Chapter 4 ghost nest 第四章鬼巢 The Xu Xian complexion changes, suddenly remembers these two people to fear today has the fatal disaster, although is the reason is they are greedy for money lasciviously, but Xu Xian fishing kills the law to this type, really begs to differ, has saved others a life the thoughts. 许仙脸色一变,突然想起这两个人今天怕是有杀身之祸,虽然是缘由是他们自己贪财好色,但许仙对这种“钓鱼”杀法,实在不敢苟同,就生出了“救人一命”的心思。 The moon-face young people who a student dresses up are standing under the porch look at the scenery, in the room the young book child is cleaning up the room. 一个书生打扮的圆脸年轻人正站在廊下看风景,屋里小书童正在收拾房间。 Your where person?” Xu Xian asked. “请问兄台哪里人士?”许仙问道。 The students knit the brows: Who are you?” Among the looks actually does not welcome, he also thinks that Xu Xian is also takes an exam. 书生皱眉道:“你是何人?”神色间却不怎么欢迎,他还以为许仙也是来应试。 Xu Xian said: „Below Xu Xian, is the Gongtian Academy student, is ordered to come to golden flower to attend to official duties.” 许仙道:“在下许仙,是觐天书院的学生,奉命来金华办差。” What! Gongtian Academy? The elder brother on, was done obeisance by the little brother.” The student the arrogance does not have immediately, bows to salute. Said that are obviously small young Xu Xian for the elder brother. “什么!觐天书院?兄长在上,受小弟一拜。”那书生立刻傲气全无,躬身行礼。称明显比自己小着几岁的许仙为兄长。 The Xu Xian heart said: I know that you eat this set. What in the scholarly world is the person heaviest? Official title? Made a mistake, is the school record. Regardless the formal occasion, the officials get together, divide under a seat of honor the place, must first arrange is actually not the government position size, but is the school record height. Scholar compared with tongsheng entire big first-level, is beyond control this student is not respectful. 许仙心道:我就知道你吃这一套。儒林中人最重什么?官衔吗?错了,是学历。抛开正式场合,官员们聚会,分个上座下座,第一个要排的却不是官职大小,而是学历高低。秀才则比童生整整大了一级,也由不得这书生不恭敬。 Xu Xian received his ritual confidently, said: You may know you to be on the verge of death.” 许仙坦然受了他这一礼,道:“你可知你危在旦夕。” Under the book entertains feelings is not unhappy: Elder brother where words, will the little brother, how be on the verge of death well?” 书生心下不喜道:“兄长哪里话,小弟好好的,怎么会危在旦夕呢?” In the Xu Xian word temple has the ghost, the offending somebody life, and said with him the matter of last night. But the student look flashes, as if has something else in mind. Xu Xian knows him to be half believing and half doubting, but also knows, this matter truly is verbal statements are no guarantee. 许仙具言寺中有鬼怪,伤人性命,并把昨晚之事与他说了。但那书生眼神闪动,似乎别有所想。许仙知道他将信将疑,但也知道,这种事确实是口说无凭。 At this time, Ning Caichen walked, only shot a look at that student one eyes, the known his status, nodded the head slightly, was the serious offense calls, then shifted to Xu Xian saying: „Our walks! And the thing does not need to tidy up, delivers the invitation, we must pass by here, at this time feared golden flower academy interior not to the vacant room that we kept, tonight lives in an evening again, tomorrow will arrive in my family to circle two days!” 这时候,宁采臣走进来,只瞥了那书生一眼,已知他身份,微微颔首,算是大过招呼,便转向许仙道:“咱们这就走吧!东西且不用收拾,送完请柬,我们还要路过这里,这种时候恐怕金华书院里也没有给我们留的空房,今晚再住一晚,明天到我家里去盘旋两日吧!” Xu Xian hurries saying: Brother Ning, whether last night had the female to your room.” 许仙赶紧道:“宁兄,昨夜是否有女子到你房中。” Although how Ning Caichen is astonished Xu Xian to know, but not the false decoration, said: „, But was said by me two drove out.” 