Border Town welcomed the rainy day, in the sky Dark Cloud is densely covered, the rainwater drops from the clouds, hits on the window and glass, makes the sound. 边陲镇迎来了久违的雨天,天空中乌云密布,雨水哗哗地从天而降,打在窗台和玻璃上,发出噼里啪啦的声响。 Properly speaking, spring should be the season of rain, is warm and moist. But in Border Town, since Months of Demons had finished, the number of times of raining is then few. The good farmland near the river water, waters very conveniently. Now, heavy rain scattered the sadness in air, Nightingale turned on the window, indoor let fill with the soil fragrant aura to emerge. 按理说,春天应该是个多雨的季节,温暖而潮湿。但在边陲镇,自从邪魔之月结束后,下雨的次数便屈指可数。还好农田就在河水边,浇灌起来十分方便。如今,一场大雨驱散了空气中的沉闷,夜莺打开窗子,让充满泥土芬芳的气息涌入室内。 Looks from afar, can see that the cropland of Scarlet Water River opposite shore has extracted the sprout, the green and glossy young wheat are continuous, has extended to the field of vision end. Under scrubbing of rainwater, these crops appear extremely bright, has formed the striking contrast with the dusky river water. 远远望去,可以看到赤水河对岸的庄稼地已经抽出新芽,绿油油的麦苗连绵不绝,一直向视野尽头延伸。在雨水的洗刷下,这些作物显得极为鲜艳,与灰蒙蒙的河水形成了鲜明对比。 Roland stretched oneself, throws into the pen container the quill pen in hand. 罗兰伸了个懒腰,将手中的鹅毛笔扔入笔筒。 „Drew?” Nightingale asked. “画好了？”夜莺问。 „Yeah, brand-new weapon, can make the flintlock rate of fire enhance several times,” Roland folds several design drawings in the same place piles the draw, „I name as revolving rifle it. To have a look?” “嗯,全新的武器,可以让火枪射速提高好几倍,”罗兰将十几张设计图叠在一起摞平,“我把它命名为转轮步枪。想看看吗？” „Did not look,” she curls the lip, „cannot understand in any case.” “不看,”她撇撇嘴,“反正也看不懂。” „This is only ground form, if reduces the barrel, is the revolver, can carry along. However wish makes it apply, but also needs to solve another key technologies. When the time comes gives you to send, did not need to fear Church's Judgement Army.” “这只是基本型,如果缩短枪管,则是转轮手枪,可以随身携带。不过想要让它派上用场,还需要解决另一项关键技术。到时候给你们一人发一把,就再也不用惧怕教会的审判军了。” „You said, it can let an ordinary female, strikes down a fully-armed guy?” “你是说,它能让一位普通女子,击倒一名全副武装的大汉？” „It is not one, is several.” Roland happily said with a smile, „luck good words, five guys were not the issues.” “不是一名,是好几名。”罗兰得意地笑道,“运气好的话,五个大汉也不是问题。” Nightingale shows the facial expression that does not believe that just wants to say anything, outside the office has resounded the knock suddenly. 夜莺露出不信的神情,刚想说些什么,办公室外忽然响起了敲门声。 „Your highness, the Barov apprentice came back from Kingdom Capital, he has also brought the saltpeter merchant, now is waiting for your interview outside the castle.” “殿下,巴罗夫的学徒从王都回来了,他还带来了硝石商人,现在正在城堡外等候您的接见。” Assistant Minister apprentice? Roland thinks, records this matter. When attacks Longsong Stronghold, the small town gunpowder storage quantity is not much left, he successively sends out personal guard to go to Fallen Dragon Ridge and Scarlet Water City, hopes that can obtain the new saltpeter origin. But that the Barov apprentice most late sends out, the destination is Kingdom Capital. After all there anything commodity has, in addition in the summer , the saltpeter output definitely considerably will increase. 大臣助理的学徒？罗兰想了想,才记起来这回事。攻打长歌要塞时,小镇火药存量所剩无几,他先后派出亲卫前往坠龙岭和赤水城,希望能获得新的硝石来源。而巴罗夫的学徒则是最晚派出的一位,目的地是王都。毕竟那里什么商品都有,加上夏季将至,硝石的产量肯定会大大增加。 Has not expected, person first that most late sends has brought back to the good news on the contrary. 没料到,最晚派出去的人反倒第一个带回了好消息。 „Brings their meeting living room, I immediately.” Roland watched a weather, „lets in the kitchen again a sweet snack.” “带他们到会客厅,我马上就到。”