第一千九百七十八章雪仙子

Chapter 1978: Snow Fairy

“ xiǎng yào chuán jiā zhī bǎo kě yǐ ， dàn qián bèi shì bú shì yě gāi xìn shǒu chéng nuò ， ràng wǎn bèi jiàn shàng xiǎo shī mèi yí miàn ne ？” nà xiù cái jǐn wò quán tou ， rú cǐ zhè bān de kāi kǒu 。

“想要传家之宝可以，但前辈是不是也该信守承诺，让晚辈见上小师妹一面呢？”那秀才紧握拳头，如此这般的开口。

"Want to pass on the family treasure? Fine, but shouldn't Senior also keep his promise and let this junior see Little Sister?" The scholar clenched his fist tightly.

àn chù ， lín xuān diǎn le diǎn tóu ， zhè jiā huo ， dà gài zhǐ shì jiàn shí bù duō ， dào yě bú shì tiān shēng shǎ guā de 。

暗处，林轩点了点头，这家伙，大概只是见识不多，倒也不是天生傻瓜的。

In a hidden corner, Lin Xuan nodded. This guy probably just lacked experience; he wasn’t born stupid.

“ zěn me ， nǐ xìn bù guò wǒ ？” lǎo zhě yī è ， biǎo qíng sà rán yīn chén xià lái le 。

“怎么，你信不过我？”老者一愕，表情飒然阴沉下来了。

"How can you not trust me?" The elderly man was taken aback, his expression turning grim.

“ chéng xián dì ， zhè jiù shì nǐ bú duì le 。” jiàn liǎng zhě qǐ le zhēng zhí ， nà jīng shòu hàn zi máng zài yī páng dǎ qǐ biān gǔ ， rán ér zěn me tīng ， dōu xiàng shì hū yōu ：“ fù qián bèi dé gāo wàng zhòng ， tā lǎo rén jiā de pǐn gé ， nǐ hái yǒu shén me xìn bù guò ， yào zhī dào ， tā kě bú shì tān tú nǐ de bǎo wù ， cái huò yě hǎo ， chuán jiā zhī bǎo yě bà ， dōu shì yīn wèi zhè cì bāng máng ， suǒ xū dān dāng fēng xiǎn tài dà ， gù ér yào suǒ qǔ yī xiē chóu láo ， ruò bú shì lǎo gē de miàn zi ， huàn yī míng xiū shì ， jiù shì gěi zài dà de hǎo chù ， tā lǎo rén jiā yě bú huì bāng máng ， nǐ zhè yàng ， kě lìng rén shī wàng ……”

“程贤弟，这就是你不对了。”见两者起了争执，那精瘦汉子忙在一旁打起边鼓，然而怎么听，都像是忽悠：“付前辈德高望重，他老人家的品格，你还有什么信不过，要知道，他可不是贪图你的宝物，财货也好，传家之宝也罢，都是因为这次帮忙，所需担当风险太大，故而要索取一些酬劳，若不是老哥的面子，换一名修士，就是给再大的好处，他老人家也不会帮忙，你这样，可令人失望……”

"Brother Cheng, that's where your mistake lies," the thin man quickly chimed in to mediate their dispute, but it sounded more like an attempt at persuasion. "Senior Forefather is highly respected. His character and integrity are beyond reproach. You shouldn’t doubt him. He’s not after your treasures or wealth; he’s only asking for compensation due to the risks involved this time. If not for my face, no other cultivator would help you even with greater benefits. Your actions disappoint me..."

rán ér zhè yī cì bù guǎn yòng 。

然而这一次不管用。

But this didn't work.

xiù cái suī rán wéi rén chǔ shì de jīng yàn qiǎn bó ， pí qì què shì pǒ wèi jué jiàng de ， shǔ yú nà zhǒng rèn zhǔn le sǐ lǐ ， jiǔ tóu niú dōu lā bù huí lái de xìng gé 。

秀才虽然为人处事的经验浅薄，脾气却是颇为倔强的，属于那种认准了死理，九头牛都拉不回来的性格。

Although the scholar lacked experience in dealing with people, his stubbornness was evident. He was of a nature that wouldn’t budge, no matter how many bulls were used to pull him back.

liǎng rén hǎo shuō dǎi shuō ， hóng liǎn hēi liǎn ， wēi bī lì yòu ， yì diǎn dōu méi yǒu xiào guǒ 。

两人好说歹说，红脸黑脸，威逼利诱，一点都没有效果。

After much persuasion and threats, they finally approached a pavilion. The elderly man waved his sleeve, and a token flew out, entering the door which creaked open.

