Chapter 37: The Chessboard

Faced with the questioning of the monk of the Rejected North City, someone in the crowd stepped forward.

This person's Yuan Dan realm is fivefold, and he has the same cultivation as Hongying.

He is a sword cultivator, and the three-foot Qinggang sword in his hand is invincible.

He bowed his hand slightly, and reported to his home: "In Xia Ningchi, we are here to rescue Beicheng." We really don't know what you're talking about. ”

Hearing this, the monks who rejected the northern city only then softened their faces slightly.

Among them, one of their leaders is a general in military armor.

This person's name is Wei Yi, he slightly arched his hands and clenched his fists, and said: "Thank you for all chivalrous people, but right now, what can really help is to find food, otherwise this Beicheng will not be able to defend it." ”

Ning Chi asked, "I don't know where there is food, we can help you transport it." ”

Wei Yi found a map and pointed to the place marked in red, "I refuse the grain in Beicheng, it's all here." It's just that not long ago, a team of men and horses was sent to transport grain, but they never came back. We don't know what's going on either. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Chen blurted out, "This is a siege of the city." ”

Everyone looked over in unison.

Wei Yi's face was full of solemnity and said, "Little brother, what do you mean by this?" ”

Being watched by everyone, Xiao Chen touched his nose and laughed dryly, "I mean, your granary has probably been broken by demons, so I'm waiting for you to die one by one." They have already set up an ambush there. ”

Hearing this, everyone's faces changed drastically.

Wei Yi muttered to himself: "No wonder, so many people were sent in a company, but not a single grain of grain was brought back. It turns out that these demons have their sights on it. ”

Everyone was aware of the dire nature of the situation.

I'm afraid that in that granary place, the demons have already laid a net.

If you break in rashly, I'm afraid there is really no return.

However, if the grain cannot be transported to the city, the city of the north will be finished.

The entire city will starve to death, and there will be no need for demons to attack the city, and this place will be self-defeating.

Wei Yi gritted his teeth, "Damn, this granary must be taken back." Ladies and gentlemen, do any of you want to bring the food back? ”

The monks in the northern city volunteered one by one, and their voices were very high.

But like Xiao Chen, the monks who had just come here were silent one by one.

Seeing this, the monks who rejected the northern city looked at them one by one with contempt. The eyes are very disdainful, as if they are laughing at these people, just people who are greedy for life and afraid of death.

Seeing this, Ning Chi took a step forward and said, "I'm willing to go." ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be surprised: "Ning Chi, what do you mean by this?" ”

Ning Chi said, "Mo Fei, are you going to hide in the city now?" The purpose of our trip, as I probably guessed, was to hold on to the North City. If you are greedy for life and afraid of death, I will not stop you. ”

Hearing this, everyone fell silent.

Because they know that what Ning Chi said should be true.

Their group was teleported here, probably to complete the task of holding on to the North City.

It's just that this task is too difficult.

No wonder it's called the City of the Dead.

Although the historical North Rejection City resisted the attacks of demons again and again, in the end, the city was broken and people died.

It's just that when the North City was destroyed and killed, the demon was no longer able to continue to attack the land of the human race.

Therefore, it can be said that the rejection of the north city used a city in exchange for the multiplication of the human race.

This time, these people, now that they have come here, they can't just watch the premature defeat of the North City.

So, some people responded, "I'm willing to go too." ”

Soon, everyone raised their hands, and in the end, only Hongying and Xiao Chen were left.

Seeing this, Hongying also raised her hand, "I am also willing." ”

As he spoke, he looked at Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen smiled helplessly, and also raised his hand, "I am also willing to go." ”

So, Wei Yi was very happy, and when he made the deployment, he said: "Everyone, if you follow this route, you will definitely be able to bypass the ambush of the evil demons and reach the granary smoothly, as long as you transport the grain, it will be a great achievement." Try not to get entangled with those demons, it will drag you down. ”

Ning Chi nodded, very satisfied with Wei Yi's deployment, and said: "It is worthy of General Wei Yi, this deployment can be said to be seamless, and we will transport the grain back within the agreed time." ”

Wei Yi patted Ning Chi on the shoulder and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you to triumph." Let's go back quickly. ”

So, Xiao Chen and the others followed the route arranged by Wei Yi and headed towards the granary.

Along the way, I encountered some demons who went out to find human food, but they were easily solved by Xiao Chen and his party.

Once, Xiao Chen saw with his own eyes that those demons were eating the corpses of human beings, which made Xiao Chen's whole person angry.

These demons, really damn it, use the human race as meat, and such mad behavior must be cleaned up.

Soon, after nightfall, the group came to a small mountain villa.

In this small mountain village, every house is lit with a white lantern.

These lanterns, emitting a faint glow.

Seeing this, Ma Jing, a monk from Beibei City, who was accompanying him, gritted his teeth secretly and said, "This is the means of the evil demons. ”

It seems that he hated these white lanterns.

Seeing this, Ning Chi asked, "What is the name of this white lantern?" ”

Ma Jing gritted his teeth and said, "These white lanterns are used by the demons to trap the ghosts here. The souls of the people who were killed were trapped in the white lanterns, and after seven or forty-nine days, the ghosts in these white lanterns could be eaten by the demons. ”

Hearing this, Ning Chi hated and said: "Damn demons, they don't even let people go after they die." It's really hard to write. ”

Xiao Chen asked, "Can't you destroy these white lanterns?" ”

Ma Jing shook his head, "It can't be destroyed." Even the monks of the Yuan Dan Realm couldn't destroy these white lanterns. ”

Seeing this, Xiao Chen was silent.

