„Why can the blood sampling?” “为什么必须采血？” Asks from the business government official who Eastern Court comes resentfully. 一名来自东廷而来的事务官吏愤懑问道。 „We to prevent the foreign enemy pretend to be the Celestial Xia people, mixes in Azure Sun Superior Continent, you only have the process to pick the blood test to be positive, can enter the inland.” Correctness Examining Division squad soldier in black replied. “我们是为了防止有外敌冒充天夏子民,混入青阳上洲,你们唯有经过采血检正,才能进入内陆。”一名身着黑衣的检正司队卒如此回答。 Although he said some truth, is the attitude is very unfriendly, moreover looked that the vision of people just like regards an appearance that regards the criminal, making in all person hearts feel very uncomfortable. 他虽然说得有些道理,可是态度十分不友好,而且看众人的目光犹如看待一副看待罪人的样子,让所有人心中都感觉很不舒服。 Fan Lan stands in the distant place, is asking to mooring stage subordinate official: „This senior official, does not know that who they are?” 范澜站在远处,对着一名泊台的属吏问道:“这位长吏,不知他们是什么人？” subordinate official looked at all around, small sound said: „That is the Correctness Examining Division person, do not annoy them.” 属吏看了看四周,小声道:“那是检正司的人,别惹他们。” „Is Correctness Examining Division does do?” “检正司是干什么的？” Fan Lan understands 60 years ago various Celestial Xia continents to be the section, but has not heard Correctness Examining Division. 范澜了解六十年前的天夏各洲属部,可从没有听说过检正司。 subordinate soldier said: „ Their background may be big, belongs to the Government Inspecting Envoy subordination directly, 属卒道:“他们来头可大了,是直接归属监御使统属的, Fan Lan thinks, is trying asking: „We are Profound Mansion profound cultivator, can be controlled by this?” 范澜想了想,试着问道:“我们是玄府的玄修,难道也要受此管束么？” That subordinate official expressed that regarding this does not have the ability is, and looked at him, said: „Profound Mansion person, cannot violate the Azure Sun Superior Continent law.” 那属吏表示对此无能力为,并看了看他,道:“玄府的人,也不能违反青阳上洲的律令啊。” Fan Lan cups the hands politely, said: „Many thanks senior official.” 范澜拱手一礼,道:“多谢长吏了。” Returns to above mooring stage, Profound Mansion people and others were waiting here. 回到泊台之上,玄府一众人等正等在此处。 Qi Wu asked: „senior brother, does not know that is what situation?” 齐武问道:“师兄,不知是什么情形？” Fan Lan will inquire the matter that said that 范澜将打听来的事说了一下, Qi Wu said: „That senior brother, how our does next step do? Lets their blood sampling?” 齐武道:“那师兄,我们下一步怎么做？是让他们采血么？” Fan Lan shakes the head. 范澜摇了摇头。 As cultivator, was needless to say the blood, was the body hair nail cannot to go, because did not say other cultivator, different god can plan their body surface through these things directly, therefore he repelled to this action. 身为修炼者,不用说鲜血了,就是身上毛发指甲都不能让人得去,因为不说其他修炼者,就连异神能通过这些东西直接算计到他们本身上面,所以他对这种举动是十分排斥的。 If his oneself also doesn't matter, 50 young disciple, this is he cannot permit. 要是他自己也还罢了,还有五十名年轻弟子,这是他不能允许的。 He said: „First waits, does not worry, although we to here, but the situation is not familiar temporarily, does not need to make the decision anxiously, I had asked a moment ago, junior brother Zhang one step had first left, waits a minute us to find the Peaceful Sun Academy person, the person who lets tries to contact junior brother Zhang, asks that he can help understand here matter, then does to decide.” 他道:“先等一等,不着急,我们虽然到了这里,但情况暂时不熟悉,不必急着做决定,我刚才问过了,张师弟已经先一步离开了,稍候我们可以找泰阳学宫的人,让出去的人设法联络张师弟,问一问他能够帮助了解一下这里的事情,然后再做定夺。” Zhang Yu is walking along the path in village, the path tamps is very level, the two sides plant row of trees, seemingly clean neat. 张御沿着乡间的道路行走着,道路夯筑的很平实,两边栽种一排树木,看起来干净齐整。 