The second string was selected by one finger/refers, ties tight the string silk to jump, slides a slight blood trough in her fair palm, drops on the focused tail guqin, as the blood drop crashes, the stopping suddenly heavy rain also pounds down loudly. 第二根琴弦被一指挑断,紧绷弦丝跳起,在她白皙手心滑出一条细微血槽,滴在焦尾古琴上,随着血滴坠落,骤停大雨也轰然砸下。 Searches the arm to extend to she ten steps Xu Fengnian, inserts trembling of wall to call Spring Thunder to come out of the sheath. Spring Thunder has sheath one inch, Xu Fengnian loses tows the internal energy of short sword, instead by the eye blind musician middle finger slightly tune, the Spring Thunder recoiling scabbard, was infiltrated the wall thoroughly. The Xu Fengnian whole person who the sea of qi blasts out covers in the scarlet mist, after falling to the ground, squeezes in two Zen gold/metal pill who that Monk Dragontree bestows toward the mouth on, a tip of the toe point, is staggering the leans forward, the double sleeve wields, nine flying sword gush out, female musician cold snort/hum, the left hand thumb index finger hooks on to a string, raises upward, nine flying sword were cobra-twisted by ten several silver thread windings instantaneously respectively, the electric light flint, makes noise. Her right hand unusual picks out in the left hand fingering, the Xu Fengnian abdomen seems like by the heavy item is hit, hits the gate like the stump, entire will have the body to fly in the future, will drop on the green slat. 离她不过十步的徐凤年探臂一伸,插入墙壁的颤鸣春雷就要出鞘。只是春雷才出鞘一寸,徐凤年就失去牵引短刀的气机,反而被目盲琴师中指微曲,春雷弹回刀鞘,彻底透入墙壁。气海炸开的徐凤年整个人笼罩在猩红雾气中,落地后,往嘴上塞入那颗龙树僧人赠送的两禅金丹,脚尖一点,踉跄着前倾,双袖挥动,九柄飞剑一齐涌出,女琴师冷哼一声,左手拇指食指钩住一根琴弦,往上一提,九把飞剑瞬间各自被十数条银丝缠绕绞扭,电光火石,嗤嗤作响。她右手反常以左手指法剔出,徐凤年腹部像是被重物击中,如同树桩撞门,整具身躯往后飞去,跌落在青石板上。 In this critical moment at a crucial moment, the leopard cat that a black-clothed person such as the curtain of night looks for food turns- wall falls, hand held plain blade, arrives at the Xu Fengnian body bank suddenly, is being a blade chops swiftly and violently to the head. 就在这种千钧一发的紧要关头,一名黑衣人如夜幕觅食的狸猫翻-墙而落,手提一把朴刀,眨眼间来到徐凤年身畔,对着脑袋就是一刀迅猛劈下。 This blade divided is chops, was soft, cannot certainly cut the head of Xu Fengnian, because Xu Fengnian both hands supported, the body was curving, pastes the icy cold flagstone to revolve a great-circle, in the sleeve coped with the gold/metal wisp of lasing of Profundity Indicating musician, was punctured thoroughly the head by the eye socket, when entering the stage are not many assassin died at the scene certainly. 这一刀劈是劈下了,软绵绵得很,当然没有能够切下徐凤年的头颅,因为徐凤年双手撑地,身体弯曲,贴着冰凉石板旋转出一个大圆,袖中原本对付指玄琴师的金缕激射而出,由眼眶刺透头颅,出场没多时的刺客当场死绝。 The murder with was killed is always in a flash. 杀人与被杀从来都是不过弹指间。 The Xu Fengnian body has not fallen to the ground, the street wall splits loudly, the second grandiose black-clothed person is more convenient, the direct broken wall runs out, an axe cuts the waist! 