宁采臣虽然讶异许仙怎么知道,但也不伪饰,道:“是有一个,不过被我说了两句赶出去了。” Perhaps is the ghosts and demons!” “恐怕是鬼魅吧!” Any ghosts and demons, we also read the saints and sages book, did not hear: Child not speaking occult and uncanny things. Even if the ghosts and demons have what to fear.” Loud and clear that Ning Caichen words saying, he also feels like happy, finally spoke the words. “什么鬼魅,我们也是读圣贤书的,难道不闻:子不语怪力乱神。而且就算是鬼魅又有何惧。”宁采臣一番话说的掷地有声,他心里也觉得痛快,终于把话说完了。 Xu Xian is smiling bitterly the standing up body, to that book unfamiliar road: Words hence, having asked Monarch to be self determined, best is fast departs, if cannot also probably study my rather not to move the evil thought that can guarantee the life to be worry-free.” Said that one departed submissively. 许仙苦笑着站起身子,对那书生道:“话已至此,请君自决,最好是速速离去,若是不能也要学我这位宁不要动邪念,才能保得性命无忧。”说完一拱手就离去了。 The student is timid, expressed gratitude repeatedly. 那书生唯唯诺诺,连声道谢。 The book child heard is not fishily good, asked that student who feared young master, did we walk?” 书童听闻有鬼早就怕的不行,问那书生“公子,我们走吗?” Walks? Walks, don't I believe this sunny day also to be fishy? They do not walk, urged others to walk, really thinks that this young master was a fool, Gongtian Academy was great!” Some words he had not said with book child, if is really the ghost, is a colorful ghost, two fools will not enjoy happiness. Moreover he guessed that enticed nearby female family members probably, feared that the bystander discloses to deceive him to walk, if so, he must slice may not. “走?走个屁,我就不信这青天白日还能有鬼?他们自己不走,却劝人家走,真以为本公子是傻子,觐天书院了不起啊!”有些话他却没同书童说,如果真是鬼,也是个艳鬼,两个傻子不会享福。而且他猜测大概是勾引了附近的女眷,怕外人声张出去才骗他走,若真是那样,他非要分一杯羹不可。 In the evening, Xu Xian two people of the time of returning to Lanruo Temple, knows that the student died. Xu Xian hears the news to stare, later sighed, oneself could not save him after all. But the road is walks, others can do reminded the help, but cannot make the choice for you. 晚上,许仙二人回到兰若寺的时候,才知道书生死了。许仙听到消息一愣,随后叹息一声,自己终归是救不了他。但路是自己走的,别人所能做的只是提醒帮助,而不能替你做选择。 Two people are the guts color excellent generations, looks at the corpse to the east wing, on the corpse is seamless, on the book unfamiliar face of dying also has the happy expression of being enchanted by, only then the sole of the foot eyelet, has the blood stream to leave faintly. This strange scene, the bonus is two people of courage is uncommon, pulled out an cold air/Qi. 两人都是胆色过人之辈,到东厢房看了一看尸体,尸身上毫无伤痕,死去的书生脸上还带着迷醉的笑意,只有足心有一个小孔,隐隐有血流出。这种诡异的场面,饶是二人胆气不凡,也抽了一口冷气。 That book child to corpse sob, but crying is oneself, the master bewildered death, can elute the responsibility even, where his fate still very to goes probably, the careful sound added gloomy and cold atmosphere. 那书童只是对着尸体哭泣,只是哭的是自己,主人莫名其妙的死了,就算能洗脱干系,他的下场大概也好不到哪去,细细的声音更增添了一股阴冷的气氛。 Xu Xian has pile of bonfires with Ning Caichen in the Buddhist temple hall inner point, becomes the cold air, today two people bought something to plan to invite Yan Chixia to hobnob in the evening, are counted thanks yesterday's entertainment. In the fire simmered the liquor, one side the paper-insulated prepared food places, two people somewhat are silent. Originally also makes that book child come, but that book child uses a pretext to pack the thing again. 许仙同宁采臣在佛殿内点起一堆篝火,趋一趋寒气,今日二人买了些东西打算晚上邀燕赤霞共饮,算作答谢昨日的招待。火上煨了酒,纸包的熟食放在一边,二人都有些沉默。本来也让那书童过来,但那书童推说要收拾一下东西再来。 For a long time later, does not see that book child to come as before, Xu Xian cannot endure to seek him, actually in the thick patch of grass of courtyard discovered that the body of that book child, a chest hole, the heart has disappeared without a trace. Nearby package sprinkles some gold and silver, wants to be this book child Xiangjuan the property escaped, actually does not know that evil thought that the malicious ghost is in front of the goal. 