At this time a carriage from the rear area went, what driving was a black hair young fellow, red that the face exposed to the sun, the five senses were very but actually straight. He looked at walking Zhang Yu, thinks, then stops the car(riage), from carriage, arrives at the near, to his ritual, said warm-heartedly: „This mister, you come from outside area? But can go to Luliang Town? If not shut out, might as well rides my carriage to walk together.” 这时一辆马车自后方行驶过来,驾车的是一个黑发少年人,脸庞晒的通红,五官倒很端正。他看了看正在行走的张御,想了想,便把车停住,从车驾上下来,走到近前,对他一礼,热心道:“这位先生,你是从外地来的吧？可是要去芦良镇么？如果不嫌弃,不妨坐我的马车一起走吧。” Zhang Yu wears the overalls, wears hat, the clothing style is different from here person, he does not have deliberately to cover up, therefore saw that he is outside area comes is not strange. 张御身着罩衣,戴着遮帽,衣物样式与这里的人是不一样的,他也没有刻意去遮掩,所以一眼看出他是外地来的也不奇怪。 In this young fellow sound of talking also has a voice although slightly, but roughly, the Celestial Xia standard speech or well said, he said: „Am I just about Luliang Town, is young man a person of the town?” 这个少年人尽管语声之中还稍微带一点口音,但大体来说,天夏雅言还是说得不错的,他道:“我正要去芦良镇,少郎是镇上人？” The youngster show the sunlight smile, said: „Yes, I called Gong Yi, lived in the town/subdues.” 少年露出阳光般笑容,道:“是啊,我叫龚毅,就住在镇上。” The Zhang Yu vision carries over the carriage, the compartment is quite crude obsoletely, above is staring at a cross member, obviously after is the near future will burst, patches, what will be quite interesting, the horses that the front will pull will also be creation. 张御目光移向马车,车厢较为简陋老旧,上面盯着一块横板,明显是近期破裂后再重新修补的,较为有意思的是,前方拉扯的马匹也是一个造物。 He when rides cold river insect to go to sea, on onshore has seen similar horses, big and robust, the hoof falls silent, and there is qi mist to pace back and forth, very military might imposing and towering. 他在乘坐寒江虫出海的时候,也在岸上看到过类似的马匹,高大健壮,蹄落无声,且有气雾徘徊,十分威武雄峻。 However this, looked that the appearance were many on the difference, the body fur/superficial knowledge is gloomy, the wool almost fell out or off entirely, with metal looks at of flesh union is also exuding the old color. 不过这一匹,看去卖相就差多了,身上皮毛黯淡无光,毛都几乎掉光了,与血肉结合的金属看着也是泛着旧色。 This horse detected that gaze of Zhang Yu, seems somewhat anxious, the hoof is kicking same place several. 这匹马察觉到了张御的注视,似乎有些不安,蹄子在原地踢动了几下。 Gong Yi is somewhat puzzled, he goes forward to trace the nag only to have the sparse temple wool neck, gathers near its ear saying: „The guest who old Qiu, all right, an outside area comes, a person walks here, is unfamiliar with the people and place, we should help him.” 龚毅有些不解,他上前摸了摸老马只剩下稀疏鬓毛的颈脖,凑到它耳边道:“老丘,没事的,一个外地来的客人,一个人走在这里,人生地不熟,我们应该帮助他。” The nag is quickly tranquil under comforting, and suffered with by him, seems has spirituality specially. 老马很快在安抚下平静下来,并且拿头挨了挨他,显得特别有灵性。 Zhang Yu can feel, among this one man one horse has the deep affection and tacit understanding. 张御能感觉出来,这一人一马之间有着深厚的感情和默契。 Gong Yi walked, some embarrassed say/way: „old Qiu over 50 years old, are Heavenly Secrets Division first batch of metaplasia creation, although is a little old, but it is a good horse.” 龚毅又走了回来,有些不好意思道:“老丘五十多岁了,是天机部第一批化生造物,虽然有点老,但它是一匹好马。” The Zhang Yu nod said: „Is a good horse.” 张御点头道:“是一匹好马。” A metal and flesh creation, can actually have own emotion, but also is so intimate with the oneself master, this is worth acclaiming seriously. 一个金属和血肉的造物,却能有自身的情感,还与自己的主人如此亲近,这当真值得赞叹。 Gong Yi can listen to him to commend heartfeltly, was very happy, said: „mister, please board, I drive very steadily.” 龚毅能听出他由衷的称赞,十分高兴,道:“先生,请上车吧,我驾车很稳的。” Zhang Yu nodded, said: „Then on thanks young man.” 张御点了下头,道:“那就谢过少郎了。” He arrived above the carriage to sit, Gong Yi was also on carriage, he wielded the horsewhip gently, in reality has not fallen to that nag body, the carriage moved slowly. 