nà huī páo xiū shì jīng nù zhī yú ， yě zhī dào zhè yī cì ， kǒng pà shì hū yōu bù guò qù ， guān jiàn zài yú ， nà jiàn bǎo wù ， bì xū xiù cái zì jǐ jiāo chū lái cái yǒu xiào guǒ ， fǒu zé guāng píng zì jǐ ， méi yǒu xuè mài de bāng zhù ， bù kě néng jiě kāi tā xiān zǔ ， zài shàng miàn suǒ xià fēng yìn de 。

那灰袍修士惊怒之余，也知道这一次，恐怕是忽悠不过去，关键在于，那件宝物，必须秀才自己交出来才有效果，否则光凭自己，没有血脉的帮助，不可能解开他先祖，在上面所下封印的。

The three entered one after another. Lin Xuan followed closely behind without any hesitation.

“ zhè xiǎo zi ， yī huì er dé dào bǎo wù ， lǎo fū kě bù huì jiāng nǐ fàng guò ， yào ràng nǐ qiú shēng bù néng ， qiú sǐ bù dé 。”

“这小子，一会儿得到宝物，老夫可不会将你放过，要让你求生不能，求死不得。”

Before them lay an expansive hall, magnificently decorated, stretching over a thousand feet in width.

huī páo lǎo zhě è hěn hěn de xiǎng zhe ， biǎo miàn shàng ， què lù chū yī fù chàng rán zhī sè ， tàn le kǒu qì ：“ hǎo ， dào yǒu jì rán jiān chí ， lǎo fū xiān dài nǐ kàn kàn rén ， yě wú bù kě 。”

灰袍老者恶狠狠的想着，表面上，却露出一副怅然之色，叹了口气：“好，道友既然坚持，老夫先带你看看人，也无不可。”

To their sides were winding corridors leading to four directions.

“ rú cǐ duō xiè qián bèi le 。” xiù cái liǎn shàng lù chū dà xǐ zhī sè ：“ nín fàng xīn ， wǎn bèi yí dìng huì duì xiàn chéng nuò 。”

“如此多谢前辈了。”秀才脸上露出大喜之色：“您放心，晚辈一定会兑现承诺。”

Lin Xuan released his spirit sense and passed through the corridors, revealing hundreds of small courtyards. Each contained a female cultivator.

“ hēng 。”

“哼。”

Their appearances varied, but all were strikingly beautiful.

huī páo lǎo zhě liǎn shàng mǎn shì lěng dàn zhī sè ， zhuǎn shēn shùn zhe suì shí xiǎo lù xiàng qián miàn zǒu qù le 。

灰袍老者脸上满是冷淡之色，转身顺着碎石小路像前面走去了。

These women had considerable cultivation levels, mostly at the Yuan婴 stage, with a few at the Separation stage as well. Lin Xuan even spotted five cultivators in the late Separation stage.

xiù cái yǔ jīng shòu hàn zi zì rán bù gǎn yǒu hé dài màn zhī yì ， lián máng jǐn gēn le shàng qù 。

秀才与精瘦汉子自然不敢有何怠慢之意，连忙紧跟了上去。

But regardless of their power, they were all imprisoned here, their magical energy sealed away, unable to sense the primordial qi of heaven and earth. Thus, these women were no different from ordinary mortal girls.

guò le yuè yī zhǎn chá de gōng fu ， qī wān bā guǎi zhī hòu ， yī dòng gé lóu zhōng yú chū xiàn zài yǎn qián le 。

过了越一盏茶的功夫，七弯八拐之后，一栋阁楼终于出现在眼前了。

These courtyards served as cages; even with wings, they couldn't escape.

nà gé lóu huá měi zhuàng lì ， gāo qī bā zhàng yǒu yú 。

那阁楼华美壮丽，高七八丈有余。

Suddenly, Lin Xuan's pupils narrowed as he spotted a familiar figure. Though two hundred years had passed, his keen eyesight as an cultivator immediately recognized the Red Leaf Fairy.

“ nǐ men xiàn zài yào jǐn gēn zhe lǎo fū ， yī bù dōu bù néng tà cuò ， zhè lǐ kě shì yǒu bù shǎo jìn zhì zǔ gé ， lǐ lì àn lǐ shè zhe ， yǒu yī xiē ， lián wǒ dōu bìng bù xiǎo de 。” huī páo xiū shì níng zhòng de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ 。

“你们现在要紧跟着老夫，一步都不能踏错，这里可是有不少禁制阻隔，里丽暗里设着，有一些，连我都并不晓得。”灰袍修士凝重的声音传入耳朵。

This girl was indeed brought here.

