There is a place to go in Sichuan and Shu, the land has the danger of the sword pavilion plank road, and the water has the risk of Qutang and the river. Crossing the horse to the west, the bamboo fence covers the high mountains layer by layer, and the peak is not seen in ten days. There are also desperate and deep valleys, and the bottom of the valley is not visible, which is frightening and terrifying. If you want to take a boat to travel the waterway, the river is fierce, the reef is sharp, the waves are vicious, the whirlpool is turbulent, it is because the tourists do not want to visit, and the flow of woodfishers does not want to harvest here. There are peaks, valleys and water here, the beauty is not as good as the twelve peaks, the solemnity is inferior to Emei, and it is close to the nameless.

The name "Zongheng" was given by the hermits who lived here.

He used this name simply because he loved Go.

Hidden in the valley is a pile of low simple houses, overgrown with weeds in front of the door, and it has not been taken care of for a long time, but the thatched hut cooking room exudes a burst of aroma of rice, and it is lunch time.

Outside the house, there is a bluestone round table, the table circumference is not very regular, the table top is flat and smooth, carved with nineteen straight carved lines vertically and horizontally, and nearly a hundred sons have fallen on it.

The two people who played against each other, one was a charitable-looking old man, with gray hair, ragged clothes, and some did not pay attention to manners and clothing, but the crown of his hair was neatly combed and meticulous. His sunspots have already occupied most of the country, and the winner of this game will be divided.

The man holding the white hand had locked his eyebrows for a long time, and at this moment he suddenly smiled with relief: "That's it, I'll admit defeat." The chess pieces he was holding between his slender fingertips were put back into the chess bowl and tapped lightly on the table: "In vain, I have studied in [the game world], but now it seems that I have not grown at all." ”

"Haha, the first thirty hands are indeed extraordinary, even I almost can't parry, but you are still too anxious, and the medium-term operation is not calm enough. The old man stroked his long beard hanging down to his chest with satisfaction: "I haven't seen you for a long time, you have made rapid progress." How long have you been studying at [Game World]?"

"Half a year. ”

"Fortunately, your talent is not bad, why don't you continue your studies in Confucianism?"

The man said lightly: "There is something at home, and I have been recalled." ”

He spoke indifferently, but his words were heavy.

When he went home, he said it was like going to the execution ground.

The old hermit recalled that when he was a child, he was able to walk into the valley by mistake, and his innocent expression, no contention, no restraint, no restraint, those big bright eyes revealed infinite possibilities, and he liked this child very much.

Although his surname is Don.

The Tang family is hated by the old hermit all his life.

The appearance of this child made him rekindle his hatred in seclusion, and gradually forgot about it. It is this child who fills the gap in the old man's heart.

Year after year, he watched his children grow up and watched the family strife gradually encroach on his innocence.

When I see him again, his gaze is no longer ethereal, secretive, and obscure, which is growth and compromise.

"It's better to let go of your responsibilities and go into hiding. The old man wanted to say this, but he never did. He still smiled: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back." ”

"The nineteenth son of the Tang Sect, there are more people who are more qualified than me to be the head of the family. The man cleaned up the chess pieces on the stone table: "Let me concentrate on fighting for this position, it is better to concentrate on playing chess with the teacher." ”

"Qitong, you are a popular candidate for the head of the family, do you know what the handicap outside is like?"

Tang Qigongzi was surprised and said: "Teacher, you live in seclusion in the mountains, are you still interested in inquiring about such miscellaneous matters?" ”

"People are not stained by the wind and dust, but the wind and dust stain people. ”

"Not really. The door of the grass house slowly opened, and out walked out a young girl, her skin was wheat-yellow, and there was no red makeup, but the children of the peasant family had a unique charm, she walked out with a fragrant meal, and said with a cheerful smile: "Two days ago, the dust of Xiwulin was also infected with my father-in-law." ”

"Xiwulin?" Tang Qigongzi said suspiciously: "The teacher's whereabouts are extremely well hidden, and he has actually been found?"

"The Solomon Dynasty can conquer Shenzhou, what is the difficulty of finding my old bones?" The old man swallowed his saliva when he smelled the rice: "Girl, bring a pot of wine." ”

"Today, Tang Qigongzi is here, and you are allowed to drink a little. The girl put down her meal and went back to the hut to warm the wine.

Tang Qigongzi was a little worried: "Why did Xiwulin come to find the teacher?"

"It is rumored that a few days ago, [Tianquan] was born, do you know?"

"[Tianquan Divine Comedy Star]?" asked Tang Qigongzi.