许久之后,依旧不见那书童来,许仙耐不住去寻他,却在院子的草丛里发现那书童的尸体,胸口一个洞,心已经不知去向。旁边一个包裹洒落些许金银,想是这书童想卷了财物逃跑,却不知邪念一声,恶鬼临门。 The bonfire flaming, is dignified buddhist image Buddha Ancestor, is the Buddhist doctrine also takes the will of the people not to have the means boundlessly? Is this malicious ghost murder also a part of Buddhist doctrine? Why otherwise has six samsara? Why has the nether world hell? 篝火熊熊,身后便是庄严宝相的佛祖,是佛法无边也拿人心没有办法?还是这恶鬼杀人也是佛法的一部分?不然为何有六道轮回?为何有阴司地狱? Xu Xian sits, considering, these two people of idle capitals are in the book should have the plot, he completely the human affairs, had self-examined to have no qualms in the heart. Is greedy for money the lascivious act regarding them, no favorable impression. But some bothering are always pestering him, did person well, die like this? Is greedy for money also well, lascivious also good, but the way things should be, puts down the fishhook like fishing, the fish swallows the fish, even gets what one deserves? 许仙坐着,思量着,这二人的死本就是书中应有情节,他已经尽了人事,自问无愧于心。对于他们贪财好色的行径,也没什么好感。但总有些烦扰纠缠着他,好好的人,就这样死了吗?贪财也好,好色也好,不过人之常情,就像钓者放下鱼钩,鱼儿吞食鱼儿,就算是活该吗? Yan Chixia comes back to make the atmosphere that in this courtyard stagnates deliver, he of shoulder wide reach enters in the palace with stride, haha said with a smile: I just entered this Buddhist monastery to ask this wine taste.” Actually noticed two people difference look how, wailing a face.” 燕赤霞回来才让这庭中凝滞的气氛为之一送,肩宽臂长的他大步走进殿中,哈哈笑道:“我刚进这寺门就问道这酒味了。”却又注意到两人异样的神色“怎么了,都哭丧个脸。” Xu Xian is looking at the straightforward man, felt that were many some security senses, a today's matter saying. 许仙看着着粗豪汉子,也感觉多了些安全感,就把今日的事一说。 Yan Chixia is frowning, two thick eyebrows are entangled together feared that is the monster charm injures someone! However the will of the people does not move, the monster charm is hard to violate.” In the tone has the contemptuous flavor, actually does not know what is contemptuous is the ghost or the person, perhaps is both has both at the same time! 燕赤霞皱着眉头,两道浓眉纠结在一起“怕是妖魅害人吧!不过人心不移,妖魅难以侵害。”语气中含着轻蔑的味道,却不知道轻蔑的是鬼还是人,或许是两者兼而有之吧! Ning Caichen bright sound said: This truth, does not make the matter that weighs on the conscience, did not fear that the ghost knocks at the door. swallow the brother, for your words, I respects your one cup.” 宁采臣朗声道:“正是这个道理,不做亏心事,不怕鬼叫门。燕兄,为你这句话,我敬你一杯。” Xu Xian knits the brows secretly, cannot approve the mentality of ancient completely, but Yan Chixia lives in this, although sets out early and returns late every day, but by his ability, should be knows that here has the ghosts and demons, no matter why? 许仙暗自皱眉,还是不能完全认同古人的思路,但燕赤霞长居于此,虽然每日早出晚归,但以他的能力,该是知道这里有鬼魅的,为何不管? Thinks that the method of monster charm murder, Xu Xian sighed, this general idea felt the people who die have only self to blame! Is greedy for money lasciviously even damn, not damn under such trap. The life is decided by the day, the road is actually own, Xu Xian does not want to question others' choice, but is actually determined to sweep this Lanruo Temple ghosts and demons wang liang. azure rainbow sword lies down in the side, but must borrow a person of strength. 想想妖魅杀人的方法,许仙感叹,这位大概感觉死的人都是咎由自取吧!只是贪财好色就算是该死,也不该死在这样陷阱之下。命由天定,路却是自己的,许仙不想质疑别人的选择,但却下定决心要一扫这兰若寺的鬼魅魍魉。青虹剑就躺在身边,但还需借一人之力。 