罗兰看了眼天色,“再让厨房上一份甜点。” When turned head again, Nightingale has disappeared. 再回过头来时,夜莺已不见踪影。 However he knows, she in own side. 不过他知道,她就在自己身边。 ...... …… When Roland walks into the reception room, the saltpeter merchant also just ushered in the hall by the guard. she takes off the wet cape and straw hat, bows salutes to the prince, „ I Margery Farman from Kingdom Capital, expressed best wishes to you, Esteemed Your Highness Wimbledon. 当罗兰走入会客厅时,硝石商人也刚好被侍卫领进厅内。她脱下身上湿漉漉的斗篷和草帽,躬身向王子行礼,“我是来自王都的玛格丽.法曼,向您致意,尊敬的温布顿殿下。 Sees the person is famous female, Roland is startled unexpectedly slightly. The peddler environment of this age was inferior that the later generation is like that safe, when rushes about, not only possible bitter experience cateran and refugee, the cities have the local bully and underground influence, therefore the female merchant is rarely seen. 看到来人竟是名女子,罗兰微微一怔。这个年代的行商环境远不如后世那般安全,东奔西跑时不仅可能遭遇山贼和流民,城镇还有地头蛇和地下势力,所以女性商人并不多见。 She is the same with Lightning, has bright golden hair, but the hair is denser is longer. Age probably 30 years old, perhaps because of the reason of average person, her corner of the eye and forehead presented the wrinkle. The skin color is dark, at first sight comes up somewhat roughly. However from the face is not the Mojin person, the reversed image is the people of fjord. 她和闪电一样,有着一头灿烂的金发,只是头发更密更长。年纪大概30来岁,或许是因为普通人的缘故,她的眼角和额头都出现了皱纹。皮肤颜色较深,乍看上去有些粗糙。不过从面孔来看并非是莫金人,倒像是峡湾之民。 „Sits,” movement that prince has made invitation, afterward sits down in the seat of honor, „you are not the Greycastle person, right?” “坐吧,”王子做了个请的动作,随后在主位坐下,“你不是灰堡人,对吧？” „Why said?” Margery said with a smile. “为何这么说？”玛格丽微笑道。 „Your hair color, the mainland kingdom is very rare. As far as I know, the people in channel opposite shore mostly have attractive golden hair, I also know one from the sea...... explorer.” “你的头发颜色,大陆王国都十分罕见。据我所知,海峡对岸的人民大多拥有一头漂亮的金发,我也认识一位来自海那边的……探险家。” „You are really experienced, my hometown indeed in fjord, but I came to have more than ten years from that side, now lives in Kingdom Capital, calculated half Greycastle person.” Her paused, „you just left shortly after Kingdom Capital, perhaps where we once had met. Can live with your highness in the same place city, I am very honored.” “您真是见多识广,我的家乡的确在峡湾,不过我从那边过来已有十多年了,如今居住在王都,也算半个灰堡人。”她顿了顿,“您刚离开王都不久,说不定我们曾在哪里相遇过。能和殿下住在同一座城市,我感到十分荣幸。” Really, a successful merchant very much will speak, clear(ly) knows that the opposite party is flattering and tries to get close, Roland still thought at heart very enjoys. At this moment, he felt that right made an effort to pinch...... Does not need to determine truth at this time, Comrade Nightingale who fulfills responsibility warm-heartedly. 果然,一名成功的商人都很会说话,明知道对方是在拍马屁、套近乎,罗兰心里仍觉得十分受用。就在这时,他感到右边被用力掐了一下……呃,这种时候不需要判定真伪啊,热心尽责的夜莺同志。 „Mentioned explorer, this in fjord, but extraordinary given name.” Margery also then said, „perhaps you did not understand, the fjord people can survive the land of housing to be very scarce, there sea water sometimes rises sometimes falls, some islands will be swallowed into the sea when the rising tide, but another all day long will be erupting the roaring flame and thick smoke, the stone will melt under the high temperature, gathers in the dark-red rivers. Only then these open the new route, or discovered that the person in new appropriate housing islands, is eligible for this name. The average people will not say explorer.” “不过提到探险家,这在峡湾可是了不得的名号。”