剑术大师走进帐篷,你示意他坐到桌子对面。他坐得如此迟缓无力,你几乎担心,待会儿再站起来要花两倍工夫。他双手交握,把胳膊肘撑在桌上,哼着气挪来挪去,仿佛连什么也不做都找不到舒坦的姿势。他嘴唇干裂,面容枯槁,头上布满老人斑,连鼻边和耳边的毛发也白了。
只要是剑术大师来找你,你总有时间。你问他想谈什么。
"一个拿钱挥剑的人说这种话,听起来可能古怪,不过还是得说,不然晚上睡不踏实。我就直说了:我已经不是你当初雇来的那个人了。你知道,我也知道。有些弟兄也知道,只是他们都是好人,肯给我留体面。"
你心里赞同,却没有点头,只问他究竟想说什么。
"我想把工钱降一降。别急着说不,你用不着哄我。就这么定了。反正我也不缺钱。省下来的克朗,可以给弟兄们添置装备,或是多发点军饷。老天知道,年轻人手头总能多用上一两枚。"
你还没来得及开口,他竟以惊人的利落劲儿站了起来,点点头,促狭地一笑,随后故意扯开嗓门。
"我赞成您的决定,团长!这工钱,早该给我降了!"
他几乎刚来就走。望着他离开帐篷,你忍不住笑出了声。

Swordmaster剑术大师 enters your tent. You wave him to the chair across your table. He sits so slowly and feebly that you fear him standing back up will take twice as long. The man clasps his hands together and elbows his arms onto the table, grunting and shifting, finding little comfort even in doing nothing at all. His lips are dry, his face withered. Liver spots mottle his head and even the hairs about his nose and ears are grey.
You always have time for Swordmaster剑术大师 so you ask what it is he wishes to speak about.
"This might sound peculiar coming from a blade for hire, but I think it needs saying anyway, and it'd make me sleep better at night. I'll be forward with you: I am not the man you hired so long ago. You know that. I know that. Some of the men know it, but they're respectful as good men are."
You agree, but don't nod. Instead, you ask what the man is getting at.
"I wish to lower my wage. Now don't be saying no, you don't have to bullshit me. I'll take a cut. Money's never been an issue anyhow. Those crowns could be used to help arm the men or even pay them better. God knows a young man could always use an extra crown or two."
Before you say another word, the man springs to his feet with surprising speed. He nods and grins playfully before yelling loudly.
"I agree with your decision, good sir. I could use a paycut!"
You laugh as the man leaves your tent almost as soon as he'd come in.