Three people drink wine to eat the meat, three honest straightforward generations meet some really liquor to meet friend thousand cups of few feelings together, in the dark main hall, bends down to be worthy of the heroic spirit, sense of justice and righteous qi world supinely floods the entire palace. 三人饮酒吃肉,三个正直豪爽之辈遇到一起真有些酒逢知己千杯少的感觉,黑沉沉的大殿里,仰俯无愧于天地的豪气、侠气、正气充斥整个殿宇。 The vision that outside the main hall in a deeper darkness, peeps at innumerably spookily, shocks for this aura, where dares to approach. 大殿外更深的黑暗中,无数幽幽窥视的目光,为这气息所震慑,哪里敢靠近。 The liquor to the luxurious place, Xu Xian asked the Yan Chixia entire life behavior. 酒到酣处,许仙笑问燕赤霞生平所为。 Yan Chixia talks about slightly, not slightly the color of being conceit. Ning Caichen only knows that front this man is a knight-errant swordsman, suddenly has the interest, closely examines again and again, Yan Chixia does not have vaguely, confident say/way it. Also does not do intentionally modestly, non- empty boasting is conceit. 燕赤霞只是略略谈及,并无丝毫自矜之色。宁采臣这才知道面前这男子是个剑侠,顿起兴趣,也是连连追问,燕赤霞无所隐晦,也都坦然道之。既不故作谦虚,也不浮夸自矜。 Executes the crafty disciple, unites the generation of non- righteousness, looks in all directions to kill people, ten do not keep the body. 诛奸佞之徒,戮不义之辈,四顾而杀人,十步不留身。 As to these things, hears two people are the one's heart rusheses toward one's destination, wishing one could oneself is that person of holding a sword, Ning Caichen then must be a disciple of this field of endeavor at the scene. 如此种种,听得二人都是心驰神往,恨不能自己就是那仗剑之人,宁采臣当场便要从师此道。 Yan Chixia said: Monarch are surnamed rigidly, may study this field of endeavor, is only in the family/home the parents still, how can not take the academic honor to serve the old mother.” 燕赤霞道:“君姓刚直,可学此道,只是家中高堂尚在,怎能不取功名以侍奉老母。” Ning Caichen immediately sincere say/way: Swallow brother stands to reason, was I was offensive, Baishan filial piety for first, unfilial person, was far from what chivalry.” From punishing one cup. 宁采臣立刻正色道:“燕兄言之有理,是我唐突了,百善孝为先,不孝之人,也谈不上什么侠义。”说完就自罚一杯。 Chatting, the meat has been fed up, the liquor also has. Xu Xian thought that regarding this two people, why must others pour liquor down the throat, the natural liquor to drank, listened to Yan Chixia these facts, did not drink a large cup of wine as a penalty for losing in a finger-guessing game to be insufficient the quick oneself heart. 谈笑着,肉已吃尽,酒还有余。许仙却觉得对此二人,何须别人灌酒,自然酒到即饮,听了燕赤霞那些事迹,更是不浮一大白不足以快己心。 I hear a poem, does for Mr .” Xu Xian said that read aloud loudly: „ “我闻一诗,正是为君所做。”许仙说罢就高声诵道:“ Zhao Keman reckless Ying, Wu hook frost and snow is bright. Silver saddle according to white horse, stack like meteor. 赵客缦胡缨,吴钩霜雪明。银鞍照白马,飒沓如流星。 Ten steps kill one person, the thousand li (500 km) does not keep the line. The matter flicked the sleeve, deeply hides with. 十步杀一人,千里不留行。事了拂衣去,深藏身与名。 Idles Xinling to drink, takes off/escapes the sword before your knees horizontal. Will roast feeds vermilion Hai, holds the wine vessel to urge Hou to win. 闲过信陵饮,脱剑膝前横。将炙啖朱亥,持觞劝侯嬴。 Three cups spit the promise, Sacred Mountains of China pour to lightly. After tipsying, the spirit vegetarian secondary rainbow lives. 三杯吐然诺,五岳倒为轻。眼花耳热后,意气素霓生。 Saves Zhao Huijin to hammer, Handan is first shocked. Millenium two brave soldiers, xuan summer beam city. 救赵挥金锤,邯郸先震惊。千秋二壮士,烜赫大梁城。 The vertical dead gallant and chivalrous frame of mind is fragrant, in unashamed world brave. Who can the book your excellency, elderly too profound. ” 纵死侠骨香,不惭世上英。