Just as Ao Beihai thought, since Zhou Ping won in this game, it is absolutely impossible for him to continue to let Ao Beihai live in this world.

However, he was wrong in one sentence, Zhou Ping and him have never been the same kind of people.

Some people will do whatever it takes to achieve their ends, while others only seek peace of mind, how can a prince or a wanderer at the end of the world be one of the same kind of people?

Zhou Ping finally helped Ao Beihai fulfill his last wish and buried him in the tomb of the crane in the clouds.

After Zhou Ping did all this, looking at the waves in the distance from afar, he recalled the scenes since he came to Beihai, when the familiar figures appeared in front of him, the corners of Zhou Ping's mouth hooked up a smile.

This time, it's really time to go......

At the beginning, Zhou Ping's purpose in coming to Beihai was to find the Beihai Ice Spirit and remove the poison from his body, but now he not only got the Beihai Ice Spirit, but also got the Tang Shenghuang's Eight Phases True Intention Inheritance and powerful magic weapons such as the Hexagram Lock Heavenly Tower.

If Tang Shenghuang hadn't left those ghost sharks behind, then Zhou Ping might have thought that all this was luck, but with those ghost sharks in the forbidden sea where the Bagua Lock Heaven Tower was located, things began to get confusing.

How many people in this world can understand the beast language and can control the beast clan Zhou Ping doesn't know, but how many people can have the Flawless Soul Seed? Zhou Ping can be sure that there is only one person in this world who can understand both the beast language and the Flawless Soul Seed, so those ghost sharks must be the means left for him by the Tang Holy Emperor!

But in this way, Zhou Ping was even more confused, how could Tang Shenghuang have predicted people and things a thousand years later? Could it be that he really has the ability to predict the future?

Of course, these Zhou Ping didn't know, he only knew that Tang Shenghuang and himself definitely had an extremely close connection, and this connection was definitely not as simple as the two of them were both owners of the Flawless Soul Seed!

And the one who has never left the harmonica since he can remember, why did he disappear strangely at some point, and why did he inexplicably appear in his hands again after he comprehended the true meaning of the Eight Phases and obtained the Bagua Lock Heaven Tower?

Why did he lose his memory of this harmonica, and why did this harmonica have the ability to manipulate orcs?

Zhou Ping suddenly realized that this trip to Beihai seemed to be his own casual move, and from all indications, there were many arrangements for him a long time ago, and those who made these arrangements had already decided that Zhou Ping would come!

Zhou Ping was extremely frightened when he thought about it, he even felt that his words and deeds were under the surveillance of others, and all his movements were planned for him by others in the dark.

However, even if Zhou Ping sensed something, it didn't make any sense, after all, he was still too weak now, far from reaching the level of a person who laid out, so the only thing he could do now was to improve his strength as soon as possible. He knew very well that only when he reached that level could he be qualified to solve his doubts.

However, this time in Beihai was a little too nervous for Zhou Ping, so when there was still a period of time before the enrollment of Chang'an Immortal Academy, Zhou Ping did not choose to use the eight-phase Xuan Qi to fly, but chose to use his own feet to rush all the way back to Chang'an.

After this trip to Beihai, Zhou Ping's strength has been greatly improved, but the more this kind of leapfrogging is greatly improved, the easier it is to cause Zhou Ping's mental instability, so walking thousands of miles can sharpen Zhou Ping's character, let him abandon impetuousness, and continue to walk down-to-earth on the road of cultivating immortals.

Zhou Ping's foot strength is naturally beyond the reach of ordinary people, although Beihai and the Tang Dynasty are separated by thousands of miles, but Zhou Ping only took more than a month to come to the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

The Tang Dynasty is known as a powerful country in the world, with a territory of thousands of miles, and all countries are in the same dynasty, and it is the real co-lord of the world!

Coming to a small town on the border of the Tang Dynasty, Zhou Ping looked at the magnificent city wall and exquisite attic, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Although this castle is somewhat inferior to Kyoto in the south, it is not inferior to other big cities in the south, and even surpasses. You know, this is just a small border town in Datang. The border town is still so prosperous, you can imagine how prosperous Chang'an, which has become the capital of all countries, should be!

