Chapter 9: Chess and Swords
The building within the building, the deepest and most hidden place.
It seemed to be a dark tunnel, and it was also like a dark cave, and there was not a trace of light in it.
There was a man sitting at a desk, and in this environment where he couldn't see his fingers, he couldn't see his face clearly, and he didn't know his size.
If there was light here, he wouldn't be able to see his face clearly, because he still had a mask on his face. In fact, in detail, it should be half a mask. What's even more strange is that this half of the mask is constantly changing, sometimes on the left half of its face, sometimes on the right half of its face.
Both faces are exquisite, but if they are combined, it is impossible to tell that they are one face.
Heaven and earth are no more than the upper and lower eyes, mountains are no more than the index finger high, rivers are no more than mountains and streams, and mountains and forests are no more than human hair.
It was a vast and lonely world, with no beasts, no people, and no other race. Between the mountains, there are countless trees, and the river winds from the mountains, and I don't know the upstream and downstream, and there is silence inside.
"Second brother, what do you say this building in the middle of the building, between this heaven and earth, can it be regarded as something?" A voice seemed to come from the moat, giving people an endless recollection.
Another voice sounded, in response to the voice just now: "The building in the building is like a cloud in the sky, which can be blown away by a random gust of wind." ”
"Oh?" the man before seemed to be a little unconvinced of what he said: "It's just that between heaven and earth, I'm afraid there is no such casual wind! If you want to blow this cloud away, you need at least an eighth-level strong wind, and that is not a casual wind." ”
A somewhat illusory figure with a half-masked face appeared on the top of the mountain, bringing life to the world. This person is the second brother in the other person's mouth, that is, the second master of the building in the building - Dugu Qi: "Even if it is not an eighth-level gale, but a breeze blowing, I'm afraid this cloud will slowly not be able to bear it!"
is another figure, almost the same as Dugu Qi, but the mask on the face and Dugu Qi take care of each other. One with a left face and one with a right face, this person is the third master of the building in the building - Luo Shijian.
Luo Shijian suddenly laughed wildly, his voice fell, and asked, "Dare to ask the second brother, how many years has Lou Zhonglou been in this Lingxiao Realm?"
Dugu Qi seemed to be meditating, and after about ten breaths, he spoke: "A total of one hundred thousand and three hundred and twenty years." ”
"You and I have been in the Assassin's Hall for nearly 100,000 years since the beginning of the establishment of the building, so do you remember how many missions you have completed?" Luo Shijian's face was sometimes illusory, sometimes real, making people dazzled.
In Duguqi's hand, a chessboard appeared with black and white chess pieces on it, and both kinds of chess pieces were the same.
"Thirteen thousand twenty-five in total, and one more ...... It's not done!"
A remnant sword also appeared in front of Luo Shijian, with a total of thirteen thousand twenty-five swords, and one sword...... It's broken.
"What a coincidence, second brother, I can't imagine that the two of us have completed the same number of tasks. ”
Dugu Qi's face was cloudy, and he said: "We all acted together at that time, whether it was a task of one person or multiple people, it was the two of us, and the task was naturally the same." ”
"Then why do I have to succumb to you?" Luo Shijian tilted his head and stared at Dugu Qi with one eye.
Dugu Qi squinted his eyes and said: "100,000 years of friendship, I can't imagine that it will be scattered because of this little thing." ”
Luo Shijian hurriedly waved his hand: "Second brother, I didn't mean that." I'm just talking about a building within a building. Do you know why the building within the building can go from floating in this sky realm to becoming so stable?"
Dugu Qi withdrew the chessboard in his hand, looked at the mountains and rivers on the ground, and his eyes flashed slightly: "I know what you want to say, yes, it's been 100,000 years." From a small assassin at the beginning, to the current owner of the building, only you and I know what we have experienced during this period. As for the so-called friendship between you and me, I am afraid that it has already become a strange existence in the building. As for whether he exists or not, I don't care anymore!"
"Heavenly sword, eternal night, anyone can bully Lou Zhonglou casually, of course, this was more than three hundred years ago. Now, when it comes to the building in the building, who is not frightened and sincerely admires. It's a pity that you and I are incapable, and only by relying on others can we have what we have today. Luo Shijian sighed lowly, both regretful and gratified.