谁能书阁下,白首太玄经。” Yan Chixia talked over vertical dead gallant and chivalrous frame of mind to be fragrant, in unashamed world brave.” The look is getting more and more bright, laughs saying: Our generation also calculates that in cultivation person, the age is actually about hundred years, with average man not different, asks why, did not strive for living forever, but asked dead with no regrets.” 燕赤霞念叨着“纵死侠骨香,不惭世上英。”眼神越来越亮,大笑道:“我辈也算修行中人,岁数却不过百年,与常人无异,所求为何,不求长生不老,但求死而无憾。” Drinks in the hot liquor pouring chest the anger, holds cold blade the enjoyable spirit. Although this common custom gloomy unclear, but has one person to hold a sword to act alone. 饮热酒浇胸中块垒,持冷刃舒心中意气。这世俗虽晦暗不明,但自有一人仗剑独行。 Xu Xian deep puts out liquor air/Qi, high sound said: Please taking advantage of a sword view!” 许仙深深的吐出一口酒气,高声道:“请借剑一观!” Yan Chixia shows generously, long non- more than a chi, a flickering however small sword. Visual Xu Xian, under the thick eyebrows, a pair of bright as snow pupil is in sharp contrast. 燕赤霞慨然出示,长不盈尺,荧荧然一小剑也。目视许仙,浓眉下,一双雪亮的眸子黑白分明。 Xu Xian also said: Please use taking advantage of the sword.” Looks straight ahead a Yan Chixia pair of sharp sword to obtain the pupil, because is selfless, therefore is firm. 许仙又道:“请借剑一用。”直视着燕赤霞一双利剑般得到眸子,因为无私,所以刚强。 Looking at each other long time, Yan Chixia laughs heartily, well good, today Yan then swings the clear monster atmosphere for Monarch, but also this place ringing universe.” 对视良久,燕赤霞纵声大笑,“好好好,今日燕某人便为君荡清妖氛,还此地一个朗朗乾坤。” Said that abandoned the sword pouch, in the small sword the hand throws high, a long and loud cry, the small sword is against the wind long, changes to the sword light to speed along together. Yan Chixia leapt outside the palace, Xu Xian also held azure rainbow sword to follow. 说罢弃了剑囊,将手中小剑高高抛起,一声长啸,小剑迎风而长,化作一道剑光飞驰而出。燕赤霞一跃出了殿外,许仙也持了青虹剑紧随其后。 In the darkness hears the cries of innumerable panic-stricken resenting, the place of sword light shining, is quiet immediately. The Yan Chixia laughter is dazzling than this sword light. 黑暗中传来无数惊恐愤恨的叫声,剑光照耀之处,立刻沉寂。燕赤霞的笑声却比这剑光更为耀眼。 In the temple for many years injured someone, is killed, is killed the ghost to injure someone. The malicious ghost demon there are numerous similar cases, at this moment met with the disaster, clenches jaws, swarms. 寺中许多年来害人的、被害的、被害化鬼又害人的。恶鬼夜叉不知凡几,此刻遭逢大难,咬牙切齿,蜂拥而起。 In the lotus pond under step crawls the ghost thing that several slightly anthropoid, plunges Yan Chixia, the sword light that in the air circles in flight flashes all pierces, the ghost thing looks weak is actually beach stench sludge. An electricity blood tongue demon calls out to fly, Yan Chixia refers to such as sword void one finger/refers, the demon falls down immediately. The quick steps bridge over the corridor, actually extends a great hand empty to grasp in the corner, looks at its momentum, if were grasped the inscription on stone tablet and bronze also to disrupt, but catches Yan Chixia actually such as by the acupuncture, immediately shrank. 阶下的荷塘中爬出几个略似人形的鬼物,扑向燕赤霞,空中飞旋的剑光一闪俱都洞穿,鬼物瘫软看去却是一滩腥臭的污泥。一只电目血舌夜叉嚎叫着飞来,燕赤霞并指如剑虚空一指,夜叉立刻坠地。疾步跨过走廊,却在拐角处伸出一只巨手虚抓过来,看它声势若是被握中金石也要碎裂,但抓到燕赤霞却如被针刺,登时缩了回去。 Xu Xian has not thought that here really has so many Demon ghosts, thinks oneself actually live in such a ghost hole, emits cold sweat. But looks at the Yan Chixia complexion like the iron, shows no sign of fear, liquor strong heroic feelings, Xu Xian high sound said: Swallow brother, I help your helping hand.” 许仙没想到这里竟然有如此多的妖魔鬼怪,想想自己竟然住在这么一个鬼窟中,也冒出一阵冷汗。但看燕赤霞脸色如铁,了无惧色,酒壮豪情,许仙高声道:“燕兄,我来助你一臂之力。”
