Chapter 967: Watching Chess
Following.
Early morning.
At the foot of Rotten Ke Mountain.
The faint Sanskrit sound is like a trickle, flowing down from the dry mountain, giving this stone mountain in the middle of the sea of sand a cool meaning like green trees.
"Today is the first day of watching chess, and when the senior brother on the mountain rings the bell, I will lead you donors up the mountain to watch chess. ”
At the entrance of the stone mountain, the little monk often smiled and introduced today's itinerary to the chess players in front of him.
"After going up the mountain, you must remember not to whisper, if there is any confusion, you can now say it The little monk will help you answer, if you can't answer, the little monk will go to the abbot master for advice. ”
He added.
"Can Little Master often go up the mountain to observe this Heavenly Dao endgame?"
Among the chess players, a young man with red hair looked at Chang and asked with a smile.
"You're Yi Haoyan from the Flame Pavilion, Lord Yi, right?"
Chang Xiao looked at the red-haired young man and asked with a respectful smile.
"Little Master has a good memory, you were the one who brought me to the island in the first place. ”
Yi Haoyan also smiled and nodded.
"Master Yi doesn't know, the first precept of the monks of my Rotten Ke Temple is not to refer to the endgame of the Heavenly Dao. ”
Chang Xiao replied seriously.
"The host can't do it either?"
Yi Haoyan asked again.
"No, I can't. ”
Chang Xiao smiled and shook his head with a clear smile.
"But I heard that the people who fell on behalf of the heavens are all monks in the courtyard. ”
Yi Haoyan said curiously.
The monk in his mouth refers to the person who sits opposite the chess master when he solves the endgame of the Heavenly Dao.
"The three senior brothers who fell on behalf of Tianluozi were all blind due to illness when they were young, and they may not even have seen chess pieces. ”
Chang Xiao still answered very seriously.
"I see, it's Yi's rudeness. ”
Yi Haoyan arched his hand a little apologetically.
"Except for the little monk, your three senior brothers, can anyone else fall for the sky?"
Then another voice asked.
"It's Yan Yu of the Cangyun Sect, Miss Yan, right?"
Chang Le asked with a smile.
"Hmm. ”
Yan Yu nodded.
Hearing the name Yan Yu, Xu Youyou, who had not spoken much in the crowd, suddenly raised his eyes and looked over.
Although the look on her face has subsided a lot, whether it is her demeanor or appearance, she is undoubtedly the little girl she met in the small tea shop.
"You know him. ”
Dongfang Yu on the side asked in a low voice.
"Played a game of chess. ”
Xu Youyou nodded.
"The three senior brothers who are born blind are only one of them, and they must practice in the temple for at least ten years before they can sense the sky and fall on behalf of the sky, and there is no one else in my temple who can sense the sky and fall on behalf of the sky. ”
At this time, the voice of the little monk drew the attention of the two back again.
And after listening to Chang Xiao's answer, Yan Yu fell silent.
"In the lower rainbow light brake Zan Hongwen, there is a question I want to ask the little master. ”
A young man with an elegant appearance and an extraordinary body walked out at this time.
Seeing that it was Zan Hongwen who stood up, the chess players present also looked at each other, wanting to see what the chess player who ranked first on the bad list wanted to ask.
"Lord Zan Shi is polite, he doesn't dare to ask for advice, and if he asks about chess, the little monk doesn't dare to do it. ”
Chang Xiao also showed some sincere fear at this time.
Zan Hongwen just smiled when he heard this, and didn't say much, and then looked at the little monk Chang Xiao very curiously:
"I heard that above these three Heavenly Dao endgames, there was an empty chessboard at the beginning, and the chess pieces were all filled in one by one by my ancestors in the ten states, which led to the so-called Heavenly Dao endgame later.
"So this person who plays against the heavens should be our ancient and modern chess masters in the ten states to be precise.
"But there are so many chess players in the ten states of ancient and modern times who come to break the game, but there are very few who can leave chess pieces on the chessboard.
"So I want to ask the little master, what kind of chess moves will be left on the chessboard, and who will decide whether the chess pieces can stay on the chessboard?"
When he said this, Zan Hongwen's face was full of deep confusion.
It can be seen that the question he just asked has puzzled him for a long time.
In the same way, chess masters, including Xu Youyou, are also very interested in this issue, after all, they can keep their chess on the board, which is the biggest praise for every chess player in the ten states.
So everyone looked at the little monk in front of them in unison.
"I've asked a few of my senior brothers about this question. ”
After hearing this question, the little monk rarely restrained the smile on his face.
After a moment of thought, he replied:
"But a few senior brothers only told me that every move that can stay on the chessboard is the most perfect move in the world. ”
"Who will judge if this is the most perfect step in the world?"
Zan Hongwen asked.
"I asked that question as well. ”
The little monk smiled bitterly.
"How did he answer?"
The senior brother said, but any chess master who has seen this game of chess will not have such doubts. ”
The little monk replied very seriously.
Zan Hongwen also smiled bitterly and shook his head when he heard this.
Obviously, he was not satisfied with this answer, but at the same time, he wanted to observe the endgame of the Heavenly Dao as soon as possible, and he became more anxious.
"Little girl, Wu Lu of Shadow Moon Valley, also has a question for the little master. ”
At this time, a girl in a green shirt with a dusty temperament walked out.
