Chapter 432: The Chess Player
Hearing her talk about this, Xu Lai also smiled and said: "This time, Uncle Bao has finally pulled back a game." ”
"Yes, with Xiao Feng, an old fox, the situation is still very different." Xu Ruomei said seriously.
"Well, I recorded that." Xu said.
"Sleep on the street at night and you!"
The sister and brother fought for a while before they got back to the point.
"Now in this game of chess, the opponent's layout should be almost complete." Xu Lai said with some solemnity.
"Well, I'm afraid it's time for the end." Xu Ruomei pondered for a while, "In fact, the most critical wrestling at present lies in the feng shui array. ”
She landed a son on each of the four corners of the chessboard: "The four ghost gates in the southeast, northwest, and northwest are guarded by Sister Qingzi, Brother Lu Jing, Sect Master Ru and Mr. Ye respectively. There is a big seal on the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, which is guarded by Master Yu, and Lingqi has found another big seal in the Five Thunder Mountain, and after the lock demon array is repaired by you, it can barely be supported. ”
"In addition, on an island in Tianchi and the East China Sea, a large seal was also found." Xu Ruomei landed another son in two of them.
Xu Lai also landed two sons in the hinterland of the chessboard, and their positions were all in the area of Shuzhong, "There are also two big seals here." ”
This is the result of more than half a month of deduction and exploration before Xu Lai.
"But that's not where that's the most critical." Xu Lai frowned and said.
These big seals are all places where evil spirits are sealed in the great feng shui array, if the seals are loosened and the evil spirits below escape, it is indeed a serious consequence, but this is not the most important problem at present.
Nowadays, the feng shui is turbulent, and ghosts are frequent in the world, and the root of its troubles still lies in the ghost gate!
The so-called ghost gate is the core eye of the feng shui array.
Once there is a problem with the ghost gate, the entire Feng Shui Great Array will inevitably vibrate violently, and even more serious will even lead to the destruction of the Great Array.
According to Xu Lai's repeated calculations, in addition to the four major ghost gates in the southeast, northwest and northwest, there should be another ghost gate in the feng shui array, which is located in the center of the feng shui array, which is the most critical place.
Now that there are frequent visions in the world, it should be that this ghost gate is in trouble.
So for the current situation, which side can be the first to find the location of this ghost gate and stabilize it again is the key to victory or defeat!
The two siblings deliberated repeatedly until midnight.
Xu Lai got up and stretched, stretching his muscles.
"Tired?" Xu Ruomei said with a smile.
"Isn't it?" Xu Lai took Xu Ruomei and his own cup, and went back with two glasses of water.
"You are the chess player designated by Sister Qingzi, and of course everyone and everything is coordinated by you." Xu Ruomei picked up the cup and took a sip of water and said.
"It's a lot of pressure, you see I can't sleep at night, I have dark circles under my eyes." Xu Lai pointed to his eyelids and said.
"Alright, you'll do it!" Xu Ruomei scolded with a smile, not to mention anything else, just in terms of this psychological quality, this product was definitely brought out by Sister Qingzi.
"By the way, do you have any news from my master?" Xu Lai asked.
Xu Ruomei shook her head and said, "No." ”
Since five years ago, Lu Jing, Qingzi, Sect Master Ru and Mr. Ye entered the Ghost Gate, there has been no news, and there has been no news.
The two siblings glanced at each other, both with some doubts in their eyes, but neither said anything.
Although these four are all masters of magic skills, the four major ghost gates are important for the feng shui array, and they are very old, and they don't know what evil ghosts and beasts are hidden in them, and it is difficult to say anything.
"It's fine." The siblings comforted each other.
Seeing that it was not early, I was ready to rest.
"You sleep in my house, I'll go next door." Xu Ruomei got up and said.
"Okay." Xu Lai is also welcome.
I went to wash up, changed my clothes, and went to bed.
Soon after lying down, he received one from Chen Duo; "What are you doing?"
"Sleep." Xu said.
"Where's your sister?" Chen Duo asked.
"Next door." Xu back and forth.