他来到了马车之上坐好,龚毅也是上了车驾,他把马鞭轻轻一挥,实际上并没有落到那匹老马身上,马车缓缓动了起来。 Just like Gong Yi said that although the carriage was not quick, but was very steady. 正如龚毅所言,马车虽然不快,但是很稳。 Although old Qiu was old, but after all is metaplasia creation, drives the two person looks not strenuous. 老丘虽然老了,可是毕竟是化生造物,拖动两个人看起来一点也不吃力。 Zhang Yu and Gong Yi chatted several, knew that his three generations dwelling place in town/subdues, mother dies young because of the sickness, the father holds an office in military, was a lower layer army government official, in the family/home also a younger brother younger sister, Gong Yi still studies in the school on town/subdues now, but holiday came out to help the person transport freight, with help out with family expenses. 张御与龚毅聊了几句,得知他祖孙三代都在镇上居处,母亲因病早逝,父亲在军府之中任职,是一个下层军吏,家里还有一弟一妹,龚毅现在仍在镇上的学堂里念书,只是休沐日出来帮人运货,用以贴补家用。 Arrived town/subdues in time, the sunset late mountain, the weather is gradually dim, only in the horizon still mark golden glow fluctuated. 到了镇上的时候,已然日落晚山,天色渐渐昏暗,只地平线上仍有一痕金霞浮动。 Zhang Yu swept one at this time, before seeing the Luliang Town front door, is standing erect two giant jades, above is carving the dense and numerous writing, respectively is Celestial Xia greater law, with Azure Sun Continent lesser law. 张御这时扫了一眼,见芦良镇的大门之前矗立着两面巨大的玉璧,上面刻着密密麻麻的文字,分别是天夏大律,和青阳洲小律。 He made Gong Yi stop, from going down the car(riage) carefully looked, 60 years ago compared, some laws indeed had some changes. 他让龚毅停了一下,从走下车来仔细看了看,与六十年前相比,有些律令的确有了一些变化。 The Azure Sun Superior Continent regulation he is first seeing, but this according to derives to come from greater law similarly, is only careful of stipulation, according to the above view, all external does not have the people of nobility, including external one on life, must undergo the Correctness Examining Division examination side to enter a country. 青阳上洲的律法他是第一次看见,不过这同样是根据自大律衍生而来,只是规定的更为细致,按照上面说法,所有外来无爵之民,包括外来一应生灵,都必须经受检正司的检验方是可以入境。 For example Wondrous Pills Lord, ownership in external life. 譬如妙丹君,就归属于外来生灵。 However he is Xia Scholar, Celestial Xia greater law that only need observe. 不过他是夏士,只需遵守的天夏大律就可以。 According to greater law, he being responsible for of inhuman life, so long as carries to oneself, and without leading to what dispute, will then not pursue the responsibility he. 按照大律,他只要对自己携带的非人生灵的负责,并且没有引发什么事端,那么就不会来追责他。 Gong Yi also walked at this time, said proudly: „This is three village elders on our Luliang Town stands, the Celestial Xia law above, the person of each contact can see.” 龚毅这时也走了过来,骄傲道:“这是我们芦良镇上的三位乡老所立,天夏的律令都在上面了,每一个往来的人都能看见。” Two people here spoken language time, a middle-aged person of making an inspection tour appearance were somewhat curious, walked, he looked at Zhang Yu, asked toward Gong Yi: „Gong family young man, who this is?” 两人在这边言语时候,一名巡守模样的中年人有些好奇,走了过来,他看了眼张御,向着龚毅问道:“龚家小郎,这位是谁？” Gong Yi returns said: „Is on the road meets units place mister, I see him to walk, therefore carries him to come to our town/subdues.” 龚毅回道:“是路上遇见一个位先生,我见他一人行走,所以载他来我们镇上。” „Oh?” “哦？” The middle age makes an inspection tour to think, walks to hold the fist in the other hand to Zhang Yu, said: „May I ask the mister given name?” 中年巡守想了想,走上来对着张御一抱拳,道:“敢问先生名讳？” Zhang Yu both hands stretch out, takes hat, lifts a hand ritual conveniently, said: „Zhang Yu, to the Governing Mansion visitor, way your land.” 张御双手伸出,将遮帽拿下,随手抬手一礼,道:“张御,去往治府访客,途径贵地。” The middle-aged people see his facial expression, was startled unconsciously was startled, the color of original being vigilant dissipated immediately, said warm-heartedly: „So that's how it is, welcome mister to come our Luliang Town, I am making an inspection tour on town/subdues, mister, if meets anything to trouble, may come to say to my Yang Ming.” 