徐凤年身体还未落地,巷弄墙壁轰然裂开,第二名壮硕黑衣人更加省事,直接破墙冲出,一斧斩腰! Xu Fengnian does not need the hands and feet to touch the ground, the body revolves to the side, that broad-ax with a sudden burst head , after failing, splits an entire green slat, after Xu Fengnian stands up, the shoulder by to that black clothes assassin, mounts many collision, but does not want to make this muscular strength astonishing robust man get back one's composure to gather the vigor, Xu Fengnian then stretches out a palm, pastes on the assassin temples, before small wrong step alternately treads, in this process Great Yellow Court that takes the opportunity to save rapidly surges disorderly, air/Qi promotes, the imposing manner of he and assassin is in inverse proportion, one grasps the robust man of broad-ax to advance on the wall, the head pounds to enter the mud wall, explodes a big hole. Come, how Xu Fengnian to the leeway that he hits back, a left hand fist inch vigor will rumble exactly in the assassin waist, the right hand holds down that head, a stroke on the wall, has wiped an shocking beach bloodstain forcefully, after letting go, the assassin whole piece face covered with blood permeating clay, is deceased person one. 徐凤年无需手脚触及地面,身体向侧面旋转,那一板斧卯足了劲头,落空后裂开一整块青石板,徐凤年站起身后,肩膀靠向那名黑衣刺客,黏多过撞,只是不想让这名膂力惊人的壮汉回神蓄劲,徐凤年然后伸出一掌,贴在刺客太阳穴上,小错步交替前踏,这个过程里借机迅速积攒杂乱涌动的大黄庭,一气推出,他和刺客的气势此消彼长,一把就手持板斧的壮汉推到墙壁上,脑袋砸入泥壁,炸出一个大坑来,徐凤年岂会给他还手的余地,左手一拳寸劲恰好轰在刺客腰间,右手按住那颗头颅,在墙壁上一划而过,硬生生抹出触目惊心的一滩血迹,松手以后,刺客整张面孔血肉模糊渗入黄泥,已是死人一个。 Xu Fengnian kills two people continually, but the short scenes of 67 breaths. 徐凤年连杀两人,不过六七息的短暂光景。 this time is the genuine strength weary air/Qi uses up, the eye of blind female musician finger hooks on to a string, collapse broken a string, Xu Fengnian must die again without doubt. 这一次是真正的力疲气竭,目盲女琴师手指钩住一根琴弦,再崩断一弦,徐凤年必死无疑。 Her bulb touches the string, the facial expression changes, changes has one's wife die to do to select the string, this burnt/anxious Wei guqin leaves the knees, in the future will fly. 她指肚才碰触琴弦,神情微变,变断弦作挑弦,这架焦尾古琴离开双膝,往后飞去。 Bang. 砰一声。 The guqin is cracked in the sky. 古琴当空龟裂。 Xu Fengnian sighed, supported the wall, was somewhat regrettable, such good opportunity will not come again. 徐凤年叹了口气,扶住墙壁,有些遗憾,这样的良机不会再来了。 Before the rain . 雨前。 At that time Xu Fengnian set out to leave the telling fortunes outdoor shop under old willow tree, saw that a 15 or 16 years old strong youngster blocked in the street center, in rags, is carrying a broken china bowl, probably a rascal beggar who decided the entanglement to beg the copper coin continuous, the youngster grins the smile, revealed a white tooth, in a soft voice two characters in the Beiliang words, eleventh of the twelve Earthly Branches, fifth heavenly stem.” 那时候徐凤年起身离开老柳树下的算命摊子,看到一名十五六岁的健硕少年拦在街道中央,衣衫褴褛,端着一口破瓷碗,像是个打定主意纠缠不休讨要铜钱的无赖乞丐,少年咧嘴微笑,露出一口洁白牙齿,用北凉话轻声说了两个字,“戌,戊。” Xu Fengnian continues. The youngster are backing up following, is smiling in others eyes, the look is exceptionally limpid, said in a soft voice: My Master is eleventh of the twelve Earthly Branches in 12 twelve Earthly Branches, has been responsible for monitoring Zhao and Qi in secret, I am here locally born orphan, hits slightly is punished the apprentice by Master, three years ago Master passes away, I went to Beiliang according to the Master last wish, the original intention is to inherit the mantle to make this eleventh of the twelve Earthly Branches, but big General has not complied, but in made me do for ten days to do the fifth heavenly stem, a while ago I obtained the news of another twelve Earthly Branches person ready dead, said that Your Highness Heir could come, made me pay attention.” 