wǔ gè xiǎo bù diǎn nǐ kàn wǒ 、 wǒ kàn nǐ 。
五个小不点你看我、我看你。
Five little kids looked at each other.
zuì zhōng ， hái shì yí gè tóu fà yǒu diǎn kū huáng de xiǎo nán hái zhàn le chū lái ， qiè shēng shuō dào ：“ gǒu zi shì bèi huài rén nòng chéng zhè yàng de 。”
最终，还是一个头发有点枯黄的小男孩站了出来，怯声说道：“狗子是被坏人弄成这样的。”
Finally, a slightly yellow-haired boy stepped forward and said timidly, "Dogzi was made this way by bad people."
“ chéng lǐ de fù guì rén jiā ， dū huì yǎng zhè zhǒng 【 rén quǎn 】。”
“城里的富贵人家，都会养这种【人犬】。”
"Rich families in the city keep these [human dogs]."
“ rén quǎn bǐ yì bān de gǒu gèng tīng huà ， gèng cōng míng ， lì qì yě gèng dà 。”
“人犬比一般的狗更听话，更聪明，力气也更大。”
"They are more obedient, smarter, and stronger than regular dogs."
“ suǒ yǐ shí fēn shòu huān yíng 。”
“所以十分受欢迎。”
"So they are very popular."
“ biàn chéng rén quǎn yào jīng guò xiān fǎ zhuǎn huà ， qī jiān huì shí fēn tòng kǔ 。”
“变成人犬要经过仙法转化，期间会十分痛苦。”
"Becoming a human dog requires transformation through immortal techniques. It's extremely painful during the process."
“ yào shì chēng bù guò ， jiù huì shī qù lǐ zhì ， biàn dé fēng fēng diān diān de 。”
“要是撑不过，就会失去理智，变得疯疯癫癫的。”
"If you can't endure it, you'll lose your mind and become crazy."
“ rán hòu huì bèi yí qì ， zì shēng zì miè 。”
“然后会被遗弃，自生自灭。”
"Then you will be abandoned to die on your own."
xiǎo nán hái suī rán nián jì xiǎo ， dàn shì shuō huà què tiáo lǐ qīng xī 。
小男孩虽然年纪小，但是说话却条理清晰。
Although the boy was young, his speech was clear.
“ xiān fǎ ……” lǐ fán xīn zhōng lěng hēng yī shēng 。
“仙法……”李凡心中冷哼一声。
"Immortal techniques..." Li Fan coldly snorted in his heart.
zài zhè gǒu zi shēn shàng ， tā dǎo shì wán quán kàn bù chū yǒu líng lì zuò yòng de hén jì 。
在这狗子身上，他倒是完全看不出有灵力作用的痕迹。
He couldn’t see any signs of spiritual energy on this dog.
zhǐ shì cū bào de jiāng gǒu de sì zhī hé rén shēn féng hé zài yì qǐ 。
只是粗暴的将狗的四肢和人身缝合在一起。
It had just roughly sewn together a dog's limbs with human body parts.
suǒ wèi “ xiān fǎ ”， bù guò shì hǒng piàn fán rén de shuō cí bà le 。
所谓“仙法”，不过是哄骗凡人的说辞罢了。
So-called "immortal techniques" were merely tricks to deceive ordinary people.
cǐ zhǒng shǒu duàn ， ruò shì zhāng shī xiōng kàn le ， dìng rán yào nù chì yī shēng “ xié mó wài dào ， rén rén dé ér zhū zhī ”。
此种手段，若是章师兄看了，定然要怒斥一声“邪魔外道，人人得而诛之”。
If Brother Zhang saw such a method, he would surely denounce it as evil and exorcise it.
“ gǒu zi jiù shì zāo dào pāo qì de cán cì pǐn 。 rú guǒ bú shì xiǎo bái ……”
“狗子就是遭到抛弃的残次品。如果不是小白……”
"This Dogzi is a defective product that was discarded. If not for Little White..."
huáng fā xiǎo nán hái zhèng shuō zhe ， què bèi rén cóng hòu miàn hěn hěn tī le yī xià 。
黄发小男孩正说着，却被人从后面狠狠踢了一下。
The yellow-haired boy continued speaking but was kicked hard from behind by someone.
pāi le pāi pì gǔ ， shén qíng yǒu xiē gān gà 。
拍了拍屁股，神情有些尴尬。
He patted his bottom, looking somewhat embarrassed.
