Volume 1 The Human World Chapter 2 Chess Pieces

The pouring rain comes and goes as fast as it comes. The dark clouds dispersed, revealing the sun that had been hidden by the snow for a long time, and the sun sprinkled down wantonly, illuminating the damp world.

"What? You're the pawn?"

Zhang Haomin was stunned and looked at the black robe kneeling in front of him, he really couldn't believe that the chess piece that he hadn't had time to fall down had turned into a big living person at this time, it was like listening to the Arabian Nights.

Although it felt very ridiculous, when he thought of the old way with supreme supernatural powers, Zhang Haomin couldn't help but be silent.

If even the legendary immortals exist, then it is not a big deal for a chess piece of the fairy world to transform into a human, after all, the famous Monkey King is born from stones.

Regarding Zhang Haomin's question, the black robe nodded solemnly, and his attitude seemed very sincere.

However, Zhang Haomin was not entangled in this matter at this time, whether the black robe was transformed by the chess piece or not, he didn't care, he was curious about why the black robe came to tell him, more precisely, what purpose the black robe was for approaching him.

"Even if you're the pawn, why are you here to tell me?"

"My lord saved me from my predicament, and I should repay my lord. ”

"Repay?"

As soon as he heard the word repayment, Zhang Haomin's heart couldn't help but feel a little playful, what years have it been, it is already good if he doesn't fall into the well, and there will be someone who will repay the favor?

The black robe still nodded solemnly and did not speak.

Zhang Haomin raised his eyebrows, thinking it was very interesting, so he looked at the black robe with a wicked smile and asked.

"And how are you going to repay me?"

"I would like to recognize the Lord as the Lord and swear to serve the master to the death!"

Zhang Haomin almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood. It's already the 21st century, and in broad daylight, there are still people who want to defy the law and restore slavery, could it be that he has some ulterior habits?

"Then why do you confess me as Lord?"

As soon as the black robe was about to reply, Zhang Haomin shouted in advance.

"Stop, I don't believe in anything that is not reciprocated, these nonsense are just deceptive tricks, unless you think I'm stupid.

If I were you, at the mercy of others for hundreds or even thousands of years, then after I got out of trouble, I would naturally be far away from the emperor of the sky, and I would be happy and happy, how could I recognize people as the master?"

Zhang Haomin stared at the black robe with burning eyes, wanting to go straight to the depths of his heart through all appearances and see what was going on in his head.

"Because of freedom!"

Zhang Haomin seemed to have heard a big joke, he had never heard of a slave who sold himself to have so-called freedom. What's more, he is still a person who has finally gained freedom, how can he be willing to accept others as the master.

"Freedom? If it's really because of freedom, then why do you want to recognize me as Lord?"

"I want true freedom!"

The black robe suddenly stood up, facing out of the cave, and there seemed to be an indescribable look in his eyes.

"True freedom?"

"Yes, my lord is right, at this moment I am indeed the emperor of the sky, and I can live freely and happily, but how long can all this last? After all, I am still a small chess piece that can only be manipulated by others.

Adults are chess players, and they have the power to decide whether to lose or win this game, and only by following adults can I have a glimmer of hope that I can get rid of the chessboard. ”

"Then you don't have to worry, follow me, you can still only be a chess piece?"

The black robe turned to look at Zhang Haomin, spread out his hands, shrugged his shoulders slightly, and said slowly.

"Why should I worry? I'm a pawn. ”

"So what if you can't even make a chess piece in the end?"

The black robe was dumbfounded for a while, not knowing what to say, pursed his lips and turned away, looked at the sky outside the cave with his negative hand, took a deep breath, and said as if relieved.

"Isn't that a relief?"

An imperceptible smile appeared on Zhang Haomin's face, his eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes stared at the black robe tightly, and he asked softly.

"Haven't you thought about revenge?"

"Revenge? hahaha. ”

The black robe looked at Zhang Haomin with an unbelievable expression, and after seeing his serious eyes, he actually burst out laughing, as if he had heard a big joke.

"How can the fish in the stream know the depth and breadth of the sea, how can the tender seedlings in the depression know the majesty of the mountain, and what can the little fireflies compare with Haori? ”

Zhang Haomin looked at the black robe that was trembling all over his body because of his emotion, but his heart wondered, is that white-bearded old man really so powerful?

"Since that old man is so powerful, how can I be your hope?"

"Because I escaped. ”

Seeing Zhang Haomin tilting his head in confusion, the black robe explained again.

"He knew from the beginning that I was going to escape, and the reason why he let it go was because of the adults. ”

"Because of me?"

