Qi Xianzhou said solemnly at this time: "Now I see that Fang Gongzi has a profound chess path and can use chess to help the world, so I know that he is the person who is destined as the ancestors said." There are a total of 117 pieces of chess pieces in this Tianxing, Qi left two as heirlooms, and the rest did not dare to hide privately. Mr. Chang is here today to be a witness. After speaking, Qi Xianzhou took this bag of Tianxing chess pieces and presented it to Fang Guolian.

Fang Guohuan was shocked: "How can this be made! The treasure in this chess, when it is given to virtuous people, how dare you accept it. Qi Xianzhou said: "Qi has been guarding this chess piece for many years, restless sleep and food all day long, fearing that he will be careless, and will be stolen and deceived by gangsters, which is against the wishes of his ancestors." Today, I see that Fang Gongzi's character and chess are good, and he is in line with the person who receives chess, so he gives it away, please resign in a hurry, so that Qi can go to this matter. Fang Guohuan knew that these Heavenly Star chess pieces were precious and abnormal, and it was not easy to make money, so he didn't dare to accept them for nothing, and he couldn't accept them.

Seeing this, Qi Xianzhou couldn't help but be anxious. Chang Lianyi said aside: "Don't be reluctant to do it, Mr. Qi and his ancestors have such a sincere intention to worship chess, and they can feel the heaven and the earth, and they just want to find a real master for these Tianxing chess pieces." Thinking about Fang Gongzi, a strange passerby, he happened to be here, but was blocked by the heavy rain, and Mr. Ling Qi found out that Gongzi had a stunt, this is the will of God, does Gongzi want to go against the will of God? Under the hard persuasion of Chang Lianyi and Qi Xianzhou, Fang Guolian couldn't accept it, so he had to bow down and accept the Tianxing chess pieces. Qi Xianzhou was overjoyed, and immediately ordered someone to set up a banquet to congratulate him.

In order to thank Qi Xianzhou for the gift of chess, Fang Guolian should also be retained by Qi Xianzhou and Chang Lianyi, so he stayed for more than ten days. In the past ten days, Fang Guohuan tried his best to teach Qi and Chang in chess, which greatly increased their chess strength, and they were very happy. Fang Guochuan then resigned to the two, and Qi and Chang knew that it was inconvenient to stay for a long time, so they set up a wine and candied shop. After the banquet, Qi Xianzhou, Chang Lianyi, Xu Jing, and Liu Ku sent Fang Guolian to six miles outside the village, and the two sides said goodbye to each other.

Fang Guohuan said goodbye to Qi Xianzhou and Chang Lianyi, along the way, because there were more than 100 Tianxing chess pieces on his body, although the size was small and the weight was particularly heavy, but Fang Guohuan felt that it was different from other heavy objects, and he had a sense of stability when he walked, as if he had increased his confidence, and marveled that it was the treasure in chess, and he was secretly happy and glad to have this opportunity.

Along the way, there were several traces of new repair on the road, which showed the heavy rain a few days ago. On both sides of the road, the mountains are high and the grass is dense, the clouds and mist are misty, and the grass and trees are wet, which is obviously the evaporation of water vapor, and there is a sense of freshness and smoothness.

At this moment, Fang Guohuan suddenly felt a fishy smell rushing in front of him, and when he saw more than ten meters in front of him, there was a big movement in the grass beside the road, and he knew that something was wrong, so he involuntarily stopped. Then suddenly out of the grass, a large snake with a colorful bowl mouth slowly crawled out.

Fang Guo suddenly encountered this snake and was stunned for a while. The big snake climbed onto the road, and also found the stunned Fang Guolian, and the snake's head was raised, making a devouring trend. Fang Guohuan was shocked, and suddenly saw that this snake had two horns on its head, both three inches long, and said in shock: "Could it be that this is the legendary dragon snake?" ”

The world often calls the snake a small dragon, and the horned ones are extremely rare, and they are mostly infested in the deep mountains and rivers. "Zuo Biography" contains "Deep mountains and Daze, real dragons and snakes." Although it is contained in the book, this snake is not seen in the world, and people cannot see it, it is only a legend. Or this snake and the dragon are of the same family, but I don't know that the dragon snake is a different species of the snake, and it can also be called Jiao, not the mythical kind of real dragon that absorbs water and makes rain and flies through the fog.

Fang Guohuan suddenly saw the big snake with horns in this life, he was extremely frightened, and he didn't know how to give birth for a while, and he stared at the dragon snake crawling towards him. This dragon snake, which had already made an attack, saw Fang Guolian standing there looking at it, without any intention of running, he was stunned, and seemed to have a precaution against this delicious delicacy that was about to arrive, although the snake was salivating, but its action still slowed down.

Just when Fang Guohuan was frightened and couldn't move, he suddenly smelled a pungent and strong choking smell of smoke, and he couldn't help but raise his hand to cover his snort. Then he suddenly saw the dragon snake that had crawled in front of him, and somehow, the snake's head was crooked, and it was limp and paralyzed on the ground.