徐凤年继续前行。少年倒退着跟上,在旁人眼中嬉皮笑脸,眼神异常清澈,轻声说道:“我师父是十二地支中的戌,一直负责暗中监视苏赵齐三人,我是这儿土生土长的孤儿,打小被师父收作徒弟,三年前师父老死,我按照师父遗愿去了趟北凉,本意是继承衣钵做这个戌,但大将军没答应,而是让我做了十天干里的戊,前段时间我得到另外一名地支死士的消息,说世子殿下可能要来,就让我多留心。” Xu Fengnian strikes an attitude to pull out silver slivers, has not thrown into the bowl eagerly, the bystander seems like some scattered copper coin, somewhat loves dearly money. 徐凤年作势掏出一颗碎银,没有急于丢入碗中,外人看来是有些零散铜钱,有些心疼银子。 The youngster said fast: In city came two groups of killers, one group of three people, the skill not, another is the back zither | Jean female demon, called Xue Songguan, in the Beimang ten big demons ranked fifth, the person who placed second in the imperial civil service examination on killer list, was very thorny, young I excelled at six stone bow, 300 steps by internal injury and Vajra body and spirit, but so the power and influence, a day can only project an arrow. Your highness, is kills her to hide from her? I listen your.” 少年快速说道:“城里来了两拨杀手,一拨三人,身手不咋的,另外一位是背琴女魔头,叫薛宋官,北莽十大魔头里排第五,杀手榜上的榜眼,很棘手,小的我擅长六石弓,三百步以内伤及金刚体魄,不过这般威势,一天只能射出一箭。殿下,是杀她还是躲她?我听你的。” Xu Fengnian throws into the silver slivers the bowl, said without hesitation: Kills.” 徐凤年将碎银丢入碗中,毫不犹豫道:“杀。” The youngster put on airs to become greedy at the sight of money, the smile is bright, asks: But Your highness, she is the Profundity Indicating expert, is not good to kill.” 少年装模作样见钱眼开,笑脸灿烂,问道:“可是殿下,她是指玄高手,不好杀啊。” Xu Fengnian walks while said that does not catch up with the facial expression of fly patiently, the tone said lightly: I attract her attention , one group of three people while I and Xue Songguan will slaughter will hit a person when he is down when if as expected, if I am unable to kill her, will certainly keep the strength to kill them, when the time comes you will project an arrow beyond 300 by all means.” 徐凤年边走边说,一幅不耐烦赶苍蝇的神情,语气平淡道:“我吸引她注意力,不出意外的话,一拨三人会趁我与薛宋官厮杀时落井下石,我若是无法杀死她,也一定会留力杀他们,到时候你只管在三百步以外射出一箭。” Sloppy youngster proper hehe has not said with a smile: „Does Your Highness Heir, need to bet such in a big way? You were dying, I may probably unable to live.” 邋遢少年没个正经嘿嘿笑道:“世子殿下,需要赌这么大吗?你要死了,我可就要也活不了。” The Xu Fengnian smile said: Gambling cannot always think to slightly wrestle in a big way, such stingy gambler ten bets nine to lose.” 徐凤年微笑道:“赌博不能总想着以小搏大,这样抠门的赌徒十赌九输。” Youngster at present one bright, as if very approves of this viewpoint. 少年眼前一亮,似乎十分赞同这个观点。 Xu Fengnian smiles, is ordinary with the personality strange capricious playboys, extends the foot to kick out of the way this youngster, brings back that grain of silver slivers from the bowl. 徐凤年笑了笑,跟性情古怪反复无常的纨绔子弟一般,伸脚踢开这名少年,从碗里拿回那粒碎银。 The dumbfounded person ready dead youngster is looking at this natural back, swallowed saliva, puts out two characters: Stingy!” 目瞪口呆的死士少年望着这个潇洒背影,咽了一口唾沫,吐出两字:“抠门!” At this time in rain. 此时雨中。 