Zhou Ping came to a teahouse to drink tea and rest, and when he was drinking tea carefully, one thing repeatedly mentioned by the tea customers around him made him suddenly interested.

"Have you heard, our city lord of Cloud City has been openly recruiting relatives for his daughter since three days ago!" a red-clothed tea guest said softly, "I don't know who can be blessed to marry that beautiful woman as a wife~"

"Let's not think about it. A white-clothed tea guest beside him pursed his lips and said, "I heard that the city lord of Cloud City has set up a world-shattering chess game in front of the mansion, whoever can solve this chess game will be able to marry the daughter of the city lord!"

"No, what kind of chess game is so rebellious, it's been three days, and there is not even a single person who can solve so many chess Dao masters in our Cloud City?"

The white-clothed tea guest slowly shook his head, "It's strange that it can be solved, do you know who left this chess game?"

The red-clothed tea guest at the beginning frowned and shook his head, "I really don't know about this......"

"Twenty years ago, there was an immortal ...... in Chang'an"

As the white-clothed tea-guest slowly said this, the boss of the red-clothed tea-guest's mouth opened, "Really...... Is it really the immortal who left it?"

"That's natural, how can the city lord choose a son-in-law as casually as you think......"

At this moment, Zhou Ping put down the teacup in his hand and walked to the white-clothed tea guest, bowed slightly, and asked softly, "Dare to ask Brother Tai, the immortal you are talking about, but twenty years ago, he defeated the national soldier Chen Bi'an's Chang'an chess master-Li Qixian?"

The white-clothed tea guest glanced up at Zhou Ping, and replied with a smile: "I haven't heard of the national scholar Chen Bi'an, but the person who set up this chess game is the peerless weathered Li Qixian in Chang'an. ”

"Is this brother interested in recruiting relatives from the City Lord's Mansion?" said with a smile, pointing to a street not far away, "Follow this street and go straight north to the City Lord's Mansion, I hope the brother can solve the chess game and hold the beauty!"

Zhou Ping smiled and nodded when he heard this, and arched his hand towards the two, but when he turned around and walked to the door of the teahouse, his footsteps suddenly stopped.

Zhou Ping turned his head to look at the two tea guests, and said softly, "The two brothers, in the next Zhou Ping, are the disciples of the national scholar Chen Bi'an. ”

The two tea guests were stunned for a moment, and they didn't react to Zhou Ping's meaning for a while.

"It's okay if you don't remember me now, you'll remember soon. ”

With that, Zhou Ping turned around and left, heading straight for the City Lord's Mansion.

Twenty years ago, although Chen Bi'an was just a short-lived amazing demon in Chang'an City, for Zhou Ping, the four words he had not finished carving in Qingliang Mountain were inherited by himself as a disciple!

The world only knows the chess master Li Qixian, but I don't know the countryman Chen Bi'an, I, Zhou Ping, don't agree!

At this time, the front door of the city lord's mansion was full of birds, a huge chessboard was placed on the side of the road, and there were occasionally pedestrians around to stop and watch, but they all sighed and left after a while.

In a pavilion not far from the chessboard, Yun Hua, the city lord of Cloud City, sighed lightly, smiled bitterly at the stunning woman sitting beside him and asked, "Yun Shang, why are you so troubled?"

Although the woman is already twenty-five years old, even many eighteen-year-old girls in Cloud City are ashamed of her tearable skin and such delicate hands.

Yun Sheng glanced at the city lord lightly, turned his head and picked up a chess piece, and said expressionlessly, "Dad, we can discuss other things, but this matter is definitely not discussed!"

When Yun Hua heard her words, the figure of the white-clothed sword resurfaced in his mind.

Fifteen years ago, Yun Hua had just taken over the position of the city lord of Cloud City from his father, and the man in white with a sword appeared in Cloud City.

At that time, although Yunhua was already a father, he had not lost the madness of his youth last year, and he was proud of his chess strength in the entire Cloud City, so he delusionally wanted to play a game with Li Qixian without knowing whether he was alive or dead.

