Chapter 421: Chessboard
Qi Wan was still young when he studied medicine with Yuanhe Dao Chang in Qiyueguan, and he had not fully grown up.
Therefore, although she is also familiar with the brothers in the view, after so many years, I am afraid that there are not many people who can remember her appearance.
The little Dao boy in front of him looked like he was only in his teens, and it was impossible to remember her.
That......
Seeing that Qingqi was puzzled, Xiaodao Tong smiled and showed two little tiger teeth, took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Qingqi: "Eleventh Senior Sister, my common name is Huzi, and my home is in the village at the foot of the mountain, because the village can't live anymore, the Taoist chief took me to Guanzhong to do some chores, you may not have seen me." This is a letter left by the Taoist Chief, Senior Brother told me, if one day, the woman who came to the Taoist with the big tiger to look for the Taoist Chief, that person is the Eleventh Senior Sister, let me give you this letter. ”
Only then did Qing Wei understand what he meant, and took the letter, and also understood that the master and they should have left, but still asked: "Did the Taoist chief and the senior brothers leave?" Who are the people in the audience now? ”
If there were still elders, they would not have given the letter to such a child.
Huzi scratched his head and replied: "The Taoist has been away for a while, and the senior brothers have left after they have settled down, and some of the senior brothers who are here have gone down the mountain to help. Now it's just me and a few elderly servants, and some refugees who have fled here. But now it's not safe here, and the general just came to tell me that let's prepare early, and if we don't have time to escape, we should hide in the mountains first. ”
Only then did Qing Qi know what Lian Jinchen was doing here.
As for why I came in person, I'm afraid I also want to see in person whether the Taoist chief of Yuanhe has really left, and I want to ask him a hexagram.
"I know, thank you very much, you listen to him, but don't rush to go, first organize the nearby villagers and homeless people to hide in the mountains to avoid being looted and causing casualties. If you can retreat from the enemy in this battle, you will definitely be able to exchange for a long period of stability. ”
Qingqi didn't know how to fight, but the soldiers and horses did not move the grain and grass first, and the reason why Mo Xuanling went all the way south without stopping for a moment was that his grain and grass were limited, and he couldn't support him to take his time. The north has always been a bitter cold land, and there is not much grain production, Beixuan said that it was because of infighting over the years, but in fact he was still quietly recuperating, and took the opportunity to envelop some powerful people in Eastern Qin and South Vietnam, trying to hoard grain and grass.
Mo Xuanling's food and grass were only enough for his expedition this time.
So he broke the kettle, and he could only win, not lose.
Under normal circumstances, he would have been able to grab enough grain and grass to support his next plan, but at the beginning, Ning Fengxu took the risk and ordered the people to relocate, leaving behind empty cities.
All the way down like this, the people suffered, and the ten rooms were empty, but Mo Xuanling really didn't get any bargains.
Therefore, the battle of Yujing City decided the life and death of Xiliang.
If he wins, Mo Xuanling can only go back.
If you lose, after passing Yujing City to the south, the remaining half of Xiliang is almost a horse Pingchuan, and there is no power to resist.
Thinking of this, Qingqi sighed and said to Huzi, "Hurry up and prepare." ”
Huzi nodded, and hurriedly turned around to greet someone to make arrangements.
Qingshu took the letter in his hand and did not open it in a hurry, but went to the courtyard of the chief of Yuanhe.
The head of Yuanhe Road is the master of the Qiyue Temple, and the actual national teacher of Xiliang, but the residence is really simple. At this time, in the depths of winter, the trees in the yard are already bare, and the flowers and trees that used to bloom vigorously are now only dried rattans wrapped around the walls.
Qingqi pushed open the door and walked into the room, Xu has been cleaned, the inside is as clean as ever, but empty, only a small half of the books that were placed layer by layer in the past, presumably those who can't be left here, have been taken away by the master.
Qingqi swept his eyes around, walked to the couch in front of the window and sat down, and there was a game of chess on the small table.
The chess pieces fall on the chessboard, evenly scattered, as if it was yesterday, and there are still people playing chess here.
Qing Mao held her chin and stared at the chessboard, trying to see if it was the master himself playing again, but when her eyes fell on the chessboard, the first time, the second time, and the third time, the more she looked at it, the more strange she felt.
It's not like an unfinished game of chess, it's more like a position.
Qingqi stared at the edge position for a long time, and felt that this position seemed to be a little abrupt, but she looked at it for a long time, and she didn't see any reason.
Could it be that Master has an explanation in his letter?
Qing Kai opened the letter, but inside was a blank piece of paper.
Aoki: "......"
After a pause, she had a flash of inspiration and injected spiritual power into the letterhead, and sure enough, in the next second, words finally appeared on the paper.
Qingqi hurriedly looked.
"Maki Maki, when you read this letter, the division has already returned to Zhongzhou, take care."
Qingqi was stunned, just such a sentence?
She didn't believe in evil and injected spiritual power again, and it was really just such a sentence on the believable paper, just telling her that he had returned to Middle-earth, and there was nothing else.