Before without the woman tender body of that banana leaf guqin, kicks out a slight scope, stops to sway, an eye of blind musician puts out a blood, puts out a hand to draw out an profound iron arrow from the back, benefits the arrow to prick back one inch, not serious wound and bottom of one's heart. 没了那架蕉叶式古琴的女子娇躯前扑出一个细微幅度,止住摇晃,目盲琴师吐出一口鲜血,伸手从后背拔出一根玄铁箭,利箭只是刺入后背一寸,并未严重伤及肺腑。 A long spear/gun from the wall internal breaks wall, the thorn to Xu Fengnian, the result was thrown the tapping arrow by the female demon bewilderedly, shoots thoroughly the assassin head. Xu Fengnian avoids the lance point easily, looks curiously to the Profundity Indicating musician who this first kills people saves others again, then beckons with the hand. 一杆长枪从墙内穿墙而出,刺向徐凤年,结果莫名其妙被女魔头丢出铁箭,射透刺客脑袋。徐凤年轻而易举躲开枪尖,好奇望向这名先杀人再救人的指玄琴师,然后摆了摆手。 Beyond archery youngster 300 pulls the bow archery, is to go into hiding the trail, since reveals the secret, withstand/top such as a leopard flexibly vertical to leap in the eaves, pulls closer to hundred steps, draws like the full moon, aims at the female demon. 射箭少年三百步以外挽弓射箭,是要隐匿踪迹,既然露馅,就在屋檐顶如一头豹子灵活纵跃,拉近到百步,拉弓如满月,对准女魔头。 Has the lord to hint, the youngster does not shoot arrows eagerly, furthermore an arrow can not succeed, whether the second arrow could cause the mortal wound also two to say to this musician. Except that in the hand in the string iron arrow, shoulders the arrow pouch only to remain one. 有主子示意,少年也不急于射箭,再者一箭不得成功,第二箭能否对这个琴师造成致命伤还两说。除去手上在弦铁箭,背负箭囊仅剩一根。 She stands up said slowly: „Is Xu Fengnian, or Beiliang Your Highness Heir? I when the dragon waist state, first some people buy you dead by the golden 500 jin (0.5 kg), afterward some people bought you to live with 600 jin (0.5 kg) gold.” 她站起身缓缓说道:“徐凤年,或者说是北凉世子殿下?我在龙腰州时,先有人以黄金五百斤买你死,后来又有人用六百斤黄金买你活。” The Xu Fengnian nod said: My this whereabouts entire Beiliang knows what route is about 89 people, many people can remove the suspicion outside, now seems like not Chu Lushan is Ye Xizhen must buy my life, 500 jin (0.5 kg) gold, Ball Lu definitely has, Ye Xizhen not necessarily. But the human affairs is difficult to predict, how the lord knows truth is. As for buying me lives, definitely is my Master Li Yishan. Why did you collect the second gold also to kill me?” 徐凤年点头道:“我这趟行踪整个北凉知道路线的不过八九人,很多人都可以排除嫌疑在外,现在看来不是褚禄山就是叶熙真要买我的性命,五百斤黄金,禄球儿肯定有,叶熙真则未必。但世事难料,天晓得真相是如何。至于买我活的,肯定是我师父李义山。你为何收了第二笔黄金还要杀我?” She said naturally: Must be fastidious about a first come first served, I have said to oneself, so long as the samisen breaks, you can also live, I no longer kill you.” 她理所当然道:“总要讲究一个先来后到,我对自己说过,只要三弦断去,你还能活下来,我就不再杀你。” Does not need Xu Fengnian to have an action to perform, the youngster was decisive a arrow to shoot to lie down on the green slat peacefully in five string. 不用徐凤年有所动作,少年就果断一箭射断了安静躺在青石板上五根弦中的一根。 Is the demon to make killer without hampering the other Xue Songguan to ask: I do not kill you, do you want to kill me?” 做魔头做杀手两不误的薛宋官问道:“我已经不杀你,你要杀我吗?” An internal energy almost painful dead past Xu Fengnian face twisted overwhelmingly said: You do not hit back I to kill!” 一身气机翻江倒海几乎痛死过去的徐凤年脸庞扭曲道:“你不还手我就杀!” Her corners of the mouth symbol pulled pulling, was closes with a smile probably. 她嘴角象征性扯了扯,大概算是一笑置之了。 