Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Valley of the Deaf and Dumb, All Beings
Because of Ding Chunqiu's affairs, a lot of time was delayed, and when everyone arrived at the Deaf and Dumb Valley of Drum Mountain, there were already many people gathered in the valley, and many of them were old acquaintances.
"Master, it's been a long time." His gaze swept over Gu Mozhi's somewhat gloomy face, and Li Xuan hugged his fists as if he had met an old friend who had not seen him for many years.
"Murong Shi, don't come unharmed." Gu Mozhi's eyes narrowed. There was a Buddha horn in his mouth, and after a slight salute, he stopped making a sound, but his slightly lowered face was not good-looking, and Gu Mozhi was quite depressed to find that it seemed that every time he met Li Xuan, nothing good would happen, and the injuries of the first battle of Yanziwu had just subsided, but now he was led out of his heart by this Zhenlong chess game, and he almost went crazy, although he woke up in time, but his current state is extremely bad.
Li Xuan nodded, but his eyes fell on the position in the middle of the valley, the valley display is not luxurious, but extremely exquisite, although Li Xuan does not know the art of Qimen Dunjia, but he still understands some of the formation, although the valley in front of him is not big, but there are not many buildings but give people a feeling of being connected, in the center of the valley, there is a chess scale that occupies almost half of the space of the valley, two chess players are in the most central position, one of the old men with an indifferent expression, I think it is the deaf and dumb old man Su Xinghe, and the other is also an acquaintance, the first of the four evildoers, is full of evil in Yanqing.
Yue Laosan and Ye Erniang were lined up on both sides of Duan Yanqing, seeing Li Xuan's arrival, their eyes couldn't help flashing a touch of vigilance, in addition, there was also panic, after all, almost all the masters of Xixia Yipintang, including the head manager Helian Tieshu, were lost in Wuxi, which caused a lot of storm between the high-level leaders of the two countries, and combined with the previous scene of meeting Li Xuan in the suburbs of Gusu, even the more stupid Yue Laosan could detect the problem. In addition, the beggar gang began to actively correct Nan Murong's name after that, and the countless versions circulated in the rivers and lakes are enough to prove that this Nan Murong is definitely a dangerous place, and it is better not to provoke it.
Only Duan Yanqing seemed to be in some special state at the moment. ignored the arrival of Li Xuan and his party, and all the spirit was concentrated on the chessboard.
The atmosphere in the valley is definitely not harmonious, there are the notorious four villains, of course, now there are only three villains left, and there is a Shaolin Xuanzi monk and a group of monks, as well as a group of three religions and nine streams, Su Xinghe posted. only asks about chess skills, not about good and evil, but this time, almost all of them are masters of good and evil, and it is strange that there is no chemical reaction in such a situation.
What's more, there is a Duan Yu on his side, which involves the love-hate entanglement of the Duan clan in Dali, and it is estimated that when Duan Yanqing comes back to his senses later, he should use his crutches.
Li Xuan naturally knew the secret between Duan Yu and Duan Yanqing. However, this secret is not ready to be told at the moment, after all, whether it is Duan Yu or Duan Yanqing. At this moment, Li Xuan owes no favor at all, and before enough interests are involved, Li Xuan would rather keep this matter in his heart than say it.
On the contrary, it was a scene where father and son did not know each other, but were like enemies meeting, and Li Xuan was happy to watch.
On the chessboard, the confrontation between the two sides has obviously reached the most critical moment. Duan Yanqing's state at this moment was obviously on the verge of going mad.
"Hum~"
Suddenly, Duan Yanqing picked up the crutch in his hand, and used enough strength to slam it on his head, if this cane is solid, it is estimated that there will be no more four evildoers on the rivers and lakes from now on. With Ye Erniang and Yue Laosan, they can't support the name of the four evildoers.
"Donor, stop!" A little monk suddenly sprang out and messed up the chessboard in front of him.
Li Xuan's eyebrows were slightly raised, and his eyes looked at the chessboard a little strangely, this Zhenlong chess game was said by the old man Jin to be amazing, Duan Yanqing's chess skills in the original book can be called the national player, but at that moment just now, Li Xuan clearly sensed the disorder of the opponent's mental fluctuations at that moment, and even the skills in his body appeared a momentary riot at that moment, this chess game actually had the effect of affecting people's minds?
"I lost, thank you." Duan Yanqing woke up from his previous strange state at this moment, his forehead was full of cold sweat, and he arched his hand at Su Xinghe, but the second half of the sentence was said to the hateful little monk.
Seeing this little monk, Li Xuanyan zhòng doubted the life experience of this little monk, that day he disguised himself as Qiao Feng and broke into Shaolin at night, naturally he had also seen Abbot Xuanci, and even had a fight, in terms of appearance alone, Abbot Xuanci was definitely not ugly, and although Ye Erniang's appearance was ruined, she could feel from the outline that she should still be a good beauty in the past, otherwise it would be impossible for a monk to move his heart, just the crystallization of the two, the image of Xuzhu, the third male protagonist in Tianlong, is really flatteringAt this moment, Li Xuan was extremely suspicious of his true background.
Duan Yanqing, who stood up at this moment, also noticed Li Xuan's cunning, Yan Zòng flashed a flash of vigilance, but he didn't have Ye Erniang's appearance like a great enemy, he just nodded slightly towards Li Xuan, and when he looked at Duan Yu, a touch of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, but then he didn't mean to do it immediately, and withdrew from the chess scale with Ye Erniang and Yue Laosan, which was regarded as a trace of respect for the deaf and dumb old man.