"It's okay to ask. ”
The little monk folded his hands and nodded.
"In this Heavenly Dao endgame, if I can have a chess piece left on the chessboard, will I be able to get the legendary Heavenly Dao gift regardless of whether I win or lose in the end?"
Wu Lu asked.
"It stands to reason that it is. ”
Chang Xiao's little monk nodded seriously.
In fact, among the ten-state chess masters, there has always been a saying that they can win. Just like the chess saints Su Lingyun and Zhang Tianxue back then, they only dropped one or two sons on the chessboard, and there was no one who really played a whole game of chess for 10,000 years.
However, the little monk immediately changed his words and added:
"However, I have heard from my brothers that the way of heaven is impermanent, and the things given are also impermanent, and some people find gifts when they go down the mountain, for example, there was a chess player in his twilight years who returned to his youth after falling a word, but there are also people who only find out about his gift before they die, and some people may not even be able to find its gift in their lifetime, which is not a certainty. ”
A sentence about the impermanence of the Heavenly Dao once again aroused everyone's curiosity about this Heavenly Dao endgame.
Next, the remaining chess masters also asked the monk some questions one after another, and most of these questions were also related to the Heavenly Dao endgame.
"Dongfang donor, Xu donor, do you two have any questions to ask?"
Just after no one asked, the little monk looked at Dongfang Yu and Xu Youyou, who had never spoken at the back of the crowd.
And this sound also made everyone turn their attention to the two of them.
"I ...... I didn't. ”
Xu Youyou was stunned at first, and then shook his head.
"Neither did I. ”
Dongfang Yu followed.
"Oh well. ”
Chang Le nodded, with a little regret on his face, he actually wanted to take this opportunity to listen to the opinion of the disciple of the sword god Li Yunsheng on this Heavenly Dao endgame.
"When ——"
At this moment, the bell on the stone mountain suddenly rang.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please come with me up the mountain. ”
Hearing this bell, the little monk Changle immediately said to the chess masters with an awe-inspiring expression.
However, the chess players below did not move, but looked at Xu Youyou and Dongfang Yu one after another.
"Since Miss Yoyo is a disciple of Mr. Yunsheng, she should be the first to go up the mountain. ”
When Dongfang Yu and Xu Youyou were confused, Hongguang Zan Hongwen suddenly raised his hand and made a gesture of please.
"No, you really don't have to be so polite......"
Xu Youyou's cheeks flushed when he heard this, and he waved his hand repeatedly.
"Miss Yoyo, don't shirk, Mr. Yunsheng is kind to Shizhou, since you are his disciple, we should be like this. ”
The Shadow Moon Valley Wu Green also took a step back and made a gesture of please.
The rest of the chess players echoed when they heard this, that is, although Yan Yu was unhappy, he just lowered his head and took a step to the side without saying a word.
"Let's go, or it'll be endless. ”
Dongfang Yu hooked Xu Youyou's hand and pulled her directly towards the mountain.
......
In an attic at the foot of Mt. Rotten Ke.
"Miss Frost, can Mr. Yunsheng come?"
The host, Chang Le, looked at Mu Ningshuang with a little hope.
"I'm sorry, but I can't give you a letter about this. ”
Mu Ningshuang also shook his head.
"We all wanted him to come, but in the past six years, he hasn't seen us once, except for the occasional communication with divine thoughts. ”
Chen Tai'a, who was leaning against the window, was also depressed.
"Alas......"
The old monk Changle let out a long sigh when he heard this.
"In the past six years, we have sent out all the disciples we can send out, but we have not found any trace of Mr. Taibai. ”
He shook his head with a wry smile.
"Isn't your rotten chess club only open once every three years?"
Dongfang Li asked curiously when she heard this.
"As long as Mr. Taibai is willing to come, the gate of my Langke Temple will be open at any time...... But he didn't come after all. ”
Monk Changle looked helpless.
"In the past six years, Yoyo has often played chess with Taibai in his dreams, and his chess strength has improved at an extraordinary speed. ”
This is Mu Ningshuang opening his mouth again.
"Really?"
The old monk Changle was overjoyed when he heard this.
"Hmm. ”
Mu Ningshuang nodded.
"She hasn't been playing chess in the realm of fantasy since six years ago, and that's because of that. ”
She then added.
"In this way, maybe this is Mr. Taibai's arrangement, but it is not necessarily!"
The originally gloomy face of the old monk Changle completely brightened up this time.
"Boom, boom—"
And at this moment, a muffled thunder suddenly exploded.
A palpitating force, followed by gusts of wind blowing into the attic.
"It's time to come. ”
Xiao Che, who had not spoken, came to the window at this time.
"This time, if nothing happens, all the Moro in the ten states will be here in person. ”
Mrs. Chen also looked out the window at this time.
I saw that the evil clouds on the lake around the wild fox island were rolling, and the originally blue water in the lake gradually began to glow red.
"Rest assured, my Wild Fox Island Rotten Ke Temple is not something that these demons can touch. ”
The old monk Changle smiled at everyone with a calm face at this time.
After speaking, he saw the Zen staff in his hand lightly touch the ground, and the golden ripples then spread out like ripples.
In just a moment, this ripple spread throughout the island, and then like a golden light curtain, the entire island was enveloped in it, completely isolating the surging evil clouds and blood waves outside the island.