It's weird.
Why not leave a little more information? Is it possible, what other concerns are there that can't be done?
Qing Qi was puzzled, so she had to put the letter away, and went around several rooms, and went through all the books left by the master, but still found nothing, and in the end, she had to come to the chessboard again.
She didn't believe that Master had only left her such a sentence before leaving, but now only this chess game looked a little special.
What is it exactly?
Qing Qi looked left and right, and his eyes were about to cramp, and he didn't see what mystery was hidden.
Could it be that she was wrong?
Aoki sighed, and when she stood up and was about to give up, her eyes suddenly fell on the edge of the abrupt place again.
She looked at the board in its entirety again.
If so, if this is the direction, what if it happens to be the Four Spirit Continent?
Then the rest of the place, is it the twelve continents of the abyssal clouds?
Cangyuan Yunji is the territory of mortals, it is said that after the Great War in ancient times, the space was divided into several pieces, and the place where human beings lived, is Cangyuan Yunji.
There was no division in the earliest Cangyuan Yunji, but with the turn of time, the demon beasts were raging, and the war between humans and demon beasts intensified, in order to survive and defeat the raging demon beasts, some people began to create exercises, and began to break through the limits of human beings step by step, starting from a group of people who were born with spiritual roots, monks appeared, and later after experiencing great wars again and again, some people created methods that could be cultivated without spiritual roots.
As a result, the ranks of monks slowly grew, but the war between humans and monsters never ended.
For tens of thousands of years, with the slow development of the Cangyuan Cloud Pole, the Xuanjing Heaven was naturally aware of this change, but the Xuanjing Heaven could not directly intervene in the Cangyuan Cloud Pole, so it threw out the bait of the Ascension, and under the partial guidance and intervention, the Cangyuan Cloud Pole developed into the current thirteen continents.
Silingzhou was the first mortal to be expelled from the core, but it was also blessed by the Xuanjing Heaven.
The decree of the Four Spirits was lowered to form the Four Spirits Formation, guarding the Four Spirits Continent from being harmed by the monks of the Cangyuan Cloud Pole.
These were prying out of Qingluo's mouth when they were on the road.
After having Fang Cai's inspiration, Qing Qi looked at this chess game again, and his eyes touched it, and it was completely different.
What appeared in front of her was not a black and white chess piece, but a magnificent map.
The boundaries are clear.
After taking in this scene, Qing Qi felt dizzy for a moment in front of her eyes, and she hurriedly stretched out her hand on the chessboard and pulled the chessboard indiscriminately, messing up the chess game, and the dizziness completely faded.
She let out a long sigh of relief.
Then the eyes lit up.
By the way, the Four Spirits Formation?
Doesn't this mean that the Four Spirits Continent has a backstage from beginning to end?
The four spirits are all divine objects, and they are also the true appearance that maintains the stability of the Four Spiritual Continents, so if she wants to calm down the war in the Four Spiritual Continents, is it just that she can invite the true appearance of the Four Spirits, and the person they choose is the one she is looking for, who can end the war and bring stability to the Four Spiritual Continents?
This thought made Qing Qi breathe rapidly in an instant, she still remembered that when she was at the birthday banquet of the eldest princess of Xiangyang, she followed a few little girls to chat in the garden, and when she said that the king might be the reincarnation of the white tiger god of war, she said that they Xiliang was in the west, so it was the divine beast white tiger that was enshrined.
And the Eastern Qin is in the east, and it is the green dragon that is enshrined.
Then there is Xuanwu in the north, and Suzaku in the south.
If she asked her to ask for the four spirits before, she didn't have a clue.
But now, isn't it easy, my father was Emperor Dongze in his previous life, even if he is only a mortal now, but Qingluo's kid has the true appearance of Qinglong.
There is also Ning Fengxu, his real body is a phoenix, the king of a hundred birds, it is not difficult to invite the true appearance of the Vermilion Bird, right?
In this way, only the White Tiger and Xuanwu are left.
If only the king were there.
But there should be a sense between the four spirits, right? If the true appearance of Qinglong and Suzaku appears, are you still afraid that the true appearance of White Tiger and Xuanwu will not appear?
At that time, the Four Spirits will definitely be able to guide the people who can lead the Four Spirits Continent to stability.
Merely...... What if that person was really Mo Xuanling?
Qingqi shook her head, but it was really annoying.
She looked at the messy chessboard that had been stirred up by her, and put away all the chess pieces, originally wanting to stay here, but after thinking about it, she still took all the chess pieces away.
The master laid out such a map of a big battle, and there might be something contaminated with this chess piece, so she couldn't slow down when she stared at it so much, and she still didn't leave it to harm others.
Qingqi walked out of the small courtyard and couldn't help muttering,
"Where are the Four Temples?"
The people of Silingzhou have known since childhood that Silingzhou enshrines the four spirits, which are in the temple. But where the temple is, it seems that no one has ever heard of it.
"Concubine Niangniang?"