At this time, an old man in a cloak and a hat ran over, glanced at the dragon snake that was paralyzed on the ground and could not move, his face was surprised, and then he said to Fang Guolian, who was still standing there in a daze: "It's so dangerous! It's dangerous! When the little boy saw this poison, he was so frightened that he couldn't move. Thanks to the little boy who attracted the attention of this poison, the old man took the opportunity to burn realgar in the limelight and poured it down. If it's any longer, I'm afraid the little boy's life will not be guaranteed. ”

As soon as Fang Guohuan saw the old man, he came to his senses, was shocked, and hurriedly bowed deeply: "Thank you for the old man's life-saving grace." The old man smiled and said, "It's okay for the little boy to be fine, but there is no need to thank him, if you hadn't made this poison lose its vigilance, the old man's male yellow smoke would have no chance to smoke it." Fang Guochuan was surprised: "It turns out that this choking smoke smell is male yellow smoke, but how can it smoke down this vicious snake?" The old man said: "One thing descends one thing, the most feared snake is the male yellow, no matter how big or small, it will fall as soon as it is poured, and it is extremely effective." Fang Guolian said: "I didn't expect this rare dragon snake to be afraid." The old man was overjoyed when he heard this: "It turns out that the little boy also knows this kind of dragon and snake with horns." ”

Fang Guohuan saw that although the old man was old, his physique was tough, and when he thought of the danger just now, he was terrified in his heart, and he was grateful: "Junior Fang Guolian, thank the old man again for saving his life. The old man smiled and said: "It turned out to be Fang Gongzi, don't be polite, the old man Ji Xianghe is a herbalist who collects herbs to cure people's diseases." A few days ago, I heard that there was a landslide in this area, and countless snakes gushed out, and the snakes lived in the mountain, and there must be strange species in the meantime, so I came to explore, and I really met this rare thing. After speaking, Ji Xianghe took out a small knife and saw from his waist, and quickly sawed off the double horns of the dragon snake.

Fang Guohuan saw it and said in surprise: "What is the use of the old man sawing this dragon snake horn?" Could it be a medicine? Ji Xianghe said with a smile: "What Gongzi said is true, this dragon snake is extremely poisonous, but its horns can detoxify, also known as 'poison sucking stone.'" 'Where the sores cure carbuncle at the beginning, put this angle on the top of the sore, like magnetic iron, sticky and inextricable, when the poisonous gas is exhausted, it will fall by itself, put it in human milk, leach out its poison, and can still be reused, the milk of the light poison will turn green, the slightly heavier will become blue and dark, and the most severe will become purple and black. This snake horn is not stone or wood, it is really a treasure in medicine. When Fang Guohuan heard this, he was surprised, looked at the paralyzed dragon snake and said, "This dragon snake may be dead, right?" Ji Xianghe said: "This dragon snake is not comparable to other snakes, its poison is fierce, can poison its own home, so the horns suck it, if there is no horn, it can be poisoned to death." ”

Fang Guohuan was surprised: "The old man sawed it off with two horns, and he has no power to detoxify, so won't he poison himself and die?" Ji Xianghe said with a smile: "The dragon snake is a rare thing, although the old man takes its horn to cure the disease of the world, but he can't bear to hurt its life, this double horn is sawn off from the middle, and there are still remaining roots, which can suck down its own toxicity, and can grow into it after 100 days, if it is sawn off by roots, this dragon and snake will die within three days." Fang Guochuan shook his head and sighed: "I didn't expect such a big thing to have the ability to commit suicide and survive on its own, incredible!" ”

Ji Xianghe checked the two snake horns in his hand at this time, compared them, and handed over a piece to Fang Guolian, and said: "If there is no accidental help from the son, this thing is very rare, so I will send one to you, it may be of some use in the future." Fang Guohuan was overjoyed, thanked him, and then said, "I don't know how the old man will deal with this dragon snake?" Ji Xianghe said: "After an hour, the dragon and snake will wake up, and the old man is waiting here, so as not to alarm passers-by, and when it wakes up, it will lead it to the deep mountains." ”

When Fang Guohuan heard this, he said worriedly: "This snake is venomous, the old man should be careful, in case it wakes up and hurts people." Ji Xianghe said with a smile: "Fang Gongzi is benevolent and kind, and the old man's snake horn has not been given to the wrong person, but please rest assured, although this snake is vicious, once it is smoked by the male yellow, it has no power to attack and hurt people within two or three days." When Fang Guohuan heard this, his heart was a little relieved.

Ji Xianghe said at this time: "Childe is going to hurry, but let's go, not far ahead, you can get on the road." Fang Guochuan remembered the situation just now, and his heart palpitated, and said: "I heard that the rain is heavy, and a lot of snakes have rushed out of the mountain, if a big snake crawls out from the side of the road, how can the younger generation be good?" Ji Xianghe said with a smile: "Childe, it's okay, although there are many snakes gushing out of the cave this time, most of them have been driven to the mountains by experienced people nearby, so as not to hurt people by surprise." When the old man came, he was afraid that there would be a miss, and the pedestrians who came and went on the road were startled, so he sprinkled realgar along the road, and the snake smelled this smell, and it would be avoided far away. ”

When Fang Guohuan heard this, he was relieved and said: "Since this is the case, the younger generation will take the first step, and we will meet again in the future." Ji Xianghe said with a smile: "The son is gone, and when he can see it, he will naturally see each other, and the old man will take it away for a few days, and then look for other strange snakes." Fang Guochuan smiled and said, "Then I wish the old man to find a real dragon." Ji Xianghe said with a smile: "It's good to be able to see the real dragon, it's good to dare to be affectionate, but it's a pity that the old man doesn't have so much blessing." Fang Guochuan smiled and said: "The old man has the power to subdue the dragon and snake, and if the real dragon has it, he will not dare to see the old man." Ji Xianghe laughed when he heard this, and Fang Guohuan smiled goodbye to him.