“ shì ！”

“是！”

Lin Xuan sighed but didn’t rush to act. Saving her wasn’t urgent; what interested him were the family treasures mentioned in their deal.

liǎng rén tīng le ， xīn zhōng dà gǎn jiè jù ， máng bǐng qì níng xī ， biàn dé gèng jiā de xiǎo xīn yì yì 。

两人听了，心中大感戒惧，忙屏气凝息，变得更加的小心翼翼。

Guided by the elderly man in gray robes, they soon arrived at a courtyard on the left.

bìng wèi chū cuò ， hěn kuài sān rén jiù lái dào gé lóu de miàn qián le ， lǎo zhě xiù páo yī fú ， yī kuài lìng pái fēi lüè ér chū ， guāng shù mò rù ， nà mén zhī ya yī shēng dǎ kāi le 。

并未出错，很快三人就来到阁楼的面前了，老者袖袍一拂，一块令牌飞掠而出，光束没入，那门吱呀一声打开了。

"Your little sister is kept here."

sān rén yú guàn ér rù ， lín xuān dāng rán yě bú huì kè qì shén me ， jǐn gēn zài shēn hòu le 。

三人鱼贯而入，林轩当然也不会客气什么，紧跟在身后了。

The old man took out a token and removed the seals around the courtyard. The door opened, revealing a slender woman.

yǎn qián huò rán kāi lǎng ， shǒu xiān yìng rù yǎn lián de shì yí gè dà tīng ， bù zhì dé huá lì yǐ jí ， zú yǒu qiān zhàng guǎng de yàng zi 。

眼前豁然开朗，首先映入眼帘的是一个大厅，布置得华丽以极，足有千丈广的样子。

She appeared to be about ten years old, with an attractive face, but fear was etched across her features. Upon seeing who stood outside, she turned from terror to joy and surprise.

ér zài dà tīng zhōu cè ， zé shì tōng xiàng sì miàn de huí láng qū zhé 。

而在大厅周侧，则是通向四面的回廊曲折。

"Brother... Brother, you, how did you end up here?" Snow Fairy gaped in disbelief, never expecting to see her fiancé here.

lín xuān jiāng shén shí fàng chū ， chuān guò zhè xiē huí láng ， yí gè gè dú lì de xiǎo yuàn yìng rù yǎn lián ， jū rán yǒu shù bǎi zhī duō ， měi zuò yuàn luò lǐ miàn ， dōu guān yā zhe yī míng nǚ xiū xiān zhě 。

林轩将神识放出，穿过这些回廊，一个个独立的小院映入眼帘，居然有数百之多，每座院落里面，都关押着一名女修仙者。

It was common knowledge that the vice palace master had used a female disciple’s cauldron. Her fear and despair were understandable as an advanced cultivator; she knew what fate awaited those in the cauldrons. However, with her magical energy sealed away, she couldn’t fight back at all.

láng huán féi shòu ， róng mào gè bù xiāng tóng ， dàn róng mào dōu huán qīng lì 。

琅嬛肥瘦，容貌各不相同，但容貌都还清丽。

Despair turned to hope when she saw Brother here.

zhè xiē nǚ zǐ ， xiū wèi dōu bù cuò ， yǐ yuán yīng xiū shì jū duō ， dàn lǐ miàn yě bù fá lí hé ， lín xuān shèn zhì fā xiàn le wǔ míng lí hé hòu qī de xiū xiān zhě 。

这些女子，修为都不错，以元婴修士居多，但里面也不乏离合，林轩甚至发现了五名离合后期的修仙者。

"Little Sister, you’ve suffered enough. I came to save you."

dàn bù guǎn shén tōng jìng jiè rú hé ， cǐ shí cǐ kè ， tā men quán dōu shēn xiàn líng yǔ le ， hún shēn de fǎ lì bèi jìn gù ， gèng bú yào shuō gǎn yìng tiān dì yuán qì le ， rú cǐ yī lái ， zhè xiē nǚ zǐ ， yě jiù yǔ pǔ tōng de fán rén shào nǚ ， méi yǒu shén me bù tóng 。

但不管神通境界如何，此时此刻，她们全都身陷囹圄了，浑身的法力被禁锢，更不要说感应天地元气了，如此一来，这些女子，也就与普通的凡人少女，没有什么不同。

Overjoyed, the scholar rushed forward and grasped his little sister’s hand, tears streaming down his face from excitement.

nà xiǎo yuàn jiù shì láo lóng ， tā men chā chì yě xiū xiǎng fēi chū lóng zhōng 。

那小院就是牢笼，她们插翅也休想飞出笼中。

Lin Xuan was speechless; an advanced cultivator acting so emotionally was something he had never seen before.

tū rán ， lín xuān tóng kǒng wēi suō ， yī shú xī de shēn yǐng jìn rù dào tā de shì xiàn zhōng ， suī xiāng gé liǎng bǎi nián ， dàn yǐ xiū xiān zhě guò mù bù wàng de shén tōng ， lín xuān zì rán hái shì yī yǎn jiù kě yǐ jiāng hóng yè xiān zi rèn chū lái de 。