"Yes, it is because of adults, and it is precisely for this reason that I want to recognize adults as the master, and only adults are my hope. ”

Zhang Haomin somewhat understood that it was because he was holding the chess piece that the white-bearded old man would let it go, and it was precisely because of this that the escaped chess piece would be sheltered, so the black robe wanted to recognize him as the master.

But he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say what was wrong, so he had to stop thinking about it.

"Tell me, then, what benefit will I get from it if you recognize me as Lord?"

"Just now I saw that he opened up the Mud Pill Palace for adults, I think adults will also embark on the path of cultivation in the future, although my strength is not good, but I know a lot of things, I can give adults a point or two, so that adults will not take detours. ”

"Well, go on. ”

"When adults first arrive, they naturally need help from someone around them, and I can do all of this. ”

Zhang Haomin was secretly resentful in his heart, this black robe actually said that he was a newcomer? He has been living here for more than 20 years, who is the first to arrive?

Look at the black robe dressed again, as if wrapped in a sheet, just like that, not to mention the computer, I'm afraid I don't even know the car, and I won't be shocked when the time comes.

Thinking of this, Zhang Haomin was secretly happy in his heart, and decided not to tell him now, so that he would watch a good show when the time came.

"Well, since you said you want to recognize me as the Lord, will you serve people?"

"I will do my best!"

Zhang Haomin nodded with satisfaction on the surface, but in fact he was very disdainful in his heart, this guy doesn't even know how to use his mobile phone, and he expects him to serve himself?

"Then how do you pledge your allegiance to me?"

"I can make a master-servant contract with my lord. ”

"A contract is just a piece of paper, nothing. ”

"Paper?"

The black robe suddenly realized, he knew that Zhang Haomin had misunderstood, so he pinched the trick with his left and right hands, knelt on one knee to cast a spell, and said something in his mouth.

"The universe is the best, and all things have spirits. Now here, to conclude life and death, rank as master and servant, do not dare to disobey. If there is disobedience, be willing to suffer the thunder of heaven and knot. ”

With the mantra of the black robe, a little golden man walked out of the center of the black robe's eyebrows and floated in front of Zhang Haomin.

"Master, you only need to drop a drop of blood on this spiritual consciousness, and this master-servant contract will take effect immediately, and if the little slave violates you in any way, he will be punished by heavenly thunder. ”

Zhang Haomin looked at the little golden figure in front of him curiously, feeling very cute, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, his road to cultivating immortals was far longer than he thought.

"There's no hurry about this, I'll inspect you first. ”

Zhang Haomin is not stupid, he doesn't know anything about this so-called master-servant contract, in case there is some trap in this, and he becomes a servant, wouldn't it be a big loss. So he'll have to study it and wait until he understands it.

"Investigation?"

"Yes, for three months, depending on how you perform, if you perform well, I will sign with you, if you don't perform well, then it's okay, you have to find another job." ”

The black robe didn't dare to mention it if he had an opinion, after all, the initiative was in Zhang Haomin's hands, and now he could only follow his wishes.

"By the way, what's your name?"

Zhang Haomin suddenly remembered that after chatting for so long, he still didn't know what this guy's name was.

"I, I don't have a name. ”

"You don't have a name? Oh, yes, you're a pawn after all. But since you're no longer a pawn, it's better to have a name, otherwise it's too inconvenient. ”

"Please also give the master a name. ”

"Stop, I haven't agreed yet. But since you asked me to name it, what do you think of Li Dogan?"

"Well, thank you for the name. ”

Although the black robe refused in his heart, after several weighings, he still gave in, so he knelt on the ground and thanked him. This frightened Zhang Haomin, and hurriedly helped him up, grinning his teeth and smiling.

"Don't, don't, I'm just joking, don't take it seriously. The name is a big deal, you have to be called for a lifetime, or you should come up with one, at least you like it, and you are willing to listen to it. ”

The black robe lowered his head and pondered, frowning, obviously in a major problem. And Zhang Haomin was not idle, he was looking around at the surrounding environment. He was a little puzzled, how could he wake up in a cave when he was in a forest just now?

They were in a cave at this time, and just because of the heavy rain, the black robe resisted the unconscious Zhang Haomin to take shelter in the cave, and even the soaked clothes on his body were dried by the black robe with spiritual power.

Just when Zhang Haomin was looking left and right, and his curiosity was overflowing, the black robe on the side spoke.

"Then I'll call it Xiaoyao. ”

"Which Xiaoyao, which Yao?"

"It's the word "free". ”

"Only a name, no surname?"

"If you have a surname, you won't be free. ”

Zhang Haomin stood up, muttered a repeat in his mouth, shook his head, and smiled at the black robe.

"I don't think it's getting early, let's hurry and find a hotel to stay, I don't want to stay in this middle of nowhere. ”