xiǎo nán hái lián máng gǎi kǒu dào ：“ rú guǒ bú shì 【 bái xiān shēng 】 chū shǒu wèi tā yī zhì ， kǒng pà gǒu zi zǎo jiù méi mìng le 。”
小男孩连忙改口道：“如果不是【白先生】出手为他医治，恐怕狗子早就没命了。”
The boy quickly changed his words, saying, "If not for [Mr. Bai] treating him, Dogzi would have died long ago."
lǐ fán shén sè yī dòng 。
李凡神色一动。
Li Fan's expression changed.
bái xiān shēng ？
白先生？
"Mr. Bai?"
sì hū zhī qián zài zhè yǔn xiān jìng zhōng tīng guò ？
似乎之前在这陨仙境中听过？
It seemed he had heard of this person before in the Realm of Fallen Stars?
shí hǎi zhōng lán sè jīng tǐ guāng huá liú zhuǎn ， chà nà jiān ， jiù cóng jì yì shēn chù diào chū le xiāng guān xìn xī 。
识海中蓝色晶体光华流转，刹那间，就从记忆深处调出了相关信息。
Blue crystal light flashed in his mind as he instantly recalled relevant information from his memories.
zài dé dào 《 zǐ xiāo guān hún shù 》 de nà cì jīng lì lǐ ， zhāng qiān mò hé sòng hé sòng liǎng wèi xiū shì dà zhàn guò hòu ， yǐ jīng biàn chéng yī dì fèi xū de níng yuǎn chéng zhōng ， tū rán mào chū lái yī xiē shí lái suì de qǐ gài yòu tóng ， zài zhòng rén jué wàng zhōng fā chū hū hǎn 。
在得到《紫霄观魂术》的那次经历里，章阡陌和宋和颂两位修士大战过后，已经变成一地废墟的宁远城中，突然冒出来一些十来岁的乞丐幼童，在众人绝望中发出呼喊。
During an experience where he obtained the Purple Mansion Soul Technique, Chapter Qianmo and Brother Song HuaSong fought a fierce battle after which Ningyuan City was reduced to ruins. Suddenly, some ten-year-old beggar children appeared, calling out hope amidst despair for everyone.
huàn qǐ zhòng rén shēng cún de xī wàng ， bìng qiě hái néng yǒu tiáo bù wěn de zǔ zhī jiù yuán 。
唤起众人生存的希望，并且还能有条不紊的组织救援。
They followed Mr. Bai's commands, reviving people's will to live and organizing rescue efforts in an orderly manner.
ér tā men tīng cóng de ， jiù shì zhè wèi 【 bái xiān shēng 】 de mìng lìng 。
而他们听从的，就是这位【白先生】的命令。
Li Fan became interested and asked, "Who is Mr. Bai?"
lǐ fán bù jīn bèi gōu qǐ le xìng qù ， dāng jí wèn dào ：“ bái xiān shēng shì shuí ？”
李凡不禁被勾起了兴趣，当即问道：“白先生是谁？”
The mention of Mr. Bai excited the yellow-haired boy.
yī tí jí bái xiān shēng ， huáng fā xiǎo nán hái jiù biàn dé yǒu xiē xīng fèn 。
一提及白先生，黄发小男孩就变得有些兴奋。
He opened up, saying, "Mr. Bai is the best good person in this world!"
dǎ kāi le huà xiá zi ， tāo tiān bù jué de shuō dào ：“ bái xiān shēng shì zhè ge shì jiè shàng zuì hǎo de dà hǎo rén ！”
打开了话匣子，滔天不绝的说道：“白先生是这个世界上最好的大好人！”
"He’s also the most skilled doctor in the world!"
“ yě shì zhè ge shì jiè shàng yī shù zuì lì hài de rén ！”
“也是这个世界上医术最厉害的人！”
"And he's the prettiest person in the world!"
“ hái shì zhè ge shì jiè shàng zuì hǎo kàn de rén ！”
“还是这个世界上最好看的人！”
Behind him, other children chimed in, "Mr. Bai is the kindest person in the world!"
tā shēn hòu de jǐ wèi xiǎo hái zi yě fēn fēn chū yán fù hè ：“ bái xiān shēng shì shì jiè shàng shuō huà zuì wēn róu de rén ！”
他身后的几位小孩子也纷纷出言附和：“白先生是世界上说话最温柔的人！”
"He’s the smartest person in the world!"
“ tā hái shì shì jiè shàng zuì cōng míng de rén ！”
“他还是世界上最聪明的人！”
...