"Damn, why didn't you tell me earlier that your sister was here, making me so embarrassed!" It turned out that Miss Chen asked so much, just to see if Xu Ruomei was not around, and as soon as she heard that she was not there, she immediately showed her minions.
"It's good, what's a shame?" Xu Lai was puzzled.
"You don't see what I'm wearing, do you? The cloak is scattered, and I haven't even washed my face! Chen Duo was angry.
"My sister is not a man, why are you cleaning up so beautifully?" Xu Lai was puzzled.
"You have to be beautiful in front of women, you know what!" Chen Duo sent a few expressions of contempt in a row.
"Okay, okay." Xu went back and forth, in fact, he still didn't understand the logic in this.
"By the way, Meimei is your sister?" Chen Duo asked suspiciously, she always knew that Xu Lai had a sister, and there was also a cousin, but she didn't know where she came from.
Mei Mei ......
Xu Lai was speechless for a while, the name between women is really terrible.
"This ......" Xu Lai really can't say, what kind of relationship Xu Ruomei is with him, "Cousin?" "It doesn't seem to be.
"Anyway, it's the kind that is closer than my own sister." Xu said.
"Oh, that's it." Chen Duo probably understood, "By the way, when will you go back to Jiangning?" ”
"In a few days." Xu said.
"Oh."
After the two talked for a while, Chen Duo went to sleep first.
Xu looked at his phone for a while, and then turned over and fell asleep.
In the next two days, Xu Lai stayed here, eating and drinking. On the evening of the third day, Xu Ruomei took the disciples of Kunlun Mansion and set off back to the Kunlun Courtyard in Junshan to return to Ning Que and Ning Yuan.
After Xu Lai left Rong County, he headed all the way east, preparing to return to Jiangning first.
It wasn't long after he hit the road that he suddenly received a strange phone call.
"You're in Dazhou?"
The caller was none other than Zhou Tong, who had been missing for more than half a year.
"Don't scold me yet, can you hurry up and come to Dazhou first!" On the other end of the phone, the girl was crying as soon as she opened her mouth, and her voice was anxious.
"What's going on?" Xu Lai asked, while asking the taxi master to turn around and divert to the station.
"I ...... I've found my brother's traces, come here! Zhou Tong said anxiously.
Xu Lai asked her to report the specific address, and after arriving at the station, she changed the route to Dazhou.
In the evening of the next day, Xu Lai arrived in Dazhou, and was just about to take a taxi when he heard someone shouting: "Brother Xu! Brother Xu! ”
When he looked back, he saw a person rushing straight towards him, and his eyebrows fluttered with color, it was Huo Xixian, a local tyrant young master who had not seen him for many days.
Behind him, Uncle Guan was still running out of breath.
"Why are you here?" Xu Lai was a little surprised.
Although this Dazhou is the territory of the Huo family, he didn't know it before he came.
"Hehe, Sister Zhou Tong said!" Horch smiled idly.
Uncle Guan bowed to Xu Lai and smiled, "Dean, let's get in the car first." ”
While talking, a driver came over in a luxury car and picked up the three of them in the car.
"Did Zhou Tong say hello to you?" Xu Lai asked with a smile.
"Ha, Brother Xu, you don't know, the address Zhou Tong gave you is my house!" Huo Xi's eyebrows fluttered.
Xu Lai didn't expect this.
"It's a long story, Brother Xu, I'll tell you slowly." Huo Xi pulled Xu idly and said.
It turned out that Zhou Tong had always been obsessed with his brother's affairs, and he didn't believe that he was just dreaming of his younger brother because he missed him, so he left the Dragon and Tiger Courtyard with Sun Dewu, and wandered around the north and the south of the world to visit.
During this time, she dreamed of her brother several times, and after tracing the past according to the dream, it never came to fruition.
Until a few days ago, she and Sun Dewu came to Dazhou.
The two of them have been wandering around for most of the year, they are also tired and tired, their savings have been spent, and they thought that Huo Xixian's kid was in Dazhou, so they thought about borrowing some money from him first.
