The stream gurgles like the pleasant bell sound of Jiuqing Heavenly Palace, refreshing people's hearts and spleens to wash the complicated soul, and the side of the stream is lush and green, which is an ancient tree that can reach the sky.

Just under the ancient tree, in a slightly old wooden house, but it is very lively, at this time four figures are surrounding a wooden table, they all have a dusty temperament, or black hair and green beard, or white eyebrows and frost sideburns, just a glance to know that it is extraordinary.

The four of them gathered together, just watching and silent, and the place where the eyes of several people gathered was on a game of chess above the wooden table, and the chessboard was also made of square wood, and the smell of wood could still be seen.

And this wooden chessboard, depicting a precise surface pattern like a rune as mysterious, above the chessboard, scattered with countless chess pieces, this kind of chess pieces are not ordinary black and white children, but red, yellow, green, blue and gold five color children, the person holding the child is not two, but the four dusty old man figures in front of him.

Lin Xiu, who was thrown into the wooden house by the old man Murong, had already stopped complaining, and at this time his butt was still sitting on the ground, but his eyes fell on these four figures.

There are four people to play a game of chess, which is too strange, Lin Xiu is not familiar with chess, but he still understands some basic knowledge of chess, but it is precisely because of his understanding that he will be puzzled, there will be a chessboard with four people playing together in the world.

Lin Xiu, who was puzzled by the chessboard, was also surprised by the strength of several people in his heart.

"Such deep strength, I'm afraid these people are all high-level generals. Lin Xiu looked at several figures cautiously, and muttered in surprise in his heart.

A few people didn't seem to notice Lin Xiu's arrival, but just focused on the chessboard in front of them, Lin Xiu, who had fallen to the ground, stood up, and then slowly walked over to a few people.

The more surprised Lin Xiu felt in his heart when he jumped forward, and when he saw the posture of everyone playing chess, he was shocked beyond measure.

This is not like playing chess, but like a battle, every time the chess pieces are settled, it is like the habitual use of every terrifying move, and the fierce spirit permeates the chessboard.

The closer Lin Xiu gets, the more he can see the appearance of a few people, his appearance is not dull, but his face is extremely silent, or frowning or staring, and then smiling slightly, or having confidence emerge, and his expression changes like a cloud of wind and clouds.

Lin Xiu, who was slowly approaching, finally stopped at a distance of two meters away from a few people, and did not take another half a step forward, there was nothing in front of him, but Lin Xiu felt that the soles of his feet were bound by something, and he couldn't move an inch.

Even if his footsteps stopped in place, his gaze still fell on the four of them.

The breath of silence in the atmosphere could be heard, and at this moment, the old man Murong outside the wooden house jumped in.

As soon as the old man Murong entered the house, he immediately brought a gust of wind, and the strings of bells on the hanging beam made them jingle.

The old man Murong who was quite dusty and had the intention of being out of the dust immediately spoke when he entered the house.

"I didn't have any integrity at all, I told you to wait for me, but I secretly opened the market. As soon as he opened his mouth, the old man Murong complained, and while complaining, his burning eyes were still staring at the chessboard of the five-colored chess pieces.

After saying this, the old man Murong rushed to the vacant position of the wooden table as if his beloved thing was about to be snatched away.

"Five missing one, you came just enough to make up a table. Directly opposite the wooden table, the old man who looked completely different from the old man Murong said with a smile.

This person, with black hair, black eyebrows and black beard, is old but it seems that time has not left too many marks on his body, a face that is not too old, and the remaining fortitude of his youth, and there is also a thorough understanding of the world in his eyes.

"Old man, now you know how important I am. Old man Murong said with a smile to the man with black hair and black eyebrows.

The old man who was turned into an old man by Murong pouted helplessly and said, "Alas, if the old man Cong Ming had half of your Murong Gu's skills, I wouldn't be in such pain." ”

Between the words, there was a smell of complaint.

As soon as these words came out, the person opposite the old man stared, frowned, and said: "Jia Zengyin, don't rely on others if you can't do it, even if you mean Sang scolding Huai, you have to have a solid basis." ”

"Okay, okay, shut up, you two don't have anything else to do except quarrel all day. On the wooden table, an old man with a milder temper waved his hand to stop him. "By the way, old man Murong, what are you bringing such a little baby for?"

The gentle-tempered old man, after persuading the two people who were arguing, asked Murong Gu.

Murong Gu had already sat in the seat that belonged to him at this time, and his eyes were burning with the Immortal Wind Dao Bone, his gaze swept over Lin Xiu, and then he said in a complicated tone: "He is here to test his innate ability." ”

Hearing this, a few people moved their eyes to Lin Xiu, who was standing stunned and watching a few people.

Jia Zengyin, Cong Ming, and the gentle old man were all looking at Lin Xiu, only the one with his back to Lin Xiu was still indifferent.

Being stared at like this by several military generals, Lin Xiu only felt a little cold sweat on his spine, the distance between the martial artist and the military general seemed to be only one level, but the real gap between them was like a cloud.

"I've seen a few seniors, Lin Xiu, a disciple of the inner sect of the Lower Holy Fire Gate, who came to bother today because of the core disciple quota. Facing several strong generals, Lin Xiu bowed slightly with great interest, and then said what he thought in his heart.

"Core disciple?Murong, he's not joking, the core disciple hasn't started recruiting yet, you bring a little guy with a two-star martial artist here, is it idle and boring?" glanced at Lin Xiu casually, and Jia Zengyin, who had been accusing others of not playing chess well, said in a casual manner.

The other two old men who looked at Lin Xiu, although they didn't speak, the expressions on their faces could express everything.

Martial artist two stars, if you want to become a core disciple, it is still a little unrealistic.

"Old man, you think I want to bring him in, but he is not the daughter of the Shengtian Boy, so you have to pester me to let me bring this little baby in. Murong Gu shrugged helplessly, and said in distress, "If you don't bring this little baby in, I'm really afraid that the daughter of the Holy Heaven Kid will come back to make trouble." ”

"In this way, I didn't expect this little guy to have a relationship with Shengtian's daughter, it won't be her lover. After hearing Murong Gu's explanation, Jia Zengyin nodded, then glanced at Lin Xiu twice and teased.

"Eighty percent is, these two little babies seem to have a good relationship. Murong Gu nodded and agreed with Jia Zengyin's statement.

After these words, several old men also had a general impression of Lin Xiu, and invisibly, Lin Xiu was labeled as a wife.
