样他只能往浑章上想办法。 Above Chaotic Chapter is only left over read, actually promotion this seal is most actual. Because sword and controlling seals as one, "controlling seal" at present is read, but sword seal is actually continuously the vacancy there, he had endured for a long time. 浑章之上只剩下“剑印”未曾观读,其实提升这一枚章印是最为实际的。因为“剑”、“驭”二印本就为一体,“驭印”目前已是观读过了,而剑印却是一直空缺在那里,他已经忍了好久了。 If also same read, then this seal relatively was complete. 若是也将之一样观读了,那么此印就相对圆满了。 Under the heart had the decision, he looks immediately to "sword seal", as spirit essence gradually reduces, on that seal the ray shines simultaneously, and enters his whole person photo. 心下有了决定,他当即看向“剑印”,随着神元逐渐减少,那章印上光芒同时亮起,并将他整个人照入进去。 In an instant, he felt that oneself body had some subtle change, this not truly change in fact, but is the body and mind to sword compatible and grasped to be in a higher level. 刹那间,他就感觉自己身上发生了某种微妙的变化,这并非真正实质上的变动,而是身心对剑器的亲和和掌握达到了一种更高的层次之中。 He still has a mutual lack of understanding with the swords, but at this moment, was actually as if cancelled completely, between them is without half a point to hinder. 原本他与剑之间还存在着一层隔膜,可这一刻,却似乎被完全抹去了,彼此之间在没有半分阻碍。 The intention moves, as bright as snow radiance illuminates the cape together, he has extracted Xia Sword, put horizontally on the knee. 心意一动,随着一道雪亮光华照亮斗篷,他已是将夏剑抽出,横搁在了膝上。 He can feel, this time uses the sword smoothly incomparable, is the genuine heart to the sword, intent moves the sword to move, but does not depend on the energy of Xia Sword. 他能感觉,这一次出剑可谓顺畅无比,是真真正正的心到剑到,意动剑动,而并非倚仗了夏剑之能。 At this moment his even one type goes out to train the impulsion of sword style, but he is only intention one revolution, easily presses down this mood, restored previously in a tranquility of ripples. 此刻他甚至有一种出外演练剑式的冲动,不过他只是心意一转,就轻易将这情绪按下,重新恢复到了此前不起一丝涟漪的平静之中。 He just wants to receive Chaotic Chapter, but at this time, was actually vision, after he discovered oneself read sword seal, controlling sword two seal not, therefore superposed again, but above this, derived new seal unexpectedly! 他正想将浑章收起,可这个时候,却是目光一顿,他发现自己观读剑印后,剑驭两印并没有因此再度重合,而是在此之上,居然又衍生出一个新的章印来! This is......” “这是……” His pupil light/only exuded, was actually invests without hesitation toward in spirit essence, as that seal also shone, his body was covered by a ray again. 他眸光泛动了一下,却是毫不犹豫就将神元往里投入进去,随着那章印也是亮了起来,他身躯再度被一阵光芒所笼罩了进去。 After the ray restrains, he lifts Xia Sword, above staring, when the preparation has an action, in heart lake transmits one to surge suddenly. 光芒收敛下去后,他抬起夏剑,凝视其上,待准备有所举动时,心湖之中忽然传来一丝波荡。 Un? 嗯? He turns the head slightly, is actually detected that Cai Weng comes out from own tent, and without alarming anybody left the station. 他微微侧首,却是察觉到蔡蕹从自身的帐篷中出来,并且在没有惊动任何人的情况下离开了驻地。 Where senior brother Cai this goes to?” 蔡师兄这是去哪里?” He thinks, with the meaning of stealing a glance, Cai Weng does not want to come, when has the idea of oneself, moreover before that person , although has not shown anything to be able, many that but cultivation base is without doubt higher than him, should not has anything. 他想了一想,并没有跟上去窥看的意思,蔡蕹想来当有自己的想法,况且其人之前虽然没展现出什么能为,可修为无疑比他高的多,应该不会有什么事。 But Cai Weng this goes, has not actually come back. 可是蔡蕹这一去,却是迟迟没有回来。 When almost to after midnight, this opened the eye in him of sitting in meditation suddenly. 而在差不多到了下半夜的时候,本在入定的他忽然睁开了眼睛。 Outside has many footsteps sounds, and is coming toward their here unceasingly! 外面有不少脚步声响起,并在朝着他们这里不断过来! ...... …… ...... ……