Xu Fengnian sits cross-legged to sit, finally finds time to have time to absorb that two Zen gold/metal pill's essence. 徐凤年盘膝而坐,终于抽空得闲去吸纳那颗两禅金丹的精华。 The youngster fifth heavenly stem jumps along the roof top to Xu Fengnian side, looks to be destroyed the female demon of guqin to that by oneself discretely. 少年戊沿着屋顶墙头一路跳到徐凤年身边,谨慎望向那名被自己毁去古琴的女魔头。 But she picks up the guqin fragment and string carefully, holds cautiously in the bosom, then sits in the stone steps is in a daze. 而她只是仔细捡起古琴碎片和琴弦,小心翼翼捧在怀中,然后坐在石阶上发呆。 The heavy rain stands still gradually. 大雨渐停歇。 Venerable teacher Zhao Dingxiu goes out of the front gate in the company of blacksmith, the latter gathers up dead bodies, the venerable teacher looked at the eye to set out the musician who collected the front piece to salute, looked at the young man who the patten root sat in meditation again, as well as held the youngster of bow, sighed: The words that you spoke I heard. The future is a guest, comes.” 老夫子赵定秀在铁匠陪伴下走出院门,后者去收尸,老夫子看了眼起身敛衽行礼的琴师,再看了眼墙脚根入定的年轻男子,以及持弓的少年,叹息道:“你们说的话我都听到了。来者是客,都进来吧。” The eye blind musician first walks into the yard, does not forget to take up that to stand slantingly in the small umbrella of threshold. 目盲琴师先走入小院,不忘拿起那把斜立在门槛的小伞。 After burning a joss stick, Xu Fengnian stands up, goes to the wall to extract Spring Thunder, then enters courtyard with the youngster fifth heavenly stem. 一炷香后,徐凤年站起身,去墙上抽出春雷,然后和少年戊一起走进院子 This room, except for lying down in Su Su that in the chair remains unconscious, Beiliang Your Highness Heir, the person ready dead fifth heavenly stem, Western Shu old people Zhao Dingxiu, in addition female demon Xue Songguan, is really much absurder. 这一屋子,除了躺在椅中昏迷不醒的苏酥,还有北凉世子殿下,死士戊,西蜀遗老赵定秀,加上一个女魔头薛宋官,实在是荒谬得一塌糊涂。 The venerable teacher shot a look at Xu Fengnian, each family have the problem, Beiliang of that 300,000 cavalry unity is strength also was never so expected that chaotic in the past.” 老夫子瞥了一眼徐凤年,“家家有本难念的经,没想到当年那个三十万铁骑众志成城的北凉也这般乱了。” Xu Fengnian takes off outside the garment, said with a smile: Is satisfied just to get by, what said is small rich, the big enterprise has lots of assets, stabilize after particularly completely, Zhao Family Son of Heaven cannot do to Beiliang, Beimang also almost takes 300,000 cavalries not to have idea, everyone is idling being all right, would various internal fights.” 徐凤年脱去外衫,笑道:“小富即安,说的是小富,家大业大,尤其是完全安定下来以后,赵家天子没能奈何北凉,北莽也差不多拿三十万铁骑没辙,大伙儿闲着没事,总会有各种各样内斗的。” The venerable teacher sneers saying: Your Highness Heir is actually good the broad mind.” 老夫子冷笑道:“世子殿下倒是好宽阔的胸襟。” Xu Fengnian sits on the threshold, depends on the door journal, to pass message to you, almost kept here the life, was this Western Shu loses people the hospitality of?” 徐凤年坐在门槛上,靠着房门轴枢,“为了给你们捎话,差点把命都留在这里,这就是西蜀遗民的待客之道?” Past the Spring and Autumn great Confucian scholar said desolately: Do not forget Western Shu to be trod broken by your Beiliang army.” 昔日春秋鸿儒冷淡道:“别忘了西蜀是被你们北凉军踏破的。” Xu Fengnian waves saying: Does not have the Beiliang army to extinguish Western Shu, there is a southern cool Western Liang to make this specific name to keep history's matter, but south cool Western Liang anything will not let off your Western Shu Crown Prince. I say that now a character drill loves dearly, don't keep guessing good?” 