"Yes. What do you know about [Heavenly Power]?"

Tang Qigongzi also only heard the surface of the wild history rumors in the family, and when he studied in one of the six arts of Confucianism, he also discussed some with his fellow initiates, and he said truthfully: "It is rumored that when Solomon was about to conquer Shenzhou, Zhu Zicheng had a vision, and a huge jade stone smashed into Zhu Zicheng, causing a big explosion, Shenzhou is called [Tianqi], and Xiwulin is used to attributed to the gods, called [Shenqi]. Extraterrestrial meteorites are not uncommon, but this thing is said to be a rare jade, and there is a mystery on it, one says that it is engraved with an endorsement, and the other is said to be engraved with the [Dead Sea Fragment] that Xiwulin is fascinated by, but regardless of the appropriate content, it seems to indicate a prophecy-"

"The Divine Comedy of Heavenly Power, the Salvation of the World, and the Ghost Song of the Heavenly Queen, the Burning of the World and the Return of the Earth. The old man took the words and sighed: "The prophecy of the Apocalypse, before the retreat, is the same as the world's monks, gods, or alchemists, and astrologers, I regard it as the pinnacle of the prophetic world, and I want to conquer him all the time, but I have been running around for most of my life, and I have found nothing, and I can't even see the appearance of the jade. ”

Tang Qigongzi said: "Could it be that Mr. Fei has the intention of making a comeback?"

"Look. The old man took out a piece of jade with a green and transparent strip of jade from his broken sleeve, Tang Qigongzi took it, the jade was held in his hand, soft and warm, and there was a faint heat transmitted from the palm to the qi veins, which seemed to have the miraculous effect of calming the mind and activating the heart, and he couldn't help but say: "This jade is extraordinary." ”

"Look at the other side. ”

Tang Qigongzi turned the jade, and the side was painted with a faint mark that looked like a spell and a totem, and most of it was artificially hidden. The old man said: "This stone is sent by the envoy of Xiwulin, it is said to be a piece of jade from the Apocalypse, which is carved by masonry, and the totem on it seems to be some kind of prophecy, but it is deliberately hidden, so that people can see the flowers in the fog, and their hearts are itchy and unbearable, hmm——"

"Father-in-law, if you dare to enter the rivers and lakes again, don't blame me for turning my face and being ruthless. The girl put down the warm wine and poured a glass with a straight face.

"Well, it's up to you. ”

"You have to remember what you say. The girl poked her finger at the old man's head, turned back and went into the house, and said, "Eat, I still have a bunch of work here." ”

Tang Qigongzi knew the old man's temperament, and he also persuaded: "Sir, I also think that you should not rush north to Zhu Zicheng, after all, ......"

"I know, 'If you wade into the red dust again, it is rare to be superborn', this is the lower half of my own judgment. "The old man picks up food and drinks. laughed at himself: "I want to glance at the Six Paths and Reading God Machine, and I have only criticized myself once in my life, but I ended up like this, it's really ridiculous." ”

Tang Qigongzi comforted: "Being as leisurely as Mr. is what I Tang Lan'er pursues and yearns for." ”

"If it's fate, you want to provoke the head of the Tang family, what should you do?"

"I don't believe my fate should be like this. ”

"Haha, do you want me to calculate a hexagram for you?"

Tang Qigongzi pushed back and said, "Mr. said he was laughing." ”

Yue Shenji took a sip of wine, looked at the hut behind him vigilantly, confirmed that his daughter did not come out, and lowered his voice: "Qitong, what do you think of my daughter?"

Tang Qigongzi didn't understand what he meant, but said: "Shen Lian is naturally very good to Mr. ”

"Wood...... I mean, how do you look at her through your eyes?"

Tang Qigongzi replied truthfully: "I get along with her, but I am closer to her than to Brother Tang. ”

Yue Shen Ji said angrily: "Could it be that you treat Shen Lian as a relative?"

"Yes, sir. ”

Yue Shenji said: "No other meaning?"

"What do you mean?"

"Isn't Shen Lian beautiful enough?"

"Naturally, no. ”

"Good. Do you like her?"

"Like. ”

"What if you were asked to marry her?"

Tang Qigongzi suddenly realized, and hurriedly defended: "Sir, could it be that there is some misunderstanding here?"

"That's right. If I let you marry Shen Lian, would you be willing?"

Tang Qigongzi's eyes dodged: "This ...... But ......" He poured a glass of wine for the reading god machine: "Sir, do you want to go to Zhu Zicheng and climb the divination god abacus?"

