Volume 2 The Famous Boy Chapter 13 The Chessboard

Xiao Jiansheng didn't wait long, and the woman appeared in front of him with a light step.

The woman beckoned, "Come with me, the master wants to see you." ”

Xiao Jiansheng smiled and nodded, and followed the woman through the huge statue stone pillar towards the interior of the Thunder Temple.

The woman led the way in front of her head, Xiao Jiansheng followed behind her with a heavy heart, the reason why this is so is that Wan Gu has a preconceived influence, it is said that Wan Gu has a strange temper and is moody, he knows that people with this kind of character are difficult to deal with, and turning his face is faster than turning a book.

The two walked through the dimly lit stone corridor on both sides, and there was a strange smell of burning incense and burning paper, after about a stick of incense, the two entered a dark and gloomy spacious hall, the woman slowed down and climbed the steps, Xiao Jiansheng followed the woman up the steps, and came to a towering stone platform, the stone platform was suspended in the air, and there were lamps and candles in the four corner trees, but there was nothing burning in the lampshade, only a mass of gas that emitted a dark light.

Xiao Jiansheng didn't dare to look further, he looked ahead, and he noticed that there was a half-human-high stone table not far in front of him, and next to the stone table stood an old woman with a rickety waist, facing a black stone chessboard on the stone table as if in deep thought.

The woman glanced at Xiao Jiansheng, who was a little restrained, and said in an extremely low voice: "Just wait, don't disturb the master, otherwise her old man will be angry." ”

Xiao Jiansheng comprehended, nodded slightly, and the woman retreated from the stone platform.

After the woman left, only the old woman and Xiao Jiansheng were left on the stone platform, Xiao Jiansheng became more and more restrained, the inside of the temple compared to the outside, there was a difference between winter and summer, but Xiao Jiansheng couldn't stop sweating.

The lights are quiet and the atmosphere is oppressive.

The old woman was motionless like a statue, and Xiao Jiansheng even held her breath, quietly looking at the old woman's back, looking at the empty black stone chessboard, and looking at the missing vertical and horizontal lines.

Xiao Jiansheng stood for a few days, his legs were already numb and similar to the lamppost, his expression was stiff and he would only open and close his eyes, at first, he could still see the broken lines on the chessboard, these days, I don't know if it was because of his eyes, or because of those lines, the lines on the chessboard began to become blurred, and the broken lines were flowing along the chessboard like water in a daze.

In the past few days, the woman had only come three times, and each time she had brought a cup of piping hot tea and turned away.

On the last occasion, Xiao Jiansheng considered the words for a while, and when the woman was leaving, he finally lowered his voice and said, "This senior sister has worked hard. ”

"Senior sister?"

The woman was visibly stunned for a moment, but did not say any more, and floated away.

It seemed that it was the next day, Xiao Jiansheng was already a little unable to hold on, his mind was chaotic, his eyes were dry and painful, and the whole person was like a dying old man who wanted to fall asleep, but at this moment, the chessboard suddenly shone brightly, and in an instant, red and yellow chaotic qi emerged from the black stone, and began to be painted, and after a few breaths, the mountain map condensed by the red and yellow chaotic qi on the chessboard was faintly visible.

Xiao Jiansheng's eyes widened and he was calm, he subconsciously moved two steps forward, but was startled by an old breath and retreated back to his original place.

The old woman first stretched her muscles and bones, exhaled three major breaths of turbidity in a row, turned around at a very slow speed, and then looked directly at Xiao Jiansheng, slowly raised her eyelids, her dull eyes began to become full of spirit, and at a certain moment, two rays of light burst out of her eyes.

The old woman is not Xiao Jiansheng's long mouth and eyes are crooked, with a black hole in her mouth, but she has long eyebrows and kind eyes, it can be imagined that the old woman was definitely a beautiful person when she was young, if it weren't for the two eyes that were aggressive, Xiao Jiansheng would definitely relax her vigilance.

The old woman sighed and said leisurely, "Bring the letter." ”

Xiao Jiansheng took a few steps forward, handed over the letter that had been prepared for a long time with both hands, and then returned the same way.

The old woman spread out the letterhead on the stone table, first looked at the front, and then naturally turned over the letterhead to look at the back, and the pair of shining eyes stayed on the words for some time before moving away.

Although Xiao Jiansheng was curious about what these words meant, he didn't dare to ask, but he could see that the old woman looked at those words with much more care than the positive text.

The old woman suddenly pointed to the chessboard behind her, looked at Xiao Jiansheng and said, "Child, aren't you curious about what this thing is?"

Xiao Jiansheng shook his head nervously, then nodded, and said in a low voice: "Juniors dare to guess, could it be that this is the Borrowed Soldier Mountain?"

