Chapter 209: Strange People and Strange Lands

Of the thirteen places in Kyushu, among the twelve known places, the secluded land and the Yu land are isolated overseas, and the three major empires - Qing, Zhao, and Jin - divide seven places.

Qing and Si are owned by Qingguo, Yong and Yan are under the command of Zhao State, and Yan, Hebei and Jing are divided into Jin. It borders on the Jin Kingdom, but it is a single country. The Wild Ancient Forest occupies a place.

Among these twelve lands, only Chu is the most outlier.

The rest of the realms, except for the most mysterious first place, are more or less inhabited by mortals, only Chu Land, there are no mortals at all, and the monks are even more Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, immeasurable and unmeasurable.

When Jiang Feng first entered the ancient city of Shaoguang, he was shocked by the prosperity of the city in front of him, and the ancient city was full of pomp, and the people who came and went were all monks, or selling heavenly materials and earth treasures, or trading and communicating with each other, all of them followed the rules and regulations, and no one dared to rashly cross the thunder pool.

"It deserves to be one of the Seven Star Ancient Cities of Chudi!"

Jiang Feng sighed, he was armed with relics bones, and he could clearly feel that the strong aura of countless monks was intertwined in the sky above the ancient city of Shaoguang, like a canopy, and several of the most powerful breaths even gave him the illusion that he was born as an ant.

There are eight ancient cities in Chudi, and the seven-star ancient city refers to the imperial city, facing the sky and the Beidou, implying the rational layout of the unity of heaven and earth. The ancient city of Shaoguang is the weakest city in Chu.

Jiang Feng stepped into the city, looking at the dazzling array from afar, his eyes were dizzying, in this realm, his cultivation was low, and he should not be too public, so as not to cause trouble.

During the stroll, I was about to blend in with it and have fun in this brocade city, but I saw a group of monks in different clothes gathered under an old willow tree not far away, concentrating on silent words and looking at a little.

"Chess?"

Jiang Feng gently pushed aside the crowd and came to the front of the crowd, just as he saw a stone plate on the side, dotted with black and white, and the two sat facing each other, one old and one young, playing a game.

The game was clearly a short start, but it was an endgame from the start. Jiang Feng has seen a lot of this situation, obviously the old man opposite set the endgame in advance, set a bet, and led others to come to break the game.

Jiang Feng glanced at the young man beside him, and saw that he was quite handsome, calm and relaxed, holding a folding fan in his hand, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth from time to time, obviously he was the one who should gamble to break the game.

On the contrary, the old man who set up the game opposite was frowning at this time, his eyes were bright, constantly examining the chess game, and he was thinking about it, obviously close to the state of exhaustion.

Jiang Feng was greatly surprised, under normal circumstances, this kind of endgame is the most beneficial to the designer, and no matter how much the game-breaker tries to draw with at most, it is difficult to win.

But now, the game-setter is in a dilemma, but any of the game-breakers are at ease.

"Good chess!"

Jiang Feng looked at the situation and couldn't help but sigh in admiration, attracting everyone's sideways glances and casting displeased glances, even the young man who had broken the situation looked at him with interest.

Watching chess without saying a true gentleman, Jiang Feng knew that it was his own rudeness, so he hurriedly said his mistake, stopped speaking, and watched a fierce battle between the vertical and horizontal without the shadow of the sword and sword.

Baishi loves chess, when he was in the Cloud Palace, Jiang Feng often played chess with him, and was also taught by Zhao Mingsheng and others, confident that few of his peers in chess art could match, and now he saw the chess skills of the young man in front of him, and he knew that he was too arrogant to sit in the well and watch the sky.

"You're defeated. ”

A son fell, after the young man whispered, he looked at the old man opposite, no longer moved, the old man held a black chess piece several times and wanted to fall, but finally trembling and sighing, clenching his fists to admit defeat.

"Daoyou is talented, the old man is incompetent, and he is willing to gamble and lose. ”

The old man took out a blue axe-shaped coin from his bosom and solemnly handed it to the young man, apparently a bet. The young man took it with both hands, got up and saluted back, said yes, and turned around and walked out.

Jiang Feng stood still, staring intently at the chess game in front of him, and only after a while did he suddenly open up, seeing the key to the young man's victory, he couldn't help but admire it to the extreme.