His mind had been broken, and he felt bored for a moment: "Yes, after I leave, I will entrust my divine training to you." ”

Tang Qigongzi said: "Mr. and Shen Lian can be said to be my relatives, no matter who it is, I will not let it go." ”

Yue Shenji sighed and said: "I don't know whether I should be happy or melancholy for your answer." ”

"I'm gone, I guess I won't be able to meet you and Shenlian again. Yue Shenji said: "I have lived enough, but I have never been relieved of you, especially you, Qitong, you have a pure nature, and you admire and cherish your kindness, what I am most afraid of is that you will be tormented in the dangerous Tang Gate and lose your nature." ”

Tang Qigongzi is full of inexplicable strangeness and rejection for the rich, huge, and arrogant Tang family. It's just that he doesn't dare to guarantee that he won't become like the undercurrent in the Tang Sect, pursuing profits, calculating and fighting.

Yueshen Ji took out a bag from the inner fold of his clothes and handed it to Tang Qigongzi.

The brocade bag looks old, the embroidered satin has been broken a lot, but the gold paint on it is not broken, and the reading machine seems to have been retained for a long time, and has not been opened.

"Only open your bag when you're in a life-threatening situation. ”

"Sir, you ......"

"I have made a divination, and sealed the solution to the most dangerous time of your life in my bag, don't worry, I have not read the result, I have kept the agreement with you. ”

"Thank you, sir. Tang Qigongzi put away the bag and said with mixed feelings: "At that time...... Be careful. ”

The peach tree in front of the door was dying, and a pink petal quietly fell, and the reading machine smiled when he saw this: "Today's vertical and horizontal valley is also lively." ”

Tang Qigongzi nodded: "Someone is coming, do you need me to avoid it?"

"No, I don't. ”

A spring breeze blew, more peach blossoms drifted down, and on the mountain road that crisscrossed the valley, beside the turbulent waterway, there was an extra figure.

"Lao Ji is in the woods, the turtle is eternal, the clothes have not changed, and the spirit is spring and autumn. The ambition will be raised, and the sincerity will be adhered to, and it will not stop until death. The person who came reported the poem number according to the etiquette of China, the tone was high, and the words were full of pride and perseverance. Tang Qigongzi seemed to have seen this person, but he couldn't recall it.

The person who came laughed dryly: "One eye of the Six Paths, Reading God Machine, you are hiding so well." ”

Reading God Ji closed his eyes and drank: "If you can find me, you must have also found the Xuan Yuan...... It's been a long time, Mu Yunguan. ”

Tang Qigongzi frowned, and suddenly remembered this person.

Mu Yunguan glanced at Tang Qigongzi, but immediately recognized it: "I remember that you are the descendant of the Tang Sect, the head of the family, Tang Scale, we have met once in [Playing the World]. ”

Tang Qigongzi nodded and saluted: "I've seen my predecessors." ”

"The nineteen sons of the Tang Sect, all of them are junjie elites, [playing the world] in one game, I am deeply impressed by you. ”

Yue Shenji said: "He can't even win against me, what can impress you?"

Mu Yunguan was noncommittal, and only said, "The book seat asked me to inquire about you." ”

"Alas...... Void Fate Xuan, Void Fate Xuan, since he has returned to the hidden rivers and lakes, why bother to cause more trouble?" Yue Shenji sighed.

Confucian scholars, Xuan Yuan, suspected of plotting against the Solomon Dynasty, has been expelled from the scholarly Fengyatang, defected and became a ronin, this matter is known to the world, Mu Yunguan is the third seat of the new Confucian Fengyatang, why does it still seem to have a connection with Xuangongzi? Tang Qigongzi was puzzled for a while, thoughtful.

"Xuan Gongzi just wants to ask you, [Tianquan Divine Comedy Star], is it him?"

Tang Qigongzi's suspicions have risen again, who is he referring to by Mu Yunguan?

Could it be that Xuan Gongzi and Mu Yunguan already have a fixed mind about [Tianquan]?

What's even more strange is that if you ask this way, could it be that Mr. has already calculated the future and has a result?

Yue Shenji shook his head and said, "No comment." ”

Mu Yunguan said: "In this way, Zhu Zicheng and the Divination God Abacus, you can't go." ”

"What if I want to go?"

Mu Yunguan said: "Reading God Machine, if you want to enjoy Qingfu in peace, don't go out of the mountain." ”

"It seems...... You are still at the mercy of the Void Fate. ”

"Say whatever you want, but this matter is about the future of China, please think twice. ”
