Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Way of Chess Can Be Counted The Way of Heaven is Unfathomable
The most central circular study in the central hall of Hengshan Sect,
Li Xiaoyang looked down at the black and white stars in front of him, like sitting on pins and needles, he was uncertain for two main reasons, one was to guess the identity of the old man in front of him, and the other was that the chess game in front of him was really chaotic, whether it was white or black, it was chaotic, and Li Xiaoyang, who was so dazzled that he could win Sima Wei, confused black and white. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Li Xiaoyang couldn't see the clue of the chess game with his eyes, but guessed the identity of the old man, so he was no longer embarrassed, looked up and looked carefully at the great elder of the Hengshan Sect, who had lived for four years, and once again respectfully said, "The junior has seen the great elder of Qin Gu!" ”
Qin Gu had a pair of charcoal-like pupils, which made people ignore his vicissitudes of skin, and only felt that the Great Elder was very divine!
Qin Gu tried his best to speak clearly in a somewhat hoarse voice: "The son is polite." ”
Li Xiaoyang seized the opportunity and hurriedly patted the horse: "In front of the great elder with immeasurable merits, the junior does not dare to call himself a son!" ”
Qin Gu didn't feel disgusted by Li Xiaoyang's cheeky sycophancy, and he didn't continue to be polite, but asked instead: "Does Childe see the situation in the chess game?" ”
Li Xiaoyang immediately replied: "The junior hasn't seen it yet, so I ask the senior elder to let me observe for a while." He rolled his eyes, this great elder asked me twice about the chess game, what is the meaning of the game? Then he looked intently at the chessboard.
At first glance, it was slow and urgent, and there was no farewell, white and black were chaotic, and it was like a Ge about it.
After observing for a few minutes, Li Xiaoyang saw a little order in the chaotic battle situation, no longer the previous black and white, and after a few minutes, he probably calculated who was stronger and who was weak in black and white, but this is only a rough speculation, the chess game is like a battlefield, and everything is born in one step, even if it is a computer, he does not dare to make an assertion, so he said an unsatisfactory statement: "The junior only sees that the black and white sides are evenly matched, and he does not dare to assert who is stronger after twenty steps." ”
Qin Gu asked blandly, "Can you calculate the last twenty steps of black and white?" For Li Xiaoyang's twenty steps after the performance in ten minutes, Qin Gu did not show surprise, nor did he show disbelief, just looked indifferent.
If it was in the past, Li Xiaoyang would definitely say arrogantly that this was a piece of cake for carving insects, but now in front of him is an old-timer who has lived for 400 years, and he doesn't dare to make a mistake, so he humbly said: "I understand a little, I understand a little." ”
Great Elder Qin Gu stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation, and said, "Can Gongzi accompany the old man to finish this game of chess?" Black and white. ”
Li Xiaoyang's heart is overturning, wow! The Great Elder, who has lived for four hundred years, wants to play chess with me? Isn't it a great honor for me? In the future, I boasted to others that I had more capital, saying that I had played Go with Qin Gu, the great elder of Hengshan, and I felt bullish when I listened to it, if I won by luck, I could brag for ten years, and if I lost, it would be a good talk, and when the time came, in the name of Qin Gu, who in the world didn't know me Li Xiaoyang?
He immediately agreed: "The junior is willing!" ”
Qin Gu looked at Li Xiaoyang with a smile, he did not rush to choose the seemingly strong black square, but concentrated on watching chess again.
Li Xiaoyang's viewing of chess is to watch until dawn!
This seemingly ordinary chaotic chess game is the secret treasure of the Hengshan Sect, the Heavenly Demon Chess, which hides surging spiritual power, but Li Xiaoyang can't feel it, there is aura around the chessboard, and the aura in the psychic green bamboo forest is ten times stronger, ordinary cultivators will go crazy as long as they look at the chess game, and the monks of the seventh and eighth orders can barely perceive the danger, and they can avoid the sight in time to avoid the demons from running wild, even the grandmaster of the Void Yuan realm does not dare to stay longer, but Li Xiaoyang, who has no cultivation, sees the dawn from the night of the third watch!
The indoor lights are bright, as bright as day, and anyone who stays in it for a long time will forget the time, but at this moment, Li Xiaoyang deeply felt a ray of sunshine shining on his body! The dawn of the sky, the epiphany of man.
Li Xiaoyang realized the mystery of the chess game, but he couldn't make a move. He put his hand in his stomach and let out a sigh of relief.
Qin Gu had been sitting opposite to observe Li Xiaoyang, but he had been observing for half a night, and a smile on his face that had not been seen in a hundred years bloomed, and he asked, "Your Highness Li, have you realized the Dao?" ”
Li Xiaoyang was instantly hot-headed, his body trembled slightly, and he raised his head and looked at Qin Gu disrespectfully. Why does this Great Elder know about my origins? When did you find out? Was it when I entered the room, or when I entered the Hengshan Sect? Even when I entered the North Underworld, I knew it?