Duan Yanqing and Gu Mozhi admitted defeat one after another, and the other people present were basically stage frightened, regardless of the kung fu and intricate identities of the two, people who know some chess skills alone can see that now the two have abandoned their sons and admitted defeat, and even Duan Yanqing almost committed suicide with a cane, so that this Zhenlong chess game is covered with a layer of mysterious magic, attracting everyone's attention, but it makes people extremely jealous, for fear of becoming the next Duan Yanqing.
"Murong Gongzi?" Duan Yu cast an inquiring glance at Li Xuan, although he was beaten by Li Xuan that day, and he was embarrassed, but the thought of this competition in his heart has never been extinguished.
Duan Yu knows Duan Yanqing's chess strength, even if he is strong, he is not too strong, but just like martial arts, when he reaches a certain realm, even if it is only a gap between victory and defeat, Duan Yu still has quite confidence in his chess skills.
"Duan Gongzi, please first." Li Xuan raised his hand and motioned for Duan Yu to invite first.
"It's ugly." Duan Yu nodded, but his gaze stayed on Wang Yuyan at this moment, but what disappointed him was that the beauty didn't look at him at all at this moment.
"Cousin, do you think Duan Gongzi will win?" Duan Yu on the chessboard had already begun to fall, and Wang Yuyan couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Not sure, probably not." Li Xuan shook his head, losing is certain, if the Zhenlong chess game is according to the various versions of later generations, in the final analysis, it is just taking advantage of a blind spot in human nature, but if you want to break it, even if you have some understanding of Li Xuan, you don't dare to be completely sure, not to mention Duan Yu in the center, this is no longer a matter of chess strength, but to rise to another height, at least the current Duan Yu, it is difficult for Li Xuan to feel the spirit that can be put to death and then born.
Time passed little by little, Duan Yu's falling speed was getting slower and slower, and many people present had begun to leave, after all, this place was just a place to play chess, although most of them were people from the rivers and lakes, but this kind of elegant place, after all, was not suitable for solving grievances in the rivers and lakes, without Ding Chunqiu's trouble, those people in the rivers and lakes were still obedient, but Duan Yanqing, looking at Duan Yu in the chess scale, a fierce light flashed in his eyes from time to time.
After two hours passed, Duan Yu's forehead had begun to permeate sweat, and a white son was pinched between his fingers, but he didn't go down for a long time, and finally shook his head regretfully, and abandoned his son to admit defeat.
"Miss Wang, I lost." What made Zhu Danchen and the other four guards collectively speechless was that their own son did not run to his side, but ran to Li Xuan's side first and sighed bitterly to Wang Yuyan, as if he had failed others' hopes.
"Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, not to mention that it is just a game of chess, and Duan Gongzi does not have to be arrogant." Wang Yuyan smiled and shook her head, although polite, she had a full sense of distance.
Touching a soft nail, Duan Yu returned to Zhu Danchen's four people with some stupidity, facing the strange eyes of the four people, their faces were bitter, and the four of them could only sigh helplessly.
"Murong Gongzi, do you want to try it?" As if thinking of something, Duan Yu suddenly turned his head to look at Li Xuandao.
"Naturally, I'm going." Li Xuan could roughly guess Duan Yu's thoughts, but he didn't pay much attention to them, and looked at Wang Yuyan beside him and said, "Cousin, come together, your opportunity has arrived." ”
Good luck?
Duan Yu listened inexplicably for a while, and couldn't help but look at Wang Yuyan, but saw that Wang Yuyan was also puzzled, but she didn't make a sound, and nodded gently, for her, the reason didn't matter.
Looking at the backs of the two of them walking hand in hand, as if they were a pair of fairy couples in the dusk, Duan Yu suddenly felt a heart-piercing pain in his heart.
Sitting opposite Su Xinghe, opening his mouth to say hello or something, it seemed a little redundant for a person who pretended to be deaf and dumb, Li Xuan was not polite, and after a general glance at the situation on the chessboard, he picked up the chess piece and put it on with a snap.
Su Xinghe frowned, raised his head, glanced at him, and a sunspot fell.
Li Xuan followed the second son and came down, this was a suicide move, the chessboard was instantly emptied of a large piece, Su Xinghe fell again, Li Xuan followed and took another step down, and so on, after more than a dozen hands, a large space was already vacated on the chessboard, and it was pointed out that almost all of them were white, and a few blacks were struggling to support.
Different from the previous moves, the previous few people, almost every step, had to think for a long time, but right now, Li Xuan and Su Xinghe are almost racing, often just after a piece falls, the opponent's chess pieces have also fallen.
"Miss Azhu, is Murong Gongzi not able to do this?" Listening to the crisp sound of falling children, the corners of Duan Yu's mouth couldn't help twitching, and he leaned over to Ah Zhu's side, although his tone was flat, but at this moment, he felt a little gloating.
"Shut up!" Wu Qingying glanced at Duan Yu coldly, and there was a cold tone in her tone.
Duan Yu pursed his lips and retreated, but he was faintly happy in his heart, this kind of love is the nature of human beings, it has nothing to do with good and evil, between love and enemies, if you are not good, it is a sunny day, it is definitely an unchanging truth from ancient times to the present, Duan Yu is obviously verifying the correctness of the truth again.