Li Qixian naturally did not refuse, but he made a request, if he won, then he would ask for a treasure in the treasury of the Yunhua City Lord's Mansion, and if he lost, he would give his sword to Yunhua as a bet.

The Yun family is the largest family in Cloud City, and there are countless treasures in the treasury, even if it is one less, he will not be too distressed, so he agreed to this game.

But Yun Hua shouldn't have let Yun Shang, who was only ten years old at the time, watch the chess from the sidelines.

Fifteen years ago, Li Qixian was so young and graceful, and it only took a game of chess to completely capture Xiao Yunsheng's heart.

Needless to say, the result of the chess game that year was needless to say, less than a hundred hands Yunhua gave up and admitted defeat, and Li Qixian also got his wish and picked up an ancient heirloom that had been passed down by the Yun family for countless generations from the treasury of the city lord's mansion.

On the occasion of parting, Li Qixian once said a word to Yunhua.

"The battle of chess games is never about temporary gains and losses, I have left you a chance, if you continue to play, you have a chance in that game. ”

The speaker is unintentional, the listener is intentional, but this listener is not the city lord Yunhua, but the ten-year-old Yunshang beside him.

Since then, Yun Sheng has been completely devoted to this peerless man, and has never changed in the slightest in the past fifteen years, and even continued to work hard to surpass Yun Hua and become the strongest chess master in Cloud City.

Over the years, Yunshang has been studying this game of less than 100 hands all the time, trying to find a way to break the game, but he has always hit a wall. Of course, Yunhua can't let her daughter pin her whole life on an ethereal man, even if this man is peerless.

After countless persuasions, Yunshang was finally willing to contact the men in the outside world, but every time she compared them to the white-clothed sword-fighting figure, she no longer had any thoughts in her heart.

In Yunshang's opinion, even if she can't marry Li Qixian, her husband must be the one who can solve this chess game!

The maidservant girl in the pavilion pointed at Zhou Ping, attached to Yunsheng's ear and whispered, "That man has been standing motionless in front of the chess game for half an hour, miss, do you think he has a chance to solve the chess game?"

Yun Sheng looked in the direction of the maid's finger and shook her head slightly.

"It's only been half an hour, and I've been solving this chess game for half my life......"

Before Zhou Ping, there were also people who pretended to solve chess for a long time in front of the chess game, wanting to attract Yunshang's attention, but these troublemakers were all recognized by Yunshang and sent someone to drive them away.

Yunshang has been immersed in chess for more than ten years, and she can see at a glance whether someone is really solving chess, so although she doesn't expect Zhou Ping to be able to solve the chess game in the world, she also began to pay attention to this young man, after all, in the face of such a complex chess game, she can still focus on it for half an hour, which is enough to show that this person is definitely not a mediocre person.

Zhou Ping's mentality is much more peaceful, although he has never known Li Qixian, but whether it is because of Chen Bi'an or the Zhou Ping twenty years ago, he will definitely compete with this legendary immortal in the future!

Moreover, a long time ago, Zhou Ping suspected that Li Qixian was the powerhouse of the three realms of initiates that he saw in the illusion of the chess game, and he and he were both the most amazing people in the world, and with an existence like them, it would be natural that there would be a collision in the future.

This chess game was regarded by Zhou Ping as the beginning of his rivalry with Li Qixian, although Zhou Ping knew that there was a big gap between him and Li Qixian in terms of both the way of cultivating immortals and the way of chess, but fortunately, he was still young and full of never-say-die enthusiasm......

"This kid is kind of funny. Yun Hua looked at Zhou Ping, who was standing in front of the chess game, and muttered, "I hope you can really solve this chess game." ”

Of course, Zhou Ping has no way of knowing everything in the hearts of the father and daughter, and he is now just devoting himself to cracking the chess game.

Although Zhou Ping is now unable to assist himself through the Heaven and Earth Chess Game due to the lack of Yin Qi in his body, he is confident that he can solve this chess game through his pure chess strength! After all, if he can't even solve this kind of chess game, how can he say that he can play with Li Qixian at the chess table?

