Ye Lingxi said: "That would be great!"

He had been worried about wasting his time, but now it seemed that even Julie agreed with him.

With the support of the Fox Demon Empress, when Ye Ling saw the old man after cleaning the next night, he took the initiative to ask to play chess, and the old man was very happy.

For a few days, in addition to the training camp, what Ye Ling did was to help clean up and accompany the cleaning old man to confront.

This old man's chess skills are indeed extremely strong, and in the past few days, Ye Ling has not won a single game, and he has nothing to say about losing. Although he has not yet realized the usefulness of playing chess to his martial arts, he feels that his chess skills have indeed improved greatly.

So on the evening of the fourth day, the old man suddenly let out a long sigh after he had finished his next plate.

Seeing this, Ye Ling asked, "Old man, what's wrong with you?"

The old man was silent for a moment, and then said, "Young man, I want to ask you a question. ”

Seeing him so serious, Ye Ling couldn't help but wonder: "Old man, what's the problem?"

The old man said solemnly: "If you have a chance, if you cultivate hard, you can become a peerless powerhouse and serve the world, but if you hurt your most important person because of this, would you want to become a peerless powerhouse, or give up this opportunity?"

Ye Ling didn't think about it, so he didn't hesitate to say, "Of course I gave up!"

The old man was surprised: "Weishenme said so!"

"Because the purpose of my becoming stronger is to protect the people who are most important to me, if I hurt them for this, wouldn't it be against my original intention?" Ye Ling paused for a moment, and then said: "Besides, if I can't even protect the people who are most important to me, how can I dare to say that I can help others who don't know me?"

Ye Ling's answer made the old man fall silent again, this time he thought for at least two minutes, raised his head again, and a trace of imperceptible light flashed in his eyes: "Hehe, I see, good answer, I finally understand!"

"Old man, what do you understand? And what are you asking for?"

"Nothing," the old man quickly diverted the subject: "Alas, I think of those days when I played against that old high-ranking friend, and playing chess with him was really a very interesting thing!"

Ye Ling said embarrassedly: "I know, my chess skills are very good, and I can't compare with that senior master......"

"Hehe, I didn't mean that, you misunderstood...... "I mean, he has a very magical chessboard!"

Ye Ling said with interest: "Oh, how amazing. ”

"It's like, it's real!" the old man yearned leisurely: "You won't understand it until you experience it yourself." Alas, I really want to play a few more games with that board, so that I will feel the joy of playing chess with him again, he is my best friend on the island, but since he has gone, I have lost that joy. Moreover, my time is probably running out, and if I don't play a few games in that chess game, I'm afraid I won't have a chance in the future. ”

Ye Ling hurriedly said: "Old man, don't say such things, your spirit is very good, and it is not a problem to live a long life of two hundred years!"

"Haha, young man, you don't need to comfort me, I know my own business!" the old man laughed: "I'm already very old, my body is wearing down rapidly every day, and I can't last long!"

Speaking of this, the old man thought for a moment, and his face showed embarrassment: "Young man, I have a reluctant request, I don't know whether to say it or not." ”

Ye Ling said: "Old man, you say, as long as I can do it, I will try my best to help you!"

The old man said, "I want to use that chessboard to play a few more games, can you help me bring it?"

"Yes!" Ye Ling replied dryly, but he immediately thought of one thing: "Oh, by the way, old man, you don't seem to have told me yet, where is that chessboard?"

The old man said: "Now I'll take you there, there is a place on the road that is not easy to walk, my old bone may need your help!"

Ye Ling promised: "Okay!"

The two of them went out immediately, the old man had lived in the Martial God Temple for decades, and he was obviously extremely familiar with this place, and he came to some places that Ye Ling had not been, and the terrain gradually changed, and there was no one else on the Zuihou Road at all.

Ye Ling muttered in his heart, where is this, there are so few Weishenme people?

After a while, there was a fog around, the fog was getting thicker, zuihou, the two of them came to the edge of a cliff, and the eyes were full of ethereal white gas, faintly, and I didn't know how deep it was to see the bottom under the void.

Seeing that there was no way out, Ye Ling was puzzled: "Old man, ...... here"

The old man stretched out his hand and pointed into the distance: "That chessboard, it's somewhere over there, I can't fly, so I can only ask you." ”

"Oh, how far is it, old man, my strength is still shallow, and if I take people, I won't be able to fly for long. ”

The old man smiled: "It won't be too far, it's only a few minutes!"

"Okay, but the fog here is so big, I can't tell the direction, you have to give me instructions!" Ye Lingyan helped the old man, flew up with the Dancing Sky Technique, and threw himself into the dense fog of the cliff, only to find that this fog made him completely lose his sense of direction, and there was also a faint panic in his heart, if it wasn't for the old man, he might have been lost here.

"This way, well, and, this way, ...... on the left"

The old man kept pointing, Ye Ling felt a little strange in his heart, weishenme couldn't go straight ahead, but always had to turn around, but he didn't delve into this problem.

After flying like this for about five minutes, in the confused fog, a shadow suddenly appeared, a large shadow.

It had to be close, Ye Ling found that this was a tall tower, very large, with dozens of floors. What's even more bizarre is that it is quietly suspended in the void of this cliff, and it has not touched the ground at all.

Wow, what kind of tower is this, it's too strong, and it can float like a hovering train!

The two landed at the gate of the tower, and Ye Ling couldn't help but ask, "Old man, what kind of place is this?"

"Its name is the Relic Pagoda. ”

The old man's voice was flat, but when Ye Ling heard the name, he jumped up like a kitten that had been stepped on by its tail.

"Relic Pagoda!?"

This place, as both Colonel Marley and Rand had solemnly told, must not be broken into, because it is one of the forbidden places of the Martial God Temple, and it is also a very important forbidden place!
