Chapter 124: Chess Players, Chessboards, Chess Pieces
Flipping over the board is one action, but it expresses two meanings.
"You asked me who could win, and I said you must not win, you think I'm being reckless, so what does the city lord of Murong think now?"
The table was shattered and broken, and the smell of smoke and dust coming from outside the house was diluted and suppressed by the aura scattered in the house, and the air inside the room smelled exceptionally fresh and beautiful.
The three men stood separately.
"If you can flip the chessboard in front of you, how can you flip the chessboard outside?"
The smile on Murong Yingjie's face disappeared, and his pale face gradually turned cold.
This is the truth and there is no way to refute it.
Li Xiu looked out the window, the golden sunlight shone on the deserted garden, reflecting a gentle appearance, and the weeds fell with golden light.
The sun rose for a long time.
The autumn breeze is cool.
The meaning is strong.
He stretched out his finger and pointed to the broken table at his feet, and said seriously, "At least I overturned this chessboard." ”
Murong Yingjie took two steps forward and stepped on the cracked table, with a slight force on the soles of his feet, the two halves of the table turned into powder, and he couldn't see any shape.
His awe-inspiring gaze shot at Li Xiu's face, and he said coldly, "But what's the use of that?"
"It works!"
Li Xiu said word by word.
"Chen Zhimo is very famous, and he has a lot of deeds, especially the words he said when he killed Bailiqi a few days ago are also very popular in the rivers and lakes. ”
Murong Yingjie said lightly.
Thousands of people died outside the house, all of them were monks of the Three Realms and below, the so-called purges inside and outside should be like this, even if there are many people standing outside the door, it is useless, and the final victory or defeat depends on the victory or defeat of these five realms in the house.
"I heard that there was only one person in Xuelou, have you ever wondered why?"
Hearing that hundreds of people came to Xuelou, he said that only one came, and he was naturally referring to the Five Realms Grandmaster.
That is, Li Si.
Listening to Xuelou's status in the rivers and lakes is equivalent to that of Gusu City, and it is the largest intelligence organization and killer organization in the Tang Dynasty.
It can be said that the strength of Tingxue Tower is on par with Gusu City.
If you listen to Xuelou really pouring out of the nest, the situation in Gusu City can be solved with a snap of your fingers.
At the moment, there is only one person here, and what is the inside story is very exquisite.
"Listening to Xuelou, I have to do a lot of things, and I can't pull away. ”
Li Xiu replied, his face calm, as if that was the case.
Murong Yingjie looked at him and stood in the study for a long time without speaking.
The old sword god sat on the side of the dry well in the side courtyard, a sword stuck in the ground in front of him, without any movement, as if he was alone outside the world.
There are many people walking and standing in Gusu City, and everyone has a heart on their faces, and everyone knows that the sky will change after today, which is related to the future direction of Gusu City.
The sun rises and sets, and usually every day passes very quickly, but today is very slow, and I haven't drunk a bowl of wine in front of me for several sips, and I don't know how many times I looked up at Murong Mansion.
But the sun had just risen, and it wasn't even noon.
Today passed slowly, and many people crouched in their chairs and were irritable.
But there were not many people in front of Murong Mansion, except for hundreds of Qingyi, there were only a few dozen descendants of the Murong family who followed Murong Qiu.
Nie Yuan and the other wandering monks didn't know where they went.
Murong Yingjie said: "Blindly being strong now will only make me look down on you. ”
In his opinion, Li Xiu's words were defending Tingxue Lou and making excuses for his own lack of support.
Gusu City is divided into life and death, this is not like the people who listened to the Snow House in Saibei before they didn't have time to rush over, this invitation was delivered a month in advance, even if the people who listened to the Snow Tower didn't have time to rush to the Liangkai River and the Meridian Valley, but there was no problem in rushing to Gusu City.
Now it didn't come.
Li Xiu looked out the window and said lightly: "I will never be strong, just like you will always think that you can kill me, but I am still alive." ”
Murong Yingjie was silent, not just because of this sentence, because he thought of one thing, that is, Li Xiu would not lie and disdain to lie.
That being the case, he said that if he heard that Xuelou had something to do, then he must have something to do.
"I'm curious about what could be more important than what's right in front of me. ”
Murong Yingjie asked curiously.
Li Xiu pointed to the ground, and then said: "I overturned a chessboard, there is a chessboard outside, that chessboard is too far away, I can't overturn, but I can try to play chess with him." ”
"You don't even know who you're playing chess with, how are you going to play it?"
Murong Yingjie said with a smile, that smile looked a little sarcastic.
There is no one on the other side, how can you play chess?
Li Xiu suddenly sighed with emotion.
"No wonder you don't know how to play chess. ”
"Playing chess is like a game of life and death, the purpose of both sides is the same, that is, they both want to kill each other, as long as they figure this out, then it is easy to do things, the head of the Murong family, the chessboard is very large, just look at one corner, it will lose the big dragon." ”
Li Xiu's eyes became sharp in an instant, staring at his pale face tightly, and said in a cold voice.
Murong Yingjie's brows furrowed, and his pale face became like snow.
"The chess player wants to kill me, why don't I want to kill him?"
Li Xiu walked to the window and stood down, holding a teacup behind him with one hand behind him, and the other hand was holding a teacup, and there seemed to be endless sharpness in his eyes that wanted to shoot.
"Since he has laid this game, how can he be called a qualified opponent if he does not respond. ”
His voice was very faint, indifferent and palpitating.
Even Murong Yingjie subconsciously clenched his fists, sometimes what makes people feel frightened is not only the absolute strength, but the surging dark tide hidden under the calm lake.
"There's something I want to know. ”
Murong Yingjie asked.
Li Xiu didn't speak, waiting for the following.
"Your Highness is a smart person, so you naturally know that there must be some connection between my back, Changlin Yin Cao, and the Snow Plain, but no matter how smart you are, it is impossible for you to know who the person behind you is, so I'm curious how you plan to end up?"
I don't know who is behind the game of chess, so naturally there is no way to target.
Hiding behind the scenes and standing in front of the stage are not the same thing after all.
Hearing this, Li Xiu didn't rush to answer, but asked rhetorically, "What does City Lord Murong think is the most important thing in playing chess?"
"Computing power?"
Li Xiu shook his head and said softly: "It's a chess piece!"
This has already been said very obviously, even a stupid person can understand the sound of the strings, not to mention that Murong Yingjie is an extremely smart person, otherwise it would be impossible to be the city lord, let alone make Li Xiu so jealous.
Since the person behind the curtain didn't want to show up, he forced him to show up.
How to force?
Kill all his chess pieces, and the person who plays chess will naturally come out.
The people who listened to Xuekou did not come to Gusu City, and what they did was to kill people.