The old woman nodded her chin slowly.

Just when Xiao Jiansheng was quietly staring at the gas map of the Borrowed Soldier Mountain, the old woman said: "The Divine Tomb is about to open, and the Borrowed Soldier Mountain has also been deduced, how much can you remember about your creation, the old body likes a bowl of water, since you have seen the inside of the Divine Tomb one step ahead, then you will inevitably pay some price." ”

Xiao Jiansheng bowed down and said solemnly: "What kind of price, please tell me about the seniors." ”

The old woman didn't speak, but looked out of the hall.

At this moment, a white figure slowly entered the hall, stepped onto the stone platform, bowed to the old woman, and said in a crisp voice: "Wan seniors' way of acting like this makes the younger generations extremely admired, if An Mou kills him now, he will eventually leave a handle on the rivers and lakes, if he comes out of the shrine, then the juniors will take his life again." ”

The person who came was dressed in white, wearing a white robe, wearing a silver mask, and carrying a rusty unsheathed long sword on his back, revealing only a pair of bright eyes, and he could not see his age and appearance at all, and it was difficult to distinguish between genders, and even his voice seemed to be grasping when he spoke.

Xiao Jiansheng looked at the man in white, and felt a sense of disgust for no reason.

He has always believed in his own feelings, and he also believes in his own guesses, the person killed by the man in white with his mouth open and closed is none other than his Xiao Jiansheng.

The old woman said casually: "The affairs of the rivers and lakes will be solved according to the rules of the rivers and lakes, to tell the truth, I Wan Qiuyang still has a little selfishness, after all, I have some relationship with this child, and when he walks out of the shrine, he will respond to that sentence, life and death are in the sky, wealth and nobility are in life, what will happen to you when the time comes, Wan Mou will never stop it." ”

The man in white tidied up his wide sleeves and said calmly: "The junior waits for him to walk out of the shrine, if he dies inside, the junior should tell the world the truth." ”

The man in white walked away slowly.

Just as he stepped towards the stone steps, Xiao Jiansheng squinted at the back of the man in white, and asked in a cold voice, "You are the son of Nanguo An, who came to kill me?"

An Gongzi stopped and chuckled: "Yes, to be precise, it is not to kill you, but to return your luck to the world, or it can also be said that you are here for the peace of the world, the reason should be better than me, why An Mou did not do it on the way you came, this is the meaning of the predecessors, if I intercept you on Liuyue Island, it seems that the people of the martial arts will only bully the juniors, so you can find an opportunity in the shrine, if you can come out to fight with me, it is understandable that you fight for your life, I have an explanation for the people of the world." ”

Xiao Jiansheng said with a smile: "I'm not used to your martial arts people's self-righteous statement, killing is killing, how can there be so many high-sounding excuses, obviously it is to do things for the Fengtian Dynasty, and to be a dog for the Fengtian Court, why bother to justify yourself." ”

Gongzi An sneered: "The one who is about to die, An doesn't want to have a war of words with you, but An is very curious, why can you still laugh when death is coming?"

Xiao Jiansheng still smiled: "Because I am confident, laughter is a manifestation of self-confidence, I laugh at you martial arts people are too ridiculous, laughing at the world is too disgusting, can I?"

Gongzi An nodded and said, "Live well, An is waiting for you to return." ”

Xiao Jiansheng watched An Gongzi walk into the darkness.

looked back at the old woman, bowed down and said, "Thank you seniors, the juniors have nothing to do." ”

Wan Qiuyang waved his hand.

Xiao Jiansheng walked far away, and Wan Qiuyang's chuckling voice came from the leisurely stone corridor: "Child, live well." ”

Xiao Jiansheng walked out of the Thunder Temple quickly.

The woman waited next to the stone steps of the Thunder Temple, she watched Xiao Jiansheng come over, and said with a chuckle: "Prepare, the shrine will open tomorrow." ”

Xiao Jiansheng nodded slightly, and suddenly remembered the hot tea that the woman gave him, and naturally knew that the woman had placed refreshing medicine in the tea, so he smiled and said, "Senior sister has worked hard, can you tell me the name." ”

The woman smiled coldly: "It's ridiculously tight, I call your master Senior Sister Yue, and you call me Senior Sister again, what's the reason?"

Xiao Jiansheng suddenly patted his forehead in embarrassment, and hurriedly bowed to the woman to apologize, the woman waved her hand lightly and smiled: "Painting Yingying, you call the painter uncle." ”

Xiao Jiansheng really couldn't shout, so he bowed deeply at Hua Yingying and hurriedly slipped away.