Even the Yuan Dan Realm could not be destroyed, and it was even more impossible for him to have a physical body realm.

Ma Jing gritted his teeth, "Let's go, there is no longer a living mouth in this village." They are all dead. We have to go to the granary as soon as possible and bring the grain back. ”

Everyone looked at the village angrily, and then left silently.

This demon is really evil.

Afterwards, they climbed a small hill.

On the other side of the hill is where the granary is located.

However, at this time, the granary was quiet all around, and there seemed to be nothing abnormal.

Seeing this, everyone fell silent.

What's going on?

Could it be that the demons are not here?

But the next moment, they knew they were thinking too much.

Because, when they saw an evil demon slowly coming out of the granary, they laughed and said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time, but are you sure to break the formation?" ”

As he spoke, he took out a chessboard from his storage bag.

He picks up a chess piece and gently lands it on the board.

In an instant, heaven and earth were assimilated as if they were being assimilated by a chessboard.

Xiao Chen and the others were sucked into the chessboard.

Ma Jing exclaimed: "Damn, this is the demon's magic chessboard, we can't get out." ”

They looked up and saw the same demon in the sky.

The demon was chuckling, staring at the Terran monks trapped on the chessboard.

He smiled, "Next, it's your time to fall." If you lose one son, one person will die, and there will only be a dozen of you, and you will lose very quickly. ”

Seeing this, everyone looked at each other in the chessboard, and cold sweat broke out one by one.

Ning Chi shook his head, "I don't know anything about chess games, so I can't win against him at all." ”

The rest of the people also said, "Who has that spare time, what to learn to play chess." This time it's really over. ”

Just when everyone was worried, Xiao Chen slowly spoke, "Why don't you let me give it a try?" I still have a little bit of research on chess. ”

When everyone heard this, they turned their eyes on, "Are you sure?" ”

Xiao Chen nodded, "In terms of cultivation, I may not be in your eyes, but in terms of chess skills, I am not inferior to any of you." ”

Hearing this, Ning Chi immediately made a decision and said, "Okay, little brother, my net worth and life are all on you." You've got to win. ”

Xiao Chen took a deep breath, looked at the chessboard, and then began to play chess.

He began to fall and fight against the demons.

The demon was also interested, but gradually, the demon's face became more and more ugly.

Because, on the chessboard, his sunspots were eaten more and more, and he was about to die.

On Xiao Chen's side, instead of losing a chess piece, he won a lot.

The demon was not willing to fail, he looked down at the chessboard, and then blew at Xiao Chen.

Suddenly, a fishy black mist enveloped Xiao Chen.

Seeing this, Ning Chi and the others hurriedly helped, but they were still a step too late.

Xiao Chen only felt that his head was groggy, as if his head was not awake by this black fog.

Ning Chi scolded, "Damn demon, you cheat!" ”

The demon laughed loudly, "It's only to blame that he is too weak, a six-fold body realm, even if he dares to break my chess game, he can't do it himself." ”

However, the next moment, to everyone's shock, Xiao Chen was fine.

He did not fall as the demon had expected, but stood up.

All of this was because of the ancient sword in Xiao Chen's body, which exuded a wisp of sword intent, sweeping away the black mist qi that had been sucked into his body.

Therefore, Xiao Chen was safe and sound again.

Xiao Chen smiled, "Next, you're going to lose." ”

I saw Xiao Chen's swift fall, and when the last chess piece fell, the entire chessboard world was broken.

The crowd was able to escape from it.

Returning to the outside world, Ning Chi and Ma Jing and the others rushed to kill the demons.

Almost all of the monks raised their hands at this moment, intending to eradicate it.

Seeing this, the demon was unhurried and untied a brush from his waist.

He took the brush in his hand and began to write the demon's words.

I saw that after an evil demon text appeared, countless demonic qi surged from the entire heaven and earth in an instant.

These demonic qi can demonize people.

Ma Jing immediately shouted: "Hurry up, don't be contaminated with these demonic qi, you will be demonized." ”

Around these people, layers of black demonic energy floated.

Ma Jing untied a wine gourd from his waist, he poured the wine gourd into his mouth, and then opened his mouth and spit out the wine, instantly igniting a fire dragon.

This fire dragon burned all those demonic qi.

Seeing this, the demon smiled, "Yes, over the years, you Terran cultivators have not been ignorant of my demon clan. ”

But the next moment, he held the brush, made strokes in the air, and wrote another demonic text.

This demonic text, exuding terrifying power, seemed to be imprisoned in the entire space.

Seeing this, Ma Jing was shocked, "Damn, we can't mobilize the aura of heaven and earth around us." ”

This is a demonic method that can isolate the monk from the aura of heaven and earth.

Without the aura that can mobilize the heaven and earth around him, the Terran monk will only get weaker and weaker.

Because of his own spiritual power, after all, it is limited.

At this moment, everyone felt a powerful crisis.

Ning Chi asked, "Ma Jing, what other means can you use to deal with this demon?" ”

Ma Jing shook his head and said helplessly: "There is no way, we have not found a way to crack this spell so far." ”

Seeing this, everyone's hearts sank.
