Chapter 553: Sun, Moon and Stars

"Let's take a look at the [Way of Heaven] first. ”

Step into the fork in the road, walk into it, and slowly move dozens of steps. At the beginning, it was extremely narrow, and only after 50 meters did it suddenly open up.

The roof of the cave is about 10 meters, and the left and right sides are open to a distance of 2 meters.

As I walked forward, I saw a stream in front of me.

Unfathomable, the clear water is cold, and the cold air is coming out.

Chen Jing had to take out an air cushion raft from the mustard seed sac, inflate it, float on the pool, and then paddle to the inside.

It is 2 kilometers away, and finally you go ashore and see a pavilion.

In the pavilion was a chessboard, and across from him sat a dried corpse.

The dry corpse was wearing an apricot yellow robe, with snow-white hair, in a bun, and a delicate jade crown.

Just this outfit is incredibly expensive.

It's just that the description of the withered corpse is really the same as the corpse soaked in formalin in the museum.

It's a bit infiltrating.

But when he got closer, he didn't smell the smell of corpses, but there was a strange smell of sandalwood.

This corpse is here, and I don't know how many tens of thousands of years have passed. There is such a strong fragrance. ’

In front of the corpse, there was the chessboard, and I don't know what kind of chess was played.

In short, it can't be Go and Xiangqi.

Xiangqi first appeared in the late Qin Dynasty, and the earliest record of Go is in Zuo Chuan, which is said to have existed in the era of Yao Shunyu.

But even so, these two kinds of chess, compared with this Penglai Immortal Island, are still very young.

Therefore, the chessboard in front of this dry corpse is neither Go nor chess.

The chess pieces on the chessboard are also very quirky.

There are only three kinds, one is the sun, two is the moon, and three is the stars.

On the ground next to this, there is a line of words written on the side of the futon - [The overcomer, you can get the "Penglai Ancestral Sutra"]!

This means that someone is going to play chess with this corpse.

If you can win, you can get the "Penglai Ancestral Sutra".

"Isn't the Penglai Ancestral Sutra the classic that Sikong Jia cultivated?"

Chen Jing suddenly became suspicious.

But soon, he also figured it out.

"This [Penglai Ancestral Sutra] should be the real [Penglai Ancestral Sutra], the bottom of the box immortal book of Penglai Immortal Island. And Sikong's "Penglai Ancestral Scripture" should be an impostor. ”

After all, the ancient ancestor of the Sikong family was just an external child on Penglai Immortal Island. With his identity, how could he be qualified to cultivate the true [Penglai Ancestral Sutra]?

Staring at the chessboard and looking at it again, Chen Jing became difficult again.

"This chess, there are no rules, let alone a way to play, how can this be played?"

Judging by the situation on the chessboard, both sides have only three chess pieces - the sun, the moon, and the stars.

Moreover, they are all arranged in a straight line, which looks like a six-star alignment.

"This routine is like an endgame, but I don't understand the gameplay or the rules, how can I break the game?"

There are often scammers on the road in the world who play an endgame to deceive people, and what they earn is the psychology that passers-by will win.

But the premise is that passers-by must know chess, and if they don't know chess, they can't be cheated.

"Whatever, if you lose, will there be a legacy?"

Chen Jing muttered to himself, stretched out his hand and tried to get the chess pieces.

This broken chessboard doesn't look like much, it's very simple, it's just a generous stone, and the chess pieces are even more black charcoal-like pebbles.

The workmanship is not very exquisite, but it is like the plaything of primitive people.

But when he pinched a chess piece, he found that the chess piece weighed more than a thousand catties and was difficult to move.

And, after he touched the chess piece, the surrounding environment changed suddenly.

It was as if it had been illuminated by a colored marquee, and then had retreated with that light. There are mountains and rivers, pavilions and water pavilions, warblers, swallows, flowers, and birds.

Even the chessboard has changed its image, and it has a new look, as if it were made of gold.

And the six chess pieces have also changed from black charcoal to crystal.

Red crystal on one side and green crystal on the other.

The imprint of the sun, moon and stars is still there, and the shape of the furnishings is still a straight line.

Look at the dried corpse again.

I saw that he had a childish face, and he didn't know when he regained his vitality, his face was ruddy, and his huge eagle eyes were full of energy.

Chen Jing couldn't help but take a step back.

Looking at the man carefully, he thought that he was really alive, but under the observation of the [Son of Heaven Hope Qi Technique], he did not find that there was a resurgence of vitality in this person's body.

But a second ago, this person was still a dry corpse, but at this time, he had a childish face and a strong spirit, and compared with the two, the gap was huge.

Chen Jing felt quite weird.

"Please play chess!"

The "dry corpse" suddenly spoke, motionless, and its mouth did not open. But Chen Jing was sure that he said this.

"How to move this chess?" Chen Jing took another step back, more cautious.

"You can go whatever you want. Inside the dry corpse, an answer came again.

"You have to tell me how to get off, right?" Chen Jing said.

As he spoke, he looked around, and when he turned around, he saw that the way he had come was gone.

Here, it seems that it has changed into another heaven and earth space.

"Go with your heart. The dry corpse echoed again.

Chen Jing felt that his head was a little big, and he went down as he pleased? This means that he is in chaos.

"If so, what if you lose, and what if you win?"

"If you win, you will be created, and if you lose, you will be created. ”

"What do you mean by my creation?"

"It means that if you lose, you have to stay here. ”

“......”

Chen Jing's eyes condensed, he had guessed correctly before, this opportunity was indeed not so easy to get.

If you win, you can take away the creation.

If you lose, you have to leave your life here.

Frowning and pausing, Chen Jing did not flinch after all.

This endgame scared others, but it couldn't scare him.

'It's okay not to tell me the rules, I have the ability to be accurate, and I can evolve steps in my mind. If you can regret the game many times, you are not afraid that you will not find a way to break the game. ’

Thinking like this, he quickly verified the endgame move in his mind.

After spending about 20 centimeters, he finally figured out the right path.

He came to the chessboard, picked up the star chess piece and moved it to the moon.

This time, it is estimated that it can be called the star arch moon.

After he took this step, the green chess piece on the opposite side automatically changed and immediately advanced a step forward in the sun chess.

Chen Jing wrinkled his brows, and calculated the next step with accuracy in his heart. It also took more than 20 centimeters of spiritual thread to find the second best position and drop down.

Anyway, what the rules are, he still hasn't figured it out.

The accuracy rate costs a lot of spirit threads, so it's a big deal to make up for it with some spirit stones.

And so it went on for half an hour.

It's just an endgame, but it's been going on for so long.

In the end, it was Chen Jing whose sun set at the end of the day, and then the entire chessboard shone with golden light.

Then, the opponent's green chess pieces exploded one after another.

"Good chess skills!"

The dry corpse praised it, and then the cool breeze blew here, and the heavens and the earth changed again.

The surrounding scenes and furnishings have returned to their original time again.

'What a good chess player, I still haven't figured it out. Chen Jing smiled bitterly in his heart.

When I looked at the dried corpse again, I saw that it had turned into powder, and when the wind blew, it dissipated.

On the chessboard, the three red chess pieces suddenly condensed into one place, turned into a piece of red jade, and lay quietly.

"Is this the only thing that hides the [Penglai Ancestral Sutra]?"

Picking up the jade slip, Chen Jing was quite surprised.