……
……
Li Fan found their praise amusing.
lǐ fán tīng zhe hái zi men zàn měi zhī cí yì yú yán biǎo de huà yǔ ， bù jīn jué de yǒu xiē hǎo xiào 。
李凡听着孩子们赞美之词溢于言表的话语，不禁觉得有些好笑。
To these children, this small Ningyuan City might be the whole world.
zài zhè xiē hái tóng yǎn zhōng ， kě néng zhè yī zuò xiǎo xiǎo de níng yuǎn chéng ， jiù shì zhěng gè shì jiè ba 。
在这些孩童眼中，可能这一座小小的宁远城，就是整个世界吧。
But it was clear that Mr. Bai had extraordinary abilities and treated them very well.
bù guò yě néng kàn chū ， zhè wèi bái xiān shēng sì hū dí què yǒu qí fēi fán zhī chù ， ér qiě duì dài hái zi men jí hǎo 。
不过也能看出，这位白先生似乎的确有其非凡之处，而且对待孩子们极好。
Could such a figure be the owner of this residual time-space?
zhè yàng yī wèi rén wù ， huì bú huì shì cǐ fāng yí niàn shí kōng de zhǔ rén ne ？
这样一位人物，会不会是此方遗念时空的主人呢？
Li Fan became interested.
lǐ fán lái le xìng qù 。
李凡来了兴趣。
"Mr. Bai is truly remarkable! Can you introduce me to him?" Li Fan asked with a smile.
“ zhè wèi bái xiān shēng kě zhēn shì liǎo bù qǐ ！ néng bù néng wèi wǒ yǐn jiàn yī xià ？” lǐ fán wēi xiào zhe wèn dào 。
“这位白先生可真是了不起！能不能为我引荐一下？”李凡微笑着问道。
The five children immediately fell silent.
shà shí jiān ， wǔ wèi xiǎo hái quán dōu ān jìng le xià lái 。
霎时间，五位小孩全都安静了下来。
They unconsciously took a step back, looking at Li Fan with wary eyes as if he was a villain.
tā men xià yì shí de cháo hòu tuì le yī bù ， yòng jǐng tì de yǎn shén dǎ liàng zhe lǐ fán 。
他们下意识的朝后退了一步，用警惕的眼神打量着李凡。
Li Fan chuckled, "Don't be afraid of me. I'm just like Mr. Bai, a good person."
fǎng fú lǐ fán shì gè tú móu bù guǐ de huài rén shì de 。
仿佛李凡是个图谋不轨的坏人似的。
"Just wanting to meet him."
lǐ fán shěn rán yī xiào ：“ bù yòng pà wǒ ， wǒ gēn nǐ men de bái xiān shēng yī yàng ， yě shì gè hǎo rén 。”
李凡哂然一笑：“不用怕我，我跟你们的白先生一样，也是个好人。”
After exchanging glances, the yellow-haired boy spoke up, "Actually, we don’t know where Mr. Bai lives."
“ zhǐ bù guò xiǎng jiàn yī jiàn tā ér yǐ 。”
“只不过想见一见他而已。”
"We live in a small temple on the eastern side of the city. Mr. Bai often visits us."
hái zi men zài cì yòng yǎn shén jiāo liú le yī fān ， zuì zhōng hái shì huáng fā xiǎo nán hái chū shēng 。
孩子们再次用眼神交流了一番，最终还是黄发小男孩出声。
"If you want to see Mr. Bai, wait at the temple."
“ qí shí wǒ men yě bù zhī dào bái xiān shēng zhù zài nǎ lǐ 。”
“其实我们也不知道白先生住在哪里。”
Li Fan narrowed his eyes and made a judgment.
“ wǒ men shēng huó zài chéng dōng xiǎo miào lǐ ， bái xiān shēng huì jīng cháng lái kàn wǒ men 。”
“我们生活在城东小庙里，白先生会经常来看我们。”
The yellow-haired boy had not lied.
“ nǐ rú guǒ xiǎng jiàn bái xiān shēng ， kě yǐ zài xiǎo miào lǐ děng děng 。”
“你如果想见白先生，可以在小庙里等等。”
"Lead the way!"
lǐ fán yǎn jīng wēi mī ， zuò le pàn duàn 。
李凡眼睛微眯，做了判断。
Throwing the still sleeping dog into their hands, Li Fan said sternly.
huáng fā xiǎo nán hái méi yǒu shuō huǎng 。
黄发小男孩没有说谎。
The yellow-haired boy took a look at the dog, relieved that it was just unconscious. He confirmed that Li Fan wasn’t a big evil person before truly relaxing.