徐凤年挥手道:“没有北凉军灭西蜀,也有南凉西凉去做这种名留青史的事情,但南凉西凉什么的可不会放过你们西蜀太子。我现在说一个字都钻心疼,就别卖关子了行不行?” The venerable teacher narrows the eye saying: „Do you believe me to make a person of sword cut in the head?” 老夫子眯眼道:“你信不信我让人一剑斩去你项上头颅?” Xu Fengnian referred to looked at the blind musician, turned away from his woman to be of one mind saying: Xue Songguan has accepted 600 jin (0.5 kg) gold, simultaneous/uniform sword the master must kill his words, I will intend to stop.” 徐凤年指了指目盲琴师,背对他的女子心有灵犀说道:“薛宋官已经收下六百斤黄金,齐剑师要杀他的话,我会出手阻拦。” Xu Fengnian smiles saying: scholar Zhao, how?” 徐凤年笑眯眯道:“赵老学士,如何?” Venerable teacher cold snort/hum. 老夫子冷哼一声。 Xu Fengnian said: Western Shu duplicate/restores country not in old Western Shu, again toward south, but the next 800 li (0.5 km), have Nanzhao 18, you unified discussed the duplicate/restores country again, Beiliang have the board game piece of hidden to provide in that side direct to you.” 徐凤年说道:“西蜀复国不在旧西蜀,再往南而下八百里,有南诏十八部,你们去统一了再谈复国,北凉在那边有隐藏的棋子可以提供给你们使唤。” Venerable teacher look one cold. 老夫子眼神一凛。 Xu Fengnian comes straight to the point saying: In the world with the matter of advantage, I have not first accepted an advance payment white/in vain. Heard that these twenty years surnamed Qi has cast the sword secretly, no matter the sword casts, even only then the sword embryo, must give to me.” 徐凤年开门见山说道:“天底下没有白拿好处的事情,我先收下一笔定金。听说姓齐的这二十年一直偷偷铸剑,不管剑有没有铸成,就算只有个剑胚,也要送给我。” The venerable teacher bristles with anger, scolds: Gets the hell out!” 老夫子怒发冲冠,骂道:“滚蛋!” The Xu Fengnian supercilious look said: Zhao Dingxiu, do not result in cheaply also showed off cleverness, let alone a sword, I estimated you, if has a granddaughter, heard that the duplicate/restores country is hopeful, but also do different both hands offer?” 徐凤年白眼道:“赵定秀,别得了便宜还卖乖,别说一柄剑,我估计你要是有个孙女,听说复国有望,还不一样双手奉上?” The old pedantry results in the lip to be pale, he has not practiced martial art fortunately, otherwise took up the fellow to with this young bastard go all out most likely. 老夫子气得嘴唇铁青,亏得他不曾习武,否则十有八九抄起家伙就要跟这小王八蛋拼命了。 Returns to the courtyard blacksmith tranquil say/way: That Spring and Autumn, you take away are.” 返回院子的铁匠平静道:“那柄春秋,你拿去就是。” Xu Fengnian gawked. 徐凤年愣了一下。 The blacksmiths look to Xu Fengnian, Sun hit the west side to come out to give birth for the first time say with a smile: „An alley war, the nicely chewy is full. I have been listening to your spoken language, when with the person slaughters had not said that over ten characters, knows that you are the nimble and efficient person, I like, like the past lord, our Western Shu Sword Sovereign, the murder then killed people, gua chirp hammer. This Spring and Autumn will not bring disgrace on your hand.” 铁匠望向徐凤年,太阳打西边出来开怀笑道:“小巷一战,筋道十足。我一直在听你的言语,跟人厮杀时没说超过十个字,知道你是爽利人,我喜欢,像当年主子,咱们的西蜀剑皇,杀人便杀人,呱噪个锤子。想必这柄春秋在你手上不会辱没了去。” Spoke these words, the blacksmith is nimble and efficient, foot treads in the institute, a sword chest breaks ground to raise up. 说完这句话,铁匠更是爽利,一脚踏在院中,一只剑匣破土竖起。 Has not had the chest, is sword qi to/clashes the bullfight! 未曾出匣,便已是剑气冲斗牛!