As the saying goes, the authorities are obsessed, but Jiang Feng clearly has the advantage of being a bystander, but he still can't immediately see the mystery of the game, which shows the gap between them.

It was finally an episode, after the admiration, Jiang Feng also left the crowd, and after a while, the crowd left one after another, either shocked, or appreciative, or puzzled, and after the crowd dispersed, the old man who set up the game took the chess and left.

Jiang Feng wanted to find a place to live first, and then find a place to collect information, and during his inspection, he came across a nine-story palace building in the city, and many monks entered it.

These monks entered the palace building, holding axe-shaped coins of various colors, in the same way as the stakes of the previous game of Go.

"Could it be that this coin is a currency unique to Chu?"

Jiang Feng was puzzled when he saw it, but suddenly saw the young man who had just broken the game in chess tapped the folding fan in his hand and walked slowly towards him.

"There is a chance meeting, it seems that Daoyou is also a chess lover. ”

Jiang Feng didn't expect that his unintentional faux pass would leave an impression on the other party, and he couldn't help but feel ashamed.

"But I know a little bit about it, how dare I show my ignorance in front of real people. ”

"It's just an interest in spending time in your spare time, how can you be called a real person, and Daoyou praised it falsely. ”

The young man was dressed in white, and he looked polite, not like a monk, but more like a weak scholar. Jiang Feng felt that this image might be more appropriate.

Fang Cai glanced at it in a hurry, Jiang Feng only paid attention to the chess game, and did not take advantage of it to take a closer look, and when he approached at this time, he saw the appearance of the young man clearly, he was really handsome and elegant, and he was a talent.

On the jade crown of his hair, there were gossip patterns engraved, which made Jiang Feng pay attention to it a little, and when his gaze moved down, Jiang Feng only felt that the young man's facial lines were quite feminine, and between talking and laughing, he not only showed his bearing, but also had a different kind of charm, unlike ordinary men.

Jiang Feng took a closer look, only to suddenly find that the young man with delicate facial features in front of him had no Adam's apple, and realized that he was actually a young woman in men's clothes.

Although he had already seen through the truth about the other party's woman disguised as a man, Jiang Feng didn't say much, the other party's behavior must have a reason, and it was not his turn to be a stranger to doubt.

"I looked at Daoist friends with confused eyes, and I didn't seem to recognize the 'Lianzhen Building' in front of me, could it be that Daoist friends came from somewhere else?"

At this moment, the woman suddenly asked, Jiang Feng did not hide it, and only said that he was from Qingguo, not the reason in detail. With the lessons of Wu Xiulin in front of him, he is now seven points wary of any stranger.

"Forgive me for taking the liberty of being presumptuous, I wonder if you can tell me what is wonderful and special about this refining building?"

"The effort of raising your hands is not enough to worry about!" the woman said with a smile, "This refining building is unique to Chudi, each ancient city has been set up, and it is jointly governed by several major forces, which can help people cultivate karma and Yuan Shen power, and Taoist friends will understand the beauty after experiencing it themselves." ”

"It's so strange that I don't know if it's possible to enter it?"

"That's it!"

The woman took out the blue axe-shaped coin she had won from the previous chess game and showed it to Jiang Feng.

"This thing is a pass to the Refining Building, different colors, and the cultivation time in it is also different, such as this blue coin in my hand, you can practice in the Refining Building for three days, and after use, it will be invalidated, and you need to renew it before you can use it again. ”

Jiang Feng secretly said Sure enough, he asked the woman for some information to use, and he had the intention of leaving.

"Meeting is fate, if you don't mind, you are willing to help one or two. ”

Looking at the woman's sincere eyes, Jiang Feng still politely rejected the other party's kindness. The Chudi monk is a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, and he is as skilled as a cloud, so he must be cautious.

The most important thing is that even if he had a relic bone on his body, he couldn't even see through the true cultivation of this strange monk disguised as a man in front of him, which made him feel a trace of inexplicable fear in addition to surprise.

He didn't know the other party's original intention, and what happened to Wuhou Mansion was yesterday, and it was as clear as it was in front of him. It is difficult to draw dragons and tigers, he does not dare to trust people anymore, if the other party is really ill-intentioned, in the case of ignorance, he is very likely to be doomed.