中年人看见他脸容,不觉怔了一怔,原本的警惕之色顿时消散一空,热心道:“原来如此啊,欢迎先生来我们芦良镇,我是镇上的巡守,先生要是遇上什么麻烦,可来对我杨铭说。” He drew Gong Yi to look after one, „Gong family young man, you may entertain the guest well, did not want cold, lacked anything to tell me, do not make people think our Luliang Town person was mean-spirited.” 他又拉过龚毅关照了一声,“龚家小郎,你可好好招待客人,不要慢待了,缺什么跟我说,不要让人觉得我们芦良镇的人小气。” Gong Yi nodded, before he returns to the Zhang Yu body layer on layer/heavily, a ritual said: „Mr. Zhang, my there house is big, eats also cleanly, is inferior to arrive at my there to go to an evening tonight, I will deliver mister to go to Governing Mansion tomorrow again.” 龚毅重重点了下头,他又回到张御身前,一礼道:“张先生,我那里屋舍大,吃得也干净,不如今晚就到我那里去住一晚吧,我明日再送先生去治府。” Zhang Yu has not declined: „That was exhausted.” 张御没有回绝道:“那就劳烦了。” Gong Yi was happier, said: „mister comes along with me, my family in front.” 龚毅更为高兴,道:“先生随我来,我家就在前面了。” Two people board again, in Grand Dao along the town/subdues goes forward slowly. 两人再是上车,一路缓缓沿着镇中大道前进。 Zhang Yu notices, neat that here each house repairs, each family one courtyard and domestic animal awning, but also is planting the vegetation flowers and plants, on the path also scatters the clear water, in the air is filling light flower fragrance, does not have any domestic animal excrement flavor. 张御注意到,这里每一幢屋舍都修葺的齐整,家家都一个院落和牲畜棚,还栽种着草木花卉,道路上还撒着清水,空气中弥漫有一股淡淡的花香,没有任何牲畜粪便的味道。 But when comes, discovered that here townspeople one after another was the spirit is vigorous, filled with the vigor and vitality, and treated people is very courteous, when saw his bystander, friendly greeting. 而一路过来时,发现这里的镇民一个个都是精神蓬勃向上,充满了活力和生机,且待人都十分有礼,见到他这个外人时,都会友善的打招呼。 The Gong Yi dwelling place is a three layers log cabin, similarly around two institutes, see him to come back, the two child laughed heartily to run from, Gong Yi and Zhang Yu said that this was his younger brother younger sister, called Gong Zhi respectively, Gong Shu. 龚毅的居处是一幢三层木屋,同样前后两院,见到他回来,两个孩童欢笑着从里跑了出来,龚毅和张御介绍了一下,这就是他弟弟妹妹,分别叫龚志,龚淑。 Gong Yi after sends in the horse stable „old Qiu”, Zhang Yu welcome to the family/home, how prepare not to calculate sumptuously, but actually weight/quantity very full late food, but also sent to the town/subdues from fermenting fruit wine. 龚毅在把“老丘”送入马棚后,就把张御请到了家中,就准备了一顿不算如何丰盛但却分量很足的晚食,还送上了镇中自酿的果酒。 After on table, the two young child asked him to say outside matter impatiently. 上了餐桌后,两个小童则是迫不及待的请他说说外面的事。 Zhang Yu will not be fastidious about what food not to speak at this time, his pondered, did not speak what story, said several recorded strange or supernatural events the story, his sound of talking was extremely influential, the plot was also changeable full of twists and turns, hearing the two young child to call out in alarm continues. 张御这时自不会去讲究什么食不语,他思索了一下,不去讲什么见闻,就说了几个志怪故事,他的语声极富感染力,情节又曲折多变,听得两个小儿惊呼不止。 After late food, Gong Yi brings Zhang Yu to arrive at the houses in building, said: „mister, these bedding are wash to trade to expose to the sun, mister also needs anything, said one to me is.” 待晚食过后,龚毅带着张御来到楼上的房舍,道:“先生,这些被褥都是洗换晒过的,先生还需要什么,对我说一声就是。” Zhang Yu said: „Thank your for your hospitality young man.” 张御道:“叨扰少郎了。” Gong Yi is saying with a smile: „mister speaks discreetly, in the family/home was very long has not come the traveler person, mister you looked at Gong Zhi, Gong Shu they were happy.” 龚毅笑着道:“先生言重,家里可是很久没来过客人了,先生你看龚志,龚淑他们多高兴啊。” Also after a while words, Gong Yi asked to be excused, when goes out, he does not forget the door to take gently. 