Qin Gu didn't get angry when he saw Li Xiaoyang looking at him, he still kept a smile on his face, and explained to Li Xiaoyang the questions in his heart: "You are very similar to your father, I didn't just see you today, the first time I saw you was on the day you were born." I deeply remember that at that time, there was a once-in-a-millennium weather of heaven and earth, ordinary people only saw the night sky covered with brilliance, and the most shining one appeared in the nebula, the star was called Hades, only people who cultivated to a certain extent could feel it, and the aura that was originally smoothly and evenly dispersed on the continent suddenly became disordered, and thousands of aura poured directly into Hengnan, shrouding the entire Nanheng sky, and the masters of Buddhism and Confucianism gathered in Nanheng, among which I was there. ”
Li Xiaoyang laughed self-deprecatingly: "The Great Elder also thinks that I am the true son of heaven who bears the luck of the Nanheng Holy Dragon?" "What is the true destiny of the son of heaven that he secretly cursed in his heart? A group of laypeople, can fate be counted? Can the way of heaven be counted?
Qin Gu stroked his long beard and said, "Even if the old man has lived for four years, he doesn't dare to talk about His Highness's luck in the next few decades, but the current situation, just like this game of Heavenly Demon Chess, can only be calculated by those who are clear-minded, and I believe that His Highness has already realized it." ”
Li Xiaoyang clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and hesitated for a while. This chess game is chaotic, black soldiers and white pawns are thousands of vertical and horizontal, the sky is dark, but he realizes the order in the chaos, whether he takes black or white, whether black goes first or white first, he can't win, this is a dead game, no matter how he moves next, he can't win.
But if you can't win, it's not a loss, as long as you retreat into the moat, step by step to defend as an offense, black and white will eventually be a draw.
Qin Gu was telling him that if he took a step back, he could save his life, and if he moved forward regardless of the consequences, no matter whether he chose black or white, he would inevitably die. The implication is to ask him to retreat to Nanheng and not to take a further step to the north.
Li Xiaoyang squinted his eyes and smiled, looking at Qin Gu's charcoal-like pupils, Tongxuan peak can live for four hundred years, if I am a land immortal, can I live a thousand years? Or can I, without the slightest cultivation, live to be 100 years old?
"Great Elder Qin Gu, what is it like to live for so long?"
Qin Gu retracted his smile, shook his head slightly and sighed, this kid, as stubborn as his father, knowing that this road is dangerous, and he also asks for a life of nine deaths?
Li Xiaoyang lowered his head and asked again: "Great Elder Qin Gu, is it really possible for the Ice Plain Heavenly Frost Cave to help me?" ”
Qin Gu didn't speak, but nodded slightly.
Li Xiaoyang saw Qin Gu nodding, his blood was surging in an instant, he stood up instantly, and quickly knelt down again, making a posture of kneeling to Qin Gu, there is gold under the man's knees? He has never bowed down to others in his life, and he has only commanded others in his life, so he knelt down to Qin Gu, who had lived for four hundred years in front of him?
"My life in my previous life was short and bitter, and in this life, I don't seek glory and wealth, I don't seek the title of emperor, I only seek to live forever!" "Ask Great Elder Qin Gu to fulfill it!"
Qin Gu sighed again, how did he choose, after four hundred years, he still couldn't count the ethereal Heavenly Dao.
No matter how old Qin Gu was, he didn't dare to bow down to the son of King Li in front of him, so he stretched out his hands to help Li Xiaoyang and said, "Your Highness, get up first." ”
Li Xiaoyang saw Qin Gu personally helping him, and immediately got up.
"Your Highness wants to change the order of the roster of the martial arts test?"
Li Xiaoyang's stuffy body just now cooled down in an instant, why did this elder even know about this? I didn't tell anyone except Yudulin!
Qin Gu said: "Yudulin is also a good seed, and with hard work, he will definitely be able to cross that threshold." ”
Li Xiaoyang was speechless for a while.
"Let the old man calculate this matter again, and then give an answer to His Highness in a few days, can you?" In front, Li Xiaoyang begged Qin Gu to give him some time, why is it reversed now?
"Thank you, Great Elder!" "I'm really sorry that the junior disturbed the eldest elder sleeping, the junior will go back first and stop disturbing the eldest elder to rest." Li Xiaoyang made a gesture and withdrew from the screen.
When Li Xiaoyang walked to the door, he gave a deep bow to the old man behind the screen.
In this game of chess, before a son falls, you will know the victory or defeat, the chess path can be counted, but the way of heaven is vast, can it be counted?
Qin Gu sat back in his place, continued to look back at the chess game in front of him, stroked his beard and smiled, the first time in a hundred years to see through this game, this son may really be the son of destiny.
Li Xiaoyang walked out of the central hall, the morning light was shining, the light of the morning sun was very pleasant on his face, gentle, this mildness made him miss his mother, Mom, do you miss me too?
Li Xiaoyang found out that there were five people standing there outside the hall, four people escorting one person, and Yu Dulin, who was shouting his mother in fear, Li Xiaoyang frowned, why was this guy arrested?
The four elders waited for Li Xiaoyang to come out, and then let go of Yu Dulin, who was still shouting his mother a moment ago, suddenly wondered, why did he let it go inexplicably?
Li Xiaoyang was also in the clouds, and politely waved at the four elders who walked towards the central hall. Then he walked up to Yu Dulin, who was released, and said, "Are you okay?" ”
Yu Dulin was sweating profusely, he still didn't understand anything, he thought that if he was caught, he would be dead, and he would definitely be trapped in prison, or he would have to be expelled from the division, why did he release it now? "Look at me, can you be okay?"
Li Xiaoyang held his stomach and looked up to the sky and laughed. What a shit!
He laughed, Yu Dulin didn't understand it anymore, is this kid crazy?