Due to the internal affairs of the Huo family, Huo Xi stayed at home for most of the time, and he couldn't go to the Dragon and Tiger Courtyard alone.
When I saw Zhou Tong and Sun Dewu coming to the door this time, I was so happy that I couldn't let them go, and I must stay at home for a few more days.
Zhou Tong didn't think about where to go next for a while, so he took Sun Dewu to live in Huo's house, planning to rest for a few days.
It's just that I didn't expect that on the night of three days ago, Zhou Tong suddenly dreamed of her brother again.
And there are several scenes in the dream, which are in the Huo family.
After waking up from the dream, Zhou Tong didn't care about the middle of the night, so he ran directly to wake Huo Xixian up from his sleep, and pulled him to turn the Huo family up and down.
But I haven't been able to find anything special.
Until the next night, Zhou Tong was depressed, ran outside alone, and accidentally saw a fashionably dressed young girl sitting alone on a garden bench.
At this time, it was getting late, and there was no one nearby, so Zhou Tong thought about going over to talk to her.
As a result, as soon as she took a step, she saw a scene that made her heart tremble.
I don't know where a group of green fireflies suddenly appeared, swirling around the top of the girl's head, in the night, it was very weird.
Zhou Tong resisted the excitement and fear in her heart, and in view of her brother's previous experience, she did not dare to act rashly, so she quietly hid to the side and kept observing the girl's movements.
But at this time, a group of people entered the park, and was startled by the voice, and the girl suddenly trembled, and got up from the chair, and then the green fireflies above her head disappeared without a trace.
Zhou Tong secretly shouted bad luck, and when he saw that the girl was leaving, he hurriedly followed.
As a result, after three turns and two turns, Zhou Tong was not familiar with the environment here, so he lost people.
Fortunately, she made a note of the girl's figure and appearance, and quickly ran back to find Huo Xixian for help.
But things went much smoother than she had imagined, and Horch listened to her description, and slapped his thigh and said that this man seemed to be one of his cousins.
At that time, he took Zhou Tong to his uncle's house, and found out his cousin to Zhou Tong, who was really the girl in the park.
Huo Xixian knew the inside story of Qingying's case, and he was so anxious that he patted his head and immediately found an excuse to take his cousin to Huo's house.
After that, the three of them secretly observed for another night, and found that as Zhou Tong said, as long as there was no one around, there would be a hovering green firefly above his cousin's head.
Zhou Tong immediately called Xu Lai and asked him for help, which is why he is doing this now.
The car drove very fast, and when Huo Xixian finished explaining the matter, he had already arrived at the door of the Huo family's villa.
Uncle Guan went down to arrange other things, and Huo Xixian led Xu Lai over to find Zhou Tong.
"I heard that your brother went abroad?" Xu Lai asked while looking at the layout of the Huo family.
"yes." Speaking of this, Huo Xixian, who had been smiling, was also a little more gloomy.
The Huo family brothers fought to kill each other, but in fact, there was also a clash between the mage sects behind it. Since the battle of Shufangzhai, Huo Xixian returned to the Huo family, and with the support of his father, Huo Xi'an was kicked out.
Soon after, Huo's father also began to semi-retire and moved to live elsewhere, so at present, this villa is mainly occupied by Huo Xi.
The two soon went up to the second floor, and when they entered the living room, they saw two girls sitting on the sofa, chattering together.
Hearing the footsteps, the two turned their heads to look at each other.
"You're here, it's fast!" Zhou Tong frowned and jumped up happily.
"Seeing that you were in a hurry, I had to rush over overnight." Xu Lai said with a smile.
In addition, the girl wore a pair of gold-wire glasses, looked at Si Swenwen, and also stood up, and glanced at Xu Lai with a little curiosity.
"This is my cousin An Zixin." Huo Xixian introduced, "This is Brother Xu." ”
An Zixin shouted "Brother Xu" in a delicate voice, but the boss was strange in her heart, and she couldn't help but look at Xu Lai a few more times.
You must know that his cousin is usually above the top, and no one cares about him, and it is really hard for her to imagine that he will call someone else brother one day.
Mage is unmatched