“ dài lù ba ！”
“带路吧！”
Following their lead, Li Fan arrived at a small temple on the eastern side of Ningyuan City.
bǎ hái zài chén shuì zhōng de gǒu zi rēng gěi le jǐ rén ， lǐ fán chén shēng shuō dào 。
把还在沉睡中的狗子扔给了几人，李凡沉声说道。
It seemed to be an abandoned temple.
huáng fā xiǎo nán hái jiē guò gǒu zi yī kàn ， guǒ rán zhǐ shì hūn shuì guò qù ， dāng xià sōng le yì kǒu qì 。
黄发小男孩接过狗子一看，果然只是昏睡过去，当下松了一口气。
The stone statue inside was already broken and only a small piece remained.
què rèn le lǐ fán bú shì shén me dà è rén ， tā cái zhēn zhèng fàng xīn xià lái 。
确认了李凡不是什么大恶人，他才真正放心下来。
More than ten children, both boys and girls, wearing tattered clothes were in the temple. They looked frail but had spirit in their eyes.
yú shì ， zài tā men de dài lǐng xià ， lǐ fán lái dào le níng yuǎn chéng dōng de yī zuò xiǎo miào nèi 。
于是，在他们的带领下，李凡来到了宁远城东的一座小庙内。
Seeing the yellow-haired boy and his companions return, they gathered around.
sì hū shì yī zuò fèi qì de miào yǔ 。
似乎是一座废弃的庙宇。
"Lu Ya, who is this uncle?" one child asked.
gòng fèng de shí xiàng zǎo yǐ jīng cán pò bù kān ， zhǐ shèng xià le yī xiǎo jié cán yú 。
供奉的石像早已经残破不堪，只剩下了一小截残余。
"Why did you come back empty-handed? Did you not get any food?"
xiǎo miào lǐ hái yǒu zhe shí duō míng tóng yàng chuān zhe pò pò làn làn de xiǎo hái ， yǒu nán yǒu nǚ 。
小庙里还有着十多名同样穿着破破烂烂的小孩，有男有女。
"What happened to Dogzi!"
suī shuō dōu bǐ jiào shòu ruò ， dàn shì yí gè gè dōu què hěn yǒu jīng shén ， yǎn zhōng dū yǒu guāng máng zài shǎn shuò 。
虽说都比较瘦弱，但是一个个都却很有精神，眼中都有光芒在闪烁。
Lu Ya explained everything to everyone.
kàn jiàn huáng fā xiǎo nán hái děng wǔ rén huí lái ， fēn fēn wéi le shàng lái 。
看见黄发小男孩等五人回来，纷纷围了上来。
Li Fan understood why Lu Ya and the others had followed him. They were just curious about a stranger and wanted to see if he could bring them some money for food.
qī zuǐ bā shé dào ：“ lù yá ， zhè wèi dà shū shì shuí ya ？”
七嘴八舌道：“陆涯，这位大叔是谁呀？”
There weren't only this group; several more hadn’t returned yet.
“ zěn me kōng shǒu huí lái le ， zhè cì méi yǒu gǎo dào chī de a ！”
“怎么空手回来了，这次没有搞到吃的啊！”
The children in the temple eyed Li Fan suspiciously but didn’t approach him.
“ gǒu zi ！ gǒu zi zěn me le ！”
“狗子！狗子怎么了！”
Li Fan was too busy waiting for Mr. Bai, so he paid no mind to the little devils and waited by the side.
huáng fā lù yá yú shì wèi dà huǒ jiě shì qǐ lái 。
黄发陆涯于是为大伙解释起来。
Sure enough, not long after, Brother Zhang's thunderous voice echoed over Ningyuan City.
lǐ fán yě míng bái le wèi shén me lù yá tā men wǔ gè ， huì mò míng qí miào de gēn zhe zì jǐ 。
李凡也明白了为什么陆涯他们五个，会莫名其妙的跟着自己。
"Evil and heretics! You are asking for death!"
wú fēi shì kàn zì jǐ yǎn shēng ， shì gè wài lái rén ， xiǎng cóng zì jǐ shēn shàng shùn diǎn yín qián ， mǎi diǎn chī de bà le 。
无非是看自己眼生，是个外来人，想从自己身上顺点银钱，买点吃的罢了。
Purple lightning shone in the sky, representing divine authority.
xiàng lù yá zhè bān de ， hái bù zhǐ yī zǔ 。
向陆涯这般的，还不止一组。
"Cultivation friends, act quickly!" This was Chu Liang’s voice.
