Chapter 378: Invitation

Ji Qingyuan looked at Ji Jiashu's gaze, his eyes were slightly deep, and he didn't say anything.

"The final round of this year's individual battle looks like it's going to be very exciting." He quietly watched the girl sitting by the chessboard in the courtyard.

"There is no year when the last round will not be exciting," Ji Qingyuan also looked at Yingbaoyue Dao in the courtyard.

The final round of the individual battle is the least suspenseful item of the beginner ceremony, and it is the climax of the beginner ceremony. The content of the game returns to the essence of the cultivator, fighting with the sword and fighting to the last person.

This is the highest wrestling field of the four major sword sects, and it is also a concentrated display of what all practitioners have learned in their lifetimes.

Looking at Ji Jiashu's eyes, Ji Qingyuan knew that he was looking forward to seeing Ying Baoyue's swordsmanship.

Merely......

"Do you think she can't win this round?" Ji Qingyuan looked at the girl in the courtyard who was discussing Go with Guichen and said lightly, "I'm starting to look forward to the next round." ”

Ji Jiashu was stunned when he heard this, and then shook his head, "The swordsmanship is just something I suddenly remembered, as for the second round of ...... after the big one."

"I don't know," he said seriously. ”

Whether this woman can win or not, he doesn't know.

This judgment is actually not difficult to make, and any high-level cultivator knows that it is difficult.

He didn't have the slightest clue how she was going to win, but he wasn't going to make up his mind about her.

"I don't know how she's going to win, but maybe there's a way for her words," Ji Jiashu stepped out of the threshold as she looked at the girl in the courtyard staring at the chessboard with a focused expression.

"The chessboard is here, the chess pieces are there, and now it's just ......" Just as he passed, Guichen, who was standing on the chessboard, looked at the chessboard on the ground and suddenly muttered.

The second half of the sentence was not finished, but he knew that someone understood what he meant.

The chessboard is there, the chess pieces are there, and for her, now there are only opponents left.

Chess strength is not something that can be increased by one or two, even if it is just practice, Guichen knows very well that he can't be her opponent in this round.

Now he can't be her sparring partner.

According to Ying Baoyue's previous analysis, the opponent she will face is likely to be someone stronger than Helan Cheng, so there is only one person who can be her opponent here.

This sentence was directed at Ying Huyue, and it was also for the young man who passed by them.

Ji Jiashu, who was walking towards the door, paused slightly.

Guichen looked at Ying Baoyue, who was staring at the chessboard in front of him, but he didn't speak, and he was a little anxious.

He didn't seem to be really ready to pass by them just now, and Guichen didn't understand why Ying Baoyue, who had seen him coming earlier, didn't immediately ask him to be her opponent.

But to be honest, if she really wants to prepare for the competition, she just went directly to Ji Jiashu's yard is the most suitable. Although Guichen didn't like to see her pass, he was ready to accompany her.

But Ying Baoyue directly carved a chessboard in the Qing'an Courtyard.

Seeing Ji Jiashu stop, Guichen knew that he also understood what he meant.

She's so smart that she doesn't know that playing against the examiner before a competition is good for improving her game.

But Ying Baoyue didn't ask for it, she just smiled when she heard the words, and still just looked at the chessboard on the ground intently.

Ji Jiashu paused, turned to look at Ying Baoyue beside Guichen, "Time is running out, do you need me to be your opponent?" ”

Ying Baoyue was stunned when she heard this, and finally raised her head from the chessboard and looked at him with some surprise, "I thought you wouldn't propose that." ”

He thought so, too.

Ji Jiashu took a slight breath, although he was sorry for her, but he did suppress the idea of helping her just now, and was ready to walk over like this.

As for why he stopped, he didn't know.

"Thank you," Ying Baoyue smiled and looked at him and said, "Thank you for being so embarrassed and trying to help me." ”

She knows. Ji Jiashu was stunned when he heard this.

"But it's still not," Ying Baoyue said as she looked at Ji Jiashu, "You are the examiner, and it is unfair to the other participants to help the candidates prepare." ”

With Ji Jiashu's upright character, he should have borne a lot of guilt when he raised this sentence

Fair......

Ji Jiashu's eyes condensed slightly when he heard this, he was indeed out of the responsibility of the examiner just now, and he didn't plan to speak. But to be honest, in all fairness, this kind of help that no one would know about outside the field is harmless in the eyes of ordinary cultivators.

He was ready to break his principles, but she still insisted on her fairness, whether others were fair or not.

Ji Jiashu looked at Ying Baoyue, "I really don't need to ......"

"Well, it's okay," Ying Baoyue looked at him and smiled.

"Besides, I'm going to stay up all night, and I didn't bother before, because I was worried that it would affect your rest."

"Let me do it myself." She said.

Then Ying Baoyue sat cross-legged on the side of the chessboard, and at the same time grabbed the black and white chess pieces.

Since she was like this, Ji Jiashu nodded when she heard this, and finally left Qing'an Courtyard.

As for her all-nighter, Ji Jiashu didn't think much about it at that time.

But then he learned.

The girl really sat in front of the chessboard for two or two nights.

……

……

Time enters the third after the end of the medical drug war.

The two passed like this, and the originally leisurely atmosphere in Danyang City finally became tense again.

Just because of Ming, the second round of the individual battle of the beginner ceremony is about to begin.

All the cultivators were ready to go, and Ji Jiashu was also a little curious about how Yingyue was prepared. He came to Qing'an Courtyard to take a look at the situation, but he didn't expect to encounter an unexpected situation.

"Out of the house?" Ji Jiashu asked unexpectedly.

Ji Qingyuan, who was standing at the gate of the courtyard, also looked at the chessboard in the courtyard that had only been carved in the first two, but because someone had touched it countless times, the intersections had become blurred.

The girl sat on the chessboard with astonishing energy and endurance, and stood up a few times. The one who stood up the most was to help Helan Cheng, who came to visit again, to get a needle.

And just this morning, when Helan came, he not only brought a face, but also a letter.

"Letter?" Ji Jiashu was puzzled, "A letter written by the Northern Wei Dynasty? ”

"That's right," Ji Qingyuan nodded, looking at Ji Jiashu, who was instantly vigilant in her eyes, she smiled, "It's not the people you think, it's just an ordinary woman who wrote it." ”

Woman?

Ji Jiashu was even more stunned when he heard this, without the slightest clue, "What does that letter do?" Why is she not here now? ”

"That letter is actually an invitation," Ji Qingyuan looked at Ji Jiashu and said with a subtle expression, "The owner of the letter is her birthday today, and she invites Her Royal Highness the princess to go out for a gathering." ”

Today's birthday?

Ji Jiashu's first reaction was what kind of trap this was, but it didn't feel right.

"So who is the invite?" He frowned at his brother.

"You probably don't know each other," Ji Qingyuan's expression was a little subtle, and he came up with the name of the invitation.

Ji Jiashu was stunned when he heard this.

The person who invited Ying Baoyue to go out today was indeed an ordinary person.

The name echoed in his ears, and that man was ......

The younger sister of Meng Shi, the stepson of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Meng Ge.