突然，林轩瞳孔微缩，一熟悉的身影进入到他的视线中，虽相隔两百年，但以修仙者过目不忘的神通，林轩自然还是一眼就可以将红叶仙子认出来的。

Compared to Snow Fairy, who remained calm despite her excitement. After a moment, she regained composure: "Brother, how did you get here and what plan do you have to save me?"

zhè yā tou guǒ rán bèi dài dào le cǐ chù 。

这丫头果然被带到了此处。

"I won’t rush you, Little Sister. I asked someone to help us," the scholar said.

lín xuān tàn le kǒu qì ， què bìng méi yǒu máng zhe chū shǒu ， yào jiù rén bù jí ， lín xuān duì tā men jiāo yì zhōng suǒ shuō de chuán jiā bǎo hěn gǎn xìng qù 。

林轩叹了口气，却并没有忙着出手，要救人不急，林轩对他们交易中所说的传家宝很感兴趣。

"Who?" The woman’s eyes showed hesitation.

yóu huī páo lǎo zhě dài lù ， hěn kuài tā men jiù lái dào le zuǒ shǒu biān de yí gè yuàn luò zhī zhōng 。

由灰袍老者带路，很快他们就来到了左手边的一个院落之中。

"Enough of this emotional talk for now. We don’t have time to dawdle; we’re in a dangerous place," the elderly man in gray robes said coldly. "But your point is valid."

“ nǐ shī mèi jiù guān zài cǐ chù 。”

“你师妹就关在此处。”

After nodding, his heart flew to her after seeing her.

nà lǎo zhě yī biān shuō ， yī biān qǔ chū lìng fú ， jiāng yuàn luò sì zhōu de jìn zhì jiě chú ， mén dǎ kāi ， yī shēn cái xiū cháng de nǚ zǐ yìng rù yǎn lián 。

那老者一边说，一边取出令符，将院落四周的禁制解除，门打开，一身材修长的女子映入眼帘。

"Now that you’ve seen each other, shouldn’t you fulfill your promise?"

kàn shàng qù dà yuē shí suì nián jì ， róng mào pǒ wèi piào liàng kě xǐ ， rán ér liǎn shàng mǎn shì kǒng jù ， kě kàn qīng chǔ wài miàn rén de róng mào zhī hòu ， yòu biàn wèi le dà xǐ yǔ jīng qí 。

看上去大约十岁年纪，容貌颇为漂亮可喜，然而脸上满是恐惧，可看清楚外面人的容貌之后，又变为了大喜与惊奇。

"Alright."

“ shī …… shī gē ， nǐ ， nǐ zěn me zài zhè lǐ ？” xuě xiān zi chēng mù jié shé ， zuò mèng yě méi yǒu xiǎng dào huì zài cǐ dì kàn jiàn wèi hūn fū 。

“师……师哥，你，你怎么在这里？”雪仙子瞠目结舌，做梦也没有想到会在此地看见未婚夫。

Though the scholar was stubborn, he was straightforward. He waved his sleeve, and golden light flashed as an jade box appeared beside him.

guān yú fù gōng zhǔ yòng běn mén nǚ dì zi zuò dǐng lú ， gōng nèi zǎo jiù yǒu chuán yán le ， dāng tā bèi zhuā dào cǐ chù ， xīn zhōng de hài pà yǔ jué wàng shì kě xiǎng ér zhī de ， bì jìng dǐng lú xià chǎng rú hé ， zuò wéi yuán yīng qī xiū xiān zhě ， tā qǐ huì xīn zhōng méi shù ， piān piān fǎ lì bèi jìn gù ， sī háo fǎn kàng de yú dì yě wú 。

关于副宫主用本门女弟子座鼎炉，宫内早就有传言了，当她被抓到此处，心中的害怕与绝望是可想而知的，毕竟鼎炉下场如何，作为元婴期修仙者，她岂会心中没数，偏偏法力被禁锢，丝毫反抗的余地也无。

It bore several seals, but these were peculiar—blood-red in color.

yuán běn jué wàng le ， méi xiǎng dào què zài zhè láo lóng zhī dì jiàn dào le shī gē 。

原本绝望了，没想到却在这牢笼之地见到了师哥。

"This isn’t a family treasure passed down by our ancestors," Snow Fairy exclaimed in shock. "Are you using this to get someone to save me?"

“ shī mèi ， nǐ shòu kǔ le ， wèi xiōng dāng rán shì lái jiù nǐ de 。”

“师妹，妳受苦了，为兄当然是来救妳的。”