zhǐ shì yǒu xiē xiàn zài dōu hái méi yǒu huí lái 。
只是有些现在都还没有回来。
The battle resumed.
xiǎo miào lǐ de hái tóng ， dōu yòng jǐng tì hé hǎo qí de yǎn guāng dǎ liàng zhe lǐ fán 。
小庙里的孩童，都用警惕和好奇的眼光打量着李凡。
Li Fan, knowing Brother Zhang's strength, didn’t pay much attention this time. Instead, he watched the children inside the temple with interest.
bù guò méi yǒu shàng qián lái dā shàn de 。
不过没有上前来搭讪的。
"Quick! Quick! Hide in the cellar!"
lǐ fán yě lǎn de gēn yī qún xiǎo guǐ jì jiào ， zhǐ shì dài zài yī páng ， děng zhe zhè wèi bái xiān shēng 。
李凡也懒得跟一群小鬼计较，只是待在一旁，等着这位白先生。
Lu Ya, looking pale, urgently commanded as they saw the strange scene in the sky.
rú guǒ bù chū yì liào de huà ， děng zhāng shī xiōng dòng qǐ shǒu lái ， níng yuǎn chéng zài liǎng wèi xiū shì shǒu xià biàn zuò yī piàn fèi xū de shí hòu 。
如果不出意料的话，等章师兄动起手来，宁远城在两位修士手下变作一片废墟的时候。
The children seemed very familiar with hiding.
bái xiān shēng jiù huì xiàn shēn le 。
白先生就会现身了。
They pushed aside the small stone statue to reveal a hole and hurriedly entered it.
guò le xiǎo bàn tiān shí guāng ， lǐ fán jiàn shí jiān chà bù duō le ， biàn gěi zhāng shī xiōng chuán qù yī dào xùn xī 。
过了小半天时光，李凡见时间差不多了，便给章师兄传去一道讯息。
"Uncle, you should hide too!"
“ xiǎo xīn sòng guǎn shì ……”
“小心宋管事……”
When only Lu Ya was left in the temple, he turned around and said to Li Fan, "It's dangerous outside as immortals are fighting. You don’t need to worry about me."
suí hòu jìng děng hòu xù 。
随后静等后续。
Li Fan smiled slightly, "Don't worry about me, go down and take cover first."
guǒ bù qí rán ， mò guò duō jiǔ ， zhāng shī xiōng rú tóng zhà léi bān de nù hè shēng ， biàn zài níng yuǎn chéng shàng kōng xiǎng qǐ 。
果不其然，没过多久，章师兄如同炸雷般的怒喝声，便在宁远城上空响起。
Lu Ya hesitated for a moment before nodding and disappearing into the hole.
“ xié mó wài dào ！ zhǎo sǐ ！”
“邪魔外道！找死！”
The stone statue slowly returned to its original position, covering the entrance.
zǐ sè léi tíng ， dài biǎo zhe huáng huáng tiān wēi ， shǎn yào zài tiān mù zhī shàng 。
紫色雷霆，代表着煌煌天威，闪耀在天幕之上。
Only then did Li Fan approach the statue, his expression mysterious.
“ gè wèi dào yǒu ， sù sù dòng shǒu ！” zhè shì chǔ liáng de shēng yīn 。
“各位道友，速速动手！”这是楚良的声音。
When those children pushed aside the statue and revealed the hidden room below, Li Fan was surprised as well.
zhàn dòu zài cì dǎ xiǎng 。
战斗再次打响。
"This is interesting. This seemingly ordinary statue can actually shield my divine sense?"
zhī dào zhāng shī xiōng shí lì de lǐ fán ， bìng méi yǒu cǐ cì guò duō de guān zhù 。
知道章师兄实力的李凡，并没有此次过多的关注。
He gently stroked the old stone statue, feeling spiritual energy surge within him.
Five little kids looked at each other.
Finally, a slightly yellow-haired boy stepped forward and said timidly, "Dogzi was made this way by bad people."
"Rich families in the city keep these [human dogs]."
"They are more obedient, smarter, and stronger than regular dogs."
"So they are very popular."
"Becoming a human dog requires transformation through immortal techniques. It's extremely painful during the process."
"If you can't endure it, you'll lose your mind and become crazy."
"Then you will be abandoned to die on your own."
Although the boy was young, his speech was clear.
"Immortal techniques..." Li Fan coldly snorted in his heart.
He couldn’t see any signs of spiritual energy on this dog.
It had just roughly sewn together a dog's limbs with human body parts.
So-called "immortal techniques" were merely tricks to deceive ordinary people.