As time passed, Zhou Ping tried countless ways to solve the chess, but he couldn't see any clues from the one hundred and three hands in this chess game.

From the point of view of the chess game, Li Qixian's black chess occupies three corners, and the chess style is extremely fierce, and he began to raise the pieces at the beginning of the hundred hands, and the white characters have no chance of turning the game at all.

"What is the problem?" At this time, Rao is Zhou Ping couldn't help but begin to doubt his chess attainments.

Suddenly, he suddenly thought of a possibility, could it be that the problem did not appear in this hundred and three hands, but ...... Exist in the follow-up fall!

As long as black does not want to give up the advantage he has built for nothing, then he must choose to fight against white! And the more he fights, the more likely it is that black's original advantage will be vulnerable!

Zhou Ping immediately began to deduce the follow-up chess game in his mind, this kind of deduction must not only think about one chess move, but constantly change his response measures according to the opponent's various choices, so the amount of calculation in this is absolutely terrifying!

However, what kind of person is Zhou Ping, he is the existence of creating a new way of yin and yang in heaven and earth! Deducing the chess game is not easy for him.

At this time, the stars were hanging high in the night sky, and nearly six hours had passed before Zhou Pingchu arrived at the chess game, and there was no one on the entire street except for the clouds and personal maids in the pavilion.

"Miss, why don't we go back and rest first. The maid persuaded with some distress, "Even if you are optimistic about him, he will not be able to solve the chess game overnight, so your body will not be able to bear it, Miss." ”

Yun Sheng nodded slightly when she heard this, got up and moved, although she felt that Zhou Ping in front of the chess game was very unusual, but as the maid said, solving this kind of chess game is not something that can be completed overnight, and there is no need for her to be too anxious.

Just as Yunshang was about to leave, Zhou Ping, who was in front of the chess game, suddenly began to laugh out loud.

"Li Qixian, Li Qixian! It really deserves to be called Chang'an Chess!" Zhou Ping sat on the ground with a puff, let out a long breath and said with a smile: "I'll just say, how can you let people win you!"

Zhou Ping's behavior made Yun Shang, who was about to leave, frown slightly, she felt that Zhou Ping was seeing her leaving, so she pretended to be crazy here to get her attention.

"Miss, this ......" The maid looked at Zhou Ping, who was sitting on the ground and seemed to be smiling, held Yunsheng's hand tightly, and asked softly, "What's wrong with him?"

Yun Sheng frowned tightly and said, "Don't worry about him, it's just a prodigal who is pretending to be mysterious, let's go back and rest!"

"Miss Yunshang, I'm afraid it's not good for you to say that!" Zhou Ping turned his head, looked at Yunshang with deep eyes, and said with a smile, "How do you know that I haven't solved the dead game of this white chess?"

Yun Sheng was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then pulled the maid to Zhou Ping's side, frowned and asked, "You really solved the dead game of this white chess?"

Zhou Ping pondered for a while and replied, "Strictly speaking, it is indeed the end of the dead. ”

"I hope you don't lie to me, my father is the city lord of Cloud City, if you lie to me, he will definitely clean you up!" Yun Sheng said pretending to be serious.

Zhou Ping smiled, pointed to the chessboard in her pavilion and said, "Whether it's a lie to you or not, you and I will know as soon as we try it." ”

The two came to the pavilion, and seeing Zhou Ping recovering the chess game at a very fast speed, Yunshang couldn't help but look up to him by a point.

The maid returned to the mansion at the signal of Yunshang to invite the city lord to come, and in the process of the maid's departure, Yunshang has been observing Zhou Ping's reaction, if he is really a half-hanger, he dares to tease the city lord and will definitely not be able to eat and walk around, but the young man in front of him did not have the slightest panic, but did not hesitate to lift the child and fell on the chessboard.

Yunshang finally put away all the contempt before and began to accompany Zhou Ping seriously to solve chess.

All the chess moves have been repeated in Zhou Ping's mind thousands of times, and all he has to do now is to present them one by one on the chessboard.