玛格丽又接着说道,“您或许不了解,峡湾人民可以生存居住的土地十分稀少,那里海水时涨时落,一些岛屿在涨潮时会被吞入大海,而另一些则终日喷发着烈焰和浓烟,石头在高温下都会融化,汇聚成暗红色的河流。只有那些开辟新航道、或是发现新的合适居住岛屿的人,才有资格获得这个称谓。一般人是不会自称探险家的。” „Haha, she not only said oneself are explorer, but also is called greatest explorer her father,” Roland shook the head with a smile, „child, likes imagining oneself becomes the extraordinary great person.” “哈哈,她不但称自己为探险家,还把她父亲称为最伟大的探险家,”罗兰笑着摇了摇头,“小孩子嘛,就喜欢把自己想象成了不起的大人物。” „In fjord, even if child, will not say this given name easily,” the Margery brow wrinkled, „does she have to mention her father's name?” “在峡湾,即使是孩子,也不会轻易说出这个名号,”玛格丽眉头皱了起来,“她有提到她父亲的名字吗？” Sees the facial expression of opposite party, Roland also realized that is not right, is it possible that a explorer word is the sea people's spiritual belief, can't call carelessly? „Her father's name is Thunder.” 看到对方的神情,罗兰也意识到不对了,莫非探险家一词是海民的精神信仰,不能胡乱叫的？“她父亲的名字是雷霆。” Has not thought that this name just said that the eye of opposite party stares immediately perfectly round, „do you know Sir Thunder?” 没想到这个名字刚说出口,对方的眼睛立刻瞪得浑圆,“您认识雷霆大人？” „No, what I know is his daughter, what's wrong, have you heard this name?” “不,我认识的是他女儿,怎么,你听说过这个名字？” „Who fjord people have not listened to this name! Sir Thunder had discovered the twin peaks island and Sea Dragon Bay, almost expanded half the domain that everybody lived. He has also drawn up the east coast and Endless Cape detailed map, now goes to the route in mainland, 80% are he opens. Each child's fact to Sir Thunder is familiar, he is one of the fjord greatest explorer!” “峡湾民谁没听过这个名字！雷霆大人发现了双峰岛和海龙湾,将大家居住的地盘几乎扩大了一半。他还绘制了东海岸和无尽海角的详细地图,如今前往大陆的航线中,有八成是他开辟出来的。每个孩子对雷霆大人的事迹都耳熟能详,他是峡湾最伟大的探险家之一！” „But I heard that Thunder seems buried in the seabed because of storm......” “可是我听说雷霆似乎因为一场暴风而葬身海底……” „No, Your highness, true explorer will not fall from the sky because of the storm. He once had met innumerable dangerous, finally successfully returns alive. This moment Sir Thunder somewhere is certainly convening the new exploring party, before him these matters that does.” Margery body leans forward, „does your highness, you know his daughter present whereabouts slightly?” “不,殿下,一名真正的探险家不会因为暴风而陨落。他曾遇上过无数次危险,最终都成功生还。此刻雷霆大人一定正在某处召集新的探险队,就像他之前所做的那些事一样。”玛格丽身子微微前倾,“殿下,您知道他女儿现在的下落吗？” Roland also slightly feels the accident/surprise, he has not thought that the Lightning father so is unexpectedly famous, these sound to look like the fantasy story exploration story, real? „She lives in my castle. After encountering the perils of the sea, she wanders about destitute to the west Border Town, I gave shelter to her by chance.” 罗兰也略感意外,他没想到闪电的老爹竟然如此有名,那些听起来像天方夜谭的探险故事,难道也都是真的？“她就住在我的城堡里。遭遇海难后,她一路向西流落到边陲镇,我恰巧收留了她。” „In your castle?” The facial expression that she anticipates reveals in speech and appearance, „energy...... Let me see his daughter?” “在您的城堡里？”她期待的神情溢于言表,“能……让我见见他的女儿吗？” „, Now possibly is not good,” this moment Lightning should the cruise area Hidden Forest, seek for the ruins place that " Treasure Map " on marks, „she is practicing at present...... Jungle exploration skill, if you planned that stays overnight a evening in this place, should be able to wait till her to come back.” “唔,现在可能不行,”此刻闪电应该在迷藏森林一带巡航,寻找「藏宝图」上标明的遗迹地点,“她目前正在练习……丛林探险技巧,如果你打算在此地留宿一晚,应该能等到她回来。” „My thank your for your hospitality,” Margery without hesitation nodded to say. “那我就叨扰了,”玛格丽毫不犹豫地点头道。 „Then can we discuss the proper business?” “接下来我们可以讨论正事了吧？” „Naturally, Your highness,” she said with a smile, „asked you to open the mouth freely.” “当然,殿下,”她笑道,“请您尽管开口。”