Dugu Qi looked at Luo Shijian, and secretly said in his heart that he was wrong, 100,000 years of friendship, how can he say it. "I see. ”
Dugu Qi suddenly laughed and asked, "Third brother, what do you think this building in the middle of the building is in this world?"
Luo Shijian walked towards Dugu Qi from the air and replied in a low voice: "Building in the building, three thirds." I think the building within the building is like the highest mountain in the mountains. ”
Dugu Qi looked at Luo Shijian and grinned: "Mountain, do you know that one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers?"
"Unless...... If you can defeat me, maybe I'll really call you second brother. A sword appeared in Luo Shijian's hand, and the sword seemed to be broken and lost its tip.
Dugu Qi took out the recovered chessboard again, and this time it was just an empty chessboard, with only dozens of vertical and dozens of horizontal.
Rumble......
In an instant, the entire heaven and earth seemed to be ignited in an instant, and various sounds erupted in the air. Love Me eBook
And all the clouds in the air were blown away, and even the mountains on the ground were either crushed or cut off.
"Heavenly Blade!" Luo Shijian's sword seemed to have a sword tip, and the Xuan Qi above the sky surrounded his long sword.
One sword breaks ten thousand laws, and the heavenly sword stands on the ground!
Dugu Qi screamed happily, and the chessboard in his hand expanded infinitely, covering the sun between the sky and the earth.
Darkness shrouded the earth, and Luo Shijian's remnant sword passed through the chessboard silently, and when it fell to the ground, it all turned into darkness.
"Your vertical and horizontal skills are still so strong!" Luo Shijian seemed to be praising him, but he didn't stop at all.
"The land is lacking!" Luo Shijian roared, and the ground kept rumbling, and the whole earth trembled.
The rivers in the distance have long since stopped, and the mountains have turned to dust.
Duguqi's chessboard suddenly bulged, and a larger mountain range rose rapidly from under the chessboard, but in a moment, it was already in the sky.
After revealing the chessboard, the mountains turned into sharp swords and quickly spread out in all directions, each sword as if it could cut the heavens and the earth.
Dugu Qi came from afar and stepped on the clouds, stretched out a hand, and directly enveloped the heavens and the earth: "Close!"
The vertical and horizontal bars on the chessboard are reduced to lines, but they are solid. It was like bursts of light, white in its vertical and darkness in its horizontal.
And the chessboard, the carrier of white light and darkness, has been cut into tens of thousands of pieces by Luo Shijian's sharp sword.
The lines of white light and darkness were held in Dugu Qi's hand, and Luo Shijian's sword had all dissipated. By the time the ground cleared, a mess came into view, the mountains had been shattered, and the rivers had long since lost their traces.
Luo Shijian stroked the remnant sword in his hand and said softly: "This is the last sword I used, after today, it will be useless." ”
"Shattered!"
Luo Shijian shook hard, and the sword in his hand turned into countless fragments, and in an instant, he had already shot towards Dugu Qi.
Dugu Qi squinted slightly, and the hand holding the white light and dark lines gradually moved away.
The lines of white light stand between heaven and earth, and the lines of darkness cross between heaven and earth.
The countless black and white pieces in Dugu's chess hand slowly flowed down, and seemed to be attracted by the vertical and horizontal lines, and shot towards that side.
A piece of fragment is a square, and a piece of chess is a square. Fragments, chess pieces, and squares correspond one by one, and none of them escape.
The chess pieces collided with the debris in the air at great speed, as if the space was shattered.
Call...... Rumble...... Jump......
Black lines appeared in this world, it was the breath of space, and this seemed to be expected by the two of them.
The soft soil on the ground was long gone, it was full of hard rocks and all kinds of fine iron, and it was the kind that was pressed and difficult to separate.
Dugu Qi and Luo Shijian glanced at each other from a distance, it was still a little insufficient!
"Remnant!" The last hilt of the sword was held in Luo Shijian's hand, and a word was shouted in a low voice.
Dugu Qi stood opposite it, all the white light turned into one, all the darkness turned into one, and the two crossed each other!
"Extreme!"
Rumble......
The hilt of the sword turned into a streamer, and the criss-cross of black and white swirled......
"I lost, second brother!" Luo Shijian looked down at the darkness on his chest, and said these words willingly.
And the hilt of Luo Shijian's sword, under that white light, had turned into powder and dissipated.