再说了一会儿话后,龚毅就告退了,出去之时,他不忘把门轻轻带上。 Zhang Yu arrived at the window to look at this time, in the small town is selects flying lights, the twinkle star, but raises head to look, great azure banyan that thick branching dominates sky over the extremely remote zenith lightly, even made one have not a real illusory feeling. 张御这时走到窗边看了看,小镇上已是点起了一盏盏飞天灯火,星星点点,而仰头看去,大青榕那粗大的分枝淡淡凌驾在极为遥远的天顶上空,甚至令人产生了一种不真实的虚幻感。 He is standing breathing a while, later then arrives on the seat, saw that Wen Yi to take to his booklet. 他站着呼吸调息了一会儿,随后便来到座椅上,见那本温仪给他的小册拿了出来。 After carefully looked at one, he this yamen also had an understanding of „Correctness Examining Division”. 在仔细看了一遍下来后,他对“检正司”这个衙署也是有了一番了解。 60 years ago, Chaos Tide wells, also arrives at not only some various ancient gods and monsters and lives together, the matter that arrives at from outer layer, what in this is thorniest is parasitic insect, its can parasite above the body of life, finally displaces. 六十年前,浊潮涌至,随之一起到来不仅有各种各样古老的神怪和生灵,还有一些从外层到来的物事,这里面最棘手的是一种寄虫,其能够寄生在生灵的躯体之上,最后取而代之。 There is among the parasitic insects also a comparatively more advanced form, is called „Nightmare Demon”, it can invade during person's consciousness directly, and gradually affects and changes a personality and thought of person, this was called „consciousness parasite”. 寄虫之中还有一种较为高等的形态,叫作“魇魔”,其能直接侵入人的意识之中,并逐渐影响和改变一个人的性情和思想,这被称之为“识意寄生”。 The important place is, this Nightmare Demon receives the attraction of Heart Light and spirituality strength, is only general spirituality creature, because the wisdom is low, is unable to cause anything to destroy, even „Nightmare Demon” could not have had a liking for these lives, therefore stared most is cultivator. 重要的地方在于,这种魇魔十分受心光和灵性力量的吸引,只是一般的灵性生灵因为智慧低下,无法造成什么破坏,甚至很多“魇魔”还看不上这些生灵,所以被盯上的最多的就是修士。 42 years ago, in rimland Yi State Huaiyi Prefecture had a matter, because middle position cultivator was affected by Nightmare Demon, makes a move to slaughter the people, ten several tens of thousands of people were therefore killed, after that as a result of the foreign invasion, receives the influence people several millions indirectly. 四十二年前,边地宜州槐义郡中发生了一件事,因为一名中位修士被魇魔所影响,出手屠杀民众,十数万人因此而丧命,其后由于外敌入侵,间接受到影响的民众达到数百万。 Because the cultivator individual destructive power is too big, moreover limits on the other hand also few, after this matter, Azure Sun Continent Continent Governor and Government Inspecting Envoy were asking for instructions Profound Court, and after can allow, set up Correctness Examining Division, to inspect cultivator specially by parasitic. 由于修士的个人破坏力实在太大,而且限制相对来说也少,经此事后,青洲洲牧、监御使在请示了玄廷,并得以准许之后,设立了检正司,专以查验修士被寄生一事。 Zhang Yu after looking, giving the devil his due, Azure Sun Superior Continent deals with the method is right, but anything after pushing, has advantages and disadvantages both sides, can raise the advantage as far as possible, reduces the disease, that is the good deed, then otherwise possibly moves toward another direction. 张御在看下来后,平心而论,青阳上洲应对方法是对的,不过任何东西在推出来后,都是有利弊两面的,能尽量抬高有利的一面,削减弊病,那就是好事,反之则可能走向另一个方向。 From the Su Qian attitude, clearly has the opinion to Correctness Examining Division. 从苏芊的态度来看,对检正司显然是有意见的。 He looked at that booklet, according to this above view, Nightmare Demon is almost invisible does not have the shadow, is very difficult to distinguish, often parasited person oneself does not know, but the booklet gave a method of self- examination in the rear. 他又看了看那本小册,按这上面的说法,魇魔几乎是无形无影,很难分辨,往往被寄生的人自己都不知道,不过小册在最后面给出了一个自我检验的方法。 His pondered, then the decision tries to try according to this method. 他思索了一下,便决定按此方法试上一试。 ...... …… ...... ……
